SHOOTS DOWN
ARMED NEGRO
Tragedy at Night
on Street in
Vallejo.
Special Dispatch to The Cali.

VALLEJO, Sept. 1O.-Charles Bade, an
elderly resident Of this city and promi-
nent in Grand Army circles, tonight shot
and killed Lloyd Hewston, a young negro
while the latter, armed with a large re-
volver, was seeking the life of the vet
eran.
The shooting, which occurred on Caro-
lima street at $50 o'clock. was the result
Of a brief quarrel Bade and Hewston
lived on the same street and between the
families of each there had been some
ground for enmity.
When Hewston saw Bade tonight he
entered into a conversation with him and
in a few minutes the two were involved
in dispute Eventually Hewston turned
away and hurried to his home, his anger
at a pitch that boded nothing good for
Bade. The Grand Army man conjectured
that the negro would return and he i'm
mediately armed himself with a shotgun
Half an hour later Hewston reappeared
and, after renewing the quarrel, drew
revolver. Bade instantly opened fire,
charge Of heavy shot entering the negro s
side. He fell to the ground and for sew
eral minutes struggled in a vain effort to
rise and discharge at Bade the weapon
he still clutched in his hand.
Bade was arrested by Chief of Police

OFIA, Bulgaria, Sept. 10.-The con-

causing much excitement In political and
general circles here. While Premier Pc
troff's intimation that Bulgaria would
soon be forced into war unless the powers
intervene was conveyed in the course of
informal conversation with the diplomats
in Sofia and in no sense intended as an
official communication, it may be regard
ed as an indication that the patience of
the Bulgarian people is becoming ex-

sacres and outrages in Macedonia. The

lars of the number of persons murdered
in each case.
