POISONING MYSTERY.

Two Boys Given Cake Containing
Strychnine-One Dead
Los ANGELES, March 6.-Johu Hem
derson and Edward Strange, two eight
year-old boys living in ths neighborhood
of Downey avenue and Hawkins street,
were poisoned with strychnine this after
noon by eating some cake given them by
Mrs. O'Hare, who resides on the corner
of Hawkins and Hanson streets. Young
Henderson died in terrible agony from
convulsions shortly after taking the poi
son, but the Strange boy, while greatly
suffering, is still alive, and will be preb-
ably saved.
The poisoning is mystery alike TO the
police and the people Of the noighbor-
hood where it occurred. The police
went to work on the case as soon as it
was reported, but up to a late hour had
found nothing that would warrant them
in making an arrest. Mrs. O'Hare,
while admitting giving cake to the chill
dren, strenuously denies that she knew
1t was poisoned, ana also denies that she
had any enmity toward the boys to whom
she gave the food.
About o'clock this evening John Hen
derson, Eddy Strange allu his little sister,
Ella Strange, Went to Mrs. O'Hare's
house to borrow q sickle. Mrs. O'Hare
gave the children some lady iugers, and
Stella was made the custodian of them.
She took a bite of one of tho cakes, but
finding it bitter, handed the rest to the
boys, Wlro ute them, but shortly after
ward they were taken sick. Eddy Strange,
who had eaten several apples Il short
time previous, succeeded in vomiting the
poison, but the Henderson boy died in
great agony.
Mrs. O'Hare claims to have found the
cakes on her doorstep over week ago,
and says she did not know they were
poisoned. Tho cakes contained large
doses Of strychnine.

BERLIN, March 6.-During the debate
in the Reichstag to-day the question of
restricting Jewish immigration was dis
cussed. Herr Haas suggested that nat
uralization should be made conditional
upon the national sentiment of the indi-
vidual applying fer it. and upon his
ability to earn his living.
Herr Reickert declared that Herr Haas
wished to erect a Chinese wall against
tree intercourse.
DR.. Won Boetticher said it was contrary
to the spirit Of the commercial treaties to
prevent Jew belonging to contracting
State from engaging in trade in Germany.
On the other hand, there was nothing to
prevent the Government from expelling
foreigner who infringed the police reg
ulations.
Herr Hermes. amid loud and unceasing
Interruptions, violently attacked the anti
Semites. whom he declared to be a dis
grace to Germany, and worse even than
the socialists.
Rector Ahlwardt, the notorious Jew
batter, made a violent diatripe against
the Jews, whom he repeatedly described
as being beasts of prey, swindlers and
pirates.
Herr Richter protested against the
President Of the Reichstag, Herr Levitt
zow, allowing such scandalous remarks
TO pass without censure, but Richter was
himself rebuked by Herr Levitzow, who,
amid loud applause from the members of
the right. said he would not permit his
conduct in the chamber to be criticised
To this Herr Richter retOrted: If l
have not the technical right to do so,
have at least the moral right on my side"

The discussion was then closed, and,
after heated personal criticisms, the pro-
posal OF Haas was rejected. Later the

SAN FRANCIsCo, March 6.-The Pacific
Mail steamer Acapulco, which arrived
to-day from Central American ports,
brings additional details of the wreck OF
the French steamship Amerique on Jam
uary 2Sth OF the Colombian Coast. The
Amerique was bound from France to
Car.hagena, Colombia, with ninety emi-
grants. During gale she was blown
upon the Bocas de Cenizas Reef. two
miles off the coast. She struck with such
force that her masts went by the board.
Luckily for those on board, the vessel
became spiked fast on the rocks, and she
settled down on the reef SO firmly that
the seas which swept over her decks did
not force her Off into the deep water.
The crew and passengers, however,
suffered untold hardships. For three
days they lay helpless on the doomed
vessel. The ships water supply gave out
the first day. 1t was impossible to launch
any liteboatS, owing TO the roughness Of
the sea. On the second day the watchers
on tue wreck sighted the Colombian gun
boat Lapapu, and were led to believe
that suCcor was al hand. But the gun
boat, after exchanging signals with the
wrecked vessel. steamed away on her
course. The hopes of the untortunates
were again raised the next morning,
when the Pacific Mail steamship
City of Para and the Mexican steamer
Eliza came within hailiug distance.
Both vessels passed close to the reef, and
after asking by signal for the state OF
affairs on the wreck, steamed away. On
the morning OF the fourth day the sea
went down and the Ans rique's people
were able TO quit the wreck in their
small boats. Once ashore, the emigrants
were taken care OF by the French Consul,
and the sailors were given passage back
TO France.
The passengers denounce in the most
bitter terms what was certainly most in
human treatment on the part OF the CO.
ombIan gunboaps officers and those of
the other steamers who refused TO offer
them aid IN their hours OF trouble.
