Crane and Fifteen-Year-Old Bessie Wood Leave Oakland Together and Ilrs. Crane and Her Two Children Are in Want. AKLAND, Feb. 12.—The story of a young wife's cruel abandon- ment by a husband who eloped with her 15-year-old sister was related to-day to Chief of Police Hodgkins by Mrs. Harriet M. Crane, who, with her runaway spouse, Fred D. Crane, the eloping sister, Miss Bessie Wood, and the Crane's two babies, arrived here a | month ago from Grays, Idaho. The desertion and elopement have left the distracted woman destitute with one fering from pneumonia. The other child is a girl one vear old. Chief Hodgkins has taken personal charge of the case, which, he declares, appedls to him as one of the saddest that has ever been brought to his attention. Mrs. Crane has been compelled to seek shelter at the home of a sister, Mrs. C. A. Schuyler, residing at 1562 Market street. | The shock has been so severe that her as introduced a bill so | 2| tions, and this | anticipated. | Jith county | the belief that | sed without their | | this phenomenon appears to be in some de- t | relatives fear she will break down under the strain. The accused husband, who is 24 years old, and his girl companion disappeared simultaneo Sunday morning. That they ran away together has been satis- factorily settled so far as the wife is con- cerned. In her report to the police Mrs. Crane sald that early Sunday morning her husband sald he would go out for a walk. An hour later the sister went out, making the same remark. Since then nothing has been seen of either Crane or the girl. The Cranes had been living in.a little < RHSE T THE HUSBAND AND THE WIFE, THE SISTER WHO ELOPED WITH THE FORMER AND THE LITTLE SON OF THE SEPARATED COU- PLE, WHO I8 VERY ILL. % — Upon their arrival here they were sent there by Mrs. Schuyler. Mrs. F. Wet- more, from whom the little family rented the place, discovered that they were with- out means, and put herself to much in- convenience to make the place as com- fortable as possible. The husband was out of emplovment and teriporary work was given him by Mrs. Wetmore's rela- tives. He earned enough to keep the fam- ily in food. His rent was due and the Wetmores did not press him for it, ho‘l- n at the time of the marriage. Crane came there and the acquaintance ended in the determined a short time ago to send the younger sister back to California for her health. According to the state- ments which Mrs. Crane made to the Wet- mores, there was a suspicion that Crane had formed an attachment for his buxom young sister-in-law because he at once de- cided that he would come to California. That led to the migration of all the y. FOR THE AR Long and Interesting Debate. Per Capita Cost of American Soldier Twelve Times More Than That of the French Soldier. WASHINGTON, Feb. 12—The House to-day passed the army appropriation bill and entered upon consideration of the sundry civil bill, the Jast but one of the big money bills. The debate on the army bill was conflned largely to a discussion of the question of passing bills to remove the charge of desertion against soldiers, and was made notable by a statement of McClellan of New York, comparing the cost of the soldier in European armies with the cost in the United States. Ac- cording to his figures, including the cost of pensions, eagh United States soldier involved an annual expense of $2828, while a r;:-rm;gm soldier costs $227 and a French | soldier 3232, Previous to consideration of the appro- priation bills the letter reflecting upon Perry S. Heath, which Suizer introduced | Into the proceedings yesterday, was ex- punged from the record. During the de- bate upon the motion- to expunge Sulzer renewed his attack upon Mr. Heath, re- iterating the statements of yesterday that he was wiiling to father the statements in the letter and declaring that If action was brought against him he would not plead his constitutional immunity. At the conclusion of the general debate upon the army appropriation bill on mo- tion of Fitzgerald of Massdchusetts a res- olution was adopted to give the equiva- lent of two months extra pay to all sol- diers of the volunteer and regular estab- ment who served beyond the limits of United States. It was further agreed that $35 shall be paid to the nearest of kin of any enlisted man and $75 to the nearest of kin of any officer who may be killed or die in service in the Philippines upon the delivery of the body to the fam- ily of deceased. The bill was passed and | consideration of the sundry eivil appro- | priation bill began. Cannon, in charge of the bill, made a briéf explanation, cenfining Bis remarks practically to answering questions asked of him. The bill carried $59.703.264, being $10.8%9,017 less than the estimates and $5.748,041 less than the current law. The bili was then lald aside for the day. The Senate amendments to the naval approprfation bill were disagreed to and a conference was asked for. Ray of New York then formally announced the death | of General Shaw of New York, com- mander of the Grand Arm: and as a mark of respect the House at 5:15 o'clock adjourned.

Plerce of Washington, D. | C., chief orgamizer of the American Fed- | eration of Laber, met with the Bullding | Trades Couneil of this city to-night and { @elivered an exhaustive address upon the importance to labor organtzations of & central and united front. In an interview Organizer Plerce sald: “The American Federation of Labor has been so busy among the great industrial centers of the East during the last ten years that the Pacific Coast and the West- ern States have not been given that at- tention which the rapidly increasing in- terests of labor demand. “The purpose of my tour is to {mpress if I can upon the men who toil the necessity of a strong central and representative or- ganization among them. I want to com= vineg urorganized labor of the need of or- ganikation, and I want to assist in the vork of cementing the labor organiza- tions as they stand. “Let me say that the best evidence of the strength that can be gained from or- ganization js manifest in the great com- binations of capital. Ten years ago a mil- lion-doilar trust was looked upon as a monstrosity. To-day we have a biilion- dollar combination, and what the future has in store for us who can say? “Capital sees the advantage of combina- tion and leaves nothing undons to ae- complish that end. Teil me, why should | not labar? “Right here in Oakland I am informed that labor is well organized, but we want | to tmprove all along the line. The Amer- | ican Federation of Labor hopes to place labor unionism in its true light before the American people. The settlement of labor differences, not by strikes, but by arbitra- tion along legitimate and sound lines, is our object. We believe that organization on this line can be of benefit to the work- ingman, no matter what his trade or his employment.” Organizer Plerce was given a hearty re- ception this evening by the council. Ir- | ing_the week he will meet the various trades unions and other labor organiza- | tions. On Friday evening there will be a | meeting of the Alameda County Federated Trades. The labor leaders here are anx- fous for a public meeting, and plans to | this end were discussed at to-night's ses- | slan of the Building Trades Council After completing his work in California Mr. Plerce will go East by way of the Northwest, visiting all of the labor or- ganizations in Oregon and Washington and the Rocky Mountain States eastward.

So far as the wife ascertained, he had nothing but the few dollars he raised by secretly seliing a sewing ma- rlhine that was among their few posses- sfons.
