THE MESSAGE.
In his message accompanying the veto
of the general deficiency bill, President
Cleveland said, in defending the exer-
else of the veto power:
''The unpleasant incidents which ac-
company the power would tempt its
avoidance If such a course did not in
volve an abandonment of constitutional
duty and assent to legislation for which
the executive is not willing to share the
responsibility.
He continues This bill is In many of
its features far removed from a legiti-

number OF appropriations which seem
to be exceedingly questionable. Without

A BOLD ROBBERY
Chicago RascaIs Hold Up PuIiy Two Hundred

CHICAGO. June 6.-The gang Of des-
peradoes who have been the terror Of the
West Side for the last two months COM
mitted another bold robbery tonight,
holding up store full of people at 8
o'clock in the evening and escaping with
$500 in cash. The store was the general
merchandise establishment at the cor

1t does large business and is generally
crowded on Saturday. When three young
men entered the place at about oNDck
no particular attention was paid to
them. Two Of them made their way to
the desk of the cashier and each pro-
duced revolvers, which they pointed at
the cashiers face. The cashier is q
young lady. They demanded all the
money she had. She refused to pass out
the money, and while threatening to
kill her If she screamed, keeping his re-
volver leveled at the girls head, the
other grabbed all the money he could lay
his hands on, pushed it into bag and
they started toward the door. Many
people who had witnessed the robbery
made motion as though to stop them,
but they kept the crowd back by threat
ening them with their revolvers, and as
they neared the door the third man turn

1t May Not Do Difficult for the Democratic

Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
WASHINGTON, June s.-As a sample
Of the expression which the suggestion
Of Senator Whites name for first place
on the Democratic national ticket is
eliciting from the great newspapers Of
the east, the following from a recent
issue of the st. Louis Republic may be
of interest to your readers. The Re-
public says:
Among the presidential possibilities
frequently mentioned is Senator Stephen
M. White of California. Mr.. White Is
an ardent advocate of free coinage Of
silver at 16 to l and is man of very
great force and intellectual ability. He
Is one of the eminent lawyers of the SEN
ate, and during his career in that body
has taken an active part in all the great
questions Of legislation that have pre-
sented themselves He has a command
ing position in the senate, having .
membership on the two powerful COM
mittees of finance and commerce.
There seems to be no doubt that Sem
dIOT w WIIle Will nave Tie earliest sup
port Of his own state in the convention,
and that the electoral vote of California
can be relied upon If he is the nominee.
The Californians are booming Senator
White with a good deal Of energy and
western people generally take very
kindly to the suggestion Of his name.
Senator White will be remembered in
ST. Louis as the temporary chairman
Of the Democratic national convention
of 1885,"
While the Republic has a favorite
candidate of its own in the person Of
Bland, of silver fame, 1t evidently has q.
high opinion Of the California senator.
A notable feature is the numerous no.
notices which have been published by
various papers regardingSenatorWh
possible candidacy The universally fav-
orable comments which they have made
upon that gentleman may be taken as
pretty sure indication of his widely ex-
| tended popularity, and indicates that.
after the numerous favorite sons who
will be named for president in the Chi
cago convention have been sufficiently
complimented by the vote of their par
ticular states, it may not be difficult to
find In the Californian man upon
whom all can agree.

JAPANESE COMMISSIONERS
Have Not Yet Placed Their Contracts
for Warships
Eastern and English Navy Yards VIII Be
Examlned-The Union Iron Works
II Confident

SAN FRANCISCO, June 6.-Irving M.
Scott does not know of the arrival of the
Japanese commissioners to make con-
tracts for warShips and he does not ex-
pect them in this city for some time. 1t
is largely due to Mr. Scott's recent visit
to Japan that the government of that
country has decided to contract for two
warshipS to be built in American yards.
He believes, however, that the commits
sionerS will come by way of Vancouver
and from that palce will go east to ex-
anime the Atlantic coast yards and ar
NOR plants. After getting prices there,
Mr.. Scott thinks they viii return by way
OF San francisco. They have not yet
arrived in Vancouver.

Scott, Il had conversation with one

wered readily, Yes, England builds good
ships, but America builds better"
How do you make that out he
asked, and | told him America makes the
best armor plate. Our Harveyized
nickel plate is the best in the world, and
he agreed with me on that. 1 went on
to say that we make the best shafts
That's true he assented. We have
set of your shafts in the navy yard and
they are the best we ever had Then |

generally were of a higher grade than
those used in England.
But he objected, you have not the
skill and scientific knowledge of ship
building that they have in England 1

works, l told him, we had four men who
could design ship of any class from the
keel up, and we were bringing up half
dozen more of our men to the business.
but the prices he went on. I have
understood that everything costs so
much more in America than in England.
I explained to him that while this had
been true in times past, it was no longer
the case. / undertook to duplicate the
two men, of-war then building for Japan
in England at the price to be paid for
them.
1--WE will build them,' I said, from
your plans, from English plans or our
own. as you may desire.
"Then I pointed out to him that as
suming prices and work to be equal,
they could make money by having their
ships built in San Francisco, because
they would save voyage of 900 miles
or so from England, which is no small
item.

and they were able to verify for them
selves the truth of what / told them.
What said had it's effect. and they have

tracts in America"

AN ARMENIAN MASSACRE
A Whole Family Shot to Death Near
Fresno
There 10 Evidence Indicating . Conspiracy Of
Russians to Rid Themselves Of .
Bad Neighbor

FRESNO, Cal, June 6.-The bodies Of
Steven Shamarian, aged 55; his son Ben
jamin, aged ~. and daughter, Queen,
aged 80, Armenians, were found five
miles from Fresno this morning, all hav-
ing been shot in the back Of the head.
The bodies were found about two
miles from the home. The murder is
still shrouded in mystery, although the
officers are in possession of clewS that
they believe will lead to the perpetrator
of the crime.
At the coroners inquest today it was
developed that trouble was expected be-
tween these Armenians and some Rus
sian families.
1t was stated that Benjamin Sham
arian, who was 19 years old, had been
guilty of most serious crime against
two young Russian girls who were mere
children, and their parents had appealed
to the court to punish him, but it was
found that there was not sufficient evil
dence and no warrant was issued.
Mrs. Brandenburg. mother of one Of
the injured girls, testified they had come
to the conclusion that it was no use try
ing to get justice in law and the neigh
bors had talked among themselves that
the young man should be whipped and
made to behave himself. This was as
nearly as direct evidence went that there
was conspiracy among the Russians of
that vicinity to take revenge on young
Is a strong belief that in this is key to
the murder
There is no explanation of why the
father and sister were murdered also,
nor is there any reason known why the
whole family was In that vineyard, two
miles from home, at such a late hour at
night They must have been decoyed on
some pretext.
The manner in which the shots were
fired and in which the bodies were found
indicate that the young man was shot
first and that the others started to run
and were killed within fifty yards. The
boys clothes were powder burned
where the bullet entered the back of his
neck. The old man was shot in the face
which was badly powder burned. His
hand was also burned as If he was hold
ing it to his face when shot.
Some Chinese who have camp about
300 yards distant were awakened some
time in the night by the shooting and
screams. They did not Investigate, but
without dollbt this was the time when
the murder was committed.
The coroner's inquest will be completed
next Thursday.
The young Armenian, Daniel Sham
arian, nephew Of the murdered man,
who was arrested this morning on sus-
pician, has been liberated, but will be
kept under surveillance.
