force to break down the retaining wall, and
the whole volume Of oil spread in burning
mass over the surface Of the river. The
tide was ebbing and a stiff breeze carried
the blazing mass down the river Great ex-
eitement followed among the shipping men.
Tugs were hastily summoned 10 tow away

After hard work the largest vessels were
towed away to places Of safety. The bark

THE HILLEBRAND MYSTERY.
A Decided Improvement In the COndi
tIon of the wounded Man.

A Decided Improvement in the Condi-
tIoD of the wounded Man.
Henry Hiilebrand, the Eddy-street grocer
who was shot by an unknown party, stands
good chance for recovery.
Dr.. G.. B. Somers, police surgeon, who was
seen at the Receiving Hospital yesterday,
stated that his symptoms were more favor
able.
He passed quiet night, sleeping well.
and was stronger and. unless serious re-
lapse takes place, he had no doubt that he
will before leng be ont Of danger.
When seen at the hospital yesterday he
looked better than on Saturday ana was
able to answer q few inquiries about his
condition, but could give no more definite
information as to the identity of his as
sailants.
Mrs Hillebrand was seen at the home
at 17l2 Eddy street in the afternoon and
said they had been Unable to obtain any
more information about the would-be mur-
derers. She was satisfied. however, that
the attack was made purely from motives
of revenge.
There could be no other reason for it.
The fact was tGat the men had planned
everything so carefully that she could az
rive at no other conclusion.
Ii robbery had been the motive they would
never have used a revolver. especially of
such large ealiher because sandbag
would have been much better weapon to
use.
Nothing would have been easier than TO
have asked to go into the rear room and
take drink, when he would have had TO
strike light, as the room was in darkness,
and then they would have had him COM
p!etey at their mercy.
Instead Of that they shot at once, but did
their work very bunglingly. not like old
hands. When their work was finished they
did not even try to secure what money
there was anu which could easily have been
reached. but leit their victim for dead.
Then it was not probable that any one for
! motives of robbery would have paid cut 81
fcr buggy, when the most they could Sc
cure would be less than $40.
She was satisfied that the act had been
committed by some one melted thereto by
Hile bra nd'S enemies, and she thought by a
man named Peters.
One reason for this belief was that some
time ago when Hille6rand went to see
Peters. the latter picked up fiat iron such
as tailoIs use and threatened TO brain him
with it.
That was on the last occasion that Hille-
brand had called on his creditor, but she had
herself called since but could get no salts
faction.
Hillebrand had always striven to pay bis
debts, she said, and always intended to, and
if only given time would have Straightened
every thing out.
Gustav Guy. the son-in-law, reiterated
these statements, but both declared that
the assassin was neither Peters nor his son
but some one hired by them for that pur-
pose.
The police have not yet found any trace
of tho shooter, but still holds that the crime
was the work of robbers.

EDUCATION AND FREEDOM.
The Schools of Our Country the Founds

The Schools of Our Country the Founda-
tion of Americas Success.
"Our Public Schools, the Bulwark Of Our
Freedom" was the subject of the sermon
by Rev. A. G. Hirst at Simpson Memorial
Episcopal Church last night. This subject
was chosen at the request of the American
Patriotic League, of whom large number
were present. and when the services COM
meneed the church was well filed.
The speaker began by stating that 1t was
an opportune hour for the discussion OF
this subject.
Corruption" he said, "has reached such
point in the city of San Francisco that
every honest citizen must strike telling
blow. This city is now in the hands of un-
scrupulous bo0dlers, roughs and scouu-
drels. who have stolen the peoples money
in such a deit manner that it is impossible
to bring them to the justice they deserve.
San Francisco Is too great a prize for
them to let go without struggle. short
time ago this city was taken out Of the
hands OF one set of r0gues only to be handed
must be crushed out, and it is the duty of
every honest man TO purge them from the
city's government.
Thank God" he continued, "there are
men who cannot be bought Dy office, and to
them urge giving the control of San Frau
cisc0'S public affairs.
The Bosses" he said "are attempting to
control the public schools, and it would be
the greatest calamity to the country should
the schools be turned into political
machine"

was in the congregation. and at the con-
clusiOn of Mr.. Hirsps address made a few
remarks OD the subject she has at heart.
She urged the necessity Of aid in educat-
ing the eight million negros in the Southern
States. and unless they were lifted up by
education they would pull their white
brethren down. Instead of advancing since
the passage of the emancipation act they
are sinking lower. and she implored that
something be done to aid in that work.
The American flag, she related, was not an
emblem of freedom to them, nor could it be
such unless they had the privileges OF an
