WIFE SHOOTS WOr1AN WHO, SHE CLAIMS, RUINED HER HOME Mrs. Irene Marsh Attacks Miss Alice Murray in the Vestibule of the Alhambra Theater and Makes Her a Target for Four Shots, One of Which Inflicts a Wound on the Latter’s Forehead iy RS. IRENBE MARSH, wife of J. W. Marsh, a Market-street cigar dealer, fired four shots from a revolver at Miss Alice Murray yesterday afternoon in the vestibule of the Alhambra Theater, one of the bullets taking effect in the left side of the forehead and inflicting a se- vere flesh wound. Mrs. Marsh claims she was driven to sheer desperation by her husband’s at- tentions to the Murray woman, who, she says, separated her husband from her about a year ago. The shooting occurred about 2 o’clock, but luckily there was no. body in the vestibule of the theater the time but the jealous wife and her victim. The first three bullets went wide of their intended mark, but the last one plowed its way along the side of Miss Murray’s forehead fully two inches and left a deep gash. The weapon used was of 32 caliber and of ch The M and af who was laboring und vous strain, became hysts The victim w ide the theater, where she intended going when Mrs. Marsh shot her, and a physician was im- mediately summoned.

Marsh was then taken to the Hall of Justice, where_she related a pitiful story to Cap- tain of Detectives John Martin. WOMAN COMES BETWEEN THEM.

Mrs. Marsh's statement Martin is as follows: “‘My name is Mrs. Irene Marsh and I reside at 544 Turk street. I shot the woman because she separated me from my husband. 1 went to her and pleaded with her to leave him alone, but she paid no attention to my entreatles. I did not know what 1 was doing. I was simply driven to despair. I am a good, bard-working woman, and since my hus- band left me about a year ago I have tried hard to get along peaceably and forget my troubles. But I couldn't. They proved too great for me to bear. “The shooting occurred just inside the vestibule of the theater. "I don’t know how many times I fired the revolver. I never had one in my hands before in my life. My husband kept 2 saloon in Sac- ramento and we were getting along hap- piiy when this woman came between us. Clief Sullivan of Sacramento knows me and he can vouch for my reputation. “When my husband came to this city he opened a cigar stand in front of the Cafe Royal. The woman used to go with my husband’s brother. He was good-looking, but poor, and she shook him for my husband because my husband had money. For the last year my hus- band bas not lived with me. I have only seen him a few times, and as everybody knows the character of that woman it drove me nearly crazy. Their actions caused me many a heartache. To think after all these years of hard work and saving to accumulate money she should come between us. I'm sorry now. It's all over and I hope she won't die. I wish I had dled before all this trouble came into my life.” FRIENDS NOT SURPRISED. SACRAMENTO, Aug. 13—The an- nouncement that Mrs. Irene Marsh had shot at Miss Alice Murray in San Fran- the Murray Sacramento, to Captain N his | —3 cisco this afternoon created no surprise here among those acquainted with the circumstances leading to the occurrence. Mrs. Marsh is the wife of John Mars one of the owners of the well-known L fayette saloon in this city. Marsh had always borne an excellent reputation here, and with his wife lived happily in a handsome home in a fash- ionable district, until he became infatu- Ated with Alice Murray, whom he had met in Sacramento. All his wife's and friends’ pleadings had no effect upon him, and the result was that he and his wife separated, Marsh dividing with her his praperty Interests. ime and again after this incide Marsh and his wife became recorfvl:(lllte'zllf only to separate again, and only a week or 'so ago, aided by mutual friends, he endeavored to have his wife go East with ;‘[":ll so, that ho could escape from the pell of the young woman wh in the dolmesucx trouble. 2. fatend any times, it is said, Mrs. M. clared to frierds here that her h;‘x:ls};n?l?; conduct with Miss Murray was driving her crazy, that she still loved her hus- band devotedly and that she knew she would some day do a desperate deed, In which herself or her husband or Miss Murray or all three would suffer. Mrs. Marsh is regarded here as a woman of Irreproachable character. : @ il et @ CORONADO IS FIRST AT VALLEJO MEETING After Losing One Heat He Takes the Next Three and the Race—Billy Lyons a Winner. VALLEJO, Aug. 13.—Business through- out this city was generally suspended to- day and people turned out in large num- Lers to attend the fair and races. The exhibit at the pavilion grows more at- tractive from day to day, owing to addi- tions thereto. The presénce of the U. S. €. Independence band in the evening proves an additional feature of interest. The trotting race was for the largest purse of the meeting and was won by the favorite, Durfee’s Coronado, in three straight heats, after he had lost the first. The running races were sharply contest. ed. The three-mile bicycie race attracted many wheelmen. The winners were: Robert Bruce, first prize, $20; C. M.

United States Fails After Long Effort at Extra- dition. Warrant Issued for Men Accused of -Participation in Gigantic Harbor Frauds Is Declared to Lack an Essential Feature. QUEBEC, Aug. 13.—Colonel John F. Gaynor and Captain Benjamin D. Greene scored a decisive victory to-day in their! fight against extradition to the United} tion with alleged frauds i harbor work for the Federal Government, involving millions of dollars.—-. Judge Caron, in the Superior Court, dis- Sheriffs Langelier of Quebec and Valee of Montreal, in whose official care they had been since their sensational arrest in Que- bec last Mn‘fin A large ndmber of the prisoners’ friends were in the courtroom and they heartily congratulated the two men upon their re- lease. Colonel Gaynor and Captain Greene left the courtroom soon after Judge Ca- Colonel Gaynor, who is suffering from Theumatism, retired to his room. It is understood that the to a late hour no step had been taken by counsel representing the Washington au- thorities. WARRANT IS ILLEGAL. Judge Caron, who spoke in French, oc- | cupied about_two hours in delivering his { judgment. In reviewing the legal pro- | ceedings since the arrest of the two pris- | oners he pointed out that their counsel | had raised an important question to the | effect that the warrant issued by Magis- trate Lafontaine was illegal on the ground ‘ that it did not contain the date nor the | year in which the alleged offense had been | committed. He could not presume when tme offense was committed, and it may have been previous to_the signing of the | treaty between the United States and Great Britain, and if so the accused could | not be held, as the treaties had no retro- active effect. According to the deposition made in Montreal by Erwin, counsel for the United States in May last, continued Judge Ca- ron, the accused were charged with fraud committed on or about January 1, 1897. That crime was not included in the treat- ies, and that of receiving money under false pretenses was only included in the treaty of 1900. This was fatal to the pros- ecution, and the warrant issued by Judge Lafontaine was defective, as the offense included therein did not fall under the ex- tradition treaty; consequently the arrest | was illegal and the accused must be set at liberty. After citing authorities in support of the decision, Judge Caron con- | cluded as follows: H REASONS FOl. DECISION. Considering that the warrant in virtue of { which the petitioners are detained contalns no date of the commission of the offense whereof the petitioners are accused; consider- ing that in virtue of the treatles of extradi- tion existing between Great Britain and the United States, it is positively provided that | these treaties shall have no retroactive ef- | fect for offenses committed before their pass- | age; considering that the allegation of the ate of the commission of the offense is, ‘in consequence, essential to give jurisdiction of the Commissioner to. issue a warrant of _ar- rest; considering, furthermore, that it is mot Alleed In the warrant that the offense for which sald warrant has been issued is one of oriminal _ particivation, punishable by _the Jaws of both countries, which is a condition required by the last paragraph of the first article of the treaty of 1890; considering that the information, indictments and true bills and all documents produced for the i:sue of the warrant show that the offenses of which the petitioners are charged and for which they would have to stand their trials in the United States, should extradition be granted, are not within the terms of the treaties of | extradition between Great Britain and the Thited States, and disclose no offense com- mitted by the prisoners for which they could be extradited under the said treaties; con- sidering, in conseaquence, that the warrant of | arrest lasued by the said Ulric Lafontaine in | his above-stated capacity is null and {lle- | gal mnd could not warrant the arrest of the | Petitioners, the court rejects the sald motion | Dt ihe United States, intervening party, to | Ouash the said writs of habeas corpus ' ad-| dressed by me on June 21 last to the said C. | A.

A®%aiee, Jailer of Montreal, and of Charles fangelier, Sheriff of Quebec, who have pres- ent custody of them: and this ogder will be the warrant for the said C. A. Valee and of Charlas Langelier for the compiete and imme- diate release of the prisoners. fhedis oatiis OFFICIALS ARE SILENT. Attorney General Declines to Com- ment on the Quebec Decision. DUXBURY, Mass., Aug. 13.—The deci- sion of Judge Caron of Quebec releasing Benjamin D. Greene and John F. Gaynor Wwas shown to Solicitor General Richards at his summer home here to-day. He ex- pressed no surprise at the action which had been taken, and said that he would not at this time enter into a discussion of the case or express an opinion as to the attitude of Judge Caron. He would say that if there were any technical de- fects in the warrant these could be easily corrected by the United States Govern- ment, and having done this the Govern- ment would renew its efforts to get the two men back into this country for trial. | Richards said that in his own mind he | had formed an opinion as to the standing of the men in the light of the law, for it had been part of his duty to argue the original case, that against Captain Car- ter, in its sevéral stages until it was be- fere the Supreme Court. Captain Carter had been eonvicted and imprisoned. When it came to the cases of Greene and Gay- nor, he sald, there might be some ques- tion as to extradition under the treaty between the United States and Great | Britain, but if there was such a question this could be argued. He had no reason to belleve that under the treaty Greene and Gaynor should not be extradited. Assistant Attorney General Hoyt, who also is visiting here, would not comment on the release of Greene and Gaynor. BEVERLY, Mass., Aug. 13.—Attofney | General Knox was informed to-might of the release of Greene and Gaynor at Que- bec, and also was shown Judge Caron’s decision. ‘He read the latter carefully and then added: “I have nothing to say in regard to Judge Caron’s decision. It would be high- iy improper and extremely indelicate for me to make any comment on any decision | of a foreign court in which the United | States Government is involved, especially ADVERTISEMENTS. SECRETARY DOPP’S NARROW ESCAPE. Had Backache and Sleeplessness Caused by Catarrh of Kidneys—Pe-ru-na Cured. of the Kidneys and Don’t Know It. Raymond Dopp, Financial Secretary of the Catholic Mutual Benefit Association No. 42, writes from 275 Antoine street, De-! troit, Mich. “If you had seen me three years ago and then saw me to-day you would not wonder that I praise Peruna. At that time I was pale and emaciated from what fthe doctors called kidney and bladder trouble. My back ached, I could not prop- erly digest my food, my nights were made hideous with bad dreams, but Peruna changed all this. Less than a dozen bot- tles made a new and well man of me, and a ‘hundred times have I blessed you for having placed befgre humanity such a blessing to the sifk as Peruna.”—Ray- mord Dopp. Mrs. Frances Matoon, Treasurer of the Minneapolis Independent Order of Good Templars, writes from 12 Sixth street, Minneapolis, Minn., as follow! Last winter | had considerable irouble with my kidneys &rought on after a hard cold which | had neglected. One of my lodge friends who called when I was ill told me of a wonderful medicine called Peruna. I had po faith in it, but my husband purchased me bottle and g asked me to try it. It brought me most: satisfactory results. I used three bottles before I was completely cured, but I haves had good cause to be grateful, for not only did my kidney trouble disappear, but my general health improved and I have been In good health ever since. I would, not be without it for ten times its cost.”— Frances Matoon. This experience has been repeated many , times.

Special Dispatch to The Call CARSON, Nev., Aug. 13.—The stage for Tonopah which left Candelaria yesterday morning was held up at a point a half- mile from Tonopah at 11 o'clock last night. A highwayman had stretched a repe across the road and when the horses came to It they stopped. The bandit stepped into view and commanded the driver to throw off the express box. He complied with the order and the robber broke open the box and rifled it-of its ccntents. There were -no passengers aboard, and the robber allowed the stage to proceed after he had taken the ex- press. The driver lost no time in getting to Tonopah and reporting the holdup. ‘The Sheriff and a posse set out for the scene of the robbery. There was no dif- ficulty in finding the trail of the robber, who was tracked to the town of Tonopah. At present there is no clew as to the identity of the bandit.

Vessel Has Been Mod- ernized at Mare Island Yard. Special Dispateh to The Call. VALLEJO, Aug. 13—The cruiser Bos- tor has been recommissioned at the Mare Island Navy-yard. This vessel, built in the early eighties by John Roach, took a conspicuous part Dewey’s great victory in Manila Bay on May 1, 1898, and returned to Mare Island * in September, 189. Her officers and crew were accorded a reception In Vallejo that has never been equaled here. For nearly three years the Boston has been recetving a general overhauling. Her battery has been fitted with modern pivot mounts and all woodwork pessible has been removed. The most con- spicuous change in the Boston was that of lengthening the two masts. From 70 feeet they have been extended to 130 feet above the water. This has been done to accommodate the wireless tei- egraphy apparatus, part of which is lo- cated about the masthead. The Boston and the Philadelphia will leave this yard together within twenty- four hours and proceed to Bremerton, a full crew being divided between the two ships. When that port is reached the Philadelphia’s crew will be transferred to_the Boston and await salling orders. The officers who will sail on the Boston from_here are: Lieutenant Commander Charles Laird, Lieutenants R. B. Coontz and A. G. Kavanagh, Paymaster John Brooks, Ensigns T. Stitt, . H. Dodd, J. R.

How to buy furniture and carpets without ready money We will loan you tHe money for a regular banking rate of interest—six per cent. And you can pay us back little by little in unfelt amounts. Then you can g0 to one of the first-class furniture stores, with whom we have made special arrangements, where the stock is big and fresh and where satisfaction is certain, and when you have made your selection yoft can pay your bill in full with good, hard cash. Isn't this better than buying in the installment stores and being compelled to select your goods from smaller and inferior stocks? The installment stores charge you ten per cent above their cash prices when you ask for long credit. All you pay us is six per cent. For example: If your purchases amount to we will charge you $106.00—which is a six ,g‘:::: advance; then you pay us $20.00 cash and the balance in monthly payments amounting. to $8.60 each month 1f your purchases amount to $75.00 we will charge you $79.50; you make us a cash payment on this of $15.00 and pay the balance at the easy rate of $6.45 per month. You save four per cent.

Assistant | Attorney General Beck declined to com- | ment on the decision further than to say that he regretted it. Beck sent a telegram to the counscl for the Government at Quebec requesting the particulars In the case.
