Special Dispatch ‘o The Calil, USTIN, Tex., Jan. 30.—A dispatch from Monterey, Mexico, says that the members of the American colony of that city are greatly aroused over the recent arrest of Dr. Phillip Carroll, who is Dep- uty Consul General of the Un ited States. It is stated that he was forcibly taken to the penitentiary and ‘confined there in a room for several hours with prisoners convicted of mur- der. It is further asserted thgt Dr. Carroll was arrested on a trumped-up charge of assault, a criminal charge being the only kind under which a consular officer could be arrested. old Mexican servant who had the head.

During tnat time his wife and children have spent most of the time in the streets. Last night Mrs. Smythe, leading her two children by the hand, met Sergeant Christiansen and told him her pitiful story. She had been standing in a drench- ing rain nearly four hours. The police of- ficer visited the house and found Smythe there. The place as in a condition of utter ruin. Windows had been broken, doors torn from their fastenings, furni- ture wrecked and dishes broken. ‘Will Adjust Union’s Accounts. W. E. Klapetsky, general secretary and treasurer of the National Barbers’' Asso- clation, afrived in this city yesterday to adjust the financial accounts of the lo- cal Barbers Union, which were disar- ranged by the embezzlement of Secretary Less.

Dr. Bergman lectured on “Marriage and Intermarriage” last even- Ing to a large auc.ence at the Geary- street Synagogue. Rabbi Bergman, who is a thorough stu- dent of theology and philosophy, treated the subject in a most convincing manner. He said: In France and in the larger cities of Burope there is a vulgar prejudice against the old matrimonial system. Marriage, the inexor- able law of nature, the foundation of all social and moral development, the loftiest institu- tion for all mankind. they declare irrational and a fallure. Modern philosophers and pey- chologists even attempted to destroy the idyliic home of family life by terming marrlage ‘‘The grave of love and affection.’” It is not good that man should be alone, they argue, does not necessarily require the epiritual union through the priest at the nup- tial altar. Here again, In this blessed country of freelom, the old and sacred adage ‘Mar- riages are made in heaven,” as a general rule, are being made by the telephone. The charming tones of the most exalted song that stizred the heart and soul of the Ameri- can people, ‘‘Home, Sweet Home,” can often be heard by those who seil thelr honmor, con- sclence and virtue for money or passion. The fragrant flowers that were culled from the garden of matrimony called love, sympathy, kindness, reverence and affection, have at this age of materialism been substituted by the lust for nice adornment and luxurious display in their pariors. But, alas, these are mistakes which insist upon payment. Those that de- grale the sacredness of the sweet, romantic illusion ‘of true love by egotistic purposes have written their verdict with thelr own hands. There are other cases in matrimgnial life that are of so delicate a nature that I dare not touch upon them wijth more than a word. We often observe marrfages whose charactcr, creed and race are so differently molded thai after a year or two, when the perfume of the orange blossoms has wafted away, become aliens to each other. But can these individ- 1ls accuse Providence for the unhappiness of siter vears? It would certainly be unsafe (o make those kind of unions the schools of moral- ity. We, to Whom the noblest traits of virtus have been Intrusted by divine law and sealed with the finger of God, ‘‘therefore shall man ieave his father and mother and ehall cleave unto his wife,”” which unequivocally means his lega! wife assigned to him by providence, ought to consider it a fortunate chance and ought to show ourselves worthy of the blessings which marriage has alded in finding the one and only woman, the bne and only man on this' globe to make up the full measure of thelr lives. We ocught not to forget that the heart fire kindled at the nuptial altar is but the begin- ning of true love and fidelity that epring from the throne of heaven and are finding their way into conjugal purity and holiness, OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Several Changes Made in the Postal Service and More New Pensions Granted.

The Law and Order League at a meeting last night at the Academy of Sciences launched a movement against the reopen- of Ingleside racetrack. Condemnatory res- olutions were adopted, and a committee of five was appointed to appear before the Supervisors next Monday, and at any adjourned meeting at which the Lynch bill may be a subject for consideration, and oppose the passage of that measure. The resolutions, which were offered by J. W. Rogers and adopted by . practical- ly unanimous rising vote, were as follows: Whereas, The attempt is again being made to reopen tho Ingleside racetrack, which hither- to has been o baneful In its ‘influence upon the men and morals of this city and com- munity, and speclally hurtful to the young men of San Francisco, in setting before them the direct and immediate temptation of race- track gamblins; and Whereas, The only argument offered for the reopening of this iniquitous place is the so- called financial interests of its promoters and such as expect to live and thrive off its gam- biing; and ‘Whereas, The renewed attempt at opening is now before our honorable Board of Supervisors in the form of what is known as the proposed Lynch_bill, which provides for a od of sixty days’ racing in any one year, and which is to be acted on by sald board on Monday next, February 3, 1802; and Whereas, Said bill, if passed, would be in substance what thousands of our best citizens, time and again, have vigorously opposed cause it would open the gates to all the evil and pernicious influences of racetrack gam- bling in our midst; and ‘Whereas, The support of sald bill is being drawn largely from the elements who care more for gambling and the things which make for violation of law than for the things which make for the best home life and morals of our city as also its best financial interests; therefore, be. it * Resolved, That we the members and friends of the Law and Order League, in annual cor- vention assembled, record our public protest to_the passage of the proposed Lynch bill. ‘Resolved, That we appoint a committee of five of our members to present this protest be- fore the Board of Supervisors at its meet. ing Monday next, or at adjourned meetings when sald bill may come up for consideration; an, Resolved, That we urge the members of this committee to secure the co-operation and per- Eonal presence at eaid meeting of ethers who are opposed to sald bill. The Rev. Dr. H. H. Bell, chairman of the meeting, appointed on the committee of five the Rev. Dr. J. N. Beard, the Rev. Dr. J. S. Thomas, I. J. Truman, the Rev. Dr. F. A. Doane and J. W. Rogers. The business meeting of the league and the consideration of the Ingleside matter was preceded by a lecture by President. David Starr Jordan of Stanford Univer- sity on “Short Cuts to Happiness.” Among the forms of dissipation condemned by President Jordan was gambling, to which he paid his respects in unsparing terms, The annual election of officers closed the | meeting of the league.

Dwyer was sim- ply placing the commission at the request Iur Lewis. The person to whom the task of placing the commission was delegated became a bit wary of putting up that amount of money without first finding out whether or not Lewis had the amount to his credit in the bank, so he called on the cashier and found that the plunger had been to the bank that morning and drawn out his funds. The money was not sent to Hot Springs and nobody lost any cash. Dwyer is now | thanking his lucky stars that the friend to whom he assigned the task of placing the commission was a man of caution. If the money had been wired to Hot Springs Dwyer would have had to make it good. —_———— EXPECTORATION ORDINANCE TO BE RIGIDLY ENFORCED Owing to Complaints Made to Him Chief Wittman Issues an Order. For a long time what is known as the expectoration ordinance has been practi- cally a dead letter, but Chlef Wittman has determined to see that it is rigidly enforced. Complaints have been received by him from the California Club and other organizations on the subject and yester- day he lssued the following order: To Company Commanders: Numerous com- plaints are made to me about the lack of en- forcement of what is known as expectoration ordinance (order No. 3063). especially that sec- tion of the ordinance which forblds expectorat- ing upon a public sidewalk. Instruct the members of your command to strictly enforce this ordiance and to make re- ports in writing of all arrests made for violat- ing it, and also of the disposition of the cases in the Police Courts, giving the number of the court. Such reports to be compiled by you and sald compilation forwarded to me at the end of each week. Heretofore complaint has been made by the officers that the Police Courts did not sustain them when making such arrests, and by this system of reports we will be able to fix the re- =ponsibility.

Mrs. Lovell White, for many years president of the California Club, relin- quished her leadership of that exclusive woman’s organization yesterday by re- signing her office. Her action has cre- ated consternation in the ranks of the members and every effort will be made to dissuade her from quitting the club.

As Mrs. White was ex officlo a member of the delega- tion, she found she could not abide by these instructions and therefore handed in_her resignation. o In explanation of her action Mrs. ‘White states that the California Club was organized to do practical work, and while the discussion of the race question and other ethical questions were in its prov- ince, the members were expected to direct their energies to more practical matters. She said the club on January 21 in- structed its delegation to the coming con- vention to vote in favor of admitting col- ored clubs to the General Federation of Women’'s Clubs, and as a delegate she must accept these instructions or resign.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—To-day's ses- sion of the Senate was entirely void of the tumultuous scenes which characterized the sessions of the past three days. After the Philippine tariff measure was taken up at 2 o'clock, Tillman délivered a speech devoted almost entirely to discussion of the part his State took in the war of the independence of the colonies. Incident- ally he referred occasionally to the pend- ing bill, drawing morals, as he said, for the benefit of the majority, that they might be applied to the Phlli?plnu. Among the bills passed were the follow- ing: Adding $1,500,000 to the cost of the public building at San Francisco; to in- crease .the limit of cost of the public bullding at Butte, Mont., from $225000 to $400,000; to provide for the establishment of a light and fog _signal station on one of the mile rocks, Francisco Bay; to establish a fog bell and lens lantern light on the southeastern end of Southampton shoal, San Francisco Bay; to establish a light and fog signal at a point on Car- quinez Strait, California, opposite that now occupled by the Selby Smelting ‘Works; for the construction of a light- ship for Blunt's reef, Pacific Ocean, off Cape Mendocino; to establish a fog sig- nal at Fort Winfield Scott,* Fort int, California; fixing the compensation of district superintendents in the life-saving service at $2000 per annum; appropriating $100,000 for the erection of a public bufld- ing at Evanston, Wyo.; granting to the State of Wyoming 50,000 acres of non-min- eral land to aid in the continuation, en- largement and maintenance of Wyoming's State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Home; provid- ing that bona fide settlers in forest re- serves may make good their claims to land in certaln cases: granting to the State of Idaho 50,000 acres of land to aid in the continuation, enlargement ana maintenance of the Idaho State Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Home.
