I signed my name partly out of friendship and partly for the confidence which I have at all times placed in Burns.

As soon as the condi- tions were reported to Admiral Dewey he im- mediately supported the troops in resisting the attack. The Charleston, | Monadnock and Callao! were moved forward from Cavite, and once | the positions of the as- sailants were made out a vigorous fire was opened from the war- ships, and at this writing they are pouring a rain of shell upon the posi- tions of the insurgents at Malabon and Malate. No attempt at co-operation in the attack has been made by the natives in the city. The news of the attack was re- ceived with surprising calmness by the civilian population, upon whom the strictest discipline is maintained by Otis, and the uni- form orderly demeanor of the request of a friend—Mr. | make a good Senator.

The transfer was accom- | plished without disorder, a detail of soldiers being provided to es- | cort them to boats at the Puente | | Espano and the Old City front, | whence they were ferried over to the fleet. 1 Occasionally a spent shot fromf} | the insurgents’ lines falls within | [ the city, a testimony to the in- ferior quality of the ammunition | with which Aguinaldo’s men are| supplied. | | The greatest cheerfulness pre-| vails among the American troops. | The idea of Aguinaldo’s success | is not contemplated.

General Otis’ present available | force in this city is as follows: Volunteers-—First Colorado, First Idaho, Fifty-first Iowa,| Twentieth Kansas, Thirteenth | Minnesota, First Montana, First | | Nebraska, First North Dakota, | | Second Oregon, Tenth Pennsyl- vania, First South Dakota, First | Washington, First Wyoming, | First California, First Tennessee, two batteries First California | Heavy Artillery, one troop First Nevada Cavalry. \ Regulars—Fourteenth, Eigh- | teenth and Twenty-third Infan- [try, Company A Engineer Bat- |talion, detachment Third Artil- {lery, detachment Sixth Cavalry. | The Third, Fourth, Eighteenth | and Twentieth Infantry and Com- panies B, D, F.

Mayor R. F. Johnson of this city has been in close corre- spondence with Monterey’s Assembly- man, F. P. Feliz, since the opening of the Legislature, laying before him all | the data connected with the history of | the famous old building, the momentous | events that occurred within its walls, its present condition and uses, and from | this material Mr. Feliz h: - formulated | a bill to be presented for the considera- | tion of the Legislature. The bill pro- | vides for the appropriation of a cer- | tain sum annually from the State fund to complement the sum raised by the citizens of Monterey city and county, | the entire amount to be used in keeping | the valuable oid structure in a state of preservation. i In 1893 a similar bill was presented | in the State Legislature and passed both houses, but was vetoed by Gover- nor Markham and no further effort was made to bring it to life. Colton Hall is beyond question the most important building in the State, from the standpoint of the amount and character of State history that was made on the floors of its quaint old rooms. The building was begun in 1846 by a company of Mormons who came to Monterey in that year, intending to form a Mormon colony here, and was first designed for a Mormon temple. The funds gave out absolutely, how- ever, and the Mormons were obliged not only to discontinue building when little more than the foundation had been completed, but to dispose of the prop- erty in order to get means for moving to another locality. They went from here to a place near San Bernardino and from there drifted into Arizona or joined their brethren at Salt Lake. The grounds and foundation of the building were bought by Rev. Walter Colton, the first American Alcalde of Monterey, and the edifice completed by him to be used as-a City Hall. It is said a large portion of the money used in the building of it was obtained by the seizure of the winnings of gamblers when Monterey undertook to put down ADVERTISEMENTS.

This | deed brought about long litigation after Colton’s death, his heirs wanting the | land upon which the building stands | and endemvoring to wrest it from the | city. The case was finally settled in | favor of the city about three years ago. | One of the most important events in the edifice was the assembling and de- | liberating of the famous constitutional | convention in 1851—the convention that | drafted and signed the first constitu- | tion of the State of California—that constitution that has been so widely copied in framing the constitutions of younger States and amending those of the older commonwealths of the Union. | Sutter’s Fort, a building of not half the interest and significance of Colton | Hall and one that is scarcely ever seen by visitors to California, has had large sums expended upon it by the State, and the Monterey people feel that it is no more than justice that they should at least be assisted in their efforts to preserve the edifice that is the most fitting monument to the men who labored to make California the great State it now is. SAYS RUSSIA IS | A TRUE FRIEND Ethan Allen Hitchcock Returning. KIND WORDS FOR THE CZAR LONDON, Feb. 4—Ethan Allen| Hitchcock, the retiring American Em- | bassador to Russia, who was recently | appointed United States Secretary of | the Interior, arrived in London on his | way to Washington. He carries home | the strongest pro-Russian sympathies. | In an interview had with him by a rep- | resentative of the Associated Press Mr. Hitchcock denounced emphatically the stories current since the beginning of the Hispano-American war that Rus- sia was a member of the coalition of | Continental powers which would have | intervened in the dispute had England | not refused to join them. “These stories are utterly unfound- ed,” said Mr. Hitchcock. ‘There has| never been a single item of proof pro- duced to substantiate them, and, on the contrary, Russia has been most friendly toward the United States and has manifested that friendship during the | past years in many ways, of which my | position forbids me to speak. Unfortu- nately the Russian Government is so constituted that it cannot do much talking in such cases as the present, but can only wait for time to afford opn- portunities for proving the truth. “When these opportunities arise its friendship will be demonstrated. Th= false impressions which have arisen are very unfortunate and, I think, are largely due to the utterances of Rus- sian newspapers, certain of which are popularly supposed to be official or- gans, whereas the supposition is ut- terly unfounded, as they represent the Government no more than independent sections of the American press repre- sent that Government. “In criticizing domestic politics the Russian papers must be most cautious, but whea it comes to foreign s they are allowed a degree of liberty and even license which surprised me. Of course, they say things that inter- | fere with the Government’s plans, and | they may be cautioned and told thet they are injudicious, but ordinarily they are entirely unhampered.” Like many persons making the ac- quaintance of the Czar, Mr. Hitchcocic has a profound admiration for the potentate, and expresses himsel? strongly as to his frankness, siiccrity and enterprise. After the formal presentation of his letters of recall on Saturday last Mr. Hitchcock had a long personal talk with the Czar and Count Muravieff, the Russian Foreigr Minister. He scoffs | at the idea that the Czar’s peace pro- paganda is inspired by any but the highest motives. Regarding the Czar's proposal looking to the limitation of armaments, Mr. Hitchcock said: “The Czar is in no wise discouraged by the reception of his plans for check- ing the increase of armaments, He has not any idea that he will achieve all he desires immediately, but is firm in the belief that his views must prevail in time and at a not far distant time.” Mr. Hitchcock was delayed for a fort- night by the difficulty he encountered in arranging for a reception by the Czar, on account of the winter festivi- | ties which were in progress, and in which the members of the royal family particlpated actively, the Czar attend- YOUNG POTENTATE SINCERE IN DISARMAMENT PLAN.

FI REMAN SLAIN OR SHANGHAIED AUSALITO, Feb. 4.—George Melo- S vich, a fireman of the steamer s Sausalito, has been missing since last Monday evening under circum- stances that point to foul play. The theory held by the local officials and the San Francisco detective force is that the man was “shanghaied,” but there are many who think that he was GEORGE MELOVICH. robbed, murdered and thrown into the bay. Melovich has been in the employ of the North Pacific Coast Railway Com- pany for the past fifteen years and has always proved a trustworthy man. Last Monday evening he was asked to do extra duty and came over on the theater trip. After the _passengers had disembarked at Clay street the Sausalito proceeded to Powell-street wharf and the freight cars were load- ed, after which the steamer was taken back to Clay street to wait for the 11:30 trip to this city. At about 11 o’clock Melovich left the fireroom and strolled up and down the lower deck. He conversed with Night ‘Watchman Lennox and a deckhand named Silva for a while and then walked off the hoat with the remark that he intended to get a drink. That was the last seen of him by his friends. Superintendent Shoemaker became alarmed when the fireman did not ap- pear on Wednesday and communicated with Chief Lees. Detectives were set at work on the case, but so far no clew has been discovered as to the missing man's whereabouts. “The theory of the detectives, said Mr. Shoemaker, “is that Melovich was “shanghaied.” They assert that sailors are very scare and think he was enticed into one of the water-front grog shops and drugged. Three deep- water ships sailed next day and he may have been taken away on one of them.” Many of the fireman’s friends scoft at this theory. They say he was known to have a small sum of money on his person when he disappeared and that for this he was rugged, robbed and thrown into the bay. Melovich’s wife is nearly distracted over her hushand’s disappearance and cried bitterly to-day when discussing it. She is left almost destitute and with two small boys to take care of. The railway company has promised to provide for her, and, if it is learned that her husband is dead, to find her suitable employment. ing reunions of various regiments and | making addres: He will sail on | Wednesday. but family will not go to Washington until the fall, Mr. Hitchcock not desiring to take a house there so near the close of the season. The members of the retirin~ Embassa- dor’s family are now in Berlin and will spend some time in Italy and at Con- stantinople. Mr. Hitchcock will assume the duties of his new position immedi- ately upon his arrival in Washington. Regarding his selection by President McKinley as Mr. Bliss’ successor, he remarked: “My appointment was as much a surprise to me as it could have been ‘to the public.” Property Owners Comply. Chief Sullivan of the Fire Department is well pleased at the cheerful compliance of property owners with the enforcement of the fire ordinance providing fire escapes on all buildings of three stories and over. | Over 250 notices have been served on own- ers of property in this city. Of this num- ber 80 per cent are in the district under charge of John Wlllis, assistant engineer, which comprises the commercial section Out of the number notified to place escapes on their buildings con- tracts have been let and work commenced on over 175 buildings. In no case has either Chief Sullivan or his assistants met with refusals to comply with the ordi- nance. It is calculated that there will be up- ward of 500 buildings provided with es- capes by the time Chief Sullivan has all his reports collected from his assistants. —_—————— Piccioli’s Victim Dies. Manuel Silva, the barber, who was shot by Luigi Plccioli.at 1343 Dupont street last Fri daf’ evening, dled at a quarter- past 11 o'clock yescerdaE forenoon. Dece- dent was a native of Boston, Mass., 38 i;enrs of age. 1In the case of the death of iccioli, who cut his throat immediately after the shooting, the Coroner's jury yes- terday returned a verdict of suicide. —_—— Bay Pirates Are Held.
