Drunken Man Runs Amuck.

San Diego. CAL. May 1G.-Armed
with rifle, revolver and dirk. each of
which ne used with deadly dexterity
a madman ran amuck In this city yes
terday, killing two men, a boy and a
woman, wounding two other persons,
and finally blowing off the top Of his
own head and dying within few min
utes. Three of the victims lived in the
same house with the slayer. The fourth
person whom he killed and the two
who were wounded resided half a mile
away, and it was in their house that
the maniac took his own life.
The man who enacted this ghastly
tragedy was w. P. Robinson, about
forty years Of age, Of powerful build
and some education. The precise causes
which led him to wholesale murder
may never be ascertained. 1t is known,
however, that he was a heavy drinker,
that he was intensely interested in the
Nihilist movement in Russia and that
against two or three OF his victims he
fancied that he had some petty griey-
ance. On the other hand, he Is said to
have been ordinarily a good-natured
man and inclined to be generous-one
OF the last persons likely to take life.
The general supposition is that drink
and brooding over N!hilism brought on
an attack of homtcidal mania.

Fighting Moro Outlaw.

Manila, May 16.-Fierce fighting has
been going on the last two weeks on
the island of Jolo between the outlaw
Moro chief, Pala, with 600 well-armed
followers, and troops under the per-
sonal command of Maj. Gen. Leonard
Wood. Pala's losses thus far are 900
killed, while those of General Wood
are seven killed and nineteen wounded.
Pala and his remaining followers, in
accordance with Moro tradition, prefer
death to capture.
General Wood, with detachments
from the Fourteenth cavalry, the Sew
enteenth, Twenty-Second, Twenty
third infantry, and constabulary scouts.
Lad driven Pala and his followers into
a swamp which has been surrounded.
Pala was noted slave trader and
warrior when the Americans occupied
the islands. Later he escaped with his
followers to the island of Pula Sekar,
near Borneo. One of Paya's leaders de-
serted and took refuge in the British
settlement at Lahad. Pala, discover
ing his whereabouts, landed with fol-
lowing and demanded of the British
magistrate that he turn the deserter
piled with and Pala ordered a massa-
ere. Twenty-Five persons, including
several British, were killed. Pala es-
capped to the island of Joio and organ
lied the present uprising. 1t is re-
ported that the Borneo authorities re-
quested General Wood to apprehend
Pala. dead or alive, anG turn him over
to them.

Denver. Colo, May 16.-Simon Gug.

ing plans for building which will
cost approximately 100000. A tee.
gram to this effect was received by
President Victor Anderson yesterday.
and read in the class rooms amid wild
cheers of delight from the students.
short time ago Mr.. Guggenheim.
out of gratitude for the birth of a son
and heir, made a gift to the school OF
$4,000. This money. it was stlpu-
lated, was to be used in the erection Of
, a building in honor of mis- baby. The
design and plans for a building were
left entirely to the board of trustees.
The board has had plan drawn, but
it was found that according to this
plan the building would cost nearly
100000.
The plan was forwarded to Mr.. Gug-
genheim in New York City. The tele
gram yesterday stated that it was per.
fectly satisfactory, and that the donor
would stand good for the increase in
cost.
The new building will be known as
Guggenheim hall. 1t will be two
stories and basement. with tile man

will be placed a large clock that cap

WORLD MAY COMPETE.
Canal Commission Will Buy Ships in
Open Market.

Washington. May 1.-THE executive
committee of the Isthmian Canal Com
mission has decided to purchase in
the markets of the world the material
and ships necessary for the building
of the Panama canal.
This important decision was reached
with some reluctance, because it was
appreciated by Secretary Taft and the
executive committee that there would
surely be a great outcry from two
great interests in this country, the
producers of material and the ship
owners, If the purchases were not linn
tied to the American products. But it
was decided that the money consid-
Grafton was so great that it could not
be ignored, for it was held that in
some cases fully fifty per cent. more
would be charged for Material needed
in canal construction than the same
goods could be produced for in Europe.
Chief Engineer Wallace, for in
stance, showed that two ships in addi-
tion to the ones running between New
York and Colon and owned by the
Panama railroad, We're absolutely nee
essary to carry the food supply and
material needed for the work. No
American ship could be bought at any
reasonable price, and when it came to
building such ships it was found, ac-
cording to Secretary Taft's statement,
that while he can buy two 2,G00ton
ships in Europe for $75O,0O0, it would
cost $1,4OOO00 to build such ships
here. And, in addition, while the Eu-
ropean ship could be had at once, it
would take at least eighteen months
to secure American boats.
AS to material needed for canal con
struction, the committee decided that
by reserving to itself the right to pur-
chase in the worlds markets, it would
at least oblige American manufactur-
ers to give them the benefit of their
foreign prices if they wish to sell
goods to the committee.
Secretary Taft explained that he
felt obliged to endorse this decision
because having given Congress every
opportunity to give contrary decision,
he felt that the very terms of tie ca
nal act provided that it should be con-
structed at the lowest possible cost.

legally elected clerk of Las Animas
county Judge r. r. Ross has so de-
cided in the County Court in the con-
test case brought by Garcia against

Gas Near Fort Collins.

Denver, May IA Fort Collins dis
patch says: Last Saturday well dig.
gers engaged in digging a well for wa
ter for domestic uses on ]. l.. Rowe's
farm, five miles northwest of Fort
Collins, encountered strong flow of
natural gas at depth of 1G0 feet. The
well was piped and about twenty feet
of the piping left sticking above the
surface.
A lighted match was applied to the
gas and it famed up two feet above
the piping and burned all night, giving
forth a splendid light visible for miles.
The gas is still burning with the flame
pouring out of the top of the piping.
The well also has strong smell OF
oil and experts are confident that the
Poudre valley is on the eve of a big
oil boom. The well was drilled by

GIRLS CAUSE TROUBLE
MEMBERS OF THE BOARD REslea
Disagreement in Regard to Colorado
Industrial School for Girs-Ex-
pected Change Of MANAGEMENT.

Disagreement in Regard to Colorado
Industrial School for GirIs-Es-
pected Change of Management.
Denver. May 16.-Following Is the
Republicans version Of the Industrial
School difficulties:
All Of the five members of the board
of control of the State Industrial
School for Girls have resigned, not
Just three of them as stated yesterday.
The designations have been In the
hands OF the governor for the lass
week and he will appoint a new board
to reorganize the work at that institu-
ton.
The members of the present board
are Mrs. Martha Taft, Mrs. ]. B. Hun
ter. Mrs. Harriet G. R. Wright. Rob-
ert NJ. Colder all of this city. and DR..
Josephine Peavy Of Colorado Springs.
The dissolution of the board Is the re-
suit of abolishing corporal punishment.
as stated yesterday, and the trouble
has been brewing for some time. Mrs.
Taft, Mr.. Colder and DR.. Peavey are
majority OF the board and they are
opposed to inflicting corporal punish
ment. Miss Emma Page is the super
intendent and she is a disciple OF Solo
mon, whose wisdom was interpreted
by the Indiana pedagogue when he
said: mo liclSin', no learnin'." The
minority of the board, composed Of
Mrs. Hunter and Mrs. Wright, sides
with the matron.
Starting with this disagreement. the
trouble grew until, it is said. one mem
Der at least went around peddling
scandalous tales about other members.
The majority have been ready to re-
sign for some time, and have an en-
tirely new head, but it has been i'm.
possible to bulge the minority. Gov.
ernor Mcdonald was able to use soma
sort of hypnotic influence and finally
secured the designations.
Since corporal punishment has been
abolished, it is alleged, there has been
lax discipline at the institution as well
as numerous escapes, and it is charged
by the majority that the matron takes
that way of demonstrating that the
place cannot be properly conducted
without plenty of whipping.
The law requires that there be three
women on the board, and how Gov
ernor Mcdonald will make it up is q
problem. 1t has been suggested that
he name a board which will agree to
put the management of the school
practically under the direction of DR.
Paddleford. the superintendent of the
boys school at Golden. DR.. Paddle
ford has made such fine record In
the work that a competent matron
working under his supervision would
1t is argued. make q success OF the
girk' institution.

FORT COLLINS TRAGEDY.
Robert Miller Resists Arrest and Is
Shot by City Marshal.

Denver. May 14.-A News special
from Fort Collins last night says:
Robert Miller, proprietor of the City
Bottling Works. while resisting arrest
was shot and instantly killed this aft
ernoon by City Marshal William NJ.
Richart.
Mr.. Richart was given two warrants
this afternoon against Miller one a
charge of selling liquor aDi the other
keeping a disorderly house. Mr.. Rich
art asked Deputy Sheriff Whitaker
and Mike Meredith to accompany him
and assist in case of trouble. The
three entered the bottlng works, on
North College avenue, shortly after 4
O'Clock. Richart stated his business
and inquired for Miller. Miller was in
rear room. and came to meet the
marshal. The warrant for selling
liquor was read to him anI accepted.
Miller then announced his intention of
going with the marshal and securing
bail.
Mr.. Richart. however. pulled sec
ond warrant out of his pocket. and told
Miller that he had another warrant
charging him with keeping disor-
derly house, and that it was his duty
to search the place for liquor. Miller
refused to allow the search to proceed.
and stated that while willing to be ar
rested on the charge of selling LIQUOR,
that his establishment should not be
searched.
Marshal Richart then started behind
the counter for the purpose Of secur-
ing bottles supposed to contain certain
liquor, and was struck In the face by
Miller with his fist. Richart drew his
revolver and said: "Now, Mr.. Miller
Il am here as an officer, and as such 1t
is my duty to search this house, and
will do so, but you must stop this
funny business as | want no trouble.
Miller. who. while an aged man, was
remarkably quick. seized beer bottle
and struck Richart across the brow, in
flicting deep cash three inches long.
He struck at him a second time, and
missed as Richart staggered back.
Miller reached under the counter and
the marshal. fearing that he was after
a gun. pulled the trigger, the bullet
penetrating the heart.
Will Richart was recently elected
city marshal in a remarkably hot cam
paign between the license and anti
license parties. He ran Independent of
either party, and was elected by vote
OF three to one. He has for several
years been deputy sheriff. and is re
garded as one of the best officers the
county ever had. No one regrets the
shooting more than he.
Robert Miller came to Fort Collins
about twenty-five years ago, and has
for twenty years been in the bottling
business. He made no secret of sell
ing liquor. and was fined several times
for the offense in the District Court.
About eight years ago he was con-
victed OF selling liquor and fined
$1,000 by Judge Bouton. and the fine
was suspended during good behavior.
Fourteen indictments were recently
given against Miller. and the warrant
ssued to-day leading to his arrest and
death was the result.
