Special to THE SuN.
DOVER. Del, Jan. 1.-The records Of
the lral branch Of the Farmers Bank of
Delaware, will show that Col. Ezekiel T,
Cooper. .of"rhe Milford Herald" drew M
wards of$l5,OW from the First National
al Bank, Of Dover, without ever having
deposited any considerable part Of that
sun, with that institution. Tie records
Of the Fist National Bank. Of Dover. will
show that Col. Coper's balance never
exceeded few hundred dollars, and
that it was usually less than fifty dollars.
The checks drawn upon the First Ma
tional Bank by Col Cooper, were cashed
by the defaulting teller, William n. Boggs
and by an arrangement with that man
no record Of the transactions ever ap.
ppawd ON the books Of the First National
Bank
The books Of the Farmers Bank, how
ever are available and by comparisons
with those Of the First National Bank.
which are also close at hand, it will be
discovered that Col. Copper frequently
issued checks for sums many times more
than his balance, and that no records Of
them was made on the books "f the bank
by Teller Boggs.
! The interest Of the Farmers Bank in
thpa. transactions must not M misnn-
dprstoOd.
! 1t is doubtless through ignorance of
the methods Of exchange between banks,
that the statement has been Oft.repeated
that the Farmers Bank cashed the checks
aygrcgating the large sum Of money,
which has figured SO prominently in all
of the statements referring to the rob-
berry Of the FIRST National
Bank. The Farmers Bank never
cashcd Il single one OF the checks
referred to. Those checks and all Of
them came to the Farmers Bank in reg
ular. daily remittance letters from its
CORE .pondcnts, chiefly Philadelphia
These rcmi,tanrcs were credited, in the
books of the Farmers Bank to the bank
sending them. They We're then charged
to- the First National Bank, where they
were payable.
William \. Euggs certified to the Far
mrts Bank that Col. Co"per's checks
were good when he. B"ggSy knew
they were not.
The attaches of the Farmers Bank will
recall hat none OF Col. toopers large
checks were sent to the First National
Bank in tIIc ordinary routine way. On
tie contrary Il special inquiry waS made
Of Teller Euggs rs {" whether or not the
checks in question were good" and
they could not - beyond his invatiabIc
assurance hat they were good
Now that Cot. Cooper has announced
his intimate acquaintance with the
whereabouts oi William \. Boggs on the

ORIENTAL ADVICES.
Over Six Hundred Houses De-
stroyed by Fire in Japan.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1.-THE
steamship Peru, which arrived last
night from Oklahoma and Hongkong
via Honolulu, made a slow trip, and
did not bring much Oriental news.
Up to December 18th nine Russian
men-of-war. including the Rurik, Ad-
miral Nahkimoff, Pamiat Azova ana
Dimitri Donskoi, had left Nagasad for
unknown destinations. 1t is generally
believed that large portion of the
fleet has proceeded to Port Arthur and
the remainder to Corean waters.
The "Yomiuri' states that the Japa-
nese Government received formal no.
tice recently from the Russian Govern
1nent to the effect that the latter pro-
posed to borrow Port Arthur and Tai
Lien Wan from China.
The "Chuwo" states that the Japa-
nese Government has replied to the
Russian Government to the effect that
Japan has no objection to her borrow
ing the two ports.
Active preparations are reported to
be progressing among Japanese war
ships at Yokosuta. where seventeen
men-of-war are at anchor. including
the Fuji, Yashima, Naniwa, Hashidate
and ltSuSkln1a.
According to a dispatch received in

BACK FROM KLONDIKE.
Twenty-Five Persons Arrive From
Dawson ON the Corona.

SEATTLE, Jan. 17-Twenty-two per-
sons arrived here tonight from Daw-
son City on the steamer Corona, bring
ing with them a small amount of gold
dust and drafts on the North American
Trading and Transportation Company
and the Alaska Commercial Company
amounting to between SS00,000 ana
81 ,00OC00 In the party was one wo-
man. She is the second woman to come
out this winter.
The amounts of drafts brought down
represents the proceeds of sales of
claims to the Cudahy- -Healy Yukon and
Klondike Mining Company, and private
parties. The large individual amounts
were brought by the following: d.
S125, ,000; Leonard Sedgwick, 500, 900;
Andrew Oleson, $120,000; T. E. Brencer,
5000; Joe Brand, $4,000.
In reference to the food situation at
Dawson, to-night's arrivals corroborate
previous reports that while food is
scarce, there will be no starvation. They
consider that it Will be impossible 10
get a relief expedition in at this season
of the year. Relief expeditions can
easily reach the foot of Lake Lebargev
but trouble will begin when the Yukon
River is reached. The Yukon is filled
from shore to shore with great ice
ridges from ten to twenty feet high,
the ice being thrown up in great blocks
and standing in all sorts of angles.
Men with dogs can make their way by
hugging the shore, but no amount ot
supplies can be carried with dog teams.
A roadway can be cut through these
ice ridges, but it would require a large
amount of money, AID it is doubtful
if the work can be completed before
the ice moves out of the river in the
spring.
The proposed use of reindeer in this
country is considered entirely impracti-
cable.
Heavy snow storms have occurred
this week on the Chilcoot Pass, and
travel has been practically impossible
for days at time.

HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.
A Young Man Murders His Be

PENSACOLA FTa.), Jan. 17.-One of
the most horrible tragedies that has
ever occurred in this vicinity was
brought to light to-day
Last Friday night Herbert Seeley and
Miss Alice Curovo of Warrington at
tended a party at Millview, and were
among the gayest of all the guests.
Dancing was kept up until after mid
night, and about 2 a. m. the young
couple left in a buggy to return home
Miss Curovo and her escort did not ap-
pear at Warrington Saturday, but no
alarm was felt by the family, as 1t
was supposed that she had remained
over with a relative who resides near
Millview.
This morning, however, a searching
party was organized. and near bridge
a few miles from Miilview, the horse,
attached to the vehicle, was found tied
to a tree. A few yards farther away
in a clump of trees the bodies of the
two young people were found, both
dead. The young lady had been killed
by pistol ball which entered her head,
and the young man had been killed by
a pistol ball, which had shattered his
skull
After viewing the bodies and sur
roundings, the Coroner's jury was con-
vinced that the young man had forci-
bly, outraged the young lady and then
killed her, and subsequently committed
suicide.
1t is said they were engaged to be
married. and so far as is known there
was no opposition to the marriage.

Calling Into Question the General Utility Of
That Body PoIitic.
Say the System Has Out1ived It's
Usefulness, and That It's Con-
tinuance is Only a Needless
Burden on the Taxpayers of
the Commonwealth-Ju Not
Privileged to Comment Upon
Persons Who Have Not Been
Indicted.

SAN BERNARDINO, Jan. IL
Judges Oster and Campbell of the SUI
perior Court to-day delivered remark
able charge to the Grand Jury just
impaneled, which calls into question the
general utility of that function Of the
body polite. 1t reads in part as fol-
lows:
Gentlemen of the Grand Jury: The
Constitution of the State of California
requires that the Grand Jury shall be
drawn and summoned at least once
year in each county. In these manda-
tory provisions lies only the necessity
known to us for calling you together at
all. We believe the sentiment to be
very general in this State that the
present Grand Jury system has out
lived its usefulness, and that its con-
tinuance is only a needless burden on
the taxpayers of the commonwealth.
mo doubt it has in the past per-
formed valuable functions in the ad-
ministration of criminal law, but this
consideration appeals rather TO the
antiquarian and student of political
history than to the property owner
seeking relief from heavy taxation.
These same functions can now be per-
formed with less expense, greater eff
ciency and more in accordance with the
spirit Of our institutions by the District
Attorney, aided by the examining mag
istrate and the machinery of modern
ized criminal jurisprudence already eS-
tablished.
Secrecy and divided responsibility
are cardinal characteristics of the
Grand Jury system as contradistin-
guished from the modern mode of rSsti-
tuting criminal proceedings, and while
there may possibly arise times in
which the ordinary channels through
which justice flows become corrupted,
or powerful combinations of criminals
are to be ferreted out, and when, there
fore, this secrecy and divided response
bility may give the Grand Jury system
advantage over simpler and more pub
lie mode of instituting criminal pro-
ceedings, this possibility perhaps con-
stitutes argument for the retention of
the Grand Jury as the agency of the
court to be invoked by it only when, in
its opinion, one of the extraordinary
conditions suggested may require, but
it is no argument for the continuance
of the present law necessitating the
calling of Grand Jury every year.
You are cautioned that if you shall
comment upon any person or official
who has not been indicted by you your
comments shall not be deemed to be
privileged; that is to say, you will be
responsible for any comment made in
such report and the mere fact that you
made it in your official capacity as
Grand Jurors will not protect you"

ACCIDENT IN A TUNNEL.
One Man Killed and Another
Probably Fatally Injured.

WILLIAMS (Ariz.), Jan. 11.-An ac-
cident took place at the F'airview tun-
mel, about nine miles west of here on
the Santa Fe road, in which one man
was killed and another probably fatal
ly injured. A number of others had
an almost miraculous escape.
Sparks from the engine of yesterdays s
passenger train No. l ignited the tim
bers in the roof of the tunnel. A gang
of men was quickly dispatched from
this city under Foremen Matthews and
Parker. The men fought the flames all
night and all day to-day. About :
p. M, when the flames were all but
out, the men were alarmed by a loud
crash. In another moment a solid
mass of rock and burning timbers came
falling down. Roadmaster Lyons and
Foreman Matthews We're caught under
the mass of rock and timbers. They
were soon taken out, but Lyons died in
a few minutes, and it is not believed
Matthews will live until morning. No
through trains Will be able to pass
through the tunnel for. several days,
as at this writing it is a sheet of fire
from one end to the other. Passengers
on to-day's trains had to be transferred
around the mountain through the snow.
