makes complaint and says that on or about the
18th day OF May, 1895, at and in the City and
County of San Francisco, State of California,
the crime of libel, a misdemeanor, was COM
mitted by f. K. Ollie, !. J. Truman, George T.
GadeD and D. G. Dexter, who then and there
wiIlfully, knowingly, unlawfully ana mali
ciously Intending 10 injuTe and impeach the
OF affisnt did write and cause TO be written
and published OF and concerning affiant false
and scandalous writing, and then and there
caused the same TO be published in the San
Francisco CALL, newspaper OF general circu-
lation printed, published and circulated in
said City and County, in the words following,
TO wit: Her body (meaninR the body of one
Lottie Hunsingerl was unlawfully taken from
the Morgue to a private undertaking establish
ment and every effort made on the Coroner's
part (meaning on the part OF affiant) to
smother the scandal and assist the million
aire.' The said article was part of the article
in the words following, to wit:
"a bout May II, 1883, Lottle HunSinger took
poison in the bachelor apartments of a mil
liOnaIre in this City. Her body was unlaw-
dertaking establishment and every effort made
on the COToners (meaning the atlantis part to
smoother the scandal and assist the million
aire.
"The girls mother and friends have as
sured one OF our members that much money
was used by the millionaire, and this was
openly charged al the time, and 1t became a
matter OF common notoriety."
That said article was Intended to mean and
did mean that said Lottie Hunsinger had died
in the apartments of a millionaire, and that
affiant who was then and there the Coroner of
said City and County, had not performed his

court records in the lease of Millionaire Nc
Laughlln, who committed suicide, say that
Mallady charged $1,000 for embalming. OBJ
lectlon was made TO this, and Mallady appeared
in Jud Murphy's court and testified that he
was only permitted to retain 5000; the re-
malnder was given to Coroner Livingston"
The said false and defamatory article meaning,
and was intended to mean, by said parties that
the said Mallady, who was then and there an
undertaker in said City and County, had paid
TO affiant the sum of $500, which he had ex-
torted from the heirs and from the estate of
one Mclaughlin, deceased, and that said sum
had not been earned by said Livingston, but
had in effect, been eXtorted from said Mallady
by said Livingston as blackmail.
Afiant further says that all of said matter,
as published by said defendants as aforesaid, is
and was untrue and unpriy1leged and was not
published for good motives OF justifiable ends,
| but was then and there printed and published
and circulated as aforesaid with the 1ntentlon
thereby TO expose said atfiant to and bring him
into public hatred, contempt and rld1cule,
contrary to the form, force and erect OF the
statute in such eases made and provided and
against the peace and dignity or the people OF
the State of California. And this complainant
upon oath accuses the said E. K. Ollie, |. j.
Truman, George T. Gaden and D.. G. Dexter OF
having committed said crime, and prays that
the said accused may be brought before a
magistrate and dealt with according to law.
The four defendants had been apprised
of DIR. Levingston's intention by an article
i'll yesterdays CALL, and accompanied by
one of their attorneys, Charles w. Reed,
they called at the Central police station
and surrendered themselves. Attorney
Reed had previously obtained an order
from Judge Joachimsen for the release of
DIR. Ollie on his own recognizance, and the
three others had presented their bonds of
$500 each to the Judge and received orders
of discharge. About dozen prominent
citizens had gathered in the Mayors office
each eager to go on their bonds.
Their bondsmen were as follows: w. H.
Little and NJ. c. Hawks for Mr.. Truman;

have taken the box to the restaurant with
him. He might have crossed with the 1
O'Clock boat or the one later. He was not
sure which.
The statement of Moore, the hackman, to
Detective Seymour on Monday was that he
saw Mr.. Buck waiting for the train at
Seventh and Adellne streets at AS P. NJ.
The family state that he did not leave the
house till 2:30 P. NJ, so that there are con-
tradlctions as to the time he crossed over
to the City after reaching home from Sac
ramento.
The police are anxious to find out what
Mr.. Bucks movements were on Saturday
prior to his fatal accident, but for what
purpose they decline to state.
Raleigh Barcar, the proprietor of the
Vacaville Reporter, who was the gentle
man that accompanied Senator Buck to
Oakland last Saturday morning, was inter
viewed at Vacaville yesterday. Mr.. Barcar
said that he came across Mr.. Buck shortly
after entering the train at EImira and i'm
mediately commenced a conversation with
him on the various topics of the day.
Mr. Buck seemed in the best of spirits
and apparently in good health, and at no
time was anything said that led Mr.. Bar
car for moment to think his mind was
burdened with anything unusual Mr.
Buck left the train at Sixteenth street,
Oakland, and nothing further was thought
of the matter by Mr.. Barcar until after the
news of the sad accident reached Vaca-

pearance taken suddenly ill with nervous
prostration, and hurried away to Los
Gatos, where nerves are made whole and
life prolonged to an interminable age.
Her ladyship went through the morning
rehearsal and then disappeared like liv-
ing figure behind the stage curtain.
This rapid exit not on the bills was
planned by Douglas ''tender and true" to
get himself and wife out of sight of her
mother, who desires to keep the new Brit
ish noblewoman on the stage, and the
manager of the Auditorium Theater, who
holds contract over his star actress. Mrs.
Douglas, as she is known in anti-monar-
chical circles, yesterday received a sum of
money from her husbands Eastern
friends, and, like a dutiful wife, carried
the coin to her good man, who is not at
Los Gatos, but in some quiet retreat near
San Jose.
The aforesaid contract which Manager
Moore suspends over the hidden couple
was signed by Mrs. Mooney two weeks ago
several days after her daughters birthday,
consequently it is held that she is not
legally bound by its conditions.
The marriage in the church of which so
much has been said is only part of the free
theatrical advertising which Lady Douglas
has received. 1t will never take place as
the young people are legally welded and
are satisfied with that

they departed.
The case was set for this morning. Reel
B. Terry will appear as special counsel for
the prosecution on behalf of DIR. Leving-
ston, and Attorneys Gavin McNab and
c. n. Reed will represent the defendants.
Mr.. Gaden, in speaking of the arrest,
said that it was farce. The statements
in the article complained of were made
under the advice of their attorneys, and
they could have been supplemented by
many others.

HE SwEARs OUT A WARRANT
Rev. DR.. Ollie and Three Others
Arrested on the Charge Of
Criminal Libel.

A case that will prove one of the most
celebrated in the history of criminal libel in
this City was commenced yesterday.
Yesterday morning DR.. Marc Loving
ston appeared in Judge Joachimsen's
court and swore out warrants for the arrest
of Rev. E. R. Ollie, 1. ]. Truman, George
Z. Gaden and D. G. Dexter, the committee
OF the Civic Federation to whom is dele
gated the duty of purifying municipal
affairs, and who sent to Governor Budd a
statement embodying their reasons why
DR.. Livingston should not receive the APP
pointment of Health Officer. The COM
plant reads as follows:
Personally appeared before me this 4th day
OF June, 1895, Marc Livingston, who, on oath,

death. He is Daniel Harrington, the old.
est child of Timothy Harrington, who
brought his family from Prince Edward
Island so many years ago. He is ship
carpenter and two years ago came here
from Chicago. He worked here five
months, and, not liking California, went
East somewhere and has not been heard OF
by his family since.
Captain Jack Harrington was another
brother. He died some years ago. He
was drillmaster at Camp Douglas once
and served his country elsewhere during
the war. In Miss Harrington's parIor
there hung six large portraits. One was OF
Captain Jack, another was of herself, and
the remaining four were honored prelates
of the Catholic church, among whom was
Archbishop Riordan.

duty as such officer, but had designedly at
circumstances attending the death of said
Lottie Hunsinger.
Further, that at said time and place and in
PENDANTS did willfully, unlawfully and ma
liciously publish of and concerning affiant the
following:
1.-THE Morgue was in such filthy condition
during Levingstons (meaning the affiant's) ad-
ministration that DIR. Blach (meaning DR..
Blach who was City Physician at said time) re-
fused to make autopsy until the Morgue was
clean"
Said article was false and defamatory, and
was intended by defendants to mean and did
mean that affiant was faithless in the perform
ance of his duties as Coroner of the said City
and County of San Francisco.
Further, at said time and place said defen-
dants as azores aid did maliciously publish of
and concerning affiant the following false,
malicious and defamatory matter. to wit: "The

The bride was elegantly attired in white
satin, duchesse, long train orange blossoms,
and the bridesmaids-Mi Seabrook and
Miss Ramsdell-were prettily arrayed in
pink striped satin and cream silk respec-
lively.
1t was very impressive ceremony. The
rooms were handsomely decorated and
rich and elegant costumes were worn by
| the ladies present. Mr.. and Mrs. Blinn
were kept from being present by the illness
of the former, but kilograms congratulatory
and strongly expressed showed the young
| groom's parents were with him heart and
soul and approved his choice of an actress
bride. The presents were numerous and
costly and the wedding supper was a

'slow pay" or slow in the payment of his
Just dues and obligations.
The alleged rating was published in the
Commercial Report, which purported to
tell the true commercial standing of people
rated.
The plaintiff says he had occupied a
responsible position as salesman in a
prominent San Francisco house for
eighteen years and had never been slow in
his payments. He declares that by reason
of the false rating of the Commercial Re-
port his credit has been greatly damaged,
his honesty questioned and his standing in

MR.. BUCK DEAD.
The Ex-State Senator Passes AWAY
Without Regaining Con-
SCiOuSneSS.

The death of l.. W. Buck, which occurred
at dawn yesterday morning, in Oakland
was made especially sad to his family and
his hosts of friends by the unfortunate con-
nection of his name with the Harrington
tragedy. Almost as for his life his family
prayed for at least brief spell of con-
seriousness and ease that would enable him
to tell the story that they wanted him to
tell more strongly than did the San Fran
cisco police.
But the end came at 5:15 A. NJ, without
the unfortunate victim of Saturdays acct
dent having spoken a word or having given
a faint sign of recognition to his heart
broken family.

jury gave the following verdict: ''The de-
