in the death of Senior Canovas. He was
the mainstay of the Spanish govern
ment, and, withal, was man of great
ability. 1t is difficult to say, from this
distance, who will take his place, but it
will not be Sagasta. The Liberals will
hardly come into power as result of this
assassination. The same party will re-
main in power, I believe, and do not
look for any immediate change in the
relations existing between Spain and Gu
ba or between Spain and the United
States.
Spain certainly has no reason to find
fault with the treatment accorded her by
the United States. Surely, no country
with colony standing in the relations
to another country that Cuba stands to
the United Safes has ever been treated
as well by the other country interested
as has Spain by the United States. We
have enforced our neutrality laws, even
to the extent of arresting and mprison-
ing our own citizens who are charged
with filibustering. We have allowed the
destruction of millions of dollars worth
OF American property, and the Spaniards
in Cuba have even arrested our citizens
and put them in prison. No country ever
received more lenient treatment at the
hands of any nation than Spain has re-
ceived at the hands of the United States.
1 do not think, however, that Spain can
hold Cuba. l Go not think she will ever
conquer the islands. l believe that Spain
will be worn out at the end of the next
dry season. and that she will have to
give up the island"

HOFFMAN'S MURDER
little Evidence Connecting Figel
With the Crime

SAN FRANCISCO, August 10.-Police-
man Colen continued his story when the
Figal examination upon the charge OF
murder wa resumed before Judge Camp
bell today. He reiterated his statement
made at the Coroner's inquest as to the
finding of Isaac Hoffman upon the floor
of the office, when he responded to the
alarm sounded by Watchman Ferren-
bach. He described most mn.tely the
exact location and condition of every
thing in the office, and then gave way to
e. F. Schultz, an employe of Hoffman,
Rothschild & Co., who stated that Figel
left the store on the evening of June 1st
at 5:45 p. III. Before leaving, he told the
witness that he had lost his key to the
side entrance on Battery street.
E. F. Schultz testified that although
he had worked for Isaac Hoffman for
eight years. and had been very intimate
with his employer, he had never known
of the dead merchant carrying weapon.
Witness was positive that Hoffman had
never carried a pistol He testified his
relations with Figel had always been
cordial, and stated that he had fire..
quently lent Figel money. Witness
stated that Rothschild, one of the part
ners, had never approved of Figel, and
mad informed witness since Hoffman's
death when he came into the firm tha I
he wished Figel discharged. Polio =

BUJA WAS FAST
Put On an Extra Spur at the
Finish

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10.-A war
rant was issued today for the arrest of
Nicholas Buja, cashier for the firm of
Scatena & Sons, wholesale fruit dealers
and commission merchants of this city,
charging him with felony en- bezzlement.
For some time past Buja has been living
a fast life and spending money at rate
that far exceeded his means, but his
employers trusted him implicitly and
his defalcations might never have been
discovered, had he not attempted to de-
stroy the evidence of his crime by
throwing the firms cash book and ledger
into the bay. Unfortunately for him,
they floated into the hands of a fisher
man, who promptly returned them to
the office. Buja, who saw the man bring
them into the store, fled by rear door
and has not since been seen. The amount
of his peculatiors is not known, but it
will probably reach into the thousands.
The specific charge against him is the
embezlement of $7700 on July 22d.

CONROY CURED
A New York Uxoricide Executed by
Electricity

DANNEMO ORA, N. Y, Aug. 10.-Frank
c. Conroy, the Ogdensburg wife mur-
derer, was executed by electricity at
Clinton prison today. Conroy was pro-
nounced dead four and half minutes
after the first shock. He walked be-
tween Fathers Belanger and Cotter until
supported to the chair, his eyes upon the
crucifix and praying. He met his fate
calmly.
On the morning of May co. 1896, Frank
Conroy returned to his home in Ogdens-
burg from Montreal. Walking into the
house he accused his wife of unfaith-
fulness. Angered at her denials, he
snatched up carving knife and hacked
her head, and throat until she was dead.
His two little daughters, aged S and Z,
witnessed the murder.

Mining company has been ordered trans

of the Ninth district. The suit involves
rights to the waters of Brandy creek,

needs the water for hydraulic mining,
having built expensive bitches to the
source of supply. Williams has been

OFFICERS PUZZLED
Little Evidence in the Schofield Muir
der Case

SAN JOSE, Aug. 10.-Mrs. Schofield
maintains her non-committal position
regarding the murder Of her. husband
Irving Mann still declares that after
the shooting Schofield expressed no
opinion as to who fired the shot at night
On the morning of the murder Mrs. Scho-
field said the same thing, but later stated
that he accused Budd Mann. The shot
gun found by Schofield's body was not
cooked. The officers are suspicious OF
the orderly manner in which everything
was arranged when they arrived on the
scene. No new evidence has been dis
covered, and ex-District Attorney Schei
Ter, who is acting for Mrs Schofield, says
the defendants will be discharged on
their preliminary examination.
John butcher, the hired man, Is not
in the local Jail. He is said to be in the
custody of the Madrone consta BILE.
District Attorney Harrington left here
today ostensibly to hunt in Monterey
county, but there is rumor that he will
try and induce butcher to confess.
Clark Johnson, who was arrested in
Fresno, was discharged today, on prov
inf that he was in that city when the
murder was committed.
