DEATH OF WILLIAM SMITH.
A Character Well known Along Shore
ard In the First Ward.

William B. Smith was found dead in
his room at IS Park street by Benjamin
Franklin and Michael Mccarthy about 8
o'clock last evening.
Smith was about rs years old, and had
spent the greater part of his life in
very reserved way, and has been known
as a very close-fisted person.
He has lived alone where he was found
for nearly twenty years, and has always
paid two months rent in advance, and
those who know him say that 1t was
nothing strange II he was not seen for
number of days at time. The young
men mentioned, who reside in the same
house. had not seen anything of the old
man for nearly two weeks and they came
to the conclusion that some mishap had
befallen him, so they got upon roof OF
a shed, from which they could look into
his room, and there they saw the old man
sitting In his chair, apparently dead.
Officer Colwell was called and be went to
the room and burst open the door. The
odor was more than he could stand. The
officer notified Medical Examiner Palmer,
who, upon examination, said the man had
been dead dozen days or more and was
in a very advanced stage of decomposi-
tion. The body was taken to the morgue,
and If it is not called for before evening
by friends it will be buried at the ex-
pense of the city.
Smith was at one time well known in
the city, his father being carpenter, and
resided on James street, where he owned
considerable real estate. II was disposed
of some time ago by the deceased. He
will be remembered by the members OF
the old fire company, Pioneer, he having
been connected with that company for
many years. He was very quiet person
and spent little or no money. In fact he
seemed to have but little cash at
any one time. 1t is said that he was con-
nected with the Sprauges when they were
in their prime
Among the old mans effects were found
several letters addressed 70 parties in
Kingston and other places in the State.
There was also found a barrel of crackers,
which seemed to be about all of the food
that there was in the house. There was
also lot of old coins found upon table,
which showed that the old man had been
toying with them at the time OF his death.
cold Bill" was very well known along
shore and to the residents of the First
Ward.

The BONDS WERE STOLEN.
Santa Cruz Refuses to Pay and Suit is
Brought.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 17.--H. Waite OF
Massachusetts, has brought suit against
the city OF Santa Cruz in the United States
District Court to secure the payment of
go, ESQ in bonds which fell due this year.
The city refuses to pay the alleged in
debtedness on the ground that the bonds
were practically stolen. A year ago the
city desired TO refund s3ao, 200 In out
standing bonds for the purpose of secur-
ing more time, and to this end the new
bonds were placed in the possession of
Walter Stanton, who gave a bond for
their return executed by the American
Debenture Company of Chicago.
I he American Debenture Company failed
in August, 1894, and Stanton shortly after
ward went into insolvency, having first
hypothecated the Santa Cruz bonds on his
private accounts instead of using them
for taking up the old bonds, which he
agreed TO do. This suit will determine the
validity of over 1850, 600 of like bonds, all
of which are held by innocent purchasers,
who received them from the custodian
appointed by the city of Santa Cruz.

THE HOPE OF AMERICA.
Defender and Colonia Sailed TOR
Larchmont This Morning.
Arrival of the New Boom and Gaff.
The Boom 40 Feet Long.

BRISTOL, X. l., July 17.--At 8 o'clock
this morning, Defender and Colonia were
towed down the harbor by the tug Hattie
Palmer, their destination being Larch-
mont, n. ", the summer home of Mr..
{. Oliver Iselin, where Defender will be
tuned up for the races on Saturday and
Monday. Defender Is complete in every
detail, except the berths for her grew,
and these will be finished in daS or
two. Captain Nat Herreshon die not sail
on Defender, but will leave for Larch-
mont by rail this afternoon. Captain Had
was in charge of the yacht with half Of
the Defender crew, the rest OF the crew
being aboard of the Colonia.
The early hour of the start was known
by few and only small group OF spec
tators saw the hope of America as she
was towed outside. 1t was the intention
in tow, as the weather was very thick
and the breeze light. An hour after the
yachts started there arrived from Boston,
by train, a new gat and boom for the
Defender, which will be placed on her
after she returns from Larchmont, prob
ably the latter part of next week. The
boom is l10 feet long, six feet longer than
the one she now carries, and the gaff, 20
feet in length, Is solid. 1t was said that
Defender would carry hollow gaf. The
gaff is four feet longer than the one
Defender now carries, and with the addi-
tlon OF the new set or sails being pre-
pared, ii Is calculated that the speed of
the yacht will be greatly increased. Cap.
tain Herreshoff will sail the Defender in
the races of New York.
NEWPORT, July 1.-THE yachts De-
fender and Colonia, in tow of the tug
Hattie Palmer, arrived from Bristol at
s O'Clock this morning, and dropped
anchor off the torpedo station.
The weather was foggy and light rain
was falling. Captain Half states that he
did not expect to start for Larchmont
until late this afternoon.
After the races on Saturday and Mon
day next off Sandy Hook, the Defender
will return to Bristol and receive her new
main boom and gaff which arrived in
Bristol this morning by the freight train.
As reported some time ago by THE News.
the main boom is larger and so is the gaff,
showing conclusively that the owners are
perfectly satisfied with the boat. The
main boom is solid and is OF Oregon pine.

Struggled Over the Border
in Sleeping Cars.
Railroad Officials Verified a Rumor
by thorough Search.
The Conductor and Porter of the
Train Arrested.

DETROIT, Mich, July 17.--For long
time past the customs officials have sus-
pected that Chinese were being snug
gled across the border from Canada In
sleeping cars The suspicion was verified
late last night when some important
arrests were made on a Wagner sleeping
car, which had just crossed tue river
from the Grand Trunk Railroad, and was
being switched to the Wabash road. Di-
vision Superintendent Chamber
lain of the Wagner Company
entered the car accompanied by
special treasury agent Wood and in
spector Carney. The conductor, Freder-
ick r. Lincoln of Buffalo, and porter
Charles McLan of Chicago, were obliged
to permit the officers to inspect the berths,
although they protested that there was a
woman in the stateroom. In this COM
partment were found four Chinese,
with Herbert johnson of Windsor. John
son, the conductor and the porter were
arrested and with the Chinese went TO
jail In default OF $1,000 bail each, required

CARLOS GOT THERE.
After Many Trials His Brow Has Re-
sumed Sweating i'm Pontiac.


Mr.. Carlos Skoglund, Scandinavian,
arrived in Pontiac, r. l., this morning,
and has gone to work. There is nothing
unusual in that in itself Carlos has
always worked and he has no social or
political standing which would warrant
any publicity of the fact that he has now
Job i'm Pontiac. But he had trouble
getting it. Carlos was in Lincoln,
Nebraska, working, when fellow emf
grant wrote and told him that he had a
better job for him in Pontiac, but the
recipient of the letter didn't notice the
postmark, SO went TO Pontiac, Illinois,
where he spent a week in looking for his
job and his friend, of course without sue
cess. Then I'm some way he learned OF
Pontiac Rhode Island, and started East.
He reached New York city without
mishap and while waiting for a sound
boat he met a bad man who seemed TO be
good. Why tell the rest? Twas the old,
old tale. Carlos gave his new friend 80
of hard earned money for a crisp 200 bill
that was made in some back parlOr OF
New York apartment house late at night.
Discovery quickly followed that Is,
discovery Of the market value of the bill,
and then came the chase.
Some one told Carlos to keep his eyes
open, for the friend would undoubtedly
stay around to get the GO cents in change
which he had left and Carlos did. He
walked all over New York, carrying with
him his bundle done up i'm a red hand
kerchief, so the other fellow could see
him two blocks OFF, and hasten to him
and make atonement But that didn't
happen.
The Scandinavian told n steamboat
captain that some one had stolen kortam
and everything from him aud he was
brought into New England without price,
and today, as above stated, he is working
at Pontiac

favor of the city in its case against the
water front company, otherwise the
Southern Pacific Railroad, involving the
title to IL miles OF water front, valued at
many millions OF dollars, which had

city cannot take possession of the wharves
built by the railroad company without
paying for the improvements.
The case Is OF the utmost Importance

ments, the latter refusing to do anything
on account of suits pen ding or threatened
