Mystery of Wheat Deal OF
Fairs Clearing Up
ADMISSION MADE BY ANGUS
The Multi. Millionaire Furnished the
Money
Disappearance of the Bookkecper of ncGlauiin
and One of His Books Cuts an
Important Figure

SAN FRANCISCO. May Nothing
has yet been heard of the whereabouts
of Bookkeeper Charles 5. smith, mployee
of the grain brokerage firm of McGlauflin
& Co., who disappeared last Sunday.
There is a suspicion that his disappear
ance is due to inquiries regarding the
Fair wheat deal.
James S. Ausng, Fairs confidential
man, has admitted that the dead mill
ionaire furnished McGlaufiin & Co. funds
with which to purchase the wheat now
stored in the Port Costa warehouses.
lie has stated, so it is said, that in some
instances McGlauflin & Co. presented
written orders signed by Fair. and in
otner instances they came with verbal
orders for money. When their verbal
orders were given Angus always went to
Fair and asked him if it was all right,
and upon receiving the reply that it was,
the money called for was paid over.
When the attorne Is for Mrs. Oelrichs
and Virginia Fair commenced their in
qulry as to how much of the eX-senator's
money had been invested in wheat Mr..
Angus made no objection to Mr.. Lloyd
looking over his books, but when it came
to comparing entries in the accounts of
Mr.. Angus with the accounts OF Nc
Glaufin q Co. there was mysterious dis
appearance of Bookkeeper Smith and an
account book of the year the big wheat
deal deal was being engineered disap-
peared with him.

MEXICO BEING SHAKEN UP
Old Coiima Is Splitting Fire and Much
Smoke
Earthquakes Also Threaten the Natives
anG There Is Great Terror Among the
PopuIace in the Republic

MANZANILLO, Colima, Mexico, May
1.-The glare from the eruption OF the
volcano Colima, over sixty miles in the
interior, is plainly seen at this port and
other points along the Pacific coast at
night. The country fer hundreds of miles
around the fiery mountain furnace is
lighted up with a wierd glare, which
makes it possible to read fine print for
many miles from the point OF disturb
ance.
The fires broke forth visibly above the
brink OF the volcano over a week ago, but
as the mountain is practically always in
a mild state of eruption no particular AT
tention was paid to the increased amount
of smoke and flame. Within the last two
days the disturbance has steadily in
creased, and now the inhabitants OF the
region are Thoroughly alarmed and are
preparing to flee t. the sea and other
places of refuge in case general eruption
occurs.
The earthquakes are short and sharp,
and from this it is feared they will ulti-
mately cause damage to the churches and
other tall buildings in this and other
neighborng states. The shocks thus far
have been felt here and at Colima Zapot-
Ian. Patzcur. Urapan. Guadalajara and
rumblings are heard at intervals during
the day and through the night and
masses are being said in all the churches
to avert the threatened calamity.
Thousands are focking to the confes'
sional to prepare themselves for anything
which may happen, and the priests are
kept busy day and night. The spirit OF
the moment is that if death comes it will
find the simple worshipers ready to die
at the altar in the act OF homage.
The volcanic fires have ignited some of
the forests around the base of the mount
ain and several contiagratons have en-
sued from this cause. 1t is feared that
some of the fine coffee haciendas within
radius of few miles have been de-
stroyed also. Ships coming in from Cali
fornia and other ports on the Pacnc re-
port seeing lights off to the south. which
were not at FIRST understood, and the ship
captains could not understand, either. the
presence of the dust which falls upon the
sea in places. Now that they are in
formed of the eruption of Colima the dust
mists are explained. and it is thought
that the Revillagigedo group of island
volcanoes may possibly have broken out
with old-time violence. No definite re-
ports have as yet been received from the
Revil!agigedos.

A Traitor in Cuba RiddIed With
Bullets
DEATH BEFORE THE WALL
Story of the Mans Work in Betraying
Rebels
How II Is Proposed to Make Idle Men in
the 9sIand Content - Public
Work Commenced

HAVANA, May 1.-Lieutenant Gallego,
who surrendered fifty Spanish soldiers to
the rebels. and who was afterward arrested
and TUNED over to the military authori-
ties lere, was, after trial by courtmartial.
sentenced to be shot.
This sentence was carried out today IN
the fortress of Cabana here.
Lieuteant Valentine Gallego should not
be confounded with Lieutenat Benjamin
Gallego of the Peninsular regiment, who
was recently tried by the courtmartlal
and shot at Santigo de Cuba for allowing
the rebels to surprise him in a saloon in
Juragua City.
Marshal de Campos has is sued pro-
clamation in which he says it is the first
time in the history OF his military life
that he has known Spanish officer to be
executed as coward.
The captain general. in order to give
work to the unemployed and thus pre-
vent ny discontented and idle persons
from joining with the rebels, has
ordered the commencement of number
of public works. which. it is hoped. will
result in material benefits TO the island
and to the laboring classes. Captain Cen
eral de Campos will act as captain gen.
eral.
NEW YORK, May "A special rom
Washington to a morning paper says:
A statement that Lieutenant Harra,
who commanded tho Conde de Venadito.
which fired upon the United States mer-
chairman Alhanca some weeks ago, has
been sent to Havana and placed on duty
in the Office of the marine communicate.
and that this designation IS intended to
he promotion. provokes the following
retort from Senior Dupuy de LONE, the
Spanish minister at Washington:
PRO motions in our navy 60 by strict
seniority. TO detail an officer from sea
to land duty means to lose an important
part OF his pay. l may say that, so far
as this gentleman is concerned. he has
received from Madrid repuke and not a
promotion.
The Venadito is not gunboat, as she
has been usually characterized. She is a
secondclass cruiser, sister ship to the
IEfanta Isabella. which was here at the
naval review two years ago. Owing TO
the temporary absence OF her commander,
Lieutenant Harra was in command.
NEW YORK, May 1.-Damon Williams.
United States consul at Havana, arrived
on the Ward line steamer Vigilanca from
Havana today. Mr.. Williams declined to
say anything regarding the report that he
was persona non grata to the Spanish au-
thorities.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla, May PAS
sengers on the steamer Olvette from
Havana tonight give on account OF
battle near Bayamo on Monday between
MaXimo Gomez, in command OF 2O0O in
surgents and 5000 Spanish troops COM
manded by General Saicedo. The Span
iards were repulsed with heavy losses,
while the Cuban loss was very small.

THE POLICY OF DECENCY

After the usual process of diplomacy an
assurance comes from Spain that an apol-
ogy will be offered for the Alliance affair
and that the Spanish captain will be duly
and formally tried for his ofsense. This
will satisfy everybody save perhaps the
jingoists who demanded an apology with
out investigation. In following the usual
lines of diplomacy the United States has
acted with dignity and accomplished its
ct.-Kansas City Star.
In the international incident referred
to by our contemporary the administra-
ton of President Cleveland was guided
by the same principles that have directed
its conduct in all the other relations or
dealings it has had with foreign govern
ments. No administration in the history
of the country, unless it be Secretary
Seward S. has encountered SO many diplo.
matte difficulties, and each and every
one them has been handled with dignity
and lofty craftsmanship that recalls the
days of Am erican statecraft previous to
the war; Mr.. Cleveland and his secretary
of state have pursued the only policy a
country can afford to have pursued, that
OF firmly standing for the rights of the
United States. and with frankness and
honesty recognizing those of other coun-
tries.
Only small proportion OF the people
define craftsmanship as meaning usurpa-
iton, bluster and braggadoco.

hands becoming discol ,rcd, their
tongues swollen and their stomachs
affected.
Among those now in dangerous con-
ditioa are Taylor Pacton. pastor of the
Methodist church, Miss Myrtle Wallace.
Miss Nora Hartwell, Mrs. William Stark
and Lizzie Liddell. Miss Liddell is dy-
ing tonight and some of the others may
succumb before morning. When the
symptoms of some of the victims became
dangerous local physicians were called
in. but despite their efforts the victims
grew steadily worse.
When the local physicians declared that
their charges were suffering from poison.
inquiry was made for the woman dentist
and it was discovered that she had fed.
The prosecuting attorney caused warrant
to be issued for her arrest and kilograms
for her apprehension have been sent in
all directions.

reaching effect not often consid-
cred. Handsomely adorned play
grounds of this sort set the pace for
the gardens and courts of private domi-
Giles. The owners of eligibly situated
properties CAPABLE OF improvement ad~
mire and emulate the skill and art dis
played in a generously -provided-for public
park. They proceed to beautify their own
properties and then Others follow in
their paths. Many of the most notable
garden and lawn effects of the chief cities
of the world owe their origin to the ex-
amples furnished by the parks and
squares that have been artistically devel-
oped.
The acquisition of land for head works
for water system will brook no delay if
the people of this city desire to act
wisely. The bulk of the citizens have
owning its water supply, and this is the
initial step. 1t cannot be taken too soon,
not only because delay means deferring
the attainment of the ultimate object,
the water supply. hut also because the
longer it is put off the more the property
to be bought will cost.
The need for a commodious public Ii.
brary and suitable central police station
is too evident to require urging. In fact
the citizens shou1d vote n straight ticket
and that ticket should be for the bonds.
