THEY WILL NOT TALK.
Nelson and Mrs. Staples Refuse to
Tell Who Shot Him.

CHICAGO, July 3.-The police are
convinced that both Charles B. Mel
son, formerly of Cadallic. Mich, the
bicyclist, who was shot in Washington
Park Thursday night. and his COM
panion, Mrs. Margaret Staples, know
who the assaliant was, Notwithstanding
the fact that Nelson has made a sworn
ante-morteIn statement to the contrary.
In this statement, Nelson swore that
Mrs. Staples did not shoot him.
Mrs. Staples. according to her own
admission, is a morphine user and her
conflicting statements of the affair may
be attributed TO this. She is still de-
tanned at the Hyde Park police sta :
ton. To-day she told the police that
one evening as she was riding her bicy-
Gle in Washington Park, near where
Nelson was shot, a tall man wearing a
dark suit of bicycle clothes, and dark
blue cap, tried to persuade her to talk
to him. She says she refused and he
desisted and left her alone. The man,
who she says was almost as dark as a
niger, then rode away, saying that he
would get even with her.
The physicians attending Nelson have
given up all hope of his recovery.
In the Chicago hospital this after
noon Mrs. Staples, on her knees and
with her arms around Nelson's neck,
begged him TO tell the policemen who
surrounded his cot, who 1t was that
shot him Thursday night in Washing
ton Park. For Gods sake tell these
people who it was and make them re-
lease me from JAIL" she said.

CHRISTIAN ENDEAv0R COL0RS.
STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO
ARE BRIGHT WITH THEM.
Lieut.-Gov. Jeter VIII Probably
Welcome the Visiting Delegates
to the State.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 3.-All the
main streets of the city are bright with
the Christian Endeavor colors strung
across the thoroughfares at in
.ervals in honor of the delegates who
are arriving by every train. The colors
are waving gaily in the breeze and all
the stores, hotels and public buildings
are also bright with the Endeavor bunt-
ine. A mammoth arch has been con-
structed across Market street, bearing
the motto of the organization and in
scriptions of welcome.
About 2,500 delegates arrived by trains
to-day and were met at various sta
tions near San Francisco by local COM
mittees and escorted to the city and
assigned to quarters during their So
journ here. All the local arrangements
have been carefully planned and are
being carried out with precision and
thoroughness. The delegates have had
an enjoyable trip and are enthusiastic
over their reception and grateful for the
thoughtful plans for their comfort and
entertainment. BY tomorrow, it is es-
t;mated that at least 1000 more En-
deayorers will have reported at head
quarters They will augment the at
tendance at the local meetings of the
Christian Endeavor Societies connected
with the various city churches.
Before twenty-four hours shall have
passed this city will have admitted into
her gates countless numbers of visitors
10 the Christian Endeavor' '97 conven-
ton. Lavish preparations have been
made for their reception and the streets.
I
have been decorated with the colors of
the Endeavorers.
The entertainment committee reports
that it has received applications and can
provide accommodation for 1900 DEL
egates on this side of the bay alone. One
of the features OF the convention will
he a monster concert on Tuesday even
ing, which will be participated in by a
chorus of nearly 1900 voices. In the
absence of Governor Budd, who is
touring the State with VIM. J. Bryan.
it is probable that the visiting delegates
will be welcomed to the tSate by Lieu
tenant Governor Jeter
Los ANGELES, July 3.-Over $500
eXcursionists, members Of the Christian
Endeavor parties, are in Los Angeles
and viii remain here Urtil Monday,

Deficits Show a Similar Increase at the
Same Time.
Prosperity, So Long Awaited, is at
ing Expansion of Our Eleven
Millions in Loans Has Never
Before Been Equa1ed Except
From Special Causes.

NEW YORK, July 3.-The ''Finan-
cier'' says: The statement of the as
sociated banks Of New York City for
the week confirms the fact that the
prosperity SO long awaited is at length
fact. The astonishing expansion OF
S11 ,026, 800 in loans has never been
equaled before except perhaps once or
twice when special causes accounted
for the Increase, but in the current
statement no unusual factors beyond an
actual revival in business are to be dis
covered. Out of the sixty-iye State in
stitutiOnS now connected with the
Clearing house fifty show an increased
loan, While only fifteen show dimin-
ished discounts. This is a larger per-
centage of increase than has been re-
ported for months past.
The National City Bank and the Ma
tional Bank of Commerce, it is true,
are responsible for half the total in
crease, but the remainder, which of
itself is a noteworthy gain, is distrib-
uted almost uniformly among the other
banks. The prediction made in this
analysis last week that loans would as
sumo record breaking proportions has
ipated. To define in what lines this
expansion has run would be difficult,
but July settlement, heavy customs
payments and mercantile demands, to-
gether with re-discounts and the shift
ing Of investment securities by large
interpretations, have been responsible
for a large part of the changes.
The deposits, as might have been ex-
pected, show a similar increase. The
total deposits for the first time in the
history of the Clearing house exceed
the 600 100000 mark. The heavy de-
posits of the present year have in
creased the % per cent. reserve liabil
ity to $151 ,215, ,925, and as the actual
cash reserve in banks, according to the
statement, was 1892, $50, 500, the sur
plus above legal requirements is S4l,-
3S4, ,S15, a decrease of ST, ,S54, 275 in one
week. The banks are gaining specie,
despite the heavy demand for cash, and
one bank, the National Park, now has
over $10000,000, or II per cent, Of
it's cash reserve in gold. The loss of the
legal tenders for the week was S5,9IS,-
400 The interior movement in this
direction continues, but the withdrawal
of legal tenders for gold export and the
heavy customs payments are counter
acting it to some extent. Domestic ex-
change is noticeably easier at interior
points and this foreshadows a dimin-
ishing of the flood of money which has
been pouring into New York at this
season.

solved. To-day was the day of sale and
this morning Sheriff Borgward received
another writ issued by Judge Seawell
on a complaint said to be identical with
the one used in the case that was
heard and determined some days ago,
but during the forenoon Tax Collector
Day appointed William Tyler Deputy
and left the Courthouse.
The Sheriff and the attorney for Mill
Ter q LUX haunted the corridors of the
Courthouse waiting until the injunction
could be served. Promptly at noon
Tyler walked out of the Courthouse
door, and before the Sheriff knew what
was going on, the whole list of delin-
quent property. including the canals in
controversy, had been declared sold to
the State. The point was raised that
the sale must take place in the office of
the Tax Collector, instead of at the
Courthouse door, and on this distinc-
tion hangs the controversy at present,
for before Tyler could retreat to his Of
flee and make the sale a second time
an enjoining writ had been served.

WITHOUT FOUNDATION.
Alleged Indian Troubles at Camas
Prairie Amount to Nothing.

WASHINGTON, July 3.-Adjutant-
General Becker received telegram this
morning from General Coppinger COM
manding the Department of the Platte,
dated Omaha, July I'd, in regard to the
alleged Indian troubles at Camas Prai-
rie, with the following interesting de-
tails
Lieutenant Irwin, Fort Hall agent,
wires from Haley, Idaho, that reports
of Indian trouble at Camas Prairie have
proved without foundation; that no
more than forty Indians hemhis and
Shoshones) are in that vicinity and have
committed no depredations; that he
knows them to be peaceful Indians and
that no troops will be needed. In view
of the above information from reliable
officers on the spot, I have revoked
order for the movement of the Fort
Robinson squadron to Haley.
Lieutenant Colonel Rand will be at
the latter place to-day and assist in
the Strengthening out of matters there.
Lemhis agent wires he has been in
formed that five of his Indians who
were with their families, are absent
from the reservation and are supposed
to be in the vicinity of Camas Prairie,
while passing through deserted villages
entered house and tore Innings off the
walls and may have committed other
depredations. He says he has sent
Indian police in pursuit with instruc
tions TO have Indians return stolen
things at once and to return Indians to
the agency. He fears no hostile dem
onstrations and says these Indians will
commit theft, but are inoffensive. This
seems to be the basis for complaints.

CENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA.
United Mine Workers Strike Will
Not Affect Miners There.

P1TTSBURG, July 3-IndustriaI cir
cles were much excited to-day over the
development in the situation among
several important trades. On the verge
of the declaration of the coal miners of
the Pittsburg district to take the lead in
the general suspension of the coal min
ing industry, came the concession of the
Tin Plate Miners Association, as the
Amalgamated Associa ton of Steelwork-
ers. The mining officials here say that
idleness will prevail in the majority OF
all the rail and river mines in the Pitts
burg district. The struggle for higher
wages will be of short duration and that
by reason of great demand for coal for
lake trade at this season of the year
they will be granted an advance before
the operators lose large contracts for the
future delivery of coal.
The. miners of this district claim that
the. estimate fixes the number of men
who will go on strike in PENNSYLVANIA
West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana and Illi-
nois at 100000 They hope to increase
this number as the strike sentiment
grows. The tin plate workers are jubi-
liant over the concessions made by the
manufacturers. 1t is estimated that
5,OOO skilled Workmen will resume Tues
day morning. Nearly all the tin plate
manufacturers in the PittSburg district
have orders enough to keep their plants
running six months
The coal miners of the Pittsburg dis
trict in delegate convention here to-day
decided unanimously to comply with the
ORDER of the National Executive Board
+r fy;I oil IF ha ~,
the district will lay down their tools to-
morrow and enter upon a struggle for
better wages which promises to be one
OF the longest contested fights ever
known in the labor world The dele
gates to the convention left for their
homes full of strike sentiment, each man
promising a complete suspension of
work in the mines he represented.
The miners of this district have COM
pleted arrangements for a series of mass
meetings to be held throughout the en-
tire district and it is believed that the
effect of these meetings will be to bring
out every digger in the district, those
who are under ironclad agreements as
well as others.
PHILLIPSBURG Pa.), July 3.-The
strike called by the United Mine Work
ers will not affect the miners in the
Central Pennsylvania coal regions, in
some portions of which several hundred
miners have been on a strike against a
12115 per cent. reduction for a month in
Cambria County.
ALTOONA (Pa.), July 3.-Up to the
present time the miners of the Cambria
and Clearf1eld region have made no
declaration regarding the strike ordered
by the Executive Board of Union Mine
Workers. If the miners in this region
should strike at all it will be merely a
sympathetic strike.

BERLIN. July 3.-The Cabinet crisis,
which has been dragging for weeks, has
reached another stage, hardly less Curl
Gus than the previous one 1t is be-
lieved in political circles that Baron
Won Bulow. if he shows the necessary
capacity and ability to secure the sup
port of majority of the Diet and the
Reichstag, will be Prince Hohenlohe's s
successor, the Western Secretary in
that case going to Count Won Kidelin-
hector, the Emperor's favorite and the
present German Minister to Copenha-
gen. The ''Vossische Zeitung" adj
vanced Liberal, compares the condi-
tions here with those prevailing in Tur-
key and Russia, saying that 'in Tur-
key a Pasha is to-day Finance Min
lister, tomorrow a General and the day
after Minister for Foreign Affairs The
same is with US to-day"
One of the most curious features of
the present situation is that Prince
Hohenlohe and the Emperor have not
agreed on the subject. Prince Hohen-
lohe refused point blank to countersign
the appointment of General Podibiaski,
as the successor of the late DR.. Stephen
as Imperial Postmaster and left Ber-
lin for his estate in a huff.
On the other hand it is reported in
court circles that the Emperor will visit
Prince Hohenlohe at Schillingfurst lat
er in the summer. The visit of Prince
Hohenlohe and Baron BuloW simul-
taneously to Prince Bismarck is taken
as an indication of another reconcilia-
ton, and the whole Of the Bismarck
press is writing on the subject in a tone
of satisfaction, claiming that the old
Bismarck force of politics, especially
foreign policies, and the representative
measures against socialism will be re-
newed. 1t is certain, however, that
the whole situation has not been
cleared up and additional surprises may
be expected at any hour.
The naval bill being prepared by Ad-
miral Won Tierpitz, the new Secretary
of the Navy, provides for a loan Of
$50, 900, 600 marks, of which 10000, 600
marks is to be devoted to the construc
ton of battleships and 60,00000 marks
for building ironclad cruisers.
The bill will be presented to the
Reichstag in the fall.
There have been an unusual number
of accidents and deaths from sunstroke
at the army maneuvers and field eX-
ercises at various points, owing to the
intense heat of the past week.. At
the inspection parade of the Fourth
Infantry, brigade Of guards, fifty men,
belonging to one regiment, were sun
struck; thirty-two were disabled on a
similar occasion at Stettin, forty three
collapsed at Mayence, seventeen were
overcome at Posen and nineteen were
sunstruck at Bomberg. Many of the
sufferers subsequently died.
The Prussian Minister of the Inter
ior has again ordered the authorities
through out the country to pay partic-
ular attention to American pork and
to note whether each package is ac-
companied by certificate of origin and
to report each case of finding. trichinae
in it and most especially in salt pork.

Sheriff Pardee and YoIo Officers
on the Track of a Man.

WOODLAND, July 3.-Sheriff Pardee
and Deputy Poulson of Lake County,
together with several Yolo County Off
Gals are on the tracks of a man who
is supposed to be George Coburn, a
desperate fellow, wanted in Lake Coun-
ty as fugitive from justice.
He was convicted in Lake County of
robbery in 1896, but a few davs after
a three years sentence was passed on
him he made his escape, and until last
week no clew of him was found. Last
week word was received by the Lake
County officials that Coburn was in
hiding on his fathers place and a posse
went to take him. A fight followed in
which Coburn. Sr., was killed. and a
member of the posse injured. Young
Coburn made his escape in the dark
ness, but has been tracked into this
county, and it is believed that his cap
ture is only matter of a few days.

THE GRADY WILL NOT COME.
A Hitch Between Her Owners and
Prospective Purchasers.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 3.-The
stern wheel steamer H. C. Grady viii
not make the trip on the coast from
Portland to this harbor for some weeks
yet, and perhaps not at all. There has
been some hitch in the agreement be
tween the owners of the vessel and the
prospective purchasers.
Failure TO purchase the steamer has
been a disappointment to the produce
dealers of Oakland, who hoped to oper-
ate her on the Sacramento River to
bring the products of the ranchers di-
rect to their stores instead of having to
cart them across the bay from the
steamer landings at the San Francisco
Wharves
To take the place of the expected
steamer, the little gasoline schooner
DuXbury has been chartered, and she
viii commence in few days making
three round trips a week up the river
from the Oakland wharves, carrying
fruits and vegetables
