Ever since Mooney and the man
known as Frank Friday, alias
Doc Riley We're arrested on the night
of March LIST, charged with the murder
OF James Hervey at Elm Grove on
that night there have been various
-conjectures. not only by the police but
by numerous other interested parties,
as to the real identity OF Friday. On
the witness stand Friday refused to
give his true name, that of any of his
relatives nor his place of habitation.
Instead he told a fabulous story of a
seemingly rolling stone career Hitting
about the country. The prosecution
accepted this as true and because the
witness would not state his occupation,
inferred in their arguments that Fiji
day was a notorious crook.
Before the trial the attorneys for
the prosecution made every effort TO
discover who the man was, but all to
no avail. His connections certainly
had money for they furnished the
funds for expenses OF counsel.
Yesterday some new facts regarding
I]Udy stay III w ueCllAS, PiAoh W
the murder, were learned by Reg
lister reporter, which may establish the
mans real identity.
On one occasion Friday was stand
ing on the street talking to an ac-
quaintance. Mooney approached on
the opposite sidewalk, and Friday
catching sight of him, SAID
"Well, so long, here comes my pard-
ner, and started across the street to
Join him. \ "You had better stay from
Jack Mooney, HEN get you INTO
trouble. Friday only laughed and
walking on joined Mooney.
People who are in position to kno"
say that Fridays true name is FRANK
Gleason, and that he formerly worked
in this city at boiler making in the Cox
& Morrison foundry. On leaving this
city. Gleason moved to GAINESVILLE, u,
where about the first of the year he had
a wife and one child. boy seven years
old.
A query to GAINESVILLE, o., last night
revealed the fact that there had Deen
a man named Frank Gelason in that
city, working in the Griffith & Wedge
and Blaney foundries. Gleason disap-
peared about February LIST, and no one
there seemed to know where he is.
The tatt that Friday shaved OFF his
mustache would tend to conceal his
identity to some extent. Further in
formation on the matter could not De

writes briefly and to the point re-
garding his experience with piles

lHble dispatch to the Sun
from Kimberley, dated February 24th,
contains some highly important 1ntor-
nation to the diamond importers OF
this country and consequently to the
jewelry industry at large. We quote
verbatim as follows:
Mr.. Cecil Rhodes presided yesterday
over the annual meeting OF the De
Beers Mining Company. The terms
were Professionally arranged for the
purchase of the new Bulfontein mine
and looking to a gradual rise in the
price of diamonds, which will enable
the poor mines to become paying ones.
Mr. Rhodes said that the life of the
mines was practically endless.
There have been predictions in some
quarters, especially in carelessly edited
newspapers, that tn raising of the siege
of Kimberley would be followed by a
relaxation in the prices of diamonds.
How such a conclusion could be reached
In the light of the enormous losses to
the De Beers Company, due to the
siege, among which may be specified
the nearly one-half years profits on
the basis of about $4,000, 900 per year,
the damage to the mines through mac
tivity and direct injury by the bonn
bardment of the besieging force, the
cost of maintenance of the enormous
number of workers without any pro-
ductivity on their part, these losses ag-
gregating millions of dollars, it is be-
yond the powers of true thinking
mind TO conceive That the reverse
would be the case was the obvious con-
clusion to one who would consider the
circumstances; and thus it is seen that
siege is hardly ended before the COM
pany decide on gradual rise in the
price of diamonds" This will be well
come news to the trade, for the decision

New Officials.

Last evening the old Council met and
transacted its business up to date and
paid bills. Then the new Council was
sworn in and organized by electing j..
b. Farnell president and Hon. Charles
Downey vice president. Mayor-elect
John Goodhue was sworn In and Mar
shal-elect Charles Erwin took the oath
of office They presented the following
as the new police force: Albert Kroe-
ger, James A. Campbell Newton Tai
burt and Charles Bailey. All were
confirmed by Council except Bailey,
against whom charges were preferred
by ex-Officer Brock Brown, on the
charge of conduct unbecoming an OFF,
Ger, and Bailey's confirmation was laid
over, as Brown stated that he was not
prepared to bring all the facts before
Council at this meeting, but would
have them in writing at the next meet
ing. Bailey stated that he would be
able to defend himself and was ready
then, and that it was only brought as
spite work. The present Council is
eight Republicans and two Democrats
and Democratic City Solicitor. The
Republicans hold the balance of power.
The eX-policemen are S. Westwood,
Port Coleman. AS Officer Erwin be-
comes marshal and Officer Bailey was
not confirmed, it makes a whole new
force. The present Council, while Re-
publican, is a representative body, and
has the entire confidence of the people,
and it is safe to say the Democratic
members will do their duty. Ellis
Lash, present city clerk, was re-elect-
ed. The new city administration has
much before it and was elected On
reform platform, and has many prom
ises to fulfill, and the people will keep
a careful watch. The start may be
well, but it is advisable for the people
to make no hasty decision, but wait
for the future developments.
