He testified that last Spring he again
asked her to marry him, and April was
fixed as the date, When the time came
she would not marry him. and he went
to New York and married another wo-
man.
McLaren said he visited the woman
to get possession of his child. She drew
a revolver. and during the struggle for
Its possession it went off. He could
not account for the second shot.

which thirty-seven additional employees
were given positions in the Assembly yes

the Assembly was asking an outrageous
expenditure of the peoples money, notwith-
standing many promises of retrenchment
made previous to the last election. He
asserted that the Assembly was already
spending over $725 day for attaches, and
he demanded reform. Rather than take
advantage of the many absent members,
however, he consented to allow his motion

Phelps from the Retrenchment Commit

not present, only fifty two responding, the
constitutional provision could not be sus-
pended to push the bill to third reading,
but under suspension of the rules the bill
was read a second time. The repeal en-
counters no opposition, hence final pas
sage of the measure is expected on Mon
day.
The Senate bill to give San Diego the

FEAR FOR THEIR LIVES.
ArmenianS Held in a State Of Terror
by the Turks.
Am American Citizen Arrested for No
Other Reason Than That He
Was an American.

BosToN, Jan. ia letter received from
a reliable source in Armenia by an Arme-
nian citizen here contains the following
statement: "Zeki Pasha has arrived at
Harplot with large force and announces
his determination to collect from the
Christians taxes for three years. Business
transactions are entirely suspended. All
the stores and shops are being closed for
thirteen days. The Christian population
is in state of great excitement and an
outbreak is feared at any moment. The
inhabitants of the village of Farasha, on
the river Zahanta, Cilicia, were attacked
by Circassians, and the slaughter of Arme-
mans was begun, when the Greeks in the
neighboring village of Karkaeny hastehed
to their assistance. Two hundred children
were saved from massacre and the Circas-
slams put to flight. The Turkish troops,
numbering 5000, are stationed at all the
principal passes. The whole region is in a
state of terror"
Another letter received here states that
Kriker Manasan, naturalized American
citizen, engaged in business in New York,
recently visited Tokat, his native city, in
Armenia, intending to arrange to bring his
family to this country. On the night he
arrived at home the house was surrounded
by Turkish soldiers, who dragged him
from the house almost naked and locked
him up in jail with two murderers. He
was kept there for two days and then taken
to Sassoun in irons, being compelled to
walk most of the way, while he was lashed
several times. From Sassoun he was
taken to Constantinople on a Turkish
steamer.
Although carefully guarded on the
steamer he managed to communicate with
some Arme mans, who appealed to the
American legation, and, on the interfer-
ence of the legation, Manasian was re-
leased. On being released he demanded
the eight pounds in Turkish money which
had been taken from him in redress of the
punishment he had received. The Turkish
Government investigated, but the author
tiles at Tokat denied that they had taken
the prisoners money.
Manasian stated that when he was ar
rested he informed his captor that he was
an American citizen, and was told that was
the reason he was captured. He COM
planned to the American Minister, and
Consul Jewett investigated, finding the
facts in the case substantially as reported
by Manasian. The latter is now on his
way to this country, and on his arrival will
at once visit Washington and lay before the
Government the evidence in support of his
statement.

mittee was held this afternoon to take ac-
ton on Speaker Lynch's request for re-
lease from instructions received to vote for
George c. Perkins for United States Sen
ator.
Resolutions were adopted setting forth
that at the Republican convention of San
Bernardino County, July q last, it was
unanimously resolved to support Senator
Perkins for reelection to the United States
Senate, and representatives in the Iegsla-
ture were instructed to use all honorable
means to secure such election, and as ]. c..
Lynch was nominated and elected on the
platform containing said resolution, the
committee demanded that he follow the
instructions contained in the resolution.
The resolution also contains request that
e. C. Seymour, representing the Thirty
ninth Senatorial District, use all honorable
means in his power to secure Perkins re-
election.
Senator Perkins to-day sent dispatch
to James McFadden, in which he stated
that he took no part in the contest for the
Speakership of the Assembly, and that
many of his warmest friends supported

about to snap the chain to the manger the
horse grabbed him by the left arm and
swung him around the stall several times.
All the time the stallion shook him and
got on him with both knees and continued
his grinding and shaking. The cries of the
young man were heard by passers-by, who
rushed to his assistance. A powerful man
grasped the horse by an ear and the nose
and tried to shut his wind off, but the
horse threw both men around as easily ap-
parently as if they were only feathers.
Another man ran in with a pitchfork and
jammed it into his eyes and then tried to
pry his jaws open, but it was no use. They
saw that they had to free the man, and
that quickly SO one of them ran for gun
and soon returned with pistol, placed it
behind the foreleg and fired. Immediately
the horse released his grip and Galley fell
and was dragged out of the stall, and not
any too soon, for just as the door was
slammed shut and the bolt sprung the
stallion came tearing after them and near
ly tore the door down. He then dropped
dead. Galley is dangerously hurt, but to

tanned. His arm is terribly lacerated. 1t

JOHN DACGETT OUT OF IT.
GEORGE G. PERKINS HOLDS HIS OWN.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 19.-There are twelve
apostles of Democracy who have united on
a Senatorial propaganda. Ten of these are
members OF the upper house and two are
Assemblymen. These are the apostles:
Senators Mathews, Biggy, Burke, Fay,
Whitehurst, Henderson, McAllister, Sea-
well, Langford and Gesford, and Assembly
men Reid and Bachman.
1t is a Mcguire propaganda, and the
twelve will cast their first ballot for the
Congressman from San Francisco as the
logical Democratic candidate This pur-
pose illustrates all hope OF a Democratic
caucus on Monday night, and defeats the
purpose of John Daggett, Superintendent
of the Mint, to secure the complimentary
vote of the legislators of his political
faith Daggett desires this vote, and it is
said that several Assemblymen expect to
secure positions in the Mint by thus honor
ing him. But the feud of the old Stockton
convention survives, and there are Sena-
tors who still adhere to the resolution in
which Daggett was so bitterly denounced
at the Democratic meeting Of 1884.
The twelve have been holding little con-
ferences among themselves, and at one
time they thought they could control the
Democratic contingent. They had hopes
of securing four others, which would give
them a majority of one in the caucus, as
there are thirty Democrats in the Legisla-
ture, but they have abandoned this hope
and now propose to act together. To-
morrow they will have their final confer
ence. When the Senatorial vote is called
it viii be found that they will vote as a
unit, and that in alphabetical order they
will follow the lead of Bachman and Biggy
The first vote will be given to Mcguire for
the position he has taken with reference to
the Reilly funding bill. After that they
may switch, and give complimentary votes
to various Democratic leaders, of whom
John Daggett will not be one.
The vote Will not go out of the Demo
cratic column, except In one contingency.
