THE SA FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JANUARY 30, 1899 3 MRS. MAYBRICK M@y NOW BE RELEASED Belief That the American Woman Will Receive the Much-Sought- for Clemency. NEW YORK, Jan. 20.—Another determined attempt is to be made to secure the release of Mrs. Florence Maybrick, an American woman who has now been ten years in an English prison charged with murdering her husband by poison. The fight to obtain the liberty of this woman has been long unprecedented in the history of international communications in respect to persons convicted of capitali offenses. Now, after many ires, Miss Helen Densmore, one of the chief workers in behalf of the oner, has sent this letter to the Herald: y “It is the custom of the English Home Office to revise long sentences in the case of female convicts at the end of seven, ten, fifteen and twen- ty vears. The present year is the tenthsince Mrs. Maybrick’s conviction, and the reply of the Home Secretary to Dr. Clark, M. P., Mr. Davitt, M. P, and to Mr. Dalziel, M. P., at last summer’s session of Parliament— viz: that he, Sir Matthew White Ridley, was aware of the strong opinion held America and in England as to Mrs. Maybrick's sentence, also that she has been adequately punished—has led to strong hopes that the ten years revision period will result in the release of Mrs. Maybrick, which would cause much satisfaction in England as well as in this coun- Aee» “Friends of Mrs. Maybrick,” Miss Densmore said, “are making an- other strong effort with the British Home Secretary for her release and it is important the people of England should feel that America takes a great interest in her unhappy fate.” +0404040+0404+0404+0+ 0 +0+0 +0+0+0+40+0+0+0+ 0404040404 ANXIOUS ABOUT THE NAVAL PERSONNEL BILL.

Friends of the measure are confident of favorable action. but they are apprehensive that it will be loaded down with amendments which nay injuriously affect the service. It is generally understood that a number of amendments will be introduced in the Senate, and an effort will be made to have them attached to the bill. The department is anxious that the sure should become law as it passed the House and without that pro- vision inserted by the Senate committee authorizing the appointment into the service of volunteer officers who served during the war with Spain and me; who > under twenty-five years at date of appointment. As thé Herald has stated, ther® are e who would be eligible to such appoint- ment. It has been found, however, that if the President so chooses he can make the pro on prac ically useless. He - is required to make such appointments within two years from the date of the passage of th~ act. There are very few recently discharged ~fficers not over twenty-five years, and I w told to-day it would not be necessary for the President to make more than thirty appointments, and these in the lower grades. LONG FRANKLY USES THE WORD “ALLIANCE.” of Agriculture, addressing the Farmers’' Club at Newcastle yesterday, used the word “alliance” in referring to the future relations between t Britain and the United States. The frank employme..t of this term a member of the Government is likely to evoke much discussion. not all which will be of the friendliest character, inasmuch as seeking an alli- ance to fight England’s battles is not regarded as the best policy to promote an Anglo-American entente.

LTOONA, Pa., 1. 29.—A gang of twenty-six track repairers were ing on the railroad at the western opening of the Gallitzen tunnel t 3 o'clock this afternoon when they heard the approach of a loco- > which was running west through the tunnel. The workmen all tepped from the north track. on which west-bound trains move, to the south track. The smoke in the tunnel prevented them from seeing the ap- proaching locomoti which, in order to avoid obstructions on the nortn track, was running on the south track. One man was instantly killed, one iled in the Altoona Hospital and sixteen were more or less seriously in- red. None escaped without injur “The dead: DAVID WILT, aged 40, instantly killed. THOMAS W.

ANA, TIL, Jan. 20.—Mrs. Mary MclIntyre, a wealthy widew, 60 years of P age, was found murdered in her home to-day. The body had been frightfully mutilated with an ax. Mrs. McIntyre is supposed to have kept considerable money about her. She lived alone in a small house fn the Flatham district, near the scene of several fights recently between striking union miners and negroes working in the mines. It is supposed the rime was committed two or three days ago. Neighbors became suspicious to-day, and the doors were broken open. Everything about the place showed that a desperate struggle had occurred. Mrs. MclIntyre's body was found chopped almost to pieces and thrown under a bed. Everything of value had been carried away. Mrs. McIntyre is said to have sympathized with the union miners in their struggle against negro labor. Her house has been fired on 2 number of es. ANBURY, Conn., Jan. 29.—The manufacturers of the lower priced D derby hats have effected a combination to go into effect February 1.

RIS, Jan. —The government' | on to submit to the Chamber of | Deputies to-morrow a I providing that the ca: of trial revision shall be brought before the united sections of the Court of Cassation has reopened the floodgates of the Dreyfus agita- tion. The situation appears more con- | | fusing and menacing than ever. | TFor days the anti-Dreyfusites have | been clamoring to have the case re- | ferred to the united sections, because | they have considered it certain that | | among more than thirty judges they | | could rely upon an anti-Dreyfusite ma- | jority. In to-day's Echo d- Paris, M. Ques- nay Beaurepaire, who on January 9 re signed the presidency of the civil sec- tion of the Court of Cassation as a criminal section, under the presidency of ‘.

In all political centers to- | day there has been ufiusual excitement | | and activity.

OMAHA, Jan. 20.—An enormous silver- tip bear, frenzied with an ulcerated tooth, which its master was trying to extract, aped from its cage in the Creighton Theater to-day and created a panic before being captured. In addition to frightening a number of persons the bear seriously hurt its master, Paul Batty, badly lacer- ated Stagehand McDonald and tore the clothes off Jacob Rosenthal, the manager of the theater. McDonald was assisting tract the tooth and a crowd of men and boys surrounded the cage of the enraged Batty to ex-| animal to witness the operation. The brute was fastened down with chains and ieather bands, but when the trainer | touched the ulcerated tooth the bear | gave a roar and burst his bonds as though | they were paper. With a sweep of lus | mighty paw he threw Batty and McDon- ald to the floor and turned upon the crowd around the iron cage. They fled in every direction, but the cage was demolished in a moment. Man- ager Rosenthal was climbing into the flies as the enraged bear passed his hiding place. The bear made one pass at the manager, and, catching his frock coat, carried it completely away with him. He also tore the shoe from onc of Rosenthal's feet and then passed on in pursuit of the crowd. In the maze of scenery back of the | stage the bear vented his fury by de- molishing property right and left. By this time the trainer had recovered suffi- ciently to direct the heating of irons to subdue the animal. The bear’s roars could be heard for several blocks. He was finally driven into the cellar of the the- ater, where, surrounded by a row of red- hot irons, he submitted to being bound. —— MORE CASES OF TRICHINOSIS EXIST TOMALES, Jan. 20.—Dr. Nief, the County Veterinary Surgeon, and Dr. Ur- ban, the local health official, visited .ne Conti ranch yesterday, and burned all the remaining sausage of the lot which caus- ed the first case cf trichinosis known to Marin County. The ranch, which is now under the control of one Grandi, has been quarantined for two months. The wife of Conti will recover, but Anzini lies in a precarious condition, and his death is momentarily expected. 1t is stated by Dr. Nief that four more farm hands who ate the infected nork are now lying ill at Petaluma. An examina- tion sfvlowed that the hog Kkilled was the only one having trichinosis. It was brought to the-ranch from Sonoma Coun- ty. The official deprecates the false alarm “na flurry caused by Conti's case, and ex- plains that just one hog. was afflicted. This is the only animal ever known te have been infected with this parasite in the history of Marin County. To Observe Lincoln Sunday.

W. +, SNOW BLOCKADES THE RAILAOADS Colorado Towns Effec- tually Isolated. SUFFERING ~ MAY RESULT SUPPLIES OF PROVISIONS AND COAL GIVING OUT. Kokoma in Danger of Being Carried Away by an Avalanche, : as It Yvas in the Eighties. Special Dispatch to The Call. DENVER, Jan. 29.—The snow storm which has been raging on the mount- ains since early last week has subsided. The sun broke through the clouds and the wind abated to-day. In some places the fall of snow has been the heaviest in fifteen years. In and about Lead- ville serious results are threatened. The supply of coal and provisions in the smaller mountain towns has become ex- hausted, and suffering must result un- less the railroads can be opened to these places. Snow-slides are reported from several places, but only from Apex, where three were Kkilled. has come information of casualties. Information from Kokomo is to the effect that great masses of hard- packed snow overhang the town, threatening it with serious damage, should they give way. Kokomo was carried away by an avalanche in the early eighties, and the residents are fearful lest this should be repeated now. The South Park road has been tied up between Como and Leadville for nearly a week. Several days ago an attempt as made to run a train with provi- sions westward through the snow. The train stuck near Dickey, where it has remained ever since. A snowslide near Hagerman tunnel on the Coiorado road has blocked that road west of Leadville and trains to Glenwood have gone over the Denver and Rio Grande tracks. Be- tween Como and Leadville the snow has drifted in the cuts to the depth of thir- ty and forty feet. The only road run- ning west and east from Leadville that has been clear is the Denver and Rio Grande, which has felt but little incon- venience from the storm.

BENICIA, Jan. 29.—A clerk named Mal- colm, belonging to the general s i was drowned to-day at Marti came here a few y making out the mu Eighth California Infantry. His body {s in Martinez in of the Corone; will devote practically all of the time this week to the consideration of the peace treaty. Senator Allison. chair- man of the Committee on Appropria- tions, says he will not interfere at any time with the consideration of the treaty by asking to have appropriation bills taken up, and as a consequence the treaty will have complete right of way. This week will see the close of the memorable debate, both in executive session and in open debate, as the vote is set for 3 o’clock a week from to-mor- row. Notice has been given of set speeches for every day except Monday of the present week. Senator Barry will speak. Tuesday, Senator Spooner Wednesday, Senator Rawli s Thursday, Senator Money Friday and Senator Chilton Saturday. These .peeches will be lased upon the varic resolutions on the general question of expansion and will be delivered in open session. They will, however, practically be de- voted to the treaty and will afford Sen- ators an opportunity to say openly what they would say in secret session if the resolutions were not under con- sideration. There wiil be an effort to get the speeches in before 3 o’clock each day in order to permit the closing of the doors at 2 o'clock, in accordance with the unanimous agreement to that effect, when the treaty will be taken up formally and the executive considera- tion of the subject proceeded with. Senator Bacon and Senator Mason both announce their intention of con- tinuing their efforts to get action upon’ their respective resolutions before the vote is taken upon the resolution to ratify the treaty, and hope to succeed some time during the week. The friends of the treaty are still most sanguine of success and most of them announce that they will accept no compromise. Others express a willing- | ness to accept some such resolution as that of Senator Sullivan. Those pro- fessing to know say it is the policy to force the treaty to a vote before tak- | ing action on any compromise propo- | sition, and if the treaty should by any | chance be beaten, to move to recon- | sider and then to consider the question of accepting some compromise like the Bacon resolution before final adjourn- ment in March. Almost a month of the session will be left after the vote of Monday week, so that if the Senate should prefer to accept the treaty with | a resolution of construction and in- | struction, to postponing action for an | extra session, it could do so. Interest centers in the army bill in the House of Representatives during the early part of the week. The final vote will be taken at 3 p. m. Tuesday. Prior to this the debate will be under | the five-minute rule in the main. al-| though sufficient time has been re- served to give Bailey and some of the other leaders an opportunity for ex- tended speeches. Chairman Hull of the military committee is confident the bill will pass, saying that the Republ disaffection will not exceed eizht. while several affirmative votes will come from the Democratic side. The opposition will direct its efforts toward having the bill recommitted. ‘With the army bill disposed of. the House will turn its attention to the important river and harbor bill. and then to the military academy appropri- ation bill. The river and harbor bill probably will have Wednesday. with | two hours’ debate on a side. The mili- tary academy bill is not likely to take more time than is required to read it through. No exact programme has been fixed for the rest of the week. | but Chairman Merc-r of the Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds has been pressing for a hearing on some of the public building bills now pending. | and he is likely to get a day. Chair- | man Lacey wants a day on public land | questions. | The Hawaiian bill is the most im- portant piece of general legislation | which will be agreed to a hearing. al- | though its friends may let it go over until next week. |RECALLS THE HANNA ‘ BRIBERY CHARGES | Suit Brcught to Compel the Return | of Money Received by | | Otis’ Attorngy. CINCINNATI, Jan. 29.—Judge Dempsey | had before him again yesterday the mo- tion to compel Colonel T. C. Campbell to pay into court the money which it was al- | leged was given by him last January to | Legislator Otis by H. H. Boyce, who was | supposed to be acting for Senator Hanna | when the latter was a candidate. A suit | was filed here and the attempt was made | | to garnishee the money alleged to be in | the possession of Campbell. He appeared | in court and said that the money was in New York, where it was tied by an order | of court in suits filed there against | Boyce, and that it could not be brought | here without incurring the penalty of ‘hel court there. It was also asserted by coun- | sel for Campbell that it was not the prop- | erty of Boyce. but of Senator Hanna. This was denied and it was asserted tha they could not show that the money ever | belonged to the Senator. Judge Dempsey | took the matter under advisement. | “John C. Otis is the Republican member of the Legislature from Cincinnati, who | claimed a vear ago to have been offered $1700 for his vote for Senator. Campbell is his attorney and it was claimed that H. H. Boyce paid the money to Campbell There are some who deny the whole story claiming that the money was never | turned over to any one or offered to Otis, and suit is brought both to test the claim | that was thought to have been made for | effect on the Senatorial contest and also | for the benefit of Boyce's creditors. The | matter was investigated by the Legisla- ture a year ago by a committee, of which | Vernon H. Burke of Cleveland was chair- | man. OPPENHEIMER CONVICTED. Found Guilty of the Murder of a Fellow-Convict at Folsom. SACRAMENTO, Jan. 20.—After being out twenty-three hours. the jury to- | day found Convict Jacob Oppenheim- er guilty of murder in the sec- ond degree for the killing of Charles Ross, a fellow convict in the Folsom Prison, on the last day of September. Two of the jurors held out for murder in the second degree, and the other ten, who were for murder in the first degree, finally gave in. The murder was a brutal one, and it is believed that Ross was killed because he was suspected of having been a stool pigeon for the officers. Oppenheimer is | tation free and sacredly confidential.
