SENATOR WILSON'S LAST
The People in Spokane County Don't
Like Some Of His Methods.
DISCOUNTS HISOWN NOTE 30 PER CENT
The Old Council Concludes Its Lab
ors and Turns the Reins OF city
Governments Over 20 the New
OFFICERS.

Yakima county is not the only one
where Senator Wilson is queering him
self before the people and the hornets
nest he recently stirred up at Yakima
City in the postoffice matter is only a
tame affair compared to some of his do.
ings in Spokane. The Review says that
no recent act Of man in high official
station has 30 startled the public as Sem
ator Wilson's settlement of his debt to
the broken Citizens National bank of
Spokane. Mr.. Wilson owed that trust
nearly 10000. 1t was an honest, I'M
disputed obligation, but he has been per
mitted to "compromise" it for less than
10 cents on the dollar.
The circumstances, as they appear Of
record, may be briefly told. Mr.. Wilson
was one of the organizers OF the Citizens
National. For years he or his brother
drew fat salaries from the bank. While
1t was yet solvent, he borrowed $4,000 on
his note. and when the bank closed its
doors in 1894, that note remained I'M
paid.
1t does not appear that he made any
effort to pay off the obligation in install
mente, although he has been the constant
recipient OF a handsome salary from the
government, and from that source alone
has received more than $25 600 since the
bank closed its doors
When the bank failed Senator Wilson
employed his political influence to name
. receiver, and by preconceived arrange
ment, his brother Henry l.. Wilson took
charge of the trust, drew the salary, and
became the real receiver of the trust.
II there has been great deal of this
sort OF work, 1t can be readily understood
why the trust has only paid the deposit
tors 10 cents on the dollar. The bank
settles with it's debtors at 10 cents on the
dollar, and necessarily it cannot pay its
depositors much more than 10 cents on
the dollar. The Wilson's were whiting
down the assets on one end by drawing
q large salary from the trust, and at the
other end by paying Senator Wilson e
note at less than 10 cents on the dollar
A broken bank would have to be VERT.
able mine Of gold to endure that sort Of
manipulation and find 100 cents on the
dollar for it's depositors.
LATER.-Judge Prather has reversed
his order allowing the above settlement
and gives as his reason for vacating the
previous order were that he came to the
conclusion the latter order was inadvert
emily made, that the practice heretofore
existing of granting orders as matter o.
course in cases of this sort was wrong
practice. and that there should he hear
ing ordered in those cases hereafter.
Mr.. Wilson expects to 90 back to the
United States Senate when his present
term expires and he would like the voters
IN Yakima and Spokane counties to send
men to the state legislature who will sup.
port him there, but he will find that the
people are watching him and are becom.

actions,

SENSATION IN THE HOFF CASE.
ALLEGED CONFESSION OF MRS.
CLUTE'S MURDERER.
Hof Denies That He Has Made Any
Confession-Last of the Twelve
Jurors Secured.
Especial to The Herald.)

San francisco, March 1.-THE trial of
Albert Hoff, charged with the murder
of Mrs. Mary Clute in this city last
December, has produced a scandal
which involves the honor OF Attorney
benjamin w. Mcintosh, of the counsel
for the defense. 1t is claimed that he
has endeavOred to sell for $4,000 what
is purported to be a written confession
by Hoff. wherein he states that he had
criminally assaulted and then murdered
the unfortunate victim of the Guerrero
street assassination.
Hoff was wildly indignant when he
learned that Mcintosh was trying to
sell a confession alleged to have been
written by him, and declared that he
had made no confession to any living
man, and that if his attorneys had pro-
duced any alleged confession, it was
bogus.
Wher; Judge Cook opened court this
morning at 10 O'Clock there was quite a
crowd in attendance, as a scene was
expected.
Judge Cook addressed the jury be-
fore ordering counsel to proceed. He
said that a complication had arisen
since the last adjournment of court
An article had been published in one
of the newspapers which, if it had
reached any of the jurors, might have
an effect upon his mind, and he had,
therefore, decided to request the district
attorney to investigate the affair. He
instructed the accepted jurors and all
talesmen, TO retire from the court room
for five minutes.
Attorney Mcintosh addressed the
court and said that as senior counsel in
the case he wished to state that he
deemed the action of the court very
proper and that he would do all in his
power to assist the district attorney in
his investigation
When the excitement caused by the
unusual incident had subsidized, the
work of securing the two jurors neces-
sary was resumed. After six talesmen
had been examined the two jurors were
secured and the panel being completed
adjournment was taken until tomorrow
morning, when the district attorney will
make the opening statement on behalf
of the prosecution.

CROWNED HEADS AGAINST US.
Emperors of Germany and Austria
Jealous In Spain's Behalf.

London, March 15.-According to in
formation obtained from good sources,
the Austrian emperor is making great
efforts to induce the European powers
to present to the United States the
danger to Europe of their carrying any
further their interference in Cuban af-
fairs.
Emperor William is warmly second
ing the efforts of Emperor Francis
Josef. The American government is
aware of this situation"
The Vienna correspondent of the
Times telegraphs an abstract of an
article in the st. Petersburg Novoe
Vremya, which he thinks deserves at
tention as giving an accurate account
of the views and intentions of at least
three of the great powers"
The correspondent says the article
asserts that the United States are well
aware that in declaring war against
Spain they could not count upon the
approval Of any OF the European pow
ers An it alleges, would sympathize
with Spain. if not actively, certainly
by categorical protests against Presi-

Washington, March IA weeks ne
gotiations closed today by the triumph
ant purchase by the navy department,
in London, of the two fine cruisers built
and building at Elswick, for the Bra
lillian government. Possibly the Off
Gals took more pleasure in closing up
the business in this manner because of
the knowledge that Spanish agents had
been striving to secure these very ships
and that to Spain, it is said, they would
be of much greater value in case of
trouble than to the United States. The
next question is how to get the ships
home, and that has not yet been set
tied, according to the secretary of the
navy.
The United States flag will be hosted
over the new ships within week prob
ably, and just as soon as the crew can
be put aboard the AmaZonas she will
vessel VIII follow at the earliest pos
sibIe moment. The terms of sale are
secret.
Orders have been sent to Commodore
Howell, commanding the European sta
tion, to send a force Of men from the

FOREIGN INTERESTS IN CUBA
CAPITAL DESIRES AMERICAN
INTERVENTION.
Even French Capitalists, In Spite of
Spanish Bonds, Perceive the Value
of American Protectorate.

New York. March IA dispatch to the
Tribune from Havana says:
Events in the United States indicate
that the tests laid down in President Nc
Kinley's message for solving the Cuban
question are soon to be applied. Testi-
mony to the justice of these tests is fur
nished from an important source It
comes from the investment of European
capital. English capitalists have shown
more confidence in the certainty of
American intervention than have some of
the American people. For months they
have been making extensive investments.
Now. it is understood that English syn
dicates control most of the tobacco fac
tories. The consolidation of the railroad
system is under their guidance. Other
enterprises have their direction. All this
has been going during a period when the
shadow of Spanish sovereignty over
Cuba was disappearing. No single circum-
stance would have justified the risk of
collar if il had rested on autonomy TO
bring peace or the hope of Spain being
able to guarantee a stable government.
NOT has there been anything to encourage
the belief that peace would come in the
wake of the conquering arms of the PENN
sUla or that the insurgents would b able
to drive the Spaniards from the island.
The English investors i have taken no
wild cat chances of that kind.
They have gone forward in the face of
what might have proved a temporary
period of anarchy or even a 60-days war.
Their business judgment has been based
on the deliberate conviction that either
the mediation or the Intervention of the
United States was inevitable. 1t was their
belief that Spain would be unable to meet
the conditions on which the president
would be supported by the facts in say
ing that the cause of Intervention had
been removed.
In a less pronounced fay representatives
of the French capitalists. who have re-
Gently been in Cuba. have reached the
same conclusion. This has been in the
face of the French holdings of Spanish
bonds. The German commercial interests
long ago strongly intrenched looked for
ward with complasance mingled with i'm
States should end the struggle. Doubtless
the representatives of these European
countries have reported the situation TO
their respective governments.
