WAS ANACTOF TREACHERY
THIS OPINION STILL PREVAILS IN
HAVANA.
Court of Inquiry Now in Washington
Administration Playing for Time
War May Yet be Declared.

The very latest from the Maine dis
aster was received from Havana on
February 22nd. \ dispatch states:
Americans have begun to leave
for home. BY the advice of General
Lee many left Cuba today for Key
West All the others will go within
few days. War is now considered
certain i'm the very near future. The
naval experts inquiring into the eN-
plosion of the Maine leave Saturday.
General Lee will probably go with
them. The Maine was destroyed by
treachcrN. While the news is not of
fetal, it can he depended upon. The
naval experts here all believe that II
Spanish fanatic blue up the American
war vessel These facts are known
i'm Washington. When this news has
leaked out here is likely to be seri-
GUS trouble here. There may be an
other riot. This is the explanation of
General Lees advice to American fam
lilies to go home while there is yet am
pie time
simultaneously with the announce
ment of the finding of the battered
siN-inch and ten-inch shells on the
Maine still intact. the announcement
is made that the findings of the Board
of Inquiry ON the Maine disaster will
not be given out until after the Board
returns to the United States.
Obviously, these powder cases would
not be as they are had they passed
through the sudden heat and fierce
shock of the magazine explosion. On
the other hand. they would be in just
the condition they are had an eXter-
nal force ruptured the magazine and
jammed the powder cans against each
other and the bent walls.
\ battered powder can for the six
inch gun was discovered. The copper
casting was denied and the whole
thing showed that it had been sub
iected to extreme pressure and many
blows. but it had not exploded. This
was regarded as proof positive that
the small magazine in which such am
munition was stored had not blown
up.
Today an almost identical discovery
was made in reference to the big mag
azine forward. \ can for the ten
inch gun was recovered near the for
ward magazine. 1t was even more ST.
verely shattered than the smaller can.
The siX-fnch casing is supposed to
be one of half dozen or so that were
kept in small magazine with the sa-
luting powder for immediate use. The
ten-inch shell, on the other hand, was
undoubtedly from the Names forward
magazine. So far the circumstantal
evidence points directly away from
any theory of accident
Tremendous importance is attach
ed to the finding of the powder cans.
When each one was discovered it was

.SUTRO MAY
 NOW RECOVER Hope Held Out for the
 Ex-MayOr. RETURN OF MENTAL WG0R
RETURN OF MENTAL VIGOR
HAS RECENTLY SHOWN MUCH
 IMPROVEMENT.
What Was Supposed to Be an Incur able Mental Malady May Prove to Be Temporary Ail-
 ment.

The relatives of x-Mayor Adolph Su- tro are rejoicing over the possibility now held forth that the old gentleman may wholly recover from the malady from which he has been suffering. Dur ing the past few days he has regained to some extent the use of his mental faculties, and this fact has given added strength to the belief that he will in the near future be in the enjoyment of his normal mental vigor.
 Those who have watched over the ex- Mayor since he was stricken down many months ago say that the i'm provement In his health dates from the time he was taken from Sutro Heights to the home of his daughter, Dr. Emma Merritt, on Van Ness avenue, a few weeks ago. Yesterday the invalid was sufficiently strong to leave his couch and sit by the window to watch the passing of a body of troops on their way to the camp at the old Bay Dis trict track. He also sent to the Heights for one of his confidential servants and discussed with him the details of some business affair, to which his mind has been blank for long period.
 The physicians who have been in at- tendance on the ex-Mayor have all along believed that his malady was in- curable. The favorable change in his condition that has occurred within the past few days Is therefore hailed with much rejoicing by his friends and rela- lives

A SIGNIFICANT VISIT.
F. A. Wadleigh of the Rio Grande Railway Will Take a Hand in
 the Rate War

An arrival which appears to be of spe- cfal significance In railroad circles at the present time Is that of F. A WadIeigh general passenger agent of the Rio Grande and Western Railway, who came in on the overland on Sunday from Salt Lake City and registered at the Palace.
 Though MT. Wadleigh was extremely reticent about the purport of his visit, saying that it was merely for pleasure, still It IS believed that he has come to have conference with the Southern Pa cine passenger officials, having for it's object the reduction of second class rates via the Ogden gateway. MT. Wadleigh said that he was unaware that the South ern Pacific had cut second class rates via Mojave. El Paso and New Orleans until informed of it by W. H. Snedaker. who lcally that he had not come with the ob- Ject of inducing the Southern Pacific to include the rouungs via ogden in the re- auctions, although he said candidly: 'I will go and see MT. Goodman. the general passenger agent of the Southern Pacific &99I52 company, and have talk with him. 9 tween the two officials will be is not known. but it will most probably be on the lines just mentioned.
 What appears to have been the diffi- culty all along in the cutting of rates via Ogden has been the declaration of the Southern Pacific Company to it's Ogden ton Tn rates 1t would exact a higher per centage as it's share of the haul to Og- den For instance, at present 1t receives 46 per cent on $40, the rate to points on the Missouri River, thus making it's pro portion of the haul to Ogden SIS 40 If the rates to go into effect on June were to apnly via Ogden it would only get s9 20 as its share. This has been the bone of contention and it is expected that Mr VI, adi,elgh ,e ls may arrange some. way out of the difficulty, and so allow his line and others out of Ogden to participate in the increased business derived by the reduc- tion of rates. and bitter fight with the Canadian Pacific will be the result

A Pioneer at Rest.

It is seldom that the passing of a pioneer of this State has brought out more genuine expressions of sorrow than that of the late William Murphy, whose fun eral took place from Ocean View on Sun day. It was the largest cortege that ever went from that locality to Holy Cross Cemetery. The deceased lived and reared family in the house where he died and consequently for more than twenty years he was known to all the country round- about. He was generous to a fault and counted every one as his friend. He leaves widow and four children. pretty tribute was paid to his memory by Father Cooper of St. Michaels Church
 The deceased was g years of age and came to California almost directly from Ireland when but a boy. He was mar rted in this State and has never left 1t since his arrival. He was fond of dogs and his principal diversion from business was in coursing. The only society that MT. Murphy belonged to was the Order of Foresters of America He was a member of Court Farallone. The pail bear CTS were: John D. Daly, Martin Fragley. Senator J. D: Burns. E. B. Lastick Jr., W H. Kenney, Walter Van Bergen, Emmett Sullivan and F. S. Casserly.
