LONDON , Octl 13. In anticipation of hearIng -
Ing a most Interesting and extraordinary
cane , the Marlhorough street police court was
packed with spectators today long before
It wan time to call Mr. and Mrs. Walter M.
Castle of San Francisco , remanded on Tues
day last. , charficd with stealing a quantity
of furs , etc. , from various dealers In this
city , to the bar.
James It. Roosevelt , secretary of the
United States embassy , and Mr. II. Hodson ,
one of the under secretaries of the embassy ,
were accommodated with ocats on n specially
reserved bench.
At 11 o'clock Mr. Castle walked calmly
Into the dock and a moment afterwards his
wife was led In by two policemen. She was
stylishly dressed In dark brown with n blue
cloth cape , the collar of which was turned up
to an to partially hide her face. Mrs.
Castle sobbed violently while In the dock
and held her handkerchief to her face.
When the first witness wao called , Mrs.
Castle became hysterical , and her condition
wan such that the police fetched a bench
upon which both nhe and her husband were
allowed to sit. Mr. Castle put his arm
r.round his wife , doing his utmost to pacify
her.
her.Mr. . Avcry prosecuted for the treasury.
After detailing the circumstances concern
ing the conduct of the prisoners , he nald
thnt ho wns Informed by the officials of the
United StntcH embassy that Mr. and Mrs.
Castle bore a high reputation in San Fran
cisco. It was not , he said , a'case of
wealthy persons buying goods that tliey did
not Intend to pay for , but a regular case
of fIiollttlnK. ] ) Counsel added that he would
not read the whole list of articles
which It was claimed were stolen , but ht
begged to call the attention ( if the magis
trate to the following : Eighteen tortoise
shell combs , seven hand mirrors , two sable
boas , two mufts , two neckties , seven gold
watches , nlno clocks , seventeen valuable
fans , sixteen brooches , BCVCII tortoise shell
eyeglasses , two plated toast racks , marked
"Hotel Cecil. " and a largo number of
smaller articles of less value , such as trink
et ? , etc.
During the reading of this list Mrs. Castle
appeared lo bo upon the point of losing
consciousness. She frequently ejaculated ,
"Oh dear , oh dear , " and finally closed her
eyes and sank moaning feebly upon her
husband's shoulder.
Part of the property , the prosecutor fur
ther stated , was found among the husband's
clothing. Ho mentioned this , he ( .aid , li
Anticipation of the plea that the female
prisoner alone was guilty ; but from the clr
cmuntanccs brought out In evidence am
the fact that the prisoners occupied one
room at the hotel , It appeared to him that
the man must have known what was going
on.
on.Mr.
Mr. Harris of Jeffs & Harris , furriers of
Urgent street , testlllcd that Mr. and Mrs
Castle , accompanied by their son , aged 10
years , visited his store upon three occa
sions. Mrs. Castle , ho added , did most of
the talking , and the party separated while
In the store , Mr. and Mrs. Castle going to
different counters , the lioy running out.
After the departure of the Castles some sable
boas and chinchilla skins were missed
T. Cook , manufacturing furrier of Port
land htrcct , testified In substance : "Tho
female prisoner came to my shop October
fi. She sajd she was Railing on the follow
ing 'lucuday anil asked mo If I could make
n Mblo capo In tlmo for her to take It
with her. I called at the Hotel Cecil later
ns she said she had some sables for this
ri po which I was to match.Vhllo at
tlio Hole ! Cecil shu left the room and I ox-
amlncd the packages of furs slid had. I saw
Eonn : well known marks and agreed to make
the cupo. Her husband came In at ubou
that time and gave his assent to the bar
gain. "
Detective Cunningham described the ar
rest of Mr. Castle , who. he said , exclaimed
"Oood Godl There la some mistake. I wll
pay anything rather than have this charge
presso'l. I know nothing about It. "
Manager Field of Charles D. Itoblg , fur
riers of Argyll street , was next examined ,
Ho told practically the fcamc story as Mr
Harris except that Mr. Field swore undci
cross-examination that the furs were li
such a position on the counters that Mrs
Castle could not have taken them.
Inimcttor Arrow of the metropolitan police
described In detail- the finding of thn effects
alleged to have been stolen In six trunks am' '
In the wardrobe of the Castles' room nt
, the Hotel Cecil. The plated toast rtcks , ho
explained , were found at'the bottom of the
trunks covered with clothing.
F. A. Margr.it of Margraf , Stmms & Co.
furriers of .Morgan street , gave testimony
similar to that of the other merchants ex
amlncd.
Prosecutor Avcry asked that the prisoners
lie remanded for a wrck. Charles Matthews
for the defense asked that the prisoners
to released on ball. In the course of his
remarks Mr. Matthews said : " \Vo cai
clearly prove that Mr. Castle Is entirely In
nocent and that ho U a man of the very
highest reputation.Vo do not contend tha'
lili wife Is Innocent. Hut at the same tln
we shall bo able to provo by the testlmon'
of physicians In court that eho Is sufTerlnt ,
from a disorder which affects the mind. "
Dr.- Scott , the physician In charge of Ilol
loway Jail , testified that Mrs. Castle was
fluttering from Intense nervousness and tha
further confinement In prison would be ex
tremely dangerous to her.
Magistrate Shell asked : "Arc not pcopK
charged with Mich crimes always nervous ? '
Mr. Scott replied : "Yes. but not to such
an extent as this prisoner. "
After cnmo formalities the magistral
granted the release of the prisoners o
10.000 (1150,000) ( ) , accepting two sureties I
5,000 and tbr prisoners' own surety o
10,000 each , The following gentlemen wcr
accepted as sureties : Mr. Seymour , man

fiicturcr of Hatton Garden , and Augustu
Cohen , n diamond merchant of Holborn.
Mrs. Castle was removed to the Jail roon
sobbing violently and u doctor wns callcc
In to attend her.
Counsel for the Castles said to n repro
tentative of the Associated press at the con
elusion of ilm hearing that Mrs. Castle wai
completely prostrated. On leaving the cour
room she drove with her husband to some
friends In order to see her sou , who Is be'

LONDON. Oct. IX Sir Michael dllcko-
leach , chancellor of the exchequer , spcak-
ng at Darlington tonight , declared that the
actual position of the powers with regard
o the eastern question was that Austria ,
lussla and Germany wcro determined , with
a view to preserving Kuropean peace , to
nalntaln the status quo In Turkey. That
uul been England's traditional policy , he
said , any departure from which would meet
active resistance by the poucrs. At the
same time absolute Inaction was more
dangerous to the peace of Kuropo than
would be united Interference by the powers
to compel Turkish reform.
Kngland's present policy , the chancellor
affirmed , wns to secure a concert of powers
to Insist upon reform. Ho Insisted most
emphatically that the government did not
leslre to act alone or to obtain any apeclal

FOHT WORTH , Tex. , Oct. 13. At the
morning session of the National Llvo Stock
exchange President Thompson delivered his
annual address , saying , In part :
'Up to a few years ago the producer of
this country was successful and prosperous :
lie entertained no fear of competition from
'orelgn lands ; he practically had the markets
of the world open to him for the disposition
of his vast surplus and at satisfactory prices.
These conditions becoming apparent to
foreign consumers , they set atout to discover
If possible some country whose products
and surplus could be used In competition
with ours. Canada opened now fields for the
production of wheat and other cereals. South
Africa and other heretofore undeveloped
countries began raising wheat and other
grains , the producers of New Zealand ,
Australia , South America and other
countries were soon Induced to venture In
the , to them , undetermined and questionable
experience of Hading a market for their
surplus beef and mutton , and to such an
extent were their enterprises carried that
the receipts of those exports at the different
markets In connection with those sent by
us , became so great as to cause the prices
for the same to decline to n pplnt where the
European producers began to appeal for
legislation to protect their home Industries
from ruin. In many sections such
prohibitive legislation was secured , and our
country , being the largest producing country ,
was the greatest sufferer In consequence.
"It occurs to me that the question as to
whether this legislation Is Just , Is not for
us to especially consider , but It behooves us
to satisfy , nay , convince our European pro
ducers and consumers , that our live stock
and meat food producta are the healthlcct
and best In the world , and that when any
distinction U made It should be In favor of
our products. The misoundnrss of our meat
and food products has been the alleged
canso for some of the Inimical legislation
enacted. We know the reason to be without
foundation In faet , and would heartily wel
come representatives of any and all foreign
countries to our ranches , our feed lots , our
stock yards and our nbbatolrs , where our
meat food products arc prepared for com-
fiumptlon , and , after being prepared and
critically Inspected , examined and found
healthy , to bo sealed and so certified by
such representatives. Wo court the most
careful scrutiny and critical scientific ex
amination of the health of our live utoc.k
and meat food products.
WHAT MAY BE DONE.
"Can we do more In this line ? This Is
a question that merits your serious con
sideration. These measures , together with
much needed legislation by our congress
looking to a reciprocal exchcnge of our
commodities , should he oneof the great
alms of this convention. Reciprocity would
open for our surplus the foreign gates of
commerce , that arc now closed to us , and
then the resultant beneficial effect would
soon be felt In every channel of commerce
throughout the length and breadth of this
great land. "
"Since Its Inception , this organization has
In all Its proceedings acted as a strictly
nonpartlsan legislative body , wielding Its
Influence without the hope of fee or reward ,
in the Interests of Its constituents , the pro
ducer and the consumer. Let us not lose
sight of this object and In our delibera
tions nt this convention bring to bear our
best efforts with this end ever In view.
I/cl all our acts be such aa art ) best cal
culated to encourage , footer and protect our
homo Industries , thereby maintaining our
supremacy ns the greateat producing nation
of the world , and at the same time let us
discharge a duty Incumbent upon us by
bending all our thoughts , acts and energies
to the opur'ng ' of the markets of the world
to our constituency.
"To these of our friends Interested In the
sheep Industry. I would with your approval
recommend , In order to successfully compete
In foreign markets with the sheep raisers
of other ccvntrlcs , that less attention bo
paid to wool raising and more to food qual-
Itlea. U Is not particularly a question of
fat and weight , hut of weight and flesh ,
which latter 1 believe can In a great meas
ure bo accomplished by breeding. We have
a good example set us. which we may well
Imitate , that of the English sheep raiser ,
who , through proper breeding and care In
feeding , produces mutton superior to ours
In selling and edible qualities. An Inves
tigation and careful study of this question
by those Immediately Interested will , 1
verily believe , yield results that will bo sur
prising and very satisfactory to the success
ful breeder , and of great benefit to our
Industry.
"In a measure these suggestions apply
with equal force to the cattle and beef
Industry. A moro thorough study to Im
prove the becf-produclug anliral , In such a
manner as to yield a less amount of fat
and n grej-tcr amount of meat , will result
In the producer obtaining an Increase In the
present marketable value of his animal
sufficient to amply repay him for the outlay
of tlmo and money necessary to bring about
such results. It Is these minor details.
In the aggregate so essential , that the
producer must look to successfully compete
with his foreign competitor. "
WORK OF THE COMMITTEE.
The executive committee , which met lasl
night , presented a lengthy report today ,
dealing , as President Thompson's address
did , largely with the question In relation
to foreign governments discriminating
against the American live stock product
and the exportation of Canadian cattle
through the United Stated ports. Quaran
tine llnca , as construed by Secretary Mor
ton , were also discussed , and as a result
a stringent appeal to congress for relief will
be proposed.
Reports of committees showed a sentiment
In various cities Against dispensing with
traveling solicitors. One committee reported
recommending the continuation of the fight
for reciprocity , which was adopted. A rec
ommendation for the restoration of the Texas
quarantine lines was adopted. Tariff on Im
ports of hides and wool was advocated.
Plttsburg was admitted to membership In
the exchange. The broken rib cattle com
mittee recommended that Inspection nnd
disposition should bo uniform and this was
also adopted.
The committee on the exportation of Cana
dian cattle recommended the stoppaga of
exportation until the question was equitably
adjusted by reciprocity.
The following olllcers were elected for the
ensuing term : President , W. H , Thompson ;
secretary , C. W. Ilakcr ; treasurer. Doud ;

NEW YORK , Oct. 13. The great storm
of 1SUG has not been relegated to the an
nals of the past and the story has not been
half told. No one has so fur been able to
safely estimate the damage wrought by the
wind and waves , nor to ay how farreachlng
was the fury of the gale. Hut ns far as
the eye can see from any point along the
shores of Long Island , along the New Jer
sey coast , In over the lowlands , and In
some Instances over the highlands , wher
ever ono may turn there are evidences that
a hurricane has been passing through this
section of the country. It wus the tall of a
storm that came from the Indies , broad and
destructive , lifted the seas to n giant height
and forced In the wntcro with a sweep that
carried them high over the land to begin
the work the wind and rain would flnljlt.
For two days and a night the gale blew with
over-Increasing fury and today there was a
steady downpour of rain to complete the
miserable devastation already well done.
Thousands have spent the day at the beaches
looking at the devastation.
At Brighton llraeh and at Manhattan , at
Edgpmcr , at Far Rockaway. und at a dozen
other points along the sea line , the Incoming
water swept under the very foundations of
the buildings. One hotel did go down. U
waa the Ilrt'nswlck at Isle City , the finest
structure of Its kind In that section. The
reports that have already come In are to
the effect that In some sections whole dis
tricts en the coast were clean swept of the
frame buildings.
FLOODS IN JERSEY CITY.
Jersey City was In come places Inundated.
Roats were a valuable acquisition today.
The railroads In that section of New Jersey
were cuffcrcrs to the extent of suspending
business for a period and many towns In
that state \\rro cut off. Householders at
A.shury Park and Long Uranch gathered
to watch the fury of the peas , wonder
stricken and amazed at the greatness of the
waters. Hut Coney Island was the greatest
sufferer. One may not stroll through thu
well remembered walks fronting on the
beach , but he may climb wearily over the
masses of ruins that mark the old paths
or stand afar and view the wrecked pavil
ions nnd water chutes and Ice slides.
Scldl'u hall at Brighton Is totally de
stroyed. The ruins of two walls arc all that
mark tbo huge structure which crashed In
under the terrlilc force of water hurled
cguluat It. U Is believed that several hun
dred thousand dollars would not cover the
value of the places thus destroyed. Al
though the tide was yesterday higher thun
anybody remembered It to be , eaily this
morning It had again reached a maximum
still higher than at the previous flood. It
only needed this to complete the devastation
along the beaches. The seas simply swept
over thn adjoining districts hundreds of feet
beyond what long ago had been flxc.l us the
line of safety. As a result dwellings were
flooded and today spine at them aro.notyet

"NINE SEAMEN" SAVED. !
'
PHILADELPHIA. Ocf. 13. The HrltUh
steamer Evelyn , Captain Horncr , from
Uiielva , Spain , anchored In the Delaware
river this evening , having an board the al
most lifeless bodies of nlno seamen , the
croxv of the Norwegian bark Lovls , who were
picked up at sea utter being adrift without
food or water for nlno days. Their con
dition , when rescued , was a most pitiable one ,
and so faint had they became that It was
necessary to tie lines to them and
haul their attcntuatcd and trem
bling forms on board. The Lovls ,
In command of Captain Anderson , left Mo
bile August 17 for Rosnrlo with a full cargo
of lumber. She experienced the September
hurricanes and was badly disabled. Her
condition became/ bad that nil hands had
to leave her In two small boats and until
the Evelyn hove In sight they had not seen
a vessel for nine days. They could not
have lasted another night , such was their
suffering. Under treatment received since
on bocrd the Evelyn the unfortunate men
are recovering , but their condition Is still
prccarloui. The Lovls was owned In Chris-
tlena 'by M. Langard & Co. and was for
merly HIP Drltlsh bark W. H. Workman.
BOSTON. Oct. 13. The owners of the Vark-
cntlno Thomas J. Stewart , bound from Wec-
kaken to this port , have given the vessel
up for lost. The Stewart left New York
Snptcmber 8 via Sandy Hook. The vessel
was loaded with over 1.100 tons of coal. The
presumption Is that she was caught In the
hurricane on September S and 9 and cap
sized. The Stewart was commanded by Cup-
tain T. C. Ulake of Brewer , and his first
mate was Joseph Connors of North Castlnc ,
Me. The cook was Charles W. Gray of Ort-
land. Me. The crew was made up of Dutch
men. Philip U. Drluton of Uangor , who was
learning navigation , was also on board ,
making the entire ship's company eleven
men. The vessel was valued at J30.000 and
owned by Isaac 1C. Stetson of Ranger , Me.
WASHINGTON , Oct. 13. The North At
lantic squadron , from last reports , weathered
the heavy gales and seas off the coast In
good style , although the ships put out just
before the storm broke. The Capo Charles
lightship was found adrift and was towed
Into port by the Columbia.

U wns rcarcely necessary to ndvlno mo

long known and appreciated that fact and
Hyniiathlzo | with you In that sentiment. I
believe In that great Aniellc.ni doetrlno
which Hew nt the foundation of the law of
celf-preservatlon. 1 bellevo It Is" the duty
of tills government to encourage Its own
people and to iinsn such InwH ns will ulvo

to Improve their condition , the highest pcnlo
of wipcs and the groatoft encouragement

I II Is free trade among ourselves. ( Ap

M people wo are constantly vying with

Biilllclcntly , not only to wupiily cnoiiffli

And why- should It not Do HO. my fellow
citizens ? We are onni nation , we linvo ono
roiiKtltutlon , one flan ; we nave u common
destiny. The olhi f nations of the world
have their separate and Independent polit
ical oignnlzntlon for the purnoHc of workIng -
Ing out for themselves the hlshost dwtlny
possible. They owe no nlloKlnncn to this
government ; they contribute nothing to
Its support , either In war or In peace ; and
If they want to como Into this country anil
compete , with our people vro Kay to them
you can do It upon condition that a tariff
shall bn put upon your products , and u
tariff will go towards mistntnliig this
government , nnd at the same tlmo will
be a ilofeii.tito our own labor nnd pro
ducers. ( Tremendous applause. )
That Is the whole doclrfno of the tariff.
If wo ever needed It wo need It now. Wo
need It for the federal treasury , for that l
In a condition of deficiency. We need It for
the people of this country , for they , Itko
the treasury , are gimurally In a condition
of deficiency. Now. whatever will put
money In the public treasury and stop
debts nnd deficiencies and bonds , I take It
everybody would say would bo a wlso
nnd patriotic thing , no matter what politi
cal party they have belonged to In the
past. 1 take It that whatever policy will
encourage our own people to dig coal , to
manufacture products , lo employ labor ,
Is the policy that ought to commend It
self to every patriotic citizen , and If a
tariff will do those things the tariff surely
Is what , by our votes three weeks from
today , we ought to sustain. ( Applause. )
Pennsylvania hns always been a protec
tion state. James Hiicbiiimn. a democrat.
when ho was president of tha United
States , gave some very good inlvlco which
Is applicable to the present situation. Ho
said : "No statesman would advise that
wo should go on Inrreuslns the national
debt to meet the ordinary expenses of the
government. This would bo n ruinous
policy. In case of war our credit must bo
our chief resource , at least for thu first
year , nnd this would be ureally Inpnlred
by having contracted a largo debt In tlmo
of peace. It Is our true policy to Increase
our revenue so as to iiyml our expendi
tures. It would bo ruinous to continue to
borrow. " That Is the position of the re
publican party today.
In fact. In our country airleultiiro ; nnd
I manufacture must depend almost oxclu-
I slvcly upon the homo market. It Is folly ,
it not n crime , to attempt to change It
I In those rccpects. It would brim ; ruin nnd
bankruptcy without the portability of hav-
IHB such a result accomplished. The
greater the diversity of Industilos , In any
country , the greater the wealth producing
power of the people and the moro there
la for labor nnd capital to divide , the moro
Independent that country becomes ,
MONEY J1UST IIAVI3 VALUK.
Now , my fellow citizens , I tnko It that
on tha matter of Dm InrlfT you need no
argument ; but It Is said our trouble Is not
the tariff , but Ihn money , nnd that tha
way to have prosperity IH to pet our mints
\'j running. ( Laughter and applause. ) I do

I tlon of ( ho Idle miners of the nnthraclto

Which would you rather linvo for yoijjc
wages , the money with a purchasing power
equally good In every part of the world or
limited In Its purchasing power to a slngln
country or a slngl. ; state ? Which would
thu farmer prefer In payment of lila
products , a money recognized an good and
equal the world over , or a money whoso
value nnd purchasing power Is confined to

and for wltHi we give our labnr or product
IH more vuluabla to us If It IH good not
aomewhero only , but ovtirywhero not ono

Is a very comforting ihlnw to everybody
who linn monc-y. much or little , to feel that
