UTICA. \. Y, July 2s.-Former
Judge Alton B. Parker in an
interview here today discussed
~ the coming State election. He
declared that the Democratic

fll the office of Governor, and men
toned, among others. eX-Judge D.

But" said the interviewer, you
have not mentioned Mr.. Hearst, who is
discussed every day as a candidate"
The last utterance of Mr.. Hearst I
have read" said the Judge, was to the
effect that he intended to accept the
nomination of the Independence
League"
But that was June r." said the in
terviewer, and since then men who
were at work during the year build
ing up the independence League have
been openly striving for the control of
the Democratic caucuses in order to
secure delegates to the Democratic
and some such delegates have been
elected"
While know" Parker replied,
that some delegates to the Democratic
convention favorable to Mr.. Hearst
have been chosen, ii would seem as if
all this should be credited to over
jealous friends. for certainly Mr.
Hearst is too shrewd a man to believe
it possible that a Democratic conven-
ton will ever be made up Of delegates
so absolutely pusillanimous as to sur
render to one demanding that the
party deliver up to him the honor and

According to advices from Chicago
Bishop ]. B. Pitaval who has been IN

panic and probably great loss OF life

ragged Sunday. The steeple of the
cathedral was struck by lightning
while he was officiating at yespers and
the bolt glanced off onto the room
of the archbishop's house adjoining.
Stopping in the midst of the impres
siye services he calmed the congre
cation by his presence of mind and
reassuring words and the worshipers
left the building without disorder.
The archbishop's house was set on
fire by the lightning and before the
flames could be extinguished was dam
aged with contents to between $4,000
and $4,000. Sparks ignited the wood
work and the fire smoldered under

London, July 1S.-Those in position
to give authoritative information re-

the late Alfred Belt, the South African
flnancier, have not given 1t to the
newspapers. The estimates range from
SIPS, 900, 900 to $165, 100000, but 1t will
probably be found when the terms
of the will are published that Belts
fortune was less than fifty millions
About third of this amount 1t is ex-
pected will be bequeathed to national
purposes of Great Britain and South
Africa, mainly of an educational char
acter as was great part Of the for
tune of his most intimate friend, the
late Cecil Rhodes. Belts married sis

mother and brother probably will re-
ceive considerable amounts.

MAY CALL GRAND JURY
Charges Made Against Schmitz and
Charges Against Reagan May
Be Aired in Court.

San Francisco, Cal, July 1S-Grand
Juror John C. McElroy believes that
there is work for the grand jury in
the charges Police Commissioner Rea-
gan makes against Mayor Schmitz
and in the charges Mayor Schmitz
makes against Reagan. He said to-
day he would take steps to convene
the grand jury to investigate them.
The charges of grating in connec-
ton with French restaurants, liquor
licenses, and questionable resorts
against the mayor, McElroy thinks,
are serious enough to warrant pros
ecution if they can be substantiated.
He says both the mayor and Reagan
should be summoned before the grand
jury to tell what they know. McElroy
is known as an aggressive, energetic
member Of the jury, and when he says
he will take steps to call the grand
jurors together 1t is believed he means
business.
