W. McCurdy i;ts Instant Death in the Elcctric Light Works at San Diego. | Spectal Dispatch to The Call: SAN DIEGO, Aug. 19.—E. W. McCurdy. the assistant engineer at the electric light works, was killed this morning be- tween 1 and .2 o'clock in a manner that at present is unknown, but probably by falling against the dynamo in such a man- ner as to receive the shock of 7600 voits of electrieity. At a little after 2 o'clock Mr. Lemon, who is on the night shift at the gas works near by, noticed that the machinery at the electric light plant was running rap- idly, but that the city lights were out. The moon had made its arpearance- an hour before and the electric light plant should have. been closed down at that { time. He hurried over to the electric plant and found McCurdy lving on the | fioor dead, the dynamo which supplied the power for the city lights burning and the engine running at accelerated speed. He_ telephoned for Superintendent rk | ana shut down the engine. When the su- | perintendent arrived they made an inves- tigation, reaching the conclusion that Mc- Curday had stumbled upon the dynamo and had been thrown by the force of the shock against the engine, displacing the governing belt. McCurdy's body was still warm. The hands were badly burned, showing that they had come in contaet with the poles on the dynamo. The body was lying about twenty feet from the dynamo, but nis hat near the machine, showin, | that it was there that he had the shock. The throwing off of the gov- erning belt had allowed the engine to run | wild and the increased speed had burned | out the dynamo, The material loss to | the company will be close to: an the city will be without street lights for four or five days, or until a new arma- | ture can be secured from San Francisco. McCurday, who was a native of Iowa, came to the electric light company from National City, where he was the engineer | for the citric’acid factory. He leaves a wife, but no children. An inquest will be held to-morrow morning. ALLIES WELCOMED BY THE CHINES: recelves Spectal Cable to The Call and New York Her- ald.

ROME, Aug. 19.~To-day being the feast of 8t. Joachim, the Pope's patron saint, there was a large gathering at the Vati= can of cardinais, bishops and presidents of societies. The Pope, who was in ex- cellent health and spirits, spoke at some length regarding matters of Catholic in- terest and then with a complimentary in- troduction invited Archbishop Ireland to address the assembly on matters in Amer- ica and relations of the outer world to the holy see. Archbishop Ireland, who was frequently applauded during his speech of twenty minutes, spoke glowingly of the fidelity of American Catholics to the Roman Church and the holy see. _ He described liberty under the Amerfcan flag and set forth the necessity of the Pope as the head of Christendom being=free and in- dependent to any one civil power, *so as to be, in fact, as well as of right, the sovereign teacher and ruler of all nations and peoples, without dependency on any | special nation.” The address gave visible. satisfaction. Monseignor lIreland had a final audience with tne Pope on Sunday. He left Rome this evening. e NO YANKEE TROOPS TO LAND AT SHANGHAI Spectal Dispatch to The Call b WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—Unless condi- tions at Shanghal should become such as to endanger American lives and property, United States troops will not be landed. “This Government,” said a high official of the administration this afternoon, “claims and will exercise the right to land troops alone or in concert with the other powers at any point in China where American lives or American interests may be in danger. Since the United States claims this right for herself, she could not deny it to others nor question the right of Great Britain to land forces in Shanghai to protect British interests. If the conditions should become such that American interests could only be ade- quately projected by the presence of American troops, they would doubtless be landed, but the United States would not join with the other nations in Jdanding a force at Shanghai simply because Great Britain had seen fit to do so. The same statement applies to the situation at Niu- chwang. While the United States will avoid getting into any complications at Shanghai, the officials of the administra- tion recognize that the conditions there are such as seriously to endanger the con- tinued harmonious action of the powers. This Government will not, by any act, indicate that Great Brituin is suspected of any motive other than that of affording protection to foreign interests in landing troops, but it is plain that some of the others powers suspect her of plans to ac- quire either territory or predominating in- fluence in the Yangtse Valley, or so pre- tend, in order to justify themselves in €arrying out territorial designs which they may have elsewhere in China.” No news was received at the State or Navy Departments to-day throwing any light on the Shanghal situation. The New Orleans, Princeton and Castine are at Shanghal, and naval officers say that the number of vessels there will probably be kept at three to show the foreign Gov- ernments that the United States, though it will not land troops, is not indifferent to events at Shanghai. The authorities understand that the French will land a strong force of troops Immediately and that the Germans will disembark several regiments next month. So far as known here, Japan will Russta. 1kely 't do go. 0 tro0P8, nor Is STEEL WORKERS' WAGES Association Officers Will Call for a Vote of Lodges on Question.

WASHINGTON, Aus. 19.—Amid scenes of impressive solemnuity, and in the pres- | ence of the President of the United | States, members of the Cabinet, officers | of the army and navy, the Embassadors, | Ministers of foreign countries and a great | concourse of people from ecivil life, me- | morial services for the late King Hum- bert of Italy were held at St. Matthew's Catholic Church at 11 o'clock to-day. The | announcement of-the services was made by the Italian Embassador, Baron Fava, | and with the co-operation of the State Depargment the event was given a dis- tinctly official character. The foreign | representatives were in full diplomatic uniform, and these, with the brilHant uniforms of the British, German, Aus- trian and othet military attaches and of the American generals and admirals, | gave a touch of brilliant coloring to the | solemn pageantry. The church had been decorated elabo- rately for the occasion. Around the | sanctuary and on all sides rose a mass of | palms and foliage plants, while the beau- tiful white marble altar stood out from a nest of palms. Immediately in front of the chancel rail stood the catalfalque, a counterpart of that in which the dead monarch was re- cently laid to rest in Rome. Over it was | thrown a_ heavy black pall, edged with laurels ard gala leaves, tled with flow- | ing ribbons of red, white and green, the | colors of Italy. At the head and foot of the casket tall candelabra burned and | the morning sun, coming through the | chancel window, féll athwart this somber | memorial. A s'perb wreath of purple | asters and roses, sent by the British Em- bassy, rested alongside the casket. Ncted Men Present. Baron Fava, in the full uniform of his diplomatic rank and wearing the decora- shortly before his death, stood at the main entrance of the church and directed the distinguished arrivals. He was as. sisted by Marquis Romano and the mili- tary attaches of the Embassy. Among | the arrivals was the Chinese Minister, Wu Ting Fang, in bright Oriental silks | and scarlet turban, accompanied by sev- eral of the members of his staff. The Spanish_Minister, in full diplomatic uni- | form of black and gold, followed soon | after and was given a seat with the Chinese reprasentative. Back of them sat | the Japanese Minister, his handsome uni- | form set oft by a vivid green sash across | vestments his breast and a sweeping white plume on his chapeau. Germany was repre- sented by Baron Speck von Sternberg, German Charge d’Affaires, accompanied by the German military and naval at- taches in uniform; France by M. Thie- baut, Charge d’Affaires, and M. Boeufve: Great Britaln by, Minister Lowther and Captain Bradley of the*British Royal Navy; Russia by M. Routhkowski, while the other countries of Europe, Seuth and Central America were represented by their several Ministers and Secretaries. Across the aisle from the diplomatie corps the news were reserved for distin- guished American officers and civil offi- clals, and among those present were Ad- mirals Melville, Endicott and Terr{. Brig- adier Generals John M. Wilson, Luding- ton and Weston, the staff officers of Lieu- tenant General Miles and scores of lesser officials. The Italian societies and asso- ciations were given seats at the side of the church near the altar. The rear of the church was gpened to the general pub- lic and was filled to overflowing at an early hour. Services at St. Matthew’s. 11 o'clock President McKinley and the members of his Cabinet arrivea at the church. Baron Fava m:pcd for- ward and received the President, esco: rt- ing him to a seat immediately In front ofthe catatalque, walking down the mid- dle aisle. With the President were Sec- retary Hitchcock, Postmaster General Smith, Acting Secretary of State Adee | and the President's secretary, Mr. Cor- telyou. As the party took their seats strains of the organ floated through the edifice and the black and white robed acolytes led the procession of priests to the altar. It had been expected that Car- dinal Gibbons would officlate, but his ab- sgence in the South prevented his being resent. The celebrant of the mass was ev. Father Barth, assisted by Rev. ther Lee as deacon and Rev. Father Kervick as_sub-deacon. = Father Chantell of Georgetown TUni- v ity was also in the sanctuary. The service consisted of high mass, the usual sermon being omitted. At the close of the mass the priests put aside their white for those of black, and de- scending from the sanctuary moved about the casket, sprinkling it with holy water, praying for the repose of the soul of the dead Ring and chanting the “Requiescat in Pace.” At the close of the service the Presi- dential party withdrew, followed by the deputies and military officers. Many of those present remained in the church to view the catafalque and to carry away a leaf or bud as a memento of the cere- mony.
