HARD ARGUMENTS Coffee Uses Them Whether One Likes or Not. The 1ll effects of coffee are present in many coffee drinkers, but some people pay no attention to the warning signals like dyspepsia, insomnia, nervousness, fluttering of the heart, etc., until coffee finally uses a knockdown aPgument, which means collapse on the part of the coffee drinker. *“] am 3 years old and have drunk cof- fee since I can remember untll four years ago, when 1 broke down completely with nervous prostration and indigestion. I simply cannot describe the agony 1 suf~ fered. *“Doctor told me he could not help me if I @id not leave coffee alone, so I bought some, Postum to give it a trial. At first T @id not know how to meke it and was dis. appointed in the taste, but after reading the directions on the package carefully made it right, and then I thought it bet- ter than coffee. At that time I weighed 140 pounds and now I weigh 185 pounds. That's quite a gain, isn't it?

Mclvor- Tyndall, taxed the seating capacity of the house. The subject was well handled, be- ing a concise statement of the various opposing opinions in regard to the use of hypnotism and what the subtle power is capable of in the Jight of criminology. Dr. Mclvor-Tyndall holds that any per- son who is dominated by one idea, whether he be asleep or awake, is hypno- tized. In this sen<e criminals are often developed by the force of a suggestion of crime taken into the mind until it be- comes dominant. The lecture was fol- lowed by demonstrations of the psychic powers of the scientist, which elicited enthusiastic applause. Next Sunday eve- ning Dr. Meclvor-Tyndall will talk on “The Elements 6f Success.” —— AL‘I’ON, III.. Nw. 8.—Samson Cooper, eo n-nn-‘ eleetric light caped. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, DOWAGER FEARS | CONGRESS READY (POSSE SEARGHING (VIENNA DOCTORS |DRINKS A PINT Report Current That|Little Will Be Done Dur- Empress Has Left Peking. Japan Denies the Story of Her Settlement With Russia. e LONDON, Nov. 9—The Dally Mail's Tientsin correspondent says that news has been received from Peking that the Empress Dowager is preparing to leave Peking for Kalfong, capital of the pro- vince of Honan, in view of possible trouble with Russia. The correspondent of the Daily Mall at Tientsin cables the Russian Government that the reoccupation of Moukden was made necessary because Japan was menacing the province of Shinkin. The Chefu correspondent of the Morning Post says a Japanese steamer has been | detained at Port Arthur for entering the port without having a pilot on board, | pllotage being now compulsory. YOKOHAMA, Nov. 8.—It is said in of- ficial circles at Tokio that the rumor that negotiations between the Russians and Japanese Governments had come to the | verge of a final settlement is misleading, but that the Tokio Government is now awaiting Russia’s reply, which is due at any moment, but which will only advance the question of the Far Eastern difficulty to_another stage. The reports of the resignation of Vice- roy Alexieff, his change of headquarters form Port Arthur to Viadivostok and the dismantling of the fort at Yongampho are all believed to indicate a temporary weak- ening of the Russian war party, but those incidents also will further delay a final settlement. The new tonnage dues promulgated by Viceroy Alexieff provide that non-Rus- sians must pay twelve times the dues charged to Russian vessels. L R ] ) ORKLAND REALTY MARKET AGTIVE Great Demand for Home Sites in Suburban Districts. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadwav, Nov. 8. The condition of the local real estate market during the last month has been £00d and the dealers agree that the out- look for the next year is most encourag- by people who intend to locate perma- | nently in this city, and the renting mar- ket has been very active. The demand for cottages has been especlally brisk. The inauguration of the new ferty ser- | vice has had a very appreciable influence in stimulating the demand for property located on or near the lines of the com- pany, and a large amount of residence property has been sold to former subur- ban residents of San Francisco, who say that they can reach the business district of San Francisco quicker by the new ferry their former homes. The opening of the new tunnel road from Contra Costa County will increase the value of property along the new road, as it is sure to induce many residents of that county to trade in Oakland, and it passes through an ideal residence dis- trict, Following are statements from a num- ber of the local real estate men: J. B. Myers of Austin & Myers—The real es- {tate market has been very active during the last month, and the Indications are that the present prosperous conditions will continue, { There is a great demand for centrally located | apartment houses and suburban homes. In the | einity of Thirty-second and Thirty-fourth and Adeline streets to San Francisco investors, and of fifteen houses that I am now building I have already disposed of five, although none of them |are yet completed. There is a great demand for property along the lines of the new ferry, especially in the vicinity of the new cross- town line on Fortieth street. One of the San Francisco men who purchased property from me says that he can reach his place of busi- ness quicker by the new ferry than he could by the street cars from his home in San Fran- clsco. .'J. Snyder—The market has been extreme- ly favorable for the month of October, and I think that it will continue to be active. I have had many inquiries for property on the streets mear the car lines that connect with the new “‘Key Route” ferry, especially near Fortieth street. There are a great many flats vacant Just tow, but only a very few cottages are to be had, At the present time there are great many San Francisco and Eastern people build- ing homes in this city. In fact, I don't know when the real estate business has been so good in _the Iul twelve years. Joseph Mason of Berkeley—The realty m.rkfll in Berkeley is not so active as it was at this time last year, although eince the opening of the new ferry I have had many in- with the new ferry, and I think that property values will soon Increase as & result of the new enterprise. James S. Naismith—I have done three times as much business in the last month as I did in July, August or September, and the realty market 'looks good at the present time for a steady, healthy increase. Walter E. Logan—The sales during the month last past show that the realty market is in a very falr condition. The principal de- mand is for cottages centrally located or con- Seaient o the Ban Francisco trains. A good part of the sales now made are to speculators who are buying for the future rather than the present value of the property. £hould the general financial condition remain ul.lllclh::llofl this winter's real estate market wi YELLOW FEVER IN TEXAS UNABATED Twelve New Cases in Laredo Are Reported, but No Deaths. LAREDO, Texas, Nov. 8.—Yellow fe- ver continues without much abatement. The official bulletin issued to-night shows twelve new cases but no deaths. Dr. B. D. Murray, the international yellow fever expert, just returned from a trip as far as Saltillo, said to-day that conditions in Monterey, if judged by other cities where yellow fever has been epidemic, indicated no less than 25,000 cases there this year, with the mortality rate placed conservatively at 6 per cent. The deaths have been greatly in excegs of the number reported in the official bulletins issued in this city and fully 500 cases exist at the present time. The stations on the line of the Mexi- can Central, between Laredo and Saltillo, he says, suffered an invasion of the yel- low fever and have contributed an un- known number of deaths and cases.

The programme for the week is to have four brief sessions and an adjournment on Thursday until the following Monday. To-morrow there will be the usual roll call of Senators and the proclamation calling the extra session will be read. These will follow the appointment of a committee to notify the President that a quorum of the Senate has met and is ready to recelve any communication he has to.make. On Tuesday the President's message will be received and read. Ad- Journment will follow its reading, as a caucus of Republican Senators is to be held in the afternoon. Wednesday will be devoted largely to the introduction of bills and on Thursday there will be a short legislative session, anless discussion of the Panama situation .8 precipitated by the introduction of res- olutions asking for information. It is the intention of Senator Morgan to introduce resolutions on the subject and these may be discussed under the rules on the day following their presentation. The Repub- lican members of the Senate will inter- pose no objection to a discussion of the Panama canal question, but it is not lke- ly that any action will be taken until after the committees are appointed. HOUSE PROGRAMME. Regular Committees May Be Named During Extra Session. WASHINTON, Nov. 8.—The House of Representatives will be called to order at noon to-morrow by Alexander McDowell, the clerk. The opening of Congress al- ways i8 of sufficient interest to attract a much larger crowd to the Capitol than the galleries will accommodate, so ad- mission will be by card, two being sup- plied to each member. There will be the usual floral displays to lend picturesque- ness to what necessarily will be a routine proceeding. The proclamation of the President con- vening Congress in extra session having been read, prayer will be offered by. the chaplain, and then the roll will be called by States. Cannon, who has been selected for Speaker, will be formally elected. After the oath of office is administered to him by the “father of the House,” a title be- stowed on the member who has seen the longest continuous service, the Speaker will administer the oath to the members generally. The old officers of the House, having been made the nominees of the Republican caucus, will be re-elected and sworn in. Speaker Cannon will appoint a committee to join & committee of the Sen- ate to notify the President that a quorum of the two houses has assembled and that Congress is ready to receive any commu- nication he may desire to make. After adopting resolutions agreed on in the Republican caucus making the rules of the Fifty-seventh Congress the rules of the Fifty-eighth Congress and fixing an hour for the convening of the daily sessions, the drawing of seats will take place. The necessary preliminary work having been disposed of, the sesston in all probability will adjourn out of respect to the memory of members who have died. On Tuesday the House will listen to the President’s message. For the remainder of the week little can be accomplished, but it is understood to be the desire of the House leaders that consideration of the be pushed as rapidly as possible. It is sald to be probable that the com- mittees of the House may be named at this session, but it is not likely that much headway can be made in the matter of complete organization of the House with- in two or three weeks, and littlé will be attempted in the way of general legisla- tion until after complete organization has been accomplished. @ il el @ VALUABLE FOOD Professor Jaffa Finds Diet of That Sort Inexpensive. — Berkeley Office S8an Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, Nov. 8. The results of the investigations to as- certain the value of fruits and nuts as food that were carried on by Professor ment of the University of California, co- operating with the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture, are embodied in a pamphlet that was issued at the univer- sity to-day. Professor Jaffa finds, after exhaustive trials_ that the fruitarian diet is as valuable to the”body as the ordi- nary mixed foods and that the cost is about the same, The experiments were made in part Wflh persons who had lived a number of years on a strictly fruit and nut diet and in part with university students accustomed to mixed foods, there being made nine dietary and thirty-one digestion studies. In the majority of the dietary studies and all but one of the digestion experi- ments fruit and nuts constituted all or almost all of the dlet.*® For instance, in one series of tests the daily ration con- sisted of apples and bananas, alone or in combination with walnuts, almonds, Bra- zil nuts or pecans. The other experiments were carried on with different combina- tions of grapes, figs, walnuts and other fruits and nuts, eaten with small quan- tities of milk and breakfast foods, the latter being given simply to give a relish. The experiments demonstrated that the fruits and nuts were thoroughly digested and that they have a much more val- ulble nutritive value than was ordinarily As sources of carbohydrates n—ulu at ordinary prices are not expen- sive, and as sources of protien and fat nuts at usual prices are reasonable foods. The cost of the fruitarian diet daily®for one person is fonnd to vary from 18 to 20 cents. Aty Mitchell May Step Down.

IN A QUARREL, FROWN OF GZAR| T0 BEGIN WORK] FOR DYNAMITERS Rock Island Officials Put Bloodhounds on Trail Hope to Capture Men Who Tried to Blackmail Company. —_— DES MOINES, Ia, Nov. 8—The Rock Island officlals to-night sent out a second special train bearing armed officers and bloodhounds to Dexter, Iowa, In the hope of capturing a gang of dynamiters. The officers spent the night in the wocds along the right of way between Earlham and Dexter, but had no encounter with rob- bers. A section man walking on the track, however, shot at a man whom he saw slouching along the right of way, but the fellow disappeared in the timber, run- ning at full speed despite an order to halt. About ten days ago the general offices in Chicago received a letter directing the road to gee that $1000 was thrown off No. 6, the Denver flyer, somewhere in Iowa on Saturday night. Superintendent Slifer came to Des Moines and it was decided to make the appearance of acceding to the demand. But a speclal was made up at Council Bluffs tosfollow No. 6 about ten minutes and it bore armed men and bloodhounds. The engineer of No. 6 was given the mon- ey to throw from his engine at the given signal, the explosion of three torpedoes under his side of the machine. The tor- pedoes were not exploded. To-day it was rumored, however, that No. 5, preceding No. 6 a half hour, had exploded the torpedoes. This, or some other new information, resulted in reor- ganizing the special force of armed offi- cers which went out on a special from Des Moines to Dexter and then patrolled the right-of-way between Earlham and that town all night. Nothing developed, however, and the men remained in the timber watching for the criminals in vain. [ e e R e ] HOODLUMS RIOT AT SAN LEANDRO Wild Fight Around the Town Plaza Arouses Citizens. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Nov. 8. Inflamed with liquor and defiant of the law, half a dozen young men of Oakland and Alameda were responsible for a riotous outbreak at San Leandro this afternoon that involved a hundred men in a free-for-all battle before the more than inciplent disturbance was quelled. Two out of the six men who started the trouble were arrested by Town Mar- shal M. Geisenhofer and put in the town calaboose for the night. The men gave their names as E. Parker and Thomas Kelly and said they were from Alameda. Geisenhofer went in pursuit of the mem- bers of the party, who fled. The battle occurred at the center of town, around the plaza. For an hour the strangers had been unruly and created much disturbance. Geisenhofer tried to quiet the men, but his efforts only served to arouse a belligerent attitude. In at- tempting to arrest one of the visitors Geisenhofer found his hands full of dis- turbance. wrawing his club, the officer used it until he broke the weapon. A hundred people, mostly men, gathered in an instant. Some of the town's youth took sides with the strangers, but most of the San Leandroites were with the Marshal. A dozen fights were on at once and many of the battling contestants used all sorts of improvised weapons. Men fought until they were tired out, had dispersed the six visitors and had seen two of them landed in the town jail. Geisenhofer was roughly handled, but managed to get out of the melee without serious injury. —_— HIGH PRICE FOR THE ST. NICHOLAS RELICS Russian General Has Offered $515,- 000 to the Owners in Italy.

The conflict arose over the question of vivisection, several members of the Land- tag accusing the doctors of contravening the vivisection law in their experiments on animals, and also alleging that the doctors operated on poor patients, inocu- lating them with the germs of noxious diseases. The physicians declare that the whole agitation comes from the anti-Semites, wifo are hostile to the scientists, a large proportion of whom in Vienna are Jews. L e el ] BARON THRASHES BILL GOLLEGTOR Patti’'s Husband Fights Man Who Annoyed the Diva. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Nov. 8.—Madame Patti to-day departed for Chicago, carrying with her the memory of a very unpleasant incident in connection with her farewell appearance in Manhattan. Baron Ceder- strom’s recollection of the affair is tem- pered by the satisfaction of having thrashed the prime mover in it. Madame Patti drove up to the stage door of Carnegie Hall last evening with her husband. As the diva was about to ascend the steps a man who had been hanging about for a half hour stepped in front of her and held out a paper. The man put his hand on her shoulder and said: “Excuse me, Madame Patti. My name is Kennedy, and I have a bill here for 3100 for services at the Cunard pler on your arrival here.” “Don’t detain me,” said Madame Patti in alarm, trying to shake his hand from her shoulder. “You must see my agents about that; I know nothing about it. Baron Cederstrom ran up to the little group and, seeing his wife in an alterca- tion with a stranger, waited but to hear her tell him to step aside and let her pass and then struck the man a stagger- ing blow in the face. Kennedy fell back and the Baron sprang at him, when Ken- nedy turned and ran. Baron Cederstrom carried a light cane. ‘With this he pursued his wife’s annoyer to the corner of Seventh avenue, getting | in several blows upon the man’s shoul- | ders before he escaped.

The ladies believe that an ord: nance is the only thing that will make Deople beautify the streets and they pro- pose to ask the Board of Trustees at its next meeting to take the matter up se- riously. If a law is passed by the Trustees re- quiring trees to be planted it will have the effect of turning all Berkeley into one great park. There may be doubt of the validity of such a law but the Town and Gown women are willing to back it until it is declared invalid by some court. It will have been the first time such a regu- lation has been tried and saturally there will be some opposition. The scheme is being backed by Mrs. Frank M. Wilson, president of the Town and Gown Club: Mrs. Paget, Mrs. Alan Freeman, Mrs. Plerce, Miss Wall and the | other prominent members of the club. The civic section of the club is trying to arrange for a joint Arbor day on De- cember 1 with the newly organized tree planting club of Oakland. It purposes to have the day a general holiday, so that the school children and business men may participate In the ceremonies. e —— BIRDS’ EGGS COLLECTORS TELL OF OBSERVATIONS Interesting PTptn Read Before Baka Cooper Ornithological Club—Pine ., BERKELEY, Nov. 8.—The Cooper rithological Club beld {its bi-r meeting this afternoon at the Ph Psi fraternity house.
