In the struggle on Cuba's side might pre1u-
dice him against the insurgents. His Vir-
ginia rearing and education were quoted as
likely to cause him on that account to lean
to the Spanish side. This Is still an open
ql estion. His reception by General Weyler
was cordial, and their official relations are
represented as having been agreeable and
satisfactory on both sides. Still there is the
suggestion, that man of General Lees
experience and observation would hardly
permit narrow view to control him in
such circumstances. And especially as the
revolt against Spain Is by no manner Of
means a revolt Of blacks against whites.
Many blacks are enlisted, but the bulk of
the forces in the field Is composed Of an
excellent class of patriotic whites, and the
leaders are men of high courage and
seldierly education. There Is everything on
the Cuban side of the contest calculated to
awaken the sympathies Of lover Of free
dom for people worthy of freedom.
Another interesting line Of speculation
relates to the President. If General Lee
expresses warm sympathy with the insur-
gents, will that affect the President in his
future course? Is it possible to bring him
around to a position in accord with that
Of the country? Can his blood be stirred

doing of police duty for Spain? There Is
some small hope Of this among some Of
the friends of Cuba But they agree with
the others that up to this time he has been
extremely disappointing.
The basis of this hope is another hope
that the President may improve the oppor-
tunity to arrange an all-round agreeable
exit for himself from the official scene. In
the campaign just closed he has played a
courageous. patriotic and public-spirlted
part. He considers that the election Of Mr.
some measure a vindication of his own
course on finance. He is feeling very COM
Portable on that score, and has noted with
much pleasure the Endorsement that Gen
eral Harrison. Thomas B. Reed and other
eminent republican speakers have given
him for his action in the Debs strike mat
ter. But there is his foreign policy history,
as ugly and as distressing a peacock s
foot and an impression obtains that he
would like to relieve the effect Of that II he
could. The Hawaiian episode, so far as he
is concerned, must remain written.
Cuba Is bad enough, but, as the incident
is not yet closed, something may be done
there to soften in the end the public con-
demnation of his course. Will he embrace
the opportunity? Its days are gliding
swiftly by.

The Commissioners have avoided estab-
fishing dangerous precedent by refusing
to grant the request of the Post Office De-
partment for permission to erect overhead
telephone wires. The law was clear and
the wise as well as the equitable course
in handling the case led directly to a mega
tive conclusion. The proposed infraction
of the rule might have given great trouble
in the future, and the Commissioners are
to be commended for their prudent fore
thought.

MURDERED AND ROBBED
Chinese storekeeper Near Yuma Killed
Last FRIDAY Night

L. c. Moreland. an old miner and pros
pector, yesterday received notification
by telegraph that his storekeeper,
Chinaman named Sim Lee had on Fri
day last been murdered and robbed at
his mines, the Nugget and Sunrise, twen-
ty miles east Of Yuma, in the San Pablo
mining district.
Mr.. Morelands mines have not been
worked for some time, but he has had
Sim Lee to watch them for the past three
years. At the mines he had established
a general store, which was conducted by
the Chinaman. The goods were bought
wholesale in this city and at such a price
that Sim Lee could sell them at the
mines as cheaply as they could be sold
at Yuma, twenty miles away. On this
account he had incurred the displeasure
of Sc ieral Mexican storekeepers near by.
and 1t is thought that one or more of
them, in conjunction with several dis
solute whites, committed the murder.
Particulars of the crime are not vet
available, only telegram notifying him
OF the bare facts having been received,
Mr.. Moreland says that the Chinaman
was consumptive, SO years old, and
thoroughly trustworthy in every res
pect. He conducted the store on a half
share in the profits, and was a successful
trader. He had the combinati ton of his
safe and was accorded implicit conf
dence by his employer. Last evening
Mr.. Moreland left for the mines in COM
pany with several friends to investigate
the crime, hoping to bring the murderers

TWO COTTAGES BURNED
Flames Last Evening De7troy Couple Of
Residences

Fire last evening destroyed two
frame cottages at Nos. 139 and 141 New
hall street. between First and Second,
entailing loss thereby of about $2700,
partially covered by insurance.
Shortly after 1880 o'clock flames were
discovered bursting from the roof of No.
139, and before the fire department had
arrived in response to an alarm they
had communicated to No. 141 on the
north. Both buildings We're as dry as
tinder and burned fiercely. The firemen
had much difficulty in getting a stream
on the blaze. but by laying some 2500 feet
of hose managed to get water from the
corner of Union avenue and First street.
Owing to the scarcity of water nothing
more could be done than confine the
flames to the property they were al
ready feeding on.
The house at No. 141 was owned by a
Mrs. Ludwig and was unoccupied, but
was partially furnished, being for rent.
1t was valued at about $500 and is to-
tai loss, only about $50 worth of furnish
ings being saved. G. A. Sumner is
agent for the premises at No 1879, and
the house was worth perhaps $1,000. This
residence was, like the other, unoccu-
pied, but was not furnished. The resi-
dence at No. 143, occupied by Attorney
F. A. Baker, was threatened, but, as the
wind was luckily blowing from the
southwest the flames were carried away
from it. The loss is partially covered by
insurance.

His mother glanced out of the window
while his head was buried in her lap,
and seeing that the stars We're out and
the moon was beaming, she let his pray
er pass as he made it, The next morn
ing she observed with pleasure that the
heavens had carried out the promise
of the night before.

gave an occasional low chuckle of con-
tent.

Big San Diego Water Suit

A bill in equity was filed in the United
States circuit court yesterday in the
matter of F. S. Nicholson VS.. the city of
San Diego, the mayor and members of
the common council thereof, and the
Southern California Mountain Water
company, praying for an injunction
against the said defendants restraining
them from taking any further action to-
at the recent election in San Diego to
secure a water system owned by the
said Southern California Mountain
Water company. The plaintiff is a resi-
dent of New York city. and owns prop
erty in San Diego. The grounds on
which the injunction is asked is that the
pretended election was invalid and that
the common council as constituted is an
illegal body. Further that the amount
of the water contracted for, 1,72S.000 cub
ic feet of water continuously every twen-
ty-four hours is far in excess of the
wants of the inhabitants of the said
city of San Diego. Plaintiff prays that
upon the final hearing the proceedings
of the mayor and common council in is
suing 81 500, 900 bonds be declared illegal
and void and that the said pretended
contract between the said city and the
Southern California Mountain Water
company be decreed and declared null

from carrying out the terms of the said
contract.

misSed-court Notes

The fight between the Los Angeles
Lighting company and the Gas Consum-
ers' Protective association was again
before Judge Mckinley yesterday after
noon on the motion of the Gas company
to dissolve the injunction now in force
restraining it from interfering with the
governors of the protective associa-
tion, and on a cross complaint praying
for an injunction against the Protective
association, restraining them from in any
way interfering with the pipes or meters
of the Gas Company. The Gas company
was represented by Judge w. A. Cheney
and Hon. T. e. .Gibbon. while the interests
of the Protective association were looked
after by Hon. John T. Jones and NJ. w.
Conkling.
The contesting parties had one of the
gas governors and a meter in court to
demonstrate the way in which the con-
nections were made and to show how
damage might result if the connections
were improperly made.
Lengthy arguments were made on
both sides, in which all the questions
at issue were gone into. Stripped of all
legal verbiage, the whole matter hangs
on the ownership of the pipes of the Gas
company and the consumer. The Gas
company claims the ownership of the
pipes up to and including the rise
pipe and the meter and its connections,
while the Protective association claims
that the consumer owns all the pipes
inside the curb lines.
After listening to the arguments Judge
Mckinley took the matter under ad-
Visement
