Later Details of the Converse College Fire
at Spartansburg, south Carolina.
SPARTANsBURG, S. g., January A.
Converse College, situated in large
grove few miles from here, and over
half a mile from the nearest houses, was
burned Saturday night. The building
accommodate $50 pupils and was full
at the. opening Of the present term.
Nearly 100 of these had gone home for
the Christmas holidays, leaving so be-
sides the college force in the building.
Saturday night was intensely cold and
the furnaces were tested to their limit.
About half an hour after midnight a
colored man hurrying by noticed flames
shooting from the furnace room. Be-
fore he could give the alarm, the central
wing of the building seemed to be on
fire. The main stairways reaching TO
the dormitories were soon aflame.
Two men who had by this time reach
/, ed the building broke open the doors OF
the west annex and ran from door 10
door awakening the occupants. AS the
girls crowded into the Railways and saw
the main exits closed against them
great confusion reigned. The matrons
found it almost impossible to give d.
rections.
One young woman had her hands and
face terribly burned. At length they
were put on the way to escape through
the annex stairway and began stream
ing out into the open air. The loss is
about 500, 600; insurance $4,000.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 5.-The T..

He stated that his report had been

however, that he could see no reason TO
modify his former telegraphic report
basel on the investigation OF the VAL
paralsO mob by the officers Of the Ba.-
timore.
,sMy men," said he, "thirty-tour IN
number, and entirely unarmed, were
attacked at almost the same moment In
half dozen different parts OF the dis
trict of the city mile and half wide,
by mObS varying from 800 10 1000 men.
Two were killed, five were seriously
wounded, and eighteen more bruised

Every one Of them were stabbed
from behind, not one in front. II my

OF them turned at bay the Chileans fled.

one could have chased dozen Chile

but I cannot permit them to DO inter

The riot lasted about an hour and
half. Capt. Schley's attention was
called 10 the report of the procurator
fiscal Of Valparaiso, which stated that
all but two witnesses declared the police
had done their full duty.

fed" said the Captain, "bUt l am sure
it was nothing like that. Alter much

Lieut.. Henry McCrea to be present al

swore him to secrecy and he cannot

They also made the sailors sign two
papers written in Spanish, Of the con-

How Two Merry Strangers Worked the
Omaha and Other Pool Rooms.

How Two Merry Strangers Worked the
Omaha and Other Pool Rooms.
OMAHA, NEB., January 5.-A clever
scheme to rob the pool rooms here, and
it is alleged in many other places, was
discovered this afternoon before much
money had been lost. Several strangers
at the Diamond pool rooms just before
the Gutenberg races started played
$500 on Congress to l shot.
When the result Of the race came in
Congress was announced as the winner,
AID the strangers cashed their tickets.
On the second race they played their
money on Rosa G. at to 2. When the
message came in saying Rosa G. had
won, the Diamond proprietors became
suspicious and refused to pay until they
had wired New York.
A message was at once sent and re-
ply was received showing the horses
named had not won. In the meantime
the strangers had disappeared, leaving
the money played on Rosa G. in the
booksellers hands. It isestimated that
the bookmakers here lost Sc, 900. Simi-
lar schemes were worked in San Fran
cisco, Kansas City and Denver. As far
as Is known San. Francisco COOKERS
escaped, while at Kansas City and Dem
yer. they were mulcted out Of $1,000
each.

BUIKLEY HOLDS ON


The Supreme Ceurs OF Connecticut De-
cidss that No One is Governor TN It Is
so Declared.
HARTFORD, CT, January 5.-The Su-
preme Court unanimously sustained the
demurrer Of Gov. Buckley, the hold-over
Governor, in the quo warranto suit Of
Norris, the late Democratic candinate.
The court says that the declaration OF
the result Is an Indispensable adjunct
20 the choice Of Governor, as it furnish
eS the authentic evidence Of an election.
Judge Morris has not been declared
elected by the House,
The court says the right 70 choose
any State officer unless the result Of the
choice can be published ia some way so
as TO be obligatory on the whole State
would be no better than mockery; it
would be to give the form OF a choice
without the realty. The declaration is
the only evidence by which the person
elected can know that he is entitled to
the Office or the previous incumbent
know that his term has expired.
The courts can take judicial notice OF
the fact OF an election, but never of the
result Of an election, or OF who is elect
ed until some declaration Is made. 1t
is found that there had been no declara-
ticn by the general assembly that the re-
latOr had been elected Governor, and it
is not claimed that there has been
equivalent act by any other authority.
IL follows that the relator, whatever, in
any future inquiry may show, cannot
now be said to have been elected TO the
Office Of Governor, aud that the respOn-
dent remains the de jtIre as well as the
dc fsctO Governor of the State.
The court proceeds TO consider
whether the present general assembly
has power 20 declare the results of the
election, and recognizes that the two
houses are not in accord. IL says:
"When each house has approved upon
its journal conclusion radically an
tagOnistic TO the conclusions OF the
other upon the same subject, il can
only be regarded as an announcement
that they are unable TO agree"
The lack OF law to determine such
disputes is pointed out and the fact that
the General Assembly is responsible for
sutA lack, since the Constitution directs
it 70 make laws TO that END.

eARzA's REVOLUTION


Has Its Headquarters in New Orleans, and
wants TO Create Another Mexican Re
public.
CHICAGO, January 5.-An Fl PasO
Texas, dispatch reads: IL has been
learned that the leaders in the present
revolution on the lower frontier have
been working in this neighbOrhOod for
recra.ts at least since last June, when
~ was noticed that many laborers work
ing on the small ranches between here
and RincOn, n. NJ, were induced TO
leave and proceed TO the neighbOrhOOd
of Laredo.
These people made a very scanty
living working IN the fields and herding,
and lived in mud houses along the Rio
Grande. There is no doubt that they
could be easily Induced TO enter the
present revolution. 1t has also been
learned that the headquarters Of the
revolutioniStt Is now situated at New
Orleans. but they contemplate trans
ferring them 10 FL Psso, which would
afford a better base Of operations.
The scheme is backed by large
amount OF money, and as soon as a foot
hold has been obtained ia Mexico the
revolution will begin in earnest. The
idea of those backing the movement Is
TO cut off that portion Of Mexico north
OF and extending from the Gulf OF Mex
leo TO Mazatlan on the Pacific Ocean
and declare q republic under the consti-
tution as prom 0lgated in 1857.

THE SALVATION ARMY
Assaulted by a Moo at Eastbourne, Eng
industrious Riots Result

Assaulted by a Moo at Eastbourne, Eng
Iand-Serious Riots Result.
LONDON, January 4.-The trouble be-
tween the Salvation army and the authori-
ties resulted yesterday in a riot OF unusual
violence.
Yesterday the Eastbourne contingent of
the Salvation Army was divided into four
sections, which were stationed in different
parts of the town. Prior to going TO their
posts each soldier signified his or her will
ingness to go TO prison If this was neces-
sary to uphold what they believed to be
their rights.
The police swore the salvaJionists should
not hold their meetings on the streets, and
succeeded in dispensing them. In the after
noon, however sixty Of the army again
sailed from their barracks and proceeded
to the beach, where they were followed by
an immense crowd who menaced them
with all manner of i'll treatment.
Once on the beach the army knelt down
on the sands in prayer. AS the Salvation
. lists prayed the mob hooted and yelled, and
finally made an ugly rush upon the praying
band. This seemed to be the signal for a
preconcerted attack, for the mob immedl-
ately swooped down on the devoted band,
scattering them in wild disorder. Many
ofthem were struck, kicked, and otherwise
III treated
At this point of the disturbance detsch-
ment Of mounted police took hand IN the
proceedings. Under orders from their
commanding officers, they charged upon
the crowd like squadron of cavalry,
They made no distinction between men and
women. They rode down upon the crowd,
trampling the rowdles, male ond female
alike under the feet of their horses. Many
of the crowd were severely hurt by the
iron shoes Of horses.
Despite the protection the police offered
the army was not safe from attack. While
on the way to the way 70 their barracks
the mob several times charged upon them,
and the police were almost powerless to
prevent injuries being inflicted.
