MRS. CoDY's BODY FOUND
Evidence Sufficient to Prove That She
Took Her Own Life.

TACOMA CWasht), March 2.-The
body of Mrs. A. B. Cody of Chicago,
who has been missing from the home of
her parents in this city since January
18th last, was found about noon in the
northern part of the city. An examina-
ton of the body disclosed a revolver
sound in the right breast. Three
chambers of her revolver were empty.
Mr.. Cody is in San Francisco, and has
been te1egraphed for.
The body was discovered by Mr..
Goodrich the father Of the unfortunate
lady, not fifty feet from a heavily trav
eled thoroughfare. A revolver lay be-
side the body, and has been identified
as the weapon purchased by Mrs. Cody
the day previous to her disappear
ance She had apparently knelt down
and shot herself through the heart,
having previously discharged two cart
ridges to familiarize herself with the
pistol. No inquest will be held, the
case being clearly one of suicide. The
corpse will be shipped to Naperville,
Illinois, as soon as Mr.. Cody returns
to Tacoma

ace, it is claimed, thar his views are
colored by Spanish representations, and,
also by merchants, commission men and
others whose personal interests will be
served by the putting down of the revo-
luton by Spain.
Mr.. Williams cannot be accused of
inattendance to duty. He is in his Of
fee from morning to night, but this
close application of duties to minor i'm
portance may have prevented his fully
realizing the state of affairs on the
island. Mr.. Williams is also well ad-
vanced in years, and dislikes incidents
which mar the quiet routine of office
work. His attitude has not satisfied
all of the American colony, and a petit
ton is now in circulation asking the
Government for his recall.
On top of this comes the rumor that
Mr.. Williams has sent his resignation
to Washington. Mr.. Springer, the Vice
Consul has been in the office over ten
years and is thoroughly familiar with
it's workings. Under ordinary circum-
stances he would be the most fitting
successor if Mr.. Williams is to go, but
in view of the semi diplomatic position
of the Consul General, and the difficult
the wisest course would seem to be that
a man of diplomatic experience and
strong executive ability be sent from
Washington.
The situation has reached an impor-
tant point, and the danger of the
strained relations with the United
States is so great that a man broad
enough in mind to realize the gravity
of the situation should represent the
United States here.
Gomez and Maceo are now in the
western part of Matanzas Province.
They are taking their wounded to a
place of safety, and are going where
their horses can rest and Craze and
their men rest after their fatiguing
campaign. AS they have left in Ha-
vana Province many bands of from fifty
tc 100 men each, and other bands to op-
crate in Pinar del Rio, Matanzas and
other provinces as before, it can hardly
be said that the two principal leaders Of
the rebellion are fleeing from or before
the Spanish armies. Gomez has dis
played wonderful ability as a leader,
and his present move is said to be a
part of a plan arranged before he left
Santa Clara for his march to the west.
The withdrawal from Havana Prov
ince of the main armies of Gomez and
Maceo will make it more difficult for
General Weyler to deal them an effec-
tive blow before the setting in of the
rainy season.
There are rumors here of the land
ing of an expedition in Pinar del Rio.
1t is supposed to have been sent from
the States by Collazo.'

STOCKTON, March "A serious
wreck occurred at the intersection of
Main and Sacramento streets at $50
o'clock this morning, resulting in the
injury of three trainmen and the wreck
ing of two engines Train No. 1Ol,
known as the Tracy freight, was pull
ing out in front of the passenger depot,
when a local switch engine going south
at rapid gait ran into it. Engineer
Bonney of the switch engine had just
passed over the switch, which was
closed. Coming back he did not see
that it had been opened for the freight
train and so went down the track at a
good speed. When he saw that he was
running on the advancing engine he
attempted to reverse, but it was too
late.
Fireman George H. James and Brake
man Harry Vizelich attempted to
jump and were caught between the
tender and the cab The noise of the
collision sounded like an explosion. 1t
was heard for blocks around and soon
hundreds of people flocked to the scene.
Every effort to extricate the injured
trainmen was without avail for nearly
a half-hour. Attempts to pull the ten
der from the cab were unavailing. Four
four-horse drays were attached to the
tender. but could not move it. Then an
engine was sent from the roundhouSe
and attached to the tender with
heavy chains. But the chains snapped
and it was seen that the men would
have to be extricated by other methods.
An attempt was made to saw off the
side of the cab against which James
was resting, and soon the saw struck
iron rods.
Then a heavy plank was secured to
pry off the side of the cab By this
time thousands had gathered to watch
the operation of the releasing of the
pinioned trainmen. Finally the side OF
the cab was pried off and James re-
leased The crowd cheered as he was
pulled from between the cab and the
tender The fireman was gritty to the
last He never -groaned but once, when
the chains snapped letting the tender
back closer on him.
All this time Vizelich was being
mashed between the cab and tender at
the other side. Attempts to pry them
apart were unsuccessful at first, but
finally after working half an hour he
was released. Like James, he never
murmured. He was carried to his home
near the railway track, where it was
found that his right leg was broken
four inches above the knee, the flesh of
the right knee mashed to jelly and the
flesh of the right thigh pinched off the
bones. He is probably injured inter
nally as well.
James is even more seriously hurt.
His right leg is broken in three places
once two and a half inches above the
knee, again three inches higher, and
again between that and the upper thigh.
He is also injured internally.
Amputation will probably follow in
both cases, and the men will probably
die.
Engineer Charles w. Pool of train No.
107 was knocked senseless, and his
head lacerated.
James lives at 1913 Williams street.
Oakland. Vizelich is Stockton boy.
Pool lives at Sacramento.
The accident was due to the careless
ness Of Engineer Bonney of the switch
engine in not seeing the open switch
He had just passed over it closed, and
when coming back did not know it had
been opened. Bonney is unhurt.

WIPED OUT BY FIRE.
Every Building But One in the Town
of Coleville Destroyed.

CARSON New; March 2.-During
the prevalence of a terrible wind and
snowstorm yesterday afternoon, the lit
tie village of Coleville, Cal, was COM
pletely wiped out by fire, every building
in the place except a small blacksmith
shop and one deserted dwelling being
destroyed. The villagers saved moth
ing excepting the clothing they wore at
the time of the conhagration. There
being no telegraphic communication
with the town details are meager, but
it is conceded that great hardship must
prevail on account of the severe
weather, which also prevents communi-
cation by conveyance. The property
loss is estimated at about $4,000, with
trifling insurance. Coleville is a small
mountain town in Antelope Valley, with
a population of a few hundred. 1t is
the center of supplies fol neighboring
rancherS and miners.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2.-The
Weather Bureau tonight issues the
following report: The map tonight
shows unusual weather conditions pre-
vailing over California and Nevada.
A storm is central over Northern Cali

Cured. Rain will probably fall to-
night and Tuesday over California,

parallel. Storm southeast signals are
flying along the entire coast of Cali
fornia. The indications for Northern
California are rain, continued to-mor-
row; temperature fresh to brisk; south
westerly winds.
The effect of the cold wave upon fruit
trees and crops may be judged by the
following reports received from differ
ent sections tonight:
Suisun-Several inches of snow fell
to-day and a heavy frost is expected to-
night Orchardists are busily engaged
in smudging their trees. hoping by this
means to prevent serious damage to
buds.
Santa Cruz-A heavy hailstorm this
evening did considerable damage to
fruit. trees. At GIenwood and Bowlder
Creek four inches of snow fell, and the
injury to peaches and prune blossoms
viii be great.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2-There
was a fall of snow in this city this
morning for the first time in ten years.
The fall was quite heavy while it con-
tinued, but the snow melted as fast as
it fell, and at the end of ten minutes
turned to cold rain. The last snow
storm occurred here during the winter of
1886 and 1887, when the ground was
covered to a depth of several inches.
