Thrall, the well-known dentist, died early yesterday morning at | his home, 619 Pine street. His death will | be a great shock to his many friends, as it | was wholly unexpected, being the result | of an accident. He slipped on the snow- | covered steps while entering his residence | just a week since and fell violently striking | his head. The fall caused concussion of brain, which resuited in paralysis and eventually death. He did not recover consciousness after the accident. | Dr. Thrall was one of the best known of | the men who came to California in 1849. | He was born in Syracuse, N. Y., in 18 Immediately upon reaching San Francisco | he establisned himself as a dentist and | continued to enjoy a large and lucrative przctice till his retirement a few years | ago. ; : He early interested himself in the | National Guard; becoming a charter mem- | First Infantry Regi- ber of Company B, me: N.

Smed- | burg. Iventually Dr. Thrall was retired | with the rank of lieutenant-colonel. | Dr. Thrall was a member of the Society of Cazlifornia Pioneers and of the California Commandery of the Knights Templar, | The latter will have charge of the funeral | and services, which will take place at the | Masonic Temple to-morrow afternoon at ) o'clock. 3 The deceased leaves a widow. He was a sympathetic and charitable man, and there will be a host of friendsto mourn bis loss. * - - Stolen Articles. The police have in their possession several articles found upon a well-known thief. Among {hem are a lady’s smail open-face silver watch, & pair of gold sleeve buttons with & smell dia- mond in the center, a large locket witha kuight's head on one side and initials ou the d several white and colored handker- th initials on them.

THE STRANGLER - STALKS AT LoRGE \Berthe Paradis’ Murderer | Yet Undiscovered by ; the Police. | L She Was Found Throttled in Her Vile Den on St. Mary's Street. RAGS STUFFED IN HER THROAT | Many People Arrested on Suspicion, but the Mystery Seems Greater Than Ever. say--I think Within thirty days the deadly fever of murder has run riot in the tenderloin. May McDermott was strangled first by some unknown in her den at 137 Morton street. Then May Conboy was murdered in her resort just across the way. Finaliy, vesterday morning Berthe Paradis was also assassinated in her abode at 27 St. Mary reet by some miscreant who is as | much unknown as Le is at large. The main facts of the killing were given in yesterday morning’s CALL. The woman, who in the prosecution of her infamous trade had to be conspicuous in her neigh- borhood, was seen with innumerable men and women of her class until 1:30 o’clock in the morning, when she and some friends were served with drinks in the dingy rooms she occupied. Later, prob- ably an hour afterward, her ““friend,” who bears the relation of husband to her in eir circle, discovered her dead body 2 across the bed. e woman’s mouth was stuffed with a bandana handkerchief and a towel, and later this morning a long carpenter's pen- cil, flat on one side and rounded on the other, was found under the bureau in the | room. Its condition indicated that it had been in use during the stufting process. Aside from this pencil there is abso- lutely nothing en which the shghtest clew might be worked by the detectives, who are “stumped’’ in the case just as they have been in that of poor May McDermott. In fact they are of the belief that the two women may have been killed by the same person. The details of these mur- ders are much alike. Both women were very frail, physically as well as morally. They had both been drinking and both having been seen to enter their lodgings to receive visitors atabout the same hour, were found in identical positions on their beds, the murderers having disappeared. The question ari now, not only with the detectives, but with the women of the victim’s sphere, whether the ‘“‘Denver Strangler” has not reached this City. The nemesis they are af i known, who, in Denver, | WAS THIRD IN A SERIES| frank that he had never worked since he [ met “Berthe.” Later, at the Morgue, where he viewed the corpse, he wept like a child, his heart seeming to rise into his overlape ping throat. Sobbing in a most pitiful manner, he exclaimed: ‘‘Berthe! Berthe! pourquoi m'as tu uitte?’ Meaning in English, “Bertha! ertha! why did you leave me?” The man was thoroughly in earnest and was heartbroken. He had lost his best friend and his grief was uncontrollable. Around him were a few men of his class, all bigand sturdy enough to drive dm{s or do longshore work, but who, like Chabert, rely for a hivelihood on the out- cast women of the town. They all sym- pathized with the friend who had met with such a great misfortune, and endeavored to console him with the infor- i mation that she could only have lived an- other month according to the autopsy’s | | revelations. The autopsy showed that the woman’s left lung was completely gone and there was little left of the other. Consumption had completely eaten her and the slight- est pressure on her windpipe could bave caused death. 5 This man Cesar Chabert was taken into | custody by Captain Lees’ men shortly after the body was found, but he was re- leased during theafternoon, the fact that the woman alive was worth more to him than the woman dead being prima facie evidence that he did not kill her. August Miller, the barkeeper in the Astor saloon at the corner of St. Mary and Pine streets, was one of the last men who saw the Paradis woman alive. He spoke to her at 1:30 o’clock in the morning when she had him send some drinks into her den for herself and two visitors—L. J. | Marks of 1120 Twenty-fourth street and | Georgze Malgren of 109 Minna street. These two men were strangers to each other, having met in the Astor saloon, | where both were drinking and shaking | dice prior to visiting the Paradis woman’s abode and following it up by visitstoa number of other dens. The drinks they took in den were served to them by Oscar Seidenhoff, a waiter, who runs | errands between the Astor saloon and the houses of ill repute in that district. The two visitors were arrested, but were released almost immediately after mak- ing their statements. Their movements i during the entire night until after the body was found were detailed, investi | gated and found true, forming an alibi sufficient to cause their release. Late last night Captain Lees was again handling Cesar Chabert, the dead woman’s alleged husband. He wanted him to explain his life with her more in aetail. The fellow went over the ground of their meeting in Lyons, France, and their coming to this country. He had never had an angry word with her. The bandanna found stuffed down her throat was one he had puréhased her as a token of affection because she used snuff, and | the stains were not so apparent on ared | handkerchief as on & white one. Chabert stated that he felt quite ill,’and | for the past three years he has remained | in repose in the Toom he and the dead | woman jointly occupied at 528 Pine street. He was there all of Monday until about 3 o'clock, when he went out to purchase some chops and vegetables. “I always did the cooking for us both and our friends,’” he said, **his eyes bright- ening. what’s good.” The woman came home for her evening 1 and remained with Chabert until | 7:15 o’clock, when she retuned to her | place of business. Chabert fe.t weary and | Iay on the lounge smoking and dozing until 10 o’clock at night, when he thought a stroll would do him good. He walked m “I'm a very good cook; I know | WILL BRING CHEAP COAL H. W. McNeill Has New Mines and May Ship to This City. WILL CAUSE A CUT IN PRICES.

All his crimes were comniitted mnch in the same manner as were these, and the murderer | has never been captured. A feature in the present case crops forth from the lips of one of the women living | opposite 27 St. Mary’s street. She said: “The police drove us out of Morton street and we went to Dupont. ‘Blanche,’ ; as we called Bertha, went to live at 403 | Dupont_street, and she was driven out of | there. Here we are crowded in this back alley, right under the sbadow of the | cathedral. Look wup there!” she ex- claimed, pointing to the towering sieeple. “Do reaa that sign?” The sign beneath the clock was easily read—*'Son, observe the time and flee from S t you put, ‘Girls, fly from evil,” and We won’t want the police to drive us out; we'll just get of our own uccord. This choking business is get- ting too promiscuous.” As a matter of fact the women of the town, in the districts where cwell the lower class, have been in fearful dread for the past few weeks that the mysterious as- sassin might come their way, and while the murderer’s hand has claimed two vic- | tims the result has been to drive many of the outclassed ones into private life. Bertha Paradis, the murdered woman, was born 1 Alsace, thirty-two years ago, | whence, as a younz woman, she went to Lyons. It was there that she met Cesar Chabert, the first man who yesterday found her dead. With him she consorted and led the life in France she continued to lead 1n this City. He,a big burly individal, weighing over 200 pounds, permitted the frail little woman of half that weight to be his means of livelihood.

Mrs. Marceau is still guarding the most rigorous seclusion 1u her rooms at the Palace Hotel, where, under lock and key, she is preparing a cross-complaint. The lady positively declines for the present to speak for publication; but her mother, who is staying with her, is somewhat more communicative. “The manner in which Mrs. Marceau has been treated,” she remarked last night, “‘is heartless and brutal to the last degree. It is very hard for me to see how this thing is preying upon her mind, realizing |. as I do that I am powerless to help her. “At the same time a day is coming, and very shortly, When the truth will appear, and the falsehoods which have caused my futed.

I Lad a notion to try ship- ping the coal here. I think I canopen eyes before I get through, for I will sell a great deal cheaper than coal is being sold for now.” Mr. McNeill is a man with whom de- veloping coal mines and building rail- roads has been a life business. His East- ern home is at Oakland, Iowa. He discovered, developed, and, with his brothers, now owns the exte: ve coal mines there. He also owns others near by in Nebraska County, lowa. He also bought some time since the extensive coal mines at Banff, British Columbia. “This property consists of about 10,000 acres of coal lands at the Canadian Pacific crossing of the Rocky Mountains,” said Mr. McNeill. ‘“We have been operating them five years. They are 500 miles from tidewater. The coal is true anthracite and because of this is admitted free of duty in the United States. “We had quitea fightand had to prove it was_anthracite before the Government woula accept it, so there is now no ques- tion aboutit. We are shipping now about 100,000 tons a year. Our market is from Winnipeg to Vancouver. . We have a crosscut tunnel in now showing fully 100 feet of anthracite. “This mine will be a great property eventually, but that most concerns one’s children. Of course, 100,000 tons a year is no coal, so far as shipments are concerned. Seattle and some other points, but only a littie, in oraer to test it.” Mr. McNeill is developing other mines in different sections. ~He is largely interested in the Victoria Consol- idated Gold Mining Company, a hydraulic property at Cariboo, " > He is also interested in the Kootenai mines, and 1n a cinnabar prop- erty in the Holmalco River country, over 400 miles north of Vancouver. Mr. McNeill will be here several days, and while here will look up the facilities for landing his coal here. The vroperty from which he is thinking of shipping to San Francisco is on.the upper coast and the last acquired by him. He was one of the builders of the Iowa Central Railroad.
