THE PRESIDE RIOT.
Officers Found the Men Who Gave
King a Beating

San Francisco, April 17.-There were
no new developments today in the
trouble which occurred at the Preside
reservation last night. The timely ar
rival of Lieutenant Harris, with a
squad of soldiers and a number of
policemen doubtless prevented more
serious disturbance, possibly murder
The trouble, so far as can be ascer-
tanned, started in the saloon OF Adolph
Rehfeld, when several soldiers who
gathered there commenced a discussion
of the Cuban campaign. One of the
soldiers, Charles l.. King, claimed to
have been in the Cuban campaign and
on being questioned, became badly
mixed up in his story and one of the
fnterrogators called him a liar and
was punched for his remark This
man who represented himself as being
a returned soldier from Cuba received
a terrible drubbing.
Later in the day the investigating
officers discovered the culprits who so
numerically beat King. They are
known as Clark. Shorty and Miller So
far all efforts to discover the perpe-
traitors of the inCendiarism have been
unavailing.

that he can identify the ringleaders.
but is afraid to do so, for fear that the
soldiers Will do him some bodily in

ton and. is now looked upon to make
some startling disclosures.
The Saloonman, the barber and the
tailor, whose shops were destroyed by
the fire will take immediate action to
get compensation for their losses.

GET GOOD WILL OF NATIVES
How Americans May Succeed In the
Philippines.

London. April 1.-THE Daily Chron-
1cle publishes this morning an inter-
view with Lieutenant General Sir An
drew Clarke, agent general for Vic
tor1a and Tasmania. and former gov
ernor and commander-in-chief of the
Straits Settlements, regarding Amer
lean policy in the Philippines
Sir Andrew urges a thorough under
standing of the native character and a
government. so far as possible, by ma
tive institutions. The Americans. in
his opinion, should first discover Aguin-
aldo's sources of supply and then turn
these into agencies of trade for the set
Element of the country. They should
show the natives that this would be a
better outlet for capital and they
would thus be depriving the enemy of
the sinews of war.
After that. he continues. they~shou1d
buy out the religious orders, with the
sanction of the pope. and attach the
secular clergy in some way to the ad
ministration, securing their powerful
influence.
Underlying every government SAYS
Sir Andrew, must be the goodwill Of
the natives; then, with carefully Sc
lected administrators, the United States
would have nothing to fear from the
Filipinos."
The interview was supplemented by 2.
report based upon the experience of
British administrators in the Straits
Settlement.

charges of forgery.
Judge Dickson, who appeared for the
defense, announced that he would waive
a formal reading of the Indictment. He
entered a general demurrer to the first
count, which was making false entries
in a report to the comptroller of the
currency. On the second count, making
false entries in the books of the Utah
National bank, Judge Dickson said Mr..
Stout desired to enter d plea of not
guilty
In presenting his demurrer on the
first count, Judge Dickson said it COW
cred five separate and distinct offenses,
any one of which would be sufficient to
send Stout, if proven guilty, to the
penitentiary. The first offenSe charged
was a false entry as to the amount due
on demand paper. The second was as
to the amount due from ]. NJ. Stout to
the bank. The third covered an alleged
false entry as to the defendants over
draft. The fourth was in loans and dis
counts, and the fifth in resources.
Judge Dickson cited federal statute
covering the case, and quoted law to
SHOW that the prosecution must confine
itself to enc charge in each count. He
referred to d case or two that had

Judge Marshall indicated that he

first count would be proceeded upon. He
took the question under advisement,
however. The trial of the case is set
for May 9.
Mr. Stout was looking in first-rate

smilingly with Judge Dickson before his
case was reached, and walked briskly
out of the court room aS soon as the
attorneys had finished arguing the de-
