SHE TELLS HER STORY
Mrs. Tunnell Removes All Doubt of Dominic
Browns Guilt.
She Tells of the Love Letters and How
She Was Paid to Disappear
During the Trial.

SAN FRANCISCO. August AFTER
mary months of waiting and of evasion. of
hurried flight from town to town IN Cali
fornia and across the southern border.
Mrs NJ. F. Tunnel has consented to tell
the story Of her real relations with the
Rev. DIR. c. o. Brown and Matte Over
man, and to explain why she fled at the
very moment when her presence was need
ed to dispel the shadow of scandal or to
condemn the pastor who was seriously ac-
cused.
Mrs. Tunnel is the last witness to speak,
and, as far as fac,s are concerned, the tes-
timony she gives closes the great case.
She explains the important points upon
which the clerical judges of Dr. Brown
were in doubt. She removes the elements
CT uncertainty that made the ecclesiastical
court hesitate before pronouncing final
Judgment of condemnation. She fled from
San Francisco, she says, to shield DIR.
Brown from the consequences of his own
guilt. She says she knew of the love be-
tween Matte Overman and the pastor and
would have revealed her knowledge If she
had been summoned to the witness stand.
She says that DR.. Brown paid her eX-
penses while she was away, and when she
returned tried to induce her to go to Cen
trail America. She tells when and where
she secured the famous letters from Mat
tie Overman, and for the first time ex-
plains how they passed from her possess
sion into the keeping of man who allowed
them to be published.
She traces in detail the career Of Matte
Overman. as she learned to know it
through the confidence Of her young
friend. The recital lifts the veil from
the home of the pastor, and shows how he
struggled to save his pulpit and Lis good
name.

over the proposition to compel the Metro
politan railroad to maintain a fla gman at
its intersection with the Capital Traction
Company at 7th and B streets, that Mr.
Phillips be informed Immediately that the
Commissioners proposed to settle the case
today.
Mr. Wilson and President Phillips were
on hand when the case was called, but
President Phillips carried his point, and
the case went over until Tuesday next He
gave his reason that the absence Of
Commissioner Truesdell was the principal
cause; the other was that Attorney Wilson
had left a valuable paper behind.
The case went over as suggested by Mr..
Phillips.
Before a final decision was reached, how
ever, regarding the postponemeIt, Attor-
ney Wilson briefly rehearsed the question.
He set forth that Waterman was rot
needed at the crossings of rapid transit
roads; that such a system was old and
antiquated The signal system between
motormen was the advanced thing. He had
received statements from the presidents

DEMANDED A RANSOM.
Romantic Tale of a Honolulu Million
nire i'm sun Francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, August flames
Campbell, the millionaire sugar planter of
Honolulu, who mysteriousy dropped out of
sight for two days this week says he was
imprisoned and robbed by Oliver w. Win
tkrop, who attempted to obtain the capital
lists signature to a $4,000 check as the
price of his liberty. Winthrop, who was
tried and acquitted last year on a charge of
poisoning a woman in Laurel Hill cemetery
of which he was assistant superintendent,
has disappeared. No trace can be found of
his confederate.
Campbell says Winthrop decoyed him to
his house on slight pretext. Suddenly he
says, masked man rushed into the room,
and pointing a revolver at Campbelrs
head, ordered him TO throw up his hands.
Campbell says he leaped at his assailant
and felled him to the floor. The man was
daZed, almost stunned but leveling his re-
volver again at Campbell, fired. The mill
lonaire says the bullet graZed his temple
and passed through his hat into the wall.
Campbell sprang at the man again, but be-
fore he could reach him he was knocked
down by Winthrop, who struck him over
the head with some heavy instrument. The
two men then pounced on Campbell, and
bound, handcuffed and gagged him. They
lifted him from the floor to bed and
strapped him to 1t. His feet and hands
were tied to the four corners of the bed,
and chain was passed over his body anu
fastened to staples driven into the floor
Captain of Detectives Lees, In his investi-
CATION afterward, found the evidence of
this. Cords were passed around Camp
bells body and drawn SO tight that he
could not move. For twelve hours Camp
bell was kept in this position the gag being
In his mouth all the time. Tuesday MORN
ing the gag was removed with the caution
that he would be killed IL he made an,
noise. He was told that he would have 10
sign check or order for S2O,UU before he
would be released. He was shown a docu-
ment which they asked him TO sign and he
was also ordered to write note to his
Wlfe asking her to cash the check and TO
give the money to the bearer without ask
Ing any questions. Campbell says he re-
fused to even read the paper, telling his
captors that he did not care what they did
to him.
When the newspapers published the fact
That Campbell had disappeared the mil
fonaire says. his captors became frightened
and after dark released him. The police
have description of Winthrop's confed
crate, but no clew to his whereabouts.

The St. Louis, Swift Passage.

NEW YORK, August THE American
line steamer st. Louis was sighted south
Of Fire Island at 10 o'clock this morning
The westward record Of the st. Eouis was
six days, nine hours. thirty-six minutes
and she had until 6:26 this evening to equal
that time. She will. however, probably
reach Sandy Hook lghtship at about 1:3O
this morning, her time of passage being
six days, two hours and forty minutes
about seven hours better than her previous
best westward record.
The st. Louis eclipses all previous South
ampton records. June her sister ship, st.
Paul, made the run in six days, five hours
and thirty-two minutes, the best record up
to that time. The st. Louis has cut that
down by about three hours.
