That CaI;fornia syndicate


New YORK, July 7th.-The Tribune says
The utmost secrecy is maintained by the
agents of the real estate syndicate of Cali
tornia capitalists, who are putting several
millions of dollars into scheme for secur-
ing big returns in the way of rents Just
who the men with unlimited bank accounts
are IS not given out, but it is pretty we'll
understood, and Morris Baer, AGENT, tacitly
admits that j. S. Kelly, Leland Stanford,
&. Z. Huntington, Haggin and Tevis are
the syndicate. There is no definite amount
subscribed, and ali the property secured is
not held by the same parties These men
got together in February and agreed to buy
all promising big parcels of land IN this
city which they could get their hands upon,
and Raer was commissioned TO bargain all
over Manhattan Island. Sometimes one or
two Of the capitalists do not like the par
ticular price OF this property, when they
stay out, and the others buy and actual
cash is paid. The syndicate refuses to allow
dollar 10 remain on mortgage. Another
curious fact is that in but one instance have
any of these men taken the trouble to look
at the property before buying. They
are guided almost entirely by the rent-roll.
OF the five or six million dollars worth of
property bought thus far bat two pieces
the Strathmore flats, for which S125, 600 was
paid, and the Broadway and Thirty-seventh
street property, costing 1925, ,000-have been
recorded in the Registers office. In order
that their movements may be covered up
and their operations untrammeled, the re-
cording of deeds is delayed until all the
cash to be spent is paid out. The syndicate
refuses to 60 outside of the city and will not
touch seaside or summer resort property,
and buys only for building investments
HUNTINGTON KNOWS NOTHING OF IT.
New YORK, July 7th.-C. P. Huntington
said TO your correspondent this morning
% | know nothing about stories published
regarding the syndicate of capitalists buy
ing up real estate here. | don't believe if
is true. Still it may be-" Other Califor-
mans say there have been rumors of some
such scheme for long time past, but they
were generally discredited.

Rapid Advance In Wheat.


CHICAGO, July 7th.-During the first hour
ON Change there were some wild scenes in
wheat puts. August opened at s22c, and
an avalanche of offerings were brought out,
which broke values down little, but the
shorts came out in force, and with almost
no stops August advanced to S3sc. The
market was greatly excited. The rapid ad-
vance caused the suspension of John w.
Rumsey, an old member OF the Board.
The amount involved cannot be yet learned.
There has been, within week. straight
advance in wheat Of eight cents per bushel
The Maxwell Murder Case.
ST. LOUIS, July 7th.-Judge Van Wagner
of the Criminal Court, to-day oyerruled the
motion made recently by Maxwells attor-

oner is sentenced an appeal will be taken
to the Supreme Court. If this shall prove
unsuccessful the case will be taken to the
United States Supreme Court on the ground
that the State law, which allows the prose-
cution more challenges of jurors than the
defense, is unconstitutional.
The New York Hop Crop.
CoNAJoHARIE IN. Y J, July th.-By con-

mated that the hop crop this fall will
not be over one-quarter of an average
yield. Three weeks ago the prospects were
never brighter, but now the yards are lit
orally covered with lice, English flies and
honey dew. Either appearing at this stage
of the vines growth augurs failure of the

The Senate then resumed consideration
of the amendments to the river and harbor
bill.
Harris argued against the amendment
striking out the item Of $4,000 for Hiawa-

A Plan Proposed to Reclaim a Portion
of the Bed of the Creek,

FOR several years various plans have been
suggested by citizens to reclaim or improve q
large tract OF land lying along Rock creek north
OF the M-street bridge, which has been rendered
practically vaiueess by reason of precipitous
bluffs and the presence of the creek. These
plans have been associated also with plans for
extending or continuing the streets of Wash.
fngton north of NJ street into West Washington
One plan proposed is to divert Rock creek into
tunnel near Lyons mills, at a point on a line
OF 5 street north. This proposed tunnel would
run almost directly south, under the hills of
West W ashington, until it struck the present bed
OF the creek again about NJ street. Rock Creek
from Lyons Mills to NJ street makes n long bend
or arc and the proposed line q tunnel subtends
and reappear again at NJ. This plan has met
with considerable favor among citizens and a
petition favoring it has been signed by many
residents and property owners on both sides of
the creek. Some years ago MeSsrs. Beck with &
Quackenbush. the contractors for the Aqueduct
tunnel, made a rough estimate that such tun-
The District Commissioners have never consid-
cred the project. District Commissioner
Wheatley said to STAR reporter, this
morning, that he considered this plan
been suggested. The tunnel, he thought,
would have to be at least fifty feet In diameter.
Commissioner Webb thought the plan too cost
~ TO be deemed entirely feasible at this time,
when SO many other improvements demanded
large expenditures He thought ii would cost
$2,OOO,OOO or SO 100000.
a plan was suggested by Maj. Lydecker,
when District COMMISSIONS, to continue the
streets of Washington into West Washington
by means of viaducts or causeways spanning
the bed of Rock Creek.
A scheme similar TO the one now suggested. to
tunnel under the heights, was proposed To the
board of public works, but not then approved.
The plan at that time, however. did hot con-
template so long tunnel, or affect SO large an
area Of ground.

Fears That The Backs On the McscaIer0
Reservation Will Join Them-NO
Troops TO Protect Southern Arizona
An Indian Raid Feared.

An Indian Raid Feared.
CHICAGO May 1S.-An FL Paso, Tex, special
regarding the Indian raids says: Persons arriv-
ing here from along the southern border OF
Arizona report that the inhabitants are living
in perfect dread Of being lnassacred by Geron-
mos band. Employees VI over u dozen ranches
state that signal hires nave been seen nightly IN
the mountains OF Mexico bordering the line.
Several very old Indian scouts who are in this
CITY are united in the belief that Geronimo will
eudeayor to reach the Mescaero reservation
for the purpose of persuadlng the friendly In
dianS to ioin MIN in his mountain warfare
These reservation lnulans, the scouts say, are
restless, and last winter tney were Very much
dissatisfied. 1t is feared If Geronimo could eX-
crt the influence Of his presence he could bring
away not less than hundred fresh bucks 10 re-
,,ieuish his band. The reservation Indians de-
long to the same blood-thirs;y family of the
Apache tribe as Geronimo. The scouts explain
the fires as most likely built by Geronimo's out
posts, who may be stationed there 10 await the
return OF two or three runners who have prob
ably been sent into the Mescaiero reservation
to endeavor to bring off some Of the bucks
There are, II is reported, no soldiers IN southern
Arizona at the present writing. Gen. Miles and
his troops being in Sonora, near santa Cruz,
some fifteen miles from the line. LII the
Apaches, after the repulse Oh riday near Santa
Cruz should be pressed too hard by the COM
bined forces, it is greatly feared they Will be
forced across the line, and, with no troops at
hand to head them OF, they would make a de-
tour of hundred miles, butcnerlng as they
went, and re-enter Sonora with perfect safety.

London Liberal Radicals IndOrse Glad
stone - The Government Willing to
Go TO the COuntry-RumOrs that Lord
Harrington Acceptss Home Rule.

Special Cable Dispatch TO TIE EVENING STAR
LONDON, May lS.-The London liberal radi-
cal council yesterday followed the lead OF the
national liberal federation IN supporting Glad
stone strongly against Chamberlain. Although
very radical body, IL was with great difficulty
that Chamberlain's friends induced the meet
ing TO drop from the resolution the clauses
specially censuring chamberlain. Several dele
gates warned Chamberlain that he is making a
great mistake IL he is counting upon the coun-
try to support him.
DISSOLUTION IMPENDING.
The feature OF the debate in the house OF COM
mons last night was James Bryces assurance,
practically in the name of the government,
that they would not have the slightest unwill-
ingness TO consult their constituencies. This
was understood by the house as a ministerial
intimaton that dissolution will follow the de-
feat of the home rule bill, and was received
with loud and prolonged cheers. The Times
says Bryce's speech constitutes the best state
ment OF the government case that has yet been
made. There is no talk to-day about anything
but dissolution, except one curious rumor which
would be absurd If it did not come from a well
Informed quarter.
RUMoR THAT HARRINGTON HAS YIELDED.
This is that Lord Harrington has followed his
usual course of yielding AT the last moment to
the inevitable, on the ground that Gladstones
action has forced the home rule ques-
ton TO position beyond where IL
was before and rendered 1t necessary
for all statesmen 10 reconsider their
attitude in relation to it, The rumor is being
asserted and denied with equal strength. AS
harrington has just gone out of town this morn
ips it is impossible to get the highest confirma-
tlon or denial l can only say that while it
would be quite on "A par with Hartigans record
ii is intrinsically highly improbable. Ii is GER
tain that Chamberlain and harrington are not
united on any scheme, while IL L. understood
the queen has been convinced by Gladstone OF
the ocsirability OF dissolution.
The liberal whips estimate that they can only
lose 30 seats at most, and viii gain more than
this by the tranierence OF the Irish vote them.

What the Police Have Learned From q
Young Grocer.

CHICAGO, May 1S.-Malvin NJ. Thompson, a
young grocer, living at No. 1S5 South Green
street. who was present at the Haymarket
meeting on the night OF May 4th, says he over
heard August Spies, SchwaD and "A third man,
whom he did not know at the time, consulting
about the number Of dynamite bombs ~ be
thrown into the ranks OF the police. The three
men were standing iii the alley leading from
the east side of Desplaines street, only lew
feet from the wagon on which the speakers
stood. Mr.. Thompson overheard Spies say:
"Wiil one be enough; had. We not better send
for more9" He could not catch the reply, bat
Immediately afterWard Schwab and the third
man went away together. Mr.. Thompson has
identified Adolph Fischer, of the drbeiter
IL tuliJ force, as The third man. The fact that
Fischer and Schwab immediately left together
and were seen later in the evening standing
near the spot from which the fatal bomb was
thrown, gives good grounds for the belief that

tty OF the bomb-tnrower than they care TO
