LATE NEWS BY WIRE
Surrender of One of Gen. Ezeta's
Lieutenants.
TAKEN FROM AN AMERICAN SHIP
Direct Violation of International
Law Claimed.
WENT BRAVELY TO HIS FATE

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept 10.-The steamer
City cf Sydney. which has arrived from
Panama, brings particulars of the capture
of Florencio Bustamerto, orc OF Antonio
Ezeta's favorite leuterants, by the Sal
yador authorities 1t is supposed by the
Spanish Americans who came up on the
City of Sydney that he has been torn to
pieces by an Infatuated mob or publicly
shot in the streets of the city of San Sal
vador long before this
The surrender of Bustamento by the peo-
pie of Nicaragua came by way of return
for the friendly act of Salvador in the Co.
rinto affair.
The arrest of Bustamento while aboard
an American ship is said to be in direct
violation of International law, and the tur-
bu!ent little Central American republic may
be called to account for it's high-handed
action by the United States.
Capt. Johnston of the City of Sydney re-
fused to discuss the matter. saying that
he could not do so until he had first con-
suited his super.ors Bustamento was
found after much difficulty hiding under
the coal bunkers. Though he knew he was
going to his death when he left the steam
er he never uttered reproach. He declar
ed that he should remain Ezeta's friend
to the last.
The steamer company had no other re-
course.

Petitions Filed With the Commits
siOners to Let Trolley Poles Alone.
A number of the residents and property
owners along the line of the lexington and
Soldiers Home electric railroad are OPP
posed to present interference by the Com
missioners with the trolley wires. Two
lengthy petitions, bearing the names of
over hundred residents and property
owners, were presented to the Commits
sioners this afternoon, setting forth that
the signers, residents and property owners
on the line of the lexington and Soldiers
Home electric railway, speaking for a large
community, colleges, churches, hotels and
families, respectfully petition your honor
able body not to in terfere with the existing
system of propulsion of the cars of the
lexington and Soldiers Home Railway
Company on New York avenue until the
company has had an opportunity to de-
eide upon and substitute other
method of rapid transit through this route
to the heart of the city.
The disturbance of the present arrange
ment would seriously inconvenience our Of
fetal, business and social relations with the
city, and all of depending on the
continuance of these relations for our home
and living"
In signing the petition S. S. Daish & Son
say: 1--WE NEST respectfully urge above ac-
ton, as we have been to very large eX-
pense in building, etc, and a very large
proportion of our patrons come and go via
this, our only road"
Charles G. Lynch, in letter transmitting
the petition, says: In filing the inclosed
petition of residents business houses, prop
erty holders and others interested in the
maintenance of an efficient system of
transportation on the lexington and Sol
diers' Home electric railway, 1 desire to
state that in asking signatures. nearly all
of them he.ng affixed in my presence, I
found practically unanimous sentiment in
favor of the petition, and that from the
hearty offers of assistance in circulating it
or in personally urging its recommended
tons before your honorable body should
the occasion arise, and from the knowledge
that many who could not now be commu-
nicated with hold like views, I feel certain
that more than tnine-tenths of those direct
ly interested in this section would join in
the petition if time could be taken to bring
it to their attention.
P J. Garrigan, vice rector of the Catholic
University, calls attention to a former let
ter of his upon this subject, which he says
he hopes the Commissioners will consider
in connection with the petition which he
signed . l.

CONTRACTORS CONFER.
Probn bility of an Agreement Abou
the Cremation of Garbage.

Probability of an Agreement About
the Cremation of Garbage.
A conference was held today between the
garbage contractors and the representa-
tives of the several systems of cremation
for the purpose of signing the bonds of
indemnity This will be done, and tomor-
row, according to ar agreement made with
the Commissioners today by Contractor
Warffeld. the latter will appear before the
board of Commissioners and submit for
their approval the three systems of crema-
ton, namely, the Smith, Brown and Dixon.
AS the Commissioners have already ruled
against the last named, there is little doubt
they will approve the Smith and Brown
systems, and require the immediate cree
ton of them 1t is understood that the
Brown crematory will be erected on the
banks of Rock creek, where little opposi-
ton viii be met. The Smith system is to
go on the site recently occupied by the old
reduction plant. That is, of course, pro-
vided'the citizens Interested do not defeat
the proposition. They are not passive by
any means these days, but are working
with might and main to keep the crematory
out of South Capitol street.

What Rep Patterson Says Of the Cam
paign in the South.
He Is Thinking of Party Policy, Not
Candidates, Although He Mentions
Several Good Ones.

Representative Josiah Patterson of Ten

he felt confident that a majority of the
southern delegates to the democratic ma
tional convention would be in favor of
sound money, He said that he was net
thinking of candidates. and that the people
were thinking of party policy and not of
candidates. He had, he said, not considered
the question of a third term for Cleveland,
but that if it were not for the prejudice
against a third term Cleveland would be
an invincible candidate.
Sound Money Gaining Ground.
Il do not pretend to say that we have
yet won the battle for sound money" he
said. There has not yet been a general
victory; no one has surrendered, but we
are steadily gaining ground, and all the
territory that has been captured is now oc-
eupied by the sound money forces. 1 conf

Mckinley PLEADS FOR FORAhEH.
Opening the Republican Campaign in
Ohio.

Opening the Republican campaign HI
Ohio.
SPRINGFIEID Ohio September 1O.-The
republican campaign was opened here TO-
day. Senator Sherman, Gov. Mckinney anu
ex-Gov. Foraker spoke.
After calling upon Ohio republicans to
stand by their principles in triumph as
thew had in adversely, Gov. Mckinley pre-
scented an historical sketch, showing that
Ohio has established her right to be a re-
publican state. He spoke particularly or
the senatorial elections. He said:
From 1861 to 1869 the republicans had
two Senator'S Wade and Sherman. This
year. 1895, we are going to resume our
rightful place Mr.. Foraker will take the
seat of Mr.. Brice. Ohio republicans are
united firmly and resolutely on that propo-
sition. We intend to give Senator Sherman
a republican colleague. While the oemoc-
racy have not declared their preference
in the open,' 1t is we'll understood that Mt
Brice Is their candidate.
"The republicans have formally. officially
and in hearty good faith, in state conVen-
ton assembled, declared their preference
for Senator to be Jos. b. Foraker, ana the
choice of the convention will be ratified IN
November and he will be elected to sue
coed Mr. Brice.
.0The republicans are to be congratulated
that they have no rival candidates for the
United Stotes senatorship. We have no
contest among ourselves. Every contest Is
entirely with the democratic party; we
have but enc candidate and he enjoys the
great distinction of having the Endorsement
of the last republican state convention, an
Endorsement given without division or dis
sent unanimously and enthusiastically and
the distinction is one which. so far as l
can recollect Is exceptional in the history
of the republican party of Ohio.
II cannot enjoin upon the people of the
eT,+a zoo ctr mol L
ance of electing a republican legislature,
wbicl. shall elect a republican United
States Senator. There is nothing before us
this year at all to be compared in import
ance with our Legislative election. The
legislative ticket must have our especial
concern and command our undivided sup
port. In the present political divisions of
the Senate of the United States, which are
extremely close. a single Senator may de-

BALTIMORE DEMOCRATS.
They VIII Meet Tonight to IndOrse
and Condemn.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
BALTIMORE. Nd. September 1O.-Two
meetings of the Baltimore city democrats
will be held this evening. One is called
in the interest of Mr.. John F.. Hurst, the
German candidate for governor. and the
other will be composed of men who oppose
his nomination.
The friends of Mr.. Hurst comprise many
Of the best known business men of the
city, and their meeting will be held at the
Carrollton House They seriously
alarmed at the critical situation which con-
fronts the ticket. and they believe that the
chief motions OF salvation lie in the utmost
exertion on heir part, and steps toward
making house-to-house canvass of the
city in the interests of Mr.. Hurst and send
ing representatives into the counties to adj
vocate his cause will be discussed tonight.
The independent democratic meeting will
be held at the Rennert, and promises to be
largely attended
Invitations to be present have been gen.
orally circulated, and no democrat who has
expressed his disapprobation of the regular
ticket has been sighted in this regard.
While many republicans and an1-Gorman-
ties are pleased with the movement, there
is still a growing belief that it is instigated
by the ring, and that the leaders hope in
this way to draw off the vote of those
democrats, who, in default of such a move
rnent, would support Mr.. Lowndes
Senator German was expected in town
this morning. but instead of coming here
he went to Ellicott City, where he is hold
ing a conference with Mr.. Jos. Hunt and
other Howard county leaders. The Sena-
ltor Is said to he much worried over the
situation In his home county. and his visit
TO Eliicott City is supposed to be for the
purpose of Strengthening things out as far
as possible Tie Independent democrats of
Howard are openly Supporting the repub
lican ticket and much alarm is felt in
regular circles over the outlook.
