THE SA FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 20, 189 A e N e—————— FLAMES RAGE IN A PENITENTIARY Convicts Locked in Their Cells Made Mad by Fright. O:hers Assist in Fighting the Fire With a Hope of Gain- ing a Pardon. One of the Prisoners Supposed to Have Dropped a Lighted Match in Shavings. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., Dec. 19.—At about 11:45 to-night a fire was discoverea in the State clothing department of the State Penitentiary. It1s not known how the fire originated, but it is supposed that one of the convicts started it by placing some shavings under one of the boxes, and as he was marching out for supper he dropped a lighted match. At 1 o'clock this (Sunday) morning the fire was still making headway. Fifteen trusty convicts have been released from their cells for the purpose of aiding the city Fire Department, and all of them are working bard in the hope of being re- warded for their services by a pardon or a reduction of their sentences. In transferring the convicts from the burning building into No. 1 twoof the convicts were missed. They cannot easily escape, however, unless they should hap pen to get citizens’ clothes, which is not very likely. Nobody but persons connected with the prison and members of the press are per- mitted to enter the building gates. ‘The convicts that are in the cells are yell- ing and acting like madmen. The Star Clothing Company, which is located in the same building, next door to ‘the State clothing department, is alsa on fire, but the flames in both the State department snd Star Clothing Company will soon be under control. The loss will not be large. The penitentiary is situated about three miles from the city and contains about 2500 prisoners. L. L. Pace isthe warden. At 1:50 o’clock the firemen succeeded in getting the fire undercontrol and no more danger isanticipated. The prison officials have succeeded in quieting the prisoners and order again prevails. —_———— ST. PAUL'S LESTRUCTIVE FIRE. Many Business Houses Reduced to Ruins end the Loss Will Foot Up Half a Million Dollars. ST. PAUL, Mxx., Dec. 19.—A review of the scene of this morning’s fire discloses a situation far more serious financially than at first estimated. The Schutte block is totally in ruins, Its original cost was §110,000. The Northern Exchange Bank located in the same building, and every- thing outside the vaults was destroyed. It will be impossible to open the vaults for forty-eight hours. The Ryan annex, on the Seventh-street side, is also totally wrecked. Ithad no connection with the Ryan Hotel, a large court intervening, which saved the hotel. . The loss on the annex will reach $80,000, of which about two-thirds is cover:d by insurance. The loss to “The Fair,” a new notion and toy store, is $10,000. Insurance, $5000. Car- doza & Co., furnituré-dealers, loss $6000, no insurance; Twin City Cycling Club, no insurance; ciothing stock held by as- signe of a Chicago firm valued at $4000, not known whether insured, stock a total loss by water and smoke. A large number of tenants, chiefly pro- fessional men, lost their office belongings, instruments, etc., all of which were nunin- sured, adding at least $15,000 to the loss. A valuable collection of Minnesota his- torical archology specinens owned by J. G. Brewer, and gathered during the past thirty years and valued at $10,000, was totally destroyed. No insurance. This collection was ultimately intended for the State University ana cannot be replaced. The total loss approximates $500,000. ——— Furniture Warehouse Burned. ELIZABETHPORT, N.J., Dec. 19.—The furniture warehouse owned by McManus Bros. was burned this afternoon, together with other buildings on the block. Total loss amounted to $200,000, insurance par- tial. ARG v Fire Destroyed a Block. DULUTH, Mixx., Dec. 19.—Fire of un- known origin destroyed the Davis block last night. The loss was $50,000 and par- tially insured. SPAIN- 15 WRATHFUL. [Continued from First Page.| mittee, nobody need be alarmed, as there will be no war unless Spain chooses to de- clare one. It is very humiliating from the point of view of patriotic America, the paper adds, that the American market should go to smash at the extremely re- mote prospect of war with ‘a power com- monly described by courtesy as ‘second class.”” ED ENLIST. Colonel Harriman kia a Regiment of Foluntesrs in Kansas City. KANSAS CITY, Mo, Dec. 19.—Five hundred men bave enlisted in this city for the Cuban service in Colonel Harriman’s regiment, and between 300 and 400 letters have been received from points in Ne- braska, Kansas and Oklahoma asking for information concerning the proposea reg- iment’s departure to the scene of activity. The most of the writers ask that their names be placed upon the enlistment, and that when it is definitely decided that the regiment is to leave they be notified, and they will be on hand. The colonel has sent a letter to the Cuban Junta in New York asking that the Kansas City regi- ment be called the First Regiment, Cuban Volunteers. e STOPPED BY AN OFFIClAL. Though Citizens Could Not Hold a Me ing They Gave Their Views. 8T, LOUIS, Mp, Dec. 19.—The United Btates District Attorney won a bloodless battle fought by Cuban sympathizers here. As a result of this pointed interpre- tation of the neutrality laws, the monster mass-meeting scheduled for to-night at the Exposition building was declared off. Notwithstanding this a thousand men gathered about the buildinz this evening. and divided time with each other in de- nouncing the brutality of Spain and the course of the President and Cabinet. Chairman Sturgeon of the relief com- mittee admits that the District Attorney’s strict interpretation of the law has re- tarded relief work, but insists that work will continue, though in a less pronounced manner. He says: “I cannot conceive how anybody can construe a meeting held to voice our sympathy with an oppressed people struggling for independence and our abhorrence of cruel methods of their oppressors into a violation of freaty or neutrality laws. We are not enlisting men or organizing expeditions, but there is certainly nothing to prevent a man from expatriating himself if he sees fit. He can leave the country and go to Cba or anywhere else, and if he is not obliged to say beforeband what he is going to do when he gets there.” EX-GOVERNOK WA4ITE ENLISTS Wil Lead a Regiment to Fight for Cuba’s Freedom. DENVER, Corvo., Dec. 19.—Ex-Governor Waite has enlisted in the Cuban war and will lead to the gulf coast a well-equipved regiment, to ke known as the Colorado volunteers, The regiment will consist of the cream and youth of the State, who are eager to win laurels in these piping times of peace at ‘any cost. They go as the friends of liberty and will scorn to accept any pecuniary consideration for their services, but hope by their prowess in the field to earn distinction and honor. An enthusiastic meeting was held here to-night under a call issued by Colonel McAndrews, the organizer, and to the surprise of everybody ex-Governor Waite appeared as the chief orator of the occa- sion. He declared himself heartily in sympathy with the cause and said he would see the project through to a bloody finish if it was necessary. The volunteers will start for Cuba next Monday week, taking an overland route so that they will reach the gulf at a minimum of cost and save their railroad fares for the glorious cause of liberty. Each man is equipped with a Winchester and a revolver, and the army will sustain itself on the march by holding meetings and trusting to the patriotism of the people en route. PALYA REPLIE IO CANOVAS, Says the Cubans Fighting for Freedom Are a Fine Body of Men. NEW YORK, N. Y., Dec.19.—Delegate T. Estrada Palma of the Cuban Junta, after reading an interview with Prime Minister Canovas of Spain, which the New York Journal published to-day, and in which Canovas declarea that the indepen- dence of Cuba would mean a republic dominated by negroes, said: “Canovas may say what he pleases, but the Cubans have taken up arms with the definite idea of freedom and for the pur- pose of throwing off the Spanish yoke. When they did so they did it with the sole idea of making no arrangement with Spain, arnd except in case that Cuba would be granted its freedom there will be no compromise. “The statement of the Spanish Prime Minister that the revoluntionists are ne- groes is ridiculous in the extreme. He knows absolutely that the prisons in Cuba and in the penal colony are full of Cubans of the highest classes of society on the island, They consist of doctors, lawyers and military men who would more than grace any social class in the world. Fur- ther discussion of Senor Canovas’ state- ment is unnecessary. —_— NEBRASKA AlIDS CUBA, Citizens of Lincoin Spsak Boldly in Their Behalf. LINCOLN, NEsr., Dec. 19.—The Cuban mass-meeting to-night resolved itself into a preliminary gathering to arrange for a second meeting next Tuesday night. The attendance was not large, but the bold stand taken by the speakers in behalf of the insurgents indicated the sentiment of those -present. Ex-Mayor H. W. Hardy presided. A committee, comprising the leading ex-military men of the city, was appointed io draft resolutions and a memorial to Congress; also to request the Nebraska representative in Congress that by their influence and votes they support all measures in behall of Cuba. These resolutions and memorials will be re- ported at the Tuesday night meeting Governor Holcombe was requested to be present and is expected to preside. An urgent invitation to appear and speak was sent to Mr. Bryan, but it is thought he will be out of the city. S HERE'S THE VERY LATEST. Maceo and Twenty-Five Others Said to Hare Been Poisoned. KEY WEST, Fra., Dec. 19.—Private ad- vices state that it has been discovered that Maceo, Young Gomez and twenty-five others, among them five Americans, were poisoned by the treachery of Dr. Zertucha, planned by Ahumada and Cirujada. Itis also reported that Perico Delzado entered Bejucal on the 10th inst., with 4000 men. e Will ¥ight for Cuba. SANTA BARBARA, Car., Dec. 19.—A militury company is being organized here to fight for Cuba, and almost every ar- rangement is now perfected. The moment the independence of Cuba is recognized by the United States, a Santa Barbara company will be spinning toward the gulf to join the Cuban forces. Strange to sav, many direct descendants of inhabit- ants of Sunny Spain are enrolled under the Cuban banner. FATHER DENT’S CELEBRATED CASE. Compromises His Damage Suit Against Friars of St. Francis and Charge of Per- Jjury Against Him Is Dropped. BROOKLYN, N. Y., Dec. 19.—A sensa- tional conclusion was arrived atin the suit of Father Dent agaiust the Friars Minor Order of 8t. Francis before Justice Os- born in the Supreme Court, special term, to-day. Father Dent sued the order for $50,000 and out of that suit developed a charge of perjury against the priest upon which charge he was indicted. Yesterday, at the request of Father Dent’s attorney, the District Attorney moved to dismiss that indictment, and Father Dent consented to the withdrawal of his suit upon the payment of $10.000 by the oraer. This money was paid to the priest to- day. The damage suit was instituted three years ago and the trial begun in the Supreme Court of this county. Colonel George Bliss represented the order and Father Dent appeared as his own lawyer, On the sixth day of the trisl Father Dent presented a rescript from Rome. Mr. Bliss declared in an affidavit that he was taken by surprise, and he asked for the withdrawal of a juror. The motion was granted, but he had to pay Father Dent the sum of $250. The trial was then suspended to_enable Mr. Bliss to get tes- ttmony from Rome to meet Father Dent’s rescript. Two ecclesiastical aignitaries came from Rome to prove that Father Dent’s rescript was a forgery. They :Jppu d before the Kings County Grand Jury, and an indict- ment charging Father Dent with perjury was found on QOctober 31, 1893, HEDGES OFFICER KILLS A MEXICAN Desperado Resists Arrest and Is Shot to Death. Constable Smarr Uses His Pistol to Keep Peace in the Camp. Fifth Violent Death Within Two Months at the Southern “ Diggings.” SAN DIEGO, Car., Dec. 19.—Hedges “boneyard,” as the denizens of the little minin- camp term it, is growing. Within the past two months five violent deaths have added five mounds of earth to the primitive cemetery. The last killing oc- curred yesterday, when Gregorio Gonzales, a desperado, met death at the hands of Constable Smarr. Hedges is the center of operations of the Golden Cross Mining Company. The rich ledges and the remoteness of the camp attract all kinds of desperadoes and es- pecially those who infest the border and take advantage of the boundary line to escape into one country for crimes com- mitted in the other. Of this class was Gonzales, who will trouble the miners no more. Gonzales, who is said to have beena murderer and was driven out of the State of Sonora by the authoritisy, was employed by Receiver W. W. Stewart in the Golden Cross mines. He livea with a Mexican girl, Pancha Trigueno, whose good looks attracted the miners and caused more than one fight for her smiles. Another Mexican, Timoteo Carrilio, was in love with the senorita, and the two men quar- reled. Carrillo lay in wait for Gonzales one night two weeks ago and neariy suc- ceeded in killing him. Gonzales swore he would kill Carrillo on sight, ana it was tne meeting of these two that led to the killing of Gonzales by the peace officer. Constable Smarr learned of the trouble, warned Gonzales to keep the peace and notified bim that he would enforce the law. Gonzales paid no attention to the warning and in a saloon at Hedges bran- dished a revolver and declared his inten- tion of starting out after Carrillo and kill- ing him wherever found. Constable Smarr ‘tried to arrest Gonzales and the latter resistea. A flourish of revolvers tollowed. The American was too quick for Gonzales. A Coroner’'s jury to-day rendered a verdict exonerating Smarr on tue ground of self-defense, g SLANKARD IS AFTER DUNHAM. The Fearless Arizona Sheriff Goes From Phenix in Quest of the Murderer. SAN DIEGO, Car., Dec.19.—There are plenty of signs which show that Marshal Gard has not given up the search for Mur- derer Dunham in S8an Diego County or be- low the line. He is now working, it is said, to secure the proper papers entitling him to enter Mexican territory, and in the meanume has several other strings out, all pointing to a plan to locate and cap- ture Dunbam at his supposed hiding place near the Mexican line. A search is about to be made for Dun- ham by Deputy Sheriff Charles Slankard of Maricopa County, Arizona. Slankard isanold friend of Marshal Gard and has worked with him in many an important Government case when Gard was United States Marshal. Slankard is as fearless as they are made in Arizona, where fearless men are the rule. He is a tall, lean, desert- browned fellow, with keen eyes and a record for daring that is nos stained, like many others, by stories of dishonor or fraud. Just before Murshal Gard appeared in San Diego on his way to hunt for Dunham Deputy Sheriff Slankard in Pheenix began to display a sudden longing to discoverthe Pegleg mine, said to have existed on the desert in San Diego County. BSiankard is a practical man, but he deglared that he had received a clew to the mine that would lead him to itand make bim a millionaire. His acute attack of lost-mine fever sur- prised all his friends, but as he isinte- rested more or less in mining they attrib- uted it to a prospector’s aliuring tale and advised Slankard to have notuing to do with it. The Deputy Sheriff insisted that there was something in it and made prep- arations to leave Pheenix with a pack out- fit in search of the Pegleg. The most significant thing in connec- tion with Slankard’s trip was his remark to several friends that s tip led him to- ward the Mexican line in S8an Diego Coun- ty, and not toward the Riverside County line, where the Pegleg is supposed, ac- cording to tradition, to hide its gleaming veins. BSlankard declared that the mine lay right on the boundary line, or just be- low it, and he said be could find it without any trouble at all. Ii he had come straight across in the direction he indicatea he would have encountered Marshal Gara and his party. ~This circumstance points to Murderer Dunham as the Pegleg that Slunkard is after. He is wasting less time hunting mythical gold mines than his Pheenix friends believe. Sheriff Lyndon, when he was nere, dropped theremark that one of his clews pointing toward Dunbam’s presence in ihis section was from a prospector who had come down the Colorado River. He knew Dunham, and notitied the Sheriff that Dunham had come down the river part way with him, and then struck west along the Mexican line. This trail, with- out doubt, is the one now being followed by Deputy Sheriff Stankara. It is not known Lere just when Slankard started, but he was expected at Yuma on Thars- day. Slankard knows every foot of the desert, havinz been formerly a guide be- tween San Diego and Yuma.- He carried mail for several years across the dreary waste and also drove a stage, 1f Dunham has chosen the desert fora hiding-place, Slankard 1s as good a man as Gurd could engage to find the fugitive and gather him in el DEATH OF CAPTAIN LEMON. The Publisher of the National Tribune Succumbs to lliness at Coro- . hado SAN DIEGO, Car., Dec. 19.—The mem- bers of the G. A. R. in this city are taking active steps in doing honor to the late Captain George E. Lemon of Washington, D. C., who died at Coronado last evening. To-night four old comrades—D. L. Kret- singer, J. V. Hicks, Captain R. H. Shel- don and Captain T. B. Hartzell—are de- tailed to sit up with the body, and otker members of the two posts here are prepar- ing to start the body on its long journey to Washington for interment. The mem- bers of Heintzelman Post No. 133 have been ordered to meet at headquarters to- morrow morning at 7:30 ¢’clock, to.march in a body to the Santa Fe depot, whither it will be conveyed direct from Coronado. At the depot the old soldiers will pay their respects to the deparied veteran. The body will be taken to Los Angeles, where a special car ie awaiting it. Thence it will be sent over the Sunset Route to ‘Washington, in care of Captain Lemon’s private secretary and a member of the family. Captain Lemon came to San Diego sey- eral weeks ago for the benefit of his health, whicg had become impaired through too close attention to business as publisher of the National Tribune and at- tending to pension matters. He came in a private car, accompanied by his family and secretary. They found very pleasant quarters at Coronado, where Captain Lemon rallied for a few days, but his disease had secured too strong a hold and after a gallant struzele he succumbed. The family received scores of telegrams of condolence to-day from old veterans in all parts of the Union. Captain Lemon became widely known through bis pen- sion business and as publisher of the soldiers’ paper at the National capital, and this, added to his brilliant record in the war, made many friends for him in all parts of the country. He was 55 years of age, having come out of the war as a cap- tain at 26 years of age. —_—— WITHOUT WATER ON THE DESERT Lower California Tax Coilector and His Guards Aimost Overcome by Thirst. SAN DIEGO, CaL, Dec. 19.—A little party reached Tia Juana yesterday after an experience on the desert that its mem- bers will never forget. Davia Goldbaum, Collector of Taxes for the Lower Califor- nia Government, and three rurales com- posed the party. Goldbaum has just returned from Yuma and hasa lot of silver money, which is carried on a mule. Itis the proceeds of two months’ collection among the ranch- ers, miners and cowmen of the peninsula bordering the desert. The three rurales are his guard to prevent robbery by stray cuttle-thieves or smugglers who infest the desert below the line. After reaching Yuma and taxing the Alogdones ranchers, Goldbaum struck back across the deseri toward La Bajada, the pass south of the Cocopah Mountains, and marking the western edge of the desert stretching between the Cocopah and Painted Mountains. The cistance across is eighty miles, broken by a small waterless range of mountains, with stretches of sand on either side. The supply of water ran short before reaching a water-hole they were making for, but they hurried for- ward, suffering somewhat, and reached the oasis, There they found no water, the heat of the intervening weeks having dried it up. They were in an appalling position and had nothing to do but strike out west- | ward, sixty miles across the burning | sand. One of the rurales—Sotomayor—rode a swift horse, and he volunteered w0 go ahead as fast as possible and find water, returning with it if he found it. He struck out, while the others followed slowly with their mules. They suffereu intensely and once or twice were on the point of hiding their treasure 2t the foot of a tree or other land- mark and hurrying on without it. Fortunately Sotomayor, scouring the desert as he rode, saw a dust cioud a long | distance to the north and making for it | discovered a party of prospectors, who gave him a couple of gallons.of water. | He took some and gave a little to his | horse, and then hurried back. He found Goldbaum in what was believed to bea | dying condition, and the two rurales not much better. All guickly revived, however, when | they were given water. The party | then managed to get across the Los Picachos, where they rested for three days before starting out for Tia Juana, DREFEATED 1HE, PALEFACES. Indians of the Carlisle School Beat the Wisconsins at Footbull CHICAGO, Irn, Dec. 19.—The first great game of football between a Western colleze and an eleven of full-blooded Indians was played to-night at the Coli- seum under eleciric light between the University of Wisconsin and the ecrack team from the Carlisle (Pa.) Indian Echool, The palefaces were fairly and easily van- quished by the wiry red men by a score of 18 to 8. The players were brought here by the Press Club of Chicago to raise funds, and 7000 people witnessed the novel and exciting contest, which lasted nearly three hours. The sympathies of the crowd were largely with the Indians. The Indians’ | tackling, running, punting, interference and general mass play was far superior to that of their opponents. Metoxen at full- back; Captain gemus Pierce, right guard; Jimson and McFarland were the brilliant players for Carlisle. The Wisconsins' heavy work and run- ning was done_chiefly by Sheldon, Peal, Karel and Richards.” Peal was laid out with a badly injured leg in the second half and his place was taken by O’Dea, who was to have played fullback, but had a bad arm. . Metoxen scored two touchdowns, Jim- son one and Captain Pierce kicked all the goals for them. The Wisconsing’ scores were made by Sheldon and Pyre, Captain Richards failing to kick either goal from their touchdowns. Gould of Amberst was referee and there was much dis:atisfaction over his work in the first half. Delays were frcquent. ————— FRESNO BICYCLE RACES, Snecessful Meeting Upens the Wheelmen’s Three-Lap Track. FRESNO, Caw, Dec. 19.—The new three- lap bicycle track, called the Tachydrome, just north of the city, was opened this afternoon with a highly successful race meeting. The attendance was fairly large. The time was very slow, owing partially to the sticky condition of the track in some places. Several professionals from San FKrancisco, among them the best riders on the coast, took part. The one mila scratch for professionals was won by C. 8. Wells in 2:26 1-5. D. E. Whitman was second. The ama- teur one-mile scratch was won by Bert Starkweather in 3:38 1-5, with E. 0. Harris second. H. Siater of Phenix won the two-mile handicap for professionals in 6:033-5 and F. M. Byrne was second. In the two-mile handicap of the ama- teurs Perry Simpson was the victor and E. O. Harris was second. Time, 5:55 3-5. Tho riders made no efforts for time, but contented themselves with some exciting finishes. g Hanley§Deseats Gilmore. TORONTO. Ost., Dec. 19.—Nearly 2000 people were at the Princess Theater to- | night to witness the twenty round contest betweer the ex-champion lightweight, Harry Gilmore of Chicago, and Jack Hanley of Philadelphia. Hanley was too strong anda 100 quick for Gilmore and in the fourth m“mil started in to finish the fight. He poured in lefts on Gilmore’s face and the Chicago man was all bat out when the pell rang. When the men got up again the referee stopped the fight and gave the decision to Hanley. \ T e Won by Los An, LOS ANGELES, Cax., Dec. 19.—The Los Angeles Athietic Club football team this afternoon defeatea the San Diego feam by a score of 36 to 10.

CHICAGO, Irr., Dec.’ 19.—Major Mec- Kinley returned from his visit to Evans- ton this morning and spent most of the day at the home of his wife’s cousin, Cap- tain MacWilliams. He arrived about 10:30 o'clock and had soon numerous callers. Marshall Field, Archbishop Ire- land and General Wesley Merritt, U. 8. A., with his staff, were the chiei callers, none of them remaining long to talk with the President-elect. During the afternoon a large number of college students called to pay their respects. Before the major left Evafiston he had a conference at the home of his host, Mr. Dawes, with F. J. W. Day of Canton, whose name is most frequently mentioned with the office of Attorney-Genera.. In the evening Major McKinley accepted an invitation to dine at the home of Ferd W. Peck, the dinner being a small and in- formal affair. Mrs. McKinley remained at the MacWilliams home. Major and Mrs. McKinley will attend service to-morrow morning at the Sixth Presbyterian Church. He did not give much attention to politics during the day and it is plainly his desire to avoid work of that kind as much as possible during his stay bere. Mrs. McKinley continues to improve in health. Trere was considerable gossip to-day concerning Charles G. Dawes as a Cabinet nossibility, but the general opinion among Major McKinley’s friends nere is that I1li- nois will not be represented in the Cab'nat, PRUSPECT OF AMOTHER wAR, Nicaragua Preparing for @ Confiict With Colombia. 4 MOBILE, Ara.,Dec. 19.—The Norwegian steamship Jarl, which arrived pere this mormng from Biuefields, Nicaragua, brings news of active preparations which are being made in Nicaragua looking to & war with Colombia. ¥ There have been no open hostilities, but | | the Nicaraguan Government has a pa_trol | boat going up and down the Rama }‘hver conseripting evervbody as soldiers.
