Churches Reunited.

DR.. c.. E. Lukens yesterday O
evening the reunion Of the
Presbyterian and the Cumberland
States. By this union all s~ectionalism
is eliminated, leaving the Prebyte+
rian church as strong in the South
as in the North. DR.. Lukens also pre-
dicted that within a few years other
branches of the Presbyterian church
would unite with the parent organiza-
ton, making his church the largest
single Christian organization in the.
United States with the possible ex-
ception of the Roman Catholics. He
referred with qualification to the
fact that there is a tendency in all
churches to get together on the es-
sentials of Christian faith and works,
and described the reunion of the two
Presbyterian church as a step having
worldwide significance in the prog
ress toward a federation which viii
one day reunite not only branches of
single denominations, but will bind
all churches together in Christ. At
the evening service, Rev. Mr.. Hairless.
a former Cumberland Presbyterian.
assisted DR.. Lukens by giving a pre-
liminary historical sketch of the
church which had returned to it's
home after a hundred years of a
gelical work along lines which once
seemed impossible under the forms
cessions had finally been made by
both churches, and the natural ten
dency of growth and progress had
constantly brought them closer and
closer together, so that there was
nc longer any excuse for separation.
DIR, Lukens in impressive manner de-
scribed the scenes of rejoicing that
occurred at the DesMoines conven-
ton when the reunion was consum-
mated, and conveyed to the Roswell
congregation some of the enthusiasm
which he a himself experienced
when over two hundred thousand
members with churches, colleges
and schools were added to the Pres
byterian church in one day.

PEMBROKE MUST
Be TRIED OVER
Owing to Continued Illness
Of Juror NJ. MattOs a New
Beginning Is to Be Made
WILL MAKE THIRD TRIAL
This Time a Thirteenth Man
Will Be Sworn In to Act
as a Substitute, if Needed

OAKLAND, April 16-Owing to the con-
tlnued illness of Juror NJ. Mattos of Irv-
ipgton the jury engaged in the trial of
Percy Pembroke for completely in the
murder OF Thomas Cook at Fruitvale was
discharged by Judge w. H. Waste today.
and the trial must be gone over again be-
fore another jury.
The chances of Mattos ever being able
to go on with the trial are remote, and
as the case has been delayed for three
weeks on account of his illness Judge
Waste decided that the only thing to be
done was to begin with another jury.
The case will be called in the morning
and set for trial. To provide against any
such emergency recurring a thirteenth
juror will be sworn In and Will act as a
substitute to take the place OF any that
may fall by the way. The first jury dis
agreed and the second trial had reached
the argument stage when Mattos was
taken i'll. Each of the trials has con-
sumed three weeks, and every one con-
cerned in the case has been worn out with
the repeated strain.

COULD RAILWAY
CROSSING
Western Pacific Victorious
Over Southern Pacific in
Fight Before the Council
TRACKS TO INTERsECT
Decides That the New Line
Need Not Tunnel Under
the Roadbed of Rival

OAKLAND, April 1.-THE Western Pa
cifc Railroad. was victorious in it's clash
with the Southern Pacific over the cross
ing at First ard Chestnut streets when
the City Council tonight unanimously
passed to print an ordinance granting to
the former company a franchise connect
ing it's franchise on Third street with
that on ics property west of the Southern
Pacific yards. The Western Pacific in
sisted on grade crossing at First street,
and it's rival desired separate grades.
The Southern Pacific offered to go over
head six feet If the Western Pacific
would go down eighteen feet. This the
latter company positively refused to do
and Chief Engineer Mccartney of the
Western Pacific and Division Superin-
tendent Scott of the Southern Pacific
would neither agree to go up or down
twelve feet. Attorney c. E. Shook, rep
resenting the new road, said that it would
be impracticable to do either.
BY the terms of the ordinance that was
passed to print the crossing will be on
the regular grade, but the Western Pa
cific has stipulated that a proper block
system will be provided.
A petition of the property owners ia
voring the widening of Broadway from
Fourteenth to Fifteenth streets, that 1t
be ascertained whether the property be-
longed to the city, was referred TO the
City Attorney.

WOMAN FREED
IN FRAUD CASE
Police Judge SamuelS Holds
That the Evidence Against

Whether Victim Was After
Wife or Fabulous Wealth

OAKLAND. April 1e.-Another at

alleged TO use matrimonial bureaus and
reHtspape devoted 10 that cause 70
swfndle susceptible men failed this aft
ernoon when Police Judge Samuels dis
missed Martha Z. Odell, whose name
out OF the spot light of publicity is
Mrs. w. w. Henderson and who was
accused OF fraudulently inducing John
A. Horn 10 invest $500 in a mine in
Arnador County
Horn said he made the investment
because he thought the woman loved
him; she produced a husband in court
70 show that she could not have mar
ried Horn for legal reasons.
1t came down 10 the arguments to-
day and former Judge Low of San
Francisco and Attorney r. l. Mann,
representing the prosecution and the
defense respectively, had a verbal set
10 when the latter suggested that an
attempt had been made 10 extort money
from the woman with the understand
ing that the case would be dropped.
Let the counsel make those state
ments under OATH" interrupted Judge
Low. whose face was white with anger,
but Mann did not take the stand.
Attorney John W. Stetson, chief coun-
sci for the defense, made a motion this
afternoon that the case be dismissed
on the ground of insufficiency of evil
dence and Judge Samuels granted the
motion: In doing so he said:
Tile court has serious doubts as to
whether Horn parted with his money
because OF the false and fraudulent
statements of the defendant that she
was capable Of contracting legal mar
riage or whether 1t was a desire to in
vest his $500 in gold mine or alleged
gold mine, hoping TO reap financial
benefit. But rom all the testimony
that has been presented Il is my judg-
ment that there is not sufficient TO hold

say this: That the Grand Jury is now
in session and if the complaining wit
ness still feels aggrieYed he will find
