Mrs. F. M. Pickering Testifies in the Justices’ Court Regarding a Dress. Society had its ipning in the Justices’ Court yesterday when Mrs. F. M. Picker- ing appeared before Justice Carroll to de- fend herself in a suit brought by J.J. Rauer a= assignee of Mme. Luenberger, dressmaker. Mrs. Pickering wanted to go to the horse show, and desiring to do jus- tice to the occasion ordered a gown of the modiste. The latter claimed on the stand that the dress when tried on fitted perfectly, and was corroborated by her assistants. Sne said, however, that Mrs. Pickering was faultfinding to an unreasonable ex- tent and that there was no reason why the dress snould not have been accepted. Mrs. Pickering, on the other hand, tes- tified that the dress was illfiting when she first tried it on, and_that Mme. Luen- berger’s tinkering with it did not improve ma-ters.. She rcfused to accept or'pay the $100 demandea by the dressmaker. The last time she tried it on and tola the aress- maker it would not do, when the latter had flown at her ‘and torn the dress vio- lently from her shoulders. strict Attorney Barnes, who repre- sented the defendant, grew eloquent over the evils apd discomforts of a misfit dress, and demanded judgmernt and justice for his fair cli=nt. jndgine Justice Carroll ‘will give Purifies and Beautifies the Skin by restoring to heaithy activity the CLOGGED, IRRITATED, IN- FLAMED, SLUGGISH, or OVERWORKED PORES. the combined seles of all oths id.

A “Hobo” Testifies That Miller Invited Him to Come to the House. GAVE WRITTEN DIRECTIONS. Locksmiths Say the Picklocks and Skeleton Keys Were Practi- cally Useless. The inquest upon the death of the al- leged burglar killed at the house of j. L. Franklin on the morning of the 17th inst. was begun yesterday betore Coroner Haw- several inchee, but considerably broader | across the shoulders, wearing a long, blue | overcoat, his right arm in the sling, ad- | | vanced quietly, took hold of Heyneman’s | right hand, and by a single dexterous | {movemem twirled the stronger man about | | and secured his head under his arm. | Captain Lees had been watching and di- | Tecting the progress of the inquiry up to | this point with the confident air of a con- | noisseur in crime and an expert in human | | nature, awaiting an expected confession ! | from this young man. His attitude and | expression changed. ! “How was that?” he asked. Miller did the trick again. ““And show us how you recovered your revolver and shot in that position.”” | fiiler felt his opportun: and,. with ! le attempt at gentleness, he diagged | | Heyneman to the floor; while, in mock | { fashion, he groped with his lame arm for | | his revolver. | The audience laughed with delight, | “Ob, I could do it with most any man,” i said Miller, proudly, as he released the | disconcerted private secretary. | The examination began with Miller’s | previous employments and went back to | ‘ the time of his father's death at Plymouth, | | Conn., when he (the son) was 9 years of | {age. He had had but a few years of | schooling at that time, when he was com- pelled to earn his own living; had worked | 1n New York and Chicago and Portiand, | !in various menial employments, until, a | | little more than a year ago, he entered the | service of Mr. Franklin. He repeated the | story of the night of the burglary prac- | tically us it has been told; how he was| awakened early in the evening by Mr. | Franklin, who ill, moving about | the house, advised him to postpone a journey contemplated for the next Qay, retired again, got up at shortly be- 50 tried to turn on the electr: led, went into the hailway, en- | countered the three burglars who held | him up, two of them went upstairs leav- : bim with the third, how he atiacked | him in the manner iilustrated and both | | kept firing until he became unconscious. kins, and Butler Miller, his slayer, did not pose as the hero that all accounts of the tragedy hitherto given has made him ap- pear. On the contrary, he was from the open- ing question put to him by the Coroner vlaced in the attitude of a defendant on | trial. i 1 | | startingly Captain Lees, chief of the detectives, has a theory that Miller is guilty of having en- ticed the alieged burglar into the house and killed him—enticed him there for that purpose. The theory.so far from beinga mere theory, was supported by testimony of a direct character. A man—a tramp—was produced who said that on the | night preceding by one that of the killing | he had been invited by Milier to come to the house with the promise of a reward. He absolutely identified Miller and pro- duced a paper said to have been given him by the butler, upon which directions were written how to find the house. This w ing was compared with others, which Miller acknowledged to be his own, and they bear some striking points of similar- ity. Other evidenc: strongly corrobora- tive of this theory was presented. On the other hand Miller denied all knowledge of Hays and bis note and supportes in his_aliegation of an alibi ¢ the members of Franklin’s family. Frank- lin himself deciares himself ready to stake his life and his foriune upon the boy’s in- | nocence. As for Miller he carried himself through the ordeal with a quiet confidence. wholly free from any sign of either fear or bravado—like the modest hero that he still 1s in the eyes of the Frankiin family. Miller was placed upon the stand im- mediately upon the impaneling of the jury. He sat on the opposite side of a table, at which the Coroner, Captain Lees at bns side, was seated. The young man carried his hand in 8 sling and his wounded throat was wrapped in white bandages. He is a handsome young fellow, with regular features molded on strong lines, brown eyes and brown wavy hair. His beardless face was pale when he took his seat and his attitude was one of dejection, his head drooping, and eve-, turned away from his questioner, restea upon and followed the swift fingers of the stenographer upon his left taking down question and answer. - With the first question of the ipquisitor, couched in the shurp,stern voice of th,e prac- ticed prosecutor, the blood began to rise into the pale cheek of ihe witness, and continued so to do until it turned a deep crimson as question by question followed one another, demanding the story of nis whole past life. ot that any answer to the whole list gave occasion for shame, but e seemed to | feel that Le was defendant there. Gradually, however, he aroused himself under this realization, and after a time turned to face his questioner, and allowed his eves to rest upon him in a level, steady way tliat had the effect of taking some- thing from the sharpness of the inquiry. By the time the questioning had covered the space of the young man’s past life aud the night of the burglary had been reached the magest bearing and frank answers of the young butler had won him the sympa- thy of the audience. It was evilent tuat Ii was feeling the sharp tone of the in- quiry, but he had not been betrayed into | the shightest disposition to make a sharp retort or an evasion. He toid the story of his encounter with three burglars, and of one of them being left with a revolver at Lis head to guurd him, and of how he, taking his opportunity, attacked the man and wrestled with and exchanged siots with him until he became unconscious. Then Captain Lees whispered to the Coroner, and the Coroner asked him to iliustrate upon the body of O. H. Heyne- man, Captain Lees’ private secretary, just how he made the attack. Hevneman stood up. He is a slim, but well built young fellow of six feet in height. Miller Tose up. - Miller, not so tall as the other by “I did not know that I was shot.

Miller stood up. “I do not know,” he | aid. could not see over his hat.”” | ““Oh, sit down,” said the Coroner. : Miller saia he did not hear the name tt” or any other name used between the men. He explained that he got his revolver from a needy man at.the hotel at | which he worked in ‘Chicago—paid him $3 | on it. Cantain Lees undid the package contain ing both the weapons used in the deadly duel and Miller readily picked out his | ow “Whose revoly “I don’t know.

Then they sprang their surprise. At the back of Captain Lees a young man of slim | figure, swarthy complexion and small black eves, wearing the habit of a tramp, came forward in’a shambling, stoop- shouldered way, twirling a greasy hat, and stood directly in front of Miller. “Did you ever see this man?” Miller looked at him steadily. “No, sir, 1did not.” 5 “You didn’t meet him on the corner of What has ; | | | | photographs | those. about him. | rageous. | story of going to the scene—the first dis | wound " was of | knew Miller to be afflicted with a pecu | family, adde Sacramento and Kearny streets on Tues- day night preceding the alleged burglary, and ask him to come out to the house on California street?” “No, sir, I was not out of the house that night.’” 5 “‘fs this your handwriting,” on a small, ragged piece of brown paper. ¢No, sir.” Some notebooks and an account were shown to him, which he acknowledged to be in his own writing. Then Miller was told to stand aside and ihe tramp was placed on the stand. . Shiv- ering with nervousuess, he said his name was Franklin Hayes. “I was asking alms from men on the street on Tuesday night wben this man, Milier, came along. I tackled nim. He said I was giving him dirt. T went along fvith him and asked him how. We turned up Sacramento street and he said to me, ‘gou can make a suit of clothes and $5 easy if you will come out to a certain house, on California street, near Buaker, to- morrow and carry away two bundles for me.” 1 told him I would do a great deal for $5 and a suit of clothes, l§e said I must come between 7 and 8 o'clock, come around to the back porch and wait for bim till he came out, making no noise. I said I would not make any noise as I could walk on the grass. He told me there was no grass there. 1 agreed. Then bLe stooped and picked un a small piece of a paper beg and started to write in his hand, He could not do it well and placed it against a lamp-post and wrote the directions how to get there. He then gave me 10 cents for my carfare and we parted. Well, I didn’t go. 1 taiked it over with some chums in a saloon and they advised me not to do it as it was rather mysterious and might get me into_trouble. As soon as I saw the picture in the paper the next Friday I said ‘That is the man. In answer to a jurvman Hayes said he | was telling his story of his own free will. He had talked about the affair among the hackmen and others, and it got to the ears | of the police and he was locked up. In answer to questions from Captain Lees the witness said that a number of 1d been shown to him out of which he picked two as being like the man he bad met and one of the pictures was that of Miller. The meeting with Miller was between 10 o’clock and mid- night; there was plenty of light so that he could not be mistaken 1u tne identification. He had never seen Miller sfterward until he got out of the carriage to come to this inquest. All this time Mr. Franklin, the boy’s employer, who sat near, was laboring un- der the most intense excitement. ‘“‘This makes me sick,” he would whisper to “The idea of a fellow like that swearing away the life of my boy. Why, my boy never goes outat night. He has no bad habits, does not use tobacco, has not been out as late as 11 o’clock since he has been in my empl This is out- I know it isfalse. Iwould stake my life upon it.” Officers Green and O’Connor told their covéring the men and calling for the patrol wagon, the latter finding the masks, one | beside the insensible burglar and the other | in the hall abov 0 of finding a black veil on the sidewalk outside. Dr. Washington Dodge testified to hav- ing been summoned to treat Muiller, tind- ing him unconscious or partially so, sui- fering from a wound in the neck. The nature that ordinarily would not cause a man to faint, but he nervous disorder from having treated him a year previously for an attack that ren- dered him unconscious. This would ex- plain the symptom. On the occasion referred to, the d d an interview with the poiice extend- ing through several hours, and when he | returned heme he was overcome with this | attack of—not exactly epilepsy, bu £ some- t g akin to it, produced by what in a woman might be called bysterics. It was attended by partial unconsciousness and the patient gave vent to a peculiar noise and his limbs twitched. *“Would such an animated encounter as we have witnessed here produce this effect?”” asked Captain Lees. The doctor hardly thought so. Coroner Hawkins asked if epileptics were not usually subject to delusions. The witness sail they sometimes were, but he would not say it was usually the case. Dr. Max Solomon, the family physician, testified to attending the patient (Miller) after the shcoting. He found him un- cious at his first call and he wasstill so hen he called again at noon. He suc- eded in rousing him, however, for an in- t and the boy's first words were ere are two upstairs.”” He said that the nail on his right thumb was torn com- pletely out and gave the patient great pain. Dr. Davis testified to treating the patient in the first instauce. Jennie Shafer,a one-time nurse in the something to the sensation w sprung b of Hayes. She had been engaged by the faraily a few days before the affair.. She ous tempera- ersation with Miller a day or so before the shooting and he told her about the previous visit of burglars to the place. She had compli- mented him on his nerve und he had said something about receiving only $25 a month. Then she went on to say that Miller was out on the night of Tuesday, the night Hayes alleges he met him. She says sbe was writing a letter that night and remained up late herself. She retired to her own room at 5 minutes to 11 and he had not come in yet. He was not out the next nizht, Wednesday, but on ) | Thursday nizht, the night of the shooting, be did not come in until a quarter to 11, She said she had tried to put her hand through the opening in the screen and | the broken glass of the back kitchen-door through which the ourglars are supposed to have effected an entrance, but she could | only get three fingers into the crevice. ena Mohr, another nurse in the family, 1 | | Hayes, Who Claimed to Have Received an Offer of $5 and a.Suit of Clothes From Miller ctor said, Miller had | he appearance and tescimony | said she thrust her full hand through the opening. but could not use her fingers. John Todt, a locksmith, was shown the bunch of keys and bent wire found in the hall with the masks, and said they were evidently not made by a professional lock- smith. He would not eal she wires. lock: picks, as they could scarcely be used for that purpose. Joseph Oswald said that there were no skeleton-keys in the assortment and they could not be usea excepton a common lock. They were evidently the work of an amateur. A piece of wire formerly a part of a col- lender used in the family was shown. 1t compared closely with the wire of which the lockpicks were made. Dr. Coben was_ called. He had been called to attend Miiler in 1894, when he was supposed to be suifering from an epileptic fit. He was taken to the Re- ceiving Hospital, but revived immediately when placed on the operating table. “What do you think of that attack?” asked Coroner Hawkins. “Well, I think it was not well played.” “You think he was feigning then?” “Yes, or it might have been hystero- epilepsy.” Lees then took the stand and €xamination of the scene of the crime and what conclusions it bad led him to. kitchen door, and declared that it would be impossible to reach the key or bolt, some inches from it, through tiie opening. “That door was unlocked from the inside, ing to the hallway from the kitchen had been cut in a manner that would not aid in opening it, besides the brass bolt and plate bore no scratch or other sign of hav- ing been forced. The electric lizht wires were cut in the kitchen and tue gas tarned of at the meter under the front step, and the telephone wires cut upstairs—tlLe first cut leaving whoever did it in darkness. They must have been familiar with tne lo- | cation of the wire: “Itis a mystery to me,’” he said, *“as I have made this investigation with thor- oughness and impartiality.”” A piece of candle, he said, had been found in the hallway. “I have not told Mr. Franklin of the convictions that this investigation has forced on me, because [ thought it would do no good, and should all come out under oath. Those lockpicks I do not consider of any use for the purpose. 1 know something about such tools, but I thought best to call in regular locksmiths to testify.” The inquest here adjourned until this morning at 9:30 o'clock. In the afternoon the jury, led by Captain Lees and attendea by a Deputy Coroner, visited the house of Mr. Franklin and looked over the ground | as described by Captain Lees. | _ While they were in the house young Miller remained in a room upstairs. Speaking of the testimony of the nurse woman as to his being out on the Tuesday evening referred to by Hayes, Miller said : 1 was not out that night, 1 supplied the woman with ink to write her letter. 1 think I told her | was going out but did not do so. 1 was inbed at half-past 9 o'clock. On Thursday night I went to the | barber’s on Devisadero and California | streets, but found it closed. I go:a $5 | piece changed for one of the family on Fillmore street and returned home.

In the evening at 7 o'clock I am engaged in waiting at the table at dinner and after- war! get my own dinner.” Miller by request wrote the words that are on the paper alleged to nave been given by him to Hayes, by which a comparison of his handwriting might be made. Captain Lees said last night that he would to-day produce at the inquest a number of tools and articles found in the Franklin residence. Among them are a vise and pair of pincers which he thinks could have heen used in making the pick- locks found asa part of the supposed bur- glars’ lools. It is said that Miller may be arrested to- day. Mr. Franklin will secure the services of an attorney for him. A Young Society Man Has Suc- cumbed to Pneumonia in the Mines, Co. Died Very Suddenly at Cripple Creek. James N. Gregory, who for six years was at the head of the salesmen’s depart- ment at the H. S. Crocker Co., died on J. N. Gregory. Wednesday afternoon in Cripple Creek, Colo. The news of his death was thor- oughly unexpected and has come in the nature of a thunderbolt to his wife, family and friends. At the beginning of the year the de- ceased secured a leave of absence to spend a few months in the East. and after visit- ing Boston, Philadelphia, New York and Denver he decided to look in at Cripple Creek, where the mining excitement is at its height. He had been there but a week, and his wife, who is stopping in this City with her brother-in-law, Robert Wieland, received most glowing letters from him as to the country he was in and as to lus health. His letters, however. droppea off three days ago, and the first intimation received that anything was wrong came to Robert Wieland late Wednesday night from a Mr. Lapman, who is unknown to him, but who wired: J. N. Gregory is dead. What disposition sh. be made of his remains? Subsequent telegrams brought the news that Gregory had been sick but two days. He had been laid low by pneumonia, the sickness which is said to be kiiling the strangers in Cripple Creek at the rate of one an Lour. Robert Wieland, the eldest son of the late brewer, John Wieland, 1s a relative by marriage of the deceased. Wieland mar- ried Miss Lucille Buckley of Oakland, who died a few months ago, and Gregory mar- ried her sister. & g Gregory came to this City from New Jersey some sixteen years azo, when about 23 years of age. He became best known when, at the beginning of the decade, he entered the employ of H. 8. Crocker & Co. He wasblessed with more than wsual good looks, and was a brilliant conversa- tionalist. He made his way into the smart set, where he and his wife were great favorites. 2 Although married nearly thirteen years, they have had no children. The deceased was a member of most of the choice social clubs of this City. " Robert Wieland wired to Cripple Creek yeésterday to embaim the remains and send them on to this City. all He told of the small crevice cut in the | not the outside,” he said. “The door lead- | DEATH OF J.

Heis now understood to be on the rack in Chicago, just as his “‘boss” is in Washington. A new aspect has been put upon the case in question which, it is held by rail- way men, gives the investigation a sig- nificance not previously dreamed of. Itis this: The United States law has been grossly broken by the Southern Pacific transport- ing United States sailors over its southern route at reduced fares, and besides, the United States has been doubly hood- winked in the transaction. In violating the interstate law the Southern Pacific cut the sailors’ faresto such a figure that made it next to impossible to transport these passengers over the Central roads in com- bination with_lines that would not under- take 10 enter into such a conspiracy. In this way the Union Pacific and Cen- tral Pacific were cheated out of the total sums received from the transportation of two parties of United States sailors numer- ous enough to fill two large trains. i i Everybody knows that the Union Pacific | and Central Pacific were built with Gov- | ernment money and are virtually Govern- | ment roads. If there were any roads in | the United States entitled to a share of the profits accruing from hauling the two | trains of marines they are the ones. They | form a continuous line from San Francisco | to Omaha, and the only direct route across | the continent. In tace of all this, how | ever, the Southern Pacific took the Gov- ernment marines around two sides of a triangle in a circuitous route to get money for its own lires at the expense of the | United States roads, and in doing_so vio- | lated the 1aw and the rules of the Western | Passenger Association. “‘Here is a clear case of diverting busi- ness from the Central Pacific,” remarked a railway official. “Here you have the acme of Southern Pacific gali. A Govern- ment road, Government troops, Govern- ment money. Only the troops and the money are separated from the road. ‘‘Senator Morgan or Congressman Ma- guire ought to have this point for a ques- tion for Huntington. Suppose Morgan shounld ask: ‘““You say vou are not diverting busi- ness from the Central Pacific?’ ‘*‘No,” Huntington would reply. *‘ Then how can you account for divert- ing Government moneyr paid for trans- portation of United States marines from the Ceatral Pacitic to your own treasury ?’ *“Then there would be a grand climax. I'd lige to hear Huntington’s expiana- tion.” ! | 1 | | STRUCK BY A CAR.
