1HE CHICAGO FAIH.
The southern California Depart
ment Exhibit Very Fine.


CHIcAoo, March GA summer-like
starry night and columns Of descriptions
in the newspapers had the effect Of
crowding Battery D Armory this even
ing to witness the opening Of the South
ern California Citrus Fair. The fact Of
an admission fee being charged to de-
fray the expenses of exhibition and the
proyerbial unsatisfactoriness Of first
night had no apparent effect upon the
attendance. The bulk of the crowd was
made up Of family groups, mainly pros-
porous looking citizens accompanied by
members Of their household. Another
prominent element was composed of
persons who evidently mad either visited
California or been residents. There
we're probably two Thousand people in
the hall when Mayor Harrison mounted
the stage, and waving silence to the
thirty musicians alongside him, began
an address Of welcome. He cordially
endorsed the object Of the exhibition,
which, as he stated. was to afford the
people of Chicago an opportunity Of
seeing what the counties of Southern
California are capable of producing, and
to lay the foundation for trade between
Chicago and that section Of the Golden
State. The Mayor spoke at considera-
Bile length on the mutual advantages to
be derived from such trade. and closed
by wishing the entire success which he
declared the enterprise deserved.
Commissioner Holt responded briefly,
thanking the Mayor for the address and
the people OF the city for the hearty re-
ception that he had received at their
hands. The audience then proceeded
TO enjoy themselves among the
long rows of orange and lemon and
palm trees. A stream of people passed
In and out the entrance, but a majority
of the spectators spent the entire even

only drawback is the detention by the
strikers at Kansas City of a large number
Of fruit bearing trees. 1t is expected,
however, that arrangements will be
made by which these will be forwarded
TO Chicago within day or two and
make the exhibition complete.

CAPTAIN CRAWFORD.
The True story of Hts Assassina-
ttOn.


Tucson, Ariz, March l3.-Lieutenant
Maus has made supplemental report in
reference to the murder Of Captain
Crawford by Mexican troops. The re-
port has been sent to Washington and
contains his own statement, and that Of
Lieut.. Ships. Mr.. Horn and the hospital
steward, all the white men present at
the time. The attack occurred at day
light. Crawford were his undress uni
form, Maus wore long United States
overcoat. Maus says he was with
in ten yards of the Mexicans
when talking. Horn says while the
Mexicans were talking they were
sending men quietly around to occupy
the hills where the scouts had already
fortunately gathered. While talk
ing to Horn one OF the Mex
leans suddenly raised his gun and
shot him in the arm. The hos
pital steward says that while he had his
back turned Mexican fired two shots
at him at close range. He was in the
dress uniform Of bis grade. The Mexi-
cana refused to answer any Of their
cries until the scouts had killed
four Mexicans before Maus could
restrain them from the top of the hill.
The Mexicans condescended to respond
to Horn, who went out alone to talk to
them. One of the Mcxicans said to
him, ''If you Americans haven't had
enough we will give You another fight"
The story that the Mexicans had been
following the track OF the Chiracahuss
is false. Their trail came in from the
south and the Mexicans from the north,
aud Maus marched back over the
Mexican trail so that he can prove
beyond contradiction that the Mexicans
story is false. Maus showed them a
letter to Crawford in Spanish from the
President of Sahuariha telling Crawford
where the Indian trails had last been
seen, and yet after all that they kept
Maus prisoner in their camp until six
government mules had been paid as
ransom. Lieutenant Maus in his state
ment says that Crawford was assassin
ated.

shocks of earthquake. resulted in the
total disappearance of New Lake and
Halemaumau. two pits in the crater Of
the volcano Of Kilauea, and the extinc-

Some base their views on observations.
Prof. Aggassiz believes that the disap-

SECRETARY MANNING.
NE is suddenly siezed with III


WASHINGTON, March %. = Rumor'
have been aHoat all the afternoon OF the
serious illness of Secretary Manning
They grew out of the fact that the Sec
retsry had been taken home from the
Treasury in his carriage and was carried
from his office to the carriage, being un
able to walk. Upon inquiry at the Sec
retary's residence it was stated that he
had simply met with painful accident
while returning to his Office from meet
ing Of the Cabinet. He had walked
over from the White House and with.
out waiting for the elevator to take him
TO bis room on the second floor. walked
up two flights Of stairs. On reaching
the upper landing his foot suddenly
turned under him, severely wrenching
his ankle. He limped into his room
without calling for assistance. Shortly
afterward Dr. Hamilton, Of the Marine
Hospital service, happening to be in
the building on business, attended to
the injured limb, and the Secretary was
then taken home in his carriage. When
he reached home DIR. Lincoln, the Sec
retary's family physician, was summoned
to attend him.
At midnight DR.. Lincoln, who had just
left the Secretary's bedside, said that
Mr.. Manning was holding his own and
had slightly improved since his last
visit. The Secretary's mind is still
clear and he did not anticipate that there
would be change for the worse during
the night. He had rallied from the ver-
tigo and prostration and was resting
comfortably. The Secretary's illness.
DR.. Lincoln says, was caused by prostra-
tion from overwork. He has been work.
ing very hard and had great many
things on his mind lately and the result
was this prostration. In spite Of the
hopeful view Of the case taken by DIR.
Lincoln, some Of the friends of the Sec
retary are exceedingly anxious and con-
slider his condition as quite serious.
DIR. Lincoln, who attended Secretary
Manning at his home, gave the following
statement Of bis ailment to an Assocl-.
ated Press reporter. The Secretary iSss
seized with vertigo on his return to his
office from Cabinet meeting. He had
been working all day without taking any
and was feeling very weak.
He walked up two flights Of stairs, and
on reaching the top was attacked with
vertigo and partly fell and partly sat
down. His sudden illness alarmed his
friends and he was taken home. His
mind was perfectly clear and he had
free use Of all his limbs and gave a very
clear accounted everything that occurred.
Two or-three hours after his attack he
has improved very much.

A report came to the HERALD Office
yesterday afternoon that strike al
Kansas City might interfere with the
handling of oranges at that point. A
HERtLD reporter at once interviewed
the agents Of roads centering at that
point, from whom it was learned that
there was strike of switchmen at that
point, but they were unanimous in the
opinion that there was no danger to be
forecast from the trouble. All lines
east Of there are taking all the freight
they can get. The A. & P. people ex-
press perfect confidence in the ability Of
their connections east Of Kansas City to
handle any freight reaching that point.
Later in the day there was a report of
strike among some Of the railroad men
at Omaha. 1t was then too late to in
terview those likely to know much
about the matter, but there seemed to
be some foundation for the rumor.
