YOSEMITE. June 10.—Gov. Budd
granted Durrant a reprieve this even

THE REPRIEVE
SACRAMENTO, June 10.—The follow
ing Is Gov. Budd's reprieve In the Dur
rant case, received here after 11 oclock
tonight:
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
Whereas, during the months of July.
August, September, October and No
vember, A. D. 1895, at a regular sesElon
of the superior court held ln and for the
city and 1 county of San Francisco, ln
said state, W. H. T. Durrant was tried
and convicted of the crime of murder
and sentenced to be executed upon the
21st day of February. 1896; and,
Whereas, The said case was appealed
to the supreme court, and after a decis
ion of said court affirming the Judgment
of the superior court, said W. H. T. Dur
rant was sentenced to be executed upon
the 11th day of June, 1897; and.
Whereas, Said W. H. T. Durrant, un
der sentence as aforesaid, has appealed
to the United States supreme court;
and.
Whereas, The warden of San Quentin,
whose duty It is to execute the sentence
aforesaid of said superior court, does
and will refuse to execute the sentence
of death of said W. H. T. Durrant on
said 11th day of June, 1897; and,
Whereas, I shall apply to the supreme
court of this state for a writ of man
date to compel W. E. Hale, the warden
aforesaid, to execute the sentence of said
court unless he be restricted by an order
of the federal courts; and.
Whereas, I am advised by the attor
ney-general of this state that a reprieve
is requested that the aald court may
properly consider the said-subject; and.
Whereas, The opinion of the said court
in said proceedings will settle the ques
tion judicially whether an appeal to the
United tSates supreme court in such
proceedings as taken by Durrant stays
the execution of the sentence of a state
court;
Now, therefore, by virtue of the au
thority in me vested by the constitu
tion and laws of this state, I, James H.
Budd, governor of the state of Califor
nia, do hereby reprieve the sentence of
the said W. H. T. Durrant to the 9th
day of July, 1897, at which time the said
sentence shall be executed unless other*
wise ordered.
Witness my hand and the great seal of
the state this 10th day of June, ln the
year of our Lord, 1897.
JAMES H. BUDD,
Governor of the State of California
REASONS. GIVEN
SAN FRANCISCO, June 10.—'Gover
nor Budd's reason for granting Durrant
a reprieve from his death sentence
until July 9 is that the legal points could
not possibly be decided before the time
set for the executicn, tomorrow. He is
advised, however, that it might take 30
days to decide, even though the ques
tions be presented at once to the Su
preme Court, hence the reprieve was
deemed necessary.
The Governor has stated that It is his
intention for the law to take its course
against the murderer of Blanche La
mont. This he said when he decided
net to Interfere In behalf of the con
demned man. Now he says that the sen •
tence must be carried out or he must
learn that the Federal courts have the
right to interfere with the State courts
in cases soich as the one at Issue.
Charles Garter, who Is special coun
sel for Durrant in the habeas corpus
proceedings, said he did not feel the
slightest apprehension In the matter of
the ultimate decision In the habeas cor
pus proceedings. He said that he hal
been unable to obtain any Information
from the Attorney General in regard to
the proposed course at the Governor, but
he added, "the Attorney General Is a
good lawyer and he knows that the po
sition he has taken is correct, and that
the appeal from the denial of the court
cf habeas corpus acts unquestionably as
a stay of execution."
The Attorney General, when Informed
last night that the Governor had de
cided to reprieve Durrant, declined to
make any statement. He said: "I will
not say whether I have prepared papers
or not. When I commence proceedings It
will be in the courts, not in the news
papers."
An evening paper publishes an Inter
view with one of the attorneys for The
odiore Durrant to the effect that in spite
of his denials, Attorney General Fitz
gerald has given an opinion to Warder.
Hale instructing him not to proceed
with the execution' of the condemned
murderer tomorrow, but that It had been
decided not to make the attorney gen
eral's opinion public until the last mo
ment, and, then only in the event of
the governor refusing to grant a re
prieve. This action, it is explained is
due to the fact that the attorney general
feared that if he told the warden not
to hang Durrant the governor might
demand a writ of mandamus compelling
both state officials to perform their duty.
When Secretary Shields received this
message from the governor he Immedi
ately wrote out two copies of the re
prieve to be mailed to Warden Hale and
Attorney-General Fitzgerald, on the
early morning train. He then called up
Warden Hale by telephone, and althougb
It was after midnight the warden an
swered ln person. When luformed that
LOS ANGELES, FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE U, J897
Durrant had been reprieved until July
9 Hale asked how he was going to obtain
a copy of the reprieve. He was told
that It would Tie sent on the train which
leaves Sacramento at 5 oclock In the
morning. "Hut that mall does net reach
here until noon." exclaimed the warden,
"and Durrant is to be hanged at 10
oclock."
Secretary Shields set him at rest by
declaring that the reprieve was in force
the moment It was Issued, and that he
had official notification that it had been
issued. He would, therefore, run no
risk ln not hanging Durrant when the
time came.
The result of the mandamus 1 proceed
ings which the governor will at once
bring against Warden Hale to hang Dur
rant on July 9 will probably settle the
fate of both Durrant and Worden, as a
speedy decision is expected.
Under King or President He Wants
Loyalty
ROME. June 10.—The Observat'oir:-
Roma publishes today a long note in
which the pope explains and defines his;
views with reference to Fiance. His
holiness disclaims all intention of recom
mending any preferences for either the
republican or the monarchist form of
government, but, he observes, history
has shown that the interests of religion
in any country are best served by loyal
support of the constituted government,
and he generally reproves those whi;
professing attachment to the holy Eec,
sow the seeds of distrust by looking
askance at or combating particular ex
isting governments.
The advice of his holiness concludes
thus: "Moved' by a constant affection
for France nnd In abiding hope, with the
allaying of passions, his words will be
heeded by all, the pope has no doubt
that God will abundantly bless those
who sacrifice their own predilections
for the common good."
The Native Daughters
SONORA, June 10.—Little was accom
plished at tlie day session of the N. D. G.
W., the committee on grievances having
reported a matter that precipitated a
wrangle which consumed a greater portion
of the day. Adjournment was taken at 10
a. m. until 1 p. m., to enable the grand
parlor members to participate In the grand
parade. Fully 1500 people were in line. It
was whispered this evening that the grand
parlor could not possibly conclude its la
bors by Friday evening: that history will
repeat itself, and that the Piedmont epi
sode will have an ending which will require
much time. The following officers were
elected: Mrs. Belle W. Conrad (Sonora),
grand president: Lena H. Mills (Stockton),
grand vice-president; Mrs. Georgia C.
Ryan (San Francisco), grand secretary;
Miss Lizzie Douglas (San Francisco),
grand treasurer; Miss Rose Day (San
Francisco), grand marshal; Miss Callie
Shields (Plymouth), grand inside sentinel.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., June 10.—Miss
Leona Goodman, one of the most popular
society belles of Dardanelle. was killed in
a moat shocking manner at Rover. Ark.,
last night. The Yell county normal is be
ing held at that place, and a large number
of teachers are in attendance. Last night
a party of young ladies and gentlemen
were out serenading, and went to a house
where a young teacher named Llpp was
stopping. When awakened by the sere
nades. Llpp deliberately fired a pistol shot
Into the serenading party. The bullet
struck Miss Goodman in the neck, causing
Instant death. The murderer was arrested
and spirited away to Danville by the o.*
flcers, who feared that an attempt would
be made by the excited people to lynch
him.
STOCKTON. June 10.-The first regular
passenger train over the Sierra Pacific
railroad, from Oakdale to Cooper's station,
nineteen miles east of the starting point,
brought a carload of passengers from
mountain points to Oakdale today, and
they made close connection with the
Southern Pacific train and reached San
Francisco tonight. Passengers for Yo
semite. who formerly went via Milton,
now take the stage at Cooper's. One stage
will continue to connect with trains at Mil
ton, but most of the travel will go over the
new route. The staging distance from
Cooper's to Sonora Is twenty-four miles.
LISBON. June 10.—The cortes re
opened today. The royal message an
nounced that the budget balanced, with
the aid of an internal loan: demanded
authority to convert the foreign debt,
without an Increase of the present charge
to the treasury, and referred to projected
works at Lorenzo Marquez. Portuguese
East Africa, where, it is explained, "In
conformity with the aspirations of the
country, it Is necessary to maintain the
dominion of Portugal." The latter state
ment Is evidently an answer to the fre
quently reported sale of Deiagoa bay to
Great Britain.
OAKLAND. June 10.—At a special elec
ton held in this city. Golden Gate, Peralta
and Piedmont today, the voters decide!
that Greater Oakland was desirable and
the measure met with great approval. The
addition of the three towns increases the
population by nearly 10.000. and it Is said
that property will advance considerably.
The measure was defeated by sixty-four
votes three years ago. but the smaller
property owners have kept up an incessant
fight for the cause and today won the vic
tory, there being little opposition, though
the voting was comparatively light.
SAN FRANCISCO .June 10.—The South
ern Pacific has announced a great reduc
tion in its rates on cattle and sheep from
Nevada to eastern points, which goes into
effect June 14th. and is as follows: Cattle,
per standard car. from Reno to Missouri
river ami common points. $155; Mississippi
river and common points, $177.55; Chicago
and common points. $195. The same rates
apply to the sheep In double-decked cars.
The reduced rates are expected to result
In a great movement of cattle and sheep
from Nevada during the next few weeks.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 10.—Taking of
testimony was commenced today in the
case of Chun Woon Sing, charged with
the murder of "Little Pete." Dr. Morgan
described the wounds of the deceased. Po
lice Officer Russell described several dia
grams of the premises where the killing
occurred. Two Chinese witnesses de
scribed the murder, but they were both
unable to identify the defendant as one of
the assassins.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 10.—At its
meeting today the Manufacturers and Pro
ducers' association entered a protest
against the proposed reduction of the wine
tariff. A telegram was sent to the Cali
fornia delegation ln congress protesting
against the proposed senate changes in the

Desperately—Weyler's Recall Is

Associated Press Special Wire.
BOSTON, June 10—The United States'
cruiser New York, Ilagshlp cf the North
Atlantic squadron, with Rear Admiral
Montgomery Sicard. steamed out of the
harbor at 5 oclock this afternoon, not
a soul on board knowing to what por:
she is bound, for it will only be when the
big white cruiser Is well outside of Bos
ton light, with her pilot over the side,
that the sealed orders will be opened
and her destination ascertained. It is
generally believed, however, that when
she reaches Cape Cod she will turn her
nose to the southward, and that her
screws will not stop until she is some
where In the immediate neighborhood of
Cuba; for when she started she was
fully prevlsioned and coaled', and could
If necessary go to Gibraltar or a long
distance without laying in supplies.
The New York arrived here on May
26th to participate ln the ceremonies at
tending the unveiling of the
ument. The battleship Massachusetts
came with the flagship, while the bat
tleship Texas had arrived some days
previously. The Texas left a few days
ago. but the other ships have been swing
ing at their moorings off the navy yard
until today.
The rear admiral might have had some
inkling of an important cruise from the
fact that for the last few days the en
tire crew of the New York have been
hard at work getting the ship ready for
.sea, while her coal bunkers have been
filled to overflowing.
Shortly after 4 oclock the guns of the
cruiser hoomeda parting salute t to,Com
modore Hcwlson of the navy yard. Th-;
anchor was weighed and the cruiser
swung around in the ftream and started
, nut to sea. although a furious gale way
blowing.
RETICENT OFFICIALS
WASHINGTON, June 10—The navy
department officials were singularly re
served about the movements of the na
vy, and showed an indisposition to an
swer any questions. Secretary Long, In
answer to a direct interrogation, re
plied:
"The New York is not going to Cuba;
she will next be heard from at some
point on the Atlantic coast well north
of Cuba."
The secretary refused to answer fur
ther. It was learned, however, that the
cruiser Is expected to report next at
Hampton Roads, and that she will be at
sea about two days. It is surmised thai
the navy department, which has been
charged of late with the whole duty of
looking after filibusters afloat, has been
advised of the intention of some formid
able expedition bound for Cuba to put
out from some northern port.
In such case the department would
send out a smaller cruiser usually, but
it is said that at this time it was a
case of choice cf the vessel able to get
under way first.
INSURGENTS ACTIVE
NEW YORK, June 10.—A dispatch to
the Journal from Havana says; Four
thousand insurgents from the Eastern
Department, led by Gen. Rodriguez and
Gen. Quintln Banderas, have crossed
Matanzas, entered Havana province,
and are now menacing the town of
Guineas.
Pinar del Rio advices report a hot
fight three days ago within sight of the
town of Consolation del Sur. Two
Spanish Captains, a Lieutenant and 16
privates were killed and the rebels were
compelled to retire in great disorder.
In another engagement upon the La
Louisa sugar estate near Port Cabanas
between Mariel and Bahla Honda, the
Spanish column had 30 killed and up
wards of one hundred wounded. This
was in Weyler's so-called pacified dis
trict. The insurgents after the fight re
tired into their fortified positions In
Maceo's old stronghold, the Rubl hills.
Weyler telegraphed ordering six col
umns to march against them, but not a
word of the defeat at La Louisa has beer
cabled to the War Department at
Madrid.
RESIGNED IN DISGUST
NEW YORK, June 10.—A dispatch
to the Journal from Havana pays: An
other cf Weyler's Generals, Lono, In
spector General of the civil guard forces
in Cuba and Military Governor of Ha
vana, has resigned in disgust and ex
pects to leave the island by the trans
atlantic liner sailing on June 30 for Spain
direct.
Lono regards Weyler's early recall as
quite assured, and thinks that Blanco or
Lopez Dominguez will come out as his
successor, ,
Weyler Is reported to have cabled
Canovas, Insisting that Minister Dupuy
de Lome demand frum the Washington
government the extradition of Nunez,
Cartaya and Arteaga, alleged filibusters
recently captured by the United States
on the Florida coast, alleging old crim
inal indictments again-st the three of
them, said to be yet pending in the courts
here.
WEYLER'S RECALL.
NEW YORK, June 10.—A Herald dis
patch from Havana Eays: It is believed
here, now that the lung-suppressed news
of the affairs In Madrid has been made
public, that General Weyler's return to
Spain will be made the most important
success of Canovas" return to power.
Private telegrams have been sent to per

In fact, it is felt here that Campos,

the popular eye, would not on any ac
count lend himself to the continuation of
General Weyler's policy. The plan Is to
send General Marin here from Porto Ri

General Blanco or Campos.

STRUCK BY A CYCLONE
MINNESOTA AND IOWA TOWNS
SUFFER
New England Swept by Storms of Un
usual Violence and Considerable
Damage Is Reported
MASON CITY, la., June 10.—At 6:30
oclock tonight a cyclone struck north
west of Lyle, Minn., taking a south
easterly course. Several people are re
ported killed and injured. The cyclone
tore up houses and other buildings in its
course, and the territory is now bare.
The path of the storm was about half a
mile in width. All telegraph lines north
are down, and box cars on sidings were
smashed into kindling. A cyclone pass
ing over the town of Kandlyoh, Wilmar
county, Minn., entirely demolished the
buildings of John Berquist's farm.
IN IOWA
MINNEAPOLIS. Minn., June 10.—A
special from Osage, lowa, to the Trib
une confirms the report of the cyclone,
and says six persons were killed and a
number injured. A special train will
take surgeons from that place.
IN COLORADO
DENVER, Col., June 10.—A very heavy
rain storm, accompanied by terrific light
ning, vlo-ited this city and vicinity this
evening, which caused considerable
damage.
A special to the Rocky Mountain
News from Brighton, Col., says: One of
the most terrible storms ever known in
this section prevailed this afternoon.
Two dense clouds, one to the northwest,
the other In the southeast, joined at a
point southeast of here, and the result
wa3 a water spout that sent an ava
lanche of water down through the val
ley between Second and Third creeks,
devastating farms and sweeping away
bridges. About a mile of track of the
Union Pacific is under water There was
a severe hail storm accompanying the
rain, doing considerable damage to
crops.
IN NEW ENGLAND
BOSTON, June 10.—New England was
visited by a storm last night whicn,
from the amount of damage done, was
one of the worst for many years. Ac
cording to official records the. actual
amount of rain was not unusual. It
came down with great violence. Rail
roads suffered most severely, particu
larly the Boston and Main and its
branches in New Hampshire. Wrecks
occurred at Exeter, while trains were
stalled in many other places by se
rious washouts. Traffic between Boston
and the North and East is greatly Im
peded. All the rivers are swollen lo
a height approaching that of the famous
spring of 1896. At Dover, N. H., where
in 1896 four bridges and a business block
were carried away by floods, the Co
checo mills were compelled to suspend
operations. At Amesbury, Mass., work
in carriage factories was impeded.

Associated Press Special Wire.
WASHINGTON. June 10—The Senate
began work at 11 a. m.. today, and the
tariff bill was taken up as soon as rout
ine business was out of the way.
Senator Tillman of South Carolina,
took the floor on the pending amendment
of Cannon ot Utah, providing an export
bounty on agricultural products. He saidi
j he desired the attention of his associates,
j and, as the attendance was meager, he
j noted the absence of a quorum. A call
disclosed 54 Senators present, 9 more than
a quorum, and Tillman proceeded. He
said the tariff debate had disclosed a
nebulous condition In the minds of the
Senators. Republican Senators sat quiet
ly, apparently controlled by a caucus, re
fusing to discuss the iniquities of the bill
and unanimously voting for exactions mi
behalf of trusts and monopolies.
Mr. Allen of Nebraska briefly spoke in
favor of an export bounty.
Mr. Perkins of California announced
his readiness to support the export
bounty if modified so as to confine the
bounty to goods exported in vessels fly
ing the flag of the United States andi
documented In custom houses of tho
United States. He proposed an amend
ment to this effect.
There was some opposition from Mr.
Tillman and Mr. Allen, but Mr. Cannon,
author of the original amendment, said
he was disposed, as a means of securing
the support of Mr. Perkins and others of
the Republican side of the chamber, to
accept this new proposition If 75 per cent
of the bounty should go to the agricul
tural exporter and 25 per cent to tha
American vessel.
Mr. Perkins declined to acept this sug
gestion, saying he was not seeking a sub
sidy for the vessel men, but merely to
limit the bounty to goods carried in
American ships.
The Utah senator could, Mr. Perkins
said, either accept or reject the amend
ment as a who'.e. Mr. Cannon declined
to acept the amendment, and Mr. Per
kins thereupon withdrew it.
The Senate defeated the Cannon
amendment, giving an export bounty ou
agricultural products—yeas 10, nays 59.
The sugar schedule of the tariff bill was
then taken up.
Senator Jones of Arkansas opened tbe
debate on the sugar schedule. He said
there should be a single rate on raw and
refined sugar, giving one-eighth of a
cent addition, which would make the
rate plain.
Pettigrew of South Dakota gave no
tie that he would offer his amendment to
admit free of duty goods made by trusts
in connection with, the schedule. Alli
son asked ! that the proviso relating to the
Hawaiian islands go over. He said in
this connection that the action of the
senate committee relative to the Ha
waiian pro'positicn was due to a purpose
to exclude Hawaiian sugar. The com
mittee had never considered the ques
tion, and had let It go over for future
consideration.
Later, he thought, a proposition on
that branch of the subject would be pre
sented. Allison, in. behalf of the com
mittee, then movedan amendment strik
ing out 875-1000 and inserting 95-100 as
the duty on refined sugars.
Jones of Arkansas was recognized for
a speech on the general features of tho
sugar schedule.
The senator had before him small bot
tles showing the various grades of sugar,
raw and refined, and with these illus
trated his argument as he proceeded.
He asserted that the new sugar propo
sition would increase the profits of ths
sugar refiners in every point. If that
was the purpose of the managers of th*
bill they should let it be known. He-was
in favor of a tax on sugar, but he be
lieved it should be made-as light as pos
sible and should give no special benefit
to anybody.
Early in his remarks Mr. Jones re
ferred to the unfairness of Mr. Aldrich's
statement on the sugar schedule In
speaking of the difference between Ger
man sugar and the raw sugar coming
to this country.
The comparison was not a fair one,
Mr. Jones contended, as the German su
gars could not be compared to the Amer
ican. When figuring on the amount that
should go to the refiners, the American
article, raw and refined, must be con
sidered rather than the German. With
great emphasis Mr. Jones declared that
he proposed to see that there was some
contention before German granulated
was taken as the basis for finding the
differential due to the refiner.. Mr. Jones
insisted that the grades of sugar com
pared by Mr. Aldrich In his speech did
not compare. He stated that the price
of refined sugar upon which Mr. Aldrich
based his calculations of 2.30 cents wai
too low. It should have been 2.66 he
said. Still, taking Aldrlch's figures, Mr.
Jones calculated a margin of from .43 to
.53 cents per pound to the refiners. He
announced that this schedule, which, it
was claimed, gave less profit than tho
house schedule, he had looked conscien
tiously into the question without preju
dice, and he became satisfied that a clear
differential of one-eighth of a cent wa»
right. Under that differential the com
panies' profits had Increased. How could
the other side now justify a further In
crease of the differential? He should
