Former Deputy Collector OF
Iloilo Wanted There
for a Felony.

The criminal career of Arthur r.
Stuart, formerly Deputy Collector Of
Customs at Iloilo Philippines Islands,
has been checked for a time by his
arrest last Thursday at San Antonio,
Tex, on a warrant charging him with
having fraudulently altered Govern
ment records while at Iloilo. The ar
rest was made by United States Secret
Service Agent Joseph Priest, who had
been furnished by United States Secret
Service Agent Hazen of this city with
photographs of Stuart.
The Federal authorities had been
searching for Stuart for long time
a few months after he left the Philip
pines. Stuart was reared in San Luis
Obispo, CAL, in which town his father
was cashier of bank. Securing en-
ployment with the streetcar company
in Los Angeles in 1892, he embezzled
$1,000 from the company, was con-
victed in the Superior Court of that
county and sentenced to five years i'm
prisonment in the San Quentin peni-
tentiary. His sentence was commuted
to two years by Governor Markham
and in 1895 the prisoner was restored
to citizenship. In 1898 he enlisted
in the Eighteenth United States In
fantry at San Antonio, Tex, and made
so favorable an impression upon his
superior officers in the Philippines
that they procured for him the ap-
pointment of Deputy Collector of Gus
toms at Iloilo.
After leaving the islands he was
given employment in this State by
DR.. B. T. McGillicudy as inspector of
the New York Mutual Life Insurance
Company and in the latter part of last
March he absconded with 500 of the
company's money.
Stuart married an estimable young
woman in New Orleans. She died
soon after the marriage and he took
her diamond rings to a pawnshop and
pawned them. He was last heard of
at Natchez, Miss, where he jumped a
board bill and left his trunk.
Stuart worked for a while for his
uncle, Mr.. Hoefier, in the law office
of Bishop, Wheeler & Hoef1er in this
city, but his services were dispensed
with, not having been satisfactory.
Stuart will be taken back to the
Philippines for trial.S

In view OF what yet may be realized
from nitrate deposits in this State the
following figures, taken from the quar-
terly report Of the association that con-
trolls the nitrate output Of Chile, have
interest:
The production for the year 1908 amounted
to 1614.434 tons. as compared With L4lS.tsS
tons in 1902. Expectations in 1905 amounted
to LISA 142 tons. compared with l.oO4.4fS
tons in 1902. The deliveries for consumption
in 1903 amounted to ,64l,314 tons, as com
pared with l. 420. 041 tons in 1902. II the con-
sumption in February, March and April OF the
current year should be equal to that in the
corresponding months OF last year. the con-
sumption in the nitrate year 1901 VIII oe
1.65O.013 tons. The total OF the Quotas as
1904, amounts TO ?. 249. 500 tons and there are
eight new works in course Of construction. the
product Of which will equal 100000 tons, max
inR a total for the next nitrate year OF 2. 604,
500 tons It is noted that the majority OF the
operators OF the new nitrate WORKS and oIn-
cinas'' being established in the 'pampa" are

LAND OWNERS MAY
PURCHASE THE BONDS
New Plan Is Submitted for the Settle
nlent of Irrigation Difficulty
at Escondido.

SAN DIEGO, June 1O.-It is under
stood that a new proposition is to be
submitted to the property owners of
Escondido for the settlement of the
irrigation district muddle. The attor-
neys of the land owners, L. A. Wright
and A. Haines, have been in conference
with the bondholders for the past two
days, and the plan that they have about
agreed upon and which will be sub
mitted to the land owners is the pur-
chase of the bonds by the land owners
themselves in quantities they desire
at the rate of 100000 for $3.50, 900 in
bonds that were issued. In this way
the land owners will gradually become
the owners of the bonds and the debt
viii eventually be wiped out. In other
words, the lien on the property in the
district viii be transferred from Put
nam to the land owners and, with a
lien in their hands, things ought to run
along pretty smoothly.

BUSY FUTURE
IS EXPECTED
Dealers Show Confidence
Despite Unusually Slow
and Dull Trade Conditions
PREPARE FOR THE FALL
Many Complaints Are Being
Made That Weather Is Not
Favorable to Retailers

NEW YORK, June 10.-R. G. Dun
& Co.'s weekly review of trade to-
morrow will say:
Current trade conditions are with
out change and collections continue
slow as rule, but there is growing
confidence in the future, dealers ex-
hibiting in inclination to prepare for
fall and winter on. larger scale.
There is still. much complaint that the
weather is unfavorable for retail
trade. Reports regarding the build
ing trades are almost uniformly IA
vorable, structural work increasing as
the season advances. Railway earn
ings, now practically complete for
April, show a loss of only "a per cent
the corresponding month of many pre-
ceding years. The decline in the cost
of living has continued without inter-
ruption since March 1.
List prices for iron and steel prod
ucts are maintained in most cases,
mainly because of agreements rather
than the support of consumption.
Some evidence of weakness is noted
in hides, both domestic and foreign,
although actual changes in quotations
are small.
Failures this week in the United
States are 227, against 220 last week,
226 in the preceding week and 215 in
the corresponding week last year.
Failures in Canada number so, against
20 last week, II in the preceding
week and IA last year.

Edwin T. Ward of Los Angeles is re-
lated to the Goulds of New York. The
late Jay Gould was of rather humble
origin. He laid the foundation of his
fortune by peddling mousetraps. But
Jay Gould was not a descendant OF any
of the proud families of England or
Continental Europe. Mrs. Gould, how
ever, was descended from Andrew
Ward, who settled at Fairchild, Conn.
George Jay Gould and his sister Anna,
the Countess Boni de Castellane, are
accordingly entered in the peerage
book on account of their mothers pedi-
gree Thus Mrs. Howard Gould, once
an actress well known in California
as Katherine Clement, is also entitled
to registry in the Peerage Book. 1t hap
pens, too, that Captain Ward Of Los
Angeles is related TO the Goulds, al
though that fact may be unknown even
TO himself.
