Is Believed That He Now Is in
British. Columbia With Wife No. 2.
San Francisco, Aug. 5. Three
years ago two Ingenuous young men,
bound for the classic halls of the
State University, tramped from Los
Angeles to San Francisco, making
their living along the way by preach-
the gospel and titling keys. The
name of the young tramp' preacher
was Carl Sumnei Hughe-1, that of the
locksmith Lou's Everett Heers. They
carried with them a little game
cock, who bore the high sounding title
of Agamemnon Epictetus Thucydldes
and the trio won the hearts of all the
people In the towns strung along
the! reroute by virtue of their good
cheer and courage inthefacc of ad
verse circumstances. Yesteiday
Hughes was a fugitive from Justice,
hiding in British Columbia with the
young woman who believes she is I1I3
lawful "wife, Miss'Lena L. Taber, of
Oakland.' In Chicago' a vengeful
woman, Mabel Tyler Ilaghes.U calling
upon the law to place the man who
has violated It behind the bars. The
animus of her complaint Is well ex
pressed In the telegram she sends to
her atterneys:
'Chioaoo, June 4, 1808. Emmons
& Emmons, Spreckels Building, San
Francisce: Money no object. Hughes
Is a bigamist. Want him arrested.
Will write full particulars later on.
'MAnnr- TYi,r.ri IIuqhi:s."
Hughes' career In California has
been an original one, to characterie
it mildly. Beginning with his fan
j tastic lour of Mic state, and his entry
of San Fianclscj nhabb'y, footsore and
penniless, he was known as a diligent
student at the Paclllc Theological
Seminary, and engaged the Inteiest of
those he met by means of his frank
and winning manners; but he was
chronically short of funds and took
means to replenish his exchequer
which were not looked upon with
favor by the faculty or his fellow
students. Still he was generally held
to be, possessed of an estimable char
acter, and the fact that he had con
secrated himself to the ministry
screened him from harsh criticism.
He won the heart of pretty Lena
Taber, Oakland, and on Aptll 21,
1608, married her, ,wi,Mi her mother's
full consent.
Tie afterwards took charge of a
Methodist church In San Jose.
By a remarkable concldencc, at
about the same time Mrs. Hughes
of Chlcigo, opened her campaign
against him for bigamy he was bcUed
with the war fever and
resigned

Report That Has Reached Washington to That Eftect-vThc
New Ratio,
DKNVr.it, 'Aug. 5.-A special to the Times rrom Washington sajs:
Information has been iccehcd here irom London, through private
channels, to the effect that the Indian mints are to he leopcnod to free coin
age, and the assertion is made that this will occm at an unexpectedly e.uly
date. The report t,r the Indian commission Is to lia published before tho lirst
of September, and tills is expected to throw some light upon the details ol
the matter.
The announcement that the impoitantstep of leopenlng tho mints '"111
take place comes from a source which is usually icHablo.
There Is a strong clTort to haye the ratio changed from Hi to I to 2a to 1,
and It is asserted that a willingness to assent to this change litis bgen eyluced
by both the United States and France.
The establishment or .a ratio of 22 to 1 would hao the ellect of
Increasing the present price of sllvec, but it would, jii the other
hand nrobably prevent forever the icstoration of the ratio of 1(1 to 1.
There Is some disposition to doubt
this doubt appears to arise largely Irom

Spanish garrison prisoners. Wc ar
rived off the Island Sunday, June 7.

Wednesday morning the Charleston
steamed up the bay, but founa no gun-
f boat. She fired Ul shots at the fort, 12
of them taking effect. What was our
Surprise to see natlcs '.come down to
the fort and made Inquiry as to what
was up.
They thought we were firing a
salute. The7 did not knowthat
Dewey Interrupted communication at.
Manila. Wc raised Old Glory neyer
