Document Showing That Cora Webster Never Was Divorced, Her Husband Has Married Again and Is a Pauper in an Alms- 0K LAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL.] 908 Brosaway, Augz. 6. The attorneys for Rev. B:pjamin F. Hudelson sprung their long-promised sur- this morning in tke suit of Cora or Johnston, for maintenance, oduced a certified record «f the g of a divorce to Johnston in Iu- this ot course left him marry Cora Webster. As be has never been divorced from Cora Johnston they are still legally husband and wife and the womun could not ever been the wife of B. F. Hude:son. Johnston has married again and is now pauper, receiving regular aid from the county at Livermore. He is, therefore, a st, never having been divorced irom a, his wife, anl i1 the woman persists t she married Hudelson she also acknowledg bizamy. These are the points which Hudelson’s attorneys brought out 10-day. An effort was made by the woman’s at- torney to keep out the record of the Indi- ana divorce because of an error in srelling of the name, but Judge E:lsworth over- to ruled the objection and aliowed it as part | of the evidence. Witnesses were put on by the defense to prove that Cora Webster was never known, as Mrs. Hudelson till the com- mencement of the sent suit. Stephen irarda of Modesto told of the life Cora Vebster led at Modesto at the time it is lleged she was livins with Hudelson as his wife. There are several other wit- nesses to be examined. n D DREW HIS KNIFE. L Anton Swartz Expelled From School for Drawing 1t on Pupils and Teacher.

RUMOR HAD IT WRONG, Mrs. Hinckley Denies That She Is En- gnged to Marry Attorney A. A. Moore Jr. OAKLAND, Car., Aug. 26.—Mrs. Flor- ence Biythe-Hinckley was very anxious this evening to contr:dict the published statement that she was engaged to be | married to Attorney A. A. Moore Jr. | I am surprised that such nonsense should be published in a paper,” she said at the Hinckley home in Fruitvale to- night. “All the parties could be reached by telephone and yet noattempt was made to ascertain wiether the rumor was true or not. The first I knew of the rumor was last Saturday night when a CALL repre- sentative called on me and toid me about it. Isaid it was all false and without a particls of foundation in factand the pa- 10 attention to the gossip. Iam sirous that my denial should be | published. 1 say positively that there is | not a word of truth in the rumor. I havs only known Mr. Moore a short time and | it 1s ridiculous to suggest such a thing as gement, n not desirous of newspaper noto- riety, having bad more than enough of it, and I cannot understand why such a story could be published on the mere gossip of some one who probably has a motive in | spreading the rumor.” | A. A. Moore Jr. returned home from Monterey to-night and expressed great in- dignation at the rumor. Mrs. Hinckley isnot yet out of mourning for her late husband ana Mr. Moore says it is a piece of cruelty to the young lady and one which could easily have been avoided.

Furthermore, the accounts for refreshments had been very loosely kept, and in a number of in- stances those who are reported to be delin- quent repudiate the claims against them. ‘The members who ure realiy delinquent are paylng up rapidly, and the assignee | says that all the debts will be liquidated.

Father Akerly. The rough interior of the new church was hidden as much as possible by flowers and leafy decorations, and when the cas- was brought in it was completely covered with orchids, the offerings of hundreds who had known and loved the venerable pastor during the last half century. There were two very prominent mourn- One was Rev. Father King of 8t. Mary’s and the other was | aged Mrs. Manny, in whose parlor St. John'’s congregation worshiped before the old church was built. Father King and Father Akerly were close friends for years. Both came to Oakland when com- paratively young men and both have grown old in the service of their respec- tive chuiches. As a mark of respect to the pioneer Episcopal minister the flags 3!1 St. Mary’s School were at hall mast all ay. The cortege was headed by a cross- bearer, toliowed by the following Pusb)ra: Rev.

The church was crowded to excessand many who could not obtain admission took advantage of scaffoiding to view the cereruonies, and there were hundreds who could not get near the entrance. Several clergymen assisted at the ritual and many members of Celiforma Com- mandery, Knights Templar, were present, although they took no part in the ser- vice. The remains were intezred at Moun- tain View Cemetery, alongside the casket of the wife of the deceased. Submitted Questions.

SEEK T0 SHOW FAMILY STRIFE The Defense Tries to Prove Hoffman's Domestic Life Unhappy. This It Is Claimed Was a Suf- ficient Motive for His Suicide, Judge Campbell Rules Some Evidence Along This Line Not Com- petent. The cross-examination of D~ George F. Shiels was continued by Attorney Ach in the Fizel case yesterday mornming. The doctor haa made some further experi- ments with a pistol and testified that there was a flash when the weapon was discharged at a disitance of a half inch from an obj-et. In expressinz his opinion as to the amount of shock resulting from various injuries the doctor gave a description of a “knock-out blow” and explained how it produces unconsciousness. He said the head of the party receiving the blow is forced around as far as it will o and then a very slight pressure will jar the spinal cord and produce uncon- sciousness. Mr. Ach asked the doctor if an injury to the sphenoid bone, as in Hoffman’s case, would not necessarily result in an injury | to the medulla oblongata and produce urconsciousness. The witness replied i that it would not asan injury to the me- dulla would resalt in death. Chief of Police Lees was called and pro- duced two copies of a letter supposeu to have been written by Mrs. Hoffman to her uncle. One of the copies bad been found in Mr. Hoffman’s desk and the other on his body. The defense sought to introduce these as evidence, but Mr. Ach objected. General Barnes argued that he had a | right to present the letters as reouttal to the testimony of Mrs. Hoffman that her husband’s domestic life was a happy one. The general said he proposed to show by the letter that Hcffman's life was full of clouds and distress, that he was harassed | and perplexed by trouble with his family | to such an extent as to drive him to sui- | cide. | The court held that the only proper way to get the letters in as evidence would be by cailing Mrs. Hoffman to testify in regard 1o them. General Barnes said he had felt some delicacy about e aining the widow on that point, but if he could in- troduce the letters in no other manner he would call her asa witness. Solomon Lewek, a hotel-keeper of Marysville, whose wife was a cousin of Hoffman, said he had been shown these letters by the deceased on April 30 and had some conversation in regard to them. He was askea to tell of thisconversation. Mr. Ach objected to the witness testify- ing as 10 that, and the point was argued a'.dgm“ length by the attorneys of both cides. Judge Campbell said his mind was rather undecided as to the law, but he thought the admission of that evidence would open the door to the introduction of testimony in regard to trouble in the Hoffman family which had occurred at any time. He said that evidence showing that ihere had been any quarrel between Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman on or about the day of Mr. Hoffman's death wsould be competent, but that April 30 was too re- mote from the time of death, and he there- fore would sustain (he objection. _General Barnes then siated that he de- sired it to appear in toe record that he nad proposed to prove by the witness that on April 50 Mr. Lewek had been shown this letter from Mrs. Hoffman to her uncle and one from the uncle to Mrs. Hoffman. The witness had been told by Mr. Hoffman that these letters nad been torn up by his wite, and that he had pasted them together and mads copies of them, That later the witness had told his wiie of Hoffman’s family trouble, and that she wrote Mr. Hoffman offerine to a | tempt 1o effect a reconciliation. Hoffman replied that this would be no use, as his wife was set ugainst bim, bad been drawn over to her mother’s side, and i. was im- le to change her. The testimony in regard to the family «ffairs of Heffman is an important part of | the case of the defense, as it 13 hoped to show a motive for suicide in the worry | resulting from Hoffman’s trouble with his | mother-in-law and wife. An attempt will be made to-day to introduce more testi- mony along this line. The Unitarian Fote. ALAMEDA, CaL., Aug. 26.—The prepar- ations for tie leie to be given next week by the ladies of the Unitarian church a well under way and all will be in readi- ! ness on Monday.

EDEN 1§ STILL WITHOUT ADAN Some of the Hunters for Dusky Brides Returned Bachelors. Their Ship Wrecked on a Coral Reef by a Tropical Hur- ricane. Inglorious and Womanless the South Sea Expedition Uame to a Disastrous End, From a story told by a member of the Percy Edwards expedition, who arrived here this morning in a wearied and broken down condition, it would seem that to plan an expedition to colonize the South Sea Islands and to carry out these plans are wide'y different propositions. The brig Percy Eiwards, it will be re- membered, left this City on the morning ot February 25, with 101 passengers on board, bound for the Solomon Islands, said to be an Adamless Eden, where it was intended to plant a colony, load the ship with products of the island and re- turning dispose of them and divide the profits equally among the colonists and some few stockholders. It appears from the story that the stock- holders went aboard for the pleasure of the trip, but as soon as the vessel was well | on its way trouble tezan between them and the colonists, who were a hetero- geneous collection of men of all nationali- ties vicked from various parts of the country. Hostilities commenced when, on the first night out, a dog belonging to one of the stockho!ders was thrown overboard. This was a small thing in itself, but it was the beginning of the end. The next day a protest came from some half-dozen miners who were in the company and had formed a faction of their own. They ob- jected strongly to going to the islands at all, and wznted the vessel headed for some of the mining regions of South America. Majority ruled, however, and the miners and their faction were in- formed that they could stick by the ex- pedition and go to the South Seas or get out and walk. They chose the former course in a very disgruntled manner | which promised trouble. ‘Things were verv quiet for awhile, and | on the 14th of April they anchored off | Honolulu, where « boat was sent ashore | for some needea supplies, and on the 15th of March they arrived at the portof Levu- ka, one of ibe Fiji Islands. Here a wet blanket was thrown over them by the British Consul, who informed them that they could notland on any of the Solomon Islands without the permission of the British land agent, and in case the priv- ilege was granted they would be obliged | to pay duty on all goods shipped into the islands. This unexpected setback caused all the petty bickerings to break out afresh, and atone fime serious trouble was antici- pated. One faction wanted the ship taken to Auckland, where she might be sold and the money equally divided, and others wished to set the British Government at defiance and go ahead and colonize with- out permissicn. At this juncture a Brit- ish man-of-war came into the harbor and the commander came aboard the Percy Edwards and advised the prospective coi« onists to take no rash steps, as the islands were under the protection of the British Government, and no one could colonize without permission from the proper sources. Advices were alsoreceived from the Gov: ernor of the Fiji Islanas at Suva and the American Consulate, stating that they could make no interference in behalf of the colonisis, By this time the most of the crew had deserted, the exception being tne captain and two sailors. and the ma- jority of the colonists had signea three- year contracts with plantersin the vicinity to work on plantations. Somefew took up small plats of land and will try their hand at farmine. It then decided to take the vessel to New Z2aland, sell nerand di- vide the protits, A British vessel arriving in the harbor about this time discharged half ber crew, and these were secured io work the Percy to Auckiand, Trey set sail on the 28th of May, but on the 1st of June encountered a hurricane. They ran before it for three days and finally made the portof Noumea, with the vessel almost a wreck. The few remeining members of the ill- starred expedition then separated and started to make their way back home as best they might. Bome few are working their way on coasting vessels, while seven are still in Auckland waiting for their friends to for- | ward enough money to brine them home. Freshmen Guarding Guiberson, BERKELEY, CAn, Aug. 26 —As the days vo by the interest in the freshman- sophomore rush next Monday evening pgrows greater and greater in intensity. The rush will doubtless be the hardest fought friendly battle ever held on the ! Berkeley campus. As a precaution against having the test men in their class | spirited away and held in confinement until the rush is over, as has been the case several times heretofore, the big men are being kept under close surveillance by their classmen. Guirerson. the giant frashman, who stands 6 fee 6 inches and weighs 225 pounds, has a cordon of 1901 men about him continuously, lest he be inveigled into some trap by the sophs. May Mot Be Bituminized. BERKELEY, Cavn., Aug. 26.—It is prob- able that Shattuck avenue may not be bituminized this year after all. Contractor William F, Bryant bas refused to com- mence the work on the advice of his at- torney, who maintains that the proceed- ings of the board were irregul.r. In any event if a contest arises the work will be indefinitely postyonad and will have to be put off until the rainy season passes. Street Suparintendent Chick proposes to advise the Beara of Trustees to proceed against Bryant’s bondsmen who went his security tor $500 to secure the satisfactory completion of the work. Struck a New Well. BERKELEY, CarL., Aug. 26.—The Ala- meda Water Company has struck a flow of 85,000 zallons per day from a new arte- sian weil which it is boring near Wildcat Canyon. The company bored two welis in the vicinity before striking a flow. This increase will be a material assistance in tiding over the water famine which has threatened the college town. The re- sumption of street sprinkling throughout the town will probably result. R-ception to Freshmen.
