Walters, an electrician, residing at 605 Leavenworth street, while working in a trench at Fourteenth and Shotwell streets yesterday, was almost asphyxiated by escaping gas. He was recovered in an unconscious condition and taken to the Railway Hospital. T“IE city was in a blaze of incandescent glory last night. With the pressure of a finger 28,000 hights sprang into ex- istence as if by magic, transforming the gloom of night into the radiance of a summer’s noon. It was an illumination which for brilliancy, diversity and extent has never been equaled in this or any cther city in the Union. The court of honor at the inter- section of Market, Kearny and Third streets, with its 2800 lights converging from the Pythian design in midair a hun- dred feet above the pavement, was the piece de resistance that attracted the azfrm'ring gaze of more than 50,000 people. spectacle, which will continue nightly throughout the week, will be talked of long after the Pythian carnival has become a memory.

EVER in San Francisco, and nessed as last night. the foot of Market street, | with the thousands of lights crowds as they came and went, to as far as the eye could reach was one long, glit- tering sunway.

At the Court of Honor the crowd stayed and admired till a late hour. The crowd all along Market street was bent on ad- miration and many stood before the Em- porium, witnessing the change of lights on the statue of a man in full armor, o a charger similarly equipped, with a ¢ tle for a background. The lights w S0 operated that they would change gra ually from a green to a light red, light- ing up the castle and the lake below. The John Breuner Furniture Company apd their next door neighbors, Hale were both beautifully illuminated in the three colors. The City Hall, with its pi lars outlined with lights, presented a most majestic appearance, the torchlight | at the head standing out brilliant and | imposing. BEAUTIFUL DECORATIONS. The Occidental Hotél was outlined in colored lights and the words, ‘Headquar- ters Supreme Tribunal,” with a shield containing the letters “F. C. B.,” was strung across Montgomery street in variegated lights. The Hub, on Kearny street, was well f{lluminated, as was| Roos Bros.' building, which was out- lined in the blue, yellow and red. Newman & Levinson's was decorated with hundreds of flags and Raphael's store showed up resplendent with shields | of electric lights.. A very pleasing dec- orated house was Greenberg's, on the cor- ner of Grant avenue and Geary street, with red ribbon and red and white light effects. Chinatown had not forgotten that the Knights of Pythias had come to town and most of the principal stores were decorated, not on — electrical Pythian emblems. All decorations became dwarfed, how- ever, in the golden shower at the Court ich made the opposite build- ings snow white and dazzled the eyes and tie minds alike of the thousands of on- lookers who enjoyed the scene. MANY LISTEN TO CONCERT. Although there were so many other at- tractions last night, the promenade con- in the nave of the ferry bullding proved a great success and drew a very large crowd, which walked to and fro ad- miring the booths and listening to the strains of the music. The two seeming great attractions were at the ends of the hall. shown a model of a diverting dam for the irrigation of Turlock and districts, in Stanislaus County, and at the other end were flve Yosemite Indians and with the falls for of Honor, w!

BRILLIANT EVER SEEN IN THIS CITY * BENTEN REBELS BURN K TOWN Retreating Firmin Sol- diers Apply Torch to Petit Goawe, American Commander Pro- tests Against Blockade of Cape Haytien. WASHINGTON, Aug. 1L.—Minister Pow- ell has cabled the State Department from Cape Haytien that the provisional (Vas- quez) government of Hayti has notified the United States legation that Gonaives, Port de Petit Goave and St. Marie prov- inces “are in rebellion. The Government troops captured Petit Goave after strong resistance, in which many lives were lost. Firmin's troops in retreating from the place set fire to and destroyed that town. Commander McCrae of the gunboat Machias to-day cabled the Navy Depart- ment that a facto blockade had been established by the insurgents at Cape Haytien. The Machias is at her anchu age. The following is the text of the dis- patch received by the Navy Department ifrom Commander McCrae of the gunboat Machias, dated August 10, at Cape Hay- tien: ‘‘Secretary of the.Navy: Your dispatch has been received. Having notifl Haytian admiral, Killick, of determina- tion to protect foreign commerce and tel- egraphic cables and resist bombardment without due notice, he replies accepting terms, with notice to all of foreign Con- suls that this port is blockaded in accord- ance with the orders of the Cabinet coun- tablished at Gonaives, Haytl. The is de facto and prohibits the entrance of merchant vessels. Firmin signs proclamation. Moderate forces ex- Jeuecd Luesusy Irom Gonaives. I ought not to leave my anchorage. Acting Secretary of the Navy Darling sent the following reply to Commander McCrae: “If the blockade is not effective, Cuban, American and unprotected, innocent, neu- tral vessels shall be protected in their in- ternational ghts. Can send you coi- Her from San Juan if necessary.” PORT AU PRINC —The cor- respondent of the ated Press visit- ed Petit Goave yesterday and found that the town had been entirely destroyed, there being nothing left but a pile of ruins. About 4000 persons are homeless and are greatly in need of assistance. The greater number of them have sought shelter in the Simmonds factories, near the town. The French cruiser DfAssas arrived at Petit Goave yesterday with provisions for the sufferers and returned to Port au Prince with 200 women and children and fifteen wounded men. The authorities refused to permit the Firmin- ists to leave, fearing they would go to other points to take up arms again. Each party accuses the other of having set fire to Petit Goave, but the genmeral belief is that Chicoye, the Firminist com- mander, resolved to destroy the town when he saw that he could not hold it against the Fouchardists. The gunboat Crete-a-Plerrot, which is in the Firminist service, gave notice yes- terday of the blockade of Cape Haytien. The foreign Consuls here and Commander McCrae of the United States gunboat Machias protested against this action. Soldiers have again gone out from here and a battle in a_few days is believed to he inevitable. The bad feeling against foreigners has Increase OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Several Changes Are Made in the Postal Service and More Pen- sions Granted.
