PLOT TO INJURE MARIETTA
Minister II. l.. Wilson of Chile Frus-
trated the Spanish scheme.

New York, April l5.-It is stated that
there was plot here to injure the United
States gunboat Marietta while she was in
this port, says the Valparaiso correspond.
ent OF the Herald.
Just prior to the arrival of the Mari
eta the United States consulate in Val
paraiso was informed by trustworthy per.
sons that an attempt against the gun
boat was contemplated by Spanish sub
jects in Chile. Immediately upon receipt
of this information the United States, MIR
Henry l.. Wilson, Consul John f. Caples
and Vice Consul August Muller, Jr., call
ed upon the governor of the province and
laid the matter before him. This explains
the unexpected trip of the United States
minister from Santiago 10 Valparaiso.
Once acquainted with the fears of the
American representatives and the facts in
the case the government Immediately
gave assurance that the city and mari
time authorities would take precaution
to protect the Marietta, and extended
through the minister, cordial welcome
to the officers and seamen
During the stay of the Marietta no
greater vigilance could have been exer.
cised by the Chilean authorities had the
safety of one of their own warshps de-
pended upon them Before the gunboat
vice consul, accompanied by Captain Sy.
monds Of the Marietta, called upon the
governor and on behalf of the united

LASHED IN THEIR BEDS.
Ffend Attempts to Murder n Woman
and Children at Butte.

Butte, Mont, April ia ficndsh at.
tempt was made at o'clock yesterday
morning to burn alive Mrs. Marian Kelly
and her two daughters, while asleep in
their house in South Butte.
According to the woman's story man
broke into the house, and as she arose
to investigate he overpowered her and ap-
piled cloth saturated with chloroform
to her face until she became unconscious.
He then tied her hands and feet and
lashed her to the bed. The fiend then
poured coal oil on the bed clothes, set
fire to them and escaped.
The fire aroused Mrs. Kelly and with
an effort she tore herself loose and ran
from the house before the would-be
murderer had left, he being engaged in
setting fire to other parts of the house.
The woman's screams brought the
neighbors to her assistance and the flames
were put out. The children escaped unin.
jured, but Mrs. Kelly was badly burned
about the arms and breast.
Cyrus Bell, a young miner, has been ar
rested as perpetrator Of the outrage. The
cause for the attempt to murder is sup
posed to be the refusal of Mrs. Kelly to
marry him. About year ago the woman
came from San Francisco to marry Bells
brother, but the latter broke his prom.
ises and Bell wanted TO take his place.

BIG INCREASE OF THE NAVY.
All Four American Liners-More
Warships and Torpedo BOats.

Washington, April l6.-Several import
ant and decisive steps in the work of war
preparations were taken by the navy de-
partment yesterday. 1t was decided to
assign the naval reserves of New York
New Jersey, Massachusetts,, Maryland
and Michigan to the five auxiliary cruis-
els, hereafter to be known as patrol boats
The uqestion of the American line steam
ers was also wound up today at the direc-
tion to charter all four of them-the ST.
Louis, st. Paul, Paris and New York
With the announcement that these
magnificent ships had been added to the
auxiliary fleet came the statement that
the department also had purchased the
Yorktown of the Old Dominion line and
the Yumuii of the Ward line. But OF
greater moment than any Of these devel-
opments was the reopening of negotia-
tions for the purchase of two warships
and several torpedo boats from Chile and
Argentina. One of the cruisers is the
Chilean cruiser O'Higgins, just completed
at an English yard and regarded as one
of the most formidable Of her class afloat.
These negotiations are being conducted
by Charles R. Flint of New York. who
has large commercial and financial inter
ests in both countries.
Orders have been issued to the naval
reserves of Massachusetts. Maryland,
New York and New Jersey to hold them
selves in readiness for duty on patrol
ships, but the militia will not actually
go into service aboard the ships until it is
certain that hostilities are to ensue
