LONDON. Aug. 13.-The Chronicle

of the withdrawal OF Gear Nicholas IL.
from the active guidance Of the affairs OF

Ut power by the ex-czarina, aided by Dur

This change Of attitude, the dispatch
says.is due to the increasing power OF the
anti-German patty. The Dowager Czar-
ina, Princess Damar of Denmark, who
has always been All enemy of Germany.
and head Of the church of Russia, is Bit
terly opposed to German influence. The

from St. Petersburg has indicated that
she is quite unequal to the task that con-
fronts her. and it has been known for
some months that nothing can be expect.

Naturally the strong character of the
Princess Dagmar has brought her to the
front, and her we'll known antipatby to
German influences will probably bring
into positive evidence the lack of SYM

time that she had met Mayne was. she
said. in March last, when lie called in
answer to an advertisement for pupils,
and asked her to take two girls whom he
presented as his wards. He said that
be would prefer larger house than the

No. 1927 South Flower street. The girls
occupied the front room on the upper

Immediately adjoining and connected

usual she had ever noticed had been one
night when she and her husband heard
morse upstairs as ii something had fallen
on the floor in one of the rooms. Her hus-

everything was all right, and returned to
her and said it was. On cross-examlna-

girls. When he went up stairs to ascer-
tain the cause OF the trouble he heard
distinctly the noise of scutfiing feet as
somebody running from tho front room
into the rear one. He called to ,Mayne
and asked him if everything was all
right, anu the latter had opened the door
OF bis room. Moyns appeared to be
greatly agitated and very excited. On
his head was a large bruise which Mayne
stated he had received by striking against

that he mad heard the door leading into
the front room being closed. after which
Mayne bad appeared at the door which
opened from the back room into the hall.
The people here rested their case and the
defense called its first and only witness,
Deputy Constable Harry Johnston. who
arrested Mnyne in San Diego. An at

that he had been employed by other per-
sons than the county to collect evidence
against the defendant. but Mr.. Johnston
denied this and examination was
dropped.
Mr.. Copeland tnen made a brief ad-
dress, in which he stated that they had
attempted no defense. as they appre-

asked the court to impose as light a bail
as possible. Justice Owens helu the de-

Afternoon Session

Afternoon Session
There were no new develo opments in
the testimony at the afternoon session
about the only thing brought out being
the apparent indifference of Mrs. Ship
ton the m other OF the girls. to their fate
when they came to this city. She &C
knowledged that she had made no at
tempt to learn anything about Mayne
and had left the entire settlement of the
agreement with him. The younger sister,
Della. was the first called, but her testi-
m0ny was very brief and practically but
reiterston OF that given at the morn
ing session.
Elsie was then called and related the
circumstances OF the alleged rape. She
said that the first time Mayne had ever
had sexual intercourse with her had been
at the Wright house the first time he had
slept with her. The one great effect that
it had had upon her had been to cause
her remorse. She had not been hurt
her to have her dresses cut shorter the
reason ne gave had been that he wanted
her to look like little girl. The reason
-he had gone into his room was because
ts had asked her, and the reason she had
slept with him had been because she was
afraid Of him. About the first person she
had informed of the affair was Mrs.
Mayne. VINO told her not to deny H., as
sbe Mrs. Mayne, knew it was true.
Mrs. Clara 4. Shipton. the mother OF
the girls. was next called. She had been
married. but was unable to tell whether
her; husband was still alive or not. She
had supported herself and the girls by
working out by the day in san Francisco.
The eldest girl, Elsie. she stated. was IA
years old the 18th OF last June, and in
corroboration produced small Bible
which she Introduced In evidence. The
first time that she had met Mr.. LOTUS.
who was Mayne, had been when she had
visited him in copmany with the girl
Della to answer an advertisement in which
he offered to adopt young girl and pro-
vide for her. Mayne. the witness stated.
had told her he had sufficient means to
educate the child and would eventually
adopt her. In regard to the arrangements
with him Mrs. Shipton stated that she
had not talked with Mayne as she had
left her daughter Della to arrange all
that On cioss-examination she admitted
that,she then knew nothing of the de.
fendans, and furthermore she had not at
tempted to :learn anything concerning
him, all OF the arrangements having been
made with the girl. Mayne had told her
that Loftus was not his correctanam as
he had only assumed it on account OF
family reasons. Her daughters left San

they had lived on the corner of Fifteenth

DESTRUCTIVE FIRES.
Flames in the Pennsylvania Oil Fields Do

BRADFORD, Pa, June 4.-The woods
about Ormsby are on fire and a number
of oil rigs have been destroyed. All
communication has been cut off. Fires
are also reported along the New York,
Lake Erie e Western railroad as far
as Allegheny, n. Y. On the Buffalo,
Rochester Il Pittsburgh road at Dent,
the property of the Emery Oil Co. is
threatened. Oil rigs all through that
section have been burned. as well as
millions of feet of standing timber.
The most fear is felt at Routherford
Run, where 1000 pounds of nitro
glycerine is stored.
Passengers who arrived here last
night over the Pittsburgh &c Western
road say the woods for 10 miles in the
oil field is roaring mass of flames.
Conductor Tanks says the people on
the oil leases are fleeing for safety,
but the fire spread so quickly that he
cannot see how all of them could
have been saved. So far as reported
only seven oil bumpers are missing.
Everything between Iron Run and
Russell City, Pa, is burned, including
al rigs and tanks of the Elk Oil Co.
station and Standard pump station.
Fire has crossed the railroad at Rus
sells and is sweeping everything be-
fore it, with a strong wind from the
west. If the wind does not change
Russell CITY will be wiped out.
