Nor- | man futher invited Lord Cranborne, Un- | der Secretary for Foreign Affairs, to lay | the papers in the case on the table. Lord Cranborne in reply said no such communication had been made to the Government after the outbreak of the war, but that immediately before the war communications were received from other | powers suggesting the presentation of a Jjoint note to the President of the United | Btates. Her Majesty’s Government agreed to join with the other powers in a note expressing the hope that negotiations of Her Majesty might lead to a peaceful set- tlement, accompanied by guarantees ac- ceptable to the United States for the pre- servation of order in Cuba. The Govern- ment first took steps to ascertain whether the presentation of the note, as well as its terms, wouid be acceptable to the President. Her Majesty’s Government, Lord Cran- borne continued, declined to assoclate it- self with other subsequent proposals, which seemed open to the objection of putting pressure on the Government of the United States and offering an opinion on its action. The Under Becretary concluded with sayg;ng he was unable to lay the papers in the case on the table. CORSET STEELS SAVE THEIR WEARER'S LIFE Deflect Two Bullets Fired at His Wife by a Tulare County Man. VISALIA, Jan. 20.—Henry de Long, who Mves twelve miles east of Visalia, made a murderous assault upon his wife this morning. He fired several bullets at her, two of which struck her corset steels and x’ltn;u:ed off. De Long is now in jail in this city. ‘When Mrs. de Long was taken home the first thing she sald was: “Oh, mother, see here; there are two @ @ to pour over it, i 200006ci60000060000000 holes in my new wrap that I put on this morning for the first time.” v in due fcrm, in which will be ki council fire, after which the gkrgzlid(lidhlte‘;: who ave to’ engage in the raising up will enter and assume station at the various stumps.

The cere. mony of raising up as performed in this order is interesting and will no doubt be instruetive to the “‘palefaces” who have never witnessed it. ik @ MWOTHER §TEP NEARER ThiA Oakland Office S8an Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Jan. 20.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 20.—Tt is said that | the Denver and Rio Grande Western Rail- way Company, backed by George Gould and his assoclates, will build a new line between Salt Lake City and California. H, J. Faust, the noted Western pioneer, now visiting Los Angeles, brings the lat- est news of the project, which would mean much to the State and the coast. Mr. Faust says that he has seen maps of a survey across the desert in Utah, leading to Walkers Pass, in the Sierra Nevada range. N. Neagus has sur- veyed a route through this pass, which is 1500 feet lower than any other pass in the upper country, inciuding the Central Pa. cific pass. While Engineer cussed with Mr. Faust the work he had superintended, he was secretive regarding the object of his employer. Mr.Faust was already aware that a route had been surveyed from Salt Lake Clty across the_desert, through Hureka, Ne- vada, to Walkers Pass, then beyond to Kern River and up the Tulare Valley to San Francisco. The line will pass through minin; e e ing eighteen districts in the Deer Creek, Utah, vicinity. The Denver and Rio Grande Company, eight years ago, surveyed a route to Cal- ifornia, but the Central Pacific Railway Company opened negotiations and pre- vented the construction of the line by making concessions to the Rio Grande. it is sald, amounting to about $5,000,000 annually, About a year ago George Gould and associates purchased the Denver and Rio Grande system, and it is claimed they are now making cautious moves whic! indicate the building of the line as here outiined. @ irimiirbb il @ FLIPINS MUST LAY DOWN RS WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—Haying failed, after two years’ strife, in subduing the insurrection in Batangas Province, which | lies just south of Manila, and having sat- isfied himself that lenient treatment of the insurgents is productive of no good results, General J. Franklin Bell, the mili- tary commander in that province, has de- termined on the enforcement of the war in the most. vigoreus and.detexmined fash- fon. It involves the reconcentration in a modified form, the application of martial law in all directions, and the unsparihg pursuit and punishment of the natives who act as sples and traitors to the United States. All this appears from a long report to the War Department, just published. The reconcentration order is dated at Batangas, December 8 last. In substance it provides for the establishment of a zone around the garrisons, into which the friendly inhabitants are to be required to come under penalty of confiscation and destruction of their property. This is sald to be neccessary to prevent the col- lection of forced contributions from the inhabitants by the insurgents. The mili- tary officers are allowed to fix the price of necessarfes of life, and it is promised that the people may return as soon as peaceful conditions are ectablished. Innocent Must Suffer With Guilty. This order is followed by a long circu- lar by General Bell to his station com- manders, commenting on existing condi- tions and giving them advice how to pro- ceed. It begins with the statement that he shares in the general conviction that the insurrection continues, because the greater part of the people, especially the wealthier ones, do not reaily want peace. He says it is regrettable that the inno- cent must suffer with the guilty, but the greatest good to the greatest number can be best brought about by putting a quick | end to the insurrection. Therefore he di- rects the application of general order No. 100, in force during the civil war in the United States, which practically regards an Insurgent as a guerrilla and outside the pale of civilized warfare and subject to the death penalty, wherever such’ insur- | gent does not engage continuously in the war and to serve all the rules of war. However, it is provided that there shall be no executions without the approval of a superior officer. Commanding officers are spectally enjoined to encourage young officers in hunting down the insurgents, and it is pointed out that there is no just cause for exceptional caution or appre- hension in attacking insurgent hodies wherever found. At any rate, under ex- istin, conditions, legitimate chances should be accepted, says General Bell, as excessive caution will do the army incal- culable harm. The best defense against the insurgents, he says, is to assume a vigorous offensive movement, as to retire | in the presence of the ehemy is hazardous. No Quarter to Be Shown Spies. A special injunction is laid on the com- manders to hunt down the spies and se- cret contributors to the rebellion, many of whom will be found among municipal officers. General Bell says that Malvar and other insurgent leaders have dic- tated elections of all “town officials in Bantangas and Laguna, and these town councils meet and pass resolutions de- uouncing the insurrection, while secretly informing the insurgents that this is done under compulsion and supplying them ‘with information. Therefore General Bel! declares that neutrality should mot be tolerated; every inhabitant should be either an actiye friend or be classed as an enemy, and acts, not words, must he made the test. Chief and most impor- tant among the class of disloyal persons, he says, are the natlve priests. General Bell declares it is pretty certain that every one in Batangas and Lagunas prov- inces is a secret enemy of the Govern- ment and in active sympathy with the insurgents. He orders that they be given no exemption whatever, but be brought to trial whenever sufficlent evidence. is obtainable, and adds that even in case of well-founded suspicion they should be arrested to stop their further activity. It is frequently impossible, he says,.to obtain evidence agnimat influential per- ot e lf!’n‘d“ ltd i once confined evidence is easily o - able. General Bell declares t'hayt' H’{’e'a:n- prehension and punishment of one Infl. vidual, official, wealthy man or priest. is of greater importance than the punish- ment of a hundred ignorant sons. The wealthy and _influential, he says, are those against-whom the most energetic| efforts should be directed. 5 —————— PRIEST AND TWO OF HIS CONVERTS' ARE MURDERED Chinese Officials at Peking Assert That the Crimes Were Com- mitted by Robbers. = "PEKING, Jan. 20.—A French priest named Julien and two Chinese converts Smithfield flax mills collapsed to-day, burying the ope;:lu:res. who included many women. rteen km‘e‘d and fifty injured. et Hder have been murdered at a village in the fit:rllh of Vga&xsti tIl;l'avh-nce;l.

OAKLAND GARDENER WHOSE BED WAS IGNITED BY FIRE FROM | | HIS PIPE AND WHO WAS SUFFOCATED BY THE SMOKE FROM AKLAND, Jan. 20.—A victim of his own carelessness, Edward McCall lies dead at the Oakland Morgue. He was suffocated by smoke ear- 1y this morning in his room at the Ramona House, Thirteenth and Harrison streets. It is ‘supposed that McCall was smok- ing in bed and suddenly fell asleep. The bed clothing became ignited and he slept peacefully while the room filled with smoke and he was rendered unconscious. It was shortly before 3 o’clock that one of ‘the lodgers at the house aroused the landlord, A. L. Hinds, with the informa- tion that the upper corridor was filled with smoke. With a bucket of water the two men ran upstairs and traced the smoke to McCall's door. At the same time the chemical engine on Thirteenth - tinguished. “All this time McCall's body had been lying in the bed. He was hastily removed to the Receiving Hospital, but when he reached that institution he was pronounced dead. Besides suffocating, his body was frightfully burned. “The only way I can account for the fire,” sald Hinds, “is that McCall was smoking in bed, He did this~frequently when he wished to lie abed and read. He must have gone to sleep. I threw a buck- et of water over the blazing bed as soon as 1 reached McCall's room, but I did not know that the man was in the bed. I thought he had gone to his work. He wasg found by the firemen when they came.” '} McCall was a gardener and was about 42 yedrs of age. He is said to _have had a mother and sister in San Francisco. The damage io property done by the fire was only nominal. The building is a two-story frame affair and has stood for years at the southwest corner of Thir- street, half a block away, was summoned teenth and Harrison streets.

A., LL. D., Mills professor of intellectual and moral philosophy and civil polity at the University of Califor- nia, in his lecture before the class in the history of philosophy delivered on Friday, mace known to the students that news- paper reporters were not wanted in Lis classroom, although he would gladly wel- come all other adults to his course. Pro- fessor Howison decared reporters to be “lost souls,”, who would not do to ‘asso- ciate with a’class in philosophy. Professor Howison's remarks caused unusual comment among the students in his class, and he was quoted freely about the campus. Although declining to dis- cuss the subject any further he stated that -in his lecture he made the following remarks: “We cordially invite graduate students and adults not in_the university to visit this course, providing they are not news- paper men. We want no reporters or cor- respondents. They are lost souls and we want no beings of that description in our classroom unless they have deeply re- pented of their sins and promised to re- form.” ———————— CF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Several .Changes Are Made in the Postal Service and New Pen- sions Granted.

VALET WHO ROBBED HIS EMPLOYER NOW IN JAIL Arrest’ of Edouard Kern Jr., Who Stole §ixty Thousand Dollars’ Worth of Diamonds. NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 20.—P. G. The- baud of New York to-day fully identified | T. E. Manners, the prisoner in the jail at Gretna, as Edouard Kern Jr., his late ‘valet, who robbed the Thebaud mansion in New York of $60,000 worth of diamonds and jewelry. The moment Thebaud laid eyes on Manners he said he was Kern. Man- ners made no further denial of his iden- tity. The necessary papers to take Keru | back to New York will be laid at once before Governor Heard, and that official has promised to sign the extradition im- mediately. Klein and West, the men who | were arrested for stealing Manners’ trunk frcm the St. Charles Hotel and who be- trayed Kern, will, it is expected, get off with light punishment. Their case is to come up on Tuesday. They probably wiil be taken to New York as soon as the hearing of Klein and West is concluded. Thebaud identified all the jeweiry stolen from Manners’ room in the St. Charles Hotel as belonging to him. —— e LOOKS FOR TROUBLE AND DIES WITH HIS BOOTS ON SAN DIEGO, Jan. 2—A special to the Union from Calexico, a new town near | Yesterday Alberto Tacha- | Imperial, says: co, a Mexican, rode through this place looking for trouble.

Los Angeles recelved about .15 of an inch of rain.” Light frost occurred this morning in the lowlands around Los Angeles, but it was of the white variety and did little or no damage, so far as can be learned. It is clear and cool to-night. SAN DIEGO, Jan. 20.—Showers con- tinued in the mountains back of San Diego this forenoon, completing the ratner generous rain which came on Sun- day morning. The heaviest rain was re- ported at Dehesa, where, after an inch and a half of snow, a warm shower came on, glving the section about an inch and a half of water all told. The fall at Ai- pine, Cuyamaca and Jullan amounted to about an inch, and from that down to a third of an inch along the coast. There is-much ground aireaay piowed and seed- ed in the country and the rain will start the growth. More rain will be needed immedjately, as the ground everywhere is very dry. FRESNO, Jan. 20.—A sprinkle of rain fell here early yesterday morning, but it was barely sufficlent to lay the dust in the streets. To-day the weather was cloudy, but to-night the sky cleared and the atmosphere is cold. A good rain is badly needed, but at present there are no favorable indications. BAKERSFIELD, Jan. 20.—Those who are much in need of rain and whose hopes had been raised by-the rainfall which started Sunday morning have been dis- appointed, and as the weather is now clear and cold a continuation of the dry spell is looked for. The storm was of no benefit, merely the surface of the ground being moisteVed. Although the rainfall was slight in_this city and the surround- ing valley, there was a goodly fall of snow and rain in the mountain sections and feed for stock is now assured. At Tehachapi four inches of snow is reported, and throughout the Woody and Linn Valleys country it rained hard ail Satur- day night. Farther back in the mountains there was a heavy fall of snow. Thase who have their wheat in have not as yet despaired of a storm which will insure a good crop. STOCKTON, Jan. 20.—The showers of yesterday and the preceding night were followed by sunshine to-day, but it cloud- ed toward evening and by 9 o’clock what promised to be a good rain began falling. The rain is coming just in time and has not been needed u? to the last few days. But .06 of an inch fell for the twenty-four hours ending at midnight Sunday. The record shows .35 of an inch for the month and 5.38 inches for the season, as agaiust 816 inches for the corresponding period of last year. | SAN JOSE, Jan. 20.—A light but steady rain began falling at 7:30 o'clock this evening and there i3 every indication that | it will continue through the night. Sat- | urday’s rainfall amounted to .11 of an | inch, making 3.13 inches for the season. To the same date last year the Tainfall | was 1117 inches. The rain is joyously | welcomed by farmers and orchardists. | Although there has been no real suffer- ing, rain is needed so that seeding and | plowing may be completed. Grain already | planted and up also needs moisture to | give it growth. The recent cold speil has kept the feed from growing, but a good shower and warm weather will remedy | this. | SACRAMENTO, Jan. 2.—Rain began pouring at 7 o'clock to-night and con- tinued almost steadily from that hour. The prospects are for a continuation of the downpour through the night. Al- | though there has been no actual loss to | the farming community hereabouts be- | cause of the absence of rain, nevertheless | the present precipitation is welcome. It | will be of great advantage to the recently | sown crops. SANTA ROSA, Jan. 20.—Heavy rain be- | gan falling this afternoon and continues | to-night. Crops are looking well. Early sown grain is particularly benefited by the precipitation. WOODLAND, Jan. 20.—Gentle showers commenced at 7 o’clock this evening a.d the spirits of the farmers have revived.
