2 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, AUGUST 27, 1897. A G SRR e s e B S e e T e el B e e e e s e night since Tuesday, but he feared his force would be inadequate to repel the ex- pected attack. General James, by tele- graph, ordered out the Colusa company, and as he wasinformed that several mem- bers of the Colusa company were related to Miss Poirior and might possibly sympa- thize with the lynchers, he also ordered out Company D of Marysville. At midnight the Sheriff bad the jail surrounded by a force of National Guards- men and depu iently strong to resist any atiempt which -might be made to wrest the prisoner from his custody. The first demonstration was made by the would-be lynchers on Wednes- day mnight. At dusk a mnumber of strangers were seen standing around the outskirts of town, and as the evening wore on the number increased and people from all paris of the county were recognized. There were more than thirty in one band that came in together from the western part of the county, and from some of them it was learned that runners had been out all day notilying them of the intended lynching. At1lo'clock most of the men were out ight, and Sheriff Jones, thinking that \ey might be organizing for an attack, swore in several more good Aeputies and armed each with a Winchester repeating 1ifle. The crowd, which had so mysterie ously disappeared, was soon lccated at the firehouse, where the lynching project All were in favor of act- g ce, but no one would volunteer s a leader. Avbout this time the Sheriff sent word to 15sed. the mob that he was prepared to regeive | 1t, and that although he wouid regret having to order nis deputies to fire on his frienas, he would surely do so if the at- tempt to storm the jail was made. This message, the absence of a good, deter- mined leader, and the knowledge that She sulted in the disorranizing of the mob, and few by few the members dispersed. Those who had been foremost in the movement were heard to say would come again when they were least expected. They were determined, they declared, that a brute who woult without se shoot down an innocent girl should >t live. By 3 o’clock Thursday morning e streets were deserted. Miss Poirier's conditicn was more criti- cal veste y. I1f she succumbs to her wounds nothing can prevent the people trom sttempting to lynch the Mexican, even if they bhave to tear the ja:l down over the Sheriff’s head to get him. FUN AT TahIlY CENTER. Big Crowd Gathering for an 0ld-Time Jollification—Graves Boys Find Another Hugget. CARRVILLE, CAL., Aug. 26.—The sizzle of the Coffee Creek boom just fairly struck Trinity Center to-day. The two days of racing and dancing which begin to-mor- row have had agood deal todo withit, and Jones would do exactly as he had | said he would, were the causes which re- | that they | the 150 persons who will sieep in cots and | barns and blankets to-night at Trinity Center have largely come to attend the races. The procession of rushers did not en- | large to-day, though the reports as to the number who were on tee way from Red- ding did. To-day a new barber opened business in a tent at the usual price, 25 cents a shave, and a shooting gallery be- gan business in another tent. A photo- craph man has also set up his machine. There is quite an influx of the sporting element #na the residents begin to realize that the boom has come. o-morrow there wiil be races, a ball game and an all-night open-air dance in the evening with a variety of trimmings. A great crowd is expected from fifty miles | around. Jim McCue, the well-known racing man of San Francisco, is here to stay wiih the boom for a while. Heis interesting him- self in a proposed new highway from the railroad siraight across to the neighbor- hood of Trinity Center or Carrville. He says a road is certain to be built bLefore long from Slatonis or Delta, forty miles north of Redding, and 1t will make the distance to Coffee Creek from the railroad less than thirty miles, mstead of sixty. ix-Judge Frick of Oakland went up Coffee Creek looking like a prospector, to- day.

Wellington and his views as to the leadership of the party in Maryland. The clash between the op- posing factions began at the fall of the | gavel which called the convention to order.

He insisted that he acted for the good of the party. Washington T. Tuck was elected tem- porary chairman over the Wellington candidate by a vote of 61 to 56. After the appointment of the commit- | , resolutions and per- | tee on credential manent organ a recess untii 4 on the convention took M., and when it re- P. assembled it was seen that the supporters | of Malster, together with otier elements of the party opposed to the policy of Sen- ator Wellington, had gained a complete victory. S Attorney-General Harry M. Claubaugh, chairman of the committee on credentials, presented a resolution declaring the Re- publican primarie= held in Baitimore to be null and void because of irregularity and that none of the delezates from the city of Baltimore were entitied to seats in the convention.

PARIS, France, Aug. 27.—All of the daily papers have editorials commenting on the importance of the announced Franco-Russian alliance. The news ar- rived 1n Paris (00 late to cause mnch com- ment in the evening papers. Special editions were engerly bought up, how- ever, and the greatest enthusiasm pre- vailed on the boulevards, It1s the general belief that the alliance is the outcome of prolonged confer-nces between Count Muravieff, Russian Minis- ter for Foreign Affairs, and M. Hanotaux. Great importance is attached to the state- ment that M. Hanotaux will return via Warsaw to Vienna, in order to interview \Count Goluchowski, Austrian Minister for Foreign Affairs, It is also stated, but not yet confirmed, that President Faure will stop at Cepen- hagen on his way home, charged by the Czar with a mission for the King of Den- mark or the Dowager Czari Before quitting Russia M. Faure wired to the Dowager Czarina at Copen- hagen as follows: “‘At the moment of leaving Russia I am most desirous of telling your Majesty what an ineffaceable souvenir I carry away of my reception at the hands of the Em- peror. France knows that the intimate which exists to-day between the two nations is due to the initiative and the grand idea of Alexander I1L. We unite | the memory of your august husband and the person of Nicholas, your well-beloved son, in one sentiment of affection. 1 re- new to your Majesty with emotion the assurance of my profoundly respectful at- tachment. Faure.” The Soir says: The country will read the news with deep emoiion. France must be proud to think that the aliisnce, solemnly sealed, was announced on a ves- sel flying the Frenca flag and in the pres- ence of officers of the French army. The 1wo affianced nations will henceforth be united in the doubly sacred bonds of mar- riage and of love.” NEW GERMAN EMBASSADOR.

YOUNG LOYERS LEAP TO DEATH. To 4void Separation by Their Parents They Hurl Themselves Over a Precipice. NEW YORK, N. Y., Aug. 26.—A special to the Herald from Nashville, Tenn., says: With arms clasped about each other Carl French, a bov scarcely out ot his teens, and Helen Hunt, his pretty sweetheart, yesterday afterncon leapad over a preci- pice to instant death It wasthetragic union in eternity of two souls that were not permitted to be joined on earth. The scene of the awful ending of their romance wes in the mountains of ‘White County, near the little summer re- sort and mining town of Bonair, about 100 mil from Nashville. The rock from which the lovers jumped is 160 feet high. Young French appeared in Bonair three months ago. He came from Indianapolis, ind., to spend his vacation among the mountains, and he met He'en Hunt soon atter his arrival. She was the daughter of Allen Hunt, a well-tc-do miner, and was beautitul and accomplished. Report in Bonair has it that the girl at first turned a deal ear to the love-making ot the schoolboy. He was persistent, however, and the girl recently consented to an engagement. Their wedding was set to take place with- in a month. 1t was all to be kept a secret from the parents of the prospective bridegroom unti! the cersmony had been performed, but the young man’s father arrivea from Incianadolis Saturday to the consterna- tion of his son. Some one had written to Mr. French informing him of the interesting situ:- tion. After the first greeting was over Mr. French said, “Carl, I have come to take you home.” This unnouncement eame like a thunderbolt to the young lover. He begged his father to allow him to marry Helen, and when Mr. Krench declined to cousider such a provosition the boy declared *hat he would marry her or commit smicide. The interview, as may be judged, was a stormy one. French kept the boy under close surveillance. To-day was set asthe time for ihe journey home. Yesterday Carl begged to be aliowed to see his sweet- heart once more. “I must say good-by to her,”” be had said. Mr. French relented to the extent of ailowing a last interview, but he stipulated that the two were not 10 go out of hissight. It was late yesterday afternoon when the two heart-broken lovers met. They were allowed by Mr. French to walk to SBunset Park, the father following at the respectful aistance of about forty feer. The lovers walked to the north side of the-| park. They reached the big bluff over- looktn - the deep vrecipice and seemed to be engaged in earnest conversation, The girl leanec forward and gazed for a second into the depths. Then she drew back and put her hand into the hand of her lover. The two then embracea, and with arms entwining each other together ieaped over the precipice. Mr. F¥rench, who had been keeping a watch upon them, darted forward with a wild cry of terror and grief. He looked over the bluff, and far telow he saw the two bodies. As quickly as he could he climbed down the biuff. The boy was dead, his neck being broken. The girl's head was crushed and she was internally injured. She died in a few moments. Mr. French gave the alarm and help was quickly athand. The bodies of the two lovers were conveyed to the home of the girl's parents. The parents of both of the victims are nearly crazed with grief. The entire com- maunity is excited by the tragedy and each liule incident in the acquaintanceship of the lovers is ‘enderly recailed. The funeral services over the two bodies took place at the Methodist Church this morning. The church was filled to overflowing, and the two caskeis were literally covered with flowers. Side by «ide tue two were buried in tne old Bonair Cemetery, Mr. French saying that he did not have the heart to separate them. THE FIKES P.AX MURDER, John -B. Edmunds, Who Is Suspected of Complicity in the Crime, Is Arrested. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 26.—John B. Edmunds, the young man suspected of complicity in the murder on the top of Pikes Peak of Herbert H. Kay of Wisner, Nebr., was arrested to-aay. He gamed a great deal of notoriety during the pen- dency of the famous insurance case of Dr. G. W. Fraker, the Excelsior Springs phy- sician who mystcriously disappeared after securing $50,000 worth of life policies. Edmunds was Fraker's office-boy in Missouri, and swore on the stand that he had seen the physician drown. When Fraker was later found in hiding in the Minnesota woods and brought back here for trial Edmunds disapoeared. Heloomed up in Colorado Springs recently, again the office-boy for Fraker, who, after being dis- chargea, nad gone to that State to prac- tice. Edmunds disappeared from Colora- do Bprings a fewdays before the Kay mur- der, after stealiag the doctor’s revolver. Dr. Fraker has ziven 1he Colorado officials damaging evidence against the boy who formerly so stoutly derended him. Edmunds was taken to Iuspector Hal. pin’s room to unuergo the ‘‘sweating’’ vrocess. He had scarcely entered the room when, without being questioned, he volunteered, “I was in Larned, Kans., on the 19th.” He later insisted on his inno- cence, saying that the charge of murder was made against him by Dr. Fraker out of spite because he had left the doctor's service. 3 Edmunds’ father has produced letters written by his son from Colorado Springs, dated August 16; Larned, August 17, and Ellinwood, August 19 As the murder was committed August 18 this will go far toward establishinz an alibi. T Sy Objact to the Chero'ers. FRANKFORT, Ky., Aug. 26.—The citi- zens of Louisville and other portiors of the State are writing to Governor Bradley protesting against allowing Cherokee In- diuns to enter the State for their celebra- tion at Russeliville.

EXCLODED THE PRESIDENT McKinley Refused Ad- mission to a Grand Army Camp. The Order Will Prohibit the Use of Its Emblem as Ad- vertising Matter. Organization In a Good Financlal ‘Condltlon and Extending Its Usefulness. BUFFALO, N. Y., Aug. 26.—The Presi- dent of the United States was refused ad- mission to the Grand Army camp this mogning, although he had come at the special invitation oi the veterans and everything was in readiness 1o receive him. The incident proved one of great morti- fication to the Grand Army leaders and excited indignation among the members of the local committee. To the President at first it was a trifle annoying, but a few minutes after tha episode he was having a hearty laugh over it and excusing the official who re- fused him entrance by saying tbat the man was perfectly right to obey orders, no matter who demanded admittance. The reason for the refusal was that the sentry bad been ordered to admit no car- riage to the camp. Later the President visited Cayuga Island, the site of the Pan-American ex- position. and with a mailet on which his name was inscribed drove a stake in the grass plat in the center of theisland, Re- turning from the isiand, the President lunched with Frank Baird, and then, with Mrs. McKinley, General and Mrs. Alger, Miss Alger and Fred Alger, boarded Sen- ator Hanna's yacht for Cleveland. Department Commander A, D. Shaw of New York bid the veterans welcome in behalf of his State. His speech was a gracefully worded one, and its main pur- pose was a hearty fraternal greating. Adter short speeches in a light vein had been made by Governor Black of New York and Mayor Jewett of Buffalo, Gen- eral J. S. Clarkson, the commander-in- chief, read his annual report. He said that in his work in behalf of the order he had traveled 35,000 miles dur- ing the year. He paid a tribute to the Confederats veterans, saying that he had never been treated kindlier anywhere than in the South by those who wore the gray and their friends. During 1896 there were cared for in the National homes 27,338 veterans, besides many more in State homes. He encouraged the d-tai*ed observance of Memorial day among _2 children of the Nation. He dep ored he fact that some comrades have in the recent past used or attempted 10 use the order tor political purposes. He recommended that Legielatures enact laws making it illegal for parties to use the Grand Army emylem for advertising purposes. Charles W. Buck, junior vice-com- mahder-in-chief, read his report, which was brief, after which attention was given to the report of Surveyor-Genaral A. E. Johnson, M.D. His report covered only thirty departments, and thercfore was in- complete. I{l thowed, however, that thirty-two yeirsafter the close of the war 35 per cent of the deaths reporied were from service origin. Adjutant-General Charles F. Burmes- ter's report contained the following fig- ures: The total membership of the order in good standing June 30, 1896, was 7302 posts with 340,610 members; on December 31, 1896, 7276 posts with 327,412 members; on June 30, 1897, 7106 posts with 319,456 mem- bers. The gain by musterin was 10,534, by transfer 4381, by reinstatement 11,207, from delinquent report 6307; total, 32,929 The losses were by deaths 7415, honorabie discharge 1257, transfer 4642. suspension 30,771, dishonorable discharge 411, by de- linquent reports 8931, by surrender of charter 606; total, 54.183." Including the members remaining suspended June 30, 1897 (43,560), the total borne on the roils was 362,816, The report of Quartermasler-General Burbank showed the balance on hand to be $7711, of which sum $5733 is to the credit of the Grant monument fund. Judge Advocate-General Albert Ciark recommended the following amendment to the rules: “‘No person shall be eligible to member- ship who has at any time borne arms against the United States, except such as belonged to the Southern militia at the outbreak of the war. but never took the oath of allegiance to the Conf-derate States, a1d afterward rendered faithful service as Union soldiers; and except also, those who, living in the Sou:h, entered the Confederate service, but e caped there- from as soon as possible, and enlisted in the Union army and received therefrom an honorable discharge. Captain E. L. Zalinski, U. 8. A. (re- tired), who has Interested himself in the military education of the school children of the Nation, reported that the work was not progressing as nicely as he had hoved it would. The principal objection to car- rying out of the idea seems to be the expense attached thereto, A poem entitled **New.York’s Welcome to the Grand Army” was read by the au- thor, Rev. James Prentiss Fisher, D. of Geneva, N. Y. Peais of applause greeted its conclusion. Cimcinnati’s trnumph in securing the encampment for 1898 and Penusylvania's victory in winning the commander-in- chief of the Grand Army were the features of the encampment. Both battles were hard fought, The strugele was precipi- tated immediately after the executive ses- sion was called to order. The selection of the next place of meeting was first taken up and the rival cities were given a hearing, A Delegate Woodruff of California pre- sented the ciaims of 8an Francisco. On the first batlot Cincinnati received 526 votes and San Francisco 214. Tue vote bad not been annonnced when Mr. Wood- roff witbarew San Francisco and asked that the selection of Cincinnati be 1aade unanimous., This was agreed to. Following the selection of Cincinnati Archbishop Ireland was called to the stand, and made a glowing speech. He was followed by General Lew Waliace, Who made a short addres s. Nominations for commander-in-chief were declared in order anl Isaac F. Mack of Sandusky, Ohio, J. P. 8. Gobin of Le- banon, Pa., George H. Innes of Boston and John G. Linehan of New Hampshire were presented. Later Mr. Innes with- drew. The first ballot resulted: Mack 253, Linehan 181, Gobin 296. No choice. The vote on ine second ballot was never announced officially, but as cast it stood: Gobin 358, Mack 249, Linenan 128. Before the resuit could be announced by the tels lers the ten Missouri votes that had been cast for Mack were withdrawn and ordered changed to Gobin, who had reccived the other twelve of the twenity-two votes he- longing to the State. This gave Gobin 368 votes and enough to elect. The Illinois and other States began toorder their votes changed, but while this was in progress R. B. Brown of Ohio, who nominated Mr, Mack, asked upanimous consent that the adjutant-general be instructed to cast the vote of the encampment for Mr. Gobin, making his election unanimous, ——— Woman’s Keiicf torps Meets.

The turee-year-old face brought out: five animals, among them Hijo del Diablo, which has a 2:11}4 mark to his credit. He was barred in the betting and Primrose selected as the speediest of the remainder, but both Telephone and Majella B fin- ished ahead of the little mare, as she per- sisted in fiying into the air.

Booth-Tucker Returns From London and Outlines His Scheme. WIIl Allot Lands in Small Tracts, Which Wiil Be Paid For on the Instaliment Plan. NEW YORK, N. Y., Aug. 26.—Com- mand-r Booth-Tucker gave details of his plans to-day for the Salvation Army col- onies in California and other parts of the West. He has returned to America filled with enthusiasm concerning the proposed colonies. He says his plans were warmly commended in London by General Booth. various ecriticisms that had been raised he said: “I am prepared to meet every objection to this plan, and I have made a practical study of it. I have subm:itted it not only to General Booth but to many prominent buosiness men in this country, also to the editors of newspapers who are familiar with the sections where the colonies will be established, and I have yet to find one who does rot give hearty approval. The Salvation Army will undertake the organization of an association and will endeavor to secure sufficient funds for a fair trial and to secure such colonies as are desirable. We need $300,000 to start with, and we will secure a tractof irri- gable land in Coloraao, Wyoming or Utah, which will be paid for in install- ments. For several years I was an officer of the British Government in India, and I know the practical results of irrigation. There can be no question about good crops each year. We wil! divide the land into ten-acre farms, and we will build a cabin or small house on each firm and have the land ready for cultivation and a bank account of $200 to iis credit. The colonists will pay for the lund in instaliments at the rate of perbans §1 per week. We believe these colonists will come from largely populated ceniers nearest the colony."” “Why not start these colonies nearer the large cities of the East rather than the West?” was asked. *‘We need & large section of land, and we must get it ns cheap as possibie. and it must be irrigable. We are unable to find the conditiors in the East. We have re- ceived offer. of land near Pueblo, Colo.
