The San Francisco Call. Newspaper, November 1, 1895, Page 2

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1895. deemed best to assist and encourage San Francisco in its most laudable enterprise. The papers here have taken the matter up, opened subscription-lists, and are encour- aging the idea to the utmost, The matter of getting the convention for this coast has been the general theme of conversa- tion on the streets to-day, and if earnest desires, coupled with the good will of Los Angeles, could give the convention to San Francisco she would certainly have it.

BROOKLYN HOTEL TOTAL... — g THE EXPOSITOR’S G1FT. It Adds $200 to the Republican Conven- tion Fund. FRESNO, Cavn, Oct. 3L—The Daily Evening Expositor, the leading Demo- cratic paper of San Joaquin Valley, this evening announced that it would donate $200 to the fund for bringing the Republi- can National Convention to San Francisco. The bringing of the convention to Califors nia was the subject for the paper’s leading editorial this evening. It said, among other things: Fresno stands as good a chance to derive benefit from the visit to California of the fore- most members of & great political party and of the brainiest newspaper mea in the United States as any other part of the State, and she can afford to assist in the work of getting the convention to come here. The Expositor is not a Republican newspaper. It does not be- lieve in Republicanism nor in McKinleyism, and doesn’t want that party to triumph, either locally or in National affairs. The Expositor is devoted to the interests of Fresuo and Cen- tral California, and it fully appreciates the benetits that would accrue to Fresno to have such an invasion of the State ata time when work will be lively in Fresno on the Valley railroad and on the buildings that its builders will be erecting here next summer. Let us now all stand in and meake & success of this, as we did of the Midwinter Fair undertaking under the leadership of the Chronicle and other big daily newspapers. e WITHOUT SOLICITATION.

Alsos like subscription to secure the National Demo- cratic Convention for our City. Trusting we will be lucky and secure both conventions, yours truly, CARSON GLOVE COMPANY, R. N. CARSON. STILL OF COMMENT. The New York Dinner Is Still Under Considerable Discussion. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 31.—The Trib- une this morning says that the dinner of Republican politicians at the Hotel Bruns- wick last week is still a matter of com- ment in political circles. Those present at the dinner were: Senator Thomas H. Car- ter of Montana, Senator M. 8. Quay of Pennsylvania, T. C. Platt of New York, James 8. Clarkson of Iowa; Charles . Shoriridge, editor of the San Francisco Cavrr; Samuel Fessenden of Connecticut, iarrett A. Hobart of New Jersey, Russell A. Alger of Michigan, Colonel Lamb of Virginia, Chauncey I. Filey of Missouri and John R. Tanner of Illinois. It was the second dinner of the series, the first having been held in Washington last May, and was directly in the interest of Reed for the Presidency, though the sentiment did not prove to be altogether harmonious. Joseph H. Manley, chairman of the ex- ecutive Committee of the Republican National committee, and one of the most adroit Reed boomers in the country, is in California. He was at the meeting, how- ever, in spirit. He went to California, it is asserted, to feel the pulse of the Pacific Slope and see how that region would take the nomination of Mr. Reed. It is said to be his advice that the Republican National Convention be taken to San Francisco with the understanding that the West stand with the men who bring it there to secure the nomination of Mr. Reed. s EDITORIAL COMMENT. Nevada and California Papers Discuss the Convention. The commendable zeal exhibited by the San Francisco papers in their efforts to secure the Republican National Convention reflects credit upon the public spirit animating those jour- nals. If the California metropolis wins the prize the credit will belong solely to those papers. They not only took the lead in the matter, but pledged money, and money counts. Asidefrom these facts a great lesson is taught by the action of the papers and one that should be dealt out in large doses to that class of silurians who are continually charging the press with being purely mercenary and so de- generate in policy as to make their position on all public matters entirely subservient to the business office. One lesson is that the papers are stili the medium of leadership among the people, and the journals are leaders whose de- mands the most puffed-up politician heeds with respect. They speak to large audiences, and all the wind expended by cranks cannot destroy their influence or shape their policy. There is & class of people who can never see any good in a paper unless they are invited into consultation upon its policy and are per- mitted to revise its proofs. They may stop their papers, libel the motives of the editorand convince their small audience that they know how to run & paper better than the publishers, but the paper will go along all the same. A little damning for a paper is healthful. Variety is the spice of life. These people, blind to the better elementsin journalism, will read the papers just the same, and their chil- dren will consult the papers long after they have passed to the other worid.—Stockton Record. On Sundsy morning the Enterprise pub- lished in detail the effort being made by the newspapers of the coast to secure the Repub- lican National Convention for San Francisco. It is doubtless that more effort will be made and influence brought to bear in favor of San Francisco than for any of its rivals. San Fran- cisco has & good show to get the convention, notwithstanding the fact that the geographi- cal position is an unfavorable factor. Next to San Francisco Pittsburg stands first in the race. The conference of members of the National Republican Committee of New York indicates that the meeting of this body will take vlace in Washington early in December. Then the time and place for the National Convention will be determined. The “late” convention people do not make themselves felt as strongly as was expected. At least the active politicians in the conference are in favorof an early meeting. Business in- terests would prefer a short Presidential cam- paign, as saving much money and being less paralyzing to commerce. It is probable that the silver question will occupy considerable time in the convention, and it is unquestionable that the silver cause will be benefited by having the convention held in a silver State. For this reason it is probable that the gold bugs will oppose San Francisco as the place for holding the cenven- tion in favor of Pittsburg.—Virginia Terri- torial Enterprise. BRIGHT BOYS N wCOIN" Wichita Lads Ready to Illus. trate Harvey's Ideas on Silver. An Interesting Part of the National Bimetallic Union’s Campaign of Education. WICHITA, Kaxs, Oct. 3L.—The dis- patch from Chicago announcing that the National Bimetallic Union of that city would begin their *‘Campaign of Educa- tion” by the presentation of the characters of “Coin’s Financial School” on Novem- ber 13, the chief actor being an unknown youth, had reference to a project that originated in the brain of a Wichita boy. After the publication of the dispatch the curiosity of the newspapers was aroused all over the country as to the identity of “the unknown' who was to act the part of Coin. Amos McClain of this city, a young man 18 years old, conceived the idea two months ago. He interested a friend, Irvin Taft, in the scheme, and the latter will represent the goldbug interlocutor. When ‘William Hope Harvey was here on Octo- ber 2 he encouraged the vlan and gave them valuable suggestions as to arranging a chart for the exposition, a picture in “Coin’s Financial School.” When dressed in his uniform McClain does not look over 14 years old, and is the exact counterpart of the well-known pic- tures. The boys have been under the instruc- tions of Dr. W. G. Hoss of the Western School of Oratory and have thoroughly mastered the work. McClain is ready to meet any advocate of gold monometallism and answer any question. He will make use of charts and the stereopticon and literally produce “Coin’s Financial School” in life. ‘The young men will give their first entertainment before the Sedg- wick County Silver League as soon as the rest of the paraphernalia arrives. It re- uires about two hours to give the book in ull. After their appearance before the National Bimetallic Emon at Chicago the young men will make a tour of the South- ern States. —— Mrs. Waller's Explanation. ‘WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 25.—Mrs. John L. Waller, accompanied by ex-Minis- ter John Langsdon, counsel for her hus- band, called at the State Department by appointment to-day and had a long talk with Assistant Secretary Uhl concerning the case of the imprisoned husband. She laid before Mr. Uhl written statements con- cerning the arrest, trial and conviction of Waller, and also made ve: explanatic of their contents, 1R vpae HOLMES A COOL ONE. With Smiles He Listens to the Evidence of His Crimes. TESTIMONY OF A “WIFE.” Not Once Did She Dare to Look at the Baneful Eye of the Murderer, HYPNOTISM IN THE COURT. Mrs. Pietzel Also Quails Before the Peculiar Looks of the Accused Swindler. PHILALELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 8L.—The fourth day of the Holmes trial opened this morning with the prisoner looking as fresh and bright as when he was first arraigned in court. When placed in the dock he scanned a letter and that the man is not wholly nerveless was shown by the way the paper shook in his hand. After court opened there was quite a wait for the District Attorney. Holmes passed the in- terval by discussing with his counsel and chatting and laughing with the court officers. Sidney L. Samuels, a Fort Worth (Tex.) lawyer, was the first witness to-day. Mr. Samuels’ testimony showed that Holmes or Pietzel never obtained any money on the $16,000 note, but used it to extort the $5000 from Mrs. Pietzel. Whether it is possible Holmes could have been plotting Pietzel's death in April or May he only probably knows, but he certainly had some motive for obtaining a regularly drawn-up note. The way he retained pos- session of it was to tell Mr. Samuels that he had lost the original note and another was -drawn up, leaving the first in his hands. William E. Geary, the agent of the Fidelity Insurance Company, who testified yesterday, was recalled for the purpose of proving that the prisoner has a wife in Willamette, I11., as well as the woman who isin this city, and whom he married un- der the name of Howard, so that the Dis- trict Attorney might be free to place “Mrs. Howard” on the stand. A vigorous objec- tion was overruled, and Geary testified to the fact of seeing and talking to a woman in Willamette who was known as Holmes’ wife, and so acknowledged to be by him. The next witness was Miss Georgiana Yoke, whom Holmes married under the name of H. M. Howard. For the first time since the trial Holmes gave way, and so acute was his emotion that he wept as the fair blonde-huired girl was led toward the witness-stand. When Holmes saw her he started, and his pallid face flushed and then grew ghastly pale. He beckoned eagerly to his attorneys, and with tears running down his cheeks, talked with great earnestness to them. Holmes urged his lawyers to use every means in their power to prevent the wit- ness from testifying, but their efforts were useless as the court overruled all their ex- ceptions, and ordered the examination to goon. The witness kept he1 eyes cast down, and, as with Mrs. Pietzel, a court officer repeated her low answers to the jury. Never once did she glance at the man she once thought was her husband. He, on the contrary, looked longingly toward her, and occasionally he wiped a tear away. Miss Yoke testified that she knew the prisoner under the names of Holmes and Howard. She met him in St. Lows, and while he was in jail engaged Thomas B. Harvey and Howe as lawyers to defend him. District Attorney Graham made no reference to any marriage between the prisoner and Miss Yoke, but had her go into detail over their movements from the time she was with him in Philadelphia in 1894 to the time of their departure, when she went to her parents’ home in Frank- lin Ind., and he returnea to Philadelphia. When he came back from Philadelphia he went to St. Louis and upon his return from that city he told her he had sold his Fort Worth property for $35,000, of which $10.000 was in cash. Judge Arnold gave permission for Holmes to cross-examine the witness him- self, which he did in a courteous and gentle manner, but nothing new developed nor was Miss Yoke’'s direct testimony changed. Holmes gave notice that he would probably call Miss Yoke as his wit- ness later. At 1 o’clock the court took a recess until 2. Miss Yoke was one of the common- wealth’s star witnesses, but her testimony was not as damaging to Holmes as had been predicted. Practically the only point of any particular importance brought out was the fact that the man who called upon Holmes at the house on North Eleventh street in this city was out of the house for a good part of the day following his call. The man alluded to is alleged to have been Pletzel. As to the rest of her testimony it was unimportant as bearing directly upon the murder. At the afternoon session William B. McKillop of Burlington, Vt., was the first witness. He identified a photograph of the house in Burlington, Vt., that Holmes had rented for Mrs. Pietzel under the name of Judson. Mrs. Pietzel was called to the stand again. Asshe was led to the stand Holmes looked fixedly at her as he did yesterday, and, incredible as it probably is, it seemed as if he wastrying to influence her by the power of his mind over hers, Mrs. Pietzel gives ground for some such belief for this by the way she avoided Holmes’ glance and the terror and shrink- g in her face when she does cateh his look. Mrs. Pietzel was called upon to identify the trousers her husband had on when he left home and then she was ex- cused. Dessie Pieizel also identified the articles. Dr. Henry L. Sidebotham, Coroner’s phy- sician, identified the clothing taken from the body when it was exhumed. Dr. Mat- tern, who testified yesterday, was recalled for the purpose of 1dentifying the clothing as that taken from the body of Pictzel. Here Mr. Graham met with another re- buff from the court, which refused to en- tertain his objection to the defense cross- examining the witness. The next witness was Detective Frank E. Geyer, one of the Commonwealth’s lead- ing witnesses and the man who unearthed the bodies of the Pietzel children. Geyer said he had an interview with Holmes in this city after the latter was brought here from Bosten. Geyer said to Holmes that he understood that the body found at 1316 Callowhill street was a substituted body. Holmes told him that on Sunday, Sep- tember 2, he went to New York and got the body from a medical student he knew, brought it to this city in a trunk the same afternoon and met Pietzel at the Western Union office, at Tenth and Chestnut streets, and gave him the check for the trunk. He then went to his boarding- house on Eleventh street and that night left for the West. Holmes told him that the next time he met Pietzel was in the postoffice at Detroit. Holmes said that he had given Pietzel instructions how to prepare the body for the swindle. He was to place it on his back, one hand upon the breast and the other by the side, and to place some liquid in the mouth and cause an explosion. This liquid was a wash for cleaning clothes that they were making. He also told him to burn the breast and arm. He also instructed Pietzel how, by working the armsof the corpse, he could inject chloroform into the stomach. At & subsequent interview Holmes re- tracted the foregoing statement and told Geyer that the body was that of Pietzel. On hearing this Geyer said: *Holmes, if that was Pietzel’s body, you murdered him and killed the three children.” “No, I did not, Mr. Geyer,” replied Holmes, “I will tell you about it.” Holmes then told Geyer the story that Pietzel committed suicide and of his find- ing him dead on Sunday morning. Holmes went to the house, found that Pietzel had killed himself by laying a cloth across his face and allowing chloroform to drop from a bottle upon the towel. Pietzel left a note for Holmes telling him that he in- tended to kill himself and advising him to make such use of his body as they had intended to do with the bogus corpse. After some reflection Holmes says he did this and fixed the body as it was found. In explanation of the whereabouts of the children, Holmes said they had gone to London with Minnie Williams. When asked where their trunks were Holmes said he left them in a hotel on West Madi- son avenue, in Detroit. At another inter- terview Holmes contradicted himself by stating that be had given the boy Howard in charge of a man named Hatch at In- dianapolis, and that he had never seen any of them since he sent the girls from Toronto. Mr. Graham proposed now to have Geyer tell of the finding of the children’s bodies. The defense objected strenuously and the jury was taken from the room while the argument upon the question was made to the court. The matter before the court was the most important that had yet come up. The Commonwealth undoubtedly has based much of its case upon the evidence of the killing of the children by Holmes, not alone for the effect it would produce, but to show that the murder of Pietzel was but one link in the chain of deaths he vlotted. It evidence of the murder of the children was barred out the Common- wealth’s case would lose much of its strength, as the evidence of the killing of Pietzel is purely presumptive and circum- stantial, and the prosecution might have difficulty in proving directly the murder by Holmes. With these facts in view Mr. Graham argued at great length and with much earnestness. He quoted from au- thorities sustaining his position, and burn- ing words of denunciation of Holmes and bis crimes fell from his lips. Holmes sat unmoved beneath the lash of the eloguence of Mr. Graham, and even smiled at times and made notes of the argument. Mr. Graham’s whole conten- tion was that the motive for killing the family was a mercenary one, as it was only by wiping out the Pietzel family that Holmes could obtain entire possession of what was held in common between him and Pietzel. So vital was the evidence of the killing of the children that Graham intimated that if it were rejected Holmes might be acquitted. Mr. Rotan made the argument for the defense. At 5:15 o'clock the court ad- journed till to-morrow. CUTTING DOWN® PASSES, Central and Western Roads Making Very Stringent Rules. There Is an Unusually Long List of Men Who Will No Longer Be “Deadheads.” ST. LOULS, Mo., Oct. 3L.—A meeting was held last night of representatives of all roads i the Centraland Western States to fix the basis of issuing passes in 1896, Every road was represented and a list of their names would be repeating the roster of general managers, vice presidents and other high officials of every important railroad in the West. In general terms the agreement of 1895 was affirmed, but especial stress was laid upon certain accepted cases that have heretofore been dead letter. Hereafter no passes are to be issued to the following: Representatives of refrigera- tor, private car or freight lines; no ex- change passes to twenty-five-mile roads and only three to 100-mile roads. The passes to employes of railways are re- stricted to men employed on actual and necessary business of railways, and half rates to clergymen and others are to be strictly scrutinized. The passes coming under the full discretion of passenger agents are those issued on account of charity. CHICAGO, IiL., Oct. 3L.—The general passenger agents of the Western roads re- sumed their session to-day. Amendments to the rules were taken up seriatim and considerable progress was made, but no vote was taken on the adoption of any sec- tion which has so far been considered. All difliculties between the Rio Grande and its opponents seem to have been satisfactorily compromised and the inaications now are tnat the agreement will go through with a rush. Before an adjournment is taken the question of establishinga bureau to pass on the qualifications of clergymen who are applicants for half fare permits will be taken up and the bureau will in all proba- bility be established. Itwill be seli-sup- porting, each applicant being required to pay 50 cents before he is passed upon. The Western lines Passenger Association NOW passes on missionaries, traveling min- isters and the floating element of the clergy in general. In showing the enormous pro- portions. to which the granting of clergy permits have grown 75,000 have been granted this year alone by the association. This does not include the regularly em- ployed ministers. It is the intention that the joint bureau include these also. STy Will Test Bowler’s Ruling. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 3L.—The Louisiana sugar people have about de- cided to test all questions arising out of Comptroller Bowler's action in declining to pay the sugar bounty appropriation by Congress in the United States Circuit Court of Louisiana. The two cases that will be used to test the constitutionality of the law are the case of Andrew H. Gay for $8758 22 under the $5,000,000 appropria- tion, and of Bleophas Legarde for $1274 50 out of the §238,000 gppropristion, BECOMES A CARDINAL, Satolli to Receive More Honors at the Hands of the Pope. OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED. The New Rank to Be Conferred ata Consistory to Be Held This Month. THE SENDING OF THE BERETTA. It Will Be Brought From Rome by a Member of the Noble Guard. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 31.—The re- ports that Monsignor Satolli, Apostolic Delegate to the United States, would re- ceive additional honors at the hands of Pope Leo XIII were verified at the lega- tion to-day, when Dr. Rooker, the dele- gate’s secretary, officially announced that Monsignor Satolli would be created a Cardinal at the consistory to be held in Rome about the middle of November. The date of the convocation has not yet been promulgated, but Monsignor Satolli will not go to Rome for the purpose of being invested with the insignia of his new office. Cardinal Gibbons will act for the Pope and Monsignor Sbarrotti, auditor of the papal delegation, will act as papal ablegate on that occasion. The beretta will be brought from Rome by a member of the Noble Guard and de- livered to Mgr. Sharretti, who will consign it to Cardinal Gibbons at the time of the ceremony. The messenger carrying the beretta will leave Rome the day after the consistory shall be adjourned, and the ceremony of conferring it upon the new Cardinal will be held probably early i De- cember in Baltimore. The elevation of Mgr. Satolli to the car- dinalate, it is stated at the legation, will not affect his present relations. He will remain in America, but after the imposi- tion of the beretta he will take the title of pro-delegate, the practice of the church not warranting a cardinal in oceupying the | position of delegate. The honor comes to Mgr. Satolli almost coincident with the third anniversary of his arrival in the United States and his en- tering upon the duties of Papal delegate. While the same advancement in rank is usually given to representatives of the Pope at the various courts in Europe hold- ing similar positions, with Mgr. Satolli his comes at a period somewhat in advance of the usual tine and is recognized as a mark of approbation and appreciation by the holy father of his services in this country. The ceremony of conferring the beretta, owing to the distance from Rome at which the new Cardinal is located, will differ in detaii somewhat from those used in this connection. The ordinary method is for the Pope to send an ablegate from Kome to carry the beretta, accompanied by a clerical secre- tary and a member of the Noble Guard. In this case Mgr. Sbarrotti, being on the ground and of suflicient rank, is named as Papal ablegate, and it is necessarg only to send a member of the Noble Guard to convey the emblem of office. It will be a repetition of the form fol- lowed in Cardinal Rampolla’s own case, when he was elevated to the cardinalate | while acting as Papal delegate at Madrid. The ceremony to be held in Baltimore will be attended by a large number of ecclesiastics of the church, especially in this part of the country, and will doubtless be a very brilliant affair. FROTH AND VAPORING [ Continued from First Page.) Hot Springs Athletic Club had telegraphed Julian that the attorneys of the club could not reach Little Rock until to-morrow, and consequently when the Assistant At- torney-General, Mr. Hemmingway, re- quested a continuance until to-morrow afternoon, because of the absence of At- torney-General Kinsworthy, there was no opposition. The pugilistic party returnea to the hotel in the custody of a Deputy Sheriff. The warrant upon which Julian and Titzsimmons were arrested is as follows: Pulaski Circuit Court, Second Division, the State of Arkansas—To Any Sheriff or Other Officer Authorized by Law to Make Arrests: It having been charged on oath before the above- named Circuit Court that Robert Fitzsimmons intends to engage in & prize-figlhit in_the State of Arkansas with one J. J. Corbett, and that if the same takes place the life of said Corbett and others will be endangered, and that Mar- tin Julian is alding and abetting the said Fitzdimmons to commit said offense, you are, therefore. hereby commanded to arrest the said Robert Fitzsimmons and Martin Julian and bring them before the Pulaski Circuit Court, Second Division, to be dealt with in the manner prescribed by law, by requiring of them bond to keep the peace. This warrant being issued by order of the said Circuit Court. Given under my hand and the seal of the said court this 28th day of October, 95. E. A. RANSEY, Clerk. By E. 0. CLARKE, Deputy Clerk. The return is as follows: State of Arkansas, County of Miller.—I hereby certify that 1 duly served and executed the withig warrant and have taken into cus- tody the within named Robert ritzsimmons and Martin Julian, and further executed this writ by delivering them into the custody of the Sheritf of Pulaski County, Witness my hand this 30th day of October, 1895. . T. DILLARD, Sheriff of Miller County. Under the law Fitzsimmons and Julian may be held in bonds not exceeding $5000 each to keep the peace should the court so decide that they contemplate a breach thereof, . Governor Clarke was mildly and placidly happy this afternoon. *I have declared all along,” he said, in answer to a question, “‘that there would be no prize-fighting in Arkansas on Oc- tober 31. As you see, there has been none. You will also see that there will be no prize-fighting in Arkansas on any other date so long as I am Governor of the State, The resources at my disposal are fully equal to any emergency, and prize-fighters and their patrons will save time and money by keeping out of the State.’” Fitzsimmons and Julian had an inter- view with Governor Clarke in his office in the Capiiol this evening. The conference was brief. Aftertheintroduction the Gov- ernor said: “I want you men to under- ‘stand that 1 have nothing against you personally, but you may as well under- stand that 1 will have no prize-fighting in Arkansas. I will exhaust every legal means to prevent it, and Iam as sure of succeeding as that the sun will rise to- morrow. That’sall. Good evening.” The pugilist and his manager were ‘evie dently impressed with the sincerity of the executive and returned to the hotelin a thoughtful mood. Corbett will be at a disadvantage in the legal proceedings here to-morrow in hav- ing to appear before Chancellor T. B. Mar- tin, while Fitzsimmons has to deal with Circuit Judge J. W. Martin. Under the law the Chancellor may fix the bond re- quired of Corbett at any sum he chooses, and it is hinted that unless the champion agrees to leave the State at once, he will be required to furnish a bond for as much as $50,000, or go to jail. On the other hand, Circuit Judge Martin cannot exceed $5000 in fixing Fitzsimmons’ bond. This development is causing great glee in the Fitzsimmons camp to-night. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 3L.—An at- tachment has been obtained for Bob Fitz- simmons, the pugilist, for $2000 by Friend, Howse & Grossman, attorneys, for legal services between January 1 and October 30. It was granted on the ground that he is a resident of Newark, N. J., and it is stated that he has property here liable to attachment. S41D TO BE A DEATH-TRAP. Report of a Grand Jury on the Govern- ment Printing Building. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 31.—The Grand Jury of the District of Columbia to-day reported to Judge Cole the result of a recent visit to and examination of the building occupied as the Government Printing Office. They recommend ‘‘that Congress, without delay, appoint a proper commission of expert professional men to examine absolutely and with cer- tainty into the architectural stability of the United States Government Printing Office.” There are often from 1200 to 1500 people employed in the building, which has been repeatedly denounced as a “death-trap.” Measures for relief have been in\'arinLl_\' a(opged by a disagreement between the two housesof Congress as to the new site to be selected, charges of jobbery being a:;\'aya made either on one side or the other. FARENELL OF DIPLOMATS Sir Charles Tupper and Sir Mac- kenzie Bowell Leave Wash- ington. It Is Said That Secretary Olney Will Approve the Bering Sea Findings. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 31.—Sir Charles Tupper and Bir Mackenzie Bowell left Washington for Ottawa in their private car at midnight Wednesday. Their de- parture was a surprise to every one in ‘Washington except Secretary Olney, with whom they had dined a few hours previ- ously, and Sir Julian Pauncefote, whose guests they were. There is no special sig- nificance attacned to their sndden depart- ure. From the moment of their arrival on Monday last they were in receipt of numer- ous dispatches having reference to the impending elections and other matters in which 8ir Mackenzie Bowell, as the Pre- mier of the Dominion, would naturally be interested and upon which his advice was sought. During the three days of their stay in Washington they discussed the terms of the Bering Sea convention so fully with Sir Julian that he feit that their presence was no longer needed, so far as their connec- tion with the matter is concerned. It is shrewdly suspected at the State Depart- ment that the draft of the convention which has been under consideration will be accepted by Secretary Olney with some modifications. Secretary Olney is under- stood to have acquainted President Cleve- land with its provisions, and unless some unlooked for objection is raised it will probabiy be completed within a few days. — OF INTEREST 70 THE COAST.

SON OF A RICH MAN Identity of the Burglar Shot Down by Dr. Joseph Hale. TAKEN FROM THE GRAVE 0ld Marks on the Body Showed the Deceased to Be Harry Huguely. A CHECKERED CAREER OF CRIME His Millionaire Father of Boston Had Pensioned Him on a Dol- lar a Day. ST. JOSEPH, Mo., Oct. 31.—The burglar killed by Dr. Joseph M. Hale at Newmar- ket last Sunday morning has been identi- fied as Harry Hugueley, the son of H. W, Hugueley, a Boston millionaire. The body was buried at Weston Tunes- day, but to-day it was aisinterred at the instance of a detective who came from 8t, Louis for the purpose of identifying it. After looking at the tattoo marks on the body, Hugueley having been shot in the back, the bullets coming out through the upper part of the abdomen, he declared that there was no doubt as to the identity of the dead man. The detective said that the burglar had been wayward for years, and that his father had finally given up all kope of re- forming him. He was sent to the Texas Penitentiary from Dailas a few years ago for forging the name of Sheriff Lewis of thateity to a check for $15. It was also charged that he had robbed a cattleman of a gold watch, but he could not be con- victed of the charge. ‘When he was arraigned for trial on the forgery charge he entered a vlea of guilty and was sent to prison for two years. Soon after he had pleaded guilty a tele- gram was received from his father em- vloying attorneys to defena him, but it was toolate. He escaped once from the penitentiary, but was recaptured and served his sentence out, His father then took him home and gave him employment in the wholesale liquor business in which he is engaged. It was not long, according to the story of the detective, until he forged his father's name to a check for $1000 and fled. Since then his father had allowed him $1 a day, to be paid through a friend in St. Louis each day that he called for it. He dis- appeared from St. Louis a short time ago and was not heard of again until the de- tective identified his body to-day. AN INDEPEND T KINGDOM. Mohammedan Inswrqents Have Defeated the Chinese.
