DIsGRACEFUL INCIDENT.
Gov. Clark and Mr.. Jones Have
an Expectoration Encoun-
ter.

the face of the Governor of the
commonwealth quickly return
ed by violent emission of ex-
ecutiVe saliva upon the fea-
lures Of the lawmaker, and a
flourish Of firearms in the hands
of the Governor, was witnessed
in the lobby Of Gleason's hotel
here this afternoon and was the
result of the sensational charges
of bribery in connection with
the railroad commission bill
sprung in the House Of Repre-
sentatives yesterday by Mr..
Yancy Of Philips county.
Mr.. Jones of Marion county,
one Of the principals in the al
tercation of this affair yestel-
day, replied to point of Pr.
sonal privilege and denounced
Governor Clarke as being at
the bottom OF the charges. He
said that Gov. Clark was d
demagogue and was going
around like the assassin in the
night with a knife stabbing in
the back men who are his peers.
This afternoon Gov. Clark
met Jones in the lobby at the
Gleasons' and requested a pr
vate interview with him. Jones
replied that he would accom-
pany the Governor nowhere aud
that if the chief executive had
anything to say to him he must
make it known there. Hot
words followed, and in q fit Of
anger Jones spat in the Cover
nor's face. Gov. Clark, trem-
bled with anger, returned the
insult and he, quick as fash,
had drawn his revolver and the
difficulty might have resulted
IN bloodshed but for the quick
action Of bystanders who dis
armed Governor Clark. The
Governor who was later arrest

SAW CATARTNO
CARA KILLED.
Hugo Schultz Was Spectator
OF Garza's Attack on the
Armory and His Death.
Milwaukee Sentinel.

Hugo Schultz, VIM. Schultz
and Henry Filter returned last
night from Bocas del Toro, Uni
ted States of Colombia, South
America, where they witnessed
the killing of Gen. Catarino
CARA, tn notorious Mexican
on whose head the United
States government, it is said,
had placed a reward of $780,
900. Hugo Schultz is a repor-
ter Of Der Abend Post. He left
Milwaukee Feb. 10 on a visit
to Frederick Filter, one of the
heaviest stockholders of the b.
L. Helm Banana Company of
Bocas de Toro, who offered him
a confidential position with the
firm. In speaking of the bat
tie in which Cara was killed
Mr.. Schultz last night said;
"When we got to Bocas del
Toro, a town of 5000 people, we
were told that the Conservative
party, which fayors high tariff,
was in power and that the Lib
erals were trying to overthrow
the government. On the morn
ing of March 8 we were awak
ened from our slumber by the
firing of shots in the town. We
rushed to the center of the
place and saw that the fighting
was all DIT the armory, where
about thirty government troops
were in charge. The fighting
was fierce as could be, and the
attacking party seemed to be
getting the best of the battle.
While the battle was in pro
gress nobody knew who the at
lacking party was and it was
not until the fight was over that
the identity of the leader be
came known.
GOVERNMENT TROOPS FLED.
"Seems that while the sentry
at the armory was on duty
some one crawled up to him
and struck him down with a
club. Before he could recover,
a party of about twenty-five
men, well armed, landed from
"a schooner close by and storm
ed the armory. The govern
ment troops were completely
taken by surprise and fed from
the building in disorder. The.
citizens by this time were all
awakened and rushed to the
almory. The government troops
continued to retreat and were
driven into the sea. The lead
er of the attacking party work
ed like a beaver. Never have
[ seen a man hustle about like
he did. First he was here, then
there and it seemed. as if there
were five Garzas Jumping about
among his handful Of men, who
were fast being killed off. Gar
"a was just leading a charge on
the troops in the water when
suddenly he threw his carbine
high in the air, raised his arms
and staggered over, shouting
as he did so, "Gracias a Dios,
(Thank Cod When Cara
fell his men became confused.
They stampeded in all direc
tons and were followed by the
government troops, who then
took courage. All rushed for

into into Cara and pinned him
to the ground. They then charg
ed on the retreating rebels and
took them prisoners or killed
them. The fighting lasted un-
till about 7 o'clock. Of the
twenty-five men who were with
Cara all but seven were killed
and they were taken prisoners.

after the fighting had sub
sided an employee of the Helms
company looked at the remains
OF the fallen leader. 1t was
thought until then that he was
De Ruiz, a Mexican, but the
employee recognized him as
Cara. A search of the dead
leaders pockets revealed pa
pers addressed to CARA, among
them being a list of all the
wealthy merchants of the sur
rounding country whom he in
tended to assess with heavy
taxes if he were successful.
The killing of the bandit caus
ed great rejoicing. Bocas del
Toro has the reputation in
South America of being wealthy
on account Of it's large COM
mercial interests. 1t is the larg-
est center in the world for
shipping bananas. CARA, as /
was told there, had been en-
gagged by the liberals to attack
the town with the view of cap
turing it and robbing the mer-
chants. He expected the sup
port of the Liberals Of Bocas
del Toro when he made the at
tack, but in this he was disap-
pointed, as no one came TO his
assistance. Had he been VIC
torious he would have swept
down on the other towns in the
neighborhood and the Liberals
would then have established a
stronghold. While Cara was at
lacking the seacoast there was
heavy fighting in the interior,
but when the announcement
came that Cara had been kill

rebellion was soon suppressed ~

bat during recent years became
famous as a freebooter on whose
head the Mexican. as well as
the American government, had
set large reward. He was a
native of Mexico, but was rear
ed in Brownsville, Tex, where
he was often told that he would
die with his boots on on account
of his wild habits. He received
a good education and later be-
came a Mexican editor. He then
began his assault on the gov
eminent. He was frequently in
.scrimmages and shot several
men before he became an out
law. His expedition against the
Mexican government resulted
in dismal defeat, Since that
time he had been fleeing from

prevailed, carefully made plan of arrange

with new company of guests, under such
conditions, what but a successful, social
occasion could result? There have been
numerous receptions at Lindenhurst, but
never more enjoyable one than this.
AS each guest left the dressing room he
was given tag bearing his name, on the

and other lively amusements kept the com
pany busy.
An especially delightful feature was the
music furnished by the Springfield Mando-
ln-Guitar club. They played at brief in
tervals throughout the entire evening and
their artistic work was much appreciated
by the listeners. The club, which has been
organized several years, is under the leader
ship of Edward n. Richards, and is a pop-
ular musical organization in Springfield.
The selections Monday evening showed a
wide range, and skill and taste were dis
played in their renderings. Songs were
given by Miss Maud Philips of Mortified
and Miss Helen Robertson of Putney, and
Rev. Z. o. Day made timely and we'll
chosen remarks. He alluded to the arrival
OF the overdue La Gascogne, and compared
the young peoples societies to the small
tugs which towed her ssfe into harbor.
The beauty of Christian unity as illus
trated in the gathering there was spoken
of, and appreciatve recognition of Mr.. and
Mrs. Crowelrs hospitality was made.

THE NEW TOWN HOUSE.

The Sentiment at Saturdays Meeting
was Unanimously i'm Favor of Hemo"-
cling.
That there is widespread interest in the
proposed remodeling of the town hall, ana
that the sentiment is Overwhelmingly IN
favor of the improvement, was shown ny
the meeting held in the lower town nan
Saturday evening. Two hundred men
were packed into the room, and lOO more
looked in at the door and then turned
away. as there were no vacant seats. COl'
Hooker was chosen chairman OF the meet,
ing. II. II. Lawrence, who has deVoteu
much work and study to the project, eN-
hbited the plans and gave full eXplana-
ton of them, bringing out the facts pup
lished in The Phoenix last week, Win
more detailed information.
LAWYERS Martin and Haskins reviewed
at length the statutes as applying to I'M
provements of town houses. They EN-
phasized the fact that the town had legal
right to make the improvements as sug-
gested. At Barre an opera house had been
built by the town, and the courts held that
the action of the town was legal when the
primary object of the building was town
as seemed fit. Gov. Fuller spoke at length
upon the proposed changes, and urged that
ventilation and heating were important
subjects to be considered. lie also said
that before a contract had been made for
new building or repairs the builders were
accustomed to name high figures, and cited
the case of the Canal street schoolhouse,
where the estimated cost was $4,000 for
Al. III 10 usa finally
made for $4,000.
Dr. Holton spoke in favor of the project,
and said that the building should be a
town house, that is, for use for all kinds OF
public gatherings. f. l.. Hunt thought
that no addition should be made to the
front of the building, but Mr.. Martin
answered that we would defeat the whole
project if we began to bubble over minor
details. After several questions had been
asked and answered DR.. Holton's motion
that committee of three be appointed to
prepare an article to be placed in the war
rant for the next town meeting, providing
for the proposed Improvements at cost
not exceeding $25, 900, was carried. Dr..
Holton, Col. X. Haskins and J. l.. Martin
were chosen the committee, and at the sug-
gestion of Mr.. Martin Mr.. Lawrence and
Col. Hooker were named as additional
members. The meeting adjourned after
Col Hooker asked for viva voce vote to
show that the sense of the meeting was in
favor of remodeling the hall. This vote
was unanimous. An important fact was
brought out by DR.. Holton's question in
regard to the tax which would be necessary.
Collector Gordon explained that the addi-
ton to poll tax would be four cents, and
on property, 20 cents on $1,000
The committee met Wednesday, evening
and drew up articles calling for an appro-
priation not exceeding S25, 000 providing
to carry this appropriation into effect, and
to elect building committee to have
charge of the work.

The Town Agency Liquor Sales Amount
ed To $4,000 in ISO1---:he New Law
for Payment Of 10 per Cent TO the state


ed To $4,000 in ISOI---:he New Law
for Payment of 10 per Cent TO the state
State Treasurer Field early this week
called the attention of the selectmen to an
act passed by the last legislature relating to
the profits of liquor agencies. The law
read as follows: If upon the annual
settlement of the account of a town or city
liquor agency by the auditors, there is
found balance in favor of the town or
city in excess of 10 per cent of the total
sales of liquor for the year, such excess
shall be paid into the state treasury bv
said town or CITY," 1t is the duty of the
auditors to report the liquor agency account
TO the state treasurer. As there is no
time stated when the law shall take effect
there will probably be some disputes over
the period for which the state can claim
her percentage. From Treasurer Fields
letter it would appear that the business of
the year just closing is to be made the basis
of the settlement.
1t would seem that the legislature did
not intend to make the law retroactive and
that the date of its going into effect would
be February l, 1895.
II the town is compelled to pay on the
excess over 10 per cent on the past wears
business it will mean the payment of $1,000
from the town treasury, as the profits on
sales OF about $4,000 were nearly $1,000
