The DISHONEST CAPTAIN.
He Stood In With Dishonest Contractors
and Must Suffer,

Washington. September, 3O.-Captair
Carter is sentenced to five years
Imprisonment and opay fine of SIS, 900
This sentence was approved by the
president to-day. Capt. Carter is now
at Governors island under arrest and
the sentence will begin Immediately.
The verdict of the court is as follows:
''And the court does therefore SEN
tence the accnsed Captain Oberlin M.
Carter of the corps of engineers, United
States army, to be dismissed from the
service of the United States, to suffer a
fine of $1,000 and be confined to hard
labor at such place as the proper au-
thority may direct, for five years and
the crime, punishment, name and place
of abode of the accused to be published
in the newspapers in and about the sta
ton and state from which the accused
came or where he usually resided.
The United States penitentiary at
Fort Leavenworth, Kas., is designated
as the place of his confinement.
The charges were preferred against
Carter by General John NJ Wilson,
chief of engineers, December 13, 1897.
These charges were made after the in
vestigation by the board of engineers of
the river and harbor works at Savanna,
Ga, and other points in that district
which had been under the supervision
of Captain Carter. The charges mainly
consisted of declaration that Carter
had entered into conspiracy with 9th
er persons to defraud the United States.
1t was alleged in the charges that Car
ter and certain parties had defrauded
the United States of from $1,000, 900 to
100000.

SHERIFF STEWARDS WORK.
He Recaptured a Prisoner Who Jumped Out
Of Gar Window,

Sheriff M. C. Stewart of Carlsbad. Ed.
dy county, arrived in the city last night
with three prisoners, one of whom made
an attempt to escape by jumping out of
car window. The prisoner was Igna-
clio Miniares, a 16 year old boy who was
sentenced to two years in the penten-
tiary for the larceny of a mule. Thurs
day morning at a point near Hereford,
while the train was going at the rate of
25 miles an hour, Minjares jumped out
of the window of a closet.
The sheriff soon missed the prisoner,
but there was no bell rope in the car
and it was sometime before he could
communicate with the conductor else
where on the train. The officer finally
decided to 60 to Amarillo and leave
the other prisoners in the county jail
there while he pursued the escaped con-
vict. From Amarillo he drove back and
rearrested the fugitive.
I'VE other two prisoners Sheriff Stew
Nrt brought to the penitentiary are Ma
rion Brack, sentenced to three years for
burglary, and Bruce Jones, sentenced to
one year 1Of larceny.
Sheriff Stewart is establishing a rec
ord for himself that is enviable. AS will
be remembered he effected the capture
of w. H. McGinnis, the alleged train
robber, who is supposed to have killed
Sheriff Farr of Walsenburg, Colo. He
made number of other arrests in Eddy
county that have made him terror to
outlaws and earned for him the reputa-
tion of being one of the most efficient
sheriffs in the southwest.

MAXWELL GRANT TROUBLE.
The Superintendent Only Requires Recog.
milton of Title,

T. A. Schomberg, of Ration, superin-
intendent of the Maxwell Land Grant
company, referring to the evictions now
determined on, says:
''All this talk about a thousand fami-
lies being rendered homeless through the
efforts of our company is pure nonsense.
In the whole Colorado portion of the
grant there are not more than 300 squat
ters, including men, women and children,
and it is not the intention of the com
pany to oppress them in any manner
whatever The truth of the matter Is,
though, that q large number of these
squatters make their livelihood by cut
ting our timber and selling it, and we
propose to put stop to that If we can.
Any settler on the Colorado portion of
the grant who will give proper guaran-
tees not to destroy our timber land and
who is willing to recognize our title by
buying or leasing, has nothing to fear at
all; but it is a case where patience has
ceased to be virtue, and if they will
not quit their depredatons and recog-
nize our title they will have to move off,
every one of them, if it takes the whole
force of the United States government
to put them off,

THE BOERS ARE BOLD
They Are Rushing to Their Base Of
Operations with Guns and
Supplies.
WILL CERTAINLY BE A FIGHT
Wild Excitement Prevails in Pretoria and
the Newspapers Of Great Britain Are
Getting Some Warm Reports of
the Proceedings.

london, September 3O.-The Trans
vaal crisis news, which monopolizes al
the leading columns of the afternoon
papers, is now well nourished by dis.
patches from Cape Town from which
copious particulars of the L.cc'H'r'Nr'
of troops of both sides md other wal
preparations is coming. A dispatch
from Cape Town says: "Alarmist re-
ports from Pretoria of the movements
of burghers must be received with eau
ton. A strict Boer censorship renders
it unlikely that an important movement
could be telegraphed unless the Trans
vaal has good reason for it. 1t is said
here that highly colored reports are
either sent to arouse enthusiasm of
Afrikanders or to produce alarm in
British camps
A telegram from Pretoria dated yes
terday says the widest excitement pre-
walls there and that war preparations
are proceeding apace. Big guns, field
and provisions are being hurried off to
Volksrust, the projected base of Boer
operations against Natal. Crowds gath
er at the station to witness the de-
parture of the military trains. General
Joubert goes to Volksrust tomorrow.
The Boer war office is working night
and day and Communicating is actively
proceeding. The volksraad, in order to
secure the support of many Outlanders,
has decided that Outlanders who help
the Beers will receive the franchise.
Several of the Transvaal government
departments will close tomorrow, in
Guiding the high court. Immediately
after martial law is proclaimed outside
communication with people will be
stopped. The Transvaal is concentrat-
ing artillery along the Natal border and
reserve artillery has been despatched to
St. Andersons.
At Wakkerstrom and also at Rustem
berg, which will probably form the base
of attack, on Beuchanaland in the d.
rection of Mafaking British counter
force is assembling and Notifications are
being raised.
A telegram from Aliwal in the north
says Orange Free State is stopping
wagons of produce and live stock en-
route to Cape Colony. On the British
side the forces are steadily moving near
er the frontier All the railroad bridges
from Colenzo to New Castle are guarded
day and night by mixed force of police
and infantry.
In Rhodesia, which has expected a
Boer attack, British colonists are active
ly preparing for defense.
A dispatch from Pietermaritzburg an
nounces that the governor of Natal has
issued proclamation in view of the i'm
preston that many Dutch farmers may
join the Beers. The proclamation warns
"wickedly disposed persons" that the
of treason is death and con-
tiscation of rebels property.
The Boer reply had not reached the
colonial Office at noon, much to the as
of officials who remained on
duty all night long expecting it's arrival
any moment. If possible war prepara-
tions are more active than ever.
