MAILS LATE TODAY.
But 1t Was Fire, Not a Strike, That
Made Them So.

When the business men and such other
citizens as were expecting mail from the
metropolis opened their boxes in the
Postofiice this morning they were unable
to find any correspondence bearing that
postmark. They proceeded to make
some inquiry and learned that
the old abandoned depot at
New Haven had been destroyed by fire
and had blocked the tracks. The first
mail is due in this city at 5:45 a. M, and
II failed to materialize until shortly after
II o'clock, when train made up
OF two baggage cars and a mail
car rolled into the depot.
The 1920 p. m. mail had not arrived at
last accounts. The Consolidated officials
state that the work of removing the block
ade IL proceeding expeditiously and that
the trains are feeling their way along so

HUNTERS QUAY, July 5.-The following
was the time Of the two yachts at the first
round:
Vigilant hour, 20 minutes, 2 seconds !;
Britannia l hour, "a minutes, 81 seconds.
The Vigilant continued to draw ahead
of the Britannia, and turning the
Ascog mark boat, the yachts came
on the run with their booms over TO
port, the Vigilant carrying grcatIballoon,
or spinnaker jibs, as they are termed
here, which were drawing splendidly.
OF Toward Point, after rounding the
Ascog mark, both yachts set their spin
makers to starboard and their club top
sails were replaced by iib headers. At
the weather mark, Jack-yarders were
got up, and, working along the Cloch
shore, spinnakers wero run out to port
and iib-topsails were set.
Under this sail both yachts ran toward
Kilcreggan, and from here IL appeared as
II the Britannia was closing up little.
Approaching the Cloch lighthouse on
the run home to the finish the Vigil
liant was still leading. and IL was esti-
mated that she was about seven minutes
ahead. The wind was softening, but
the Britannia with her spinnaker down
began to haul In and passed her near
GourOck.
Later-The Britannia increased her lead
and won easily.

regiments OF state militia from San Fran.
cisco and two companies from Stockton
marched into this city. They had sban-
doned their train two miles out OF the city.
The troops marched direct to the armory,
around which the local militia com pan les
had established n strong guard.
Soon after the troops had breakfasted,
the city became wildly excited over "a re-
port that several men had been shot. A
bungling pilitiaman from San Fran cisco
dropped his rife. which was disch arged.
The bullet passed through the leg of one
OF the miiitiaman's comrades, and struck
city fireman named Wing in the abdo-
men, fatally wounding him.
Only few minutes afterwards, when
all the troops had been drawn up and
were executing an order to "load, +"
another youth accidentally discharged
his musket and tore a sleeve from the
uniform Of comrade.
When IL became known that General
Superintendent Fillmore had announ ced
his intention TO start trains under mill
tary protection, the strikers at once be-
came demonstrative. Chairman Knox
the leader, saw the gravity Of the situa-
tion and urged them not to molest the
militia.
Notwithstanding his conciliatory talk.
the strikers loudly declared no Pullman
car shonld be moved Finally three COM
panies of militia were ordered To driye
the strikers from the depot The scene
was tumultuous and threatening. For a
few moments the soldiers hesitAted. then
they wavered and then came a blunt re-
fusal to move against the excited strikers.
A few minutes later all the troops
turned their backs upon the turbulent
mob at the depot and quietly withdrew
to the armory. A desfening shout an
nounced the second victory of the strikers
over the railroad company, and their first
victory over the state militia.
Soon after this 1t became known why
the militia had retreated. United States
Marshal Baldwin and the railroad off,
cials had insisted thai the troops refrain
from shooting, and that they remove the
strikers by physical strength. This plan
the officers Of the militia absolutely re-
fused TO sanction.
When the troops had withdrawn to
their armory, and the jubilant strikers
End their sympathizers were loudly cele-
brating their victory, a new source Of dan
ger became apparant. A body of 80
strikers appeared on the scene, armed
with rif1es and ammunition. 1t was
learned that the Garibaldi Guards had
turned the contents of its arsenal over to
the strikers
The authorities and railroad people be-
came still further alarmed when advised
of like preparations Of the strikers at
various points north of here on the Ore
gon branch.
At Dunsmuir, shortly after noon, q
body Of IS strikers, fully armed and
equipped for battle. marched to the South
ern Pacific depot. where other American
Railway union men and a locomotive
were In waiting, and soon the armed body
OF excited men were speeding toward
Sacramento. A United States msrshal's
car was coupled behind the coach in
which the strikers were riding. At Red
Bluff . riocous demonstration. which
also portsnds trouble, was made by the
strikers.

Several prominent men made speeches
denouncing the Wilson bill, in so far
as it affects the wool business. A
protest was prepared and adopted
with instructions that copies be sent
to President Cleveland and members
of Congress. The protest declares the
meeting represented the allied wool
Industries of the country with an in
vested capital exceeding1 $500, 000, 900,
and it had assembled to protest
against a measure which threatens
to destroy large part of this capital
and leave the protection of the re-
mainder uncertain; that the woods and
wooden schedule Of the Wilson bill
were so drawn as to entail upon Ameri-
can manufacturers maximum loss
and embarrassment and an offer to

sion of the American market at a min
imum risk and efforts. They protest

dressed the Senate on the Frey resolu-
ton against the use of the naval forces
i'm Hawaii. The political history for
some detail by Senator Davis. He in
sisted that the evidence contained in
the Blount report instead of sustain
ing the conclusions of the commits
sioner, as a matter Of fact, sustained
the position of ex-MiniSter Stevens.
In the revolution of 1885, the woman,
afterwards the queen and now the
pretended queen of Hawaii was the
prime mover This revolution was to
overthrow her own brother. Her re-
cord shows she violated her pledges
and oaths, and no reliance can be
placed in her or any assurance felt
that her conduct in the future would
be otherwise than it had been in the
past. THE testimony is concurrent,
said Davis, that the revolutionists
expected to have trouble; that they
did not rely on the United States
troops or marines for the success of
take care Of themselves. This revolu-
ton would have gone on if not a
marine had set foot on the island of
Hawaii. All this talk of implied
duress by the United States troops
by reason of their position is the
merest fallacy. The success of the
revolution was already assured and
complete. 1t was a condition and not
a theory"
Senator Davis announced he would
conclude tomorrow.
The Senate then went into executive
session and soon afterwards adjourned.

Trenton, N. J., Jan. 10.-The Republi-
cans secured possession of the Senate
chamber this afternoon. They are still
in possession tonight, and say they will
retain the advantage gained. The Re

governor refused to have anything to
do with the matter.
The committee visited Superintendent
Ford, who referred them to Micheal
Nathan, Democratic sergeant-at-arms.
Nathan could not be, found and the Re
publicans sent for a. Iocksmith- The
locksmith was unable, to effect an en-
trance and Captain Jack Graham
smashed in a window leading to the
ladies' gallery, threw back the bolt of

THE GOVERNOR IS SILENT.
This is Said to Augur Well for the
Fight.

Jacksonville Jan. 1O.-Nothing has
been heard from Governor Mitchell in
regard to the statement sent by the
DuvaI Athletic club last night, con-
|sequently the feeling is general the
battle will not be interfered with.
Bowden tonight offered to bet $1,000
the governor would, within a week,
throw down his hand and declare he
would have, nothing more to do with
the affair The wager was not ac-
cepted. A number of boxes were dis
posed of today, the purchasers being
mostly town people. Tomorrow the
Duval club will apply for a license
under the new city ordinance, per-
hitting boxing contests, and there is
no doubt of it being granted. Word
will tomorrow be sent to both Corbett
and Mitchell that the club is ready to
deposit the $4,000 purse with the ref
cree, as agreed upon in the articles.
The champion considers the proclama-
ton of the club the best move that
could have been made. Mitchell
thinks it rather strong, and says he
fears for the consequences. The DuvaI
club has issued another statement as
surfing the ticket buyers that unless
the the contest was brought off every
cent received will be returned
