CASE DROPPED.
The Spreckels Family Row
Adjusted.
A Stipulation Agreeing to Dismiss
the Suit Filed With Judge
Slack Yesterday.

Some degree Of surprise was occasioned In
Judge Slack's court yesterday when The sensa-
tiOnal suit OF II. NJ. Wooey and C. A
SIreckels against Claus Spreckels, John D.
and AdOlph Spreckels and the Hawaiian Com
mercial Company was ordered to be stricken
from the calendar.
Last November young Gus Spreckels FLED
the above mentioned suit, in which be charged
his relatives with fraudulent conspiracy. He
complained hat he bad been defrauded out of
bis interest in the Hawaiian Commercial Com.
Uany by them and had been denied paTIicipa-
ton In The management. He declared that a
large amount of money was due to him and be
demanded an accounting, under threats of eX-
pOsures To follow.
The Spr ckes family was evidently very
much perturbed at this action taken by their
young kinsman, and although TumoTs as TO the
tue origin OF The suit were rife 20 one seems
yet to know exactly what lies at the bottom of
IT, 1t was known only that young Spreckels
claimed $50 shares of stock ID The company
which were held in the names OF Claus Spreckels
and Henry L. Dodge, and which be could not
get put in his name. He charged that the
Stock of the company had been Onscrupul0usly
managed for the benefit of his father Claus
Spreckels. All the stockholders of the COM
pany were made parties 10 the suit as de-
fendanis.
1t was anticipated that when the proceedIn rs
came into court some sensational DEVELOPMENTS
would enSue. but TO the surprise of all stipu-
lalion was filed IN Judge Slack's court yester-
day, signed by all parties TO the suit and agree
Ing TO a dismissal. Each side agreed 10 pay its
own costs.
None of the parties interested and none of
the attorneys engaged in the case were willing
TO give any details of the supposed compro-
mise. All that is at present known is that
Augustus SpreckelS Will assume control of the
affairs OF The Hawaiian Commercial Company,

STANFORD'S HORSE DEAL.
Loose Says the Former Did Not Own
the FiIIv Kinda Rose.

Judge Seawell heard testimony yesterday 10
suit brought by w. A. r. Loose against the
estate OF the late Leland Stanford for the pos
session OF FLY known as linda Rose.
The circumstances of the Csc are somewhat
peculiar, ana involved some of the TECHNICAL
ties peculiar to hOrSe-deaing. Loose was the
proprietor Of mare called Beautiful Bells,
which he kept at grass in the paddocks at Palo
Alto belonging 10 Stanford. The millionaire
took fancy to tn mare and negotiated for her
purchase after she mad been mated with his
celebrated stallion ElectiOneer. The TWO par
ties, were busy haggling over the price of The
mare when she gave birth to a foal. That foal
was christened Hiuda Rose.
Shortly after that Stanford purchased Beau
thu Bells, the price being $1,000 and On is un.
Ierstood) tn caBceling of a note for S24OO
lie also took the FLY, and raced her, winning
lot OF money with her at various TRACES. Mean
while Loose Is said TO have put in no claim till
1892 when he filed suit against Stanford to re-
cover The FLY or her equivalent $50, 900, as
well as $50, 900 damages for StanfOrd's unlaw-
full possession thereof STAFFORD died before
The suit was heard. and Mrs. Stanford the ad.
minlstralriX, was substituted as defendant in
the action.
The testimony introduced yesterday tended
10 show that both parties we're equally sincere
In their beliefs; Loose hat he had sold the
mare alone, and Stanford that he thought, ac-
cording TO The recognized custom In horse
dea ling, be had purchased mare and foal TO-
gether. The case will be submitted to-day.

THE WRONG VICTIM
Miss Vaughn's Sister Was
Also Burned.
In Her Excitement Mrs. Shipman
Threw the VitrioI at Mrs.
Tway-A Burned Wrist.

Miss Ida Vaughn. the young woman who so
narrowly escaped being dsigured with vitriol
on Thursday evening at her home on Sanche z
street. was too much overcome by the shock TO
care 10 be interviewed yesterday. Her sister.
Mrs. Tway. however, related to CALL re-
porter how the event happened.
81 had known Mrs. Jessie Shipman FIVE
years ago." she stated, "but when a heavily
yelled woman came to the door on Thursday
evening and ed for Miss Vaughn l did not
recognize her as Mrs. Shipman. My sister
came into the hall, and knew Immediately who
it was, however. You see, the woman had
been threatening her life for some weeks on
account of an absurd jealousy. and Ida lived in
fear Of her.
"As soon as Mrs. Shipman saw my sister in
the hall she raised her hand and threw the
vitrol. The gesture made me think immed-
ately that 1t was a pistol or some weapon that
the yelled woman was about 10 use, and Ia.
stinctively slammed the door,"
The circumstantldl evidence confirmed Mrs.
Tway's statement completely. The door of her
residence on Sanchez street is splashed and
burned with the corrosive fluid in a position
which shows the vitriol WIS thrown from the
doorstep. Mrs. Tway's left hand, the one which
from the construction of her hallway would be
nearest a person standing at the door. is
wounded and burned by the vitriol that
splashed over it and over her wrist while she
attempting TO close the door. The dress
and prom she wore are also burned.
lyon see Mrs. Shipman was In too great a
hurry" continued Mrs. Tway. "She did not
wait for my sister to approach near enough to
be within reach. She simply flung the viIriol
forward soon as Ida appeared. When she
saw she had failed she turned and ran away.
She appears TO have hoped not to be recOg-
niZed and TO escape as soon a s she had COM
mItfed the dastardly act.
"Luch lily. however, my husband had just drlv
en- up in buggy In time 10 see the vtrlOl thrown.
AS Mrs. Shipman rushed down the steps and
acrOs the road he gave chase. She attempted
TO crawl under bat bed-wire fence and in so
doing tore her wells, of which she wore several.
Mr.. TWav caught her. however, and compelled
her 10 get into the buggy, though she begged
and prayed to be allowed 10 CO."
Miss Ida Vaughn indignantly denies any
knowledge of the letters which Mrs. Shipman
declares she bad lately been receiving from an
unknown source, indeed the young lady. who
Is much respected, il declared by all her friends
TO be an entirely innocent vicIim whom Mrs.
Shipman hoped to sacrifice merely bee use she
was going 10 marry man for whom Mrs. Ship

affection.

The billy section of the country
Immediately to the north and
northwest of San Antonio has OF
late become quite noted for its
numerous caverns, and cave eXplor-
ing has fast become one of the fads
with the more venturesome citi-
zens of this city and vicinity.
OF the dozen or more caves situat-
ed within a radius of thirty miles
from this city, there is perhaps
none more interesting than that at
Van Raub station, % miles north
west Of San Antonio on the line OF
the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass
railway.
DISCOVERY OF THE CAVERN.
This cave, which from its curious
shape and remarkable wind ings.
has been appropriately christened
'"The Great Python" was discover
ed by Sylvester Simon, an
old resident in that neigh
bOrhOOd, in 1873. Mr.. Simon
was out in quest of water or
suitable place for digging a we'll
that he might water his stock dur.
ing the drouth that held forth in
that year, when he discovered two
queer openings in the soil leading
into subterranean chamber filled
to depth of fifteen feet with pure,
cold drinking water. He imme-
diately blasted out the small open
ing directly over the pool OF water
until a hole four feet in diameter
was obtained. A pump was erected
over the pool, but after the drouth
was broken and plenty OF surface
water was again obtained the
pump fixtures were removed. In
1878 Mr.. Simon's curiosity as to
the extent of the cavern was
aroused and he followed it to it's
probable termination.
VISIT TO THE GREAT PYTHON CAVE.
Since 1873 the cave was left I'M
explored until several days ago
when several young men living in
the vicinity of Van Raub made a
trip into the opening. Their stories
of the dazzling splendor, the mons
ter cat fish ard generally lurid ac-
counts of their trip wrought Van
Raub settlement up to high pitch
of excitement and enthusiasm.
