A RALLY AT LONG BEACH
DEMOCRATS TURN OUT EN MAssE
AT THE PAVILION
Able Speeches Delivered by w. A. Ryan,
j. DeBarth Shorb and Others.
Mr.. Dillon Receives
an Ovation.

special 10 the Herald.
LONG BEACH, Oct. 20.--The Democrats
OF Long Beach and the surrounding
country turned out this evening to hear
the candidates on the Democratic coun-
ty ticket place themselves on record.
The tabernacle was crowded to listen to
the remarks that were made. Two
bands were present to furnish music,
and the Ramirez family was also pres
ent to give instrumental music.
TIL platform was artistically draped
and festooned with the national colors,
and the large building was full of en-
thusiastic Democratic.
NJ. @. Holman acted as president of
the meeting. The first speaker he in
troduced was w. A. Ryan OF Los Ange-
les. Mr.. Ryan did not discuss national
Issues, but confined himself exclusively
to local matters. He assailed the adj
ministration OF the county government
in the bitterest terms, proving each
charge that he made with facts
and figures. Mr.. Ryan's remarks were
received by his auditors with favor, and
he undoubtedly made numerous Demo-
cratic votes. He charged the board of
supervisors with malfeasance in Office,
and demonstrated it beyond any ques-
tion.
]. DeBarth Shorb made a mastery
speech, and was enthusiastically re-
ceived.
Mr.. Brewer, as our next supervisor,
was given the unqualified support of this
district, as was Mr.. Cullen, who is sure
to be next county clerk, as the old one
armed veteran is great favorite.
Many of Long Beach's fairest danes
were present, and they, as was right,
took as much interest Id theproceedings
as the men. N
At the mention of Mr.. Dilon's name
for district attorney, the house fairly
came down.

dents:. Capt G. M. Walker, w. s.

A CHANGE FOR THE WORSE.
MIS- Harrison's Condition Very Critical
A Sad Wedding Anniversary.


A Sad Wedding Anniversary.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. 2O-A change
for the worse in the condition of Mrs.
Harrison has taken place, and tonight
she is weaker than at any previous time
since her illness began. She ia greatly
exhausted and cannot turn her head on
the pillow. Her cough is said to have
increased in volume. This, coming in
paroxysms, has a very depressing and
exhauetlng, effect ON the patient. and
tends to reduce her vitality.
Mrs Harrison passed comparatively
quiet day, and did not suffer 80 much
from nervousness. She experienced
more difficulty than usual, however, in
taking nourishment, which has hereto
lore been taken with systematic regu-
larity.
Although she is in such very weak
state, yet the attending physician said
tonight he did not apprehend any inn
mediate fatal result, and thought it
PROBABLE that by morning she might
rally and regain some of her lost
strength.
Today was the thirty-ninth anniver-
sary OF the marriage of President and
Mrs. Harrison, but the illness of the
latter preeluded any recognition of the
occasion outside of the family circle, and
it was marked by extreme sadness.
At 10 o'clock Mrs. Harrison rallied
somewhat from her severe prostration.
Her condition is 80 precarious that she
may pass away within few hours.

plosion, R. B. Hutchison, of Oakdale, who
owns the cleaning establishment, was called
upstairs by Cox, who wanted him to look at
the boiler. 1t was small tubular affair,
and had been examined twice by the In
spectors, the last time only two weeks ago,
when it was pronounced in good condition
The Boiler Appeared All Right.
Mr.. Hutchison says when Cox called
him into the room to examine the boiler
yesterday, he noticed a peculiar kissing
noise, but upon examination found that
only q pipe connection had been loosened,
and the steam was escaping. He looked at
the gauge, and found it registered 60
pounds and says the loose pipe, in his
opinion, would not have caused the acci-
dent Later he suggested that the feed
pipe may have been frozen up, thus shut
ting off the water supply.
Mr.. Hutchison then left the building, and
soon after the explosion occurred. Immedi-
stely horrifying sight was presented to
those on the streets below, attracted by the
sound of the explosion. Two large holes
were burst in the front and rear
walls, while flying pieces of the
boiler wrecked everything IN the
room, or tore holes in buildings
nearby. Clouds of hot steam poured from
the windows and great gap in the walls,
and as this steam gradually foated away
murmur of fear and pity ran through the
crowd below. Young Shaw, his white face
bruised and bleeding, was hanging head
downward from the gap in the wall
Fortunately he was unconscious and did
not struggle and hung in his terrible con-
dition until rescued sometime after by the
fremen.
Blown Through Brick Wall.

DRIVING OFF THE YANKEES.
British Employing German-SamOan Tactics
In the Gilbert IsIands

British Employing German-samoan Tactics
In the Gilbert Islands.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dee. 29.-[ Special J.
captain NJ White, of the schooner Maid of
orleans, arrived to-day 40 days from the
GllDert Islands. He brings some interest
ing news about the islands over which the
British established protectorate last June.
Old King Jeburiemow, who had just re-
turned from visit to San Francisco, pro-
tested against this usurpation by the
British, as he preferred the Americans and
wished to have the United States extend
protection to him. After the British an
nexed the islands the King sent an ap-
peal to President Harrison, but this
appeal was Kept here by Captain Luttrell,
who feared that if it went east and was
published in Europe it would lead to the
Kings deposition Captain White SAYS
that for three days before his vessel sailed
the old King spent his time on board beg
ging him to do something in this country
to restore the islands to their former con-
dition.
1t seems the natives have been so excited
since the British protectorate that they
have refused to gather any copra. They have
also been melted BY English traders to in
trigue for the Kings removal in favor of one
of his sons, who is partial to the British. The
result is that the island trade is demoral-
lied. The old King has only few follow
ers, and at any time Is liable to be deposed.
The English are trying to drive away
American traders, and pursuing the same
tactics that the Germans employed in
Samoa

Causes a Terrible Grade Crossing Accident
in Chicago-An Engine Crashes Into
Street Car-Four Persons Killed Out
right-Many Injured.
CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-Four persons were
Killed and twice that number injured TINS
morning by the collision of a Pittsburg ano
Fort Wayne passenger train with heavily
loaded street car at the junction OF Forty
seventh street and Stewart avenue The
engineer of the train and the two watchmen
at the crossing are under arrest, pending an
investigation of the accident
-Four persons were killed: George blana'
Archibald McAndrews, an unknown man
and an unknown woman. Twelve persons
were seriously injured.
The accident happened at 6:15 o'clock,
when the street car traffic was at its heaviest,
and the cars were crowded to the door. AS
the car approached the Fort Wayne tracks
an engine came backing down at the rate OF
about 10 miles an hour. The occupants OF
the engine cab did not see the car approach
Ing the crossing, and on account OF frost on
the windows of the car, the passengers dld
not see the engine bearing down upon them.
In an instant the engine struck the car and
passed on, leaving a trail of dead and In
Jured people. The car was dragged about
$50 yards and every foot of the distance
some injury was added to those inflicted
when the engine first struck the car. The
horses became detached from the car and
ran away uninjured.
As soon as the police arrived on the scene
four persons were placed under arrest. These
are Conductor O'Connor and Driver STAN
ley, who were on the street car, and Engi-
neer Rosscup and Fireman Meager, of the
train which did the damage. The officers
then, turned their attention to the employees
OF the railroad who are responsible for
guarding the crossing. There are two of
them, Peter Schwartz, who is in the tower
at the crossing, and John Albright, who
guards the tracks from the ground level.
Both denied that thev were responsible for
the accident, but both, with the four other
prisoners, were at once locked up. ALL
bright is the same watchman who was en-
ployed in the same work at that crossing
several months ago when similar accident
resulted in the death of two persons and
the injury of others,

MONEY NEVER REDEEMED.

Millions of Dollars Lying UncaI1ed for In
the Treasury vaults-Fractional Notes
That Win Never Get Back in Uncle
Sans Hands-Lots of Money Burned
Up.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-In all that has
been recently written about the depleted
condition of the United States Treasury,
little or no account has been taken of the
fact that, with each passing year, the Treas
ury is large gamer by the complete de-
struction by casualty of its outstanding OBJ
legations How much this amounts to.
what percentage each year, etc, the best
statisticians of the Treasury Department
have no means of definitely ascertaining
Since 1862, when the Government began
to issue paper money, $5,sl9, ,629, 10S have
been issued of all kinds and denominations
up to July 1, 1892. Within the same period
81, 852, 451, ,629 have been redeemed, leaving
outstanding, July 1, 1892, as 9 liability
against the Government, 1867, III, ,479. The
basis for the redemption of this vast sum of
paper varies-gold for the gold certificates,
silver for the silver certificates, 500, 900, 900
in gold as a reserve for certain notes, and
so on.
Much Money Never to Be Redeemed.
All this money is kept in the vaults
awaiting the presentation of the paper for
redemption. But much of this paper will
never be presented, In an exhaustive in
quiry on this subjec made by United States
Treasurer Hyatt, it was estimated that the
aggregate loss on all the issues up to JAN
uary, 1883, would not be less than SS, 700,-
000 This estimate did not include the
cent and 5-cent shinplasters-in such ex-
tensive circulation for the few years follow
ing the war.
Secretary Sherman construed the act of
June q, 1879, as stating that S8, ,9S4 of
fractional currency issued under various
acts had been destroyed, and the debt
statement as issued monthly carries a debt
bearing no interest, but Sc, 903. 462 60 of this
fractional currency. United States Treas
urer Nebeker however, carries the full
amount on his book, and in his report this
year states that more than SIS, ,000,0 900 of
this fractional currency is outstanding,
though it has practically gone out of circu-
lation, and but little more than 81 900 was
presented for redemption last year.
Kept by the Coin Collectors.
What is outstanding is held to great ex =
tent bv collectors of coin and paper cabi-
nets, and its value as such is greater than
its face value in money
The aggregate of United States currency,
fractional and otherwise, estimated to have
been destsoyed and not likely to be pre-
sented for redemption approximates by
these figures more than S14, 900, 600. A re-
cent estimate prepared by the Treasury
Department places the sum as high as S20,-
0GO, 900. This money can only be taken out
of the liabilities of the Government by
Congressional enactment This will prob
ably be attempted in the near future. The
investigation into this subject has shown
that most of the money lost has been de-
troyed IN railroad wrecks that caught fire,
though no inconsiderable quantity has been
destroyed by fires that occurred in country
banks, postofices and residences.

A CIVIL SERVICE SNAG.
One Reason Why the Republicans Now in
Some Offices Cannot Be Entrenched,

One Reason Why the Republicans Now in
Some Offices Cannot Be Entrenched,
WASHINGTON, Dec. pa gentleman
who has talked with the President on the
subject says the people who are expecting q
large increase in the classified civil service
before the administration changes will be
very sadly disappointed. He said the Presi-
dent is strongly inclined to extend the civil
service rules in connection with the Post
Office Department, but that he has practic-
ally abandoned the purpose of any general
extension such as the inclusion OF employees
of the Government Printing Office or the
customs service. All employees now outside
the protecting lines of the civil service
regulations are using every endeavor to
have themselves entrenched against Demo-
cratic interference, but so far without
success
There is snag in the way of extension
of the civil service classification to the Gov
ernment printing Office. 1t is understood
to be the desire of the President and of the
Civil Service Commission that the office
should be brought within the civil service
classification, but there is trouble before
them in the form of opposition by the Tvpo-
graphical Union. The objection to the ex-
tension of the service is made that if ap-
pointments are made upon any form of ex-
animation which does not recognize men,
bership of the union as q necessary quslifi-
cation it will result in what the union
would call "rats" getting into Government
employ. The Government is hardly pre-
pared to declare that none but union men
shall be qualified for employment, and the
union will certainly object to any employ
ment within that class of persons not be-
longing to the union.

SULLIVAN MAKES A SPEECH.

He Gives Corbett Little Dab for Refusing
to Fight, but Commends His Clear Brain
The Ex-Champion Will Never Fight
Again.
NEW YORK, Dec. 29-An enthusiastic
audience which filed the Windsor Theater.
where John L. Sullivan is playing, was
treated to a stirring speech by the ex-
champion, which lasted five minutes. Sui
livan spoke very seriously on the contro-
versy he had with his hackers through the
newspapers, and the reports that he would
again enter the prize ring to regain his lost
laurels from Champion Corbett.
The conquered champion said, among
other things, that he had not the remotest
idea of fighting Corbett again. He stated
with trembling voice and moistened eyes
that his day had come at last, and that he
is no longer young or energetic enough to
battle against youth and strength. "Cor-
bett," he said, whipped me fairly and
honestly, but when 1 fought him l was al
ready wreck of old age and reckless liv-
ing" Loud cheers and cries, "John, you
could yet whip him with proper training ~
81 am making comfortable living in the
theatrical profession" he continued, ''and
1 am perfectly satisfied without whipping
other people There is one thing, however,
1 wish to say, and that is: If 1 was still
champion, 1 would fight within year.
COrbett refuses to, but, after all, he must
be given credit for the clear brain he pos
sesses."
Sullivan, also, said that the allegations he
made against his hackers were based on
sound facts, but he did not make any per-
sonal attacks on their characters, nor did he

reports were concerned, that he is crazy, he
said they are all bosh, as his personal ap-
pearance and speech could prove. When
the defeated fighter finished, the audience
literally jumped off their seats to cheer his
speech. r

ONLY A WAR OF WORDS.
No Serious Trouble Between Nicaragua and

No Serious Trouble Between Nicaragua and
the United States.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 29-The attention
of the Nicaraguan Minister in Washington,
Senior Don Horatio Guzman, was to-day
called to Panama dispatch stating that the
boundary dispute between Costa Rica and
Nicaragua was assuming threatening dimen-
sions, and that hostilities between the two
republics might begin at any moment.
He said: "That is all wrong,
and 1 wish you would give it the
fullest contradiction. The question of
the validity of the treaty establishing the
boundaries between the two countries was
submitted to the arbitration OF Mr. Cleve-
land, and he decided in favor of the treaty.
That settled the dispute. When the ques-
tion of running the boundary lines came
up later, some little difficulties had arisen
from time to time in details, but nothing of
a character to threaten war or anything like
it.
"Both countries-all Central America, in
fact-are interested in the Nicaragua Canal,
and these reports might do US great injury
if not contradicted. There is no truth in
them. 1 certainly should know if there
was. There has been little wordy discus
sion, that is ali.
