Nothing of any account was done in the

THE OLD, OLD STORY,
claus Spreckels Has Not United With
the Sugar Trust.

claus Spreckels Has Not United With
the Sugar Trust
PHILADELPHIA, March 81. G. A..
Spreckels, son of Claus Spreckels, said
today that the reported agreement be-
tween his father and the sugar trust,
was without foundation. He added that
his father would not make deal with
the trust. That report had been re-
peatedly circulated and denied, and
there was no more reason for talking
about the matter now than some time
ago. The refinery here would be oper-
ated as an independent concern and
would not be sold to the trust, or aban-
doned.
New YORK, March 3l.-The dispatch
from San Francisco stating that the
Havemeyers had made an agreement
with Claus Spreckels, dividing the ter
ritory and ending competition, caused a
sharp advance in the price OF sugar
stock. The officials of the trust. how
ever, deny the statement. Neither III.
0. Havemeyer nor Theodore Havemeyer
has been on the Pacific coast recently.
II. O. Havemeyer says: There is not
one word of truth in it; there never has
been a war with Claus Spreckels; there
has been no compact made and no di-
vision of territory. Ii anything has
been done, it is a private matter with
Havemeyer & Elder, and has nothing to
do with the American company. II
there are any negotiations on foot, it is
a private matter with Havemeyer x
Elder"
Theodore Havemeyer and Treasurer
Searles also denied that any deal had
been made, and sad that if deal had
been made, it was with the Havemeyel
& Elder company, and not with the
truct

WE ARE THE PEOPLE.
The Result of Small "Ad." in the
"Herald."


There are great many people under
the impression that the small or classi-
fed advertisements in daily paper are
not read by the public. To show the
utter fallacy OF such an impression it is
only necessary to refer to one of the re-
suits of placing small advertisement
in the HERALD classified columns.
The day before yesterday pioneer OF
Los Angeles, and the owner of one OF
the largest buildings, placed a small ad-
vertisement in the HERALD to run two
days, in which those who answered the
advertisement were asked to address a
certain box in the HERALD Office. Yes
terday morning when the gentleman
called to see if there were any answers
to the advertisement he was politely
handed some forty letters, many coming
from different parts of the county. By
evening fully as many more accumulate
ed, which are still at the Office The
advertiser was surprised, and recog-
nizes that the HERALD has got large
circulation, and that its advertising col
umns are invaluable.

The Kincaid Trial.

WASHINGTON, March 31.-In the Kin
caid trial this morning, the defence
confined itself to an attempt to prove
that Taulbee made threats against Kin
caid, ard that those threats had been
communicated to the defendant. The
most important witness was Mrs. Mary
Millmore, who testified that on the day
of the shooting, Donnellson had told her
of the difficulty between Taulbee and
Kincaid, and had said Taulbee had
warned Kincaid to arm himself he had
also told her that he had been with
Taulbee good part OF the day in order
to keep him away from Kincaid.
Before adjournment number of other
witnesses testified as to threats made
by Taulbee against Kincaid, and OF
Taulbee telling him he better arm him

On motion of w. Crawford, ESQ.,, the
attorney for the defendant, in the va
grancy case against M. j. Riley, the
trial OF that action was yesterday con-
tinued by Township Justice Stanton un'
til Monday next. -.

Ronded Sugar.

CHICAGO, March 31.-It is estimated
that there are more than 100000 barrels
of sugar in bond in Chicago awaiting
the operation OF the Mckinley law,
which will remove the duty from it at
midnight, tonight. The custom house
will remain open all night in order that
permits may be issued promptly, and by
tomorrow morning most OF this sugar
will be on the way to retailers.
New YORK, March 31.--The duty on
sugar comes off at II O'Clock tonight,
and the wholesale stores will open then
to meet the demands of the retailers.
The difference OF two cents a pound will,
it is anticipated, result in enormous
sales, as the retail market is practically
bare Of stock.

CHANGE OF FLAGSHIPS.
Admiral Brown Transfers His ColOrs to
the San Francisco.

SAN Francisco, March 3l.-This
morning the ceremonies attending the
transferring of Admiral Browns flag
from the Charleston to the San Fran
cisco took place at Mare Island. The
arrival of the admiral was acknowledged
by salute of nineteen guns from the
cruisers battery. This change now
makes the San Francisco the flagship OF
the Pacific squadron, and the command
of the Charleston passes to Captain
Remey.
The Charleston will soon follow the
San Francisco to Chile. She put pow
der aboard on Monday, and is coaling
today. 1t is believed she will go on
Monday next, and try her long eight
Founders before proceeding south. The
Charleston's armament is much more
formidable than the flagship.

arguing for change of venue. The at

A Horrible Butchery Committed.

"A f1OFFlDlC NutCnery COmmILteus
JOSHUA. Texas, July 14.-This morn
ing at / O'Clock two men went to the
home of G orge Newberry, living two
miles west of Joshua, and demanded al.
mittance. Newberry being absent his
mother supposed that it was him re-
turning and opened the door. The mon
forced their way into the house and de
handed the money they supposed had
been received by Newberry a few days
previous. The old lady told them che
had no money about the house. They
then grabbed the old lady, who is IS
years old, took her to the yard gate and
tied her with q rope to a post and then
gashed her throat. One man remained
with the old lady Oh the outside while
the other went into the house where
CHILDREN WERE SLEEPING.
The Oldest, aged7 years, was awakened
When the man asked her where her
papa's money was, the child told him
she would tell her father of his trying to
get his money. He took her out of the
house into the yard aud cut her throat
with a butcher knife. He then went
back into the house and got the second
girl aged 5 years and carried her to the
yard and out her throat with the same
knife. He then went back to the house
and got the baby, 2 years old, carried
him into the yard and killed him IN the
same manner and piled the bodies to.
gether. He then washed the knife and
left it lying on the table. The old lady's
neck has seventeen gashes. but she is
living and gave an account of the affair.

Favorable Change in Army Regulations

Favorable Chan&e IN Army AAc4u'sAuAo''s
WASHINGTON, July 14.-Ever since
public and official attention was directed
to the subject of the FIRE quency of deser-
tions from the army, u year or so ago,
there has been O determined effort on
the part of the authorities to improve
the quality of the material with which
the service was recruited in the belief
that in this lay q remedy for the grave
evil for which cause was SO diligently
sought. Extra endeavors were made to
Q young men who sought the army
az q profession rather than q haven OF
refuge. and to this end efforts of recruit
ing officers have been systematically
turned away from cities toward the coun-
try. The new system has just begun to
SHOW IT FRUITS,
and is more than justifying the expecta-
tions of those who inaugurated it An
officer of the adjutant generals depart
ment, who has charge of the work, re:
marked recently: 1--WE are having good
luck with our later recruits, and think
the army is today composed of a better
class of people than ever before. We
have abandoned the city field almost
entirely for the country, where we are
more apt to find vigorous young men
free from contamination of the rough
life of towns, eager to do we'll and to
wear ohevefans. Sach men make good
soldiers-far better than the old, hard.
ened toughs who come out of the slums
to enlist as the last resort or as the

Superstitious Railroad Men.

Another tragic point on the Hous-
ton and Texas railroad is Elm creek
bridge. tits in a creek bottom, a few
miles south of Corsicana, where a
convictemployed in the construction
ofthe road was killed while attempt
ing to escape. The tradition is that
the unfortunate man was crammed
in a water barrel, head down, and
buried in scandalous haste. The SUI
perstitious think they can see his
misty chest as it fits across the track
in front of the engine, ominous ofevil.
Here accident after accident has oc-
cured; many engineers and firemen
have lost their lives or been crippled
for good, and thousands OF dollars
worth of rolling stock and merchan-
disc has been destroyed. The train
men have therefore changed the name
OF the place to Bad Medicine. and de-
clare that these calamities will be
perpetual until the convict is exhum-
ed and buried horizontally. so as to
destroy his chances to kick at the
road which cost him his life here be-
low.

Cigars This Year.
From the New York Sun.

Thomas c. Delano, an authority
on cigars and tobacco, although not
directly interested in the trade fl
n%ancially. has just returned from
Key West and Cuba. He says that
the output from Key West of cigars
this year will be 10000, 600. Some
years ago, he says, Connecticut seed
leaf was regarded by domestic man
ufacturers, and even by some in Key
West, as standing next to Havana
leaf for cigar wrappers. 1t brought
a high price. But the Connecticut
tobacco farmers have killed their to-
