San Fuancisco, Feb. 25.—The
arrest of Duncan Ims been the
theme of conversation in the city
to-iluy. Although it lias been con
stantly believed in well informed
circles that police arrangements
were bir'li a* to cause his ultimate
capture, the announcement came
unexpectedly and many were slow
to believe it although published In
all the morning papers. The full
history of the means taken to se
cure his ariest would fill a volume
aud show clearly the great difllcul
ty which has been experienced in
capturing a fugitive who has been
all the timo within
au arm's reach of the
the authorities. Notwltbslanding
tbe time that lias elapsed since
Duncan's disappearance tlie police
authorities claim that at no time
has it been possible for him to leave
the city without detection and cap
ture; that officers have been con
stantly detailed to watch all tlie
ferry streets; two others have made
it their especial duty to examine
every deep water vessel leaving
porl, while four more have seca to
it that not a coaster, tug, fishing
smack or craft of any description
has left the city without being
searched. In addition to these
precautious, Captain Lees and
one policeman, with a number of
assistants, has maintained a watch
over all water craft. One officer
has been constantly on duty at the
Pacific Mail dock, and twoou Long
Bridge; two others in a boat have
watched the bay beyond Hunter's
Point, keeping at their posts during
all the stormy weather that has
prevailed for tlie last six weeks.
Two men have been all tlie time
stationed at Ban Bruno; two roouut
ed men have patrolled the water
front nud eight have been scouring
South Han Francisco, while six
horsemen, including four detec
tives, have exercised a general sur
veillance over the peninsula be
yond tbe cily limits. Every man
to whom any suspicion attached
bus been shadowed, anil four men
have been constantly employed in
working up the case about tlie ci y.
There have also beeu ollicers with
boats on the ocean beach, ranging
south us fur as Monterey Bay,
boarding vessels and preventing
communication from the shore.
I>llfiv«.» ImrrVlewrd.
San Fbancisco, Feb. 25.—A1l
the morning papers publish inter
views with Duncan. They are all
to the same general effect. Hu de
nies having been guilty of crime;
says his bauds are clean as regards
any misappropriation of funds of
the bank; that be expected lo pull
through up to the very time of
closing tlie bank. He accounts
for tbe failure by the decline in
business since tlie suspension of
the Bank of California, and Ihe
usurious rales of interest lie was
compelled lo pay ou loans to keep
afloat. He denies having raised
tlie certificates of .Safe Deposit
Stock, saddling that ou I,«uarnc.
He declines to give any account of
his adventures since his disap
pearance, on the ground that
it might make trouble for
friends who have assisted hint. He
says he never intended to leave
the city, and would not have con
cealed himself except at the solici
tation of friends; that his sole at
tempt to escape was in com
pliance witli their desire, stim
ulated by the fear that
be would he mobbed by
the Kearney crowd if captuied.
Had it not been for that tear he
would have given himself up long
ago. He believes, if given an op
portunity, lie can save the deposi
tors much from the ruins of the
bank, ami will use every exertion
to that end.
Sl»rU AlMt.ll I>iM.CI»
San Francisco, Feb. 25.—Some
idea of the the difficulty of the un
dertaking In the capture of Duncan
may be obtained from tlie consider
ation of tho fact that, when Ned
McGowan was wanted years ago by
the Vigilance Committee, about
sixty thousand dollars were ex
pended on detective work on the
peninsula of Sau Francisco, on
which he remained all the time,
without success. During the hunt
after Duncan the police have
searched over one hundred houses
in the city, a list of which will be
furnished at some future lime.
After tho arrest this morn
ing the house where lie was
fouud was subject to a close
examination aud it was found to be
admirably adapted for purposes of
concealment and escape. It is near
tlie corner of California on tlie
west side of Kearny street, anil
Duncan's room was on the third
floor ln the rear of tlie building.
From his window one could step
upon tlie roof of tho adjoining
building on the corner of California
street, then to the top of yet anoth
er building, from which a ladder
reached to the roof of v low shed,
whence the ground could bo easily
gained, and the fugitive would
then have tlie choice of several av
enues of escape. Whendesceut was
made ou tbe house. All these ave
nues were carefully guarded and a
policeman ascended by the route
above indicated, and took a posi
tion under Duncan's window.
Duncan had but little to say after
his arrest. He is ill iv body and
mind, suffering Irom uervous pros
tration besides a recent severe at
tack of pneumonia. He is penny
less, having exhausted iiis means
iv attempts to escape and
devices for concealment. Ho
took witli him on his dis
appearance about nine thousand
dollars all of which has beeu used
up and at the time of capture lie
had but a dollar aud a half iv his
possession, and he claims that be
did his utmost lo save the deposit
ors of the bank aud that his funds
were dissipated in his attempts to
meet the payments falling due and
keep the concern above water. Ho
also states that he has been in con
stant fear of being mobbed if cap
tured and that that fear has had a
strong influence to deter him from
surrendering himself. By advice
of his counsel all access is deuied
LOS ANGELES, TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 26, 1878.
to him except to mem
bers of his family, all
all of whom are witli him in
prison. On searching the room in
which lie was captured an ingen
ous device for concealment was
discovered. The drawers of the
bureau bad all been taken out and
the inner portion of tlie drawers
removed. On a knock at tbe door
it was only necessary for the fugi
tive lo crouch within Ihe bureau,
which was then pushed against the
wall, preserving a most innocent
aspect. It has been ascertained
that there was na mistake about
Duncan being ou board tlie tug
H. itedmond, last Sunday morning
when chased over the bay by the
ollicers, and it is understood that
the case agaiust J. 0. Merrill, for
complicity in that nll'uir, will be
pushed vigorously.
iHlucnii'4 nrec'M.
San Fuancisco, Feb. 85.— An
examination of Duncan's i Heels,
found in the room where he was
captured, in connection with cci*
tain documents elsewhere discov
ered, throw additional light on Ids
attempted escape to Central Atner
lco ou the schooner K. J. Me-
Kinnon. First in order is a
letter evidently from Duncan's
youngest son Joseph, dated Tues
day, February 11th. The writer
bids his father good bye, with the
hope that, in a few months, all the
family will be together again lv a
new home. He regrets the long
aud tiresome journeys which Dun
cati has in prospect, but admits It is
his only chance to get away, us
another mouth in the city would
exhaust their means when they
would be able to do nothing. He
congratulates Duncan on having his
travelling companion us he Is fa
miliar with the country where they
are going and speaks the language;
(this evidently refers to Harry Mid
dleton who, it has beeu alleged,
was with Duncan in his attempted
flight on the schooner a week ago
yesterday). The letter closes with
the assurance that ihe family, in
cluding Mrs. Lewarne, will join
Duncan and Frank (evidently
Lewarne) as soon as they receive
| news of their safe arrival. Next in
| sequence is the following rather
suggestive document, which has
been unearthed by tin- police in the
hands ul a friend of Duncan's who
is at present namelees: San Fran
cisco, Feb. 6th, 1878.—$1,000—Re
-1 ceived from O. C. 'fowler one thou
sand dollars for passage tnouey of
Don Juan Batista and servant to
any port in Central America lie
may desire via schooner E. J. Mc-
KinnOn—Captain Jenks. Should
the said vessel not notify
said passengers within ten days
from date that she is ready to pro
ceed by sea, and remain for live
daysaftcr said notification, if so or
dered by said Don Juan Batista,
the above amount, $1,000 will be
refunded to any one presenting
this document, with or
without endorsement. (Signed,)
J. C. Merrill, per R. T. Thomas.
This document will lie Introduced
in the examination of Merrill,
which will be continued in tlie po
lice court this afternoon. It lends
to effectually disprove the state
ments heretofore made that
McKinuon had no passengers en
gaged and that no money had been
paid for a passage. Another letter
was found among Duncan's effects,
evidently from one of his children,
to some other member of the
funiily, but lacking date, address
or signature. It is not of material
interest except as it indicates plans
being considered for the escupe of
the fugitive banker by way of Oak
land, Redwood City and oilier
avenues of exit from Han Fran
cisco.

Panama, Feb. 16.—The •Star and
Herald Hiiya that Messrs. Contreras
and Hoilas, two of (ho parly who
took possession of the American
schooner Sunbeam at Port Simon,
state that their action was not in
any manner intended as an act of
piracy; they were pursued by a
superior force and it was a matter
of life and death under the circum
stances. They offered the captain
of the schooner money to take
them away, which he refused, and
they then took possession of the
vessol by show of arms and force,
but did no violence to person or
property and meant no insult to the
United States.

New York, Feb. 25th.—Tlie
Tribune's Washington special says
that a new Texas and Pacific rail
j road bill lias beeu drawn which
will be introduced in the House
within a day or two. It is said to
be acceptable to Mr. Huntington
und the Southern Pacific interest
aud will probably be opposed by
Col. Scott. The new bill provides
for a government guarantee of
bonds to the extent of only $10,000
a mile thus reducing the responsi
bility of tlie government to the
extent of interest on about seven
teen millions. The new bill also
provides for branch lines to New
Orleans, Memphis and Vicksburg.
Majority and minority reports
to the lower House of Congress
have been mado un the subject of
the Texas and Pacific hy the Com
mittee on Pacific Railroads. The
former proposes to aid by a grant
of land and guarantee of interest,
and the latter opposes the majority
bill ou the ground of unconstitu
tionality of subsidies to railroads
and the lack of necessity for it in
this particular case.

I'KliA, Feb. 25.—As v reward for
the Porte's ineffectual efforts to keep
the British fleet out of tho Darda

Russians shall not come nearer
Constantinople than Sun Stefano,
but at the same time has informed
the Porte that lie hud great diffi

Nicholas from marching into
Constantinople as a con

exactly on the invitation of the

and the payment to Russia of 10,

Kewing Norings
A correspondent of the Coso
Mining News hus the following in
reference to a rich mine at Resting
Springs which is being developed
hy I.os Angeles capital:
The Uunsight mine has reached
the greatest depth and is claimed
as the champion mine of the dis
trict; they are Jown now 380 feet,
and still sinking. This mine is situ
ated in limestone, has a northeast
aud southwest course, dips to the
east at an angle of some 45 degrees
aud on the surface is about two feet
in width; but as I hey have worked
down upou it has increased to
eight feet, or from a hundred feet
below tlie surface has shown au ave
rage of fully 60 feet in witdh. This
mine, with several others of appa
rent merit, is owned by the Los
Angeles Mining aud Smelling Com
pany, who have now In successful
operution a 40-tou furnace, lately
erected io place of a small one put
up la-a year for the purpose of test
ing their ores. They have fully a
thousand tons of ore out heir dump
at the mine and nearly as much at
the furuace. The ore has a close
resemblance to tlie Lucky Jim ore
of Darwin, and, I should judge,
quite as rich iv silver. The man
agement of this Company's affairs
is in very competent hands and
the Superintendent, Mr. Osboruu,
has successfully surmounted many
obstacles and added another star to
California's galaxy of successful
mining districts.
