VACAVILLE, April 10.—Late this after- | moon the Rev. M. V. Donaldson, the ac- cused pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church here, had not departed from the town, elthough strenuously instructed to Go so before many bours. The people appear to be in no mood for trifling, and have decided to rid themselves of the clergyman by whatever methods he may cause them to adopt. The revelations of yesterday and to-day have stirred a tremendous sensation, and will be the subject of investigation by e Rev. John Coyle, who is the presid- ing elder. Since he came here last fall, Donald- son’s conduct has not been all ¢he mem- bers of his congregation had hoped for end desired. There was much gossip and lately his actions have been ciosely watched. Incident at Elmira. Some time ago he was found in com- pany with a woman in a deserted.car bloom, and on all sides of the little town there were acres and acres of flowers. The early trains brought a number of visitors, among them a delegation from the Californfa Floral Soclety of San Francisco. A reception committes of ladles and emen, appointed by the Campbell ettt .. at Elmira. On that occasion he was told to cease his attentions in that direction. This he apparently did, for little was again heard of the matter until it was revived Tuesday night. Several members of his flock discovered that he had persuaded a young woman member of the church choir to enter the parsonage, which is unoccupled, under cover of darkness. When called upon to deliver her over to friends, he denied her presence there. The services of the Town Constable were called in, but Donaldson dared him to enter without a warrant, | which the local Justice of the Peace re- { fused to issue without further evidence. it was not until nearly 1 o'clock a. m. that the girl was taken from the parson- age by friends.

Special Dispatch to The Call, NAPA, April 10.—Mrs, Jacob Baumann, a guest at Napa Soda Springs, a resort seven miles from this city, was the victim of a horrible accident at that place | ‘Wednesday night by being fatally burned in flames which ignited her clothing. | The unfortunate woman was supposed | to have been carrying a candle, which she dropped, and this probably set fire! to_ her clothes. The accident occurred about 8 o'clock and Mrs. Baumann lived until 4 o'clock Thursday morning, when death ended her sufferings. Mrs. Baumann was the wife of a promi- nent merchant of San Francisco and aged | 55 years. She came to the springs about a | week ago for her health and was accom- panfed by her physician. Dr. A. 8. D.| Faschian. She had apartments in the | Bellevue building at the Springs. Wednes- | day evening she was apparently in the | best of spirits and went down to the din- ing hall for her dinner, something she was not always able to do. At the con- clusion of a hearty repast, she rgturned | to her rooms at the Bellevue. About 8 o'clock, as Dr. Faschian was enjoying the evening air on the veranda, plercing eries for help and agonizing shrieks suddenly eame from within the building. The outcry was heard all over the place and every one rushed to the spot, fearing that the large hotel was afire, for a bright light could be seen through the windows and doorway. Dr. Faschian was the first on the scene and there in the main hallway, a few feet | from the entrance, he found Mrs. Bau- mann writhing on the floor in a mass of flames. He hastily threw his overcoat over her and rushed into a bedroom for blankets and spreads. Mrs. Charles H. Jackson, who was nearby, hurried in and bundled about the unfortunate woman the heavy cloak she was wearing. Mrs. Bau- mann's clothing, even to her shoes, was entirely consumed and her body was com- pletely blistered, being charred in many places. A How the fire which caused the fatality originated was at first a mystery, but it was learned this afternoon that before she died Mrs. Baumann told Dr. Faschian that she had dropped the candle she was carrying in the'toilet-room and had picked it up again. It doubtless brushed against her skirts. he said that trusts, if they work at all, must work under the law, has at- tracted wide attention at the capital and is regarded by many public men as a di- rect shot at the beef trust. 3 There is general approval of his sfate- ment: “The nation should exercise over combinations cautiously, but fir‘mly."the power of supervision and regulation. Representative Richasdson, leader of the minority in the House, said of the Presi- dent’s reference to trusts: “That is good Democratic doctrine and if the President wishes any assistance in the line he sug- gests he can count on every member of the Democratic party in Congress. The worst of all of these trusts at present is | the beef trust, and we shall push the reso- lution now pending in the House with all | of our force.” Senator Patterson said: “I believe in the widest publicity in all of these mat- ters. If the charges against the beef trust are well founded, as no doubt they are; it cannot be officially investigated too quickly.” Representative McClellan President means the beef other harmful combination in his speech, he will get all of the assistance he needs from the Democrats.” Representative Sulzer said: ‘The beef trust is the meanest of all the trusts and affects every citizen in the land. The men in this combination to rob the poor are engaged in an atrocious conspiracy and should be prevented by the Attorney General of the United States and the At- torneys General of all the- States which have enacted anti-trust laws. The beef trust is violating the United States anti- trust laws and the anti-trust law of the State of New York. The proof is conclu- sive and the officials should be forced by ublic opinion to do their duty. I am Reartily in favor of Thayer's resolution. It will receive my support.” Representative Underwood said: heartily in sympathy with Thayer’'s reso- lution. I think of all trusts the one that is the most dangerous is one that con- trols food products, and that it is the duty of Congress to investigate the mat- ter at once and give the relief needed.” SUMMERVILLE, S. . visit of ‘President Roosevelt and party to the South terminated here to-dav. No spectal prograie had been arranged. When the President came down stairs this morning he held an informal recep- tion in the hotel parlors and shortly after- ward, accompanied by most of his party, was taken for a drive to Dorchester, the site of the old Spanish fort. The tea farm of Dr. Shepherd, not far from the Inn, was next-visited, and as the President alighted from his carriage a number of diminutive negro pickers d: “If the fist. or any | I am | peertfly for your courtesy in coming forward | | been planned and the stay was brief, but the President saw enough of the industry to cause him to congratulate Dr. Shepherd on the work he is doing and to wish him every success. The party was then driven direct to the Southern station, where the special train was in waiting. A company of marines who had acted &s the Presi- dent’s guard while at Charleston and here were hined on the station piatform. Tre President thanked thém for theéir | services and expressed they had not participated in the Prince Henry ceremonies because, he sald, hLe was sure they would have made a fine appearance.

Through the fewns that his regret that the Presidential train passed of’thé return | journey crowds of cheering people lined the tracks to catch a glimpse Sk e veit. At Branchville, 8. C., a small station on | the Southern Railway where a stop was | made for water, the President came out on the rear platform and bowed his ac- knowledgments to the 300 people who rushed for his car and cheered him. Al- though no stop was made at Orangeburg, fully 1000 persons were waiting for the train. A crowd had gathered at the de- pot at Columbia and there was a rush for the President’s car. In the crowd were a number of students of the South Caro- lina College, who gave a strong college 1l. When a semblance of order was re- ored the President, who had been stand- ing on the platform with Mrs. Rooseveit, made a short speech. In the handshaking which followed the President noticed the jamming and push- ing going on, and when he grasped the outstretched hand of a little girl and said he was partial to children because he had a half dozen of them himself. Following is his speech in full: Ladies and Gentlemen: T thank you most to greet me this afternoon, and it is only one of the expressions of invariable courtesy with which I have been treated while in your great State. T have enjoyed every moment of the three days I have been down here. I think I was a pretty good American when I came down, but I am a better American as I leave your borders, and let me, in closing, ask you to suprort to the best of your ability the expo- sition in Charleston. I ask that not onmiy of you,- but of 2ll the people in the Union. It is a grand_tribute to the emergy, the forethought and the business enterprise of the people of Charleston that they have planned and built so beautiful an exposition and they deserve all the help they can possibly have in it. I wish them well, I wish you well, and I thank you for the way you have received me, Winnsboro and Chester, S. C., turned out immense crowds.. At the latter place, where a’ brief stop was made, the Presi- pulled out for | as follows: Ladies and Gentlemen: I want to thank |you. I want to thamk the people of both the Carolinas for the reception I have met | with to-day and during the two preceding days. I have appreciated to the fullest extent the hospitality of the people of Charleston and marveled at the beautv of thelr exposition. The. welcome that has been extended to me in your State will be an inspiration in my public jife, and I shall endeavor, men and women of this State, 0 to conduct myself always that you and all other Americans shall have reason to be satisfled with the way your affairs are managed. I thank you heartily and wish you well. I only hope that you have enjoyed hav- ing me here half as much as I have enjoyed being here. The 750 students and others at the Win- throp Female Academy at Rock Hill had requested the President to stop there if possible,~and when the train came ia sight the whole town was out. No stop was made, but the President gave them an oppertunity to see him by coming out on the platform as the train sped by. SALISBURY, N. C., April 10.—The first stop in the Tarheel State was at Char- lotte. The demonstration there was no less enthusiastic and hearty than in the Palmetto State. The President was forced to make a speech, in which he said: “I am very glad to have the chance of | greeting you to-night, to say how much I appreciate your having come.” “'Hnw about the Mecklenburg declara- tion?" The President—The Mecklenburg declar- { ation was all right. | Then, after a pause: *‘Some one in *he audience has spoken of the Mecklenburg declaration. That was the first declara- tion of independence in what are now the United States. To my good fortune, I have studied much of the early history of North Carolina. I know the part yoa played in the revolution; the part you played even during the revolution in win- ning the great West for the republic. I feel that you deserve to be called in a peculiar sense Americans of America and no higher praise than that can be given in our country. I have appreelated great- ly the greetings I have received, not merely in South Carolina, but from the representatives of vonr State*who were there also. It has been to me a privilege to meet you.
