NO SIGN OF CLEAR SKIES
Repetition of Gales of Friday Night
Is Forecasted

There are no signs Of clearing of the
storm in this city. Late Friday night
the wind reached its highest velocity
during the season, blowing over San
Francisco and vicinity at the rate of
forty-two miles an hour. Toward morn
ing it gradually decreased. The indi-
cations point to renewal of the hur-
ricane in a day or two.
The storm. which covers the whole
country west of the Rocky Mountains,
started several hundred miles off the
coast of British Columbia and is NOV
ing east. At o'clock yesterday morn
ing the center was reported off Van
couver Island. 1t will pass across
Northern Washington and Idaho, and
will probably not be broken up until
it reaches the Rocky Mountain
San Francisco is near the edge OF the
storm circle, said Forecaster McAdie
yesterday, although the effects of the
wind are felt as far south as the Mex
lean border. The violent gusts which
have characterized the storm here are
due to the alternating southeast and
southwest winds which are blowing
into the circle. This has caused great
disturbance along the California coast.
Outside the Golden Gate the sea has
been boiling and raging for the past
three days. The wind on Friday night
tore up the sand dunes near the Cliff

In the Game of Racing

with Duffey. About the same time
the United Railroads acquired the over
head trolley privileges. The racing
stable had dwindled sadly during Duff
feys days Of poverty, but the opening
of the winter season found Gil Sum
mers & Co. still IN the game.
For some reason the Duffey horses
were sent TO Ascot. and they are still
racing there. While President Duffey
OF the Board Of Works tolls with the
faithful beasts that pull wagons for
the Board of Public Works, his mind
fits to Los Angeles, where Gil Sum-
mers is burning up Duffey money. The
stable is small and Duffey thinks of
the old days. All he has now is Bob
Ragon. Dominus Arvi. Robert Mitchell
and Virginia Lorraine, four children
of Kismet. They are dreadfully ex-
pensive and the outlook is gloomy
Virginia Lorraine won a race last
week, but the purse wasn't as large
as a "bit" from the fight trust, and
Gil Summers is said to be in a fair way
to lose the "& Co."

Hospital st. John, OF St. Johns,
Province of Quebec
A later letter received from the same
institution reads as follows:
"Three weeks ago wrote to tell
you how satisfactory we found

for colds, coughs, catarrh and neu-
raIgia."
II have used II myself as a tonic

ed, half a teaspoonful every half hour
Mrs. Eta Booker, Dundurn, Sask.,
N W. T., Canada, writes:

I wrote to DIR. Hartman, and after TAX
ing treatment as he advised, can say
II am now cured of this most trying
afiiction. for which I am truly thank
full / think Peruna the best medicine
for catarrh. never felt better IN my
life than I do at present"
Peruna not only promptly relieves
coughs and colds in their first stages,
but is equally prompt and efficient for
catarrhal diseases in the chronic stage
OF course, it is only reasonable to
suppose that a great deal less medicine
will be necessary to cure a slight at
tack of catarrh than would be required
to relieve the ailment after it had been
allowed to become chronic.

George T. Dufey. the present head
OF the Board OF Public Works, who, ac-
cording to the records Of the Grand
Jury, picked up sll,25O in bribes while
a member OF the Board Of Supervisors,

a stable OF cheap race horses and has

burned the plumbers pockets and he
had to put them back to save himself
from moderation.

When catarrh once fastens itself
upon the system 1T becomes an obsti-
nate disease to eradicate.
a systemic remedy-one that reaches
every internal organ of the body-is
an absolute necessity.
Peruna is just such a remedy. 1t
searches out the cause of the disease,
healing and strengthening the mucous
membranes, and thus giving Nature an
opportunity to perform her part of the
restorative process.
One of the many hospitals which
have found Peruna OF value In treating
old and obstinate cases of catarrh Is
the Hospital st. John, who write, as
follows:
I'VE are happy to tell you that your
Peruna has given US satisfaction.

home on Friday morning ME-. Det-
wiler remained here all day, but late
that evening left for the coast"
When asked If the coast meant San
francisco, Mrs. Detwiler replied:
Yes. 1 am not very familiar with his
business affairs" she continued, but
know that he has gone west to
straighten them OUT
The disappearance of A. X. Detwiler
from Toledo is significant In view OF
the developments yesterday and his
previous knowledge, as admitted by his
brother, that his indictment was prac-
tically assured. Either he has already
been taken into custody by Special
Agent Burns son and is on his way TO
this city under guard or he has sue
ceeded in slipping through the hands
of the prosecutors agents and is in
hiding.
Detwiler's arrival in Toledo was
kept secret, even among his own closest
friends, although he spent the entire
day there Friday. Young Burns was
there, too. and had expressed the hope
of locating the telephone magnate.
Whether Burns succeeded in causing
his arrest Friday night and getting
him quietly out of the city and started
on his way West is a matter of consid-
cradle doubt If Detwiler's source of
information enabled him to learn that
the indictments had been voted against
him Wednesday and were being held
up by the Grand Jury he could easily
have given the slip to Burns and left
Toledo before the fact of his arrival
was known

NOT SURPRISED AT CHARGE
The news that Detwiler had been in
dicted by the San Francisco Grand Jury
for connection with transactions relat-
ing to the granting of a franchise to
the Home Telephone Company in that
George Detwiler or to the indicted man,
by the former. George Detwiler did
not seem to be a bit surprised that his
brother had been indicted.
"A. K. had an intimation of that" he
said. He was in the city yesterday
afternoon and left late in the afternoon
for the West. He said that If there
was anything in it he ought to be on
the ground"
The West is such a general term
that 1T may be some days before A. n.
Detwiler shows up in San Francisco. It
would seem that he is not under arrest
at this time. however, as his brother
asserts that, so far as he knows. no
United States Marshal came to Toledo
to take Detwiler into custody and to
accompany him back to San Francisco.
MY brother arrived i'm New York
four days ago" asserted George Det-
wiler today, and of course he had
some intimation of what was about to
occur. He had read the newspaper ac-
counts. of course. He left San Fran
cisco about three months ago with his
wife and had been in Europe before
returning here. Coming to Toledo, he
left Mrs. Detwlier here. He is in ex-
cellent health"
A X Detwiler disposed of most of
his interests here, having invested
much of his capital in Western enter
prises, chief of which was the tele-
phone business.
sHADowED BY BURNS SON
It was also learned on reliable au-
thority this afternoon that a repre-
sentative of District Attorney Heney
of San Francisco had been in Toledo for
the last two days looking up evidence
in the case of Detwiler. The man who
was here is a son of Special Agent
Burns of San Francisco. Just what he
accomplished is not known. bat he
left last night without giving his des-
tination. To friends he stated that he
wanted, above all things, TO locate the
presen hiding place" of Detwiler, and
next TO that to secure what local evf-
dence he could for use in the trial of
the case. On various features of the
san Francisco case George Detwiler
did not care to make any statement
though it was plain that he believed
in the innocence of his brother and of
his ability TO clear himself when given
an opportunity by trial

CATARRH of the respiratory organs
- is a common ailment in Canada
for at least two-thirds of the year.
This condition is no doubt caused by
the long, severe winters experienced in
this part of the continent.
Therefore, when Peruna was discov-
cred by Canadian people to be a relia-
bic remedy for these catarrhal diseases
it at once became a popular medicine,
not only among individuals and fami-
lies, but in the great hospitals, where
lief in hundreds of cases.
These institutions do not hesitate to
give their Endorsement Of the remedy
which has been so helpful in the treat

Among these institutions is that of
