AlmostConstantPain For Thirty Years. Dr. Miles’ Nervine Has Cured Me. There is nothing so good in cases of chronic headache as Dr. Miles’ Nervine, It restores the disordered merves to their nor- mal condition and banishes headache forever. “My trouble was headache, chronic so as to be almost continual. 1 had been in thiz condition ever since I could remember and 1 am now forty-seven years old. My father was a great sufferer from the same compiaint and my son has shown signs of similar affec- tion. When the attacks would appear, = stomach would often become affected and would grow dizzy and faint and often had to quit my work and lie down. Iam asta- tionary engineer and found it hard to hold a place with such & heavy handicap. About six years ago | began taking Dr. Miles’ Re- storative Nervine and since that time I have used i all, fourteen bottles. The number of bottles taken was not really rgumd as I think the cure was completely effected after taking the second bottle. ing SC y zeen the time in thirty years I was free from headache, I could not believe the perma. nent cure to be made so soon, so I continued its use until 1 was thoroughly convinced. Six persons to whom 1 have recommended the remedy have experienced equally gratifying results, the onn difference between their case and mine lying in the severity of the trouble cured-"—EpGar W.

At that time he was in good even though his plans to float a company did not materialize, and the idea of suicide never seems to have been in his mind W. A. Behrens of the Bella Vista T o- tel, San Francisco, told of his having seen in Howard with his papers and of his efforts to start a company. He saw him last on July 9 and then he had talked f going home to his family. To David Edwards of Piedmont, secretary for Henry Butters, with whom Captain How- ard had dealings, the dead man never appeared to be despondent and he was al- | ways in an optimistic mood, even when his reverses seemed greatest AUTOPSY SURGEON IN DOUBT. Dr. C. F. Gladding, the autopsy phys clan, described the wounds found on the head of the body. He was guarded in his statements as to the cause of the frac- tured skull. Whether it was the result |of an exterior blow, a fall or a pistol i\mn»: crushing through the skull, com- bined with the fall, he was not prepared to say. Either of the wounds, the pistol wound, or the fractured skull, was suf- | ficlent to cause death. In illustrating the position in which the body lay when he | found it, Dr. Gladding showed that the | pistol was hanging to the first finger of | the right hand, which was under the body, the body being on its face. The only new matter brought out was in the | testimony of A. W. Dutton, West Berke- | ley station agent for the Southern Pa-| cific Company, who said that a man an- swering Captain Howard’s description en- tered his office on July 17, between 3 and 4 | oclock, and asked when the last train left | for San Francisco. When informed that | it left at 11:2% o'clock, he went out and boarded the next train going to San Fran- cisco. This circumstance has a bearing »n the suicide theory, as showing the ir- resolute manner of the man in West | Berkeley. | The other witnesses were Mrs. Annie Wilson, who found the body; G. A. Carman, who talked with Howard the day before his death, and George Erick- son, whose testimony amounted to noth- 1 ————, | Father Gleason Resigns. | OAKLAND, July 27.—The Rev. | Gleason, assistant pastor of St. Mary's | Church of the Immaculate Conception, lhau resigned his position in order to ac- cept the rectorship of the church recently | 6edicated by Archbishop Montgomery at | Tomales.

Mott and | 2o 2008 RO8 T8 0m o move on W. 1. Sedgley, vice president and man- ager respectively of the defunct Intern: tional Explosives Company, who, he says, conspired to wipe the little town off the map one night last week at one fell swoop.’ The District Attorney of Contra Costa County was thunderstruck when Post- master Schmidt told him he wanted to have the alleged conspirators arrested for purloining the whole town. At first he wouldn’t believe it. He had heard of des- perate deeds done, but none of quite such gigantic proportions as this. When he finally recovered his breath he decided to take the matter under advisement until he could look up the law touching on such cases made and provided. Postmaster Schmidt stopped off at In- ternational, or rather what was Interna- tional, on his way back from Martinez and after a long search managed to find just a small portion of the former town. It was a board eight feet long, one inch thick and twelve inches wide. This Mr. Schmidt intends to keep as a souvenir. REACHES ALAMEDA. International spent part of to-day in Alameda and then moved on—that is as Not even the oldest inhabitant of In- a- | ternational could point with pride to the remnants of the roving little burg as it lay prostrate on the flat cars to-day, while men and teams labored and per- spired to help the town along to any old place where it could rest in peace and be out of the reach of people who might want to kidnap the village again. Piled indiscriminately on the cars was the ma- terial that composed the buildings of In- ternational when it resided in Contra Costa County and which gave to the place its habitations and a name. As the workmen pulled the stakes from the care some of International spread itself upon Alameda, but was soon gathered up and started on its journey out of this munici- pality, SCHMIDT'S ATTACHMENT. It was on the orders of Robert B. Mott of this city that International was taken in hand after the burg reached here and helped along to another locality. Mott was one of the owners of International when the village was located in Contra Costa and he still has an abiding inter- est in its affairs, although they are very unsettled at present. Schmidt also was s 4 “INTERNATIONAL,” AS IT NOW APPEARS, AND ALLEGED OWN- ERS, WHO SAY IT WAS STOLEN. -3 attached to the little town, his attach- ment taking the form of a mortgage of $2000. Schmidt traced International to Alameda and now he is after Mott for an | explanation. W. 1. Sedgley, also of this city, Is another whom Schmidt asserts was one of the prime movers in starting International on a journey, the end of which is problematical. Mott and Sedgley state that they acted on legal advice and on orders of the stockholders of the town in carrying In- ternational out of Contra Costa County and that the move was made for the tional Explosives Company, which cor- poration owned and controlled the vil- lage. MOTT’S EXPLANATION. Here is what Robert B. Mott, whom George Schmidt claims had something to do with giving International the hobo | habit, said to-night about the matter: Schmidt is mistaken when he says that I am responsible for the removal 1 was never at the place, and don't know | where it was. I am a director in the Interna- tional Explosives Company. The directors of that corporation held a meeting and decided |1t was 2o their interests to have the bulldings removed from the location in Contra Costa County. Being engaged In the building busi- ness. [ was requested to secure a man to su- pervise the moving of the buildings, and I got W. I Sedgley to boss the job. I never went | to International myself. Schmidt may believe | that he had a mortgage on the entire plant at | International, but he had no mortgage on the buildings. They were erected after he had se- cured the mortgage and under a decision of | the Supreme Court I think that it will be de- cided, if the matter Is ever tried in court, that Schmidt has no clalm whatever on the build- | ings. The board of directors which authoriz- ed the removal of the buildings is com- posed of P. E. White, H. C. Stillwell, Robert Mott, W. 1. Sedgley and Freder- | Ick Dassenville. They say the structures were worthless as they stood at Interna- tional, the plant having been abandoned. | Therefore the board decided to remove | the bulldings and put them up where | they could be made serviceable. | Besides the dismantled buildings, the | company's directors claim it has $5000 or $10,000 worth of chemicals on hand, and has other property which will total $20,- 000 in assets.

HONOLULU, July 2 The Home Rule county convention began its session to- day with almost a full attendance of dele- gates. The interest of the session to-day centered around the contest for presiding officer, for which a lively canvass had been made. The candidates for the posi- tion were ex-Delegate Wilcox and Kalau- okalani. The effectiveness of the prelimi- rary work done by the adherents of Ka- lauokalani was shown in the voting, the Wilcox forces being defeated. A lively discussion was caused by the introduction of a resolution excluding the public and a majority of the representatives of the press from the convention hail. The dele- gates who favored full publicity of the proceedings put up a vigorous fight and succeeded in defeating the resolution. —— PACIFIC CRICKETERS BEAT SANTA CRUZANS Match Played at Seashore Won by Narrowest Margin of Season. The Pacific cricket team returned from Santa Cruz yesterday, having won on Sun- day the closest contest of the present season by 2 runs. The visiting team played one man short, W. B. Kysh not being on hand. The Pacific team went to the bat first, the first half dozen men, with the exception of Wilding, making fair scores, Lannowe, Casldy and Peth- erick compiling 23 runs aplece, Langdale 32 and Bennion 25. After the seventh wicket had fallen for 140 the remaining three batemen added only 4 runs and the innings clos. 1 for 144. F. Jenkins was the most successful bowler for the Santa Cruzans, taking 3 wickets with 15 balls for 2 runs. A. Jenkins proved the mainstay of the | Santa Cruz batsmen, making 50 runs. Me- Namara 23, Gellatly 17, Corbett 14 and Day 17 were the others who scored double figures. It was agreed to play the game out and Santa Cruz looked very like win- ning, when a catch by Watson dismissed Thomas for 0. The Santa Cruz tctal was 142, or 2 short of the visitors' score. Dr. ©O.

Former Senator Allen Rec- ommends a Reorgani- zation. e e DENVER, July Z.—About fifty of the leaders of the Populist party and other political movements were present at the St. James Hotel this afternoon when the | conference of political reform leaders was called to/ order. The conference was called to order by J. A. Edgerton, secre- tary of the Populist National Committee, who called the conference. He spoke briefly, outlining the work which it was hoped tp accomplish by the conference in the amalgamation of the various reform forces of the nation into one party. Mr. Edgerton was made the permanent chair- man of the conference, with Milton Park | of Texas as vice chairman and J. H. Cal- | derhead of Montana secretary. The after- noon was taken up in the work of organ! zation and short addresses. The principal | speech was made by former United States | Senator W. V. Allen of Nebraska. Sena- | tor Allen favored a reorganization of the | reform forces which should embrace the various factions now embracing practi-| cally the same political doctrines and dif- | fering mainly in regard to methods. [ At the evening session a committee was named to draft resolutions and an address to the people and report to the conference | to-morrow afternoon. The committee is | as follows; Ex-Senator W. V. Allen, | chairman; J. S. Fetter, Illinois; J. M. | Mallet, Texas; Judge Frank W. Owens, Colorado; Dr. R. H. Rheemlin, Ohio; H. B. Hewitt, Kansas; W. A.

SAUSALITO, July 27.—But for interfer- ence by officers at Fort Baker last even- ing an interesting boxing contest would have taken place. The ring was pitched, the contestants were trained to the min- ute and with their seconds and bottle- holders were eager for the fray, but the hand of authority stopped the proceed- | ings. Four hundred or more soldiers and | civillans had gathered to see the contest. Six weeks ago Private Boland of the | Twenty-ninth Battery, Coast Artillery, | stationed at the Presidio, and Private Thompson, Thirty-second Company, Coast | Artillery, stationed at Fort Baker, met |in a dance hall in San Francisco shortly | after pay day and engaged in a quarrel | over the affections of a fair dancer. They agreed to settle their difficulty in the roped arena and to make the matter more binding a deposit for appearance was | posted and both men went into active training. Considerable money had changed hands on the result. Boland and his backers ar- rived in Sausalito yesterday and the ring | was pitched in the new gymnasium, a large crowd had paid for admission and the contestants were about to enter the ring when Lieutenants Jameson and Tay- lor appeared and announced to the assem- bled soldiers that the commanding officer had issued orders that the contest should be declared off. This order was greeted | with groans and grumbling from the au- dience. It became necessary > the of- ficers to call the guard and clear the gymnasium by force. B — \ Storm Strikes Minneapolis.

Hcoley & Co. and William Bassett Suspend. NEW YORK, July ~In spite of or probably because of two additional fail- ures on the Stock Exchange—E. S. Hooley & Co. of this city and Willlam Bassett of Boston—to-day's stock market showed very general improvement and the s tion as a whole was viewed with more cheerfulness. The Hooley failure was regarded as an inevitable sequel to that of W. L. Stow & Co., which came last Friday. The failure of Bassett was wholly unimportant—one of the day’s inciden The market displayed a hesitating tone at the outset, many of the railroad stocks showing fractional declines. Slight improvement soon - followed, but prices fell off 1 to 3 points In the active list, with even greater declines in the spectal- ties, oon as the Hooley failure came out. Evansville and Terre Haute, a Ity, declined 5% points and fusion. By the end of the first hour the siiua- tion seemed well in hand and the prices advanced, save in a few instances, where pressure continued to be directed at sev- eral stocks. The Bassett announcement at noon caused hardly any excitement. So far as known Bassett has no outstanding con- tracts in this city. Further improvement was shown by the market in the last hour. en Evansville and Terre Haute recovered all but one point its loss, Des Moines and Fort Dodge and the Hooley stock gaining four points. While somewhat irregular at times, the list made a number of material net gains. These include advances of 2 per cent or more in the active railway list; Brooklyn Rapid Transit, 2%: Consolidated Gas, 2%; Lackawanna, 9; Delaware and Hudson, 4%: Minneapolis and St. Louls common, 3, and Iowa Central common and preferred, 1 and 2% points, respectively. A few of the high-c'ass industrials made gains, notably the Westinghouse is- sues, 5 points; General Electric. 3; United States Steel common, 1%, aud the pre- ferred, 1%. On the other hand some other indus- trials finished the day with severe de- clines. Shares of the Rubber Goods Com- pany and the United States Rubber Com- pany, in which the firm of Talbot J. Tay- lor & Co. is said to be interested, sold at | better prices. The assignee of Hooley & Co. would make no statement for publication, and it was impossible to learn the amount of | the Mabilities. In conservative circles the firm’'s labilities are placed at about 8,- 000,000, It is known (hat Hooley & Co. had of- of help from high quarters, but deemed it advisable to declin The firm of Hooley & Co. was organi: ed in June, 1%02, and consists of Edwin S Hooley, Frank E.

They were receifed at the entrance of the basil- jea by Monseigneur Galimbreti and the Duke of Nalvezzi. In the center of the | choir stood a high catafalque covered by | rich drapery and papal robes, surmounted Monseigneur Stonor of- ficlated, assisted by the canons of St. John. The music, which was exception- ally fine, was rendered by the choir of the basilica. Cardinal Gibbons celebrated early mass in the private chapel of the Sulphicians and then drove to the Vatican, where he participated in the meeting of the Con- gregation of Cardinals. He was most cor- by a triple crown. | dially received by all his colleagues and the members of the Sacred College ap- pointed at the last consistory were pre- sented to him. Cardinal Gibbons then took the oath of the gospels, administered by Cardinal Oreglia, dean of the Sacred College, to maintain strict secrecy on all questions discussed at the meeting of the congregation and to defend the rights, prerogatives and temporal claims of the church. When the meeting of the con- | gregation was over Cardinal Gibbons went to St. Peter's and prayed before the blessed sacrament. He then knelt before the resting place of the Pope and prayed for about fifteen minutes. Cardinal Gibbons has appointed Father P. C.
