JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April ALEX
ander Simms, alias Britt Glenn, alias Jim
Charlie, negro, shot and killed young
colored boy named Napoleon Stucks Satur-
day night. The officers chased him about
two miles to barn in the eastern part OF
the city.
When Simms saw he was discovered he
opened fire with pistol at the officers,
who returned the fire. During the firing
Policeman Minor was shot in the breast
and killed almost instantly. Lieutenant
Minor, his brother, was shot in the left leg.
Two negroes who had Joined in chasing
Simms were shot in the hip, one fatally it
is thought.
Simms offered to give himself up if the
lieutenant would consent not to kill him.
This was agreed to and he gave up his re-
revolver and came down. A large crowd
gathered on the outside and wanted to
lynch him at once, but the officer hustled
his prisoner off to jail. As soon as the
affair became noised about large crowd
congregated at the jail and threats of
lynching were frequent. Finally it was
announced that Simms would be taken to
the county jail for safe-keeping, but in

THE CUP|CA At ASTORIA
Arrival of the Overdue British
Vessel and Joy of the Cap
tain'S Friends.
The Ship Was Out Two Hundred
and One Days and Had a Rough
Experience.

ASTORIA, Or, April THE long over
due British ship Cupica, with tin from
Liverpool for Astoria, arrived in at 1
o'clock this afternoon after voyage OF
201 days. The docks were lined with peo-
pie, and no sooner had the Cupica dropped
anchor than score of Captain Cassons
friends climbed over the side of the vessel
and congratulated him upon his safe ar
rival.
Captain Casson state that the vessel
was delayed by storms that drove her out
of her course, and by calms which lasted
for days at time. In the vicinity OF
Cape Horn 500 cases of tin were jettisoned
and more would have followed had they
not been compelled to batten down the
matches. Two sailors were injured by
being thrown against the bulwarks during
a storm. Captain Casson says that when
only two days out from Liverpool he
feared he would never reach his destina.

The arrival of the Cupica has placed the
canneries at some inconvenience, as they,
with one or two exceptions, had given the
vessel up for lost and had duplicated their
orders with American tin plate. The
Cupica has % 900 cases of tin on board.

SCORES CARDINAL GIBBONS
A Pittsburg Preachers Bitter
Attack on the Catholic
Prelate.
He Denounces the Cardinal for His
Remarks Concerning the Mob
at Savannah.

PITTSBURG, Pa. April Rev. J. T.
McCrary, pastor of the Third U. P. Church,
to-day delivered scathing attack on Car
dinal Gibbons and his supposed jdstifica-
ton of the mob in Savannah. Rev. Mr..
McCrary is q man of extreme views and is
a supporter of the blue laws. He was
president of the Law and Order Society
and directs the war against the Sunday
papers. He quoted from the remarks OF
Cardinal Gibbons on the work of the mob
and then said:
"The Cardinal protests earnestly against
his church being held responsible for the
Spanish inquisition, vet we submit that it
was more out of harmony with the senti-
ment of the sixteenth century than the
conduct of the mob with the closing years
of the nineteenth.
HE excuses and encourages violence.
When the head of the church speaks of an
offense as serious as the riot at Savannah
anything short of the sternest, most un-
equivocal condemnation of it will be en-
couragement. He put Christianity to
shame before the world. He claims to
represent the largest body of Christians in
the world, and yet has only soft words for
men who would have murdered if they
had not been restrained by bayonets.
"The Cardinal does not represent Chris
tianity. He is speaking for system that
cannot bear the light, and he would en-
courage the suppression of truth though
that require the silencing forever of the
clearest voices that ever rung out on this
western world"

HOW LINES WILL BE RUN.
Chief Engineer Storey Will
Outline the Plans for His
Assistants.
SELECTION OF THE BEST ROUTE.
Subscriptions From the Working
Glasses and Farmers Are Be-
ginning to Come In.

STOCKTON, CAL, April THE survey
ing party of the San Francisco and San
| Joaquin Valley Railway arrived by steamer
this morning. There are twelve men in
the party under the direction of Assistant
Engineer John A. Graham.
Mr.. Graham owns a large ranch in this
county, near Woodbridge, and spent most
of the day there. When seen tonight he
said that Chief Engineer Storey would be
here tomorrow to personally direct some
of the work OF laying the lines for the
road.
Tomorrow morning the first work will
be commenced on the point of land be-
tween Stockton and Mormon Channel,
when the lines will be run on Weber ave.
nue. and thence around to Tule street The
surveys in the city will take at least week
and half to complete and then the lines
will be run from the city limits to the
Stanislaus River.
Engineer Graham said that it had not
been definitely settled at just what point
on the river and through what lands the
surveys would be made, as the question of
bridging the Stanislaus would cut figure,
and this point had not been decided upon,
Engineer Storey while here will collect the
necessary information to determine just
where the lines will be run after leaving
Stockton.
Graham stated that preliminary lines
out of the city would be run at once, but
that they might be changed if better
route is suggested to the management of
the roads.
Subscriptions for the road from the
poorer people and the working classes are
coming in rapidly and one collector raised
$4,000 yesterday in small sums. The people
are more enthusiastic now than they have
been at any time in the history of the
movement,

in United States Courts.
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa, April THE
Griswold bank-robbers will be tried by the
United States court on the charge of steal
ing 5000 in stamps. 1t has been suspected
for some time that the Government would
ultimately try the two men now in Gus
tody, for its case is much stronger than
the charge preferred against them in the
State courts of assaulting Deputy Sheriff
Nick O. Brien.
There has been some uncertainty as to
who fired the shots, but there is not the
slightest uncertainty of all three of the
men being concerned in the robbery of the
bank.
Smith and Wilson were brought into the
courtroom yesterday afternoon to be ar
raigned. Their best friends would hardly
have known them as they sat with their
wrists bound together with handouts.
Each man had let his beard grow. If

WATCHING THE WIHLBERG.

Mexican Auth critics Suspect That the
Schooner Is Up to Mischief.
SAN DIEGO, CAL, April News has
been. received from passengers on the
steamer Pacheco, arriving from Lower
California, that the schooner H. C. Wahl-
berg, held for some weeks here for sus-
pected carrying of contraband war ma
terial TO Hawaiian rebels, has been seen
lowering off Cape Colnett and that Cap
tain Matthew Martin and his crew have
been ashore several times.
After the schooner was liberated she
cleared for the lower coast on guano ex-
pedition, but Charles Hartwick, one of the
crew, said no attempt was made to get
guano and the skipper was in no hurry to
find any. He intimated to a friend that
the schooner was in the more profitable
business of smuggling contraband goods
into Mexican territory.
1t is believed here that the schooner may
be making Colnett headquarters for ship
ping another cargo of arms for Hawaii,
and it is known that freight shipments to
Lower California are narrowly watched
The Wahlberg is not expected to return
here, and it is believed she will make run
to British Columbia to change her flag.
The Mexican authorities suspected the
Wahlberg from the first, and close watch
is being kept on her movements to detect
smuggling operations.

BRITISH CoNsUL'S VIEW.
He Does Not Think That His
Government Can Intervene
in the Matter.
THE LAW MUST TAKEITs COURSE
A Request May Be Made Asking
Mexican Officials to Grant as
Speedy Trial as Possible.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, April Tt was
learned to-day that considerable cabling
had been done in the case of Seymour
Jackson, cashier of Godbe G. Co.. Bank at
Ensenada, who was arrested some days
ago and charged with the robbery of $4,000
from the bank on March 20. The same
night $4,000 gold brick was stolen from
NJ. Riverol's office, few blocks distant.
Jackson is British citizen. and, upon
learning of his arrest, the British Vice
Consul of this city, Major Allen, wired to
learn the charge against him, the amount
of bail required, and also requesting that
the accused be speedily admitted to trial.
No answer was received from the first dis
patch, which was sent to Godbe, the Ameri-
can Consul at Ensenada. Another was
sent, and Godbe advised that application
be made to the authorities direct. This
was done, but no reply was received. Then,
it is understood, Major Allen notified his
were received, but their tenor could not be
learned.
Mr.. Allen, when questioned regarding
the matter, said he did not think the Brit
ish Government would take any steps in
the affair, as Jackson is simply being held
for examination and there was nothing to
show that he was not receiving fair treat
ment. jackson, the Consul said, COM
planned that he was being held in an un-
healthy jail, without the privilege of bail.
Major Allen held that bail should be ac-
corded, but he was not familiar with Mexi-
can law, and if the law did not class the
charge against Jackson as bailable, he did
not see how assistance could be given. No
special stress could be laid upon the un-
healthfulness of the Jail, as that matter
rested entirely with the Mexican authori-
ties, and the only thing that could be done
would be to ask for as speedy trial as pos
sible. This, added the Consul, would be
beyond doubt the voluntary course of the
authorities.
Pratt and CARAT, charged with the rob-
berry of gold bar, are no longer held in
solitary confinement, but are allowed to
converse with friends, though still pris-
oners. Investigation into the case con-
tinues with considerable vigor, but if the
gold or evidence to convict has been found
the fact is carefully guarded.

The Daughter of a Pullman Vtce-Pres-
ident Makes Her Debut.
MEMPHIS, TENN, April Miss Flor
ence Lillian Wickes, youngest daughter of
the vice-president of the Pullman Palace
Car Company of Chicago, made her debut
on the professional stage last evening at
the Lyceum Theater, appearing in ''The
Sign of the Cross with the company of
Wilson Barrett.
"I can see nothing in connection with
this move of Miss Wickes which should
particularly interest the public" said Mr..
Barrett this afternoon. lit came about
solely through the instrumentality of the
late theatrical manager, John W. Norton,
who was my friend, and who was killed in
disastrous railroad wreck some weeks
ago. He had requested me to give certain
proteges of his trials and Miss Wickes was
among the number.
81 had occasion thereupon to judge of
her talent, and found her to possess un-
mistakable ability as an actress, and l am
glad to name her with my company. She
has great talent and have no doubt as to
her future brilliant success as an actress.
At present, of course, she plays only the
junior parts"

CAR-SEALER'S DISCOVERY
Finds an Armed Man in Car
Who Answers Bandit Bra
dy's Description.
SEARCHING THE CAPITAL CITY
Officers Are Hunting for the Stran-
ger With the Revolvers Who
Has Again Disappeared.

lISACRAMENTO, CAL, April THE
murderer of Sheriff Bogard made another
abortive attempt to escape from Sacra-
mento yesterday afternoon, but was
foiled in his design by the vigilance of a
car-sealer in the upper railroad yard.
Shortly after the arrival of the overland
freight train that arrives in Sacramento at
A P. NJ, coming by way of Lodi, one of the
car sealers, whose duty it is to inspect the
doors and seals of the various freight cars,
noticed that the tin seal of one of the cars
was broken. He Immediately threw open
the door and as he did so he was con-
fronted by heavily built man, about feet
inches in height, who sprang from the
interior of the car to the ground and with
a muttered explanation that he had been
locked in the car alone by mistake, walked
rapidly i'll the direction of Twelfth street.
AS soon as the astonished car-sealer
could recover his presence of mind, he gave
the alarm, but before the detectives and
Sheriff's Offices could be notified, all traces
of the individual was lost.
The man was dressed in blue overalls,
light coat, small black derby hat and had a
cartridge-belt filed with shells around his
waist, with two larger revolvers thrust be-
tween the belt and his person. 1t is now
believed by local officers that the clew re-
ceived by Sheriff Griffin of Yolo County
yesterday stating that Sheriff Bogards s
murderer would endeavor to leave this
locality by way of Davisville, was given for
the purpose of drawing their attention in
that direction, while the real offender es-
capped over the mountains.
Another theory which has been ad-
vanced is that the man made his way at
night over the county road on his bicycle
to lone station where he abandoned his
vehicle, broke the seal on the car door, and
secreted himself in the interior, thinking
in this way to pass through Sacramento
without detection. CoBsiderabfe excite
ment exists in the city over the discovery,
and the officers are putting forth every en-
deavor to obtain trace of him, but owing
their silence upon the subj ect it is i'm
possible to ascertain what success they are
meeting with. In the meantime every
portion of the city is being searched.

port of the board of inspection was to the
effect, however, that the Monterey was in
good order and fit in all respects for an ex-
tended cruise, and receipt of this report
was followed by orders from the Navy De-
partment to send the vessel to Peru.
1t is not expected by the Secretary of the
Navy that the Monterey will leave the
coast, yet contingencies may arise by the
time she reaches Callao so that orders may
be sent to her commander, Captain Francis
J. Higginson. to proceed to New York via
the Straits of Magellan. This would give
ample opportunity to test the vessels sea-
going qualities.
The Olympia, on her return from Santa
Barbara, where she has gone to remain
during the flower festival, and incidentally
to have various tests made of her steaming
capacities and battery qualities, may be
ordered to Honolulu to relieve the Phila-
delphia, and the flag of Admiral Beardsley
may be hoisted at her peak.
William O'Meara, the well-known mail
carrier at the Naval Hospital during the
past eight months, will leave for Washing
ton Monday to obtain his discharge. He
expects to assume duty in the customs
service.
Lieutenant Thomas Snowden, detached
from the Monterey, is on temporary duty
on the Bennington.
Lieutenant Waldemar d. Rose, first watch
officer on the Olympia who has been quite
sick during the past three weeks, reported
for duty Saturday.
Past Assistant Engineer Emil Thesis,
detached from the Monterey, is still at the
hospital under treatment for injuries re-
ceived when the feed-pipe burst in the
monitors boiler-room.
Lieutenant John E. Gam has been
granted three months leave of absence.
Pay Inspector w. w. Woodruff, who
has but recently passed a successful ex-
animation from the grade of paymaster to
the above rank and title, will not came out
to the navy-yard to assume duty as gen.
eral storekeeper before the LIST of May.
Lieutenant Frederick Singer. who is to
come out from Washington to do duty on
the coast, was here some years ago as ex-
ecutive of the Independence.
