Grand Opera-House. The Frawley people are not altogether happy in the uitra-English comedy, “Lord and Lady Algy,” which was given at the Grand last evening. This sporty y has never been a favorite with local theater-goers, and even the splendid cast Miller gave it Jast season could not make the play go. In the second act Frawley came out unusually strong and did some splendid comedy work. The second act is the big act of the play, and it all rests on the shoulders of poor inebriated Lord Algy. Frawley was equal, however, to all the demands of the situafion and covered himself with glory. As Lady Algy Miss Van Buren was not happlly cast. She looked extremel pretty, though. The play is very hand- somely mounted. It will run throughout 4 the week. Central.

Lilllan Elliott and James Corrigan | as La Frochard and son contributed all the mirth which an otherwise somber play possesses, and many hisses testified that the villainous parts were in good hands. Robert Cummings as the Chevaller de Vaudrey was stagy, as usual, and Willard Blackmore as Plerre, the crippled brother, played his part bravely. The play is well staged. Orpheum. Honors at the Orpheum this week are being gathered in about equally by Rich- ard Jose and Lucille Saunders. Le- febre’s saxophone quartet, which adds to its fame by rendering a sextet from | “Lucia”—four doing the work of six, and as good as six do it—is also winning the admiration of the audience. The selec- | tions produced in all their fullness by | Jose are rounded out as only perfect sup- | port can round them by the accompani- | ments of Professor Rosner. Lucille Saun- | ders is likewise favored by the orchestra, though her sympathetic contralto voice needs but small support. Powell, the magician, lives «up to his name. His trunk “trick” places him among the fore- most in his profession. Louise Thorn- dyke Boucicault and Herbert H. Pattee appear again this week in la week’s sketch, “A Proper Impropriety.” The Cragg company of acrobats, ““The Four Otts” in their hilarious absurdity, “The Stffart Set,” and last, but interesting, the biograph pictures, complete a bill of un- usual merit. | Fischer’s Concert House. The Paloma quartet, composed of Lily Laws, Ethel Carroll, Millle Murray and | Eugenia Breitengross, made a great hit at Fischer's last night in their Spanish and Tyrolean songs. Marietta North and some clever.children were well received in “Wanda’s Aspirations,” a musical farce. Joe Edmunds proved to be an amusing Irish comedian, and Henry Bergers gave a daring and graceful trapeze performance. Others on an interesting programme were Coleman and Mexis, sensational sharp- shooters; Fannie Raymond, the pleasing balladist; P. A. Dunsworth, the popular tenor, and Camelia and Amelita, Spanish | { dancers.

Ameta, the spectacular dancer, made her reappearance. Robert A. Nome rendered several £0los on the saxophone. Reynard, the ventriloquist, and Hayves brothers, comedians and dancers, were also good numbers. ! e California.

My hearers became very much interest- ed, and by the bankers who were present I was asked why this country and France could not be connected by a transporta- tion line. The result was that I had a conference with the bankers and they agreed to pledge $20,000,000 for the ad- vancement and building of a railway from Circle City to Vladivostok. The amount was subsequently increased to $30,000,000, which represents substantially the sub- scription of the Bank of France. “After due consideration it was agreed the capitalization should be $200,000.000. Of this amount we have to raise $50,000,000 'n America. John D. Rockefeller has prom- ised me $10,000,000 for a scheme of this sort, and thus you may see that the American financial backing is fn good hands. ‘Will Appeal to the Czar. “The work of financing the company would be in the hands of a French noble- man of great prominence and popularity.

Roblin, Premler of Manitoba, charged his partner in the cattle business, D. W. Mills, with the theft of $16,000. Roblin charges that dur- ing his absence in the East Mills sold sev eral hundred head of cattle owned by them jointly and kept the proceeds. Mills had §2500 when arrested. He has been one of the best-known cattlemen in Western Canada for twenty years past. The case was continued. Bulgarians Burn Five Turks.

Revolutionists in Both Dis- turbed Countries Are Secretly Aided. st P IR Idiberals Are Also Declared to Be Re- " celving Considerable Moral Sup- port From Nicaragua and Ecuador. il i Special Dispatch to The Call. KINGSTON, Jamalca, Aug. 26.—War al- ready exists between Colombia and Vene- zuela, according to South American eth- ics. A leading officlal of the isthmus said to The Call correspondent: and there will be none, for none is neces- sary. Venezuelan Liberals openly aid the Colombian rebels, and now the Colombian Government in turn assists President Cas- tro's enemies in their attempt to over- throw him. It is claimed that they will succeed in this, and then the Government will_give attention to Nicaragua and pun- ish President Zclaya.” The Colombian warship General Pinzon, formerly the Namouna, is still at Saba- nflla with General Alban on board. The vessel cannot sail without more officers. When General Jeffreys took her from Colon he only had one officer under him, and this man became insane after one day out. The solitary engineer of the Pinzon cannot stand all the work of running the ship. General Jeffreys left Sabanilla sud- denly, and General Galderon, Conserva- tive candidate for President of Nicaragua, who has never salled a ship, is said to be commander. An American gunner named Rose was anxious to quit the ship with General Jeffreys, but was stopped by the authorities. Threatening State on Isthmus. The conditfon of affairs on the isthmus is very threatening. Liberals assert that the raids along the railroad are made with the intention of inducing a foreign government to follow and attack the raid- ers in their mountain stronghold. A man who has just arrived from the isthmus says he visited the camp of a thousand men who were so intrenched that a hundred times their number could not dislodge them. The rebels still hesi- tate to attack Colon or Panama on ac- count of the scarcity of guns and ammu- nition. They expect a large shipment soon. An Indian chief in the department is said to have offered to furnish a thou- sand men if arms are provided for them. Assumes Serious Aspect. COLON, Colombia, Aug. 23, via Kings- ton, Jamaica, Aug. 26.—The censorship here prevents the transmission of political news or news unfavorable to the Govern- ment. The revolt of the Liberal Colom- bian rebels, now two years old, lately as- sumed a more serious aspect by the Lib- erals’ concentration on the isthmus. It is believed they are contemplating aggres- sive action. Consequently uneasiness pre- vails at Panama, the Liberal objective, which was nearly captured a year ago. It is not belleved the rebels will molest the railroad or interrupt traffic. The re- cent rebel ‘ralds. alops the rallroad robbery of Chinese storckeepers, which the presence of a few Government troops apparently stopped. There is a report that the Government is bringing troops to pro- tect the isthmus. This will be difficult without exposing to rebel attacks the points whence they are taken. The area of the revolt is extenstve. Support From Venezuela. A noticeable distinguishing feature of the revolution is the actual moral support the Liberals are receiving from Venezu- ela, Ecuador and Nicaragua, in which countries Liberal governments prevail. Colombia’s Conservative Government is not popular with the Governments of the isthmus, but is popular with the revolu- tionary elements in the same countries. The situation can be likened to a disrupt- ed federation, composed of Venezuela, Ecuador, Colombla and Nicaragua, in which Liberal and Conservativc partisans are helping each other and intriguing to- gether. But, being separate nations, the political and armed intrigues threaten in- ternational trouble. It is reported that the Conservative re- volt in Venezuela against President Cas- tro is receiving actual support from the Colombian Conservatives. Nicaragua's threatened revolution wiil probably be similarly aided on the occasion arising. The conditions give ground for the re- ports of actual or threatened international complications _between the countries mentioned, in which the Liberals are gen- erally opposed to Colombia’s Conserva- tive ~administration, whose downfall is accompanied by talk of a fed- eration or consolidation of some or all of the countries mentioned under the idea of a “Grand Colombia.” Hampered by Lack of Arms. The rebels on the isthmus are hampered by a lack of arms and ammunition, and are reported to be awaiting the arrival of shipments and the presence in the field of certain leaders before commencing activi- ties on the isthmus. General Alban, Gov- ernor of Panama, who was recently grant- cd extraordinary civil and military pow- ers on both sides of the isthmus, is now absent at Sabanilla. He is supposed to be bringing troops for the protection of the isthmus. He lately invited a number of friends at Panama to his house, put a guard at the door and forced his guests to contribute liberally to the Government be- fore releasing them. A Colombian holding monopolies under tha Conservatives is be- ing forced to contribute liberally to the payment of the police of the isthmus. SENDING MORE WARSHIPS. Three British Vessels Ordered to Pro- ceed to Panama. VICTORIA, B. C., Aug. 26.—It was re- ported to-night that the cruiser Amphion, now at Esquimalt, and the two torpedo destroyers Sparrowhawk and Virago had received orders to prepare for a cruise, probably to Panama, for which place the Tcarus recently left. The Amphion this afternoon took on three scowloads cf am- munition, and crders have been given to have all her stcres and equipment on board without delay. The Virago's boiler has_been taken apart for repairs, and work has been ordered to go on day and night in order to hurry them to comple- tion. Father Yorke Among the Speakers. CHICAGO, Aug. 26.—Delegates to the annual convention of the Gaelic League of America, which met here to-day. adopted a new constitution. providing for a State organization or league, to act in conjunction with the national body. A resolution was also adopted providing th:t llrlsh history be taught in parochial schools. An open meeting was held at the Au- ditorium to-night, at which speeches were made by Rev. P. C. Yorke of San Fran- cisco, Michael Davitt and others. Mr. Davitt told of the advancement in Ire- land and predicted that the national tongue of Irishmen would be revived through the efforts of the organization. R — The Machias at Colon. COLON, Colombia, Aug. 26.—A report | is circulated here to the effect that the rebels now threatening the town of Bo- cas del Toro hail from Bluefields, Nica- ragua.

The present examination deals with the alleged embezzlement of $49837 on April 7, 1900. - Leach’s testimony generally tended to confirm Cashier Cole’s account of the juggling by Dimmick of the $498 37 Voucher. This voucher had been made by Dimmick at Leach’s request and did not | represent an_actual cash transaction. When Leach found that Dimmick had im- | posed the voucher on tHe cashier and that the latter had carried it as cash until Dimmick had taken it up he (Leach) be- gan an investigation into Dimmick’s ac- counts.

W., WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.—Captain James M. Forsyth has been asked by Acting Secretary Hackett whether he! gave the alleged interview with him sent out from Kansas City last night rela- {ive to the Schley-Sampson controversy. Acting Secretary Hackett and the offl- cials of the Navy Department were much surprised to read the alleged inter- view this morning, in face of the posi- tive orders issued by Secretary Long pro- hibiting persons connected with the nusy from discussing the Sampson-Schley con- troversy in any way pending the finding of the court of inquiry. It can hardly Te believed in-the department that : officer In the navy, especially one with the high rank of Captain Forsyth, can have been guilty of violating not only the navy regulations, but an express cr- der of Secretary Long's. Acting Secretary Hackett wrote to Captain _Forsyth to-day asking 'hlm whether he had glven such an interview. No further action will be taken until Captain Forsyth's reply has been re- ceifved. Hackett's letter was not official, as it did not go through the office of the judge advocate general, which is the usual course in such cases. It is a per- sonal letter from ;\he Assistant Secretary to Captain Forsyth. If Cgp!aln Forsyth denies the interview it is not probable that he will be ealled to account for it officially, unless evi- dence should be submitted to the depart- ment contradicting his denial.

In the meantime ‘his captor returned twice and declined to give the beggln% prisoner food, but let a small bottle o tea down on a string. The fellow asked for 3600 and promised to let Mortimer go for this amount. Mortimer had no money with him. Finally the old miner bound the sticks hastily with rope, took a strand of rope in his teeth, wormed his way up the rope ladder to the shelf, drew the sticks with one hand as he held on with the other, catching the string in his teeth as he gathered it. Then he tried to throw the stick to the top of the shaft, but fell short by many feet. Finally Gains Freedom. Just at this time his captor came back, The prisoner slipped to the bottom and hid.

Dimmick’s explanation was at the time satisfactory, but later, sald the witness, proved to be founded on falsehood. Dimmick Pleads for Mercy. At this same time, Leach testified, he asked Dimmick for his books. Dimmick brought the books and said at the time, “Mr. Leach, you will find the books right to a dollar, and when you are ready to count the cash I'll bring it to you.” Leach examined the books and found that they showed a cash balance on hand of “I will not bother about the cash to-day. Let me count it in the morning,” he sald. The following morning Dimmick fol- lowed Leach into his private office. The chief clerk closed the door. He appeared fo be Iaboring under great mental excite- ment. “Mr. Leach,” he said, “for the first time in my life I have told you a lie. Don’t ask me fer that money. It might make me an embezzler.” The witness asked, Dimmick how he justified his taking Government funds. Dimmick explained that he (Dimmick) was the custodian of this particular money, that he would not under ordinary circumstances have had to account for it until the end of the quarter, and that, anyway, his bond was more than suffi- glent to protact the Government against oss. P He went on to remind Leach of how creditors had haunted him. They had dogged his footsteps from the Mint to his home and from his home to the Mint;: they had leaned over his desk and dunned him during business hours, and had driven him to the verge of i nity. He had arranged, he sald, to_convert his life insurance policy into cash and had sim- ply anticipated the proceeds of his policy to stave off the most relentless of his creditors.

COLUMBIA, S. C., Aug. 26.—An accident at the new bridge which the Southern Rallroad is -constructing at Congaree River to-dav caused the @eath of four men. Another was fatally and two more seriously injured. The falling of the steel girders about seven feet long, weighing fourteen tons each, caused the accident. The girders were hoisted about midway of the river above the bridge. The rains of the night previous probably had caused the ropes holding them in place to slip. The crash came without the slightest warning. There were seventy-flve people on the bridge, spectators and workmen. ead: 8. J. CASTLEBERRY. REUBEN AUSTIN. JOB DEBAIS. JIM REESE. The injured: David Stiles, fatally; A. T. Thornton, seriously; Sam Willired, se- riously. The bridge is being built by the Phoenix Bridge Company of Philadelphia. The structure was not materially damaged by the accident, though some of the iron — had hitherto existed between him and his chief clerk, Leach was inclined, he told Commissioner Heacock, to be lenient with his subordinate. He lectured him on the seriousness of his act, pointed out that he had committed a penitentiary offense and gave him five days in which to produce the money. At the same time he told Dimmick that he would have to leave the Mint, but that_there was no hurry for a few months. He could remain until he had made certain of a new jol w job. Dimmick subsequently notifled Leach - ——pe ATTORNEY COLLINS EMPHA- I SIZING ONE OF HIS NUMER- | OUS OBJECTIONS BEFORE i JUDGE HEACOCK. | —_— | that he was ready to have his cash counted. The amount on hand tallled with the balance shown on Dimmick’s books and the transaction was closed un- til the beginning of the present suit. Leach_then identified some entries in the books of the Mint and detailed cer- tain accountings involved in the present proceedings. The hearing will be resumed at 2 o’clock this afternoon.

SPOKANE, Aug. 26.—During the per- lormani of “A Trip to Cuba” in the Au- ditorfum) Theater to-night a shriek of agony was heard behind the scenes. Wil- Ham Harris, an actor, had walked too near a cage of lions which are used in a vaudeville act. One of the llonesses seized him through the bars by the back and tore a wound in his scalp four inches in length and gave him lesser scratches. By an almost superhuman effort Harris tore himself away from the beast's claws. The curtain was hastily rung down_and all was confusion in the theater.
