REDDING, July 6.—There are a few poor innocent cows in a band of six graz- ing in a green pasture on the McCloud that are causing consternation among the people of that favorite camp- ing ground of the summer tourist. These particular cows are veritable w tep they make there is danger of a ter- ic explosion that would not only anni- hilate the cow but tear up things in gen- ral for hundreds of feet around. aptain Lambson, superintendent of the United States fishery, owns a gold mine not far from the fi perintendent is Charl , and one of Burns’ most effective ways of attack- ing the ore bodies is by the use of dyna- mite. Yesterday morning Burns placed six sticks of dynamite in the shade of an oak tree near a bubbling spring. The object was to keep the explosives cool. Each stick contained sufficient dynamite to blow up a band of cows and a good part of the pasture. While Burns was busy at his cabin a band of six cows, belonging to Robert Radcliff, were grazing in the vicinity and stepped to the spring to drink. Burns witnessed their approach with awe and expected every minute to hear the report and see the cows going skyward. There was no explosion, and Burns pro- ceeded to the spring with the hope of quietly driving the cows off. As he reached there one meek looking Jersey was just in the act of swallowing the last Burns did cow, but made a quick retreat to the rear and notifled the inhabitants for half a mile around. This particular band of cows will not be milked for some time to come, for even their owner refuses to go near them for fear of being blown up. Possibly only one of the cows ate dyna.- mite, but the determination of that deli- cate question is being carefully avolded by those who know a thing or two about nigh explosives, lking infernal machines and at each| oottt WEEK. 3 Nevada City; Dr. A.

ALTURAS, July 6.—In the wind-up of the Fourth of July festivities at Bieber, about fifty miles from this place, a seri- ous Indian fight took place yesterday. A number of the Indians in Alturas went down to the celebration, and among them were two factions. What is known as bad blood was mixed with bad whisky nd made a most enlivening combination. Wild Bill shot Big Mouth Charley in the head, and one of Charley's followers, Tom Short, shot and instantly killed Wild Bill. The shooting occurred early in the morn- ing, and Big Mouth Charley lived until evening. Big Mouth Charley had been a disturb- ing element among the Indlans of this county for ten years, and during that time he killed four Indians. There is great rejoicing among the Indians over his death. ‘ —_— Ckild Sleeps on the Mountain. SONOMA, July 6.—During the pyrotech- nical display at Petaluma on the Fourth of July a number of families dwelling in this city made a trip to the top of So- noma Mountain to witness the display. Among them were Mr. and Mrs. Twoney. who took with them their son, three years of pge. When the spectators were most interested the child developed a tendency to wander, and when he was missed from the assemblage a search of the immediate vicinity failed to reveal his whereabouts, Then an organized search was instituted, but without success, and the babe spent the night on the mountainside in a se- cluded spot. He was found Saturday morning after daylight. —_———— Yosemite Via the Santa Fe. , The quickest and most convenlent way n and out of the Yosemite Valley is by way of the Santa Fe.

Special Dispatch to The Call. o peiailey MONTEREY, July 6.—To the Editor of The Call, San Fran- cisco: Under daté of July 6, 1902, theke appears in the Ex- | | aminer of San Francisco an aur- ticle purporting to be inspired | | by General Thomas E. Ketch- am, under the title “Celcbrate on a Senator's Momey,” accus- ing the citizens of the Fourth of July Committee of Monterey with using the money of the “Sloat Monument Association.” There is no* 2 shadow of truth in the article. The ecitizens I raised their own .l\l('ll!!y and never had a dollar from any scriptions by patriotic people. R. F. JOHNSON, ' Mayor of Monterey. R. C. SARGENT. i ALLEN WALLACE. C. G. WHITE, Finance Committee. + ONTEREY, July 6.—Monterey is in a ferment of indignation over a story which appeared this morning in the San Francisco Examiner in which General Thomas E. Ketcham of Stockton charged that $3000 contributed by Senator Perkins to the Sloat monument fund was fraudu- lently obtained by members of the town's Fourth of July celebration committee and applied to the expenses of the general cel- ebration, and that for this reason the | management of the Sloat Monument Asso- ciation refused to co-operate in the cele- bration. Members of the local celebration com- mittee, among whom are Mayor R. F. Johnson and the most influential citizens of the town, are furious at the aspersions | of their integrity and express themselves as determined to begin criminal and civil proceedings against General Ketcham and the newspaper that printed his state- ments in case an immediate retraction is not forthcoming. Captain T. G. Lambert of this city, receiver of the Sloat Monu- | ment Association, when seen to-day sald: NO ASSOCIATION COIN. “The whole thing is a lie, As receiver i of the association 1 have knowledge of | all its transactions. Laying the stones cost $925, and this amount was subscribed | by the parties furnishing them. Not one | dime was given by Senator Perkins to- ward this ceremony. Furthermore, the association had no dealings whatever with | the citizens' committee, and none of its ! funds could have passed into the hands | of that body."” The members of the citizens’ commit- tee met this afternoon and, acting on their lawyer’s advice, gave a statement to the press, setting forth that every cent of money used in the celebration was ccllected from the residents of Monterey, and that the committee had not had any dealings with the Monument Association. The committeemen pledged themselves to fight for their rights and agreed to sub- scribe money necessary to obtain redress in the courts if the slander were not withdrawn. The accounts of Secretary Dale show the celebra- tion. So far as any clash between the citizens and the Monument Association is concerned there was none, the two bedies acting independently. The local committee some months ago tried to se- cure the co-operation of the association for a united celebration, but failed. A TRIFLING CONTROVERSY. Last week again Major Edwin A, Sher- man, secretary of the association, who had charge of the arrangements for the stone-laying ceremony, was requested to have his procession, including the sailors of the United States steamship Alert, join the civic parade. Major Sherman re- plied that he could not promise anything until the arrival of the Alert, but said he favored having the bluejackets march in the general parade. This, however, was not done, the procession to the mon- ument forming at one end of the town, while the parade formed at the other. The local committee accuses the major of breaking faith with them and making another arrangement in order to show his contempt for the city. On the other hand, Receiver Lambert says the Alert was detailed solely to par- ticipate in the ceremonies at the monu- ment and could not therefore take part in anything else. The Incident caused some criticism at the time, but in the success attending the celebration it was forgotten and nothing was thoughnt of the matter until the town was thrown into a spasm of fury by the publication of Gen- eral Ketcham’s charges. MAY PLACE NEW CHARGE AGAINST MRS. O’MALLEY State’s Attorney, It Is Said, Will Accuse Her of Attempted Murder. SOUTH BEND, Ind, July 6.—Mrs. Ailene O’'Malley will in all probablility be Tearrested next Tuesday when she ap- pears in the City Court of Philadelphia to answer the charge of larceny. The charge which it is said will be placed against her will be attempted murder. State’s Attorney Clark, it is sald, has sufficient evidence to indict the beautiful bride of the Notre Dame critic for that crime. .Clark {s said to_have discovered the fact that Mrs. O’Malley had bought arsenic at a local drug store a few days before Professor O'Malley was taken ill. In company with Frank O’Malley, a brother of Professor O’Malley, Clark went to the Sullivan resi- dence and searched the rooms used by the professor and Mrs. O'Malley. Letters were found, it is alleged, that caused the State's Attorney to believe that Mrs. O’'Malley had been married before she became the wife of O'Malley. Clark re- fused to talk further on the matter. The name supposed to have been her first hus- band’s cannot be learned. It is rumored that he is a Western man and resides in San Francisco.. LSRR Ty Missing Vessels Send No News. SEATTLE, July 6.—No news of the missing steamers Jeanie and Portland, is the report made by the steamship In- diana, Captain E. V. Roberts, which ar- rived to-day from Nome. The Indi sailed fr#1 the north the evening of J?lll"lz 26, two days subsequent to the departurs of the Senator. Purser McCullom says there is a great deal of uneasiness at Nome concerning the long overdue liners. On June 26 the United States revenue cutter was reported at Teller City on her way back into the Arctic to search for the Portland and Jeanie. She probably passed through the strait on the 27th.

TACOMA, July 6.—General Greely, chief of the United States Signal Service, will leave here this week for Alaska, where he will inspect the work on tho telegtaph lines at Valdes and Eagle City. He makes the following statement re- garding the installation of wireless tel- egraph stations in Alaska: “The first installation will be an all- sea route between Nome and St. Michael, over which the American, or Fessenden, system will be operated. The length of this route is about 108 miles. The con- tract requires that the system shall be in full working order by October 1. The second route is to be installed by the American Marcon! Wireless Company between Gibbon, on the Yukon, at the mouth of the Tanana, and Bates Rapids, a distance of about 170 miles. It is pos- sible this system may require an inter- mediate repeating station. This, also, is to be in working order by October 1. b i EE expet‘\;ed that Valdes will be brought in telegraphic communication with the rest of the world about Septem: ber 1. The completion of the line be- tween Valdes and Eagle City has been seriously delayed by the exchange of troops now proceeding in Alaska, but the work will go on rapidly henceforth, and the line will be in working order within six or elght weeks. The line is being constructed from both Valdes and Eagle City as starting points, and will meet at the center. Considerable work has been done along the line from Eagle City, and some distance has already been covered. “‘Since 1898 the Signal Service has estab- lished 10,000 miles of line in the Philip- ines, 4000 in Cuba, 1000 in Alaska and 1000 Fn Porto Rico.” REFUSE TO REINSTATE A TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION Delegates to American Federation of Labor Refuse to Make Over- ' tures to Printers. CHICAGO, July 6.—Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, suffered defeat to-day when his plea for reinstatement of Typographical Union No. 16 was rejected by the local Trades Assembly. The delegates to the federation refused by a vote of 116 to 101 to make any overtures to the printers. They suggested, however, that if Typo- graphical Union No. 16 admitted that its policy with regard to the federation had been a mistake its delegates would be seated at the next meeting of the federa- fon. Y Fesident Gompers later retused to com- ment on his defeat. Typo hical Union No. 16 was expelled from the Federation of Labor because the printers failed to support the pressmen while on a strike a year ago. kil il gt n Chief Operator Lowery Reappears. American woman and whose father is a | Chinese, fell in love with Sing some time | ago and determined to wed him. Believ- ing that her parents would oppose the match, she went into hiding with her lover as soon as the license had been pro- cured. Sing produced two witnesses, who swore that the girl was over 18 years of age. Her mother claims that, according to the American method of computing time, she is but 17 years and 8 months. If she were living in China she would be 19 years and 4 months. Mrs. Watson is anxious to have the would-be husband held for perjury, but the officers are still in doubt as to whether they will chargs him or not. Both Miss Watson and Leng Sing spent the night in the City Prison. When the officers made the arrest they were obliged to batter the doors down to reach the TRAIN FIREMEN FILE PROTEST Order Requiring Them to ‘Wipe Engines Causes of Troubl KANSAS CITY, July 6.—A conference between the officials of the Rock Island route and the grievance committee of its fireman, who are protesting against the order requiring them to wipe engines, will be held in Chicago on July 15. The fire- men will demand that the order be an- nulled, unless each fireman be pald 20 cents extra for every 100 miles, and that the firemen who have been discharged for refusing to obey the order be reinstated. The firemen assert that non-compliance | with these demands on the part of the Rock Island management will cause them to strike and that the engineers, brake- mey}nl and conductors will strike in sym- pathy. OMAHA, Nebr., July 6.—The fourth week of the strike of the shopmen on the Union Pacific Railroad began to-day with no changes in the situation. The machin- ists, blacksmiths and boiler-makers all held meetings in this city during the day, but nothing of importance was done at any of them. All hands are now waliting for the arrival to-morrow of’ President Gompers and James D. O’'Connell, presi- dent of the International Association of Machinists. They will hold mass-meet- ings and confer with the executive com- mittees of the different organizations rep- resented by the strikers. No new men arrived to-day and all was quiet around the shops. CHICAGO; July 6.—Freight handlers to the number of nearly 9000 men, employed in the different railway houses and depots in Chicago, at a special meeting to-night, declded to go on strike within forty-eight hours to enforce their demand for higher wages and a recognition of their union. Several days ago the Freight Handlers’ Union submitted a proposition to the gen- eral managers of the railways asking for an increase. The request was refused. The railroad officials, however, offered to confer with committees from among their own men in order to effect a compromise, but refused to recognize the officers of the union. This was unsatisfactory to the men. The State Board of Arbitration has been trying to prevent a strike, but the men said they were tired walting for the railroads to take some action and the de- d!llton at to-night's meeting was the re- sult. The strike in all probability will in- volve the teamsters, as the latter have declared they will not deliver freight to the railroads if it is to be handled by non- | union men. RIOTERS ATTACK CARS. Efforts of Police to Protect Crews Prove Futile. PAWTUCKET, R. I, July 6—Two cars of the United Traction Company were as- safled by a mob of 500 men in Saylesville to-night and the crews driven off. The rioters cut the curtains to pieces with knives, broke the windows and mutilated the woodwork. Two cars were attacked in Central Falls, one at Lonsdale and one in this city, despite the efforts of the lice to give the employes protection. K nally the running of cars was suspended. SACRAMENTO, July 6.—About two weeks ago John A. Lowery came from San Francisco to become day chief op- erator of the Western Union Telegraph Company office in this city. On the even- irg of July 1 he suddenly dropped from sight and days passed, but no trace of him could be found. Lowery reappeared at an early hour this morning, however, sound in body and mind. It is believed he was the victim of some nervous dis- turbance. & | strike to-morrow for Pantsmakers Will Strike To-Day.

No Promotions for Officers ‘Who Shirk Service on the Sea. | Favoritism Due to Social Influenca Will Be Done Away With by the Department’s Chief. EELFEILET Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTUN, July 6.—Since he took the reins of administration from John D. Long Secretary Moody’s handling of the Navy Department has been closely watched by officers in all branches of the service. The new chief of the Navy De- partment has ideas which are considered radical. Many of these Ideas, and the changes in the department which will ma-. terialize if they are put Into operation, have the hearty approval of the Presi- dent. As yet, no sweeping changes have been ordered. The greatest change which Mr. Moody has proposed caused a furor in naval eir- cles a week ago, when eacn bureau chief received from him the outline of a gen- eral plan for the reorganization of his de- partment into two divisions, one of which was to be that of personnel, controlling all officers and men and all ships in com- mission under the immediate direction of vigation, and the other a division of material, consisting of ai other bureaus under the direction of the Assistant Secretary. ‘While Mr. Moody belleves strongly in the advantages presented by this scheme he did not put it out as his absolute de- termination. He asked for comment. With one or two exceptions the bureau chiefs opposed the plan. They felt that it would be unjust to place the chief of the Bureau of Navigation on a par with the Assistant Secretary, while others were subordinate to the Assistant Seeretary. Secretary Moody withheld the order for the change. The point of Mr. Moody’'s policy most agitating the minds of officers now is that of sea service. With the President firmly - upholding him, Mr. Moody believes no officer should stay ashore whose work ean be déne equally well by a civilian. The first important order was that the record of each officer, showing the amount of sea service since his last promotion, should be submitted to the Secretary when the officer came up for promotion. This or- der had its effect less than a week ago, when it was announced that the Presi- dent had disapproved the recommenda- | tion of the examining board for the pro- motior of Stephen Rand to the rank of pay inspector. Secretary Moody found that Mr. Rand had not been to sea at all. The Secretary now has under consid- eration a proposed law under which each officer will have to serve a regular perfod at sea in each grade. This, it is believed, ‘will do away to a certain extent with the obnoxious social influence by which offi- cers frequently get desirable shore berths for long periods, thus compelling other of- ficers to stay at sea much longer than their regular terms. Secretary Moody’s recent orders that subscriptions to daily newspapers should be stopped In all offices of the Navy De- partment, including his own, and that high salaried but incompetent clerks should be reduced and competent ones promoted caused much comment, and his consideration of a plan to discontinue the rivilege now held by naval officers of aving their families attended by naval surgeons free of charge is also causing comment. Young Woman Fatally Shot. McPHERSON, Kans.,, July 6.—Miss - Maude Holmes was shot in the neck, head and breast and fatally injured late last night by some unknown person, who fired a load of shot at her through the window of her bedroom.
