fore o'clock tonight. His family are
unable to ascribe any motive for the
deed. The detective had been quieter
than usual at the dinner table, and had
gone upstairs afterward to his room.
He had undressed, but had not gone to
bed. Instead, clad only in his under
clothing, he had gone to the bathroom
and lighted the gas. Apparently he
had sat on the floor and shot himself.
His head had fallen back and death
was instantaneous at the second shot,
The first shot had missed.
Detective Coffee was one of the
ablest members of the San Frncisco po-
lice force, and many of the most des-
perate criminals who are now serving
sentences in the state prison owe their
captivity to his untiring efforts to put
an end to their wrong doing. He was
born in Limmerick, Ireland, January

They Cause Little War at Tumwater
Opposite Cello.
Goldendale, Wash, Sept. 16.-At
Tumwater, opposite Cello, on the Co.
lumbia river, in Klickitat,. there has
been during the last few days turmoil
among the fishermen. 1t seems the
right to fish for salmon at that point is
in dispute between Bunnell Bros. and
Seufert Bros. The former reside in
Klickitat and the latter on the Oregon
side. It seems the Seuferts have fished
and realized great profits hitherto from
this point, and it is with great re-
luctance that they gave way to the
Bunnells, who are said to have acquir-
ed rights from the state that they are
now exercising. From the catch the
Bunnells made SEPTEMBER 10 they real
lied 81, 900. Seufert Bros. sent their
guard yesterday to prevent John Bun
nell by physical force from going to his
nets; but John .Bunnell was equal to
the occasion and succeeded in pummel-
ing the guard and giving F. A. Seufert
a Columbia river bath. It seems about
this time a boatload of twenty-five
fishermen came over from Seufert's and
later guns were drawn and the combat
was said to have been draw for the
time being. 1t is feared by friends of
both parties that blood will be shed be-
fore the disputed rights are settled.
Some friends of both parties are trying
to have the difference left to an arbi-
tration committee.

THE ATLANTA EXPOSITION.

A Protest From Washington in Behalf
of the Negroes.
Washington, Sept. III. E. john
son, secretary of the Atlanta exposition
commission, for the colored people of
the District of Columbia, has written
an open letter to the exposition author
tiles in Atlanta, protesting against the
granting of concession for the sale of
cheap whisky in the negro building at
the exposition. Mr.. johnson says, in
part:
t'The entire commission having in
charge the exhibit of the colored people
from the city of Washington are sur
of its work to procure for your exposi-
tion good display of the articles collect
ed must be placed in an exposition
groggery. You should have advised us
long ago if such were the aims and OBJ
jects of your commission. Why did
you not have this whisky -guzzling an
mex placed in some of the other build
ings? The whole management must
have known, where you crowd to-
gether, as it is hoped to do at Atlanta,
thousands of colored people of all
classes in cheap barroom, trouble is
bound to ensue, perhaps in the shape
of murder or lynching. If this conces-
sion must stand, then you ought not to
expect the white and colored press of
the country to induce our people to go
to the exposition. On the contrary,
every respectable and influential news
paper will vigorously advise all color
ed people to remain away

SUMMERS NEGLIGENCE
Will Be Suspended From Duty
for Six Months.
THREE CHARGES ARE PROVED
The Columbia's Injuries Due to the
Captains Carelessness in Docking
Her at Southampton.


Her at Southampton.
Washington, Sept. 17.-The navy
department. today made public its ac-
tion in the case of Captain George w.
Sumner, late commander of the United
States cruiser Columbia, who was tried
by court-martial at the Brooklyn navy
yard on charges growing out of the in
jury sustained by his vessel in docking
at Southampton in July.
The first charge was culpable inef6-
cheney in the performance of duty. The
court found him guilty in less degree
than that charged, in that he did not
have proper preparations made for
docking. The court ignored that por-
tion of the charge alleging that as a
consequence of that failure the boat
was subjected to severe strains, causing
damage to her hull and necessitating
repairs costing about 81, 900.
The captain was found guilty on the
second charge of suffering the vessel to
be hazarded in violation of naval regu-
lations. He was found guilty of the
third charge of neglect of duty, and
the specification that he paid the charges
of docking without protest was proved.
The sentence of the court is as fol-
lows: ''To be suspended from duty
only for a period of six months on
waiting orders at half pay, and to be
reprimanded by the honorable secre-
tary of the navy

May Leave the Reservation.

Washington, Sept. 14.-The Indian
bureau has granted permission to Agent
Teter, at the Fort Hall reservation, in
Idaho. to allow certain Bannock Indians
to go into the Jackson's Hole settle
ment, under military escort, in search
of property abandoned there by them
on the occasion of the attack made by
settlers upon them. Agent Teter re-
guessed permission to grant passes to
these Indians for the purpose indicated,
and his request was referred to General
Coppinger, who approved it. The In
dians probably will be allowed to go
soon, and will be accompanied by
troop of cavalry. The question of
hunting game is not involved.

CLAIMS AGAINST CHILL.
Those of McKinstry and Shields gaiI
Attracting Attention.


Attracting Attention.
San Francisco, Sept. 17.-The claims
of Andrew McKinstry, and the heirs
of Patrick Shields against the Chiliar
government are once more arttactine
attention here.
McKinstry and Shields were sailors
on the American ship Keeneewa and in
1891, while in Valparaiso. they were
brutally beaten by Chilian police.
Shields afterward died from his injur.
les. A claim for damages against
Chill was instituted by the United
States in behalf of the injured sailors,
and President Harrison, in his annual
message, made special reference to the
cases. The cases were considered by
tribunal in connection with the
United States steamer Baltimore sail
ors, but it was found that McKinstry
and Shields were British subjects,
though serving on an American ship.
Consequently their claims were thrown
out. Lord Rosebery, the late premier
of England, championed their cause,
however, and another tribunal, COM
posed of Germans, British and Chilli
ans, is now considering the claims in
Valparaiso.
A copy of the demurrer of the Chill
ian government has been received here,
and the endeavors Of Chill to avoid re-
sponsibility are considered remarkable.
In the demurrer, the attorney for the
government states that the police rec
ords of Valparaiso contain no mention
of the beating of the sailors, or of the
reasons for such treatment, if they
were injured. Chill also objects to a
foreign tribunal to try the cases, as it
is considered humiliating to Chilli.
The allegation is also made that the
sailors, the day they were arrested,
drank bottle of pale beer in a saloon,
and that possibly their minds became
clouded SO that they imagined that
they had received injuries when in re-
ality they had not been hurt at all.
This statement is made in spite of the
fact that the men were covered with
wounds and bruises from which they
never recovered.

thirty-two days, and could have made

uing his journey through the Red Sea,
but had decided to change his course
on account of his fear Of thieves after
passing the Suez canal, and to go via

The Expectation Of Meats.

San Francisco, Sept. 14.-Collector
Wise has received important instruc-
tions from the secretary of the treas
ury as to the expectation of meats
from this port. The circular provides
that on and after next Monday the col
lector must withhold clearances for all
vessels of every character which have
on board any meats not accompanied
by an elaborate certificate by the meat
inspectors Of the agricultural depart
ment. In the absence Of certificate
the packages must be SO marked as to
show that the goods are not within the
laws of provisions. The meat inspec-
tors rag must show that animals from
which the export meat was obtained,
were free from disease and that meats
ON board are wholesome.

THE STATE OF TRADE.
Little Confidence In the Government
Crop Reports.

Little Confidence in the Government
Crop Reports.
New York, Sept. 16.-R. g. Dun &
Co., in their Weekly Review of Trade,
say:
A slight setback, which may mean
much or nothing, according to the final
outcome OF the crops, is not unexpected
at this season. If the government crop
reports were correct, the situation
would not be encouraging, but not
much confidence is placed in the re-
duced estimate of corn, none at all in
the estimate of wheat, and even the
most enthusiastic bulls do not think it
worth while to quote the government
as to cotton. The fact is that we are
beginning to market not far from
1900, 900, 900 bushels of corn, though
about 500, 900, 600 bushels will not be
moved from the counties where it is
grown; about 450, 900, 900 Of wheat, of
which the farmers are unwisely hold
ing back large proportion, and about
100000 bales of cotton, if the cotton
estimates are not erroneous, as they
may be, to add to the stock carried
over. The commercial stocks of cot
ton September l., here and abroad,
amounted to 2,100, ,538 bales, and do
mestic mill stocks were 36O,618 bales,
allowing not single bale of increase
of stocks at Southern mills. Prices
have settled back little during the
week, Notwithstanding the gloomy de-
partment reports.
The wheat crop is evidently larger
than the department has estimated,
though nobody knows how much
larger, and is coming forward with
more encouraging rapidity. The price
declined sharply about &c per bushel,
with little indication of recovery. The
price of corn has also yielded, with a
prospect for the largest crop ever
grown, and at $50 at New York, a
large proportion of the crop will be of
little profit to farmers. If we are to
have large crop of grain and small
crop of cotton, it is natural to infer
that manufacturers may find large
transactions at the West and South.
There is in fact a very large demand
for goods at the South, and west
bound shipments are unusually large.
The market for finished products is a
little weaker, with indications of hes
itation on the part of buyers at Phila-
delphia and Pittsburg, although prices
are on the whole fairly maintained.
There is weakening in the prices Of
structural products and plates, but bar
iron is still quoted at Pittsburg at Las
cents. and tank steel at 1.19. The
rapid shipments of Marquette ore dur
ing the past week have some influence
on prices of Bessemer products.
Nothing of Importance has occurred in
the minor metals, although tin has
been stronger at times, with London
buying, and copper has been helped by
the report Of bigger sale of lake at
10 Ia cents.
Sales of wool have been 6,147, 800
pounds for the week, against 11,311,-
200 pounds for the same week in 1892,
and there are indications that the do
nestle market is quite overloaded by
the speculative purchases made some
time ago.
Failures for this week were 1877 in
the United States, against 219 last
year, and "a in Canada, against A last
year,

Military Training in Public Schools.
Chicago, Sept. 14.-Patriotic train
ing in a most acceptable form was
added to the curriculum of the Chicago
public schools last night when the
board of education decided that an op-
portunity be given to the male pupils
of the high and preparatory schools
who may desire to obtain instruction
in military drill.
In taking this step forward the board
has only placed Chicago in line with
New York, Boston and other Eastern
cities where instruction in military
tactics has been found to be valuable
adjunct to the ordinary educational
course.
In the West, too, the new movement
is proving popular. Denver has had
her high school pupils organized into
cadet companies and battalions for
about six years, and no big parade in
that city is complete without having
these cadets in line.

A RESPITE FOR KRUGG
His Case Will Go to the United
States Supreme Court.
wAsHINGToN's Ex-TREAsURER
Derive Power From the Enabling.
Act or State Constitution?

Olympia, Wash, Sept. 14.-James
Hamilton Lewis was in the city today,
and has succeeded in securing an appeal
States of the case of Adolph Krugg,
the defaalting treasurer of Seattle.
Pending appeal, Krugg will be allowed
to go on $4,000 bail. The case was
first argued here on the ground of the
unconsitutionality of the laws under
which Krugg was indicted.
Three members of the court decided
that the prosecution was legal and the
laws valid. Judges Anders and Cor
don held that the Indictment was in
valid. Judge Hoyt concurred with the
three judges, except that he was of the
opinion that cities of the frst-class de-
rive their powers from the constitution,
and not from the legislature. Lewis
contended for an appeal on the ground
that laws concerning the government
of the city of Seattle were derived from
the act of congress admitting the state
into the Union, and not from the state
constitution; that. such being the case,
the test of the sufdciency of the laws
under which Krugg was indicted was
whether or not they complied with the
federal constitution, and that the laws
were in violation of articles vi and xiv
of the United States constitution; also,
that as the decision by this court was
based on a construction of the federal
constitution by a divided court, this
raised doubt as to its correctness in SO
far as the federal question was con-
cerned, and the whole case, under such
a state of affairs, must be sent to the
supreme court of the United States.
One judge said today that ordinarily
he would not grant writ of error, but
in this case he was satisfied of the exis-
tence of doubt as to the validity Of
the laws under which the prosecution
was conducted, and, also, as to whether
or not they were sufficient under the
federal constitution. This is the first
appeal of this nature from this court
on the grounds urged, and will prove
an embarrassing precedent if sustained.
