An Estate of Nearly Five Millions Seized to Satisfy Claims of Creditors. Ex-President Barillas of Guatemala, whose gay career and spendthrift habits are familfar to the people of two conti- nents and whose penchant for lavishing money on his lady-loves was notorious, is again before the public, notwithstand- ing his retirement from public life to one of his many estates in his native coun- try. His reappearance comes through the re- port just made public by the committee of creditors who took his immense prop- erties in hand last year for the purpose of protecung his creditors. It is a plain business statement, but it shows that the general not only had “money to burn,” but that he indulged In that expensive pastime in an amazing way. While he is supposed to have had many friends among the fair sex, his downfail is attributed largely to the princely fash- ion in which he squandered his fortune upon Miss May Taber, an attractive and lively yvoung woman of this city. His greatest escapade with this damsel was a pyrotechnic tour of Burope, during which he literally threw money away in efforts to_please his companion. Some of his largest creditors, knowing his reckless conduct and fearing he would dissipate his entire fortune, took meas- ures to force him into liquidation. : Barillas' entire properties came into the possession of a committee of three leading bankers of Guatemala, consisting of Carlos Sauerberg, G. Mohr and Gustav Meyer, as trustees for all the creditors. While their reports show that the general is still solvent, it is nevertheless a start- ling exposition of his lack of business tact and disregard of ordinary business rules. On the 20th of May last the appraised value of his estate was $5985,166 68, but at that time the millionaire had only $52 05 in cash. He certainly knew how to borrow money, with or without security, as shown by ‘the fact that in Guatemala he owes $4,709,060, of which only $3,008,451 is secured, leaving an unsecured imdebt- edmess of $1,700,609 19. All these vast claims are held by twenty-three credi- tors. In San Francisco there are several firms that take a painful interest in the settle- ment of the general's estate, the principal ones being: Castle Bros., ¥ b 50; F. Urruela & Co., $1817 92; E. L. G, Steele & Co., 816,767 67; aggregating $1 09. It will be seen that the easy-going ex-Presi- dent succeeded in piling upie grand total | debit account of $4,848,851 90. Barillas, though having nothing to do with the handling of his estate, is allowed an annual income of $12,000, American money. He is still attached to his charming young lady friend, who shares | his misfortunes in a haclenda a short dis- | tance from the home of Mrs. Barillas, The creditors hope that by proper man- agement the assets will be sufficient to { pay all claims, and there may be a sur- plus to turn over to the ex-President with which to begin life anew. —_————— THE BOY PIANIST. Master Hassell Pleases a Large and i Critical Audience. The invitation recital given by the | youthful pianist, Irwin Eveleth Hassell, | at Sherman-Clay Hall yesterday after- | noon was attended by a large and criti- | cal audience, many of the most prominent | professional and amateurmusiciansof the ;cny being present. The young artist made | a very favorable impression, his execution | being declared remarkable. The feature | of his playing which called forth much | flattering comment was his masterful left hand movement. He executed the most difficult passages in a long and classical programme with apparer® ease, and re- sponded to the kind reception of his ef- forts with a_good imitation of a Pader- ewski bow. While delicate in appearance, there was no apparent lack of power in | his handling of the instrument. However, he pleases more in the lighter and softer | parts, into which he brought considerable | grace and expression. It must be said, Rowever, that s playing has too much of the mechanical. Still, maturer years and education may obviate this fault. The lad certainly possesses a wonderful mem- ory, as he rendered the entire programme without the score. Probably the most interested auditor was_ little Paloma Schramm, the prodigy who made such a | successfui debut in this city recently. She | evidently enjoyed the entertainment, and | made whisperéd comments upon the more difficult passages, Master Hassell was as- sisted by Miss Alma Berglund, soprano; | Henri Bettman, concert-meister; Mrs. M. | Cameron Smith’ and F. L. King, director. | ‘AT orchestra of twenty-one pleces from | the Symphony Society furnished the ac- companiment to the last number, Men- | delssohn’s Concerto, op. 25. — re————— THE PRINTERS STRIKE. It Will Probably Be Called Off Dur- ing the Coming Week. A special meeting of the Typographical Union will be held in the Shiels bffildin this afterncon, when propositions for ter- minating the strike will be considered. | At the last two meetings of the union motions to declare the strike off have been overwhelmingly defeated, but it is generally expected that some definite plan of settlement will be arranged to- day. All through the strike the union has been badly handicapped for want of ifficient money, although there has al- vays been enough to pay the strike bene- fits from week to week. The only direct source of income has been a 15 per cent weekly assessment on all earnings, the balance of the funds having been ob- tained by spasmodic donations from out- side unions. Very few of the strikers have broken their obligations and gone back to work. A* few have procured employment out- side the business, and others have left the city permanently. The great major- ity, however, have been in camp, where they could live cheaply and were out of the way of temptation to go back to work. Many plans for calling the strike off without breaking the power of the union in the book and job offices have been sug- gested, the most popular of which Is to declare the ten-hour offices *‘open” of- fices and give the men the privilege of working in them on a compromise scale which will not put the nine-hour offices into unfair competition, and if an agree- ment can be made with the proprietors this plan will probably be carried out during the coming week. —_———————— TRYING TO REMOVE HIM. An Effort to Have Consul Carillo Re- called for Alleged Treasonable Utterances. Tt is rumored that charges have been filed against Miguel Carillo, local Consui for Guatemala, for utterances which at the present time are considered danger- ous. He is accused of having openly boasted of being a blue-blooded Spaniard and a descendant of a noble Castilian family, and, moreover, of being proud of that distinction. According to the rumor residents of Guatemala, who are staying in this city, have filed affidavits with the home Government with a view to_having him recalled. The friends of the accused Consul have placed a different Interpretation on the actions of those who are trying to pro- c‘gre his undoing. They say that Carillo was a warm friend and earnest supporter of Barrios, and during the latter’'s reign took an active part in the management of the republic, during which time he incurred many enmities: that since the assassination of President Barrios an- other political party has sprung up, to which the local Consul is persona non rata. They have, therefore, falsely filed these charges of unpatriotic and undiplomatic utterances with a sole view to having another appointed in his stead. —_———— Foresters’ Relief Society. At _a meeting of the Companions of the Forest of America in the Alcazar the preliminary steps were taken to or- ganize a rellef society to be composed of Companions and of Foresters, which shall have for its object the furnishing com- forts to soldiers who shall go to the front and the caring for the dependents of For- esters who have enlisted and who may be in need. Tt is proposed to ask each court and circle to contribute $ to a fund and Lthen ask each Forester to contribute | | | | cents a month during the war. As there are 6000 Foresters and 1600 Companions in the State quite a handsome sum will be realized. MRS HEARST'S GENEROSITY. She Endows the Town of Anaconda, Mont., With a Complete Library. Through the generosity of Mrs. Phebe A. Hearst the citizens of Anaconda, Mont., are now in possession of a mag- nificent collection of books. Knowing the great need of a library in that city, Mrs, Hearst set about remedying the want. Out of her own pocket she expended thou- sands of dollars in order to give the in- habitants of Anaconda the benefits and quuymems of good literature. he generous-hearted lady was given a rousing reception last night by those upon whom she bestowed her ~bounty The following telegram from the Gov- ernor of this State was read and was greeted with enthusiasm: SAN FRANCISCO, June 11, 1835, The Trustees of the Anaconda Library, Ana- conda, Mont.: The Governor of California sends ' congratulations to the citizens of Ana- conda and greeting to the royal regent of our | State University, Mrs. Hearst, on the opening | of a new fountain of knowledge.
