vIcroR's POLITICAL ROW.
Scott Ashton WIN Sue Mayor Ford for Ma
licious Prosecution.

Victor, Colo, Aug 9.-The political
embroglio which has agitated this city
for some months past and which has
resulted in the arrest of a number of
citizens of prominence on sensational
charges, is fast becoming very heated
and from present Indications will soon
reach a climax. Charges and counter
charges have been made by the con-
flicting parties with considerable fire.
Quency, the last being the arrest on
Saturday afternoon of Scott Ashton, a
prominent attorney and politician, on
the charge of Issuing n check with in
tent to cheat and defraud w. G. Hydon.
The complaint was entered before JUS
tice of the Peace Pennington of Grip
pie Creek on the date before mentioned
by Mayor Ford of Victor, and the pro-
ceedings were dismissed by the justice
this afternoon.
Mr.. Ashton now proposes to institute
suit against Mayor Ford for $4,000
damages for false Imprisonment and
malicious prossMition. The papers in
the case, Mr.. Ashton states, will be
served on the mayor tomorrow. Fur
ther. Mr.. Ashton, as attorney for James
Doyle, J. B. Cunningham and n number
Of other prominent taxpayers, intends
institutlng suit against the rity treas
urer enjoining him from paying an al
legged Illegal warrant drawn in the
name of Il. d. Ford for $3.50 with the
discount added for the purpose of pur-
chasing hose wagon. also to sue for
the recovery Of 1865 paid by the town
for the printing OF the official ballot In
the recent municipal election on the
ground that the sum was exorbitant,
and also to enjoin the treasurer from
paying warrant for S225 issued by
vote of the city council to City Attor-
ney Miles for last months salary on
the grounds of illegality based on the
fact that the city council can by law
only pay the sum of $40 per month for

of the Liberals, will surely succeed
Canovas, and feel certnin that should
Sagasta succeed CanOvas he will fol!
low the same general policy in regard
to Cuba as Canovas made every eff
fort to do. 1t will doubtless ne mis-
idea to bring about relationship be-
tween Spain and Cuba such as exists
between England and Canada. But
such relationship Cuba will never nc.
cept. She must have complete and abb
solute independence.
"Still, 1t is my belief that the kill
ing of Canovas will be great benefit
for the cause of Cuba. 1t may even
lead to independence. Independence,
that is the only thing for Cuba.
"Yes, Sagasta will su"ceed Canovas.
Canovas was directly responsible for
the relations which existed between
the United States and Spain as re-
CARDS Cuba, because his instructions
were so carefully followed out by
Spain's representatives in Washing
ton that President Cleveland would
not act friendly to Cuba. The death
of Canovas cannot but help the cause
Of Cuba"
Major Antonio Serrano, n member
of the Cuban junta. who was an Off.
Ger in the ten years war and now has
two of his sons fighting for independ-
appeared pleased when told tonight
that Premier Canovas had met vio-
lent death.
"It means" he said, "the overturn-
ing of the present government and the
subversion Of the forces that are back
ing Weyler In Cuba. 1t means that the
people have at last some tangible evil
dence Of what they think OF the pill
ing up Of debt that cannot be paid
and the inutility of further proceed
ing with the slaughters called war In
Cuba. 1t will have very great influ-
ence In shaping the conflict in the
island, and will give to the insurgents
fresh vigor and to the Spanish SOL
diers in Cuba greater restlessness.
firmly believe that there will be
great number of descrtions from the
Spanish army in Cuba. following upon
the announcement Of the death of Sc
nor Canovas. and there will be cor
responding number of accessories to
the Cuban army. While l do not be-
lieve in assassination. | think the re-
moving of Canovas will be the saliva
tion of the pacificos in Cuba. who are
now being butchered by Weyler."

Madrid, Aug. S.-Senor Canovas del
Castillo, the prime minister of Spain,
was assassinated to-day at Santa
Agueda by an anarchist. The murderer
fired three shots, two of which struck
the premier in the head, the other in the
chest. The wounded man fingered un-
conscious for two hours and died ut
O'clock this afternoon.
Santa Agueda is noted for its baths.
The place Is between San Sebastian,
the summer residence of the Spanish
court, and Vittoria, the capital of the
province OF Alava, about thirty miles
south of BilliO. The premier went there
last Thursday to take three weeks

The assassin was Immediately arrest
ed. He Is a NeapOlitan and gives the
pame of Rinaldi, but 1t is believed that
this is an assumed name and that his
real name is Michaele Augino Golli.
The queen regent, on hearing the sad
news, dispatched her own physician,
DIR. Bustos, by Il special train from San
Sebastian. Later, on learning that Ca
novas was dead, she wired her con.
dolence to the widow.
The health of Senor Canovas had i'm
proved greatly of late. He had been
leading very quiet life, although he
attended TO the business Of state.
At the moment of the assassination
he was waiting in the gallery of the
bathing establishment for his wife,
who was to join him for lunch. Sud-
denly the assassin, who had the ap-
pearance of an ordinary visitor, ap-
preached and fired at him point blank

and coming out behind the left shoul-
der and the other two lodging in the
head. He fell instantly and only re

The continued fall in silver and the

The Damage to Fruit Farms by Sundays
storm Greater Than First Thought.
Boulder, Colo, Aug 9.-The result of
yesterday afternoons wind and hail
storm was by far more disastrous than
was at first anticipated. In Boulder
alone there was merely heavy rain.
but on the north. in the fruit farms,
the damage was considerable. Very
many of them suffered more or less.
The main ones, however. were Joseph
Wolff, William w. Wolff. Mrs. Mack
intosh and Anderson 4 Parsons.
At Joseph VOLTS place only the
northern part OF his fruit farm was
damaged. lie estimates that the result
of the storm will be about thousand
baskets OF grapes loss to him. At An
derson 4 Parsons the loss was very
heavy, all their fruit being badly dam
aged. There is little left of the black
berries and currants and other fruits
now ripening, while the grapes were
almost totally destroyed. Vegetables
We're beaten into pulp. At w. w.

ing establishment, 40xii feet. In course
of construction, was raZed to the
ground total wreck. The trees In
the tcn-acrc apple orchard were strip
ped of limbs api leaves, scarcely limb
being left on any OF the trees In the en-
tire orchard. Corn was moved TO the
ground. His large watermelon patch
Is in ruins. The hail in this neighbor-
hood is said to have been over eight
inches deep, and the hail stones Of very
large size. Northeast Of Mr.. Wolff's
place much damage was done to corn
and oat fields and also 10 gardens. 1t
is said that over at Hygiene great dam
age was done to the orchards.
