Epectal Dispatch to The Call. | CHICAGO, April 10.—Seldom. If ever, | In Chicago, has a more enthusiastic body of men met around the banquet table than the one which met to-night under the auspices of the | Hamilton Club to celebrate Appomat- tox day and to greet Governor Theo- dore Roosevelt of New York, who had come from Albany as the guest of The enthusiasm was extended in generous measure to other speakers of the evening, but the | greater part of 1t was given to the Gov- | ernor when hé rose to~make his ad- dress on “The Strenuous Life.” | The hall was a maze of waving hand- | kerchiefs and napkins and the cheers | that greeted him as he rose prevented the gpeaker for many minutes from be- | | glnning his speech. It was a greeting | | such as one man does not recelve more than once or twice in a lifetime. The | | boxes of the Auditorium, In which the | banquet was held, as well as the seats | in the hall back of the banauet floor, were fllled with a large throng. who | had come to look on and to listen to the speeches and these, as well as the | members of the Hamilton Club and thelr invited guests, joined In the wel- come that for a few minutes seemed to overpower the Governor. Fully 600 were around the banauet tables where President Cody, who pre- sided, rapped for order, and in a short address introduced the guest of the evening. As soon as Governor Roosevelt was given a chance to talk he made a ring- ing address, upholding the administra- tion’s policy, concluding as follows: The army and the navy are the sword | and shield which this nation must carry if she is to do her duty among the nations | of the earth—If she is not to stand mefely as the China of the Western Hemisphere. Our proper conduct toward the tropic islands we have wrested from Spain is merely the form which our duty has teken at the moment. When once we have put down armed resistance, when once our rule is ac- knowledged, then an even more difficult task will begin, for then we must see to it that the islands are administered with absolute honesty and with good judg- ment. If we lgt the public service of the islands be turned into the prei’) of the spoils politiclan, we shall have begun to tread the path which Spain trod to her own destruction. We must send out there only good and able men, chosen for their fitness and not because of their partisan service, and these men must not only ad- minister impartial justice to the natives and serve their own Government with honesty and fidelity, but must show the utmost tact and firmness, remembering that with such people as those with whom | we are to deal weakness is the greatest | of crimes, and that next to weakness | comes lack of consideration for their principles and prejudices. At the conclusion of the banauet Governor Roosevelt spent a short time in his hotel and was then driven to the Michigan Central Derot, where he took a train for Ann Arbor, where he is to address the students of the Michigan University to-morrow. GRAND LODGE OF DANIA. Officers and Delegates Welcomed at Petaluma. PETALUMA, April 10.—The grand offi- cers and delegates to the Grand Lodge of Danfa arrived here on the 5:30 o'clock train this evening.

Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. BALINAS, April 10.—Peter Castro was to-day found guilty of burglary in connection with the brutal assault upon Mrs. James L. Douglass at Cas- troville on the night of March 6. Mrs. Agnes Douglass, the victim of the assault, was the first witness. She gave minute Some one knocked at the door of the | Douglass home and forclbly entered the hallway. She recognized the man as Peter Castro. He seized her and dragged her out past the gate, on to the road and toward the plaza en- trance, a distance of over fifty feet. He there beat and kicked her until she became unconscious. A rigid cross- examination by F. A. Treat, attorney for the defense, only strengthened her story. Mrs. D. W. McPhie, sister-in-law of | Mrs. Douglass, corroborated her testi- mony. She told of having called for | help from the neighbors when Mrs. | Douglass was seized. Defendant, who appears sallow, is apparently the most | unconcerned person in the courtroom, | and does not appear to realize his posi- | tion. | The prosecution introduced other tes- | timony to corroborate that of Mrs. | Douglass. James L. Douglass, the hus- band of the victim, said his wife in- | formed him early the next morning of He sought out Castro and | asked why he had been to his house. Castro had denied knowledge of the af- | been on a drunk. | Castro’s flight and capture were de- scribed, after which the prosecunun‘ rested. | The defense called several members of the so-called Mafia gang, but their | testimony did not show the where- | abouts of the accused after 10:30 o’'clock that night, and it was apparent from their actions that they were trying to shield him. Castro was called to the stand and testified as to his movements on the night of the outrage. He became con- fused and contradicted himself. He| could give no reason for his flight. His | story was a general denial of all the testimony of the prosecution. One of the witnesses for the accused Miss Josle Collins, gave startling testi- mony, which was made use of by the District Attorney. She said when Cas- tro came to her brother’'s house for a horse he said some one had dragged Mrs. Douglass out of her house the | night before and beaten her, and that her husband, “Jim" Douglass. was not | at home at the time. The case was given to the jury at 4:30 o'clock. It returned to the courtroom in fifteen minutes with a verdict of details of the outrage. | gullty. Castro, as soon as the verdict was read, began to shake and tremble | as though with ague, and seemed for | the first time to realize his position. | Upon being removed to the Bheriff's office his mother, sisters and brothe were found waliting for him. A long| and tearful conference was held, which is believed may lead to further arrests. CARDINAL DEFEATED ’ BY MOUNTAIN GIRLS | Nevada University “Co-Eds’” Win the Basket-Ball Game on Stanford Campus. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, April 10.— After two years of planning and walting | falr athletes of | Stanford were defeated this afternoon in | their contest with the *Co-eds” from the University of Nevada by a score of 3 to 2. The game was close and interesting throughout and so good was the interfer- ence that neither side was able to score | it tie second half. Toward the middle of this half Nevada gained a decided ad- | vantage by Miss Linscott's successtul field gonl. With two points to thelr credit Miss Strosnelder tried for goal by a free | throw and put the ball into the basket. The Stanford giris then rallled and a pretty field goal by Captain Tucker saved the Cardinal from a whitewashing. Probably the prettiest play of the day | was one that did not count. ine ball | was sent fairly into the basket by Miss | Tucker from the 30-foot line. It was a beautiful throw, but the umplire's wi tie had sounded to remove an inju layer of Cardinal who had been hurt I breceding scrimmage, and so there | WAE N0 score.

In the hour and a half of game there were many hard falls and scrimmages. There was no unnecessary _roughness, however. Everything was done in a business-like way. In fact, much of the play was pantomime in character, as the Nevada players outplayed the home aggregation. Their passing was quiet and sure and their plays re well worked out. The Stanford girls relied more on individual play, which resulted in keeping them busy in defending their own goal, allowing them fewer chances for offensive work. The team lined up as follows: Nevada—Louise Ward, captain, right guard; Ethel Sparks, left guard; Francés Kerby, cen. ter; Btella Linscott, home: Winifred Stros- netder, right forward; Bernice Worland, left forward; Ethel Peckham, center guard. ‘tanford—Frances Tucker, captain, center; | Emily Dole, stationary center: Tillie Swanson, forward center; Yrene Pitcher, left guard: Elizabeth Lewis, right guard; Margaret Phelps, lett forward; Winitred Morgan, right forward. 4 The officials were: Umpire, Louise Linscott; referee, Mayme Merritt; timekeepers, Maud March and Mary Gilman | e ) T NO FURTHER TIME GIVEN. LONDON, April 11.—The Italian Gov- ernment, according to a special dispatch from Rome, has declined to give Colom- big any further time in which to pay the Cerruti claim, under Mr. Cleveland's award, and has ordered the Atlantic squadron to proceed immediately to Car- tagena “to bring the Colombians to thelr senses.” Negotiations at a Standstill.

Walker, president of the Nic- araguan canal commission, on the stand. He said that canned roast beef | had been used by -the commission’s | surveying parties on the isthmus. The men did not like this beef, preferred bacon and the fresh native beef; but it had not been found unwholesome. If outfitting a large expedition to the tropics he would include some of the | canned beef as a ration, but not very much. Dr. Charles H. Castle, an assistant sur- | geon of the First Ohio Cavalry, for a | time brigade surgeon, and one of the men whose names were given by Lieutenant Gampfer as being present at Lakeland, Fla., when Mr. Morehouse, agent for | Armour & Co., said that their beef had | een chemically treated, said that on two occasions he had found the meat spoiled after it had passed inspection. On the 15th of August he had met the Armour agent, whose name he did not know, in the presence of Captain Carmichael and Lieutenant Gampfer at the commissary | depot. Dr. Castle called the attention of | the agent to some discolorations of a greenish character on the meat. The agent replied: “The discoloration is due to some chemical with which the beef was treated upon being put in the refriger- ator.”” “I asked him what the formula was,” continued Dr. Castle, “but he replied that he did not know."” Dr. Castle identified a letter he had ad- dressed to the chief commissary at Tam- pa on the 23d of August last, asking that e be allowed to purchase beef at Lake- land, and not be compelled to receive beef shipped in, because of the frequent con- | demnations of the refrigerator beef at Tampa. Falling to receive a prompt re- sponse, he had wired and received author- | ty for a time to make the purchases of | local butchers. Describing the odor emitted by the meat, Dr. Castle said it was not of a disgusting character, but that it was an aromatic acrid, sour smell. He had reached the conclusion since he returned to his labor- | atory work in Cincinnati that the beof had ‘been treated elther with the gas formaldehyde or the kindred solution, | formalin. He had made no recommenda- | tlon to any superlor officer concerning the | agent's statement because he had sup- | posed that the War Department knew of the process, if any was used. | Sidney Reid, a reporter in the New York office of the Associated Press, gave the particulars of an interview he had with General Miles at the Waldorf-Astoria on the 3ist of January last. In this inter- view General Miles was represented as | telling of the inquiries he had set afoot concerning the beef supplied to the army, as saying that the canned roast beef was, nothing more than the refuse of beef from which beef extract had been made, and as stating that he had overwhelming ecvi- dence that the embalmed beef was treated with chemicals. Mr. Reid presented the court with a cor- rect copy of the interview as prepared by him. Referring to an Interview with Ge eral Miles printed in the New York He: ald Mr. Reid said it was not a correct reproduction of the Miles interview. *I saw portions of my interview in the Her- ald,” he said, ‘‘combined with other mat- ter which I did not write.” | In reply to questions from Major Lee Mr. Reld said he did not have General Miles' testimony before the war investi- gating commission in mind when he talked with him or when he wrote his ar- ticle. His conversation with General Miles had occurred in the office of the hotel and the latter at first declined to be in- terviewed, excusing himself several times. Upon a later attempt on his part General | lles had consented to read what pur- orted to be interviews with him in the | New York evening papers of that date and had then expressed himself as rep- | resented in the Assoclated Press dis- patches. | Mr. Reid said that General Miles knew he represented the Associated Press and that he was taking notes. On the way to his office he had compared his mem- orandum with that made by the reporter of the New York Times, who was pres- ent at the time, and found they agreed | substantially. | “I don’t claim that the verbiage is ab- | solutely correct,” he said, “but I do claim | that it is correct In substance and that it does not misrepresent what General Miles said."” Moreover, he had volunteered to sub- mit the interview to General Miles when written out, but the general had said that he was too busy to give attention to it, or had made some other excuse; con- | séquently the general had not seen the | article after 1t was prepared. The court | then adjourned for the day. General Shafter will give his testimony | to-morrow. He sald to-night that he | would probab in’ Washington only a few days, as he preferred to be In San Francisco, where the work of trans porting the troops is being accomplished. He sald that he did not feel that his presence there was required, but he pre. | ferred to go back as soon as possible, remin CYCLIST RUNS OVER A COUGAR Strange Tale of a Wash- | ington Man. Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, April 10.—M. Eby, an en- gineer at Rock Quarry, near Vancou- ver, Wash,, lives about a mile from the scene of his daily labor, going to work each morning before daylight and re- turning again at night on his bicycle. One morning last week he was bowl- ing at a fast pace when he came sud- denly upon a large mountain lion ly- ing asleep In the pathway. Neither heard the other untik it was too late to avert a collision. The bicyclist rode turbed Eby's equilibrium and he was about to fall from his wheel, when, ac- cording to his own story, he was mi- raculously righted by a stroke from the animal’'s paw. The blow was of just sufficient force, Eby claims, to place him again in an upright position on his wheel ready for scorching, and as the incentive was not lackine. he flew. He would not even look back to see how the cougar took the encounter. On reaching home he found that both his shirts were torn through at the sleeve and other evidences of the truth | of his story is revealed in four bloody scratches, where the claws of the cou- gar had stripped his skin. Friends and neichbors of Eby believe his story to be a truthful narrative of an encounter that was both novel and thrilling. For some time it has been seen. Only a couple of weeks ago Mr. Reese, a neighbor of Ebv, saw one just outside his garden fence. An effort fs being made by the neighbors to hunt them and kill them.

LOS ANGELES’ SOLID SIX DEFEATS EATON LOS ANGELES, April 10.—Mayor Eaton’s veto of the amended ordinance extending the limits of the ofl-boring | area in the West Lake and Sunset Park districts was presented to the Council to- day. Not a speech was made, not a word of comment in its favor uttered, and when it came to a vote the solid six that stained the original ordinance disre- arded the Mayor's protest and ed the measure over his head. The terms of the ordinance remove the deadline and contract the proscribed district, render- ing it lawful to bore for ofl in the Nob Hill neighborhood. ~ This favors the Huntington streetcar tem and permits it to sink as manv oil wells as it can find accommodation for on the Kofoed tract that was secured by option several weeks ago. VST TRACT LOST T0 THE RAILWA Decision in the Overlap| Land Case. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. | LOS ANGELES, April 10.—An opinion | | favoring the plaintiff in the case of the United States vs. the Southern Pacific Rallroad Company was handed down | by Judge Ross of the United States District Court to-day. The net result | of the decision is to give to the Govern- ment nearly 610,000 acres of land which | has heretofore been held and claimed by the railroad company. The United States originally brought three suits against the Southern Paaific Railroad Company to determine title to the odd-numbered sections of land within the twenty and thirty mile limits | of the grant made by the United States | to the Southern Pacific Railroad Com- | pany through an act of Congress in | March, 1871. The disputed land was | situated within twenty miles of the general route of the Texas Pacific Rail- road. The three suits were combined. | In rendering his opinion the Judge | determined that the Texas Pacific Rail- | road had made a valid location of its | general route and all lands within the | twenty-mile limit of that line, amount- ing to 610,000 acres, were excepted from | the Southern Pacific grants, and the | Government was entitled to a decree against the Southern Pacific Railroad Company for those lands. It was further decided that the at- tempted location of the Texas Pacific Railroad Company from Yuma to San Diego via San Gorgonio Pass was not authorized by act of Congress, as a | definite location had never been com- pleted; that lands falling within the limit of that route and outside of those | of the direct route of the Texas Pacific | were granted to the Southern Pacific | Company and that that company is entitled to a decree for those lands. | The court also held that the Colorado River Irrigation Company was a bona fide purchaser of 5000 acres of land er- roneously patented to the Southern Pa- | cific Railroad Company. DEGENERACY OF A STUDENT. ‘» EVANSTON, Il 7ADI‘" 10.—Chester | Smart, a shoemaker and student at the Garrett Biblical Institute, where he has | been taking a theological ccurse with a view to preparing himself for the min- istry of the Gospel, was arrested to-day on a charge of assaulting the sickly six- vear-old daughter of Mrs. Bulletta An- derson. He was given a preliminary hearing this afternoon and held to the Grand Jury. When the police searched his rooms most horrible evidences of de- generacy were found. ADVERTISEMENTS.

ADVERTISEMENTS. When a man is 3 struck down by a ¢ ’}é poisoned arrow tip- \‘l_(u l. ped with the venom & of the deadliest of serpents, he knows that his time has come. Death is only a question of moments; but not one manina thousand realizes that when a little extra bile gets into his blood his whole system is being poisond just as truly as if a venom- tipped arrow was sticking 1n his vitals. Rattlesnake poison is a good deal quick- er than bile-poison but the latter will do just as deadly work if it keeps on accu- mulating in the system. Probably two- thirds of the cases that end in consumption begin with * liver complaint ”’ and indiges- tion. These troubles would never get as far as consumption if Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery was used before the bile-poisoning got fairly under way. This remarkable ‘““Discovery”’ invigorates the torpid liver and gives it power to filter the poisons out of the system rapidly and thoroughly. 5 : It strengthens the digestive fluids and enables them to make rich red nourishing blood; it builds up healthy muscle, steady nerve force and enduring strength. The experience of Mr. Val Burkard, living at 65 Mohr Ave., Buffalo, N. Y., is given in his own words: * Five weeks ago I followed your advice and took two bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Med- ical Discovery and also two bottles of the * Pleas- ant Pellets.’ I consider myself entirely cured, as there have been no eruptions since I finished the last bottle. I think it is the greatest remedy on the globe for blood and digestive disorders. My appetite increased wonderfully and I have also gained flesh, I would like everybody ta know the true value of Dr. Pierce’s medicines as Tam confident by persistent use they cure all ailments for which they are recommended.” No household should be without a relia- ble doctor’s book.
