WANTED REVENGE
A Young Chicago Tough Kills the
Wrong Man


CHICAGO, May 30.-Albert Wall, II years
old, was deliberately killed by Thomas
II. Dean in front of the Phoenix Hotel
After a short chase by crowd of men
and boys Dean was arrested and locked up.
The prisoner refuses to talk.
In the afternoon Thomas Dean, with his
brother, William, were on their way to a
meeting, and while passing the Phoenix
Hotel had words with crowd of boys
who were standing there. William Dean
says that the crowd attacked them, and
during the struggle the brothers were
badly cut and bruised. Fearing that they
would be beaten the two brothers drew re-
volvers and retreated under cover.
William Dean took his brother to his
house and there they changed their blood
stained shirts. In the evening they went
to the theater. While walking homeward
Thomas Dean told his brother that he must
be avenged for the assault upon him. Both
started off to find the boys who assaulted
them. Thomas took the lead and passed
in front of the Phoenix Hotel. Several
boys were standing there, and among them
was Albert Wall. Nothing was said as
the brothers passed. Thomas Dean asked
Wall to step aside for a moments con-
versation. Wall did so. Dean accused
Wall of assauting him, and in return said
that he had never seen Dean before, and
he was visiting friends on the North Side
during the afternoon. Dean then drew
his revolver and said:
"You are the boy that assaulted me-"
instantly shooting and Wall fell to the
sidewalk dead, having been shot behind
the left ear. The Dean brothers started
to run away, but were chased and captured
by the spectators.

The Home Guard Willing to Shed Its
Blood but Only at Los Angeles

The contemplated home guard of sharp
shooters connected with the Turnverein
Germania is making but slow progress in
getting organized. A minority of intend
ing members met last night but failed to
do anything. A score or SO were willing to
sign the roll to be forwarded to the adju-
tant general, but several others held back,
not from lack of patriotism or want of
sympathy with the United States. but Tor
fear that in the event of the states accept
ing their services as an Independent COM
pany they might be called upon to do duty
or fight away from home.
These men have ties here which preclude
their leaving their families or interests and
they are unwilling to sign any papers
which might turn out to be an obligation
to leave Los Angeles and march to the
front. They want to be strictly what the
name implies-a home guard. AS one man
put 1t tersely, 81 am for this country will
irg to defend it here and shed my blood
right in Los Angeles for the Stars and
Stripes, but I'll be goll-darned If want to
have it run out of my body at NIilpitas or
Sausalito." At the next meeting, how
ever, it is expected that so many will sign
the roll that the sharpshooters will be able
to organize.

Proved Her Nationality by Running
Away

KEY WEST, May 30, $3.50 a.m.-The un-
known steamer supposed to be Spanish
auxiliary cruiser, sighted by the Whining
ton and Bancroft about fifteen miles off
Key West early on Thursday evening, was
not captured. The Bancroft gave up the
chase.
The Wilmington first sighted the strang-
'er, it now appears, and was about to steam
after her, when the Bancroft came along
and asked If she had seen anything OF a
four-masted steamer with yellow smoke
stack. The Wilmington told her of the
unknown vessel she had just observed
which had three masts and one smoke
stack, and the Bancroft started in pursuit
The stranger put on all steam when she
saw she was being chased and made off at
a 16-knot clip She had too big lead on the
Bancroft, and the latter, after chasing her
for an hour and half, gave it up. Just
before the Bancroft abandoned the pur-
suit, however. the unknown hoisted her
colors, but night was falling and the gun
boat was unable to make them out. The
officers of the Bancroft believe the ship
they chased was British vessel and that 1t
was the British flag which was displayed,
but they cannot account for her running
away.
During the chase the Bancroft held up a
number of ships. which were released after
establishing their neutrality.

DEWEY's VICTORY
Bringc Hope Of Profit to the Rope
Manufacturers

NEW YORK, May 3O.-The World today
says: The war has revived the rope in
dustry in this country, and Rear Admiral
Dewey's signal victory at Manila has put
the American manufacturers In the way Of
making fortunes.
Manila was, outside of Mexico, the main
supply for raw material. and since Ad-
miral Dewey has closed that port prices
have suddenly doomed up from S1a cents a
pound to S1a cents for raw Manila hemp.
There is no chance to purchase Manila
hemp for future shipments, which is usu-
ally done when prices are normal.
With Dewey's victory, men In the cordage
business saw wealth looming up. A score
of companies throughout the United State
are in the hands of receivers and all of
these corporations expect 90 clear up all
Indebtedness and start anew.
While there is not a great stock of Man
liza hemp in this country, the manufactur-
ers can secure sisal hemp from Mexico.
Besides, the manufacturers have stocks
of rope on hand and they have already put
up prices fully 200 per cent.
The talk of forming a combination among
the manufacturers has not yet gone beyond
the point of discussion of the way and
means of bringing about such combina-
ton. The manufacturers maintain that the
failures of all previous combinations were
caused by the impossibility of controlling

VOLUNTEERS AND N. g. G.
The First Brigade to Be Recruited Up
to It's Full Strength

It seems to be almost certain that the
Seventh regiment of California volunteers
will be sent to the Philippines by the next
transports that leave with troops.
Gov Budd has ordered Brig. Gen. c. F.
A. Last to open emergency rolls for the
purpose of recruiting the ranks of his brig
ade. as he believes that the N. G. C. should
be maintained, even after the 1000 men for
volunteers have been furnished, and as
there may be a demand for troops to de-
fend the coast.
The field stan and the brigade staff,
Seventh regiment band, signal corps and
Troop d cavalry will parade for revolver
target practice today at the Wanna ok
park range, East Los Angeles, under the
supervision of Maj. ]. L. A. Last, inspector
of rifle practice.
Permission to enlist in the army has
been issued by Gen. Last to the men of the
First brigade. who will be honorably dis
charged when mustered into the service of
the United States.
The company of volunteer infantry or
ganized by the Woodmen of the World
meets tonight at 143 West First street.
Complete organization and drill will be
effected.
Bert F. Tomlinson, who has for over a
year been in the employ of The Herald,
has enlisted in the Third heavy artillery
and will leave for San Francisco tonight to
be mustered in.

Lee Took a. Ride

Lee Parker. diminutive colored young
ster, went up to Officer Redfern last night
at the corner of Third and Spring streets
and announced that his home was in San
Bernardino and he was lost. Parker
claimed that a railroad engineer named
Collins had asked him yesterday morning
If he did not want to get into the cab and
take a ride. Naturally the darby accepted
the invitation and came on to this city. He
claims that the engineer left him standing
at the door while he went into a saloon to
get drink and then sneaked out of the
back door in order to loose the charge.
The lad was locked up in the care of the
matron until an investigation can be made.
The officers are very suspicious of such
cases. as their general experience has been
that the younger the child the more blood
curdlng tale he can tell. He will be
turned over to his parents as soon as thay
can be located.

At today's session of the city council the
business will be the canvassing of
the vote on the fire and bridge bonds. the
election for which was held last Thursday.
AS the vote was light and the count care

ures are expected. Inquiries for the bonds
are already pouring in upon City Clerk
Hance. They will probably be ordered adj
vertised here, at San Francisco, Chicago
and New York. The bonds will bear per
cent. They must be sold to the highest bid
der, the council having the right to reject
any or all bids. The bonds are expected to
bring a premium.

BENEFIT FOR RED PHILLIPS
Seriously Ill at the Hospital From
Thompson's Stomach Blows

Ever since his recent fight with Bob
Thompson, some two months ago, Red
Phillips, the lightweight pugilist, has been
in the hospital. Today an operation will
be performed on Phillips, and it is a ques-
ton whether he survives it.
In his fight with Thompson Phillips was
struck two right hand blows, both swings,
In the stomach, the second one knocking
him out and sending him to the hospital
Phillips was warned by physicians before
he went into the ring that a good, stiff
punch In the stomach might kill him, but
he took the chances. 1t will be remem-
bered that Phillips was unconscious for
twenty-five minutes after being counted
out, and when he came to vomited blood.
1t Is now proposed to give Red" bene-
fit. Bob Thompson, his late antagonist, is
heading the affair and working harder
than he ever did for himself to make it
success. If Phillips survives the opera
ton today he will need excellent care, and
the money from the benefit will come in
mighty handy" AS soon as all arrange
ments are made a full announcement of
the program will follow
