they found: Eleven fine meerschaum

and pearls, ruby and pearl rings 6
splendid turquoise rings, 2 emerald and

WASHINGTON, June 22.--There are in
dications that the Ezeta case will cause
our Government to assume definite po-
aition in the matter of the rightof asylum.
Although the Salvadorian refugees with
one exception are safe on the United
States steamship bennington, the Saliva
dorian Provisional Government is deter
mined TO press its demands for the sur
render of General Ezeta, the Nice-Presi-
dent of the late Government. 1t is likely
the other refugees will not be included in
the demand.
So far the negotiations between the two
Governments have been conducted with
much difficulty through our Consul at
La Libertad and Captain Thomas of the
Bennington, but the case has assumed
such importance that. according TO reIia-
BILE advices, the Salvadorian Govern
ment has requested DR.. GuZman to
assume the position of Salvadorian Min
lister at Washington. and to conduct the
negotiations with the State Department
relative to the Ezeta case. DIR. GuZman
is at present Minister resident of Mica
ragua, and the tender from the Saliva
dorian Government is a recognition Of
the high diplomatic ability he has shown
in conducting successfully the delicate
and complicated negotiations which have
characterized the relations between the
United States and Nicaragua in recent
years.
All the diplomatic representatives in
Central and South American countries
are deeply interested in the outcome of the
Ezeta case, as having future application
to their own countries, and, therefore,
they are gratifed at the action of the
Salvadorian Government in taking steps
in having their cases properly presented
to the United States. DR.. Guzman, it is
understood, has replied to the offer that
he would accept the position, provided
his own Government will give its con-
sent.

Assault Upon an y. p. A. Leader at
St. Louis.
ST. LOUIS, June 22.-Alyin Reed. an
American Protective Association leader,
and Financial Secretary of the Compton
Hill Council, No. II, was sandbagged on
Tuesday night while on his way home
from the council and robbed of the
records of his society. On the same night
y. n. Mcbride, Recording Secretary of
the council, was waylaid in lonely spot
by four masked men, but he fought his
way out of the trap with the aid of a loaded
revolver and escaped nnharmed.
Compton Hill Council is one of the
largest branches of the American Pro-
tective Association in ST. Louis. 1t was
organized about three years ago and has
over 800 members. Meetings are held
every Tuesday night.
Saint kevin's branch of the Continental
League meets every Thursday night near
the meeting place of the American Pro-
tective Association Council. It's members
are all anti-American Protective Associa-
ton men, and for some time there has
existed feeling of bitterest enmity be-
tween the members of the two organiza-
tions.
Of late the feeling has grown so strong
that boycotts have been declared by mem
bers of Saint Kevin's against every mer-
chant that is known to belong to the
American Protective Association.
Reed lives IN Rutger street, and while
walking home after the meeting of the
council he felt tugging at the books
under his arm, and instinctively he tight
ened his grasp, but at that instant there
came violent blow on the side of his
head. The blow stunned Reed, and he
fell into the gutter. One of his assailants
then pounced upon him and choked him,
while the others picked up the books and
ran. The man who did the choking did
not release his hold until his companions
were out of sight. Then he sprang to his
feet and disappeared in the darkness.
Reed had considerable sum of money
in his pocket that had been collected at
the lodge, but no attempt was made to
take either that or his gold watch and
chain.
Mcbride says that four men with
masks over their faces sprang at him
out of the darkness. but before they
could reach him he drew revolver, and
threatened to shoot if they came closer.
One of the four said they intended him
no harm, but he kept his revolver leveled
at them and they went away. He reached
home without further incident.
While Reed and Mcbride claim to have
heard of threats being made by members
of st. Kevin's League against American
Protective Association officials, and sus-
pect that mem bers of that organization
are implicated in the assault, neither has
any proof of the fact.

WASHINGTON, June 22-Charles s,

was associated with C. E. Sill in giving
the main information of the irregulari-

dence was much like that recently given
by Sill, and corroborative. He testified
that he made reports of the work on
armor-plates from the workmen's states,
giving the actual work done. The re-
ports We're submitted to Superintendent
Kline, who changed them to bring the
work within the Government contract.
The altered reports were then furnished
to the Government officers. Craig gave
from his note book list of the armor
plates which had been doctored after they
The record-union., 1894-06-23

had been turned over to the Government
treatment of each plate. Many of them
were re-treated after the Government had
rejected them. Craig testified that he
had been instructed by Superintendent
Kline to burn the original records show
ing the real work done. Craig said that
while assistant heater he observed much
surreptitious work on plates. He gave
the technical details of these irregulari-
ties. This was done without the knowl-
edge OF the Government officers, and
was to deceive them. The capacity of the
Carnegie Works was not sufficient to do
the work properly. He had heard Kline
complain TO Assistant Manager Hun
sicker that more furnaces were necessary.

tons in the reports made by Superin-
tendent Kline.
