John Keller ; Testifles. Jury Learns of Cause Lead- ing to the Attack on the Clergyman. NEW YORK, June 19.—The fate of Thomas G. Barker, on trial at Jersey City for the shooting and wounding of Rev. | John Keller, may go to the jury to-mor- row. The defense had practically finished when the court arose this evening. | Barker and his wife were upon the| stand to-day. They told their story, so far as the eourt would allow, answering the questions of counsel for the defense, and, although the record does not show it, Mr. Van Winkle got reference to Rev. Keller's alleged insult to Mrs Bar-| ker before the jury in one way and an- other, though the nature of the act was| not brought out. ! The purpose of Barker's testimony was k to show that, after having brooded for | a period over what his wife had told him, | he was in a inorbid state of mind, and | when _he came face to face with the min- ister he was carried away by feeling and | began firing; that it was sudden, violent | and temporary insanity, lasting but a moment, but long enough to cover the period of the shooting. Barker admitted that he bought the re- volver at the time he had heard the story which worried him and caused him sleep- less nights and great mental stress. He denied, however, that he bought it for the purpose of shooting’ the clergyman. Mrs. Barker was a little nervous at first | but this finally wore off. She calmiy an- | swered the questions of her husband's| lawyers and by the time she was put| under cross-examination appeared to be| if-control. Pingree’s Body Embalmed.

Vandercool Norton and CLOSE ATTENTION While some time was passed pleasantly in sociability, the greater part of the day was spent in business. The Rivers and Harbors Committee, accompanied by Sen- ator Perkins and Congressmen Metcalf, Woods and Coombs, Colonel Heuer and the local committees already named, em- barked at 10:30 on the United States steamer Slocum at Folsom-street wharf | and went directly to Oakland harbor. | yards decorated with flags and the greet- ing sound of steam sirens were supple- mented by the artillery of the Oakland Yacht Club, which was fired from the clubhouse. Throughout the trip Chairman Burton stood near the pilot-house with maps in | hand, vigorously asking questions. With | him were Senator Perkins, Congressman | Metcalf, Colonel Heuer, W. A. Boole Jr. | of Oakland, James A. Taylor, James de Fremery, Congressman Bankhead, Wil- liam M. Bunker and Secretary Scott of San _Francisco Chamber of Com- merce. Mr. Burton had his stenographer near and to him many observations were dictated and taken down for future refer- ence. The party disembarked at Adams’ whart; rode through Oakland, the arive including a visit to the handsome grounds of F. M. Smith; then proceeded to luncheon. After luncheon. the ladies were taken in car- riages under the direction of Secretary Charles F. Cole of the Oakland joint com- mittee and saw many sections of Oak- land not previously viewed by them. The gentlemen proceeded to Adams’ wharf and embarked in a launch and two small vachts, which were towed by the launch, and went up to the High-street bridge, passing through the tidal basin. Once more they took carriages and went around | to the junction of t.e tidal canal with San Leandro Bay and then drove through Alameda and Oakland back to Adams’ wharf. There they embarked on the Slo- cum once more and steamed back to San Francisco, passing around the battleships on the bay in passage and cheering and being cheered by the crew of the battle- ship Oregon. FACTS SUPPLIED BY SHIP OWNERS During the day several important com- | munications were presented to the atten- | tion of the Committee on Rivers and Har- bors, which had been received from promi- nent shipping men. One of these was| written by Captain W. E. Mighell. This | inclosed a list of twenty-six vessels man- | aged by Mighell which arc unable to go to the Oakland wharves and also had a at mean low tide should be secured in | harbor. Hind, Rolph & Co., shipping men, wrote that-they have sev- eral steamers bringing coal from Van- couver Island, B. C., which are unable to discharge in Oakland because of the lack | of by water. They stated that this n extra charge of 50 cents per ton 1 against Oakland. ~John Rosen- feld’s Sons wrote that their coal vessels d ve feet when laden and none of the larger omes can be sent into to discharge at the wharves. Letters of similar import were received from H. J. Knowles, Williams, Dimond & Co. and H. S. Jerome. The Oakland committee left no chance for the needs of the communities across the bay to be misunderstood. They hand- ed to each member of the Rivers and Har- bors Committee a carefully prepared doc- ument which set forth that the total ton- nage of freight passing through the jetty channel of Oakland harbor in one year, not_including Long Wharf, amounted to 3,273,112 tons. The requests that will be urged at Washington for harbor better- ments were also enumerated. IMMEDIATE PLANS OF CONGRESSMEN The plans of the Rivers and Harbors Committee so far as compieted are as given herewith. To-day are Island, Vallejo and Napa will be visited. The ladies will not go beyond Vallejo. To- morrow San Francisco Bay and Petaluma will be inspected. The ladies will not go. Saturday and Sunday will be devoted to sight-seeing in and about San Francisco. 9 a. m. next Monday the party will start by rail for Stockton, to examine the channeis abtout that town. Tuesday the San Joaquin River and the Sacra- mento River as far as Sacramento will be viewed. Wednesday, the 26th inst., the Upper Sacramento River and the Feather River up *to Nicolaus are on the itinerary. The Congressmen will also sail to the mouth of the Feather River and up the Sacra- mento River to Knights Landing. Thurs- TRAFFIC DIRECTOR STUBBS DISCUSSES ES OF HIS NEW DUTIES?

He said that the new policy would not work any change in the list of officers of any of the rail- roads concerned. In that precise and de- termined manner which is characteristic of the man he remarked: “I will make no changes where I am satisfied with re- sult;“and feel that the man is working Stubbs, who is deemed the greatest traf- fic man in the world, has no frills. He came from Chicago in a Pullman car, the same as any citizen. He was accompanied by his privaie secretary and looked somewhat tired and anxious, as if he al- ready reaiized what a siupendous mental effort is facing him. Harriman is no phil- anthropist, and when he pays a man a small fortune every year it is merely an investment—the hiring of a man whose genius and energy are deemed worthy of the outlay. ‘Will Go to Chicago Early in July. “When do you expect to take up your new work?’ Mr. Stubbs was asked. “At once, or at least as soon as I can settle )y business affairs,”” he replied. “I expect to leave here and go to Chicago the early part,of July.

Hamburg-American yacht Victoria Luise, at which Emperor Willlam made a speech. that he deduced from recent events in China the guarantee that the peace of Eurcpe was assured for come, because of the mutual esteem and spirit of comradeship created by the united action of the allied contingents.

Stubbs last evening to newspaper representatives. who awaited him at the Oakland mole. Mr. Stubbs returns from the East to set- tle all his business here and will leave in the early part of July to take up his new positicn in Chicago, in which city he will make his permanent home. His new position will be that of traffic di- rector of the Union Pacific, Southern Pa- | cific, Chicago and Alton, Oregon Short Line and Oregon Rallroad and Navigation Company. What his salary will be is not known, but last night Mr. Stubbs jocu- larly remarked that the papers were steadily increasing it in their announce- ments of his appointment and that now that he had reached San Francisco he supposed his job was worth $150,000 a year. It is generally supposed, however, that he holds a five-year contract and that his salary will not be less than $70,000 a year. He was not anxious at any time to gi up his home in San Francisco and Har: man no doubt had to make him a tempt- - ing offer to get him to go East. Mr. Stubbs said that the office he now holds was created by Harriman as an ex- periment. Harriman is positive that with a consolldation of the four roads great results can be accomplished.

H. Cone- Dinmore—or Mrs. Cone, for she has al- ready discarded the name of her latest but not lamented husband—has returned to Denver and will obtain a decree of di- vorce as soon as the wheel§ of justice in the County Court can be made to move. Mrs. Cone has not returned to her Denver home, but has engaged a suit of rooms at the Brown Palace. She has spent the time in New York since her sudden departure from the Golden Gate city, and just to pass away the tedious hours is sald to have dabbled a little in stocks. She is reported to have cleared $12,000 in North- ern Pacific on an investment of $1000. But Mrs. Cone does not need to specu- late. She has informed friends since her return that her income is $800 a month. Apparently she no longer grieves over her third matrimonial venture, for during the past few nights she has been the center of a gay crowd of young clubmen on the balconies at the Brown, and her stunning Parisian gowns have been the talk of the house. Mrs. Cone is more than pretty: she is of that type that is called dashing. Mrs. Cone's second husband was superin- tendent of the Smith-Moffatt-Cone mining interests at Cripple Creek. He died in Denver a little more than a year ago, leaving his widow a fortune and a homse on Capitol Hill. WILL BE LYNCHED IF .HE IS CAUGHT Discharged Soldier Kills a Deputy Sheriff and Then Escapes to the Mountains. CHEYENNE, Wyo., June 19.—A report has just reached here from Kemmerer, Wyo., of a double killing on Sunday near Big Piney, in Uinta County. George Ecker, a returned Philippine soldier, about a year ago raised a check and fled the, country. Recently he returned and was located near Big Piney, sixty miles north of Kemmerer. Sunday Deputy Sheriff G. B. Holden of Ulnta County and Fred_Reardon, a prominent merchant of Big Piney, attempted to arrest Ecker, who shot and killed Holden and mortally wounded Reardon. He then fled to the mountains and iz being pursued by a posse of citizens under command of Sheriff James. Feeling is intense, and if captured Ecker will be lynched. Czar Forgives Riotous Students. ST. PETERSBURG, June 19.—Professor Otts’ bulletin says the condition of the Czarina and her child is entirely satisfac- tory.

LODI, June 19.—The mysterious disap- pearance of Thomas Moore, who until a few days ago worked as a barber in this town, has made worry for the law offi- cers and has also caused a pathetic con- dition of affairs in the household he left behind him. His wife and his six chil- dren, the oldest only 12 years of age, were evicted to-day and are now being support- ed by the county. Constable Coleman, in pursuance of an order of court, carried the order of evic- tion to the helpless woman. Mrs. Moore said she was willing to obey the law, but tearfully explained that she and her little ones were without a morsel of food and would have to shelter themselves as best they cculd on the street. She had but a few potatoes in the house and only the night before she had been compelled to sell a pair of scissors to obtaln money for bread with which to keep the life in the hungry children who clung to her skirts and pleaded in their piteous, child- ish way for more food as the constable read the cruel ultimatum of the law. Mrs, Moore said she believed her hus- band went to Sacramento to work in a cigar factory, but the name of it and its whereabouts in that city she did not know. She had not heard from him for three weeks and many days ago the tri- fling amount of money he had left her was used in the effort to nourish her starving brood. Moore was at one ume engaged in ranching near this town and failing in that he tried the barber’s trade. He owed rent to the man Who owns the house in which the family lived and was re- cently ordered to move. When the rent proposition became serious he dropped out of sight. The plight in which he left his family has caused much indignation, PROGRAMME COMPLETED FOR CIRCUIT TURNFEST Visiting Delegates to San Diego Will Devote Four Days to Merry- making.

CALMLY DESCRIBES HIS FEELINGS WHILE DYING Suicide Writes a Faréwell Note After Swallowing a Teaspoonful of Strychnine. LOS ANGELES, June 18.—Lorenzo or Leo F. Merrill, aged 24, committed suicide on his father's ranch near Verdugo last night by taking a teaspoonful of strych- nine. He had been in poor health recent- ly. Despondency is supposed to have been the cause of the act. There is a house on the ranch, but no one lives there, the fam- ily residing in Pasadena. Young Merrill was accustomed to travel back and forth as occasion required. He ‘did not return home last night, and on investigation he was found dead at the ranch house.

CARTERS, June 139.—A dastardly at- tempt to fire the extensive lumber manu- facturing plant of the West Side Flume and Lumber Company occurred a few days ago. The fire was. started at night in a pile of debris contiguous to a mam- moth hotel nearly completed for the ac- commodation of tourists over the scenic Hetch Hetchy and Yosemite Valley Rail- way to Yosemite next summer. The evi- dent purpose of firing the hotel was to attract the attention of the watchmen from the factories, as the following day the discovery was made that the pipe lines and hose had been cut, the water supply shut off and other preparations made for firing other portions ‘of the works. The company was forced to put on an extra watchman for the protection of its properfy.

Om examination, we find a Prostate Gland which has been damaged by cither a contracted dis- order or early dissipation/ These patients bave no weakness at all. Prematureness, Loss of Vitality, ete., are the symptome, or disor- | @ered function,’ of the chromteally inflamed prostate gland. We find by curing this inflam- | mation that full vigor at once retwrns. It | should be understood that tonics, electricity, | ete., might cure a real weakness, but would do harm in inflammation. The main object is to reduce the size of the tender, swollen and iIn- | flamed prostate. This we accompiish by local | treatment, thus avoiding drugs. Men who have unsuccessfully treated for a weakness should now understand the cause of failure. 997 MARKET STREET, Cor. Sixth. visir DR. JORDAN'S caeat MUSEUM OF ANATOMY 1051 MABZET ST. bet.
