ASSAULTED A NEGRO COOK.

Murderous Cruelty Practiced by a
ships Mate.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 3.-First Mate
John Mckay of the ship r. f. Cakes,
which arrived from New York to-day, is
under arrest for an assault on the negro
cook. Other charges of murderous
cruelty and brutality practiced on the
voyage are made by the crew. The
entire trip was marked by conflicts be-
tween the mate and crew, in one of
which an apprentice named Charles Cook
met his death, caused Indirectly by Nc
Kay.
Cook, a green hand, was ordered to flrl
the mainsail, the highest on the vessel.
Cook obeyed, but Mckay was dissatis-
fled with the work, and ordered him
back. Cook again climbed the dizzy
hight, performed the task again, and re-
turned to the deck. Mckay was still dis
pleased with the sail, and ordered him
aloft again. Cook again haunted the
rigging, but was terribly exhausted. He
reached the top, only to fall headlong to
the deck, $50 feet below. He was instantly
killed. Cook is said to have belonged to
a wealthy family in New York. After
McKay's assault on the negro he was
placed under arrest by the Captain.

INDIAN J0E'S NECK BROKEN.
FIRST EXECUTION AT SAN OUEN-
TIN UNDER THE NEW LAW.
Jose Gabriel Hanged for the Murder
of Mr.. and Mrs. Geiser, In san
Diego County.
Special to the REcoRp.uNrox.

Special to the RECORD UNION.
SAN QUENTIN PRISON, March 3.-Jose
Gabriel, half-breed Mission Indian.
90 years old, was hanged here this morn
ing for the murder of Mr.. and Mrs. Gel
ser, near Otay, San Diego County.
The execution of Gabriel was of special
interest as it was the first under the new
law which provides that the execution of
criminals shall occur in the States Prison.
Gabriers last night was an exceedingly
uncomfortable one for him. He slept
very little, and complained that the spir-
Its of the old man and woman he muir
dered were in his cell. He arose at day
break this morning, and after eating a
hearty breakfast donned new suit of
clothes, which seemed to please him
greatly. He showed no signs of remorse
about his crime, and did not seem to real
ize that he was to die.
The scatfold on which the execution
took place was erected in one of the rooms
OF the old factory building, on the same
floor as Gabriel's cell.
The execution was to occur at 10 o'clock.
and half an hour before that time Indian
Joe, as he was commonly called, was
ready for it. Nothing about him indi-
Gated that he dreaded the near approach
OF death. In response to question as to
what kind of night he had, he said:
Very bad. The old man and woman
came to see me-"
He would make no response to other
questions save indistinct mumblings.
Colonel Mckenzie, the executioner, is
an experienced hand at the business. Ga
briel making the ninth man he has as
sisted out on the world in that manner.
Shortly before 10 o'clock Father An
drew, Spanish priest, and Father Nc
Quade visited the condemned man and
administered the last rites of the church
to him. At $50 the cell door was closed
and Gabriel was left alone for five min
utes.
Then Warden Hale read the death war
rant to him. The Indian stood up during
the reading and betrayed no emotion.
His hands and feet were then pinioned.
and promptly at 10 O'Clock he was led to
the scaf1old. He walked firmly to the
platform, climbed the stairs, and not a
muscle twitched as the moose was adj
justed and the black cap put over his
head.
Warden Hale gave the signal, the trap
was sprung and Gabriel fell with Jolt.
For few seconds there was no move
ment, then the chest heaved, the legs
were drawn up convulsively and the
body commenced to swing. In four min
utes the pulse ceased beating and in eleven
minutes 1.-The doctors announced that he
was dead.
The body was cut down and turned
over to the Coroner. An examination
showed that the neck was broken. The
body was given to the priests and will be
inferred in the prison graveyard.

Henry street. They both went out this
morning, locking their children in. The
former had four ofsprings, ranging in
age from eleven to six years; the latter
had one daughter, aged 7.
After their departure the kerosene
stove in the apartments of Meyer Mem
bert, on the lower floor, exploded, setting
fire TO Mrs. Membert's clothing. She
managed to eXtinguish the flames, and
with her two children she made her es-
cape. There were twelve families in the
tenement, and all rushed for the fire es-
capes.
The fire swept into the hallway like
flash, and the upper story was soon
mass of flames.
The fire department soon had the
flames under control, however, and were
congratulating themselves on the escape
of all the inmates and the light fire loss,
when the wild Shrek of a woman came
from the throng in the street. 1t was
Mrs. Bernstein, who knew nothing of
her children's peril till turning the cor
ner she saw the crowd and the evidences
of fire. With utmost difficulty she was
restrained from rushing into the build
ing.
AS soon as possible the firemen made
their way to the top story and found the
five little ones suffocated in their beds.
The fire had not reached them, but the
smoke had entered and asphyxiated them
in their sleep.

Successful Outcome of His First Piece

WASHINGTON, March 3.-Representa-
tive Hilborn of California is feeling
happy over the successful outcome of one
OF his first pieces oflegislative diplomacy.
He had been working bard to secure in
the legislative appropriation bill a pro-
vision allowing Judge McKenna to name
clerk for his district to succeed Judge
Sawyer's nephew. Mr.. Hilborn worked
with the members of the Appropriation
Committee, and succeeded in having a
provision inserted in the legislative APP
preparation bill, and it passed the House,
but the Senate struck it out. Senators
Dolph and Mitchell thought Judge Glib
son had as much right to name clerk as
Judge Mckenna, and they opposed this
provision, rather than have Judge Nc
Kenna make the appointment Jesse D..
Carr, who is here, also opposed it. The
bill went to conference, and Mr.. Hilborn
was successful in having the clause in
serted. The conference report has been
adopted by both houses, and the bill is
now ready for the Presidents signature

WASHINGTON, March 3.-The last day
of the outgoing executive is always a
busy and fatiguing one, and President

to emphasize the truth of this statement.
At an earlier hour than usual the Presi-
dent was at his desk going over bills

was subjected, however, to constant in

callers, chiefly Senators and Representa-

number OF half dozen or so, called to
bid the President farewell, and this was
one of the hardest experiences of the day.
After the exchange of calls with CIeve-
