FIVE miles from the coast, San Pablo
bay being the the nearest point on the
Pacific coast. From the Gulf side the
nearest point is Mulege, the capital Of
the district which is nearly one hun
dred miles from tho placers. the latter
being about directly west of the town.
Santa Rosalia is about one hundred
and twenty five miles from the dig
gings.
The first authentic news was brought
to San Diego by Allen G. Frazer of
Los Angeles, who came up with $S, 600.
Since then 200 ounces have been re-
ceived by the local banks and firms OF
San Diego. For the past seven or eight
years Indians have brought gold TO
Ensenrda and other coast points and it
has been mystery where the gold
came from. There is now no .doi.bt
that the gold came from the new dag
gings. The latest news from the camp
reports some five hundred men there,
mostly MeXicans. 1t is claimed that
they are taking out from Sl2 to SIS per
day. The placers cover an area of
about twenty five miles square,, I'd
are about one thousand feet above sea
level.
The Excitement at San Diego is in
tense and the transportation COM
panies are overwhelmed with applica
tons for passage. Many small sailing
craft are being fitted out for the mines
Several mining companies have already
been organized and many business men
are going TO the placers. Several of
the mines on the peninsula are almost
deserted by the employees vino have
gone to the new camp.
The Cerro Pinto placers can be reach
ed more quickly from Tucson than
from San Diego, aS the first four hum
dred miles from Tucson can be made
in ten hours by the way of Benson and
Nogales 10 Guaymas. From there one
can go almost rirectly across the
gulf to Mulege or to Santa ROsajil and
thence from either place overland to
the placer5. The expense of fare by
rail und steamer would probably not
| exceed $50 American money. How
ever with the prospects around Tucson
it is not probable that many will 80

CHOYNsKI WAS DRUGGED.
Latest Story of the Battle With Nc
Coy at San EranciscO.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, April 90
Startling disclosures are made in con-
nection with the recent Mccoy -Choynski
twenty-round fight. 1t was learned from
person who knows ChoynSkis family
we'll that the fighter was out Of his mind
for two days after his battle, and that
both he and his relatives We're convinced
afterwards that he had been drugged. 1t
is said that Joe accuses one who was
supposed to be his bosom friend Of
double-dealing.
The story was whispered around after
the fight among certain few people, but
Choynski succeeded In having it sup
pressed, as he foresaw that a "holler
after defeat would not look we'll The
yarn gained publicity today, however,
and 1t has caused a big commotion
among followers of the pugilistic game
Just what part Mccoy played in the
alleged plot or whether he played any at
all Is not known Circumstances in con-
nection with the fight are a bit peculiar
a physician and declared to be unable to
stand the strain Of a single round
Choynskt was never in better condition.
Yet Mccoy outpointed and outfought
him. Many critics at the ringside said
ChoynSk was not himself.
The story goes that Joe was drugged
with choral put in his whisky flask. IT
is said that this drug when used moder-
ately is not dangerous, but that it has
the effect of making the victim ''dopey."
He is able to work mechanically, but his
mental capabilities are blunted. So in
this way it may be seen that Choynsh
could easily have gone through the fight
and spectators been none the wiser.

could not say which,
Gen. Rios. who was ignorant Of the fate
of Lieut.. Gilmore and his companions,
Is greatly surprised that the Americans
should have been attacked. Gen. Rios
said that last January he had tried to
notify the garrison at -Baler that the
Span1sh-American war was ended and so
arranged with Aguina1do to send a lieu
tenant in the Spanish army with the mes
sage. He was to be- accompanied by Fill
ipinos. He was never heard Of after
ward. Gen. Rios said he supposed that
the garrison at Balere had either refused
to accept the message as authentic, sus-
pecting treachery. or that the young Of
ficer had been killed by the Filipinos.
GEN. RIOS SURPRISED.
Gen. Rios was greatly surprised at
Lieut.. Standley's story Of seeing Span
ish flag flying over the church, and said
that the only explanation he could offer
was that the garrison still believed Spain
was at war with America. If the Span
iards attacked the launch he said 1t was
because of the ignorance Of the treaty of
peace on the part Of the Spaniards, and
because they were not aware Of the York
towns mission. Still, he said that he be-
lieved the launch had been attacked by
insurgents, as the besieged Spaniards

what university is ths?" yelled Capt.
Geier, of the Colts, to Commander Glen
alvin, of the Veteran Saints, yesterday
Al Lexington park as the younger ele-
ment of the St Paul club put it all over
the older. The game was a very spirited
affair, for blood, from start to finish
Denzer pitched for the Vets and was
pounded at will by the Colts, while Pat
terson, who pitched for the Colts, had
the Vets at his mercy in all innings save
two. He also batted terribly getting
a home run, two-bagger and a single
out of four times up. Schwartz and Rit-
ter both caught finely, and if Comiskey
intends keeping one of them it will be
hard picking. Clark's playing in left
reld was fine, as was his batting
Ritter started the game with a three
bagger, which was duplicated by Capt.
Butch Geier. Isbelrs sacrifice brought
IN the captain. For the Vets LaIly hit
with two out, but died at second.
Patterson hit and was brought in on
Comiskey's homer. The Vets made four
in their half on hits by Shugart, Burke,
Preston and Schwartz and Green's error.
That ended their run getting until the
ninth.
In the fourth Comiskey's hit was ad-
Vanced on Ritter's out. Geier waited for
four bad ones, lsbell brought them both
in with a corking two-bagger, and scored
himself on Clark's hit.
In the sixth, hits by Isbell Quigley,
Clarke and Abbott, coupled with errors
by Glenalvin and Shugart, netted three
more for the Colts.
Patterson's home run added one in the
seventh. s-
A base on balls to Clark and hits by Alb
bott, Isbell and Green added two in the
eighth. Two more We're made in the
ninth on hits by Patterson, Geier and
Isbell. The Vets made three in their
half of the ninth on hits by Delaney, Den
zer Burke, Glenalvin and Lally, but the
rally came to late. Score:

NOTES OF THE GAME.
Charley Delaney, of the Athletics, play
ed in right for the vets.
Young Abbott plays fine fielding game
but is a trifle light at the bat
A local amateur named Green played
short for the Colts very acceptably.
This man Quigley is a great fielder and
base runner and can place a bunt very
prettily.
The way little Butch Geier gets after
those high fouls will make some of the
Western league patrons open their eyes
this summer.
Isbels first-base play is little short of
marvellous. He gets them high or low to
the left or right They all look alike to
Isse.
Josh Clark will very likely win for
himself a steady position in Comiskey' s
outer garden, as he is fast both in the
field and at the bat.

oners. and the Spanish garrison could be
released. He said he believed that a
cruiser belonging to some neutral power
might be able to do SO. Gen. Rios said
he understood that there were 400 insur-
gents at Baler, and that they had abso-
lutte control of the river approaches.
In regard to the reported arrangements
for the exchange of the Spanish prisoners
Gen. Rios said efforts were still being
made to effect their release Gen. Rios
claims to be of the opinion that the Fill
pinos are not seeking money by holding
back the Spanish prisoners. He claims
Aguinaldo and his followers do not want
money. All they are fighting for, Rios
says, is independence. He said he thought
they were holding back the prisoners
in the hope that their retention in some
way might help the insurgent cause.

Can Cast No Light Upon the
Affair. ,etJh
MANILA, April 21.-Admiral Dewey is
determined to punish the insurgents for
the affair at Baler and to avenge the loss
of Lieut.. Gilmore and his party, If the
men are dead, or to rescue them IL they
are alive. The admiral when questioned
regarding the matter said the plans for
the expedition to Baler were still incom-
plete. but that he intended to send an ex-
pedition there which would not only re-
lease the Spanish garrison, but which
would punish the insurgents thoroughly
for the treatment they had accorded
Lieut.. Gilmore and the men of the York
town.
Admiral Dewey would not say what he
believed had been the fate of Gilmore
and the sailors. He said he supposed
they had been either killed or captured
1t could easily be seen from his manner
that he believes the American sailors
are dead. 1t is probable that the puni-
tive expedition will start within a few
days
During the interview Admiral Dewey
talked of the expedition to Baler, which
Is on the east coast Of Luzon. He said
the Yorkton was dispatched to Baler on
a mission Of mercy to rescue forty Span
ish sailors and three priests, who were
beleaguered in a church. On arriving
at Balen Lieuts. Gilmore and Standley
took fourteen sailors in a steam launch
to make soundings. The launch was
armed with machine gun.
| Lieut.. Standley landed and ascended
hill to reconnoiter, and the launch dis
appeared behind a bend in the river, con-
tinuing the soundings. Presently Stand
ley heard volley Of musketry Three
more volleys followed. and then loud
cheering. He did not hear the machine
gun at all. He tried to get to the scene
of the fighting, but could not locate the
launch. Over the brow of the hill he
could see church in the distance. A
Spanish flag was floating over it. Not
being able to see or hear more of the
Americans in the launch, he returned to
the Yorkton. A scouting party was i'm
