Superintendent. Directors III. D. Tor
rance of this city and Archibald Melon
aid of San Jose voted to re-elect DR..

cans, and DR. Clark is Republican. The
retiring Superintendent is a Democrat,
but he never introduced politics into the
asylum.
Director Harvey. who nominated his

find with DR.. Rucker, who had discharged
his duties honorably and faithfully. No
fault was found with his administration
by the other directors.

LIZZIE BORDEN CASE.
Sensational story Published by Bos-

Sensational story Published by Bos-
ton journal.
BosToN, Oct 10.-The Globe this morn
ing published thirteen-column story to
the effect that several witnesses at the
coming trial OF Lizzie Borden for the
murder of her father and stepmother will
swear they saw Lizzie at the window of
her house on the day of the murder at
time which makes il certain she was at
that moment standing over the body OF
her mother. Others, it is stated, Will
swear they overheard a quarrel between
Lizzie and her father the night before the
murder, in which the latter told her that
unless she gave the name ofthe man who
got her into trouble he would turn her
out of the house.
g. Romano Pittson, a wealthy New
Yorker, made affidavit few days prior
to the murder that Borden con-
suited him as friend about Lizzie, whose
trouble he related.
George Sisson, it is said, will swear
that less than a month before the murder
Borden told him he had made will Civ
ing Emma and Lizzie $25, 600 cash, which
was more than he would have allowed
them but for his wifes intercession.
Bridget Sullivan, it is claimed, corrob-
crates the story of quarrel between Mr..
Borden and Lizzie, also that on the after
noon of the day of the murder Lizzie
whispered to her: keep your tongue
still, and don't talk to these officers, and
you can have all the money you want"

REDoNDo, Oct. 10. = The cruisers
Charleston and Baltimore, which have
been lying in the harbor since Friday,
were joined by the San Francisco this
morning, and at noon the three vessels
sailed for Mazatlan, Mexico, bound for
their Atlantic stations.
Over 1000 persons visited the cruisers
yesterday. The crowd was so great that
the tugs and fishing craft were unequal
to the task of conveying all, and many
had TO satisfy themselves with a view
from the shore. Special trains were run
over the SAINT Fe and Redondo Railways
from San Be1s ardino, Riverside, Orange,
Los Angeles and intermediate points,
and fully 10000 persons availed them
selves of the opportunity to visit Redondo
Beach.
Admiral Gherardi and aids paid their
respects TO General McCook, command
ing the Department of Arizona, at the
Hotel Redondo this morning and were
handsomely entertained.
The reception and ball given at the
Hotel Redondo Saturday evening, COM
plimentary to the officers of the cruisers,
was most brilliant and successful affair.

INCENsED FRENCHMEN

Make an Attack on the American
Consu1's Residence.
MONTREAL, Oct. 10.-A report comes
from Three Rivers that the French pop
ulation is greatly incensed over a state
ment alleged to have been sent to Wash
ington by the American Consul, and
published in official sanitary reports,
containing offensive reflections concern
ing the habits of the people of Three
Rivers. The people were so indignant
that the windows in the American Con-
surs office were smashed. The United
States Consul at Montreal has or
dered an investigation.
The row broke out late Saturday night
while the Consul was in bed. The mob
numbered 1000. AS soon as the first at
tack was made Colonel Smith strongly
barricaded every entrance, and sue
ceeded in keeping the mob out, but
shower of stones smashed every window
in his residence. The entire police force
was sent to his rescue and dispersed the
mob, which gathered again on the public
square and burned Colonel Smith in
etfigy. In the early morning again an
other attack was made on the house, but
a strong Gordon of police surrounded it
and the intended victim escaped.
The French Canadian press all over
the province have taken the matter up,
and Consul Smiths recall is perempto-
rily demanded. Consul Nicholas Smith
is married to a daughter of the late Hor-
ace Greeley. He was appointed to the
Consulate at Three Rivers in 1889.

sion.

CADIZ, Oct. 10. = Enormous crowds
watched the departure of the gunboat
Conde Valderno, conveying the Queen
Regent Christiana and the royal party
for Huelva, where they will take part in
the Columbus celebration. The gunboat
was escorted by feet of foreign war
ships.
When the warsbip arrived off Huelva
she was met by Senor Canovas Delcastilo,
the municipal authorities, diplomats
who are visiting Huelva and number
of other dignitaries. Twenty-three Span
ish and foreign men-of-war were ranged
in line, and as the gunboat with the royal
party on board entered the bay the
nearest warshlp fired royal salute. This
was repeated by the next ship in line,
and so on until every one of the twenty
three vessels saluted little King Alfonso,
who was with his mother on the Conde
| Valderno.
The Conde Valderno came to anchor

SAN Francisco, Oct. 10.-The brig J.
d. Spreckels arrived this morning from
kahului, Hawaiian Islands, and reports
that the ship William a. Campbell, Cap
tain Havener, from Port Townsend for
Queenstown, was abandoned in gale on
August 2Sth in latitude rs north, longi
tude 1902 west. The mate, ten men and
boy arrived in boat at kahului Septem-
ber 2Sth, but Captain Havener, wife and
child and the remainder of the crew, who
embarked in another boat, had not ar
rived when the Spreckels left, and it is
feared they have been lost. Both boats
were bound for Hilo. The mates boat
was without water eight days. The men
arrived safely, but the boys condition
was critical.
A storm broke upon the ill-fated ship
on the night of August 9th and ragged all
that night and the next day. 1t was the
tail end of the storm that caught the other
two vessels and it spent its fury on the
Campbell. The ship groaned and creaked
and the timbers seemed ready to part
every moment The wild waters dashed
over the bow and over the sides, COM
pletely burying the vessel beneath the
waves. Everything on deck was awash.
The combers swept through the galley
and smashed the dishes, scattering the
| broken crockery about the deck. Into
| the forecaStle and cabin the water rushed
and everything was set atloat. Railings
We're smashed like tinder wood, and sails
were torn from the gaskets into shreds.
| The bulwarks were stove in and the ports
were smashed to bits. The waves rose
| high into the rigging and came down on
/ the deck with deafening roar. Yards
were carried away and the ships top
hamper went by the board.
1t was with the greatest difficulty that
any one could remain on deck. Men
were lashed to the rigging, and the Cap
tain himself was lashed on the bridge.
Still the vessel rolled and her timbers
groaned and cracked ominously. A
leak was discovered, and men that could
reach the pumps lent a hand, but the
water gained rapidly. Suddenly above
| the din of the storm an awful crash shook
the gallant vessel from stem TO stern
The water in the hold had saturated the
wheat, which had swollen and burst the
sides of the vessel. There was not q
moment to lose. Care had been taken
to have provisions ready, and now these
were put into the boats. When too late il
was found that the water could not be
reached, the deck being flooded. The
| only water to be had was out of the
boiler Of the donkey engine. There was
no time left for choice, SO the stuff had tc
be taken.
Captain Havener, his wife and child
and eight of the crew were put in one
boat, and the first mate, nine men anC
the cabin boy in the other. Captain
Havener gave orders for both boats tC
proceed to Hilo, and then the men silently
rowed away from the sinking ship
When they got off some distance tht
men rested on their oars and watched tht
good old ship settling in the water. The
vessel filed rapidly, and very shor
while after the crew left she plunged for
ward and in another moment the wave!
closed over her, leaving only wreckag,

LONDON, Oct. 10.-Saturday last Hal
lam Tennyson sent the following dis
patch to Hon. Robert L. Lincoln, United
States Minister to Great Britain, which
reached him at Liverpool: "Will you be
pall-bearer Wednesday at 1890 at West
minister Abbey?"
Minister Lincoln replied: Your tele-
gram reached me just as I am sailing for
America. regret most deeply that my
departure prevents me from accepting
your invitation and having the honor of
representing my cOuntrymen on this oc-
casion, so af1licting to all the world, and
not less mournful to America than to
England"
Lord Tennyson's family are anxious to
have America represented among the
pall-bearers, and to-day asked Henry
White, Secretary of the American Lega-
ton, to act in place of Lincoln. White
signitied his acceptance of the invitation.
All members of the Tennyson family
assembled at Aldworth to-day, and took
last look at the dead before the coffin lid
was closed and screwed down. Lady
Tennyson was the last to leave the room,
and alone in the sacredness of her sor-
row she bade final adieu.
