Cause of the Victoria Disaster
Shot Down Like Dogs.

Folsom prison has furnished an
other dreadful tragedy which is q dis
grace to the state, and should result
in Warden Aull serving a long term
for his part in it. On June 9th

in the quarry, headed by George Son.
tag one of the famous bandit gang.
They captured the foreman of the
gang and used him as shield against
the shots OF the guards and having
several guns and revolvers made
fight. The guards opened fire on
them from all directions and lastly,
after the foreman had escaped from
his captors, the gattling gun was
turned loose on the poor wretches
with the result that three were killed
and four wounded. Sontag being
among the latter and suffering
severely. After the three men were
killed and the gattling gun began
operations the desperate convictS
used the bodies of the dead as barri-
cades to protect themselves. a sub
sequent examination showed that one
of the victims had been pierced by
twenty-four bullets. Warden Aull
says he knew an outbreak was in
tended and he imported a lot of sharp
shooters from the mountains, making
them temporary guards and ordered
them to kill at once any one who at
tempted to escape. The butchered
men were A. Dalton of San francisco,
Henry Wilson, Solano county, and
Frank Williams Il life timer. Two
young convicts who were merely
spectators were shot, one, Thomas

In the fight before the Columbian
athletic club, between Peter Maher
the Irish champion, and Val. Flood, of
Australia, the latter was whipped
easily in four rounds.
The great American Derby, at Chi
chago, was the most successful meet
ever held there, with fifteen starters.
Don Alonzo, the favorite, was beaten
badly, and Boundless, of Kentucky, a
thirty-to-one shot, regarded as rank
outsider, captured the fat purse, break
ing the record and bringing it down
to 2:36. Forty thousand people were
present and went wild over the event.
Jake Gaudaur, the champion oars
man of Canada, has been challenged

The Cholera in Europe.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-The reap
pearance of cholera in Europe does
not cause any alarm among the treas
ury officials. Reports are daily re-
ceived from United States cOnsuls and
other agents abroad, and they concur
that the climatic conditions so far in
Europe are not conductive to the
spread of cholera there. Precautions,
however, will not be relaxed.
Cause of the Victoria Disaster.
An investigation in the loss of the
warship Victoria has led to the con-
clusion that the dreadful catastrophe
was due to an ineXcusable blunder of
the vice admiral, in giving such an
order and to the fact that Admiral
Markham obeyed it and rammed the
Victoria. The latter will be tried by
court martial. The loss will reach
fully 400 men.

Foreign News.

a dispatch from Burmah of June
24, says: For several days Moslems
have been preparing TO celebrate a re-
Iigious festival today. This morning
they were forbidden by Mr.. Fleming,
British magistrate, to sacrifice COW
near the HindoO temple. When the
police appeared near the temple with
the announcement the Mohamm edans
began stoning them. The police
charged without firing, but the Mo-
hammedans held their ground stub
bornly and fought back with sticks
and stones.
At last Flemming ordered them to
fire and twenty Mohammedans fell
dead and many more were severely
wounded. Four companies of military
then charged on the double-quick with
fixed bayonets. The Mohammedans
dispersed slowly and still fighting.
The military is occupied in clearing
the streets. Many Mohammedans and
Hindoos have been killed and scores
wounded. The regulars are regarded
as unequal to the work of subduing
them, and the volunteers have been
called upon to do duty in the streets.
Latest returns from the German
elections indicate that the Emperor
will have q slight majority in the
Reichstag.
Cornelius Herr, who fled from France
to escape arrest in connection with the
Panama canal scandals, is dying in
London. He has not yet told his story
and probably will not.
A dispatch to the London Times
from Bangkok, the capital of Siam,
says the French gunboat LutIn is an
chOred in the river opposite the center
of Bangkok and has made prepare
lions to fire upon the city. The dis
patch adds, though most anxious to
maintain friendship with the French,
Siam is quietly determined to resist
aggression and is preparing for any
contingency. The defenses of the
country prove stronger than expected.
Three ships have been sunk at the en-
trance of the Menam, river on which
Bangkok is situated, about twenty
miles from its mouth. This reduces
the channel to the narrowest limit it is
possible for use and the government
is ready at moments notice TO COM
plete the block to prevent the ingfess
and egress of vessels.
The election in Northeast Cork to

was elected without opposion.
Chile is threatened with another

a report from Panama says that
General Ferdico Gutierrez, the Costa
