Denver, CoIo.. NOV. 7.-Today's election
has resulted in complete victory for the
Democratic ticket in this (Arapahoe)
county, by plurality from $4,000 to $1,000
and possibly by a clear majority. The
Silver Republican vote will not reach
$4,000 out of total Of 900 cast in the
county. The result is largely due to the
popularity of the proposition to issue
bonds for the city of Denver for the con-
structios Of a municipal water plant,
which was advocated by the Democrats
and opposed by the other arties. The
proposition carried by a large majority.
The women were very active during the
day. as well as during the campaign. Re
turns from the state are very meagre
and indicate that results are mixed. Only
county officers were voted for In this
state.

DIR. INLAY DEAD.
A Peculiar Story Connected With
the Deceased.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10. = Dr.
George B. McLay died to-day from the
effects of morphine poisoning, after
two days of suffering. 1t appears that
the doctor took morphine to induce
sleep, his nerves being shattered from
series of misfortunes in which he
was a prime factor.
The story is a peculiar one, and dates
back to June 7th, when a Mrs. Slime, a
patient of DR.. McLay, died. He signed
a certificate giving pneumonia as the
cause Of death. Later it developed
that she had died of smallpox, but not
until the body had been prepared for
burial and inferred by the Golden Gate
Undertaking Company. Two days after
the burial of Mrs Slime, H. E. Shook,
G. w. Keller and G. P. Prechter, mem
seized with the disease. Mr.. Shook died,
but the others recovered. The death
of Shook was O. sad one, and so preyed
upon the mind of his wife that she died
of a broken heart ten days later
The mistake of DR.. McLay in diagnos-
ing the case worried him so greatly
that he became a nervous wreck, and
resorted to the use of morphine to in
duce rest. Yesterday morning he was
found unconscious. Skilled physicians
were called to care for him, but their
efforts were unavailing, and he died
to-day. The theory of suicide is limited,
but little attention has been paid to it
so far.

again Mrs. Townsend outbid her COM
petitors, this time offering $1,O25 for
the box. The spirited bidding of Mrs.
Townsend created furore, and rounds
of applause greeted her efforts to in
crease the fund.
The Mayor was the highest bidder for
the third box, he making single bid
of 1000 for the privilege of occupying
the box with his friends on the after
noon of August 18th, when the mon
ster entertainment will be given.
c. B. Stone secured another box for
$3.50. Other boxes went for $225 and

SUICIDE AT SANTA ANA.
The President Of Gas Company
Ends His Life.

SANTA ANA, Aug. 10.-C. M. Holmes.
President of the Santa Ana Gas and
Electric Company, was found dead in
his bathtub this morning by Mrs.
Holmes. The gas was turned on in full
force. Yesterday Holmes telephoned
his wife from down town that he
would not be home that evening, as
he was going to Los Angeles on bust
ness. Mrs. Holmes consequently went
to neighbours to stay all night. This
morning about o'clock she went to
the house to get some clothes. Upon
going to the bathroom Holmes was
found dead in the bathtub, which was
three-quarters full Of water. Domestic
and business troubles are believed to
be the cause for the act. Holmes was
a native of Texas, but had been a resi-
dent of Santa Ana for the past twelve
years.

TROUBLED SALVADOR.
P1otters Against the Government
Placed Under Arrest.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 10.-Private
advices received here from Salvador
are to the effect that DR.. Rosa Pacas,
DR.. Interiano, Senior Meza and other
prominent residents of Santa Ana, had
not only been arrested but were now
suffering the greatest humiliation by
being placed with common felons in the
chain gang of the city of San Saliva
dor.
According to the information receive |,
President Regaldo was advised that
another uprising was about to be I'M
dertaken. An investigation, it is said,
revealed the fact that involved in the
plot were some of the wealthiest men
of the country, among them those men
toned above. The military authori-
ties promptly formulated charges
against the suspects, who were accused
of having entered into a conspiracy to
poison the soldiers occupying the quar-
tel or barracks in the city of San Sal
vador. Although the accused protest
ed their innocence, they were arrested
and taken to San Salvador, where they
have since been prisoners.

GENERAL MILES.
Holds a Conference With the Sec
rotary of War.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 10.-Major Cen
eral Miles had conference of more
than half an hour with the Secretary
of War to-day. Secretary Root said
that the conference was devoted to mil
itary matters but would not speak de-
finitely as to their character When it
was suggested that there was some
rumors with reference to a change of
commanders in the Philippines, he said
he had nothing to say on that subject.
1t is known, however, that General
Miles brought up the recent order of
Secretary Alger regarding the Inspec-
tor Generals Department That por-
ton of the order which places the bu-
reau under the direction of the Secre-
tary of War and omits the command
ing General of the army as was the
case in the former regulations, is not
satisfactory, it is said, to General
Miles.

ARMY SUPPLY DEPARTMENT.
Report Made by Assistant Quar-
termaster General Kimball.


termaster General Kimball.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1O.-Colonel Amos
s. Kimball Assistant Quartermaster
General Of the army; who, during the
war, was in charge of the New York de-
pot of the Quartermaster's Department,
which furnished most of the supplies
for the army, has just completed a re-
port of the work done by his office
during the fiscal year ending June 80,
1899. The reports says:
From the following statement it will
appear that the enormous sum of ST.
0O3, 43O.51 has been disbursed at this
depot during the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1899. Of this amount the sum
of 1851 1850 is for supplies pur-
chased and included in 4,215 accounts;
50, 632, 1866 for services, included in
5,731 accounts; $2,17S,526.55 placed to
the credit of other officers representing
357 transfers and 1921 500 placed to the
credit of the United States treasury,
leaving a balance. June 30. 1S99 of
s., 24S, 073 45.
In referring to the shipments of for
age, straw, oats and similar supplies,
the plan adopted of purchasing them
as follows: Had we undertaken to
ask for bids by newspaper advertise
ments, the very large quantities asked
for would have had tendency to raise
the market, whereas, by obtaining the
lowest quotations quietly, we not only
secured the lowest market rates for for
age, but also special rates for shipping
by commercial lines
The following vessels were purchased
for the army transport service: Berlin,
Bay State, Britannia, Chester, Hart
ford, Mobile, Mississippi, Minnewaska,
Manitoba, Michigan, Massachusetts,
Mohawk, Missouri, OLDHAM, Port Victor,
Panama, Relief, Roumanian, Rita ana
number of tugs, steam lighters, etc.
In addition there was chartered
large fleet of vessels. most of which
were used as transports to carry the
Fifth Army Corps to Santiago. The
total cost of the vessels chartered, pur-,
chased and money spent in refitting
them, amounted to 3,053, 44S.31, and
the number of persons furnished trans
portation by this Office was 1O4 ,4S4, be-
sides 355 animals and S3,7S7 tons of
supplies
The work of bringing the dead from
the West Indies was expeditiously per-
formed, complete record being taken
by the clerk of the New York office as
each body came off the vessel The
total expenditures on this account, in
elusive of collins and decorations,
reached $1O9,S 02. After giving in de-
tail the locations of the various re-
cruiting stations, the report states the
expenses incurred on that score as 500
ST., including $3.50 for rent and ST.
for lodgings.
