The romance of Oscar C. Gowing {and his wife, who before her marriage was Grace H. Gorrill, was n the divorce court to-day, when the { husband was granted a decree by Judge | Hall on the ground of deserticn. More han a year ago domestic differences arose between them and she took their | three-year-old daughter Hatherley and went back to the home of her parents. { The Gowings were well known so- ciety people and their marriage five | years ago was a society event. Gowing nherjted considerable money at the *d(‘:}(h of his uncle, Oscar Gowing, while | R. W. Gc 11, the father of Mrs. Gow- | ing, is wealthy and owns a pretty home in the Piedmont district. | The proceedings in court to-day were short. Besides being represented by his attorneys, Gowing himself was present and testified to the fact that his wife had left him. Mrs. Gowing was rep- resented by attorneys, but no objection was made to the decree being granted. No alimony was asked for on her be- half. Of late Mrs. Gowing has been devit- ing herself to literature and consider- able of her work has been published in Eastern magazines. She is now en- gaged in collecting a number of short stories to be published in book form. Her brother is Attorney W. H. Gor- rill, a member of the present Board of Library Trustees.

Dyna- mite, a greater force than Boreas could call to his aid, was used to limit the zone of destruction with but little suc- cess. Early Thursday morning the residents of Belvedere were aroused by the gale and until daylight worked heroically to limit the damage that was inevit- able. The storm had hardly broken when it was seen that many of the yachts anchored in the offing were dragging their anchors. Al efforts to secure them were in vain and before morning a score of the white-winged fleet were on the flats or careened on the beach. Several of the heavier launches tore from their moorings and constituted the greatest menace to the homes that fringe the water’s edge. The heavy' pleasure craft drifted against the piling supporting- the cottages built out over the water and in sev- eral instances imperiled the safety of the occupants of the homes. One big launch was tearing the supports out from under a cottage, when dynamite was utilized and the craft sunk. This ended its work of destruction. It is Idouhttul if the craft can be repaired, so thoroughly did the explosive do its work, though the explosive was so placed that it di@ not lnjure the dwelling. The roadway that leads from the Tiburon landing along the water front to the heights of Belvedere was undermined and made unfit for use and the ‘supports of the bathhouses were weakened. Waves leaped clear over the bathouses and no effort could be made to save them from therav- ages ‘of the storm.

Vail of VICTORY MEANS THE CLOSED DOOR IN MANCHURIA Methodist College, Tokio, Declares Japan's Cause Is Just and That Mus- covite Triumph Will Be Blow to American Trade OAKLAND, March 10.—“Should Rus- sia be victorious in the conflict now be- ing waged in the Far East, Manchuria will be closed to American trade,” de- clared Professor M. 8. Vail of the Meth. ture given at the missionary conference of the First Baptist Church at the Ma sonic Temple this evening. The subject of Professor Vaii's address was “The Significa anese Conflict.” Professor Vail has been for more than twenty years closely associated with the Japanese, having been sent out as a professor in the Christian the empire by the Methodist Missionary Society. He has visited nes ified to judge the merits of the ques- tions at issue in the present struggle.

Half a score of prominent build- |ings, dncluding the Giesea block, the Children’s Home and the Angels Iron Works, were unroofed or damaged. | Windmills ‘and tankhouses went down by the score. In the lumber yard dis- | trict great timbers were picked up and carried considerable distance. Tele- | graph and telephone wires went down and the streets were rendered danger- cus by the mass of electric power wires that fell or became entangled with others. Street cars stopped. Plate glass windows were smashed to pieces. Flying signs, cornices and loose debris made the streets dangerous. The river steamers from San Fran- cisco due this morning did not get in until late this afternoon, but they had | no mishaps. Wires to Bouldin Island are down, but the steamers that passed the island this morning report that the wind was sweeping water over the levees, but that no breaks had oc- curred. ¥, ‘Word comes to the Independent to- night from Sherman Island that Boul- din and Andrus Island levees withstood the storm. LA R SANTA ROSA ISOLATED. Trains Cease Running and Electric Wires Are Grounded. SANTA ROSA, March 10.—The storm that broke here last night continued luntil 10 o'clock thig morning without abatement and was the heaviest known in severa! years. The rain was ac- ccmpanied by high winds and consider- able damage is reported. Up to 7 o’clock to-night no trains had entered Santa Rosa on either road, and al- though the early morning Southern Pa- cific passenger train left as usual it did not succeed in getting through. A big landslide is reported on the Guer- neville branch and also on the main line of the California Northwestern near Cloverdale. The down train was stalled between here and Petaluma all day. The only passenger from the north to-day was A. Korbel, a well-known wine and lumber man, who came down from Korbels Station as far as Fulton on a handcar and walked from there in, hoping to get a train to San Fran- cisco. Santa Rosa Creek is higher to- day than for sixteen years and numer- ous small bridges and culverts are re- ported washed out in varfous parts of the county. The railroad bridge here is in a dangerous condition. Blectric wires grounded last night and the town was in totalj darkness while the storm was at its feight. This is the first time in its history that Santa Rosa has been cut off from outside communication. Trains may get through from San Francisco to- night with mail and papers. Sy Heavy Storm at Grass Valley. GRASS VALLEY, March 10.—The REAL CONTEST BARS ARE DOV S FOR CHILD Barrie Divorce Suit Trial Is Begun, the Wife Charg- ing Husband With Cruelty HE MAKES A DENIAL Says It Was Necessary to Place Her in Sanitarinm | and to Execlude Her Sister Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, March 10. The trial of the divorce suit of Eliza Barrie against Alexander C. Barrie, a commercial traveler, was begun before Judge Ogden to-day. Mrs. Barrle al- leges cruelty. The parties are residents of Berkeley and the case has attracted considerable attention on account of the charges made by Mrs. Barrie against her husband. She allages that she has been caused great mental an- guish by the fact that she was confined in a sanitarium for four months and not allgwed to see her sister or her child. She gained her release through a writ of habeas corpus sued out by her sister, Miss Herrick. Barrie says she was sent to the hos- pital upon the advice of reputable phy- sicians, and that he had to pay $150 a month for her treatment out of a salary of $300. Her sister was not allowed to visit her on account of the fact that she was a nervous, excitable woman, and it was deemed best not to allow them to be together. The contest, however, is not sp much over the divorce itself as for the cus- tody of their 15-year-old daughter. This side of their differences overshadows that of who is entitled to the decree. L % section to-day. It began after mid- night and maintained its fury till aft- ernoon. The wind has been blow- ing with the velocity of a hu ne and as a result considerable damage has been done. All telephone lines are down between this city and the outside world, and it may be a day or two before service is again in operation. Poles in town were blown down in different places and many lines cut. To make matters worse telegraph lines are also out of commission. Accom- panying the wind is a heavy rain. PROSPERITY FOR MONTEREY. Rain Gives Promise of Best Season Known in Salinas Valley. SALINAS, March 10.—The heavy wind storm from the southwest hit Salinas Valley about midnight last night and continued until this forenoon. Since then showers have fallen at intervals. The past twenty-four hours will show that an inch of rain has fallen around Salinas. Reports from the lower por- tions of Monterey County indicate the precipitation was heavier there. Up to noon to-day San Lucas had more than an inch of rain, with prospects for much more. Around Monterey and along the coast the downpour has been much heavier and was accompanied by a flerce gale that uprooted trees and blew down fences and outbuildings. With the present storm has disap- peared all fears of a poor season. Throughout the Salinas Valley and especially toward the San Lujs Obispo line the precipitation of the past month has been far above the average. The clear warm weather of the past two weeks has caused a wonderful growth in vegetation. The feed on the hills around San Lucas, San Arde, Bradley and the cattle and sheep sections never looked better. The hills are covered with young green grass and feed is abundant. In the Salinas Valley farmers who have lived here for forty years predict a record-breaking season. While the acreage may not be as large as usual, owing to the lateness of the season, cereals of every sort are growing with wonderful rapidity. The soil has not lost a bit of the rains and the warm weather and lack of wind has quick- ened growth. From King City north fo the mouth of the Salinas River there will be an unusually large beet acreage. As late rains are most needed in beet raising, the prospects could not be bet- ter. While the geason’s rainfall is below: the average, Monterey County pros- pects in all branches of agriculture never looked better. The late rains and warm weather have benefited crops in all sections of the county. The lower portion of the county has received a plentitude of rain, and a general pros- perity is assured for tb> coming season. e S Vi HEAVY FALL AT WILLOWS. Wind Does Much Damage and Rising ‘Waters Flow Into Houses. WILLOWS, March 10. — One of the most violent storms ever experienced here swept over this section last night and this morning. The south wind blew a hurricane and rain fell in tor- rents. Roofs were torn from a num- ber of houses, trees were uprooted and debris is scattered over the streets. The low lying sections of the town are in- undated. Snow is falling on the moun- tains in the western part of the caunty Telephone and telegraph lines are down and no communication can be had with river towns. It is feared that a large section of the river country will be in- undated. At Greenwood, north of here, a freightcar was started by the vio- lent wind and was going at a rapid pace when it collided with a freight train. The car was demolished. There afe washouts along the railroad north and south of here and no trains ar- rived to-day. At noon the storm had abated and the sun was shining. The rainfall was four and a half inches. PR R, RAIN SAVES CROPS. SANTA BARBARA, March 10.—Ac- companied by a strong southeast wind, rain began falling in this city about 9 o'clock this morning and continued until 6 o'clock this evening, when the wind changed to the west worst storm in recent years swept this |and the clouds cleared away. Two T0 PRISONERS 7 S Technieality Opens Doors of | Jail to Twenty-Five In- mates of County Lockup CHINES FINDS POINT Court Says Law Restriets Police Judges’ Power in Cities of a Certain Class| - Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, March 10. t Charlie Fong, a notorious Chinese, | gamed his release from the County Jail this morning upon a technicality which opens the jail doors to twenty- four other prisoners confined there. Fong was sentenced to six months in the County Jail upon a charge of vagrancy. As soon as he was taken there a writ of habeas corpus was sued out by Attorney Fred Button, who made the point that under the Whitney act Police Judges in cities having a population of between 30,000 and 100,000 are restricted to sending prisoners to the City Prison. For nine years ‘the Police Judges of this city have been sentencing prison- ers to the County Jail without this point having been raised, and it probable that other cities coming under the same rule are opemn to the same mistake. Under a decision of the Su- preme Court the Whitney act takes precedence over the gemeral law in those cities where the rule applies. In that act the powers of Police Judges are defined, and they only have power | - t6 send prisoners to the City Prison. After a careful examination of the law in the matter Judge Hall was con- vinced that the point was well takKen, and he ordered The following prisoners now confined therp come under the same ruling and can gain their release in the same man- ner: Sam Levenbein, Peter Knuth, Ed- na Wallace, Albert Peterson, Mamie | Sullivan, Edwin McHaight, Cato Moore, Della Wright, Ella Miller, Bart Thayer, | Henry Bethune, Ray Parsons, Herman Stumpf, Henry Hynes, William F. Brown, Mollie Gaunse, John O'Keefe, Eliza Hall, Connie Fitzgerald, William O’Connell, John Reynolds, Willi An- derson, Emma Wingate and Mrs. A. Johnson. - and forty hundredths inches was re- corded during that time. An abun- dance of feed for stock and crops are now assured. All sections of the county report raiufalls ranging from two to three inches. The hot winds of the last two or three days had caused considerable uneasiness among the farmers, as was feared no moisture would be left in the soil and that both feed and <+ crops would become a total loss, but | to-day's precipitation allays all fears and brings rejoicing in all sections. ek gl Petaluma Flooded. PETALUMA, March 10.—Three inches of rain fell here to-day, result- ing in the biggest flood in the history of the city. The entire lower part of the city is under water. Many peo- ple had to be rescued in boats. The river rose six feet over flood tide. Much damage has resulted in the flooding of warehouses, stores and residences and the destruction of buildings and bridges by wind and water. J. P. McNear, Camm & Hedges, H. Cavanagh and thé Golden Eagle Mills are heavy losers. Schools and factories are closed and business suspended. ey Trains Stalled at Beicia. BENICIA, March 10.—Two of this mornlngs eastbound trains and the afternoon Sacramento local are stalled at Benicla on account of a washout between this place and Suisun. It is reported that several hundred feet of | the track has been washed away. Many impatient travelers have been waiting for trains to get through. Many who left San Francisco early this morning have been without food, as they expected to start at almost any time. The storm was very severe here. (UYL R Havoc Wrought About Milton. MILTON, March 10.—What was prob- ably the most furious windstorm ever experienced here prevailed from about midnight last night until past noon to- day. From all quarters come reports of windmills, trees and fences blown down and many buildings damaged. The rain fell in torrents at times, but has not rendered the streams impas- sable. N Much Rain at San Jose. SAN JOSE, March 10.—The heaviest storm experienced here for several years raged between 12 o’clock last night and noon to-day. The rainfall for that period was 3.06 inches, making the total for the season 10.28, against 11.21 to same date last year.
