FOUL PLAY SUSPECTED.
Old Hugh Mcintyre Thought to HIVE
Been Murdsrod.

Old Hugh Mcintyre Thought to Have
Boen Murdered.
SAN DIEGO, April 17.-There is a
strong belief among residents of julian
that Hugh Mcintyre, the elderly BACH
elor who was found dead on his ranch
three miles south of that town nearly a
week ago, was the victim of an atrocious
murder. Only cursory examination
OF the premises and the dead
mans body was made by the
jurors at the inquest, and their verdict
OF death from unknown causes" was
followed by burial of the body. In
formation comes to Coroner Woodward,
however, from a reputable citizen of
Julian who made minute examination
OF McIntyre's body, as we'll as every OBJ
ject about the old mans house and
premises, that he has almost posi-
tive evidence that a cold -blooded
murder has been committed. This view
of the case has even taken possession of
the minds of some of the jurors since the
inquest was held, upon additional evil
dence being brought to light. McIn-
tyres body, when found by neighb Dor,
was in sitting posture on O stool, one
OF his hands resting on the table, and
tine other hanging by his side. A bar of
soap lay on the etool beside the body,
and a bucket and wash basin was on
the floor on the other side. A
deep round wound was observed on the
dead mans head behind one of the ears
and another deep cut was found on the
thigh. There was no physician avail
able at the time OF the inquest and
therefore no expert testimony could be
obtained as to the real nature OF the
wounds or their probability OF having
been inflicted by accident or by some
person other than the deceased.
He was wellto.do and known to keep
large sum OF money on hand. He
was "a years of age and lived all alone.
1t would have been no great task for an
assassin to have crept upon him and dealt
the fatal blow, afterwards searching the
house at his leisure and leaving the body
in a position which would eug-
gest heart disease or some sim
ilaS ailment as being the cause
of death. Acting upon the above
information Coroner Woodward left to-
night with an undertaken for Julian,
where the case will be thoroughly
looked into.
McIntyre's body will be disinterred
and brought to this city for examina-

WASHINGTON, April 17.-The house
today has by an ovwhelming vote de.
cided to adopt quorum counting rule
which, for all practical purposes, is the
same IS that which Speaker Reed Of
Maine inaugurated during the fifty.Arst
congress. 1t won for him a worldwide
reputation.
Neither undue excitement or tumult.
uous scenes marked the crushing of the
old Legislative barriers. Mr.. Reed and
the Republicans generally were in .
happy humor over the victory they had
achieved. Those who expected Reed
would tackle and jibs his political adj
versaries with their inconsistency were
disappointed. Only 10 minutes ON q
side were allowed for debate and Reed
consumed that with an Arraignment of
the Democrats; good-naturedly distrib.
tied most OF 1t to Democrats who de-
sired to oppose the new rule, and when
his time was exhausted he jocularly
asked for more time to dole ont among
his friends on the other side; MessrH.
Bryan. Cummings, Wheeler, Kilgore
and Russell being the Democrats who
were thus given an opportunity to pro-
test against the adoption of the rule.
When the vote was taken AZ Democrats
voted against it, but 1t secured every
Republican vote and carried by a vote
of 212 to AZ. The Populists did not vote
on the proposition.
The adoption of this rule today. taken
in conjunction with the decision to en-
force the old law of 1846 to dock the sal
aries OF members absent save on account
of sickness, will, it is thought, put an
end forever to parliamentary obstruc-
ton.
After the adoption of the rule it only
required few minutes to strengthen out

house has been for some days, and the

SANTA BARBARA, April 1.-THE body
OF man was washed ashore near Mou-
tecito this morning. II has not yet
been identified, but is thought to have
been some tramp. It is thought to be a
sequel to a story published in local
paper several days ago in which it was
related that a man EN- ployed upon the
wharf heard splash late one night. On
investigation he could find nothing to
support the assertion that someone had
fallen over board. Not much attention
was given to the matter and the circum-
stance was almost forgotten until re-
called by the incident today. An inquest
held tonight brought out nothing to
throw any light on the mystery.
Forty-six members OF the Los Angeles
common council, chamber OF commerce
of that place ana citizens OF Pasadena
visited Oarpinteria today to inspect the
asphalt mines, with view of introduce
ing the material in Southern California
towns for paving purposes.

about $11, 900, but in view Of the fact
that such prominent people are parties

SAN FRANCISCO. April 14.-The 500

The total cost of transportation per
car is about 500. The army is largely
made up OF mechanics, who say they
have no desire to advance on Washing
ton. bat they want to reach their homes
in the east. Great care has been taken
in selecting the quota of 500, the chief
of police overseeing all arrangements
and taking pains that the vicious and
professionally unemployed element is
eliminated as far as possible. The city
consented to defray the expenses Of
these men to the east upon representa-
tions that they were attracted hither by
false hopes OF obtaining work during the
midwinter fair, and they have now no
means OF returning to their homes.
