GOLD STOLEN
FROM THE MINT
Foreman of the Rolling-Mill and an Outside
Accomplice Placed Under
Arrest.
Metal Has Been Systematically Carried Away for Three
Years Under the Eyes of Watchful
Detectives.

Mint.
some time past the authorities in
charge of the Mint have been puzzled

could not be reasonably accounted for
CLARKSON, THE ACCUSED MINT EMPLOYE.
in any manner other than that some
body was pilfering the precious metaL
iionth after month a? the accounts
were balanced the deficiency was not
ed, but it was Impossible to trace it to
any one department, and the conclu
sion was reached that somebody was
subjecting the gold to the "sweating"
process and carrying it away in quan
tities bo small as to escape detection.
■ The usual caution was redoubled, and
. every employe who could possibly be
connected with it in any way was
closely shadowed; but this also proved
useless. Under the most rigid scrutiny
nothing out of the way could be dis
.covered, and the stealing continued as
regularly as before.
S ing that they could do nothing
selves, the authorities placed the
ter in the- hands of Secret Agent
Harris. This was about two years ago,
and during all that time the gold has
been systematically carried away in
small quantities so cleverly as to elude
the most vigilant watchers. No one
n could be suspected, as the work
was done so neatly as to make it im
.>]>■ to suspect anybody.
Despairing of finding the culprit un
aided Mr. Harris placed the matter in
Morse's hands while continuing to work
with him. Morse and his assistants
took hold of the case, realizing the
magnitude of their undertaking, but
confident of a successful termination
of their efforts. For a time they w.-re
completely baffled. The shadowing sys
tem was renewed, and each employe
who had anything to do with the hand
ling of the gold was, unknown to him
self, under the eyes of a detective, who
watched his every movement until con
vinced of his innocence.
The real culprit, however, was still
bright enough to elude the watchers,
and the pilfering went on as merrily as
before.
Drawing the natural conclusion that
after the goid was abstracted from the
Mint it was disposed of somewhere
within the city, Morse set himself to
watch on the outside, and his vigilance
was soon rewarded. He made the dis
covery that Eggers was disposing of
: "slugs of gold, and that the source
from which he obtained tlie.se was
somewhat enveloped in mystery. This
led to a watching of Eggers' associates,
and the suspicion soon fell on Clark
son, who was watched by Captain <"al
lunden and Agent Harris until the lat
ter was removed and his place was
filled by Sprague.
Although confident that he had the
right man, Morse delayed the arrest
knowing that the time would soon ar
rive when more of the stclen metal
must be disposed of and preferring to
catch the culprits red-handed. In this
he was successful. Yesterday he placed
Eggers under arrest, and at the same
time Sprague and Callunden took
Clarkson into custody. The men were
taken before Marshal Barry Baldwin
barged with the crime. Clarkson,
who is believr d to be the real culprit, I
was held in default of $5000 bail, but
rs was simply held as a witness !
•. as released on his own recogni
■
The most important evidence against
the men is a slug of gold found in Eg
possession, and valued at about
• has the appearance of bavins
been melted in a blacksmith's forge.
It is believed that Clarkson, who
handled a great deal of the gold, would
Lge to secrete small chips of it
about Ins person when no one was
watching. These would not readily be
missed, as their weight would be In
nnit< slrnal alone, and they could read- I
ily be carried away and melted down
into slugs in any convenient furnace.
The pilfering has now been going on
for about three years, and the loss has
averaged about $1000 a year. The credit
is due to Morse and his assistants for
the clever way in which they managed
the investigation and the speed with
which they brought the criminals to
Justice. •
Clarkßon, .when seen at the County
Jail last ni.s:ht, said ho expected to be
able to prove his Innocence of the
charges made against him.
"My arrest does not bother me," said
he, "for I know that I am innocent.
The fact that nay wife was refused
mo." he added.
"bothers me more than the charge. T
am the victim of a job and time will
prove that I am .correct."
"Who would have an interest In job
binLr you?" was aslced.
"I cannot say just now," replied
Clark.--;:, "but I can say Coiner Spotts
has no love for me. He has been nag
ging at me all the time, and on more
than one occasion I told him in very
plain Saxon what I thought of him.
My previous record will now stand me
in hand. For eight years I was Deputy
Sheriff and constable in Siskiyo-u Coun
ty, and not a complaint was made
against me.
"I have always borne a good name,
and notwithstanding the fact that I
am now in jaU, it will remain, for I will
prove to the satisfaction of all that I
am innocent. Eggers said that I gave
him gold. That is true. I often gave
him gold when settling the family gro
cery bill at his store on the corner of
Hyde and Eddys treets.
"I never wronged him or any other
man living, and I defy any one to prove
the contrary. Were I at home in Sis
kiyou, where I am known, I would not
be many minutes in jail. I could read
ily find bondsmen. I am content to re

THE SAN FRAXCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1898.
ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT INTERFERED.
Alaska Packers' Association flakes Its Opening Statement in Answer to the
Allegations of the Pacific Whaling Company.
Seines of the Pacific Whaling Company at Rest Prior to the Con=
test of Litigants' Employes.
The defense In the action of the Pa
cific Whaling Company against the
Alaska Packers' Association for $100,
000 damages made its opening state
ment in Judge Hunt's court yesterday.
The plaintiff in the suit alleges that the
defendant, contrary to law, interfered
with its employes while they were en
gaged in fishing for salmon at Carluk
Spits and Tanglefoot Inlet. It is con
tended that while the employes of the
Pacific Whaling Company were busily
NOT IN THE
RACE FOR
GOVERNOR
W. W. Foote States
His Position in
Positive Terms.
Would Not Accept a Cer
tificate of Election to
the Office.
But the United States Senator
ship Is a Different
Matter.
WOULD SUCCEED WHITE.
His Friends Say That at the Proper
Time He Will Announce
His Candidacy.
Out of the confusion into which the
Democracy of California has been
thrown by the positive announcement
of Senator Stephen M. White that un
der no circumstances will he be a can
didate for re-election have sprung many
rumors, indicating a general shaking-
up in the party.
W. W. Foote was seen last evening,
and, in reply to a question as to what
effect Senator White's decision would
have on the fa'! election, said that,
while the Senator's determination not
to become a candidate for re-election
was a loss to the Democratic party. It
was a far greater loss to the people of
the State.
"Senator White is beyond question
the best man for the position in the
State," said Mr. Foote. "Honest and
fearless, he is a man of brilliant at
tainments, and during his Senatorial
career he has earned the respect of his
colleagues, without regard to party.

engaged one day drawing In the seines,
which were full of fish, the defendant
sent its steamer and men to prevent
the landing of the salmon, and that In
the disturbance that followed the ob
ject of the contending forces was
brought about. Through such interfer
ence the plaintiff avers that it has been
damaged in thr sum sued for and asks
that judgment 1"' given accordingly. In
the opening statement of the defense
yesterday it was contended that the
beach upon which the Pacific Steam
This is amply proved by the honors
showered upon him — honors that few
men have gained ■hiring their first term
in that body. Notably in that respect
was his appointment to the Foreign
Affairs Committee ;uid his selection, as
chairman of the Democratic Congres
aional Campaign Committee.
"Senator White had been installed in
his seat but a short time when the
other Senators began to realize that
when he had anything to say it was
worth listening to, and he soon gained
recognition as one of the readiest de
baters and most eloquent statesmen
on the tloor of the Senate.
"Just what effect Senator White's re
tirement from politics will have upon
the Democratic party and the State
election next fall I am unable to say,
but I do know that it will be difficult,
if not impossible, for either party to
find his equal as a statesman."
"There has been considerable talk re
cently that you would enter the Gu
bernatorial race; Is such your intention,
Mr. Foote?"
"If the people of California were to
tender me a certificate of election and
promise to Increase the salary to $20,000
a year I would not accept the office of
Governor. 1 do not want the office, and
would not accept it under any circum
stances."
Mr. Foote made this declaration with
a vehemence that gave unmistakable
proof that he meant just what he said.
"How about the S. natorship — would
you accept that?' was the next ques
tion.
"Well, that is a different matter al
together," replied Mr. Foote, reflect
ively: "but I do not care to discuss that
subject at present."
From a number of Mr. F<>ote's closest
friends, who were questioned on the
subject, it was ascertained that at the
proper time he will make known his
candidacy for the Senat"ishp to suc
ceed White.
Six years ago Mr. Foote's consent
was obtained to having his name
placed before the Legislature for Sen
ator in opposition to White, upon the
representation of the agents of the
proprietor of the Mission street yel
low poster that White's election was
impossible and that unless Foote con
sented to become a candidate ali sorts
