COSHOCKTON, Pa., July 19.—The heroine of Plymouth Township is Mrs. Frank Freas, who bravely divested herself of her gown. leaped into the water fifty feet deep and saved a little girl from As Mrs. Freas was passing Rumsey’s quarries last evening she heard cries of distress. She hurried in the direc- tion whence the sound came, and found strugeling in the fifty feet of water in the abandoned quarry a little Polish girl. There was nothing which she could throw the struggling child and rescue her. M.s. Freas hesitated but a moment, and then, divesting herself of her gown, she threw it toward the drowning girl, but it s not of sufficient length to reach her. She sprang into the water and swam close to the child. She kept far enough away to prevent the victim from grasping her, but just near enough to throw the gown so the girl could reach it. The almost- exhausted one seized the dress, and then Mrs. Freas swam ashore with the girl trailing behind. Tney landed in safety, and the brave rescuer not long afterward received the praise of all the %illle girl’s family and friends. | AMERICANS ARE ARRESTED Captured by Canadians While Fishing on the Northern Boundary. People of Crane Lake Greatly Ex- cited and International Com- plications May Ensue. DULUTH, Mixx., July 19.—Word came | from Tower late to-night that a serious en- counter had just taken place between American citizens and Canadian officers on Namokin Lake, on the boundary line, and international complications are feared. The American citizens are: F. Enske, Emil Ames and William Sims, all residents of Crane Lake, and they have been placed under arrest and taken to Francls, Canada, where they are now in confinement. The people of Crane Lake are greatly ex- cited over the outrage, and the whole affair will be laid before the authorities at ‘Washington. As near as can be learned the trouble was brought about by the Canadian officers taking up and confiscat- ing nets set in Namokin Lake by the Iron Fish Company on the ground that they were in Canadian waters.

The San Franciscan Withdraws From the Race for President. CHICAGO, IrL., Yuly 19.—It looked at one time during yesterday’s session of the National Amateur Journalists as if there would be a split in the association. Charles R. Burger of Jersey City and David L. Hollub of S8an Francisco were rival can- didates for the presid y. Burger's fac- tion charged the other with packing the conmittee on creden with the inten- tion of running in s 1 score of new members without regard to their qualifica- tions, and when the names were presented HOLLUB AGAI PENDER, NEBR., July 19.—All the guns brought here last night were distributed to the settlers to-day and pretty nearly all the farmers are now well armed. This afternoon W. 8. Carrett, a Flournoy settler who had been evicted by Captain Beck, accompanied by three companions, all armed, went to his old home and drove away the four Indian policemen who were guarding it and now he is oécupying it. W. E. Peebles, who is thought to be a trifle overexcited, claims that the Nebraska Congressmen and Senators will come here at once to investigate the matter. It is be- lieved here that Beck will not disobey the injunction. About fifty women met last night and organized the Farmers’ Wives’ Society and passed resolutions denouncing Beck in un- measured terms and demanding his recall. i S A NEW LABOR BODY. Metal Trades Organize to Secure Shorter Hours. ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 19.—The first in- formation of the existence of a new labor body was given out here to-day by one of the National officers.

Pyrotechnics Enliven the De- monstration During the Evening. DUMPING OF THE FIRST DIRT. Work Within the City Expected to Be Completed in Two Months. STOCKTON, Car., July 19.—The actual work of grading the Valley Railway road- bed was begun to-day, and the event was celebrated this evening with a big blowout, including a torchlight procession, pyso- technics and public speaking on the plaza. The idea of making a demonstration 1n celebration of the commencement of the work was not conceived until this morn- ing, but a number of energetic individuals went to work forthwith, and within a short time money enough to carry out the pro- gramme arranged was subscribed. There were bonfires, rockets, a hundred anvil salutes, bombs, 500 Roman candles and red fire. Torcheswere distributed and a procession formed at half-past 7 o’clock. Numerous transparencies, prepared to-day, were displayed. All the teams now at work grading were in the procession. One of the wagons was loaded with grading material, another with ties, and another with rails, The speakers’ stand was a dirt wagon, loaded with tie$ and rails. Horns were blowing as though it were New Year's eve. The first load of earth was placed on the line by Melville Clark, who has a contract to furnish earth from his pit east of town. He dumped the load on Taylor street, near Commerce, and thrust in it a staff bearing the American flag. The load was placed there at 6:40 o’clock this morning, and at 7 o’clock the main force of graders went to work on Edison street, just south of Mor- mon Channel. They are working fast, and already quite a large embankment has been formed. Robert Watt of the board of directors of the Valley Railway and Chief Engineer Storey arrived last evening, and to-day they went over the line, took a look at the graders and inspected the various pits from which it is proposed to obtain the grading material. The contractors who have the city divi- sion of the road are R. R. Thornton, J. W, McCarty, John C. Doyle and John Craven. They exvect to have Taylor street graded in one month and the rest of the work in the city done in two months. Hundreds of men were hanging about Mormon Channel, near California street, waiting for the work to commence, all anxious to secure employment. So great was the crowd that it surged over to where the laborers were at work and pressed so closely upon them that officers had to be called upon to keep the crowd back. Hundreds of men are coming to Stock- ton every week, hoping to secure employ- ment while the work of constructing the Valley road is going on. Many will be doomed to disappointment. Engineer Storey and Mr. Watt held a conference with several farmers along the route of the road in Woods & Levinsky’s Jaw office this afternoon. The jconference was held for the purpose of deciding upon locations for stations at different points along the route. There are several avail- able locations, but only four stations will be established at most. Several farmers will make the granting of rights of way through their land conditional upon the railroad company putting stations upon their tracts. The matter will be de- cided at a meeting of the directors to be held next Tuesday. The streets were thronged long before 7 o’clock with the thousands who gathered along the main thoroughfare to show how they felt over the commencement of work on the road that means so much to Stock- ton, and which this city has done so much to assist. Hundreds of small boys paraded about with fishhorns, while the whistles of all the factories were turned loose to honor the event. The procession was a long one and strictly of the workingman. It was headed by the police and the Sixth Regi- ment band; next came Mayor Baggs, Street Superintendent Bidwell, 8. M. Grif- fith and John D. Gall in a carriage, fol- lowed by wagons loaded with ties, rails, flour, brooms and various products typical of Stockton’s industries, and behind these came dirt wagons for blocks, filled with laboring men, all supplied with quantities of Roman candles and red fire, w‘lflch they set off to light up the scene. At oneend of the plaza a huge bonfire was burning, while at the ovfier anvils were fired every few minutes. The labor- ing p:ople turned out in foree, as well as all other classes of Stockton’s citizens, and all along the line of the procession the sidewalks were packed with spectators. After going turough all of the principal streets a halt was made on the plaga, oppo- site the courthouse, and the speakers left their carriages and climbed upon a load of dirt that is to be a part of the roadbed of the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railway. Mavor Baggs was the first to address the throng, and pointed with pride to the fact that Stockton enterprise had secured the inauguration of three railroad enter- prises within the city in_as many months. He was followed by 8. M. Griffiths, for- merly of Fresno, who paid an eloquent tribute to Stockton,and to the San Joaguin Valley, which will be traversed by the road over the coming of which to-night's celebration was held. After the demonstratlon the Commercial Association held a_meeting to provide for securing more fuuds to carry on its enter- prises of securing for Stockton the Valley road and other kindred benefits to this city. FOUGHT WITH CADETS. Spaniards Have a Lively Encowuter With American Middies. BOSTON, Mass., July 19.—A letter from Gibraltar reports that two cadets of the Massachusetts training-ship Enterprise had trouble over the payment foraroom in a hotel. The landlord demanded double rates. The cadets ordered him out, and as he refused to leave the room he was throwrnt out. He collected several other Spaniards and broke into the room. As some of the Spaniards were armed with. knives one cadet drew his revolver and fired several shots into the ceiling. This cleared the '0om. The landlord then summoned the police and five of them marched into the room. The sergeant in and, holding it a, cadet, backed him into a corner and held him. Two others tried to grasp the other boy by the arms, but, putting on a pair of vicious-looking brass knuckles; he hit one on the forehead and another on the head before they saw what he was up to, and both fell like logs. Then he started for the other two, but one getting behind bim they soor had him down, though not until another had-been given a headache. The cadets were then taken to prison. In the morning the guards ordered them by signs to clean up. This they refused to do. One of the guards, snatching up a heavy club, beat one of the boys across the back and shoulders until he ‘fell half-senseless. The boys were fined $9 apiece and were further punished by losing shore leave for the remainder of the cruise. RS VAT ey AS TO FIGHTING BULLS. Mexicans Do Not Relish American Criti- cism of the Sport. NEW YORK, N. Y., July 19.—A City of Mexico special says: Commenting on the proposition to give !mll fights at Atlanta during the exposition a newspaper here says: “The protest of sundry American news- pavpers against introducing the barbaric but splendid sport is a mere spasmy of morality in a country which reads with avidity the details of prize fights and makes heroes of Corbett and Sullivan. When Americans come here as tourists the first sKectacle they demand to see is a bull fight, and steel chains and fiery aragons could not keep them away. “Preparations are making here to send bulls of the best fighting breed to Atlanta and give first-class performances. Mexi- cans predict that the Bfectac]e will be the most popular feature of the Atlanta expo- sition.” SEARCHING FOR CORPSES, Bones Supposed to Be Those of the Williams Sisters Found. Théy Are Discovered In a Stove In the Basement of a Chicago House. CHICAGO, Irr., July 20.—All last night two detectives from the central station were engaged in digging in the basement and searching the buildfng at 701 Sixty- third street in search of the bodies of Min- nie Williams and her beautiful sister, who, it is supposed, were murdered by Dr. H. H. Holmes, now under arrest in Philadelphia, charged with the murder of Benjamin Pietzel. There was a rumor in police circles this morning that the detectives had found in an old stove charred human bones and a watchcharm, which it is believed belonged to Minnie Williams. During the World’s Fair Dr. Holmes oc- cupied the lower floor of the three-story building at 701 Sixty-third street. During his residence there both Minnie Williams and her sister lived with him. They were beautiful and had a large amount of money. Suddenly the sisters disappeared. Nothing was thought of the matter at the time. as it was supposed they had gone to friends in different parts of the country. Last winter, at the time of the arrest of Holmes for the murder of Pietzel, it was also supposed that the Williams sisters had been murdered by Holmes and that their bodies had been buried in the cellar of the building occupied by Holmes. De- tectives were put to work on the case at the time and so strong was the suspicion that it was decided to excavate the cellar for the remains of the missing sisters. This, however, was so strongly objected to by the occupants of the first floor that it was finally abandéned. Since the find- ing of the supposed bodies of the Pietzel children in the Toronto house, the mys- terious disappearance of the Williaws sisters, while they were members of Dr. Holmes’, househola, was recalled by the police and yesterday Inspector Fitzpatrick determined upon a thorough investiga- tion. g Detective Sergeants Norton and Fitz- patrick were detailed, and, after a hasty investigation, gave it as their opinion that the Williams sisters had been murdered by Holmes, and that their bodies were buried in the basement of the house. Upon this information Inspector Fitz- patrick ordered the detectives to excavate the cellar in search of proof. From the guantity of bones found it was thought that more than one body had been burned in the stove, but this the detectives were unable to determines All of the bones were wrapped up and will be submitted to an expert for examination to ascertain whether there are duplicate pieces. / Detectives Norton and Fitzpatrick are now fully convinced that they have found the remains of the Williams sisters, and that they were murdered by Dr. H. H. Holmes. The work of identification is yet to be accomplished, and it will be difficult, owing to the almost complete annihilation of the bodies. The only clew which points strongly to he identification of the bones is the piece of watchchain and some hairpins which are said to have formerly belonged to Minnie. The building where the bones were found is a three-story brick and was built the year prior to the World's Fair. It was originally a flat building, and dur- ing the fair the first flat was occupied by H. Holmes. The first floor was rebuilt into a storeroom and is now occupied by E. H. Robinson as adrugstore. The upper floors are still used as flats. Heretofore the occupants of the building have objected to any search being made by the police, but Mr. Robinson readily gave his consent that the work be pro- ceeded with when the facts were made known to him. He not only gave his con- sent, but assisted the detectives in the work of digging. IDENTIFIED THE BODIES. Mrs. Pietzel Views the Remains of Her Murdered Children. TORONTO, Oxt., July 19.—Mrs. Pietzel, though very weak and agitated, was urged to go to the Morgue where the dead bodies of her supposed children are lying, and has satistied herself of their identity. She recognized them by the hair, the teeth, an abscess on the breast of one of them, and other signs that would be ample proof to a mother. The authorities have taken care that no publicity be given of the inquest proceedings, and very few, except those officially connected with the city and press, ‘were present. The boy who found the toy belonging to the children was the first witness at the inquest to-day. He said he found the toy in a satchel last Christmas. The toy was in the form of a small snake. The Mc- Donald family had been living in the house for about a month at that time. The toy was identified by Mrs. Pietzel. The witness stated also that when his parents went to live in the house they found there some smal boats, a wooden bedstead not set up and a mattress, Mrs. Pietzel was then placed in the witness-box. She gave her evidencein a hardly audible voice. She called herself the widow of Benjamin F. Pietzel, formerly of Philadel- phia, thereby showing that she has abandoned any hope of his being alive. 8he met Holmes first in Chicago at a res- taurant at Sixty-fifth and Water He was known then as Mr. Holmes streets, NEW TO-DAY.

S THO_KvOcKauTS, Spectators at the Riverside Athletic Club Witness Hot Fighting. “Shadow” Maber Showed Hls Back and Was Bested by Young Corbett. BALTIMORE, Mp., July 19.—The sport- ing fratermity who visited the Riverside Athletic Club house to-night saw two knockouts in two fights. Both were in double quick time, and while the second was apparently due to the carelessness of the defeated man, both were interesting. “‘Shadow” Maber, the young Australian who has not been defeated, though he has met the best men of his classin the prize- ring, was the vanquished in the star bout of the evening, and he may charge his de- feat to himself and his inattention to the simplest of the most vital rules of sparring. He was knocked out simply because he turned his back to his antagonist,* Young” Corbett, and walked away in a careless and apparently unconcerned and unsuspecting manner. - He was dealt a knockout blow in the seventh round when his chances of success were at least with those of his opponent. At the beginning of the round Maber and the stockily built young fellow whom Champion Corbett had ]yicked out as the coming fighter of his class were both in prime condition, though the stif fightin they had done since the first round hag un%uestionnbly affected their strength. Maber led a good blow into Corbett's wind and followed him into a corner. He dodged a blow aimed at his head and caught a swinging one, intended for his stomach, on ‘his arms, which he cleverly got in the way of Corbett’s gloved fist. It was now Maber’s turn to retreat to a corner, and a light ineffectual exchange of blows ensued. Maber dodged out, and, turning, walked away toward the center of the ring without taking the precaution to keep his eye on Corbett’s movements. He had done the same thing in the same way several times before in the fight, and Cor- bett had evidently made nP his mind to catch him. @benging lightly side from behind he swung hisleft forcibly on Maber's jaw. The blow was a stag- gerer, and before Maber could gather bis senses Corbett repeated the blow and the “Shadow” fell to the floor limp and un- conscious. It was just 2 minutesand 37 seconds from the time the seventh round began. Maber had the advantage in height and a little in reach. “Young” Corbett (or George Green, which is his real name showed splendid back and shoulders an powerful muscles. The preliminary fight was between Chris Johnson of this city and Tommy West of Chicago, announced as 145-pound men. They were to have_eight rounds. but West started in with a wicked eyeand a quick fist and knocked Johnson down and out in two minutesand five seconds in the first round. ‘West exhibited superior cleverness and an enormous hitting force. He led first on the right jaw of Johnson, who countered 1i l;t:l.x, and a little later the latter fii his right on West’s cheek. A rime cautious sparring followed, when the champion saw_an opening and sent a stinger on the Baltimore boy’s jaw. John- son’s eyes rolled lherily around and he careened over and fell to the floor. He took the full time limit to arise and made a game effort to last until the end of the round, but West was too shrewd to let his advantage slip and dealt the already de- feated man another hard blow, which sent him again to the floor, where he remgined until Referee Charley White of New York counted him out.
