The action of Caroline Kusel against her husband, 8. A. Kusel, was decided by Judge Murasky yesterday, the court hold- ing that the plaintiff was not entitled to the rellef prayed for. Mrs. Kusel 1%t her hushand according to agreement, and Judge Murasky decided that such course was not in keeping with public policy. 1 He decided that in event Mrs. Kusel was not driven from her home through the cruel treatment of her husband or other- wise she should return, otherwise she could not recover a judgment for main- tenance. e HAS FOUNL A FRIEND. Colonel Henry Moore, the Old Miner Arrested for Vagrancy, Gets His Freedom. Colonel Henry Moore, miner and ex- attache of the Shah of Persia, has found a friend, and yesterday Judge Mogan, af- ter admonishing him not to beg on Mont- gomery street any more, allowed him to go, with the promise that if he again found himself in absolute want he would give him an order to admit him to the Almshouse.

THE EMBANKMENT THROUGH THE MARSH STATEMENT OF GENERAL MAN- AGER EKRUTTSCHNITT. The Condition of the Track on the Alameda Marsh in No Respect Dangerous. CARD TO THE PUBLIC. The settling of the embankment of the South Pacific Coast road in the marsh on the south shore of San Lean- dro Bay, to which considerable atten- | Proceeds Will Be tion has been given of late by the press, does not introduce any element of dan- ger in the operation of trains, and, but for some slight delay that was experi- enced on two or three occasions, would no doubt have passed without notice. In throwing up the embankment the builders of the road excavated ditches in the marsh, leaving little or no space between them and the toe of the slope to support the bank. The action of the tides in running through these side ditches has prevented them from filling up, as would otherwise have been the case, and the settling that has recently taken place was no doubt immediately caused by the recent ballasting of the piece of track in question, increasing somewhat the height and weight of the embankment. On the first signs of trouble watch- men were placed on duty and never at any time was there the slightest danger of trains running into the sink. When- ever settling took place temporary re- pairs were made and the work now in progress is sufficiently well advanced to warrant the expectation that the trouble at that point will be perma- nently remedied. The remedy is a very simple one. The side or borrow ditches will be damned to prevent the forward and backward rush of tide waters, after which they will be filled up with stone and other heavy material to balance the weight of the embankment and pre- vent subsidence. This remedy, which has proven entirely successful in num- bers of similar cases of settling on other parts of the company’s lines, will be applied wherever there are signs of possible settlement, and this statement is made for the purpose of assuring the nublie, our patrons, who are using the line in question, that they run no risk of accident. No train is permitted to cross the repaired track without sig- nals from the watchman, and, should a subsidence, through remote possibil- ity, take place under a passing train, the speed is so slow that accident would be impossible. The trouble means unusual. in question is by no It has been experi- enced in the marshes between Benicia | and Suisun and between Port Costa and | Antioch, in this State; in the marshes bordering on the Atchafalaya River, and in the trembling prairies or narshes bordering on Bayou des Alle- mands in Louisiana. In most of these cases, where the sinks were far more serious and extensive than the one in the Alameda marsh, the same method of treatment was applied. In no case did any accident happen, although the train movements were very much heavier than on the South Pacific Coast Rallway. J.

Hooper Files His Answer. e REFUSES TO PAY THE DEMAND e ALLEGES THAT THE NEW RATH 1S THE LEGAL ONE. e Other Points Are Brought Out in the Pleadings That Will Result in a Thorough Trial of the Suit. e Issues have been joined in the action of the San Francisco Gas and Electric Com- pany against Willlam B. Hooper, pro- prietor of the Occldental Hotel, to re- cover $631 40 alleged to be due for gas consumed during the month of April at the rate of §1 75 a thousand feet. An an- swer was filed yesterday by Mr. Hooper in which he denies owing the company the amount claimed, the defendant set- ting forth the $1 10 a thousand rate, re- cently adopted by the Supervisors for the ensuing fiscal year, as the proper charge, and, after bringing in various collateral matters, which will result in an adjudi- cation of the case to the satisfaction of all concerned, prays to be dismissed with | his costs. The answer reads: For a first and separate defense, defendant denles that the. gas mentioned in the com- laint was furnished, suppiied, sold or delivered ADVERTISEMENT! Kidney : Troubles of Women b y the plaintiff at the rate of $1 76 per one thousand cubic feet, or at any greater rate or more than §110 per one thousand cuble feet, and denies that defendant promised to pay for said gas the sum of 363140, or any sum or amount greater than $110 per one thousand cuble feet, to wit, the aggregate sum of $39S $§, and denies that any account was ever stated between plaintiff and defendant at all. For a second and separate defense defendant alleges: 1. That the gas mentioned in the complaint and_was furnished by plaintift teen candles, and county of San to defendant in the city II. That during all the times mentioned in the complaint and at all times on and since March 4, 1878, there was not and there still are not any public works owned or controiled by the municipality, the city and county of | Ean Francisco, for supplying the said munici- pality with artificial light, and during all the said times last mentioned the plaintiff and its predecessors in interest was and were and has and corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of California for supply- ing sald municipality, and the inhabitants thereof, with artificial light and for the pu pose of supplying ges for the use of sald city and county of San Francisco and its inhab- itants; and during all of said last mentloned times, under the direction of the Superintend- ent of Etreets of said city and county of San Francisco, and under general regulations pre- scribed by the said municipality and by the Board of Supervisors and legislative authority thereof, the plaintiff or its predecessors in in- terest had had and used and during all the same times has and have had and used and plaintift still has and uses the privilega of using the public streets and thoroughfares of sald municipality, and of laying down pipes and conduits therein, and connections there- with, g0 far as was and might be or may be or 18 necessary for introducing into and supply- ing said city and county and its inhabitants with gas light and other illuminating light; and during all the eaid times the pipes and maing of sald plaintiff have been and still are laid down in the streets and highways of said city and county of San Francisco for the pur- pose of supplying gas for the use of said city and_ the inhabitants thereof. TIL. That during all the times last mentioned | the ‘sald city and county of San Francisco | has been and still is a city having a population | of more than 100,000 inhabitants, and that on | April 3, 18%, the Board of Supervisors of sald | city and county of San Francisco duly made | a resolution and determination whereby said hoard determined and fixed the standard qual- ity and illuminating power of gas to be fur- nished by any company or corporation whose | pipes or mains were then or should thereafter | be lald down in the streets or highways of such city for the purpose of supplying gas for | the use of such city and for the inhabitants thereof at seventeen candles, and whereby it determined and fixed and established the maxi- mum rate and price for each 1000 cublc feet of such gas to be charged therefor by any such | company or corporation at $110 per 1000 cublc feet, and no more. IV. That the said resolution of the Board of Supervisors was In full force and effect dur- | ing all times when the gas alleged fn the com- | | | | plaint to have been furnished, supplied, sold | and delivered to defendant was furnished, supplied, sold and delivered to defendant. hereof defendant demands judgment, that he be hence dismissed with his costs of suit. | It is plain that all questions upon which the old rate of $1 75 a thousand feet Is based will be determined through the | points brought up in this answer.

Overwhelming evidence of this is forth- coming. Read the follow- ing letters: Mrs. Anthony Sutter, Crest- line, Ohio, writes: *‘DEAR MRs. PINKHAM: It would be hard to explain to you my con- dition before using Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound. I was a great sufferer from kidney trouble and headache. On rising in the morning I was always tired and sleepy, and never felt like doing any work. Since taking the Compound I feel like a new woman. I sleep well at night, and can work all day without that tired feeling. I'have advised some of my friends to try it, and we all feel thankful for the benefit we have derived from its use. May God bless you for the good you are doing the poor suffering women!” Mrs. F. H. Allen, 419 Nebraska Avenue, Toledo, Ohio, writes : *“DEAR MRs. PINKHAM: Change of life was working on me. My kidneys and bladder were affected. Terrible pains when urinating and an itching that nearly drove me wild. I had tried many remedies. I told my husband I had great faith in yours and he got me a bottle; I am now on my fourth bottle. I feel that I am entirely cured. I canworkallday. Ican hardly realize that such a wonder- ful cure is possible. Lydia E. Pinkham'’s Vegetable Compound is the best medicine for women.” Miss Lockhart Tells How “DEAR MRs. PINKHAM: I cannot express my gratitude to you for the good that Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound has done for me. I have taken five bottles of the Compound and two boxes of Liver Pills and feel better in every respect. I had sdffered for years with dropsy, caused by the pressure of the water. I had the worst kind of kidney trouble, fainting spells, and I could not stand long at a time. I also had female weakness and the doctor said there was a tumor in my left side. The pains I had to stand were something dreadful. A friend handed me a little book of yours, so I got your medicine and it has saved my life. I felt better now from the first bottle. The bloat- ing and the tumors have all gone and I do not suffer any pain.”"— Iiss N. J. Lockhart, Box 16, Elizabeth, Pa. Mrs. Pinkham’s Advice. “DEAR MRs.
