EARLY this morning George s..
Hicks, groceryman of this city, became
aware that an attempt was being made to

were greeted by shots from revolver in
the hands of Hicks. One of the men, whose
name is said to be Patrick Mahoney, other

CONGRESSIONAL FORECASTS.

What M ay be Accomplished by Con-
gress During the Present Week.
WASHINGTON. Special Appropriation
bills will occupy most, if not all, Of the SEN
ate during the week. The Indian, District
of Columbia ana legislative appropriation
bills will be discussed, and there is proba-
1bility that the Idaho statehood bill will
come up. The senate will probably adj
journ Thursday over the Fourth until Mon
day.
In the house the first three days Of the
week will be devoted to the consideration
ofthe election bill, which will be placed on
its passage Wednesday. No programme
for the remainder Of the week has been ar
ranged, but Thursday will probably be set
aside for the consideration of the national
bankruptcy bill, or possibly the compound
lard bill, and an adjournment will proba-
bly, be taken Thursday over the Fourth I'M
til the Monday following.
Thursday may possibly be consumed
with a conference report upon the silver
bill. 1t is not likely, though, that so early
an agreement on the silver bill will be
reached, and that this subject will not
come before the house again until the
following week. There is also ALWAYS q
possibility of a hitch in congressional pro-
sgrammes, and an unexpected debate on
some appropriation bill conference report
or some other at present unknown obstacle
may delay the final vote on the election
bill until Thursday instead OF Wednesday.

TROUBLE FEARED.

An European War Possible as the
Outcome Of Affairs in Armenia.
LONDON, Special.-Itis feared that Russia
may at last be compelled to take the initia-
tive step to protect the long-persecuted
Christians of Armenia. The Armenians
have repeatedly appealed in vain to En-
gland, Germany and Austria to uphold the
terms of the Treaty Of Berlin by compelling
Turkey to recognize the rights Of Arme-
mans as stipulated in that agreement of the
powers.
The danger now is that the conflict in
Erzeroum may lead to open rebellion all
over Armenia, in which event Russia would
undoubtedly take sides with the Christians
and seize Erzeroum, if not the whole Of
Armenia, thus bringing on the much
dreaded catastrophe OF a European war.
Russia at the present moment has a large
force within easy marhing distance of Ere
roum and could overrun the whole country
before any OF the powers could bring troops
into action. Information has been received
here that sporadic cases of instruction have
lately occurred in Armenia arising from the
intolerable conduct of the Turkish authori-
ties.
Private letters received from Armenia
give the most horrible details of cruelties
quite recently practiced by the Turkish au-
thorities on the Armenian peasants in the
district of Khanoos, between Bitlas and
Erzeroum.

"A Big Postage Bill.

From the New York World.
What do you think of a mans

said a clerk in the stamp department
of the post-ofice to a World reporter.
81 know an advertiser now in this
city whose stamp bill is often that
much. he pays $4,000 Office rent
for the quarters in which he carries
on his various businesses, too. As
soon as he gets company on it's feet
he sells it out, invents or thinks up q
a new speciality, or what purports to
be one, rigs up high-sounding name
for it, and the concern which it is
supposed to manufacture and sell
gets a new Office and sends out quite
a batch of circulars aud advertising
books and pamphlets. OF some Of
his pamphlets he orders 10000
copies. Where does he get list Of
names long enough and reliable
enough tojustify such an expenditure
in printing and postage? Well, he
owns every city directory and every
blue book, red book and elite book
published in North America. Healso
owns hundreds of dozens ofold let
tiers, which he makes a business of
buying all over the country. where
ever he can get hold of them, just for
the sake Of names and ad dresses they
contain and suggest. Does he make
money? You may infer an answer
from the fact that he paid $500, 900

LONDON. Special. The abandonment BY
the Salisbury cabinet of the compensation

of self-preservation, for it has been evident

Sofia, Special.-The sentence of death
pronounced upon Maj. Panitza for conspir-
Ing to overthrow the government was car
ried out to-day. On the arrival at the place
OF execution he made confession to the
chaplain. With firm step he walked to
the post alone and saluted the military Of

tree.
Just before the order to fire was given the
condemned man cried in loud voice,
Long live Bulgaria" The body of the
dead soldier was given to his widow. The
execution took place at the camp near this
city. All the officers attached to the camp
were present.
-Four regiments Of infantry, with bat

A Snake In HIS OveraIIs.

Our milkman, p. 81. Barber, has
the name Of being a good deal of a
srustler, but from what we hear he
rustled around his milking yard the
other night at a gait that beats any
record yet. He had put on his over-
alls, that had lain in his granary
through the day, and was well start
ed milking when he thought he felt
something on his milking stool. He
made a hasty glace, but Immediate
~ felt a commo ton in his overalls,
pant or underwear, he couldn't tell
which, and, dropping his pail ofmilk,
made q grab. 1t was a snake. And
the way Barber went around that
yard, hanging to the slack ofhis low
er raiment and trying to choke his
snakeship with one hand, while with
the other he was trying to disengage
said raiment, boots and all; from his
person, was, without doubt, a circus.
He was probably choking the wrong
end of the snake, for as soon as Bar
Der got the garments so far from him
that he dared let go his hold, the
snake made off at terrible rate.
Barber dropped his clothes, grabbed
one boot, and stocking ooted, start
ed in, and before that snake was kill

Legislation Needed in Order to
Acquire Such Land in Washing
ton.
WASHINGTON, Special Telegram
Some questions are under consideration
by the department. Of the interior here
which are of Importance to Washington
State to the extent that they involve title
to swamp lands in that state.
Representative Wilson had conference
Saturday with the secretary of the Interior
Assistant Secretary Chandler and Gen.
Shields, the attorney for this department
The most that can be said as to the result Of
the conference is that it was the sentiment
of the officials that the history and the laws
on the subject of swamp land grants and
those in Washington in particular, must be
carefully looked up before decision is
made.
At present there seems to be no law to
govern, and legislation may be needed
which shall settle definitely how swamp
lands may be acquired unless the secretary,
after the examination, holds that the
sovereignty of the state extends over these
lands.

Tomato.
Louis Palma, the man who shot and
dangerously wounded Cyrus Donate last
Saturday, was captured yesterday at
Azusa by Constable T. H. Hudson. The
prisoner was seen yesterday afternoon
by HERALD reporter, and in broken
English gave his version of the affair as
follows: "The baker refused to leave
bread as usual on Saturday morning.
My wife asked him why, and he replied
that the groceryman had instructed
him not to supply them any more. l
got up and inquired what the matter
was. He asked me to give up all the
tickets left and he. would give me money
for them. l then put on my clothes,
kissed my baby and went to the grocery
store. Donate was sweeping out the
store. asked him why he told the
baker not to leave me any bread.
He denied that he had done so, when l
offered to bet him $40 that he had au-
thorized the baker. not to leave any
bread at my place. " put the money on
the counter, but Donate refused to bet.
We had a few words when Donate
pulled off his coat and struck me across
the face. | stepped back and then shot
Donate. That is the straight story Of
the shooting"
Donate is reported to be in preca-
rious condition. Palma also states that
Donate attempted to cinch him in the
matter OF bread supply. The baker sup
piled him bread at 8 cents loaf, and
the scheme was to make him pay 5 cents
to the grocer.

Some Letters from Dennis Are Read and
the Case Continued.
The $4,000 damage suit of Miss Jessie
Marshall against Jacob Taylor of Del
Mar was continued yesterday before
Judge Mckinley. Miss Jessie Marshall,
the complainant, finished her story. She
read in all thirty-six letters, which were
signed by Dennis O'Brien, young man
who is alleged to have acted for the de-
fendant, Jacob Taylor.
In these epistles the writer urged Miss
Marshall to prosecute her suit, and he
would assist her financially. He told
how he was about to be divorced from
his wife, and was arranging to get all of
his property out of his hands, so as to
avoid paying alimony. He frequently
expressed affection for Miss Marshall,
and intimated that the people of River
side, Del Mar and other towns in that
section were fully satisfied Taylor
was the father of the child and that their
opinion of him was not of the highest
order.
The court adjourned at noon out of
respect to the memory of H. M.
Mitchell, until this morning, when Miss
Marshall will be cross-examined.
