THE SAN PEDRO EXPLOSION
Board of Trustees Take Prompt Action
in the Matter
Declared Uncalled For and Unwarranted.
Injured Man Doing Nicely

SAN PEDRO, Jan. 1.-THE board of
trustees held special meeting last night,
called for the purpose of taking steps to
find out the perpetrators of the recent dy-
Mantle explosion here. They have offered
reward of $3.50 for any information that
will lead up 10 the arrest of the party or
parties responsible for this fiendish at
tempt to destroy life. The people here are
very indignant over the appearance Of the
exaggerated report as it appeared in this
mornings Times insinuating that this dia-
bolical crime was perpetrated by the Coast
Seamen's union. Had the reporter who
caused that ridiculous article to appear in
the Times been here and heard the differ
ent comments as to who might have been
the perpetrators of this diabolcal crime he
could scarcely have been in his sane mind
to accuse the sailors union of this affair.
The imputation was uncalled for and un-
warranted, as there is not the least shadow
of evidence to connect the seamen's union
with this terrible affair.
The writer of this article has had many
callers today, asking him 10 repel the in
situations of the TirOes against the sea-
mems union in this matter, through the
columns of THE HERALD. The editorial in
the Times also casts reflections upon our
fair and peaceable city as being in dis
graceful and lawless condition for some
time past. This is utterly wrong, for our
township officers have hardly anything
at all to do, owing to the supremacy
of peace here.
The affair is bad enough as it is without
making it appear worse, just for the sake
of having faring head lines of sensational
character such as appeared in the Times of
Sunday. Our people, although not entirely
over the excitement of the affair, are pur-
suing the even tenor of their way, and the
people commend The action taken by the
board of trustees very highly.
Mr.. Barca, the injured man, is still con-
fined to his bed, but is doing very nicely
AS vet there has been no clew discovered
as to the perpetrators of the crime, but the
officers are working diligently, and the
criminal or criminals may be captured ere
long.

would therefore be very foolish for us to
move to San Jose at this time. Another
reason is the difference in climate. AT
Coronado the average temperature has
been in the eighties ever since we have
been there, so that better conditions for
record-breaking could be obtained. We
shall, of course, visit San Jose with the
team, but it will not be until later in the

1t was stated yesterday upon good au-

ATcHIsoN, Kas., Jan. 12.-An Atchison,
Topeka and Santa Fe freight train was in
charge of Sheriff Larkil of Atchison
county for few hours last night. The
company refused to pay its 1895 taxes as
sessed by Atchison county, or at least that
portion levied for the new court house and
Atchison street purposes, claiming such
leves were excessive and illegal. Late
yesterday afternoon County Treasurer Nc
CulIin turned the collection of the Santa
Fe's taxes, about $1,000 in all, over to
Sheriff Larkin. Yesterday was Larkin's
last day in office and he wanted the fee
and went to work to earn il. He learned
of freight train that would reach the

ment of the road at Topeka telegraphed
Larkin that the company would pay the
taxes under protest within five days. This
was sufficient and he released the train. 1t

STURGEON BAY, Wis, Jan. 12.-Fire in

this morning came nearly resulting in g

the fsmily and the domestic were badly
burned and one severely cut with glass.
Mrs. Keogh was i'll, and the shock and

her death.
Mr.. Keogh saved four children by heroic
dashes through the flames. Upstairs were
two daughters; when awakened, the down.
stairs part of the house was ablaze; but
one of them rushed down and out of doors,
receiving only slight injuries. The other
feared TO follow, and broke the window to
cali for help. By this time 10 young men
outside formed human ladder by stand
ing on each others shoulders and were
enabled to rescue the distracted girl, who
was badly cut about the body in getting
out, being clad only in her night-dress.

OF THE

FOR ST. CESOIX
Confirmation Of Meeting Of Draft on Bureau
Loan
SIT. CESOIX

The Acting Vicegoosrnor introduced the
Drafts and said, the Draft is not a stranger
to the Council, as 1t is similar to the one
that was adopted last year; therefore it
would not be necessary for him to give any
further explanations on il, the Members
being fully acquainted with the contents and
purport. 1t might, however, be interesting
to know how the Ordinance adopted last
year on this matter had worked, and he
would therefore beg to state, that there were
5 Estates or 5 different planters who had
applied for and received bureau loans, repre-
senting he aggregate sum Of $3.50 this
amount has been paid back, together with
interest Sl4%.7l, which, Of course, accrues to
the lmmigratihifunl. He had reason to
believe that the same 5, or at least 4 Of them,
will again seek for bureau this year, and
perhaps some others might apply, but any
how the Government will Of course take
care that all Necessary precautions be OBJ
served i'll lending out the money. With
these few words he would beg to recommend
the Draft for adoption by the Council.
No one requested the word further; 1st
discussion was closed; the Draft Of Ordinance
and Rules passed to End discussion.
The Council, with the consent of Govern
ment, decided unanimously with 8 votes to
proceed to the 2nd Discussion of the Draft If
