GENERAL MILES TALKS OF WEAK COAST DEFENSES, AND IS SENT A SHARP LETTER OF REPRIMAND BY THE SECRETARY OF WAR. Secretary of War Lamont has reprimanded Gan. Miles for talking too much about weak coast defenses and things in the event of war between the United States and Britain. Gen. Miles is in command of the U.S. army, and to an ambitious reporter at Washington the other day, gave out the following interview which called forth the rejoinder from the war office: "I have just returned from an inspection of the harbors of the southern coast, and, like those in other sections of the country, found them in an entirely detenseless condition. If war should break out at the present time, all we would have in the South, or in fact anywhere, with a few exceptions, would be a lot of obsolete guns and rotten carriages, which would fall over before they could be made of service. The country is in a deplorable condition for defense. There are only three modern high-power guns in position in this country. Two of these are at the entrance of New York harbor, and the third is at San Francisco." "How much time and what expenditure would be necessary to fortify the coast property?" If Congress would make liberal appropriations the coasts can be placed in condition for defense in two years. The work in making their separate and independent livings in the house, she brooding downstairs, he brooding in his sitting-room over her head. No doubt each sent many a longing thought out toward the other or backward toward the days when they had wandered the village lanes, each with an arm around the other. But that stubborn, relentless pride, that fear of being thought weak and yielding, held them apart. And so the years passed down to the seventeenth anniversary of their quarrel. On that day something happened, no one knows what, that angered Burke into breaking the silence. Down the stairs he came, and, for the first time in seventeen years, walked in upon his wife and began to shout at her. She answered him in the same strain. He took her by the shoulders and gave her a tremendous shaking, set her down hard in her big rocking chair and stalked away. She was in a frantic rage. She rushed out and had him arrested. He was fined $3. He appealed the case, and it came before the Court of Common Pleas. The decision of the lower court was confirmed, and now Burke has not only to pay the $3 but also the costs of the appeal. This looks as if Edward and Ellen were further away each from the other than ever before. But there is one hopeful sign. They are talking each to the other again daily, hourly. But, as the silence is broken, the tears may come at any moment. The neighbors are hopeful and are wisely standing aloof, or as far aloof as is compatible with watching every move. IN CASE OF WAR. SOUTHERN REPUBLICS PREPARING TO STAND BY VENEZUELA IN EVENT OF TROUBLE WITH ENGLAND. New York, December 30.—A special from Caracas says: All this Latin-American republics are in a secret league and will join Venezuela in case of war against England. Colombia has responded to Venezuela's request by promising to contribute 200,000 troops and agreeing to give the British Minister his passports unless Eugland consents to submit the Guiana question to arbitration. Brazil is to send 100,000 men, armed and equipped. Mexico is counted upon to aid with a fleet. By calling out her militia Venezuela can place 250,000 men in the field. The Venezuelans AND ENDS OF NEW DR. J. C. Hearne, who was recently quitted at Bowling Green, Ky., of the company of murdering millionaire Amos J. Stillman is on his way to San Diego to locate practice medicine. Joe Vendig announces that he has final arrangements for the boxing card which is to take place in Juarez, Mexico next month. The programme will be February 11th, Walcott and "Bright Eyes" February 12th, Dixon and Marshall; February 13th, Leeds and Everhardt; February 14th, Maher and Fitzsimmons. Miss Ina Newman, one of the reigning belles of the village of Albany, Mo., and I Dix, a full-blooded Cherokee Indian, taken in charge at San Joseph Christmas night by the police, will be held with relatives of Miss Newman can arrive. Newman is handsome and intelligent, is seceded of considerable property, and elicited with the Cherokee. Some weeks ago patent medicine company, of which Dix a member, and for which he paraded "Whirlwind, the Healer," came to Albuquerque and gave an entertainment. Miss New became infatuated with him, and eloped him and went to St. Jo. to be married. declares she will marry him. A complaint in a suit against the Bear Valley Irrigation Company was filed United States Circuit Court at Los Angeles one day last week, the complaint being John G. North, and the suit against the company and E. H. Spoor; recovers damages in the sum of $10,000 are paid on account of the backing up of water over the complainant's land by reason of company's dam. Further relief is said that an injunction issue permanently straining any and all persons from structuring a certain new dam proposed by company. It is alleged that the construc-tion of such dam would further flood compa-nants' land, and do irreparable injury. In a senseless panic caused by a defea-ger burner and a foolish cry of fire at the Front Street theatre in Baltimore Friday night, twenty four people were killed fatally injured, and ten seriously hurt minutes after the certain rose, one of attendants went up to the second ti-light a gas jet which appeared to have extinguished. As he turned the cook applied a match, the light flared up as was seen that there was no tip on the jet. The jet was well down toward stage on the left side of the house in like those in other sections of the country, found them in an entirely defenseless condition. It war should break out at the present time, all we would have in the South, or in fact anywhere, with a few exceptions, would be a lot of obsolete guns and rotten carriages, which would fall over before they could be made of service. The country is in a deplorable condition for defense. There are only three modern high-power guns in position in this country. Two of these are at the entrance of New York harbor, and the third is at San Francisco." "How much time and what expenditure would be necessary to fortify the coast property?" "If Congress would make liberal appropriations the coasts can be placed in condition for defense in two years. The work would cost in the neighborhood of $80,000,000. In the first place the gun is necessary, then the modern carriage, and finally the om placement. These three distinct structures would cost approximately $100,000 for each gun mounted." "But it does not take a long time to manufacture the guns?" "It would take in the neighborhood of a year to make the tools necessary for another plant capable of building the guns, and then another year for the manufacture of each gun. There are now only three places in the country where heavy guns can be built, namely: The arsenal at Watervillet, the Battleshem Iron Works, and the foundry at the Washington Navy Yard." "In case of war, General," was asked, "what would you do for protection of coastal cities?" "There are four ways by which they could be protected: By battleships and monitors; by land batteries; by torpedoes and mines; and by sinking ships loaded with stone in the channels." "How about our land forces, General?" "No difficulty will be experienced in getting a million men and more. The small army we have would be a nucleus for other troops. What we need, however, is not men, but coast fortifications. After we get fortifications then we could get the men to operate the guns. In order to protect New York properly ninety-three guns and 177 mortars are needed. Secretary Lamont shows explicitly in his report how many guns are needed for the protection of the twenty-eight cities which should be fortified. Senator Squire's bill for the protection of our coast introduced in the Senate meets my views. It appropriates $87,000,000 for this work. The President and Secretary of War La mont seriously considered the advisability of silencing General Miles. That they are much incensed by the indiscreet talk in which the general has been indulging in regard to the weakness of the country's coast defenses and the general inability to go to war with assurances of success, can be positively stated. Had it not been for the high regard in which they both held him as a soldier, and their indisposition to inflict the indigency of rebuke on one whose services to his country in the past have been meritorious, they would have taken action before now. But Genesal Miles by his latest speech brought them to the limit of their forbearance and another such a break on his part will in all probability lead to his suppression. Not only did Miles blaze out the defense-least condition of his country, but the whole undercurrent of the position taken by the President. His chances for acquiring the title of Lieutenant General have been lessened by his recent utterances. MAN AND WIFE LIVE IN SILENCE. NEITHER SPOKE FOR SEVENTEEN YEARS UNTIL ONE DAY THE OLD MAN THOUGHT HE'D GIVE HIS WIFE A SHAKING. In the village of Branford, Conn., there is a two-story frame house, old and battered by the weather, and long unpainted. It stands apart, and for years none but the occupants have gone into it. In that house Edward New York, December 30.—A special from Caracas says: All the Latin-American republics are in a secret league and will join Venezuela in case of war against England. Colombia has responded to Venezuela's request by promising to contribute 200,000 troops and agreeing to give the British Minister his passports unless England consents to submit the Guiana question to arbitration. Brazil is to send 100,000 men, armed and equipped. Mexico is counted upon to aid with a fleet. By calling out her militia Venezuela can place 250,000 men in the field. The Venezuelan Foreign Office is very active. It will send immediately extra envoys to all parts of the world. A great commotion has been caused by a rumor that the British Minister to Colombia has been attacked by the people of Bogota; that England had demanded £500,000 ($2,500,000) indemnity therefor, and that Great Britain will hold the Colombian custom-house until the amount is paid. It has been suggested that English telephones be removed and replaced by American telephones. Students of the University have forwarded to President Cleveland resolutions thanking him for his utterances in behalf of Venezuela. They called upon Minister Thomas at the United States Logation. After a speech full of enthusiasm, they presented him with elegantly engrossed resolutions and requested that he send them to the President. This minister will do by the first steamer. A big dinner will be given by the members of the American colony here January lst. Warlike talk still prevails. Venezuela has sent Ministers to all of the South American republics. Their mission can be surmised. New York, Dec. 28 — The Red Star steamer Garacas arrived to-day from La Guayaara Curacao. She sailed from La Guayaara on Dec. 22, after a stay of less than two hours. In that brief time her captain and her crew saw and heard enough to convince them that the Venezuelans were wild with joy over President Cleveland's message to Lord Saliabury. "I did not set foot on the streets of La Guayaara," said Capt. Woodrock, "but from shipboard I could see a lavish display of flags and bunting in the buildings, and could hear the strains of the many bands. Above all the noise I could hear the music of 'Hail Columbia.' Brass bands seemed to be playing in all parts of the town, and the people had evidently given themselves over to one long celebration." The captain said life had been made well-nigh intolerable for some Englishmen doing business at Caracase, and that many had received to quit the country. Berlin, December 27 — A dispatch from St. Peterburg to the Tageblatt, says the United States Government has been sounding Russia regarding the dispute with England and is said to have received most favorable reply. It is declared that Russian Government shares President Cleveland's views in the Venezuelan question and is prepared to support them at any rate diplomatically. The dispatch adds that it is possible that the United States has received the support of Russia in the present financial troubles. A.E.Kilpatrick, of Filmore, Cal., had the misfortune to have his leg caught between a cart and a stone and badly bruised. Ordinarily he would have laid up for two or three weeks, but says: "After using one bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm I began to feel better, and in three days was entirely well. The peculiar soothing qualities which Chamberlain's Pain Balm possesses I have never noticed in any other liniment. I take pleasure in recommending it." This liniment is also of great value for rheumatism and lame back For sale by Derge In a senseless panic caused by a defeat gas burner and a foolish cry of fire at the Front Street theatre in Baltimore Night, twenty four people were killed fatally injured, and ten seriously hurt minutes after the curtain rose, one of attendants went up to the second light a gas jet which appeared to have extinguished. As he turned the cook applied a match, the light flared up as was seen that there was no tip on the er. The jet was well down toward stage on the left side of the house, in view of the greater part of the audience as the glare from it showed against some one in the gallery shouted, "Fire an instant there was a wild scramble for door, in which the whole audience took many others seriously injured. Hon. M.A.Hanna of Cleveland, McKinley's political lieutenant, and has just returned from a four week through the East in the interests of his dicate, discussed the chances of his candidates as follows: "I hold McKinley to be leading candidate. The pay want him, and the people generally dehn. His chances were never better brighter than they are today, and in opinion he easily leads. Really, the aggressive candidate besides McKinley Mr.Reed.Both of these men are candid and very much so.Mr.Reed isthe strong opponent McKinley has.Although not to be regarded at present as much didate as he is a factor. He is of no strong in his own section, and may be candidate before the convention assent but at the present time I regard him factor only.Morton is strong in his eye but I do not regard him as a candidate is a most estimable man, and one who all respect highly, but I do not regard in the light of a candidate. Of Harrison no more than what I see in the paper.In my opinion he is not a candidate; that an aggressive candidate."

MAN AND WIFE LIVE IN SILENCE. NEITHER SPOKE FOR SEVENTEEN YEARS UNTIL ONE DAY THE OLD MAN THOUGHE HE'D GIVE HIS WIFE A SHAKING. In the village of Branford, Conn., there is a two-story frame house, old and battered by the weather, and long unpainted. It stands apart, and for years none but the occupants have gone into it. In that house Edward Burke and Ellen, his wife, have lived for twenty-three years. They were married in 1872, and took this cottage and settled down to a comfortable, drowsy existence after the fashion of the respectable New England village family. At the end of six years the neighbors noticed that something was wrong. The wife could be seen eating her meals at a table on the ground floor, while the husband was to be seen eating at a table in one of the upstair rooms. Burke and his wife were never seen together, and when the neighbors bent upon getting at the truth, questioned each separately, they got no satisfaction. Neither would speak the other's name. The interest in the quarrel became so intense that, to prevent some of the feebler old people from dying of unsatisfied curiosity, a counsel was held and an ingenious line of action was resolved upon. They decided that it must be the man who was at fault, and that he must be crazy. So he was hauled up, and all the village turned out to hear an explanation. He simply said that he and his wife had quarreled, and had not been speaking, and so far as he could manage it, would never speak to each other again. He said that she lived on the ground floor and he on the second floor, and that each establishment was complete in itself. This was not lunacy, and so Edward Burke was released and allowed to go back to his queer home. But village curiosity was still ahunger and athrist. So Ellen was hauled up, charged with being insane. She soon proved that she was perfectly sane, and did it without letting out any more of the cause and progress of the quarrel than had her husband. After these lunacy proceedings the good people left them alone for a year or two. Then they bethought them that in a decent, godly place like Branford such bitterness between husband and wife was unseemly, revolutionary and scandalous. So they went up to the Burkes and prayed with them, and exhorted them and threatened them. But the Burkes, as before, spoke not, although they passed each other many times every day in the yard. They gradually dropped all their acquaintances and spent all their time not employed. A.E.Kilpatrick, of Filmore, Cal., had the misfortune to have his leg caught between a cart and a stone and badly bruised. Ordarily he would have been laid up for two or three weeks, but says: "After using one bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm I began to feel better, and in three days was entirely well. The peculiar soothing qualities which Chamberlain's Pain possesses I have never noticed in any other liniment. I take pleasure in recommending it." This liniment is also of great value for rheumatism and lame back. For sale by Derge. WORDS OF GOOD WILL FRIENDLY GREETINGS EXCHANGED BY TWO PROMINENT CLUBS. New York, December 28 — The following cable correspondence passed this evening between the Savage Club of London and the Lotus Club of this city: December 28th—To the Lotus Club, New York—The members of the Savage Club at home, at dinner assembled, send hearty greetings to the members of the Lotus Club. A bright New Year to you, and peace and good will between the Anglo-Saxon race. December 28th—To the Savage Club, London—The members of the Lotus Club heartily reciprocate your kind sentiments. Best wishes for the prosperity of the Savage Club and its members. Peace and happiness to England and its people. The popularity of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and the high esteem in which it is held leads us to believe it to be an article of great worth and merit. We have the pleasure of giving the experience of three prominent citizens of Redondo Beach, Cal., in the use of the remedy. Mr.A.V.Trudell says: "I have always received prompt relief when I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy." Mr.J.M.Hatcher says: "For three years I have used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in my family and its results have always been satisfactory." For sale by Derge. Geo.W.Jenkins, editor of the Santa Maria Times, Cal., in speaking of the variousailments of children, said: "When my children have croup there is only one patent medicine that I ever use, and that is Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It possesses some medical properties that relieve the little sufferers immediately. It is, in my opinion, the best cough medicine in the market." If this remedy is freely given as soon as the croupy cough appears it will prevent the attack. It is also an ideal remedy for whooping cough. There is no danger in giving it to children, as it contains nothing injurious. The dispatch adds that it is possible that the United States has received the support of Russia in the present financial troubles. Harnes pawned his diamonds and was continue his journey to San Diego. He received a remittance and returned to Angeles to camp on the trail of the gang who swindled him. David Fisher, a young farmer of Fville, who having a few days ago procured license at Santa Rosa to wed Miss Blakeley, and was united in marriage her soon after, was arrested at his home next day on a charge of perjury. He swore that Miss Blakeley was 18 years while her father declares she is only 10 so swearing in his license application father has had him arrested for perjury was released on bonds of $500, and then for his home. He did not run away being married, as was reported, and does seem to fear very serious consequences will have to appear in court this month for examination. Meanwhile he and bride are living together on his farm, a pity as can be, even though the wrath father-in-law is as furious as ever. Young woman prefers her husband parents' home, and declared that she would main true to the end. Forestville people much stirred up over the affair. Some the bride's father is persecuting his law, and that the matter should be able to drop, as they do not believe Fish tended to commit a crime when in his忿iasm he swore his sweetheart was complete in itself. Within two miles of Louisville, Kyurday night a relentless mob burned to a pregnant woman and riddled with her gray-haired paramour. The black and disfigured corpse of the victims Thomas West and William Devers found in the ruins of the woman's house Sunday by the fourteen-year-old daughter of the man. The tragedy was one most brutal ever enacted under the great way of Judge Lynch. Despite the injuries for her father's life, of a hightraightened child, and the prayers made of an ill and helpless woman, the mob through with its work with cold-blue cruel, deliberation, and only left what taind that both man and woman were. The affair was the outgrowth of the old of a faithless wife and vengeful bush Several months ago Devers, a middle widower, was accused by Thomas W prosperous farmer, of intimacy with West. Quarrel followed quarrel thrustthe fall until West instituted divorceeeds and declared Devers must The men met in Lebanon. West exorcised his revolver, which missed fire, while killed him on the spot. On the plea defense the murderer secured bail and dalized the neighborhood by immeiately taking his two daughters and moving West's house. The relatives of the mus husband swore vengeance, and last n came. Close to 10 o'clock a band rode up to the West homestead and devised admittance. "Tom West is dead, now it's your time to be spokesman called," Devers added. Mrs. West rushed to a darkened window 1896. AND ENDS OF NEWS C.

Vendig announces that he has made arrangements for the boxing carnival to take place in Juarez, Mexico, month.

Ina Newman, one of the reigning of the village of Albany, Mo., and Illory full-blooded Cherokee Indian, were on charge at San Joseph Christmas by the police, and will be held until the day of Miss Newman can arrive. Miss Newman is handsome and intelligent, is possessive considerable property, and eloped with Cherokee. Some weeks ago a medicine company, of which Dix was abor, and for which he paraded as wound, the Healer," came to Albany for an entertainment. Miss Newman infatuated with him, and eloped with John G.

Further relief is asked injunction issue permanently re-ing any and all persons from con-ing a certain new dam proposed by the boy. It is alleged that the construction dam would further flood complain-und, and do irreparable injury. Insenseless panic caused by a defective inner and a foolish cry of fire at the old Street theatre in Baltimore Friday twenty four people were killed, two injured, and ten seriously hurt. Ten days after the curtain rose, one of the girls went up to the second tier to gas jet which appeared to have been finished. As he turned the cook and a match, the light flared up and it then that there was no tip on the burn-the jet was well down toward the left side of the house, in plain began a wild, hysterical plea for mercy. A dozen bullets answered her cries and the demand for surrender was repeated. Devers, too, asked for a hearing, but his request was greeted with a shower of shots. The house was then burned to the ground with its inmates. Charles S. Young shot and killed his uncle, Prof. Lawrence Saunders, mistaking him for a burglar, at Jackson, Miss., Christmas eve. Saunders was disguised as Santa Claus, and visiting his sister's home knocked for admittance. Young asked who was at the door, and receiving no reply, fired, the ball passing through the door and killing Saunders instantly. A Christmas ball was given at Massillon, Ohio, for which members of the Royal Band of Hawaii, former proteges of the deposed Queen, were engaged, the entire organization being still stranded in that town. During the proceedings one of the players become ill, and complained of chronic heart trouble. He was carried out and found to be starving. All of the band was in a similar condition, but too proud to beg. Wealthy people made up a purse for the homesick foreigners. The war in Cuba made a ploomy Christmas in Spain. Besides the absence of 116,000 soldiers sent to the island, many families have been crippled financially by redeeming their sons from service in Cuba. Eighteen thousand of the 35,000 conscripts have each paid $800 since September. The midnight Christmas masses were more numerous and more largely attended than in recent years, while the ordinary revelries were less than usual. Certain army officers who have appeared in recent interviews in the newspapers in discussions of the possibilities of war and outlining their idea of what should be done in such an event have received personal letters from Secretary of War Lamot severely deprecating such talk. Expressions from such sources are not only given undue significance, but they are also injurious to the good reputation of the discipline of the army and harmful to the country in contributing to an unwarranted apprehension. General Miles is said to be among the officers reprimanded. The House responded to the appeal of the President by passing a tariff bill, the operation of which is limited to 125 years and which is designed to raise $40,000,000 for the relief of the treasury. The bill repeals the present tariff law until August 1, 1898. It restores 60 per cent of the McKinley rates on wools and woolens, lumber and carpets, and makes a horizontal increase of the pres- M. A. Hanna of Cleveland, Gov. McKinley's political lieutenant, and who was returned from a four weeks' trip with the East in the interests of his candidacy as follows: "I hold McKinley the leading candidate. The people him, and the people generally demand His chances were never better or worse than they are to-day, and in my view he easily leads. Really, the only viable candidate besides McKinley is Fred. Both of these men are candidates, very much so. Mr. Reed is the only opponent McKinley has. Allison is be regarded at present as much a candidate as he is a factor. He is, of course, in his own section, and may become a before the convention assembles, the present time I regard him as a only. Morton is strong in his section, but not regard him as a candidate. He is estimable man, and one whom we most highly, but I do not regard him tightly of a candidate. Of Harrison, I no more than what I see in the papers. Opinion he is not a candidate; that is, excessive candidate." V. Barnes, a young Englishman, arrives Los Angeles from St. Louis two days ago to spend the winter. He had landed on the day of his arrival playing the races in a local poolroom, was the biggest single winning of the race, and it aroused the cupidity of several others. They scraped up an acquaintance Barnes and induced him to prolong his absence he had intended going to Corinth. He remained and went to the theatre this newly formed friends. Between they took several drinks, and Barnesugged. He has an indistinct recollection playing cards and being helped back hotel where he had engaged a room. He woke up the next day he found he met $2200. He reported the story to police, who investigated and verified the event that he won money on the races. Also discovered that a man named his chief despoiler. Davis was to San Francisco. Two local sportsmen there in on the play say that it was a game, but Davis took all Barnes' cash. He pawned his diamonds and watch to take his journey to San Diego. Since he had a remittance and returned to Los Angeles to camp on the trail of the gamblers windled him. Id Fisher, a young farmer of Forest who having a few days ago procured a lot at Santa Rosa to wed Miss Annie Reynolds, was united in marriage with son after, was arrested at his home the day on a charge of perjury. Fisher that Miss Blakeley was 18 years old, her father declares she is only 16. Forearing in his license application her husband had him arrested for perjury. He released on bonds of $500, and then left home. He did not run away after married, as was reported, and does not fear very serious consequences.

The bill repeals the present tariff law until August 1, 1898. It restores 60 per cent of the McKinley rates on wool and woolens, lumber and carpets, and makes a horizontal increase of the present rates in all other schedules, except sugar, of 15 per cent. When the bill was put upon its passage it was passed, 205 to 81, the vote being taken by yeas and nay. There was no demonstration of any kind at the announcement of the result. The Grand River flood in Indian territory continues, and there is great decoration. Houses, wagons and animals of all descriptions have during the past week been floating with the torrent. Men and women were found in the treetops where they had been for thirty-six hours, without shelter or food. One woman was seen in a wagon box going down stream, calling for assistance, but so rapid was the current that nothing could be done to save her. The St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Southern road's big iron bridge at Fort Gibson has gone down, and all through traffic is abandoned. It will require several days to establish a transfer. No such flood was ever known in that part of the country. Miss Marie Studholme, the English actress, who made such a hit as Daisy Vane in "An Artist's Model" in New York, has been in this country only ten days, yet has already had one marriage offer. The offer came by mail from Hanes Webster of Fort Casper, Wyo. Mr. Webster explains in his letter that he has frequently seen pictures of Miss Studholme in the papers, and that he owns a ranch and has 300 head of horses. She can have a fresh one every day if she wishes it, he says, and cattle galore, and the bank at Green River, Wyo., or the Chemical National Bank of New York will give information as to his wealth. He wants Miss Studholme to enter into correspondence with him with matrimony as the ultimate object, and he will either send her his photograph or better still, if she desires it, he will go to New York to see her. What more could even a Gaitsy girl ask than that? But they say that Miss Studholme is already wedded. Among sporting men in the East the report is current that James J. Corbett, erstwhile champion pugilist, has good reason for quitting the prize ring. It is said that he is physically unable to stand a severe course of training, and that should he enter the ring he would be a mark for any first-class heavy weight. According to a friend of Corbett, the big fellow is going the same road traveled by Jack Dempsey. The first to recognize the trouble said to have been Billy Brady, who is now on his way to Australia. Brady knew that Corbett's method of life was the cause of his trouble and at least a year ago warned him that a physical as well as a mental collapse would be inevitable if he did not face squarely about. Letters in which Corbett acknowledged his mistakes are said to be in existence. In them he proposes to reform, but if the reports of his present condition are true he certainly has failed to make good his promises. Mary Ann McPheeters of San Diego had a cow and it was here. Her man McPheeters gave it to her. The animal gave rich milk, was of mild and reminiscent nature, and had hooves properly crumpled. Mary Ann McPheeters was rightfully proud of her possession, and was glad when McPheeters said before the neighbors that the cow belonged to her outright, in fee simple, with no ifs nor ads about it.

meet their obligations, some of which are already due, and others which will mature in the near future. This confession of financial embarrassment was a surprise even to those who have had intimate business relations with the house during part or all of the eighteen years of its existence. The credit of the house had always been rated high, and the promptness with which it has always met its accounts, coupled with the big business it did, has given it a standing along the street, causing the trade much surprise at the voluntary announcement which the house has made. The house is among the oldest and most extensive dried fruit dealers on the Pacific coast. They have been established eighteen years, and do an annual business of about $1,500,000. They own extensive fruit farms in Fresno and Santa Clara counties, and have their own warehouses at the central points of supply in both sections. One of the firm in speaking of the causes which have made it necessary for the house to seek the favor of its creditors said that heavy advances in the country, inability to make collections and slowness of movement in the dried fruit trade were the factors that composed the problem with which his house has to deal. Seven or eight years ago they had expended a great deal of money in the purchase of fruit lands in different parts of the State, and the cost of cultivating these lands, setting them to trees and maintaining the orchards during the time they were barren, had been a heavy and constant burden. During the past two months there has been practically no movement in dried fruit. Rather than sell at a ruinous price in order to meet present accounts, the house had thought it best to make a frank explanation to its creditors and ask time in which to realize upon its assets, which they claim are fully twice the amount of its liabilities. If the creditors will grant the desired extension of time, it is said; there is no doubt that the house would be able to pay 100 cents on the dollar of its indebtedness. Upon the other hand, if the creditors forced a settlement of accounts the house would have to make an assignment and this would result disastrously alike to debtor and creditor. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 28.—The creditors of Porter Bros. & Co., the embarrassed fruit-dealers, met to day and agreed to grant the extension asked by the firm. The total liabilities were shown to be $120,000, with assets estimated at $180,000. A committee of creditors will choose a trustee to whom the reality assets of the firm will be conveyed in trust to secure the payment of four notes payable in six, twelve, eighteen and twenty-four months, which the firm will give their creditors.
