have the stars place in the drama, no odds
how he wind-up comes. For was it not
she that the Central American laid siege
to, and after all, that's the pith OF the
story, let the attorneys caterwaui as they
will.
Matters were opened by Dmond recit-
ing that he was born in Keokuk, Iowa,
studied law in San Jose, incorporated a
vapor-engine company, became q partner
with Barclay Henley and finally went il
alone about two years ago. DR.. Il, f.
Perrault introdu uced him 10 Miss Blair and
Mrs. Phillips last December, and then for
the first time the lawyer declared that he
heard the story of Barillas' wooing and
heartbreaking. AS he got it from the
woman's own lips it was something in
this wise:
Some time last June Ribas ap-
preached the cashiers kiosk in Gunst's s
cigar-etofe under the Baldwin Hotel and
asked Miss Blsir's permission to introd uce
his friend, General Barlias, TO her. The
introduction followed SO did flowers and
bouquets. The Guatemalan was an ar
dent lover. Two weeks from that time he
invited her TO the Delmonico restaurant
to dinner, and in the course of the feast
declared his passion and asked her to be-
come his wife, or rather ibas did, which
was the same thing, for Barillas couldn't
speak English and Miss Blair was at sea
In Spanish. Ribas was mutual translator
OF the feelings of the lovers, and after
pagne it was arranged that the wooer
and his interpreter should call next day
and make peace with the mother of the
tiancee. Mrs. Blair had just returned from
UKiah and at first was not inclined to look
with favor on the turn affairs had taken,
but alter hearing Rbas she was won over
to the cause and congratulations, tears
and blessing followed
Eisner was for details and he wanted to
hear every word that had passed between
Dimond and Miss Blair in Perraults
office. Dimond went over his narrative
step by step. At his first interview with
Miss Blair and her sister, they produced
the evidence of Barillas' protestations of
love in the shape OF forty eight letters,
half English, half Spanish, and seven
photographs. These Dimond duly pro-
duced and Eisner demanded them. Ach,
however, superciliously exacted promise
that they would be returned. Every body
seemed suspicious. and in the end Dimond
resolved to hang on TO these exhibits, and
contented himself with expressing his
willingness to read their contents into the
record.
These little difficulties temporarily ad-
ju ted, Dimond went back to the thread
of his narrative. He did not like the
look OF the case at first, but after he had

With all his pesos and acres of coffee
General Manuel L. Barillas was not a
model Lothario-that is, of course, If one
is disposed to believe the story of his love-
making second-handed. He had a habit
of tossing cigarette stumps playfully over
the carpet of his inamorata, when less
effusive lover would have proba bly, laid
them carefully on the piano to the an
guish of the varnish and the servant girl.
But possibly they do things differently
down in Central America.
But of his generosity no criticism can
be made, and in Iiberality that scatters
diamonds and dollars broadcast small de-
tails of etiquette in winning hearts may be
legitimately excused. For in the squabbie

O|R|G0 IS SAFE IN PORT,
The Big Four.Master Arrived
Last Night Almost a Month
Overdue.
A Few Days Ago 20 Per Cent Rel
surance Was Paid on Her
De aged by Gains.

Arthur Sewell's big four-masted steel
ship Dirigo is riding safely at anchor in
the bay off the foot of Vale jo-street wharf.
The vessel had been given up Tor lost. be-
ing twenty or thirty days overdue, but as
the underwriters were willing to gamble
on her fate 20 per cent reinsurance was
paid on her in Liverpool few days ago.
Prior to her arrival in this port last
evening the last sesn of the Dirigo
was in latitude 56 deg. south, 81 deg.
west. when she was passed by the British
ship Howth. The How.h arrived here
thirty days ago. and as her captain told a
story OF terrific hurricane he encoun-
tered rounding the Horn, it was pre-
sumed that the Dirigo foundered in that
storm.
II see no reason why much uneasiness
should have been entertained over the
fate of the Dirigo," said E. s. EIwell, first
mate OF the vessel, last night. I'm this
sage for sailing-ship from New York,
and we were out liz days. For a trip
around the Horn our voyage was un-
even,ful.
Shortly before we reached the Horn on
the Atlantic side the first accident of the
trip occurred. John Leonard, sailor,
fell from the topgallant halliards to
the deck ana fractured his skull. he
was carefully treated by DR.. Hang OF
Boston. who il travelling on the Dirigo for
his health. but he died in few days and
We buried him at sea. A few days after
Leonard's death we ran into the storm
encountered by the Howth.
"For three days the hurricane ragged and
we were frequently on our beam ends
The cargo OF merchandise and railroad
iron shifted, and it took two days TO trim
it We lost several sails. but no serious
damage to the vessel resulted. When the
gale subsided we were left with hardly
enough wind to fill our sails, and that
condition OF affairs prevailed during the
rest OF the frip.''

DIVORCE DENIED.

Judge HINT Refuses to Separate Isa'

Judge Hunt yesterday handed down q
decision in the divorce case of Isabella N.
Williams against Richard s. Williams,
which was q surprise and disa ppointmenI
to both parties to the litigation
Mrs. Williams sued for divorce on the
ground of cruelty, and proved that hel
husband had been extremely cruel at diff
ferent times. He filed e cross-com p amt,
demanding divorce on similar grounds
Of cruelty.
In the course of the trial it was shown
that Mrs. Williams drew pistol and tried
10 shoot her husband on streetcar, and
that she said she was sorry she failed to
kill him.
The court weighed all the facts, and
finding that both had been at fault de-
cided that neither is entitled to divorce
and so they must continue in their rela
ton of band and wife, no matter how
irksome the woke may be.

The window to find ont for himself If one
could distinctly ZEE the gateway from the

Mrs. Leake reiterated her statement
that she had told the truth and the Gov
ernor seemed to be deeply impressed by
her assertions.
From Mrs. Leake's house Cove ernor
Budd, accompanied by the Chief OF Police,
went to Mrs. Crossetts house at Twenty
fifth street and San Jose avenue. Mrs.
Crossett was a witness at the trial. She
rode on VaIencia-street car with Durrant

digested some of the letters he came to
the conclusion that Miss Blair had a
cause of action. On a second interview he
accepted the case. on contingent fee of
one-half the damages obtained.
Ribas was not a persona grata In the
coartship, notwithsta nding his useful
ness as interpreter, according to Dlmond.
Miss Blair, SO the lawyer said. spoke OF
him during the interview as that dirty
old Ribas," and subsequently Miss Blair
referred to him as a snake in the grass
and devil. When the expected remit
tances from Barilas during his trip to
Europe failed to arrive, Dimond declared
the Blair family intimated that Ribas was
Eocketing the money intended tor them.
But Ribas had his uses.
When the general wanted nice dinner
the interpreter was com mlssioned 10 order
it at the Palace Hotel and see that it
reached the Blair home. And when that
Delmonico dinner was over Ribas trans
lated the feelings of the Central American n
in this way: "Re admires you; he is very
much in love with you and desires to
make you his wife" At least that was
how Dlmond declared Miss Blair said it
was done.
Miss Blair kept company with Barllas
from June to August. when the coffee
baron left for Europe. Then came rumors
to her of another girl, and then it began
TO dawn upon neT Lldb sue Qdu Dceu ut-
serted.
Eisner asked Dimond if Miss Blair had
not told him she knew that Barillas was
married.
She did not" was the reply. ''She
told me she believed him a wldower. He
had once pulled out letter at the dinner
table, which he said was from his daugh-
tel. After that she never referred to his
domestic life, believing him, so she said,
to be widower. She wished to keep their
engagement secret. if possible. and only
two or three relatives knew of it. A
young lieutenant, who was calling on her,
broached the matter one night.
Dimond went again to the beginning OF
his tale AT his first interview with Miss
Blair, brought about by DIR. Perrault, who
was by the way his regular physician, he
learned that Barillas had betrayed her, in
addition to promising to marry her. He
had given her $500 on his departure to
Europe, as well as a credit at the White
House and City of Paris.
'''This dress is present from him. she
said" continued Dimond. He bought
her sealskln sacque at Liebes', worth
