Figel maintained the greatest noncha- lance throughou: the trying ordeal of being led into the cell and having the key turned on him. His only complaint was that the warrants should havs been issued €0 late in the day, as this made it some- wuat iaconvenient to get the bonds into shape for his release, On finding h'mseli once more a free man Figel at once proc-eded to the house of lis father-in-law, where his wife was awaiting him. It was stated by Judge Murphy that further charges would be preseated to- day, including some for forgery. The | arraignment of the accused will 1ake place this morning before Judge Campbell. J. A. Spinetti will assist Judge Murphy in the prosecution in the Police Court, as the representative of the City. There was some excitement yesterda when it was rumored that Jerry Toohey, a well-known special officer of some years 2go and at one time a witness 1n the Cur- tis case, bad been making statements th; he saw the murder of Hoffman. The police and reporters investigated Mr. Toohey’s staiements and concluded that they were not avaiiable in the case. | Mr. Toohey bears the reputation of being a well-meaning man. He says he saw the murder of Ware, the murder of Officer Grant and the killing of Hoffman. He was for some time ill, and says he is being pursued by unrelenting enemies; that va- rious policemen surrounded his house last night to destroy it and him; that he is an oid officer and has the power 1o detect crimes of all kinds where others fail. He armed himself last night and savs he teie- vhoned the Chief of Police that he would kiil any officer who should try to handi- cap him in his effiris to aid the widow of Hoffmen.

BOSTON, Mass, June 28.—With songs and cheers, with the flattering of hun- dreds of flags and handkerchiels, and with many a hasty word ot good-by, the first | train containing the delegates to the au- nual Christian Endeavor convention to be | | neld at San Francisco rolled out of the | Boston and Albany station at 2:10 o’clock | this afternoon. It was an enthusiastic | | | crowd that gathered to see the delegates off. Long before the scheduled time for leaving the station began to take on an unusual appearance. Everybody coull see ‘that something out of the ordinary was -going on. About 2 o’clock the en- trance to the trainhouse became so crowded that it was with difficulty that the delegates coula force a passage. There | were hasty greetings, a few words of part- ing, and then they hurried on to find | their respective positions in the various | cars. Many of the delegates wore little rold badges, and the regulation Christian Endeavor pin was seen on every hand. | | In the first section there were eight cars stretching far out of the trainhouse. At| | the end of each car Christian Endeavor | lags were hung, which added their bright- | ness to tne picturesqueness of the scene. Along the platform there were scattered litle groups of young men and wouien from the Boston union. Everv now and then they broke into a song that echoed through the great building and lightened | the hearts of tuose about to leave on their | trip across the continent About 2 o’clock President Francis Clark, accompanied by Mrs. Clark, came through the crowd and was warmly greet- | ed on every band. He went at once to | one of the forward cars. Secretary Baer | was not far behind. President Clark was| | the last to board the train, just as it start- {ed. On every step a young Endeavorer | stood waving a banner, and a cheer went | up as the train moved out of the station. | There were nearly as many present to say | good-by as the rewere delegates to take the | train, An hour later another section of the | | train left the Boston and Albany station | with an equal number of cars. Treasurer Shaw went on this section. In the two | trains there were more than 900 people. | Fennsylvania’s Delegation.

DEADWOOD, §. D., Jane 28.—At noon | to-day Belle Fourche was the scene of an | road agents’ attack on the Bank | of Beile Fourche. Four masked robvers looted the place of $10,000 in spite of the presence of four bank patrons and three oflicials of the ban. Entering the bank with revolvers drawn they orderea the customers present and the bank officials to ho'd up their hands. A little nesitancy on the part of Cashier Marble drew a suot from the gun of one | of the roobers, waich clipped off a large | portion of the cashier's rigut ear and eu- | forced compliance with the command. The safe d counters were relieved of the cash they contained, &ni the robbers, mounting their horses, which bad been conveniently stationed mear, rode away. An alarm was immediately given and in a.few momentsa well mounted and armed posse was in pursuitof the bandits. With in a few miles of town the posse came up with the fugitives and a running fight ensued, which resuited in one of the rob- bets throwing up his hands and surren- flight, but are now being ly pursued and have very few chances | ofescaping. The day was fa ble tor a | raid on the bank, as the weather was such | that it kept the town people off the | streets and the rok had lLttle opposi- | tion and had quite a start before thealarm | could be given | Just before noon the bandits entered the north. They passed toward the bank at a brisk trot. There were but three horses, oue of the mounts clo: sers being double, When within a block of | the bank they dashed forward oriskly, | dismounted at thedoor and, as the fourth | man held the horses, the other thres rushed into tte plac their guns presented. They worked coolly but rap 1dly, laughing and joking with their tem- porary prisone When they were surprised in a ravine a few miles to the nortn they were dividing their booty, but showed tight for several miautes until the posse brought their rifles into play, when the bandits de- camped. The dismounted man attempted to hide, but when aiscovered threw up his bands without a show of fight. Though all the men were plentifully supplied with revolvers, none of them carried nifles. . It is believed they had their Winchesters den further north in the mountains for which they are making. They know they | cannot stand off a posse that is armed | with Winchesters uniess they have some- thing better than their pistols to use. The abse f the fou is a mystery, s haidly probable that the men would attempt to rob a bark, with pursuit cer- inless all were mounted. The as tain, pris- | oner refuses to open his mouth on the subject. Some talk of Iynching has been indulged in, but, as no one was kil'ed, they will probably let the law take its course. Bank-robbery in this State is a cavital offense. The men.in the bank when the robbery occurred were armed, but were unable to get their guns out without shots from the bandits, 1 to risk in the first suflering nd they ware not All the men are stranger REFUSE T0 TRY SPALDING.

Conirect Signcd ior Sending It From Santa , Ana Conyon 10 Los Argeles eni Pasadena. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 28.—A con- tract for the transmission of electricity by vower derived from the river running through Santa Ana Canyon to Los Angeles and Pasadens has just been concluded be- tween the Southern Cahifornia Power Company and the General Electric Com- vany-of Schenectady, N. Y. The amount of power to be transmitted at first is 4000 borsepower. The station is to be located in the Santa Ana Canyon, twelve miles from Redlands. The water will be taken from the river through tbe canal flume and tunnel alongside of the canvon toa point where it will be led through a pipe 2200 feet long, giving what isequivalent to a vertical fall in the water of 750 feet. At the botiom the water will shoot from the nozzies against bucket wheels, which will | be on the same shaits as the electricdy- namos, This will be the longest com- mercial electric power transmission ever underiaken. At present the longest is that by which the power of Ogden Canyon is transmitted to Sait Luke City. The Los transmission will te, roughly speaking, twice the distance and three mes the longest aistance vet tried with the power of Niagara, which so far has only been transmitted to Buffalo. GOTHAM'S GREAT MURDER MYSTERY Meager Clews Upon Which the Detectives Have to Work. Portions of the Victim’s Body Boiled in Order to Pre- vent ldentification. Those Who Committed the Atro- cious Crime Were Eviden‘ly Sklilled in Surgery. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 28.—The mur- der of the man, part of whose body was found in ¥ast River Saturday and an- o her part near Washington bridgs Sun- day with the head, part of the breast and legs still missing, presents to the police a mystery asdifficult to unravel as any in the history of crime in New York. Be- sides portions of the body tnere is a broken finger nail and a strip of oil cloth for the detectives to work on. The nail is similar to that on the hands of hundreas of men, and the strip of cil cloth is a kind soid in every dry-goods store in the city. These are absolutely the only clews and the nnding of a needle in a haystack seems a comparatively easy runuing down of unknown murderers ot unidentified man with such slight clews. As if frightful mutilation was not enough fresh horror was added to the case to-duy by the discovery that at least a part of the body had been vplaced in boiling water, probably with the 1dea of destroying it, and that fact suggested the equally norri- probability that the missing head had been similarly treated in order to make identification impossible. Sunday morning Deputy Coroner O’ Han- lon made a careful examination of the body, and said it was almost certain the man had not been dead more than twenty- four hours. This would make the killing not earlier than 11 o'clock Saturday, which was only a few hours before the first part of the body was discovered in the water. There was a stab wound through the heart. The autopsy showed conclusively that this stab bad killed the man. This was proved by the condition of the lungs. If he had died slowly there would have been no air there. The deputy Coroner said his examination convinced him the man was a Hebrew. His examination of the thumbs, he said, made him think the man had been employed at some work that required the use of a needle. But miore interesting than all was the doctor's statement that the per<on who had done t e cutting was well versed in anatomy and had more than ordinary intelligence. Superintendent Murphy of Bellevae Hospital, who was present st the autopsy, said: *The person who did t knew a great deal more about anatomy than an ordinary medical coliege stu- dent.” To this the deputy Coroner added: *“This is a case of cold-blooded murder. It can be nothing e'se. The wound in the heart is what caused death. He wasa sirong muan physically, and healthy in every part. He weighed between 160 and 170 pounds in life, and the autopsy has shown absolutely nothing that would cause death except this wound. The au- topsy also snowed that a piece of flesh cat out of the breast, which likely contained some mark that might have led to identification, was removed after the body had been cut in two. Icould not have done the thing myself, used as I am to performing autopsies, in less than three-quarters of an hour.” o S et 1INPLATE ».LLs 10 CLOSE.

HIDES NO LONGER FREE FROM CUTY For Twenty-Five Years They Have Been Exempt. Vigorous Protests of Demo- cratic Senators Are of No Avail. Smith Declares That On'y the Big American Beef Trust will Be Protected. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 28.—The Senate spent nearly six hours to-day in picking up and disposing of some para- Rrapas of the tariff bill which had gone over without action when tered. The most importan: was that re- lating to hides. Tie House had left hides on the free |ist, where they have been for the last twenty-five vears, but the Senate Finance Committee had reported un amendment putting them on the dutiabie list at a rate of 1}{ cents a pound, with provision for a drawback on exported | ieather made from imported hides. A modification of that amendment was offered to-day by Allison, maging the duty 20 per cent ad valorem and omitting the drawback provision, which was discussed for three hours and finally agreed t0—37 to 20. Various paragraphs relating to leather .loves were agreed to, and a sub- stitute for the paragraph on live catle | was adopted. The bill was then taken up at para- graph 109 (stained or painted glass win- dows and mirrors). The committee amendments were adopted, being mere verbal changes in the House bill. making the duty on hooks and eyes i}4 cents & pound and 15 per cent ad valorem. | Paragraphs 179 and 180 (lead ore and lead pipe in pigs) went over temporarily. Tne leather paragraphs were then taken up and Allison modifi:a the committee amendment by making it read: *‘Hides of cattle, raw or uncured, whether dry, salted or pickled, 20 per cent ad valorem.” The | provision as to drawbacks was struck out. Smith stated that at the presant rate on | hides, 11 cents a pound, the proposed ad | valorem rate would b> higher than the | pound rate. He asked Allison whether a | duty was to put on goat skins, and when the guestion was answered in the negat.ve he said it was hardly fair to allow in free of duty goat skins that did come in com- petition with an American product and jut atax of $2on salted hides that did not. The proposed duty on hides, he said, was unnecessary and unfair, as it did not protect anybody except the great Amer-| ican beef trust. Smith made a diversion to the Cuban | to the belligerency | resolution passed by a two-thirds vote of | question—referring the Senate—saving it had been ‘'sent over to the catafalque to belaid away in a tomb by the Repubiican House at the dictation of the Republican Speaker and with the intimation that it was done at the dicta- | tion of a Republican President.” Vest spoke in favor of iree hides, al- though he represented a large cattle- producing State of the Union. In that connection Vest mude use of the protest of Blaine to McKinley, when the McKin ley bili was under consideration, aguinst | taking hides off the iree list. He read quotations irom the report of a Senate commitiee_on the mieat quesiion five years to show that thé removal of the | tariff on hides in 1873 did not cause a de- line in the price of American hides, be- cause it was fifleen years afterward when | the decline began. He said the exports | if leather and leather manutactures had | incr-ased since 1872, when Lides were put | on the free list, tfrom $3,000,000 to $96,000,- | Foreign hides did not, he said, come 1nto competition with American hides. “Why not?’ Allen asked. “Because they produce a aifferent sort of leather,” Vest replied, *and are usea for different purposes. A duty on hides would not increase by a single cent the price paid for cattle in the West."” Does the Seuator claim,” Gear asked, | hat the Big Four absolutely control the price of cattle ?” “Ido,’”” Vest replied, “‘and you will find that the price of hides is one t.ing when Armour, Swift and Hammoud & Co. un- aertake 1o sell their hides and very differ- ent when they come to buy cattle.” Hoar made a long statement pointing out the difficulty of controliing operations of great trusts or a-gregations of capital. He said the Juaiciary Committee was giv- ing serious consideration to the question and he hoped to find a constitutional method to @proot the great evii. “If tis Sugar Refiners’ Associution,” Hoar went on, “'does nothing illegal that ‘lowers or raises prices, but simply crushes out com petitors by economies in doing its busi. ness or by its great wealth, I dou't see exactly how to hitit. A Stale may do so by limiting the amount of capital which a corperation may have.” Lindsay suggested Sherman’s remedy of throwing the American market open to foreigners whenever a trade is con- trolied by trusts. “The difticulty about that is,” Hoar re- plied, **that it is desirable to have revenue from refined sugar, and it is also desirable that the business of refining sugar shall be prosecuted in this country; oiherwise we should be at the mercy ol the foreign which often is & much worse trust than the domestic sugar trust. Because a fox or a jackal preys upon our gardens or crops we ought not to turn the gardens and crops over to a. foreign wolt or lion, In repiving Allen declaimed against trusis. The country, be said, was rotien with them. Hundreds of trusts to-day controlled all the siaple products of the country, and Congress, the executive and the judiciary were powerless to protect the people. After three hours’ discussion the com- mitt-e ameadment making the duty on hides 20 per cent ad valorem was agreed to—37 to 20. Butier and Aillen (Pop.), Heitfeld and Rawlins (D.) and Teller (Sil.) voted with the Republicans. Allison offered a substitute for the com- mittee ameniment o paragraph 427, re- lating to band or belting ieather. ‘White spoke of it as *‘mysteriously con- cocted” and inquired whether it increased rates as providea in the Senate amend- ment. Allison admitted that it did increase rates somewhat. The substutute was agreed to. ‘An amendment to paragraph 424 was agreed to. It imvoses an additional duty of §1 per dozen on gloves when lined, 25 ¢ cents per duzen on pique or prix seam gloves and on gioves stitched or em- broidered, with a reduction of 25 cents a dozen when there are no wrist-fasteners. Paragraph 435, relating to ‘“glove trunks,” was acreed to as in the House bill. This ciosed the leather paragraphs. Paragraph 215, relating to cattle, was then taken un and a snbstitute agreed to making the duty on cattle less than one ear old §2 a head; all other cattle, if vaiued at not more tha' $14, $350 a heaa; first_encoun- | } A new paragraph (17814) was inserted, |J i Valorem; valued at more that $25, 30 per | cent. The next of the laid-over paragraphs (118), relating to iron ore, was agreed to, alter being modified s0 as to read: “Iron ore, including manganiferous iron ore, also aross, residuum from burnt pyrites, 4Ucentsa ton; manganese ore, $1a ton: | basic slag, ground or unground, $1 a ton.’? | Paragraph 142 (card clothing) was | agreed to asin tae House bill, Paragraph 137 (iron or steel bars) was retained as in the House bill, Paragraph 164 (crosscut saws) was modi- fied by the insertion of the clause, “Steel bands, finished or unfinished, 10 cents a | pound and 20 per cent aa valorem,” and the duty was made 30 instead of 40 per cent ad valorem. Paragraph 169 (alumirum) was changed s0as to make the rate on aluminum in crude 7 cents 8 pound, and aluminum in plates, sheety, bars and rods 12 cents, Parzeraph 170 (wares of aluminum) was stricken out.

July 8 Set Apart for Eulogies of the Late W. 5. Holman. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 28 —Im- mediately after the approval of the House journal to-day Dingley, remarking that he was not aware that there were any mat- ters requiring the attention of the House, moved to adjourn. While the Speaker was putting the question Bailey made a vigorous protest, saying there were mat- ters requiring consideration. This did not interrupt the Speaker, however, and upon arising vote the motion was defeated—85 10 86. The announcement was received with a s2lvo of bandclavping on the Dem- ocratic side. On a rolicall, however, Dingley's motion was adopted—ayes 97, noes 83, and the House, at 12:45 o’clock, adjourned until Thursday. Before the announcement of the vote a resoiution was adopted setting apart Thursday, July 8, for paying a tribute to the memory of the late William 8. Hol- man of Indiana. Representative King of Utah offered a int resolution for the annexation of Ha- wali upon the treaty already sent to the Senate. The Speaker to-day announced that he expected to submit a list of committees beiore the present session closed. It is understood that the details .were practi- cally completed some time ago, so that had an emergency arisen organization uld have been perfected without delay. The naming of the committees just before recess will enabie the members to study various measures ulready introauced and offered by tone several commiitees, so that there may be little delay when Congress reconvenes. About 4000 bills have already been in- troduced in the House, the most import- | ant being those relating to the currency question. In this connection it is'said in bigh official circles the administration is satisfied that the commission idea is un- popuiar in Congress and that a message recommending legislation to authorize the appointment of one might not be acted upon affirmatively. It is probable instead that during the.recess.a scheme will be devised by Gage and submitied to Congress next winter. Chairman Grosvenor of the Republican caucus has requested all Repabiican mem- bers of the House to be in their seats next | Monday. Tuis action is in anticipation | of thepassage of thetarsff bill by the Senate during the present wesk.

WASHINGTON, D.

Mr. Crumpacker said to THE CALL cor- respondent to-day: *l am an anti-annexa- ifonist.

The Change Browgnt About by Congres- sional Opposition. VALPARAISO, Cuive Juie 28.—A new Liberal Cabinet has been formed here. The Antunez Cabinet resigned about a week ago. It also was a liberal Cabinet and was forme | last November, but owing to the opposition of ihe Congress elected last March Senor Antunez has been un- able to carry out many of the leading fea- tures of his programme, and. the resigna- tion had been expected for some months. The retiring Cabinet consisied of Senor Carlos Aptunez, Premier and Minister of the Interior; Senor Moria Vicuna, Minis- ter of Foreign Affairs; Senor Justiniano Sotomayor, Minister of Finance; Senor Claro Solar, Min:ster of Justi¢e; General Amunategul Livera, Minister of War; Senor Fernandez Alvano, Minister of Pub- lic Works. g GIGANTIC SiKIKE IN PARIS, Twenty Thousand Men of the Building dradas to Stop Werk. PARIS, FrANCE. June 28.—At a meeting of the delegates of the building trades it was resolved to call a strike of 20,000 men immediately. The men are greatly dis- satisfied with their past treatment and have been threatening to take the present action for some time past. It is believed that the men will finally win the battle, as they seem to have made complete plans for a successful strike. This is a season of the year when there is considerable building ‘going on and the contractors wouid rather yield to the men than ose the profits which they are sure of if the work were not stopped. Up to-this poin: the empioyers have done little or nothing toward conciliating the men. It is probable that some one may be called up to arbitrate the matter. e Four Thourand Founds for a Bible.
