MoToRMAN's NARROW ESCAPE.
Bohemians Incensed at the Killing of n
Boy by Trolley Car.

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec. 25.-Geo. Il. Den
mark, years old, was killed by trolley
car on Throop and Eighteenth streets
this afternoon. Fred Bernier, motorman,
was threatened with lynching for killing
the boy, and was with great difficulty res
cued from n mob of Bohemians who, in
censed at the terrible accident, surround
ed the car and dragged Bernier from the
platform, determined to hang him. After
the boy had been killed Motorman Ber-
nier took refuge in the car, which stood
within few feet of where the boy was
killed. In an instant ii was besieged by
angry men. He attempted to keen them
out by latching the doors on the inside,
but they broke the door in, knocking him
down, and kicked and beat him for few
moments in a shocking manner. He
managed, however, to get away from
them and ran to the door of n drug store,
where he was handed a pistol and was
admitted inside by the proprietor before
any further harm befell him.
The crowd surged around the door, yell
ing: Break II in; break it in; kill him I;
kill him."
1t looked for a minute as If the store
would be raided, but the proprietor, Mr..
Kvitek, brought out a winchester rifle,
and pointing II ut the door threatened that
the first man who entered would drop
dead. The crowd heard what he said
and fell back. In the meantime Mr..
Kvitek had reached his telephone. He
called on the Maxwell station first for an
ambulance, but by that time matters had
got so warm that he requested n patrol
wagon. In few moments the wagon
brought Policemen BruHson and Murray,
Theme, Duffy, Norwich and Wallace,
who did all they could to quiet the mob.
When some degree of quiet had been re-
stored the police arrested the endangered
men and took them to the station. There
the men seemed unconcerned and declined
to make a statement. There were many
versions given of the accident.

Do not attempt to land men or munitions

The orders caused sensation. A con-
sultation was held Immediately in the
cabin by Capt. John O'Brien, Navigation
Capt. Lewis, Maj. Perez Morales, COM
mander of the land expedition and Lieut.
Col. Calvo, sea commander. Gen. De
Arms was called in. Nearly every officer
aboard had warned the junta that it
would be useless to attempt to land an
expedition near the San Juan river. The

Spanish coaster while the cargo of the
Dauntless, after having been put ashore,
was captured.
But what was there to be done? The
steamer had stolen away from the United
States and had already covered three
fourths of the distance to her ordered
destination. She had weathered heavy
storms and was staunch. Her crew was
a picked one and the soldiers aboard were
brave and determined.
1--WE will land at the San Juan IL we
have to steal through hell to do it," said
Capt. Lewis.
keep good head on, but don't waste
any coal,' was the word sent down to
Chief Engineer Dunn. When fifty miles
south of the cape the course was changed
to north by northeast against dead
wind When night fell we were thirty
miles from land following an easterly d.
rection. Saturday morning was clear
and beautiful. The vessel was placed
under a small head of steam and went
easily in a clam sea.
On the PROV, night glass in hand, stood
Capt. Lewis, Maj. Arnas and Engineer
Baglchi. The remainder of the eXpedi-
ton gathered along the rails on the port
side as the vessel steamed almost into
the shadow of the rock cliffs. When the
filibusterer was within 400 yards of the
shore the engineer discovered moving
object in the darkness under the lee, and
informed Capt. Lewis that he saw a
coaster. Without further ado the fill
buster turned swiftly to starboard and
pointed for the open sea. Few persons
aboard had seen the Spaniard. Capt.
O'Brien, after allowing his ship to
scamper 300 or 400 yards, hove to and
backed towards the mouth Of San Juan.
In a minute more the black shape of a
40-foot coaster was seen darting out in
our direction. Away steamed the fill
buster and behind, emerging from the
shadow along the shore, came the coaster.
For few minutes the exciting race con-
tinued and then came a fash Of light
from the Spaniard. A second later
came the crack of two-pounders, and then
there was hiss of shell few rods to
, the starboard. Word was passed that
all must fight. A few men broke open
the rifle and cartridge boxes and soon
| the entire party was armed. Sharp
shooter German stationed his rifemeh
upon the storm rail upon the upper deck.
Mai Morales was in charge. Again
came flash from the coaster, and anoth-
or solid shot spashed in the water sever
al rods nearer the vessel. Pursued and

XMAS AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

Washington, Dec. 25.-Christmas was
celebrated in a joyous manner at the
White House. The children. not only of
the president, but of the entire cabinet
circle, held high carnival in the White
House library. A noble fir tree stood in
the center of the big semi-circular room,
SO tall that it touched the lofty ceiling,
and SO thick and broad that 1t almost fill-
ed the large room. Until late In the night
many willing hands had worked under
Mrs. Clevelnnd's direction in beautifying
this Christmas tree, and as 1t stood this
morning, when the bright sun of Christ
mas day shOne upon its tinsel and gilt
ends, sparkled on the artificial snow and
the pendant icicles and betrayed some
pretty toy or knicknack concealed In the
thick foliage, it was tree worthy of the
White House. The children were early
awake-up, indeed, even before most OF
the servants, and were soon gloating over
the presents that lay piled up around the
their stockings, which were generously
filled by Santa Claus. After breakfast
the visitors began to arrive, children Of
the members of the cabinet, and the days
enjoyment was fairly begun. There were
presents for each of the little ones from
Mrs. Cleveland, and in turn most OF the
visitors brought pretty tokens of remem-
brance for the Cleveland children.
The president and Mrs. Cleveland ex.
changed presents, as has been their prac-.
tice ever since their marriage, and all Of
the employees of the White House receiv-
ed appropriate useful tokens Of esteem.
At the Holy Catholic Trinity church,
in which Signor Martcnilli, the papal del

WHISKY CAUSED TROUBLE.

Tangipahoa, La, Dec 25.-The killing
of w. b. Davidson by Monroe Bambert.
and the accidental wounding of negro
boy by a fusilade fired by drunken men
at the time of the killing, and the subse-
quent shooting Of young Payne by Alex
ander Martin last night, Is the general
subject Of conversation here today. Whis-
ky caused the trouble.
At 3 o'clock this morning A. NJ. Add
son, operator and agent Of the Illinois
Central railroad at Wesson, was killed by
Jack and Luther Case. The Case boys
were creating disturbance IN the ladies'
waiting room, and when Addison attempt

mnrderers were arrested.
