who found relief"
Mrs. H. P. G.. Carnes, one of the
best-known ladies in Butler, Pa, says:
For nearly three years I was under
the doctors care, a constant sufferer
from female weaknesses in the most
aggravated form"
Medicine did me no good and my
suffering was so great that at times L
felt that death would be relief
"At last our druggist recommended
me to try a remedy about which I had
heard much. but knew little
II took his advice and before had
finished one bottle, was astonished at
the marvellous change it made in my
health"

The indications are that Major Moore
will have to go also. The report of
Special Agents Linck and Smith can
not be ignored. 1t substantiates prac-
tically all that The Call has printed
about Moore's relations with type
writer's and other women. Assistant
Secretary Howell has not yet con-
sidered Moore's case, but the recon-
mendation of the Supervising Special
Agent, Mr.. Chance, will be that Moore
be relieved from duty. Mr.. Chance de-
clined to discuss MOOre's case, but The
Call correspondent learned from an
other treasury official tonight that this
will be Chances Recommendation.
There is no doubt that it will be car
ried out by Assistant Secretary Howell
When seen tonight the latter was
willing to discuss Meredith's case, but
said he had not had time to examine
the report in the case of Moore, that it
was now on his desk and he might be
able to- examine it tomorrow. Con-
corning Meredith, he said: 1.-The report
of Special Agents Linck and Smith cor
roborated Moore's charges against
Meredith. There is no doubt in our
minds that he was not a good officer
and should not have been intrusted
with the Chinese bureau duties. The
letter directing that he be relieved from
duty is en- route to San Francisco and
should reach there in the course of a
few days. 1t is brief, does not enter
into the history Of the case nor the
findings. but merely directs his dis
missal for cause"
Does the fact that Moore's charges
against Meredith We're sustained indi-
cate that Mr.. Moore will be exoner-
ated?"
by no means" replied Assistant
Howell, for the charges against Moore
are Of entirely a different nature and
have nothing whatever to do with
Meredith's case. Moore was charged
with conducting himself in an ungentle-
manly way with women"
Would the department feel justified
in taking cogniEance of such matters
provided his official duties had been
performed satisfactorily. In other
words, would these charges Of sus-
tained) be considered sufficient ground
for his removal?"
Il think So" said Howell. But re-
member that have not yet seen the
report in Major MOOre's case. and con-
sequentIy do not know what action I
shall take
Supervising Special Agent Chance
was then seen. He said that propriety
forbade his discussion of Major MoOre's
case until the Assistant Secretary of
the Treasury has examined the report.
Have you examined it yourself?"
yes"
viii you make any recommendation
to Assistant Secretary Howe1l?"
Probably So" said he. 1T is a part
of my duty
Mr.. Chance spoke of these recon-
mendations as unpleasant duties" all
of which indicates beyond doubt that
Major Moore will also have to walk
the plank.

The streets were patroled, although
Tagalos were expelled days ago. The
flames extended their sinister refiec-

appearance of a fiendish festival. The
inhabitants passed CHASTITY night.
The Americans are universally cursed
and execrated.
AT daylight the feet continued its
work of destruction, and marines dis
embarked on the beach a number of
quick firing guns. The troops then re-
crossed the river to protect the remain

o'clock General Otis, from the tower
of the cathedral, viewed with a tele-
scope the fire area surrounding the
town.
There is extreme scarcity of provi-
sions The walls of the suburbs are
placarded with Death to Yankees and
Respect foreigners. The weather is
very dry and the river and brooks low

water, and the absence Of fire-fghting

REV, DR. CRABB
WOOED HER NOT
Miss Perry Denies the
Impeachment.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Feb. 24.-Miss Carrie
Perry, who DR.. Crabb declared had
been thrown in his way by a special
act of divine providence to receive his
ardent love, was the chief attraction in
the Crabb divorce case to-day She
was petite, pretty and modest. and she
ever wooed her.
There was a falling off in attendance,
still there was the usual coterie of fe-
male admirers of the minister at the
trial. No one appears to console
and comfort Mrs. Crabb, yet the little
woman bears up wonderfully we'll
The question of the admission of a
part of the written confession by Dr.
Crabb that he loved Miss Perry was
the first considered this morning. Judge
Kittredge decided to admit it with the
explanation for the missing part by Mrs
Crabb. Attorney Hassett then tried to
introduce DR.. Crabb's Lyrics of the
Golden West" The poems ITO Esther
and Esther, the Ideal.' it was said.
referred to Miss Perry. In these there
are warm protestations of love, and it
was intended to prove that the plain
tiff in reality addressed them to the
young lady. The court refused to ad-
nit the book as evidence.
Miss Carrie Perry was then called to
the stand by the defense. All eyes cen
tered on her. She created a good i'm
preston and DR.. Crabb smiled approx
ingly. She denied that the doctor had
ever made love to her or proposed mar
riage. She admitted having attended a
lecture with him in San Francisco. He
had written to her that he and Mrs
Crabb We're coming down and asked
her to accompany them. DR.. Crabb
came alone, however, and said his wife
was unable to accompany him, owing
to illness. Miss Perry said she had sent
her picture TO Mrs. Crabb, and not to
the latters husband, and that this was
the one that was destroyed. The wit
ness had never received a letter from
Mrs. Crabb requesting her to cease cor
respondence with her husband Mrs.
Goodrich, matron Of the sanitarium
where the witness was employed as a
nurse, told her Mrs. Crabb was much
disturbed because she thought the wit
ness was paying attention to Dr. Crabb
A letter came for her in the DOCTOR
handwriting and at the suggestion of
the matron it was returned unopened.
Mrs Mary Perry, mother of Miss Car

Mrs. Osborne. The latter was janitress

eyes.
Both sides then rested. Attorney
Burchard, for DR.. Crabb, wanted to
submit the case without argument but
Attorney Hassett would not consent to
this. Argument will commence on Tues
day morning.

THE BULGARIA
REACHES PORT
Was Believed to Have
Gone Down.
Copyrighted. 1899, by the Associated Press


PONTA DELGADA, Feb. 24-The
Hamburg American line steamer Bull
garia, Captain Schmidt, from New
York on January % for Hamburg, pre-
viously reported in great distress by the
British steamer Weehawken, 800 miles
from the Azores Islands, entered this
port this morning under her own steam
and reported all we'll on board.
Subsequent to the departure of Sec
ond Mate G. Scharges and three others
OF the crew who were picked up at sea
by the British steamship Vittoria and
landed at Baltimore, the weather be-
came worse and salvage operations had
to be abandoned. All day and night
the crew and passengers of the Bulga-
ria jettisoned cargo until February l.
During the afternoon of February
William Koenig, a sailor, jumped over
board and was never seen again.
The weather on the morning of Feb
ruary 8 is described as fearful, and
there was six or seven feet Of water in
the hold. On the morning of February
the weather became calm, and 107
dead horses were thrown overheard
The swell was very high until February
10. By that time No. 4 hold, which was
full of grain, had fourteen feet Of water
in 1t and the pumps were foul and I'M
able to work.
Stormy weather recommended on the
afternoon of February II and lasted
until February IA, when the British
steamer Antillfan, Captain F'ost, from
Liverpool on February 4 for New Or
leans, appeared. The commander of
the Bulgaria asked the captain of the
Antillian to take the disabled steamer
in tow. This the captain of the An
lillian tried to do and a hawser was
made fast between the two steamers
between and 8 o'clock that morning.
but at noon the hawser carried away.
The Antillian succeeded in again TAX
ing the Bulgaria in tow, but once more
the hawser carried away. The Antil-
liam stood by the Bulgaria until the
morning of February Is, when she pro-
ceeded on her voyage.
In the meantime the crew of the
Bulgaria had been working necessarily
in efforts to repair the disabled rudder
of the steamer, and at 10 o'clock on the
morning of February II the Bulgaria
was again under control. By noon Of
February % she had made 226 miles.
and at noon on February %, 240 miles
more had been covered. The balance
of the distance here, 1914 miles, was COW
cred by 1880 this morning.
During the storms and in working
the passengers and crew Of the Bull
garia sustained many injuries. num-

The Cattle Quarantine.


A bill has been introduced in the

passes, rs is more than probable. will

Tie bill purposes to exclude from

which are free from the infection
which prevails in most Of the coun-
ties south OF Sacramento. r.
The passage of the bill referred to

from there ship by rail to Nevada for
feeding, preparatory to Shipment for
