Concerning the political and commercial | future of the archipelago, Aguinaldo was | reserved. He said it was hardly time to | dis it while in what he considered to {be captivity.

Aguinaldo says that he | knows of no enemies, needs no protec- | tion and is willing to go out unattended | if permitted to do so. He is pleased witu the municipal law conferring full local self-government. Concerning the provin- an elective officer, Aguinaldo was uncom- | municative.

DENVER, May 17.—The suit against Sam Strong, a wealthy Cripple Creek mine owner, for $100,000 damages, which has been on trial in the District Court in this city for over three weeks, ended tkis afternoon in a verdict for the defend- ant. The plaintiffs were E. J. Giddings, William Lennox and others, who held a | bond and lease on the Strong mine when the shafthouse and machinery were de- stroyed by an explosion in 1894. At that time the explosion was believed to have been caused by striking miners, and two men were subsequently convicted and served sentences in prison for the crime. At ihe trial of the damage suit testimony was given to the effect that Strong hired men to blow up the shaft- bcuse for the purpose of deterring the p'aintiffs £ cm completing the purchase of the mime, which, it was alleged, he had discovered to be worth much more than the price at which he had agreed to sell. This testimony apparently was not credited by the jury. A suit was also filed by the Strong Min- ing Company against Strong on the same grounds and for the same amount of dam- ages, but it will probably not be pressed, as the witnesses would be the same as at the trial which has just closed. NSl SR HOUSE OF POLICEMAN DESTROYED BY DYNAMITE Bomb Placed Under the Dwelling and { Occupants Are Blown Qut | of Bed. ‘ AKRON, Ohio, May 17.—A two-story frame dwelling at 220 Johnson street, in East Akron, occupied by Willlam J. Bru- | ner, a policeman, was wrecked by an ex- | plosion of dynamite early to-day. Bruner, | his wife Elizabeth, his son George, 9 years | old, and Harold, a baby 18 months old, were in the house at the time. They were | blown out of bed and buried under the de- | bris, but were not seriously injured. The | wing of the house where Bruner, his wife | and baby slept was reduced to kindling | wood. | The police believe that the dynamiting was an attempt at revenge upon Police- | vested by a gang of firebugs, and this of- | ficer has been most active in apprehend- | ing its member: . | SAN BERNARDINO, May 17.—The was the parade of livestock, entered in competition for prizes at the agricultural ir, which marched up Third street to F | and countermarched back to the - THEWHITE FLAG. INERS ESCAPE A FALLING CAR Accident at a Mine in Utah Terrorizes the ‘Workmen. LT SALT LAKE, Utah, May 17.—A special to the Deseret News from Park City, Utah, says that an accident that nearly cost the lives of a dozen men and resulted in several thousand dollars’ damage ‘oc- curred at shaft No. 3 of the Ontarfo mine to-day. A %axluad of ore was being hoisted from the 1000-foot level. Through some misun- derstanding Engineer Densmore thought he was hoisting from the 1500-foot level, and when the 100-foot run was completed the car, instead of being stopped, contin- ued to go on, with the result that it shot through the sheaves with a force that | shook the surrounding building an® broke the engine. The disabled car came crashing down to the spot where a number of workmen had Just been standing and who had run for their lives as the car shot by them. All escaped except one miner, whose head was badly cut. Ingress and egress to the mine was shut off except through the manway and the 600-foot tunnel, and 1t was hours before the miners below suc- ceeded In making their way to the sur- face. The accident will throw $0 men out of employment for some time. SPAIN'S YOUNG KING REVIEWS HIS TROOPS With Weyler and a Brilliant Suite Alfonso Witnesses the Grand Maneuvers.

ST. PAUL, May 17.—The Supreme Court to-day filed a street railway decision, said to be the first in its line by any Supreme Court in the United States. The ques- tion whether the street car companies are guilty of negligence when they attempt to operate their cars in time of strikes was injected by the District Judge at Du- luth in his charge to the jury, and upon that question the decision of the appeal case has turned. The Supreme Court holds that, as to its passengers, the company is not liable for negligence in attempting to operate cars during a strike, unless the conditions are iauch that they cannot guard against vio- ence. —_—— Portuguese Ladies Organize.

Lawson Are at Outs Over the Big Race NEW YORK, May 17.—The Mail and Express says: Correspondence between Thomas W. Lawson of Boston, owner of the ninety-foot yacht Independence, and the America’s cup committee has reached such an acute stage of bitterness on the part of the Boston man that the commit- tee has decided to break off all negotia- tions and to bar that boat not only from the trial races to select a defender to meet the Shamrock II but from all other events over which the New York Yacht Club will have jurisdictio The corre- spondence has been turned over to the printers and will be given to the newspa- pers probably to-morrow. The decision not to permit the Inde- pendence tp race in the trials against the Constitution and the Columbia was reached by the cup commitiee at a special meeting held Wednesday in the office of Mr. Belmont. It is a long standing rule of the club that no yacht shall be eligible to com- pete in any of the club’s events unless h!er owner be a member of the organiza- tion.

Soeclal Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, 146 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, May- 17.—Figures have been compiled here showing that the total loss to the Government of the United States from its foundation to this time fromr defalcations by officials amounts to about $16,000,000. For twenty vears after the organization of the Government there was not a single defalcation. From 1820 to 1840 shortages in the accounts of Gov- ernment officials became numerous, and from 1840 to. there was a very marked increage. ears-from 1860 to 1870 ex- ceeded any lar period, as the oppor- tunities. for embezzlements were greater. The Postoffice Department has been siiice the beginning of the Government the most opulent field of the defaulter. Shortages in acecounts 'of postmasters from 1820 to 1880, when the system of in- spection became exiremely rigid, were of frcguent occurrences. In most cases, however, the full amount of the defalca- tlon was collected from bondsmen. In about 10 per cent of these defalcations, however, the bonds proved to be worth- less and Uncle Sam became the loser. Shortages for small amounts were usually paid promptly, the bondsmen doing it, but when it came to settling for large amounts it was more difficult. In some cases men who have been on bonds of of- ficials who have defaulted subsequently have money coming to them from the Government, but it is applied to their old indebtedness. In the case of a major wha served during the Spanish war in a vol- unteer regiment his entire salary for all the time he was in the service was thus applied.

Edwin F. Uhl, former Assistant Secre- tary of State and Embassador to Ger- many under the Cleveland administra- tion, died shortly after noon to-day. He had been ill nearly a year, suffering from 2 complication of diseases, among them Bright’s disease. Edwin F. Uhl was born in 1841 near Avon Springs, N. Y. Going to Michigan when he was a boy, he finished the course in the public schools and graduated from the University of Michigan at the age of 20. Uhl then located in Ypsilanti and en- tered a law firm. In 1871 he moved to Grand Rapids, where he built up a splen- did law pracfice and became prominent in the Democratic party. He was elected Mayor of Grand Rapids on thé Demo- cratic ticket in 18%0 and served two years. At the beginning of President Cleveland’s second term UhI was appolnted Assistant Secretary of State, and during part of his incumbency _he was in charge of the d partment. President Cleveland later of- fered Uhl the post of Embassador to Ger- many and it wés accepted, Uhl serving until President McKinley appointed his successor. While in Germany Uhl took a decided stand against ‘‘free sflver’” and withdrew his support from the Demo- cratic party in the campaign of 1895. This greatly ected his party standing in Grand_ Kapids, and when he returned home from Germany he retired from poli- tics. Uhl was married in 1865, and is sur- vived by a widow and three daughters. —_—— John P. Loomis. KANSAS CITY, May 17.—John P.

Drunken revelry in one apartment keeps the whole house awake. BY F. EE MULHOLLAND. HE crack brown colt Articulate tried the temper of his mettle with Yellowtail in a five-furlong sprint | at Oakland track yesterday, the meeting of the pair drawing a full house. Yellowtail went to the post a 9 to 20 favorite and won with Ruiz back-pedal- ing, white Articulate, finishing as if he had a punctured tire, just nosed Mike Strauss out for the place. In extenuation of the ragged showing made by the three- year-old it can be sald he appeared under most unfavorable circumstances. Accord- ing to the conditions the weights were raised fifteen pounds above the scale, and his 137 pounds bothered Yellowtall but lit- tle. Besides Articulate has been on the ailing list for some days, suffering from a cough, which would not tend to whet his speed. So badly off was he reported that not a few of the books laid 1 to 3 that he ‘would not show. ‘With Yellowtail, Billy Randall's Gaunt- let. shared the honor of being, the only winning favorites. But this does not mean that the talent was treated badly, for Nonie, Carlo and Jim Hale all had hosts of friends. Maurice Kane, the owner of Nonfe, win- ner of the opening four-furlong dash for maiden two-year-olds, made a mild “kill- ing.” It was the first time out for the filly, but Kane had the temerity to get aboard, forcing the odds from 25 down to 10. Johnny Sullivan had the leg .up, and merely wading through her fleld the last quarter rolled in ahead of Lento and Gyp- sy Boy. Dan Collins, the favorite, is a faint-hearted youngster, again backing up.. For the second maiden two-year<old number Carlo, from Willlam Murry’s sta- ble, was installed = favorite. The colt warmed up very sore, causing his price to recede to 5 to 2, and the smart ones un- loaded on the Burns & Waterhouse en- try, Armado. Under flerce riding Conley on Carlo caught B. C. Greene below th® addock and driving hard passed the udges two lengths to the good. Armado acted rank, and a delay at the post did not improve his disposition. Such a_warm tip permeated the ring and paddock on Malay that those who fancied Gauntlet got as good as 7 to & against their money. Malay was found wanting, for Ransch on Gauntlet took the lead when ready, winning very cleverly in 2:08. Stromo ran a fair third, eight lengths before Vohicer. In the hustle to back Vasallo to win the two-year-old dash at four and a half fur- longs everything else was seemingly neglected except possibly Royalty. At the start Alexander rushed Escalante, a 12 to 1 shot, off in front, and although Royalty was _desperately urged by Bassinger the outsider reached home first by four lengths. Never a fast beginner, Vasallo was early interfered with, gunning fourth. Another favorite was bowled over in the concluding six-and a half furlong run. On the strength of two previous wins Wardman came out g 3 to 2 chance and [ e e et e . GLAINY OF ITATA 10 BE SETTLED Commissioners Ready to Pass on Celebrated Case. WASHINGTON, May 17.—The celebrated Itata case, involving a claim of $320,000 against the Government of the United States, Is about to be determined by the Chilean Claims Commission. The com- mission has cleared its entire docket of cases, with the exception of this one, which, by reason of its importance, was left until the last for special considera- tion. An adjournment has been taken to permit the exchange of briefs and the commission will reconvene on June 8 to consider this case, the decision of which will be rendered before the dissolution of the body on June 14. The sailing of the Itata from California with a cargo of arms and ammunition for Chile and her subsequent surrender to the United States cruiser Charleston con- stituted one of the most stirring events of the Chilean trouble fn 1891. As set forth in the official papers submitted to the commission, the Itata was chartered by the provisional government of Chile to transport small arms for the land forces under that provisional government, which is held to have been the lawful gov- ernment of Chile at that time. The Itata proceeded to San Diego, Cal., and soon after took on & cargo consisting of 250 cases of rifles and 200 cases of ammuni- tion. The shipment was made at a point near the island of San Clemente on May 8, 1891 Just before this the steamer was board- ed by one Spaulding, said to be an officer of the United States, who had come to fake possession of the vessel. He was set ashore by the officers of the Itata on the ground that he was unable td”exhibit any authority as an officer of this vern- ment. The Itata then took her cargo of arms to Iquique. After she started Amer- ican ships were sent in chase o hér and a famous race down through the Paclfic red. %t the same time Admiral McCann, com- mander-in-chief of the American forces in Chile, notified the Chilean Government that the Itata, in procuring her cargo of arms within the waters of the United s, was guilty of a violation of our gg?lttern.lny la.v;“;. The document adds: “Upon these representations of Admiral McCann and because of the demands.of the Government of the United States, ac- companied as they were by the presence GAMES ..

Girl, Formero, Jim Me- Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN DIEGO, May 17.—The water has been turned into the immense canals of the Imperial Company through the head- sates at Hanlon's heading, and it is ex- pected that the flow will reach the town of Imperial by next Wednesday. A special dispatch to the Union to that effect was received last evening. George Chaffee came down from the heading, which is on the west bank of the Colorado River several miles below Yuma, and reports that the first water through the regular floodgates of the canal was turned In yesterday morning at 11 o’clock. | While the headgates have been building the water was allowed to reach the canal while the dredger was doing its work cut- ting a way into the bed of the old Salton River. That slough has now been closed and all of the water will be turned i through the gates. The big canal has a carryhg) capacity for sufficient water to irrigate 230,000 acres of land, and as there is about that much land waiting for the water it will not be long befare two parallel canals will be constructed with almost equal capacity. The company has unbounded faith in the project and has constructed its works on the theory that success is certain. The soil, of unknown depth, is rich almost be- yond comparison, being formed of the sed- iment which ‘has been brought down by the Colorado River through countless ages. The immense growth of wild grasses during the short seasons of rain and over- flow, which occur sometimes yearly and sometimes every two or three years, Eove’ what the soil is capable of produc- Between 3000 and 5000 acres will be plant- ed to summer crops at once. Some of this will be seeded to alfalfa on land which can be easily flooded and where it is known that nothing more than a seratch~ ing of the soil is needed to make it ready for seeding. The purpose of this planting will be to see how quickly a crop of hay can be obtained from the new land for the sustenance of the large number of horses and mules in the vatious ca.mE which are at work constructing the sul sidiary canals and laterals. A carload of sorghum seed is going out to the land early next week, and several other cars of grain for similar purposes are being contracted for. 5 OF INTEREST TO THE COAST.
