SAN RAFAEL, June 2.-One of the most atrocious and inhunlan crimes ever perpetrated upon dumb brute was witnessed here to-day, when Will liam Waning, a milk peddler, tied a piece of bale: rope around a bafky horses tongue and literally pulled that organ out by the roots. The act was committed directly under: the eyes. of William Crane, steward of the San Ra- fael Athletic Club. -:.
 E Waning, whose milkshop is situated on Fifth street, between e and D, was employing his odd time in hauling. a load of wood to the residence of T., H. Rush, and when nearly there the wheels of his wagon got damned against the curbstone in such a way that the horses pulled at a disadvantage. Van ing started to beat them and they baked: The mans curses called Crane, :Who lived across the street, to his win ::dow. Waning was then engaged in trying to pull the horses along by the ears. and already had the. rope hitched around. one animals tongue. Before MT. Crane could say a word in expos tulation, Waning grasped the rope, and with succession. of savage tugs pulled the horses tongue out: of+its mouth. by the roots.
 :. The: animal was shot immediately by people who came up at this juncture and the tongue, with the rope still :round 1t. was secured as evidence. Crane hastened to inform District At torney Martinelli, who had the perpe- trator of the fiendish act placed under. arrest on a charge. of cruelty to ani-:: mals. The District Attorney announces

 =. Hers is a remarkable history. She claims to have been married four or five years ago to H. J. Burroughs, an auctioneer widely known over the Uni ted States. Burroughs denies the ale gation with as much vigor as she as- serts it's truth. The woman has fol- lowed him from one end of the conti- nent to the other, starting from Los Angeles three years ago, and has. got into trouble at several places on ac- count of her unusual demonstrations toward him. At Cincinnati she was ferred. by Burroughs. She created scene after scene in court by denounc- ing everybody connected with the case. including the Judge, and when sent to jail for a few. days refused to eat.
 She was finally acquitted at Cincin- nati, whence, accompanied by her mother, she went to Fremont, Ohio where Burroughs mother lived. With out introduction, she bolted into the house and announced her intention of living there. She was arrested on d charge of assault, and the Mayor of Fremont fined her, and sent her. along with her mother. to the workhouse.

 Washington, June 2.
 The House, practically without de- bate, passed to-day. the urgency de- ficiency bill providing for emergency expenses of the army and navy depart ments, incident to war. It was based upon estimates received. recently from the departments, and carries items contemplated in the Philippine expedi- ton and the early movements upon Cuba.
 |; In committee of the whole Cannon ex- plained the presentation of the measure. He said it was the policy of the Commit tee on Appropriations to hold back the general deficiency bill until practicaIIy the close of the session, in order to catch up all items. that may develop as neces- .sary up to the latest moment of the ses- sion- Meantime the present bill was urgent and had been reported for present consideration because its items could not wait upon the general deficiency bill. In- cidentally he estimated the appropria- tions already made on account of the war and likely to develop as essential. in cluding the first six months of the com to a question from Dingley, Cannon said that the war would cost approxirnat ely $500 ,OoO 900, provided it should continue one year.

 The race is more for amusement than anything else, as the wager is that the last man to arrive at San Francisco must entertain the others at a banquet to cost not less than $2O0. After meeting in San Francisco they will go to Peru and. engage in various pursuits where openings for capital are offered. They intended going to the Klondike, but thought Peru a better stamping ground. All are sons of uilliOnaireS ::

Boston Embezzler Known to Have :, Sent Money to William Adams

l.. BOSTON, June 2-From information
 given out to-day by Chief Inspector
 Watts: it appears there is some reason for
 the belief that Fred T. Moore the al- t'leged embezzler of. s5O,0O0 from the Ma
 tional Bank of Commerce. is now in San Francisco or the Klondike region. The
 police are following every clew that can be found and it was learned to-day that on February 15 Moore sent 5000 to San Francisco and that 1t was receipted there ! for him by a friend. Instead of sending i 1t through the bank by which he was E employed he. Went:to the Third National Bank of this city and the money was te1egraphed by 1t to Wells, Fargo x Co 8 Bank in San Francisco. The money was E received: there all. right and Chief Watts
 has. a. receipt signed by one: William E Adams, who gave his address as 62 Sec :: What his relations to Moore. are is. of course.. matter of. conjecture. but the police seem to be of the opinion that Mopre was. either backing Adams in some mining Venture. or else. Moore real- ized trouble was. brewing for himself and wanted to: have:some money to fall back: upQn in case of disaster The San Fran cisco police have been communicates

 Gaines (D.) of Tennessee vigorously criticised the War Department for allow ing but seven days in which to receive bids for supplies. He said grave injus- tice was being done the South, and nota- bly Tennessee, in discriminating in favor of manufacturers of other sections.
 ."The main thing before us now is to pass this bill,' declared Cannon. '"The money cannot be spent until appropri- ated. Some gentlemen come here and cry out and complain because in a twinkling an army, fully equipped with tents, uni forms, provisions, guns and everything for comfort, is not ready now, and now here comes the cyclone from Tennessee and says, My God, you don't give us but seven days to bid,
 The reading of the bill at length pro- ceeded and 1t was passed unanimously without further debate.
 A number. of bills affecting the District of Columbia were passed, and at 1:52 o'clock the House adjourned.
