CREED TRIES
 TO TAKE LIFE
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAUSALITO. July 6.-Ex-Marshal John E. Creed came again to the fore as prominent fighter in another fra cas over the bedrooms, and as usual his ever-ready revolver played a prom inent role. In an altercation at about o'clock this morning with M A. Hughes and Teddy" Alexander Creed fired a shot, but his arm was struck up by a cane in the hands of Hughes and what probably would have proved a tragedy was thereby averted.
 The accounts given by the various persons interested conflict in many points, but the general trend of the story is about the same. The two men were passing Broyer, Glynn & Hum- phreys' establishment, where Creed Is acting as night watchman. He says he was awakened by their tearing down the Fourth of July decorations over the door. while both the others assert that they only tapped the wall lightly in passing. Creed came out of the door way with an oath, and Alexander threatened to thrash him. The ex Marshal jumped inside the doorway and thrust his revolver through the aperture.
 Hughes caught the gleam of the WedpOH III liIIle to SITlhe STeeu aTlll and when the revolver exploded the bullet passed harmlessly upward.
 The disturbance awakened many people in the vicinity, but the two men passed on and few knew the real cause until to-day. When Trustee Sylva heard of it this evening he said Creed would be arrested tomorrow.
 Hughes says Creed threatened to kill him only few days ago.
 In consequence of this trouble the poolroom disturbance has taken a new lease of life and the Town Trustees are making another effort to oust the rival San Mateo faction. A communication signed by Trustee A. Sylva, J. Thomas and L. J. Ambjornsen was at once sent to General Dickinson, requesting board to inform the Western Union Telegraph Company that the firm con- sisting of Glynn, Broyer, Humphreys and probably others is conducting poolroom business without a license and in defiance of law and requesting the company's aid in suppressing the firm by refusing to give it telegraphic communication. General Dickinson, it is asserted on good authority, has written to Superintendent Jaynes, men, tioning the communication received from his fellow members of the board and stating that the action of Glynn. Broyer and Humphreys in disobeying the mandate of the board has led to trouble and turmoil. The superin- tendent is asked not to support these men in the commission of a crime by supplying telegraphic service.
 From this 1t would appear that the town is about to go through another poolroom campaign.

 Quartermaster General Ludington Is going to sell the first bale of cotton grown in the United States this year for the benefit of the United States hospital service, now so severely taxed by the war. A day or two ago Presi- dent Mckinley received from H. and B. Beer of New Orleans the following let ter:
 we express to-day to you the first bale of cotton of the new crop, to be disposed of in such a manner as you see fit, for the benefit of the hospital fund"
 The President sent this note to the War Department with instructions to accept the cotton. The cotton will be forwarded to New York, where it will be auctioned off toward the end of the week. The expectation is that the cot ton will bring a fancy figure, in view of the use to which the money is des- tined,

 MADRID, July 6.-The popular yer sion to-day Is that Cervera was bought by the Yankees and offered no resist ance, and that the one American killed died of delight at seeing the Spanish squadron sunk.

RunOrs of Peace Over lures Have No Weight
 at Washington.
Madrid Greatly Excited and ( Cabinet Crisis Almost Hourly
 Threatened.

NEW YORK, July 6.-The Herald's S Washington correspondent telegraphs: No official confirmation has been re- ceived here of the report from Madrid by way of London that the Spanish Government realizes the hopelessness of continuing the war against the United States and will sue for peace. Any overtures from Spain would be gladly received by the administration, and If reasonable terms should be pro- posed they would be accepted. There is no desire on the part of the admins tration to unduly prolong the war, and while 1t is not believed that Spain is yet ready to ask for peace, 1t is hoped that she will do so in the near future and thus avoid further bloodShed. It is not to be inferred that the war is to be prosecuted any less vigorously on ac- count Of the hope of the administration for early peace; on the contrary, the President and his advisers realize that the best way to bring about that result Is to follow up the destruction of Ger vera's fleet by other crushing blows against the Spanish military and naval forces.
 Naturally the President and his Cabi- net do not wish to give any official or semi official indications of what terms they would be disposed to accept from Spain at this time. but 1 am able to state that if the Spanish Government should ask the United States to ter minate the war with the understanding that Spain was to give up Cuba at once. cede Porto Rico to the United States and allow this Government to retain possession of the Ladrone Islands and to retain a coaling station and other rights in the bay of Manila it is prob able that the administration would be willing to restore the Philippines to Spain if it should be found to be prac-
