JUST BEFORE THE BATTLE. The Republican County Convention Today. Lots of Talk About Mines to Be Bpruug. The Clark Mas Mold a Oanoae and to Fr.Hnt M. O.

Millard Cor Will Hni a Walk-Over. The Republican county convention will meet in Music hall at 10 o'clock this morning, and in some reepecte it will be the most unique and interesting gathering of the o. p. that haa been held here for years. Imprimis, tbe hall will be gaily decorated, and the seats in the rear of the delegates will be reserved lor guests, each of whom is expected to bring a lady with him, in order that there may be a Strong restraining influence to hold the wild-eyed delegates in control and lend an atmosphere ol refinement to the political arena.

The snort-haired tough element will be provided for too; bnt they will not have an opportunity to rudely jostle against the delegates, as they will be located in the galleries. Judge Bilent is in charge of the issuing of the "special tickets, including ladies," and it may be that the judge will stock the lower part of the houae with his friends. There is talk of several big surprises being sprnng on tbe floor rf the convention end ordinarily loquacrious political leaders are mum and mysterious as to their nature. It was stated that the Clark delegates went off quietly by themselves yesterday and indulged iv a caucus, and that it was tbeir intention to go ahead this morning and organize the convention to suit themselves, without regard to any other candidates. It was lsarned at least that McLacblan had not been invited to participate in the quiet little lovefeast.

It has been generally decided that Los Angeles county will not go north divided on the supreme judgeship question. This was brought about by the friends of Judge McKinley making a proposition to Judge Clark that tbe convention today express its preference on the judgeship, and that both candidates be governed by the result. At a late hour yesterday aiternoon Judge Clark agreed to this arrangement. One of tbe interesting featnres of the convention will be the etruggle for delegate-at-large between Capt. H.

Z. Osborne and Jndge R. H. F. Vanel, of tbe Ninth ward.

This is regarded as a stand-up fight between tbe Times and Express, and it looks very much as thongh Osborne would be a winner. Tbe caucus of Judge Clark's friends yesterday afternoon deoided to support 8. Q. Millard for chairman of tbe convention. E.

A. Meseur was his opponent bnt be was knocked ont. Mr. Meseur is authority for the statement that McLacblan was apprised of tbe Clark cancus and conld have been there if he desired. It is proposed that 001.

G. Wiley Wells be made chairman. This proposition is pot forward on the ground that trie colonel is impartial as regards tbe candidates that be wonld make an excellent chairman goes without saying. Ex-Governor L. A.

Sheldon will be a candidate if it is offered to him. J.J. Gosper, be of Arizona fame, is anxious to go to congress as against Hazard and McLacblan. As matters stood last evening it was figured out that McLacblan wonld bave 60 of the 69 votes from this oonnty while Gosper and Hszard wonld divide tbe remaining nine with Gosper leading "Honest Harry." The friends of Judge Olark claim that he will have 80 per cent of the delegates at tbe convention to-day, and they are getting ready to indulge in a Jug red, white and blue pampas parade. On the other band the friends of Judge McKinley claim that a big surprise is in sto'e for Jndge Olark when the rnral districts come to the front.

This, they claim, is McKinley's stronghold, and tbev talk about winning out tbe fight. There is no doubt but that Olark has the call, as far as the oity delegates ara concerned, and it remains to see what tbe agriculturalists will do. THE DELEGATES.

Sheriff Oline, Under Sheriff Brooker' Detective Bowler of tbe Sontbern Patifio company and a posse of 20 deputies left on tbe 7:45 San Francisco train la it evening for Mojave to meet the Industrial army wbo are headed this way. The army reached Mojave yesterday on a special freight train, tbe county of Kern having paid 1400 fare to tbe railroad company to haul the men oat of the county. Sheriff Cline received word yesterday afternoon that trouble was expected, ac the men were determined to keep going.

A telegram from San Francisco announced that the Industrials proposed capturing the first freight train coming south, and it was upon this information that the posse was dispatched to the county line last evening. The officers can do nothing until the men reach Lancaster, which place was probably reached this morning, if they were successful in securing further passage by train. It is understood that unless tbe Industrialists comply with the officers' request to desist, tbey will be arrested, as was done in the case of Vinette and Bernard. Tbe following dispatch was received yesterday afternoon: Bakersfield, June Industrial army left on a special freight train at noon today. Tbe county paid tbe railroad company $400 fare.

A dozen deputy sheriffs went with them to dump them over the county line on the south. Bfarrlaarn Lloeneee.

A CLOUD OF WITNESSES PRESENT The Roscoe Train Robbery Suspects at Last on Trial. Extensive Preparations for a Big- Fight on Each Side. Utnoh Interoit Being- Shown In the Trial Jury Impaneled and the Taking of Testimony B.iaa. On the night of tbe 16th of last February the north bound passenger train on the Southern Pacific railroad was held up at Roscoe station, a few miles north of Burbank, for tbe pnrpoee of robbery, by two or more masked men. Tbe switch was thrown and the engineer paying no attention to the waving of a torch, the train ran off tbe main track upon tbe switoh and the engine ran John Comstoch.

Walter Thome. Pat Fitzimmons. into a bank of sand. Tbe fireman on tbe engine and a tramp riding on the pilot were killed, the fireman being caught between tbe engine and tender and the tramp being etruok by a cylinder bead. Ths express car was attacked by two robbers, wbo blew open a door with dynamite and secured some booty.

The robbery excited a great sensation, as it was tbe second robbery of a train at Roscoe. The attempts of officers of the law to apprehend the robbers were numerous and long continued. Alva Johnson and John Smith were at first thought to be tbe men, but they were acquitted upon examination. Afterwards John Comstock, Walter Thorne aud Pat Fiizsitnmons were arrested for the second robbery. Tbey were also accused of being in the first robbery with John Khouuers.

That charge has been dismissed. The three men mentioned were indicted by the grand jury charged with tbe second robbery, and it is under tbia indictment that tbeir trial bp 'hq yesterday morning in department oik if the superior court, Judge Smith pie iding. The prosecution is represented by District Attorney Dillon and Deputy M. W. Conkling, while tmS attorneys for the defendants are R.

A. Ling and Horace Appel. When court convened at 10 o'clock tbe court room i crowded with jurors, witnesses and spectators, and the number of spectators increased throughout tbe day till it was difficult to find even standing room. Tbe empanneling of a jury was quite a tedious proceeding, although it did not occupy as much time as anticipated. Tbe general questions asked of jurors by tbe defense were aa to tbe reading of newspaper accounts of the robbery and arrest of the defendants, the bias of jurors on account of the charge of the particular offense of train robbery, the confidential or business relations of any kind with the Southern Pacific company, and acquaintance with ex-United States Marshal Gard, Detective Will Smith, Detective J.

V. Brighton and other detectives. At 2:30 o'clock ths jury was completed, tbe following' jurors haying been accepted to try tbe case: John Webber, Fremont Cobb, George Adelbert Chapel, Stephen K. Ibbotson. Wm.

M. Allison, Dillwin C. Andrews, Obarles John Fallon, Phillip Buck, Winchester Gillett, Peter P. Kiefer, Frank Gerling and Henry C. Thomas.

Tbe defense exercised 19 of its 20 peremptory challenges, and the prosecution five. Term trial jurors fiom other departments, who had been in attendance, anticipating a longer straggle, were not needed to make up the jury. When the rule excluding witnesses from the court room was invoked, it was seen that tho defense had about 100 in attendance, a large proportion of whom were from tbe San Fernando valley, the neighbors of tbe accused, while there were 27 witnesses for the prosecution. The testimony taken during the balance of the afternoon was confined principally to tbe statement by trainmen of tbe facta of the robbery, and nothing especially new was elicited. The first witness called by the prosecution was G.

H. OJell, conductor of the train which was held up at Roscoe. He testified as tv the farts of the robbery whicb came under hia observation, He was iv tbe smoking car when tbe train suddenly stopped. He got out and lo ked first ahead. He saw two men, cursing and swearing.

They had guns, aud fired two shots in the ground. He got back tbe train. Tbe men were on tbe southwest the way the train wae headed. He could not tell who the men were. Tbey had on long coats and had what looked grain sacks.

Us judged the men to be between 6 feet 0 inches and 6 feet in height, tbe ground neing uneven at Roscoe station. They were medium built men. The sacks were hung from tbeir shoulders. The conductor beard the teporte of the dynamite bombs. About 15 minntes later one of the passengers in a smoker poked bis head out a window, when some oae on the left-hand fired a shot and said "You keep your in." Tbe witness could not say whether the men were masked or not.

The robbers went away on tbe left side of the train. He saw seven men going away from the train. There were four in a bunch. Two of the men returned to the train, Messenger Edgar and an extra fireman. At first it was clear, tbe moon being a quarter full, then mist came np and by the time tbey left it was beginning to rain.

He saw tbe extra fireman pinned between the engine and tbe tender and as unknown man lying doubled up under tbe cylinder bead. Just as tbey got the fireman out he died. The name of the fireman was Arthur Masters. Henry Foster and Isaac Kilrain were the brakemen on tbe train that night. He could not identify the defendants as the men be saw that night.

F. Brown, living at Ban Fernando, an engineer of the Southern Pacific company, testified that he was on the train that night. "When the train stopped," be said, "very suddenly, I followed Conductor Odell ont of the coach. I saw a man walking along the side of the train, and heard him say 'Get back in I got back. A oouple of shots were fired.

I only saw one man. tie was from 20 to feet from me. He had on a lightcolored overcoat. I should judge he was a man 5 feet 8 inches or 10 inches tall and weighed abont 150 pounds. I did not see the men leave the train.

I paid no attention to the express car. In about 20 minutes I went forward to help extricate the tLema'j." Benjamin La Grange, a young man, a fireman on the Southern Pacific, was on the engine when tbe robbery took place. He was not on duty, but was riding home. He saw (he engineer jump down on tbe deck, the engine went in the ditch, and the fireman was calling for help. He started for help, and two men told him to tbrow up his hands.

They marched him along with them. One of toe men put a bomb on the sill of the door of the express car and told the witness to run, which he did. The bomb exploded and tore a bole in the door. The witness described tbe robbery and tbe securing of money in the express car; tbe carrying of the sacks with the money by himself and Messenger Edgar to a Bhort distance from a low-bedded wagon, to which were attached two horses. The tallest man had a light overcoat and a handkerchief around his face, and the shorter one a dark overcoat with a handkerchief around his face.

They both had on blue overalls. The witness was asked if either of the men were in the court room, and if so to point them out. The defendants stood up, and the witness said that Thorne and Fiizsimmons were similar in eizs to those be saw, and Coms'ock was not tall enough for the larue man and to tall for tbe short man. In the express ear the man with tbe rifle wonld go to the door and shoot down the train on one side, aud then to the other eide and ehoot down that side. He only saw two men.

Engineei Thomae jumped out tbe window and did not come back until all was over. The witness said tbe engineer wanted to know bow badly they were ditched, and when the witness told him fireman was in the cab dying, Thomas said: "The hell he is," and nothing about bis movements in the brush. It is expected that some entirely new witnesses will be produced by the prosecution to-day. by whom they hope to connect the defendants closely with tbe robbery. COURT NOTES.

Main street. DISTINGUISHED GUESTS. Mr. and Bfra. Nordhoff and Mr.

Wade Viait Ut. Lowe. til yesterday the last time (ten. K. H.

ids visited Echo mountain was when he escorted the Lincold-Field party in March. On tbe present occaaion Mrs. aud Miss Wade and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Nordhoff were with him.

Mr. Nordhoff was full of reminiscences of tbe wonderful changes that have transformed the desert waste over which he rode horseback in early years to tbe scenes upon which he now looked down from the veranda of the Echo Mountain villages, orange groves, grain fields, the immense bare tracts of mountains divided into farms and gardens, and presenting tbe appearance of a great chessboard, and the whole valley traversed by two tranacontinental railway lines. What a genius was Professor Lowe to see in that steep and forbidding mountain side tbe possibilities of an enter- prise so nnique, attractive and successful an this mountain railway line with its hotels, observatory and other adjuncts. From among the numerous guests a party consisting of Gen. Wade, Miss Wade, Mrs.

E. Earl of Lob Angeles, tV'm. G. Henshaw of Oaklat dand Orville E. Kinne and Charles T.

Bapst of Huchlund, 111., took saddle animals and climbed the bridle reads to tbe summit of Mount Lowe, enioyed an appetizing lunch of sandwiches, boiled eggs, cake and fruit, washed down with crystal springs mountain brewed beer, clear, sparkling and cold, and seasoned tbeir repast with fresh and original jokes which would add to the reputation of "Joe Miller" if they could have been caught on the fly. General Wade pronounced the scenes disclosed on the trip the finest series of mountain views he ever saw, and he has a very wide range of experience in mountain scenery. Amoug the guests at Echo Mountain were Eugene ttandow, the strong man, Walter Vanderlip, ths comedian, Carrl Roma, the singer, Miss Thrall, the whistler and F. Zirgfeld manager of the Sandow troupe. A section of the great incline cable was handed to Sandow with the request that he should break it.
