MMM m. in all Choice Fresh Meats, where all the evidence secured by the Ensenada court was sent for review. Nothing has been learned of the expected release of Pratt' and Garrett, who are imprisoned with Riveroll, though in their case also the officials have failed to find anything to show guilt. An amusing instance of the misdirected zeal of the Ensenada authorities came to light. Some week3 ago a letter was received at the jail from Mrs. Pratt, directed to her husband. The official court interpreter was sent for and he proceeded to decipher the letter. He got through it Very well with occasional wild guesses, until he. came to the end, and there, in a postscript, he saw the words: "Baby is quite well," This nonplussed him, until he remembered that "well" meant a hole In the ground for providing water. In a second the whole thing flashed through his mind, and he trembled with excitement as he ran to the judge and told him he had captured a letter which gave the whole thing away. "The gold brick is in the well at Pratt's-house,he told the Judge. That official, overjoyed with the news, gave orders that Pratt, Garrett and Riveroll should be placed in solitary confinement, and that visitors should not be allowed to see them under any circumstances. Then a force of soldiers were sent to Pratt's house with orders to pump the well dry and get the brick. The greatest haste was employed and within a few hours the well was pumped dry, and the search began for the bar. Nothing was found, and then the lieutenant in charge of the squad procured shovels and made the soldiers dig at the bottom of the well for three or four hours. But still nothing came to light, and after inspect ing walls and ransacking the bouse the facts were reported to headquar ters. The officials did not know what to make of it. They called for the let ter again and sent for another inter preter. This man happened to understand English, and he soon explained the. situation. He told them that it meant the baby was in good health. The judge discharged the old interpreter on the spot and engaged the new one. He released the prisoners from solitary confinement, and did his utmost to prevent the facts from becoming known. -- " - PARI veal Your patronage solicited.'
