CHUN LUNG'S WISH. Petitions the Court for Ameri can Citizenship. THE STARKS JURY DISAGREES. PsabU to Arrive at a Yardlct, They Are Discharged From Further Con sideration of the Case. fAn interesting case, involving questions of national interest, was begun in the superior court yesterday. It is a petition in equity, tiled by Chun Ching Hock, bet ter known as Wah Chung, a wealthy Chinaman, who is guardian for his son, Chun Lung Coe, for the purpose of having testimony taken to perpetuate the evi dence and proof of the place of birth, the parentage and citizenship of Chung Lung Coe. In his petition Chun Ching Hock states that he married Mary Cary, an Indian, and she is the mother of Chun Lung Coe, who was bom in Kitsap county May 20, 1873. On May 22,1891, Chun Ching Hock began proceedings for the appointment as guardian of Chun Lung Coe in the pro bate conrt. and in that capacity he brings this action for the reason, he states, that Chun Lung Coe wants to make his perma nent home in Seattle and have the power and privilege of acquiring, owning, hold ing and disposing of property and exercis ing all of the rights of a citizen of the United States; that only a few persons are acquainted with the circumstances and place of his birth, and as they are past middle age and liable to die in the course of a few years, he wishes to preserve their evidence. These witnesses are Henry L. Yesler, F. M. Guy, George Harmon, G. L. Manning and B. F. Coombs. Chun Ching nock says that he deems this course necessary to protect the rights of his son, Chun Lung Coe. who looks like a Chinese, and he wants the testimony taken as early as possible. Judge Lich tenberg granted the petition and set June 11 for hearing the testimony in the case. HOPELESSLY HUNG. The Jnry In the Starks Mnrder Case Failed to Agree. After being out for forty-eight honrs thp jury in the Taylor Starks murder case was discharged by Judge Humes at 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon, there being no possi ble chance of their agreeing upon a verdict. When questioned as to the probability of reaching a verdict, the jury told Judge Humes that there was not only no probability, bnt there was no possibility. "We stand as firm as the rock of Gibral tar," replied one of the jurors, and all said that the jury was hung and no verdict could he reached. Jauies Hamilton Lewis, one of the attor neys for Btarks, then moved for the dis charge of the prisoner on the ground that the court had discharged the jury without their having requested it, and that his cli ent had, therefore, once been put in jeop ardy. Judge Humes denied the motion, •nd then .1. F. Ronald, Starks' other attor ney, demanded an immediate trial for the reason that his client is in'jail and is ready for trial. Judge Humes promised as early a trial as possible, and thought they could begin the trial of the case Borne time next week. The question as to bail for Toylor Starks be taken Tip at 2 o'clock this after nooj, and he will probably be admitted to bail as soon as the court fixes the amount. CARD SWINDLING CASKS. ••Pat-Hand Poker" Players to Have Justice Dealt to Them. The cases against Henry Connell. Henry Adams and Francis Adams, who are charged with grand larceny by swindling Rufus N. Ilorton out of SSO in a card game, at a Front street saloon, was called in Judge Humes' court yesterday and set for hearing on May 28. The case against them for carrying on a swindling gamo at the same time and place will also be tried then. These men are said to be slick card sharks, and it is charged that on the night of April '29 they jointly and unlawfully conspired together to carry on a swindling game, commonly called "pat-hand poker, '* and cheated and defrauded Hor ton out of |£o. Connell worked Horton by representing that he had the best hand and induced him to bet, but Henry and Francis Adams bad tixed their own hands, and when the hands were shown Horton saw he had been victimized and his op ponent* raked in the pot. This is the lirst case of this kind that Troseciling Attorney Miller has brought, but he expects to be sustained bv the court in the position he takes, and thereby be enabled to put an end to card swindling in this city.

Popular Captain Receives De- served Promotion* Captain Joseph Green, of B compay, was last evening elected lieutenant colonel of the First regiment, Washington Na tional Guards, to till the vacancy oc casioned by the resignation of Lieutenant- Colonel S. W. Scott. In response to special orders No. 10, emanating from regi mental headquarters, the following officers assembled at the Armory at 9 o'clock to elect a lieutenant colonel: Colonel J. C. Haines, Captain Joseph Green, of B com pany; Captain E. S. Ingraham, of E com pany; Captain R. Sims Allen, of D com pany; Lieutenants L. S. Bootheand W. M. Calhoun, of B company; Lieutenants C. W. Billings and E. F. Stafford, of G com pany (Tacoma), and Adjutant Charles Esplin. Captain Green was the unanimous choice of the officers for the vacancy, and will hereafter wear the silver leaf on his shoulder-knots, instead of the double bar. The newly elected lieutenant colonel is regarded as one of the best tacticians in the regiment and is the senior captain. He was an officer in the Seattle Kiiies, the first military company organized in the state west of the mountains, and has served as captain of B company ever since its organization. When the election of Captain Green was made known, a squad of four non commissioned officers stepped out of the armory and fired a salute in his honor, and then other members of the regiment joined in the cheering that followed. Calls were made for Captain Green, who stepped to the door and modestly thanked his cheering comrades for their kindness, and said he was glad to know that his election meets with their approval. Colonel Haines then invited the officers to the Rainier Club, where a banquet was served in honor of the newly elected lieu tenant colonel, and in the glitter of gold lace and sparkles of champagne the rulers of the First regiment forgot the horrors of war and joined in feasting and revelry. The promotion of Captain Green leaves a vacancy in B company that will be filled by some of the youug blood.

An Old Quarrel Renewed Be tween Variety Actors. JOHN GILMORE'S VENGEANCE. He Staba Hla Boom Companion With a Pocket-Knife—A Horde red Baby on Commercial Street. John Leonard, a variety theater per former, lies at Providence hospital with his left side punctured with knife wounds received early yesterday morning at the hands of John Gilmore, in a drunken affray at the Elliott house, corner of South Third and Jackson streets. From the evidence of the clerk of the house it appears that Gilmore, who had roomed there the night before, came in between 5 and 6 o'clock yesterday morn ing, and brought with him Leonard and Rick Ford, a performer at the Comique theater. All three were in an intoxicated condition. They were shown to Gilmore's room, but Ford left soon after. A short while later some of the guests were aroused by Leonard's cries for a doctor, and rush ing into his room found him lying in bed weltering in his own blood. He was striped to his underclothes, and seven knife wounds were found in ,his left side and one in his neck. All of them were slanting downward and about an inch and a half deep. Gilmore was endeavoring in a half-drunken man ner to stop the flow of blood. Dr. Jacob son and Health Officer Sparling were called in. The latter took charge of the case and had the wounded man conveyed to the hospital. The affair was kept very quiet, and it was not until nearly noon that Lieutenant Phil Sullivan chanced to learn of it. He went at once to the Elliott house, and al though the parties in charge at first re fused to talk, he compelled them to show him the room where the cutting took place. The bedclothes and the carpet were covered with blood, and there was every evidence of a hard struggle. The weapon used was found on the floor. It was a small, two-bladed pocket-knife. One of the blades, abotit two inches long, was open and covered with blood. From the accounts of the other roomers, who ran to the room in answer to Leonard's cries, it would seem that it was not until he had undressed and gotten into bed that Gil more attacked him. When found both men were still too stupefied with drink to talk intelligently. Lieutenant Sullivan at once started in search of Gilmore and finally found him on Jackson street. He was still in toxicated. The officer took him to the police station and locked him up. He is a small man weighing not more than 135 pounds, and when jailed was too much under the influence of liquor to tell a con nected story. He said he came to this city on Sunday from Spokane and had not yet secured an engagement with any of the variety theatres, although that was his object in coming here. The police officers are generally of the opinion that the affair was nothing more than a drunken row. It seems, however, that there is an old feud between the two men. Ethel Leonard, the wife of the in jured man, who is a variety actress at the People's theatre, says that a long time ago the two men had trouble at Spokane. Gilmore was beating his wife, when Leon ard interfered. Gilmore then turned on Leonard, but was given a sound thrash ing. She believes this to be the cause of the cutting, and thinks that Gilmore took her husband to his room in the Ellliot house with the intention to do him harm. Ford, the man who went to the hotel with Leonard and Gilmore, has not been arrested, but is under the surveillance of the police, who can lay their hands on him when he is wanted for a witness. Leonard is a famous clog dancer, and was at one time with Emerson's minstrels. He is well known all over the United States. It was reported that the two men fought a duel with knives, but this story is dis credited, as Gilmore was not cut at all. Dr. Sparling says that Leonard was stabbed seven times, one of the cuts being in the pleural cavity, between the eleventh and twelfth ribs. He was taken to Provi deace hospital, where it was reported he was doing pretty well and will probably recover. CASK OF IXFAXTICIDK. Murdered Babe Found Near the Com mercial Street Extension. A case of deliberate infanticide came to light early yesterday morning. Ferdi nand Weinburg, a butcher, who lives at the European hotel, at the northeast cor ner of Commercial and Weller streets, dis covered a parcel which he thought it had evidently been intended to throw in the bay, but which, instead, had fallen upon some iloating logs. Weinburg says he made this discovery about 4:30 a.m. He was repairing a boat at the time, and c ambered out on some trestle work and secured the parcel, which he took to Lud wig's saloon, thinking that he was thus made richer by some easily obtained wear ing apparel that had been dropped by its owner. He said, in very broken English, that his suspicions were aroused later by the fact that the parcel was a little too heavy for underclothing. He investigated, and to his horror discovered that his "lind" was an infant, fully developed and ma tured, which evidently had just been born. An ugly gash had been indicted on the back part of its head by a knife, appar ently. Weinburg said, however, that it was made by a piece of fiat stone which was near the parcel, and which he calls "an Indian stone." The child was wrapped in a Seattle Tribune of May 14. Weinburg took the body to police head quarters. and it was subsequently turned over to Coroner Horton, who ordered it to be buried by Bonney it Stewart, the un dertakers. Dr. Horton's investigation has not yet resulted in fixing the parentage of the body. The child was a white one and had quite a growth of dark brown hair. HAD STOLEN GOODS. Second Hand I>ealer Charged With Ron- ning a "Fence." Jon Cohen, the proprietor of a second hand store on South Third street, between Yesler avenue and Washington street, was arrested yesterday morning on a war rant issued by Justice Neagle, charging him with concealing stolen goods. Levi Simpson, a colored man, at whose instance the * nrrant was issued, claimed that he had discovered at Cohen's store household goods that had been stolen from his house. He told Cohen the prop erty belonged to him, but when he re turned to the store later to claim them Cohen had disposed of the goods. Cohen was released on his own recogni zance, and will have a hearing before Justice Neagle at 9 o'clock this morning. CETRALIA CRIMINAL CAI'GHT. Burglar Lynch Tracked to This City and Arrested. John Lynch, who is wanted in Centr3lia for burglary, was arrested eariy yesterday morning at Commercial and Washington streets by Officer George Cave. Deputy SherufJ. F. Biackweii, of Lewis county, came to this city on Sunday night and gave the police a description of the man which enabled the officer to apprehend Lynch. On the night of May 14 Miller's store, at Centraiia, was broken open and SSOO worth of jewelry and a considerable amount of clothing stolen. On last Wednesday two of the burglart were captured at Rainier and |450 worth of jewelry recovered. The third man, Lynch, was tracked to Seattle. When arrested Lynch had on a suit and hat and in his pockets two silk handker chiefs, which were all a part of the stolen goods. Deputy Black well left on the 9:15 train yesterday morning, taking with him his prisoner, handcuffed and ironed. DETEBHINED TO DIE. A Swede Makes Two Ineffectoal At* tempts at Drowning. J. 0. Johnson, a Swede, made an inef fectual attempt to drown himself in the bay last evening, but was fished out by 'longshoremen. Johnson was arrested early yesterday morning while roaming around the docks in a suspicious manner as if meditating jumping into the water. He was tried before Judge Rivers yester day afternoon on a charge of vagrancy and dismissed. About 7 o'clock he went down to Yes ler's wharf and deliberately jumped off. As soon as he rose to the top he made desperate struggles to keep his head under water, although he seemed to have very hard work in doing so. Some of the 'long shoremen, who saw him take the lesp, put out with a boat and rescued him. He was then taken to police headquarters. Here Chief Rogers, instead of locking Johnson up, sent for some of the soldiers of the Salvation Army, who took him away with them to their barracks. The poor fellow is evidently half demented. The Kansas Embezzler. Bheriff F. C. Wilson, of Barton county, Kans.,*who came here to take back O. B. Wilson, ex-mayor of Great Bend, Kans., who is wanted there for embezzlement, went to Olvmpia yesterday to secure from Governor Ferry the papers necessary for the return of the absconder to the state of Kansas. He expects to get back to Seattle this morning and start East with his prisoner at ouce. CRUSHED BT FALLING LUMBER. A Laborer Killed at Ballard—Aeeident to s Shingle-Maker. A horrible and fatal accident befell an employe of the Stimson Mill Company, at Ballard, about 5 o'clock yesterday after noon. A pile of lumber near the mill, standing about thirty feet high, toppled over and fell upon A. Zintic. He was ter ribly crushed. He had been wheeling and piling lumber near the pile that fell over. A number of men worked almost half an hour before the unfortunate laborer was taken out of the lumber. Life was not yet extinct, but he lived only ten minutes after the lumber was taken off him. His left leg was badly broken and his side was crushed in. Strangely enough his head and the upper part of his body were not hurt, but the lower part and legs were completely cov ered by the fallen timber. Coroner Horton was summoned and immediately went to Ballard. After a careful investigation he concluded to con sult the prosecuting attorney as to whether an inquest should be held. It was stated last night that an inquest would not be held, though Dr. Horton proposes to resume his investigation this morning. It is claimed that the mill company should be held accountable for having its lumber piled in such a way as to fall over, endangering the lives of employes. Deceased was 38 years old and lived in Salmon Bay park, north of Ballard. He leaves a w/ 1 and seven children, ranging in age i ->m yjars up to 16 years. Their case is one calling for charity, as they are suddenly deprived of support. Another accident occurred yesterday, also at Ballard, the victim being another employe of the Stirnson Mill Company's shingle mill named George Rooney. A shingle flew from the saw and struck him in the left eye. cutting a deep gash in the lid. Dr. Coe was summoned irom Seattle and dressed the wound. The eye is badly discolored, but the wound, though very painful, is not serious. CALIFORNIA IN BLOOM. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel L. Crawford Re turn from Their Visit There. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel L. Crawford, of this city, returned from a pleasant Cali fornia visit Saturday evening. They left h°re during the latter part of April, and celebrated the first anniversary of their wedding at the residence of Mrs. Craw ford's parents, Dr. and Mrs. M. F. Clay ton, in Sacramento, April 30. Then Mr. Crawford went to San Francisco on mat ters of private business, devoting several days in that city. While there he was mainly instru mental in inducing the presidential party to decide to make the trip from Tacoma to Seattle by boat, having been wired to that end by Mayor Harry White. During the president's v.sit in San Fran cisco, Mrs. Crawford joined her husband, and she also performed a very good work in prevailing upon the presidential party to give up their original idea of making the trip from Tacoma to Seattle by rail. She wrote a letter to a lady friend elabor ating upon the beauties and advantages of a boat ride on the Sound, and this lady friend being a member of the reception committee, occupied a seat in the carriage in which Manager Boyd rode in the pro cession. The result was as the sequel has shown. Mr. and Mrs. Crawford were accom panied by Mrs. Crawford's mother, who will visit in Seattle for a month or six weeks. They came up on the Walla Walla, and experienced very heavy head winds. On Saturday they witnessed the baseball game at Victoria between the Victorias and Port Townsends. Mr. Crawford savs that Oakland and Alameda are paradises of floral beauty now, and there is a pros pect of good crops in California. Never theless dull times are complained of in San Francisco. Seattle is much spoken about and inquired after. Fires Caused by Electric YVires. The Seattle board of underwriters, at its regular meeting yesterday, discussed the frequency of tires caused by improper in sulation of electric wires, and appointed a committee to draw up resolutions pointing out the danger of tires from this cause,and calling upon the tire commissioners to take precautions against them. Get Good Seata for the ••Chimes." Although there is not scope for any spe cial choice of seats in the Seattle opera house, yet it is desirable to obtain a good view of the stage.

WB. mm SINGERMAN 717-19-21-23 FRONT ST. SEATTLE, May 26, 1891. Yesterday's special ideas were evidently what the ladies wanted. We hardly anticipated that the specials would have so much favor. Now comes the cloak de partment with a number of good things to interest the economical buyers. First, just a word about the ready made save you all the thinking, the study, the worry and are sold cheaper than you can possibly make up a similar dress yourself. Just as a convincing proof take a look at the tailor made flannel dress which we sell at $12.50, and also examine the tailor-made Tricot, which is marked at $10.50. Judge the whole stock proportionately by these two. In the corner show window you will notice a variety of waists—half a dozen different styles and innumerable shades and patterns. These all have a special price marking. First notice those matinee waists—silk, with pleated fronts. These were originally sold at sl4. We have made them special at SB. House waists —a large com pany of them—very good buys at $1.25, $1.35 and $1.50 to $2. You can have them in flannels, demets, mauve cloths, etc., either plain, stripes or checks. There is a line of gingham waists at 75c each, which we say are really worth every cent of $1.25. A very good black I ndia silk waist that's very cheap at $3.75 is worthy of your attention. Of course, these we have mentioned are but a fraction of the stock which we carry. Another special of the cloak department is a broken lot of children's jackets, ages 4 to 14 years, which have been marked at $2 each. They formerly sold at $4.50 and $5 each. Don't leave the department until you have seen the worsted, knit shawls at $1.25 each. They •are exceptionally good values. Keep in mind the splendid black hose for children that we are selling for 10c a pair, at hosiery section. Also the 50c white muslin skirts that have been reduced from 65c, 75c, 80c and 90c A few of these are still left TOWS, SHERMAN 5 i CO, dre s s cs. The claim made for them is that they MO.
