ANOTHER OF CORRESPONDENT
THOMPSON'S LIES NAILED.
Minister Egan's House No Longer Guard
ed by Police-President Montt Making
a Triumphal Tour-Disquiet in Argen-
tine Over Today's Elections.

New YORK, Feb. 6.-The Herald's
Santiago correspondent says: 1t is al
most beyond belief that the London
Times should allow its correspondent
here to continue to send such gross mis-
statements concerning the United States
officials in this country. His latest
story about Minister Egan's house be-
ing guarded by police to protect him
from roughs, is entirely without founda-
ton.
President Montt is making tri-
umphal tour of the southern provinces,
Reports here received state that every
where he is treated with the greatest
honor, and the enthusiasm displayed
over his presence is unbounded.
The Herald Montevideo cable says
The Philadelphia. Admiral Gherardi, ar
rived today. 1t is reported Admiral
Walkers ships have been ordered home.
The Herald's Buenos Ayres cable
says: Throughout the Argentine re-
public the utmost disquiet prevails over
tomorrow's provincial elections, and the
general alarm seems only too well
founded, for the country is rent with
political feuds. The various political
parties are armed with revolvers and
cudgels. Intense anxiety is felt every
where in this city tonight.

A st. Louis Mans Crime-The Dying
Woman's Sensational Story.
CHICAGO, Feb. 6.-Michael Mcclure,
a restaurant keeper at 101 North Four
teenth street, st. Louis, tonight shot
and fatally wounded his mistress, Lizzie
Messangle, who had abandoned him for
an advertising agent named Frank Nc
Lain, and fled to this city. The girl is
handsome brunette, formerly wait
ress in McGuire's restaurant. She re-
ceived word that Mcclure was on her
track and secreted herself, but the res
taurant man found McLain and intimi-
dated him into showing the way to her
hiding place. Mcclure attempted to
force the girl to go with him, and she,
trying to run away, was stopped by
three bullets, one of which entered her
head.
1t is said that in st. Louis Mcclure
treated her with great cruelty for a
time, but latterly she had been pro-
tected through fear of exposure, he
having, while in liquor, told her after
the Adams express robbery that he had
harbored two of the thieves. There.
after, when threatened with violence,
she would remind him that she had it
in her power to betray him, and thus it
is said kept Mcclure in fear OF exposure.
The men harbored by McGuire were
Sly, Hedspeth and another name un-
known to the woman. Mcclure was
still at large at midnight.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. GA few days ago
Michael Mcclure, who killed his wife in
Chicago tonight, notified the police OF
his wife's flight with better looking
man and 5000 OF his (McGuire's money.
The police were unable to learn any
thing beyond the fact that the woman
ostensibly left for Chicago. With this
information Mcclure left. Mcclure
kept small restaurant, but he has no
local history OF consequence.

A SENSATIONAL STORY
BRoUGHT TO LIGHT BY FEDERAL
COURT PROCEEDINGS.
A Rich Californian Refuses to Pay for
His Insane Wife's Support-Another
Wife by Contract Sues Him for
$4,000 Damages for Desertion.

San FRANCISCO, Feb. 6.-An extraor-
dinary story has been brought to light
by suit filed yesterday in the federal
court in this city, by the st. Vincent
Institution for the Insane, at st. Louis,
Mo-, against John T. Davis, to recover
$5342 and interest for the care OF his
wife, Mary Ann Davis, from March 20,
1876, until October 20, 1891.
In 1870 or III Mrs. Davis, wife of a
Stockton ranchman. became insane and
was placed in the Stockton insane asv-
lum. She was then 80 years old, and
had little daughter. Some time after
Davis removed his wife to st. Louis,
placing her in care of the Sisters of
Charity until 1876. He then took her
from the asylum and few days later,
Mrs. Davis was found wandering alone
near Belleview, III. She was taken
back to st. Louis and placed in St. Vim
CENTS institute where she has remained
ever since.
Davis, after getting rid of his wife,
placed his little daughter with leople
in Stockton, named Matthews, and she
was brought up in the belief that her
mother was dead. John T. Davis, the
husband. prospered in the meantime,
and is now worth 100000, owning vast
property in the San joaquin valley and
San Luis Obispo county.
When the lunatics in care of the Sis
ters of Charity in ST. Louis were turned
over to st. Vincent's institute a few
years ago, the correspondence between
Davis and the mother superior was
found, and the institute last fall de-
manded reasonable sum from Davis
for his wife's maintenance. Davis
offered check for 5000, but the offer
was refused, and the suit followed.
In 1889 Davis was married by contract
to Miss Catherine +. Greeley, of West
Berkeley. Soon after Davis deserted
his contract wife, and she has brought
suit against him for $4,000, which is
now pending in the superior court at
Stockton.
1t is stated that Davis's real name is
Mordecai Vancil, which he does not
deny, and that he left Modesto. Hi
nois, under cloud. In 1881 Davis was
convicted of perjury in relation to a
promissory note, but in 1882 the su-
preme court reversed the decision.

A PORTUGUESE SENSATION.
Officers of High Rank Impeached fol
Financial Mismage

Financial Mismagement.
LISBON, Feb. 6.-After the cabinet
council today decree was issued dis
missing Oeito Carvalho, administrator
of general customs, from Office. 1t is
one of the most important offices in the
country, and the decree created Eensa-
ton. Carvalho had great influence,
both with the late and the present king
with whom he was also on terms Of in
timacy. Senior Carvalho, was formerly
minister OF finance.
In che cortes Arriega demanded the
impeachment of eA-Minister Carvalbo
and the appointment of a committee to
decide whether others also should be
impeached in connection with the rail-
way scandals. The proposition OF Arri-
ega was received with dead silence
and the discussion Of it reserved.
The action of the cabinet in dismiss
ing from his position Senior Carvalho,
administrator of general customs, is due
to that official concealing from the gov
ernment the fact that transit dues owed
to the state by the Royal Railway COM
pany had not been paid.
The motion made in the chamber of
deputies Yesterday demanding the inn
peachment OF Senior Carvalho, ex-min-
lister of finance, was referred to COM
mittee. The motion grew out OF Senior
Carvalho's action while holding the port
folio of minister of finance in advancing
to the Royal Railway company 13,000,-
900 francs on his own responsibility, and
without the knowledge of his colleagues.
About the middle of last month, Car
valho informed the council of ministers
what he had done, and the president of
the council laid the matter before the
cortes. The council of ministers presi-
dent said he declined to accept any
responsibility in the matter, and
Senior Carvalho resigned. The presi-
dent further declared that his efforts to
find a man who would accept the office
of finance minister, had failed, and
that consequence the whole
ministry resigned. Carvalho after
ward explained in both chambers the
nature OF his proceedings during his
term of office. He stated that he ar
ranged for payments amounting to IL 600
centos OF reis during his period, and
when he accepted the Office the only
resources available were 900 centos re-
naming from the tobacco loan. Senior
Caryalho was visibly affected in making
his statement. He said had his efforts
to save the country from financial dis
tress been realized, he would have been
hero.
