l@I-ADf1h.
| read an article published in
your paper of the Sth, written by
Judge McFadden, in reply to an
editorial published in the Twenty
Five Hundred of October 1st. In
reply to the Judges article l wish
to say he misrepresents the facts in
the case. The truth is, the man.
Capt. E. Most, who got the beer, OBJ
tained it for medical purposes un-
der prescription that / wrote my
self. He was suffering from the
effects of weak heart and needed
the stimulant. / have the prescrip-
tion on file in my office, signed by
Mr.. Most, and it can be seen by
anyone who desires.
The Judge says there were no
spies sent out, but this is also a
mistake, as two men came into my
store and claimed to be sick. /
told the first man, a stranger to me,
that this was a dry town, and he
could not get any whiskey without
prescription. l examined him
and prescribed an alcoholic stimuli
ant, which he took, after signing
the prescription, not with his own
name, but the name of another per-
son. This man, as | afterward lear
ned, was Lou Hartman of Portland.
Judge McFadden told me two or
three times that Hartman came
into my store and signed pres
cription for medicine, but not his
own name. Now another reason
why | know it was Hartman that
came into my store. As soon as he
went away gentleman came in
and asked if | knew who that man
was who had just gone out. /
said that | did not. He replied
that was Lou Hartman, a spotter
from Portland, who was trying to
catch me and make trouble. At
the time this gentleman %calIed
Hartman some pretty hard names.
The other person who came in as
a spy was a lawyer. He claimed to
be sick and in great distress. l
prescribed for him a stimulant.
He seemed to be suffering from
heart failure and | tried to help
him. He also went before the dis
trict attorney and wanted me pros
ecuted. Judge McFadden said
this lawyer would give him no rest
till | was prosecuted.
| let no one have whiskey whom
| know to be drunkard, and
tried hard to keep within the letter
and spirit Of the law, but this is
very hard to do if anyone wants to
make you trouble. 1t seems the
Judge is more of prosecutor than
prosecutor.
l don't suppose that Governor
Chamberlain appointed McFadden
district attorney to have him ap-
point a hoard of spoilers and spies
to go about the country harassing
the people and prying into their
business to make them trouble.
Judge McFadden used to be called
Windy Sarah, and | think it a very
appropriate name.

 It developed that Runyan gave Mrs. Carter heavy gold bracelet and dia- mond ring Saturday evening. These were valued at $1, GOO The bracelet is now in the possession of the police Mrs. Carter was closely questioned as to her ac- quaintance with Runyan. She said she first met him on the street. Finally she said he agreed to furnish flat for her and give her $50 a week. The flat was secured and she moved in two weeks ago. After that she said she saw little of Run van until Saturday. Asked about the motive of the robbery Runyan said:
 "I needed the money. It was there, and l took it. Some of 1t I lost in Wall street. and some of it 1 gave to this woman.'
 He insisted that he had turned over all the money he had left to the police and when 1t was pointed out that there was a large amount still missing he smiled and said.
 "Oh, I've been spluttering you know. All the world knows that now"
 Questioned concerning bottle of laud- anum found on him, the prisoner admit ted that he had contemplated suicide. Ar ter a moment he added:
 There, I guess that I've said all I'm going to say till l secure my counsel"
 At the police station Runyan and the woman quarrelled bitterly each accus- ing the other of misstatements concern ing the missing money When Runyan said he had given her sl5,000 the woman declared the assertion false. Then turn ing to the inspector she said:
 "Ill tell you why I gave him up. I was scared. Yesterday I went out into the ctr nj tbpra saw his picture l took taht paper back home and asked him if the picture was of him and he said 1t was.
 "The he turned on me like a tiger and said:
 There's the money, but if either you or that damned nigger Mary squeal to the police, Ill kill you

KIDNAPPING WILL
 BE INVESTIGATED
DISTRICT ATTORNEY FOR ARI- IONA TO LOOK INTO ALLEGED KIDNAPPING OF MANUEL SARA VIA, A MEXICAN AGITATOR.

Washington, July 5.-The department of justice, at the request of the state de- partment, directed the United States dis trict attorney for Arizona to make an in- vestigation into the alleged Kidnapping from Douglas, Ariz., into Mexico of Manuel Saravia, an alleged Mexican agi- tator, reported to have been connected with a Mexican newspaper published in St. Louis in the interest of the revolu- tionary party.
 The inquiry is undertaken at the in- stance of friends of Saravia, but so far nothing has been heard from the terri torial authorities.
 It is expected that the arrest of the Mexican consul at Douglas on the charge of being implicated in the Kidnapping may be made a matter of complaint, but it is said that his consular office execpts from liability for criminal action or his part. If the facts are as alleged. it may be- come necessary for this government to request the Mexican authorities to return the Kidnapped man to Arizona.

 Runyan found in the apartment of Mrs. Laura M. Carter of 6l9 West One Hundred and Forty-fourth street, where he had been since he walked out of the bank on Saturday with all the money in the tellers vault in his suit case.
 Mrs. Carter reported to the police this afternoon that Runyan was in her flat. Five detectives at once accompanied Mrs. Carter to the house. As the detectives entered Runyan was standing before a chffonier He turned on the officers with revolver in his hand, but when the detectives rushed at him he dropped the revolver and submitted to being hand cuffed saying:
 The jig's up.''
 When asked where the money was. he said that part of 1t was in the suit case and the rest in a drawer of the chif- fonier. Mrs. Carter and her negro mad, Mary Duncan. were also arrested.
 At the station Runyan said that he had been in the flat since Saturday laughing at the efforts of the police to locate him.

Mrs. Car ter indignantly denied that she had any of the money, and told Runyan that she had betrayed him to the police because he had not given her money as he had promised.
 Runyan stated that he had given Mrs. Carter $15,000 but this she denied. He said he gave her 5000 Monday and s10,0O0 this morning. Mrs. Carter said he gave her
