THE SAN FRANC 10 = CALL IONDAY, AUGUST 1 18 BUJA'S FLIGHT AVAILED NOT Defaulting Cashier of Sca- tena & Co. Brought From Santa Barbara. Gvvovoees ‘His Arrest Was Due to His Picture That Appeared in Last Tuesday’s "'Call,” He Positively Refuses to Make a Statement, but Admitted to the Police He Is a Defaulter. *cecc eow voe FOCC Nicholas Buja, the defaulting book- keeper and confidential man of the firm of L. Scatena & Co., commission merchants, 104 Washington street, is now benind the | bars in the City Prison with two charges of felony embezzlement booked against him. His bonds are fixed at $5000 on each charge. Detective Ed Gibson, who left for Santa Barbara Thursday evening to bring Buja back to the City, arrived with his prisoner by the train yesterday morning. “The police have to thank THE CaLy,” said Detective Gibson, “for Buja’s arrest. Frank Dunn, proprietor of the Arlington Hotel, Santa Barbara, is a subscriber to Tug CAry, and Wednesday night when Tuesday’s CALL reached the hotel, about 9 o’clock, Dunn saw the picture of Buja in it and he at once noticed the resemblance it bore to a guest who had arrived about an hour belore on the Lompoc stage and registered as ‘F. Smith, San Jose.’ “The picture was & dead ringer for Buja, and Dunn, who is a deputy Sheriff, sent word to Sheriff Hicks that the de- faulting San Francisco bookkeeper was a guest at his botel. Hicks drove to the hotel and told Dunn that he had received a dispatch from Chief Lees giving a de- scription _of Buja. He handed the dis- patch to Dunn and after reading it Dunn showed Hicks the picture in THE CALL and Hicks placed Buja under arrest. “The papers have already published CHARLES A. KRAFT of the Bay City Wheelmen, Who Lowered who has bad nothing to do with Buja’s downfall. He got acquainted with her avout six weeks ago and took her to the theater two or three times. On one occa- sion he took a photograph of her without her knowledge and got a duplicate of a re- duced size made by a photographer, which he placed inside the case of his watch. = Buja’s downfall is attributed to » woman who lived at 611 Bush street. It was she he was in the nabit of frequently driving our to the Cliff House and spending large sums for suppers, breakfasts and other luxuries. One breakifast the pair partook of not long ago cost Buja $65. He was constantly making her presents, among them being a costly sealskin sack and valuable diamond earrings, finger- rings and other jewelry. 2 She 13 a little woman, of engaging man- ners, and Buja became thoroughly infatu- ated with her. Ail his spare time was spent in her company, and he neglected everything for her sake. He became ac- quainted with her about two years ago, shortly after his separation from his wife.

Hamilton Won the Acme Club’s Event | and Wyman Made the Fastest Time. Charles A. Krait of the Bay City Wheel- men demonstrated again yesteraay that heis the world’s greatest road-rider by lowering the American record for twenty miles, and the margin, though narrow, would have been much more had he not been delayed fully half a minute by the crossing of a train in front of him when near the finish. Kraft has held the twenty-mile coast | record ever since racing at that distance was established here up to a month ago, when the honor was wresied from him. Kraft originally established the record at 52 min. 51 1-5 sec. on July 12, 1896, in the annual race of ihe California Associated Cycling Clubs for the Baker & Hamilton trophy. When the race was again run on July 11 of this year he brought it down to 52 min. 11 2-5 sec., but a week later E. A. Bozio of the Imperial Cycling Club went aiter the mark, tandem paced, and covered the course in 50 min. 16 scc. This set Kraft upon Lis mettle and he decided to regain his lost laurels and to put the mark dofwn so low that others would not medale with it again for some time. With tuis in view he set about training st once, while the arrangements for proper pacing were left with R. Lioyd Conkling, manager of the Bay City racing men, with the result that six tandem 1eams were secured to pace him, and the tandem riders also went into training for the ride. Kraft could not have chosen a better day for his nde than yesterday. There was little wind across the bay, and tne overhanging fog made the air cool and agreeable. The road over which the trial was made, in San Leandro triangle, was made in pretty fair shape, and everything was favorable for a fast rige. At 10 o'clock a larce crowd had as- sembled at Fitchburg to see the start, and the word 0 go was given five minutes iater, with Kraft tacked on behina the J. Davidson-J. Mendel tandem, who car- ried him along at arattling elip. Kraft was too anxious, however, and ran on their rear wheel too close, with the resulit that be was thrown from his wheel when not more than 200 yards from tue start, and was severely oruised. He jumped up at once and remounted with the intention of resuming the ride, but the tandem Lad in the meantime turned around and was coming - back, insisting that he should have his wounds dressed and make a fresh start, It was well that he did this, as it was found on examinaiion that his handle-bars were loose and his wheel needed straightening up generally. In less than fifteen minutes, however, the sturdy Teuton was ready lor a second attempt, and this time got under way in good suape, and was cureful not to ride 100 close to the men he was following. Davidson and Mendel took him to the powerhouse this ~ide of San Leandro, where they dropped out and he was turned over to Kroeiz and Kingsley, and went humming along through San Leandro to the first junction, and then was turned over to Vincent ana Ferguson of the California Club. They gave him no rest, but hurried him along to the first turn of the triangle near Haywards. | Kraft made the turn alone, and was piek d up around the corner by Theisen and Birdsall, who carried him to the tank corner near San Lorenzo, and then gave way to Kanzee and Raynaud, the Bay City’s crack midget team, who saw him safely across the railroad track the fi.st time. and were replaced by Boeckman and ‘W. Davidson, who were to carry him into { Timer Wetmore announced: | | | | P. Wetmore, P. H. Bernays, E. E. S ‘hem came Vincent and Ferguson again, Theiseu and Bird<all, Davidson and Men- | iel, Kroetz and Kingsley and Kelly and Tobin. It was on the second round as they came to the raiiroad track that the delay oc- curred.

At the finish the scene was most excit- | A large crowd nad assembled and | there was a great deal of discussion and | figuring as to whether he woula break the | American record, which is also the world’s record, and stands at 48:58, or whether he would lower Bozio’s record, or whether he would break any record at all, There is a slight rise in the road about | | an eienth of a mile from the finish and | he was not in signt at the top of it as “He has now been out just forty-eight minutes and | bas got to cross the line within fifty-eight seconds 1o get under the record.” And aft was not even in sight. Five, ten, ifteen seconds went by and still no signs of him. They were getting anxious. Suddenly a head bobbed up over the | crest of the hill, then another and another. “Here he comes,” velled the crowd. “Twenty seconds more and he won’t make it,” said Mr. Wetmore. “Some of vou tellows yell to him to hit it up.’” And yell they dia with a will. There were three tandems in front of Kraf: as he loomed up over the hill, his pink racing suit distingwishable = from the darker suits of his pacers. With a mighty ftort he pressea forward and passed two of the teams and was up even with the | other as the crowd swept over the tape just two seconds to the good, for he had ridden the twenty miles in 48:56, as against the American record of 48:58 made by I. N. Walleston of Newburyport, Mass., October 4, 1895. “My, but he had a narrow escape,”’ was | all that Mr. Wetmore could say, as he clicked his watch at the finish. Kraft rode into San Leandro apparently but little distressed after his hard nde. | He had a good deal to say about the delay | caused by the raiiroad train, but also said that for once he had got all the pacing he | wanted, and modestly attributed his re- | markabie performance to the important . assistance rendered by his tandem teams. Five watches were held at the start and finish, all having been first compared, and the only variation was in oue, which showed the time a fifth of a <econd slower than thac given out. The officials at the | trial were: Referee, R. M. Welch; starter, | Henry L. Day; timers, J. 8. Sheda, George | od- dard, Fred L. Dav; judges, Herbert D. Clark, Sanford Plummer, H. W. Spaiding. At12:30 in the afternoon the Acme Club Wheeimen held a five-mile road race from San Leandro to Haywards, with twenty entranis.

Buja’s desperate attempt o escape from the Sheriff, by jumping out of the buggy on the way from the hotel to the jail, and bis three attempts to commit suicide while in jail. ““When searched at the jail a diamond ring was found in one of his boots which bore his name. He had slipped it off his finger and into his boot while being driven 10 the jail. “When I told him that if the books had not been found it would have meant financ:al ruin to his employers he said he was glad for their sake that tney had been saved.” After Buja made his theatrical exit from the rear of Scatena & Sons’ warehouse last Monday, when the longshoreman called with the cashbook and ledger, found floaung in the bay near the Pacific- street wharf, he hired a hack and drove to Colma. There he took the train for San Jose, where he purchased a cc mplete out- fit. Next day he took the train for the south and got off at Surf, S8an Bernardino County, where he took the stage for Santa Barbara, a distance of about sixty miles, arriving there, as stated, on Wednesday night. Detective Gibson had no trouble with Buja on the way from Santa Barbara. The only thing that Gibson was afraid of was that he might again attempt Lo com- eye on him all the time. According to Gibson Buja admitted to him that his shortages would not exceed $5000. Every cent of it had been *‘blown in.”” He began his peculations eight or nine months ago. The expert employed by the firm te go through his books has fcund defalcations amounting to over $10,000, going as far back as two years ago. Buju was in close consultation with his mo:her, sister and brother all yesterday afternoon. They have engaged Attorney W. W. Foote to defend him. When asked to make a statement for publication bhe firmly refused to do so, making the stereotyped reply, I tell you 1 have nothing to say.” *‘Why did you not go and see your E:ou}’ar and sister before you fled from the ity 27 He turned away his head and would not say & word, although the question was asked more than once. A query as to the name of the young woman whose photograph' was found in his pocket when searched at Santa Bar- bara, met with the response, “That's nothing to do with the case.” 1t is known that Buja after his sudden marriage about two years ago, followed by a separation alter three days’ honeymoon, went “‘the pace thatkills” rapidly. He was known at the Olympic Club asa “high roller” and a frequent visitor to the ChLff House, accompanied by one or two women companionsin a carriage.

A SLIDING PANEL. How John Evans Was Robbed of 875 in a Room in the Rosedale House. Alma Smith, alias Osborn, was booked at the City Prison yesterday on a charge of grand larceny by Policemen Riley and Wilson. The complaining witness is John Evans, a visitor tothe City. He caled at the Rosedale House, on Ellis street, Saturday night to see Alma, and at her request he hung up his overcoat in a wardrobe in the room. After he got to his hotel he happened to look 1nto his purse, whicn was in his overcoat pocket, and instead of $175 1n gold beine in it there was only $100. He notified Policeman Wilson ana on going to Aima’s room and examining the ward- robe Wilson discovered that there wasa sliding panel in the wall, opening into the adjoining room. Some ane, itis pre- sumea, had opened this panel and ab- stracted the $75 from the purse while Evans was talking to Alma. : Alme was not to be found, but later Policeman Riley arrested her.

Only an Enemy of Those Who Profess to Be Orthodox Jews and Are Not, The Finishing of a New Sepher Torah of the Congregation Beth Mena- chim Streisand, The ceremony of dedicating ana finish- ing a new Sepher Torah for the Congrega- tion Beth Menachim Sireisand on Minna street, near Fourth, yesterday afternoon was rendered decidedly interesting by some plain talk irom Rev. Jacob Voor- sanger, D. D, After a prelude by the An- spacher band of the Pacific Hebrew Or- phan Asylum, Mr. Voorsanger addressed the large congregation. He read from the Hebrew text, “Now, Oh Israel, listen to the statutes and judgments.” He spoke of the Torah of olden times which was given to the children of Israel asa guide of proper conduct when entering che land which God had promi:ea them. There was the written law, he said, and also the oral law. Moses in his appeal to the Is- raelites held that they should not add to ordiminish the law as taught. Dr. Voorsanger said that generations of teachers had added to the law, and the law with those additions had been trans- mitted from one generation to another. “Does the text mean tnat the law isim- mutable and unchangeable?’ he con- tinued. “Does it mean that the constitu- tion of Palestine should govern under changed conditions of the world? That cannot be. Additions have been made that are binding on the Je wish people. I appeal to you that there must be a differ- ent interpretation. The sages of Israel understood that there were certain pro- visions of the law that could be suspended according to the needs of the people. The law may be changed or suspended, but the spirit of religion involved in the law of God is unchangeable. Humanity can- pot add to nor diminish the spirit of God. The Torah is the standard of human con- duct fashioned by divine influence as a guide throughout the ages. *I do not inquire,” said Dr. Voorsanger, “‘whether this ceremony to-day involves a little commercial speculation in order to geta few Jollars, but what 1 desire to know is whether you in your individual capacity, not as a congregation, stand ready to swear allegiance to the Torah in your daily life—to accept it as a guide for humen conduct. That is pretty orthodox. You Lave often hearda 1t said that I am an enemy of orthodox Judaism, but, that is not true. I am an enemy of those who profess to be orthodox Jews but who do not live up to the orthodox standard. They do not make God their own inherit- ance. Tuey.wantto make God the in- heritance of another man. The question to be answered is, ‘Do you live consist- ent lives? How do I know that you are adherents of the Toran? How do Iknow that you are worshipersof a living God? Am [ to know it because you call your- selves orthodox?’ Itis a saying in Cali- fornia that talk is chean.” Dr.Voorsanger quoted the ancient decree that whoever should sacrifice himself for the Torah should desecve honor and greatness. He mentioned the devoted services performed since 1830 by Charles Hess. In closing he expressed the hope that the teachings of the Torah would be ooserved and thal the day would come when the wuole world would be fillea with the knowledge of God. 1. Baer, president of the board of trus- tees of the congregation, then announced that he had been selected as auctionesr to sell the letters for sentences in the un- finished scro!l to the highest bidder. He said that ladies, as well as gentlemen, would have the privilege of bidding. Many letters were sold for $1 each, and ladies were purchasersin several in- stances. The altar was dressed in white, as it1s on the most sacred days. The candles were lighted at the beginning of the ser- vice. The scroll was unrolled in the pres- ence of the congregation. If a word shouid be required to fill an unfinished sentence of the Torah, whic word sbould begin with the letter * then it would be apvropriate that a man named Saunders or Smith <hould bid for the privilege of the letter. The following order of exercises was ob- served yesterday: Prelude, Anspacher Band of P. H. 0. A.; address, Rev. Jacob Voorsanger, D.D. music, Anspacher Band of P. H. 0. A. address, Rev.

William Rader has been invited to meet a number of Congregationalists and others who have independent church ideas and who have an ambition to or- gunize an independent church. They will hold a meetinz some time this week and have urgently requested Mr. Rader to meet with them. Speaking of the movement last night Mr. Rader said: “Ido not think I shall be able to meet with those who have in- vited me, although it has been intimated that they had something of importance to say to me. Having just come from my vacation I have been very busy and 1 shall be very busy all the week.” It is hoped thata permanent organiza- tion of the independents will be made on Thursday evening.
