THE GOVERNMENTS CASE.
Briefs in the Stanford Suit Are
Filed

Briefs in the Stanford Suit Are
Filed.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. S.-Judge
J. D. McKissick, special counsel for
the United States in it's SIS, 900, 900
suit against Mrs. Jane L. STAN
ford, has completed his argument
and brief for the United States cir
cult court of appeals. If the govern
ment wins the suit it will then I'M no
manner interfere with the bequest Of
Gov. Stanford to the university,
for Mrs. Stanford will still have an
estate from $5,000,00O to $4,000, 600.
The government suit was originally
filed on March Is, and after an ar
gument, United States Circuit Judge
Ross sustained the defense's de-
murrer to the complaint, and there
is now an appeal from Judge Ross
decision.
Judge McKissick's argument and
! brief controvert every proposition
enunciated by Judge Ross, and cites
opinions in the supreme court of the
United States in support Of every
position assumed by the government.
| 1t is particularly set forth that
Judge Ross erred in his interpreta-
ton of the contract between COM
plainants and the railroad corpora
ton, and in following the loose die
tum of the supreme court Of Califor-
mia.
The theory held by Judge Ross
was that there was no provision of
law under which the plaintiff could
recover.

Of more than 1000 members AS the
entire number of postoffice clerks in
the United States is only Il, GOO, it is
clear that the national association
is in truth representative organiza-
ton. Up to last night the arrivals
at the Ryan numbered over seventy.
One delegate, however, had not yet
come-a delegate whose advent is
awaited with beating hearts and eX-
pectant eyes, and whose personal
characteristics, tenderness of heart
and relative fondness for ice cream
as against soda water, were yester-
day discussed with anxious delibera-
ton. This most important delegate
is Miss Eva BEEN, of Hutchinson,
Kan, the only one of her sex duly
accredited to the convention. Par
lor 4 at the Ryan will be the official
headquarters, where the local recep-
tion committee will be constantly in
attendance.
The most important work before tbs
delegates will be the adoption of a bill
to be presented to the next congress.
This bill is expected to better the con-
dition of the postoffice clerk in many
directions. For several sessions a sim
liar measure has been brought up at
Washington. Last year it received the
special recommendation of a dozen Of
the leading postmasters of the country,
who assem- bled at Washington with
that special purpose. For various rea-
sons, however, the bill, although gen.
orally approved, failed to become a
law. Since then the committee on leg
islation of the national association has
received from the poStoffioe depart
ment, by way of friendly 6 digestion,
the outline of the bill, the provisions
of which include all that is desired by
the association and avoid several prac-
teal difficulties presented in previous
bills. The department is in entire ac-
cord with the clerks in their ambition
to free themselves from. the inequali-
ties under which they now labor.
No class of government employees, it is
claimed, have so many just reasons for
complaint. Moreover the two remain
ing classes of postal department en-
ployes, the letter carriers and the
clerks of the railway service, have al
ready secured legislation guaranteeing
them the same protection now sought
by the postoffice clerks. AS matters
stand at present, a postoffice clerk has
practically no specified rights. In the
first place, the service is without class
ification. No matter what the effici-
ency or experience of a clerk may be,
his pay and promotion is entirely de-
pendent upon the whim of his post
master. inexperienced men frequently
receive the same compensation as a
clerk who has the advantage of thor
ough familiarity with his work, while

CHILLY FOR sILvERITEs.
BalfOurss Letter Confession Oi
Defeat for BimetaIlists.

LONDON, Sept. 8.-The Graphic
thinks that the bimetallists will get
cold comfort out of Hon. A. j. Bal
four's letter, explaining his recent ut
terances in parliament against the
feasibility of an international confer
ence.
"The letter. the Graphic says, 'vir-
tually ConfeSSeS that the cause Of
which he is the most prominent cham
pion is hopeless. The fact is, that
even assuming a theoretic excellence
sufficient motive power behind the ma
tons to unmale the currency and
other revolutions which please the
academic disputants. In America, re-
turning prosperity has forced the sill
yer men into silence"
The Daily. News says on the. same
that was ever signed by a British min
lister. Mr.. Balfour is now the author
lied exponent of the governments
financial policy. What he says the
treasury says. Is it to be endured that
the first lord of the treasury should
treat the gold standard as mere
subject of academic debate? He does
view of the situation. A Mohammedan
archbishop of Canterbury would not
be more incongruOuS than a. bimetalliSt
first lord of the treasury"
The substance of Mr.. Balfour's let
ter, which was yesterday cabled to the
Associated Press, was that his views
on bimetallism had undergone no
had been in favor of an international
agreement, but he did not believe that
an international conference at this
time would effect such an agreement.

ANplHILATED FIVE
DYNAMITE DOES DEADLY WORK
AT SPECHT,S FERRY, NEAR
DUBUQUE.
DEAD HORRIBLY MANGLED.
A HOLE FIFTEEN FEET DEEP
GOUGED INTO THE SOLID
ROCK.
Not "a building but Suffered From
the Force of the EXpIO-
sion.

DUBUQUE, To-, Sept. S.-Edward
Latshaw, a subcontractor on the
government work on the Mississippi
river, had 600 pounds of dynamite
stored away in the cellar of house
at Spechts Ferry, twelve miles north
of here. Today his son, while prac-
ticing with a revolver, missed the
and entering the dynamite. The
house was blown to splinters, and
the following persons killed:
EDWARD LATSHAW AND HIS
WIFE, CHARITY.
RAY LATSHAW, twelve years.
MAT LATSHAW,, eight years, all of
HANS BJoRNsTADT, of La Croose,
Wis.
Wabasha, may die; Ed Bench, of Lans-
ing, eye knocked out and madly
bruised; Mabel Latshaw, skull frac-
tured.
The dead are terribly mangled.
A four-year-old baby in the party
escaped unhurt. Glass in buildings
in the hamlet was all broken, and
boats on the opposite side of the
cial train from Dubuque took ply
sicians to the scene, and brought the
wounded to hospitals here.
The scene of the explosion is a lit
tie hamlet, containing only hotel,
depot, warehouse and few shanties.
The force of the explosion tore
HOLE FIFTEEN FEET DEEP
in the solid rock, wrecked the build
ing above it, and damaged nearly
every other building. The baby girl
was lying across her mothers dead
and mutilated body and was crying
piteouSly for her. Latshaw's body
was found 200 yards away, his head
partly buried in the earth. The boy
who did the shooting was thrown
over the tops of high trees, falling
to the earth a shapeleSs. unrecog-
nizable mass. Hans BjornStadt' S
body was found 200 feet from the
building, every bone broken and his
body bruised and blackened. The
mothers head was crushed to a jelly,
while her body bore no marks of the
terrific explosion. In Specht'S hotel
every window was shattered and the
building otherwise damaged. The side
of the warehouse caved in, and a
smaller building near it was unroofed.
Barges moored on the opposite side
of the river were so much damaged
by the conclusion that it is feared
they may sink. The hamlet has ev-
cry appearance of being swept by a
cyclone, there being scarcely a sound
building left. The noise of the ex-
plosion was heard at Platteville, Wis,
ten miles away, and parties six miles
up the river thought a steamboat had
burst her boilers. Every boat and
train that could be had was busy car
rying people to the scene and during
the day thousands were there. The
wounded at Dubuque are doing well
tonight. Coroner Gregoire will hold

WAS JOHN MARRIEDs
Puzzling Question Developed in a
Contest for an Estate.


SPOKANE, Wash, Sept S-The
contest for the estate of old John Wy
ant, who was murdered near Span
gle, this county, three years ago, has
developed one of the most puzzling
mysteries in the history of the West.
John and Joseph Wyant were Vir-
ginia boys who came West many years
ago. Joseph settled down in Iowa,
married and brought up a family of
twelve children. John went to Mis-
souri,, and the question Of this mar
riage is now in dispute. Several
years ago John came to Washington
and took up fine farm near Spokane.
There he lived alone, considered a
bachelor, until the night of his mur-
der, and the attempt of the murderer
to cover evidence of his crime by
firing the house. A young man who
claims to be the son of the murdered
man is here claiming the property,
and this is now before Judge Moore,
of the superior court. Dispositions
taken in Virginia and Nebraska, the
congressman's former home, conflict
as to his identity. Some of the neigh
bors are quite positive that John Wy
ant was never married. Others are
fully positive that he was A decision
is not expected for some time.

DENVER, Col, Sept. SIN a pub
lished letter replying to criticisms of
Frank P. Arbuckle, chairman Of the
Democratic state committee and re-
ceiver Of the land Office, which accused
him of disloyalty to the Democratic
party, S. S. Thomas, member of the
national Democratic committee for
Colorado, says:
IF the party in national convention
construed Clevelandism to be synony-
nous with Democracy, it needs no
prophet to forecast its certain fate. If
the man who rode into power upon its
greatest tidal wave has in two short
years wrecked its fortunes and laid it's
face in the dust, is to be commended
for his accomplishment, then is Ichabod
written upon our party's future. 1

shall continue to do SO as long as it
continues to trample the party prin-
ciples under foot. I have said and
probably will say, that it has repudi-
ated every, plank in the platform.
Even the presidents boasted pol
icy of civil service reform
is by-werd among all men.
During his first administration Mr..
Cleveland removed a district attorney
in Missouri because he was trying to
manipulate a party caucus. At pres
ent his secretary of the interior, who
in 1890 openly advocated the sub-treas-
ury scheme of the farmers alliance, is
now beginning in Georgia to cast his
vote for sound money and encour-
aging his subordinates by his example
to run the machine everywhere.

been realized long since in a splendid
building. But it was not deemed
advisable to understand the task,
and for some two or more years the
matter has rested. There has been
pressing need all the while, how
ever, for guild house This season
special effort has been made toward
securing one, and at present a. hand
some new building is well on toward
completion. 1t is the expectation
that 1t will be dedicated during the
general convention in October.
To meet the expenses of this build
ing has taken the careful planning
and efficient work of the rector. Mr..
Morgan, and the building board, and
withal they have been able to ac-
complish it is seemingly more than
the congregation can do. How to
settle this financial problem is the
question with them now. In addi-
ton to the building fund the current
expense fund is also large. At a
meeting Of the vestry on Friday
evening the matter was thoroughly
canvassed by the rector and the
vestry. The latter did not seem to
see any way out of the difficulty,
and Mr.. Morgan, after considering
the matter, took the initiative by
suggesting that in order to reduce
the current expenses he would re-
lease. the congregation from their
obligation in order that the current
expenses being cut down, the con-
gregation would have it easier in
taking care of the building fund.
The suggestion was taken under
advisement. and as yet remains un-
settled. Mr.. Morgan, when seen by
a G b e reporter last night, said
when the matter was mentioned:
Il have really nothing to say in the
matter, and what 1 shall say will
be said to the congregat ation first"
It was reported that Mr.. Morgan had
resigned to accept either a call TO
Dayton, O., or to San Francisco, but
there is no truth in this as he not
received a call to either place. They
have corresponded with him, as have
other congrega tions since he became
the rector of st. Johns. A meeting Of
when the matters pertaining to the
church's finances will be settled. 1t
is expected that during the general
convention in Minneapolis that the pull
pit of the church will be occupied by
the visiting bishops. The programme
so far arranged is:
First Sunday in October-Opening of
the guild house; morning service and
sermon by Bishop White, of Indiana.
the chursh's former rector In the
afternoon Bishop Rulison, of Central
Pennsylvania, will preach.
For the second Sunday of the month
Bishop Leonard, of Northern Ohio. will
preach in the morning and Bishop Vim
cent, of Southern Ohio. in the evening.
On the third Sunday Bishop Ses-
sunes. of New Orleans. will speak in
the morning and Bishop Gailor, of
Tennessee, in the afternoon.
For the fourth Sunday the bishops
have not been announced.

military turnout. This news Is most
favorably received by citizens, and
when the governor arrives tomorrow,
instead of hostile demonstration, he
will be most warmly received by the
populace and formally welcomed by
the city council and provincial govern
ment. Though Mr.. Patterson is an
outsider, he is known to be an honor
able man, and outside of few BOOM
ers Of other aspirants for the position,
he is more acceptable to the people as
a whole than any local man. 1t is
quite safe to say that Premier Green
