THE MARUN FIRE ARMS CO.,
New Haven, Cono
Identity of the Spanish Cruiser Which
Fired on the Alliance..
VVabiiinotok, March 21. Nothing is
known here of the reported action of the
Spanish ships Infanta Isabella or Ar
cedo firing on American vessels. There
is good ground, however, for believing
that the ship sailing from Savannah
with Cuban arms aboard will furnish an
actual case of detention if she is over
hauled. Careful investigation is pro
ceeding as to the cargo shipped by the
Allianca at Colon, allegations that arms
were taken aboard under cover of dark
ness having been made. Communica
tions have been received in Washington
from Cuba that the Conde de Venadito
was the Spanish warship firing on the
Allianca. These advices said that the
latter ship was flying a British flag.
There is farther news as to the report
by Secretary Gresham of a reply from
Spain to his demand, but there is reason
to believe the published reports have
failed to state some important reserva
tions by Spain. One part of Spain's
answer may consist in calling attention
to a charge that in ovember last a
number of Spanish Cubans were fishing
in the Gulf of Mexico, when they were
fired upon by a United btates revenue
cutter, first with cannon and later with
small arms. The firine. it is said, oc
curred twelve miles from land. The
Spaniards were carried to New Orleans,
where, it is said the United States court
lor the nouinern district oi xx)aisiana
release d them. Spain has not thus far
made a protest, but may do so, now that
the UnueU Mates nas protested against
the firing on the Allianca.

partment has not yet heard from either

ANOTHER WILL INTRODUCED
It Was Left With a Young; Lady Teacher
In the Public Schools, and Warm
Friend of the Senator's, and Was
Written In Her Presence.
&ah Feancisco, March 20. The con
tention in the courts over the millions
left by James G. Fair developed another
sensation this morning. When the
case was called before Superior Judge
Slack a great stir was caused by the
introduction of what purports to be a
later holographic will written in lead
pencil on two sheets of legal cap paper.
It was brought into court securely
framed between two plates of glass by
Reuben Lloyd, who has been retained
in the case by Mrs. Oelrichs and Vir
ginia f air, daugnters ot the deceased.
This alleged will divides the estate
almost equally between the two daugh
ters and Charlie Fair. It bequeaths a
few thousand dollars to certain orpban
Nearly Four Thousand Prisoners

Salem, March 21. The total number
of prisoners received at the Oregon
state penitentiary since its opening is
now nearing the 4,000 mark. Since In
dian Charley, the first human being
that ever donned stripes in the name of
Oregon, there have registered 3,394,
John Gay, of Eugene, being No. 3.3U5.
The number now in prison is 359, of
which two are women. There is not
work enough to keep the convicts em
ployed half the time. The stove foundry
is run three days of each week Mon
days, Wednesdays and Fridays em
ploying on these days 165 men. The
aim is to manufacture stoves only for
the demand. The capacity of the plant
would furnish work for 225 men every
day of the week. There are thirty-two
trusties, who are allowed to work on the
farm and a few inside men find employ
ment gardening within the walls. The
remainder, except the few used in the
kitchen, are kept in their cells, except
about two hours each day when they
are given what is known as the "bull
pen drill." This is absolutely necessary
lor the health of those who are afforded
no other means of exercise. The aver
sion of doing the bidding of others is
very noticeable, even among convicts.
Many of them, if left to their own pleas

this the senator agreed, and then sat
down and wrote the paper which was

reason assigned for keeping the new will
