The society then numbered eighty-one members, and it had a normal and steady growth until about twelve years ago when the names of four hun .dred and thirty-three members were re- corded upon its books. Since then, ow- ing partly to the removal of many of it's SUD- porters further towards the suburbs of the city and partly to other causes, the membership has declined, until at 8 meeting of the trustees last October it.wasl decided to dispose of the prop to this sum choice lot was purchased upon the corner of Orange and Edward street where the Methodists will soon proceed to erect a church building in consonance with the fine surround ings of this part of the city.

worth, William Benning and Andrew
Young, all residents of San Diego. Cal. have
been appointed appraisers by the United
States district court to appraise the Itata
The appointment was made 50 as to allow
the owners or other persons interested in her
to furnish bond for her appearance when
the case against her may be called for trial
The assent to this course was
given by Attorney General Miller.
The vessel being bonded, her bonds
men will be responsible in the amount given
if the vessel should fail to turn up when the
trial begins, aud the vessel In the meanwhile
can be used for some purpose instead of
being compelled to stay at her wharf idle
This is the rule followed by the court in
admiralty cases, except when a vessel is
seized for violation OF the neutrality laws
when, if the seized vessel we're released she
could resume the very work she was seized
for attempting to do. All these conditions
having been passed in the case Of the Itata,
owing to the victory of the insurgents
party in Chile. there could not be any
objection to the release Of the vessel on
bond. The bonding of the vessel as con-
templated has no other significance than

The Prosecution OF Certain Papers
Abandoned.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-Attorney Gen.
eral Miller was to-day asked by reporter
about the prosecutions recently commenced
ia Milwaukee. Wis. against the publishers
of certain newspapers there for sending
through the mails their papers reproducing
from the San Francisco Examiner and Bos-
ton Herald an argument against the
validity Of the anti-lottery law
passed by the Fifty-frst congress.
These prosecutions, the Attorney General
said, he had directed dismissed. THE
articles" he said, "were published and re.
published with the evident purpose of at
tempting to create public sentiment against
the law rather than to advertise the busi-
ness of any lottery company. In my opin-
ion the law was not directed against tae
circulation of such publications in the
mails, aud the prosecutions, therefore,
were ill-advised, and ought not to be con-
tinued. While 1 am in favor of prose-
cutting vigorously every infraction OF the
law, Whether direct or evasive, l think re-
fusal of the use Of the mails to papers dis
cussing principles or policy Of law Is un-
warranted, and would hurt rather than
help the cause in the interest OF which the
law was enacted"

man whose name is unknown. Corintha

family, aged II, was overcome with smoke,
and 1t is feared she cannot recover.
THE STARTING POINT.
The fire started in the rear of the first
floor, occupied by William Keaftz as a
bakery, and is supposed to have caught from
one Of the bake ovens. It spread TO q shed
in the rear, in which there was a quantity
of hay and straw. Thence it ran up the
rear stairway and into the sleeping rooms
on the second and third floors. The front
rooms on the second floor were occupied by
John Rondo, his wife and two children. all
of whom escaped without injury. The rear
was occupied by Mr.. Keaftz, owner Of the
bakery, and two bakers named Kegenstein
and Rosefeld The Soak and Burns faui-
lies occupied the rear of the third floor.
RESCUED BY FIREMEN.
Burns and his wife and three of their
children were rescued by firemen. Keafitz
aud his family escaped from the second
floor by means Of a ladder. When the
rooms of the Scalk family were reached it
was found that they all were unconscious.
Mrs. Scalk and Corintha gave evidence Of
life. but the mother died before patrol
wagon arrived. The family was smothered
not burned to death. The financial loss is
insignificant.
