TACOMA, Wash., April 2.— At to-mor row's adjourned meeting of the Pacific Northwest Baseball League a schedule of the season's games will presented by President Lucas. John B. Coleman, rep resenting the San Francisco Club, is likely to demand a larger number of games for San Francisco than the schedule provides for. His claim will be that San Francisco's population and im portance entitlo her to nine Kames more than other cities.

April 2.— Contradictory reports •were circulated yesterday concerning the Injuries of Baron de Pallange, who acted as chauffeur for Count Zborowskl, and led to the announcement of his death. It developed to-day, however, that the Bar on did not succumb to his injuries and the physicians in attendance express the hope that he will recover if complica tions do not set In. He sufficiently re covered to-day to give details of tho ac cidert. The Baron said Count Zborowski was extremely nervous and made the mistake of going at a speed of 90 kilo meters, which rendered it Impossible to turn sharply at the point in the road where it was necessary to do so. CHATTFFEUB. FOR COUNT ZBOROWSKI MAY RECOVER His death was tragic Stepping- from his porch nearly a week ago, he slipped and fell down the stairs, his head strik ing a flagging and fracturing his skull. He lingered until Tuesday, when he died. More than fifty years ago he began the study of electricity. His first patent was Issued in 1850. Poverty was the bitterest foe to hi3 scientific abilities. P. T. Bar num came to his rescue once by purchas ing one of his motors. For. sixteen years. Dr. Lillie continued his experiments and in 1SGS removed to San Francisco, where he lived until 1883, and then came to Los Angeles. During the real estate boom here he amassed a competency and at the time of his death was worth more than $100,000. Dr. Lillie was a dreamer of truths and Jn the records of the Patent Office at Washington and In the archives of the Smithsonian Institution are written what he has done for electrical science. .His was the first electric motor, and although, like many another inventor. It profited him little, he lived to see the principle which he first applied to mechanics be come the agency of the greatest systems' of power transmission which the world has known since the power of steam was discovered. LOS ANGELES, April 2.— An electric car bore to a grave in Pasadena to-day the remains of John Hoyt Lillie. the Inventor of the electric motor. At the close of a remarkable career, lacking in length ten years of a rounded century, the achievement of a • mighty dream served as a vehicle to bear the dreamer's clay to the earthen hoouse.

The liberty which has prevailed during the present campaign of the various can didates for Governor of the State of Nueyp Leon ¦ is out of the ordinary and for some unknown reason President Diai has pursued the policy of "hands off" and has left the candidates to work out their own salvation. The various factions have bcerf holding op'en air meetings, in which orators have denounced each other and tic newspapers have published scandalous attacks and have dealt In direct personal end outrageous insults to men active in the contest.

CAUSES LOSS. TO 'CITY Since January 14 the three ' brothers— Tomas. the President. Marcial and Jose Maria— have beeji continually intoxicated^ Tomas was bad'enough, but his brothers were dangerous. During that time it was not an unusual sight to see one of them riding up and down the street in front of a favorite saloon, discharging, his revol ver, the police being there only for his protection. No N one cared to visit even the .best hotels for fear of meeting them and the appearance of either in a can tlna was the signal for a general exodus of all present. An American traveler was publicly Insulted by Marcial and, much to the regret of all foreigners, was only prevented from doing him bodily harm by the. timely interference of . natives. Things came at last to such a pass that Tomas, the President, had to put both his brothers In the local penitentiary. Then President Regalado got drunk himself and rode his horse through the market and into the leading dry goods store, breaking the show cases. He final ly fell off the horse and lay In a drunken stupor for several hours while the state carriage waited for him outside. Manuel M. Melendez, ex-President Re galado's private secretary, took occasion while drunk in the Hotel Nuevo Mundo on the 1st lnst. to declare his sentiments toward the American Consul. He began by calling all Americans "ladrones," and then stated to a room full of people that the Consul was a spy for Guatemala; that he was here to make money out of bogus claims. He closed by saying that he would solt In the Consul's face on the first opportunity. . ' REGAL ADO'S DRUNKENNESS. March 1 saw the inauguration of the new President, Pearo Joso Escalon. This was the first peaceful transmission of the reins of government since that of Miguel Santin del Castillo fifty years ago, and was therefor -celebrated with ail possible pomp and ceremony. On the following day the Regalado family left for Santa Ana. The latest sensation here is the report ed demand by Guatemala for payment by Salvador of an indemnity of $3,0O0,C0O sil ver for compelling her to mobilize her army. It is a significant fact, however, that a force is still maintained on Sal vador's frontier, and -that the state of siege there continues in all its vigor. Many natives of Salvador are detained in Guatemala as suspects. It is thought that the present civil war in that republic will be only of short du ration, as Manuel Bonilla, its leader, ia slowly but surely surrounding Teguci galpa. In this affair and contrary to agreement, Boniila has received the most efi'.cacious aid from Regalado— that is, 7r.0O stands of arms, 1,000.000 rounds of rifle ammunition and eight pieces of artillery. Regalado has also .permitted some .S00 Ilondurenos to pass the frontier of Sal vador into Honduras. Sanchez is a man who speaks English perfectly, and while waiting at the local railroad station for the special which was to take him to Acajutla he expressed his opinion of Rcgalado and it was very un complimentary. He also disclosed and confirmed .the existence of the secret pact of Corinto. Sierra of Honduras found himself too far in to back out, so had himself declared "Comandante Gen eral," which is only a paraphrase of "dic tator." .-- -. , . GIVES AID TO BONH/LA. Regalado had declared his intention of keeping the arms and ammunition, but when pressure was brought to bear, he thought better of it and they were sent by special train from Santa Ana, and im mediately shipped south, as were also the Guatemala "emlgrados," Leon Cas tillo. Toledo, Sanchez and others. SAN SALVADOR, March 20.— The prospect of war with Guatemala has en tirely disappeared with the entrance into power of the new administration. At one time the danger of a conflict seemed so imminent that United States Ministers Merry of Costa Rica and Coombs of Guatemala deemed it proper to offer their friendly offices as mediators. The trouble came about in consequence of the secret pact of Corinto, entered into by Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua a year ago, when the three executives agreed upon an alliance to sustain each other in power. This alliance was thought to be a constant menace to Guatemala. Sierra of Honduras kept faith and braved a .civil war; Nicaragua sent a gunboat to Acajutla with men, arms and ammunition; but Regalado, President cX Salvador, got drunk at the critical mo ment and moved too soon, thus upsetting all the calculations. As soon as Regalado regained his sertses he refused to carry out the original plan and the Nicaraguan steamship Momotombo returned to Corin to, but without the war munitions and the leaders of the proposed movement. Guate mala then took a hand in the affair by mobilizing and placing on the frontier 30, 000 men. Cabrera then put Guatemala in a state of siege and sent an ultimatum to Regalado, demanding his compliance within twenty-four hours, with the fol lcwing terms: I — That all arms and ammunition brought from Nicaragua be returned thereto. '2 — That th" Guatemalan refugees brought from Nicaragua be sent out of Salvador.
