THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, MARCH 12, 1896. AAMS FOR THE CUBAN REBELS, An Expedition Ready to Sail From American Waters. NOT HEADED BY GARCIA The Veteran Blamed for the Failure of Former Filibus- tering Schemes. A BATTLE AT MONTEGUELO. Insurgents Reported to Have Been Defeated in a Five-Hour Engagement. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., March 11.—Al- though the report that another big fili- bustering expedition is ready to start for Cuba could not be confirmed here to-day with any degree of positiveness, enough was gathered from different sources to put rumor on a pretty solid foundation. said that the steamer which will take the expedition is ready to sail at any.mo- ent, and it is possible that the men and and ammunition which will form the vessel’s cargo are even now waiting for the ship at some point on the New Jersey coast. When the steamer arrives off this point she will probably lie outside the three-mile limi¢ and the men and arms will be taken aboard in boats. If he expedition was to have started to- ight, as rumored, it is likely that the prevailing gale may delay the departure. On one point only would the tocal Ciban lers talk. They assert positively that General Calixto Garcia will head no more expeditions. While crediting General Garcia with all loyalty to the Cuban cause they say he not circumspect enough, and that he was mainly responsi- ble for the failure of the expeditions that came to grief under his leadership. - REBEL Fou INITE.

Y., March 11.—A Sun special from Washington says: [t is under- i that Senor® Dupuy de Lome, the ish Minister, is surprised at the severe sms passed on him by the Senate for spaper article of the enators on t. e Cuban question. The Minister and Senator Hale ind others who defended his conduct ap- parently forgot the circumstances under which he was appointed to his office. In the Senate debate yesterday no ref- erence whs made to the fact that Dupuy de Lome's predecessor, Senor Murugua, was recalled by his Government & little less than a year ago for having talked too freely to ‘the mnewspapers regarding the crit his criticism in a ne speeches of certai z Maceo and Gomez | t landed, it may J' 1 dispute between the United Btates and Spain over the Allianca affair. Senor Murugua did not commit so great an offense as to criticize speeches of Senators, but merely cast reflections on certain phases of the controversy, the actions of State Department officials and others. He was recalled by his Government. Senor Dupuy de Lome, his successor, seems to be guilty of similar offenses, although he does not appear to realize the danger of suffer- ing the same punishment. gt FILIBUSTERS ARRAIGNED. Revolutionists Scized on the Bermuda Plead Not Guilty. NEW YORK, N. Y., March 1L.— General Calixto Garcia, Captain Law- rence W. Brabazon, Captain Samuel Hughes, B. G. Guerra and Bernnrdo( J.

Declares the Time Has Come Change to an Independent Republic. to NEW YORK, N. Y., March 11.—A Times | Canadian Republican Committee has issued a manifesto addressed to the Cana- dian people and declaring that the time has come to change from a colonial de- pendency to a free, prosperous and inde- pendent Canadian republic. Thousands | of copies, printed in French and English, | have been distributed from this city. “We are to-day governed,” declares the manifesto, ‘‘not in the interest of our- selves—the people of Canada—but in the | interests of and by an oligarchy composed | of corrupt and needy politicians and place-hunters in Canada and usurers and bondholders in England. We are, as you | know only too well, eaten up by taxes, the | greater part of which goes to maintain and strengthen the position of these para- sites. 1t is estimated that every year Canada has to send out of the country to England not less than about $30,000.000 to pay the interest on Government loans, bonds and mortgages, debentures. This money comes out of the earnings of a hard-working and industrious people. We are in slavery to these politicians and usurers.”” After declaring that an attempt is being made to draw the dominion into a scheme of imperial federation with the object of compelling Canadians to fight England’s | foreign wars the manifesto concludes: ““England has by means of titles, decora- | tions and other «ways, bought over and corrupted numbers of our political men, members of the judicature and many others to serve her purpose. These men | are England’s servants and not the ser- | vants of the people of Canada. It is to { these that we owe that we are oppressed with debt and taxation and that hundreds of thousands of our people have to ex- patriate themselves in order to find a living denied them orrendered impossible on their own soil. It is time that we freed ourseives and declared that henceforth Canada and Canadians should no longer remain vassals of an alien Government. The monarchical form of Government has no place on American soil. It is only as a free and in- dependent republic that Canada can enjoy her political freedom and deliver herseif from her present condition of vassalage and subjection.” The manifesto has created great excite- ment. il Germany’s Sugar Tax. BERLIN, Germaxy, March 11 — The Reichstag committee to which the Govern- | ment’s sugar bill was referred signitied its approval to-day of the proposal made by Herr von Puttkamer, fixing the annual limit of the total tax on_sugar production at 17,000,000 double quintals. All of the other proposed amem?ments to the original bill were rejected by the committee. The vote on Herr von Puttkamer’s amendment was 13 to 7.

The article stated that he had been hit with a ball so severely as to break hisankle, all of which was_the veriest fiction. How the idea originated is a mystery, but that it should have been given a half-column space by a correspondent is stranger still. Lange has been receiving the condolences of his friends all day over his reported accident. Miss Keifer, manager of the Stanford basket-ball team, has posted the following auswer to the Berkeley girls’ acceptance of the Stanford challenge: Miss Edith J.

Onaccountof the liability to accident we prefer a dirt or tanbark floor to a wooden one. We are compelled to ask you to reconsider the date of the game, since our spring vacation occurs between March 21 and 30, and several members of the team have arranged to go home at that time.

As far as the O.

Miss Nettie Royal, who was queen of the carnival two years ago, is also taking an active interest in the success of the enter- tainment, though neither of these young ladies wili allow her name to be used asa The financial committee report remark- able success in obtaining subscriptions and a lack of money will not hamper the enterprise. One thousand dollars will be set apart for music and forty cash prizes, ranging from §5 to $25, will be offered for the best decorations in the carriage parade. The prizes for the bicycle parade have not been agreed upon yet. George F. King, chairman of the hall committee, is making arrangements for a game of living whist to be played at the floral ball.

STAN¥ORD UNIVERSITY, CaL., March 11.—The glee and mandolin clubs of Stanford are preparing for a long tour during the spring vacation beginning on March 20. Both organizations are in bet- ter condition for such an undertaking than they have ever been before, and, asitis the first time in her history that the uni- versity has sent out on a long trip her two vopular musical clubs, the undertaking will be watched with no little interest. A forerunner has been sent out to engage houses, and the clubs will give entertain- ments in Oakland, San Jose, Stockton, Modesto, Los Angeles, San Diego and other Southern California cities. The glee club is well fitted with soloists this season. Field, Baker, Dillon and Abbott are a quartet of the best soloists Stanford has ever had. The chorus is strong, and since | Pasmore, the musical instructor, began hisg work here, is much more artistic in its ex- ecution. : A concert is to be given about Thursday week in San_ Francisco, and special effort is being mude by the musical talent to ren- der an interesting programme.

SATA BIRGIRA AFARS A Feud Which Promised a Tragical Ending Is Amica- bly Settled. Cold Stream Canyon Water Rights Case Attracting Much Attention. SANTA BARBARA, Car., March 11.— An unexpected turn to the proceedings which were attracting wide interest to-day occurred in Justice Crane's court at the preliminary examination of Mort Kilgore, charged with assault with intent to mur- der committed upon the person of young Constable Clarence Kelton last Friday. An old friend of Kilgore, Thomas Hol- loway of Dageett, San Bernardino County, appeared and offered to take Kilgore with him to Daggett, where he is interested in an extensive irrigation enterprise, and will give him a comfortabie home and oceupa- tion where he is able to work. Kelton generously consented to permit the prose- cution to be indefinitely postponed. His bondsmen_withdrew and Kilgore was per- mitted to depart on_his own recognizance, leaving on the evening train. This peaceable settlement o! a feud which promised a tragical ending is hailed with satisfaction here, where the Keltons are generally recognized as law-abiding citizens of good reputation and as brave and efficient officers. e WATER RIGHTS CONTEST. Swit to Quiet Title Against the Gould Company. j SANTA BARBARA, Cir., March 11.— James L. Barker to-day carried the war into Morocco in the case of the much-con- tested water rights in Cold Stream Canyon, Montecito, by bringing suit to quiet title against George H. Gould et al., the latter constitutinga company which has for years claimed all the water developed in this canyon and along the line of the stream bearing its name. As Mr. Barker has a tunnel in the vicinity which has already developed a dozen miners’ inches, a supply which he is offering to sell to the city at a very reasonable fizure, and as the city it- self is prospecting for water in the same canyon, the progress of this suit will be watched with much interest by the people of the town and valley. —_——— FORT WASHAKIE TRAGEDY.

CHAMBERS CAUGHT - NEAR WOODLAND. One of the Most Desperate Criminals in the Country. OFFICERS GET THE DROP When Arrested He Was Engaged in Carpentering in a Vineyard. LETTER TO DETECTIVE HUME. Maintains a Sullen Reticence, Except to Claim He Is Not the Man ° Wanted. WOODLAND, Car.,, March 11.—Charles Chambers, alias Lamont, whom Wells, Fargo & Co. regard as one of the most desperate criminals, was arrested near ‘Woodland this afternoon by Sheriff Grif- fin and Deputies Brown and Hughes. Chambers is wanted for nearly everything in the category of crime, from stage-rob- bery committed in Alturas County, Idaho, to attempted murder at Benicia in this State. Owing to the desperate character of the man every precaution possible was taken to-day to prevent his escape. When ar- restea he was busily engaged in carpenter- ing at the Edgington vinevard and did not notice the approach of the officers un- til startled by the command, “Throw up your hands.” Turning suddenly from his work, and with a hammer in his uplifted right hand, be assumed a threatening attitude, but it was only for a second, when he realized that escape was hopeless and allowed the hammer to fall to the ground with the re- mark: “Weil, gentlemen, what is this all about?” But before receiving an answer to his question he continued, “I guess I know, but I am not the man you want.” On the 1st of March Chambers was released from San Quentin, his twenty- year term, less credits, at that place hav- ing expired. He went directly to Sacra- mento and thence to this City, where he has been since March 7. His arrest was due to the following letter, written to Detective J. B. Hume; WoopLAND, March 8, 1896. Mr. J. B. Hume, San Francisco: No doubt you will be surprised to hear from me, but cir- cumstances alter cases a good many times, 50 I thought I would let you know where I am. Iam working for Mr. G. Edgington for 50 cents a day and board mysell, so you see 1 can’t make much money. I thought you could help me until I can get something to do, 50 will ask you to do one of three things. You | can send me & few dollars, or you can pay my way to St. Louis, Mo., or you ean give me em- | ployment. Ican’t compel youto do this, but | I will not go hungry in a land of plenty. Iam | kuown here by the name of Charles Lamont, | so youcan address me that way. Yours sin. cerely, CHARLES CHAMBERS. Upon receipt of the letter Hume tele graphed Governor McConnell of Idaho, who immediately wired Sheriff Griffin as follows: Boise Crry, Idaho, March 11. Sheriff Grifin: 1f Charles Chambers, escaped convict from our penitentiary, is in California, canse his immediate arrest. Notity me, so that 1 may send an officer. W. J. McCONNELL, Governor of Ideho. | An hour after the receipt of the fore- going the following was received: SAN Fraxcrsco, March 11. Sheriff Grifin: Have Chambers arrested at once. Idaho newspapers have his whereabouts | and he may be informed and escape. J. B. HUME, per Governor McConnell. In 1881 Chambers was convicted in Al- turas County, Idaho, of stage robbery and sentenced to a term of nine years. A short time after his incarceration he escaped, but was recaptured by United States Mar- shal Boblin in Idaho. His second and successful escape was made in March, 1883, He came to California and committed a number of robberies, and was captured at Benicia in August, 1836, after wounding three of his captors. He was sentenced to a term of twenty years in San Quentin. The officials followed Cbambers into the postoffice last night and heard the prisoner inquire and saw him receive a letter through the open window. This letter was from Hume. The arrest would have been made then had the instructions from Governor McConnell been received. From the postoffice Chambers was shadowed to the place where the arrest was made. Chambers acknowledged to Under Sheriff Brown that he was released from San Quentin on March 1. At the jail the prisoner refused to be led into a conversation, and to all questions propounded, answered : “‘I havenothingto say.” The following telegram was received from Hume, when apprised of the arrest: SAN FRrANcISco, March 11—3:30 P. M. G. W. Grifin, Sheriff, Woodland, Cal.: Have telegraphed Governor McConuell of the arrest and suggested that he communicate with you. Hold Chambers at all hazards. He is bad. J. B, HUME. SEWAGE IN THE RIVERS, American and Sacramento Choked With Filth From Towans Along Their Banks. Alarming Conditions Reported by Mem. bers of the State Board of Health. CHICO, CAr., March 11.—Dr. J. R. Laine of Sacramento, secretary of the State Board of Health, and Dr. C. A. Ruggles of Stockton, arrived in Chico this morning, | investigating the sewage question at Red Bluff and Redding and Chico. To a CaLL correspondent Dr. Ruggles said there had been much complaint by the residents of Sacramento of sewage being dumped into the Sacramento River, thereby making it | more unfit than naturally for drinking purpose. . “What started the complaint, and caused us to decide to look into the question,” said the doctor, ‘‘was the discovery that the entire sewage of Folsom prison was run into the American River, and con- veyed down that stream to Sacramento. ‘When the Board of Health investigated, the defense was made that Redding, Red Bluff, Marysville and other cities dumped their sewage into the Sacramento River, and the Folsom le did not see why they should be prohibited from doing the | McDonald vault at the city cemetery- same. At Red Bluff, one of the prettiest spots in the State, there is a bad state of affairs. There are only five or six blocks sewered at all, and fhe vile stuff is all dumped into the Sacramento River.’* Dr. Ruggles inquired about the sewage of Chico, and_when told that everything was carted off in excavators he was sur- prised, and said: “You are far behind the times. A city like Chico, with such im- portance, should have one of the best tems in the State. Sewerage is of vast mportance, and the sooner your city recognizes that fact the better for you all.” During the conversation Dr. Laine gave some interesting facts regarding the bene- fit of sewerage. The physicians visited the normal school, and were well pleased with the sanitary conditions. They will go to Marysville to-night. Sy gL S TRAGEDY AT HEDGES. One Mexican Kills Another in a Quarrel Over a Woman. SAN DIEGO, CAL., March 11.—A special from Hedges, a mining camp on the desert near Ogilby Station, gives some particulars of the shooting of a Mexican miner there Monday night. It says: The scene of the shooting is Sam Wil- son’s saloon and a house of prostitution, where H. Randolph not long since shot and killed two brothers named Gonzalea. A Mexican gambler named W, Serrano and another Mexican named Carabojoles quareled over one of the women, and Ser- rano shot the other man twice, once in the groin and the other a flesh wound, near the abdomen. The wounded man is fa- tally shot. The gambler, Serrano, immediately skipped out to parts unknown and a warrant has been issued by the Justice here for his arrest. This fellow Serrano is from Colton, or near there, and is one of the hangers-on at the Wilson dive. This resort and two others of similar character were licensed by the Board of Supervisors of San Diego County. There are now five of these saloon dives surrounding the village and mining camp of Hedges. “These saloons are mnot all i- censed, but the parties running them feel sure that they have only to apply for li- cense to get it. The Board of Supervisors of this county have been repeatedly nrged to be more strict in the granting of liquor licenses in such camps and in the punishment of saloon-keepers doing business without a license. The population there is rough lfmd full of fight, and the peace officers are | ew. District Attorney Sweet and Supervisor Jasper will go there next week and will | try to straighten out matters a little.

Allof the public buildings were closed | during the day, and business was generally | suspended throughout the citv. The ser- | vices were held at the Presbyterian church, which was crowded to the doors, while the streets in the neighborhood were lined with people who failed to secure ad- mittance. The ceremony was conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. W. Lundy, who delivered a brief and touching eulogy. At there- | quest of the family the services were very short. The cortege was one of the longest ever witnessed in this city, many people being present from the surrounding country and following the body to the grave.

The razors were found under the carpet, | behind the bureau where he had crouched | in hopes of escaping observation, and the | pistol and other articles were secreted in | the bed clothing. At a late hour to-night Hart made a full confession to three burglaries in six hours and gave up the plunder. NEW T fo your doctor for advice; he is ths best man to tell you what medicine you need.
