Mexican Accused of Throwing Pana-

Especial to The Heraid.I

SAN PEDRO, Sept. 1.-Capt. w.
ziegenmeyer of the German steamer
Erna was arrested here this morning
on a warrant issued out of the United
States district court, charging him with
smuggling. United States Marshal Leo
Youngworth took Capt. ziegenmeyer to
Los Angeles, where he appeared before
the United States commissioners.
The warrant called for the arrest of
Capt Ziegenmeyer and ]. F. Solorzano,
a Mexican, who is charged with bring
ing $40 Panama hats into the country
without paying duty on them.
The Erna, which makes regular trips
between Puget sound and Mexican and
Central American ports, called here
July northbound. The hats were
dropped from the steamers side into
sl1iff and sold in Los Angeles. The
local custom house heard of the trans
action and the officers in the north
We're notified. After the steamer had
stopped at San Francisco, Victoria and
Seattle and again started on the return
trip it was decided to make the arrest
here.
Captain Protests Innocence
Deputy Marshal Hart came here last
evening and was on hand with the war
rant when the steamer dropped anchor
in the outer harbor at o'clock this
morning.
The captain, however, was not taken
from the vessel until it reached its
dock at the Crescent wharf on the high
tide at II o'clock. Marshal Youngworth
then took personal charge of Capt.
Ziegenmeyer, who protested he had alb
solutely nothing to do with the snug
Cling.
Purser Morgan explained Solorozano
alone was responsible for bringing in
the hats and the captain had nothing
to do with it. From Morgan also came
the information the Mexican had left
the vessel at Seattle and gone back to
Panama via New Orleans.
The steamer brought in seventeen
passengers from the north and will
take out ten passengers from here and
fifty tons of apricots consigned to
Havre, France, via Salina Cruz.
Capt. Ziegenmeyer was arraigned be-
fore United States Marshal Leo Young
worth yesterday and was released under
bonds of $5OOO

Proper food 10 the foundation Of

That Stranger.

Considerable excitement was caused
Sunday night at Robinson's restaurant
by the erratic manner OF a we'll dressed
lady. After eating her supper she
called for a newspaper reporter stating
she had some important information to
give Our Mac, who is always the right
mar in the right place, was present
and stepped forward to attend the
wishes of the lady. Slowly and with
careful choice of her language she
dictated a story of her fluctuations.
Among other experiences she stated
that she had been an inmate of an
insane institution. After reading her
dictated statement to the public She
signed her name. She took a team
for Lebanon at seven o'clock. The
unfortunate lady, who appeared to be
about 40 years is we'll known in Leban-
on and has been insane at intervals
for some time. The Smith county
officers detained her waiting for news
from Kansas City as to whether she
had given the asylum folks the slip or
had been discharged.
