' HE CONFESSED, ON THE SCAFFOLD HOW HE CHLOROFORMED AND BUR 4 NED HIS WIFE. " Strange Case of Cassius Clay De- . clared, by Court to be Insanity How a Mother Sacrificed . I Her Own Life to Save -. Children. San Francisco, July -14. Stand ing on the gallows at theSanQaen tin prison, with jfleath onlv a half minute away, P. C. Fisher this morning told , the awful story of how he bad murdered his wife, con fessing his guilt in every detail. He had insured ber life, he said, for the sum of $.1,000. She had the toothache and he had her take chloroform to relieve the pain When she was under the influence of the dru' he poured kerosene oil over her body and set fire to it. ' The neighbors came rushing in. and he told them' a story of an ac cidfcDt, but the facta did not bear out this assertion. The woman died in frightful agony. This was "on April 23. ' ' :- AH through the trial Fisher pro tested his innocence, but in the face of death he broke down and made a full confession. While the slory of his crime still echoed through the vaults . of the grea prison, the trap was sprung and Fisher was hung by the neck untii he was dead. - W. B. Howard of Santa Clara county, and Ung Ting Bow, King's county murderer, will be hanged within ten days. Cassius M. Clay, the Sage of White Hall, was declared by a jury fin J udge. Turpin's court today at Richmond to be of unsound mind His affairs - will be placed in the hands of a committee appointed by the court. General Clay did not appear in court, as he is still very ill at White Mall, but be was represented by an attorney appointed by the judge. When General Clay was told by his servant, Joe Perkins, of the action of the court, he sat up in bed and, grabbing his sevolver, declared he would kill, the first person who tried to take him from' bis home and place him in the asylum. The action of the court was based upon an affidavit filed by - his 1 chil dren, and General Clay said that he was allowed only a scanty living by his children, and now they want ed to rob him of that. : None of the witnesses who testified, i a court . to day had. been near General Clay tor montns. I be doctor who at tended him on Tuesday says he is perfectly sane. General Clay's former child wife, Dora Clay Brock: was to have -re turned to White Hall, today;" but she didnot put in an - appearance and it is believed she was waiting to bear tbe action of the court. General Clay will not be removed from White Hall, as it is believed if such an attempt was made and he found he could not repulse the arresting party he would kill him self with the huge bowie knife hanging by his head. Cleveland, July 7. Mtb. Gui- eeeppi Canovino, a working woman her; 4hiee children and .several other women who work in the vine yards east of the city, were walk ing on the JNew xork,' Chicago and St Louis Railroad tracks to day. The party was crossine a trestle when a fast train - approached. Only by lying down on a clank at the edge of the bridge .could the women escape being struck by . the train. ; Mrs Canovino thought not of her own safety.- Her only pur pose was to save the children. She pushed the little ones off the trestle to the plauk.aud to do it she was compelled to lie across the track. The last - child I was placed in a position of safety as the eneine. bore down upon the woman and crushed out her life. " a-iiu- Aroor. jYiicn.. .iniv c. Albert.

'. . Oa this skin was placed a rub ber tissue, held in place by a dres sing, all kept moist by a common salt solution. This was renewed every day or 7 ninety-six hours, w,hen it was found that the cells of the frogekin having been supplied with blood, the skin had attached itself to the hand and showed a healthy-red growth. Ssattle, July I5. -There is a bro ken hearted littla girl in "Seattle this morning broken-hearted ba cajuse a stony-hearted transporta tion company would not permit her to travel to Whiie Horde in far off Alaska to see her mother. Last evening little 11-year-old Edna Davis sat in the office of the Pacific Coast Steamship Company and eagerly scanned the faces of all who came to the clerk's desk.- She wanted to go to Skagway on the City of Seattle which sailed -dast night. She was well supplied with money, in fact for so small a girl she had a very large amount. -She had long planned for the trip and she avowed her ability to take care of herself. , But the steamship company steadfastly refused, to carry chil dren unaccompanied by: a parent or guardian. - So little Edna was on the verge of tears as the evening wore away and no one appeared who was willing to stand sponsor for her during the voyage. ; In reponse to questions of those who interested themselves in her behalf the little girl said: v "If I can only get to Skagway I can go from' there to White Horse, where my mother lives all bv her self. But if nobodv'll look after me I can't go tonight and I must "her lips quivered and eyes filled with tears. "You see" she continued, have been down here to school just her "I this winter and now I want to go home. My papa lives in Dawson, but I'm going to White Horse. "I won t bother anybody, but the steamboat folks eay I must have somebody to take tbe 'sponsi bility' of me. I could go alone jubt as well as not, but they won't Jet me, and 1 do want to see mamma, so bad," and the tears came again. Though 1 little Edna's story be came generally known around the dock and on the steamer no one could be found who wished to ac cept the responsibility of the tem porary guardianship of the little homesick girl, bo it was that the big ship slowly backed off the wharf into, the outer darkness, leaving behind a heartsick, homesick, broken-hearted bit of humanity, who lefused to be comforted. Canyon City, - Col., July 12. Three engines and twenty ' cars of a freight train jumped the Denver and Rio Grande track, , , in Royal George this afternoon, and plunged into the Arkansas river4 sheer fall of. 2.000 feet. - . -The engines have not yet been found. Tea freight cars are also missing, n ine river . is , very , deep, and. high, and the current runs at a terrific .speed. - . ; 1 he three,, engineers, a nreman and a brakeman have disappeared in the wreck. ., The accident occurred near Hang ing iiricige in tne rioyai uorge, about 6 miles east of Canyon City. t is the most picturesque railroad spot in the West. .. The gorge is only fifty feet wide, but.-the rocks rise perpendicularly from the Ar kansas river to a height of more than a third of a mile. The freight train was bound east. Two of the engines were "dead," being drawn along with the cars. : Without warning, the locomotive that was furnishing the power, jumped the track, bumped along on the ties for a few feet, and then' plunged into the abyss, dragging the- other, en gines and ten of the cars : after it. Two-of the firemen jumped.-, The engineers refused ? to leave their post and fell to certain death in the torrent 2,000 feet below. . A brake- man was thrown into : tbe gorge when the cars ran - off the track. Breaking of the coupling saved , ten rear cars from falling into the riv er. .-: ; .,7. - The Pacific express was backed to Canyon City and its engine took a wrecking crew and physicians" to the scene. - ; " They found no trace of the en gines or of the cars that fell down the gorge, and .there were no injur ed to be treated, ' THE NEW SHAKIROGIL HER BEHAVIOR ON" THISE SIDE NOT WHOLLY SATIS- : FACTORY TO HER OWNER ' Or to her Designer Change ofi Mast, and" of Rigging The v Warning That a Banker Sounds. New York, July 12, New York World: Sir Thomas Lipton is not entirely satisfied with Shamrock III., nor is Dasipner William Fifer his commander-in-chief, especially after the challeeger's showing Wed nesday over a thirty-mile leeward and windward course. . That is one reason why the Shamrock III. will be towed to Erie Basin today. In the South. Brooklyn ship hospital she is to have her underbodyN scraped aod ' re-enamelled) She is also to,.be fit- f ted with the spare ' mast that was shipped over and has njt been step- , ped. It is the largest made for aL cup challenger. ' Sir Thomas did not admit that it was a disappointment in her per- . formances that caused; the deterna- : ination to change her rig. - Nearly every day there has been an alter ation of he trim and experiments tending to improve her hull. Probably the meat unfavorable comparison yet shown against the challenger was that of Wednesday, in a breeze' 'ranging- from bix to ten miles an hour,, over a course dead down wind and a beat back, she covered th9 thirty legged miles ' in three hours twenty-two minutes and forty seconds, and beat her- ri val only four minutes and nine sec onds, without counting time allow ance. , Sir Thomas had no comment ta make on the low margin by which tbe challenger beat the older Clyde built racer, nor did he speak of -shipping a new mast., The new pole is thirty teet loDger tnan now used. .: ' ' The race Wednesday was pretty throughout and a nice, tussel be twen the pair - " Shamrock III. could not rua away from her fleet pursuer, -but her superior acreage of cloth count- tack and a long board of more thart an hour on port- tack, laid ' them. where they could make' it one leg ' iUl UUIUOi vu luo luok luiu niuu- ward a slant ' of the air fanned -' Shamrock 1., putting her to weath er, and it looked as if , she might win, which eha probably, would have done if there had been five miles to go. ; " St Paul, Minn., July 16.

"There never was a better time for. bankers to be . wary," he said "than now. . We can see, as .others cannot, signs of financial trouble.
