.Serious Crime ,
If the evidence upon which the police are
now working turns out to be an expected ,
Bob Limerick and James Harris , who have
had a number of escapades that narrowly
inlssctl sending them both to the peniten
tiary , seem likely to spend a couple of > ears
or so In enforced retirement from their fel
low men A few nights ago a car In the
V/nuBh ! yards was broken Into and some
tobacco and other good ? were stolen. The
police , In nosing about through a lumber
yard In the vicinity , found the stuff hidden
away beneath a pile of lumber , and sta
tioned special officers to watch ami nab the
thieves when they came bick after thi'lr
plunder.
Late Tuesday night Hob Limerick and
James Harris Htole quietly to the place und
were just making off with the stuff when
the watchmen caught Limerick , but Harris
escaped and was not arrested until nearly G
o'clock yesterday morning. The charge
against them Is burglary , and the author
ities have but little doubt that they will
make things exceedingly Interesting for
them. Doth men wore taken to the clt >
jail to await a trial , which will bo given
them this afternoon by Justice rield Lim
erick VVIIH arrested some time ago on another
charge , but succeeded In getting a\vay from
Constable Jackson. In order to make sure
* ) mt the oper.itlon should not be repeated
Jackson slipped a pair of handcuffs on the
wrists of the two men when ho took them
from the justlco shop to thu Jail , fastening
them together. When ho was about to
leave them at the Jail he wanted to take tlic
handcuffs off , but suddenly discovered that
he had lost the key and all search for It was
futile. The men ate supper as Siamese
twins and seemed likely to pass the night In
the same condition.

YAQUIS MASSACRE MEXICAN SOLDIERS
General Torrm r.ccl l > y the U'lly Inillnni
Into n Verln1 > lo Vitllcy of Dentil
mill Nearly Itnlf III * Army
Klllrtl \Voumlcil ,
SAN' DinOO , Cal. , May 2. News Is re-
cclveil liorc that the YaquU have once more
been victorious with their warfare with the
Mexican soldiers. Once ngaln the wily In-
( linns Iia\o ambushed the forces scut against
them.
A day or two ngo n statement was pub
lished tlmt two companies of Mexican
troops stationed at Knaada had been or
dered to Quaymas , Sanorn , on the Quit of
California for Immediate duty. At the
time It was thought to be an ordinary and
unimportant transfer of soldiers , but the
report which now comes Indirectly from the
Mcxlc.m ufllcera at Unsada gl\cs that move
ment a most sensational aspect. Ex-Qov-
ernor Luis 13 Torres , who Is now general
of tlie northern and western departments
of Mexico , It says , has been making nnotliei
campaign against the Yarjuls In South
Sonata and northern Clnaloa. Ho had an
army of o\cr COO men and the plan was to
dispose of the Yutjul question at once and
forever.
I'resldent Diaz selected General Torres
foi this work because of his experience and
supposed . ability to accomplish the desired
purpose. Hut , like the other commanders
who have tried It , according to the report ,
Torres met the Ynquls and was defeated
The report sajs a iorce composed of soldiers
taken from different regiments , accompanied
by a party of national mllltl.i In command
of a lieutenant colonel
, lately arrived from
Mexico , where they had been in pursuit
of the laqiils in the Sierra do Dacatete
On the afternoon of the llfth day of the
march the ti.ill led the pursuers Into a
long 1 < , deep , nanow defile In the Sierra do
Hacatele. The walla of the canon were
almost precipitous , riblng to a height In
some places o\cr 2,000 feet and cov'cred
with brush.
The command was halted and
skirmishers ! pushed forward to uncover any
possible ambush. The skirmish line climbed
the walls and beat the brush
as fur
as pos-
sble without result , and as the trail was
clearly defined In the sand In the bottom
l'eic,1no"the ' colonel of the command
n i
'hem
? forward. Half the dangerous
locally had
been
traversed with
no signs
of life , nor motion from the cllffb towering
above and the men .were ( beginning to
breathe more easily , when suddenly huge
masses of rocks and boulders
cliff nearly 1.500 feet above came from ml the I c

wall to wall down upon the hemmed ?

bloodthlisty foes In such con
fusion It was Impossible for the commands
of officers to be heard , but finally the colonel
founded n wounded bugler with vet llfo
enough to sound a call.
In a few moments , although still In range
of those deadly rocks and rifles , those of the
wounded able to move with assistance were
started back down the canon , while those
who were able to offer resistance fired volley
after volley at random Into the bushes on the
cliffs and had the satisfaction of
seems a
half-naked Ynqul leap convulsively from his
hiding place and come whirling down through
1,000 feet of space.
As rapidly as possible the survivors of
this awful onslaught fought their way back
to open ground , where their foe had not
dared to follow , and after a brief rest
dragged thembelves back along the route
over which they had marched so cheerfully
the day before.
The number of killed cannot be accurately
stated , but out of the column of 500 men It
is said at least 200 are cither killed or
wounded. An additional force of 200 militia
has been organized at Hermoslllo and the
campaign against his party of reds will be
pushed vigorously.
Torres himself and a small party of
soldiers letreatcd to Guaymab where , accordIng -
Ing to one version which has reached En-
sada , he has been placed under arrest be
cause of his failure. This Is not generally
believed. At any rate , all the Mexican
troops of Lower California and Clnaloa are
to bo mobilized and another campaign or
ganized against the Yaquls , but whether
General Torres Is to lead It or not remains
to be seen.
It Is said that Don Jarob Corda , a young
doctor , after the encounter In the canon , loft
a place called La Mesa with a small escort
to attend the wounded , and on passing a
place called Arenas fell Into an ambush
prepared by the same party of Yaquls. Ac
cording to report he was slain in n most
cruel manner , the savages first flaying his
feet and making him walk. They finally
lanced him.
The Sierra de Dacateto Is ten days jour
ney from Quaymas and Is a very rugged , wild
country , one of the strongholds of the
Yaquls. It Is said that only 100 or 200
Yaquls were In the rebellion. Further de
tails from Guaymas are expected. The
Yaquls are to .Mexico what the Apaches are
to Arizona only If anything they arc more
cruel. They aie magnificent specimens of
manhood , few befng under b\\ \ feet , and have
almost unlimited powers of endurance.
They have been entirely subdued , but they

Millionaire John Soott Oliiugcil with I'riiuil-

PHILADELPHIA , May 2. John Scott , the
millionaire coal shipper of this city and Bos
ton , Is being sued for $100,000 damages. The
plaintiff Is his daughtcr-ln-law , who Is still
his daughter-in-law , for the divorce granted
In Deadwood , S D. , has been set aside by the
court there and the case will have to bo
tried over.
The first that Mr. Scott know of the mar-
rlago of his son , Mlfllln Scott , to Hcdwlg
Elvira Morchen was his meeting the couple
at Southampton on their bridal trip , while
he , with his wife and daughter , was about
starting for n tour on the continent. Mr ,
Scott sent the bridegroom back to his studies
at Heidleberg , which ho did not know ho had
left until ho saw him as a benedick on the
deck of the steamship. The brldo ho took
with his wife and daughter on his trip where
for u tlmo all seems to have gene well ex
cept that young Mrs , Scott complained that
nar futher-ln-law was very curious about her
past life.
This state of things , however , was inter
rupted by a letter addressed to the bon ,
which. In the son's absence , the father
opened , This letter was a midwife In Iler-
lln , who claimed that young Scott owed her
bill for services rendered his wife. In
the letter was a full account of an operation
on her sister , and Hedwlg's name was used
association with a younger man named
Fritz Tlircbsen , whom Hedwlg had met at
Coblenz In November , 1S90 , some five months
before her mnrrlago.
On reading that letter Mr Scott went him
self to Glasgow with his son's vvlfo and
placed her In the homo of her married uls
ter , the wlfu of a Presbyterian minister. He
did not leave Scotland until he tecured
from his daughter-in-law u confession Unit
Thressen had betrayed her while he was at
Coblenz. Mr. Scott admits having secured
this confession and says that It was made by
the girl of her own free will. The family
then , leaving Hedwlg with her sister , re
turned to this country and young Scott went
Deadwood to study law' , After the proper
term of residence lie Petitioned for divorce ,
alleging that he had IWn deceit fully led to
marry the girl. bHtrrfttg himself the father

that the confession Wub extorted from her
by Mr. Scott under threats of withdrawal

The street railway cnso that had been the
attraction In 'Judge Ambrose's court for
two days was disposed uf yesterday
by an amicable settlement b.tween
the attorneys , the defendants con
senting to an Injunction as prayed
for by the plaintiff and agreeing to
pay $210 9i as damages resulting from the
tie-up of the cars last Friday afternoon , the
plaintiff agreeing on the other hand to Kit-
Is fy the judgment In fa\or of Matthew W.
Clalr , iccently alllrmcd by the supreme
court ,
The arguments In the case were continued
during an evening session of the court Tues
day night , and the heat that had manifested
Itself all through the trial was even more ap
parent than ever. U was the Intention at
the hour of adjournment to renew the ar
guments yesterday , but at the opening
hour of court the attorneys were In consulta
tion and by 10 o'clock the form of the de
cree had been agreed upon.
When It was submitted to Judge Am
brose , ho remarked that It was In accord
ance with what his decision would have
been had the case been left to him , but that
he would have gone n step farther He 'aid
tl at an attempt to have a judgment set
aside after It had been alllrmed by the su
preme court , on the ground of peijurcd evi
dence , could not be upheld unless the judg
ment was entirely based on such perjured
testimony There was other testimony In
this case than that which was alleged to
have- been pnrjurcd , and the judgment could
not hutc been annulled So far as the levy
was concerned , the sheriff had gone farthei
than he had a right to do In the matter
It was not the thing to btop the slreet cars
nnd Interfere with the public travel , when
the company was a public servant and n
solvent corporation The company had re
ceived all ind more than II was entitled teat
at the handb of the city , which had supinely
gotten down on Its knees and turned over
to It all the streets of the city free of chaige
The public had rights In the mutter , and
the decree would be signed granting the In
junction as prayed for by the plaintiff , re
straining the defendants from proceeding
further with their levy , as It was Illegal and
the cars of the company were not subject
to such seizure. It was further decreed
that the defendants were liable for the dam
ages resulting from the btoppage , and execu
tion was Issued against them In the sum of
$210 95.
Mr. Howe , counsel for the company , en
tered after the matter had been settled , and
wanted to know what he was going to do
with thebpeech with which ho had loaded
up In answer to the bevere criticisms that
were made the preceding evening by Mr.
Gurley. but the Judge only smiled and ad
journed court. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I.lttlct Icgalltlc * .
Judge Ambrose left last evening for
Chicago , where he will visit his hi other
during the few days intervening before the
opening of the May term of court.
An additional document filed with the
clerk of the court ycster'ay rectos that
