Gom- pertz’s name was among the list of those killed. As yet no par- ticulars have been receivel as to how he met death. His father, M. Gompertz, lives with his family at street, wh he conducts a stationery store e first announce- ment he had of his son’s death was when he read his boy's name in the laily par as being among those killed. Mr. Gompertz was completely prostrated by the grief that was so suddenly thrust upon him. He and his family feel deeply the sacrifice they have made for their country, but they find consolation in the fact that one of their members met a soldier’s death. Young Gompertz was well known in "rancisco and had a host of iends, with whom he was exceed- ingly popular. He was in his twenty- third year. He came to this city from New York, where he was born, when a small boy. When the war broke out he was employed in the City Hall as a clerk in the office of Justice of the Peace Groezinger, but resigned his position to enlist with the First Cali- fo He sailed with his regiment, and at the fall of Manila did his duty in caring for the sick and wounded.

PROTESTS AGAINST BRIGGS. NEW YORK, April 2%.—Bishop Potter | recently informed Rev. Dr. F. M. Clen- | | denin, rector of St. Peter's Church, West- | chester, that he would hold an ordination | 14. It was the Bishop's intention then | | | to advance to the priesthood two deacons, | | Rev, Charles A. Briges, a professor in | | the Union Theological Seminary, and Rev. | | Charles H. Snedeker. Dr. Briggs, whose | | teachings at the Union' Seminary and | | whose published works had occasioned | | greatcontroversy in the Presbyterian | | chureh, left that body some time ago and | received confirmation in the Episcopal | church. His reception into that com- | munion was far from cordial. Later Dr. Briggs was recommended by the | | Bishop's examining (‘haglalns and by the standing committee of the diocese of New | York for admission to holy orders, and | was made a deacon in the Episcopal | church. The same authorities concurred in his proposed advancement to -‘the priesthood. Dr. Clendenin, who is ranked as a stanch_and moderate high churchman, | now asks Bishop Potter to alter his plans and to withdraw tbe proposed ordination from St. Peter's, Westchester. He ana- lyzes Dr. Briggs' last book, condemns his | views severely and flatly protests against Dr. Briges being ordalned at all to the | priesthood. e——————— VASE AND ORNAMENT DAY.

LOUIS, April 26.—The German | newspaper publishers of Missouri held a | meeting here to-day for the purpose of | defining their position regarding the new policy of “imperialism and militarism.” Dr. Emil Pretorius, editor of the West- | licher Post and the Nestor of the German press of America, presided, and after a lengthy discussion the following resolu- tions were unanimously adopted: i1—Systematic and uninterrupted efforts have been made during the past twelve months to destroy . by misrepresentations and unfounded sensations the good feeling and the old histori- cal friendship between the United States and Germany. These malicious intentions have cre- | ated mong the German-American population | the greatest Indignation. We therefore regard it our duty as'loyal citizens to denounce these continued falsehoods and misrepresentations, | which endanger the old friendship of the two countries: 2—Fhe friendship between the United States and Germany is as old as the history of the great American republic, and has lasted un- interrupted. As the Government of Frederick the Great was the first European power which | acknowledged the young republic of the United | ates, Germany “was the first to acknowl- | the supremacy of the United States the Philipptnes. This fact alone proves plainly that Germany has no unfriendly intentions and no desire to oppose us In the Orlent 3—1In the gldrious history of the United States from the time of George Washington to the days of the civil war the German-American population has shown strong and patriotic loy- alty to the unfon. In the darkest days of the republic the German-Americans stood firm and true by the union, as they will do in future. We German-Americans and the Germans in the old country have been cruelly misrepresented. We proved our loyalty during the past war and will continue to prove It, whatever the future may bring. But we protest most em- phatically ‘against all falsehoods and Intrigues which aré intended to interrupt in the interest of England the friendship between the United States and Germany. 4—True to the constitutions and_traditions of the republic we take a firm stand against fm- perlalism and mflitarism, knowing that the German-American citizens’ stand almost unani- mously against this new course which would endanger the welfare and the future of the republic . “Doc” Flynn Knocked Out.

Twenty- five Cree Indians are camped fifty miles | west of the Lesser Slave Lake. near Smoky River. On March 25 a half-breed named Anachou Louison became im- bued with the idea that he was bpOs- sessed of a devil.

Then suddenly turning to other | Indians near by he sai “If you don’t kill me to-night I will kill you.” The other Indians became terribly afraid of the devil-possessed man, and two of them, catching him unaware sprang on him from behind. They held him secure while a third Indian took a hatchet and smashed in his skull. These three then dragged the murdered man to a hut, bound him to the floor with takes and cut off his heau.

Those at vthe post regarded the two mounted police- | men as heroes, for all were of the onin- ion that the two brave riders of the plains would fall a sacrifice to the fury of the Indans, who had grown blood- thirsty.

Spectal Dispatch to The Call. NEVADA CITY, April 26.—Trem bling from weakness, shivering from cold, his features wan and pinched, his hat rim slouched down over his rest- | piercing eyes, and his body swathed in a red buggy robe to keep the nipping mountain air, the | manacled midnight assassin, who with- gut warning shot to death Policeman Kilroy twenty-six days ago, presented an uncanny and grewsome spectacle as Nevada County Courthouse shortly be- fore 5 o'clock this morning. Supported on one side by Sheriff Getchell and on | the other by Sheriff Veale of Contra | Costa, with Captain Nihelt bringing up | Murderer Moore began the | ascent of the stairs to the jail floor of the temple of justice. It emed a veritable death march and the gray, | shddowy dawn light accentuated its | wierdness. The prisoner was half led and half carried, for his kne at times | collapsed like those of a craven death his kind. Once in the barred ante-room of the moment- that the blanket was unrolled from around him and the handcuffs He took the situation with the stolidity of an Apache, except of the mouth. Then the heavy double doors to murderers’ alley swung back and the new arrival went in, moving painfully and as if he left all hope be- hind. « He was assigned to one of the steel tanks and no sooner had he en- tered it than he flung himself on the cot and in five minutes was sound asleep. He was awakened at 9 o'clock for breakfast, which he ate voraciously. This afternoon Moore was taken by District Attorney Powers’ order hefore Justice Coghlan, who set the prelimi- nary examination for 10 o'clock Friday morning. As he passed to and from the court room through the busiest streets of the city, with Sheriffs Get- chell and Veale, the only officers in charge, a thousand people quickly con- gregated along the route or followed the trio. But there was no breach of the peace, no disposition shown to create any disturbance. At every station on the railroad from Martinez to Colfax the train was be- sieged by hundreds of peovple seeking a sight of the bad man of Little Deer Creek. In the drive from Colfax the party saw only two men, and that was after their arrival at this city. When the vehicle was passing the corner of Broad and Pine streets where the mur- der was committed, Moore straightened up in his seat, gave a quick glange to- ward the spot where Kilroy was killed. and with a perceptible shudder sank back again. At the depot in Sacramento a hand- some bougquet was handed to Moore by the following: ve modest violets and roses bloom- ing. Love and good wishes.” On the other side of the card was the name ‘‘Jennie Campbell, 1617 N.” The name was printed in type and the rest was written. Moore says Jennie Camp- bell is an old friend of his. Moore preserves an imperturbable si- lence, not having spoken a word since his arrival here, except to say ‘yes” or “no” to the officers. At Colfax this morning he told a newspaper man that Kilroy struck him on the head with a club, and then he shot. He also said that Tred Eilerman and Larry Mullen, as well as “Bob” Gates, saw the blow and the killing. Eilerman and Mullen deny this pointblank. 3 Sheriff Getchell to-day issued orders that no flowers be taken to Moora's cell, and that even the reporters sha'l not see him till he regains his strenzth. To-day the point was raised that Sheriff Veale is not entitled to the $1300 prize money offered for Moore, but that it should go to Farmer James Ken- nerly of McAvoy, Contra Costa County, who put the Sheriff on the trail. This contention is based on an alleged ruling of the Supreme Court in the Weber murder case of San Jose. Chief Lees caught the murderer, but the man who posted the Chief put in a claim for the money, and finally got it, on the ground that the officer was amply compensuted by his salary. “99" Cleveland bicycles, $40 and $50; 99" | Crescents, $3.

Mayor Ashbridge, the Council | committee on the unveiling, and a| number of distinguished citizens, met | the warship below -the cHy and es- corted her to the anchorage. A large fleet of steamers followed in her wake, ing whistles constantly, to which noise was added the welcome from fac- tory bells and whistles on both sides of the Delaware River. | When the procession reached the | League Island Navy-yard the Raleigh fired a salute of fifteen guns for Ad- | miral Casey, commandant of the yard, | to which the navy-yard responded. A brief stop was made, during which the Raleigh’s commander went ashore and paid his respects to Admiral Casey and €Captain Clarke, the captain of the yard. G The President and party will arrive to-morrow morning. Following the un- veiling the President will attend a ban- quet at the Union League and later in | the evening will attend a public meet- | ing at the Academy of Music. He will make no speeches. The military display to-morrow will consist of the National Guard of Penn- sylvania, crew of the Raleigh, marines | and sailors from League Island, several | New Jersey regiments and a number of private militar organizations. On Friday there will be a demonstration on the river, when President McKinley, in honor of the Raleigh and her crew, will pay a visit to Captain Coghlan. Mrs. Grant arrived here shortly after 7 o'clock. She s accompanied by Miss Rosemayer rtoris, who is her granddaughter, and who will unveil the statue, and Miss Coffey. They were met at the station of the Pennsylvania Railway by a ladies’ committee, of which Mrs. Charles Harrison, wife of | the provost of Pennsylvania, is chair- man. | Soon after Mayor Ashbridge and the | Council committee boarded the Raleigh | to-day, while the gallant little vessel was on her way up the river, the Mayor and committee went into Captain Coghlan’s cabin, where the captain. the officers and the crew were formally welcomed to Philadelphia Dby the Mayor. In responding Captain Cogh- lan said: 'Mr. Mayor and members of the com- mittee: We appreciate the spirit in which you greet us, and thank vou for it. I do not personally need to be told of the kindness of the people of this city, for I lived here several years, and remember their kindness, The invita- tion to take part in the unveiling of the Grant statue is gratifying, and as to the celebration of Dewey day, we will regard that as a privilege, for we feel that we are almost a part of Dewey. As to the invitation to dine to-night with the committee, we accent that—not be- cause we want the dinner. but because we want to be with you.” Captain Coghlan and all his officers came ashore shortly after 6 o'clock. The commander of the Raleigh was driven to the Stratford Hotel. where he greeted his wife, and he shortly | afterward went to the Hotel Walton. where they were tendered a dinner by the ' Council committee. The entire party later on attended a theater. GREAT UNEASINESS IN THE TRANSVAAL While Kruger's Defenses Are Being Prepared England’s Army Is Steadily Augmented. NEW YORK, April 26—The Journal prints the following from Capetown: There is renewed uneasiness over the situ- | ation in the Transvaal. President Kru- ger's general {n chief, General Joubert, is inspecting the frontiers and selecting places suitable for entrenchments. More rigid inspection of the military has also been ordéred. Kruger, as he | intimated a month ago, evidently is ex-| pecting hostilities with England.” Dutch- men are uneasy over the results of the petition to Joseph Chamberlain, Eng- land’s Colonial Minister, signed by 21,000 English residents in the Transvaal, and setting forth their grievances. Chamber- | lain's action, it is believed, will mark a crisis in English-Dutch- relations. The British army here is being steadily augmented. | Court of | shown | government ind DREYFUS CASE CAUSES FIGHTS Rival Meetings Followed by Encounters. Dispatch to The Call.
