Todcy's clearings, 219,19T; eame day last year, THE GOVERNOR'S FIRE. The Loss More Serious Than at First Ap-proximated. The even temper and proverbial immobil-ity of Governor Thomas was somewhat upset this morning when he learned that the loss by lire and water to his handsome dwelling had been reported by the fire department at about .X, and the authorized representa-tive of tbe insurance companies was hunted up. In company with this emissary he had been to the blistered residence and the loss was placed at a figure between $2000 and $3000. The interior, said the executive, has been eo seriously damaged by water that it will be. necessary to tear out the wails and replace them entirely. The ceilings were tapped in a dozen places and buckets of water came pouring down into the rooms destroying carpets, bedclothes and their con-tents generally. "I don't know," continued Governor Thomas, "who assumes the riirht to approximate the damages on a building that has been visited by tire or what the motive can be unless ' to prejudice the rights of the beneficiary to risks, or to reduce the losses by fire under a pending administration. I say that 55!J will not repair the damages to the roof and place it in condition as secure as it s originally, and every man carries insurance believing that when by some unforeseen cause his property is destroyed or injured, his loss will be restored." The governor will at once proceed with re-pairs, and ,hopcs to get back into a home that was surrounded with every comfort again iu a few days. BY TOD AND WAYE. - STORIES OF WRECK AND .

Howard Held l"p to a Severe Rebuke and Sentenced to One Year He Denounces the Witnesses and Swears He'll Get Their Scalps in Time. The Howard adultery ca?e is at an end. The motion for a new trial was overruled by Judge Zaue this morning and the prisoner sentenced to imprisonment of one year in the penitentiary. The battle was a ficrc one and the result reflect credit upon the vanquished as upon the victor. John R. Howard who was left to bear the burden mIoe ; w hen the prosecution dismissed the action against the dent, Mrs. Eliza Everett, died game with hid diminuative fi rm muffled in a huge over-coat. His lawyers appealed to every strata-gem in their efforts to cheat the turnkey buS failed and the case goes on record as ouo of the most eventful that has taken placo under Judge Zauo's exciting reign. L pon the reopening of the case this morn, ing the motion fjr a new trial was taken up. Mr. Marsh, associate counsel for the de. fense contended that the prosecution had failed to make out a stronger case than "sus. picion," and that Kione was not sufficient. ( The court concurred iu the deduction that suspicion alone w as not sufficient to justify a verdict of guilty, but turning to Assistant United States Attorney Stephens indicated to him that it was not necessary to reply tj counsel. Mr. Hamilton, whose neck haj been slowly wasting away under the; dull tooth of a carbuncle took the floor in behalf of the prisoner and attacked thti evidence of the littie daugh. tcr, who had figured prominently in aveng. ing her father's wrongs. "Now l'e get you!" she exclaimed as sh9 surprised the mother while the sat upon th adulterer's lap. "This seems to have been the Eureka of her search,"' 6a;d Mr. Hamilton ; "she seemed to be conspiring with her ire." Mr. Sicphrns replied briefly simply rejuv-enating the story of the liason as it tripped along with time and becoming bolder with, each change in the temple of illicit adulation. Nor h?d the court forgotteu any of its saTa ion details for finding it now in hii hands )ir ret forth to review it front the tints it opened. The evidence, said Judge Zane, was thafc Everett had been a subject of Great Britain as was also Howard. Some months after their meeting Mrs. Everett arrived in Ogden and joined her husband. Howard was at the depot to meet her as the husband's newly formed friend. He became a frequent visi-tor to the lodging house over which Mrs. Everett' presided. Everett finally cama to Salt Lake and was followed by his wife who went to Howard's resi-dence where she remained several days. Her huscaud prepared a home and asked her to it. She declined to go to him aad was spirited away under an assumed name. They were unearthed at Mill Creek, came back to the city and How ard rented a house for her. The doors, the exits were conve-niently arranged for the defendant who could enter aud depart without, attracting attention. Me visited Mrs. Everett at night the docs not show at .what huui " hs' took his''prtuce. There wa& liant 'opportunity ior-"-'Uic- - intercourse 1 theyIetarad it, and in the light of all rirl cumstances it is difficult W. redonejle thi conduct of Howard and Mrs. Everett to 9T-J-other theory than that expressed in the - " " diet of the jury. Howard had a wife rana home of his own. I am unabie to understand why he should hare taken so much interest in this woman there seems to have been a very intimate friendship from the very first blush of their acquaintance. Turning to Howard who sat motionless during this review of his littie peccadilloes, the court ordered him to his feet. Grasping the bottom of his overcoat pockets he tooU his stand. "How old are you Mr. Howard?" asked the court. "Turned fifty" replied the prisouer hoarso iy- - "You have a wife and children?" "Yes sir." '"How many waives have you had?' "Three." ''Eliza Everitt was not one of them I eup pose?" "No sir" replied Howard his voice tremb liui. "The court" continued Judge Zaue, rivet-ing his eyes on a copy of the Uuited States statutes, "is allowed to tix your punh-hmcu- b at as much a three years but it is left discre tionary with it. In lookina: iuti your offen-- e I see nothing to palliate, nothing to mitigate it, nothing to excuse it it is inexcusable. You have a.1 wife and a family of your own: you say you've had three. You induced Mrs. Ever. r.tt In lfirri hfr hiuhgnrl t r KTvaV- - lie family. Siie was not, perhaps, a bad woman originally, but possessed of weaknesses on, which you preyed. You kept aud provided Tr her, thereby breaking up a home the foundation of good society. You have shown yourself au enemy to virtue and chastity, and it becomes the duty of thf courts to rebuke these crimes and U set an ex-ample before man in the punishment of, them. If the law had known any other way of suppressing them it would have pre-scribed it, but the experience of mankind i that punishment is the only method. You are sentenced to one year's imprisonment." Howard staggered, bent over Assistant. L'nited States Attorney Stephens to whom he addressed something in an undertone and then followed Bailiff Sprague to the United States Marshal's office where he produced a flask of cough medicine and began to receive his sympathizers. "You can sec now," said the prisoner fiercely. that there was a conspir. acy. Everett aud Beverly both per-jured themselves and I'll have 'cm yet. They've been lighting me for two years-- hut I'd rather go to the penitentiary ou evi-dence that did not convict me than if I was guilty. The effects of the ordeal combined with the convict's wrath began to betray them-selves and Mrs. Howard, a confiding littltj woman, appearing he greeted her with soma imperious command that drove her away, and then subsided in sullen reflection in a chair to await the signal to move to the pen-itentiary. The great case was over. CRACKSMEN AT "WORK AN ATTACK ON THE FIFTH WARD CO-O- LAST NICHT. So Money But a Long List of Valuable Ar-ticles Reward Them Detective Dag-gett Resigns Suspicious Charac-ters Run In Pickings.

Jerry Connors, Bert Livington, John Ben-nett and Harry Hastings were sighted by Sergeant Donovon and officer Armstrong in the rear of the State bank of Utah shortly aftcr midnight and a raid made upon them.' Another prowler who saw the advancing bluecoats took to his heels but a shot from special watchman Burgess failed to halt hint and he disappeared in the gloom. Unable to give an account of them-selves and for their prcseuce in the vicinity of a bank at such an untimely hour in the morning they were thrown iu jail to await an examination. It is suspected that they are members of the gang who have been an-noying shop owners ou Market row. A Voluntary Resignation. On Tuesday lait Detective Daggett ap-peared voluntarily before Marshal Young and to him stated that it was due himself to retire from the position until such time as the embarrassments into which he had been dragged were disposed of and he had shown himself not only Innocent of the charges but free from the tj guest sus-picion.

The Plans of :he Revolutionists The Cab-inet Compilations in Chile Promise to Re Amicably Adjusted An-other Balmacedist Suicides. Lorcox, Nov. 13. A Santiago correspon-dent of the Time says: Further advices are rseeived from liio Grande do Sul to the effect that the garrison at San Gabriel and Page have also revolted against the dictatorship of Fonseca. A lattr telegram says that in Eio Grande do Sul the opposition to Fonseca is triumphing a.most wholly throughout the province without serious lighting. Paris, Nov. 13. An official telegram was received in this'city today from Rio Janeiro regarding the Brazilian diplomatic service and the condition of the finances of country. Th despatch stated that all the legations hitherto established in the various European and other countries will be maintained. Re-lative to the financial situation in Brazil, at least so far as the government is concerned, the despatch says, all the conditions are ex-tremely satisfactory to the authorities. Rio Jaxieko, Nov. 13. Reports are cur-rent iu this city to the effect that the army and navy forces are making preparations to proclaim Fonseca life dictator of Brazil. The government is securing a full coinple- - ment of men for the war ships by means of impressment. A number of officers have siurted from Rio Grande du Sul, at which place it is reported that those who have taken part in the revolutionary movement against the dictator are now completely in control of the government. Nip-- Yokk, Nov. 13. The Herald $ Valpa-raiso cable says: The latest advices from Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil are to the effect that ing in size hourly, and the rebels show great boldness. One band fully armed attacked aud captured the town of Santa Ana. Yugararon, Santos, Victoria and Porto Ale-gr- o are said to be the only towns that sup-port the dictatorship. All others iu Rio Grande do Sul are said to have espoused the side, of the rebels. The plans of the insurgents are not yet fully understood, but it is said that they will lose no tirae in attacking the towns which remain true to the dictator. Their object seems to be to gain possession of these places before the arrival of thf gunboats, monitors and transports which Fonseca has sent to quell the insurrection. The 80,000 Germans in the state are said to be among the warmest partisans of Fonseca. A goodly proportion of them served in the German army. There are some o000 Brazilian sol-diers in Rio Grande do Sul. They form nearly one-ha!- f of all the government forces. The spirit of discontent has often manifested itself in their ranks. Visiones De Poletas, who is said to be one of the chiefs of the revolutionists, is 62 years old, and a former governor of Grande do Sul. He succeeded Martinez. He was a warm friend of Martinez, and this fact becoming known to the government, he was ousted from office and Marshal De Frota appointed in his place. He also was a friend of Mar-tinez, and was succeeded by the present governor, Costilla, whose loyalty to Fcnseca does not appear to be in the least questioned. It is reported that the states' of Bahia and Pernambuco, as well as Rio Grande do Sul, intend to declare their independence. London, Nov. 13. Tiie Itai'a Tfhgrttph this morning publishes a Rio Janeiro teie-gia-which is regarded as trustworthy say-ing that the governor and provincial assem-bly opposes the coup Wetet of President da j Fonseca. THE ANARCHISTS AGAIN RAIDED, Loud Mouthed Reds Quailed Before Offi- -: cer and Threw up Their Hands. Chicago, Nov. 13. Within a bomb's throw of th. Haymarket armed anarchists last night again met the Chicago police. The result ;was an ignominous defeat for the reds. A mass meeting of the most radical kind was announced to be held in Grieff's H n West Lake street, the place celebra-ta- u m the annals of Spies and Parson's fol-lowers. The decision unexpectedly display-ed by the authorities Wednesday night in compelling the anarchists gathering in West Twelfth street to hoist the stars and stripes, had a disconcerting effact, and at the last moment last night it w as decided to make the gathering secret, and to only admit a few of the most trusted spirits. Accordingly, the master of ceremonies, Thomas Grieff, proprietor of the big saloon below the hall, announced that his place upstairs had been previously engaged, thus diainissinj; the general rabble. Those who could be depended upon went upstairs. There were gathered many of those who were the leaders before the Haymarket mas-sacre. ' Speeches were made in English and German, and the enthusiasm was great. The American flag was not there. It was thought that the police had been completely hoodvlnked. In this, however, the reds were mistaken. A detective has been for several days cultivating the acquaintance of the orators. He was admitted to the meet-ing, and before long got word out to In-spector Lewis at the Desplaines 6treet station that inflammatory speeches were being made ; that a number of those in the meet-ing were displaying arms and boasting of the uss they would be put to in case the police interfered. in the salocn below 200 men were gathered and apaeche3 were being rnade scarcely less incendiary than those above. Ii wasevident that trouble might occur at any moment. Suddenly, at a signal given by tho detective Jn the meeting, the police made the raid. Fifty men in plain clothes guarded the rear of tho building end allowed no person to leive. Inspector Lewis and Captain Ma-hone- y, at tho head of 100 uniformed officers, marched to the front door, taking the meet-ing completely by surprite. Proprietor Grieff saw the bluecoats, and attempted to shut the doors in their faces. His effort was iatih however, as one blow Ivom a club shattered the glass, a vigorous kick burst the door iu, and a double line of officers poured into the rooms. The men who, a moment before, had been boasting of their intention to hurl defiance into the teeth of the Chicago police, uiadc a rush for the rear doota, but at the sight of the guns there displayed bolted and, with one or'iwo exceptions, showed every symptom of cow-ardice, i "Throw up your hanus," shouted Inspect-or Lewis. At the command four hunared hands went into the air, and the officers com-menced a search for weapons. Those found to possess revolvers or other anus were fdaced under arrest, while the others were into the street and told to leave the vicinity a,i once. One little fellow who wore a flaming neck-tie, tacked atrainst the wall, and, drawing from his pocket a wicked looking revolver, snapped it in the face of j. policeman. Fortunately tho cartridge m'ssed fire and, before the Wijuld-b- e murderer could again ' press the. trigger, a blow from a club had Knocked theHin from his hand. 1' Another Llo4f JjUrsty indi visual endeavored to ue a reoixfyfng curses against all ; tBepolicB :ln&-tta3arw- , when his weapon rasr.8 i Ai.mHc declared him- - K elCftyT iVbTo die,,.ahd dared . f : him.

These men were quUkly overpowered and t,ae police rushed ut and broke intd the se-cret meeting. Two hundred and fifty men were arrested. A large amount of inflam-matory literature was captured and a num-ber of red flags torn from Ac walls and des-troyed. Within the secret portals the only real resi6tence encountered by the police came from three unknown men, w ho iu the rush escaped. " They jumped behind the bar as the officers entered and began throwing bot-tles and glasses. A number of otticcrsTwere struck, but not &eriously nurt. Among those arrested was one of tho edi-tors of the Arbeiter Ztitunq, the German daily paper, successor to Spies & Parsons' rabid sheet, and which has decided anarch-istic prineiolcs. This man was making a speech in the meeting when the officers en-tered. He made a plea for his release, claim ing that he was there in the capacity of a reporter. The police, however, would not accept this pita. Among the prisoners found armed were several well known to the police, and who were prominent in the ranks of the anarchists five and six year ago, when the red flag was so often seen on the streets of Chicago. Inspector Lewis announced thnt he w-i-il demand the revoking of Grieff's license. Inspector Lewis said that, while he was in command of that division, no meetings would be held with an incendiarv intention. One officer in citizen's clothes, who was in the crowd before the raid was made, re-ports that one of the speakers said that the anarchists were now stronger thau ever be-fore, and prepared to give the police a big dose of medicine administered at the Hay-market. Another detective listened to a speech de-claring that the police had no right to inter-fere with any meeting, and that the time would soon come when the police force will be completely annihilated. Another officer was treated to au interesting speech, hearing it stated tnat every policeman ought to be hang. It was possible the reds would have to satisfy themselves with assassination. Most of the prisoners were released on bail, Thomas Grieff going on the bonds of a ma-jority of them. Officer Sullivan, who was in the secret meeting, told Inspector Lewis that one of the speakers x'roposed a revival of tbe use of dynamite bombs, aud also a re-vival of the "group" system, by which so much was once accomplished. Anti-Semitis- m In France. Paris, Nov. 13. In the deputies yesterday Laur accused Rouvier, minister of finance, of subjecting French finances to the control of Jewish financiers. Laur then demanded th'! expulsion of Jewish bankers from France. Rouvier, replying, declined to hold any discussion ou such a proposition as that i made by Laur in regard to the Jews. The j country's finances, Rouvier declared, were J managed with the greatest prudence. The I motion of Laur was dismissed 431 to 32. Damaged by tho Storm. Loxdox, Nov. 13. The British ship Talis-man from Tacoina, June 12, for Havre, passed Deal today.

A collision occurred between cars on the Salt Lake City railway at the intersection of Third South and Main street shortly before 8 o'clock last evening, which resulted in in-juries to Isadore Morris and a lady passenger whose name could not be ascertained. At the time an east bound car was ap-proaching the curve from the north while a north bound car was coming from the south. There was a sounding of gongs, and then a terrific crash, the east bound car reel-ing from the track, the north bound staggering on the tracks, as if it had encoun-tered a piliar of stone. The passengers were badly shaken up, aud that the crews escaped without loss of life is miraculous. One of the cars was damaged about the roof which was badly splintered and sent to the repair shops. ANOTHER CROOKED BANKER He Squandered Money and Tried to Hide it Up by Forgeries. Fresno, Cel., Nov. 13. The fact has' be-come public that AV. F. Baird, tmtil recently aud manager of the bank of Madera, located at Madera, is hort in his accounts to the amount of nearly 1100,000. Baird, in connection with John brown, or-ganized the bank of Madeia aud what is known as the John Brown colony. Money was sent Baird by the colonists to develop the land, and used by him iu England for his private schemes. As the losses grew, Baird began to issue forged notes and deposited them iu place of the money used. The forging of checks and drafts followed and later an over-issuin- g of stock to which he forged the signature of the president of the bank. Owing to these irregularities, the Pacific Bank of San Francisco assumed con-trol of the Madera brink in order to fully se-cure themselves against an overdraft by the Madera bank of about $00,000. Baird was deposed and the Pacific bank has remained iu charge ever since. - - - Protesting Against the Lottery. New- York, Nov. 13.
