Opium Smuggling,

SAN FRANCTscO, February l0.--A spe-
oisl treasury agent has been here inves-
tigating the reported opium smuggling
and has discovered that the old ring
which formerly imported opium by he
ton had been reconstructed and Is more
powerful than ever. Two members Of
the old ring are in prison, although
$4,000 was spent by their con-
federates to obtain their release.
Smugglers still at large, II 10 charged,
have formed Inclination with influ-
entail officers Of the custom house and
are not only importing opium once more
In large quantities but also Chinese
silks. Formerly all smuggling was done
on the large steamships plying between
San Francisco and China. The meth
DDS OF the smugglers became
so well known that this system was
abandoned and the smugglers have a
fleet OF their own consisting Of stsunoh
schooners that run in and out OF San
Francisco under guise Of seal hunting
schOoners without being noticed by the
custom house officer.

TRYING A PREACHER.

Martial Assembled.


odist Congregation In Court
Martial Assembled.
The board OF deacons OF the Paine
Methodist church, OF this city, have been
for the past three nights performing q
very srduous as well as unpleasant and
painful duty. In the trial OF one Of their
members, Mr.. A. ii. Stesgall, who, be-
sides being = deacon Of the church and
hitherto q shining light and pillar Of the
flock, is q lay minister and has been an
elder. The trial is based on the charge
OF immortality, and the specifications
who enumerated In a dozen or more
points, among which ls the defrauding
Of n church brother In the GALE OF hay
from his ranch, getting an appeal bond
In justice court endorsed and falling
to indemnify the bondsman for the $2C0
he was compelled to pay In the judg-
ment, failing to pay $500 grocery bill,
etc., etc. There were other and graver
specifications enumerated, and an ex-
hAustive trial and hearing OF the case
has been granted the defendant.
Wednesday night concluded the
evidence on the side OF the
prose cution and last night the defense
was begun by the Introduction Of rebuff
ting Testimony, which defendant claimed
would fully exhonerate him from all
cslumny as well as effectually clear his
clerical skirts.
Presiding Elder Harris presided
over the deliberations Of the board.
Last night In the trial, accused and
his two sons gave the rebutting testi-
mony, after which accused delivered q
very bitter speech, In which he scored
all his brethren ofthe church who were
witnesses very severely, and ended al
n a tiraln "a nlnaa xuh iah
was after l O'Clock this morning. the
examining board excluded all the wilt
nesses, the accused, and even the coun-
sci Of both sides, from the room and
took vote whether to expell or retain
accused. Almost unanimously the vote
was to expell, both from the church as q
member, from being an elder and from
being a lay-minister. Accused took an
appeal to the annual general conference
OF the Methodist church, which will
meet next fall.
1t was al first thought by the members
of the examining board, that 1t would
only be necessary to strip the clerical
office from accused, but examining the
law Of the church, they found no alter
native but complete expulsion.
Rev. Steagall Is an old man now,
though vigorous in physique and intel
leot still. He has long been a resident
OF San Antonio and always been promi-
nent in church work, the most active
period OF his career. perhaps, being his
connection with the late prohibition
campaign In this city, when, IL is alleged,
he was such a prominent prohibition
worker that the outrage OF rotten eggs
being thrown against his Avenue c
residence was committed by unknown
parties.

A Romance in a Nutshell

There Is q little romance in the city
that is attracting some attention. Some
time ago a we'll dressed elderly man and
a woman called upon Mrs. Reinlnger-
Rose, the midwife, and arranged for q
pretty young lady, who was enclente, to
be cared for. The young lady came and
was delivered of female child. As
soon as she had recovered her strength
she and her mother went cut TO do some
shopping and forgot to return; and may
also forget to take the baby with them
Since then nothing can be learned OF
either party aud the baby Is now being
cared for at the Childrens' Home.
The parties concerned In this matter
are evidently wealthy and OF good posi-
ton. They were very reticent, and all
that could be learned was that the par
ties lived In New Orleans and the young
lady had been betrayed by her betrothed
who had fed to escape the consequence
OF his sin.
