San Francisco, April 16.—The report that an arm and other remains of a third woman were found in the Emanuel Baptist church is iu correct, though search is now be ing made for the body of Mrs. For eythe, wife of u pressman with the Schmidt Label company, on the supposi tion that she was murdered by the same hand that slew the two girls. The prin cipal reason for this theory is that, sho was a member of the Emanuel church and frequently attended there. She was known to have been in the company of a man who atte ided the church with her, and from this and a few other circum stances, it was thought she had clop ;J. It is now thought that Duraut, the young medical student, now under ar rest, was the man and that he killed her also. Suspected of Other Murders. There are reasons for thinking that Durant also murdered Eugene Ware, a young drug clerk, who was murdered a few months ago. Those who saw the scientific butchery displa ed in both cases, coupled as it was with horrible savagery, immediately connected the cases. Ware and Durant were close ac quaintances, and Durant frequently visited him at the pharmacy. He was seen with Ware on the night of the mur der. As a motive it is said that Durant was jealous of Ware on account of his attentions to a g.rl. Ware was stubbed eighteen times with a double edged dirk, and only two of the wounds looked as though they hkd been delivered at ran dom. Others were ab.iut the heart and abdomen. Furthermore, Ware was mur dered by a left-handed man. Duruut uses both hands with equal facility. OIL STILL GOES UPWARD, Believed That the Standard Will Again Hai.se Its Offer. Pittsburg, April 16.—Petroleum had another big advance yesterday and cer tificate oil on the exchange closed at $2.35 bid, au advance of thirty-six cents per barrel since Saturday.

Many believe that the Stand ard will pay twenty five cents more within the next day. On the local ex change oil opened at $2.05 bid, or an ad vance of six cents from Saturday's closing price. The first sale was at 2.15 aud about 15,000 barrels changed hauls. In a short time the market advanced to $2 .25 with an occasional sale now and then. From $2.25 there was a reaction to $2.13 and then an advance to $2,244- During this wide fluctuation in price but few transactions were made, the market being bid up and offered down. Near the closing hour the market got very strong and on the local exchange sales were made at $2.32.

Officials Putting ThemselT i Out of Their Way To Make It Inconveni ent for Americans The Virginius Case Constantly Thrown Into Their Teeth us an Incident of Cowardice. Tampa, Fla., April 15.—A letter re ceived from Santiago de Cuba says that Spanish feeling against the "Yankee" residents of Cuba is running high since the Allianca was fired upon off Cape Maysi. In Santiago and nearby vil lages and towns where the newly ar rived government troops have been quar tered army sub lieutenants and lieuten ants and even members of the so-called home guards, seem to muke it their business to cause resident or visiting Americans as much iuconvenience as possible. Indignities to Americana One is compelled to show his passport, in some cases half a dozen times a day, and is asked all kinds of impudent ques tions. If you are not sufficiently fluent in the Sj anish language to explain every thing to the satisfaction of these officials they draw their swords and march you off to jail as a suspect. Stars and Strlpea Forbid. An American merchant doing busi ness in one of these suburban villages, n station on the railway leading into the interior, lately put a flag pole on his building, intending to raise the stars and stri, es should the occasiou require, but was warned by a Spanish army officer not to do so, and accused of sympathy with the revolution. While in conver sation, the Virginius case is almost every day thrown into the teeth of Americans as an incident of the Yankee govern ment's cowardice, and as proof that Spain will never submit to Secretary Uresham's demand in the Allianca case.
