RECORDS FALL At NAPA.
Foster Lowers the Worlds
Mark for One-Third of
a Mile.
Chapman and Parker in an INSANE
toned Trial Set a New
Figure.

NAP A, CAL, Oct. 15.-Walter Foster has
been in Napa for week, training at Agri-
cu ltural Park, and quad team arrived
Saturday to pace him in record breaking
trials. This afternoon Foster went against
the worlds record, flying start. third of a
mile, both paced and unpaced. Delmas,
Davis. Jones and Dow manned the quad
in the third, which was made in 80 Cat.
After q short rest Foster rode third of
q mile unpaced. He came down the stretch
in grand shape, making the distance in
:32 2-5, which beats the worlds record, I'M
paced, by six seconds, and equals the
worlds record paced for this distance,
which has been held by Johnson.
Chapman and Parker, two Napa boys,
rode an exhibition third unpaced on tan
dem in 81 1-5, making the quarter in :23
fiat. Chapman and Parker could not get
the L. A. w. sanction, so their record,
which is world d-beater, will not stand.
If the weather is favorable Foster will at
tempt to break the third of mile paced
flying start class record tomorrow.

To Indict Misc FIaaLer.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 15.-The
Grand Jury has decided to return an in
dictment for manslaughter against Miss
Elizabeth NJ. Flagler. The return is ex-
pected to be made within the next few
days.
Miss Flagler shot and killed young
Ernest Green, the son of Richard Green,
Secretary Carlisles messenger. early in
August. 1t was asserted by Miss Flagler
that young Green had been in the habit
of stealing fruit from the grounds sur
rounding the Flagler home, and to frighten
him and the boys accompanying him she
fired. The ball hit Green and caused his
death. A Coroners jury acquitted Miss
Flagler. but the case was presented to the
Grand Jury.
Miss Flager's trial will probably take
place in few weeks. Both General Flag
Ter and his daughter feel sure that they
will be able to prove that the young woman
simply pulled the trigger ii; order to
frighten the boys away. The colored resi-
dents are greatly pleased over the deter
mination to indict Miss Flagler.

1t was fully half an hour after the knock.

THE QUEEN UNPOPULAR.
There Is Reason to Believe
That She Has Again Gone
Into Hiding.
ONCE AN EXILE FOR YEARS
Recent Disturbances in Seoul
Thought to Be Only Domestic
Difficulties.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 15-The
japanese legation has no information to-
day respecting the troubles in Korea, and
the officials here believe the disorders have
ceased and nothing further will occur to
disturb the domestic peace of the king
dom. The Toxic Foreign Office has sent
one of its trusted officials, Mr.. Komura,
who was Charge d'Affaires at Peking when
the war between China and Japan arose,
and who has more recently been the di-
rector of the political bureau of the For
eign Office, to Seoul to investigate and
report upon affairs there.
The reason assigned for the attack upon
the Queen is her unpopularity with the
Korean people and the fact that she has
foisted score of her relatives as high Off
cials upon them. Thirteen years ago Tai
Won-Kun. the father of the King, led an
assault on the palace with the declared
purpose of killing his daughter-in-law.
The latter was reported as having been
slain and color was given to this impress
sion by her disappearance from Seoul for
three years. Then she suddenly reap
peared and resumed her domestic and off,
cial duties at the palace. During all that
period she. had been living in retirement
in the country, fearing to make known her
whereabouts lest the knowledge should be
followed by another attempt on her life.
She is said to be woman of strong mind,
whose influence upon her husband is very
great. In view of her previous experience
in escaping the trap set for her bv Tai
Won-Kun, it is thought TO be not unlikely
that Notwithstanding the reports of her
death she may yet be alive.
The Japanese Government will, it is
said, preserve peace in Korea. 1t is ap-
parently not disposed to attach much i'm
portance to the recent affair in Seoul, be-
lieying it to be a personal attack dpon the
Queen, and not indicative of any wide
spread conspiracy against the Government
ITSELF This is regarded as the more likely
when it is remembered that the present
King is the son of Tai-Won-Kun.

SP0KAKE'S POLICE WAR.
Judge Arthur Quashes a Restraining Writ
Issued BY ON Associate on the
EeDcb

SPOKANE, WASH, Oct. 15.-The ju-
dietary is now fairly in the fight over the
possession of the Police Department OF
the city. Last nights secret ses-
sion resulted in a failure to make
Judge Moore back down from
his position, as he refused to recall the writ
restraining Mayor Belt. This afternoon
his Populist associate, Judge Ar
thur, quashed his writ, and issued
similar one on application of
Mayor Belt restraining the Board of Po-
lice and the force from doing any act to
take possession. This action has aroused
the anger of Judge Moore, and what
action he will take 10 retaliate is anxiously
awaited.
Attorney Post for the board left fer
Olympia last night, and it is rumored that
he has gone to secure writ from the Su-
preme Court to restrain Judge Arthur and
Mayor Belt, throwing the department
into the hands of the board. The City
Council to-day refused to pay the Mayors
police force for the past months service,
but ordered salaries paid to patrolmen act
ing under the Police Board.
The citizens are rapidly becoming dis
gusted with the disgraceful row, and are
seriously considering the advisability of
removing the contending officials from Of
tice before blood is spilled.

RANK INJUSTICE.
If Other People Knew the Truth 1t
Might Be Different.
From Weaverville Comes a
Note of Warning.

1t is pity that there are not more peo-
ple in this world OF ours who are willing 70
let the rest of us benefit by their expert
ences. When a man knows anything that
is for the general benefit OF his race IL IS
strange that he does not see how aos0-
lutely unfair it is to keep EXPERlENCE,
which cannot be bought with money, 10
himself to the exclusion of all others. Ana
vet the men who do this continually are TO
be counted by the thousands. A consplcu-
ously bright example, though OF those VINO
are infinitely more public-spirited and OF
those who abhor anything like injustice,
is Mr. s. J. Bailey, the well known ana
highly respected thinker, whose home is
now in Marvsvil!e. Like most men occa-
sionally subject to nervous strain Mr.
Bailey became once the victim of an in
sidlous disease, which was gnawing at his
very hearts strings, and he was at loss
as to what it was best TO do. That he ala
the very best thing possible is now not
matter of doubt. for he applied to the man
ayers OF the great medical institution which
is located in the big white building at the
junction of Market, Ellis and Stockton
streets, and of what was done for him by
the specialists of that grand establishment
he speaks in plain terms. And he tells OF
what ne knows we'll. Read his letter. II
is right straight TO the point.

Here is comfort for every nervous man
that there is on earth. for Mr.. Bailey was
indeed a sick man when he placed
himself unreservedly in the hands of the
clever physicians of the Hudson Medical
Institute, but they have succeeded, as
thousands of others will willingly testify,
in curing all the durable cases which have
been brought 10 them.

THREE IMP ORTANT CASES,
Suits In Which California Is
Interested Before the
Supreme Court.
Mrs. Stanford Conferred With the
Attorney-General in Reference
to the Railroad Action.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 15.-Three
very important California cases will soon
come before the United States Supreme
Court for argument. The most important
is that of the United States against the
Stanford estate. Mrs. Stanford was at the
Department of Justice this morning and
saw AttorneyGeneral Harmon about her
case. She endeavored to persuade him
not to appeal from the decision of the Cali
fornia court but finding that he was so de-
cided she agreed with him that it would be
best for all parties concerned to have the
case settled finally in as short order as pos
sible. Accordingly, Attorney General
Harmon telegraphed Attorney McKisick
at San Francisco, requesting him to for
ward appeal papers as soon as possible, so
that he could go before the Supreme Court
with motion to advance the case on the
docket.
The case from California involving the
constitutionality of the celebrated Wright
irrigation law will soon be argued. There
are two cases in which similar questions
are involved, that of the Fallbrook irriga
ton district and that of Tregera VS.. Mo-
desto district. One California court de-
cided the law constitutional, but in the
other case the decision was the reverse.
Mr.. Hubbard, representing Fallbrook dis
trict, moved that these cases be consoli-
dated, and Joseph Choate, his opposing
counsel, concurred in this motion. The
motion was taken under advisefnent. The
date for argument will be announced later.
The Tregera case was to have been argued
October 81, but Chief Justice Fuller said
that if these cases were consolidated they
should, in view of their great importance
be set for later date than the 21st. 1t has
been reported from Indianapolis that ex.
President Harrison would appear in this
case, but both Choate and Hubbard said
they had not heard of his being retained
by one side or the other.
Attorney-General Harmon said to the
CALL correspondent to-day that he had in
tended to go to Atlanta next Monday with
President Cleveland and his Cabinet

SECURED RUeS AND WINES.
Washington Society People Turned Out tc
Buy the Collection of the Russian
Minister.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 15.-There
were more society people at the Russian
legation to-day than have been gathered
under one roof since the season ended.
The occasion was the sale of the household
goods of the Minister, Prince Cantacuzene,
who will shortly leave for his new post at
Stuttgart. The sale was advertised to
begin at 10 clock, and half an hour later
the legation was so crowded as to make
locomotion difficult. The sale served the
purpose of a sort of social clearing up, in
that it brought together, for the first time
since the lenten season, a number of So
ciety people who have been spending the
intervening period at the seashore or in
Europe. The articles offered for sale were

TEHACHAPI FLAME-S SWEPT
A Dozen Buildings in the
Center of the Town
Destroyed.
Feeble Efforts of a Bucket Brigade
Unable to Stay the Con-
flagration.

TEHACHAPI, CAL, Oct. 16. - Te-
hachapi was deluged by fire tonight. and
confagration is still raging in the heart of
the town, opposed only by the feeble efforts
of citizens fighting 1t with buckets of
water. a dozen buildings have been swept
away, and though the flames are partially
sdbdued, there is no telling where the
destruction will end.
The first alarm was given at about s
O'Clock. Flames were then bursting from
the rear of shoeshop owned by H. E.
Coleman. They spread rapidly to the
courtroom of Judge Lee and then to the
postotfice. Across the alley was the Piute
Hotel, and in a short time it was a mass Of
smoldering ruins.
The burned district covers the center of
town and the flames have made clean
sweep. There was little insurance because
of the prohibitive rates. 1t is impossible
to get anything like an accurate report of
losses, for the fire is not nearly under con-
troll and the town is unprotected, except
by the bucket brigade.
The brick store of II. M. Jacobs stopped
the flames from a further spread west,
and hard and heroic work of citizens saved
the east side of Green street.
All 6uRlue anu WaIer-Cdr came UP from
Moiave by order of D. Burkhalter, but ar
rived too late to be of any material assist
ance. Harry Mead, one of the railroad
boys who came with it, had his right ankle
broken while fighting the blaze. This was
the only casualty known.
The estimated losses are: E. L. Spen-
Ger, on saloon and fixtures, $500; G. A.
Lee, Postmaster, furniture and fixtures
$3.50; III. Witkowski, confectionery and
news stand, $500; H. E. Coleman, shoe
shop, $500; F. & A. Buhn, on building
and restaurant, $1,000; Piute Hotel, bar
and stables, owned by John Iribarn,
between $4,000 and $40, COO; Charles Heath,
bar and fixtures, $500; Mrs. t. Borgwardt
on buildings, $4,000; D. Clark, meat
market, 500; H. NJ. Jacobs, baIed
hay, grain and building, about $4,000;
Walser & Hart, meat market, $3.50: Sid
Tourpin, saloon and fixtures, $1,000; NJ.
Hirschfeld, building and agricultural i'm
plements, $1,000; Mrs. NJ. A. Haigh, build
ing and confectionery, $500; Dan Reese
building and machinery, $500; H. Seger,
building, $500; R. R. Taylor, building, $500
There are some serious losses to small
holders in breakage in moving The Sum-
nit Suns outfit was saved, though in
badly mixed condition. Z. A. Carr, a
grocer, loses about 5000 or 500 by moving
These losses may be increased or reduced
when the losers can collect their scattered

RETURN OF CLEVELAND.
The President and Family
Again Occupy the White
House.
An UneVentfuI but Stormy Passage
to the Capital on the
Oneida.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 15-The
President arrived here at o'clock this
evening. He was accompanied by Private
Secretary Thurber and E. C. Benedict
who has been for the past four days his
host on board the steam yacht Oneida.
The party boarded the yacht off Gray
Gables and started down Buzzards Bay
about 5 o'clock Friday afternoon. A
rough sea was encountered during the run
to Sandy Point, near New Rochelle at the
western end of Long Island Sound, which
was reached about 9 o'clock Sunday morn
ing. The Oneida renamed at anchor
there all day, the President desiring to
fish, but it rained and prevented any sport.
On Sunday morning the yacht moved
down East River and anchored off Twenty
sixth street, the party going ashore and
dining with DR.. Bryant. Sunday after
noon the yacht went down the bay, an
choring for the night short distance
from Sandy Hook. AT 5 o'clock the next
morning the Oneida put to sea and set her
course for the capes of Chesapeake.
From Sandy Hook as far as the entrance
of Delaware Bay the ocean was exceed
ingIy rough.
Cape Henry and Cape Charles lights
were abeam at o'clock this morning. and
about daybreak the Potomac was entered.
The President was met at the wharf by his
carriage, which drove him rapidly through
the city, reaching the White House accom-
panied by Mr.. Benedict quarter past 4.
The President has improved notably in ap-
| pearance during the summer, and is evi-
