[T DIDN’T COST HIM A GENT.

He Swears Before the Bribery Investi-

SAN Fnaxcisco, March 21.—'l‘he bitter,

senatorial fight has ended by the election
of Charles N. Felton to fill the unexpired
term of the late George Hearst. All
through the struggle charges and counter-
charges of bribery were freely and openly
made, and even now a legislative cOmmit-
tee is investigating the matter. Senator-
elect Felton was examined, and swore that
no had not spent one dollar in the recent
:anvass, nor had any one been authorized
-:o do so for him.

A Stampede t‘o Felton.

Before the vote was announced a number
of Republicans changed from Estee to Fel-
ton, and a regular stampede followed, vote
after vote in rapid succession being .flung
to Felton. When the excitement subsided
and the tall-y was finally announced it was
found that Felton had received 73 votes
and Estee but_15. Felton was formally de-
clared elected to the United States, senate,
and the joint convention adjourned. i . , '

 

Estee is universally believed to be that the.
wing of the Republican party represented
by the Spreckels Bros. and Louis Sloss of
the Alaska Fur company induced Stan—
. ford to withdraw his support from Estee
at the last moment just as he did for his
own interest in, the case of. Sargent six
years ago.‘ The electionof Felton is some-
what of a surprise, but is received by Re-
publicans here with considerable satisfac-
tion. , ., - ' ’
Mr. Estee takes his defeat philosophically
but feels somewhat sore over xwhat he
claims to he the ' '
influence wielded
by the boodle wire
pullers. In an in—
terview at Sacra—

result of the clec$

nounced, he said;,"
“I have nothing to
say for publica— I
tion except that I '.- ..

cause I had not
votes enough. No
poor man has a
chance to aspire to office in California. I
do not pretend to say that money'was used
for the election of Mr. Eelton, but he cer-
tainly had with him the influence of great
corporations like the Alaska Seal Fur
company, sugar refiners, the Federal, brig-
ade, etc. The men who stood by me' are
men against whom there has never been a
' breath of suspicion.

and wished him many happy days. I am

THE BUTTINGEB MYSTERY.

lo More Light Thrown on the Peculiar
Afl‘nlr as Yet.

NEW YORK, March 21.—-District Attor-
ney Fitzgeraldmet Inspector Byrnes in the
court of special sessions about noon Fri-
day. He was introduced by Von Gerich—
ten. The three men went to police head-
quarters, and had along conference in the
inspector’s private room.

The inquest on Ruttinger’s body will be
resumed at Firemen’s Hall, Tottenville, at
[0 o’clock.

Another man who knew Ruttinger has
turned up. Clemens Foell is a German
young man who has not been long in this
country. He cannot speak English.

He said through an interpreter:

It is a fact that I knew Mr. Ruttinger
very well. He was for many years the
head man in a leading merchandise house
in Plouen, Saxony. He received a salary
.Of at least 4,000 marks per year.

Ivms in the lace curtain business for
several years, and was brought in contact
with him almost daily. I had no difficulty
in identifying his photograph.

Everybody liked and respected him. He
was a good man. A few years ago he re-
tired from the firm he was employed by
and associated himself with Herman Fern-
oach, who is now a citizen of Plouen.

_ It was understood that when he went to
London, about eighteen months ago, he
had accumulated 100,000 marks. He was
in business for himself two. years. When
he was-a young man he was an officer in
the German army.

His wife was a small, dark complex~
ioned woman, who was quite pretty.- Ap-
parently Ruttinger lived on good terms
with her. He did not trouble himself
with other women—that is, I never heard
of him doing so.

He owned his own house and moved in
good circles. He never drank to my
kndwledge, and I don’t believe he was
ever drunk in his life.

The last time I saw him was in Plouen
He was then visiting
there, having come from London. Did I
know \Vright? No; I never heard of him
in any way.

THE ICEYSTONE BANK CLOSED.

 

lts Doors (lrdered‘Shut by the National
_ Bank Examiner.

PiliLADELl’lllA, March 2l.—On the door
of the Keystone bank at 10:45 Friday
morning was pasted this notice:

“This bank closed by order of the comp-
troller of the currency until further notice.

“W. P. DREW,
“National Bank Examiner”

The closing was sudden and quiet.
There Were but few in the building at the
time :and hardly any one in the street.
The mews quickly spread, however, but
the intelligence did not arouse much ex-
citement. The recent run on the bank
had not been forgotten, and it was recalled ;
at once and discussed in .all its bearings.
The city has a- large deposit always in the
bank. It has now about $400,000. City
Treasurer Bardsley could not be seen, and
whether or not the money is protected
could not be learned.

Manager Boyd, of the clearing house,
stated that the bank had an unpaid debt
of $40,000 standing against it there. It
.was contracted during the run on the
bank which occurred last Novemberdur-
ing'the financial crisis. At that time the
bank was besieged for several days and
several hundred thousand dollars was paid
out. The timely aid of the clearing house
and other financial institutiOns at that
time saved it. The present trouble is s'up-'
posed to be indirectly caused by that.

The Keystone bank had asurplus and
undivided profits of $128,569. The presi-
dent was S. W. Marsh and the cashier
Jonathan Hays.

TERRORIZED BOHEBIIANS.

They Are Compelled to \Vork Like
Slaves Under the Lash.

NEW YORK, March '21.——R. Herce, the
correspondent of the Bohemian paper of
this city, whowent to Pocohontas, W. Vii,

_- to investigate the reported cruel treatment
Of Bohemians employed on the extension
of the Norfolk and \Vestern railroad, has
returned, bringing with him three men
and a woman whomghc rescued from one
of the camps. Mr. Herce says the bosses,
about/a dozen in number, were armed with
Winchesters and revolvers, and a pack of
bloodhounds was kept chained .close by.

He was told there were no Bohemians 1n
the camp, but he had all the men mar-
shaled before him and picked out thirteen
Who, upon his promise of protection,
acknowledged that they were Bohemians.
Ten of the men be secured employment for
elsewhere, while the other three and the
woman came on to New York with him.

. The men say they were compelled to
work like slaves under the ' lash, were
watched night and day and chased by blood
hounds if they attempted to escape. They
had hardly suflicient clothing to cover

the wintry blasts at night but that afforded
by the loosely built log “shacks.” Their
beds consisted of leaves, with the frozen
earth for a pillow.

Got Tired of Supporting the Family.

ZANESVILLE, 0., March 21,—The body
Of George Poorman was fished from the
Muskingum river, where he had drowned
himself. Although young, strong and
healthy, a letter which was found among
his effects said that as his father and

Sensations Crowd Each Other Rap-
idly in the Crescent City.

THE JURY BBIBING MATTER.

It Will Be Disposed of Before the Grand
Jury Takes Up the Lynching Busi-
ness—No Expectation That the

' Leaders Will Be Called.

NEW ORLEANS, March 2l.—Sensations
:rowd each other rapidly in the Crescent
City these days. On the one hand, the half
:razed widow of Frank Waters swears
vengeance over her dead husband’s body
on Arthur Dunn, his murderer.

On the other, the grand jury suddenly
springs upon the public the announcement
that all the time while the now absent
Detective O’Malley was maturing his'al-
leged plans for jury bribing, the city hada
paid spy right at his elbow in the person
of John C. Collins, O’Malley’s trusted sec-
retary lmd lieutenant.

Then there is the unusual proceeding of

deliberation in amatter of investigation
usually left to the duly appointed agents
of a court of law. .

This body, acting as a self appointed
grand jury, superior to judge and circum-
stances, proves the charges of corruption

ble petit jury which rendered the mis-
chievous verdict of a week ago today, and
declares that it will startle the people with
the developments it will bring forth.
A Spy on a. Spy.
The man Collins was before the regular

have told a very interesting story of
O’Mallcy’s dealings. The witness has been
a regularly commissioned member of the
city detective force since Nov. 15, a month
after Chief Hennessy’s murder, and has
been in O’Malley’s office since about that
time, making regular reports to Mayor
Shakespeare, who in turn reported to the
citizens’ committee. ,

These facts show how far back the move-
ment extends-and how thOroughly it was
organized—which culminated in the lynch-
ing of March 14. .

It is announced that the grand jury,
' though it will eventually take up the
lynching, as instructed by Judge Marr,
has not done so as yet, and will not until
the jury bribing matter is disposed of.

The general belief is, despite this an—
nouncement, that the mob’s leaders will
never be summoned, and that the impossi-
bility Of convicting or punishing anybody
for the killing of the Italians will be silent-
ly recognized by failure to take any action.

More Threatening Letters.
~ ST. LOUIS, March 21.—"Dispatches"’from
Texas say the New Orleans Mafia are send-
ing threatening letters to, persons who

ods.

John Lang, a wealthy and prominent
citizen of Houston, has receivedaletter
purporting to have been signed by Mafia
authorities, warning him to keep his
mouth shut or he will be done for. It is
written in red ink, with the customary
skull and cross bones, and there is no mis-
taking the intent of the warning.

Consul Costiglio’s Manifesto.

CHICAGO, March 21.——Count Malassero di
Costiglio. consul of Italy at Chicago, has
issued the following manifesto through
the Italian press of the city, pursuant to
instructions from the Italian minister at
W'ashin gton:

_ Considering the great agitation through~
'- out our‘local colonies in America, caused
by the events at New Orleans, I make
through you a confident appeal to their
patriotism, requesting them to show them-
selves atvthis time worthy of that most
civilized country which gave them birth
by observing :unon g themselves a strictly
peaceful and lawful behavior.

 

Senator Allison‘s Opinion.
DUBUQUE, 1a., March 21.——\Vhile in New
Orleans the other day Senator Allison was
seen by an Associated Press reporter, who
telegraphed that the senator had strongly
denounced the killing of the Italians, and
asserted that the evidence brought out was
not strong enough to convict them.
Senator Allison has emphatically denied
the statement, saying that all but two of
the slaughtered Italians were known to be
guilty. He also said the United States
could net be held liable for indemnity.

Here’s a Startler.

WHEELING, March 21.—News has reached
here that about 2,000 Italians working on
thePittsburg, Ohio Valley and Cincin-
nati railroad and a pipe line, about eight-
een miles below Bellaire, are organized
and are drilled in companies and a regi-
ment. They are also receiving guns.

It is said that they have organized on ac-
count of an order issued from Chicago.
The people in the vicinity are‘consider-
ably alarmedover the matter.

,Bufl‘alo Italians Protest.

BUFFALo, March 21.—A large mass meet-
ing ofItalians was held here to take action
on the lynching of their countrymen at
New Orleans.

Resolutions were adopted denouncing
the “infamous injustice committed at New
Orleans,” and asking the United States
,. government to investigate.

, Approve of the Lynching.
,HASTINGS, Neb., March 21.—The board
of trade has adopted resolutions tendering

‘upholds the will and settles the historic
controversy. The baroness, a native of St.
