THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JUNE 28, 1896. MELQUIZO WILL BE PROMOTED, The Human Butcher Gets His Reward From Weyler. SLEW THE INOFFENSIVE. Shot Dr. Delgado and Ordered the Massacre at Camp Florida. RECORD OF LUST FOR BLOOD. Expelled New York Correspondents File Claims for Damages and Sail for Home. HAVANA, Cusa, June 27.— Advices have been received here to the effect that Brigadier-General Melquizo will positively be promoted to major-general. The Farnesio squadron, while operating near Capellanis, province of Havana, met a large rebel force under Cullazo. A fierce engagement followed, in which the rebels lost twenty-one killed and many wounded. The troops lost seven wounded. General Melquizo is at present in com- mand of the troops in the southern part of the province of Pinar del Rio. He has gained most unenviable notoriety through his killing of inoffensive pacificos—men, women and children. It was by his orders that Dr. Delgado was shot, and he was also responsible for the Camp Florida massacre. Many tales have been told of his lust and, the charge that he had butchered hundreds of per- sons in cold blood has been proved beyond a shadow of a dount. He is to be honored by promotion on the recommen- dation of Captain-General Weyler. Mr. Gay, the New York newspaper cor- respondent who was expelled from the island by, order of the captain-general, sailed for New York to-day on the steamer Orizaba. Mr. Dawley, the artist of Har- per's Weekly, who was confined in Morro Castle for some time on the charge of hav. ing communicated with the rebels, leit on the same steamer. He has filed a claim at the American consulate of $100,000 against the Spanish Government. Mr. Gay has filed a claim of $25,000. Lo g gk THE CAPTURED FILIBUSTERS. Drought Back to Key West, but No Charge Made Against Them. KEY WEST, Fri., June 27.—The reve- nue cutter Winona on Thursday aftérnoon sighted the steamer City of Richmond coming out of Biscayne Bay. The Rich- mond had been into Miami and landed several hundred crates of ireight, and was on her way to Key West. The cutter sig- naled the steamer to heave to. Lieuten- ant Hay was then sent on board, and ex- amined her papers, and found that she had no license. Her passenger list was defective, and he also found 449 cases of ammunition on board. Hay returned to the cutter and reported the fact to Captain Gooding, who ordered Lieutenant Hay and a prize crew from the cutter to seize the Richmond and proceed to Key West. Yesterday the Richmond started on her way to Key West, and when off Alligator Light a small steamer was sighted. Changing the course of the Richmonud, they came within hailing distance of the vessel, which proved to be the Three Friends. A small boat put off from the Three Friends and started toward the Richmond, when some one on the latter vessel gave warning and the boat put back. Lieutenant Hay signaled the Rich- mond to be stopped and went on board the Three Friends, After examining her pavers heinformed Captain Broward he was under arrest. The cutter'coming up later, Lieztenant Myrick was sent on board the Three Friends and the three vessels started for Key West. On board the Three Friends was Dr. Castillo, surgeon of the Jeanette expedition and prominently identified with the Cuban cause, being secretary of the Cuban Junta. At a hearing to-day before the United States Commissioner there was no charge made against either vessel. S Ty WILL INVESTIGATE. The Treasury Department ta Look Into the Matter. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 27.—The Treasury Department to-day was officially advised that ihe steamers Three Friends and City of Richmond were detained at Key West, Fla., on the ground that they were about to engage in a filibustering expedition to Cuba. The vessels were overhauled at sea by the revenue cutter Winona last evening, On the City of Richmond were 400 cases of arms and am- munition and on the Three Friends a party of forty men, among whom was Secretary Castillo of the Cuban Junta in this coun- try. The United States District Altorney will investigate the matter and decide whether they should be prosecuted for violating the neutrality laws. LYMNAN TRUMBULL’S FUNERAL.

CHICAGO, Izr., June 27.—An assembly of notable men, principally Judges, law- yers and statesmen, eathered at the late residence of Lyman Trumbull this after- noon to pay the last. tribute of respect to the dead jurist and statesman. All the Circuit and Superior Court Judges ad- journed their courts at noon as a token of respect and attended the obsequies. The Chicago Bar Asssociation sent a large delegation.

Thomas, who was his pas- tor, delivered a tender and poetic eu- logy, calling the Senator the greatest of Chicago’s citizens, whose name was writ- ten high on the roll of honor in his life- time lfiv deeds as well as words—the ideal American statesman, whose sole purpose was 1o serye the people. The Episcopal cnurch liturgy was read by Rev. W. W. Wilson of St. Mark’s Crurch, and the burial was at Oakwood. United States Senator Palmer, General Lewis B. Parsons, General George W.

CHICAGO, Irn., June 27. — The thir- teenth of a series of hold-ups which have been taking place here at regular intervals for the past few weeks was accomplished this evening within a half-block of the Harrison-street police station and the police are still looking for the men who so openly defy them. The same tactics were used a8 in the other twelve cases. Two men at 10 o’clock to-night entered the shoestore of A. Ruppert, at 166 Harri- son street, and with two revolvers each compelled the cashier to ewnpty his cash drawer and hand out its contents. Fortu- nately the day’s receipts were in the vault, and only $20 ‘was secured by the robbers. As soon as the two men got possession of their plunder they ran out and down an alley, and their whereabouts is at present The description of the men s with that of the men who have been systematically robbing stores for the past few weeks.

NEWS OF LOS ANGELES Decorator Adams Sues the City Clerk to Obtain Fiesta Finery. Heavy Crop of Oranges Throughout the County—Mrs. Forbes Keeps Her Children. LOS ANGELES, CaALn., June 27.—The fiesta decorations used on the City Hall trouble. Sam Adams, the decorator, claims that a part of the lumber and bunt- ing is his private property. When Clerk | Charles Luckenbach put the aforemen- | tioned property away under lock and key to-day Adams got out a search warrant charging Luckenbach, Beena and John Roe with secreting his property. The City Clerk laughs at the -affair, and says that Adams is disappointed because he failed to get the contract for decorating the City Hall for the Fourth of July. He claims that the city owned all the lumber and that he offered tolet Adams take off such bunting that he had tacked onto the lumber, but Adams demanded all. He told Adams he would not get it | and the decorator swore that he would. Luckenbach bad Mr. Bena lock up what he believed to be the city property. Adams says that he is’ not chagrined at the loss of a contract. He merely wants gligoproperty, which he values at $100 or e g THEY TOILED 1N VAIN. Tunneling Bank Eobbers Misjudged the ZLocation of the Vault. LOS ANGELES, Cax., June 27.—The at- tempted robbery of the First National Bank is still the topic of ‘convereation. Numerous residents on Commercial street state that they were watehing the move- ments of the detectjves night after night, so0 it is no wonder that the attempted rob- bery was made public property. The true reason why the robbers gave up the job | was that they believed the vault extended to the floor of the cellar, instead of rest- ing on the arch. When they discovered their mistake they quit. 1t is stated upon good authority that J. Stevens, the man now in custody on sus- picion of being implicated in the at- tempted robbery, has been confined to his bed for the past two months from the ef- fects of an operation. It is believed he will be released when the evidenceis heard. - HEAVY CROP OF ORANGES. Dealers in Fruit Pleased With the Pros- pects for the Coming Season. LOS ANGELES, Can, June 27.—The prospects for the coming year’s orange crop are exceedingly bright, and several leading commission merchants and fruit- men have said that it is likely to be larger than usual. In many parts of the citrus belt the trees are blooming more pro- fusely than has been the casein twelve years. There nas been mcere dropping of fruit than usual at this time of year; on the contrary the percentage which re- mains on the trees is greater. The drop- ping is always large when thecrop 13 a big one. Mediterranean sweets and navels are the greatest sufferers. This rather un- usual condition has been caused by the extremes of the weather which have occurred during the last six months. s L WILL KEEP HER BABES, Mrs. Forbes is Awarded the Custody of Her Uffspring. LOS ANGELES, CaL., June 27.—Judge Clark to-day awarded Mrs, Forbes the custody of her two children. The woman’s mother, Mrs. Scott, and the latter's brother had attempted to secure the guardianship of the children, claiming that Mrs. Forbes was an unsuitable person to have charge of them. The mother said that she had repeatedly seen Mrs. Forbes sitting in the fap of J. Qn\gle‘{, hugginfi and kissing him. The latter admitted al this, but denied that anything improver bad occurred. ¥ Judge Clarke decided that these listle in- discretions were not of such a nature as to prove that the morals of the children would be injured by their being in the custody of the mother. A San Bernardino’s Missing Man. SAN BERNARDINO, CAL., June 27.—A systematic search will be made to-morrow for the body of G. A. Wingfield, who ‘is supposed to have committed suicide near Highlands or Harlem Springs in the early part of this week.

EDGREN SAVES THE DAY Prevents a Crushing Defeat by Capturing Each of-the Weight-Puts. TWO COAST RECORDS BROKEN Herbert Greeniand Bests Krelling of San Francisco in a Wrest- ling Bout. PORTLAND, Or., June 27. — By a score of 57 points to 44, the Multnomah Athletic Club this afternoon defeated the Olympics of San Francisco, after the most exciting field contests that have ever been seen on an athletic field in the Northwest. The Olympics were under some slight disad- vantages. Phil Wand, one of their best men, was unable to take partin the con- test, his shoulder having been sprained in arough and tamble wrestling bout with Krelling. The Multnomah team failed to win the events which had been conceded to the California visitors. Edgren, the Berkeley man, proved to be a wonder to the local athletes in the throws, Flannagan, the Multnomah man, going down before him after a very stubborn contest. Captain Len Gill's men fell down in the sprints and gained but four victories out of the thirteen events, with second place in most of the others. It was in the weight-putting and shot-tossing that they prevented being taken into camp. It was an igeal day for cracking records, A slight shower last evening had laid the dust and the track was in first-class con- { dition. It was hot enough to draw out the athletes’ best efforts. Multomah field presented a pretty sight. | The field was a riot of colors, and over 2000 people passed through the gates. The wildest enthusiasm prevailed. Charles Dillon, an ex-Stanford man, led the ex- Stanford and California contingent in the chorus ot *‘rooters’ for the visitors, Two coast records were broken. They were the high jump and the mile run, the championship for which is now held in | the North. The Multnomah phenomenon, little Bert Kerrigan, broke his own record made two weeks ago, by raising the run- ning high jump to 6 feet 2 inches. The Pacific Northwest Association records in the mile, the high jump, broad jump and the weights—hammer anda shot—were smashed. The contest was memorable for the remarkable perform- ances of the day, for even the local meh surprised themselves. William E. T&l- lant, the Astorian, broke the coast record for a mile in the hottest race for the dis- tance ever seen on Multnomah field. The time was reduced from 4:40 to 4:81 2-5. Brown of the Olympics was beaten out by seven yards in a magnificent spurt on the stretch, R. W. Edgren, the Olympic champion, took the 16-pound hammer throw, the 16- pound sbotput and the 56-pound weight tossing. In this last event his opponent, Flannagan, stopped at 25 feet 214 inches, and Edgren put the weight 26 feet 614 inches, fairly outdoing himself. In the 16-pound hammer throw Flan- nagan was beaten by a foul and the event was given to Edgren. Flannagan threw the hammer 129 feet 5}4 inches, but it was not allowed because his toe was pushed over the mark. Edgren's distance was 127 feet 934 inches. Collins did not com- pete. Edgren won the shotput on his sixth and last throw, beating Flannagan, who had it at 36 feet 5 inches. Edgren in his last trial put the shot 36 feet 9 inches. Patterson of the Olympics withdrew from the 220-yard hurdle event, and Mor- gan took it in :263-5. There was no sec- ond. Patterson skipped the second hurdle and this threw him out of the race. Brunton of California withdrew from the pole event, leaving the contest to Ker- rigan and Watkins. Kerrigan won at 9 feet 4 inches. In the 830-yard run, Tallant of the Muitnomahs and Dave Brown of the Olympics ran together to the last lap. It was a very pretty race. At the end of the stretch Tallant spurted and beat by three yards in 2:0414. In the opening event, the running high jump, Kerrigan _and Patterson tied at 6 geet 2 inches. Patterson refused to jump off the tie and left the field, and the event was given to Kerrigan. The summary follows: Bunnlnq‘hlgh i’ump—}!ert Kerrigan, M. A. C., won; W. C. Patierson, 0. A.

Charles Krelling, the champion light- weight wrestler of the Olympic Club, was defeated to-night in a three-round wrest- ling bout, best two in three, at the Mult- nomah Club by Herbert Greeniana, the Northwest ehampion, who put his Califor- nia rival's shoulders on the mat in the first and third bouts. The first fall was won in 16:20 2-5, and third in 2 minutes flat. Krelling downed Greenland in the second bout in 1:04, Krelling was the heavier man by five pounds or more. Greenland is now cham- pion of the coast. g s 3 Baker Knocks Out Butler. BROOKLYN, N.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., June 27.— Five players of the Cleveland ball team were found guilty of breach of the peace in the City Court this afternoon for their action in yesterday’s game with Louisville. Cap- tain Tebeau was fined $100, McKean and McAleer $75 each and Burkett $50. Dr. Thomas H. Stuckey, president of the Louisville club, indignant over the rowdyism of yesterday, this afternoon swore out warrants against McKean, Mc- Aleer, Burkett, Childs, O’Connor, Tebeau, McGarr, Blake and Cuppy, who took part in vesterday’s game, charging them with breach of the peace, with the intention of having them arrested after the game. At 3 o'clock the Clevelands appeared at the ball park. It was raining, and as it soon began to pour down in torrents the game wascalled off and the police presented warrants for the Cleveland players. ‘With their uniforms on the players were hustled into a bus and taken to the City Court, where Judge R. H. Thompson was in waiting. Judge Aaron Kohn, chairman of the Board of Public Works, conducted the prosecution and the Cleveland play- ers were represented by Attorney Allen Kinney. The testimony of the prosecution showed that McAleer, Tebeau, McKean and Burkett had heaped insults on Um- pire Weidman and that McAleer had struck him. Weidman testified that no one hit him, but that he was insnlted and knocked about, but hedid not know by whom. The Cleveland players denied using vio- lence or offering insults, but Judge Thomp- son held that the testimony showed that Tebeau, McAleer, McKean and Burkett were guilty as charged in the warrants and he assessed the fines mentioned, the other players being dismissed without trial el'ii]epl as to 0’Connor, who was found not uilty. £ The attorney for the defense took an ap- gul to the Circuit Court, and after some elay the Cleveland quartet gave bonds for their appearance when required. DS T i BASEBALL AT SANTA CRUZ. Electrics Defeat the Cruiser Philadel- phia’s Sphere-Tossers. SANTA CRUZ, Can., June 27. — All Santa Cruz went to the ball game this afternoon at Vue de I’Eau Park, for the bluejackets from the war ships have be- come such favorites with Santa Cruzans and the summer visitors that to have not seen the Philadelphia’s baseball team at the national game would have been to miss one of the biggest events of the pres- ent season, The Philadelphia's boys, however, were rather disappointing at baseball, scoring only 3 runs to 12 by the Electri¢s, yet they played an interesting game, and the splendid mausic by the Philadelphia’s band made up for their shortage of rans. The Electrics, while proud of their victory, would have graciously submitted to defeat in deference to the desire of the big audi- ence of ladies to applaud the' bluejackets. Roberts for the Electrics pitched a fine game, only four safe hits being made off him. Babin, for the Philadelphias, groved bis skillfulness in the pifcher’s ox, too, though he was not so successful as Roberts. The Philadelphias had some excellent ball players in their team, but some of their crack players were detained at dutyaboard ship. Their center fielder, White, did excellent work, and their in- field players were above the average. — T ENGLISH YACHT RACES. Britannia and Niagara Wonm in Their Respective Classes.

Rich Louie Thanhauser Sued for Refusing to Wed Marie Fately. Fifty Thousand Dollars Demanded as a Balm for Lacerated Affec. tions. PORTLAND, Or., June 27.—A sensa- tional lawsuit, with sensational testi- mony, will be heard in tbe Circuit Court on Monday. Marie Fat‘ly (nee Waters) is the complainant, and Louie Than- hauser, a prominent merchant, is the de- fendant. Mrs. Fately wants $50,000 to heal her lacerated heart. For a numker of years, the woman al- leges, she and Thanhauser lived together as man and wife, though there was no marriage ceremony. She asserts that Thanhauser induced her to wed one Thomas Fately of Sacramento, and after- ward persuaded her to procure a divorce from her husband. After having been di- vorced she returned to Portiana and again began living with Thanhauser. This state of affairs continued un- t1l the merchant became enamoured of the wife of a Ban_ Francisco com- mercial traveler, and Marie was turned out upon the cold world. Thanhauser has numerous depositions from men in Sacramento who claim that Mrs. Fately's reputation there was _unen- viable. Her attorney, George W. P. Joseph, asserts that they are not at all anxious on this score, gs he has eviaence to prove that the.men Trom whom these de%ositiona were procured are unworthy of belief. \ The parties to this suit, which will be contested inch by inch, are extensively known here, and Thanhauser hasa large circle of acquaintances in San Francisco, ol LA S LUCK OF A FRESNOITE.

SAD ACCIDENT AT SANTA CRUL, WONDER- WORKER! Jackson Crooks of Oakland |y pemegio-Trestment Thit Is Receives a Dangerous Wound. STRUCK BY A BULLET. He Lets a Revolver Fall to the * Floor and the Weapon Is Discharged. HAS SLIGHT CHANCE FOR LIFE. The Pleasures of a Sza Beach Hotel Ball Marred by a Singular Misfortun-. SANTA CRUZ, CAL, June 27.—Jackson Crooks of Oakland, who, with his wife and child, has been visiting here for a week, was accidentally shot to-night and may die. He was changing his street dress for ballroom garb in his apartments. at the Sea Beach Hotel, when a pistol fell from one of his pockets and was discharged. The bullet struck him on the left side, just under the heart, passed upward around a rib and came out in the center of the left side of the back, at a pointabove the line of entrance. Within a few moments after the acci- dent the rumor that Crooks had attempted suicide spread over the town. Drs. Bailey and Morgan were called and dressed the wound, giving Mrs. Crooks considerable hope for his recovery. As soon as Crooks was made comfortable and allowed to talk he soon convinced those about him that the suicide theory was ill-founded. Crooks said that he had just eone to his room from the dining-table and begun to change his dress. When he removed a pair of trousers from a chair the pistol fell from a pocket, discharging the ball into his body. James Doyle, barkeeper of the Sea Beach, was the first to hear the shot, and ran in the direction of the sound. Crooks was found prostrate on the floor, He said to Doyle: “I’ve had an accident, Jimmy, and I guess I'm gone.” Mrs. Crooks was summoned and mes- sengers immediately dispatched for physi- cians. There was intense excitement about the hotel. -Tne guests were gather- ing for the dance and everybody was startled by the sad news, for Mr. Crooks and his wife are so well known and kindly considered here, that they have friends in almost every household. Mrs. Crooks is the eldest daughter of County Treasurer ‘William H. Bias. Mr, Bias is known fa- miliarly as ““Uncle Billy”’ und he and his family are loved by the whole town. ‘When Mr. Crooks married Flora Bias and removed to Oakland, Santa Cruz lost one of its most charming and loyable girls, and any sorrow that befalls Flora Bias- Crooks is the sorrow of the community. Jackson ‘Crooks is well known in San, Francisco and Oakland as one of the heirs of the Crooks estate, of which he is the administrator and the atfairs of which he is just closing ug. Matthew Crooks, his father, was a California pioneer who amassed a fortune of $2,000,000, which fell to his widow and eight children when he died twelve years ago. Mrs. Susan Crooks, the widow, died about a year ago in Ban Francisco and since then Jackson has been engaged in settling the estate, He and Mrs. Crooks and their baby came to Santa Cruz to attend the carnival and visit Mrs. Crooks' parents and friends and were stopping at the Sea Beach Hotel, where they intended to remain for a part of the season. Crooks was on the street this afternoon and among his associates, whom he left just before going to dinner, he was in his usual cheerful mood. If the wound does not prove fatal it will cause him to be under careful surgical treatment for some time, though he says that he is not much hurt, and believes he was more frightened than injured when the shot struck him. Late to-night the surgeons counld give but little hope of his recovery. PACIFIC GROVE'S SCHOOL. Need of a More General Observance of the Sabbath Urged by Christian Men and Women. PACIFIC GROVE, CaL,, June 27.—The morning session of the Woman’s Ckristian Temperance Union School of Methoas was devoted to the department of Sabbath observance. Rev. M. C. Briggs, D.D., of Ban Jose, Rev. N. R. Johnston of Oakland, Rev. John Kimball of San Francisco, Rev. Mr. Kyle of Salinas and Rev. Mr. Peck were present from the Sabbath Asso- ciation. Mre. Sturtevant Peet delivered the open- ing address, emphasizing the point that Sabbath desecration led to criminality. Mrs. Christine Armstrong presented an impre-sive paper, entitled ‘“The Sabbath ‘Was Made for Man.” Rev. Mr. Kyle dis- cussed the question from the standpoint of physical considerations alone, claiming that more and better work could be ex- pectea from man and beast when oneday’s rest was given in each week, and that man would derive incalculable benefit, morally and physically, from the weekly day of worship. Rev. N. R. Johnston spoke on the duty of the church to the Sabbath. The cburch was the teacher of the people, and to it be- longed the respousibility of teaching in the name of the Lord. The duty of rulers and legislators was not alone to do the will of the people, but the higher duty— the will of God. . Dr. Briggs held that the whole Sabbath question was embodied in the law of love as taught by the Savior, declaring that he who broke the fourth commandment broke the whole decalogue. He demanded of Christian people more sacrifices for the sanctity of the Sabbath; more self-denial and less self-indulgence; more responsibility for their own prac- tices and example. Mrs. Mary Frank Brown narrated some striking instances of mistaken efforts which had_resulted in valuable lessons in Sabbath observance. Mrs, Eyster, Mrs, Gove and Mrs. Greene engaged in a gen- eral discussion of how far Sunday travel- ing was justified. A reception at the El Carmelo was ten- dered the visitors to-night. —_—— Puget Sound Fruit Blighted.

Thousands Cured—Prematursly Old Men Made Vigorous and Powerful—How It Was Dis- covered. IT IS HARMLESS. Positive Cures Have Been Made ¢nd Years Allowed for Relaps:s, So It Is Now an Assured Fact—Isterested Parties Should Investigate, There is no gainsayinz the fact that I am always in search of the novel, the new, and for this very reason I went up to the big white building on Market strcet to talk about the wonder-worker of which so much has been said lately. The scientific gentleman with whom [ conyersed tried to carry me into thin air and dropped me on a star, but as 1 proposed only to glean facts and tangibility, whenever he dis- coursed on the possibilities I politely listened but brought him back to the point, to the point of fact. lndeefi, he bristled with facts and figures when it wag stuck to him. Said the doctor: “We have been us‘ng the Hudyan remedio-treatment in the Hudson Medical Institute for five years, and we are now prepared to say that it is the greatest wonder-worker ifl the world, Our statistics prove that ninety- eignt out of every one hundred cases that we have undertaken were entirely cured in a given time, and the two per cent lost were cases that it was impossible for any one to do anything with. It is a certain thing that the great Hudyan remedio-treatment is the first discovery of the age. It is a boon to man. Young men when suffering from failing manhood, baa dreams, melan- cholia and nervous troubles brought on by dissipation, abuse, etc., can be speedily cured if they bat follow the advice that goes with the remedio-treatment. “You want to see some testimonials,” said the doctor to me. Of course I did, and I minutely inspected four huge volumes of testimonials, and I ean truth. fully say that these testimonials con- vinced me that the Hudyan remedio- treatment is a great boon to msan. 1 asked the doctor if Hudyan was procurable in any place outside of this institution and he replied, “‘that the great Hudyan' could not be procured in any part of the world except at the Hudson Medical Institute.” So any one who wished information con- cerning the great Hudyan must either write or call to the Hudson Medical In stitnta for As it is well known the Hudson Medical Institute occupies the white building at the junction of Stockton, Market and Ellis streets, The private entrance for this in- stitution is No, 5 Stockton street. All curable disorders are treated at the Hudson Medical Institute, although it 1s a fact that the specific remedio-treatment, Hudyan, is used more often than any other treatment, because the doctors of the Hudson Medical Institute are especially successful in diseases of men. I asked the doctor what was the greatest trouble with which he had to combat in these cases, and he told me that many men had a false pride, a false modesty, and waited and waited until it was almost too late before they made application for the Hudyan treatment. Said the doctor: ‘‘Itis a fact that the Hudson Medical Institute is nota charitable institution, nevertheless hun- dreds and hundreds have been cured at no eost to themselves. In many cases mothers pay for their son’s treatment unknown to the son.” Any one wishing further in- formation concerning the great remedio- treatment, Hudyan, should call or write to the doctors of the Hudson Medical Insti- tute, Stockton, Market and Ellis streets, and receive free their i'l'njiifi.x_ui.
