ASIATIC CHOLERA
APPEARS IN INDIANA

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Sept 3.-Alarming
reports have been received here to the eff
feet that Asiatic cholera has appeared in
Knox and Ohio counties, Ind. 1t is said
there are several cases of the dread dis
ease at Rising Sun, a small town on the
Ohio River, and the authorities are sup
pressing the news. The victims have
every symptom of cholera and the physi-
clans are said to have pronounced the
cases to be that 1t is known here that
the attention of the Health Department
at indianapolis has been called to the mat
ter and an investigation is being made.
The State Board of Health has prevailed
upon the leading Indiana dailies not to
publish anything about the fact that
cholera is reported to prevail in this
county for the present at least The
section thus affected, while bordering
upon the river, has no railroad communi-
cation and for this reason the informa-
ton has been kept from the public. No
deaths have been reported. but there are
two or three serious cases and local
physicians are using every precaution to
prevent the spread of the disease A
number of families have moved out of
Knox and Ohio counties on account of the
presence. of what they believe to be
Asiatic cholera.

POSSIBILITY OF A FALL CAUS-

Coroner Pierce's Statement About the
Broken Neck and Dislocated
Shoulder Ridiculed by
Railway Officials.
Special Dispatch to The Call

SAN RAFAEL, Sept. 3.-The seeming
apathy manifested by the Sonoma County
authorities as regards any effort to dis
cover the identity of G. Canzianfs mGr-
derer has so aroused the dead mans
countrymen that they intend to take the
matter into their own hands and secure
the services of a detective agency, With
the object of bringing the assassin to JUS
tice f. Canziani, brother of the deceased,
has enlisted the sympathy of the whole
Italian colony of Marin County and funds
will be subscribed to aid in the work of
detecting the assassin
That. Canziani was murdered there
seems little room for doubt He was
found a mile south of Howards, lying face
downward across a rail fence, with his
neck broken and his left shoulder dislo-
Gated. In the region of the neck and LETT
collar bone were numerous bruises, one
probably marking the spot where fell the
club or other instrument that broke the
mans neck.
fallen from the railroad bridge is re-
garded as entirely absurd by those ia
miliar with the facts. The body was
found thirty feet from the nearest point
where man could have fallen, and, be-
side it would not have been in accord
with physical law for heavy man to
have dropped 1872 feet-Such being the
height of the structure-without breaking
fence rail or being bruised al the point
of contact with the fence. Canziani could
not have been struck by train, for none
passed in either direction subsequently to
a time when he was seen at Howards.
Coroner Pierce's statement that Can
Ziani's neck was not broken nor the
shoulder dislocated when the inquest was
held at Occidental is scoffed at both by
Deputy Coroner Steven Eden and the
railway officials When the body was sent
here for interment the neck was broken
and the left shoulder dislocated, and if
such were not true at the time of the in
quest, only rough treatment in shipping
the remains could have caused such a
condition AS the remains were Grated and
carefully handled, the injuries must have
been overlooked at the~nquest
Coroner Eden telephoned Sheriff Grace
at Santa Rosa and acquainted him with
the facts to-day and Grace said that he
would make an immediate Investigation.
The Marin County authorities are power
less, as the tragedy occurred several
miles across the boundary line separating
Marin and Sonoma counties.

SHADES BENEFIT NETS
A THOUSAND DOLLARS

The grand testimonial benefit to Private
John w. Slade of the First California
Volunteers, which took place in the AL
hambra Theater last night, was an un-
qualified success, financially and artisti
cally. The receipts of the box office footed
up $151, including $3.50 paid by Mrs. A. S.
Townsend during the afternoon for one
whole section, which she desired for her
soldier guests. In addition to this amount
a considerable sum is expected to be re-
allied from the sale of tickets placed with
parties on the outside, tthe returns from
which have not been received. The entire
expenses amounted to considerably less
than $500, and it is expected that the net
receipts Will reach or exceed $1,000
The theater was packed to the doors,
represented, both by officers and privates.
Mrs. Townsend and Miss Rattfgan occu-
pied a box with Private Slads, the bene-
ficiary, and when Father McKfnnon, chap
lain of the regiment, who made the pre-
sentation address, referred in glowing
words of praise to Mrs. Townsend's grand
and generous treatment of the soldier
boys who claim California for their home,
the entire house arose in one tre-
mendous outburst of applause, greater
even than that which greeted the mention
of the name OF the crippled nero Tor whose
benefit the entertainment was being given.
The programme began promptly at 8
O'Clock with a short address by E. r.
Moss Of the Pacific Coast Walters Union,
was arranged, and from that time until
midnight the actors and actresses who
had generously volunteered their services
for the occasion, followed one another on
the stage in rapid succession. Most of the
talent was professional, but not all by any
means. Little Rosie Bennett made the hit

During the evening Father McKinnon an

said. contained notification to the
manned soldier that the Supervisors had
a position open for him as soon as his
wounds would permit of its acceptance.

two other persons to retain as witnesses.
A man employed at the camp stated
that he saw these two men who are

H|GHWAYMEN LOOT
A GAMBLING DEN
Policeman Shot and
May Die.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SPOKANE, Sept. 3.-At o'clock this
morning Harry Green's gambling rooms
in the heart of this city were entered by
two masked highwaymen, who held up
the fifteen persons present, robbed the
place of $1700 in gold, silver and bills,
locked the occupants in the room and
dashed down the back stairs and away.
A few minutes later number of mer-
chants and Policeman Richard Gemmrig
attempted to halt the highwaymen sew
eral blocks from the scene of the robbery.
They exchanged shots, each man empty
ing his gun. Gemmrig attempted to close
in on the men when one drew a second
gun and fired, the bullet entered Gemm-
rigs groin and passed out at his back.
He sank senseless to the ground. Other
officers, who were attracted by the noise,
arrived on the scene and continued the
chase The robbers separated and one
who gives his name as Jack Williams was
caught The other is still at liberty Will
liams has been identified as the man who
shot Gemmrig. The captured robber had
in his possession a sack containing $500.
When the robbery took place two faro
games were running. Fifteen men, in
cluding the emp4oyes of the house, were
present, Both robbers carried guns as
Hands up!' The occupants were lined
up in a row facing the wall. One, a
Chinaman, yelled, mo Sabe," and tried
to escape. He was knocked unconscious
to the floor by blow on the head from
one of the robbers guns. While one man
kept the crowd cowed with his guns the
second gathered all the money in
sight opened the safe and secured the
bags of gold and the paper forming the
bank-roll. Both the robbers backed out
of the door, which they locked, then DASH
ed down the stairs and away.
Several seconds interyened before the
dazed occupants gave the alarm and then
the police took up the work. The fact
that only four patrolmen in the whole
city are on duty at that hour, gave the
highwaymen an advantage and largely
contributed to the escape of the missing
man. The missing robber carries with
him about s1400 in gold and bills. a vlg-
erous search is being conducted by the
police in the city and all the surrounding
towns have been notified. Green offers
half the money for the capture of the
robher
The wounded officer is in serious con-
dition, but the physicians tonight ex-
press hopes of his recovery. 1t is believed
the two highwaymen are the same men
who recently held up and robbed a gamb-
ling house at Republic. They have been
rooming here about week and have been
frequent visitors to the clubroomS.
Williams refuses to make any statement
or to give any clew Whion will lead to
the capture of his partner.
The place where the robbery took place
was less than three blocks from the ponce
station.
