PROSECUTING AMERICANS.
Abuses in Ecuador May Result in Ser
ious Consultations.

Guayaquil, Feb. 12.-Michael Bolan,
of Springfield, o.; John w. Conner, of
Knoxville, Tenn, and other Americans
have been recent victims of half breed
petty officials here. Mr.. Bolans treat
ment has been infamous. A mulatto
police magistrate of the name of AL
aust, who also keeps rum shop, con-
spired with others to blackmail Mr..
Bolan, who was accordingly arrested
and sentenced to pay $1,000. Tho
jurisdiction of police magistrates only
extends to cases involving the sum of
$50, but 20 attention was paid to this.
Alausi refused to permit professional
perjurers employed In the case to be
cross examined. or to allow a record
to be kept of the proceedings. Bolan
refused to pay the. judgment, and was
placed in Jail. The Americans threat
ened to demolish the Jail. and their
Bolan.
He was scarcely at liberty, however,
before a second attempt was made to
imprison him. He appealed to Mr..
Perry NJ DeLeon, the American con-
sui general here, who was indignant
over the matter. He scored the mag
istrate and advised Minister Samp-
son, at Quito Shortly afterward Mr..
Bolan was rearrested in Guayaquil and
confined in the pestilential prison for
four days, when he was released on
Mr. DeLeons guarantee. The vepal
press attacked the consul general for
his action in the matter, and it is
probable that he will become persona
non grata.
Another attempt is now being made
to arrest Mr.. Bolan, who has sought
refuge in the consulate. The case is
res adjudicata. The E,cuadorian law
admits of no appeal, and there Is no
such thing as the writ of habeas cor
pus. The government has discharged
the magistrate, but it refuses to release
Mr. Bolan from the operation of the
judgment, altho admitting that it is
an outrage. The Americans here are
Disguised with the conduct of their
minister. They believe that the
Washington government will disap-
prove of his weakness and recall him.
Consul General DeLeon will probably
have to retire owing to the animosity
of the Eauadorians against him.
Mr. Bolan, who is i'll, has been per-
secuted for two months. Blackmail-
ing officials are numerous along the
line of the railroad. and they are given

THE CONDOR LOST.
No Doubt That British sIoop of War
Went Down.

Victoria, b. c., Feb. 12.-There is no
longer any doubt that the sloop of war
Condor which had a crew of $50 officers
and men, is lost.
n. M. S. Egeria has returned to Es-
quimalt bringing the boat which was
found by the Ahousett Indians two
months ago, and news of other wreck
age from the Condor. The boat, which
was secured from the indians by Capt.
Tozier of the Grant, he giving them his
dress sword, was transferred to the
Egeria at Kyuquot Capt. Simpson
states positively that it is from the
Condor, and the gripes and chains be-
ing intact shows that it was washed
from her.
The Egeria went as far north as the
Scott islands, off the north end of Van
couyer island. AT Clayoquet, on the
west coast, her officers found wreckage
from the Condor, which shows that she
must have gone down or was smashed
to pieces by the heavy seas. This
wrecknge included a deck grating
marked with the broad arrow of the
British navy, signal box recognized as
one from a British war ship, sheathing,
and part of topmast. 1t is hardly
probable that the ship could have with
stood a storm which would wash these
articles from her deck.
When the Egeria was leaving Clayo-
quet she ran ashore and for twelve
hours she was fast on rock on which
she had run when steaming about half
speed. She listed over until her port
decks was awash at low tide. Her for
ward part was lightened. and at the
next full tide she was fioated. 1t is said
she was not seriously injured. On ar
rival at Esquimalt her fires were bank
ed In the anticipation of further orders
to make another search for the missing
Condor's wreckage, but hope that she
is still afloat has been abandoned.
The crew of the Condor numbered 100
officers and men. Her officers We're:
Commander, Clifton Slater Lieutenants
Mason (navigator) and Henry " Proc
tor, Surgeon T. S. BARLEY. assistant
paymaster in charge; William Il.
Franklin, artsficer; Engineer George J.
Detten, Engineer D. A. Burns.

to working the same game. A num-
Der of similar cases are pending
against other Americans. The ''peon"
law gives petty officials unlimited
power. and they corruptly assume
jurisdiction of litigation affecting con-
tracts. The Americans have endured
this abuse silently until patience has
ceased to be virtue. They are now
thoroughly indignant and want the
United States to interfere to make
Ecuador treat them with justice.
There is urgent ned of energetic dip.
lomatic representations to prevent
outrages similar to those perpetrated
on Mr.. Bolan. Interesting develop
ments are expected in his case. The
jails are foul beyond conception.

ARIZONA GOLD DISCOVERY.
Wonderful Results Obtained in the Ga
luria Mountains.

Tucson, AriZ., Feb. 12.-Mining men
who returned yesterday from the Ga
luria mountains confirm the reports
that have come from that region of the
great gold strike. They say that the
outcropping of the ledge Is ESQ feet
high, showing plainly the ledge Of gold.
1t is $50 feet wide and carries gold free
in the rocks. which yield to the pros
pector's pan values from So up to $500
to the ton. This discovery was made
some months ago by Jack Garden, a
young prospector. but the real value of
the strike has not been realized by min
ing men until recently, when Garden
secured some capital and work was be-
gun. The ledge has been exploited and
1t is now generally conceded by min.
ing men that one of the greatest gold
discoveries in the history Of Arizona
has been made.

One Serious Problem in Everett Moore
Sxndicate's Affairs Solved.


Cleveland. O., Feb 12.-At a special
meeting, of the bankers committee in
charge of the Everett Moore syndi-
Gates affairs the committee unani-
mously ratified the collateral trust plan
for the solution of the affairs of the
Federal Telephone Company
The plan provides necessary capital
to build and extend all the properties in
which 1t now holds n controlling inter-
est. The experts found the properties
thoroughly well built; that they are
never exceled and scarcely ever
equaled by the construction of any like
properties in the country.
In connection with this plan a state
ment showing the earnings of the sew
eral constituent companies forming the
Federal Telephone Company for the
year 1901 was made, which shows a
surplus in earnings of $354.000.
The collateral plan probably assures
the retention of the Federal Telephone
Company by it's present owners.

LamoilIe County Court.

The case of Charles l.. Allen VS..
Bennett Oakes, d. F. Maurice and
Homer Woodward occupied the at
tention of court Wednesday, Thurs
day, Friday and Monday. No ses-
sion was held Saturday, court ad-
journing from Friday night to Mon
day in order to give parties interest
ed an opportunity to attend eau
cuses at Stowe and Morrisville. The
case drew a large attendance, both
of interested and disinterested par
ties; some 80 witnesses were exam
ined. 1t seems that Allen, who lives
in Waterville, is now a single man,
but was once married, had in his en-
ploy Clayton Potter and wife. Be-
cause of trouble Potter left his wife,
but she continued as housekeeper for
Allen. July 16, 1900, a very dark
night, SO several witnesses told, Al.
len was taken from the house and
treated to liberal coat of tar and
feathers, by crowd of men, among
them, so he says, being the defendants
above named. 1t took Allen several
udyS W ScU InUO piep6uId Ul6 bud p6,
and he quite naturally sought redress.
1t is said the attention of the grand
jury was called to the case but they
failed to fad a bill, and so Allen sued
Oakes, Maurice and Woodward for
personal damages. The case went to
the jury at five o'clock Monday after
noon and at six they brought in
verdict of not guilty.
