aged three years, the expected death of
second, aged five, and the possible
fatal burning of herself She poured
oil on the kindling and coal in her
kitchen stove, then lighted it. There
was terrific explosion, and the burning
oil was thrown over herself and two chill
dren, who were playing on the floor.
Mrs. Leray picked up her children,
whose clothing were in flames, and
ran out of the house With the
children in her arms she tried to smother
the flames, and while thus heroically
lighting the flames every shred of clothes
on the boy were burned off, finally help
came and the woman fell exhausted and
burned to the ground. The children
were taken from b. arms, which held
them so closely that it was almost i'm
possible to open them. The flames had
burned and stiffened some of the cords
so she could not release the children.
The flames were then extinguished, when
1t was found that the youngest child had
died IN its mothers arms. 1t was burned
so terribly that it was necessary to bury
1t to-day. The other child had inhaled
the flames and death is momentarily ex-
pected. while the mother, if she lives.
will be frlghtfully marked and crippled
BY great efforts the house was saved.

They took holiday, allowed the
city to take care of itself and worked
like everything for the bonds.
II the bond proposition carries they
will all have good time again.
But at the expense of the tax payers
and the children of the tax payers.
The election started in quietly in
the eight wards of the city, promptly
at S o'clock. The morning was con-
sumed and light vote had been
polled.
The proposition was not popular in
the wards east of the river and on
the west side the proposition seemed
ahead in two of the wards, though
running close to keep on the track.
There we're no saloons closed, no
fights, no bond arguments. The
anti-bond men had their sentinels
posted and the work Of challenging
went on quite bravely in some of the
wards.
Up to / o'clock the result was as
follows as nearly as can be summed
up:
Ward No lat John U. Mueller's
store, corner of Arsenal and S. nth
Flores streets, IS votes were polleu.
The voting going against the bonds.
Ward No. 2, corner Of East and
Dolorosa streets-104 votes were
polled. Voting in favor of the bonds.
Ward No. 8. corner of Perez and
Frio streets-120 votes poIled. Voting
about equal on each side.
Ward No. 4, at Krisch's hall-l5O
votes were polled, and the proposition
was not carried, but rather showed
under q little.
Ward No. 5, at Sommer's garden,
on 10Th street.-The number of votes
cast was II. This poll will 60 about
two to one against the proposition.
Ward No. 6. corner of Elm and No
Ian streets-l44 votes were cast. The
result as predicated thereon will be
to / against the proposition.
Ward No. 7, at corner of Victoria
and Mstagorda streets the
vote polled showed 112 with a
very heavy negative to the PROPOSE
ton. The result is estimated about s
- In this ward.
Ward No. Sooner of Alamo and
South streets, about so votes had been
dropped into the slot. These were
about as 40 to so in the ratio as against
the proposition.
This morning. at the I'd ward polls,
corner East and Dolorosa streets, a
Mexican voted who was said to have
sold his land over six months
ago and therefore was not q
taxpayer at present. His vote was
challenged by the anti. bond men but
the judge refused to swear him and
his vote passed. This made the anti
bond men feel little sore.
In ward an anti-bond man, who
had his homestead in his wife's
name, was not allowed to vote, while
another, on the other side of the
fence, but in the same fix, was recog.
nized.
At one poll an unnaturalized Eng.
lishman made himself particularly
conspicuous working for the PROPOSE
ton.

All the parties interested ia the litigation
against the surviving partners Of the firm Of
Newman & LevinsOn appeared yesterday
morning before Judge Hebbard, who was to
have heard on its merits the matter Of the
appointment OF receiver.
MIR. Philbrook, for the administrator of
the Levinson estate. made a statement CT
the proceedings had in the case up to this
time. and urged that under the circum-
stances it were better 10 have the matter
transferred to some other Judge, Judge
LAWYER who made the original orders in the
case, conserving, and Judges CARRIER and
Coffey having both been mentioned to un-
dertake the hearing.
Judge Hebbard said that the grounds of
objection to proceed with the hearing in his
department were absolutely groundless, and
he gave both sides 10 minutes to ascertain
what the orders of the Presiding Judge
would be. and such orders would be re-
spected. thing which the counsel fer the
administrator in the case had not done.
Both sides cOnsenting to Judge CARRIER as
trial Judge, an order of transfer to his de-
partment was obtained, and the matter will
come up for hearing before him in the due
course of affairs.
