MAYOR OF SAN
JUAN ARRESTED
Accused of Destroying Evi-
dence of Alleged En-
beZZlement.

SAN JUAN, P. r., Jan. 3.-Mayor
Manuel Egozcue has been arrested and
is held on $4,000 bail on the
charge, made by Insular Official In
spector Hoist, of destroying the rec
ords Of the city water receipts which
constituted the only evidence of alleg-
ed extensive peculations and embezzle-
ment.
The allegations against the mayor
were originally made last October in a
petition of citizens, which was present.
ed to the governor and which asked
for the prosecution Of the mayor. The
editor of The News, which published
the text of the petition, was arrested
Oct. % on the complaint of the mayor
on charge of libel. This arrest end
ed in the shooting of the two men.
Since then three other officials have
been arrested and are being prosecut-
ed for alleged shortages In their ac-
counts and for embezzIements. The
peculauOnS are said to range from
$4,000 to $4,000 and misappropriation
of other funds is also alleged.
The arrest of the mayor today led
to great excitement. Mobs congregat-
ed in the plaza and streets and sur
rounded the office of Lawyer Acuna,
who has undertaken the defense of a
former city official named Rivera, who
turned states evidence. Shots were
fired, but no persons sustained serious
injury.

the Raudenbush building, corner of ST.
Peter and Sixth streets, at midnight
last night, which for a while threat
ened the entire building. The fire
started in some unknown manner in
the b-basement of the building in a
corner occupied only by rubbish 1t
ate its way into the main basement,
thence to the first floor, where it was
discovered burning brightly by Officer
Costello. The department arrived
quickly and the flames were soon sub
dued, although owing to the awkward
position of the blaze it was difficult to
reach.
Considerable damage was done to
the piano stock of S. w. Raudenbush
& Co., who occupy the main floor, by
fire, water and hasty handling. Sew
eral pianos which stood above the
burned portion of the floor were badly
burned and many were marred through
the hasty moving necessary to fight
the fire and through water soaking.
The loss to the company was esti-
mated by Mr.. Raudenbush to be about
$4,000. The stock was fully covered
by insurance. e.s-
The loss to the building will not be
large. 1t is estimated that $500 will
cover the damage. The building was
recently purchased by DR.. Rudolph

she had written a personal letter to the
pope asking him to grant her a di-
vorce. In the letter she told his holi-
ness all about her intolerable life in
Dresden and called his attention to the
fact that he had severed the bonds of
hateful matrimony in a case similar to
hers. This is the case of Lady Mary
Hamilton, a sister of the late Duke OF
Hamilton, who married the present
prince of Monaco and separated from
him at the end of month on the plea
that she was not a. consenting party
to the contract and married against
her will. The pope annulled the mar
riage. Lady Mary subsequently mar
ried Count Tassilo Festetics and the
only son of this union committed sui
eide last week by hanging himself
from the bars of a window in a room
in an asylum for the insane, where he
had been confined. The princess also
announced that she is going to Paris
to live. She said:
''I have spent only twelve days of my
life in Paris, but I love it. We will
live with economy for ourselves, but
will cultivate art. When we can safely
do so we will go there. At present I
am advised that we could be arrested
on French soil. So if we had gone to
