the depot for the purpose of killing her
brother, and though she greeted him
with a smile and a hearty handshake
she loitered behind to get her opportu

Ban Francisco, July 12. Although
tbe city s building laws were in a
chaotic state during the month of June,
building permits were issued to the
value of $1,600,000, and in this sum
are not included those one story tern
pjrary structures which may be erected
for a time without special permit.
Now that the building law has been
promulgated, reconstruction will take
its real start. It is hampered solely by
the slowness of the insurance com
panies.
Up to the present time but $15,000,-

An Oakland department store, ob
serving that it was unable to meet its
augmented trade by the small order
system, determined to place an order
for a train load of goods in the East.
A few days before the goods arrivad,
the proprietor of the Oakland store be
came alarmed, fearing be had placed
an order beyond his capacity to handle
He telephoned to a large department
store in San Francisco, asking to be re
lieved of half of the consignment. The
San Francisco firm consented.
When the goods arrived, the San
Franciscan disposed of them before he
had fairly placed the goods on the
shelves, telephoned to his Oakland
friend, purchased the resi of the con
8igninent and disposed of it with the
eame alacrity as he had done tbe first
part. This simply illustrates that San
Francisco is not to be displaced as tbe
main trade center.
The bridging of the bay, which was
a pet scheme of some of the earlier
railroad magnates, is now to be put
through. President Harriman has or

By this improvement freight will not

Both Esther .Mitchell and Mrs. Cref
field, who was arrested at 7 o'clock
last night while on her way back from
the cemetery where "Joshua" Creffield
is buried, acknowledged in statements
taken before Chief Wappenstein that
they had conspired to kill George. Had
it been necessary Esther Mitchell was
prepared to follow her brother to Port
land. It was this insane demand for
vengeance that prompted her to refuse
to accompany her father on bis return
to Illinois.
'I killed George because he had
killed an innocent man, and because he
had rrined my reputation by saying
that Creffield seduced me," Esther
Mitchell declared, but both her state

Mrs. Creffield prompted the shooting
and she bought the gun with which it

Forces With Great Loss.
Mexico City, July 13. According to
advices received here, General Toledo,
tbe Guatemalan revolutionist, who has
been recruiting his forces and has now
some good artillery, offered battle yes
terday to Guatemalan regular troops in
the department of Jutinpa, at a point
about four miles from tbe Salvadorean
border, inflicting decisive defeat on
Guatemalan forces. There was heavy
loss on both Bides. The revolutionists
are jubilant over their success.
Regalfdo, former president of Salva

troops in the present conflict with
Guatemala, was killed in the battle.
Admiralty Yields to Prolest of Her
Fighting Men and Will Feed Them
on Australian and Argentine Meat,
Which is Guaranteed Wholesome
and Clean,
London. July 10. As the result of
the refusal of one of the ships of tbe
British attacking fleet to take on Amer
ican tinned meats during tbe recent
naval maneuvers, the Admiralty directs
that ships' companies be supplied with
Australian or Argentine brands in lieu
of American. Tbe remainder of Amer
ican tinned meats now on hand is being
returned to the victualing yards and
will be no longer a compulsory ration
for the navy.
Winston Churchill Spencer, under

that every precaution is taken at the
freezing and canning works to insure a
cleanly method. Where any breach of
the regulations regarding cleanliness is
proved, licenses are immediately with

Chouknin, Suppressor of Black Sea
Mutiny, is Wounded.
St. Petersburg, July 12. An attempt
was made at 1 o'clock this afternoon at
Sevastopol to assassinate Admiral
Chouknin, commander of the Black sea
fleet. The admiral was wounded and
taken to a hospital.
The would-be-assassin is a sailor,
who hid in the bushes and ehot at tbe
admiral as he was walking in the gar
den of his villa. The culprit has not
been apprehended.
Admiral Chouknin's condition is ex
tremely serious. The bullet lodged in
hie lungs, making breathing difficult.
The doctors hold out no hope of li is re
covery. The admiral's assailant is thought to
he one of the sailors of the battleship
Otchakoff and his act is supposed to be
in revenge for the execution of Lieuten
ant Schmidt, the revolutionary leader.
Admiral Chouknin was univercally hat
ed by his sai'ors and at the time of the
execution of Schmidt the revolutionists
condemned him to d.?ath, 100 of their
number pledging themselves to carry
out the sentence.

consigned to the Alaksa-Pacific Express
company here has been stolen from
aboard the steamer Ida May and no
clew bas been obtained to the robbers.
Tbe shipment was eent from Fairbanks
and was transferred at Nenana. The
Ida May was to transfer it to the Sarah

the lose was discovered.
Guatemala Claims Victory.
Panama, July 13. Senor Parrios,
foreign minister of Guatemala, cabled
to the Panama government this after
noon as follows :
"Guatemala, July 12. The Salva
dorean government has invadtd Guate
malan territory, compelling us to
make an energetic defense. We ob
tained a complete victory yesterday at
Jicardo, where General Tomas Regala-
do, the chief commander of the Salva
dorean army, was killed."
Plans to Suppress Revolt.
St. Peteisburg, July 12. The pre
parations which tbe War office has
been making at all principal cities to
meet an armed revolutionary movement
prcva to have been very elaborate. The
pland for the defense of Riga have
fallen into the hands of the revolu
tionary paper Misla, which this morn
ing publishes the entire plans of defense.
The garrison is divided into three
divisions of two battalions of infantry,
half a company of Cossacks and three
machine guns each, to prevent the in
vasion of the city from three open
sides, namely, the canal, the dam and
the river Puna.
Congress Will Be Asked to Enlarge
President's Powers.
Washington, July 10. Tariff reci
procity as the beginning cf tariff revi
sion mav be made the chiet issue ot toe
short session of the 59th congress. It
is more than likely that after the elec
tion in November steps will be taken in
tbe direction of the passage of a general
reciprocity law. Whatever reciprocity
here is must be by a new law, because
the reciprocity feature of the Dingley
act expired two years after its passage,
and none of the treaties negotiated un
der its provisions succeeded in securing
raticfiation by the senate.
The reciprocity of the future must be
statutory, that is to say, the president
must be authorized in some way, either
by the separation of a maximum and
minimum tariff or by a horizontal re
duction, to promote trade relations
with tohre countries This would not
mean revision of the tariff if reciprocity
could be accomplished on a percentage
basis, that is to say, by the application
of a more general principle of the pres
ent law without disturbing tbe rates
themselves, thus provokiag a general
tariff discussion.
ROOT DODGES PROBLEMS.
Asks Root to Give Help.
San Juan Porto Rico, July 13. The
lower house of the insular legislature
adopted a resolution asking Secretary
Root to use his good offices in behalf of
Porto Rican citizenship and an elective
insular senate. The.-Republicans, who
constitute the minority in the legisla
ture opposed the resolution, holding
that Mr. Root was the island's guest
and that the time and place were inop
portune. It is reported that the docu
ment was not presented before the'sail
ing of Mr. Root, tbe authorities not de
siring to interfere with his visit.
Uprising in Transvaal.
Johannesburg, Transvaal, July 13.
The disquieting rumors that tbe blacks
of the Rand contemplated an uprising
July 17 are borne out by the fact that
the native servants have warned their
mistresses to retire to places of safety.
Similar rumors have been circulated in
the Reef, but the police ridicule them.
However, much anxiety is expressed
over a paper read at a conforence of the
Ethiopian church which says an upris
ing has been openly advised.
Trade With Britain Killed.
London, July 13. In June of last
year there arrived at the Albert docks
from Boston and New Orleans 27.000
cases ot tinned meats; in June of this
year the receipts were only 4,000 cases.
Iu July. 1905, 24,000 cases were re
ceived, but thus far this month none
have arrived from the United States.
Speaks at Banquet at San Juan With
Diplomatic Reserve.
San Juan, Porto Rico, July 10. Eli
hu Root, the American secretary of
state, who arrived here on the cruiser
Charleston on his voyage to Rio Ja
neiro as the representative of the
American government at the Pan
American congress, was entertained at
luncheon tonight by George C. Ward,
at the Union club.
Auditor Hyde, of Porto Rico, pro
posed a toast to President Roosevelt.
In responding Mr. Boot said be fully
appreciated the difficulties attending
the island 8 adjustment to the new con
ditions resulting from its separation
from Spain and the severance of rela
tions between church and state. The
United States, Mr. Root eaid, was
greatly interested in the welfare of the
island and in holding its friendship,
and strongly desired for Porto Rico the
utmost prosperity and happiness.
Mr. Root avoided all reference to in
sular problems, such as the question of
citizenship, the coffee growing industry
and the presence of troops.
Sealers Put in Chains.
Victoria, B. C, July 10. Advices
from Japan state that three Americans,
one Britisher and one Japanese sealer,
who were imprisoned for IB months at
Vladivostok, have returned to Japan
after being released. One of the Amer
icans was loaded with chains, while in
confinement. The Americans and the
Britisher, who are distressed, are being
maintained at the Seaman's institute
at Yokahoma. They were members of
tbe crew of the Japanese sealing
schooner Kyolchi Maru, which was
sunk by Russian cruisers in 1903.
Disgusting Conditions In Sausage and
Jam Factories.
London, July 11. The BritisherB,
who have been so virtuous recently
over the Chicago meat packing revela-
; tions, were today confronted with the
annual report of tbe inspector of fac
tories and workshops, which shows
that the conditions bere are quite as
revolting as anything alleged of the
Western packing centers.
Dirty factories and disgusting meth
ods seem to be the rule, instead of tbe
exception. Jam factories, bakeries and
sausage makers are all censured as be
ing equally filthy, and the description I
of one fits most of the others. Here is
the report of a typical jam factory :
"The boiling factory lay between the
yard and tbe stable, and the horses
reached the latter through tbe boiling
room. The sanitary accommodation
was hardly separated from tbe rooms
where the fresh fruit and uncovered
jam were kept, and the fl ors were dir
ty and undrained."
Another factory inspector found jam
pots being washed in "liquid like dark
soup, which smelled abominaoiy.
The manager informed the inspector
that tbe water was changed "about
once a week." When fished out of
these evil-smelling tanks the pots were
allowed to stand until dry, when they
were considered ready to refill.
Inspectors of bakeries found that it
was a frequent custom to bathe the
children in them after the close of work
on Saturdays, and the family's weekly
collection of dirty clothing was sorted
in the bakeries for dispatch to tbe
laundry.
The sausage factories, says the re
port, are mostly owned by Germans,
are small, dilapidated and poorly lit,
and are infested with rats."
UNCLE SAM'S GUARANTEE.
Roosevelt Offers It for Government
Inspected Canned Meat.
Sheffield, England, July 11. The
Grrcers' federation, whose annual con
ference is proceeding here, has received
a communication from Ambassador
Whitelaw Reid, enclosing a message
from F resident Roosevelt, as follows:
"You are at liberty to inform the
Grocers' federation that under the new
law we can and will guarantee the fit
ness in all respects of tinned meats
bearing the government stamp. If any
trouble arises therewith, protest can at
once be made not merely to the sellers
of tbe goods, but to the United States
government itself."
The secretary of tbe federation stated
that Mr. Roosevelt's message was in
reply to one sent by him on behalf of
the federation, saying trade was almost
paralyzed and that dealers must be as
sured of the w holesome character of
tinneij goods, or otherwise they would
have to stop stocking up with Ameri
can brands. The speaker hoped the
publication of the president's message
would lead to a revival of the trade.
He said the loss to the members of the
federation in the canned meat ttade
had been very heavy.
Drastic resolutions were referred to
committees, one of which pledged the
grocers not to stock with American can
ned mea's until the packers have initi
ated an inspection system guaranteeing
the wholesomeness of their output.

London, July 10. According to
correspondent of the Times at
Petersburg, it is tbe concensus of opin
ion there that the Conetatutional Dem
ocrats will be invited to form a minis
try. One of their leaders said there
had been indirect overtures with that
end in view, and that they were await

other leader said the Goremyktn cabinet
was certain to go and that there will be
a Monromtseff cabinet.
Slayer of Holy Roller Leader
quitted by Jury.
Seattle, Wash., July 11. George H.
Mitchell, who shot Franz Edmund
Creffield, leader of the Holy Rollers,
on First avenue, May 7, was acquit
ted late yesterday afternoon. After
nearly an hour and a half in the jury
room the 12 men who have listened to
the testimony in Mitchell's trial filed
hack and announced their verdict:
"Not guilty."
Despite the advance warning of the
court that no demonstration would be
permitted, irrespective of the verdict,
t roar of applause greeted the an
nouncement and the court officers were
powerless to still it. The courtroom
was crowded, but aside from those who
sat in the front row, directly under the
eye of the presiding judge, the spectat
ors applauded almost unanimoulsy
when the clerk had read the words that

from Algiers the tourist sails for
Palermo, with Its beautiful gulf, "Tbe
Hrolden Shell," encircled by lofty moun
tains. The city lies In a blossomln
plain, was fought for, like all Sicilian
titles, by Greeks, Carthaginians, Ro
mans, Saracens and Normans, and, al
though still fairy-like of environment,
retains rew traces of Its origin. When
the last of the winter snows has melted
away, the orange and Judas trees
bloom marvelously, and every lalid
breeze brings the city a springtime
freight of the rarest fragrance. Nature
offers man an Eden here, but he, poor
mortal that he Is, hungers and thirsts
pitifully, starving physically In this
paradise of beauty.
Foverty Is general In Palermo, yet It
has Its treasured sights the university,
the public libraries, the many famous
churches, clubs and palaces, and courts
of Justice. In some of these edifice!
are mosaics which are like old tapes
tries, silken In appearance, but more
enduring than tapestry handiwork
being made of cubes of agate, of Jasper,
lapis lazuli, and other rare and brill
lant stones.
The people are given to many church
feast days, but tbe poorer workers arc
julte Industrious. The cobblers work
necessarily to make the money where

tailors with extraordinary skill patch

ning as If they never could be worn
again. Tbe sellers of poultry carr,
their wares tied together by the legs,

The hucksters sell cauliflowers pink,

than when the morning sun reveals tho

Mount Vesuvius, dlstingc'shed-looklng

The Museum of Naples 's a treasure
house of artistic and arfiucologlal
gems. Its mosaics and frescoes are
famous, and Its pictures include
"Scenes from the Storv of Hercules,"
"Achilles Delivering Bilsfls to the Her
alds of Agamemnon," and other classi
cal subjects. Here, too. Is found the
celebrated Farnese Hercules, and a
cabinet of medals and the small bronzes
unearthed In Pompeii. It Is an Inter
esting experience to vtnv tbe NeapolU
tans under the stress of excitement,
such as Is witnessed when an eruption
of Vesuvius is apprehended.
All night the streets are thronged
with people who waficn with supersti
tious awe the column of Are that rises
fully 1,000 feet In height and the great
masses of molten lava that leap up In
the air and fall heavily to earth again,
carrying destruction w.th them. The
fact whloh excites the people most,
however, Is that the morntadn is
"sweating fire" to use an expression
of an Italian scientist that is, opening
up new craters which discharge burn
ing streams of lava that surround and
ruin neighboring villages on the moun
tain's slope.
They realize the appropriateness of
Goethe's words, "Vesuvius Is a peak of
hell rising out of paradise." For all
of the volcano's lower slopes are fertile
vineyards, where Is grown that famous
wine of ashes, the Lacrlrr.a Cbrlstl. And
Just above are hardened lava streams,
contorted like lizards and crocodiles in
agony.
From Naples, by a brief dr've, Pom

deeply was this place covered by Vesu

site became a historic uiystf ry. It Is
a sombre, lonely spot. The various
houses shown to tourists have been
given names In accordance with th
treasures discovered In them when they
were disentombed.
There Is the "House of tne Wounded
Adonis," "the House of the I abyrlnth"
so called because a mos'ie of Theseus
and the Minotaur was fund In it;
there are the "House of the Uttie
Fountain," 'The House of the Faun,"
The House of the Tragic Poet." There
are temples, too, the theater upon tne

Turmoil Grows in Strength.
Odessa, Russia, July 11. Agrarian
outrages and politico-industrial strikes
occur daily, and are alarmingly spread
ing in tbe Southern provinces. The re
volting peasantry are now evidently or
ganized and led by profesisonal propa
gandists. In an interview today a mar

pressed the firm conviction that the
situation is inevitably an! rapidly
drifting to a colossal and calamitous
uprising of the peasants against the
landowners and that the movement
will be supported by the soldiers.

Caracas, Venezuela July 10. Vice
President Gomes yesterday transferred
to President Castro the presidential
office, which the latter temporarily re
signed in April last.
Equipped with uothlng but their skill
and endurance, a few ponies, a gun or
two, and provision enough to last them
for the day, the early mountaineers
of the West set out to make their way
through a vast wilderness that held all
the terrors of the unknown. William
T. Hamilton, a type of these self-reliant
men, spent his whole life on the plains,
and in "Sixty Years on the Plains" he
tolls, among other things, of the foods
in use by the C'heyennos, with whom
the plainsmen often came In contact.
The Cheyennes were and are to-day
a proud and brave people. Meat Is
their principal food, although berries
of different kinds are collected In sea
son, as well as various roots. The
kettle is on the tripod night and day.
Most tribes of plain Indians dry
their meat by cutting it Into thin flakes
and spreading it on racks and poles in
the sun. lVmuilcan Is manufactured lu
the following manner:
The choicest cuts of meat are select
ed and cut Into flakes and dried. Then
all the marrow Is collected and the
best of the tallow, and both tallow and
marrow are dissolved together over a
slow tire.- Many tribes use berries in
their pt'iiiinicau. Mountaineers always
do unless they have sugar.
The meat is now pulverized to the
oonslj,teiK-y of mince-meat, the squaws
generally doing this on a flat rock,
using a pestle. A layer of meat is
spread, about two Inches thick, th"
squaws using a wooden dipper, a buf
falo horn or a claw for this work. On
this meat Is spread a certain amount
of the melted marrow ana tallow, the
proportion depending on the taste.
This same process is repented until the
haired amount is secured. One iouud
