The Storm In Mexico the Worst In Tears,
Rivera Overflow Their Banks and
Complete the Cyclone's
- Deadly Work.
San Francisco, Oct. II. pistrict
Attorney Barnes today resumed the
cross exa mination of Theodore Durrant
on the subject of the component parts
of bromo-seltzer. Barnes said he
wished to show that a sufficient
quantity of bromo-seltzer would kill a
person who had been partly overcome
by gas. Durrant said he had a general
knowledge of the component parts of
the medicine and he denied that the
active principle of that medicine was
bromide of potassium.
Durrant became confused while being
questioned with regard to the notes of
the lecture given by Dr. Cheney on
the afternoon that Blanche Lamont
was murdered. The district attorney
asked Durrant if it was not a fact that
he did not take any notes at the lecture.
Durrant said that it was not. Durrant
was then asked if he did not ask Dr.
Gilbert F. Graham for his notes, at the
same time saying that he had notes
and could establish a good alibi. Dur
rant said he did not ask Graham for
the notes, as Graham came to him at
the prison and volunteered to lend him
his notes. Durrant said at the time of
Graham's visit he did not know whether
he had the notes or not, although he
afterward admitted that on April 10th
he asked a student named Glazier to
read his notes to him. Durrant said
his notes of the lecture were meager,
and as Glazier read his notes he ex
panded his own.
The weak part of Durrant's testi
mony v. as his statement that when he
was arrested on April 12th he did not
know whether he: had notes of Dr.
Cheney's lecture or not, although he
had compared rjis notes with student
Glazier's four days before and knew
that he was suspected of killing the
girl who had disappeared on the day
the lecture was given. Durrant said
he would have thej jury believe that
when he was arrested he had forgotten
whether or not . he , had notes of the
lecture. When questioned closely as
to when he fdrgot about the notes and
also the day when he remembered
about them. He said he forgot the
notes on April 13, the day before he
was arrested, and remembered them
again on April 17th. The court took
a recess until 2 o'clock.
HURRICANE'S WORK.
Continued Reports of Great Damage In
Mexico.
Guaymas, Mexico, Oct. 11. Ad
vices slowly reaching tnis port from
the Pacific ports of Mexico and ports
on the west side of the Gulf of Cali
fornia confirm the intelligence that
the hurricane which swept northward
during the four days September 30,
and October 1, 2, and 3 caused great
damage to property and shipping, and
that a number of lives were lost.
Telegraph wires were prostratrated
and information comes in by degrees
from below.
The hurricane crossed the Isthmus
of Tehuantepec, and swept up the
coast into , the Gulf of California, do
ing great damage. The hurricane was
accompanied by deluges of water that
completed the " ruin - the wind bad
wrought. At Topolobampo all the
houses of the American colony - were
greatly damaged and the custom-house
was wrecked. The Ahoray river north
of Topolobampo overflowed its banks
and destroyed sugar plantations and
sugar mills 30 miles away from the
channel of the stream. - -
The entire cane crop of the state of
Sinaloa as far as reported is completely
ruined, and the sugar lands and refin
eries at Ahone, the property of Mark
Sherwood, of Chicago, and his associ
ates, were ' demolished. The sugar
crop on the Youyi river, in the state
of Sonora, is also destroyed. The
damage to the sugar interests of So
nora and Sinaloa is estimated at
several millions of dollars.
Several coasting steamers are over
due at Guaymas, and great apprehen
sion is felt for their safety. The
Willamette Valley found safety in
Magdalena bay. Topolobambo is the
farthest point south from which ad
vices are at hand, and what the dam
ages are below that point is unknown,
but beleived to be great.
FEATURES OF THE FAST WEEK.
Heavy Volume of Business Causes Uncer
tainty About the Future. .
New York, Oct. 11. R. G. Dun &
Co's weekly review of trade tomorrow
will say:
The price barometer gives indica
tions that are not entirely favorable.
Cotton goods go up with increased
evidence that the crop of cotton is
short. Prices, of manufactured pro
ducts of wool, .hides and leather all
show some decline, the general abate
ment in new orders being the principal
oause. witn an immense volume ol
business, not much exceeded in the
largest month of the exceptional year
of 1892, and with evidence that in sev
eral branches the volume has surpassed
that of any previous year, there is a
growing uncertainty about the . near
future of industries. Money market
are neither strained nor threatening,
foreign exchange no longer raises ap
prehension, and all fears about the
great northern crops are past. There
have been few advances in wages of
labor within the past month, and only
a few works have been closed by strikes
for an advance.
The production of pig-iron October
1st, was the largest in the hi e
tory of the country, 201, 4ol tons
weekly, against 194,209 tons September
1; 196,000 having been the highest in
1892. Stocks unsold are not stated,
but substantially the whole production
is in execution of past orders. On the
other hand, new orders are exceedingly
small. There is a marked decrease in
almost all finished products. Tank
steel is lower, bar iron is offered by
some at concessions; plates are firm;
t ha at.mot.iiml 1om.r,fl kia rrotltr Ac.
creased, and wire rods declined 1 to
$29, with lower wire and a much re'
duced demand for-nails. Bessemer pig
has fallen $1 to $15 at Pittsburg, gray
lorge za cents, ana prices ot iron pro
ducts average one-half per cent
lower for the West. Discontinuance
of the demand, which could not be ex
pected to continue at the same rate
after prices had risen 52.9 per cent,
leaves actual consumption in question.
In woolen manufactures, a demand
for dress goods and some specialties
keeps many fully employed, but most
of the works making woolens, for
which new orders are scanty, find not
enough to keep them running.
i.ne cotton manufacturers is pecu
liarly favored by the rise in materials
and by the extraordinary stocks of
cotton brought over from last year, but
goods are also advancing.
The Inheritance-Tax Law.
San Francisco, Oct. 11. The ex
ecu tors of the Wilmerding estate pm
pose to test theconstitutionality of the
inheritance-tax law on the ground that
estates under $500 are exempt from the
tax. This is said to be in violation of
the provision of the constitution that
all legislation in this direction shall
have a uniform application. Judere
Coffey has upheld the act, and the case
will be carried to the supreme court,
Wilmerding, who was a wholesale
liquor merchant, left an estate valued
at $2,000,000. If the act is held to be
constitutional the Stanford estate will
have to pay a tax of $200,000.
To Protect Americans.
Washington, Oct. 11. By request
of Minister Terrell, for the protection
of missionaries in Turkey, and at the
instance of the state department, the
navy department has ordered the Mar-
blehead to the gulf of Alexandrett.
Minister Terrell has telegraphed that
orders have been issued in all the
provinces to protect Americans.
TWENTY VOLCANOES ACTIVE.
Magrnlflclent Sight Witnessed Among the
.Aleutian Islands.
San Francisco, Oct. 14. The rev
enue cutter Commodore Perry has re
turned from the northern sea, where
she has been confronted every night
for weeks by a gigantic line of flames.
As Captain Smith expressed it, "The
devil's stokers have been stirring . up
the subterranean sea of flames that is
supposed to lie thousands of feet above
Behring's bed, and as a consequence,
fully 20 of the present volcanoes in the
Aleutian chain are now active."
The line of islands lying between
Behring sea and the Pacific ocean be
long to the United States, and on
them are probably the only active vol
canoes lying withSsjAmerican terri
tory. Much has beenwritten . of Bo
gaslov island, which' has been throw
ing up a cloud of steam at times for
years; but it was supposed all the other
peaks on this singular line of islands
were extinct craters. Now, as far as
the eye can reach from any point in
Behring sea, adjacent, or even at a
distance from the famous seal islands
the rising smoke and steam can be
seen in both directions. The eruption
is general and so very lively that at
night the airy columns take on the re
flections of the fires deep in the earth
beneath the craters.'
Nowhere else on the globe can such
a sight be witnessed. In the daytime
only the white smoke or steam is vis
ible. As dusk comes and darkness
follows the wonder grows. The bright
columns show up in the cold Alaskan
night first, and, as it gets darker, other
vivid clouds of smoke are to be seen.
Sometimes, when the position of the
observer is advantageous, a dozen" or
15 of these modern pillars of fire are in
sight.
The show of subterranean force is
the most noteworthy ever observed on
American soil. As proof of the myBtib
power that is at work beneath the
islands, a neck of land has been forced
up out of the sea between Bogaslov,
and the two islands are now one. It is
queer-looking land that has taken the
place of one of the passes shown on
the chart as connecting the Behring
sea with the greater ocean to the south
ward. The rocks in this neck are
manifestly of volcanic origin, but are
smooth on the surface, as if once
melted.
LYING AT DEATH'S DOOR.
Terrible Injuries Received by a Seattle
Policeman.
Seattle, Oct. 14. Policeman John
Corbett, one of the bravest men on the
force, is lying at the point of death at
Providence hospital, his body covered
with knife wounds, received while in
the performance of his duty. At the
same hospital is John O'Connor, alias
Connor, a suspected thief, who is dying
with a bullet from the officer's revol
ver in his body. At police headquar
ters is Banford Bouser, a sailor, Trith
knife wounds on his hands, and Daniel
McNamara, proprietor of the Wan
derer saloon, is suffering from a severe
bullet wound in his right arm.
It all happened this morning at 5
o'clock when Officer Corbett attempted
to arrest O'Connor on a charge of hay
ing robbed Bouser by ripping open,
his trousers pockets and taking there
from his money, $5 in gold and. $5 in
silver. O'Connor is responsible for
the wounds on Corbett and Sailor Bou
ser, and the brave policemen Is . re
sponsible for the wounds of the sus
pected thief and those of the saloon
keeper. Officer Corbett is frightfully cut, hav
ing about a dozen wounds. If he dies,
it will be immediately due to a wound
in the abdomen, two inches to the left,
and three inches below the navel. His
nose is almost severed from his face,
while his breast, arms and leg9 are
slashed in a ghastly manner.. O'Con
nor's fatal wound is in the back, the
policeman having shot him while he
was trying to escape.

Cable Possible.
San Francisco, Cal., Oct. 12. The
United States court of appeals has de
cided in favor of Mrs. Stanford on the
appeal taken from Judge Ross sustain'
ing the demurrer of Mrs. Stanford in
the suit brought against her to-recover
$15,337,000 alleged to be due the gov
ernment from the estate of Leland
Stanford on account of Central Pacific
bonds. The decision was banded down
today, signed by Circuit Judge Gilbert
and District Judges Morrow and Haw
ley. The decision holds that if a lia
bility exists it is purely a creature of
statute, and there is no relief to be ob
tained in the premises from any suit
in equity.
The opinion stated that the question
before the court seems to be whether
the stockholders shall be held individ
ually liable for the debt of the com
pany. The court held that the liabil
ity of the stockholders of the Central
could not be different from those of
the Union Pacific and bad there been
a consolidation of the two companies!
the debt could not have been collected
from the stockholders; and what would
apply to them then applies now. Judge
Gilbert, who read the decision, cited
at length the- laws governing the
stockholders of the Union Pacific. In
this Instance the shareholders were
not held liable and it is explicitly so
stated in the charter which was ob
tained in Illinois. On the other hand,
the state of California imposed a' per
sonal liability clause when the Central
Pacific was incorporated; "but," said
the court, "it is reasonable to suppose
when the government granted the two
roads the subsidies, that it intended to
hold the shareholders of one person
ally liable and not the other? Can it
be imputed that this was the intent of
congress when it set aside the lands
and assumed part of the debt of the
company.""' The court further on
urged that it was the intention of con
gress to put both roads on the same
footing. Judge Davis, of Illinois, has
already decided that the Union Pacific
stockholders were not liable. Again
the court remarked: "It is not reasona
ble to presume that individuals would
have engaged in such enterprise were
they to imperil not only their invest
ments but their private fortunes."
The case will be taken to the United
States supreme court.
CRISIS IN UTAH POLITICS.
The Mormon Prlestbood Taking an Active
Part.
Salt Lake, Oct. 12. Political cir
cles are greatly agitated today- over
the report that at a secret meeting of
the priesthood of the Mormon - church
a few days ago Hon. Moses Thatcher
and A. B. Roberts were disciplined for
participating in politics without per
mission of the church. Thatcher is a
candidate for the senate and Roberta
for representative. Democratic politi
cians construe this as notice that the
Republican ticket should be elected.
Just why these two gentlemen were
singled out for discipline,, while there
are other church officials on both tick
ets.is something which Democratic pol
iticians elaim they do not understand,
and cite the fact that Joseph Smith
openly advocated and urged - the elec
tion of . the Republican ticket . last
year, to which no objection was made.
The Democratic party has been .waging
a vigorous campaign with the claim
that their chances for success were
about even, but now . admit their
chances - as against -church influence
will be next to hopeless. Judge Pow
ers, chairman of the Democratic com
mittee, in a published interview -says:
If we find that our efforts are to be
thwarted, our money wasted, our vic
tory surreptitiously taken from us, I
shall advise the state committee to give
me authority to call a convention of
the Democrats of Utah! giving ' that
cop vention power to consider ' the pro
priety of taking the Democratic ticket
from the field, to disband the Demo
cratic ' party and to advise the voters
of Utah to' vote down legislature and
to vote for a' territorial form of gov
ernment until we are certain all our
people, from the highest to the lowest,
will be free to act politically as they
choose. ' ' . :. .
