Thieves have again been plying their vo- cation in this neighborhood. The houses of Mr. L. H. Campbell and Mr. W. I. Smith were broken into at an early nour yester- day morning. The robber effected his en- trance to the former house through the bay window of the dining room, having first made an ineffectual effort to yet in through the cellar. He then barred the door lead- ing to the Kitchen with a drawer taken from the sideboard, opened the doors com- municating with the parlor 1nd hall, and with a lighted candle proceeded to recon- noiter downstairs. Mrs. Campbeél, who was upstairs, was awakened by the noise, and thinking it was the servant called to her. The servant then answered from her room upstairs, and Mrs. Campbell, con- cluding it was~a burglar, roused her hus- band, who, taking his revdlver, made his way down stairs. On hearing the voices of Mr. Campbell and his wife the man ex- tinguished the candle, ran frantically up and down the dining room and parlor, and finally made his exit by breaking through the parlor window. The carpets and fur- niture in the two rooms were covered with candle grease, but the burglar only suc- ceeded in getting away with fifty cents and a bag of tobacco, whick were in the overcoat pockets of Mr. Campbell. Two thieves got into the hcuse of Mr. Smith through the kitchen window, and after helping themselves downstairs to a silver thimble, several pairs of scissors and a purse containing about $5, belonging to Mrs, Smith, scattering-peanut shells over county the floor, beside decorating It with tobacco ee they went upstairs in the second story. and ransacked a trunk. The family were occupying the third floor, and the burglars did not visit this floor. The thieves were frightened off by hearing the baby- scream and its mother call to it. Tracks were discovered in the yard yesterday morning, and it is thought that the same men made an effort to get into the house occupied by Mr. Nesbit, which is back of Mr. Smith’s house, and is owned by Mr. Ralston. Mr. Betts’ house at- Highlands was broken into that morning, but the thieves were frightened off before they could secure anything.

Peruvian Insurgents ‘and Government ‘Troops in a Battle. _ A special cable dispatch to t.e New York Herald says that the Peruvian rebels and government troops have been fighting in Lima for several days. The attack by the rebels began about 4 o’clock Sunday_morn- ing. The rebels were commanded by their chief, Pierola, assisted by Durand, Ore and others. All communication with Lima has been cut off, ard it was impossible to learn the strength of either force, All reports are on rumors and speculation. It is known, however, that there was a heavy cannon and musketry fire on Sunday and Monday. This continued almost with- out cessation until sundown on Monday. Distinct explosions were heard on Monday, but the place where they occurred is not known. There was a renewal of the firing at 5 o'clock yesterday morning, which continued for six hours. It is reported that the fight- ing last night ceased so as to permit the contending forces to care for the dead and ‘wounded, —___+e0______ Silver Will Be Favored More. Baron Richthofen of Germany, who of re- cent years has lived in London, is in New ‘York. He has extensive land and mining in- terests in Colorado, and his presence here at this time is to look after them. Speaking of the approaching international monetary conference, he-said: “The United States is @ big factor in the world’s financial fluctua- tions.e The options of her representatives at an international mone’ conference cannot be regarded lightly. I think that at the next conference silver will be fav- ored more than it has been in the past. Sentiment is growing and I see that al- ready a bimetallic party has been organ- ized in this country.” EEE The Lexow Committee Criticised. The Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst of New York criticises the Lexow committee of the New York senate as being worse than the Fassett committee. Dr. Parkhurst says: “The Lexow committee is not only a re- production of the Fassett committee, but a mighty sight worse, for, while the Fassett committee went into our criminal condition @ little and did nothing, the Lexow com- mittee went a great way, spent eight months in investigation with the best of appliances at hand, arrived at the conclu- sion that our police department was co-n- prehensively in a condition of perdition, went back to Albany, and after having sat for two and a half months, they have only dickered and log-rolled along the lines of patronage, concerned for nothing except to see how much political capital they can make out of our depravity down here.” + Likely to Be Amicably Settled. Lord Kimberley, British secretary of state for ‘foreign affairs, has personally handed to the Nicaraguan minister at thé foreign office the ultimatum of the British govern- ment demanding reparation for the expul- sion from Bluefields of Mr. Hatch, the Brit- ish consular agent. A copy of the docu- ment was cabled to the British minister resident in Nicaragua. Lord Kimberley emphatically demands adequate satisfac- tion from Nicaragua. In British official circles the belief is general that the matter will be amicably settled, and that no dem- onstration by a British squadron will be necessary to enforce the demands of Great Britain. ——___+e-+-_____. Disturbances Threatened in Spain. A military court has ordered that two di- rectors of newspapers at Barcelona, Spain, be arrested for protesting against the ex- cesses of the subalterns in Madrid. Great excitement prevails, and serious disturb+ ances are threatened. Gen. Martinez de Campos, captain general of Madrid, paid another visit to Queen Regent Christina yesterday afternoon. Later it was stated that Premier Sagasta and his colleagues in the cabinet, who had tendered their resig- nations, would probably resume their min- isterial functions, ———__+0-_____ A Complicated Case.

H., to recover $13,000 damages because his wife fell and broke her leg while under the influence of liquor, alleged to have been purchased from the defendants, has become com- Plicated by. the appearance of sec- ond counsel claiming to represent Wells, who has ordered the suit dropped. The lawyer first engaged by Mr. Wells re- fused to permit this. He claims that a combination has beer effected to buy Wells off and threatens to personally push a nuisance charge against certain of the de- fendants if his opponents persist in their endeavors to have the matter dropped.
