IFLIS, Russia, Nov. 16.—Erzerum has again been visited by an earthquake. Altogether there were fifty shocks, ten of them being very violent. Twenty-two persons were killed and many buildings destroyed. The panie-stricken populace is camping in the flelds. The public offices are closed. Several shocks have also been felt at Kuyniskalah . and Hassan-Kaleh. 4 BUENA VISTA, Colo., Nov. 15.—At 3 o’clock this morning this town and surrounding country experienced an earthquake shock which lasted for several seconds. Many people rushed from their residences in mnight attire, fearfng their homes would be demol- ished. Plate-glass windows were cracked, and, it is reported, the waters of Cottonwood Lake rose considerably. Many huge bowl- ders on Mount Princeton and Mount Harvard were dislodged and rolled down the sides of the mo untains. The trembling seemed to travel from the southwest to the northeast and lasted about six ROBBER SUSPECT | members. seconds. NOW IDENTIFIED Proves to Be a Noted Criminal Wanted for Murder. ST. LOUIS, Nov. 15.—A telegram has been received by Chief of Detectives Des- mond from Sherift House of Concho Coun- ty, Texas, stating that the picture of Longbaugh, the train robber suspect held at the Four Courts, had been identified as that of Ben Kilpatrick, “the lone Texan” who is wanted there for murder. Kilpat- rick escaped at Sonora last April when Bill Carver was killed. The woman pris- | oner, Laura Bullion, is also well known there. More of the stolen Helena, Mont., bank bills are turning up in circulation about San Angelo. Chief Desmond “sweated” Kilpatrick again to-day. He acknowledged that he had been reared in Paint Rock, Texas, and knew Sheriff House. “You are wanted for murder down there,” sald the chief. “Now whom did | you Kil?* “I don't remember being down there,” replied the prisoner. he stopped talking. In the minds of the St. there is no longer any doubt that the Montana train robber suspect is Ben Kil- | patrick of Paint Rock, Texas. Another let- | ter containing an authentic picture of Kil- patrick was received this afternoon from | Sheriff House. The likeness between the | picture and the prisoner is unmistakable, When the photograph was shown to the prisoner every muscle in_ his body quiv- ered. He compressed his lips, but did not say enything. X elegram was received from R. B. in trouble " Then 1 Louls police | | Kirk, the Sheriff of Ballinger County, Texas, saying that the picture of the supposed Longbaugh had been_positively identified there as that of Ben Kilpatrick. SITE FOR FLOUR MILL SECURED IN THIS CITY Chicago Capitalists Prepare to Take Part in San Francisco’s Indus- trial Activity. Upon the block bounded by Kearny, Montgomery, Chestnut and Ffancisco streets the McDonald Grain and Milling Company will erect a large flour mill upon the expiration of a land lease next year. The property was recently con-| Veyed in part through the agency of| Baldwin & Howell from Edmund E. Scott, Alice M. Wilmot and Eva and| Charles F. Scott to the milling company for $42500. The sellers own an undivided three-eighths in the land. The other five- | eights are owned by Andrew B. Mc- Creery, Peter J. Donahue and the Burke | estate, A division of the block will be agreed upon which will give the milling company 137:6x275 feet upon which to build. The expectation is that the mill will cost about $200,000. The site is only about 200 feet from the belt railway and is prac- tically on the water front, so that it Is easily accessible to both rail and sca transportation. W. E. Keller, the manager of the mill- ing company, has been here recently making the deal for the land required. Several places were considered before the celection was finally made. The company is operating a large mill at Los Angeles. The people concerned in the company are Chicago capitalists. —————— TEACHERS HOLD ANNUAL MEETING OF AID SOCIETY Permanent Retirement Fund Is Re- ported to Be in Most Satisfac- tory Condition.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15—It was an- nounced at the War Department to-day that the names of the officers to fill the vacancies in the grade of brigadier gen- eral will not be announced until Congress meets, as it is not deemed desirable to make ad interim appointments. In addl- tion to this statement and in view of the great pressure that has been brought to bear, it has been deemed proper to make the following official declaration: The Secretary of War and the President have had Informal discussions on army matters on several occasions and it Is understood that the President has expressed himself njost positively on the use of political and social influence by officers for the purpose of obtaining changes of statlons, leaves of absence, modifications of orders, etc. Of course, it is understood that officers often deem it necessary to have atten- tion called to thelr cases by political friends for appointments, especially cases of young volunteer officers’ who have recently been ap- pointed. It is safe to say, however, that at no period in the history of our Government has the matter of record been used to such good purpose as during the present reorganization of the army, when the greatest possible care has been taken In the selection of persons for ap- pointment to the reorganized army, The President has not hesitated to inform Senators and others who have applied to him that no officer will improve his chances by sending his friends to annoy the President in his behalf. On the contrary the effect which will be produced probably will be directly op- Rosite to that which the candidate hopes for. everal Senators and Representatjves have had scme disappointment because * the per- sons In whom they are interested have not received the appointments and stations applied for by them, but the administration as a Whole is evidently of the opinion that the good sense and judgment of public men will lead to the same conclusion as that arrived at by the President and Secretary of War, that Is, if & system of records be thoroughly estabiished at the War Department. showirg the progres- sive work of officers fram year to year, it will be far better for the officers and men, as well as public officials, that such a register be made the guide for selections, 'details, etc., rather than influence. The appeals of Indi viduals to their Congressmen for their persona in the matters above enumerated necessitate public men giving up a great deal of their time in locating the proper office at which to apply for information and the filing of appeals. This takes them away from their legitimate duties while Congress is in_session and also interferes greatly with the public ad- ministration of the departments. It Is fully Tecognized by publfe offictals that the proper men in the first instance to establish the char- acter of an_applicant for office are the Sen- ators and Representatives from thelr own home, and it is eminently just and proper that their’ influence should be respected and they should be responsible for the character of the but once in the public service it is only fair to the ad- ministration that not only army officers but all other classes of public office-holders should rely upon thelr own merits and not upon the further use of political Influence. AN INADEQUATE VERDICT SET ASIDE IN NEW YORK Supreme Court Justice Severely Criti- cizes Action of Jury in a Damage Suit. NEW YORK, Nov. 15.—Justice O'Gor- man in the Supreme Court to-day of his own motion set aside a verdict for $300 in favor of Julius Wiltsen, who sued the Metropolitan Street Raflway Company for $15,000 for the death of his five-year-old son Lawrence on the ground that such a verdict was utterly inadequate. The ac- tion taken by Justice O'Gorman is sad to be without precedent in the New York courts. In setting aside the verdict the Justice said: ‘““The verdict rendered in this case is so gressly inadequate and indefensible that it should not be allowed to stand. The verdict is perverse and the damages arbi- trarily and capriciously fixed at such a low figure as to shock the moral sense. “The plaintiff is in no manner responsi- ble for this miscarriage of justice. and to impose costs as a condition of setting the verdict aside and granting a new trial is to emphasize the wrong to which the jury has already subjected him.” DARING BURGLAR KILLS A WOMAN Shoots Her in the Head ‘When She Finds Him in Her Room. Husband of the Victim Then Riddles the Murderer ‘With Bullets. GALENA, Kans., Nov. 15.—At Central City, a mining camp, thirty-five miles west of Galena, at 2 o'clock, Mrs. Kramer, wife of a merchant, was shot dead in her bed by Ed Watkins, a town tough, who had entered the house for the purpose of robbery. Kramer then shot and killed ‘Watkins. Watkins had formerly been employed by Kramer in the latter's gen- eral store. Kramer had disposed of con- siderable property in town yesterday and was accompanied home by Watkins. Mrs. Kramer was awakened in the night and found Watkins standing over her bed and pointing a revolver at her, She managed to exclaim, “Why, man, you wouldn't hurt us, would 'you,” when Watkins, with- out paying heed to her plea, fired, the ball entering Mrs. Kramer's temple and killing her instantly. Kramer arose by his wife's side and fired three times at Watkins, each ball taking effect. After Kramer's first shot Watkins called to his partner, who was in an adjoining room, “Ed, do your duty.” Then Watkins died without speaking another word. His pal, whose name and identity are unknown, escaped. Kramer’s eighteen-months-old girl was sleeping between her father and mother when the mother was shot.

They are built of the finest tempered steel, with polished brass and other mount- ings, and they cost the Government from $18 to $30 aplece. We purchased at auction the entire stock in the United States Arsenals, and we offer them to you, singly or in numbers, at job-lot prices.

They are also VAUABLE as RELICS of days that are past, and a constant reminder of the herofc deeds of the MAN BEHIND the GUN in the Civil War. - ‘We sell these guns—worth from $18 to $30—for the in- significant price of §175. Price includes twenty cartridges. Besides the guns themselves, we have all sorts of supplies and other weapons which can not be purchased anywhere else, but as the supply is limited the early comers will secure the advantage of this last chance to obtain these trophies.
