THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 5, 1895. 3 ALLISON HIS CHOICE, General Clarkson Favors the Distinguished Senator. PROPER MAN TO SELECT. Few Statesmen Have as Fine a Record in National Politics. EAST AND WEST IN ACCORD. And, Best of All, the Republican Convention Should Be Held In This City. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 4 —General J. 8. Clarkson, Republican National com- mitteeman from lowa, in an interview on the political situation has pronounced in favor of Senator Allison. He said: An intelligent observation of the politi- tion convinces many Republicans Senator Allison will be nominated at an convention. Imyself at he will be tie best can- > Republicans, and, moreover, be elected. I have st the claims of other in my travels I have he nothing Republi “but found the very strongest undercurrent running for Allison. I find this senti- ment ju strong in the East as in the West. “Senator Allison is sound on all com- mercial and financial questions. Under him the tariff would be revised, not on protection lines, but on lines that 1d carry out the great doctrine of pro- There would be no upheaval of but it would be satisfactorily ad- ted and the mistakes of the present ad- ministration would be remedied. Inter- tional bimetallism would also be estab- *d under Senator Allison. He would t appoint any half and half commis- go abroad on this great as did = President Harrison. International bimetallism cannot be accomplished by the appointment of any such kind of a commission. Senator Allison would appoint a commission com- posed entirely of international bimetal- lists, whose hearts and souls would be in tle cause, and when the foreign nations became convinced that such a comm had come to talk to them the m would be quickly successful. Senator Alli- son’s commission on this subject would mean business, and there would be no use- less speeches or tiresome and unsuccessful debates. ‘“‘Senator Allison has had a record of thirty-two years in Congress. All that time not a stain, not a spot, not a reflec- tion of the minutest character has rested on his long and honorable career. Heisa safe man and, mark my words for it, he will be the candidate of the convention.”” ‘;Where will the convention be held ?”” “Why, I am in favor of San Francisco.” on | CARTER WILL NOT RETIRE. Proposes to Hold the Chairmanship of Republican National Committee. ‘WASHINGTON, D. C., June 4.—The ap- pearance of Senator Carter in the East has led to some talk, principally in New York, about making a change in the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee. Mr. Carter is an outspoken advocate of free coinage and declares that his party should, and he believes will, give to'silver very substantial indorsement in its next Na- tional platform, and this has aroused the extreme or sound money Republicans in the Empire State, who are of the opinion that Mr. Carter in this is thoroughly un- representative of his party and should at once surrender his chairmanship. They would even go to the extent of aeposing him in case of a formal refusal on his part 10 step down and osut. Mr. Carter is not disturbed by this talk. His position as chairman of the National Committee holds until after the next Re- publican National Convention, and he announces quite firmly though informally that he will serve his time out. It is ob- served by some of Carter’s friends that he did not seek the place at the head of the National Committee, and that strangely enough it came to him for the very reason <that is being urged for his displacement. The Western Republicans were a trifle ~discontented on account of the party’s ‘treatment of silver, and shrewder man- agers in the East thought it would be a good stroke of policy to recognize the West in organizing for the campaign, and 80 the chairmanship in this way and in this spirit was voted to Mr. Carter, and his purpose now is to serve in office for the {ull time appointed. HELD IN CHECK BY BRICE. Democrats Are Kicking Over the Traces in Ohio. COLUMBUS. Oxio, June 4.—The follow- ing was issued from the rooms of the Democratié'State Committee to-day: To the Democrats of Ohio—From the wvast number of letters! received by: this committee from all parts of the State urging the calling of the Democratic convention, the belief seems to prevail with & large number that this commit- tee has the authority to name the time and place for the holding of the State convention, This, however, is not the case. The authority o issue & call for the assembling of the conven- 1ion is vested in the State Central Committee, and the calling of that committee together for the purpose of naming the date and place rests with the chairman of the State Central Com- mittee, W. A. Smalley of Upper Sandusky. The State Executive Committee, from the in- formation it received, believes that the rank and file of the party of the State desire that the State convention should be assembled at once, and we_have requested and urged Mr. Bmalley to call the central committee together. We have done this, not only ‘because the Democracy of the State seems to demand it, and that we believe their will should be obeyed. We have also urged it because we know that the executive committee lately chosen for the coming year must have suffi- cient time in which to complete a thorough or- ganization throughout the State and arrange for an active speaking campaign. Your execu- tive committee must have time in which this ean be done if yon expect success. The Repub- licans are already in the field. Why should not the Democracy be there also? The under- signed know of no reason other than that Sen- ator Calvin 8. Brice, who apparently controls the chairman of the State committee, will not permit it. The reason for this is perfectly ap- parent. Senator Brice, realizing he is not in harmony with the great majority of the Demo- cratic party of Ohio upon the money question, wants time in which he can, by political ma- nipulation and machinery, control, if possible, the declaration ‘that the Democracy of the State will make upon this issue in the conven- tion. He seems 10 be afraid to let the Demo- crats of the State meet when they so desire and express their independent views. d How successfully & political machine may ‘control & convention and misrepresent a politi- cal patiy is toroushly dgmoustrated by the | terribiy. One man will die late Republican convention at Zanesville. Democrats must be on their guard or the con- vention will be controlled in the same way. Judging from the information received by the officers of the executive committee we are also led to believe that at least four-fifths of the Democratic party of Ohio are in favor of there- adopting of the plank of last year advocating the free coinage of gold and silver at the ratio 0f16t01,and we further belicve that they should be permitted to meet in convention and 50 express themselves if this is their will, free from any interference by the leaders on either side of this question. After the Democracy in convention assem- bled has spoken all must abide by the result. Mr. Brice knows what this result will be if the Democrats of the State are permitted to freely and untrammeled in every way express their own views, and therefore he will continue to do all in his power to prevent the convention from being held until he is ready. ALLEN W. THURMAN, Chairman State Executive Committee. WILLIAM A. TAYLOR, Secretary. REPUBLICANS OF KENTUCKY. For the First Time in Years Their Pros- pects Are Bright. LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 4—The Re- vublican State Convention meets here at 10 A. m. to-morrow. During the present generation the Republicans have been in such a minority in this State that their conventions have attracted little attention. Last November the vote by Congressional districts showed a decisive Republican majority in the State, and if there had been a Repubican ticket in the field then it would have been elected. The Repub- licans feel that the same conditions exist this year, and say they are now convening as the majority party for the first time since the Civil War. The State Committee to-day selected Judge George Denny of Lexington, who is contesting with Colonel Owens the former seat of Breckinridge in Congress, as the temporary chairman. - No opposition has developed to Colonel W. O. Bradley for Governor, but there are eight candidates for Lieutenant-Governor and as many for the other places on the State ticket. RALLY OF SILVER MEN. There Will Be Many Delegates at the Memphis Convention. MEMPHIS, Texx., June 4.—It is esti- mated that at least 1500 delegates have al- ready been appointed to attend the silver convention which will meet here June 12, and county and township mass-meetings in large numbers are being held daily for the election of delegates. With this out- pouring of the advocates of the free coin- age of silver, the gathering is expected to eclipse the recent sound money demonstra- tion in this city in point of numbers. Telegrams were sent to-night to the chairman of the Democratic Convention at Springfield, 111, and the Republican State Convention at Louisville, Ky., inviting them to appoint delegates to the conven- tion. JILLINOIS DEMOCRATS. They Meet to Adopt a Policy on the Money Question. SPRINGFIELD, Irn, June 4.—The Democratic State Convention, called by the State Central Committee to adopt a policy for the party in Illinois upon the money question, will convene at noon to-morrow. There is every indication to-night that every county in the State will be repre- sented by its full quota of delegates. The sentiment among the delegates in favor of free silver seems to be so nearly unanimous that there is little prospect of even a show of fighting. The movement in the direc- tion of a National money convention seems to be gaining force every hour. Judge Goodrich of Chicago is one of the few ‘“‘sound money’’ Democrats who are delegates to the convention. He will op- pose the scheme to call a National con- vention. The sudden appearance to-day of Herman E. Taubeneck, who will be re- membered as one of the ¥. A. D. A. mem- bers in the famous Senatorial fight of 1891, caused much comment. He said he had no interest in the convention except as a spectator, adding, however, that “Certain managers of the Democratic party are now trying to steal the platform.” Taubeneck has 1o objection to this, in fact he is doing all he can to encourage the agitation, for he feels sure it will in time disrupt the party. S “The silver element of the party,” said he, “is much more in evidence than the other wing, but this is owing to the fact that the silver movement is being pro- moted by the ‘machine’ of the party. The silver Democrats in Illinois are not nearly so numerous as they seem. I think it may be safely estimated that fully one-third of the Democrats are gold menand a declara- tion for free silver will drive these men out of the Democratic party. ““When the issue is finally forced upon the Republican party, as it must be, it will certainly prove demoralizing. Ultimately the result will be that the People’s party will gather in all the free silver men of the country. Personally I favor the union of all forces opposed to the gold standard. I mean the silver Democrats of the South and West, the silver Republicans of the West, the Populists of the whole country and the bimetallists. If this union can be accomplished the victory for silver is won. If it cannot be the contest is Jost. These elements cannot be united in either the Republican or Democratic party. I feel certain that the siiver sentiment of the country will eventually be consolidated into one party. That party must be the Populist party.” It is probable there will be a meeting of prominent Populists here to-morrow after- noon, and that an address to the country will be issued, based on the action of to- morrow’s convention. When the county delegates and visitors arrived this evening they marched to the executive mansion, l where Governor Altgeld received them with a free silver speech. QUENCHED BY THE RAIN., Forest Fires of Pennsylvania Are Now Under Control. BRADFORD, Pa., June 4.—A downpour of rain this afternoon quenched the fires in the vicinity, and everything is quiet to- night. Knapps Creek, the town that was threat- ened with destruction last night, escaped with a loss of three dwellings, 150 oil rigs and two tanks of oil. Between Dukes Center and Knapps Creek 200 rigs were destroyed, together with a large amount of timber. The oil fire at West Branch, two miles from here, was extinguished by the rain, and'all fires in that direction are under control to- night. . The total loss is estimated at $1,000,000. RUSSELL CITY, Pa., June 4.—Rain came at 6 o’clock this evening and is stili pouring down in torrents. The fires in the woods are out, and there is no further danger in the vicinity. The damage to lumber and oil property is enormous, over 3000 acres of valuable timber and $100,000 worth of oil property having been de- stroyed. No lives were lost at Coon Run or here, and the people who have homes left will return to them in the morning. ST S Assailed by Strikers. WHEELING, W. VA., June 4.—Five hundred striking miners from Dillonville attacked the non-union men of Gaylor Company’s works, which resumed work this mm,;ing. and beat twenty of them FROM THE LIFE-RAFT, Four Survivors of the Colima Safe at Acapulco. TO BE SENT UP HERE There Is a Search for Others Who Are Thought to Yet Live. OPINIONS AS TO OVERLOADING. Thorough Investigation as to the Cause of the Disaster to Be Made. MAZATLAN, MEX., June 4.—The latest advices from Acapulco state that the steamer Barracouta arrived there with four Colima survivors, consisting of Passenger J. E. Chilberg and three of the crew, Peters, Johnston and .Gonzalez. These are the survivors of the life-raft seen leav- ing the wreck by Hansen. The Barracouta took these aboard at Manzanillo and brought them to Acapulco. They will depart thence by the steamer Colon for San Francisco. There is no news yet from those the steamer Mazatlan tried to rescue. Reports state they were further down the eoast than at first supposed and will come over- land, arriving probably in the next few days. Their names will be wired as soon as obtainable. SANTA BARBARA, CaL.,, June 4.— There is little doubt that Charles Schultz, one of the passengerson the ill-fated Co- lima, was a young man for many years a resident of this city, where he was em- ployed in Francis H. Knight’s furniture- store. Mr. Schultz was a steady and in- dustrious young man of 29 years, and by thrifty habits had contrived to save sev- eral thousand dollars, which he intended to invest in a coffee plantation in Guate- mala, several letters having passed be- tween him and the United States Minister there on the subject. He left here imme- diately after the flower festival in April for the purpose of making preparations to go to Central America. His parents reside in ‘Wisconsin. INVESTIGATION TO BE HELD. United States Inspectors Will Inguire Into the Causes of the Disaster. There is little to be gleaned about town in the way of news relative to the Colima disaster, and the full story of this wreck will not be known before the arrival of the San Juan, dae at this port on Thursday night. The uptewn offices of the Pacific Mail Steamshio Company are daily visited by many anxious people in quest of the latest news from the scene of the accident, but the officials have nothing to impart. “We can hope for nothing definite,” said Agent Avery, ‘“‘until the San Juan getsin. At that time we shall have the full details, and [ am sure that some of the rumors that have been flying around will 2 set at rest. “It will then be shown conclusively that the steamer was not overloaded, that she was manned by an able and efficient crew, and that everything that human foresight could do was done to insure the lives and safety of our passengers.” A good many persons well versed in sea matters, however, take a different view of the situation, as will be seen by a perusal of interviews which have appeared from day to day since the Colima went down in the trough of the sea. These people assert that the vessel was top-heavy, that the cargo was not properly stowed,that she was manned by an inferior crew—principally Chinamen. In short,that the disaster was primarily, if not entirely, due to circum- stances over which the Pacific Mail people are bound by law to exercise the fullest control. Around the Custom-house and in the Appraisers’ building, in common with other public institutions of the City, the affair is receiving a full share of discus- sion, and here, as well as everywhere else about town, much speculation is rife. Nearly every one blames the Pacific Mail Steamship Company, but still there are a few of the conservative class who will not express an opinion but say instead: “Let us wait and hear what the survivors have to say.” Among the latter are: Colonel T. H. Craig of the Custom-house; Enoch S. Tal- bot, United States Inspector of Hulls; W. A. Phillips, Inspector of Boilers, and 8. J. Ruddell, Deputy Surveyor of the Port. On several occasions the fact that no ex- amination into the tragedy would be held has been deplored. This is notso. In- spectors Talbot and Phillips are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the San Juan, and directly she reaches the dock they will be on hand to subpena all survivors who ar- rive on her. Third Mate Hansen, as the only surviving licensed officer, will have to make a full and detailed report of the tragedy. Then as soon as possible there- after a full and searching inquiry will be beld before Supervising Inspector of Steam Vessels John Bermingham, Inspector of Hulls Talbot and Inspector of Boilers Phillips. Witnesses from the Mail dock and from among the stevedores who loaded the ship will be called, and if it is possible the blame will be fixed on the proper par- ties. In talking about the matter yesterday Captain Talbot said: “Nearly everything that has come over the wire so far has been conjecture. Some blame the captain and the majority say it was due to the poor stowing of the cargo. I have formed no opinion and will not until I get Mate Han- sen’s official report and have heard all the testimony we can possibly get on the case. It is an awfui tragedy we will hava to in- vestigate, and our deliberations will be slow and sure. One thing I am certain of, the Colima’s hull and boilers were in per- fect repair when she sailed on that disas- trous trip.” The fact that a rigid investigation is to be held will. be glad news for the public. Those who had relatives on the iil-fated steamer will await the verdict anxiously. None, however, will await the decision with more fear and trembling than the di- rectors of the Pacific Mail Steamship Com- pany. If theinspectors find the steamer was lost owing to bad stowage of the cargo then suits for damages aggregating millions of dollars will be begun against the corpora- tion.. Again, if it is shown that the cap- tain was to blame the Mail Company will be liable.. Nothing but a verdict setting forth that the loss of the Colima was due to an “‘act of God”’ can save the corporation. The manner of stowing freight will be particularly investigated. Whether it was usual to put the cargo for the port of entry-on top irrespqctive of whether it was machinery or hay will be brought out, and l in this manner a great menace to life and property will probably be put an end to. Captain John Lee, late of the American bark Templar, in discussing the wreck yesterday said: *‘I came up from Panama on the Colima last November. Talk about top-heavy steamers! Why, at Panama the steamer took on tons and tons of machin- ery for Champerico. A great part of it, I should say about 100 tons, was stored on the hurricane deck, filling up the whole space that is supposed to be reserved for a promenade for the steerage passengets, from the pilot-house right forward. That was about thirty-eight feet above the water line. The deck was ‘tommed’ up to sup- port the heavy weight. On the deck under- neath, twenty fect above the water line, a large quantity more was stowed, some of the pieces weighing six tons. The water was as smooth as a millpond all the way up, but I often thought what would be the consequence if we had met any heavy weather and seas, causing the vessel to roll. If we had I feel sure we should never have got to Champerico—that is, not without that heavy cargo on top carried away over- board or was jettisoned. “The crew had boat-drill and fire-drill on the way up, but it was all a farce. At the boat-drill the men just gathered at their stations. The boats were not taken out of their chocks. Even the covers and lashings were not taken off. . “At the fire-drill, when the water was turned on. there was more water went through holes in the hose than through the nozzle. I spoke to the mate about it and he said, ‘The company is poor and cannot afford anything better.” “The Colima did not have any sails bent, anyhow, on that trip. She only car- ries fore and aft sails, but they would serve to steady her, especially if anything happened to her machinery. The sails, T found, were all stowed away below, for economy’s sake, I suppose. “I occupied a stateroom with another captain. A placard on the wall informed passengers that in case an accident oc- curred life-preservers would be found in a sack above each berth. However, there was no life-preservers there, but after hunting we found some under the bunks. “If the Colima went down suddenly I am sure they would find it very difficult to get out the boats, the way the men were drilled, and the passengers would find it hard to find life belts.” OF INTEREST TO THE COAST.

An Interesting Case Before the Court of Private Land Claims. SANTE FE, N. Mex., June 4.—The Court of Private Land Claims to-day ordered the celebrated grant for 12,750,000 acres of land to trial. Attorney Reynolds’ opening statement challenged every docu- | ment and record of the plaintiffs as forged, | manufactured and surreptitiously inserted in the various archives of Spain and Mex- ico. The Government attorneys claim that in 1886 Reavis and his wife went to Spain, and Reavis was discovered in the act of attempting to leave among the files forged evidence of title. Proceedings were taken in the Spanish courts, the records found to be forgeries and Reayis was adjudicated guilty thereof. His arrest was ordered, and having made his escape, because of the very formal and slow methods of pro- cedure by the Spanish officials, he was in consequence declared by the court to be a fugitive from justice. The Government claims to have conclusive evidence of Mrs. Reavis’ identity as the daughter of John A. Treadway, her mother being an Indian squaw, called Kate, and that she was born in Mendocino County, California. P Sl WARDEN . CHASE REMOVED, J. Bruce Lynch to Take Charge of the Kansas Penitentiary. TOPEKA, Kaxs., June 4.—There seems to be no truth in the story sent out from Leavenworth to the effect that trouble 1s imminent at the penitentiary. Governor Morrill formally removed Warden Chase to-night, but he appointed no one to suc- ceed him. J. Bruce Lynch, who will be appointed to-morrow, has gone, not to Leavenworth, but to his home in Chanute. Neither has Attorney-General Dawes gone to Leavenworth. A special dispatch to the Capital from Leavenworth says that the general sentiment is that when a demand is made upon Chase for possession he will give up without precipitating trouble, ——— SEVEN SWEPT AWAY. Four Persons Drowned While Crossing a Swollen Stream. DENVER, Coro., June 4.—A special to the News from Douglas, Wyo., says: A party of seven persons was swept away while crossing a swollen stream near here to-day, four of them being drowned. Bert Elder started from Tie Siding to attend a circushere with his wife and two children, Mrs. Powell and baby, and a Mrs. Sher- win. The wagon overturned in La Prete Creek, all the occupants being thrown into the water. Mrs. Elder and her baby and Mrs. Powell and her baby were carried away and drowned. The bodies have not vet recovered. Death of an Artist, SARATOGA, N.

Great Britain, France and Rus- sia May Force the Sultan to Comply. . ONE SQUADRON IS ALL READY. The Wily Turk, However, Thinks Germany Will Stand by Him. CONSTANTINOPLE, TurkEY, June 4.— The reply of the Turkish Government to the notes of the representatives of Great Britain, France and Russia regarding pro- posed reforms in Armenia has been de- livered to envoys. The Porte’s answer is not satisfactory. The Turkish Govern- ment does not agree to the principle of control of proposed reforms by the powers. After receiving the reply envoys of the three powers held a meeting, at which they decided to refer the whole matter to their respective Governments. The situation is serious, as last week the British Embassy informed the Porte that Great Britain had decided not to accept any modifications of the propositions affecting reforms in Armenia, and repre- sentatives of other powers have made the same declaration to the Porte. The reply of the Turkish Government causes sur- prise. It is thought such an answer would not have been given without encourage- ment from some European power. But the presence of the British Mediterranean squadron, consisting of seventeen ships, at Beyrout, points to an agreement be- tween Great Britain, France and Russia to force Turkey to comply with the demands of the powers. Consequently interesting news may shortly be flashed from Beyrout, Syria, where it is believed the British fleet will be called upon to support the demands of the three powers. 5 The measures which Great Britain, France and Russia insist upon as pre- liminary to reform include the appoint- ment of a high commissioner from Ar- menia, general ampesty and release of all political prisoners, the revision of certain judgments and the appointment of a com- mission to sit at Constantinople charged with the application of the reforms and working in concert with the high commis- sioner. It is also demanded by the powers that the Governor and Vice-Governors of Van, Ezeroum, Sivas, Bitlis, Khartoum and Trebizonde be Christian or Mussulman, according to how the population of the places is inclined. In any case, however, either the Governor or Vice-Governor of the places named is to be Cbristian, and the appointment of those officials is to be approved by the powers. Taxes are to be collected by local and not by State officials and enough is to be retained before the money is forwarded to Constantinople to provide for the cost of local government, as under the present system all tax money is first sent to Con- stantinople and but little of it returns to Armenia. The powers also propose to compel the Porte to make radical chanrges in the judi- cial system in order to insure fair trials, the surveillance of prisons and the aboli- tion of torture, and the police is to be com- posed of Turks and Christians equally. Finally, the Turkish Government is to be compelled to strictly enforce the laws against compulsory conversion to Islam- {ism. As already cabled by the Associated Press, when the Sultan read the note of the representative powers outlining the proposed reforms, he was not unfavorably impressed. He had several conferences with the foreign Embassadors, and the Austrian Embassador urged him to acqui- esce in the demands of the powers. But it was added at the time that the Sultan ap- peared to be counting upon the moral sup- port of Emperor William of Germany, to whom he is known to have sent an auto- graph letter on the subject. SCHNAUBELT'S HARD LUCK Once More the Fleeing Chi- cago Anarchist Is Robbed in Mexico. Besides Losing All His Possessions He Is Serlously Wounded by the Robbers. CITY OF MEXICO, Mex., June 4.—In- formation was recently received here that an American had been found dangerously wounded at Hialejovilla, in the province of Santa Barbara. The man’s head had been battered in, and he had received three knife thrusts. The wounds were not neces- sarily fatal, except from exposure. The patrol found the man stripped naked, hav- ing been robbed. An investigation by the CALL correspond- ent resulted in the discovery that the un- lucky man is traveling under the name of Rindskopf, but that he is none other than Schnaubelt, the notorious Chicago anarch- ist. It is known that he left Tegucigalpajwith two guides and another German, for all of whom he bought horses, intending to go to the coast, cross to Mosquito and thence go to Colon. The four were seen together at Comayagua and Santa Barbara, where the other German, who gave the name of Hirschfield, left them, going to Salvador. Yesterday Rindskopf was able to talk a little, and said he had gome with the guices and Hirschfield. . The latter, quar-] reling with the guides, left them. When left with the guides alone he was assaulted treacherously. He knew nothing till he found himself under the doctor’s care. He said he had $700 besides the horses and baggage, all of which was stolen. ‘The authorities are doing all possible to find the robbers, who are natives. Troops were sent in all directions to pursue them. ELT o To Henew the Act. QOTTAWA, Oxt., June 4.—The dispatch from England announcing the intention of the imperial authorities to introduce a bill to restrict sealing in the Berine Sea is un- derstood to refer to the renewal of the im- perial confirming act closing the season for sealing as decided by the tribunal of Paris, It is said this will not involve any new principles. Until the official papers regarding the seizure of the sealing schooner Shelby in the North Pacific has been received no formal protest will be for- warded to the United States. 1t is believed ;he seizure was made in ignorance of the aw. i Gl SENTENCED TO BE SHOT. Captain Clavigo Will Die for Wounding His Superior. MADRID, Srarx, June4.—General Prima de Rivera, captain-general of Madrid, who was shot yesterday by Captain Clavigo, is better. The trial of Clavigo by court-mar- tial began to-day. In his defense Clavigo stated that he was driven to commit the deed by the persecution to which'he ‘had been subjected by General de Rivera. He declared the general acted on the influence of ademi-monde, who had a grudge against him. The general, he further stated, had ordered his pay to be withheld, with the result that he became obliged repeatedly to call upon the generosity of his friends. The court pronounced the prisoner guilty and sentenced him to be shot at 5 o’clock to-morrow morning. Bt CAUSES UNEAMINESS. dgain the Legislature of Newfoundland Is Adjourned. ST. JOHNS, N. F., June 4.—Another ad- journment of the Legislature to-day occa- sions uneasiness among the public, espe- cially as the newspapers publish press clippings tending to show that certain legal points require to be proven before the loan negotiations can be concluded. The Legisla- ture may not proceed to business until after Colonial Secretary Bond’s ~return from England, if he can get back before the end of June. If not, retrenchment proposals will be introduced, as it is essen- tial that all the regrading of salaries and reducing of grants shall begin before the next quarter, e Transfer of Formosa. SHANGHAI, Cuixa, June 4.—Lord Li Chigg Fang, son of the Viceroy, Li Hung Chang, and John W. Foster, who had been to the Island of Formosa for the purpose of formally transferring it to Japan accord- ingto the terms of the treaty, have re- turned. Foster, in an interview, said that Admiral Viscount Kaibayeta, formerly chief of the Japanese Navy Department, had been appointed Governor of Formosa. The formal transfer was effected on June 2. Foster will return to the United States on the first steamer. KENRICK NOT REMOVED, Misunderstanding of the Cable Instructions From Rome. Merely a Decree Increasing the Powers of the Archbishop’s Coadjutor. ROME, Itavy, June 4.—It is stated at the Vatican that the brief cable from St. Louis announcing the Pope’s deposition of Archbishop Kenrick and the nomination of Archbishop Kain, is due to an unfortu- nate misapprehension of the cable from Rome which summarized the action taken by the congregation of the Propaganda. A written decree was mailed to the United States several days ago. It does not de- pose Archbishop Kenrick from his pres- ent title or position, nor does it appoint Archbishop Kain as his successor. Such acdon could have been taken only through a Papal bull. The present action is a decree of the con- gregation made for the purpose of assist- mg in the management and administra- tion of the church property of the arch- diocese. Had the Archbishop been re- lieved he would have been given a new titie as Archbishop of a suppressed dio- cese in the far East, in order that the change would entail no sacrifice to his dignity or station. But the decree makes no change in his title and leaves him in possession of his present title as Arch- bishop of St. Louis. 1t defines exactly and clearly the position of Archbishop Kain as coadjutor, making more definite the powers that were conferred upon him a year ago. Itdoes not, however, make him successor to Archbishop Kenrick, but gives him such strong powers as coadjutor that he may be able to carry on his laborious work of managing church property and affairs as though he were Archbishop in name or fact. Itis regretted that the few words sent by cable summarizing the full decree should have been misconstrued. e DEMANDS A FAIR TRIAL. General Cabezas’ Conduct While Gov- ernor of Bluefields.

Eight More Regiments to Be Brought Over to Crush the Cubans. SOLDIERS LOTH TO FIGHT. Cruelties Inflicted by Officers to Compel Them to Face the Natives. HAVANA, Cusa, June 4.—Bands of in- surgents from the province of Puerto Prin- cipe have invaded the provinceof Santa Clara. General Huque is concentrating his troops at Santo Espiritu, north of Trinidad, in the province of Santa Clara. Colonel Rizo, in conjunction with Major Arminana, who has been in pursuit of in- surgents, had an engagement with the recels at Limonar. The insurgents lost two dead and ten saddled horses on the field. Captain-General Martinez de Campos has arrived at Santo Espiritu, where he met with an enthusiastic reception. The insurgent band commanded by Maceo has burned the village of Seville, near the mines of Joraguaya, Santiago de Cuba. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 4.—A special to the World from Havana s: The World correspondent is abie to assert postively that the report circulated by the Spanish that General Maximo Gomez, the Cuban insurgent commander, was killed at the battle of Boca de Dos Rios is un- true. General Gomez is not dead. Gen- eral Martinez Campos has asked the Gov- ernment at Madrid for eight more regi- ments of regulars. Telegrams received from Santiago rep- resent that the revolution is growing more and more serious in that department. Santiago city has been without meat three days. A herd of cattle was brought into Santiago guarded by a force. The troops were attacked by insurgents and routed last night. According to the official dis- patch the troops lost two men killed and four wounded, while the rebels lost two killed and five wounded. Itis common knowledge here that the soldiers of the Government do not want to fight, and that the commissioned officers inflict terrible cruelties on them during battles to make them fight. It is rumored that Jose Mari Aguirre, a prisoner on the same charge, will be re- Teased. Nothing nas been made public of their trial. 98’ of all cases of consumption can, if taken in the earlier stages of the disease, be cured. This may seem like a bold asser- tion to those familiar only with the means generally in use for its treatment; as, nasty cod liver oil and its filthy emul- sions, extract of malt, whiskey, different preparations of hypophosphites and such like palliatives. Although by many believed to be in- curable, there is the evidence of hun- dreds of living witnesses to the fact that, in all its earlier stages, consumption isa curable disease. Not every case, buta large percentage of cases, and we believe, Jully 98 per cent.are cured by Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, even after the disease has progressed so far as to induce repea(es bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering cough with co- })ious expectoration (including tubercu- ar matter), great loss of flesh and ex- treme emaciation and weakness. Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases reported to us as cured by *“ Gold- en Medical Discovery” were genuine cases of that dread and fatal disease? You need not take our word forit. They have been so pronounced by the home physicians, who have no interest whatev- erin misrepresenting them, and who were strongly prejudiced against a trial of ‘“Golden Medical Discovery,’’ but who have been forced to confess that it sur- passes, in curative power over this fatal malady, all other medicinés with which they are acquainted. Natty cod liver oil and its filthy * emulsion$’’ and mix- tures, had been tried in nearlly all these cases and had either utterly yailed to benefit, or had only seemed to b&nefit a little for a short time. Extract of ralt, whiskey, and various preparations of e hypophosphites had also been faithfully tried in vain, The photographs of a large number of those cured of consumption, bronchitis, lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal catarrh and kindred maladies, have been skillfully reproduced in a book of 160 pages which will be mailed to your ad- ress for six cents in stamps.
