Many old and tried men are on hand to struggle against their own records, and the comparatively new material is of a sort which promises a retension of Cali- | fornia standards on track and field. The | plans for meets with Eastern universities | are auspicious for this season. The pros- | pects of a trip East will bring out the best | there is in the men, for upon their own | efforts will depend the selection of those who will represent California in other States. Already three dates have been set for meets with the big universities of the | Atlantic Coast, and two more are being negotiated for with good prospects of fa- vorable settlement. The sixth and last meet will be in Chicago in the Western | Intercollegiate Field Day, which will take | place in the early part of June. The uni- | versities which California wishes to com- pete with are Yale, Harvard, Princeton { and Pennsylvania, the four she met two | vears ago.” Dates for field days have al- { Teady been made with last two named. and on May 10 California will meet Penn- lvania and on May 24 Princeton. The | Mott Haven games of May 31 will also be entered, and there the hardest fignt for | places will take place. This last meet is | @ contest between all the big universities, | | and is held on Manhattan oval, in New York. California will have two or three meets here before sending her representatives | East. The most important will be_tle contest with Stanford, in April. Tie Uni- | Versity of Oregon has sent & challange for | a field day, which has not yet been acted | upon, and some men will be entered in the Olympic Club field day, to take place in San Francisco on February 22. Of the men who went.East two years ago Cadogan, the craci sprinter; Service, the distance man:; Plaw, in the weights, and Hamlin, the hurdler, are still in col- lege.

Epecial Dispatch to The Call CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.—The devel- opments of last week show that there may be some doubt about Congress grant- ing to Cuba even such a concession as a 2 per cent tariff reduction. The beet sugar men, who early In the contest showed a disposition to compromise, are now opposing all compromise, insisting that the duty shall remain where it is. The result of their aitered tactics is just now causing a flurry in Congress. The great rival of the sugar trust, the Beet Sugar Assoclation, has made a fight against the sugar trust, so that in neariy all of the discussions that are had the benefits to be derived by capitalists from the maintenance of the tariff or from a cut in duties have obscured the real point at issue. While the beet sugar men have been given the tip that there will be no concessions and that sugar trust shares would, therefore, go to par, the sugar trust has been asserting that the Beet Sugar Association is looking only to big dividends. Friends of the proposition to aid the Cubans by tariff concessions have not seen fit to bring forward, in such a way as to impress the members of Congress, a clear and accurate statement of social and economic conditions on the island. The presentation ot the Cuban side has been weak. Advocates of ' concessions have not been frank in their statements, nor have they been prepared to adhere to_their original arguments. One of the most important points made by the friends of the Cubans before Con- gress met was that unless Congress granted a large reduction on sugar duties before Christmas many of the estates would stop grinding cane. This, it was said, would throw into idleness many thousands of Cubans, and in consequence political disturbances would occur which might put the island into a state of an- archy. Congress has not acted yet and the Cuban estates are still grinding sugar. Undoubtedly many of them are grinding it at a loss, but the extravagant state- ments that were made early in the sugar campaign have injured the cause. The trouble is said to be entirely in the House of Representatives. The Senate is inclined to give the Cubahs what they need. Senator Platt of Connecticut, him- self an ardent protectionist, sees the ne- cessity of acting, and he is convinced that no injury will be done to farming and beet sugar Industries. Put before the Senate will act it will walt a reason- able time to see what will be the outcome in the House. The House hesitates under the leadership of Nebraska and Michigan members. — ——— This signatare is on every box of the genulne | Lind on her tour in 1850-51, died_here to- CYBMRMEN..F':I% Z‘&’ig.".".‘,.’.,'ifm’&'fif s Laxative inine Teblets | d2Y 10, his elghty sixth year.

Both MAYOR OF O50EN NOW 1N HiOING Goes Into Seclusion to Avoid Being Placed in Quarantine. SALT LAKE, Utah, Jan. 19.—Willilam Glasmann, Mayor of Ogden, was to-day ordered into quarantine by Dr. A. 8. Con- don, City Physician of Ogden, for having visited the Detention Hospital in his ef- fort to secure the reiease of a patient said by the City Physiclan to be suffering from smallpox. The Mayor refused to be placed in quarantine and told the officer who at- tempted to carry out Dr. Condon's orders to consider himself under arrest for inter- fering with the Mayor, who is also head of the Police Department. Shortly after- wards Mayor Glasmann disappeared and up to a late hour to-night his whereabouts have not been discovered. To-day's action is said to be the result of a dispute of long standing between the Health Department of Ogden and the Mayor., The Mayor has questioned the correctness of Dr. Condon's diagnosis of a patient said to be suffering from small- pox. Dr. Condon declared the man was suffering from the disease: the Mayor said he was not, and ordered that the pa- tient be discharged from the Detention Hospital. Dr. Beatty of Salt Lake, sec- retary of the State Board of Health, was called upon to settle the dispute. After a careful examination Dr. Beattle de- clared it a case of smallpox and it was upon his advice that Dr. Condon ordered Mayor Glasmann placed in quarantine. ot The Old Humpbacks > Are not to be compared to our new pat- ent back, flat-opening Blank Books, which cost no more than the old style and are infinitely better.

Special Dispatch to Tre Call SEATTLE, , Jan. 20.—Eleven prisoners, headed by Moriarity, the counterfeiter, escaped from the Federal prison at Mc- Neils Island . yesterday by burrowing through a cement floor into the air pipes. A large posse is out after them. The news of the escape came to Seattle in a telegram to United States Deputy Marshal Tyler during the afternoon. BGD- uty Marshal Stringer was immediately sent to Tacoma to join in the chase. A reward is already out for the prisoners. The break is regarded as most serious, and it is feared that violence may resuit, as some of the prisoners at McNeils are dangerous and desperate men. Ed Moriarity, the leader, has been re- 5nrded by the officérs who caught him at ipokane a year ago last fall as a crafty and dangerous law-breaker. He was iden- tifled with two other attempts to in liberty—the jail break at Spokane last winter and an abortive movement toward a prison break at McNells some time ago. The latter involved a number of !hufll— oners. A villainous gag was prej for the warden, while wooden keys had been prepared to pick the locks. In all probability the escape had been carefully planned for several weeks. It is thought ti risoners have hid in the brush all day, intendi late to-night either by theft or violence to secure boats rom some of the ranchers. With these they would either go toward Hoods canal or Tacoma. Hanson, the prisoner whose futlle at- tempt at escape resulted in recapture a few days ago, was a member of the same ?‘rf of salm counterfeiters to which oriarity belonged.

Farmers Hopeful That the Needed Downpour Has Started. i LOS ANGELES, Jan. 19.—Fifteen hun- | dredths of an inch of rain fell here.be- | tween midnight and 2 o'clock to-day, | | after which the skies cleared and all in- | dications of further precipitation disap- | | peared. Showers were quite general throughout | the section bordering on the coast, extend- |ing as far east as San Bernardino and south to San Diego. The need of raln is | very great all over the southern part of | the State, especially on the ranges, where it is said grass is becoming short. | While the light showers of to-day fresh- ened vegetation to a certain extent, the benefit will not be lasting unless more moisture comes at once. The local weather bureau states that the barometer is ris- ! ing rapidly, with a west wind blowing, | making it extremely unlikely that fur- ther rainfall will occur in this section for the present at least. The total precipita- | tion for the season is given out as 2.32, | which is far behind last season, when the | figures were 6.7 up to the corresponding date. Heavy black clouds hung over the | mountains all day and it is said consider- | able snow has fallen in the high ranges | to the northeast. Redlands reports good showers early to-day, with prospects of more. At Santa Barbara rain began fall. | ing at 9 o’clock last night and continued | in showers for several hours. Every drop | in that section is welcomed, but it s the | opinion of agriculturists that an unusual amount of rain will be required to bring about average conditions. Santa Ana was wetted by about .15 of an inch after midnight, but the clouds cleared away this morning and the storm appears to be over. Many other places report showers which were soon drunk up by the thirsty earth. The weather to- night is clear and cool, with a brisk wind. SAN BERNAKUDINO, Jan. 19.—Rain be- gan falling here about 1 o'clock this morn- { Ing and continued in frequent showers luntl 9 o'clock, the total _precipi- tation amounting to .16 of an inch. Since 9 o'clock the weather has been threaten- ing and indications are good for more rain to-night and to-morrow. In the mountains snow fell heavily, covering the foothills nearly to the level of the valley. | No definite reports have been received from there, but rumor places the snowfall at efght inches. SAN MIGUEL, Jan. 19.—After fifty-one days of sunshine about a quarter of an inch of rain fell last night. The last shower was on November 29, 1901, when only .34 of an inch was recorded. For the season thus far 1.4 inches, against 7.97 | Inches to the same date last year is the record. Heayy clouds hang low and con- ditions are favorable for ‘a continuance of the storm. PASO ROBLES, Jan. 19.—Tt commenced raining here last night, but the storm stopped and it is clear to-day. People here are jubilant over the rain and feel that the drought is now broken. Last night’s rain amounted to .33 of an inch. Crops have stood the drought well, though the acreage sown is not as large as usual at this time of year. Feed is in good con- dition. SAN DIEGO, Jjan. 19.—The storm is over and the sky is clear to-night. The rain- fall has been sufficient in the country to be of substantial benefit to farmers whose lands had been plowed and seeded. Pala reports .50, Chula Vista .35, Sweet Water | .25, Del Mar .50 and Descanso an inch of rain and an inch and a half of snow, and Cuyamaca six inches of snow. TULARE, Jan. 19.—There was a light | shower here last night and there is pros- ect that more rain will fall. The crops ave not suffered from drought. L o S e e S ) BRAINGS 0RROW T0 HI FAMILY Montana Convict Forger Is Son of a Wealthy New Yorker. BUTTE, Mont., Jan. 19.—It has just been disclosed that Launcellot G. R. Living- ston, the forger convict in the Montana penitentiary on whose behalf a remark- able petition was sent to Governor Toole a few days ago asking for a pardon, is Gideon Granger, son of I. Albert Granger, a prominent business man of New York City, and nephew of A. H. Granger, also of that city, and former son-in-law of ex- Commissioner of Police McClade. His identity was disclosed by the investiga- tions made by Governor Toole when he learned that the mass of prominent names on the petition for pardon were !or%.}rlel, among the names being those of esident Roosevelt, Thomas A, Edi- son, Dr. Parkhurst and_a score of other prominent men of New York. Livi: ton is sald to be a descendant of Phili vingston, one of the signers of the Bec]arat on of Independence, and of Gideon Granger, Postmaster General un- der Willlam Henry Harrison. He was also in Rooseveit's company of Rough Riders in Cuba, and after the war came to Montana, where he resorted to an old ,and familiar trick of his for raising money by forging checks, for which he is now serving a five-year term in prison. A still more interesting discovery concerning tha convict has been made by a young woman of Butte, who was formerly Miss Myrtic Claybourne, daughter of a well-known cit- izen, now dead. A few weeks before Liv- ingston was arrested, last April, she met him and knew him by the name of Gideon R. Lingston. After a short acquaintance she was persuaded, almost forced, she says, to marry him, but immediately after the ceremony she fled from him, realizing the mistake she had made. She never saw him again and did not know whal had become of him until she read of her husband’s name among the aliases of the onvict for whose pardon the forged peti- tion was sent to the Governor. She start- ed an investigation to determine whether the convict and her husband were one and the dame person, and soon convinced herself of that. She has now began pro- ceedings to have her marriage annulled. IFOUR BUILDINGS SUDDENLY FALL Their Collapse Probably Due to an Explosion of Gas. Fortunately Accident Occurs When the Structures Are Unoccupied. DETROIT, Mich., Jan. 19.—Four build- ings, each four stories high, located in the heart of the wholesale district, collapsed $:30 o’clock to-night, without any ap- parent cause, and all that now remains is a smouldering heap of ruins. The buildings were occupied by five concerns. Their stocks are a total loss, which is estimated at $152,000, exclusive of the luss on the buildings, which amounts to $50,~ 400. The buildings joined each other at'the corner of. Jefferson avenue and Shelby street. The losses: Maddox Glove Company, 5,000; Imperial Cap Company, $15,000; F. euhoif & Co., stock of cotton goods, $8000; Hills Bros. of New York, stock of commission goods, $7000; Michigan Pro- duce Company, $7500; Cruseo Bros., limit- ed, wholesale grocers, about $90,000. No one seems to know what caused the collapse of the buildings. On ' Sunda; night that district is practically deserted, and the few who were in the vicinity say that the bulldings seemed to fall into a heap without apparent cause, making a noise like the rumbling of distant thun- der. There are evidences of an explosion. The walls of the rear part of the Mad- dox Glove Company’'s building are still standing to the height of two stories, but the roof of this part of the building lies turned bottom up in the middle of Shelby street, and a large iron smokestack lies on the sidewalk on the opposite side of the street, mashed against the buildings there as if driven by force. The buildings collapsed into a heap and in a short space of time the inflammable material caught fire from the furnaces used for heating the buildings. There were no watchmen about the premises, consequently there will be no loss of life. No one was injured, nor i there any one who can give a definite rea- son for the catastrophe. Experts who made an examination of the ruins were unable to find evidences of a gas explosion. It was fortunate that the wreck oec- curred on Sunday night. Had it hap- pened during business hours the loss of life would have been appailing, as there were approximately 200 'Persona employed by the various firms. They would have been caught in a veritable death trap and crushed and burned before they could have been rescued. @ i e MINER LOCATE ) LLST LEDGE Ground Rich in Gold Ore Discovered by a Pioneer. Spectal Dispatch to The Call TACOMA, Wash., Jan. 19.—S. Thornton Langley, a pioneer miner of Rossland, B. C., has obtained possession of a lost gold ledge in Okanogan County which is likely to make him a millionaire several times over. It was formerly known as the Okanogan mine, but is now called the Oroville. The property comprises a four- foot ledge of free gold ore, carrying val- ues of forty to forty-two dollars per ton: After its exploitation in 1808 by a mining expert a ten-stamp mill was erected and 5000 feet of development work was dome. The surface-part of the vein to a depth of sixty feet was blocked out and put through a mill, ylelding a net profit of $35,000. The vein was then lost and the prop- erty was abandoned after an expenditure of $20,000 in a vain endeavor to relocate it. Langley alone of the original com- pany declared he would not give it up. After much effort he inlisted the support of capital in the East last fall and two months ago started operations. Within thirty days he rediscovered the missing ledge, taking out .ore that is speckled with gold. ‘With the machinery now being installed the company will handle 600 tons month- 1y at a cost not to exceed $7 per ton. This will leave a net monthly profit of $20,000. More machinery will be added with the object of doubling this output. Nealon Plays on Winning Team.
