Tragic Suicide of Santa Cruz
Tanner at San Francisco.

WINDOW OF A HOTEL
Southern California's Worlds Fair
Exhibit Wrecked Near Albu-
querque, New Mexico, and Goodly
Portion of 1t Ruined-The Counter
feiters Ackers and Moody Taken to
San Francisco.


SAN Francisco, April 10.-Henry
Stem, tanner, ended his life by jump
ing from the third-story window of the
Valencia Hotel at o'clock this morning
A few days ago Stein came up from Santa
Cruz, his home. He was out yesterday
and came home on late car and went to
his room. Nothing was heard of him
until little after 8 o'clock, when the
people in the Office were startled by a
heavy crash on the sidewalk. They
rushed to the street and there saw Stein
lying in heap with blood flowing from
numerous wounds in the head. He was
still alive, but unconscious. He was
taken to the German Hospital and upon
arrival there was found to be dead.
The body was removed to the Morgue
and an examination showed that the de-
ceased had sustained a fracture of the
skull. His ribs were stove in and the
bones of his arms and thighs dislocated
and fractured.
a search was made of the room, but no
note was found to indicate why Stein had
taken the awful leap. That he commit
ted suicide there is no doubt, for he could
not have fallen from the window acct
dentally.
He was well known in Santa Cruz,
where he had worked tor quite awhile at
his trade. He was German by birth
and about 30 years of age.

ARIZONA LEGISLATURE,
Resolution Asking Readiustment of
the Mexican Boundary.

Resolution Asking Readiustment of
the Mexican Boundary.
PHGNIX "A. IT,, April IO.-The Lepis-
Iature of Arizona to-day passed con-
current resolution requesting the Presi
dent of the United States to open friendly
negotiations with the Republic of Mexico
looking to such readjustment of the in
ternational boundary as will give Arizona
safe and commodious harbor near the
head of the Gulf of California, and secure
TO citizens of the United States particina-
ton in the vast and valuable fishing
privileges of the gulf The subject is one
of profound importance to Arizona as it
is felt here that railroad construction that
would certainly and promptly follow the
establishment of a port of the United
States near the head of the Gulf of Cali
fornia would greatly promote the devel
opment of all the natural resources of
Arizona.
There are great harbor facilities in Pin
cate Bay, the point in view. The
Strengthening of the line from Morales
westward would give Pincate Bay TO Ari-
IONA. The original Gadsden treaty pro-
vided that the line terminate twenty miles
south of the mouth of the Colorado River.
but this was inadvertently changed in
engrossing, the ratified copy to twenty
miles south of the mouth of ella
River. That mistake has robbed Arizona
Of deep water harbor Such a port
would develop the whole west coast of
Mexico and give great value toimmense
resources now neglected and useless.

Territory for sale to the town bidding $50. =
OC0 and ten acres of land came up this
morning after three days of filibusteriup
TO keep it in the committee. Hunt. Chair
man of the Printing Committee, was

with a requisition from the Assembly.
He reported the bill lost, but printed
copy was substituted. The opponents of
the bill succeeded this morning in secur-
ing two more members. This gave them
two majority. and vote was called for.
The measure was tabled, and afterward a
reconsideration was secured. and a mo-
ton was then carried to indefinitely post

nection with the estate of James NJ.
Donahue, deceased, appeared in the court
here this morning before Judge +. An
gellotti to await the result in relation to
the final distribution of the estate in the

J. f. Bergin was placed on the stand

ney c. Hanlon in regard to the finances
and the amount of money at present paid
out to the creditors. The witness stated
that the majority of the creditors were
paid, with the exception of few minor
claims, which have not yet been pre-
sented. In relation to the disallowed
claims he stated the executors and their
attorneys, especially Charles Hanlon,
had, after difficult task, successfully
defended them with but few exceptions
which remained to be compromised.
In reply to the amount of ready cash on
hand, he stated there were upwards of
100000, not including the 500, 600 yet to
be paid by the Smith-Foster syndicate.
In accordance to an order Judge Angel
lotti allowed the following applications TO
be paid off: Six of the Mcguire children,
relatives of the deceased, James NJ. Dona-
hue, 1000 each. and the seventh, god
child, was allowed s25, 200; two of Baron

From New York to Queenstown In
Less Than Four Days.
NEW YORK, April 10.-This morning
the members of the Maritime Exchange
listened to a description of the marine
engine, which, the inventor says, will en-
able vessel to make the trip from New
York to Queenstown in three days and
ten hours. An old man, George Sheffield,
proposed the plan. He said the engine
was not problematical, but an accom-
plished fact. and could propel vessel of
5000 tons at the rate of thirty-five miles
an hour. Sugar and chlorate of potash
furnish the motive power. Sheffield said
small boat was being built in which an
engine would be placed and a trial made
in East River the latter part of May.
Sheffield said no coal is to be used on
this ocean steamer. The screw system
will be used. In brief, the thing will be
a motor power. Enough of this can be
put in a couple of flour barrels to drive a
big ship from Liverpool to New York.
One part of the motive power is sugar,
ordinary sugar. Another barrel will
contain chlorate of potash. Tie machin-
cry rs soHleWA at cou pIIcaleu. Inc steel
chamber into which the piston head
enters has small tube entering at oppos-
ing sides. Through one sugar and
through the other chlorate of potash is
injected by air pressure. They mingle
as rod dipped in sulphuric acid comes
in contact with them and it causes an ex-
plosion which drives the piston. A
series of explosions is kept up by the
feeding of ingredients, and so the piston
is kept working by gases instead OF
steam

WORCESTER (Mass.), April 10.-Last
Sunday week the Catholic Armenians
had an Easter celebration and invited
many Mohammedans and Greek Church
friends. The Mohammedans observed
their spring festival yesterday, and asked
their Catholic friends TO participate.
While the festivities were at their hight
Domltt Jacobs, Catholic Armenian, was
cut across the face with pocket-knife at
a table in the house Of George Dullowe,
where one of the feasts was held. This
precipitated fight, which adjourned to
the street, aud soon a mob of over 100
Asiatics were making things lively with
stones and clubs, while pistols and
knives were also brought into play.
They fought for over an hour, the
neighboring hillside being covered with
spectators of all nationalities, who
watched the fighters cut and pound each
other. Word finally reached the police.
and nine officers were sent to the scene
in a patrol wagon. Their appearance
scattered the fighters, but the police ar
rested sixteen belligerents, including
Jacobs. Warrants are out for nine more.
All persons are more or less bruised and
wounded. To-day in court four were
discharged and the others fined. After
court was over the party went home, and
the fight was renewed, but The people
quelled the row.

Placed Under Arrest on n Charge of
EmbeZZlement.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 10.-J. w. Flood,
for twenty-seven years cashier of the
Donohoe Kelly Bank in this city, was ar
rested tonight on a charge of embezzle-
ment preferred by Vice-President How
ard Ravens. 1t was discovered some
days since that there was serious short
age in Floods accounts, said to be as
much as So, 900, but President Donohoe
intimated that insomuch as Flood had
made restitution, and in consideration of
his long and faithful services, he would
not be prosecuted. Floods resignation
as cashier was accepted a week since by
the directors of the bank.
Flood seems to have considered mat
tors settled, for his arrest was very
great surprise to him. 1t is said the di-
rectors of the bank were not disposed
to be so lenient as President Donohoe,
and demanded Floods arrest. The cashier
was released on $4,000 bonds. The Off
GERS of the bank are very reticent about
the arrest and the circumstances of the
defalcation.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 1O.-A contest to
break the will of the late DR.. Washington
Ryer, who died in June, 1892, leaving an
estate valued at 81 800, 600 was begun to-
day in the interest of Christopher Ryer,
who claims to be natural son. DR.. Ryer
left will bequeathing one-half of the
estate to the widow. $4,000 to a son by
former wife, Fletcher Ryer, and legacies
in various small amounts to other per-
sons and institutions. Christopher Ryer
claims he was the issue of an alliance
formed by DR.. Ryer back in the SOS, at
Stockton, with young Spanish woman.
whom he never married, but young Ryer
claims that everybody in Stockton re-
garded them as man and wife, and he
seems to think he therefore has as strong
a claim to the estate as Florence Blythe to
the millions left by her father. The other
legatees are also said to be dissatisfied
with the terms OF the will, and this con-
test may lead to others.

CoNsTANTINoPLE, April 10.-The con-

Armenians are reported in private letters.
1t is estimated that between 800 and
1000 Christians are now in Turkish dun

WAsHINGToN, April 1O.-The Spiritual
lists are very much excited over an opin-
ion given by Assistant District Attorney
Thomas, placing seances in the category
with ordinary theatrical shows and pro-
posing the imposition of license tax.
The practice of Spiritualists is to charge
admission at the door, as they have no
regular meeting houses of their own, and
this is the only way they can pay for their
halls. They now talk of making coun-
ter attack on the churches, contending
that those which take up collections shall
also be required to take out license.

the first mile at the rate of about nineteen
knots, while the mean speed of this trial

a great excess of speed may be gained
when the vessel is fully opened on her

remarkable, she being quick and sure to
respond to the rudder. While on straight
