NOT A MURDER.
Identification of Body Found in San
Bernardino County.

Identification of a Body Found in San
Bernardino County.
SAN BERNARDINo, Sept. 29.-The body
of man supposed to have been mur-
dered, which was found in Lytle Creek
Canyon a few days ago, proves to have
been that of Geary Of Grapeland. A key
found on the body of deceased fits his
door, and his shotgun was found IN the
bushes near by. Every indication points
to the fact that Geary was hunting on
horseback in the woods. His horse be-
coming unmanageable, started to run.
Geary's gun then caught in some bushes,
became discharged and the charge pene
trated his head. His horse then dashed
to the precipice, and, stopping suddenly,
threw the body into the gulch, where it
was found in a decomposed condition.
His horse made it's way home, and was
taken care of by neighbors.

S. Diehl as Assistant General Manager,
with full powers attached to suit the DO
sition.
Colonel Diehl is well and favorably
known in newspaper circles. He first
engaged in active newspaper work in
1873 on the Chicago Times, with which
paper he remained ten years as reporter,
CORRESPONDENT and assistant city editor.

GUILTY OF MURDER.
John Hansen Convicted of Killing Hi.
Wife.


Wife.
ASTORIA, Sept. 29.-John Hansen was
found guilty at midnight last night of the
murder of his wife, Caroline Hansen
The Jury were out for an hour. The de-
fense set up was ''chronic alcoholism"
and good deal of medical testimony was
introduced to prove that Hansen COM
mitted the crime while suffering from
that disease.
The tragedy, which has just resulted in
Hansen's sentence, was one of the most
revolving and cold-blooded acts that has
ever disgraced this country. On the Both
of last July Caroline Hansen, an old and
well-to-do resident of Knapp, was in her
garden picking raspberries for dinner.
Hansen quarreled with her over some
trivial matter, and, while she was stoop-
ing down in the raspberry canes, rained
a series of terrible blows on her head
with heavy billet OF wood, killing her
instantly. He then gave the alarm to the
neighbors, and exhibiting his wife's bat
tered body to them said he believed she
had been killed by men who wanted to
get her money. They had lived together
for thirty years.

THE vALKYRIE VERY FAST.
Likely to be a Very Close Race for the
American Cup.


American Cup.
NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-The EUening
Telegram says: Lord Dunraven is said to
be curious to know all about the Ameri-
can cup defender, and l am informed on
the authority of a well-known yacht
owner that his Lordship went aboard the
Vigilant at New Rochelle last Sunday,
and that he was much impressed with the
appearance of the vessel, and commented
on her very favorably.
Commodore Sutton thinks the Yalkyrie
may Guttoot the VigilanI before the wind,
but does not believe she can point or
reach as well. ''In any event." said
Commodore Sutton, ''the Valkyrie is an
American model, and should she win,
the victory will not be discreditable to
American yachting skill"
Colonel King of Triton has a high
opinion of the Valkyrie's ability. MAKE
no mistake" said the Colonel, the Eng
lish yacht is a very fast boat. L do not
say she can beat the Vigilant, but mark
my words, it will be a very close race"
The impression made by the Nalkyrie's
trial spins is on the whole favorable, but
experts of the New York and Atlantic
Yacht Clubs express the opinion that the
English boat is not as ''lively'' as the
Nigilant.

The Island of Santa Catharina Sur
rendered to the Rebels.
LONDON, Sept. 29.-It is announced the
fortified island of Santa Catharina, Brazil,
has surrendered to the rebels. The sur
render is looked upon as an important
victory for the rebels, as it is contiguous
to Rio Grande do Sui, which is not seri-
ously disaffected.
The rebel squadron which went south
from Santos, after failing to effect land
ing there leaving war vessels to blockade
that port, have been off the island Of
Santa Catharina for some time, and the
surrender Of Desterio, on its west coast,
was announced, but not believed, some
days ago.
The rebels are now said to be in full
possession of the island, which is well
watered and capable of being made a
most important harbor. 1t has superb
bay, where the rebel ships can provision
and refit. 1t will serve as base from
which the rebel ships will direct inland
operations, as the rebel commander In
tends to carry on the war on land, and
gradually, if possible, gather together an
army strong enough TO meet President
Peixoto's forces in pitched battle. Pelxoto
is said TO be greatly annoyed and alarmed
at this fresh success upon the part OF the
rebels.

He is Going Back to the Land of the

Charles M. Lester, the smooth swindler
who worked off bogus check on De-
tective True on the 11th of August, and
afterward swindled several farmers out
near the Costumes, for which he was ar
rested and held to answer, was discharged
yesterday in the Superior Court.
This was not done because there was
any lack of evidence to convict him, but
because he is wanted in Tennessee for a
crime of greater magnitude, to which
State he will be 'deported" for trial
1t seems that Lester was at one time q
solicitor and collector for the Chattanooga
Brewing Company, and that while en-
ployed in that capacity he did up his en-
ployers for some $1,000. A reward of
several hundred dollars was offered for
his arrest and conviction. and as the
financial stringency is still on, True
thinks it will pay him to take the fellow
back there. and will leave with his pris-
oner tonight.
