THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1896. CAPTAIN HEALY'S HEAVY SENTENCE, Barely Escapes Dismissal From the Revenue Service. DROPPED TO THE FOOT. Suspended From Rank and Com- mand and Placed on Waiting Orders. THIS HOLDS FOR FOUR YEARS. If Again Found Guilty of Using Intoxicants Excessively He Will Be Dismissed. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 9.—Captain Michael A. Healy of the revenue cutter service, Treasury Department, stationed at Ban Francisco, was to-day given the next most severe sentence to dismissal by Sec- retary Carlisle. The order reads: ““That Captain Michael Healy be dropped to the foot of the list of captains of the revenue cutter service, and that he retain that place hereafter; that he be suspended from rank and command and kept on waiting orders for a term of four years, and that he be publicly reprimanded by reading this order on board all vessels of the revenue cutter service by the com- manding officer of each at a muster of the commanding officers, and admonished if again found guilty of the excessive use of intoxicants during the term of his sen- tence thereafter, whether afloat or shore, he will be summa1ily dismissed from the service.” Captain Healy commanded the United Btates steamer Bear, and charges were preferred against him by Lieutenants Daniel and Emery and Assistant En- gineer Jones. Becretary Carlisle, in his review of the case, states that Captain Healy has served thirty years in the cutter service, during which time he ‘‘performed much creditable and valuable services,” and while there are no mitigating circumstances, in view of the recommendation of the trial board that “such clemency as may be consistent with the gravity of the case and the welfare of the revenue cutter service’ be extended to him, Secretary Olney modi- fied the findings of the court as given. Secretary Carlisle hesitated for some time before approving the sentence im- posed lest a bad precedent might be estab- lished which wonld return to plague the rtment. The treasury officials have a overwhelmed with letters ard tele- grams on the subject asking that leniency be shown the erring captain, and a number of members of Congress have ed upon Secretary Carlisle for tne ne purpose. As it stands the sentende is quite se- g Captain Healy as it does at fout of tne list of his grade for four ears and directing that a reprimand for conduct of that official be read to the crew of every ship and station of the ser- » far as known the charges against s in the revenue marine service have ot yet been acted upon. WESTERN MEN AT WORK, Oontinued from First Page. d Hon. O. p. Salisbury of Utah also talked silver. I'he Utah delegation,” he said, “is solid for silver, of course. We purpose doing the very best we can for the white metalin the convention, but we have little hope of accomplishinganything. The party seems determined to commit itself to the gold standard. Ifa declaration for gold is made the Democrats will carry the State without difficulty. The Republicans have a nor- mal majority of from 2500 to 3000, but that would be wiped out entirely.” Among the late arrivals was ex-Governor Powell Clayton of Arkansas. He is firmly of the opinion that McKinley will win on the first ballot, and thought the only mat- ter upon which there could be speculation was the platform. I favor the present monetary standard,” he said, “‘and only such limitation on the coinage of silver money as will be neces- sary 1o maintain silver at a parity with gold. The present ratio of 32 to 1 should be maintained and supported.”’ The National Committee will meet to- morrow at 12 o'clock, and will then de- cide upon the names of the temporary of- ficers. They will also take up the contests s0 far as settling them for the preliminary roll. C. W. Fairbanks of Indiana, ex-Gov- ernor Merriam of Minnesota and George A. Knight of California, also Proctor of Vermont have been mentioned for tem- porary chairman. That part of California’s delegation now here will inaugurate a boom for Ulysses S. Grant for the Vice-Presidency. George A. Knight of San Francisco will place Grant in. nomination. It is predicted that unbounded enthusiasm will follow the oratorical effort, which is sure to asso- ciate fatherand son, and play to the Grand Army sentiment. Sergeant-at-Arms Byrnes gave out the following for publication to-morrow: ““Much inquiry having been made rela- tive to the extent of the damage done to the convention hall by the cycione, I think it ‘proper to inform the public that the damage has been entirely repaired, ana that the hall is as good as it was before the siorm. Everything is in readiness for the convention, The assistants have nearly all been selected, and-they will report at the office of the sergeant-at-arms in the Auditorium building on Monday, the 15th inct., at 10 A. M. G. N. Wiswell of Wiscon- ein, first assistant sergeant-at-arms, will, under the general supervision of the ser- geant-at-arms, direct the work of all the employes in and around the Auditorium building. “No commissions will be forwarded; they will be handed to the appointees in- dividually, at the time and place above- mentioned, and on the same day the tick- ets of admission to the convention will be issued by the sergeant-at-arms from Room No. 220 1n the Odd Fellows’ building on Olive street, between Eighth and Ninth streets. T. E. ByrNgs, “‘Sergeant-at-Arms,” The finishing touches of the Auditorium were put on to-day. The vortraits of General Grant and Admiral Farragut were put up yesterday. The great naval com- mauder looks down on the members of the convention from the gallery railing at the east end of the hall. Directly opposite is a portrait of General Phil Sheridan, representing the army. The still greater | leaders, Lincoln and Grant, are on the two sides, the first almost directly over the speaker’s stand and Grant at the center of the south gallery opposite. Higher than all, just above Lincoln, is Washington. Each is surrounded by American flags. Some have wondered why Sherman, who lived and was buried in St. Louis, and who outranked Sheridan when he retired from the army, was not selected instead of the latter for one of the four places of honor with Washington. The answer is that the local committee desired to have the cavalry as well as the infantry repre- sented. The absence of pictures and mottoes representing leaders of the Republican varty of to-day is noticed. The omission was intentional. The local committee, supposed to be tinctured with McKinley- ism, was placed under restrictionsin the matter. Here is one of the clauses of the contract signed by Chairman Kennard—a Democrat, by the way—and his colleagues: “The citizens’ committee of St. Louis agrees to furnish to the Republican Na- tional Committee a hall of the seating capacity of 12,000 or more, handsomely and properly decorated and lighted, with- out any expense whatever to said National Committee, it being understood that in the decoration of said hall said committee shall not use the picture, photograph or name of any living Republican, nor shall any insignia or motto be used calculated to advance the cause of any candidate for | the Presidency.”” Probably no flag in the Auditorium will attract more attention or cause so much comment as that of the Cuban insurgents. It occupies a conspicuous place, in fact the most conspicuous place in the entire building. The colors of the Cuban Re- public can be seen from any seat in the gallery or dress circle, and that is more than can be said of any other National emblem in the building. Even the Presi- dent’s flag or banner, just above the Cuban colors, will not be visible to some of the occupants of the dress circle. —_— TO REMAIN AT CANTON. But McKinley Wiill Have a Private Wire to St. Louis. CANTON, Osio, June 9.—Major Mec- Kinley’s private secretary, James Boyle, will leave to-morrow for Columbus, from whence he will go to 8t. Louis, Mrs. Mc- Kinley left to-day for Columbus to visit iriends. Major McKinley will remain in Canton until after the convention. A private wire connects his residence with Mark Hanna’s room in the Southern Hotel, St. Louis, and there will be constant commu- nication between the two gentlemen. e BRADLEY’S SENSATION. Will Make an Expose of Certain McKinley Letters. FRANKFORT, Ky., June 9.— The threatened expose of a lot of letters from Governor McKinley to Governor Bradley was not made public by the latter, ac- cording to promise, to-mght. Governor Bradley was at work at the executive office until a late hour, and it was authoritatively announced that he was engaged in the preparation of the forthcoming statement. The publication of the correspondence which Governor Bradley proposes to make public, it is in- timated, will be of an extrcmely sensa- tional nature. Nominated for Congress. PITTSBURG, Pi., June 9.—In the Twenty-second Congressional Republican Convention held here to-day John Dalzell was honored for the tenth time by unani- mous nomination for Congressman.

DID MUCH FOR STUDENTS. Return of Dr. Harry J. From France. NEW YORK, N.Y., June 9.—Among the passengers on the steamship Touraine, which arrived in this port yesterday, was Dr. Harry J. Furber Jr. of Chicago, a man to whom xll students owe a deep aebt of gratitude for the efforts he has recently brought to a successful issue by opening to them the doors of the colleges, universities, institutes ana schools of France on even more advantageous terms than are those of Germany. Heretofore American students seeking a European education have generally gone to Germany on account of the many restrictions imposed by France. Dr. Furber devote a year to his work, and as a result on Jan- uary 22 a ministeriai decree from she Con- seil Superieur de L’Instruction Publique was issued, which introduced changes into the faculties of science throughout France which enable a student from the United States bearing proper credentials to take any course, or any part of a course, at any of the French institutions. He can, more- over, pass an examination in any one sub- ject and obtain a certificate, and when he has passed on all the subjects necessary he can, by sending in a thesis and under- going a final examination, obtain his full diploma. Furber Jr. FREIGHT AG NTS CONVENE. President Ripley Gives Good Advice to Railroad Men. CHICAGO, Irn., June 9.—Fully 250 members, with their wives and daughters in many cases, attended the ninth annual convention of the Nationsl Association of Local Freight Agents, which opened to- day at tbe Tremont House. Mayor Swift extended the hand of welcome in a pleas- ant speech and the freight men listened during the morning to addresses from President Ripley of the Santa Ke system and President Carpenter of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois road. The conven- tion was called to order by Lot Brown of ithe Burlington, president” of the associa- tion. In denouncing certain legislation to which railroads are subjected President Ripley said: *‘One reason why railroads are subjected to so much preposterous legislation is the apathy existing among railroad men as to the manufacture of public opinion. They should take a more active interest in public matters and do everything they can to resist the efforts of the demagopues.” The convention will continue to Friday. pr Approved by the President. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 9.—The President this afternoon approved the Postoffice appropriation bill. e P Austin Corbin’s Funeral. NEW YORK, N.

Governor Budd was cen- sured in the following manner: We disapprove of the administration of Governor Budd as disloyal to party and party principles. We charge that the policy and ap- pointments of the State’s Executive have been largely dictated by Republican influences and selfish personal and political aims. His appointees to positions in State institutions have been made with a view rather to the conciliation of Republican bosses than to the recognition of party merit or ser- vices, and we dencunce the removal by his ap- pointees of competent Democrats from places in such institutions to make room for untried Republican relatives. tadkelF OB TO SPEAK AT SANTA CRUZ.

LOS ANGELES, CaL, June 9.—The nuptial relations of Don Jose Mascarel and his companion of a quarter-century seem now in a fair way to be settled per- manently. The wealthy octogensrian and his aged spouse were joined in the holy bonds of wedlock by Rev. Father Adam a few days ago, to the great astonishment of their many acquaintances, who had almost forgotten or never knew but that they had been married all these years. The cere- mony was unique in that there was no license from the County Clerk authorizing it. A question was raised as to the legal relations of the couple, and so the groom took out a regular marriage license to-day, preparatory to & final and irrevocabie union. e RAN BEFORE A STREETCAR. A Mother’s Soream Causes the Death of Her Child.

The car strack her, dash- insd out her brains. No arrests have been made. DUNHAM: ROAMS NEAR SAN MIGUEL, Two Persons Encounter a Man Resembling the Fugitive. BEGS FO00D OF BOTH. The Stranger Stops a Woman and Asks for a Morsel to Eat. APPLIES AT A RANCHHOUSE. He Is Heavily Armed and Bears Scars Indicating a Recent Encounter. SAN JOSE, CAL, June 9.—Since the exciting news of Murderer James C. Dunham’s appearance at Smiths Creek no reports have been received at the Sheriff’s | office that afford more hope than a message which came this afternoon from San Miguel, and which seems to give reliable information that Dunham was within a mile of that town Monday night. The message was received at 3:30 p. M. and was from U. 8. Holmes of San Miguel. It siated that a man supposed to be Dunham was seen on Monday afternoon at 50’clock on the road one mile south of { San Miguel. A lady who was driving along the road was stopped by the fellow and he begged her to give him some food. She noticed that he wore dark clothes, a black cloth hat, had a scar on his face and another on the back of his left hand,which had evidently been badly scratched. His feet were wrapped in sacks. His trousers were badly torn and about his waist was a belt filled with cartridges. Before leaving her the stranger begged that she say noth- ing about meeting him. That the description in the dispatch does not fully correspond with the many other descriptions given by people who have imagined that they had seen the | murderer adds weight to the supposition | that the man was Dunbam, inasmuch as | it shows that the woman did not model her description from what she had read as to Dunham’s appearance. When last seen Dunbam did not have a cloth hat, as she reported this man to have worn, but it is not unlikely that he had an extra hat along with him. In addition to this message a letter was received at the Sheriff’s office from W. P. | Carey of Carey Bros., East San Jose butch- ers, written under date of this morning | from Bradley, conveying further evidence that Dunham is in the San Miguel country and is making southward as rapidly as | possible. Mr. Carey had been in Chotme Valley, several miles from San Miguel. where he was purchasing cattle. On his way home he stopped at a place called Slacks Can- yon, and remained at John Meadows’ house last night. Meadows told him that a suspicious- looking fellow stopped at his house about |9 o'clock Sunday night and asked for something to eat. He described the stranger to Carey as a man wearing a | plack sack coat and a soft brown hat. ‘When he came to the door he had a re- | volver in his right hand and, on being in- vited in, he left an overcoat outside by the door, under which he put a rifle or shot- gun. When he had finished eating his meal he left a half-dollar on the table and went away without asking any questions. He had considerable ammunition in a belt which he wore. The landlord did not suspect the stranger of being the much-wanted murderer, be- cause of the fact that he and his wife had heard nothing of the case, but he did be- lieve he was a criminal. On Monday he told a neighbor of the fellow’s visit, and when shown a picture of Dunham he identified it as being a like- ness of the visitor. The traveler was on foot, and Mr. Carey | stated in_his letter that the country in that locality is so extremely rough that he could stay there for a long time without | being seer. These reports caused a complete change of the plans made by Sheriff Lyndon, for before they were received he and Deputy Juan Edson had started for Bakersfield. The reports from Bakersfield on Monday, to the effect that ‘Dunham, or a man very much resembling him, wasin that local- ity, were the best the Sheriff haa to work upon, and he therefore decided to go south. He and Edson boarded the 1:15 train for Oakland this afternoon, and would have gone on to Bakersfield had they not been beaded off by a telegram from Under Sheriff Benson apprising them of the re- ports from San Miguel. They returned to San Jose this evening on the 8:30 train. Bradley is hardly more than a stopping- place on the raiiroad, eleven miles north of San Miguel, and Slacks Canyon, where Durham was seen Sunday night, is a few miles distant. Sheriff Lyndon upon his return decided that he and Edson would board the 10:17 o’clock train to-morrow morning for San Miguel, and from that point endeavor to get on Dunbam’s trail and run him down. Under-Sheriff Benson sent telegrams to all of the officers he could reach in the San Miguel country, and also to Sheriff Ballou of San Luis Obispo, Sheriff Mat- thews of Salinas and Sheriff Holbrook of Hollister. Both Ballou and Holbrook will probably join Sheriff Lyndon_ to-morrow morning, the former at San Miguel and the latter at Sargents station. Sheriff Matthews may possibly become one of the arty. L Di{ ion Superintendent Frazer was at San Luis Obispo to-night and a telegram was sent to him asking that railroad con- ductors and brakemen on his division be notified as soon as possible to be on the alert for Dunham. Both clews being more than ordinarily plausible, the officers conclude that Dun- ham traveled from Slacks Canyon to San Miguel during Sunday night and Monday. He would, therefore, have about forty- eight hours the start of them when they reach San Miguel. A message Ifrom Salinas says that a Sheriff 's posse started on the search as soon as the woman who had encountered Dunham made known the incident. - Men COLONEL MAYNARD DEAD. Passing of a Warrior Repeatedly Honored by the Sovereigns of Europe and Asia, SAN JOSE, Car., June 9.—Colone E. G. Maynard, a retired English officer, late of her Majesty’s Eighty-eighth Regi- ment, died at his home on Almaden road at 9 o’clock this morning, after a brief ill- ness. of Yorkshire, England, in 1821, and was educated at Edinburgh] Military College. ‘When 21 years of age he obtained a com- mission in the British army and served through the Crimean war and the Indian mutiny, and in both he so distinguished himself by his gallantry that at the close of the later war he was presented to Queen Victoria, who bestowed upon him a medal of valor, an emblem which is only given in cases of extreme bravery. Later he was also given the Order of Mediji by the Sultan of Turkey and a medal by the King of Sardinia. 2)n three otner occasions Queen Victoria presented him with medals. He was the leader of a storming party that was sent to take the Russian quarries in front of Sebastopol, and to his bravery the success of that un- dertaking was greatly due. For the last twenty-one years he resided in Santa Clara County. He leaves six sons and one daughter. . CIGAR-THIEVES CAPTURED. Two Burglars Arrested After Disposing of Their Loot. SAN JOSE, CAL., June 9.—Nick Pied- mont and George Welch Jr. were arrested to-day on complaint of John Cavallaro, who charges them with having looted his store at the corner of Fifth and St. James streets on the night of May 21. Officers Anderson and Haley arrested Piedmont and Haley captured Welch. They were arraigned and their examindtion was set for June 13 at 2 o’clock. Their bail was fixed at $1000, in default of which they went to jail. The officers procured the information leading to the arrest at M. Peixotto’s on North Market street, where it was learned that Welch and Piedmont had sold 400 cigars soon after the burglary. It was then learned that they had soid a quantity of cigars to a Chinese working at the Eureka Hotel. Welch claims that he did not know anything of the burglary. Be- sides the cigars, about $15 in coin was taken from a tiil. Becomes an Insolvent. SAN JOSE, CaL., June 9.—J. H. Nichols of the Mechanics’ Planing-mill of this city filed a petition in insolvency to-day. The mill was attached several weeks ago, and a petition to have Nichols declared an in- solvent was filed yesterday. The liabili- ties ageregate $8376, the greater portion of which is due on secured notes. The re- sources include four lots valued at $2400, the mill and machinery valued at $8900, and book accounts aggregating $1083. The real property is all subject to mortgage. The Pailnre is ascribed to losses iniuni- ness and lack of work. - Pratt Home Directors Elected.

SEATTLE, Wasgs.,, June 9.—Memorial day was observed by the townsin Alaska this year, the exercises being unusually im- pressive at Juneau, where eight of the na- tion’s defenders lie buried. The steamship Willapa to-day broucht ‘advices of active prepartions for Fourth of July celebrations at Sitka, Juneau, Treadwell, Douglas and Circle City. Patrick Doyle, a miner, 35 years old and formerly of San Francisco, committed sui- cide by taking cocaine at Juneau. The Mining Record at Juneau says: An imm ense auriferous gravel deposit, carry- ing $5 in gold to the yard, has been discov- ered at Anchor Point, on the north side of Kachemak Bay, the ground having been taken up by a Boston syndicate. A ledge bas been discovered in the Silver Queen mine on Sheep Creek, mining $400 1n gold totheton. The Record announcesthat the first attempt to drive cattle across the di- videinto the Yukon country will soon be made. One hundred animals will be taken in via Chilcat Pass and Doulton Trail and thence from Five Fingers up the Yukon in steamers to Circle City and other ASTORIA CALLS FOR MILITIA Oregon Guards Ordered in Readiness to Move at Once. COLUMBIA RIVER WAR. Renewed Excitement Caused by the Burning of a Large Cannery. FURTHER BLOODSHED FEARED. Striking Fishermen May Resist the Attempt by the Military to Restore Order. PORTLAND, Og., June 9. — It was learned from a private source to-day that between midnight and 9o’clock to-mor- row morning the First Regiment of the Oregon National Guard will be summoned to embark for the Lower Columbia River to take a hand in preventing tshermen’s riots. There is an understanding among the companies that they areto be prepared togo on an hour’s notice. There is a strung nnder-current of excitement per- vading Portland to-day over the prospect of war on the river. The secrecy covering the movements of the National Guard leads to numerous baseless rumors, which are ridiculous on the face of them. The militia officials evidently are afraid to deny street rumors because by so doing it would appear that they are attaching too much importance to them. Notwithstanding the fact that the gravity of the situation down the river demands some action (unless the counsel for arbi- tration is listened to) thereis a feeling here that the presence of the National Guard below will only foment more strife, and at the end of the campaign leave mat- ters in worse condition than they were at the beginning. The burning of the cannery at Cook’s fishing station, on the Washington side of the river, last night is responsible for the fresh agitation and for the call for the militia. That, however, is Washington’s trouble, and has nothing to do with the Oregon side of the trouble. Brigadier-General Beebe of the Oregon National Guard is absolutely non-com- mittal upon the Columbia River situation, neither denying nor affirming the report that the First Regiment had received marching orders. It is certain, though, that if the militia come into contact with the desperate fishermen there will be act- ual war and great foss of life. The fisher- men are well armed, and will resist the encroachment of all military regulars or militia. Portland Threatened by a Flood. PORTLAND, Or., June 9.—Willamette and Columbia rivers are still rising rap- idly. Nothing but the cool weather now prevailing in Willamette Valley prevents the water from flooding Front street. Should the weather turn warmer for two or three days 1t is safe to predict that the water will reach Third-street cel.ars. For the past forty-eight hours business men on Front street have heen moving all goods from the lower floors in anticipation of a flood. The river is now twenty-one feet above low tide, and some damage is being causea along the water front. — Called to a Redwood Pulpit.'] REDWOOD CITY, Caw., June 9.—The trustees and officials of the Congregational Church of this city have decided to extend acall to Rev.
