SANTA BARBARA, Sept 16-Burg-

The burglary was first discovered by
Horace Stewart, son of Sheriff Nat Stew
art, who is one of the office messengers
and usually is the first to arriveZat the
Office in the morning. Entering the back
door as usual, Stewart was surprised to
find the door open and proceeding toward
the front office, he discovered the safe
door swung wide open. Closing the Of
flee he went to the hotel where Acting
Agent Adams stays and informed him of
the robbery. The affair was Immediately

of the burglary tends to make it appear
that the haul was made through the con-

knowledge of the inside workings of the

GO Operation.
PHYSICIANS Declare Condition
Serious, but in No Way
Critical.
Latest Bulletin Announces Improve
ment, but Members Of the Irish
Baronet's Suite Are Very
Much Worried.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-The serious con-
dition of Sir Thomas Upton and the com.
plant from which he is suffering were
officially made public in a bulletin issued
late this afternoon by the three special
lists in attendance. The bulletin was as
follows:
citis is progressing favoraby and patient salts
factory. HOMER NJ: THOMAS. NJ. D.,
GEORGE w. WEBSTER, NJ. D.,
NICHOLAS SEM, NJ. d.
The foregoing was given out after a
second consultation held by the physi-
Clans Another conference and examina-
ton were held tonight, and at II p. m.
the following bulletin was issued:
The condition of patient continues satisfac-
tory. HOMER NJ. THOMAS. M. D.,
GEORGE W. WEBSTER, NJ D., 7
NICHOLAS sENN. NJ. d.
At midnight DIR. Webster said that il
had not yet been determined whether ar
operation to remove the vermiform ap-
pendix would be necessary. In its pres
ent stage the baronet's ailment is de-
scribed as catarrhal" appendicitis, in
which there is Inflammation of the ap-
pendix. unaccompanied by the forma tion
of pus or abscess. Should suppuration
ensue says the physician. an operation
might be unavoidable, while in any case
1t is far from being an unlikely mode of
treatment.
The symptoms noted in the examination
of Sir Thomas are described by DR.. Web
ster as follows:
We found that our patient suffering from
pains of an intense and colicky nature in the
region of the appendix, that there was muscular
rigidity on the right side of the body and local
lied pain and pressure, accompanied by fever.
Such symptoms, it was added by DR..
Webster. are common in appendicitis.
What shall be the precise line of treat
ment pursued in the case of Sir Thomas
is declared to be purely matter for
speculation as yet. despite the fact that
his disease has yielded to diagnosis.
Immediately after the examination to-
night Sir Thomas fell into a doze, out
of which he did not awake for several
hours. According to the physicians, the
Irish baronet slept most of yesterday.
This may have been due to the fact that
opiates were almost constantly admins
tered to him to ease the intense pain he
was undergoing.
All of the members of Sir Thomas suite
passed an anxious day and evening. De-
spite the assurances of the physicians
that while the patients condition was Sc
rious it was as yet in no way critical
they were much worried Many kilograms
of sympathy were received by Sir Thomas
to-day.

stoutly asserted that he only fired upon
Marriott when he thought that he him
self was in danger of being shot down.
BEALE SUFFERS ALSO.
Beale had little more success at keep
ing his temper than Williams Upon di-
rect testimony he related a story which
tailed with that of Williams in every
particular. When Johnson took hold of
him trouble commenced almost at once.
Did you take a gun out to Marriott S
house because you were afraid of him?"
asked Johnson.
We'll, 1 did not know to what a pass
our interview might come" replied the
witness.
And you hit defenseless man on
the head with a revolver in his own house
and within call of his wife and children? ."
Beale replied Indignantly that he be-
ieved Marriott to be armed or he would
not have taken such measures. Williams
intervened at this juncture, and after the
Judge had Strengthened matters out the
taking Of testimony proceeded more
peacefully until the defense had closed
its case.
After the closing of the testimony Hi
ram Johnson renewed the motion pre-
viously entered in the early part of the
trial to strike out all the testimony re-
lating to mitigating circumstances as be-
ing utterly at variance with the plea of
self-defense, which the defense is stand

under advisement and will announce his
decision to-day when the trial is re-
