HILLS ATTEMPTS SUICIDE,
A Witness Against Durrant Tries to
Take His Own Life-The
Police SkepticaI.

G. T. Hills,who testified for the prosecu-
ton in the Durrant- Williams case that he
saw young man and woman enter the
side door of Emmanuel Baptist Church on
Good Friday evening, attempted suicide
at his residence, 2031s Bartlett street, by
cutting his left forearm twice with razor.
The pain and the sight of his own blood
brought to him desire to live, and by
rudely bandaging his wounds with towel
he succeeded in checking the flow OF
blood.
Yesterday Hills spent in walking about
the Mission. About o'clock he entered a
saloon on Bartlett and Twenty-third
streets, and while there the bandages be-
came loosened, and the cuts bled afresh,
and when Hills attempted to leave he
tainted from loss of blood and fell to the
floor.
Hills states that he tried to kill himself
because he despaired of obtaining employ
ment. He hints at other troubles, but de-
clines to enter into any details.
The police, however, do not believe Hills
reiterated statements that he attempted
his own life. They think that an attempt
has been made by some one to put him out
OF the way, and an officer in plain clothes
watches continually by his bedside. The
authorities do not, however, volunteer any
reason for their belief.

SILVER is THE ISSUE.
The One Important Question
Before the Country, Says
Senator White.
Little Tariff Legislation May Be EN-
pected From the New Congress
and That Not Important.

Senator White arrived in San Francisco
from the south at noon yesterday The
visit, the Senator stated, was purely one
of business. 81 am not here on any politi-
cal matters" he said, land have not had
time to-day to talk politics. I am looking
after some legal interests, and shall to-
morrow go to Alameda.
There is little to say of the situation in
Washington. The silver strength in the
Senate has already been tested, and the
new Senators but add to the silver forces.
In the upper body look for definite and
early action on silver in the new Congress,
but the fate of silver bill in the House 1
am unable to guess. The majority of the
House members will undoubtedly be
found against an unlimited coinage propo-
sition. The greater part of the new mem
bers are untried and unpledged, however,
and the silver strength may be shown to
be much greater than anticipated. The
Eastern silver sentiment is gradually grow
ing, and it has come TO be understood that
the currency issue must be fairly met in
the next National campaign. 1t is likely,
therefore, that the newer Representatives
in Congress will look with considerable
favor on silver, as they cannot but note the
changing sentiment.
AooA AOA very 1lltlS ldIA1i ISSlsldIlOH.
In fact / do not think the Republicans will
even propose a new tariff bill. The cur
rency question is so predominant that I
believe it will form the great issue before
Congress. Small changes in the tariff
regulations may be looked for, but they
will not amount to enough general inn
portance to merit more than passing at
tention. But there is really little 20 say
On the tariff issue, which, in fact, is al
most past being an issue, and it is gener-
ally looked upon as settled-for long
time at least"
Senator White was particularly pleased
with the crop outlook in Southern Califor-
the larger orchards in his county had
shown the crop to be above par, and he
looks for prosperous and encouraging
season.

said he, "but now that it is all over don't
mind saying that was quite apprehensive
up to the time the official message came
from Mr.. Bayard. There is no doubt that
the affair is at an end as no circumstances
can now intervene to prevent the execu-
ton OF the agreement. The suggestion
that Nicaragua has yet to accept is mere
formallty which she has already accepted
and, in fact, has urged the agreement
through her representatives. But such
further assurances as are necessary will be
begun. The payment of the money is be-
yond question. Nicaragua's word is SUI
ficient but, in addition, there is the assur-
ance of Salvador"
DR.. Guzman was asked what other steps
would be taken.
''There is only one more STEP" said he,
''and that is for the British ships to sail
from Corlnto. expect that will occur on
Saturday, perhaps by tomorrow" As the
interview closed Mr.. Guzman said: zone
thing want to emphasize, and that is my
appreciation of the consideration shown
me and my Government by the State De-
partment. The kindly manner in which
Secretary Gresham and all the officials
have treated the subject at a time of emery
ency is source of congratulation TO me,
and certainly will be to my Government
when the facts become known"
DR.. Guzman sent a telegram to his Gov
eminent informing them of Great Britain's
acceptance.

TO OVERTHROW zELAYA.
Nicaraguans in a Ferntent OUer His
arbitrary Rule.

ncGrGgu1nS IN Eerntent Over HIS
arbitrary Rule.
NEW YORK, N. Y, May 2.-Passen-
gers on the Colombia, from Colon, report
that Nicaragua is in a ferment over Presi-
dent Zelaya's arbitrary rule. One OF the
passengers says: "PIans for Zelaya' s
overthrow are well under way, and when
the coffee crop is harvested there will be an
uprising throughout the country. Zelaya's
policy in the expulsion of Hatch was out
rageous."
When Barros returned from his useless
mission to England President Zelaya kept
secret from every one the fact that the
Minister had failed. When the British
warships arrived at Corinto the people
were amazed.
One OF the Presidents latest acts of per-
secution, it is alleged, was the brutal
treatment of son of ex-President Zavala,
at Granada. Zavala was at the theater.
The place was surrounded by soldiers.
He was taken out and the soldiers searched
and then beat him. The other passengers
say that two agents of the revolutionary
party on their way to France were on the
Colombia. They also declare that the
shipment of 600 cartridges on the City
| of Para to Guatemala was significant, in
view of the present situation at Nicaragua.

Sir Edtcard Gray Explains the Nicar-

SIR Edtcdr6 Gray Explains the Nacdr-

LONDON, ENG, May parliamentary
Secretary of Foreign Office Sir Edward
Gray, replying to William Bollard Byless,
member of the Shipley Division of York
shire in the House of Commons, to-day
said the proposal of Nicaragua to refer the
dispute between that country and Great
Britain to commission of arbitration was
received on April IL, but, he added, when
the papers are submitted to Parliament it
will be seen that it was not q case of arbi-
tration. Mr.. Byless was also asked
whether the United States had suggested
the terms for an amicable settlement with
Nicaragua. To this question Sir Edward
Gray answered that no such proposal had
been received from the United States
Government. He hoped. however, that a
settlement would soon be arranged.
