FAIL TO REsPoND
Baroness Won Turkheim's Friends
Send No Money

SAN FRANCISCO. May 11.-AThe friends
of Jeannine Young. Baroness Won Turk
hoim," In this city have not yet done any
thing toward raising sufficient funds for
her to return to San Francisco. as she re-
Quested in her cablegram to the Chief of
Police. Attorney Hutton and one or two
other people. who are sufficiently inter-
ested in her affairs to assist her II the me-
cessity should arise. are afraid that the
cablegram to Chief Lees was sent by Won
Arnold as a decoy in the hope of obtaining
money with which to continue his travels.
Mr.. Hutton therefore will await confirma-
tion of the news of the bogus Baron's do .
sertion before he does anything in the
matter. Chief Lees cabled the Baroness
last night to communicate with Mr.. Hut
ton. On account of the reference In the
telegram to the important papers In the
Fair case" that are said to be in Won
Turkheim's possession. the Chief of Police
held a consultation yesterday morning
with George A. Knight, attorney for
Charles l.. Fair, with the object of ascer-
tanning whether the woman might have
had any incrirlinating documents.
Mr.. Knight stated that in his opinion she
had nothing that would be Of Importance
in the Craven case, or that could be In
troduced In evidence. His side Of the
case wanted nothing with this woman.
Charley Fair would not put up cent to
fetch her back. nor did he care whether
she ever comes back or not. He knows
where all the important documents In the
Craven case are. and for that reason 1t is
not at all probable that she ever had any
papers that could be used inthe litigation.

The Noted Jesuit Passes the Four
Score Mark

SAN JOSE, May 1.-THE Rev. Father
Congiato of the Society of Jesuits, died
at the Sacred Heart Novitiate at Los Gatos
last. night at the age of nearly 81 years.
Father Congiato was born in Sardinia, in
1916, and was educated as a Jesuit He en-

the College of Turin, Italy, to be fitted for
the profession of letters. He was made

Germany. The revolution of 1S4s forced
him to leave Italy. and he came to America
with Father Caredda, now of Santa Clara
College.
Arriving at New York, orders awaited
him commanding him to go to the Jesuit
College at Bardstown, KY, where he was
installed as president He remained his
term. and then came to California, where
he found the fathers laying the founda-
tions of st. Ignatius and Santa Clara Col
eges He was made president Of st. Ig
natius College, but soon afterwards was
sent to Oregon to organize the institutions
that had been started there by Father De
Smet. He later returned to California and
three times filled the highest places in the
order of the Society of Jesuits.

Minnesota Forest Fires

WHITE EARTH, Mimi, May IL
Heavy forest fires are raging in the pine
belt, about eighteen miles east of ths
agency, and considerable damage is be-
ing done to the timber. A party of men
wae sent from here to save the govern
ment saw mill. They have returned,
and report that the country is all on fire,
and that the government saw, shingle
and planning mills were completely de-
stroyed by fire despite all efforts to save
the property. The men narrowly escap-
ed with their lives. The fire cut them off
from their horses, and they were conf
PEELED to run about eight milee to a lake
to save their lives. A number of lumber
camps are also burned, with outfits OF
logging sleighs. etc. The Indians sugar
camps are burned. A heavy wind is
prevailing, and If a rainfall does not
come soon the whole country will be on

TEA TARIFF
Induces Importers to Lay in Good
Supply

0uPPAy
NEW YORK. May 1.-THE tea importers
have not awaited the passage OF the tariff
bill with Its proposed duty Of ten cents a
pound upon that commodity. but have ad-
vanced all grades of tea from three to FIVE
cents pound. The market. which was In
very sluggish condition week ago. has
been changed into one Of great activity.
Spectators have not been slow TO take
advantage of the situation and at the rate
prices are being pushed up, wholesale mer-
chants will find themselves compelled TO
pay the full amount of the proposed duty
in the new tariff bill before the measure
becomes law.
The number of orders received at Yoko-
hama and other Japanese ports has caused
an immediate advance there. This time OF
the year, importers say. happens to be
between seasons and the quantity of tea
that can be bought abroad Is said to be
small. Had the proposed action OF Con-
gress been taken month or two later.
when the bulk Of the crop comes forward,
1t would have been possible for importers
to bring in sufficient to last until 1900. when.
under the bill, tea will be free.
Should the bill be delayed by long de-
bate in the Senate this scheme may vet be
carried out to some extent and thus defeat
the object which the tariff makers had In
view-the obtaining of s10000,0oO additional
revenue.

Mismanagement

CHICAGO. May 1.-Two bills, each
asking for a receiver for the California
Fruit Transportation Company, were
filed today in the Superior Court. There
is quarrel between the stockholders of
the corporation, one party accusing the
other of acknowledgment The COM
pany has been engaged since 1889 in the
transportation of fruits and vegetables
from California to Chicago and other
markets further east. Frederick A.
Thomas, President, sues for receiver in
the name of the company. The other

PENDANTS are Eugene r. Hutchins, Vice

POLICE COMMISSIONERS
The New Member Takes His Seat.

Police Commiss ssioner-elect T. e. Glib
bon put in an appearance at the city hall
yesterday morning shortly before 10
o'clock and, after qualifying before City
Clerk Hance, proceeded to the mayors
Office, where he met his confreres. There
was a short executive conference, after
which the commissioners came out and
took their seats around the council board,
Mr.. Gibbon occupying General Forman'o
old seat by the side of Commissioner
Wyman.
As soon as the board was called to or
der Mayor Snyder presented the new
commissioner with his official star, his
honor facetously remarking that the
star was only the badge of his office and
did not carry with it free transportation
on the street cars entrance to the thea
ters or circuses, or anything Of that
kind, but that it would prevent police
man from arresting a commissioner If
it was prominently displayed at the right
time.
That is all right" replied Mr. Gibbon,
as he pinned the star on his vest, but
l think a commissioner should be ar
rested the same as any one else-of
course if he does anything that warrants
| it,"
This little formality being disposed Of
the board proceeded with the transaction
of regular business.
! On the recommendation of Chief Glass
transfer of the saloon license Of Chris
Relman, at s01 North Main street, to

PRESCOTT, Aris.. May 11.-Nothing was
heard at the Sheriff'a ONCE at late hour
this afternoon from the posse In pursuit OF
Parker. The stage driver between Pres

Ruffner and posse passed Ash Creek sta
seven hours behind the fugitives. Parker
Is heading towards the Mogollon noun
tains. where he formerly worked as q cow
boy and where he has plenty Of friends
who will assist him In his flight. A man
from there visited Parker in jail few
days ago and II Is surmised that Parker
then outlined the plan to escape. When
Cordilla departed from the other two SUM-
day. he started southwark and is heading
for Mexico. The officers found q trail last
evening and are following 1t. 1t Is a mat
ter of speculation yet whether Miller and
Parker are together and whether the for
mer was wounded Sunday, as reported, as
nothing certain can be learned of either
OF them having been seen. The funeral
services were held at 1:S0 this afternoon
over the remains of Lee Norris and his
body was shipped to his former home In
Arkansas for burial. Dolph Blair, another
of the quartet arrested Sunday. has been
released, and II is pretty certain that the
outlaws had no assistance from the outside
and that their plans were known to no one

that the rights of the commission and

no opinion in the matter, and thought
that the chief should be consulted as to
the advisability of making the reports
