THE SAN FBANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20, 1895 HOLDS BACK A JOKER Why Spain Does Not Hurry in Apologizing to Uncle Sam. ACTING VERY COOLLY. May Call Attention to a Little Incident in the Gulf of Mexico. SPANISH-CUBANS FIRED UPON. Diplomatic Negotiations Relating to the Allianca Affalr Remain Rather Mixed. SHINGTON, March 19. —Informa- id to be at hand that the schooner h recently sailed from Savannah, Ga., after having been watched by the customs officers, on board arms and ammuni- tion concealed under a deckload of lumber. Her destination is supposed to have been Cuba. The Spanish gunboats are on the watch for her. Nothing is known here of the reported a of the Spanish ship Infanta Isabella or Arcedo firing on American vessels. There is good ground. however, for believ- at the ship sailing from Savannah ith Cuban a ms aboard will furnish an actual case of detention if sheis overhauled. Careful inv ation is proceeding as to the cargo shipped by the Allianca at Colon, allegations that arms were ten aboard under cover of darkness having been made. Commnunications e been received in Washington from Cuba that the Conde de Venadito was the Spanish warship firing on the Allianc: These advices said that the latter ship was flying a British flag. There is no further doubt as to the re- Gresham of a reply from nd, but there is reason to believe the published reports have failed to state some important reservations by Spain.

His Affidavits as to the Firing Upon the Allianca. W YORK, March 19.—A cable dis- patch from Havana to the effect that the commander of the Spanish cruiser Conde de Venadito had reported that he fired on the steamer on March 8, off, Cape May, after signaling her, and was replied to by the hoisting of the British flag, has brought forth affidavits from C in Crossman of the Allianca and his officers that the American and not the British ensign was fiying from the staff of the Allianca. The report that the Allianca carried rifles on the southbound trip was also emphatically denied by representatives of the Panama Railroad Company. Captain Crossman’s, affidavit is as fol- lows? Captain James A. Crossmen being duly sworn, deposes and says he has read in the morning - papers of this date, Tuesday, March 19, that the commander of the Spanish gun- boat Conde de Venadito has made the state- ment that the steamship that was off Cape Maysi, Cuba, on the 8th day of March, 189: which was fired on by his gunboat, hoisted the British ensign in saluting him. Inview of this statement he does most solemnly swear that the flag hoisted on the staft of the steamer Alli- anea in salute to the Spanish gunbost off Cape Maysi, Cuba, on the 8th day of March, 1895, by his order and in his presence, was the Amer] can ensign. This is the only flag used for such purposes, the national flag of America. The others who signed a similar affidavit were Benjamin Corning, first officer; F. W. Russell, second officer; W. H. N Churchill, purser; A. 8. Jussen, freight | clerk; E. T. Kingman, surgeon. These affidavits will be forwarded at once to ‘Washington by the company. SENATOE MORGAN'S VIEWS. He Favors Annexation or the Purchase of Cuba. ‘WASHINGTON, March 19. — Senator Morgan of Alabama, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has remained in Washington since the adjourn- ment of Congress and takes an interest in the existing foreign complications. “T do not know what is being done,” he said to an Associated Press reporter, “fur- ther than what is said in the papers from time to time. I am, of course, interested in the sitnation in Cuba. If the revolu- tionists are able to hold out for a year they will be able to secure material assistance from persons in this country, not only in the way of money, butin spite of all ef- forts to prevent it there are many men that are ready to go into a war for Cuba or 2ny other war, and there will be no way of keeping them out of it if the men who are leading this revolt &how that \‘.hey.co[u- mand any strength at home. At first I was inclined to view the uprising as with- out any particular backing, but it appears now that it has grown to be quite for- midable. Those people are not to be blamed for rebelling. It is only a question of time when Cuba will throw lofi th'e Spanish yoke. It may not be with, this revolution, but it will come from future revolution.” re you for purchasing Cuba?'* was asked. X - “I have always been a Cuban annexation- ist,” replied Mr. Morgan. “I am for pur- shasing the island or of any other method upon the question of- the | of acquiring it from Spain. It is an im- portant island for the United States.” The Allianca incident was referred to and Senator Morgan said he approved the course of the State Department in demand- ing an apology and reparation. He de- clared that American merchantmen-can- not lawfully be interfered with upon the high seas. He expressed the opinion that Cuba might be annexed, and said it was a great mistake that San Domingo was not purchased when we had an opportunity. No such chance, he added, should be neg- lected in the future when we were offered islands in the ocean over which we could | exercise control and which were properly a partof the American continental sys- tem and were necessary for the pro- tection of our coast commerce. ADMIRAL MEADE'S MOVEMENTS. HMis Squadron Handy in Case of Trouble With Spain. WASHINGTON, March 19.—Admiral Meade to-day cabled the Navy Department that he sailed with“his squadron from La Guayra, Venezuela, for San Domingo. This move is in accordance with his pre- arranged itinerary, and if the plan is not interrupted by unexpected events the next points visited will be Port au Prince, Hayti, and then Santiago de Cuba. EXCITEM Minister Murugua Keeps His Govern- ment Posted as to Public Sentiment. MADRID, March 19.—Epoca announces the Spanish Minister to the United S¢ates, Senor Murugua, has cabled to Senor Groisard, Minister of Foreign Affairs, that the excitement in the American press,owing to the firing upon the steamer Allianca, is abating. Seror Murugua, according to Epoca, added that the resentment as shown by American newspapers was never shared by Pre sident Cleveland. BATARDS DIFFICULT TASE. ASKED TO SEEK AN EXPLANATION FrROM ENGLAND AS TO NICARAGUA. NT DYING OUT. Has ALREADY MET WITH A CHECK IN CONNECTION WITH THE VE- NEZUELA BOUNDARY. WASHINGTON, March 19.—It is prob- able that Embassador Bayard will be in- structed by cable to call the attention of the British Government to the British ultimatum addressed to Nicaragua and jask for an explanation of British pur- subject must be handled with great delicacy and prudence, and, taken in con- nection with the attempt Bayard is mak- ingin accordance with the formal direc- tion of Congress to secure submission of the boundary dispute between Great Britain and Venezuala, it will' test his diplomatic abilities to the utmost to main- tain cordial relations with the government to which he is accredited while persisting in forcing upon its attention these disagree- able subjects. It is apprehended here, in view of the statements made in Parliament yesterday, | by Sir Edward Grey, the Parliamentary Secretary for Foreign Affairs, that Mr. Bayard has already met with a check in his attempt to push the arbitration mat- ter. This would be very unfortunate just | at this time, for it would oblige the Presi- dent to consider and decide what further steps are necessary to give effect to the in- | tention of Congress and protect the repub- lic of Venezuela from encroachments upon her territory. Itis felt in diplomatic circles here that the signs are certainly ominous of ap- proaching trouble in the south with British warships bound for Nicaragua to collect indemnity under duress, with a French war vessel bound for La Guayra, Vene- | zuela, to take the expelled French Minister aboard, leaving a wide breach of diplo- matic relations, and with other European nations threatening to follow Great Britain’s example in coercing the all Central and South American republics in the payment of debts and indemnities. ——— A4S 10 CATILE FROM TEXAS. Some Misunderstanding About the South Dakota Proclamation. WASHINGTON, March 19.—At the Agricultural Department it is thought there has been a misunderstanding as to the proclamation of the Governor of South Dakota. It® is thought that the proclamation referred to is merely the usual one issued about this time to estab- lish local legislation in conformity with the regulations made by the department to prevent the introduction of what is known as Texas fever among the cattle. The Health Department recently issued its an- | nual report, restricting trade in Texas cat- |tle. There is no pleuro-pneumonia in | Texas. It issaid at the Agricultural De- partment that the department has numer- ous agents in Texas, and frequent reports are received from them. The disease can | not be communicated through slaughtered beef. INTERNAL REVENUE RECEIPTS. Collections From the Income Tax Now Cuts Some Figure in Them. WASHINGTON, March I A state- ment prepared by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue shows receipts during the eight months of the present fiscal year to have been as follows: Spirits, $59,058,- 538; increase over the same period last vear, $4,085,763; tobacco, $19,761; increase, $1.096,999; oleomargarine, $1,108,276, "de- crease, §228,184; income tax, $11,818; mis- cellaneous, $436,320; increase, $343,324. The total receipts for the eight months 9, were $100,632,466, an increase of $5.180, During the month of February, 1895, there was an aggregate decrease in the receipts compared with February, 1894, of $1,701,- 445. e Tour of Investigation. WASHINGTON, March 19.—The Inter- state Commerce Commission is preparing for an extensive tour of the West in order to hear cases that have arisen in that sec- tion which demand adjudication. The rates from Pucblo and Denver to Califor- nia are to be inquired into. The Colorado s, machinery or other nlly, while Chicago, St. Louis and other places on the Missouri River can ship the same articles to Califor- nia at very much lower rates. e e Condition of the Treasury. WASHINGTON, March 19.—The state- ment of the condition of the treasury to- day shows: Available cash balance, $184,000,305; gold reserve, $90,445,032. Srair Al Concord and Mohican.

BOTH ARE CAUTIONED, Two Talkative Ministers Called Down Rather Abruptly. THURSTON ANDMURUGUA Representatives of Hawaii and Spain in a Peck of Trouble. GRESHAM ON THEIR TRACK. | Discourtesy Causes a Demand for the Recall of the Envoy From the Island Republic. ‘WASHINGTON, March 19.—It was re- ported here this afternoon that Secretary | Gresham had demanded the recall of L. A. Thurston, Hawaiian Minister to the United States, and to-night the CALL correspond- ent received positive and reliable informa- ton confirmatory of this report. Secretary Gresham has long been of the opinion that Minister Thurston was indis- | creet and discourteous in giving informa- tion to the press in advance of its delivery to the State Department. He objected particularly to the publication of news in | New York papers which he believed ema- } nated from Mr. Thurston. This wasa re- | port of the trial and sentence of certain of the Hawaiian conspirators, and was print- ed in New York on February 13. Several days later Mr. Gresham had an interview with Mr. Thurston and remon- | strated with him. The Minister acknowl- edged that he may have been somewhatre- miss in not communicating his facts to the State Department before conveying thera to the press, and expressed an apology. Mr. Gresham requested that he put hisex- planation in writing, and Thurston de- clined to do this. On February 21 Secre- tary Gresham asked that President Dole recall his Minister. Mr. Thurston admits the truth of this and is evidently prepar- ing to leave his post here. Secretary Gresham requested Minister Willis to formally communicate to the Hawaiian Minister of Foreign Affairs the fact that Minister Thurston was persona non grata. The communication was sent by mail, and news regarding its reception may now be on the American steamer on its way to San Francisco. The CALL correspondent is reliably in- formed that Secretary Gresham is very | much displeased with the public utterances of Senor Murngua, Spanish Minister to the United Stateg, concerning the Allianca in- cident, and When this matter is disposed | of, or perhaps sooner, he will express to | the Spanish Government his desire that it | appoint another diplomatic representative to the United States. Senor Murugua, with the ardor of a Span- iard, has allowed his tongue to wag too fr and his discussion of the Allianca affair has been so intemperate and indis- creet as to greatly incense Secretary Gre- sham. The Minister now realizes that he has been too outspoken, and says that his statements, while positive and empbatic, | must not be considered as an indication of | irritability on his part, as he has no desire to be offensive toward United States offi- cials. It begins to look as if Cleveland and Gre- sham have determined to pursue a vigor- ous foreign policy in order to make some amend for their former hesitating and va- cillating administration of State Depart- ment affairs which has made them so unpopular. The Cabinet meeting to-day was almost entirely devoted to the several foreign complications on hand. 3 EXPLAINED BY DR. ROOK. Ruling of Satolli Relating to the Fall River Cases. WASHINGTON, March 19,—The Fall River dispatch was shown to Mgr. Satolli by his assistant, Dr. Rook, who subse- | quently explained the situation thus: Mgr. Satolli has written to Bishop Perkins of Providence, R. L, suggesting that the facts are so exceptional in the Fall River cases that it would be well if | the Bishop saw fit to suspend temporarily | the application of the rule relative to Knights of Pythias members. The exceptional circamstances as stated to Mgr. Satolli are that two of the membpers of a Fall River lodge are about to die. If theyleave that lodge they forfeit their insurance money, and if they stay in it they cannot receive the sacrament. Mgr. Satolli suggested that it would be | prover to modify the rule so as to permit | these two members to have their insur- | ance without being debarred from the sac- raments. It also appears that the two Fall River | lodges were exceptional in being made up | entirely of Catholies, and for this reason Mgr. Satolli suggested that it might be | desirable to suspend the rule in order that members might have the benefit of Easter sacraments. The suspension is not of a general char- | acter, and is due entirely to the special circumstances at Fall River. Monsignor | Satolli also wishes it understood that he | merely advised Bishop Harkins that the | facts warranted temporary suspension. e FITZSIMMONS ALL RIGHT, No Truth in the Story That the Boxer Has Paresis. INDIANAPOLIS, March 19.—Regarding the statement of Captain Glori, made at Newark, N. J., saying that Bob Fitzsim- mons was afflicted with paresis, saying he had sunken cheeks, hollow eyes and a shambling gait, and would prove an easy victim for Corbett if they should meet, Martin Julian, Fitzsimmons’ brother-in- law, to-day said that Captain Glori is dis- cussing the subject “through the crown of his hat.”” “I saw Fitzsimmons less than two weeks ago,” said Julian. ‘“‘His eyes did not shine like d?famonds, but he was in robust condi- tion and is taking the usual good care of himself. Tcannot understahd why Glori persists in making such statements, which he knows are untrue.”” R e In the Diplomatic Stage. ‘WASHINGTON, March 19.—Agricultu- ral Department officials say they have no recent information concerning the protests made by foreizn Governments against the importation of cattle from the United States. The matter is still in the diplo- matic stage. A e Negroes Settle in Mewico.

CHICAGO, March 19.—The Tribune says: It isexpected that the experts will have tompleted their examinations of the books of the whisky trust for the fiscal year ending March 31, 1892, by the end of| this week. Their report, it is asserted, will contain | developments more Sensational than any yet brought to light in the investigation of the career of the corporation. These developments will be made the foundation for suits against certain officers and directors of the trust to recover moneys which will aggregate $2,000,000 or more. Then, incidentally, it is said, they will lay bare the facts in the conspiracy which culminated in the sale of the Shufeldt distillery which was marked during its progress by attempts to destroy the distillery with dynamite, and by the arrest of George J. Gibson, then secretary of the trust, on a charge of being implicated in the plot. The receivers and others interested re- fused to discuss the situation. They ad- mitted that certain suits were in contem- plation, but declined to give details, saying the matter must first be tried in the courts. From.other sources it is learned, how- ever, that the experts have found entries on books of the company showing that up- ward of $500,000 was expended soon after the arrest of Gibson and before the indict- ments against him were quashed, and for all this vast expenditure no debit entries were made. Further, the actual disposition of most of this mohey has been learned from records found in the inner vaults of the company at Peoria, which was opened by expert locksmiths. It is on these dis- coveries that the civil suits to recover money so paid will be based. Some of these suits may be started by the receivers, though these officiais refused to make any admissions in this regard. RETIREMENT OF BISSELL WILL Nor GIVE UP HIS PORT- FOLIO UNTIL MAY FIRST. IN THE MEANTIME MR. WiLson Is IN No HURRY To ASSUME THE OFFICE. WASHINGTON, March 19.—An im- pression prevails in some quarters that Postmaster-General Bissell remains. in office because he desires to clear up some business that is yet unfinished. This is not the case. “Everything is in ship-shape order,” said Mr. Bissell, when asked about this. “I could move out at any time if it was desired either myself or Mr. Wilson. The fact is I have my Washington house leased until the 1st of May, and the lease | on my Buffalo house does not expire until the same date, and I do not care to be idle during the time while Mr. Wilson is not yet ready to assume the duties of the department.” The only regret that Mr. Bissell has in leaving the office is that he has not been able, owing to the failure of Congress to legislate, to carry out all of the reforms he had inaugurated, the greatest being that He outlined his wishes on this subject in his annual report. He peinted out the enormous amount of second-class mail matter the Government was carrying that consisted neither of legitimate newspapers nor magazines, the publications for which the second-class rate was designed. Mr. Bissell was very much in earnest in this. He went to many of the leaders in Con- gress with his suggested reform when the last session convened. “I was told,” said he, “that if this was pushed at that time it would interfere with the financial measures, and that all the time which Congress could give to legisla- tion other than appropriations would be devoted to finances. I could not, of course, interfere with matters of such moment by pushing legislation in which there was less | interest.” It is a source of gratification to the retir- ing Postmaster-General that the work of the department is up to date and every- thing ready for Mr. Wilson to take hold. S St BRUTALITY ON A BOAT. Arrest of the Fiendish Captain of an Oyster Schooner. BALTIMORE, March 19.—Captain Jef- ferson Mears of the oyster schooner Gen- eral Haycock has been arrested, charged with brutal treatment of Edward Merrill, & member of his crew. The boy was stripped of his clothing when the wind was blowing a gale and the mercury was nearly down to zero. His wrists were crossed and tied firmly together and he was thus tied up to the rigging. He was then severely whipped. When cut down his thumbs were frozen. The United States authorities are looking for the man who assisted the captain in his brutalities. — Colonial Estimates Adopted. BERLIN, March 19.—The Reichstag to- day adopted the colonial estimates after a Dr. Kayser, Director of administration of German ‘West Africa, which Chancellor von Caprivi censured last year. Bebel and Richter continued to demand, without avail, an in- quiry into the charges which they brought against the Colonial Department. NO- PERCENTAGE PHARMAGY, 853 MARKET ST, Bel.

STABLES AND SHANTIES AT SEC- OND AND BRANNAN GO UP IN SMOKE. DEL MONTE MILLS IN PERIL. A ScorRE oF HORSES INCINERATED. KILBURN’S COOPERAGE SHOP GoNE. Fire broke out this mormmng at 1:50 o’clock in a stable on Townsend street, and communicated with a two-story frame building on the east occupied by Brown Brothers as a cooperage-shop. It also spread to the west, destroying a two-story frame building occupied by Frank Crim as a dwelling. It then spread to several shanties and stables in the rear and completely de- stroyed them. The stable was owned by Brown Bros. and occupied by them and by Laumeister of the Del Monte Flouring-mill and their horses. There were thirty-five horses in the stable, and it was reported at first that none of them escaped. The fire got a great start before the alarm was given and the Chief was obliged to turn in a second alarm. The fire destroyed Laumeister’s barn on Stanford street, near Townsend, and with it over twenty head of horses, the wagons and drays and a large stock of hay and grain. ‘Within a half hour after the fire started the barn was burned to the ground. It was a one-story wooden structure with a loft. The flames spread to Kilburn’s cooper- shop, a building adjoining, and completely destroyed the stock in that establishment. Before the fire was got under control it had caught the dwelling next thé cooper shop. At 2 o’clock the fire was under control. The loss is estimated at between $40,000 and $50,000. The amount of the insurance could not be definitely learned this morning. The proprietor of the cooperage shop was burned out two years ago. His shop was then on the other side of Second street. A small frame building adjoining the cooper-shop was partially destroyed. It was occupied by Frank Crim, a laborer. His furniture was destroyed and his family were obliged to leave the building in their nightclothes. The great mill of the Del Monte Com- panylat Second and Brannan streets was in great danger of destruction. The wind bearing clouds of sparks blew toward it, and had it not been for the rain that was falling fast the huge structure would have been ignited. The fire was started by an explosion of chemicals in a small room in the rear of the cooper-shop. Fire from a defective flue damaged the three-story frame structure on Newhall place, off Lombard street, to the extent of $200. Fire on Front Street. The alarm from box 264 at 10:45 A. M. yester- day was for a fire in a shed at the rear of 220 Front street. Damage $100; cause, spark from 2 chimney. T IS DRAWING T0 A CLOSE. THE FAMOUS PHYSIOGNOMY CASE WILL BE SUBMITIED TO JUDGE MCKENNA. StaNTON TELLS WHY SHE MADE MANY MISTAKES IN PrysioLoGY. MRs. The famous physiognomy case of Simms against Stanton is drawing toa close be- fore the United States Commissioner. The plaintiff submitted his side of the question some months ago, but the de- fendant has been very voluminous in her testimony, and by persisting in conducting her case in her own way, has caused much unnecessary delay. No matter what her counsel has had to say on the subject, Mrs. Stanton has persisted in ‘‘ganging her ain gait.”’ In consequence, her testimony fairly bristles with objections made by Mrs. Clara Foltz, the attorney for Dr. Simms. When the case was called before United States Commissioner Heacock on Monday Attorney Wheaton for Mrs. Stanton was re-enforced by Fisher Ames. Mrs. Clara Foitz and Joseph D. Redding appeared for Dr. Simms. Every time the witness attempted to argue her own case Mrs. Foltz interposed an objection and Mrs. Stanton then continued the even tenor of her way. Once in a while her attor- neys would propound a question to her in” the hopes of getting her to clear up some hazy explanation she had made, but as she evidently had her course mnpned out and her testimony prearranged she would not deviate a hair’s breadth. ‘When the witness had made her explana- tions Mr. Redding took up the cross- examination. In answer to his questions the defendant said she had been married twice and that her first husband was J. T. Hanks. She is 60 years of age, and at one time worked in the family of Horace Greeley. All her leisure time, according to her, was spent among books, and her hope is that some day she will be able to pass an_examination ‘and add the much- coveted letters “M.D.” to her name. Redding took up the question of anat- omy,and read a quotation from Mrs. Stan- ton’s book in which she says the lower jaw is a continuous bone. “T know what you are getting at,”’ said Mrs. Stanton. “That is an error and I'll admit it.” Asked what she knew aboutanatomy and physiology she answered she was not an expert, but had read many medical works and had used them as references. Since Dr. Simms began suit the witness said she had taken lessons in anatomy and at some future date hoped to graduate as a physi- cian. BShe did not consider a lmowlefi e of anatomy essential in writing a worl physiognomy. 2 “‘What would you think of a person who in writing on work on physiognomy made 233 anatomical and physiological mistakes, Mrs. Stanton?’’ asked Redding. “That would depend upon the magni- tude of the errors,’” was the answer. “Well, Mrs. Stanton, supposing the writer of that book putarms where legs ought to be and legs where arms ought to be, what would you think?” “I know what you're getting at,” was the tart answer. “You refer to the place in which I place the liverin the thoracic or breast cavity instead of in the stomach. Well, I did that for the purpose of better illustrating my meaning. I was five years writing my book, and it is not made up of exeerpts from other books.” » “Can you name one new ideain your book, Mrs. Stanton?’ asked Redding, in his blandest tone. AR “Yes, the three natural divisions of the | face,” was the answer. Mrs. Stanton then . - Peruvian pleaded fatigue and {llness, so the court adjourned until next Monday at 2 ». M. EMERIO AND THE OOTOPUS. s S e How the Fish Commissioner’s Left Arm ‘Was Dislocated. “Iam still in the ring,” said Fish Com- missioner Emeric yesterday, when he was asked why he had his good left hand tied up in a mammoth bandage. “You are anxious to know how this thing happened? Well, la grippe has nota thing to do with it. I simply ran against a snag in getting off the line and the octopus was too much for me.” “Well, that’s strange,” suggested a friend. “Will you be so kind as to inform me what kind of a fish this octopus is, Harry?” “‘Fish be darned,” pertly replied the Fish Commissioner. “Theoctopus isnot a fish: | it is a shark which hesitates at nothing, notevenan honorable Fish Commissioner.” “‘Please tell me all about it and how you came to have your good left hand ‘in'the slips,’ ”’ inquired an interested observer. “Well, accidents will sometimes happen to the best of men, my dear fellow,” re- torted the recently appointed Fish Com- missioner, as he glanced over his well- knit shoulders at the nicely bandaged | member, and muttered something which sounded like: “If that happened to my | good right piscatorial arm, now that the | angling season is almost at hand, I would have—" ‘““Say, my dearold boy,” interrupted a good friend of the Commn: mner, “‘do not 0 into detail as to what you might have one if the right arm had gone wrong, but just tell me how this thing happened, won’t you?” Mr. Emeric smiled and casting a good line | glance at his questioner said? “Yes, old | fl:y.
