Secretary Taft Will Handle the Affair,
and if Accusations Stand the Re-
called Minister May Go
to Chile

WASHINGTON, April 29.-Secretary
Taft has received instructions from the
president to call Minister Bowen. now
at Caracas, to Washington; Minister
Russell, minister to Colombia, to Cara
cas-, and Mr. Barrett, now minister at
Panama, to Colombia. 1t is stated that
If Mr.. Bowen's action relative to the
charges affecting Assistant Secretary
Loomis are not subject to criticism 1t
is the presidents purpose to send him
as minister to Chile and then probably
as ambassador to Brazil.
Mr.. Bowen will make his statement to
Secretary Taft, who is disposed to deal
with the case himself and not add 1t to
the bulk of important business which
will confront the president on his return
TO the capitol,
Secretary Taft also sent a cablegram
to Minister Bowen today stating the
reasons for his summons to Washing
ton. They are in brief: First, Mr.
Bowen had filed charges against Mr.
Loomis; second, the publication of
those charges in the New York Herald;
third, Mr.. Loomis' complete denial;
fourth. Mr. Loomis' counter charge that
Mr.. Bowen had secured that publica
tion, and, fifth, Mr., Loomis' desire to be
confronted by Mr. Bowen here. The
secretary added: "If all goes well you
may return to the diplomatic service"

HARRY BUNKERS
FOUND GUILTY
JURY RETURNS. VERDICT UPON
FIFTH BALLOT
PRISONER REMANDED TO JAIL
Will Be Sentenced Next Monday, Un-
less the Motion for a New
Trial Should Be
Allowed
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO, April 29.-Harry
Bunkers, the expelled state senator
from San Francisco, was found guilty
as charged today. and unless a motion
for a new trial be allowed, he will be
sentenced to serve from one to fourteen
years in state prison next Tuesday
morning at 10 o'clock.
When the verdict was returned
Bunkers paled. 1t was the first time
during the progress of the trial that he
gave evidence of feeling. Yet it was
not fear that was in his face; rather ii
was an expression of incredulity. He
rallied quickly and during the discus
sion on the question of filing a new
bond, which finally resulted in his
being remanded to the sheriff and
locked up in the county Jail, he showed
only ordinary interest in the pro-
ceedings.
The court charged the jury at p. m.
and it retired at 1913. 1t took five bal
lots First, acquittal 8, blank one,
guilty s; second, 0 to 8; third, to 2;
fourth, to 1; fifth, guilty.
At 1905 the verdict was handed in.
The court fixed May 8, for sentence.
Subsequently, by request of defendant,
this was modified to read May 2, 10 a.
IN. A motion in arrest of Judgment
Will then be made, and If it is denied
sentence will be pronounced.
Bunkers pleaded to be allowed to go
on his present bond. the district at
torney having moved that he be re-
manded to the custody of the sheriff
The court said 1t was a question for
the district attorney who was familiar
with all relations of the case, while the
court knew 1t only within the lines of
the trial. There is a doubt, he said,
as to the present bond being good for
appearance to take judgment. The
district attorney said that in view Of
that doubt he would insist upon his
motion and the court ordered the de-
fendant into custody.
The sheriff permitted him to go with
deputy to telephone to his wife in
San Francisco. and soon after he was
behind the bars in the county iail.

Narrow Escape From
Death
OTHER FATALITIES NEAR BY
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
LAREDO, Tex, April 29.-Sixteen
people were killed and scores injured
III Laredo by a tornado which tore
through the city late last night.
Rumors of others killed in places out
side Laredo are heard, but as yet lack
confirmation. The property damage is
large.
The damage wrought at the Laredo
seminary is severe Not one of the
group of magnificent buildings which
GO to make up that institution, escaped
damage.
The escape from death of the teach
ers at present quartered in the institu-
tion is considered miraculous, as the
walls of some of the buildings which
they occupied were completely demol-
ished. Mrs Easily, one of the teach
ers, was heroically rescued by several
cadets of the institution, who lowered
her by rope from a second story.
She was badly bruised.
The Mexican National hospital build
ing had the roof lifted. from the edifice
and it will require much time to re-
pair the building for patients.
A trip through the town fails to
show a locality that has not suffered
more or less from the storm. Trees,
fences, telegraph and telephone poles.
corrugated roofs, chimneys and walls,
and debris of all Imaginable kinds
strew the streets.
The city authorities are at work
clearing away the wreckage of the
storm and tonight the city began TO
resume it's customary tranquil appear
ance. The lineman are at work en-
deaVoring to straighten out the tangle
of wires and 1t is believed that within
two days the electric light service can
be resumed. 1t is hoped to re-estab-
llsh telegraph communication at least
partially within two days.
Fatalities in New Laredo
Conditions in New Laredo, across
the Rio Grande river, are similar. 1t
is not officially known how many
dead or injured there are at that city,
but it is stated there are five. The
five known dead added to the list of
dead on this side of the river would
bring the number of dead i'm both cities
up to twenty-one persons.
The storm made its appearance from
the southwest in the neighborhood Of
Pampasas. Mexico, seventy-two miles

Special TO The Herald.

Special to The Herald
OMAHA, Neb., April 20-Mae c.
Wood, a former clerk in the postofice
department in Washington, who was
said to have brought suit for breach
Of promise against United States Sena-
tor Thomas c. Platt, shortly before his
marriage to Mrs. Lillian r. Janeway,
began action here today in the district
court against Robert Wynne consul
general to London; william Loeb, sec
retary to President Roosevelt and ].
Martin Miller, United States consul at
AK la Chappelle, France.
She alleges they conspred and
wrongly deprived her of the manu-
script of a book which she had COM
piled, entitled Love Letters of
Boss" which was composed of YER
batim extracts from letters written to
her by Senator Platt; that defendants
also illegally deprived her of the orig
inal letters upon which the book was
based. She demands judgment against
the defendants for S35 900 on the ground
that the manuscript and letters were
worth that amount as a foundation for
other literary products.
In the complaint filed today, which
apparently was written by Miss Wood,
she alleges that in 1903 she was engaged
to marry Platt and that he pretended
to be very much in love with her. On
April 10 of that year, she declares, when
the engagement was about to be can
celled on account of the senator's con-
duct, in order to make a living and OBJ
tain compensation for peculiar humil-
iation and prosecutions" she deter
mined to publish verbatim autographs
of the SILLY love expressions contained
in the said letters which were mixed
with political animosities and news"
She also prepared and added to the
manuscript her own replies to the sena.
tors letters as nearly as she could re-
member them. The defendants heard of
this, she says, and Miller, a detective,
was put on the case. Under promise
that he could get the book published
she gave the manuscript to Miller
Then he showed the secret service
credentials and ordered her to give up
all the letters written to her by Senator
Platt and Lillian r. Janeway. She says
she went to w. A. Hummell's house and
there turned over to Miller some of the
papers in her possession.

HUSBAND CHARGED
WITH FORGERY
-----.----------
B. w. MUIR HAS r. J. SEPUL-
VEDA ARRESTED
WIFE MAY SUE FOR DIVORCE
Trials and rrlbulatlo0s q the Late
John h. Mu'rs Widow, Who
Married Youo3 spaolard, Said
to Be Numerous
WIFE MAY SUE FOR DIVORCE
to Be Numerous

p. j. sepulveda of Long Beach, the
young husband of the widow Of the
late John A. Muir of Los Angeles, is
In the county JAIL charged by his step
son, B. w. Muir, with having forged
his wife's name to check for 5000 on
the First National bank of this city.
In Long Beach the Muir boys declare
their mother will commence action for
divorce at once.
Sepulveda was married to Mrs. Muir
shortly after the death of her husband,
a little over a year ago, and since that
time, 1t is alleged, she has had no end
of trouble with her youthful spouse.
1t is asserted that Sepulveda has been
cruel to her.
Arrested Once Before
In the complaint filed yesterday B.
w. Muir alleges that the check bearing
the forged name of his mother was
drawn March IL and cashed by the
State Bank and Trust company of Los
Angeles, and that the forgery was dis
covered when the paper was sent back
to the Long Beach bank and payment
refused. At the time Sepulveda was
arrested by complaint of the State
bank, but as Mrs. Sepulveda de-
posted a sum in the Long Beach bank
sufficient to cover the check her hus-
band was released.
Shortly after the first arrest, alleges
the new complaint Mrs. Sepulveda
was induced to deed in trust to her
husband dot at Sixth place, Long
Beach, valued at $500, and it is
claimed that he sold it without author
ity. The Sepulvedas then made a trip
east and 1t was not until their return
that Mrs. Sepulveda discovered her lot
had been sold.
Muir alleges that about the same
time he and his brother discovered that
Sepulveda was abusing their mother
and decided it was time to call a halt.
They declared that Sepulveda has Sc
creted some diamonds belonging to
his wife, so yesterday secured search
warrant and got possession of the
gems.
Old Charge Revived
Yesterday the old forgery charge
was revived and Sepulveda was again
arrested. He was arraigned before
Justice of the Peace Brayton and his
bail fixed at $780, The examination
was set for May at 10 a. m.
When Sepulveda and Mrs. Muir
were married, April Z, 1904, in Los An
geles, there was considerable attention
attracted to the case because Sepul-
veda had said he was marrying Mrs.
Muir to protect her from her sons. The
Muirs now declare their mother has
had enough of Sepulveda's IS kind of pro-
lection and that she will sue for di-
vorce.
Mrs. Sepulveda's first husband was
one of the best known railroad men in
the southwest, having been division
superintendent of the Southern Pacific,
and at the time of his death general
manager of the Los Angeles Railway
company.
At the time of the marriage Mrs. Muir
was about so years old, while Sepul-
veda was less than half her age.

ALL RUSSIA CELEBRATING
RISEN CHRIST
NO RIOT MARS THE FESTIVAL
Ceremonies Attended by Enormous
Masses of People, and DeVout
Enthusiasm Is Manifested
on Every Side
BY Associated Press.


ST. PETERSBURG, April 3O.-Easter
day, Russia's greatest day of joy and
peace, was ushered in with none of the
disorders and rioting that were dread
ed AS for centuries past the throngs
OF the Russian faithful throughout the
empire gathered at midnight in and
around the cathedrals, churches and
shrines to greet the risen Lord, and to
mark the end of the Lenten gloom and
sadness of passion week with illumlna-
'tions, the pealing of bells and shouts
Of "Halleluiah! Christ is risen! He is
risen indeed!" Nothing could better
illustrate the deep devotion of the Rus
sian folk than the universal participa-
ton in the midnight festival.
, Though for weeks the people had
been fed with rumors that the Ter
roists and Revolutlonists intended to
signalize the festival with a series Of
bomb outrages throughout the empire,
up to o'clock this morning no in
stance of such an attempt, which would
be sure to bring down upon the party
Russian nation, has been reported and
1t is believed the rumors were founded
only on fears.
The credulous authorities took pre-
cautions on a grand scale, as If the
reports of plots to destroy the Easter
gladness were true, and in Moscow
and other disaffeCted centers strong
forces of troops were held in readiness
for any possible emergency. The
governors of practically all the prov
inces have issued proclamations de-
claring that there is no basis for
alarm and the government has an
nounced it's ability and it's intention to
preserve order throughout the week,
especially on Monday, when disorder
is chiefly apprehended.
czar Did Not Attend
The absence of the emperor from
the midnight services in either Of his
capitals diminished interest, but the
was carried out in all its
elaborateness and stateliness.
The main feature of the service,
namely, the procession of the clergy to
the tomb where the interment of the
Savior was enacted on Friday afternoon
and the discovery that the tomb is
empty, the search around the church
