A Submarine DESTROYER.

\ dispatch from Lock port, N. Y,
Saws: Last month a young Cuban came
here and took me asurements on the
canal locks. He would not explain
thu nature of his visit. This morning
he came through here on strange
c~aft. C; gar-shaped, fifty feet long, and
bound for New York where, 1t Is said,
be will turn the boat over to the Cuban
junta. The boat was built in Cleve-
land and is in charge of Frank Lam son,
engineer, ard VIM Berlin of the
Cleveland company. Three Cubans are
on board. They are Antonio Murazo,
Regina Algerand and CalixtO RaZena.
The vessel is submarine destroyer.
The outer shell is steel and the boat
itself is operated by steam. 1t has no
smoke stack, as its generating appara-
tus consumes the smoke. 1t can attain
a speed of twenty-eight miles per hour
ana has shown even greater speed in
a test.
The fires under the boilers are fed
with bituminous crude oil. When
beneath the surface of the water, the
stea am is turned into condenser or
reservoir which will hold it until the
surface is reached, when the vapor Is
allowed to escape. Much OF this steam
returns to water in the meantime and
is properly secured. The boat is run
ming through the canal at uniform
rate Of ten mile, an hour.
Mr. Berlin said the boat was to &c
used for dyuamiting purposes and to
protect the landing of hllbuSter1ng
expeditions upon the island of Cuba
This submarine boat is designed &c
bu file torpedo catchers and destrOyers
and Will attack Spanish vessels when
approaching Cuban har bOrs.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 12.-Oscar

attorney. is under arrest for violating
the postal laws of the United States.
He addressed and mailed postal cards

About three years ago Shuck and
Dement, united in the business of
searching for heirs and owners of
dormant deposits in local savings
banks. They were fairly successful in
their enterprise, but had a difference
over the division of a particularly fat
fee they had received from a client. 1t
amounted to about $1,000, and Shuck
claimed it all as his fee. That led to
a separation, and for a year the two
carried on business separately. Shuck
went to Randsburg, and it is said in
vested the $4,000 he had claimed. Dem
ent continued hunting up owners for
forgotten money. A few days ago
Shuch returned and demanded half of

SO the Greeks were able to approach
quite near beneath the Turkish line of
fire and soon succeeded in reaching the
outermost houses, from which they
occupied a large two-story house in
the center of the village, and firing
from that point continued for some
time. Finally Mylonas sent a Turk
ish prisoner to urge the Turks to sur
render The Turkish captain replied
that he would fight to the last There
upon Mylonas ordered his men to cease
firing, intending to blow up the place
with dynamite.
Nightfall came on, and heavy hail
storm set in. The Greeks were
drenched to the skin but they held
their ground and repulsed three sorties
of the Turkish garrison with heavy

MOJAVE, April 12.-News of a triple

The men had had trouble with the In
dian over the transfer of some mining
property, in which the Indian fancied he
had been cheated. On Friday evening,
shortly after dusk, 'Panamint Tom"
in the manner peculiar to his race,
sneaked unawares upon his victims,
shooting all three of them before they
had an opportunity to defend themselves.
Langdon was instantly killed, but as
Goldsmith and Reed were only MORALLY
wounded, the Indian dubbed them to
death with the butt end of his gun He
left the scene of the tragedy on foot,
closely pursued by several miners, bent
upon lynching the murderer, and after
a hard run of fifteen miles he surren-
dered himself to Frank Montgomery of
Los Angeles, in whose camp he ran for
safety. If the murderer is not lynched
he will be brought to Mojave.
