Three Hundred People Watch Grey
hounds Chase Hares.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 3O.-The incle-
ment weather to-day had no effect on
those who find sport in watching grey
hounds chase hares. Over 300 people were
at Ocean View Park to witness the second
course of the Pacific Coursing Clubs
sixty-four dog stake. A light rain fell at
times, and rain clouds spread over the
field aud obscured the view of some of
the races. In most of the races the favor
ties won; in the first race, however. the
talent met with a Waterloo. Sir John, a
strong favorite, was defeated by Lyons
Monday. The defeat of Glen tarron by
Dashaway was also a surprise. Sky
rocket had an easy course with MollIe,
and is strongly backed to win the first
prize of the big stake. The San Jose dogs
showed up well, but were beaten, though
only after very close races. The appear
ances are that if the interior dogs have
more experience on the grounds they
may win several prizes.
Next Sunday, rain or shine, the big
stake will be given to ill up the days
sport. The drawing of the consolation
stake will take place on Friday evening.
The official announcement of the result
Of the sixty-four-dog stake as run off to-
day is as follows: Monday beat Sir John,
Whip beat Dexter, Dan q. beat Laurel

SERIOUS FAILURE.
A Large Raisin-Grower and shipper
Forced to the Wall.

FRESNO, Oct. 30.-A. d. Barling, a
raisin-grower and shipper, has filed pc
lition in the Superior Court. asking to be
declared an insolvent debtor. The fail
nre is very serious one, and one of the
largest that ever took place here. Bar
ling's liabilities are SIl2,95l. His heaviest
creditors are W. L. Beck & Co. of San
Francisco, to whom he is indebted in the
sum $4,000. They are secured by mort
cages on liarllng's vineyard. The assets
consist of petitioners vineyard, valued
at 5G0,OOO, and personal property valued
at 5000, all incumbered. At the COM
mencement of the fruit season Barling
bought heavily. He made big shipments
last, but Just then the cholera scare
came on, and the bottom dropped out of
the fruit market, seriously embarrassing
him. a number Of fruit and raisin-
growers will lose considerable sums by
the failure. y large number of mer-
chants are also among Rarling' creditors.

DOUBLE TRAGEDY,
Which Serves as a Climax to a Most
remarkable Story.


Remarkable story.
KANSAS CITY Kas.), Oct. 30.-Tn Com
merclal alley yesterday afternoon there
occurred double tragedy, which serves
as climax Of a most remarkable story.
Some time near o'clock Mrs. Clara Sic
ger, aged 65 years, put a pistol ball
through the head of her four-year-old
grandson, Frank Volcl1ers, and then
fired shot into her own brain. Both
died almost instantly.
Mrs. Seiger's first husband was man
named Panckner. By him she had two
children, boy and girl. The latter
married Charles Volckers. The former.
Frank Panckner, married a girl in Brook
lyn, n. y. one day Frank Panckner, in
q fit Of jealousy shot his wife three times,
one ball going through her Jaw. He
thought he had killed her, so he turned
the weapon Ean himself and ended his
own life. But the young wife was not
dead. In two or three months she gave
birth to boy baby. That baby was the
victim of to-day's tragedy.
When he was four months old his
mother brought him to Kansas CITY to
visit his uncle and aunt, Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles NolcKers. Mrs. Panckner re-
manned about one year in Kansas CITY
and then returned to Brooklyn. Charles
Noickers had taken a fancy to the little
boy while here and he decided to adopt
him.
Tie mother by letter announced her
willingness. Accordingly Volckers Jour
neyed to Brooklyn, secured the child and
started on the return to Kansas Citv.
When near here he jumped from the
train while it was running at good speed.
He made some silly excuse, but after
ward said that some people were follow
ing him who wanted to take the child
from him. Finally they arrived in
safety.
From the first the grandmother-now
Mrs. Sieger-seemed to take dislike to
the little boy, who was known here as
Frank Nolc1ers. She often declared that
she would kill him. To-day the little
fellow went to play with some neighbors'
children. The old woman saw him and
took him into her house. Neither was
seen again alive.
At $3.50 o'clock the foster father became
alarmed and began a search. He went to
Mrs. Sieger's home, and, finding the
doors locked, he called up policeman
and forced an entrance. Up stairs his
mother-in-law and adopted child Law on
bed, both dead. A pistol clinched in
the old woman's hand told the story.

Tho snanish Girls NIanra.

Though the manta is exceedingly be-
coming to everybody, it suits the big.
black eyes of these south hern sisters tar
better than the Saxon blue or gray. 1t
not only enhances grace and beauty, but
hides slovenly dressing and all defects OF
figure. When properly draped it makes
an old woman look younger, a skole-
ton form appear reasonably plump, a

most slender, and renders a really
handsome face perfectly irresistible.
Some of the mantas-of rich silk, COW

broidery and edged with real Spanish
lace-cost from $500 to $1,000. There are
cheaper varieties, all the way down to

TWO SERIOUS FIRES.

st. Johnsbury, VT.


st. Johnsbury, VT.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 30.-There was a
serious fire on the river this morning in
the vicinity of Point Breeze. 1t was
caused by the explosion of oil which
leaked from large pipes connecting the
oil rehneries on each side of Point Breeze
with the gas works. The escaped oil
worked down through the soil and col
lected beneath the furnaces at the pu 1lp-
ing station in large quantities. When
ignited it exploded with sufficient force
to break down the retaining wall and tive
whole volume of oil spread in a burning
mass over the surface of the river. Ii
was ebb tide, and a stiff breeze carried
the blazing mass down the river. Great
excitement followed among the shipping
men. Tugs were hastily summoned 10
tow away the steamers and sailing YES

Alter hard work the largest vessels
were gotten to places of safety. The
bark Felix and several lighters were
burned. The bark Elena and one of two
other vessels lost their rigging Several
small houses on the bank and five hun
dred feet of wharting were destroyed.
The loss Will aggregate Sl35, 600.
LIVES RELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN LOST.
ST. JoHNsBURY (Vt.), Oct. 3O.-A fire
started tonight in Lougee Brothers d
Smiths large drygoods store, on the east
side of Railroad street. The flames
spread rapidly, swept on by a northeast
gale, and destroyed the Merchants Ma
tional Bank, Spencer's jewelry store.
Bagley's drug store and sveraI smaller
establishments. Two tenement houses
were also burned out, and fifteen fami-
lies rendered homeless. 1t is thought that
the men and women occupying rooms in
the building where the fire started were
burned to death. The losses aggregate

Special to the REcoRD-UNIoS.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-E. c. O'Brien,
Commissioner of Navigation, in his an
nual report expresses the opinion that
the exclusion of foreign vessels from par
ticipation in our domestic and coastwise
commerce, provided by the Act of 1873,
has alone saved our shipbuilding ana
shipping interests from ruin, and that IN
this absolutely protected branch of our
merchant marine we have attained sue
cess in nautical affairs far SURPRISING
those of any other nat. n on the globe.
Referring to shippin, on the great lakes,
the Commissioner no rs an increase in
tonnage from I'll ,269 tons in 1882 to ,lS3,-
$50 tons in 1892, and say it now embraces
a fleet of large steam vessels, models OF
beauty and efficiency. He says while
American navigation is absolutely driven
from the transatlantic trade, it survives
on the Pacific Ocean, first. for the reason
that the American transpaciflc lines are
liable to sustain themselves through as
sociation with the absolutely protected
steamer line between New \ ork and San
Francisco. and the benefit OF protection
which arises from their association with
the transcontinental railway line.
The Commissioner, however, calls at
tention to what he regards threaten
ing danger on the Pacific, and says
that the Dominion Government has en-
abied The Canadian Pacific Railway to
construct its lines across the continent
and place on the Pacific Ocean a line Of
steamers which receives from the British
and Canadian Governments an annual
subsidy OF 100000 per year, which is five
times the amount paid annually to Ameri-
can steamers carrying to and from Asia,
which several times exceed in magnitude
the mails carried by the Canadian lines.
The total annual subvention to this COM
bined Canadian and British Government
line of railroad and steam navigation
amounts to about Sl0,000,00O year. Be-
side. the Dominion Government has
passed a statute i'll terms allowing the
Canadian Pacific to discriminate nuStly
against the American trans portation
lines, and in order to make sure of secur-
ing the Asiatic trade that Government
has imposed a duty on tea and coffee
when imported into Canada from the
Unitsj states.
Commissioner O'Brien regards all this
as an assault upon the dignity as well as
the commercial and shipping interests OF
the United States, and as protective
measure recommends the imposition OF
discriminating duty on Asiatic goods
when imported into the United States
from Canada. While the tonnage of
American built vessels employed in the
protected domestic trade OF the country
has advanced, the unprotected foreign
commerce branch of our merchant ma
rine has declined.
He does not regard the measures of re-
lief already adopted as adequate to the
restoration of American shipping en-
gagged in foreign commerce. The Com
missioner says the adoption of the policy
proposed by the House Committee on
Merchant Marine and Fisheries for ad-
mitting foreign built vessels to both our
foreign and domestic trade would inflict
upon shipbuilding and shipOwning in
terests a more severe blow than they re-
the war.

MILWAUKEE (Wis.), Oct. so. = The
scene of the great fire was visited to-day

dent the insurance will reach S3,000,0 600
