Every aay since the conclusion of the trial the Vorwaerts has contained a tirade ‘of de- ation directed against the public vrosecutor for having suggested that Dierl Id himself to the real culprits and really acted for a sum of money to stand d serve whatever sentence the court ht impose upon him instead of the al offend The contention of Dierl’s s been that he was “‘absolutely . oted himself legitimately | to literature and not to shame.” The Berlin Post, however, printed in its issue of Jast evening, with the appearance of exactness, a statement which it dedi- cates to Vorwaerts, asserting that obscure actor. His se—63 years—prevented him from con- | tinuing in that prolession, and in order to | obtain a liv ood he avowed himselfa ade a connection with the | aerts in the capacity of a clerk ata ¢ of 112 marks ($25) a month. A short time later, upon the strength of his contention that he was merely the brea favor instead of rece: compensation to which his services en- titled him, he was induced as a considera- tion for the advancement of his stipend to sign a paper declaring himself to be wholly responsible for the danzerous and seditious articles which had appeared or might thereaiter appear in the paper. For thus accepting responsibility for the acts of others, he received the migerable iucrease of twelve marks a month in his salary. In the opinion of those who be- lieve the foregoing statement to be true, this renders Dierl entirely unworthy of sympathy, and places him in the position | of being morally as well as legally bound | to serve the sentence he voluntanly con- tracted 1o undergo. The feeling of soreness and indignation over the recent alarmist statements pro- mulgated upon the alleged authority of the 8t. Petersbu Official Messenger has not oniy not a been aggra- vated by the semi-o! xplanation of the matter, from which it would seem that the blame lies in the Russian Official Tele- graph Agency. The Vossische Zeitung, in an article championing the cause of opera- tors on the Bourse, who were hit hard through transactions based upon these statements, in plain language charges ssian officials with complicity in the matter and accuses certain officials in St. Petersburg ‘having had the intention of putting down quotations on the Berlin Bourse. It is more likely, however, that the matter was the result of an oversight, but the act was culpable nevertheless. This is the second occasion since Prince Lobanoff-Rostoveky was appointed Rus- sian Minister of Foreign Affairs that state- ments of the gravest import sent out from 8t. Petersburg have had to be disavowed upon official authority, the other occasion being the recent Bulgarian sensation, which turned out to be a canard. Soin- tense is the feeling of indignation here over these incidents that it will be a long time before they will be forgotten, and they will tend to increase the distrust of Wolff’s agency, which has lately issued various retractions and explanations, as well as to cast suspicion upon the “‘semi- official” system of promulgating imvor- tant statements generally. During the session of the colonial coun- cil, which was held about the middle of the week, Herr Kayser announced that the mines which the Southwest Africa Com- pany bad opened to the northward of Otativi contained copper in such abund- ance as has seldom been found anywhere else in the world. The new building erected for the occu- pancy of the Prussian Landtag is exter- nally completed, and fitting of the interior is proceeding rapidly. A large part of the fittings and furniture of the old building were found to be entirely unsuited to the new building and have been sold at auc- tion. ‘The sale attracted large crowds of buyers ana curiosity seekers, many of the articles bringing good prices. The Post devotes four columns to the re- ports of various United States Consuls, conveving the suggestion that American breeders export horses into Germany for the purpose of slaughtering them., The Post contends that live animzals could not be exported profitably, and declares that if the flesh of slaughtered animals should be the Dierl was formerly bated but Crockers’ do engraving for New York sometimes.

Achievements on Trial Trips Mislead- ing as to Their Real Value in Time of War. , D. C., Nov. 3.—Ad- miral Ramsey has collected some exceed- ingly interesting figures on ordina cruising performances of the new war- ps, which will be sent to Congress by Secretary Herbert in his annual report, and which may lead to some discussion when appropriations are asked for new vessels of high speed. During the past year the admiral had required all com- manding officers to report to him the rate of speed and the coal consumed on every voyage made, and the results demonstrate that the wonderful bursts of speed which are productive of large premiums when skilled jockeying is employed by builders on trial trips to establish great records, are altogether meaningless as indicating the value of such vessels for every-day naval uses, The new figures do not in any manner WASHINGTON | detract from the capabilities of the racing cruisers to develop nigh rates of speed for short distances when emergencies occur that warrant the risk of forcing and strain- | ing the machinery and hulls, as, for in- stance, when § stake or an enem avoided. But th 000 a quarter knot is at ] e intercepted or atistics collected show such ships, even in official publications, are entirely misleading. The cruiser New York, for instance, is rated in all official re!mrts as a 21-knot ship. From August, 1805, to Qctober, 1895, he rate of 15 knots per hour, which was from Kiel to Gravesend, a distance of 685 knots, at the close of the canal celebration, burning 137 tons of coal. + From Gravesend to New York she made 14 knots, burning 882 tons for 3809 knots, but her average for the year was about 10 | knots. The Columbia, rated officially at 2.8 knots, from New York to South- ampton, made 15.5 knots and_burned 132 tons of coalfor 3315 kncts. While retur ing under orders to make a_record, she ac- complished 18 knots, burning 1553 tons of coal for 3112 knots. The Minneapolis is generally and no doubt correctly believed to be the fastest warship afloat, if pushed. Sheis rated at 23.073 knots, having averaged that for four | hours between Cape Ann and Cape Por- poise. Her best speed the past year was nots, made on a run from Norfolk to New York. ———— JOHN BRENNAN SCORED. Bishcp Bonacum Resents the Introduction of Religious Issues into Ne- braska Politics. LINCOLN, NEegr., Nov. 3.—The follow- ing is sent out by Bishop Bonacum to the priests of this diocese under date of No- vember 23 Rev. and Dear Sir: 1 am informed that a man named John Brennan, who is editor of a so-called Catholic newspaper at Sioux City, Tows, under the name of Northwestern Catho- 1 ndeavoring to sow religious discord in ate and diocese by issuing papers or cir- culars of an inflammatory character to our clergy and laity, urging them to political ac- tion in the impending election. In the paper above referred to the said Brennan also calum- niates some of our most illustrious citizens. As there is no religious question invoived in the State campaign in Nebraska this year, and as the best policy to pursue toward those mis- guided men known as the American Protective Association is 1o ignore them entirely, I must regard the appeal of this man Brennan as not only inopportune, but also impertinent. While not desiring to infringe in the least on your individual right of suffrage, it is my wish (and in this wish I but re-echo the decrees, of the third Plenary Council of Baltimore, No. 83) that you abstain absolutely from all political agitation, being mindful that you are a debtor ‘to the Greeks and to the barbarians, to the wise and to the unwise ” {Romans i:14), Iam, Rev. and dear sirs, your obedient serv- ant in the Lord, G THoMAS BoNACUM, Bishop of Lincoln. ¢ CONSPIRATORS ARRESTED. Salvadoran Officers Thrown Into Prison for Plotting the Murder of the President. SAN BALVADOR, SaLvaDor, Nov. 3. The police to-day arrested a number of officers 1n the barracks before daylight. They are charged with being implicated in the plot to murder President Gutierrez, Vice-President Alfaro and a number of prominent Liberals. It is stated the plot was organized by clericals, and that their plan was to seize the government, throw over all existing alliances and declare anti-Guatemalan laws. The recent stealing of arms was Fart of this plot, and a lot of incendiary iterature was traced to a religious print- ing office. Rumors are current that Conservatives all over Central America have formed a league against the Liberals. g General Schofield’s Future Home, CHICAGO, IrL., Nov. 3.—General and Mrs. Schofield will leave Keokuk, Towa, Monday night for this city, which prob- ably will be their future home, No ar- rangements have been made for a perma- nent residence, but General and Mrs, Schofield will live vemporarily at the Au- ditorium Annex. General Schofield went to West Point forty-six years ago fro Illinois, and always has considered this State his home. 7 | TRAINS STILL MOVING Threatened Strike on the Great Northern May Be Averted. A. R. U. MEN CAUTIOUS. Employes of the Montana Central Declare Against a Walk- Out. TIE-UP ON AN EASTERN ROAD. Switchmen on the Western New York and Pennsylvania Leave Their Posts. ST. PAUL, Mixx., Nov. 3.—The strike situation on the Great Northern seems to have resolved itself into a fight among about twenty discharged men for reinstate- ment, which they find impossible except through drawing the whole A. R. U. into the trouble. Rumors that a strike would be inaugurated on the Montana Central, a leading branch of the Great Northern sys- tem, at noon proved untrue, as all trains on the whole system were running up to 10 o’clock to-night. Sylvester Keliher, secretary of the A, R. U., who has been prominent in the at- tempt to get an interview with President Hill, has been in communication with President Debs for the past two days, but the latter has refused so far to advise a strike. The fact is that the members on the Great Northern have it in their own power to say whether or not they shall strike. Keliher said this afternoon that they would certainly strike, but the em- vloyes have made no move in the direc- tion of a strike, and the circular of General Manager Warren last night that any man leaving the employ of the company would not again be employed has had the effect of making the men think twice before striking. e CHALLENGING A STRIKE. Employment of Detectives by Railroads Censured by A. R. U. Men. ST. LOUSS, Mo., Nov. 3.—The announce- ment this morning in the newspapers thav a detective agency had enlisted over 1000 men to protect railroad property in the event of a strike caused great excitement among railroad men here. One official oi the A. R. U. said: “‘This action of the railroads will tend to bring the very thing they fear—a general strike. So far asthe local branch of the union is concerned there isno strike con- templated. Railroad strike history shows that the roads have always set agitation in motion first and virtually challenged the men to strike, This is the present condi- | that the figures customarily attached to | tion, and as railroad employes are human the present challenge may be accepted.” Secretary Scanlan of the local American Railway Union said: “The talk of a strike on the Wabash is bosh. While there are causes for dissatis- faction here and there, there is no general discontent that would precipitate trouble. There are no present differences that can- not be smoothed over. Watch the tluctua- tions in railroad securities and you will probably discover why this standing army is called out.” Railroad officials profess to be ignorant of any call for private guards and belittle the talk of a strike. Notwithstanding these denials there was continued activity around the Thiel Detective Agency to-day. - ADMITTED TO MEMBERSHIP. Commercial Operators Ailowed to Join the american Railway Union. TERRE HAUTE, I~p., Nov. 3.—Presi- dent Debs of the American Railway Union will issue a circular to all local unions to-morrow announeing that the directors have decided to admit commer- cial as wel!l as railroad telegraph operators into the order. As early as practicable telegraphers will be organized in unions composed wholly of members engaged in that occupation. Since the telegraphers lost their big strike thirteen years ago they have been afraid to joiu a labor or- ganization, it is said, and have been ask- ing to be admitted to the American Rail- way Union. In regard to his plans for the future President Debs says that after the expira- tion of his sentence in the Woodstock jail and the meeting in Chicago November 22 he will come to this city, where he will be engaged with his official affairs for thirty days. Then he will make a tour of the country, beginning in Texas. He says the union has gained a strong foothold in the New England States, where it is supposed to have little chance. e DECLINE T0 STRIKE. Montana Central Employes Olaim They Have no Grievance. BUTTE, Moxt., Nov. 3.—The employes of tue Montana Central Railway, part of the Great Northern system, have circu- lated ‘a document on each branch to the effect that they have no grievance and no representative on the mediation commit- tee, which is alleged to have gelivered an ultimatum to President Hill. "It is stated that the Montana Central men will not go out if a strike is ordered on the main line of the Great Northern. aengl ol SWITCHMEN WALK OUT. Strike on the Western New York and Pennsylvania Kailroad. OIL CITY, Pa., Nov. 3.—The switchmen of the Western New York and Pennsyl- vania Railroad went out on a strike lasg night owing to the failure of the men to have restored a cut recently made. The road at this place is practically blocked. At a meeting of the trainmen here to- night it was decided to send delegates to Buffalo to confer with trainmen there, and if they cannot reach some satisfactory agreement with the officials of the road, it is understood that they will go out at Bui- falo, Olean and Rochester, and tie up the whole system .of 900 miles. HONORS T0 GARIBALDI. Thousands Witness the Unveiling of the 4 Monwment to His Memory. MILAN, Iravy, Nov.8.—The Garibaldi monument in this city was inaugurated to- day with imposing popular ceremonies. King Humbert sent a bronze crown to be placed on the moument. Neither the Gov- ernment nor the army was represented at the ceremonies. Several members of the varty of the extreme left in the Chamber of Deputies were present. There was a great gathering of the masses, included in the attendance being delegates from 450 political societies and 100 lodges of Free Masons. Six thousand-socialists; carrying banners, were also present. Signor Felice Cavoliti, the leader of the radical intransigents in the Chamber, at- tempted to make a speech eulogizing Gari- baldi, but was stopped by the invasion of the reserved enclosure by the crowd, which was driven forward by the pressure of those in the rear who were anxious to hear the words of the well-known poet and deputy. The proceedings were orderly throughout. o WARD IN HONDURAS. The Memphis Forger Granted Concessions by the Government. TEGUCIGALPA, Hoxpurss, Nov. 3.— Ward, the Memphis forger, is now here and on intimate terms with most of the E_ron!incm officials, who have confirmed is title to Kenneth’s cotton-planting and mill concessions. It has been “‘bled” for $50.000, while he brought credits for $85,000. It is said he has been promised never to be extradited. S Lord Mayor of Liverpool. LONDON, Exe., Nov. 3.—The Earl of Derby has accepted the Lord Mayorship of Liverpool. WHO D. C. BEITLER WAS. The Golden Gate Park Suicidex Railroad Employe. D. C. Beitler, who committed suicide in Golden Gate Park Saturday afternoon by shooting himself with a pistol three times, was identified at the Morgue vesterday by E. L. Warner, the baggage clerk at the Oakland mole. Beitler’s full name was David Clifford Beitler. He had been employed by the Southern Pacific as night clerk at the Per- alta-street yard, but on last Friday he re- signed intending, as he said, to go East to-da He had relatives in Illinois and others in Modesto. During the st; Beitler was time- keeper at'the Oakland mole for the rail- road company’s deputies, and the revolver with which he shot himself was one of those issued by the Southern Pacific to its guards at that time. When Night Clerk Foster of the Peralta-street yard was killed by an engine backing over him Beitler was put in his place. He lived near the Center-street station in Oakland. BUCKLEYLAMES TO MEET, Those in the General Commit- tee to Be Counted To-Night. s claimed that he A Spirited Meeting at the dental Club—Lanigan's Protest. Occi- Buckley has summoned his lambs to meet to-night in Turn Verein Hall, just behind the yard of his house on Stockton street which he calls the Occidental Club. The invitation sent out, which is not signed by any one, is as follows: A meeting of members of the general com- mittee who have signed the protest againsta dissolution of that committee will be held at California or Turn Yerein Hall on Bush street, between Powell and Stockton, on Monday evening, November 4, 1895, at 8 o’clock. You are earnestly requested to attend, as matters of vital importance to our party will be discussed. By order COMMITTEE OF ARRANGEMENTS. This step was decided upon at a meeting participated in by Buckley, Colonel O’Byrne, Sam Newman, Bob Boyd, P. F. Dundon, Thomas Glynn and the rank and file, X There was a great exchange of wisdom. Buckley said that a careful canvass showed that they had the committee by a majority of 150. Colonel O’Byrne said, “Why not make the majority 200, Buck, while you are at it?” Dundon prudently called attention to the fact that just previous to the last meeting they had it by 100 majority, and lost the vote by 30. Dundon made a little talk. He said that the outward appearances would indicate that they had not gained as much since the last meeting as some of their sanguine friends claimed, and that before inviting another encounter they had better call a meeting of their own and see what their own looked like when they had it together where they could see it. Another mem- ber said that that was all right, but the last meeting had been such a failure that this time enough dummies and stragglers had to be hauled to the hall even if Tom Ashworth used the Street Department wagons for no other purpose, for they must have dummies to answer for com- mitteemen when the names were called. Then there was scme discussion as to how many responses should be made when the roll was called. Some thought 200, some 250 and others 275. Buckley de- cided that 225 was about the proper num- ber. Ned Lanigan, up at the Baldwin Hotel last night, was talking about Buck- ley’s latest ‘attempt to call the committee together. “Why,” said he, ‘“‘we can beat them any day and any time and they know This effort of Buckley's friends to dig up his remains calls for rmnfit action on the part of the Board of Health. It is unlawful to dig up a dead body with- out a permit. Buck is dead and these men who are trying to exhume him ought to be arrested.” MAIMED AND SIGHTLESS Horrible Accident at FPerine’s Quarry on the DMission Road. A horrible accident occurred yesterday morning at Perine’s quarry on the Mission road, about a mile and a hbalf from the Seven-mile House. George M. Drumm and William Hanlan, familiarly known as “Scotty,” were preparing a blast about half-past 8 yesterday morning when the accident happened. They had “sprung” the hole three times, that is exploding small charges of powder. to widen the hole at the bottom, and Drumm was placing the sticks of dyna- mite in the hole. He cut the sticks of dynamite and his wife cut pieces of paper on which the sticks were laid. Hanlan was tamping them lightly in pesition and Drumm had put in the seventeenth stick when there was a terrific explosion, and both men were thrown violemtly to the ground and partly covered with the fall- ing debris. Sirs. Drimm was kneeling behind her husband and beyond receiving a slight shock from the explosion escaped unhurt. _Hanlan was picked up in a herrible con- dition. His face was blackened and punc- tured with powder and dirt and his eyes were sightless. His left arm was crushed and mangled into a shapeless mass from above the elbow, and his sheulderblade was dislocated. There were cuts and bruises on his scalp and body. Drumm’s injuries were not so serious. There were cuts and abrasions on his face, scalp and legs, and one of his eyes was seriously burned with powdes, but with care he will recover its sight. Dr. Weil, assisted by Dr, Badilla, ampu- tated Hanlan’s left arm. He expressed a doubt of Hanlan’s recovery, who, maimed and blind, prayed for death. He lives at 129 Sixth street and isunmarried. Drumm and his wife live at the quarry. “Idou’t know how it happened,” said Drumm yesterday afternoon. = “There was a sudden ringing noise in my ears, and I lost consciousness fora time.” I must have saved my wife from injury by being in front of her. 1t is possible thatsome pow- der used in ‘springing’ had been in the bole and sr_noufda ng, which bad ignited the dynamite and caused the egplosion,” LOOKING 7O MEXICO, Fighters May Pitch Their Ring Across the Line. DAN STUARTS PROJECT. Leaves for Juarez to Arrange for Protection for the Pugilists. DISGUSTED WITH FITZSIMMONS. Brady Says Further Attempts to Ar- range a Meeting Are Useless. LITTLE ROCK, Agk., Nov, 3.—Dan Stuart left for Mexico this morning in company with Wheelock, secretary of the defunct Florida Athletic Club. He had a long talk with Julian before he leit rela- tive to the proposition to pull off a fight at Juarez, across from El Paso, on Novem- ber 19. To the represeniative of The United Press Stuart said “The situation is thi; I have had con- fidential agentsin Mexico for two weeks, and their reports are uniformly favorable; but I have been fooled so oiten by the re- ports of others that I am determined to take no chances this time. 1am going to see the Governor of the Mexican State of Chihuahua, in which Juarez is situated. He has said to my agents that the fight can come off there without interference. I am going to get his consent in black and white. If I get it the fight will be a go. If I don’t get it I shall throw up the whole thing. 1 have been on a dead card for nearly a vear now, and I don’t propose to blow in $25,000 more on another one.” Stuart also said that the annual bull fights in Juarez began on the 15th of No- vember and lasted till the 20th. If the Governor proved amiable, the prize-fight would take place in the bullring on the 19th instant. Julian said he had signed a preliminary agreement with Stuart for the proposed match. He also said that besides putting up the §10,000 forfeit for the Juarez fight, Stuart had agreed to make good personally the $2500 which the Florida club bad guaranteed to pay Fitzsimmons in case the fight could not be pulled off at Pallas or Hot Springs because of legal interfer- ence. It is pretty well undersiood here that if Brady tinally accepts Stuart’s prop- osition, which is considered improbable, Stuart will have to tind $10,000 for Fitzsim- mons to put up as a side bet. There is now no concealment of the fact that Julian cannot raise the money. Stuart’s persistence in endeavoring to pull off the fight has caused considerable curiosity as to his motives. Itisnotorious that after the fiasco of last week not a corporal’s guard of sports could be in- duced to visit Mexico even if they were assured of a fight. Therefore, the gate money would amount to nothing. The secret of Stuart’s tenacity is said to be in the fact that he has secured from the eidoloscope people a guarantee of $50,000 for pictures of the fight. That being the case, he can well afford to put up a §20,000 purse, and, as this $10,000 forieit will not be made good until he secures the written consent of the Mexican Government, he stands to lose nothing by the operation. It all dependson the Mexican executive. If he gnarantees immunity Corbett can scarcely refuse to fight, while Fitzsimmons, havir ‘hing to lose either in money or repu . may be counted on to jump at the chu.ce. The Fitzsimmons party, after showing here to-morrow night, will do one-night stands in Texas while awaiting the out- come of Stuart’s Mexican mission. e BARRED AT NEW ORLEANS. The Olympic Club Does Not Want the Big Fight. NEW ORLEANS, La., Nov. 3.—There have been reports current the past few days that there is a possibility of the Cor- bett-Fitzsimmons fight being arranged to take place at the Olympic Ciub in this city. President Dickson of the Olympic Club says that such a thing would not be tolerated by the management. He says the club is very well satisfied with the suc- cess its althletic exhibitions are meeting with and does not care to antagonize the press and public by trying to handle any of the big events that the Texas and Ar- kansas people failed to bring off. S BRADY 1S DISGUSTED. Corbett and Himself Are Through With the Cornishman. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Noyv. 3.—A dis- patch from Little Rock this morning stated that Stuart was sending out a batch of dispatches, but would not talk. This was shown to Brady, who said: “We will positively pay no more atten- tion to Fitzsimmons. We are through with him forever. It is useless to make Corbett any offers in connection with him.” e ET TU, CONNECTICUT. Waterbury Sportsmen Offer a Purse and Guarantee Protection. WATERBURY, Coxx., Nov. 3—T. H. Hayes and Robert McGrath of this oity offer a purse of $30,000 for a meeting be- tween Corbett and Fitzsimmons. They stand ready to post the amount with any representative New York man on the sign- ing of an agreement to fight within ten miles of this place. It is said that the offer has been submitted to the backers of the two pugilists and protection is guar- anteed. STANFORD SURPRISED. Defeat of the Freshmen Football Team Received With Bowed Heads. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Car., Nov. 3.—There was general mourning at Stan- ford when the report that their freshmen baa been beaten- by a score of 44 to 0 was verified last evening. When the news was first received no one would credit it, for while defeat had been expected, the feel- ing obtained that the score would not be overwhelming. Camp said before the game that Stanford would be badly beaten, as the team was extremely light and had no team work. - This result gives a very dingy tinge to the future outlook for the Varsity’s chances for Thanksgiving. Each player feels that his efforts will have to be redoubled to pre- vent a second defeat this season. It issafe to say that Berkeley’s unexpectedly strong showing in the freshman game will cause Stanford to work harder for a victory in the intercollegiate match. At the same time, it must be acknowledged, that at present Berkeley is further advanced with her game than are Stanford players. Thus far, Stanford has shown little or none of that interference which was so prominent in Berkeley’s game on Saturday. On account of Gorton’s injured knee, which prevented his playing center with the freshmen, he may be unable to try for varsity this year. On Monday efforts will be made to get out new candidates for that osition. Owing to the injury of oneof tanford’s star halibacks, which is likely to prevent his further work on the grid- iron this season, Captain Cochran is busily hunting for new men to train for halfs. Dole, °98, who promised to be a phenom- enal man this year, has been forced to give up football for the year. Ha received severe injuries some three weeks ago that prevent any great exertion on his part, and while he is anxious to get out, now that he is recovering, it is not likely that he will be allowed to run the risk. Lon e Cricket at Loomis a Draw. LOOMIS, CaL., Nov. 3.—The last match of the cricket festival at the California Cricket Club grounds between Placer County and Alameda ended in a draw, partly owing to high scores and partiy to rain. Alameda continuing their innings, raised their score to 199, Ward, Jr., made 43, Scott 29, Ward, Sr., 28. Placer then went in with little more than an hour to play and lost six wickets for 81 runs. Time was then called as the visiters had to catch atrain and a most enjoyable game wasso ended. The Placer County team have gone through the season undefeated, their record being five matches won and one un- finished. e Handicap Race at San Jose. 8AN JOSE, CAL., Nov. 3.—The five-mile handicap race of the High School Wheel- men at Agricultural Park yesterday after- noon was won by Bruce Cottle, who had a handicap of 1:05, in 15:23, Albert Lantz second, with Joe Bellolithird. The entries and handicaps were as followe: Roy Black, scratch; Joe Belloli, 10 seconds; ‘W. Black, 15; R. Walter, 45; H. Kooser, 1 migu(e; Bruce Cottle, 1:05; A.

Be From 11 o’clock-Saturday night until 6 P. M. yesterday Milk Inspector Dockery was on the warpath. That s, he was out after the law-breakers, and he succeeded in rounding up some six or eight. In the early hours of the morning he visited Ingleside, where eight wagon-loads of milk were subjected to the Babcock test. Not one fell below the 3 per cent standard. At the Five-mile House on the Mission road some twenty tests were made, and an equal number on the San Bruno road. Every sample came well within the limit fixed by the Board of Health. Dockery then visited the depot on Fourth and Channel streets, and later made a hurried tour of South San Francisco. At both places the tests showed pure milk. For the first time since the midnight raids were inaugurated not a single wagon had been found with milk below the standard. The inspector thought this a little bit remarkable, and forthwith de- termined to be just as “foxy”’ asthe people he had to deal with. Following out this line, he visited six- teen downtown restaurants yesterday afternoon with the result that eight war- rants will be sworn out to-day. It follows that the restaurant-keepers must either plead guiity to the charge of selling adul- terated milk or shift the blame to the dairymen from whom the milk was pur- chased. In either event Dockery ‘has gained a strong point, for the name of the original seller must aEpear in the evi- dence, which will make him examine their wagons more closely when found on the highway. In the following will be found the names of eight restaurant-keepers caught with adulterated milk in their possession yesterday. Warrants for their arrests will be sworn out this morning: Gudelj & Metrovich, 10 Sacramento street, specific gravity 10.20, cream 6 per cent, butter fat 2 per cent. C.

Supervisor Joseph King was arrested esterday on a warrant sworn out by Milk Inspector Dockery, charging him with vio- lating section 1822, order 1601. On the record at the California-street station it appears that King is 42 years old, isa native of Ireland and a hotel-keeper by occupation. King was released on his own recognizance until this morning, when his case will come up before Judge Low. The only remarkable feature connected with King’s arrest is the fact that the war- rant has been in the hands of the Police Department since October 19. Captain Wittman elaims there was no reason why it should not have been served, and washes his hands e the matter by saying it was placed at the California-street station for service. Sergeant Conboy affirms that they have made desperate " efforts to serve the warrant, sending a man regularly twice & day to his place of business on Kearny street. Conboy further says that every time his special man visited” King's estab- lishment the latter was at the City Hall. King will be better recollected by the San Francisco public on account of his close connection with the Solid Bight. Seizure of Wild Game. Game Warden J. A. Mogan made another seizure of wild game last evening that was being shipped to H. Heckmann and Campo- donico & Maleom, commission merchants, in violation of the game law. He seized four sacks of wild ducks, sent by Sam Lamme of Pennington and by another market hunter named McDermott.” The game came in on the 11 ».

AN END TO THE FEUD. Reconciliation Between Willie K. and Wife to Occur at the Wedding. DESIRE TO FORGET THE PAST. Mutual Overtures for a Settlement of the Disruption Made Through Friends. NEWPORT. R. I., Nov. 3.—Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt bave arranged to close their villa this week. This is much earller than they usually leave, but this premature departure is owing to the ap- proaching nuptials of Miss Consuelo Van- derbilt and the Duke of Marlborough. This decision has been very sudden, as up to a few days ago they had intended to stay until after Thanksgiving. But behind it all, persons in a position to know state that the wedding will have a double significance. It means, virtually, the reconciliation of the entire estrange- ment in the Vanderbilt family. Although Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt have not as yet received an invitation to the wedding breakfast, a fact which bas net- tled them considerably, it is now probable that they will attend after all. Friends on all sides bave brought great pressure to bear on Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, and as an outcome of the overtures which have been already made, this partial reconcilia- tion has taken place, and the breach will be entirely healed at the marriage. Both Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt have entered most heartily into the spirit of the occasion, for, say knowing friends, they desire that in years to come it shall be said of them that they were loyal to their family on the occasion of the dreatest event in its history. As a matter of fact the family likes the marriage, not merely for the prestige which it brings, but as the balm of Gilead, which is to heal all disruption. The cor- respondence between William K. Vander- bilt and Mrs. William K., while not of an open nature, has now been carried on for a considerable time through friends, and both have expressed a desire to forget the past. The direct reconciliation will take place at the wedding breakfast after the nuptials, YOUNG MERRILL DEAD. He Succumbs to the Injuries Caused by a Berkeley Train. Henry Merrill, the Berkeley university student who was injured by falling under the Berkeley local train ou Saturday even- ing, died at 2:30 o’clock yesterday after- noon from the injuries he received. Wie was a son of John F. Merrill of the firm §f Holbrook, Merrill & Stetson. Yot -4 Merrill had been attending a concert givgn by the Berkeley Orchestral Society ehd ran to catch the 10 o’clock train for San Francisco in order not to be too late in reaching his home at 1732 Washington street. He carried his violin under his arm and in swinging upon the platform the instrument case caught in the hand- rail and threw' the young man to the ground so that he was struck by the trucks and wheels of the cars. He was picked up in an unconscious conditon and the physicians soon saw that he was seriously injured. In fact, the in- juries were of such” a character as to pre- vent his being removed to his father’s home in this City. He remained under the influence of opiates until he died. Young Merrill was a little over 20 years of age. He was a member of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fratérnity and was in the class of "98. NEW TO-DAY.
