All In Readiness at the Metropolis of Massachusetts for the Conclave. 25.—Golden Gate nd entry into y &t 5 o’clock this £ nt new union sta- tion was crowded with people, but being Sunday e was no cheering, That did not check the heartiness of the wel- come, however. The train was five hours behind time, as the roads of the East were congested at this. time with trainloads and trainloads Knights and their friends, all con- ng toward this point. The Boston nandery, one of the oldest in the rv, had been waiting with its splen- did band all these hours to receive them, not at the station, but on Park street, bor- BOSTON, Mass,, Aug. Commande the old I evening. v dering Boston Common, some:blocks away. A committee of the commandery wase at the station, however, and the cars were taken up Tremont street to the Common. There to the word of command of Colonel Frank W. Sumner, adjutant, the Sir ats from the far West fell in line, making a gallant showing in their full regalia and uniform. The band of the Boston Commandery struck the step and the pro n moved down Tremont to Winter street, and thence to on and out to the quarters of Golden Gate Commandery, the Columbia Hotel. There the Boston Commandery, 8 mag- ficent body of men over a hundred strong, making an imposing appearance in 1uil uniforms of dead black, including the plumes, drew upin line facing the hotel und presented with their band at theright of the. line, when the band of Golden Gate Commandery struck up and the Cali- fornians marched forward, their swords also at salute. The band was located just in front of that of the Boston Comman- dery, and to its music the Knights of the Golden Gate filed into the hotel, and the long six days’ swift pilgrimage across this wide continent was at an end. A small boy was engaged to lead the little bear Zerubbabel, who followed the last but the little fellow got tired on the way and a gurney had to be called to carry him to the hotel. The ladies had already arrived, having ‘come direct from the station under a knightly escort. And truly pleasant as the journey had been made by every accessory of comfort and good fellowship, all were glad to find themselves at rest and to be out of hearing of the rattle of the wheels. Literally speaking, Golden Gate Commandery will own the Columbia Hotel to the exclusion of all the other guests during the conclave. The run to the city to-day was without special incident. Breakfast was taken at where the Boston newspaper men n to come aboard, and they continued o0 g0 at the succeeding stations until they numbered a small battalion. Zerub- babel, the little bear, caught the fancy of ell of them. At Fitchburg, Mass., Jeru- salem Commandery almost buried the cars in flowers, and for each man, woman and child on board had prepared a bouguet neat complimentary card. the pilgrimage is at an end now and the pilgrims are resting, preparatory to the work of the morrow. California Com- mandery No. 1, at the Parker House, 1s well situated, and has been receiving many friends to-day. The Grand Commandery of California, with Oakland escorting, will lJeave to-morrow. This city is gayly decorated in the Templar colors and cross and the square and compass, and other emblems of the order stand out in the sharp relief of electric lamps to-night from many public and semi-public buildings. SCENES OF GREAT SPLENDOR. Boston in Gala Attire in Honor of the Gallant Knights. BOSTON, Mass., Aug. 25.—Never before in its history has the city taken on such a holiday appearance on Sunday as to-day. The elaborate decorations, the constantly arriving delegations of Knights Templarin their rich trappings and the crowds that have thronged the streets to view the ever- changing scenes, have combined to make the 'day one of hustle and bustle rather than one of rest. Commanderies have been coming in during the day over all the lines leading into the city and in and around Knights Tempiar headquarters the officials have been on the jump registering and arrang- ing for the reception of the visitors. Most Eminent Sir Hugh McCurdy, grand master of the Grand Encampment of the United States, arrived about 10:30, via the Boston and Maineroad, under escort of the Detroit Commandery, the crack command of the order, and is quartered at the Vendome. Since his arrival he has been very busy. His social functions occupied his time until late in the afternoon, when he attended services in Trinity Church. Pittsburg commandery, 350 strong, is quartered at the Vendome. This com- mandery is anxious to secure the next con clave for that city, and has aiready begnn campaigning. The first section of the Iowa command- ery arrived in twelve Pullman cars over the Boston and Maine, being in charge of R. E. 8ir E. E. Shule, of Towa Falls, Iowa, passenger agent of the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and Northern Railroad. This sec- tion came over the Grand Trunk by way of White River Junction, arriving several hours earlier than the second section, which took another route. On the second section were R. E. Sir S. 8. Lacey, grand commander of the Grand Commandery of % Towa, and other grand officers. There were also delegations from Cedar Rapids, Marshalltown, Des Moines and Council Bluffs. Considerable trouble was caused at the S Union station by the fact that command- eries came in that were not scheduled to arrive till Monday, and many came in not scheduled at all. There was very little friction, however, in disposing of the big crowds. Thousands of people visited Bunker Hill monument to-day, a large proportion be- ing Knights from distant sections of the country, and a larger crowd on Sunday was never known here. California, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Texas and half a dozen other States were represented. Other points of interest in the city and suburbs were visited by other delegates, while the harbor boats did an enormous business. Detroit commandery has planned an excursion to Lexington for to-morrow, when the historic battle- ground and other interesting places will be visited. On the Lexington battleground the commandery will give its drill just as it is to be given in the exhibition drillon the baseball grounds here on Wednesday. The route of the grand parade on next Tuesday is elaborately decorated. ALL CAUSED BY A KISS. A Jealous Woman Started a Bloody Bat- tle at a Picnic. VANCEBURG, K., Aug. 25.—A picnic at Paradise Grove broke up in arow yes- terday evening and several persons were severely cut, one fatally. For some time Mrs. John McPiney bhas been jealous of her husband. He was dancing with Miss Birdie Smith, and when the dance was finished he kissed her. Mrs. McPiney immediately jumped upon the platform and leveled a revolver at Miss Smith’s head. The latter instantly drew a dirk knife and tried to stab Mrs. McPiney. Mrs. Martha Charles attempted to save Mrs. McPiney and had her right hand severely cut near the wrist. Harry Cole then ran in to disarm Miss Smith, when she sprang at him and plunged the blade into the breast just above the heart. Then the fight became general and several men received broken heads and knife wounds and it was some time before the riot abated. Cole’'s wounds will prove fatal. APPEALS 10 THE [RISH Chicago’s National Convention Continues to Stir All the Factions. Issuance of An Address Which Asks All to “Come Back to the Board of Erin.” CHICAGO, Iui., Aug. 25.—The Irish National Convention which has been called to meet in Chicago September 24, con- tinues to stir up the fighting factions of the various Irish organizations in this country and evoke the bitterest denunciation of those who have identified themselves with the ‘“new movement’” convention. The text of the latest attack was given to The United Press to-night. It is addressed to the “Members of the American Board, Ancient Order of Hibernians,”’ and is signed “James J. Hagertv, National delt gate; Patrick McGarry, National secretary ; Daniel P. Battle, National treasurer Ancient Order of Hibernians, Board of Erin.” McGarry was a prominent “Camp 20" witness against the murderers of Dr. Cronin. The address or appeal is largely a vitu- peratiom and elaboration of the confeder- ated Irish societies’ denunciation of the proposed convention and its promoters, which was given publicity at the recent dual Irish picnic held here. It is supple- mented by an appeal to come back to the Board of Erin and cut loose from the Na- tional officers of the order, who are scath- ingly denounced for their connection with the “triangle’” leaders of the convention. Tne address continues: “If this convention is fairly successful the Republican leaders will treat with Alexander Sullivan for the delivery to their political candidate of the ‘Irish vote,” which he no more controls than they do—and the Democrats will implore Maurice F. Wilhere of Pennsylvania and other co-conspirators of Suilivan to avert the stampede. This confidence-game was successfully worked by the same men in the three last political campaigns.” TRAIN ROBBERS CAPTURED Fully Identified as the Men ‘Who Held Up the Union Pacific Train. Taken In Nebraska After a Long Chase by the Posses of Pursuers. MASON CITY, NeBr.,, Aug. 25.—Two men, claiming to be brothers, giving their names as Knudsen, were captured a few miles east of town this morning by ex- Deputy Sheriff Pursell, Constable Crossley and Dr. Carlson after a very lively chase. These men were arrested under suspicion of being implicated in the robbery of the Union Pacific train near Gothenburg on Wednesday morning. They had been chased across the country from Callaway and were seen there early this morning. A short time after they had left- town the officers were apprised of their iden- tity and immediately began pursuit. They were overhauled about five miles east of town, having stopping for a little rest. The officers covered them with guns and ordered them to throw up their their hands, which they did, and upon being searched three large revolvers, a large knife and some badly torn paper money was found in their possession. Shortly after they were brought to town Deputy Hunter and a posse who had been in pur- suit arrived and declared them to be the men wanted. They were safely guarded and taken to Broken Bow, and’ later ad- vices confirm the belief that they are the men who committed the robbery. They will be taken to Kearney to-morrow by the Union Pacific detectives and the United States Marshall. A Union Pacific official a;gd dt.o-mght the men bad been fully iden- e —_— Perhaps He Is Fraker. MOBERLY, Mo., Aug. 25.—A man giy- ing his name as C. T. Hall, alias Harry George, has been arrested here and is be- lieved to have had some connection with the celebrated Fraker case. He answers the description closely and is believed to be Fraker himself. He make -a strong ef- fort to escape arrest, but was disarmed. L0S ANGELES LEADS, A Magnificent Display to Be Made at Atlanta. ONE MONSTER EXHIBIT. Preparing an Array of thei Resources of Southern California. UNIQUE DESIGNS OUTLINED. An Entire Bullding to Be Filled With the Products of the City and Vicinity. LOS ANGELES, CiLn, Aug. 25.—Los Angeles is to have an exhibit at the At- | lanta Exposition that bids fair to eclipse | that of all the rest of the State of Califor- | nia put together. At the meeting of the Boards of Super- | visors of the different counties of the State, | held in San Francisco some time ago, it | contain a full line of the very finest decid- uous and other fruits grown in this sec- tion and will be attractively displayed. Two revolving albums of views of the so uthern portion of the State, embracing every phase of industry and pleasure, will acquaint visitors with California’s re- sources in scenery, sport, agriculture, re- sorts, hotels, etc., and will include many magnificent views taken recently for the occasion. The exhibit will also contain a model of an irrigated farm, corn in stalk, some of California’s enormous pumpkins, water- melons, potatoes, wheat, walnuts, wines, brandies, ecrystallized fruits, jellies and jams, women’s work, including manufac- tures of silk and a full cocoon display, while thousands of palm leaves, Spanish moss, ferns and pampas grass will be used in decoration. Altogether the exhibit will fill four large freight cars, the first of which, containing most of the special features, is ready for forwarding. The second car, containing oranges only, will be sent just previous to the 1st of October, and the third and fourth cars will be dispatched as needed, under direction of Superintendent Wiggin. The printed matter for distribution will cover Los Angeles County’s resources fully. Besides a carload of special editions of the Herald, there will be 2500 copies of the forty-page annual, lately issued by the Times; 500 copies of the Land of Sunshine, the most beautiful and loyal of California magazines; 50,000 illustrated cards, giving condensed facts regarding Southern Cali- fornia; 5000 copies of a 120-page illus- trated pamphlet, giving general news of Los Angeles County; 1000 copies of a small pamphlet describing methods of agricul- GENUINE BUT GORY, !

Very Feeble Attempts Made to Arrest the Managers and Brutal Matadors. CRIPPLE CREEK, Coro., Aug. 25.— Manager Joseph Wolfe, in his knicker- bockers, gaudy shirt, sash, big silver but- tons and mammoth Mexican hat, has again carried out his promises to give the Cripple Creek people a genuine Mexican bull-fight, and he has probably made money out of the speculation, but he has == > HERNSOS C AT, IF, S T THE ELECTRIC TOWER OF ORANGES AS IT WILL APPEAR IN THE LOS ANGELES EXHIBIT IN was decided to appropriate $10,000 from the funds of the counties to make a proper ex- hibit of the resources of the State, includ- ing the exhibit of the State Boara of Trade in San Francisco. This appropriation was to be prorated by the different counties. Space was secured in the Manufacturers’ building, and the appropriation was re- duced to about $6000, and will probably be less. Private citizens of Los Angeles secured a permit to erect a California building on one of the choicest locations on the exposition grounds immediately opposite the main entrance and overlooking the lake. This | bailding was eventually turned over to the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce by the builders, and will be conducted en- tirely under the direction of that body. The exhibit of Los Angeles County will be in the center of the buiiding, will occupy a large area and will represent an outlay of fully $12,000, all of which has been sub- scribed and the major part of it deposited in banks subject to call. In addition to this special exhibit Los Angeles County will be represented in the State display and bear its proportion of the expense. The Chamber of Commerce had charge of the exhibits at the World’s Kair at Chicago and the Midwinter Fair at San Francisco, and the success of those guar- antees a like outcome at Atlanta. The members of the finance committee who succeeded in raising the necessary funds were E. F. C. Klokke, a veteran of the Grand Army of the Republic and member of the Loyal Legion; Captain R. H. How- eil, a Confederate veteran and one of the city’s millionaires, and C. D. Willard, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Willard speaks highly of the method of raising money adopted by the other two gentlemen, modestly disclaiming any fur- ther share in their success than holding the sack and seeing that none of the sheckels escaped. There has been $6000 in actual cash sub- scribed, and as the Chamber of Commerce will send over $5000 worth of material from the exhibit tbey maintain in their build- ing here, the sum total will easily reach the figure already named. Since deciding to accept the California building, a number of other southern counties have requested space for special exhibits from the Cham- ber of Commerce and no difficulty is now apprehended in filling the entire building. Frank Wiggin, one of the most experi- enced men on the coast n affairs of this kind and who had charge of the World’s Fair and Midwinter Fair exhibits of Los Angeles, will manage the Atlanta building. In the center and immediately under the apex of the dome of the building will be an electric tower of oranges, modeled after the Edison Incandescent Tower in the Electric Building at, the Chicago fair. This tower at night will be a blaze of dif- ferent colored lights and will be without doubt the most beautiful and attractive feature of the entire building. Next 1n importance will come the olive and olive oil display in the shape of a tower, This exhibit will be composed al- most exclusively of the Pomona product. A complete line of dried fruits, especially packed for the occasion, will occupy a handsome kiosk, which has been much admired by visitors at the Chamber of Commerce Hall. THE ATLANTA EXPOSITION.

[Reproduced from a photograph.] The action of the Southern Pacific Com- pany in transporting the ‘exhibit to New Orleans free of charge has called forth a warm acknowledgment from all interested. Although no definite action has been taken it is thought that a special round trip rate will be made from this point fora one-way fare which will make it in the neighborbood of $75.

The Crip- ple Creek miners want the public to under- stand that they do not indorse the show, and had the civil authorities used their power to stop it, no protest from the miners would bave been made. There is no doubt about the genuineness of this bull-fight. La Charita, the woman bandarillo, Garcia, Esquival and the chief Mexican, Cheche, performed their parts with sufficient agility, grace and fearless- ness to satisfy the public of their ability. Hereford bulls were declared ‘‘no good” by Cheche. In the deft mortal thrust Che- che, however, proved not to be expert, for both yesterday and to-day he had to use his long sharp sword several times before the bulls surrendered their life blood. Be- tween the pauses qf these thrusts the sight of the streaming blood and the helpless- ness of the dumb beast made the spectacle disgusting to a majority of the audience. Excnrsion trains from Denver and Colo- rado Springs bad to be waited for and it was late in the day before the grand caval- cade dashed into the arena and saluted Manager Wolfe and the audience of men, women and even children. Sheriff Bowers, broken down under the fatigues and strains of yesterday,remained in Colorado Springs. Under-Sheriff Bris- bane represented him and bustled about declaring that no cruelty woula be toler- ated. Manager Wolfe promised this as usual, but when the first bull was ad- mitted to the ring the picadors lost no time in prodding up the animal, while several steel darts were swaying from the sides of the maddened Hereford. The manager and all assistants were placed under arrest. A Justice was handy and aquickly accepted bail. After the first bull was butchered arrests were again made and a bond as readily secured. Ad- jutant Moses advised with Brisbane and urged him to stop the cruelty. When the toreador bungled at the end, the Gov- ernor’s representative left the scene evi- dently much disgusted. After his confer- ence with the Governor by telephone he returned and told Brisbane to go into the ring and arrest each matador every time a dart was thrust into a bull. The presence of a lot of tough men all armed with re- volvers cowed the Deputy Sheriff and he contented himself with wordy altercations with the management. Night came on before the long pro- gramme of wild riding, steer-tying, lasso- throwing and other similar sports had ended, and many left before the perform- ance closed. The audience was generally quiet, grow- ing excited only when the bull drove the men into boxes and over the barriers. They watched as much the Deputy Sheriff, wondering if he would make any strong effort to stop the show. When the other sporting events had been given a second bull was brought out. He refused to fight. Another was ushered nto the arena, but before he had been greatly excited Deputy Sneriff Sterling entered the arena and ordered the fun to stop. He seized the toreador’s sword and attempted to dispatch the bull. It fell, bieeding horribly, and was dragged out by the mule team, thus ending the second day. Another programme is arranged for Monday, but it is thought few people will attend. DENVER, CoL., Aug. 25.—At his home to-day Governor MclIntire rested after a tedious night ‘of vigil. His efforts in ad- vising Sheriff Bowers proved useless. He telephoned to Under-Sheriff Brisbane on the scene, but to appeals for militia he re- iterated that he could not call them out until the Sheriff had exhausted his re- sources. The Bheriff replied that he had plenty of help, but no law to back him up. Even the humane society was not repre- sented to make requests for arrests of in- dividuals in the act of committing deeds of cruelty to the bulls. Adjutant-General Moses reported that the spectacie was too revolting for him. The El Paso County Sheriff was weak and nerveless, as He was in the Bull Hill troubles last year, and the Governor could only regret that he did not have the right to remove Sheriffs or power to step in and interfere. CHECKED BY THE POLICE An Angry Mob at a Ball Game Wanted to Lynch a Watchman. The Brutal Fellow Struck a Small Boy With a Large Lump of Coal. CHICAGO, Irr., Aug. 25. — Baseball games this afternoon at North Halstead and Division streets led to a riot, and a railroad watchman named Sorenson has the police to thank for saving him from the vengence of the mob, which was aroused to the lynching point by his wounding of a boy who was watching one of the games. A knot of boys had pointsof vantage from the coal sheds of the Delaware and Lackawana Railroad. whose docks are at Halstead and Division streets, where the river adioins. Sorenson tried to drive the boys off and threw a lump of coal at them. It struck a boy on the head and knocked him off the shed, bleeding from the wound inflicted. The crowd of players and spectators were furious, and thinking the boy had been killed made a rush for the watchman. Two police officers only were on duty there and they tried in vain to head off the mob, which dashed headlong against the gates of the railroad coalyard to get at Sorenson. The hunted man ran to the office, while the cries of “Hang him!” and ‘‘Lynch the Swede!”’ rang in his ears. The policemen managed to break through theexcited mob and reached the office, where they tele- phoned for help. Before the patrol wagon arrived with a force of officers the mob had torn the shutters from the window and smashed the glass with the intention of getting the object of their vengence, The superior force, however, soon made the mob give way and the Swede was taken to a place of safety. No arrests have been made. Lt i BLAMES THE NEGROES. Report of an Official on the Disturbances at Spring Valley. SRINGFIELD, Irn., Aug 25.—George Schilling, secretary of the State Board of Labor Statistics, who was sent to Spring Valley by order of Governor Altgeld to in- vestigate the trouble between the Italian and negro miners there, will say in his report that the imported colored miners were the cause of the trouble. The town had always been peaceful until miners were brought from the Southern fields by the company. Colored women were al- lowed to carry on orgies and dance in- decently in saloons; houses and people were robbed and frequent assaults were committed after the negroes came to town. All the citizens sided with the Italians. The report concludes with the recommen- dation that the disturbing negroes be removed from the valley or more trouble will break out. WRECK NEAR SEATTLE Disaster to the Great Northern Overland Train. RUMORED LOSS OF LIFE. The Entire Train Said to Have Been Thrown Into a Ditch. RESCUERS SENT ON A SPECIAL. A Surgeon Dispatched With All Possible Haste to the Scene. SEATTLE, WasH., Aug. 25.—The Great Northern overland' train, which left this city at 8 o’clock to-night, was wrecked at Richmond Beach, ten miles below the city. It is reported that several lives were lost, but only meager details of the disaster have been received. Shortly after 9 o’clock the news of the wreck was brought to the city, and im- mediately a special train, having on board a force of men and the railroad company’s surgeon, started at lightning speed for the scene. The railroad officials maintained the greatest secrecy regarding the disaster and refused to allow reporters to accompany the rescuing force, but the report soon reached the city that at least the engine and forward cars were detached and ‘that several lives were lost. This rumor was borne out by the fact thata surgeon was dispatched to Richmond Beach when the telegraph informed the officials of the disaster. Another report is that the ditching was the work of train-wreckers, but this cannot be authenticated. The railroad officials have adopted a brutal policy, withholding information from those who have relatives or friends on the train, and the uncer- tainty regarding the fate of the passengers bas raised excitement to fever pitch in the city. The overland left here with its coaches well crowded, and at the time of the wreck many of the passengers had probably re- tired to their berths in the sleepers. There are probably a half-dozen sleeping-cars in the train and but three or four day coaches. If the first report that the entire train had been ditched is authentic, loss of life must certainly have resulted. NO VERDICT AT SUISUN. The Jury in the Marshall Murder Case Still Out. SUISUN, CaL. Aug. 25.—No vefdict has been reached to-night by the jurors in whose hands lies the fate of John Marshall, the slayer of his brother-in-law, Charles F. Agee. Nearly thirty-four hours haveelapsed since the case was submitted and there are indications that the jury will be out at least another day, if not longer. The actions of one of the jurors between the adjournment of court Friday evening and the opening Saturday morning has been the subject of much comment since the case was submitted yesterday. One of the attorneys for the prosecution has inti= mated that they regard with suspicion the movements of the juror referred to, and an investigation is likely to be the result. TSR Found the Sacks But No Gold. SACRAMENTO, CaAL., Aug. 25.—The bags in which the $53,000 stolen from Wells- Fargo when the overland express was robbed in Yolo last October, have been found near where Jack Brady said the money had been buried. But the bags were empty when found. Some one had got away with the coin long before. ———— ZLoher Reaches Portland. PORTLAND, Og., Aug. 25.—George T.

Cornell, backed out when they struck the mountains and went back. Loher is determined to go round the globe alone and to-morrow leaves for Pasco.
