jury.

JUDGE L. N. WALTHAL Is DEAD.
SAN ANTONIO LOSES ONE OF HER
PROMINENT CITIZENS.
He Started to His Office and Was
Taken Suddenly Ill and Expired
Three Minutes Later-His Life a
Most Successful One.

Judge Leonidas N. Walthal, one
Of San Antonio's most prominent

426 Dwyer avenue. about 8 O'clock
this morning, being i'll but few
minutes.
He arose early and after break
fast, read the morning paper and
started to his office, which is in the
Kampmann building. He walked
about 100 yards when he
was suddenly taken with a
severe pain in his chest. Thinking
that it was caused from the severe
cold wind, he returned to the house
and took a small dose Of morphine
| and stimulant. Remaining in a
warm room a few minutes, he felt
improved, and again started out.
He was taken ill the second time,
returned to the house, and was met
at the door by his daughter. He
started to fall, and she grabbed
him and carried him into the room.
He laid down on a sofa, and as one
OF the members of the family was
about to go for physician, the old
gentleman made a few remarks to
his family, and quietly breathed
his last.
The sad news was soon spread
| over the city, and friends soon
filled the house, 20 show their APP

was Judge Bryan Callaghan, with
whom the deceased had at one
time been associated in the prac-
| tice Of law.

burial, but the time for holding
| the funeral services has as yet,

LONDON. Feb. 1.-The big game
hunter. Coryndon, has just returned
from Matabeie, and in an interview
with an Associated Press correspond
emf gave stirring description of Capt
Wilson's fatal pursuit of Lobenguia.
He spoke very highly of the great assist
ance given Capt Wilson by two
Americans of the name of Bir-
nan and Ingram. who accom-
panied Wilson's party. and did daring
scouting during the campaign. He
said: when Capt. Wilson's party was
first attacked by Lobengula's escort he
sent the Americans back to Mai.
Forbes, who was stationed on the
ShaDgani river. to get reinforcements.
After most perilous ride under fire the
Americans reached the ,Shangani, which
they found to be rapidly rising, and
they had great difficulty in swimming
the rushing stream. During their
ride they heard continuous firing
behind them. The arrival of the
Americans with the tidings of
Capt. Wilson's peril created great ex-
element among Maj. Forbes force.
which Immediately started to aid Capt.
Wilson. But they were soon attacked.
and were forced to retreat. On the
following night the position of Mai.
Forbes force was so dangerous that the
two Americans were dispatched, under
cover of a heavy thunder storm, to
Buluwayo for reinforcements. The
Americans, after stealing through the
enemy'S lines, rode almost continually,
at all times in the greatest peril
for three days and nights until they
reached Buluwayo. They were almost
dead from fatigue when they reached
there, but were able to tell their story
after short rest. They were over
whelmed with attentions by the force at
Buiuwayo, and Immediately arrange
ments were made TO send a relief col
unn 10 the assistance of Mai. Forbes.
The Americans accompanied them back,
and when they reached the Forbes party
found them i'll deplorabIe condition
They had lost 120 horses, had run out of
provisions and nad been compelled to
eat horses, and their clothes were in

ENGLISH VIEW OF 1T.
Cleveland's Pledges to the Nation
Fulfilled.

LONDON, Feb. 2.-1he Daily News,
commenting upon the passage of the
Wilson tariff bill in the American house
of representatives. says 1T fuifills
President Cleveland's pledge to the
nation, and comes only just in time
to restore the industrial prosperi-
ty in the United States. 1t is hardly
free trade measure but it removes some
monstrous burdens from the national
industry which the protectionist Clique
imposed upon the country. The bill deals
tenderly with many interests which are
still able to establish claim to be cod
died for the national good. 1t is not
likely that the senate will modify the
bill much. The country wants it. The
widespread misery has pleaded against
the old iniquity more strongly than
words are able to do"
The Chronicle says thai the measure
is so compromising that advanced men
have little enthusiasm over it, but, it
adds. even truncated measure heralds
the breakdown of protection. More
important. it says. is the adoption of an
income tax as a part of the measure.
The senate will reject this feature of
the bill. and will pass the tariff bill in a
modified form,

TWO FATALLY INJURED
In Fire in a Chicago Ware
house.

house.
CHICAGO. Feb. Fire broke out this
morning in the warehouse of Felix &
Marston, the oldest willow and wooden
warehouse I'D the West. The building
is located on Canal street, at the inter
section of Henry street, and is about 100
by l25 feet in area, extending back to
tie Pennsylvania company's track.
From the infiammable nature of the
contents it appeared at an early hour
that the loss would be very heavy, and
the fire department sent in a general
alarm. Within an hour and a half after
the discovery of the blaze the stock was
total loss and the building badly dam
aged. The total loss is $4,000 the
damage to stock being $50. 0oo and to the
building $4,000.
About twenty-five employees were in
the building when the fire started, and
the flames spread so rapidly that eS-
cape by means of the elevators was cut
off and the men were rescued with diff
ficulty. Two of the employees were
badly burned and seriously cut in max
ing their escape through a window.
They are:
William Shocks, burned and injured

Fred Smith. burned. badly cut; will
probably recover.
One of the walls in falling buried two
frame dwellings, crushing them be-
meath the bricks and burning timbers.
The occupants of the cottages narrowly
escaped with their lives, and their
household effects are total loss.

Bcnham Commended for Prompt
Action.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The feeling of
pride and eXultatiOn in navy depart
ment circles over the achievement of
Admiral Benham and Commander
Brownson IL Rio is displayed without
any effort OF concealment. 1t Is pretty
well understood that the admiral has
acted on his own discretion throughout
the affair. After the firing on American
merchantmen on Saturday, the admiral
cabIed the navy department what he
proposed to do in view of certain con-
ditions. Ii any special instructions were
sent him, or any special permission to
pursue the COURSE he hai in
dictated. neither appears i'll the Of
fetal correspondence as given out.
The message sent to him today by Sec
rotary Herbert is all unequivocal COM
mendatfOn OF his course in every Dartic-
ular. The confidence OF the department.
in his capacity is further shown by the
fact that he is left entirely to his own
discretion i'll the further conduct of af-
fans in the delicate task he has en-
parked upon. The correspondence
made public today was given out after
conference between Secretary Herbert
and the president.
Minister Thompson's dispatch indi-
Gates that Admiral Benham does not i'll
tend to Interfere with actual hoStilities
directed against Rio by the Insurgents
The minister says: american vessels
must take the consequences when get
ting in the line of fire where lie itlmate
hoSulities are actually in progress"
There is some doubt expressed as to
this statement being reconciled with
that of the admiral himself, Ito give
American merchant vessels full pro-
lection to the wharf if they desire to
GO"
1t Is considered that Admiral Ben
hams position pTeeludes the right of
insurgents to interfere with American
merchant vessels, or to prevent them
landing their can goes unless the insur-
gents shall be accorded belIigerent
rights, that is TO say ANY hostiIities con-
Quoted by the insurgents that interfere
with the rights OF American merchant
men will be liable 10 be stopped by the

For Allotment, But Will Be in a
Few DAYS.

Few Days.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 1. - Secretary
Carlisle made no attempt to allot the
new bonds this afternoon, being other
wise engaged, but he expects to get at
the work tomorrow. at which time all
the delayed offers will have been re-
ceived and tabulated. 1t was said at
the department this afternoon that it
will probably be the 18th of February
before an actual exchange OF the bonds
between the government aud the pur-
chasers is contaminated. 1t will be
several days before the bonds are fin
ished by the bureau of engraving and
printing. When they are received from
the bureau they will have to be proper
ly executed, signed and countersigned
and then sent to the various SubtreaS-
uries at which the subscriptions are to
be paid. When the money is actually
paid for the bonds, then then the gold
reserve of the treasury will be increased
by the amount which will be received.
At the lowest figures. viz: the secre-
tary'S upset price of 117.223. the gold
received will amount to more than
SIS, O00. 900. This is ON the presumption
that gold will be used entirely in paying
fol- the bonds. 1t may be, however, as
has heretofore been pointed out in these
dispatches, that legal tender and treas
ury notes will be used indirectly to some
extent in the payments for the bonds,
i'll which case the currency balance
would be increased in proportion. The
gold reserve is today in round numbers
s65, 600, 600. aud if the bonds were paid
for today in gold at S5S, 000OOO the total
reserve would be sl23, Coo 900, DE- S25. 0O0,-
900 more than is regarded as the custom
AIRY limit.
CAT late hour this afternoon Secre-
tary Carlisle received Geographic offer
to take $1,000, 900 in bonds 1t came too
late, however, to be considered.

MANKATo, MIMI, Feb. 1.-The Free
Press says: Miss Zula NJ. Cram teaches
district So school, in Belgrade. with six
teen scholars. Friday she undertook to
discipline twelve-year-old Bismarck
ronner. The latter's seat mate threw
piece of meat, and the teacher accused
Bismark of doing it, and wanted him to
pick it up. BE refused, and she cuffed
him, but as he chung to his seat she
tried to pull him out by the ears. He
pushed her away. aud put her into a
corner. The teacher caught him around
the neck and bit his forehead, and in
the scuff1e they fell down, the teacher
under the pupil. This Is the story of
the pupil. supported by one or two wit
nesses. The teachers story is some
what different. She claims that the boy
struck her upon the forehead and chin,
and that she was knocked down sense
less. She had the pupil arrested, and
the case was tried before Justice Kol-
bert in North Mankato. The justice
concluded to adopt the explanation of
the boy, and discharged him.
