Many OF the officers and crew were sick
OF grip and pneumonia during the trip.

at the Sitka hospital while the Wheeling

in the hospital at Siska.

Commander Sebree was seen on board
the gunboat by Post-Inteiligencer re-
porter yesterday. and gave the following
detailed story of the trip:
1--WE went from Seattle direct to Skag-

us. The Skagway party Was in charge OF
Messrs. Peters and Barnard. stopped a
day at Dyea with CO.. T. NJ. Anderson.

Gen. Anderson. We talked over the pres
ent war. and Cot Anderson expressed the
wish that he would soon be ordered back
TO the states TO take part In the war.
Everything was very quiet at both ports.
and there seems to be little need of longer
keeping the Federal troops there.
Prom Skagway we went 20 Sitka,
where we waited six days for the mail
steamer. On the way to Cook inlet we
stopped at Yakutat and Prince william

people. Several hundred people were re-

HOW CADWALLADER
WRECKED A BANK

NEW YORK, Sept 1s.-An India
napolis, Ind, special to the Herald
says: Charles H. Cadwalfader, the
fugitive Union City Bank cashier, will
soon be within the borders of Indiana.
He will be taken. to Union City, where
he will be tried, and "Jeffersonyille
Prison" may be his future address when
citizens whose bank accounts dwindled
to almost nothing when Cadwallader
left are through with their prosecu-
ton.
The bank OF which Cadwallader was
cashier operated under State laws. He,
through his position, was enabled to
cover up his populations, which
amounted to nearly $4,000. A large
part Of the money went to wheat
gamblers in Chicago, being lost In
speculation. When he left Indiana Cad
wallader had fully $4,000 and some of
this money has been recovered.
1t was almost two years ago when
Cadwallader left Union City. The bank
was obliged to close it's doors and the
losses to the people of the community
were heavy. Many farmers did busi-
ness at the bank and these suffered
considerably as the result Of the opera
lions Of Cadwallader There has been
general rejoicing in and about Union
City since the man was caught.

HANFORD, Sept. 19.-Superior Judge
Justin Jacobs of Kings County died
yesterday In Oakland, where he went
to receive medical attention two
months ago. He was elected to the
bench in 1893 and has served ever since
judge Jacobs had been a sufferer from
diabetes for two years He was a ma
tive Of New York. aged "a years.
His death has been expected for some
time, and some Of the candidates for
his position have been making a Quiet
fight for the position. but as soon as the
news of Jacobs death reached Here the
fight for the Judgeship opened In earn
est There are three candidates for the
position-Dixon L. Phillips, M. l.. Short
and Horace L. Smith. The Republicans
having no available candidate. thew

out that they have given their sunport
to Horace L. Smith, a gold Democrat
Phillips has sent out petition to Cow
ernor Budd for the appointment. and
Shorts friends are at work in his be-
half. The Democratic Central Com
mittee has taken 10 action as to in
dorsing any Of the candidates to the
Governor, nor is 1t likely that any ac-
ton will be taken, as the appointment
will only hold until the election In Mo-
vember. and three of the candidates
mentioned will come out as independ-
ent candidates. The only Republican
attorney in the county is running for
District Attorney, and it is expected
that most Of their strength will go to
Smith. Short is now District Attor-
ney, while Phillips was defeated for
Superior Judge in 1893 by Judge ia
cobs. AS it looks at present the fight
for the appointment by the Governor is
between Short and Phillips, and both
are confident Of the position. The fign,

TRICKED BY SIMMONS

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 1s-Attor-
ney Albert M. Johnson had been
employed through a firm of Stockton
lawyers to sue out a writ of habeas
corpus and serve the papers on Sheriff
Simmons as soon as the latter should
reach Sacramento with his prisoner.
Johnson and Deputy Sheriff Hunters

up on the regular morning train, but
when they reached the depot they
learned that locomotive, drawing only
a tender and carrying two mysterious
passengers, had preceded the Stockton
train, paused at the depot a moment
and then spec eastward. When the
regular train arrived the Deputy Sheriff
found how neatly he had been baffied.
Railroad men here had been instruct
ed to let the engine pass on It's way
without hindrance or unnecessary de-
lay.
