WORK OF GHOULS.
Startling Discovery in a
Cemetery.
THE DOINGS OF SAVAGES,
Vaults Broken Open by Tramps, Cof-
fins Smashed and the Dead
DeSeCrated.

VALLEJO, Oct. Friday evening John
Mcguire, wealthy citizen OF this place,
received notice that his vault In Carqulnez
Cemetery had been desecrated. Some per-
sous who had gone out to accompany the
remains Of the late w. S. Brooks to their
last resting place observed that the lock
on Maguire's vault door was broken. This
led to closer inspection which revealed
piece of dastardly work which can only be
attributed as the act of ghoulish person.
They brought the information to Mr..
Mcguire, who could hardly believe what
was told, ard late in the evening he went
to the cemetery to verify the truth OF the
story. 1t being dark when he reached
there he did nothing more than to examine
the paddock that held the heavy iron door.
This was found broken and useless and
the inspection convinced him that the cof-
fms had been outraged. He made no fur
ther investigation at that time and re-
turned home horrifed at what he saw, and
hardly able to believe his own eyes.
This morning he made another visit to
the cemetery and ascertained the true state
of affairs. The vault was opened and in
side was confusion. On the steps leading
into the vault and on the floor lay coffin
screws and ornaments and broken glass
all around. On the right Of the entrance
was the casket containing the remains of
Mrs. Eliza Mcguire. Evidences of desc
Grafton of this casket were plain, and the
screws which the fieuds had taken out had
not been reset.
On the left was the casket containing the
remains of the late Ellen M. Gregson. 1t
was badly broken. The lid On the foot of
the coffin had been taken off and laid to one
side, the screws that held it being thrown
on the floor. The engraved plate had been
pred from its fastening and the heavy
plate glass at the foot was smashed in, as
if it had been struck with heavy ham
mer. The screws that held the cover on
had been started on one side and were
loose in their places.
At first it was thought that the body of
Mrs. Gregson had been removed. and that
the vandalism was the work of body
snatchers. but closer examination revealed
the fact that the body was still in the
casket and had not been touched. Mr..
Mcguire was much relieved when he
found this to be the case, as sensational
story that the body had been stolen had
been started. and such thing was too
horrible to believe.
When the fact that the body had not
been taken became known Mr.. Mcguire
made up his mind that the vandalism was
the work of tramps. who had hoped to
find valuables on the dead. The desecra-
ton was committed within the last three
days, as on the first OF the week Mr..
Mcguire was at the cemetery and the lock
on the vault was then all right. 1t is not
at all likely that Mr.. Mcguire will ever
find the perpetrators of these ghoulish
acts. He has offered reward of 500 for
information that will lead to the arrest and
conviction of the ghoulS

MUCH GRAIN INJURED.
Great Loss to Washington Farmers
by Wet Weather.

SPOKANE, Oct. 7.-Review specials from
all parts of the Palouse and Big Bend
grain sections uniformly report serious
damage to crops by continual heavy rains.
Harvest this year Is fully one month later
than usual, and much grain is still stand
ing. AS rule standing grain is in better
condition than grain in the swath and
stack. Some of the latter is sprouting and
much of it is damaged. The danger is in
tensiied by shortage of SACKS. Some
sections report loss OF from % to 30 per
cent. If fair weather could come at once
the loss IN the whole country would prob
ably not exceed Is or 20 per cent, but If
rain continues another week the damage
will be incalculable.

DISrlOUNTING THE GUNS.
A novement for Saving Rio From
BOmbardment.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-President Peixoto
of Brazil has consented to dismount the
guns in Rio de Janeiro, and Admiral de
Melio, leader of the insurgents, has
agreed not to fire on the city as long as
ths guns remain dismounted. This is the
word received from Commander Picking
Of the cruiser Charleston, now in the Rio
harbor, last night. This arrangement is
believed to have been brought about
through the efforts Of the foreign repre-
sentatives at Rio in order to save the de-
struction of the city.
The report that the diplomatic corps
had informed President Peixoto if he did
not withdraw by Sunday that they would
recognize the insurgents as belrigerenis Is
entirely without foundation. The state
ment that Peixoto had been called to come
to terms with the rebels by Monday is also
contradicted absolutely.
