Woman’s Career in Pasadena. PASADENA, Jan. 15.—Mme. Gertrude I'Ajuria operated in this city about a year ago. She defrauded local merchants out of several thousand dollars. She came here from no one knew where and_hired stylish apartments at the Hotel Green, the leading tourist hotel. She was a fine looking woman, well appearing and well spoken and she had with her a little child who was affiicted with St. Vitus dance. g at the Green a short time d a house at 19 South Los s avenue. - The hotel people had of the madame’s operations_else- and becoming suspicious of her, | i _her out.

After working | ev body in the city whom she could the madame suddenly left town, packing in her trunks her movable values and leay- ing what she could not conveniently carry.

Replying tg them, Hutton said that |'so far as he knew no one joined the body | of lynchers during the march from the Schoolhouse to the hotel, where the pris- | oners were confined, ‘amd that the lynch- ers did not unmask before separating. As | Hutton was leaving the stand Raker re- | marked: “Suppose Mr. Hutton be allowed to g0 when and where he pleases now?" | ““He always has been,” said Post. | The defense has asserted many times | that Hutton was restrained of his liberty and kept under guard. Raker's remark drew thunder from the clouds and a stormy session of the court followed. Morris Takes the Stand. The direct examination of Ciaude Mor- ris, the self-confessed murderer of Calvin | Hall, James Hall, Frank Hall, Daniel Yanfis and Martin Wilson, was, then taken up. Raker objected to Morris’ being allowed | to take the stand, on the ground that Morris was a coconspirator and therefore not entitled to testify. The objection was' overruled. Raker remarked that every | time the defense made an objection the court silenced counsel before the objec- tion was completed. Judge Harringfon said: “Raker, you hush or you'll get it.” | “Get what, Judge?" asked Rake: “T'll put you in jail, that's what. His Honor referred to the defense, and Raker in particular, as the “irascible counsel,” and sald “Raker, I'll give you anything on God's earth if you ask for it, if it’s within the law.” Raker told Deputy Attorney General George Sturtevant to proceed with the witness. “Thank God,” exclaimed Sturtevant, and Raker retorted: “Thank some one nearer to you—some closer friend.” Morris was asked as to his acquaintance | and intimacy with certain members of the | lynching party. To all ef such questions | the defense objected and was' overruled. | Raker objected on the grounds that the statements of the witness were in direct contradiction to the evidence previously | given, and that his testimony was given under the promise or the hope of immu- nity from punishment. Morris told of the meeting at Trow- bridze's store, of James Brown's (the de- fendant) invifation to him to join in the Iynching party and of his refusal at first to take part in it. Later he accepted the proposition on the statement of Brown that there had been many lynchings with- out the participants being punished. | Raker objected to every question and said that the defense entered objections so that the court would not say later that cer- tain lines of testimony had not been gb- | jected to. “You're granted your objections, by all that's heavenly!” exclaimed the court. Corroborates Hutton’s Story. Raker later objected on the ground that Sturtevant was asking questions in a manner to “educate the witness”’ and the court ruled that the prosecution must frame its questions in a different man- ner. Amid many objections, Morris told of the meeting at the schoolhouse, substan- tially ‘as it had been described by Hutton, his co-conspirator. The court overruled all the objections and remarked that Raker was not happy unless he injected bile and venom into everytHing he had to say. Raker called attention to the great similarity of language used by Hutton and Morris, the latter's answers to some ques- tions being exactly as given by Hutton. When it came to_the testimony regard- ing the wagon spokes brought in by the country party for the town party on the night of the lynching, the prosecution ordered the clerk to bring in a handful of wagon spokes, This brought forth strenu- ous objection from the defense on the ground that the court was allowing the prosecution to bring in illustrative evia dence in the face of the denial of the.ap- plication of the defense to bring in evi- dense of a similar nature. Raker said that the witness would testify to_any- thing suggested by the prosecutzm. Judge Harrington arose from his chair and ex- With with all breaking Building. cured me steam to Mr. A.

A most enjoyable reception was held. The wedding presents were numerous and elaborate. The bride was gowned in a white crepe de chine over ~white taffeta. The bodice had yoke and sleeves of Chantilly lace, edged with pleated ruffies of crepe. The skirt was paneled with Chantilly lace and the train was formed of pleated ruf- fles of the crepe and chiffon. She carried a bouquet of lilies of the valley, veiled with tulle.

Morris then told of the party marching from the schoolhouse to the hotel and the lynching of the prisoners with but few variations from the story as told by Hut- ton. Raker Fails to Break In. When the afternoon session began, Spencer requested the court to permit Raker to take up the cross-examination of Morris, as Raker's peculiar knowledge of the case best fitted him in the defence of his client, James W. Brown. Judge Harrington denied the request, saying he had excluded Raker from cross-examina- tion. Raker remarked that he could not concelve why the court should attempt to control the defense and asserted his belief that the court had no authority to designate as to who should examive a witness. Spencer took up the examination and at once made an application that the tes- timony of the witness be stricken out, as he was a conspirator. The applica- tion was denjed and an exception taken. Spencer Inquired as to the character and relations between the father of Morris (since deceased) and Mr. Trowbridge at the time of the Iynching. This fact brought out that the two men were very unfriendly and that the witness partici- pated in the enmity, ~which was occa- sloned by business differences. Later Mosris was asked whether he had made arrangements for a room at the Grand Central Hotel, had paid his bill at the hotel or had made any arrangement regaraing its pay.. to Swhish: ha Seeplien “ but that he expected to pay his bill." These questions were objected to and_Spencer sald: ¥ “We desire to show that the witpess is here without any expense to himsdlf.” Morris said that he and Hutton had, thelr meals served in their room because’ they feared that some one would shoot them If they went to the public; dining- om., In answer to the interrogations of Bpencer, Morris said that he had seen Rev. Mr. S8immons, who was raported to have aided in securing the confessions of Hutton and Morris, but once since his last arrival in Alturas, and that Simmon: had not talked to him regarding the cas: He was asked If, in the presence of his mother in the hotel, he had not raised his hand and said: ‘So help me God, 1 don’t know anything about the lynch- ing.” Morris replied he had not made that or any similar statement. Loud objection was made to qusstion- ing on this line, on the ground that the defense was endeavoring to impeach the witness. ~The gquestion was asked in three or four different ways. Morris did say, however, that he had told his mother that he had no statements to make until he went before the Grand Jury. He was asked if he had ever talked with any one. about the case and ‘he replied ‘‘No.' whereupon the counsel inquired as. io how he had come to make a signed state- ment. Morris declared that he had vol- unteered to make a statement to Attor- neys Post and Boyd on the evening uf his arrival at Alturas and that he had commenced the recital of the events con- cerning the lynching some time after 5 o'clock the next morning, the statement being taken down by a stenographar. He was asked if he had read it since and re- plied “Nary a time.” Court Warns Attorney. During this part of the examination liar,” To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablets.

The Judge said: “I have a commitment prepared against you and the first thing you know I will send you to jail for the full extent of the law—five days.” Spencer asked Morris if he remembered certain testimony that he had given in court last week, to which the prosecution objected, saying that the record was the JANUARY 16, 1902 RARE SILVER COMING WITH THE PRINGE Kaiser Selects Treasures for the Royal Yacht. German Officers Eager to Accompany Henry of ° Prussia. i Elaborate Banquet to Be Given on the Emperor’s Craft in Return for the Courtesies of Americans. ——— BERLIN, Jan. 17.—The latest arrange- ments in connection with the visit of Ad- miral Prince Henry of Prussia'to the TUnited States is that the Prince. will meet the imperial yacht Hohenzollern at Hamp- | ton Roads and sail thence to New York. Elaborate preparations are being made for. soclal entertainments on board the Hohenzollern. By the Emperor's specfal order a splendid silver service has been sent to Kiel from the royal silver treas- ures in the Old Schloss. His Majesty per- sonally inspected the treasures and se- Jected the service which is to be used on board the Hohenzollern on special oc- casions. Emperor Willlam’s programme is that Prince Henry shall reciprocate the’ New | York and Washington festivities with“a grand banquet on -board the Hohenzollern, inviting the President, the members of the Cabinet and others. The curator of | the silver treasures goes to the United States on the Hohenzollern to take care of- the valuable wares. Admiral Count von Bauddissin, who is to command the Hohenzollern on her forthcoming visit to New York, arrived here yesterday. He will go to Potsdam to see his Majesty prior to sailing for the| United States. Admiral Count von Bauq‘- dissin, after receiving Emperor William's personal instructions, returned to Kiel. Later in the day it was announced that the Government had decided that Prince Henry shall sail for the United States on the Kron Prinz Wilhelm of the North German Lloyd line February 15. Cabins have been engaged for a suite of fifteen persons. The vessel, though taking other assengers, will first touch at Newport ews, where Prince Henry and his party wihl be transferred to the Hohenzollern, which is_going theré and not to Hobo- ken, N. J. The movements of the yacht thereafter have not been absolutely determined upan. The present programme is to ascend the Potomac River to Washington, where Prince Henry will exchange calls with President Roosevelt. - Prince Henry and the President may then go to the launch- ing together. This. portion of the pro- gramme will depend, of course, on its ac- ceptance at Washington. Officers Seek Assignment. German naval officers are eager for as- signments to accompany Prince Henry to the United States and many young noble- men are bringing influence to bear to ob- tain appointments for this duty. The list of possible appointments is aiready sev- eral times larger than the suite which can be sent with Prince Henry. This pressure to secure places may cause the Prince’s suite to be enlarged. The lack of aceom- modations for a number of persons on board_the Hohenzollern is the real reason -why Prince Henry does not sail on the imperial yacht. Emperor William has occasionally told Americans that he would like to visit the United States and he still desires to do so. But there is not the least probability of his gratifying this desire as reasons of state imperatively forbid his leaving Ger- many for the period of time required to go to the United States, just as the dutles of President Roosevelt would prevent him from visiting Germany. \ Embassador Is Notified. ‘WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.—Dr. von Hol- leben, the German Embassador at Wash- ington, to-day recelved a _cablegram from Berlin giving the dates of arrival and de- parture of Prince Henry and a list of the party who will_accompany him to the United States. Prince Henry will arrive on the Kron Prinz Wilhelm on February 22 and will sail for Germany on the Ham- burg-American liner Columbia March 8. He will be accompanied by Hofmarschall, Vice Admiral von Seckendorff and two aids-de-camp, Lieutenant Commanders Schmidt von Schwind and Von Egidy. His chief physician will be Dr. Rench. Herr von Tirpitz, the German Secretary of State for the Navy, with his aid-de- camp, Lieutenant Commander von Tro- tha, will also accompany the party. Em- best evidence as to what the witness had testified and that the record should be |- read to him. Raker declared that Morris’ testimony then was diametrically oppo- site to his testimony on tie stand to-day. Spencer claimed that a reading of the record to him would be for the education of the witness, The court ordered Spencer to proceed on some other line and ordered the re- porter to supply the defense by to-morrow morning with the transcript of that por- tlon of Morris’ evidence Into which it wished ‘to inquire. Raker caused another disturbance by asking: “Won't the witness be all fixed up by to-morrow morning?”’ The court ordered him to stop making such offensive remarks. Morris was asked if the men hanged were his enemies, He replied “No,” and said that Calvin Mall was a friend of his father's. He was asked if it jarred him to participate in the hanging, to which question an objection was made and sus- tained. “Did you make your statement with the same indifference that you hanged-the men?” he was asked, * ‘No, sir; T did not,” was his reply. This question was objected to and Spen- cer sald: “If a man has no regard for life, he has no regard for truth; that's wp}v we ask.” ‘It 1t required so little persuasion to ‘hang five men,” Spencer asked, “‘would 1t {fizltllr:,n lmi‘:{ ?ora 1.% mak?l a statement an| e !flendl?’s g ve other men—your This was _objected to. Judge Harring- ton called Spencer’s attention to the fact that his query was not proper in a cross- examination; that it had a subtle sophis- tr}v in it-and was ambiguous.

An incident that occurred during _the examination of Morris to-day mlg lead to serious trouble. Morris, in testifying that he had made his confession at 5 o'clock In the morning, explained that he had been aroused by Durfee, a friend of the prosecution, shortly before that hour and escorted to Post's room. A young woman stenographer was there to take down the confession. _After this testi- mony had been given Spencer twice made scurrilous remarks regarding the pres- ence of the young lady in the room. To- night these remarks were the talk of the town. It is believed they will not be per- mitted to pass unchalle: , and it expected that an ed of the attorney. peror William will send his adjutant gen- eral, General von Plessin, Captain of the Navy von Mueller and Von Grumme, ald-de-camp to the Emperor. Prince Henry will have his own retinue of ser- ants and each of the gentlemen of the party will bring his own ' valet. Secretary Long to-day called Rear Ad- miral Robley D. Evans into consultation respecting_the coming visit to the United States of Prince Henry of Germany. The rear admiral has not ¥‘et been given writ- ten orders detailing him to act as the representative of the navy at the recep- tion, but that matter has been agreed upon, and Secretary Long to-day charged Admiral Evans with the preparation of a naval ?rom‘&mme for the reception. In view of the number of distinguished offi- cers who are now reported to be about to accompany the Prince on his visit, it is evident that Admiral Evans will require the assistance of a number of junior offi- cnax'l.l They will be detalled as occasion requires. o far the State Department is not offi- clally advised of the approaching visit of the Prince, hence it has done nothing toward arranging a programme for his reception and entertainment. NEW YORK, Jan. 15.—Mayor Low has taken up the consideration of plans for the reception of Prince Henry of Prussia. He announced to-day that he would name @ large and representative committee of leading citizens to arrange for the wel~ come of the distingulshed. visitors. In case the Prince comes here by steamer, a pler will be specially reserved as a land- ing place. LONDON, Jan. 15.—The Candid Friend, a weekly nmewspaper, claims to be in a position_to make the announcement that should Prince Henry’s visit to the United States be as successful as expected, Em- peror William himself will visit America in the autumn with the Hohenzollern and a large escort of warships.

Hope to Hear Soon That Warship Reached Hono- lulu Under Sail. Special Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B. C., Jan. 15.—While -there | is much apprehensign for the safety of the sloop of war Condor of the British fleet In the North Pacific, which sailed | from. Esquimalt on December 2 and was| scheduled to arrive at Honolulu on De- cember 13, officers of the warships in port advance explanations of her delay by say- ing that, as 8 oftefi the case, she is prob- ably sailing instead of steaming to the! 18lands, and, as she has a scant supply of | canvas-in comparison with a salling ves- | sel and-is handicapped by her screw, she | would make a slow passage. None of rha‘ officers believe the vessel to be lost, but | there is considerable uneasiness. This is | due to the fact that she sailed on the eve of the heavy southeast gale, in which | the collier Matteawan foundered and the | flagship Warspite, which passed out a| few hours before her, had a trying time, | one of her nine-pound guns being loosened | and causing a commotion by rolling about | the decl. | There is no news whatever of the Con- | dor since she left the straits, after spend- | ing a few hours at gun practice in the | Royal roads on the afternoon of Decem- | ber 2. The last advices were received from Honolulu_under ‘date of January 3. The warship Had not arrived there on that date. The mail due at 'San Francisco is ;agerly awaited by officers of the fleet | ere. If the sloop of war is lost, her fate will involve the death of more than one hun- | dred and forty men.” Not since the Or-| pheus ran down the steamer Pacific at the mouth of the straits many years ago | has there been such heavy loss of life. ! The Condor was the smallest of the ves- | selz, other than the tofpedo-boat destroy- ers, on this station. She was of %080 tons and was high fore and aft and low amid- ships, with well decks lilke a passenger | steamer. Captain Fleet of H. M. 8.

A Simple Interanemedy Makes Remarkable Cures of Catarrh, People who have used sprays, Inhalers, salves and washes for catarrh and have found how useless and inconvenient they are, will be agreeably surprised at results following the Catarrh Tablets, which they sell at 50 cents for full sized treatment, Is the safest, most ef- fective and popular of all catarrh remedies. Nearly all cheap cough mixtures and throat lozenges contain opiates; these cheap medicines give a temporary rellef, especially with little children, by destroying nerve sensation; the ir- ritation in throat, which causes coughing, Is | temporarily removed, not by removing the cause, but by deadening the nerves of feeling. The irritation is not felt, although It is still there and will promptly return.

Dr. Ramsdell in commenting on catarrh cures says: “I can heartily recommend Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, because they contain mo co- calne nor other dangerous drug found in so many advertised catarrh cures. I have known of many cases of long standing catarrh of the head and throat completely cured by the daily use of these tablets for several weeks. One case in particular, which I could not reach with an inhaler or spray and where the catarrh caused daily headaches and a noticeable loss of hearing, was entirel ired by this harmless ‘but effective remedy.' Dr. Wainwright says: “I never hesitate to prescribe Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets for catarrhal headaches and catarrhal deafness because I know them to be perfectly safe for child or adult and have seen many remarkable cures resulting from their regular daily use; because they are advertised and sold in drug storés 1s no reason why any good physician should not use them, because we should seize upon the means of cure wherever found.” Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are especially valu- able for catarrhal colds in children because fhey are pleasant to the taste and may be used freely to break up severe colds and croup at Very 3 All druggists sell the remedy at fifty cents for full sized e. s Hitle book on cause and_cure of catarrh malled free by addressing the F.
