Globe Times: Fonr mighty team

Globe Times: Fonr mighty team sters sat in lumber wagon In front of the postofiice last Sunday after noon. The by-standers had to lift their hats in admiration as these study sons of the frontier told their stories of daring How they had piloted the Deadwood stage in the 7Us or navigated the Apache-infested foothills of Arizona with sixteen mules aud jerk line. One old-timer wanted to bet $500 against the hole in duughnut that he could turn an eight-hurse team on your hat rim. Just then they had occasion to turn that wagon around. They punched and pulled and yelled at the old ricks of bones, but they couldn't turn that wagon in 60-'oOt str ct. They un' hitched and hitched up again, and backed the wagon over crate or chickens and a hydrant, but they couldn't turn that round. Finally the boss got on in front, hullowed pood-b bye and drove off toward san Carlos. It leaked out next day that he went up there aud tur led around on the parade grounds.

Fitzgerald.

Sheriff Hight Succeeds in Capturing win
Fitzgerald.
Will Fitzgerald, who escaped from
Jail on Wednesday evening, May "a,
was recaptured last Monday evening
and is now resting securely behind
the bars of his old love, the county
bastile.
Several days ago Sheriff Hight re-
ceived information that his escaped
prisoner was hiding out in the woods
near his home at Rally Hill, and he
Immediately began to devise means
to effect his capture. He sent to the
State penitentiary for pair of blood
hounds, which arrived Monday
morning under care of their trainer,
Mr.. j. W. Tant. Accompanied by
Deputy Sheriff Harder, Brooks
Hight and Charley Mason, Sheriff
Hight and Mr.. Tant left town in
wagon at | A. NJ, for Rally Hill.
This party was joined later by Com.
stable Albert Ring and Dr.Buchanan
Arriving at point about one mile
west of Rally Hill, the party con-
cealed their wagon and team in a
thicket and then started on their
posed Fitzgerald was in hiding.
Their search was rewarded when
about two and a half miles from
Rally Hill, in a thick jungle, by
finding bed upon which Fitzgerald
had been sleeping, and also an un-
finished meal in the shape Of piece
of cOrnbread and bottle of butter
milk.
Fitzgerald, in the meantime, hav-
ing noticed the approach of the
party, had crawled about twenty
yards away and climbed a tree. The
dogs immediately took up the trail,
and in very little time bad Fitzger-
aid located. With much chagrin,
he climbed down from his perch,
was handcutfed and brought to town
and locked up.
Fitzgerald had been in hiding at
the place where he was found near
ly ever since his escape. When he
lett the Jail he made a circuitous
route around the country and arriv-
ed at his hiding place the second
day after his escape. He slept on
quilt on the ground, and was fur
nished his victuals by his friends
and relatives.
Sheriff Hight spared no pains or
expense in capturing Fitzgerald.
The bloodhounds cost him 500 per
day, being used only one day, how
ever, and the total expense of the
capture amounted to about $62.
The charge against Fitzgerald waf
assault with attempt to commit muir
der In the first degree. He was to
have been tried during the first part
of this term of court, but escaped a
day or two before his case was call
ed. Thinking that he would be re-
captured, his case was reset and
last Wednesday was the day fixed
for trial.

FIRE AT THE GAS WORKS.
A Serious Confagration Is Narrowly
Averted.

A Serious Conhagration Is Narrowly
AVerted.
What might have been a very
serious contiagration was narrowly
averted at the gas works plant on
North Main street last Saturday
night. During the early part of the
night the gas supply began to fail,
and Supt. Moore went down to in
vestigate the cause. In doing so he
let some oil run from one of the
tanks onto the ground. Later, ,Messrs.
Littlef1eld and Smith went down to
look after the machinery, and, not
knowing that the ground was satu-
ated with oil, lit candle and set it
down upon the ground. Immediately
the oil ignited and there was a big
flash. The fire alarm was sounded
and the fire company was soon on
the scene and had the blaze eXtin-
guished before much damage was
done.
There was large tank filled with
several thousand gallons of oil near
the fire, and had the blaze gotten
into this, great havoc to that
portion of the city would have
been wrought. Many persons who
started to the fire, when told that it
was at the gas works, quickly re-
traced their steps and lost no time
in getting at safe distance.

A NEW TRIAL
FOR DREYFUS.
Justice Given the Devils
Island Prisoner.
HIS ACQUITTAL Is INEVITABLE.
Count Esterhazy COnfesses That He Is
Guilty, and duplicates Other High Army
Oficials-The Question Now Is, ''wiIl
the Guilty Be Punished?"

PARIS, June 3.-The court of cas-
favor Of revision of the Dreyfus
case, and ordering new court-mar-
tial, to sit Rennes, sixty miles from
Nantes, for the trial of the prisoner.
Previous to the announcement of
the verdict crowds of people assem-.
bled at the Palace of Justice and its
neighborhood, awaiting the election.
Perfect calm prevailed. The decis-
ion, which was pronounced at $40
p. M, says the prisoner is to be re-
tried on the following questions:
us Dreyfus guilty of having in
1894 practiced Vaccinations, or of
having had communication with a
foreign power, or its agents, with the
view of facilitating acts of hostilities
in the case of war with France, or
having furnished the means there
for by furnishing notes or documents
retraced on the bordereau?"
The audience received the decis-
ion with cries of "Vive la justice, :"
"Vive la loie."
Premier Dupuy has summoned the
ministers of the interior, justice, war,
navy and the colonies to meet to-
morrow morning in order to confer
upon the measures to be taken to
bring Dreyfus back to France.
The public generally accepted the
decision as a logical result of the re-
cent revelations. There is an uncon-
firmed rumor that alarming news
has been received by the colonial
office respecting the health of Drey-
fus.

10000 SOLDIERS.
Gen. Otis VIII Be Supplied With That
Number.
Brig. .-Gen. King Says the Situation in
the Philippines is Most
Serious.

WASHINGTON, June 2.-The Cabi-
net at its meeting to-day decided
that there was no present necessity
for the enlistment of volunteers.
The situation was gone over at the
Cabinet meeting very fully before
this conclusion was reached.
The President stands ready at any
time it may appear necessary to
authorize the enlistment of the vol
unteers should more men be deemed
necessary, although hoping that
such contingency may not arise.
Gen. Otis is to be given the 10000
men for whom he has asked. The
additional 5000, or 5000 to make up
the 10000 are to be taken from the
regulars now serving in Puerto Rico,
Cuba and this country. The rainy
season is now on in the Philippines,
and aggressive field operations will
have to be suspended for couple of
months at least.

LOUISVILLE, June 2.-To- day, the
last day of the Bimetallic League
Convention, was distinctly a Bryan
day, and the welcome was as vocif-
erous as brass bands and shouting
people could give him. Greeted by
brass band as he stepped from the
train yesterday at noon, he was
never out of ear shot of a band until
he went to bed this morning.
Cheered as he alighted from the
train, he was seldom out of the sound
Of cheers until he was driven away
from Fountain Ferry Park this
morning after having made his
third speech during the day. With
all the business off it's hands, the
convention had nothing to do but be
enthusiastic, and it did that part of
its duty nobly.
During the afternoon Mr.. BRYAN
spoke at the auditorium to a crowd
which tested the big buildings ca
pacity. Early last evening he spoke
to several thousand people at Phe
nix Hill, and, later in the night, he
spoke at banquet given him at
Fountain Ferry Park.

LOUISVILLE, KY, June 1.-At the
second days meeting of the Ohio
Valley League of Bimetallic Clubs
to-day, the following resolutions
were enthusiastically adopted:
FIRST, Our faith in bimetalism is vim
dicated by events. The necessity for
the restoration of the double standard
was acknowledged by the president and
congress in 1897, when a commission
was sent to Europe to entreat other ma
tions to aid in establishing bimetallism,
and the failure of the commission to se-
cure European cooperation confirms
the friends of free coinage in their be-
lief that relief can only come by the
Independent action of the United States.
The present legal ratio of Is to | is the
only ratio at which bimetallism can be
restored and opposition to it is confined
to those who oppose bimetallism at any
ratio, and to those who misapprehend
or ignore the reasons which led three
national conventions to adopt it. That
whatever paper money needs to be is.
sued in this country to supplement a
gold and silver currency should be is.
sued directly by the government of the
United States without the intervention
of any bank or corporation what
ever.
,. We favor and recommend the adop.
tion by the Democratic national con.
vention in 1900 OF the Chicago platform
of 1895 without change.
3. We esuecially favor and recon-
mend the adoption by the Demo cratic
national convention of 1900 of the finan'
cial plank in the Chicago platform OF
1896 without any change.
We believe the trust is the result in
large measure of the methods that have
been used, among which is the demon
etization of silver, by which the volume
of currency has been kept below the de
mands of business. We favor the de
struction of the result as we'll as the
removal of the cause. The establish
ment of independent bimetallism at II
to would do more to cripple or to de
stroy the organization and operation o
the trust than any other single act. We
favor and recommend therefore, the
adoption by the Democratic nationa
convention of 1900 of an appropriate anC
specific declaration against the organic
alton and existence of the trust and 6
specific promise of legislative and ex
ecutive action tending to their EXTERN
ination.
3. We hereby express our continued
confidence in William Jennings Bryan
and favor his nomination for the presi
dency of the United States in 1900.

SITUATION MOST SERIOUS,
Says Brig. Gen. Charles King, From the
Philippines.

Philippines.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 2.-Brig.
Gen. Charles King, who returned
home on the transport City of Pueblo,
owing to ill health, in al interview
said:
1.-THE situation in the Philippines
is most serious. The people of those
islands will keep up a guerilla war
fare and there is no telling when the
hostilities will cease. They retire
to the Businesses of their mountain
retreats when they are whipped, and
hide in the jungles. Subsisting on
practically nothing, they have no
need for base of supplies.
"It will necesstiate a large force of
men to subjugate them completely.
The war IN the Philippines is by no
means ended. Their entrenchments
are works of military engineering
and construction, equal to the best
of the most civilized military ma
tions have produced. Under the
Spanish regime the Filipino learned
something of war and we are receiv-
ing evidence of this every day. The
volunteers who fought in the Philip
pines are a splendid lot of men, ca
pable and accomplished fighters.
They behaved like veterans when
under fire, and there is no limit to
their courage. Their record in that
awful country will adorn pages of
American history recently made and
yet unwritten.n

ESTERHAZY CONFESSEs.
Says He Is Guilty of the Crime With
Which Dreyfus Is Charged.

Says He Is Guilty of the Crime With
Which Dreyfus Is Charged.
LONDON ,June2.-The Daily ChrOn-
icle says that Maj. Comete Ferdin-
Welsin Esterhazv called at it's office
last evening (Friday) with conf
Dental friend, and after declaring
that the time had arrived when the
whole truth should be told, although
hitherto by reason of constant orders
and inducements he had kept silence
on the essential point, made the fol-
lowing statement:
THE chiefs of the army have dis
gracefully abandoned me. My cup
is full and L shall speak out.
"Yes (raising his voice and glar-
ing around), it was [ who wrote the
bordereau. l wrote it upon orders
received from Sandherr."
Esterhazy, the Chronicle says, then
proceeded to explain that for months
before 1893 moral proofs had been
obtained of leakages which were
only possible through officers be-
longing to the ministry of war, and
it was necessary to catch the guilty
party by material evidence. Hence
the bordereau.
When asked what the chiefs of the
French general staff would say to
this confession, Esterhazy, shrug-
glng his shoulders, disdainfully re-
piled:
"They will lie as they know how
to lie, but L have them tight. / have
proofs that they knew the whole
thing and share the responsibility
with me, and 1 will produce the
proofs" .
He then denounced the chiefs as a
"set of scoundrels who have aban-
doned me basely," and added; But
at one time they used to come to
thank Mime. Pays for her assistance. "

hazy to sign the notes of the inter-
