CHAPEL - CAR SERVICES Eev.

Now the general manager surely did not refer to this car, Dbecause it is not en old car by any means, neither does it belong to the Southern Pa- cific Railroad Company.

I repeat that we are at no expense to the railrond companies over whose roads we go, except in_the matter of hauling us from place to place. We try to keep the car looking well and i1t excellent order. Only a short time ago we had the coach in the railroad-shops at Sacramento and repaired at an expense of about $300. We have always received the greatest courtesy from Mr. Huntington, as well as from all the railroad officials, and I cannot think that Mr. Krutschnitt con- siders the chapel-car ‘Emmanuei’ as an inconvenience.” Next Thursday the chapel-car will leave this City for Corning. ——————— A WEEK OF PRAYER. Ignatius Church Crowded Last Evening on the Opening of a Retreat. A retreat for the people was begun at St. Tgnatius Church last evening, which will continue during the week. There will be a special sermon by Jesuit father each evening. The retreat is under the auspices of tha Gentlemen’s Sodality of the church. There wiil also be a novena to the Blessed Virgin Mary. The services of last night consisted of a rosary, sermon and benediction of the blessed sacrament. This will be repeated each evern luring the retreat. Rev.

McDonald, 21—11, DIED BEFORE A MIRROR, Dr. George Gerlach Has Ended His Life With a Pistol Bullet. For Two Years He Had Been Suffer- ing From Attacks of Mental Depression. | Lying on the floor in front of his mirror, . a bullet wound in his head and in a dying condition, Dr. George Gerlach, the well- known physician, was found by his wife Dr. Gerlach in the Uniform of the San Francisco Schuetzen Verein. [From a photograph.] That he had attempted to commit suicide was evident, but in spite of the wound in his brain he lived nearly an hour before he died. It was with Dr. Gerlach as it has been with many others—he was despondent, | and in a fit of melancholia he put an end to an existence which had become burdensome. These fits of melancholia had been upon him at intervals for two years, but he seemed to be improving until just before the last attack which im- pelled him to take his life. He was about 47 years old, and had come to this country just before the war. He had been graduated from a German college of pharmacy, and so took up his chosen occupation in Philadelphia, where he re- mained until 1867. In that year he came to this City, and again engaged in the drug business. In the early '70’s, how- ever, he took to medicine, and -in 1874 he was graduated from the old Pacific Medi- | cal College, now the Cooper College. Since then he has been practicing steadily until about two years ago. when he gradually relinquished his business. He had quite an extensive practice at the tume, but the melancholia which settled upon him left him untit to pursue his occupation. Twenty years ago he was married. His wife was a widow, a native of Ireland, and had little in common with the German doctor. There were no children, but the doctor adopted a niece of his wife, and she was the principal tie which bound him to his home. e believed his friends were not welcome at his house and so, al- though he had many personal acquaint- | ances with whom ne liked to visit, but few ever entered his house. Some years ago he took to spending his evenings more convivially than was bearable by his people at home, and this led to dissensions which only lessened when, two years ago, he stopped drink- ing. It was then that these periods of in tense depression would settle upon him. He heard voices always ringing in his ears, sometimes in English, then in French and again in his native German, but all warned him that his friends were leaving him, that he was a burden to every one and his best refuge lay in sui- cide. Thisis a common symptom in suf- ferers from melancholia, and his medical friends did all they could to relieve hiim. He was sent into Mendocino County fora while, but the voices drove him home- ward again; they told him he had been inveigled into the hills that he piight be murdered in secret. Then he was sent to a private hospital for mental diseases, but the voices drove him back again. Two months ago Dr. Gerrach suddenly improved and he became very sanguine of his recovery, for he knew the trouble which affected him. Two weeks ago an attack of sickness set him back again, and A number of ministers assisted and the beaut)lu.l church on wheels was crowded. Mr. Hills called attention to the state- the first inkling any one had of returning mental trouble was when he took his re- volver to his brother, William Gerlach, with the request that it be kept for him. He had often threatened to kill himself, 50 his brother locked up the weapon. Last Wednesday he came to Dr. Lee D. Rodgers’ office—Dr.” Rodgers is one of his oldest friends—and told him he had never expe- rienced such a desire to kill himself or some one else as he had at that time. He was quieted and sent home, where his wife said she would care for him. On Friday last he went to his brother’s room and took his Eistol back again, and yesterday morning he was dead. The gody was left at the house, 1313 Golaen Gate avenue, and the inquest will be held there. It isa plain case; therecan be but one verdict, and the Morgue officials do not want to create any more trouble than is necessary. The deceased was a member of various medical societies, but he took especial pride in his membership in the San Fran- cisco Schuetzen Verein, of which he was once “king.”” THE HANDBALL COURTS. Close and Exciting Games That Brought the Spectators to Their Feot Played Yesterday. A number of exciting games were played in the handball courts yesterday. One that aroused the greatest interest was played at the Occidental court between Judge Cooney and C. J. McGlynn and R. O’Connor_and Captain P. Dunne. The lay was fast from the start and the two formcr managed to_win by a close finish. J. F. Bonnet and Ed Malone; were de- feated by James C. Nealon and . Lenihan in a game the conclusion of which brought the spectators to their feet. The same teams will again compete Wednesday night, ana the Olympic Club champions, Hampton and Johns, will play Purcell and Ken A photographer was present ves- and took pictures of theteamsas they appeared for their rubs. % The attraction at the San Francisco court was a game between W.

Previous to that Law- less and Pennoyer defeated Willlams and Hutchinson. | Two closely contested games were played | at the Union court. Terry McManus, the heavy-weight, and W. Kelly defeated J.

The Irisa Nationalists in the United States say they will liberate Ireland by means ‘‘consistent with the usages of mod- | ern civilization.” That is the object of the new movement which is pressing the disciples of the phys- ical force policy into the ranks of the Irish National Alliance. If councils of this body are formed as rapidly in other cities of the United States as in San Francisco it will not be long before the Alliance will beable to throw at least a hundred thousand united Irishmen into the breach to contest ngland’s difficulty is Ireland’s oppor- tunity,” said an enthusiastic speaker at a meeting of the Nationalists in the Kni of the Red Branch Hall on Mason and O’Farrell streets yesterday afternoon. The meeting was held under the au- spices of the Robert Emmet Council of the Irish National Alliance. It was attended by two hundred Nationalists, and the greatest nterest was manifesied in the new movement. Delegates were present from surrounding towns. The old-time Fenian spirit, which created so much ex- citement in this country back in the six- ties, seemed to break out afresh. There were present men who had risked their lives that their country might be independent; men who had seen penal servitude in Eng. lish dungeons. Some-had gone with the Fenian invasion into Canadian territory and others had rescued Irish political | prisoners from Australian prisons. It was | at once an assembly of fearless, aggressive and enthusiastic Irish Nationalists bent on | doing all possible damage to England. “In order to thoroughly orgunize the | whole State,”” said_D. Cronin, it may be well to understand that the native born sons of Irish parents in California are as much interested in the cause of Ireland’s freedom as the Irish themselve: *“In case we do not accomp! our ob- jectin our time,” said Dr. O’Neill, “we are determined to move onward and trans- mit the holy heritage of Irish liberty to our posterity. It took 4000 years from the fall of man to the time of his redemption, and even if it takes the zame time to free Ireiand we will continue to fight bopefully and cheerfully.” “When I was in Ireland a few years ago,’’ said P. A. Dolan, *'I observed the ef- fects of thorough organization during the Land League movement, and it impressed me with the idea that the Irish could or- ganize in this country and make their power felt in fighting for Ireland’s liberty. Jnder the banner of the Irish National Alliance all Irishmen, regardiess of poli- ties or religion, may unite to battie for the independence and dignity of their nation.” Speeches in the same strain were made by J. J. Conniffe, President Thomas Crow- ley and others, and the following were ap- pointed to district the City and organize | talked freely of his career. AN APPEAL TO HERBERT, Charles Radford’s Plea for Help to the Secretary of the Navy. KILLED A LEADING BANKER. The Accused Wrote to General War- field That the Killing Was in Self-Defense. Charles Radford, an ex-Confederate officer and a prominent citizen” of the South, killed the leading banker of Cali, Colombo, recently, and is in jail at that place. His chance of escaping the death penalty is thought to be very slender. although he asserts that he killed the banker in seif-defense. News of the tra- gedy published in yesterday’s CALL now brings out many interesting facts in Mr. Radford’s career, which lead to the belief that the imprisoned American and Mr. Herbert, the Secretary of the United States Navy, are close friends. On March 21 last, General R. H. War- field, coming by train from Los Angeles, met an ex-Confederate officer in the smok- ing compartment of the car. This officer, who gave his name as Charles Radford, He seemed to be under the influence of liguor, and in fact, before he reached San Francisco he said to General Warfield: “General, T am a stranger in San Francisco, and as I have been imbibing too much, I want to go to | your hotel, where you can take care of | me.”’ General Warficld said, “All right, come along; we will ook out for you.” At the ferry where the runners met the train General Warfield noticed that Rad- ford declined to allow the hotel runner to alise. Nothing was i but Warfield was a little surprised when Radford requested the valise to be put in the hotel safe. Radford registered as “*Charles Radford, Virginia.” He seemed to have plenty of money and spent it freely. Inone of his excursions about the City sharpers fleeced him of $150. Then General Warfield called him into the office and said: ‘‘Here, Rud- ford, this won’tdo. I am_ not a banker now, but a hotel-keeper. You must take this money out of the safe and deposit it in a bank.” I will go with you and see it property deposited.” Accordingly Warfield and Radford went to the k and the money, which amounted to a large sum, but not’so much as $40.000, as stated in yesterday’s CaLr, was placed on deposit. Some little time had elapsed, when Rad- | ford said he was going to Central America | w the money out of the bank | and would d and take it with him. General Wartielc K to ta it in yo! steamer Radford replied in the affirmative, and Warlield then said, “Radford,I am not your guardian nor a relative of vours, but 1 tell you that you must not do anything of the kind. Youcome with me to the bank and buy London exchange with that money. You take the first drafts and I will hold the second, or duplicates.” Radford assented to this, bought the drafts and sailed away. Subsequently he gave a few thousand dollars to a trustea agent to buy cattle and horses for his place in Colombo. General Warfield heard nothing more of Radford until early in last month, when he received a letter wherein Radford stated that he had killed the German banker, the leading citizen of Cali, and that the killing was in self-defense. He said in the letter that he didn’t know that the letter would reach Warfield, but that a man had sacredly promised to see it mailed. He spoke of his imprisonment in jail and the belief that he would be put to ‘death. He wrote also that his property had been con- fiscated and his London drafts of $1000 ach taken away from him. He implored neral Warfield and the president of the bank here in San Francisco to secure the money if possible for his wife and chil- dren, and to telegraph at once to his friend, Secretary Herbert at Washington, of his arrest and peril. The banker at once cabled to London to stop payment of the drafts. A Jong mes- sage, reciting all the facts contained in the letter, was telegraphed to Secretary Her- bert. General Warfield also telegraphed to a United States naval officer in a Cen- tral American port of Radford’s peril, and sked him to look after the he agent who had bought horses and cattle was reached by telegraph at Panama and advised to sell the stock for Radford’s benetit. General Warfield is confident that Rad- ford gave his true name, and the fact that Se-~retary of the Navy Herbert was re- Are you going e aboard the 1 of this, | cuested to be informed that his old friend | Radford was in trouble strengthens the | belief that the true name was given.

Elder J. B. Shepherd of the Mormon Church discoursed last night on “Charac- ship Hall, Pythian Castle. He said: To an observing mind which contemplates the existing multiplicity of churches, with their diversity of creeds, no two of which agree upon the order and doctrines of the Gospel, a most inconsistent condition is presented; es- | pecially so when the Holy Scriptures teach us | emphatically that there is but *‘one faith, one | Lord and one baptism.” 2 Unpopularity is one of the prominent feat- ures of the Church of God. Christ said, “If ye were of the world the world woula love his | own, but because ye are not of the world but I | have chosen you ontof the world, therefore the | world hateth you.” Too many to-day, in their | gesire to become popular, sacrifice principle. The same causes always produce the same effect; therefore we ought not to be surprised to find the people of God always opposed by the majority. There are several infallible rules by which we may distinguish tne Church of Christ. Its | organization is one. The Apostle Paul savs that God has set in His Church apostles, proph- | ets, teachers, etc. There were also certain gifts | and blessings i\mmis‘od to all that believed in | the true gosvel, so that we may reasonably ex- { peet to find all'these things in the Church of | Christ. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- | day Saints claims to preach the Gospel as it was taught anciently, to have the same organ ation and to testify to the world that they en- | joy the same gift | BARON RAPHAEL. WRATH. iTo Be Stabbed by His Friend Is ; More Than He Can 1 Stand. Browning Surrenders Himself, and Is Charged With Assault to Murder. | Baron Lionel othschild | Raphael of New Zealand, atias Clarence | Clayton of Surrey, Eungland, had suf- | ficiently recovered from the flesh wound under his right shoulder blade to be dis- charged from the Receiving Hospital yes- terday morning. During the night he had been brooding over the murderous attack upon him on up his mind to prosecute him whether he apologized or not. | *Just look at my coat,” he said, as he | pointed to a long cut in the front of it. “If I bad got that in me it might bave killed me, don’t you know. He made two cuts at me and T got the one in the back. “I asked him to put up his hands and gave him one on the chin that knocked him down. When my back was turned he was cowardly enough to cut me with his knife. 1f he had struck me with his fists I would have forgiven him, but to stab me, considering our friendship, is more than 1 can stand, don’t you know.""
