They continued their hurried flight until they reached the ; Bacoachi country. The authorities of | that section now have appealed to | Arispe and Cananea, saying that the bandits are camped in the mouma(ns‘ just back of the town. The small forces at hand are unable to resist the bandits, who continue their raids in | open defiance of all the rurales and officers which the place can muster. ‘When Sanchez and his band®raided the town and killed his brother-in-law, Guidino, a 'merchant in the place, ! was thought that the leader had satis fled his vengeance and would not care or dare to return. In consequence no provision was made against a second attack. It was thought after he had crossed the line he was gone for good, but Sanchez evidently knew his | ! 'men. He knew the inevitable result of | | |a meeting with the determined force of Americans and when he found the | | Rangers had taken his trail he slipped | his band back into Sonora by night| ., marches and then crossed the line just | {in time to avoid a fight.

C, Nov. 25.—Be- cause of the results of the decision of the Alaskan boundary tribunal, the Dominion Government has definitely declded to build an all-Canadian rail- way to the Klondike. This decision was announced for the first time in| Vancouver to-day by the Hon. R. G. MacPherson, M. P., who said: “You may unreservedly announce that an all-Canadian road to Dawson City will be built without loss of time, | the project to be backed by the Do- minion Government. There are three | ways by which the road could be built | (and one of these wiill be adopted at | the next session of the House of Com- | mons. According to the plan -of Sir| Wilfrid Laurier and his Cabinet: First, the Government may guarantee the in- terest on the bonds of the syndicate building the road; second, a certain stated bonus may be given to the con- struction company, and third, the Gov- | ernment may build the road itseif and operate it as a state undertaking. The road will start from Kitimat Inlet, on the Western British Columbia coast, 500 miles north of Vancouver, and will | run through the northern part of the province, thence down the Yukon to Dawson. The terminus will be no fur- ther north than Kitimat, because the overnment wishes to keep the line as | far removed as possible from United | States territory. Construction will! probably start May 1, 1904.” B i k] (TEARS UP RNILS JURY IN HULSE GASE DISHGREES Stands Evenly Divided on Question of Pris- oner’s Guilt. +* 1 never come back,” | re for that one ght, s told the Commissioners, and kane .and sought n pauper and | nty Hospital e—— { FALSE ENTRIES ARE MADE | IN TAX COLLECTOR'S BOOK | Special Dispatch to The Call. and T do not like repeated questions on | ¢\ yocr NoU e Tne abrogation that point,” he replied.

Boland re-{ p Ggeql spent & few hours In this city | to-day on his return to Albany from | Washington, where he conferred yes- terday with President Roosevelt and Sepnator Thomas C. Platt about the conditions in the Republican party in | this State. Odell said the conference had brought about harmony in place of | the badly strained relations which had existed; that Senator Platt was still the leader of the party In the State, but he himself would hereafter take a more active part in its management; that the restoration of cordial relations had been brought about by concessions on both sides, and that further details of the conference “were not of interest to persons, but to the party.” In regard to the vote of this State in the Republican National Convention he sald that he had always expressed himself as believing that it would be given to President Roosevelt. “Do you care to make any formal statement about the result of the con- ference at Washington yesterday on | the condition of affairs in this State?” | the Governor was asked. | *“No, there is nothing I can say in | that way,” he replied. “We simply | had a conference and arranged mat- ters in a way satisfactory to both sides. Senator Platt is still the leader of the party in this State. There has | never been any disposition to take the leadership from him. WILL BE MORE ACTIVE. ‘When his attention was called to the reports from Washington that Senator Platt had conceded everything and turned over the leadership to him, the Governor smiled and said: ore of other as- stamped | at a sessments had unde: the same ADVERTISEMENTS.

I may | add that in the future I will be more faclh’e in politics In this State than I | have been.” | “You have 'been pretty active all along,” was suggested. “Yes,” replied the Governor, “but I will be more active in future. You may draw any inference you please from that.” “Will your actlvity extend to New York City politics?” “Yes,” was the reply, “I think the | local Republican organization can be improved and 1 have my ideas about putting it into better shape by next year.” “Are the reports true that Senator Platt is out of it altogether?” “Senator Platt,” the Governor re- plied, with great solemnity, “should be regarded as-the State leader as long as he lives.” “I do not care to say anything fur- ther about the conference,” he con- condition of affairs In the State or- | anization, but replied that Odell would have to explain what he meant there- by. ‘I have seen accounts of what took | place at the conference yesterday,” said he, “but I do not care to make any statement about it. There is no public interest in it. We had a very pleasant | time with the President, and entire harmony was restored. Yes, I am still | State leader, and I don't know of any one in authority who disputes it.” He listened with interest to an ac- count of Governor Odell's interview, but made no comment, and when asked about the Governor's statement that he would participate even more active- ly in politics in this State hereafter, said: “Yes, Odell will take a more active part.¥ PATRONAGE NOT ODELL'S. | There was absolutely nothing in the report that Federal appointments | would hereafter be arranged by the | Governor, he said. “In regard to the political situation in this city, Odell says it needs re- form,” said the interviewer. “Yes, he has been saying it all around,” replied Platt. “Do you think it needs reform?” “Yes.” “In what direction?” ! “I don’t care to say,” the Senator | replied, and he also declined to commit himself when asked what means would be adopted to bring about the changes suggested by Odell. “Was Governor Odell correct in stating that Roosevelt will get the New York delegation to the next national convention?” he was asked, in con- | clusion. “Yes, Odell belleves that Roosevelt will get the delegation, as does every one in the Republican organization.” MANY HEADS TO FALL. The Tribune to-morrow will say: “Friends of Governor Odell, in position to speak with more than usual knowl- edge in regard to the Governor’'s views and plans, said last night that the| Governor’s programme for a reorgani- zation included the following shifts: ““Willlam Barnes Jr. to be chairman of the Republican State Committee, in place of George W.

This ties up the work until a hearing on the matter, or until the third rail | is again laid. The trouble between the companies is said to be caused by ihe Germania Trust Company of St. Louis, which is to purchase $500,000 of the Interurban company’s bonds, objecting to the agreement both roads entered into. By the agregment the tracks in question would be practically under joint own- ership, and the trust company did not | want bonds on such a line. In order to secure the money the Interurban com- pany decided to break the agreement. e - MARE ISLAND CHANNEL IS IN GOOD CONDITION Admiral McCalla Says Vessels Can Be Taken to Navy Yard With Perfect Safety. VALLEJO, Nov. 2.—A dispatch in a San Francisco morning paper from Wash- ington announcing that navy officials are very much alarmed because of shoaling | for acquittal. On the last vote, how- | ever, one juror changed, and the last | ballot showed six to six. | Hulse was very pale when the jury | came in, and although it was known | that there had been no agreemeng, he scanned the face of each man eagerly. | In addition to having to stand a second | trial for the alleged murder of Tib- | bet, there is a charge against Hulse of having murdered Marshal Packard. If | both these cases fail there is still the ! charge of harboring an outlaw, which Hulse has acknowledged many times. | On account of prior convictions a sen- | tence of ten years can be imposed | the latter crime in the event of a con- | viction being secured. Jennie Fox, the | French woman who was in the joss house during the fight, is still held in jail as a witness, although she was not | called by either side. She twice testi- | fied under oath that Hulse and a third { man were in the building and assisted | McKinney. Later she retracted every- | thing and the case was much weakened | by her defection. The defense was also afraid to use hey, as her statement would be impeached by her former tes- | timony. —_—e—————— BOARDING-HOUSE KEEPER PROVES AN EASY VICTIM Swindler Eflpu;n?l Himself as a Government Engineer and Secures 4 Small Sum of Money.

PITTSBURG, Nov. 2.—Panic en- sued at a fire in the Avenue Theater tihs afternoon, which communicated to the audienée in the Grand Opera House, next door. Fifth avenue was jammed by people rushing out of both buildings and the firemen and crowd rushing to the scene. George McKenzie was operating the cinematograph, the last act on the vaudeville bill -at the Avenue. The house was about one-half filied, as many had gone out. The first scene was thrown on the canvas and the next was a fire scene—but it took place be- tween the second and third galleries. An electric spark ignited the cellu- loid box and film in the cinematograph machine and the flames ignited window frames and the third gallery. The bright flash did not alarm the audience until some one in the gallery cried “Fire” and made a rush for the stairs. The audience got out in fairly orderly shape, but many hats, wraps and coats were found in drenched condition later. Stage hands rushed forward with hand grenades and extinguishers and fought the flames until the firemen gained an entrance from windows, as the crowd below kept them out. MacKenzie, the operator, was the only one injured. Before the fire was extinguished Harry Davis, the owner of the theater, had a banner out on the street: “Fifty carpenters wanted at once right here.” —_——————— Sugar Factory Closes Its Run.
