Urgent Appeal From Browns
. ville for Their
Removal.
PANIC GOVERNS WOMEN
Koosevelt Refuses to Act Until He
lias Investigated, and Citizens
Renew Their Request for
Immediate Action.
DALLAS. Tex.. Aug. 18. (Special.) U.
S. Senator Charles A. Culberson today
received the rollowing reply to a telegram
pent by him on Friday:
"Washington. Aug. 18. Hon. C. A.
Culberson, Dallas. Tex., Your tele
gram requesting removal of colored
troops from Fort Brown having been
submitted to the President, he directs me
to advise you no action can be taken
on your request until full Investigation
and report as to Incident in question
has been made and action taken by the
Department. AINS WORTH, '
"Acting Secretary of War."
Mr. Culberson today received a second
appeal from citizens of Brownsville
signed by 20 persons of prominence,
among them the County Judge, Sheriff,
bankers and newspaper publishers. The
telegram reads:
"We appeal to you again In our great
necessity. Our position Is misunderstood.
We cannot convince our women and chil
dren that another outbreak may not oc
cur at any time. Their condition is de
plorable. They will scarcely venture out
of their homes and feel secure. We are
maintaining a heavy guard and patrol of
armed citizens every night. We know
that the accidental discharge of a firearm,
or any overt act of any citizen and our
citizens are fearfully excited would pre
cipitate upon us the whole negro force
at Brownsville, and we do not believe
that their officers could restrain or con
trol them. There are only five officers
present, and the consequences would be
a fearful loss of life and probably the
destruction of the city.
"Many of our citizens have been re
moving their families elsewhere. A Tex
as town should not be left unaided In
this condition. We demand the Immedi
ate removal of these negro troops from
our city, and we earnestly ask you to
use your official and personal Influence
with the President to this end. We have
been unable up to this date to obtain
any relief. Please answer quick."
Mr Culberson said the message received
by him from Washington was In reply to
a message sent by him and Senator
Bailey to the Department.
YELLOW PRESS INSISTENT
'ot Satisfied With French Cabinet's
Attitude Toward Pope.
PARIS. Aug. 18. (Special.) Even the
calm declaration of the government after
yesterday's Cabinet meeting that the act
of December. 1905, 'which pronounces the
separation of church and state, is a law
and that, as the state only knows Its own
laws, the government will see that they
are enforced, has not had the effect of
quieting the agitation of.the yellow sec
tion of the Paris press, which demands In
large headlines, "Will Uiey go to Canossa
or the Pope sue for mejcy?" The pros
pect for disorder appears less as time
passes. The vast body of the French
I 'alholics do not seem to be disposed to
follow any impulsive lead.
"Any suggested modification regarding
ti e change In form of the cultural asso
ciations must come from the papacy di
rectly, or else indirectly through the
French bishops," a correspondent was
told at the Ministry of Public Instruction
today. "Those who figure on the slight
est concession on the part of this govern
ment are making a singular error. This
Is final."
At Archbishop Richards' place there Is
a "bureau of Information." which exists,
apparently, for the purpose of repeating
"We are in the hands of God and the
Holy Father. We will emerge triumph
ant from this trial as from many others."
Canossa Is the castle In Northern Italy,
now In ruins, which was the scene of the
penance of Emperor Henry IV before
Tope uregory VII In 1077. The expression
"go to Canossa" is proverbially used to
denote a surrender to the claims of the
church. .
STAND FIRM, SAY FAITHFUL
Pope's Secretary Deluged With Tele
grams About French Crisis.
ROME, Aug. 18. (Special.) Cardinal
Merry del Val's holidays at Castle Gan
doelfo are busy ones. He is in constant
communication by telephone with the
Vatican and Is deluged with telegrams
from France, most of which approve the
Pope's firm attitude with respect to the
law of saparation, while some suggest
remedies and expedients with a view to
causing the French Government to capit
ulate. The Papal Secretary Is uncommunica
tive, but your correspondent is Informed
by members of his household that the
French Government Is coming to realize
the necessity of having the Catholic
Church organized and It will either co
operate with the episcopate or come to
the terms of the Pope.
BLOW TO ENGLISH CAPITAL
Carry More Insurance in South
America Than Any Others.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 18.-(Special.)-Vniess
they can successfully hide behind
tholr earthquake clauses, the English in
surance companies will be hard hit by
the fire at Valparaiso. They carry a
large amount of risks there. All of the
great English companies, the Orient,
London & Lancashire, London & Liver
pool & Globe. Alliance, Commercial
Union. Xorwloh Union, Palatine and
others have agents in Valparaiso and are
large writers of insurance. The English
companies in their hunt for new fields
have covered South America better than
those of other countries. Germany comes
second. It la probable that no American
companies harl risks in Chile.
"We are anxiously awaiting full news
of the destruction of Valparaiso," said
an agent of one of the English com
panies yesterday. "All English com
panies carry heavy risks In South Amer
ica Should the city be completely ob
literated by fire, our losses will be tre
mendous. I feel certain, however, from
the reports I have seen, that we will
be protected to a large extent by our
earthquake-clause policies. It may not
CITIZENS
E
be news to you, but the earthquake
clause was originated to protect us In
our South American writings."
CAPITAL OF CHILE IX RUINS
Beautiful City of 250,000 People Is
Santiago de Chile.
Santiago, whose population" is nearly
250.000, Is located on a plain east of Val
paraiso, at an elevation of 1830 feet, on
a railway from Valparaiso, about 75 miles
distant. Santiago is one of the finest cit
ies on the two American continents. It
has a climate similar to that of St. Louis
or Washington.
Magnificent shops and commercial build
ings characterize the city, while money
Is so plentiful that the equipages can be
compared with those of New York. Many
of the private houses are palatial, and
the toilets of the women are superb. The
Alameda on a pleasant afternoon Is
crowded with handsome carriages, with
liveried coachmen and footmen, like Cen
tral Park, New York.
The Alameda Is 600 feet in width, broken
by four rows of poplar trees, and
stretches the full length of the city, four
miles, and is dotted with a long line of
statues.- At one end are Exposition
grounds and horticultural gardens, im
proved to tho highest degree of landscape
architecture. The National Museum of
Chile, modeled on the Crystal Palace in
London, a zoological garden, magnificent
opera-house and magnificent palaces of
carved sandstone, often 100 or 200 feet
square, can be seen along this thorough
fare. As an illustration of Chilean civiliza
tion, the opera-house is said to be the
finest In the Western Hemisphere. It is
built on the European plan with four
balconies, supported by brackets so there
are no pillars. to obstruct the view. The
leading hotel has $300,000 worth of fur
niture from Paris and a $5000 chef from
the same place. The bar Is of silver and
crystal.
To what extent these gorgeous improve
ments have been damaged cannot yet be
stated.
BY THE BUFF
STACKPOI.B ATTEMPTS TO ESCAPE
AT I,OS ANGELES.
On Trial For the Murder of Joel
i
Scheck Case Goea to the
Jury.
L09 ANGELES, Aug. 18. Ernest Stack
pole, whose trial for the murder of Joel
Scheck was concluded today, while wait
ing In Department 1 at the Courthouse
this afternoon for the verdict of the
Jury, made a clever and almost success
ful effort to escape from the building.
Unnoticed by Bailiff Harrington, he
Btrolled out through the door of the
courtroom into the chamber of Judge
James, where an open door led into the
corridors of the court. He had scarcely
entered the Judge's chambers when Har
rington caught sight of him and sprang
for the opeh door. Harrington succeeded
in rushing in front of Stackpole and
throwing the door shut and locking It.
He then clapped handcuffs on the pris
oner and led him back into the court
room. Stackpole was cool and collected and
had nothing to say after the episode.
It is the second time during the pres
ent trial that he has made the same
sort of effort to escape from the offi
cers.
The Stackpole. trial entered on its
final day today. The ease has been
on trial now eight days. All that re
mained to close the case when court
opened this morning was the conclus
ion of the address of Deputy District
Attorney Fleming and the delivery of
the instructions of the court to the
Jury.
The case has been a sensational one
from the start and the public attend
ance has been larger than that of any
murder trial in Los Angeles in years.
On one occasion the crowd became so
boisterous and unruly that they broke
through the panels of the courtroom
door after it had been closed to them.
Women chiefly composed the crowd.
The testimony of Mrs. Scheck, wife
of the murdered man, was the most
sensational adduced. She made a full
and free confession of her part in the
plot and murder and her illicit rela
tions with Stackpole. The night of
June 18, shortly after midnight, Mrs.
Scheck related how Stackpole came to
the Scheck home with a dark mask
over his face, and was admitted to
the bedroom of Scheck by herself.
There he shot Scheck twice with a
pistol, killing him instantly. Stackpole
then left the house and after giving
sufficient time for him to escape. Mrs.
Scheck gave the alarm. She said two
burglars had killed her husband.
In his own defense, in the present
trial, stackpole went on the stand and
made a general denial of the charge.
There was little corroborative testi
mony on either side. A package of 90
love letters written by Mrs. Scheck to
Stackpole were introduced by the pros
ecution, and supplied many of the sa
lacious details of the case.
Stackpole is a carpenter by trade
and came formerly from Butte City.
He is about 34 years of age. Mrs.
Scheck is 19. Her husband was slight
ly older.
After Deputy District Attorney
Fleming had concluded the closing ad
dress for the people this morning.
Judge James charged the jury. His
Instructions required but 17 minutes to
read. The case was finaly given into
the hands of the jury at 11:54 and
they retired. Ex-Fire Chief Strohm
was placed In charge of the Jury.
At a late hour tonight word came from
the Jury-room that no verdict would be
reached tonight. By instruction of the
court, the Jury was locked up for the
night. The courtroom gossip tonight was
that the Jury had agreed to a verdict, ex
cept with regard to punishment.

CAMPED ON HILLS
Survivors of Valparaiso Look
on Burning City.
Many have fled to sea
Destruction Less Thanat San Fran
cisco, but Loss of Life Much
Greater Principal Buildings
of Santiago Are Ruined.
GALVESTON. Aug. 18 (Special.) While
It has been impossible up to the present
time for representatives of the press at
Valparaiso to get through any sort of a
complete story of the damage done by
the earthquake that swept over the South
American coast, it is possible at this hour
to arrive at an apparently safe estimate
of the result of the horror. It is by no
means so destructive as the San Fran
cisco earthquake, as far as the money
damage is concerned, but the loss of life
will be much larger and the cities that
are stricken are not in a position to com
mand the aid that the Golden Gate me
tropolis could.
Ships Flee With Refugees.
The damage In Valparaiso was most se
vere. So far as the news received . here
indicates, about one-quarter of the city
is in ruins and every one has fled. Homes
have been abandoned and the former In
habitants of the city are now encamped
in the hills and open spaces outside of
the town, or are now at sea, refugees on
the vessels that were In the harbor. The
ships made for sea as soon as the refu
gees could be taken aboard, as it was
feared by the authorities that a tidal wave
was due, and It was necessary, therefore,
to take all precautions necessary. None
of the ships has as yet succeeded In get
ting back there.
It is not alone at Valparaiso, however,
that damage has resulted. Vina del Mar,
a suburb, whose population is about 9000,
is reported to be a mass of ruins. Qult-
roque, a small place east of there, and
Limache are also badly damaged, but up
to the present time no loss of life is
known.
Santiago Full of Ruins.
Santiago, Chile, is also badly damaged,
and, although the city is absolutely cut
off from outside communication, it is
now known that a terrible shock de
stroyed ail or nearly all of the larger
structures in the business section; The
loss of life there, as at Valparaiso, must
remain problematic for a time, most of
the messages received here simply indi
cating that certain persons escaped with
their lives. According to a' brief mes
sage received tonight from Abernal Has
tings, South American representative of
a big Eastern hide concern, every struc
ture that fronted on the Alamade high
way is in ruins, and, as this is the
busiest thoroughfare in the capital city.
It seems certain that the damage must
be very great. However, as the houses
destroyed are only small, it will be pos
sible to repair the damage soon.
Troops Drive Out Homeless.
The Chilean troops are in absolute con
trol of the situation, and have driven all
persons out of the city with the excep-
tion of certain construction forces, which
have already been pressed into service
to clear away the ruins and assist in
remedying the damage.
VALPARAISO TOTAL WRECK
People Flee toShips or Country.
Panic Prevents Relief Work.
GALVESTON. Texas, Aug. 18. Val
paraiso has been wrecked by earth
quake and Are and the few buildings
that escaped serious damage from the
earthquakes have either been burned
or are In immediate danger of being
burned.
The people are panic-stricken and
all attempts at organization have
proved futile. Martial law has been
proclaimed and an effort is being made
to calm the people, but with little hope,
as the quakes still continue up to this
afternoon, five shocks being; felt to
day, although not so frequent or vio
lent, but enough to keep the people
in a state of terror.
The Mexican cable was in operation
all day to Valparaiso, but to interior
points all overland wires are down and
It will be several days before they are
restored. The entire business portion
of .Valparaiso has been' destroyed. The
authorities will not permit any lights
in the buildings and at dark the cable
office was closed for the night.
The cable office closed at dusk on
account of the lack of lights and be
cause of declaration of martial law,
compelling operators to keep off the
streets for fear of being shot by
guards.
The dead and injured are estimated
at 1000, while wild rumors place the
figures at 4000. However, owing to
lack of systematic report, all figures
are speculation.
The shocks have continued since
Thursday night and five slight shocks
were felt today. The operators of the
cable company have deserted their
posts, with one exception.
The shipping in the harbor escaped
damage and every vessel is a haven
fqr refugees. All buildings have been
deserted. Practically nothing has been
done in the way of clearing wrecks
or 'searching for dead bodies and la
borers refuse to- enter the ruins be
cause of the continued shocks. Sol
diers will force the rescue work to
morrow. FIRE SPREADS THROUGH CITY

Warsaw Is Full of Dead
and Wounded.
WARSAW, Aug. 18. Three bombs were
thrown today at the Governor-General's
carriage from a balcony in a house in
Natolinska street. Two of them explod
ed behind the carriage without damaging
it, but breaking all the windows of the
neighboring houses. The perpetrators of
the outrage escaped.
The Governor-General was walking
from his carriage toward the palace when
a young man, apparently about 22 years
of age and looking like a university stu
dent, pushed through the crowd on the
street-corner and flung a bomb toward
the Governor and his staff, who were
then passing across the lawn in front of
the palace. As the conical-shaped object
struck the ground it exploded with ter
rific force, and the Governor and mem
bers of his staff were thrown to' the
grounds.
It is announced that the Governor
General sustained concussion of the
brain.
. A detachment of troops on guard on
the premises immediately charged the
crowd and a hand-to-hand encounter en
sued, in which half a dozen were serious

Infantry patrols, reinforced by artillery,
have been called out. and it is reported
that, owing to the increase In the revo

BERLIN, Aug. IS. The Warsaw corre

hospitals are so overcrowded that pa
tients are obliged to lie on the floors and

In the morgue there are still lying 38

POLICE RESIGX WHOLESALE
Terrorism Drives Them From Serv
iceMonarchists' Election Plan. ,
ST. PlSTERSBURG,-Aug. 18. Since the
acute revival of terrorism, the Ministry
of the Interior has been flooded with
complaints forwarded by Chiefs of Police
in all parts of the Empire to the effect
that the police are resigning by the
wholesale, and it is evident that if this
state of affairs continues it may com
pel a practical replacement of police by
troops.
The Cabinet has given serious attention
to the situation in Poland, and the ques
tion of dispatching considerable rein
forcements to troops there and sending
out punitive expeditions has been dis
cussed, but no decision has been reached.
The Monarchist organs, most of which
are classed by the liberals as Black
Hundreds, are trying to arrange a na
tional congress at Kieff, with the view
to placing tickets in the field for the
Parliamentary elections,- which, it Is now
believed, will be held in November.
Premier Stolypin yesterday authorized a
flat denial of various reports which have
been in circulation here with regard to
revision of the fundamental law, declar

a commission Is now working on revision
of the law governing the election of mem
