SAN JOSE, Nov. 16.—A frightful acci- dent occurred at the Guadalupe quick- sllver mine, a couple of miles west of Al- maden, shortly after 6 o'clock last even- ing, in which Fred Cunzle, the engineer, lost his life. Cunzie, who was only 1i years of age, had been oiling the shaft. In some manner a set screw caught in his clothing and he was whirled off his feet and dragged into the machinery. Parts 57 TS hody were crushed to.a pulp. Both of his feet were severed. The dead boy was a nephew of Superintendent Cunzie of the mine, and had been employed about Lue place for some time. neceptio—n to New Pastors.

Brasher, 1317 Four- teenth street. During the excitement the family started to throw the household furniture out of the windows of the burn- ing house. Along with a lot of bedcloth- ing went a_ purse containing 3250 which Brasher had carefully hidden in a mx. tress. Before ie had a chance to get his hidden gold the mattress had been flung into the street. The loss was not discovered natil the firemen had quenched the flames. Brasher aroused the nelghborhood 'lth his lamentations. The outcries brought ndent man much assistance, and s of cxcited treasure hunters joined with him in his search for the money that had been thrown away.

Trouble between the two riders originated over a complaint lodged with the judges earlier in the week by Coburn, the latter stating that Bullman threatened to put him over the fence. After the Diderot- Vulcain finish yesterday Bullman says Coburn *joshed” him, whereupon he be- came incensed and let go a right-hander that made most accurate connections, The matter was reported fc ‘he judges, who, after Investigating the affair, sus- pended Bullman for thirty racing days. He will not even be allowed to ride for Sam Hildreth, to whom h- is under con- tract, and during the time the ruling is in effect will be excluded from the course. This looks like severe punishment for a trivial offense, still turf officials must see that proper decorum is observed among riders, owners and trainers. Bullman is the star rider here with a large following of bettors, and the whole thing is re- grettable. The severest sufferer, though, ie Owner Hildreth, who has a big stable of cracks, and is now left without a rider and no available material in sight. The track was in a very sloppy condi- tion from the heavy rainfall, confusing the “dope” students and handicappers to | a considerable extent. First Call and Lavator were the only winning favorites. Although it had been passed around as the real thing, as good as 14 to 5 could be had about First Call, favorite for the first event. Kiley had the mount and by hard urging struck the wire winner, a nose betore St. Anthody. Grey Rob Hn- ished third, astet leading to the paddock. Lavator at odds on around post time, only galloped to beat the small consign- ment nuruns in the seven-furlong run following. Wyoming made his first a; pearance this Season, running a good sec- ond and three lengths in advance of Monda. There was an awful scramble to get aboard Fonsovannah, one of the eight Starters for the next number, a sprint over six furlongs. J. Daly was never able to get him even close to the leaders. In a driving finish and after she had led from the start, Nora Ives downed Maud Ferguson a neck on the wire. Dominick plioted the winner. Green Morris scratched Modrine from the handicap, leaving only three to face the barrier. Hlldreth’s Vulcaln, carry-| ing 114 pounds, was installed an_even money favorite, later drifting to 3 to 3 on a repon that he was not partial to muddy footing.

CONVICTS BREAK JAL IN KANSAS Guard Surrenders at the I Muzzle of a Dummy Revelver. —_— LEAVENWORTH, Kans., Nov. 16.—One successful es- capes on record was made by three com- victs at the State Penitentlary at Lan- | sing this afternoon. The aash for liberty | for one, at least, was brief, as he fell | with a bullet through his head from Dep- uty Warden Thompson's revolver before he could gain cover. The convicts—Sam Smith, under death | sentence; E. F. Estell and Ben Cravens— | during odd moments in the coal mine had { fashioned a “dummy’” revolver out of wood, covering the same with tin foil. This afternoon the guard at the bottom of the pit suddenly found himself looking into the muzzle of what he thought was a 32-caliber revolver. At the same time he was commanded ~hands up.: Tue guard was compelled to give the signal to “lift up.‘ and on reaching the top the quartet R the top guard unchal- lenged e one accompanying the con- victs belns afraid to give the alarm.

Charles H. Parkhurst says deathbed re- pentances are slways discredited. Virtue that proceeds from fright is no symptom | of change at heart. This panic stricken condition of Tammany's chief will enly give new vigor to concerted movements that are being made for his overthrow. ““Croker’s proposition to co-operate with other organizations of the city for the in- vestigation of the vice question is a cow- ardly bluff. I had always given him cred- it for having the courage of his depravity, but by pretending to be virtuous he has resigned his iast claim to admiration and shown himself to be as much of a pol- troon as he is a knave.” Bishop Henry C. ter has addressed the following to Mavor Van Wyck “'I protest with all my power against the condition of things, in which vice is not only tolerated. but shielded and encour- aged. by those whose sworn duty it is to repress and discourage it. “'I protest in the name of girls and their mothers who have in them every instinet of virtue and purity. Their sensibility to insult and outrage is as keen as those who live in your household or mine. | “1 protest against the habitual insult, persistent menace and unutterabie defiling | contacts to which day by day, because o the base complicity of the poiice of New York with the lowest forms of vice and crime, they are subjected. “I call upon you, sir, to save these peo- ple, who in every real way are committed to 'your charge. from a living hell, de- fiing. deadly. damning. to which the érim- inal supineness of constituted authorities set for the defense of decency and good order threatens to doom us. ““The situation which confronts us in this metropolis of America Is one of com- mon and open notoriety. and of such a nature as may well make us a byword among the nations of the world.” Richard Croker said to-day: “The one man most responsibie for the existence of ork City to-day is Dr. Park- vice in New hurst. He scattered vice all over the city, and even into Brooklyn. If. it had net been for him there would not have been any cries for relief from the East Side, West Side or any other part of the city. “Instead of discrediting the efforts of othe.r_ people he ought to look to his own worl “If. however, any police captain. com- missioner or district leader is' found to be protecting or npholdln vice he should be removed from his position and punished.” Competing Gas Companies.
