GRAIN RATE PROBLEM.
Commissioner B1ackstock's So1u-
tion Of the Litigation.

t1OA VI Inc x<AtAk4 tAO0s
SAN FRANCISCO, March 2O.-Rail-
road Commissioner Blackstock is IN
favor of dismissing all of the pending
litigation between the Railroad Com
mission and the Southern Pacific Com
pany, and hopes. by repeating the )
per cent. grain rate resolution of the
last commission, to accomplish this re-
suit and relieve the board of the in
junction with which it is now ham,
pered.
This is his proposed solution of the
grain rate trouble, which, during the
past three years, has deprived the Rail-
road Commission of authority to fegu-
late fares and freights. He regards the
further prosecution of the pending liti-
cation as inexpedient, and declares that
the expense involved has not warranced
by the small prospect of a favorable
decision.
He presented these findings to the
commission this afternoon, together
with a resolution repeating the action
of the last board. Laumeister declared
that he was opposed to the repeal of The
. Der cent. resolution, and Edison re-
marked that it would require consld-
cradle argument to lead him to accept
all Of Blackstock's conclusions. The
matter will be argued and possibly act
ed on tomorrow.
A number of prominent cattlemen
lodged complaint with the commission
against the alleged careless handling Of
stock on railroad cars.

Plan for the Relief of Wards in
Southern California.

LOS ANGELES, March 20 Il. A
Wright, Chief Agent of the Mission In
dianS of Southern California, from Tu-
lare County south, who arrived here
to-day from San Jacinto, is in receipt
of instructions from the Government iii
Washington looking to the relief Of his
wards, who have been almost destitute
on account of drought
The following plan, Mr.. Wright says,
will be adopted: WE will develop
water on the reservations. The Indians
will be set at work with their teams and
scrapers. They will not be paid in
cash, but will receive rations and what
ever they need. Thus they will be
given a chance to earn their living,
which is the Government plan in deal
ing with them.
The recent rain has revived their crop
prospects somewhat, and they will go
about the country shearing sheep, shift
ing their camps from flock to flock. As
soon as they come back they will lie
set at work developing water. Near San
Jacinto they will clean out and enlarge
the Cfenega, which lies along the San
Jacinto River, the Swampy source Of
our water there. At Ojo Caiiente thsy
will be set at work on a water system
for the Indian school"

MADAME MELBA.
The Opera Singer Has a Narrow
Escape From a Serious Accident.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 20.-Ma-
dame Melba, the prima donna of the
Ellis Opera Company, had a narrow es-
cape from serious accident last evening
Never in her career has the sweet
voiced singer come so near being fatally
injured as she did last evening. She
was saved as by a miracle. A slight
turn of the head, a forward motion of
the body probably saved her. She was
struck down and rendered unconscious
for nearly fifteen minutes, and for a
while her alarmed companions thought
that she had been killed
1t all happened in this way. Last
evening Madame Melba and number
of the members of the Ellis Company,
including Manager Ellis, were the
guests of Mr.. and Mrs. de Young. Af-
ter supper the guests adjourned to the
drawingroom. and while the gentlemen
Withdrew to enjoy their cigars, the la
dies gathered in cosy corner amid
some handsome heavy draperies. The
pima donna was seated beside a. tall
pedestal, which rested a heavy bronze
statue. In some una ccountable man
ner the statute tipped over and fell in
such a way that it struck Madame
Melba on the crown of the head pros
trating her.
Medical assistance was Immediately
summoned, and all that was possible
to do for the lady in the matter of re-
lievins her suffering was done. For
several minutes she never moved, and
it was fifteen minutes before she gave
signs of recovering from the shock. A
large lump was raised on the lady S
head and the scalp would undoubtedly
have been lacerated had not the hair
protected it.

Ships Without Crews.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 2O-The
ships James Drummond, S. P. Hitch
Geek and Agenor are tied up in the bay,
all waiting for crews. They have been
loaded with cargoes for Eastern ports,
and it was expected th5y would be able
to get away to-day. The inability of
the ships masters to get their vessels
under way is due to the refusal of Ship
ping Commissioner Gwin to allow the
men to sail at the wages offered, which
IS $40 month. The Commissioner
thinks he sees in this gigantic cut in
the usual wages of S3o a month paid
deep water sailors a plot of the board
ing house masters to secure the diff
ference between S15 and $50 month,
and has applied to the authorities at
Washington for instructions in the

The record-union., 1899-03-21

HUTCHINSON, March 2O.-An afro
cious crime was revealed here to-day
when the Coroner and his assistants re
moved the dead bodies of five little
children from the house occupied by
John Moore, which burned at. an early
hour. A Coroner's jury investigated the
case, and, in accordance with the jury S
recommendation, Moore, the father Of
the dead children, was arrested on a
charge of murder.
The tragedy has caused much ex-
citement here and there is some talk
of lynching the prisoner. However, a
lynching is not looked for.
When the firemen and neighbors
reached the burning house the father
was the only member of the family of
seven found outside. His actions were
queer, and he would not talk While
the building was still burning and his
children within the burning walls, he
took horse from the stable and rode
away.
When the fremen entered the house,
after having partly quenched the
flames, they found the five children
lying side by side in bed on the floor,
all dead, but not badly burned. The
dead are: Karl, aged -; Mary, aged
10; Pearl, aged s; Charles, aged Z, and
Lee, aged 3.
The Coroner's autopsy, held this
afternoon, developed convincing evil
dence of an awful crime. The skull of
each child was deeply indented, and
from the dents long fractures extended
All but one of the children had been
stabbed in the neck. The throat Of
the little three -year-old, a pretty boy,
had been slashed so deep that the
spinal column had been severed.
1t was upon these facts and the
strange behavior of the father that
the authorities base their charge Of
murder.
When Moore was called before the
Coroner's jury to testify he pretended
to believe that an exploding lamp had
caused the fire and that his children
had met death in the flames. He tes-
tilted that he was awakened from a
deep sleep by the smoke and that he
found the house afire all over. 1t was
fifteen minutes, he said, before he re-
covered his senses, and then he did
not try to save his children, as he knew
they must be dead, as the fire had
started in the room in which they were
sleeping.
His riding away from the fire he ex
planned by stating that. his wife was
away from home attending sick friend
and that he went to tell her of their
loss. Moore showed little concern when
the jury returned the verdict charging
him with murder.
Moore seems to be sane. and outside
of his actions during the fire there has
been nothing to bear out the insanity
theory.
