Overcomes Determined Struggle to
Save Rag of Money..
3POKAa Wash., Feb. 4. (Special.)
In a desperate encounter on the second
lloor of her home tonignt with an armed
and masked thug clad in a long black
gown like a priest's cassock. Mrs. Frank
Twist was rendered unconscious toy her

lasted several minutes, whipped a bottle
of chloroform out of his pocket and' sat
urating a handkerchief with it applied the
poisonous fumes to the woman's nostrils.
Mrs. Twist is over 50 years old and
weighs about 275 pounds. The hand to
hand combat and the drugging followed a
determined attempt on her part to prevent

containing money he had taken from her
trunk after he had forced her at the point
of a revolver to show where the money
was. The woman was found Ring un
conscious on the floor of tne room.
SAY BAY CITY IS FREE
Pronounced to Be Finally Clear of
Bubonic" Plague.
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 4. With the
discharge yesterday of the last patient
under treatment at the isolation hospital,
the city was officially declared to be free
of bubonic plague. Drastic precaution
ary measures are being adopted for the
purpose of preventing a recurrence of the
contagion in the Spring.
At a meeting this morning of the execu
tive committee of the citizens' health
committee, recently appointed by the
Mayor, it was decided to conduct a
"block to block" campaign against the
rats which infest the city and to inaugu
rate a "cleaning up" all over the city.
All regulations, ordinances and laws re
lating to health and sanitary conditions,
will be rigorously" enforced. This, with
the extermination of the rats and the im
proved sanitary conditions that will result,
will, it Is believed, render an outbreak of
the plague in the Spring very unlikely.
ONLY FIVE LIVES ARE LOST
Cymric Rescues Nearly All on Board
Burned! Steamer.
BOSTON. Feb. 4. A wireless dispatch
from the White Star Line steamer Cymric,
by way of South Welfleet, Mass., re
ceived tonight, told the story of the burn
ing of the Phoenix Line steamer St. Cuth
bert, with loss of lour men of the crew
and a stowaway and the rescue of the
remainder of the crew by the boats of
the Cymric.
The St. Cuthbert was constructed after
the same plan as the steamer St. Hugo,
now in this port, but is 2000 tons larger.
The St Cuthbert was 4 years old, and
was engaged in the New York-Antwerp
trade. From New York she usually took
a cargo of cotton, with a deckload of
cattle, sometimes as many , as 1400 head.
She once made a voyage to China and
Japan. From -Antwerp the steamer often
brought blooded horses to America. She
could steam IS knots, and the strangest
part of aU was the fact that the vessel
was fitted out with eight or nine of the
very latest marine fire-fighting ma
chines and was constructed with steel
decks and bulwarks.
Chief Officer Torrible, of the St. Hugo,
was second mate of the St. Cuthbert
until 12 months ago.
Harriman Has Money for Castle.
NEWBURG, N. Y., Feb. 4. In spite of

is engaged on the work. The monthly
payroll during the Winter reaches $13,000.
The house is built in the style of an
old English castle. Its total cost, it is
said, will approximate $4,OOQ,000.

been growing in intensity ever since. Rail
road traffic is demoralized and telegraph

MILLER'S' PLURALITY 1831
GOOD LEAD FOR NOMINATION
TO SEATTLE MAYORALTY.
Present Mayor, W. H. Moore, on Se
attle Ticket, and Gen. Metcalfe,
Democrat, AV111 Oppose Him.
. SEATTLK, Wash.. Feb. 4. (Specials
Indications pointed by the early returns
are borne out by the final count, and
John F. Miller will be the Republican
candidate for Mayor at the general elec
tion to be held March 3. Opposed to him
will be the present incumbent, Mayor
W. H. Moore, nominated on the Seattle
party ticket at yesterday's primaries
without opposition,, and General J. B.
Metcalfe, practically unanimously nomi
nated on the Democratic ticket.
The total vote cast was 25,631, nearly 75
per cent of the registration, and Miller
has a, plurality of 1891. Trimble, the busi
ness men's candidate, was second, and
George Russell, City Treasurer, was
third. The rest of the candidates for
Mayor on the Republican ticket strung
along with anywhere from a few more
than 1000 votes to 80, which was the num
ber polled by Oscar P. Oliver.
The hardest fight on the Republican
ticket was for City Treasurer, which was
won by Colonel William F. Prosser, a
Grand Army veteran, who led E. P.
Reber, a young man, by 380 votes.
The present Mayor, W. H. Moore, to
day expressed himself as pleased at the
result and declares that he will be elected
easily. He says tnat the great majority
of his following did not vote, as they
knew there was no necessity for so doing.
All the defeated candidates on the Re
publican ticket have declared their in
tention to support Miller at the general
election.

for the murder of Robert Holmes, a

DENVER, Feb. 4. J. F. Calbreath,
secretary of the American Mining Con
gress, lias returned from a tour of or
ganization of mining men for the es
tablishment of independent smelters.
He says that operators in Helena. Seat

the point of erecting plants of a later
and more economical type than those
of the trusts. In Southern California
the operators have bought and will re
model an old plant. In Utah, the mine-
operators have reached an agreement
on rates with the railroads, with a view
to erecting smelters. A meeting will
soon be held in Denver to organize
Colorado mlneowners for the same purpose.
