New York, Dec. 12. The Sunday
death list In New York and vicinity
was greatly Increased by causes that
ran the camut from suicide to mur
der. The most serious disaster occurred
last night In Brooklyn, and was caused
by a fierce fire In a Hat house at No.
134 Prospect Place. Six bodies have
been recovered and six are missing. The
fire stalled In thebasementof the build
ing. Three alarms were Instantly
turned In, but the llnmea had gained
such headway that very little could be
done to save the property. The house
was occupied by five families, and a
boys' club had rooms In the basement.
It Is supposed that In some .way the
boys accidentally Bet the place on fire.
The recovered dead are Mr. and Mrs.
S. It. Itobertson, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph
Noblctt, Thomas Wlnne and an un
identified woman, supposed to be the
mother-in-law of Noblett. The bodies
of Mr. and Mrs. Noblett wore burned
to a crisp. The man's body was hang
ing out of the window, where he had
evidently gone to save himself. Winn-!,
who was 20 years of age, ran Into the
building to attempt a rescue. In try
ing to Jump across tho air shaft he fell,
and was found dead at the bottom.
A spectncular tragedy occurred on
tho speedway. Thousands of the peo
ple who had gathered there to watch
the speeding gazed eagerly at what
they thought was a race. It was at
first, but It ended In a runaway, and
James McDonald, a prominent Tam
many man and one of the best horse
men In the cltv, was carried to the
Manhattan hospital, where he died six
hours later. McDonald had taken a
fast horse to the speedway for 1
warming and .had been challenged by
a friend to a test of speed. The horses
went along at a furtqus pace, with the
thousands of spectators applauding the
brush. Then, with a mighty burst of
speed, McDonald's horse took the bit
and with a defiant toss of his head
shot to the front. Two blocks ahead
the speedway was Impassable to thi
flyers, and McDonald realizing this
stood up In his rig and, dropping one
rein, gave the other a mighty Jerk. He
threw his horse, killing It, but he him
self was pitched high Into the air, and
some twenty feet forward, falling on
the hard road. Ills skull was fractured.
VIncenzo GargusI, an Italian banker
and prominent In the Italian colony,
was shot and killed In front of his
home In Broome street last night, the
bullet piercing his heart. Lawrence
Pyorc, a drug clerk employed In a drug
store nearby, was arrested, and Is
charged with the murder.
"William Walters, 28,years old, bought
ten cents' worth of carbolic acid, and
after kissing his wife and child good
by said he would go and call on his
mother. He stopped at his mother's
home but a few moments, and when
leaving drank the contents of the bot
tle. He died en route to the hospital.
Catherine Werner, a factory girl, 25
years old, drank carbolic acid and died
shortly after her removal to a hos
pital. Thomas McKeever. 31 years old, a
freight agent nt Ttoselle, N. J., was
found dead In bed In an apartment
In "Soubrette Row." The cause as
signed by the coroner was heart dis
ease.
Elizabeth Clinton, 04 years old. was
burned to death In her home on Bed
ford street. Her clothes became Ig
nited by the bursting of a kerosene
lamp.
Hilda Hesse. 11 years old, took car
bolic acid at her home In Hoboken, and
died shortly afterward. A quarrel with
her father and stepmother Is said to
have mndo her despondent.
A man believed to be Peter Thomp
son, of Brooklyn, fell or Jumped off
dock In Broohlyn. He was taken out
of the water alive, but died at a hos
pital from shock.
David Walsh, 22 years old, of Ho
boken, while walking along the tracks
In the Erie railroad yard at Hoboken
yesterday got his foot caught In a
switch und was killed by a train of
coal cars bac'-lng upon the track where

WaHhliiKton, Dec. 12. Qenernl Callxto
auicla, the distinguished Cuban war
rior and leader, und the head of the
commission elected by the Cuban as
Heinbly to visit this country, died here
shortly after 10 o'clock yesterday morn
ing at the Hotel Halelch, where the
commission has its headquarters. The
sudden change from the warm climate
of Cuba, with the hardships he had
thore endured, to the wintry weather ot
New York and Washington Is respon
sible for the pneumonia which resulted
in his death. lie contracted a ullglit
cold in New York, which did not as
sume an alarming stage until the early
part of last week. On Tuesday night
General Garcia, In company with the
other members of the commission, at
tended dinner given In his honor by
Genernl Miles, and It was a result of
the exposuie that night which culmin
ated In his death.
Duilng the twelve hours or more pre
ceding dissolution General Garcia was
unconscious most of the time. At In
tervals he recognized one or more of
those about him. In his dying mo
ments, as all through his busy and
active life, his thoughts were for his
lieloved country and Its people, and
among his last words were Irrational
mutteiings In which he gave orders to
his son, who Is on his staff, for th'!
battle which he supposed was to oc
cur tomorrow and In which ho under
stood there were only 400 Spaniards to
combat. Just before he died he em
braced his son. Itev. Father Magee,
of St. Patrick's church, was called In
during the day, and was with General
Garcia until the end, administering the
last rites of the Catholic church.
The remains were immediately pre
pared for burial and were placed on
a bier In the room In which he died, A
GENERAL. CALIXTO GARCIA,
large tubun Hag served as a covering,
and the head rested on one of smaller
dimensions. Tho face and bust were
left exposed to public view. The fea
tures had a remarkably lifelike ap
pearance and gae no Indication of the
suffering which the deceased had borne.
By direction of Major General Miles a
detachment of soldiers from Battery
E, Sixth urtillery, at the barracks here.
under command of Lieutenant Cox,
was detailed as a body guard for tha
lemalns.
General Garcia left a large family,
only one of whom, Justo, a captain on
his stnfr, was with him when he died.
Ills widow nnd Merci-des, a daughter,
17 years of age, are at Thumasvllle, Ga.,
where the girl Is dying of consumption;
Mario, a son, 19 years of ago, 13 also
with the mother at Thomasvllle, and
Colonel Carloas Garcia, another son, la
In Cuba, A daughter, Leonora, who
married an American, Is now living In
Paris. General Garcla's mother Is still
alive, and resides In Havana,
General Garcia, whose name will be
ever linked with those of other patriots
who have fought against unequal odds
for the freedom of his country, has
had a most active and varied life, much
of which has been spent In fighting for
the cause of Cuban liberty, which he
had the satisfaction of seeing ac
complished so short a time before his
death. He was a man of culture and
refinement, of splendid education, and
came from a distinguished family of
Jlquanl, of Santiago de Cuba province.
He was born In Coquln on Oct. 14, 1833.
and was educated In Havana and
Spain. In 18C4 he was married to Isabel
Velez.
General Garcia was the original con
spirator In the uprising of the Cubans
against Spain In 1868, and In that war,
under Gomez, he attained the rank of
a brigadier general. In October of 18CS
he captured the towns of Jnlquanl nnd
Bnlre and recruited many hundreds of
patriots! He had command of the
eastern departments during that revo
lution after 1873, nnd won many no
table victories, including those at Me
lones and Aurez. While the revolution
was In a critical state In the other
provinces and Its outcome was un
certain he maintained It with vigor In
the territory under his command.
Jn 1ST5. while reconnolterlng with hU
escort, he was surrounded by 2,000
Spaniards. Pieferrlng death to cap
ture and subsequent execution at the
hands of his enemy, he attempted sui
cide by placing his revolver under his
Chin and firing. The bullet came out
between his eyebrows. For months he
lay between life and death, but was
saved flnnlly by Spanish surgeons who
possibly had owed their own Uvea to
his mercy. The Spaniards, believing
ho was about to die, gave him a pardon.
For Tils participation In the revo
tlonary movement General Garcia wus
sent to Spain, where for four years he
was confined In castles and fortresses,
remaining there until the peace of 55an
Jon. He then returned to the United
States and, together ..with Jose Marti,
attempted another revolution. He land
ed In Cuba with a few followers, but
the country was tired of war and want
ed to try the homo rula offered by
Bpaln. He capitulated to the Spanish
forces In order to eav his few "re
maining followers, and was again ban

deavored to get an expedition to the
Island of Cuba in the steamer Haw

results of his trip. He considers that
Colonel Hood, of the Second Immune
reKiment. who Is In command of Hol

district.
It appears that when the Spaniards
left they lllled the cisterns with man

they could, lcnvlnf? the dead bodies In
the streets, nnd burned all the furnltur"
they wpre unable to remove. In fnct,
they devastated the town.

apparently has followed General
Woods' siiRRestlnns as to methods o'
selection. He fnund smallpox still very

opportune In this case.
No little Interest attaches to the ap
pointment of a mayor at Mayarl. Gen
eral Wnod found three candidates,
about equally supported, and nil with
civil lists estimating an averase annual
expenditure of nbout $1,000,000. When
he had discovered that the revenue was
sotnethliifr under $100,000 General Wood
asked If there were not some reputabl"
citizen with patriotism enouph to give
his services for nothing. A merchant
promptly responded, and the appoint
ment Is acceptable to everybody ex

Baltimore. Dec. 12. Negotiations have
been completed for the Immediate con
struction of the Baltimore and South

the line will be In operation during the
coming year. This Is the old Drum
Point road, and traverses Anne Arundel
and Calvert counties from Halllmore
to Drum Point Harbor, about SO miles.
The use of this road will greatly lessen
the time from Ilaltlmnre nnd Washing

as to Maryland points on both sides
of the bay.

to use up their vital powers beyond all rea

children : At any rate the candle of life is
too rapidly consumed.
Some people need to have their natural
