According to these plans th* war col
lege will be conducted along the same
general lines as have marked the work
of the naval war college at Newport.
General Bliss is of opinion that stu
dents of the war college will have
necessarily advanced beyond the neces
sity of further so-called book learning
which they will have received at the
schools at West Point, Fout Leaven
worth, Fort Riley, Fort Monroe and
Washington barracks. He has there
fore recommended that the students be
required to apply themselves to the de
velopment of the details of especially
devised war problems. Theso problems
would naturally come from the general
staff. It is also proposed to have lect
ures delivered by officers of the various
branches of the service, with special
and direct reference to . the problem
under consideration. The student offi
cers will be expected to take' up the
questions of grand tactics and strategy
and discuss each subject in'Jts positive
relations to the duties of the army.
H. Bliss, president of the faculty of
the army war college, has submitted
to the general staff a memorandum out
lining the plans of the board for the

Several eyewitnesses to the shooting
state that Wilson provoked the trouble
and that Wright was perfectly justi
fied In the shooting. The people of Cas

that they would not allow Wilson 'to

When the little pistol began to spit
fire and lead, every one but Wright and
Wilson hurried out. Wilson was only
twelve feet distant from Wright. The
first three shots missed by a wide
mark, and as the fourth shot rang out
Wilson was turning. He reeled and
fell to the floor, painfully wounded. The
ball passed through the leg one and a
half inches above the ankle.
Wilson was brought to Redding Sun
day night and now occupies a cot in
the county hospital. The shooting was
over 40 cents due for drinks that Wil
son claimed he had paid. Wright in
sisted that the drinks should be paid
for and Wilson in his drunken frenzy
grabbed a chair and threw it over the
bar at Wright. There were six men In
the saloon at the time.

mends the protection of the game in
the forest reserves bordering on the
National Park and reservations; the
return to the old Indian custom of sys
tematically burning over portions of
the forests of the park every fall to
minimize fire danger; amendment of
the rules and regulations so as to ex
plicitly forbid the location of mines,
water and power claims on Govern
ment lands, and any surveying without
the permission of the proper authori
ties; the Government to take immedi
ate possession of all patented lands in

for Custody of the
Friends and relatives of Father Cir
ringione believe the story of the priest,
but the police are awaiting further de
velopments before .taking any action
for the discovery of the alleged abduc
tors. Civil Justice Roesch, an old
friend of the priest, was told by the
latter that there were four me^in the
gang which abducted him. Only one
•was an Italian. One of the other men
was very rough to him and insisted
that he be killed.
He said that he heard the men say
on Saturday that the papers were full
cf the story of his abduction and this
man insisted that he be killed. The
others objected and managed to get
this man Intoxicated and the priest's
life was saved.
The priest said he had been freed but
a few minutes before he had been found
by the policeman. He said he had been
led blindfolded into the passage and
then the bandage had been removed.
Father Cirringione when he left his
home had a gold-mounted ebony cane.
a valuable gold watch and chain and
some money. When found to-day all
were gone.
"They took me to the ocean," he
said, but beyond this the questioners
could get little in detail of where he
had been. He said that when but a few
steps from the doors of his house the
two men grasped him, one grabbing
him by the arms and pinioning them
behind him, v.hile the other thrust over
his nostrils a cloth of some kind satu
rated with a pungent liquid. Then, he
Bays, he lost consciousnes-s and the next
thing he knew was when he found
himself in a d*ark and dismal cellar
with his wrists bound.
I'nder the influence of soothing drugs
Father Cirrinsione became calmer and
was able to tell something of his story.
He said that he had been robbed by
the two men who had pone to his home
on Friday nighi and whom he had ac
companied, believing them to be detec
tives.
A hurried examination of the priest's
physical condition was made by a phy
sician, who found that his worst
wounds were two red marks similar to
those that would have been made had
the priest's 'wrists been bound with a
rope.
• When found to-day Father Cirringione
fell exhausted into the arms of the po
liceman, crying out repeatedly: "They
have robbed me, and they will kill me.
Protect me."
Father Cirringione had incurred the
enmity of Italians about Williams
Bridge by a crusade against vice. He
received several ' threatening letters
and had reported the matter to the po
lice, who were endeavoring to locate
the writers. Late Friday night two
men called upon him and represented
themselves as detectives, asking him to
accompany them to the. station-house.
He did not return and it was believed
he had been carried off by agents of an
Italian secret society.

MEN SCAMPER
FROM BULLETS
It is believed there are no more fatal
ities, although firemen are still search
ing the ruins.
The injured: Michael Corrigan, legs
broken; Harry Vandevelde. suffering
from shock, in hospital, outcome un
certain; Battalion Chief Andrews,
slightly injured about body. '
Duffy and Schweda were Killed al
most instantly, having been caught un
der a falling wall. Reed died an hour
or two later in the hospital.
The fire was in the large street car
barn of the Cleveland Electric Railway
Company on Holmden avenue and
Pearl street and broke out about 3
o'clock from an as yet undetermined
cause. The employes of the sireet car
company believe, however, that it was
of incendiary origin.
There were one hundred motors stored
within the building, which covered an
area of four acres, and the flames
spread like a whirlwind, necessitating
the calling out of all available fire
fighting apparatus in the city. The
motors are valued at about two thou
sand dollars each. The loss on the
building is placed at 530,000.
The fatalities were caused by a wall
falling upon Duffy, Schweda, Reed,
Corrigan and Vandevelde. At 4 o'clock
one hundred frantic firemen had suc
ceeded in uncovering six bruised and
bleeding forms.
Fireman Schweda was dead when
found; Harry Vandevelde had both legs
broken and was internally bruised.
Robert Reed was taken unconscious
from the ruins. The firemen worked
desperately in removing the ymoking,
steaming bricks from their comrades.
The firemen were constantly driven
back from the ruins of the fallen wall
by the smoke and fire. Half a dozen
streams were directed into the debris
in a desperate effort to cool it suffi
ciently so that the work of rescue could
go on.
The first one rescued was Michael
Corrigan, who was pinioned beneath
a mass of bricks. He was pleading
with his comrades to help him. A dash
was made through the smoko and fire
and Corrigan was seized by half a
dozen hands and dragged to a place
of safety. It was found that both of
his legs were broken. Moaning pite
ously, he was taken to a hospital. The
bodies of Duffy and Schweda were next
brought out.
Ten minutes later Robert Reed and
Harry Vandevelde, bruised and burned,
were taken unconscious from the ruins.
Battalion Chief Andrews, who was
standing a little back of his men, was
struck by large pieces of stone and in
jured about the legs. He was taken
home.
