Submarine Robbery.

NEW YORW. June 21.-Two div
ors, John Mcpherson and Simon
Grant Of this city have brought from
Hayti tale of one of the strangest
robberies on record. 1t is a theft
VI safe containing $4,000 from the
bottom of the sea, where it had lain
in sunken hulk for nearly five years.
The divers had been engaged to re-
cover the treasure from the Haytian
gunboat Crete-A-Perriot, which was
sunk in Gonaives harbor September 6.
1902, after an encounter with the
German gunboat Panther. 1t appears
that the Haytian gunboat, command
ed b. Admiral Killick, had taken
part in a revolution against the Hay
ten government. To further the
cause a German merchantmen, the
steamer Markamannin, was boarded
and arms and ammunition were seized.
The commander of the Panther was
notified and he soon cornered the
Haytien gunboat in Gonaives harbor
End fired at her. Those on board the
Crete-A-Perriot, rather than let the
ship fall into the hands of the Ger
mans exploded charge of dynamite
in the ship and caused her to sink
Several men were lost with the YES
sell. 1t was known at the time that
the safe in the admiraps quarters
contained money and valuables
amounting to upward of $4,000, but
no effort was made to recover this
until recently, when Mcpherson and
Grant were engaged to dive for the
treasure. The divers had no difficult
tS- in locating the sunken ship nor in
locating the admiral's room. But
when they sought the safe it had
been taken away. The condition OF
the cabin indicated that it had been
removed recently. The Haytien Off
Gals, the divers say were astoundeG
at the revelation, but could find nc
clue to the identity of the submarine
thieves.

Message ON Turtles Back.

N'~~SS
SAN DIEGO, June 22.-One of the
puzzles of the sea came to the sur
face yesterday when gigantic sea
turtle was captured by julius Solissa,
a fisherman in whose net it had be-
come entangled. The moster weighed
1902 pounds, almost ton, and its
shells is five feet two inches from tip
to tip. On its back somewhat plain
ly is burned or carved this inscrip-
ton: British sea bride, August
IL. 1881. notify Thomas Fletcher

It would appear from this that the
turtle was captured &c years ago in
the south Pacific and that he was re
leased after the lettering had beer
burned in it shell.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 10.-The
first victory of consequence to be scored
by the defense since Abe Ruef was in
dicted for extortion by the grand jury
was achieved today in the state su-
preme court.
1t came in the form of a partial rul-
ing by that tribunal sitting en- banc, by
which Ruef's prayer for greater per-
sonal liberty is granted.
Under the provision of a section of
the penal code declaring that a per-
son charged with a public offense shall
not before conviction be subjected to
any more restraint than is necessary
to insure his presence in court to an
swer to the charge, the supreme court
directed Elisor Biggy to allow Ruef
more personal liberty-to permit him
within reasonable hours to see and
converse with any person he may wish
to see, whether his attorneys, his pros
pective Witnesses his friends, men,
bers of his family or those with whom
he has business; and to permit him
to hold with them private conversa-
tions out Of earshot of his guards.
The court withheld decision as to
that portion of Ruef's habeas corpus
petition which denies legal right of
court (meaning Superior Judge Dunne)
to clothe an elisor with custodial pow
ers; so the main contention is yet un-
determined.
Ruef and his counsel were much
elated by their partial victory as it
expressly enables the prisoner to pre-
pare without hindrance his defense a
right which he has all along claimed
the prosecution was denying to him by
shutting out his witnesses from the
dwelling house prison on Fillmore
street, by refusing him the privileges
of private talks.
