When he de- cided to leave the gates were thrown open to him and he passedfout of the prison walls for the first tfhe since he was brought into court during his at- empt to obtain a release on a writ of habeas corpus. He was attired just as he was on his arrival at the time of his incarceration. During his short stay here Captain Carter talked interestingly. “Believing in your innocence as you do, do you ever think of yourself as ‘a sort of a man without a country?” ” he was asked. “Not at all,” replied Carter. “Why should I?

CHICAGO, Nov. 28.—Using every means to avoid notice, Oberlin M. Car- ter, once captain of engineers in the United States army, arrived in Chi- cago to-night and was at once driven | to the home of his brother, I S. Carter, | 308 North State street. When the San- ta Fe train bearing Mr. Carter drew into the Dearborn-street brother and his attorney were there 1o weet him. Carter had nothing to say, he might make a statement. ——————— LETTER WRITER SENDS THREATS TO MARSHAL Sonoma Official Is Called Upon to Pay Money or-Suffer Death. SANTA ROSA, Nov. 28.—City Marshal W.

As told by counsel for Mrs. Harrison on October 6, Harrison & Co. began suit against M. C. Harrison and Inez Harrison to foreclose a mortgage on some real estate in this city. A copy of the summons was mailed to Mrs. Har- rison at San Francisco, with no street address on it, and was later returned to Portland.

A mortgage for $1500 had been placed | upon the property in question.

ADVERTISEMENTS. We Offer $1,000 For a’ Disease Germ That Liquozone On every bottle of Liquozone we publish an offer of $1000 for a germ it cannot kill. We do that to con- vince you that liquid oxygen does kill germs. Any drug that kills germs is a poisen to you and it cannot be taken internally. -iquozone alone can kill germs in the body without killing the tissues, too. It he only way known—the only way one can conceive of—to destroy the cause of any germ disease. Kills With Oxygen. Liguozone is simply liquid oxygen— no drugs, no alcohol in it. It is the dis- ccvery of Pauli, the great German chemist, who spent 20 years on it. His object was to get such an excess of oxy- gen in staple from into the blood that no germ could live in any membrane or tissue. Oxygen is life to an animal—the very source of vitality. It is the essential f air. Its effects are exhilarating, rifying. It is Nature's greatest tonic But germs are vegetables, and this ex cess of oxygen—the very life of an ani- mal—is deadly to vegetable matter, Liquozone charges the blood with such an excess of oxygen that no germ can live where that blood goes. We spend | 14 days in making each bottlo, We Paid $100,000 For the American rights to Liquozone —the highest price ever paid for similar rights on any scientific discovery. Be- fore making the purchase we tested the product for years through physicians in the most difficult germ diseases. We proved that Liquozone does what notht ing else in the world can accomplish, and that the results are unvarying. A discovery that could command such a price is something you should know if you need it. We are doing our rt by supplying the first bottle free. Will you do your part by requesting it? Germ Diseases. These are the known germ diseases. All that medicine can do for these troubles is to help Nature overcome the germs, and such results are indirect and uncertain. Liquozone kills the germs, wherever they are, and the re- sults are inevitable. By destroying the cause of the trouble, it invariably ends the disease, and forever, Asthma Hey Fever—Influenza Abscess—Anemta Kidney Diseases * Bronchitis Grippe Blood Poleon 1.eucorrhea Bright's Disease Liver Troub! tes Malaria—Neuraigia Many Heait Troubles Piles—Pneumonia Bowsl Troubles Coughs—Colds Consumption Colte—Crou Sic_Sre Pleurisy Quinsy Catarrh—Cancer Skin Diseases Dysentery—Disrrhea Scrofula—Syuhills Dandruft—Dropsy 5 b yepepsia “Throat Troubles $iczema—Erysipelas Tuberculosis Fevers—Gall Stones Tumors—Ulcers * Can’t Kill.

Traflic’ Director J. C. Btubbs, Assistant fi¢ Director Ben Campbell, J. A. Monroe, freight trafic manager of the Union Pacific; Willlam Sproule, freight’ trafic manager cf the Southern Paclfic, and General Freight Agent G. W. Luce, Manager Agler, Chief Engineer | William Hood, Enginecr of Maintenance of Way J. H. Wallace and General Pas- senger Agent T. H. Goodman of the Southern Pacific, and J. Francis, general passenger agent of the Burlington road, i | they formed a portion of E. H. Harrl- man’s partv which inspected the Lucin cut-off. President Harriman and a number of his friends came as far West as Sacra- mento, where their course was changed southward to Los Angeles. From there the president of the Southern Paclific Company will journey up the coast road to this city. Trafic Director Stubbs, the picture of robust health, which until recently he had not enjoyed for many months, came as far as this city merely for pleasure, and expects to return to Chicago to-day with his_assistant, Ben Compbell. BENEFITS TO RESULT. Tn discussing the good that will re- | ®ult to California from the straighten- eific roads Mr. Stubbs sald last evening that the volume of benefit that would eventually accrue to the State by reason of these improvements could not be esti- mated at this early period, but he re- marked that it would certainly be enor- mous. Continuing, he said: “I sometmies think that the people of California hawe not yet fully appreclated is practically completed, nor can I im- agine that the shippers of the State have arrived at the full realization of the fact that they gain the most by the successful results of the construction work per- formed under the eye of President Har- riman. Of late there has been some com- plaint in Caj'fornia regarding the con- | Southern Pacific lines. It is, however, a condition that is experienced every year on the lines of the Eastern companies. To the people of the coast it is something new, and it will take some time, probably, to educate them up to the idea that these | conditions cannot always be overcome or | anticipated. All the motive power and | the rolling stock owned in this country | could net have moved the freight more promptly than it was moved this year. SITUATION IN THE EAST. In the East some of the larger roads were compelled to take off their fast pas- | senger trains in order to facilitate the | movement of freight, and T am satisfled | that if comparative figures could be got | together at vresent, convincing evi- cific Company did remarkably well by its | patrons, in the face off the difficulties that confronted the management of the road, would be easily obtained from them. | It 1s these very conditions that re- | Union Pacific roads, and insuring the | patrons of the companies faster and bet- ter trancportation of their shipments. Of | course, some people may argue that Pres- | ident Harriman might have set this work | duller and trafic less, but I will say for | him that he is of the opinion that the Western country through which the reads he operates extend, is not going to experience dull times, andethe quicker the work was finished the more he thought that the achievement would be appreciated. Other people (will argue that Mr. Harriman should have a double track. Perhaps he has a similar opinion, but if e had undertaken to construct | these, greater difficulties would have con- fronted both the railroad and the ship- pers. “Many new sidings would have to be built, and trains on the main line would be blockaded by the operating of trains used In the laying of the second track. Careful conrideration of the entire situa- tion will satisfy any one that the best step was taken and the best results will follow." OFFICIALS TURN HOMEWARD. President Horace G. Burt and Party Pass Through Ogden. | OGDEN, Utah, Nov. 28—President | Horace G. Burt of the Union Pacific | Rallroad, accompanied by the party of Eastern railroad officials who attended the opening of the Lucin cut-off by President Harriman on Thanksgiving day, passed through the city this after- noon, en route home. The party will reach Omaha Sunday night. President Harriman has sent the fol- | lowing telegram to Alexander Miller, New York: “Please explain to the board of di- rectors and to Jacob Schiff that we have just completed a trip over our line from Omaha to Reno and found the work completed and the new road in general more impressive than any of us expected. We are highly gratified and the officers and their employes de- serve great credit for their masterful efforts.” BANQUET IN HONOR OF RETIRING SUPERINTENDENT Employes of Independent Light and Power Company Show Apprecia- tion of Retiring Associate.

He was about 26 years of age at the time of his death and had always been a dutiful son and a law-abiding citizen. i “He was not a member of the mob known as the ‘Lookout lynchers’; was not present at the time of the lynch- ing and knew nothing at all about it until the bodies had been found. “‘He therefore could not have been and was not kicked by any of the victims of the mob, as was alleged in the article | referred to. | “Nelither did he begin to decline in| | health shortly after this lynching af-| | fair, as alleged in sald article, but for | | more than a year thereafter enjoyed | | robust health and worked as he always ! had worked.

His death was a sudden, and to us, a tragic one; shortly before it occurred he appeared better than he had been for some time, and to me he expressed the hope that he | would soon be up and about again. He was lying quietly on his bed when sud- { denly and without saying a word, by | |an almost superhuman effort, for he ! was very weak, he arose to a sitting posture, and a stream of blood burst/ | from his lips. We rushed to his assist- | lance and did everything we could to| aid and relieve him, but he never spokei‘ again, and died in a few minutes. | “I have obeyed the laws all of my | life and my neighbors and others who know me will tell you that I am and al- | | ways have been a law-abiding citizen. | { "I cannot believe that » great news- | paper such as yours is, whose character | for fairness is recognized by the peo- | ple of Northern California as standing first gmong the large newspapers of | this State, would knowingly inflict this cruel blow upon us.
