THE THIEVES

EFFECTIVE
WORK
About $500 Worth Of
Goods Stolen, Includ-
ing Clothing and
Personal Effects.

While Hon. Marx Smith was in Cali
fornia during the past month. burglars
effected an entrance into his house ON
$ tone avenue and plundered it OF about
5000 worth of effects.
The house had been left in charge OF
Col. Breaihitt. but he left for the East
about two weeks ago.
The burglars probably entered with
skeleton key, as no evidence was found
to go to prove that they forced door or
window.
Among the articles taken vas valu-
able shotgun. a gift Of Parker, the maxi
er who is personal friend of Mr.. Smith.
They also took fine revolver, q tuxedo
suit, Prince Albert suit, dress suit
and other smaller articles Of wearing
apparel. They plundered the beds of
all the knen and helped themselves 70
any knick-knacks about the house that
caught their eye.
There is no clew to the thieves but Mxs
Smith has put the case in charge OF the
city police department, and it 10 hoped
they will be arrested and the goods re-

Eagle and Wild Cat
Engage in a Fight

san RAFAEL, Aug. 23.-A fierce duel
between a wild cat and an eagle was
witnessed yesterday afternoon by City
Attorney Thomas P. Boyd and q friend
as hey were returning from Bolinas. 1t
resulted in q victory for the bird, which
killed it's adversary and made an attempt
to bear away its carcass.
81 was about half way up the boi'nas
side OF the ridge when my attention was
attracted to a patch Of short sagebFush
on the hill side above the road" said
MIR. Boyd In describing the fight. THAT
there was something doing was evident
from the cries and the sound oi breaking
brush that came from small clearing
in the center. Clouds OF dust arose
above the short brush as two objects
tumbied about on the ground. For
some time l watched the sport, unable
TO determine what the combatants were.
MY friend and both resolved to referee
the fight, but from distance.
"After we Lad watched for several
minutes We were surprised TO see large
eagle rise from the brush distance oil
about ten feet ard then swoop down again
and continue the fight. Itdid thisseverai
times, until finally after one oi these
fierce onslaughts there was only brief
struggle and then the commotion ceas-
ed.
'Soon the great bird scared upward,
carrying in its talons large wild cat. 1
was not more than eighty yards distant
at the time. The cat wiggied and clawed
weakly. The eagle had it by the back.
After the bird cleared the brush with its
prey 1t sailed out over the canyon to the
west, gradually rising in its fight. After
crossing Bourne Gulch the bird began to
soar upward until it had attained height
OF perhaps 500 yards. Then its prey fell

CHINA AND THE H4GTF

The powers Of Europe are. after fashion. on
trial and the fashion is a significant one MANY
times in the last year the suggestion has nfor-
maliF been made that the Chinese question. or
some salient phases of it. should be referred to
the international arbitration tribunal consti-
tuted under the Treaty Of Tho Hague. The
suggestion has not yet been acted upon. Per
maps there was no reason 10 expect it to be so
long as it was put forward unofficiaIy But
now, we are informed. the proposition has been
made in a most authoritative and we might
say, urgent manner. The United States than
which no other power has n deeper legitimate
concern in China. has proposed TO the powers
represented at Peking that the indemnity ques-
non. upon which no agreement has yet been
reached or is yet in sight shall he referred to

note the replies which VIII he made and espe-
cially 70 note which side the various powers

that all will assent TO the proposit,on. although
such assent Is not impossible and would not
necessarily be surprising. But If it is not given

uB L4VSOS'S TACTICS.

Whatever disposition may have existed hith-
erto in any quarter to think that the Newly ork
Yacht Club was inclined to take an unneces-
sarily narrow view Of its powers and obliga-
tions with reference to opening the competition
for the honor of defending the Americas Cup
to yachts not flying its own flag, 1t will, we
think be generally agreed that the club was
fully warranted in breaking off negotiations
with Mr.. Lawson and returning to him his
proffered form of charter The question pre-
cipitated by Mr.. LawSons propositions was not
one of terms, liberal or illiberal. 1t makes no
difference whether the rules Of the club were
such as disinterested persons would have wished
or not. Mr.. Lawson had apparently accepted
them, and he understood perfectly what he had
to do to secure the entry of his yacht for the
races Instead of going on in good faith to
live up to those conditions. he concocted an
elaborate plan TO put the NewYork Yacht Club
lin the hole
The form OF charter which he insisted upon
sending to the committee, Notwithstanding
warnings that il was not necessary, was an
insult TO them and TO the club as whole
with its long list of "whereases' Juggling
into the document nsinuations utterly out OF
place in legal instrument such as this pur-
ported to he. In paragraph he recited
his grievance that the best American built
yacht could compete for the Cup only under
the clubs flag and in another suggested that
the club has made rules unwarrantably in add-
ton TO the deed of gift The legal opinion Of
the lawyer whose anonymity he has carefully
preserved was in no sense a bona fide piece OF
legal advice as to how best he might meet the
requirements of the race. but rather piece OF
special pleading evidently drafted for n play to
the galleries.
1t is much to he regretted that any obstacle
should prevent the widest competition for the
opportunity 10 defend the Cup. The New-1Ork
Yacht Club rules. whether they We're ideal or
not made ii perfectly possible for Mr.. Lawson
to enter the trial races if he wished to do so
instead of seeking n grievance. II is still pos

could not for an instant have supposed that the
committee would accept the proffered charter.
Whatever his motive was, he clearly did not
contemplate STRAIGHTFORWARD acceptance of the
committees terms II he does not choose to do
