IA FOOLISH
DEWEY YARN
A French Correspondent Says
He Was Ordered Out
Of Austria.
THAT FAKE INTERVIEW
In Which He Mentioned Ger.
many Said To Be Respon-
sibIe For His Fake
Disgrace.

NAPLES, Aug. 5.-The Olympia
with Admiral Dewey on board, arrived
here last evening.
Lewis Iddings, American charge
d'affairs at Rome, and several Ameri
can consuls called on the admiral i'm
medistely after the Olympia's arrival
PARIS, Aug. 5.-The Vienna CORES
pondent of Libre Parole declares that
Dewey was expelled from Austria be-
cause of the alleged interview in which
he was quoted as saying our next war
would be with Germany.
The Austrian government requested
the admiral to contradict this, says
the correspondent, but he refused
whereupon he WAS given twenty-four
hours to quit the country.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-Dewey's
flagship anchored in the bay off Naples
today as announced in the following
cablegram from him:
"NAPLES, Aug. 5.-Secretary navy,
Washington: Olympia. Dewey"
The dispatch is characteristic of all
the messages from the admiral since
he left Manila in May last. His ar
rival at Trieste and his departure from
there were communicated in the same
terse naval form and other official dis
patches from him recently stated Sim
ply that the arrangements for recep-
tion at New York we're agreeable to
him.
If he found himsel: unwelcome at
Trieste he never confided in the navy
and If Austria showed him
any inhospitslitv sfter the alleged
Paris interview predicting eventual
war with Germany, the admiral con-
fided in no one regarding it.
The state department has certainly
heard nothing of it from the minister,
md no credence is given to the yarn.

VERY BRISK FIGHT.
Between Rival Hotel Runners AT
The S. p. Depot.

brisk fight between three negro
hotel porters occurred at the S. P. de-
pot at 30 o'clock today.
It was between Mack Ubanks, runner
for the Pierson and Louis Clemons and
M. G. Oliver of the Orndortf. Ubanks
came out second best although
Clemons injured his hand by plsnt-
ing it with too much force in Ubanks'
eye.
The trouble is said to have grown
out of an Intense rivalry, which has
existed for some time between the
porters of the rival hotels. 1t was
started by Ubanks and Clemons, who
are reported to be rivals for the affec-
tions OF the same dusky damsel. They
had a few words and then exchanged
blows. Oliver was close by aud also
took hand. Ubank's nose aud eye
were both injured in the melee that
ensued.
The chief appeared on the scene
while the fight was at its height and
arrested all three OF the combatants
An eye witness says that one of the
men pulled a razor and held it behind
him awaiting favorable opportunity
to use 1t, but when the chief appeared
the razor disappeared

KANSAS STREET
c. e. Bailey's Proposition to Sell His
Property to the City Does No.
Meet With General Approval.

c. E. Bailey's proposition to cell q
portion of Kansas street. adjoining the
court house, to the city at a valuation
of $500 per front foot and take in ex-
change therefor the lot close by on
which the adobe houses are located at
valuation of $3.50 per front foot, is
not regarded with favor by many citi-
zens.
This morning a prominent citizen
called HERALD reporters attention
to the proposition and remarked that
Bailey wanted 20 sell to the city the
obstruction in the street at big price
and receive there for adjoining proper
ty, which would be greatly enhanced
in value by the opening up of the
street.
Z. B. Clardy owns about 10 feet next
to Bailey, but there has been nothing
said about buying him out. The land
was all jumped years ago and the squat
ters were permitted to hold peace able
possession SO long that they acquired
title and when the city concluded to
eject them it found its hands tied.
A law passed in 1895 directs that no
title can be obtained by holding ad-
verse possession to property already
dedicated to use OF city for a street
or alley, but this law was not on the
statute books when Kansas street was
gobbled up.
The county refuses to aid the city to
buy the property and many people are
of the opinion that the mayor ought to
go there some dark night, clear away
all obtructions and declare the street
open. Then the city could stand law
suit after 1t had gained possession.
BAILEY'S PROPOSITION.
Bailey's proposition to the city was
as follows:
My price for this property is $500
per front foot. This valuation is based
not only on the earning capacity of the
above property at reasonable rate of
interest based upon the above price but
also is in accord with the present valu-
alton of adjoining inside property,
" hich is $3.50 per front foot in the same
block.
That do not regard the latter valu-
alton as excessive is evidenced by my
willingness to accept from the city the
40 foot lot covered by the adobe build
ing, at the rate of $3.50 per front foot.
In payment for my property, and L
will pay the city for the Is feet in ex-
cess frontage of what l own, at thas
rate per front foot. In other words, I
will accept in payment of my 25 feet on
the corner, 40 feet covered by the adobe
building and swill pay the city $3.50
front foot for the Is feet in the pro-
perty covered by the adobe building in
excess of the amount in my lot.
1t was and is my intention to erect
brick busines block on this property
that will be credit to the surrounding
provided same is not taken
by the city, or in the event that SUBJ
stitution of the 40 foot lot is made for
the one L now own on the above terms.

CHAMPIONSHIP RACE
Between the European Champion
and an American.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Aug. 5.-Late
this afternoon the Woodside Park track

be one of the grsndest struggles for

tance champion of Europe, and Harry
Elkes, the phenomenal racing man
from Glen Falls.
They will meet in race for the
worlds championship and purse of

delays in case of accidents to the
machines, there will be on hand an
array of pacemakers, with quadrup-
lets and quints ready to take the place

MORE TROOPS NECESSARY.

The Mexican Herald says:
POtam, Rio Yaqui, Aug. l, via Ortiz,
Sonora.-Y Yesterday Lieutenant HERE
ra with small detachment of troops
encountered a group of Indians who
fought vigorously for q few minutes
numb dead on the field OF battle.
Col. Anastacio Torres in an encounter
with the Indians repulsed them, the
Indians having left three of their num-
ber dead behind them.
At daylight today you can hear the
laundering of the guns bu. at this writ
ing we have had no news and are un-
able to state what has transpired. ALI
people in the valleys are fleeing to the
towns and ranches where there are
troops, as they are in constant danger
at their homes. Reinforcements are
being hurried to the scene of action
and it is the belief of the military au-
thorities in command that the rebellion
will soon be quelled.
The fighting this morning was head
ed by Gen. D. Lore 20 Torres in per-
son. This brave general was at the
head of his troops and while 10
action he received wound in the
thigh, but it is thought that the same
is not serious. A surgeon has been
dispatched with all haste to attend to
the generals wound. After the In-
dians had been forced to:retreat, there
were counted on the field of battle,
fifteen of their number dead. There
is one thing apparent. and that is
that more troops are necessary. and in
this the government is using all
speed possible. Already one company
of artillery has been ordered there, and
the National Guards of Guaymas are
en- route. Persons recently from Potam
state that one can see the Indians work.
