Large Barn Is Burned and a Wine-Cellar Barely Escapes. The Match Applied to a Heap of Rubb.sh Saturated With Coal O.l. SONOMA, Car., July 28.—An attempt was made by firebugs at an early hour this morning to destroy the town. At about 2 ¢’clock people were awakened by the loud and continuous ringing of the firebell, aud filames could be seen shoot- ing up just to the north of town. A large barn belonging to C. Aguillon was ablaze. Before the fire company could reach the place the building was doomed. s the firemen were returning up Sec- ond street, west of the Aguillon properiy, the wine-cellar belonging to J. E. Poppe was discovered to be on fire niso. As the flames had not yet got a good start they were easily extinguished. Tne Aguillon barn, with its contents, consisting of several tons of hay and many farming implemencs, was burned to the ground. The cause of Lhig fire could not be learnad, as all evidence had been destroyed by the flames, but on ex- amination the rear doors of the Pobbe wine-cellar were found to be saturated with coal oil. In starting the fire the incendiary had eathered a lot ‘ot old rub- bish and vlaced it against the doors of the building. ln the center of tiis he placed a bottle of coai oil, to which was attached a fuse. This is the third attempt in the past few months to set fire to the business por- tion of Sonoma, and the people are greatly excited. There is no clew to the incendi- aries. SRS FIRE AT >ANTA ¥MEZ.

PORT HURON, Micu., July 28 —Tke steamer Cambria, of the Windsor, Detroit and Soo line, which left Detroit on Tues- day with 100 passengers for Sault St . Marie, was wrecked this morning on Lake Huron, three miles north of Sarnia. The vessel ran into a drift of logs which haa broken away from a raft.

File Through Handcuffs and Get Away, but Are Soon in Custody Again. Proceeds of Their Recant Burglary Fecund in a Cache cn the Falr Ranch. SANTA ROSA, Can, July 28.—Last Thursday night the Sonoma depot was broken into, the safe blown open in cracks- man-like style, and a bag of money taken. To-night the robbers are sale in the County Jail and the whole community is sounding the praises of Sheriff Allen and his deputies for their very clever capture. When the Sheriff was summoned to Sonoma last Friday to investigate the robbery there was, apparently, no clew to the perpeirators, but Deputy Sheriff Charles Ohms had some well-grounded suspicions, and he was accordingly de- tailed to work on the case. He began by watching some men on tiue Fair ranch, near the Lounibus place—watching by night and sieeping by dav. At last he was certain of beingz upon the right track, and, with the assistance of Deputy Beatty, swooped down upon the two men under suspicion and soon had them handcuffed and in Glen Eilen. Both of the prisoners were young men of powerful build and unprepossessing countenances, and it was decided that 1t | would be test 10 lock tuem upin a room | without removing the handcuifs, and, to make assurance doubly sure, 1o leave them ouly the r undersairis. Ohbms and Beatty then visi‘ed the rob- bers’ camp, where they found some stolen goods, a fuil collection of “jimmie: sledge-hammers and otber burglarious tools, including six revolvers. The two | officers returned to convey their capiors to the county seat, and were deeply chagrined to find them both gone. One had concealed a file in his underclothing, and, with this useful little to0l, had suc- ceeded in freeing both himseif and his| pa! from the irksoms irons, and the two had lost no time in leaping from a two- story window. They were clad only 1n their undershirts. The escapes made goo:i time for their camp, only pursuing pariy to which thev surren- dered. The two men give the names of George Reagan and William Clemens, and claim San Francisco as their home. Oa their persons were found some of the siolen greenbacks which smelled strongly of the powder used to open the safe A BIG CONPANY'S PLEA, Says Its Franchise Should Be Considered With the Roll- ing Stock, Supervisors Asked to Reduce the Assessed Valuation by a Mil- lion Dollars. The Board -of Equalization, presided over by Mayor PLelan, held a long session vesterday afternoon iistening to the appli- cation of the Market-street Railway Com- pany to have its assessment reduced by $1,000,000. Assessor Siebe fixed the property for the corporation at $5,882,155, divided as fol- lows: Real estate and plant $1,168,700, street railroad system $2,133,285, personal prop- erty $80,170, franchise §2,500.000. The company was represented by E. Black Ryan, tax agent; J. E. Foulds, at- torney for the (orporation, and Henry H. Lynch, superintendent of construction. They stated that the franchise was part and parcel of the property of the company and should be considered in ccnnection with the rolling stock, tracks, etc. They asked the board to consider the good the system had done the City in bailding up outside districts ana to at least reduce the assessed value of the franchise, if it was to be considered outside of the road itself, to $1,500,000. Mayor Phelan remarked that he thought the franchise shoald be assessed at $7,500,000 rather than $2,500,000. An effort was made 10 ascertain the in- come and profits of the system, but the representatives were not able to give the figures. The railroad representatives stated that the old system had been bonded for $3,000 000 and stock issued to the extent of $5,000,000 and argued that these figures shonld not be considered. Simply the cash value of the tangible assets. Assessor Siebe stated tnat he thought the bonds and stocks siould be asgessed to the holders and not to the company.

To this end e will have the active co-opera- tion of Secretary Gage and will put in some of his vacation time on his plans.

Itis now proposed that an administra- tion plan shall be formulated during the summer and autumn and be submitted to Congre:s when it convenes in December. By the time Secretary Gage submits his first anoual report 1o Congress next De- cember he will, in all probability, have a plan formulated, which may be submitted reform. That partof the plan dealing! with the banking system will aim 1o pro- | vide a safe and elastic bank currency, and it may embrace some of the features of | the Canadian system, or what isknown as the *‘Baltimore plan,”” which was so gen- erally recommendad to bankers when it was devised. 1t is expected some pro- vision will also be made to pr:vent the use of greenbacks as an endless chain for the depletion of the treasury. - CIVIL SERVIC: AMENDMENTS.

A Story of lngratitude{ Told in a Complaint i for Divorce. ’ Home of a San Josean Wrecked by One Whom He Had Sheltered. Mrs. Jose Coelho’s Flight From the City With Her Husband’s Nearest of Kin. SAN JOSE, Cavn., July 28.—A story of the base ingratitude of a brother is told in the complaint filed to-day by Jose Coelho in a suit for divorce from Marie Joaquina Coelho on the ground of desertion. The couple were married at Pleasanton, Ala- meda County, in 1892, They were promi- nent members of the social set of the Portuguese colony there, and their wed- ding was a marked event. Shortly afler- ward they removed to thiscity and Ceelho went into business. Their life was a happy one until 1892. At that time Joaquin Coelho, a brother of the plaintiff, became ill, and was taken | mto the home he afterward wrecked. He | was sick for several months, and during his illness was carefully nursed by his sis- ter-in-law. The mutual feeling between | them ened into love, and on Septem- ber 8, 1893, Jose Coelho discovered suffi- cient to warrant his ordering his brother out of the nouse. The next day Mrs. Coelho left too. She and her broin: law lived together awhile in San Francisco. The last heard of them they were on their way to the Azores Islands About a year ago Coelho sought a divorce from his wife on the grounds of infidelity, but this was denied for lack of proof. There are no children and no community property, and Coelho will have no trouble in ireeing himself from SAN JOSE, CaL, July 28.—E. C. Gil- lette, an employe of the Journal of Com- merce in San Francisco, came to this city vesterday to call on his wife, from whom he has been separated for some time. He called to see Mrs. Gillette at 124 East San Salvador street last might. He was intox- icated at the time, and said he had come with the avowed intention of killing her. By skillful management Mrs. Gilleite paci- fied her *usband, and he agreed to return to San Francisco this morning. This promise Gillette failed to keep. He called at the house this morning, re- newed his threat and flourished a big re- volver. The police were called in and Gillette was taken to the station. Mrs. Gillette refused to prosecute her hus- band, and the police escorted him to the depot and saw him aboard a train for San Francisco. g Y Arraigned for Embezzloment.
