Criminal Proceedings Against Her Cap- tain Are Probable. Wilmington, De1., April 15.—The steam- er Laurada has been seized again by United States Marshal Lannan on a charge of carrying an armed expedition to Cuba. District Attorney Vandegrift received the information from Washing- ton, and he at once prepared a bill of‘ complaint, that was placed in the hands of United States Commissioner S. Rod- mond Smith, and he gave a writ of libel to Marshal Lannan. The steamer was already in possession of the marshal, who had libeled her to recover a fine of $500 for an alleged violation of the in-- spection laws. , The bill against the Laurada alleges that on Feb. 26 last, at Baltimdre, she was fitted out by Samuel Hughes, the master, with the intent that the steam- er was to be employed in the service of the Cubans. After leaving Baltimore the steamer, near the mouth of Dela- ware bay, was fitted out with lifeboats and .surfboats to be employed by the rebels, and then the Laurada is alleged to have steamed to a point off Barnegat, N. J., where she took on men, ammuni- tion, electrical apparatus and other mu- nitions of war, which Were landed on the coast of Pinar del Rio. United States Commissioner Smith is- sued publication of the_libel, but has not yet decided on a day for its return, which will probably be about three weeks hence. Two additional libels for small amounts have been filed against the steamer by the Charles Warner company for towing. So far no criminal proceedings have been taken against Captain Hughes, although it is expected that there will be. The Laurada is still at the works of the Harlan & Hollings- worth company awaiting repairs. Confession Clears “'hiteman. New York, April 15.—A statement signed by Joseph Adams, who was re- cently sentenced to three years’ impris- onment at Sing Sing, has been made public. In it Adams swears that it was he ‘who attempted to swindle the Co- lumbia bank by means of a worthless check on Feb. 20, and not Alonzo J. Whiteman, who was tried and acquitted of the charge. The men resemble one another very closely. Evidence Against the Junta. Jacksonville, Fla., April 15.—Notwith- standing the denial of the Cuban junta in New York, it is said here that Colonel Juan Sandoval, the Spanish agent, is in possession of enough incriminating documentary evidence to ask for legal action against the junta by the United States government. The letters were found on the person of General Ruis Rivera at the time he was captured. A \Vealthy Young Man’s Suicide.

He Was Found Hiding Some Distance From the Scene of the Crime—Marks of an, Ax Found on Mrs. Reyn- olds’ Body—No lVIotive Apparent. 'Woonsocket, R. 1., April 15.—A quad— ruple murder was committed at Oak- land, R. 1., about 10 miles from this place, early today, at what is known as the old Elisha Matthewson place. The murderer, in order to cover up his 'crime, fired the house, but before it was totally destroyed the body of Mrs. Edward Reynolds was taken out. Her head was smashed. Later‘ the charred body of her 16- year—old daughter was taken out of the ruins, and soon the body of Edward Reynolds, the husband, was found. Martin Mowry, a boarder, who-was at first thought to have been burned also. was found hiding in a barn near Harrisville and was at once placed un- der arrest on suspicion of having been connected in the affair, It was several hours before those who were at the scene could begin their search. At daylight a body was seen lying near the center of the ruins, and as soon as possible this was removed. Although it was burned so badly the appearance indicated that it was that of Servilla Reynolds, the 20—year-old daughter of the family. A short time later Reynolds’ body was also recovered, the identification being a general one, as the body had been frightfully burned. The bodies were taken to a nearby building, where they Will be left until Medical Examiner Wilcox performs an autopsy. . When the neighbors, who had been aroused by the fire, went to the Rey— nolds house they found that the flames were confined to one part of the house. “ Evidences of Murder. The house was securely fastened, the doors being bolted and locked and every window closed tightly, so that they were compelled to burst open the door to gain admission. From what they saw, however, it is evident that the house had been satu~ rated with kerosene so thoroughly that the flames spread with marvelous ra- pidity. The rescuers attempted to reach that part of the house where the Reynolds family slept, but were driven back so quickly that they had only time to take Mrs. Reynolds’ body out of doors before Lhis section of the house was in a blaze. From the appearance of her body a brutal murder had been committed. The head had been crushed in, evi- dently with an ax, and the upper part of the body was horribly mutilated. Those who brought out the body say the bed which she occupied was covered with blood. An attempt was made to locate Rey- nolds’ body, but it did not appear to be in the room. It is believed that he had been alarm- ed by a noise and had left the room and had met his death in another part of the house. The position of the body in the ruins bears out this theory. Martin Mowry, the man who worked for Reynolds, slept in another part of the house, and the villagers hurried to his room to alarm him. The room was empty, and from the hasty examination that could be made it was evident that the bed had not been disturbed. - Commission Company Sued.

That is the Way Norwalk Speaks, and That is the Way Norwalk Peop'e Act. At first there was doubt. That was but natural, for people had been disap- pointed many times. Bnt first a man in N orwalk spoke, then a woman in South Norwalk, and soon from all over both places arose the chorus of praises for C. C. C., California Catarrh Cure. And now people buy and use it in perfect con- fidence that it will do .what it claims; that it will cure every form, every trace of catarrh, Read what Mrs. I. F. Wil- liamson, 24 Spring street, South Nor- walk, says: “I got a bottle of California Catarrh Cure at Plaisted’s drug store, for my daughter Kitty, who has been troubled quite badly with catarrh, and she finds that it has helped her very much. My sister has also used the medi- cine with most satisfactory results and joins me in saying that it is a fine medi- cme.” Catarrh in its fully developed forms is a hideous disease, involving decay, filth and actual rottenness, with most offensive odors in the very seat of the organs of taste and smell; firmly fixed there, it be- gins to attack the membrane lining of the r passages leading to the lungs ‘or the stomach; resulting either in consumption, or what is often 'called dyspepsia. It is really catarrh of the stomach, intestines, liver, kidneys and various internal pas- sages. California Catarrh Cure will cure all forms of catarrh, and will check even incipient consumption.
