Collector Dillon iii.

This morning while at breakfast Col.
lector Dillon remarked to his son Hsr-
ry that he felt i'll. He, however, went
to his office but soon after nine O'Clock
he announced to Chief Deputy Clark
that he felt SO i'll that he would have
to 60 to his .room. Upon reaching
his room he sent out
for his family physician. DR.. Race,
who when he arrived found the patient
suffering from severe pains brought on
by an irregularity of the kidneys.
An Opiate was administered hypo.
dermicslly and the patient soon drop
ped to sleep.
About half past eleven the family
felt that Mr.. Dillon was not breathing
properly and at once summoned DR..
Race again. Upon arrival the physi-
cian found that the patient was in q
serious condition and other physicians
were summoned to his aid
An hour and a half was spent in re-
storing respiration by artificial
means before the efforts Of the physi-
clans were rewarded by favorable signs
Of'restOring consciousness.
A half hour later he was rest
ing easy and as the HERALD goes to
press his condition is such as to en-
hope for his speedy re-
cOvery.
Seven years ago DR.. Race was called
down the G. 81. line sto attend Mr..

FOR ALLEGED MURDER
The Negro Was Hung Up And
Left For Dead, Cut Down,
Revived, And Lynched
Again.

MONTICELLO, Ca, Dec. Sake
Glover, negro, charged with
participation in the murder of Joseph
Pope, q white boy, here several weeks
ago, was taken from Jail Tuesday night
and lynched outside of town by large
mob.
Not more than three weeks ago Ed
Merriweather, q negro who had been
suspected of the crime, was taken from
Jail aud hanged. Before dying he
implicated Glover, 1t is said.
A mob made for the Jail, secured Glow
er,and strung him up, leaving him for
dead. Later on the body was cut down
by the authorities, life revived, and
the negro, weak from the awful torture
to which he had been subjected, placed
In Jail to await trial.
This time, however, the mob made
sure. They stretched Glover's neck
over limb.and put enough lead into
him to make sure of the complete ex-
tinction of life.

QUESTION
In Congress Will Perhaps Be
The Nicaragua Canal
Matter.
ENGLAND IRRlTATES
Because She Seems To Be
Disposed To Take Adyan-
tage Of Our Close
Friendship.

LONDON, Dec. 8.-No one would
wish to predict a clash between Eng
land and the United States over the
question as to who is going to control
the Nicaraguan canal. Britishers
however feel strongly that Great
Britain has q sound claim to part con-
troll of the proposed waterway, and
that the Clayton Bulwer treaty is still
binding.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-The Nicara-
guam Canal question is coming strongly
to the front, and promises to be one of
the leading questions in congress this
winter. The anxiety of the British to
get in on the ground floor,
as expressed by the London press,
causes some irritation here, as En-
glands friendship for this country
during the recent war is showed under
our noses as an argument for the joint
control of the proposed canal.

FARMERS CONGRESS
Will Probably Close Tomorrow.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Dec. S.-The
sessions of the third day of the Farm
ers' National Congress we're cut short
in order to allow the visitors an oppor-
tunity of inspecting the poultry and
pet stock show now in progress. At
the regular afternoon session two ad-
dresses. of interest were listened
to and discussed by the con-
gross. One, delivered by II. G. Adams,
state dairy and food commissioner OF
Wisconsin, discussed the legitimacy of
pure food legislation. The second
treated of the inter-dependence of the
cattle industry on the farm and ranch
and was delivered by A. P. Bush, Jr.,
president of the Cattle Rsisers' As
ISOLATION of Texas. The congress will
probably conclude it's work tomorrow.

L. A. w. THREATENED
With Loss of Control Over Racing

NEW YORK, Dec. S.-The supremacy
of the L. A, w. in the control of cycle
racing next season is likely to be still
further threatened as q result of a con-
ference of "secessionists" and promi-
nent riders and race managers
which is being held today at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel. The meet
ing is in response to call
issued last week, the purpose of which
is "to consider the sdvlsability of tax
ing preliminary steps toward the
formation of body to assume control
of cycle racing in the states east of the
Mississippi river, with the exception
of Louisiana, such body to direct the
sport as soon as organized, or at such
time as may be decided upon"
The new organization will be known
rs the National Cycling association.
1t is proposed to divide the new asso-
citation into five districts to make its
affairs more easily managed, and
to form alliances with the Southern
Cycling association, Western Cycling
association, and California associated
Cycling Clubs, thereby covering the
entire country. In view of the formid
able strength already manifested by
the new movement 1t Is not improbable
that the l.. A. w. will decide at an
early date to abandon all further at
tempts to control racing.

Although several cases of smallpox
were discovered by the authorities in
the Mexican quarters yesterday but
few OF them we're new ones, mo st

been discovered several days ago and
also the fact that number of
cases have existed of which
the authorities never knew.
The danger Of an epidemic has now
probably passed from the fact that the
house to house canvass which should
have been made month ago will bring
to light every case. The pest house
will be ready tomorrow or Saturday to
receive all patients and they can be
removed, the quarters they occupy
fumigated, and the disease entirely
stamped out of the .city in q couple of

All the cases discovered yesterday

most OF them on or near Seventh street

stated sthe Mexicans themselves do
not feel any alarm about this disease.
