A Pastor Believes He'll is Only 1s Inches
Below San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 1S.-The Rev.
Westwood W. Case delivered sermon
at the Howard-Street Methodist church
last night fairly burning with sugges-.
ton. He tuned his voice to run the
gamut of the vice and crime of San
Francisco from the horrors of the Dur
rant case to the revealed crimes of the
past week against the infant daughters
of the poor. He'll, he said, was only IS
inches below the sidewalks of the city,
and he was equelly certain that the
young woman or old, who rode bicy-
Gle on the Sabbath, was on the road to
perdition. He appealed to the women
to assist in driving vice from off the
earth, and his vast congregation ap-
plauded as preachers are seldom ap-
plauded in San Francisco.

Fears Entertained of It's Capture by In
surgents.
BALTIMORE, Nov. IA telegram
has been received from Cuban sym.
pathizer in Key West which is highly
pleasing to the colony here. 1t not
only states that much anxiety prevails
among the officials at the Cuban cap
ital regarding the possible fate of de
Campos, whose headquarters are grad
ually being surrounded by the revolu-
tionists' forces, but fears are enter
tanned for Havana itself, and prepara-
tions are being hurried to strengthen
defences. The message reads as fol-
lows:
"KEY WEST, Nov. 1s.-Much alarm
exists in official circles in consequence
of the confirmation of rumor that
the chief of the insurgents, Maxine
Gomez, is now five hours distant from
the headquarters of Martinez de Cam
pos, near Santa Clara. The eldest son
of General Campos, accompanied by
an inspector of artillery, has today re-
connoitered on horseback the outskirts
of Havana, locating the strategic
points where are to be placed the new
batteries of heavy Krupp cannon which
will shortly arrive and will be employed
in defense of the citv.

Fatal Fire In New York.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Fire in the
six-story factory building at 9S Vinton
street today caused panic among the
200 people working there. One is
known to have perished and others
may have met similar fate.
The basement, in which the fire
started, was occupied as candle fac
tory, and the tallow caused the fire to
spread rapidly, cutting off egress by
the stairs. Several men jumped from
the roof and from windows to the top
of adjoining buildings. After the
building had been Quilted fremen be-
gan searching for bodies, and one was
found.
OF those who jumped, Meyer Lip
schitz is fatally injured. Joseph Lip.
schitz sustained internal injuries as
well as hurt of the back which may
result in death.

Land Scramble.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov. 16-A heavy
electric motor car containing between
twenty and thirty passengers went
through draw of the central viaduct
at 7:45 o'clock this evening and drop
ped 100 feet to the river below, causing
horror the like of which never oc-
Cured before. Every passenger in the
car was killed. Central viaduct is a
huge stilt bridge, 3,00Ofeet along, made
of iron. 1t connects the heights and
the prosperous residence sections on
both sides with the business center of
the city. Directly over the river is q
draw bridge on the pivot-swinging pat
tern, and is 1O1 feet above the surface
of the water.
The South Side street railway passes
over the bridge and on either side of
the draw there is safety switch which,
unless the conductor alights and holds
up the handle will send car into the
gully instead Of allowing it to go on the
draw.
The first reports from the scene of
the disaster seem to place the blame on
the conductor. They were to the effect
that the Inflated motor car approached
the draw just as q vessel was nearing it,
and:the attendants should have closed
the big iron gate and prepared to close
the draw as the car stopped and'the con-
ductor went forward to release the
switch. He must have been blinded
by the electric light, for an eyewitness
declared that although the gates were
closed and the draw in motion, the con-
ductor raised the switch handle. The
motor man applied the current and the
car shot forward and struck the gates
with crash. There was only mo-
ment's pause and then the heavy car
ground its way through the wreckage
and plunged over the brink into the
black abyss, amid the screams and
frantic struggles of passengers, who at
the first intimation of danger rushed
for the rear door. The car struck
the water with great splash and then
there was silence.
All the occupants of the car, with
the exception of a few who had man
aged to jump before the car. toppled
down, went down to certain death.
The car disappeared from sight as soon
rs it struck the water and every one of
ohe passengers was drowned.

Thriple Murder Probably Committed Near
Brownsville
BROWNSVILLE, Or. Nov.19.-This
afternoon about o'clock, at the R. S.
Templeton farm, three miles east of
Brownsville. John Montgomery, his
wife and D. B. McKercher were found
dead, having been murdered by un-
known persons.
Montgomery was found lying on his
back in the front yard, near picket
fence about 20 feet from the house,
with the top of his head blown off.
McKercher was found in the sitting
room, lying on his face, with shot in
the left side of the head, part of the
skull gone, and with Montgomery's
rife across his legs, where it had evil
IDENTIFY been placed. Mrs. Montgom-
cry was found in the diningroom, lying
on her face, shot in the back. All had
evidently been killed while fleeing
from the murderer or murderers.
No cause for the deed is known. Ex-
citement here is intense. No one but
the murdered people were known to be
on the premises at the time the tragedy
was committed

Dwelling Burned at Forest Grove.

FOREST GROVE, Nov. 17.--Mrs.E. c.
Benson's dwelling in this city was
burned last evening, about 500 o'clock.
1t is not known how the fire originated,
for Mrs. Benson had stepped to her
next door neighbours for a few minutes,
and no one was in the house. The
flames spread SO rapidly that nothing
was saved. There is no insurance, and
the loss, which represents years of a
woman's savings, falls heavily indeed.
The hook and ladder company and
citizens did valiant service in saving
j. A. Watrous' house, not over 40 feet
distant. A. E. Wilson entered the
burning house and was overcome by
the flames and badly burned, though
not seriously, before being rescued.

CONSTANTINOPLE,- Nov. 15.-It is
announced that the three prison Off
cials of Moosh, dismissed some time
a 20 upon the demand of the British
ambassador, owing to the maltreat-
ment of prisoners, have been rein
stated. The British charge d'affairs,
Hon. Michael Herbert, has demanded
of the porte that the three prison Off
cials be again dismissed.
The rioting at Sivas was attended by
great bloodshed, but order has been
partially restored, and the Turkish Of
ficials are protecting the foreigners
there. No change in the situation
is anticipated for some days.
Reports of conflict between an AL
banian regiment and Tripolitan regi-
ment at Yildi Kisosk, have not been
confirmed, although it is well known
that there has been bad blood between
guards at the palace ever since the
Tripoli regiment furnished the sentries
instead of the Albanians, as a result of
notes being left with different palace
officials, saying their lives were in dan
ger, and there was a plot to assassinate
the sultan.

SHIPMENTS OF GOLD.
Upwards of Three Millions Went Abroad
Last Week.


NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Gold ship
ments this week aggregated So, ,267 800.
They had no weakening influence upon
sterling exchange, and it is currently
believed that an intermittent outward
movement of precious metal will now
occur. The two large shippers this
week are known to have made their
arrangements reluctantly, but were
compelled to send the gold to fulfill
their mercantile obligations. The
street expects that at least as much
gold will be shipped next week.
The October statement of our for
eign trade, published today, shows
that while our exports increased TO

AURORA SKATING RINK
Will Not Be Opened TILL First
Glass Ice Is Formed.


Class Ice Is Formed.
Owing to the mild weather and the
peculiar lay of the grounds the Aurora
rink has not yet been opened, the
management deeming it best not to
open the gates until it could furnish to
the public first-class ice. The main
rink when completed will be 3O0X2l5
feet which surface will be used for
pleasure skating only. On the outside
of this rink, a ten-foot track will be
staked off to be used exclusively by
the "speeders." In front of the grand
stand will be the Polo rink, 170X150
feet, where polo and hockey will be
played during the season. The man
agement has made arrangements with
four polo clubs, composed of the ma
tional guard companies and also sew
eral other polo clubs in the city, where
by game will be in progress almost
every night in the week after the rink
opens. One night each week will be
given over to the Hockey club. an or
ganization recently completed, COM
prising about fifty members, from
whom teams will be selected for the
tournament. This space will also be
used for curling during the carnival.
On the Dale street side there has been
erected large warming room 24x1O0
feet, containing check rooms, lunch
counters and refreshment booths. This
apartment containing a separate room
for ladies, will be electric lighted, as
will the entire ice surface and grounds.
On st. Albans street the park will be
connected with the adjoining block,
where Fort Karnival is to be erected,
thus enabling pleasure-seekers to pass
from one attraction to the other with
the least inconvenience. Should the
weather permit, the rink will be form
ally opened by the Boston Carnival
club, during the present week.
