WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Representa-
tives of the glassmakers convention,
which has been in session here, were be-
fore the senate finance committee to-day
arguing that the duties proposed by the
senate tariff bill were too low. After
listening to statements from members of
the committee as to the effect of the
differentiation clause of the bill and the
restoration of the duty on packages, the
glassmen departed very much less dis
satisfied with the bill than when they
reached the committee room.
The senate committee on commerce to-
day ordered a favorable report upon the
house bill making Columbus, Ohio, a
port of entry.
The question as to where the United
States steamer Atlanta is to go, has been
settled at last. Orders have been issued
to her commander, Capt. Howell, to
proceed at once TO Port au Prince, and
to report to Rear Admiral Luce, COM
manding the North Atlantic station, now
on board the Galena. 1t is expected the
Atlanta will sail from New York Satur-
day morning The United States steamer
Galena viii return to the United States
upon being relieved by the Atlanta, and
the commander of that vessel will be in
command of the naval forces in the Hay
tian waters. Nothing has been heard
from the United States steamer Ossippee
since she sailed from Norfolk; but it is
thought at the navy department that she
has arrived at Port an Prince by this
time

SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Jan. IA
handsome and nicely dressed woman ar
rived in the city this afternoon from Or
lando, Fla, in search of her husband,
whose name she says is E. r. Williams.
She suspected that there was another
woman the case, and consultation of the
marriage record confirmed her suspicious.
On October last license was issued by
the county clerk to r. c. Williams and
Rosa L. Hughey. The deserted woman
at once recognized in the name of
Hughey, a woman who had been missing
from Orlando since Williams took his
departure. Williams was employed as
freight conductor here on the San An
tonic and Arkansas Pass road up to a few
weeks ago. He is now thought to be liv-
ing in Fort Worth or Waco, and warrants
for his arrest have been issued. His wife
is accompanied by their two little daugh-
tiers, aged eight and seven years. She
says she will prosecute him to the bitter
end

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Gen. Gros-

has looked after his client s interests ever

day that the order directing Gen. Swain

Senate Informed as to Samoan Afairs.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE examina-

Samoa, by the senate committee on
foreign relations has been practically
concluded, but he is held here to await
the printing of his testimony, when he
may be recalled upon some points sug-
gested by the reading of it. Mr.. Sewan
who is deeply interested in the Samoan
situation, is anxious to return to his post,
but is more anxious that the people of
the United States should arouse them
selves to an intelligent appreciation of
the Importance of maintaining the indie
pendence of the island in order to prop
erly maintain American interests there.

Special to the Gazette.
MINEOLA, TEX. Jan. 1.-THE west
bound passenger train this evening
picked up at Lake Fork, a switch nine
miles east of here, John Evans, who had
been run over by train sometime this
morning. His legs were fearfully man
gled. He lived about one hour after his
arrival here. The general opinion is that
he was run over by No. 2 this noon
but no one seems to know the exact
truth regarding what train did hit him.
His brother came in from his farm this
evening and took charge of his remains.
This morning a brakeman under Con-
ductOr Page on the International and
Great Northern was severely stabbed by a
negro tramp who was on the train. 1t
seems that there were four negroes steal
ing a ride i'll an empty car, and the
brakeman went forward to put them
out, when one of them drew a knife and
stabbed him eight times and then skip
ped, but was captured by the constable
at Lipdale and taken to Tyler for his
preliminary trial.

the senate subcommittee on finance in
charge of the tariff bill heard delegations
of carpet and wooden goods manufactur-
ers and of wool growers, the former of
whom desired certain notifications of the
wool schedule tending TO reduction of
some duties levied William Whitman
of Massachusetts spoke in behalf of the
manufacturers, and Columbus Delano of
Washington d. c.. ex-secretary of the
interior, for the wool growers. Their
views were at times widely divergent and
expressed with much vIgor. So far as
could be learned the arguments made no
change In the minds of the committee.
Senator Sherman proposed the follow
ing amendment to the bill which the
manufacturers now have under con-
sideration, and VIII express their opinion
upon before the committee tomorrow to
amend paragraph 344 to read as follows:
411-The duty on woods of the first
and third classes which shall be imported
washed shall be twice the amount of duty
to which they would be subjected if i'm
ported unwashed. The duty upon woods
of the second-class' which should

classified as secured wool, and shall pay
duty accordingly.
Before they left the room some of the
manufacturers asserted that such an
amendment meant the destruction of
their industry, and that as against it
they would work for free wool.

THE CAMPBELL CASE.
The Defendant Tells His Own
story.

The Defendant Tells His own
story.
The trial of Robert Campbell for the
killing Of Hugh Boyd, which was begun
before Judge Shaw on Tuesday, was con-
tinued yesterday. The prosecution hav.
ing put in all their testimony, the defense
took up that side of the case. Several
witnesses were put on to testify to the
bad character of Boyd, and that he made
many threats against the life of Camp
bell.
T. W. Lyons testified that q few nights
before the killing, he, Boyd and Camp.
bell were together in hut. Lyons did
not pay much attention to what was
going on, but Boyd and Campbell had a
bitter quarrel about dog. They drank
q good deal, swore good deal more, and
quarreled more than all. They would
quarrel about the dog and swear at each
other; then get I'D and take drink and
be good friends. This programme ran on
for some hours, during which they drank
two or three bottles of whiskey. At last
in one of these "cussings" and discuss
ings OF the dog, Boyd got up and struck
Campbell heavy blow, knocking him
down on the hearth of the cabin, where
the FIRE WAS burning. He then stamped
the heel of his boot into Campbsll's face
right over the bridge of his nose, with an
oath and threat to burn him up.
Campbell took the stand in his own
behalf. He said he was little more
than so years old, had been in California
a long time, was born in Nova Scotia,
etc., etc. He had known Boyd since
December year ago. He had gener-
ally been friendly to him, but had o
quarrel about dog. The fight on the
night before the killing was not sbout
the dog. He had been at Acton
and rain came on as he went home. He
went to this hut, where Lyons and Boyd
were. Lyons was charged with perjury
iu some testimony he gave in an arson
case just before. He was about to be
tried for the perjury. On the night OF the
quarrel Lyons asked him if he could not
swear that on the morning of the fire be
had seen man named Taylor and an.
other ride into Acton. Campbell said he
could not, as he had not seen these men.
Then Boyd wanted him to swear to the
proposed fiction, and struck Campbell
Los Angeles daily herald., 1889-10-24

because he would mot do 20. He struck
him twice, and Lyons and Boyd threat
ened to "cremate" him il he did not 90
Iswear. He ran out in the rain, and hid
in the brush. Boyd came out to look for
him, but could not find him in the dark.
He went under q shed and stayed till
morning with the horses.
On the day Of the killing Campbell
was riding home from Acton. A he
came to point in the road where there
was big bend he heard some one call
ing his name. It was Boyd. He stopped,
and Boyd came up to him saving, "You
you wouldn't help out
friend" Campbell tried to paeify him
by asking him for some tobacco. Boyd
threatened to take away Campbell's gun.
By this time they had come to whore
Foley and Capers were in the road. Boyd
went to house to get gun to 'shoot it
out" Foley came up and took Camp
BELLS gun and removed the caps from it.
Campbell said it was not right to take
the caps off his gun whom Boyd had gone
to get gun. Campbell rode
on to where the bend in the road
hid him from the others. There is
high hill here, and he thought if Boyd
got on top Of it with rifle he could
shoot him. So he rode back to whore
the others stood in the road. Just then
Boyd reappeared. As soon as he saw
Campbell he began to run toward him,
swearing at every step that he would
kill him, with all sorts Of foul eplthets
applied to him. When Campbell saw
Boyd coming he called to him to stop.
He threatened to shoot il he did not
stop. Boyd came right on, calling him
names and cursing him; When about
twenty feet of, Campbell leveled his gun
to one side and discharged one
Then Boyd called out "I knew you were

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

The Citrus Fair Arrangcments-En
tertaininE the senators.
Yesterday aftel loon at O'Clock the
Board of Directors of the Chamber of
Commerce met at its rooms on First
street. J. B. Lapkershim occupied the
chair, and in addition to number of tho
members of the board there were pres
ent William q. NJ. La Rue, of the State
Board of Agriculture, and General J. R..
Briefly.
The matter of the citrus fair was
taken under discussion and formal call
was iesued to all Boards of Trade, Cham
bers of Commerce, District Agricultural
Societies, County Fair Associations, cit.
rus fruit growers and all others interested
in citrus fruits in the Sixth Congressional
district to meet in the Chamber of Com
mercs rooms on Friday, the LIST of
November, at los. m. The gathering will
take into consideration the various ques-
tions with regard to the citrus fair to be
held in this city from March 10th to the
18th, and appoint such committees as are
necessary to make the affair success.
One matter which will probably be
given consideration at this meeting, and
which it was supposed would come up at
the meeting yesterday, is the appoint
ment of suitable Superintendent for the
fair. At the meeting of the State Board
of Agriculture at which Los Angeles was
decided upon as the proper site for the
fair, committee was hastily appointed
to manage it, and a Superintendent
elected. The committee consisted of J..
D. Carr, of Monterey, Christopher Green,
| Of Sacramento, and F. G. De Long,
Of Marin-all of them northern men. G.
W. Hancock was elected Superintendent
of the fair. He is also northern man,
his home being at Sacramento. It is the
opinion of many of the residents of this
section that inasmuch as the FIR is de.
voted to the citrus fruit interest of the
southern part of the State alone, the
Superintendent should have been chosen
from this section. By the pre-
visions of the act which made the ap-
preparation of $40, COO for the two cit, us
fairs, the money must be expended under
the direction of the State Board of Agri-
culture. There is no reason, however,
why the manager need be appointed out
Of the board.
The coming visit of the party of Sem
ators wc7 discussed by the board, and the
Committee on Visitors was requested to
be in attendance at the depot this morn
ing. This committee consists of Major
E. W. Jones, L. N. Breed, G. E. Day,
Judge W. F. Fitzgerald and Hervey
Lindley. This committee will be rein
forced by the Board of Directors, Poin-
dexter Dr7p, Col. S. o. Houghtop, Gen.
