LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 19.—Gen- eral Don Carlos Buell, hero of three afternoon at his home, Paradise, in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. had been in poor health for several months, but insisted that he was not going to die.

CORBETT LEADS IN THE BETTING Seven to Ten the Odds Against Sharkey. | Point the Mexican War broke out and | he went with the invading army as| first lieutenant of the Third Infantry. | | At Monter: and at Contreras he won the brevet of major. After the close of the Mexican War he served continuously on staff | duty until 1861. He was among | first of the brigadiers of volunteers | commissioned by President Lincoln, | and the work he did in organizing the | army about Washington, for which his | talents especially fitted him, was gen- erally recognized in military circles. In November he was transferred to the West to succeed General W. T. Sher- man in the command of the Depart- ment of the Cumberland, which was re- organized as that of the Ohio. It was in July, 1862, that Buell first encoun- tered the man who was to be his es- pecial enemy for many months—Gen- eral Bragg, who advanced into Ken- | tucky at the head of a strong force of | Confederates. After much maneuver ing and occasional fighting, which wa ally to Buell's disadvantage, the | retreated, and at midnight of mber| 24 entered Louisville at the | 1 of a disheartened army, Six days | r, under orders from Washington, over his command to The same day, how- | ever, he was restored, and the follow- | ing morning was in hot- pursuit of i agg, who had judiciously ordered a | retreat when Buell entered Louisville. | At Perryville on the afternoon of Oc- | tober 8, Bragg having halted and de- | terminea to give battle, a general en- | gagement took pjace. The action was | | hotly contested until after darkness | came on. At daybreak next morning Bragg struck his camp and began a retreat. Buell pursued him, but the pursuit was not marked with success, and he was severely censured for not moving with more celerity. Two weeks afterward he was superseded by Gen- eral Rosecrans. A military commission was ordered to investigate Buell's ac- tion, but its report was never publish- ed. He remained under waiting orders until June, 1864, when he resigned his commission in the army_and retired to civil life a disappointeC man. General Buell's ability as an organ- | izer and a tactician is unauestioned: he was familiar with every detall of a | sbldier’s duty and had many admirable | qualities as a commander. Whether he | was possessed, however, of that qual- ity most highly valued in a soldier, the | faculty of seizing opportunities as | they arise and making the most of| | them, is a mooted question. With his | death disappears one of the last of the | Union generals and the verv last of the commanders of a separate army. |BOLD BLUFF OF THE FILIPINO AGITATORS - o= | Aguinaldo Cables Delegates Abroad | to Insist Upon Absolute Independence.

A telegram . was sent to Aguinaldo asking for instructions, and the following reply is said to have been received: “Insist upon absolute independence. Otherwise fight to the death.

Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Nov. 19.—For the first time during his career as a pugilist ames J. Corbett, former champion of the world, will be seen in a contest for blood in this vicinity in the arena of the Lenox Athletic Club on Tuesday night, when he meets Tom Sharkey. Many New Yorkers have seen Corbett box in his several plays, but few in- deed have ever seen him on his mettle in a ring contest. Therefore the in- terest in the former champion’s com- ing fight is greater than ever before shown in a glove event in this city, and the indications are that the at- tendance will be a record-breaking one. The confidence of the local admirers in Corbett’s ability as a boxer is so pronounced that the former champion is a 10 to 7 favorite over the sallor pugilist. To Corbett the contest means much.\ Jim is anxious for a return match with Fitzsimmons, which he thinks will result in giving him his former peerles:. position in fistiana, The medium through which he hopes ;(n gain his end is a victory over Shar- ey. Corbett’s alr of confldence, so notice- able when he fought Sullivan and Mitchell and so conspicuous by its ab- sence when he met the Australian in Nevada, is now very much in evidence. He says that if he is beaten the fault alone will be his. That Corbett has not forgotten the effectiveness of the solar plexus blow is evidenced by the plan he has followed in his training to with- stand it Tuesday night should Sharkey attempt it. He has paid particular at- tention to the development of his body and bunches of muscles now stand out prominently in that part of his anato- my. These muscles, he believes, will prevent a repetition of the Carson City affair. Corbett is certainly confident of winning, and confidence is a big factor in the battle. In a matter of sci- ence there is no comparison between Sharkey and Corbett. The latter clearly outclasses his rival in that respect. He is not so sturdy nor can he hit as hard as the sailor. Sharkey believes that he will hit Corbett and hit him hard. He figures that Corbett will then collapse under the strain of his blows. Sharkey claims to have developed scientific practices recently and that in compari- son Corbett’s cleverness will not be so pronounced. Sharkey will have to show phenomenal improvement to bring around sporting men to his way of thinking. Sharkey has never yet been able to control himself when under punishment. His fights with Choynski, Fitzsimmons and Corbett prove this. The rules under which the men will battle—breaking clean on clinches— handicap Sharkey. He is essentially an in-fighter and has never yet shown his ability to wi n on long rough work. AFTER FORTY-SEVEN YEARS” ACTIVE SERVICE Rear Admiral Joseph N. Miller Will Be Retired From the Navy Next Tuesday. NEW YORK, Nov 19.—Rear Admiral Joseph N. Miller, who hoisted the Ameri- can flag over Hawail on August 12 last, will be retired next Tuesday after spend- ing over forty-seven years in active ser- vice. Admiral Miller will make New York his home. When interviewed Admiral Miller said: “The Hawalian Islands are necessary to us both from a strategical and a commer- cial point of view. This will be more ap- Earent when the Nicaraguan canal has cen constructed, which I am sure will be | within ten years. “From my experience on the Isthmus of Panama 1 was formerly of the opinion that if an_ inter-oceanic canal was ever constructed it would be on the line of the Panama Railroad. But further infor- mation has convinced me that the most | practicable route is through Nicaragua, and I further believe that the eanal will be built, constructed and controlled with- out the Intervention or assistance of any foreign power.” REORGANIZERS WERE THE ONLY BIDDERS Sale of the Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf Railroad Under a Fore- closure. PUEBLO, Colo., Nov. 19.—Nine mill- jons and a quarter is the price the Unlon Pacific, Denver an@ Gulf Rail- road brought at foreclosure sale in this city this afternoon. The reorganization committee was the purchaser, and its representative, E. C. Henderson of New York, was the only bidder. The sale was to satisfy the consolidated mortgage covering the property of the company and the lines it had absorbed, the Den- | ver, Texas and Gulf and the Denver, Texas and Fort Worth. The trackage | sold is nearly 1000 miles in length, and is located principally in Colorado and New Mexico, though there was track- age and terminal in Cheyenne, Wyo., covered by the sale to-day. The sale was conducted by Marshall B. John- ston, special master, acting under a decree of the United States Court for the District of Colorado. Denver, Texas and Gulf, between Pueblo and Denver. There was but the one bid of Mr. Henderson of $1,500,000. Next he of- fered the Denver, Texas and Fort ‘Worth from Pueblo through New Mex- | jco to the Texas line. Mr. Henderson had no competition on this and bid, as he did in every case, the minimum amount, $2,500,000. The Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf proper in Northern Colorado and Wyoming was the next and last separate offer. Mr. Hender- son’s bid was $5,250,000. The system was then offered as a whole, and Mr. Henderson bid $9,250,000, the aggregate of his separate bids, which is $250,000 in | excess of the minimum required by the court for the property sold in bulk. Henderson, for the reorganization committee, also bought the assets of the receivership. not subject to the for- mer mortgage, for $37,500. The transfer to the new company is expected to be made January 1, when the name will be the Colorado and Southern. The present receiver, Frank Trumbull, is said to be slated for presi- dent. —_—— ASSASSINS ATTACK EX-KING OF SERVIA Two Attempts Made to End t}:e Life of Milan With Bullets. LONDON, Nov. 19.—A special dispatch from Bucharest, published this afternoon, says two attempts have been made re- cently upon the life of ex-King Milan of Servia. The first, it appears, was made on a train between Kragujevez and Nisch, a number of peasants” attacking the for- mer King's car with pistols and stones. They smashed the windows and wounded some of the members of his suite. Later, at Nisch, a man dressed as a student and armed with a revolver, entered Milan's bedroom, but was arrested before he could attack the ex-King. eaoh S St NEGRO KILLED BY WHITECAPS.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., Nov. 19.—A special to the News from Nashville says: John Smart, a well-disposed colored citi- zen, living at Chapeltown, a mile and a half from Smartts station in Warren County, Tenn., was shot and killed by white caps last night. The white caps had served a notice on Mack Smarit, a son of the old man. At a late hour twen- ty-three men visited his house. Mack re- fused to come out. whereupon coal oil was poured on the stde of the house, but not ignited. A torch was lighted and placed near the house, and old man Smartt, thinking the house was on_fire, rushed out into the yard, where he was shot and ‘died instantly. The weapon used was a shotgun, both barrels of which were dis- charged. The white cara rode away im- mediately after the killing. R ¢ searsim BETROTHAL STORY FALSE.

Lewis Kills Mrs. Hadley and Himself. THE MOTIVE A MYSTERY | ASSASSIN HAD KNOWN HIS VIC- TIM FROM INFANCY. Fatal Shots Were Hcard, but the Bodies Lay All Night in an Alley While a Storm Raged. Special Dispatch to The Call. WINNEMUCCA, Nev.,, Nov. 19.—In- | tense excitement prevails throughout the community over an awful double tragedy which occurred here last even- ing about 8 o’clock. William R. Lewis, bookkeeper for Miller & Lux at their distributing ranch, Quinn River, Hum- boldt County, this State, shot and in- stantly killed Mrs. D. J. Hadley, wife of ex-Sheriff Hadley of this place, and then committed suicide. Although the crime was perpetrated at an early hour, it was not known until this morning, when discovered by a young man pass- ing the spot where the bodies lay. The tragedy occurred in an alley in close proximity to Mrs. Hadley’s home. The position of the bodies indicated that there was no struggle. Mrs. Hadley was found lying flat on her back, her body perfectly straight, one hand raised and partially in a position as if she had thrown up her arm to ward off | the bullets. The tan cape she wore | covered her face and showed bullet holes. One shot entered the right cheek- bone, ranging downward and coming | out at the neck a little below the ear. The other bullet went in the ear and | passed through the head, coming out at the neck a little below the left ear. | Lewis then seated himself by the body of his victim and fired a third shot into his own head. The effect was instan- taneous. He fell over on Mrs. Hgdley, his head resting on her breast. e re- ! volver was found between his body and left hand, presumed to have fallen when his right hand relaxed its hold. The three shots were heard by & num- ber of persons in the vicinity, but the weather being inclement no one seemed to be sufficiently impressed by the re- ports to investigate the matter, and the bodies lay at the mercy of the storm throughout the night. The Coroner’s jury found that Mrs. | Hadley came to her death by a gunshot wound inflicted by Lewis, and that | Lewis met his death by a gunshot wound inflicted by his own hand. No theory is advanced as to the cause of the deed. Mrs. Hadley bore a reputation above | reproach. She had been a resident of | this vicinity all her life. She was the | most exceilent chief of the order of the Rathbone Sisters of this place. She was very cheerful and kindly of dispo- sition and young in appearance for her age, 38 years. William Lewis was a young man of exemplary habits, a native of Nevada, 22 years old. He was well known and liked. 0 The families of both parties are emi- nently respectable and are prostrated | by the dreadful occurrence. In her younger days Mrs. Hadley was a mem- ber of the Iewis household, ever since | which_time’ a strong attachment had existed between them. The young man | who perpetrated the double crime was a child when Mrs. Hadley first knew him, and in whom she has always evinced a kindly interest. It is known that he made a confidant of her and sought her advice as a friend when he | deemed it necessary In his affairs, facts | which deepen the mvstery surrounding the tragic event. During the day pre- | ceding the shooting Lewis was about town attending to his customary duties preparatory to returning to Quinn River. | BISSELL RECEIVES A MERITED PROMOTION Made Assistant Traffic Manager of the Santa Fe and Will Be Lo- cated on This Coast.

DISPUTE RESULTS IN A CHARGE OF LIBEL President Keamsy_ot the California Raisin-Growers’ Association Arrested. FRESNO, Nov. 19.—M. Theo Kear- ney, president of the California Raisin Growers’ Association, was arrested to- night on a charge of criminal libel. The complainant was H. H. Welsh, an at- torney of this city. The allegcd libel consisted in Mr. Kearney attributing to Mr. Welsh a communication which purported to have been written to A. Gartenlaub, a raisin packer. A news- paper controversy has been going on for some time between those gentlemen and the letters on both sides consisted mainly of personal abuse. 3 Last Thursday Mr. Kearney accused Attorney Welsh of havine written a communication for Mr. Gartenlaub, and then the president of the Raisin Growers’ Association took occasion to denounce the attorney for his connec- tion with a suit against Kearney over a land deal. Welsh says he did not write the communication and was not connected with the suit mentioned by ‘Kearney.
