THE ALARM SYSTEM

FIRE COMMITTEE COMEDIES


The council committee on FIRE depart
ment met last night to act in accord
ance with the decision reached the pre-
vIous evening at the conference OF the
subcommittee and the committee of
underwriters, which was to secure an
expert who would set right the cIty's
Are alarm system, The committee in
structed the clerk to communicate with
the Gamewell company, New York, as
to the approximate cost of the experts
Inspection, also deciding to secure the
services of Mr.. Robert Hazlett, West
ern Union llneman.
Resides Chairman Mcclure, there were
present Messrs. Baird, Otto, Hahne,
Nesbltt, Gartey and Chief Klieves, The
committee was of the unanimous opin-
ion that an expert should be secured as
soon as possible, and over this matter
there was but little discussion, There
was some opposition TO having Mr..
Hazlett assist him, but II ended In a
few remarks, il was alleged that Mr'
Hazlett is candidate for chief, but It
being SHOWN tndl ne Ttpdlleu tHu SSS-
TEN IN previous years, this had little eff
feet on his selection. One reason for his
selection was that by accompanying the
Gamewell company's man, his obserVa-
tions would be OF great benefit to the
city, In case the system gets out of or
der again sometime.
Chief Rlieves stated that he had an
expert from the Gamewell factory here
several days ago, he showing a letter
from him last night, which stated that
new wires were necessary. A member
OF the committee remarked that this
method was forestalling the committee.
In asking for an expert It was decided
to insist that Tinker, the man the chief
had, be not sent here.
II the compensatlons for the expert
and Mr.. HaZlett do not exceed 500, the
committee will order the inspection just
as soon as this fact Is assured. II It ex-
ceeds this amount, council will be ask
ed to make the appropriation. The
committee and the committee OF un-
derwrlters will witness the inspection
and tests when made.

remained at his uncle's house in
Miranda during the early part of the
campaign, and then went to Caracas,
where the election of Gen. Andrade
was celebrated by huge procession
and other demonstrations. The cleo
tion gave much satisfaction, DR. And
rade says, from the fact that the gov
ernment allowed the largest possible
freedom to voters, and the result was
secured without any agitation or signs
of trouble. This was especially salts
factory in view of the agitation In
which the elections have involved
Venezuela during past years.
The new president announced his
policy in a letter shortly before The
election. 1t made no reference to the
British Venezuelan boundary question,
but referred in general terms to the
desire to maintain peaceful relations
with other countries. 1t spoke of the
development of the internal resources
of the country and the encouragement
of immigration. No intimation was
given of a change in tariff or financial
conditions, as it is understood to be
the view of the new president that
the best interests of Venezuela lie in
the maintenance of present economic
conditions Gen. Andrade's term will
begin in February next, the election
being certified and approved by the
congress in the meantime.

WASHINGTON, Sept. PA final de-
cision has been reached by the ar
bitrators who are to determine the
British Guiana Venezuelan boundary
line, as to the fifth arbitrator or UNI
pire, who is to act with them. His
name is for the present withheld. 1t
is not Barren Courcel, whose name has
been mentioned in this connection, nor
King Oscar of Sweden, who was to
name the umpire, only in case the ar
bitrators failed to agree. An agree
ment was reached without the neces-
sity of calling on the Swedish sover-
eign. The umpire is an European, but
this is said to be without significance
since no question involving the Mon
roe doctrine is to be submitted to the
tribunal. The arbitrators in behalf Of
the Venezuela are Chief Justice Fuller
and Justice Brewer, Of the United
States supreme court.
Minister Andrade, of Venezuela, is
back from his summer vacation. His
son, Dr. Andrade, has also returned

Special to the Globe.
NEW ULM, Sept. 24.-Today was the
last and closing day Of the twenty-first
session of the national grand lodge of
the Sons of Hermann. The day opened
bright and clear, and the delegates
were on hand early to promptly take
up the action and work of the finish
ing day. The session OF the grand lodge
adjourned sine die tonight. The only
proceedings obtainable were the result
and discussion of the grand lodge on
the subject of insurance, and the re-
suit of the election of national grand
officers. The grand lodge held two ses-
sions today, the important work of the
convention being transacted at the
morning session. The national grand
lodge assemblies only once in four
years, so that the officers elected have
to serve for that term The election Of
officers occurred at this morning ses-
sion, and the result is as follows:
julius Schuetze, of Austin, Tex,
president; first vice president, A. Beh-
rims, Of Chicago; second vice presi-
dent, w. Stein, of Great Falls, Mon;
secretary, Richard Schoeffer, of New
Haven, Conn.,; treasurer, Conrad Wal
ters, of Chicago.
Following the election of officers the
place for holding the twenty-second
national convention was next consid-
cred, and San Antonio, Tex, was final
ly decided upon after spirited con-
test. An important resolution. which
was passed, empowers the national Of
ficers to prepare paper, asking for
the Incorporation by congress. A spe-
cial act will have to be enacted by the
national house of representatives to
accomplish this The object of such
an act is to enable the order to issue
Insurance to those of its members de-
string it. The grand lodge will guar
antee the payment of all insurance
after it's Incorporation. The grand
lodge appropriated to the grand lodge
of Minnesota, out of the national treas
ury. the $1,000 advanced by the Mime
sofa grand lodge for the completion of

already existed The case of Miss Nc
Call is on one of the most prominent
avenues of the city. No previous case
has appeared on the street. Of the
ninety odd cases in New Orleans from
the beginning, but four have been
among the negro population. There are
still several serious cases among these
who are ill., but the board of health
is daily discharging patients as cured.
Mayor Flower today ordered a police
guard for the Beauregard school, where
a mob made an attempt to burn last
night. Only portion of the building
was burned, and it is still possible to
use the structure as hospital.
1t was shortly after midnight that
the mob applied the torch to the school
and thereby carried into execution a
threat that had been made during yes
terday When the firemen arrived on
the scene their hose was cut, but with
the assistance of the police the flames
were eXtinguished. The burning of the
school created intense Indignation here.
A committee today called on the
mayor to protest against the use OF
the building as a hospital. His honor
denounced the outrage of last night.
The question had arisen, ne said,
whether there should be law and order
here or anarchy. He was determined,
If 1t required all the forces of the city
and state, that the Beauregard school
building should be used as a temporary
hospital.
The situation here is generally un-
changed. Freight is moving slowly and
there is practically no passenger traffic.

MOBILE, Ala, Sept. 24.-There have
been three deaths and three new cases
since the report given out yesterday
at 2 o'clock. The deaths were: John G.
Bourne, reported last night; Rev.
Daniel Murray, of st. Vincent's parish;
Mcdonald, aged seventy-one, a new
case; Frank Stewart, found yester-
day afternoon dying in a negro COOK
shop on Water street near Church
street. He had been on q spree for
the past ten days and was not sup
posed last night to have the fever
When he died, however, he turned yel-
low, and thus came under the definition
of a yellow fever death. Father Muir
ray was thirty years of age and a
native of Middleton, county Cork, Ire
land. After studying at the Jesuits', at
Limerick, he finished in theology in
the American college of Rome. He ar
rived in Mobile in 1898. From here
he was transferred to Birmingham.
Ala, and Bessemer, Ala, and in jan
uary last he was transferred to Mont
gomery Ala. Hearing that an as
sistant was needed here he offered TO
come, and reached Mobile Sept 8. The
fever broke out in a few days after
his arrival He preached at st. Vim
cents last Sunday, telling the COLL
gregation to be prepared for the final
summons. That afternoon he was TAX
en- sick and had a continued high fever
from start to finish.
The new cases are Fred Bavier,

about o'clock, except when his pres
ence was required by the judge. Last
night he retired and at II o'clock this
morning the warden Of the prison
went to call him. The warden went to
the bedside of Velasquez and said in
a friendly tone, as he knew the pris-
oner well:
Come, my boy, it's time to- get up:
the judge wants you.Y
Receiving no answer ne began to
shake the inspector, when he noted
that VelasQuez had a bullet wound
in the right temple, and, on inyesH-
eating further, found a small two-bar-
relied pistol, with which the act had
been committed. The weapon was 6
small one. The muzzle of the pistol
had been placed so close to the temple
and pressed into the skin that 1t prac-
tieally made no noise on being dis
charged.
The warden Immediately notified the
judicial authorities, who went at once
to the room of the suicide and sum-
moned medical men. The doctors
found that death must have been in

The Saint Paul globe., 1897-09-25

in the BRAIN The physicians came to
the conclusion that the act must have
been committed about $50 o'clock this
morning. The body was delivered to
relatives.
A letter was found in the room, in
which Velasquez made his statements
to the public, saying his death was, he
felt, the satisfaction he owed to So
ciety,and he should, therefore, give that
satisfaction by leaving the world. He
also said that the crime was suggested
to him by Inspector Villa Vicencio, of
the Second police district, who is in
prison. Velasquez added that, under
other circumstances, nothing could
have induced him to take part in the
crime. He felt that his loyalty to the
chief magistrate, whose life had been
attempted, warranted him in putting
Arroyo to death. Velasquez had very
large acquaintance, having been en-
ployed, after leaving college, in the
department of finance, and was secre-
.tary to the minister of finance. At
one time he. was connected with the
newspaper, Ell Combate, and had at
ian early age been elected to congress-
He had effected many reforms during
his incumbency as inspector.
