They were not a bad-looklng lot. Some were branded on the hip and others on the Jaw. That on the hip waa aa large as a band, but It was not deep, and waa almost hidden by tbe overlapping h&ire. That on the jaw was small and not easily found. Soon after the horses were unloaded, bold men entered some of the pens and patted a horse here and there. The animals had been a week on the care during the long trip from the Northwest, and they had lost their nerve. When they had rested a day and a half and had filled up on good hay, they regained their ginger and no one cared to enter the

pens on the day of sale.

They were of draft and trotting stock, principally small horses, of Southern slse and weight, with some blocky ones, ,000 to 1,200 pounds. In age they ranged rom weanling colts to six-year-olds.

Told How He Would Act on th# Scaffold — Police Gather Evidence About Mall&daj and Hedges. A web of circumstantial evidence la being slowly woven about William Malladay and his" pal. Frank Hedges, with which It le expected to convict both m*n of the murder of Mrs. John Wilhelm. Important Information was gathered yesterday evening by Superintendent Quigley and Captain Kinney, both of whom went over the ground supposed to have been covered by the murderer*. Annie Cook and Kate Heier, employed In Jacob Bechtel's saloon and restaurant, at 1601 West Michigan street, said they were In the dining room of the restaurant shortly after 9 o'clock Wednesday night, when Malladay came In. The restaurant Is only six or eight blocks from tha place where the body of Mrs. Wilhelm was found. His clothlng.they said,waa covered with mud and sand and the bottom of hi* trousers were wet. He made the remark that he had fallen Into tha river. He greeted Bob Arnold and Bechtel, who were In the place, and he seemed to be composed. A few minutes later, however, he began to pace up and down the room In an excited way. saying to Bechtel that it was the last time he would ever be In the place. When asked If he Intended to kill himself he said: "Bechtel, If I am arrested to-night, you will bring me a piece of tobacco, won’t youT** Malladay frequently talked incoherently, showing that he was laboring under excitement. One of his remarks was: "When they get a rope around my neck, you com* and see If I quiver at the knees.” He continued to talk about rope about his neck and aald ha would be game through everything. Malladay wanted to stay at tha house all night, but wae Informed that there were no spar* beds. He offered Arnold a silver dollar, for permission to occupy half of hie bed, and when Informed that Arnold and Bechtel slept together, he Increased the offer a dollar at a time until he had placed ft or 67 on the table. Malladay continued to talk, and mentioned the hanging of Guetig. Achey and Merrick in this city years ago. He said he would be game, and not act like Guetig, who collapsed on the gallows when hanged here. Thle statement by the women, which wae corroborated by Bechtel, strengthens the belief that Mrs. Wilhelm waa murdered about 9 o'clock In the evening. in spite of the statements made by Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Osborn that Mallady. Hedges and Mrs. Wilhelm were eeen standing by the river bridge about 10 o'clock. Osborn, however, le not sure

of the time.

Mai lady admits that Hedges waa with him between 7 and 6 o’clock, but Insists that they separated In the course of

half an hour.

All the loungers about Brown's barrel house saw the trio together about thle time, and several say they walked toward tbe river. The confusion In the time of the different happenings made by the several witnesses le causing the police trouble. Except for the story of Osborn and his wife, the police say that they can account for every moment of Malladay'e and Hedges'* time un to the hour when the murder wae supposed to have been committed. Both men “stand pat" and refuse to make any statement that will count against them in the evidence. The coroner Is busy collecting evidence In the murder case and has taken testimony from Sarah E. Clark. 944 West Washington street; Florence Wright. No. 946; Mr. and Mr*. eBmard Osborn. No. 926; Louts Brown, saloon keeper; Moses Alderson, No. 934; MeU Glthens, No. 844, and William Wehlerman, the watchman at the sand plant. Mell IGthens said he was sleeping tn a tent near the river, where be Is constructing a boat, when he waa awakened by a sound ot struggling about 9:90 o’clock Wednesday night. He heard some one aay: "Larry, get on your feet." The testimony of th* others Is substantially the same ae ha

been printed.

Mrs. EllsabeUP-arifflth, of this city, says: "Englhh writers, with years of residence In these Islands tall us, and our own observations reveal, that these people (the Tagalo chiefs) are aelfieh. arrogant, cruel and treacherous, and almost devoid of gratitude.
