Associate Justice Harlan of the
United States Supreme Court
said in speech before the Phi
Beta Kappa society:
"Some people have a curious
way in which to manifest their
devotion to country. There are
those who rarely see anything in
the operations of our Government
which they approve. They never
fail, when the nation is in a con
test or having dispute with other
peoples, to say that our country is
wrong and our adversaries right,
and they do this even while our
brave soldiers are in far distant
lands epdeavouring to maintain
the rightful authority of this
nation. Some have not hesitated
to say, in the most public way,
that those who ambush and shoot
down our brave boys in the Phil.
pine jungles are doing only what
they have a right to do, and what
their honor demands. They do
not hesitate to place the trescher-
Gus Aguinaldo by the side of
Washington and La Fayette and
Lincoln. One of the most con-
spicuous Of that class has rt Gently
c characterized this nation as "a
great assassin nation and has
declared that the salvation of
liberty depends upon the defeat of
our gallant army in the Philip
pines. These men are never hap
pier than when attempting to per
suade their fellow citizens that
America is entering upon a dark
aud perilous future, and that all that
has so far been accomplished for
the liberty and we'll being of the
American people will be lost"
Justice Harlan is one of those
men who believes in the great !
lestiny of the nation, and the
he glory of the flag. He adds in
nis remarks: "Let us have an
faith that it will never de.
part from the fundamental prin-
,iples OF right and justice, nor
prove recreant to the high trusts
,om mitted to it for the benefit, not
alone of the American people, but
IF all men everywhere on all the
The earth"

Al, the man who assaulted his
wife in Makiki early Sunday
morning, came up for trial in the
Police Court this forenoon, as the
woman was able to get out of the
hospital. Al pleaded drunken
ness as the cause of all the trouble,
but Judge Wilcox gave him three
months on the reef. He intended
to do his duty even if the native
did appeal to the Circuit Court
and have his case thrown out by
Deputy Attorney General Dole
and then given a new suit of
clothes. The fellow looked as if
he wanted a new suit. When
Deputy Marshal Hitchcock re-
commended three months Judge
Wilcox stated that no had intend.

lana Desperadoes.
POSSES DRIVEN OFF
They Return for Reinforcements,
and a Battle Royal in the South
ern Swamps Expected.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW ORLEANS, April 6.-Four
hundred men armed with rifles. large
portion of them mounted, are securing
the parishes of Tangipahoa and Wash
ington in search of men who recently
assassinated Mr.. Magee, of the Ban
ner Lumber Company, at Kentwood. in
Tangipahoa.
Magee's assassination is one of a
dozen that have occurred in the parish,
and it seems to have at last aroused
the law and order element.
Bloodhounds were obtained and the
trail of the assassins followed. Since
then the parish has been like IN armed
camp. Several posses set out for the
desperadoes, who are led by Bambert
and Gill. They have been several times
arrested for murder. The desperadoes
were found, but fortified themselves in
a house and drove off the posse, which
returned to Tangipahoa for reinforce
Tnents.
The desperadoes retreated into Wash
ington Parish, where some forty or fifty
of them assembled in a house fifteen
miles east of Franklinton. They have
since taken refuge in swamp on Pearl
River on the boundary line Of louisa
ma and Mississippi.
These swamps will be searched to-
morrow, and a battle royal is expected.
There is a strong determination TO
crush out the brigands, who have so
long tcrroriZed that section.

A BOLD PLAY
TO GET SAILORS
Boy From California Is
Shanghaied.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

TACOMA, Wash, April "a special
from Port Townsend states that war
rants for the arrest of j. Norris and
William Scott for attempting to shang-
hal Alex Benson, Ray Hubbard and
Thomas Saunders on the British bark
Kate F. Troop, are in the hands Of
Deputy United States Marshal Strin-
ger, who for three days past has been
looking for them. Norris and Scott are
sailor boarding house men. Benson had
just arrived in Seattle from Bakers
field, Cal, and was looking for en-
ployment. On Sunday morning he was
approached by Norris and Scott and
asked if he wanted work, stating that
they were looking for men to go to
Blakeley to work in a lumber yard.
Benson replied that he would accept
the job, and with a number of others
was taken to Blakeley, where the bark
Troop was being towed out of the har-
Dor. Their launch circled around the
vessel until she had got outside the
harbor, when it ran alongside and made
fast. The men were ordered aboard.
All complied except Benson, when he
was struck on the head and one of the
outfit drew a gun and threatened to kill
him. During the scuffie his blankets
were put aboard and, fearing for his
life, he went aboard and the launch
started for Seattle.
When British Consul Rothschild went
aboard the Troop, Benson and two
others refused to ship, and they were
ordered ashore.
Benson claims that Norris and Scott
landed them two miles from town. tell
ing them they could secure work near
there, also that if they came across to
Port Townsend they would be killed
Later they went to Port Townsend and
laid the matter before Chaplain Terry,
of the Seamen's Bethel, who had war
rants issued for Scott and Norris They
had left before Deputy Marshal Strin-
ger arrived from Seattle to arrest
them.

MAY NOT
Be INVESTIGATED
Stockton Ballot Jugglers
Likely to Escape.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

STOCKTON, April 6.-It developed
to-day that when the Grand Jury ad-
journed last evening it was until the
18th of May, and not till to-day, when it
was supposed the investigation Of the
alleged ballot box stuffing would be
continued AS the Republican conven-
ton assemblies Monday the proceeding
the jury may take will come after the
excitement of the convention and cleo
ton is over There is considerable
criticism and speculation over the
jury's action, as a large body of citizens
insist that the frauds, if any were
actually perpetrated, should be probed
without fear or favor. The contesting
delegation in the Third Ward, accord
ing to report, will not carry their case
to the Superior Court, but will demand
recognition in the convention. AS the
new law does not empower conventions
to pass on such matters the announce
ment is equivalent to an abandonment
of the contest.
District Attorney Ashley refuses to
state whether any action Will be taken
by him in the matter or not, answering
all questions with the reply that his
tongue is tied by law.
William Purcell and Frank futile,
who are said by Watson to have been
present when an attempt was made by
Eckstrom to hush the matter by getting
Visher to help him out, stoutly deny
that they were present at any such
meeting. They say Watson is trying
to implicate them in the case. The
friends of Eckstrom and Patterson are
active in their behalf and assume to
make light of the charges.
The CITY Clerk was busy to-day max
ing out certificates of election for dele
gates of both parties. They are issued
in the same form as certificates of cleo
ton to office The delegates must pre-
sent them at the convention and on so
doing become members of a legally con-
stituted body A committee on creden-
tials in the convention will no longer
be necessary.

MYSTERY CONNECTED
WITH C0NLON'S DEATH
aire Being Rushed by Mrs.
Abbie Kinnes.

SAN JOSE, April 6.-There is an in
creasing mystery surrounding the death
of John P. Conlon, the semi millionaire
of New York City, which resulted from
apoplexy here yesterday morning. Mrs.
Abbie Kinnes, who occupied the relation
ship of niece and adopted daughter, be-
sides passing as Mrs. Conlon, refuses to
give out any information regarding the
deceased. She, however, states that all
of Conlon's property has been left to her.
At the same time she admits she has a
cousin who, but for his wild escapades,
would have come IN for equal inheritance.
Mrs Kinnes will start East tomorrow
She appears to have an unlimited amount
of cash and has spared no expense in
funeral arrangements. A $500 casket has
been purchased from w. L. Woodrow, the
undertaken, and other appointments for
the deceased are of the same costly or
der. The body has been embalmed and
will be shipped East tomorrow morning
dertaker, ga Broadway, Brooklyn, N Y.
This was done on Geographic instructions
from New York.
Mrs. Kinnes to-day engaged Attorneys
futile and Patton to look after her in
terests, and spent most of the day with
them. No will was found among Conlon's
effects, but it is said such an instrument
lies in the vault of an Eastern bank. The
only other relative of COnlon is a
nephew bearing his name, but he has been
disowned and disinherited. Although her
-
it is said Mrs. Kinnes has deeds of re.
cent date to valuable New York real es-
tate. These she seems anxious to rush
into record before the nephew can take
steps to secure his share. Her attorneys
refuse to discuss affairs, but assert that
their client is all she processes to be in
regard to relationship to Conlon.
Mrs. Kinnes submitted to a short inter-
view tonight. and then unceremoniously
bounced the reporters. She tells several
conflicting stories. She says John P. Con-
Ion inherited his wealth from his father,
who bore the same name, and was a ship
builder and contractor. Conlon's wealth
she estimates at over $500 900, consisting
of tenement houses and warehouses in
New York City. She refused to tell where
the property was located, and finally said
she did not know, as the janitor who
had been in her uncles employ for half
a century, attended to the business. Two
years ago she and her uncle kept house
at 437 One Hundred and Twenty-third
street. New York, and at other times
stopped at various hotels. This was the
only address she would give. Mrs. Kinnes
said her husband was Andrew Kinnes,
an employe of the New York Custom
house. She denied being the adopted
daughter, as well as niece of the dead
man, but she showed to the undertaken
a certificate of adoption. Mrs Kinnes
said her uncle and herself were the only
two remaining relatives Of the family and
had travelled together for seven years.

KNOCKS OUT HIS
FORMER ASSA|LANT
Attorney Fairall Fells
Thomas Fitch Jr.
Special Dispatch to Tn. Call.

STOCKTON, April "a sensational
encounter took place last evening on
San Joaquin street between Attorney
c. H. Fairall and Thomas Fitch Jr.,
son and namesake of his eloquent
father. Attorney Fairall has but one
hand This misfortune is due to pistol
wounds inflicted by Fitch last summer,
when he emptied a revolver at the I'M
armed lawyer on a public thorough
fare. But with this remaining hand of
his strong right arm Fairall turned on
Fitch last evening and delivered pow
erfuI blow square in the face of his for
mer assailant, sending him upon his
back in the gutter.
The lawyer walked calmly away, and
was soon engaged in a conversation
with a friend a short distance from
wrath The trouble arose between the
two when Fairall became the attorney
for Mrs. Fitch in her suit for divorce.
The defendant claimed that the law
yer had been interested in his affairs
in more than a professional capacity.
All of the interested parties were at
the time guests of the Budd House.
Fitch was known to be possessed of a
vivid imagination and an ungovernable
temper and his aVoWalS Of vengeance
were shown to be more than mere raw
ings when he attempted to shoot down
Fairall. AS it was the lawyer lost his
left hand.
Some sympathy was felt for Fitch, as
many thought he had worked his mind
into such a state that he was not ac-
countable for his attempt at murder.
He got off with a fine. Since then he
has been around town, seemingly as
a man of leisure. Fairall naturally
met or passed him frequently. The at
torney says it has been Fftch's custom
ia glare at him as the two approached,
and when nearly opposite to glance at
his empty sleeve and then give sar-
castle leer. The lawyer said human
nature could not stand the continued
insults delivered by unmistakable in
situation and manner and in cruel
malice Last evening the worm turned
and Fitch went down.
The trouble is now reopened, and
there are many who predict a tragedy.
Fitch has lost much of the former SYM
patty shown him, and Fairall is evil
IDENTIFY of the opinion that patience has
ceased to be a virtue. Fitch applied
for a warrant for FairalPs arrest, but
it was refused him, pending further
investigation of the encounter by the
Prosecuting Attorney.

SACRAMENTO AND
GARBAGE QUESTION
Seekers of Incineration
Contract Fail.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SACRAMENTO, April 6.-The Garbage
Disposal Company, which has the exclu'
sive franchise for collecting and burning
refuse in San Francisco, has sought to
introduce a similar system in Sacra-
mento, but has thus far met with failure.
The proposition of the company is to Sc
cure from the city an exclusive franchise
for a period of twenty-five years TO
gather and destroy by incineration all
garbage Of whatever character accumu-
latng on the streets or deposited by resi-
dents After five years have elapsed the
company will pay the city per cent per
annum on the gross receipts, and after
ten years will present the city with the
chance to purchase the plant at price
to be set by arbitrators.
However. the terms of the franchise are
a little too exacting to suit the easy
going Sacramentans, since the company
insists that every resident shall equip
himself with a tightly sealed can, into
which he must daily dump the garbage
from his premises and from the streets
in front thereof, and have the contribu-
ton ready when the garbage man comes.
If he fails in this duty he is liable to
fine or Imprisonment Tor mlsdemeanor,
and he must pay the garbage man 20
cents per cubic yard 13r Allowing the
material TO go up in smoke.
Protests against such an arrangement
have been made 10 the Trustees, and the
fifty or more garbage COLLECTORS VI lIIlS
CITY are Directing to a monopoly which
will freeze them out of their occupation.
At the last meeting of the Board of Trus-
tees II was resolved to communicate with
Eastern cities to ascertain the feasibility
Of Sacramento setting up garbage dis
pOsal plant which will be all her very
own.
In connection with the question of gar
bage disposal an interesting state OF
things has developed here. Against the
remonstrance Of the press and many citi-
zens the Board of Trustees a year ago
established dumping grounds for the
city's garbage at d point north of the CEN
Ter Of the city and just below the Ameri-
can River, in a locality subject to over
flow and near the junction of the Ameri-
can River with the Sacramento River.
overlooked its banks the water filtered
through the garbage and then coursed
along into the Sacramento River at a
point 200 yards above the suction pipes
through which is drawn the city's drink
Ing supply. When this fact became known
the people were seized with a desire TO
fOrsWear water forever and take to the
juice Of the corn and the grape, and now
the Trustees and the Board Of Health as
sisted by several engineers, are deVsing
a method to imprison the garbage from
the overflow by means of a leVee. Nat
urally the authorities deplore references
TO the dumps" as injurious to the inter
ests Of the city, appearing, however to
forget that a little official foresight as to
their location in the first place would
have insured against such unple asant
consequences.
