SAN sALyADOR'S NEW CONSUL.
Latest Move Made in the Ezeta
Complication.

San Francisco, Aug. 1.-THE Ex-
aminer says: San Salvador has a new
consul in this city. Carlos Yrigoyen has
been removed, and the place has been
given to DR.. Eustorjo Calderon, who
has been living in San Francisco during
the past two years. DR.. Calderon is
native of Guatelama. He closely SYM
pathizes with the present government,
and is a bitter enemy of the Ezetas, by
whom he was tortured as punishment
for taking part in revolution against
them.
The appointment of Calderon is the
latest move made by the Salvadorian
government in the Ezeta matter, and,
in fact, one of the most important. 1t
is plain that the government of San
Salvador had good cause to mistrust
Mr.. Yrigoyien. 1t was believed from
the first that Yrigoyen was friendly
with the Ezetas, and it is thought his
hurried trip to the east was partly in
their interests. What has strengthened

MURDERED BY HOLDUPS.
Daring and Dastardly Work in Tex.
as Yesterday.

Lufkin, Tex, Aug. 19.-Yesterday
evening, while an engine on the State
road was running to the coaling station,
about eighteen miles from here, the en-
gineer observed a pile of ties across the
track. He reversed his engine and all
on board jumped. Among the party
was DR.. Drewney, of Rusk. AS he
alighted, a masked man stepped from
the bush and shot him dead. Holding
the others off with a pistol he robbed
the body of the dead doctor, obtaining
$40 in cash, a check on the First Ma
tional bank of Rusk for S25 and a gold
watch and chain.
The robbers evidently thought they
were wrecking the pay car which was
to pay off at the mines. The country
is being secured for the men.

A FIRE IN THE PALACE.

London, Aug. ia dispatch to the
Times from Lisbon says:
The negligence of servants in leaving
a lighted brazier unattended caused a

teen miles from Lisbon. The flames
were only extinguished with great diff
ficulty, and some firemen were serious
ly injured.

by an Adyenturer.
San Francisco, Aug. 19.-The official
board of the Simpson Memorial church,
this afternoon unanimously adopted reso-
lutions, which were subsequently en-
dorsed by a rising vote of the large con-
gregat1on assembled at morning service,
stating the belief that the charges
against the character of Rev A. c. Hirst,
had been brought by an irresponsible
adventurer, evidently for the purpose of
blackmail; that the official board, at the
request of DR.. Hirst, had some months
ago investigated these accusations and
had found them to be entirely without
foundation.
The members of the church and con-
gregation expressed answering conf
dence in DR.. Hirst's Christian character
and purity of life, and their belief in the
innocence of the charges, at the same
time expressing their gratlfic Htion that
Dr. Hirst had declined invitations from
leading eastern churches and had con-
sented to remain pastor of the Simpson
Memorial church for another year.

the tariff bill
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1894-08-20

| Washington, Aug. 19.-The final act
of the president on the tariff bill is
the only thing that stands in the way
of the Senate and the final adjourn
ment.
1t is the general opinion that, with
the bill passed upon by the chief execu-
tive. adjournment could be arranged
within a days time.
The last of the appropriation bills re-
ceived the final consideration of the
Senate during the past week, and even
without the passage of the Murphy
resolution. there would not have been
much probability of any general legisla-
ton, owing to the likelihood of there
| being no quorum.
| The last roll call yesterday dis
covered only forty-fve senators, two
more than a quorum, in the chamber,
and the highest number of the day was
| fifty-four. Several have left since, and
lit is entirely probable that the session
on Monday will open without the num-
| Der requisite to do business in the face
of objection. 1t is probable, therefore,
| that the daily sessions from this time
forward will be brief, and that only
bills to which there is no opposition
from any senator or over which there
| is no contest, will be taken up. The
| Democratic managers hope to have
passed the bill repeating the provision
in the tariff bill exempting alcohol used
in the arts and iIz the manufacture of
medicinal articles.
There appears a likelihood of opposi-
ton on the Republican side, and if
there should be this will necessarily go
over until the next session.
The Democratic members of the
finance committee also hope to report
the supplemental tariff bills during the
week. but do not expect action on them
Probably no considerable time will be
spent in executive session in confirming
nominations to which no one objects.
THE HOUSE is wILLIN'.
| The House of Represen ative:' is
ready to adjourn tomorrow; it's work
has been completed. 1t is only awaiting
| the action of the Senate and president.
1t is probable that it will adjourn from
| day to day until Congress adlourns. 1t
may be that the time will be partially
occupied by giving a few days to the
several committees of the House to
consider such business as they care to
| bring before the House. But this queS-
ton has not been decided.
Speaker Crisp, who is at Old Point
Comfort, will not return until tomor-
row morning, and Mr.. Cultivate, one of
! the other members of the committee on
rules, is out of the city and no pro-
gramme will be arranged until they re-
turn.
Tomorrow, under the rules, is sus-
pension day, as are also the last six
days of the session, but as a resolution
for adjournment will not be passed I'M
til the president acts on the tariff bill,
the rule with reference to suspension
days will not go into effect until the
date of adjournment has been fixed by
| both houses
