THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, 7, 1896. g e e B RE WR M Ry e WILL 60 HOME N HER COFFN Pretty Miss Mayne Wor- rall Dies Suddenly in the Palace Hotel. AUTOPSY TO BE HELD.| A Wealthy Girl Who Was Mak- ing a Tour of the World Alone. HER 1OVER WENT INSANE." Max Brandenstein Asks Friends Lonéon by Cable What to Do With the Remains. in | Miss Mayne Worrall of Chester Loage, on road, South Kensinglon, London, and, a highly connected and accom- shed girl, about years old, died sud- denly in her room at the Palace Hotel | about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon. She was traveling around the warld alone. The cause of her death appears to be heart disease, but it is quite possible that an autopsy, which will be held to-day, y reveal other causes of death. Miss Worrall arrived in this City last Thursday from Australia on the steamship Alameda. She was met at the dock by Max Brandenstein of M. J. Branden- | stein & Co., tea importers of this City. Brandenstein & Co. had received a letter from Ramsay & Co., their London corre- spondents, asking them to®meet Miss Worrall and see that she was provided with a suitable hotel and to render her any other assistance that she might need. i Mr. Brandenstein found Miss Worrall in | company with congenial friends and she expressed a preference to remain in their company and went to the Palace. Among these friends were several San Francisco residents known to him. One of these was' John Herman, a young man and member of an old San Francisco family. The young tady appeared to be in good spirits when she landed, and has been en- joying herself since her arrival in the City with the friends and acquaintances she made aboard ship. Last Friday she was out at the Cliff House with a party, and in the evening she was escorted to the Bald- win Theater by Mr. Herman. He left her at the Palace about 11 o’clock. Yesterday morning about 11 o’clock Mr. Herman called at the room of Miss Worrall, but received no response to his rap on the door. He called again about 1 o’clock. She called to him to come in. He found her in bed. She said she was feeling quite ill. He advised her to let him call a physician, and he went over to the office of Dr. L. E. Whitney, near by, and summoned him. Mr. Herman returned to the room of the | young lady. He found her lying on the floor en aishabille and semi-conscious. A | window of her room had been opened, sug- | gesting the idea that during his absence she had been seized with a fainting spell, had rushea to the window for air and had allen over on the floor. He replaced her on the bed, and by that time Dr. Whitney arrived. Tne physician was seen last night at his rooms in the Palace. He said: * I found the young lady gasping for breath. She had very little pulse, and her face and feet were blue. She went into a spasm and had several of them. “They appeared to be epileptic. Finally she had no pulse at all, and I gave hera hypodermic injection. Her pulse was still so low that I could not hear her heart beat. She gasped for breath. Isent for Brigham, and she died shortly after he ar- | ived. She apparently died from heart | failure.” “If she died by poison what poison do | the symptoms indicate?” the doctor was asked. | *I would say strychnine. The autopsy will determine that. I understand the Coroner will hold one.” | The remains of the young lady were | taken in charge by the Coroner. They are | at Porter Brothers’ establishment. Attorney H. Brandenstein has been ap- | ed to take charge of her effects. Her age consists of several trunks, and | the valuables found in Mer room com- prised about $250 and about $1000 worth of jewelry. Max Brandenstein cabled Ramséy & Co. vesterday afternoon the facts of her death and asked for instructions. Dr. Whitney says that Mr. Herman said | to him that Miss Worrall told him aboard ship that her lover in England had gone insane She expected to take a train for New York and Chicago to-day on her return to England. | ment has submitted the matter of a duel between Marshal Martinez Campos and General Barrero to the Supreme Court of Military and Naval Appeals. The excite- ment occasioned by the threatened duel gontinues to grow.” The affair has restored | much of Marshal Campos’ popularity. GREAT PIGEON RACE. Leydecker and Richards to Compete for the Championship of Northern California and Oregon. A number of carrier pigeons will be liberated from Ashland, Or., at 5 o’clock this morning.

Leydeck- er’s loft in Alameda—he being the owner of a number of the birds—s 318 miles. Thedistance to the loft of J. Richards in Vallejo, who owns the rest of the birds, is 293 miles. The numbers and sex of the birds owned by Leydecker are as follows: K 278, sky-blue hen; K 176, blue check v , sky-blue cock; K 169, red hen; K 482, sky-blue cock; T 161, blue check cock.

OREGON CITY, Or., June 6.—Conrad Neibert, 8 Canby saloon-keeper, was shot through the body last night by one of two men who attempted to rob him. It was about 10 o’clock and Neibert had just locked the front door preparatory to going A FIG FOR CARE-- A FIG FOR WOL" The Press Club Celebrates Its Midsummer Jinks. JUDGE HUNT WAS SIRE.

Mr. Tilton then called the Press Club’s double quartet to the platform, and they gave the keynote to the evening. Tom Williams, business manager of the Examiner, had volunteered to act as anuouncer for some of Jimmy Swinnerton’s own, while Swinner- ton declared himself as acting as volunteer illustrator to a Williams dis- course on_the ex-city editors of the Ex- aminer. Williams ran over the list. He said that good city editors were neither made nor born—they simply do not exist. A good city eaitor must know more than the Creator, and the Creator had never made such a man. He told in amusing style the peculiarities of many of the men Who have held the office for different jour- nals extending from two hours to, In one or two cases, so much as a year. ¢ As he passed from one to the other Swinnerton, with a few strokes of charcoal, | drew telling caricatures of the well-known faces, beginning with J.

WNTS CLEARY ARRESTED Favor Anxious to Have the Customs Inspector Placed Out of Harm’s Way. Caims to Have Evidence Against Other Federal Empioyes—Dis- missal of Presbury. The release of Charles Favor, the arrest of Customs Inspecior Michael T. Cleary, and the summary dismissal of Chinese In- spector Presbury, have set the tongues of the Custom-house scandal-mongers wag- ging. Yesterday Favor procured a warrant for the. arrest of Cleary upon the charge of making threats to kiil. Up to a late hour last night the belligerent Inspector had managed to evade the officers of the law. Favor says that since he was released from the County Jail, Cleary has made his life miserable by continued threats to “‘put a hole in his head.” The trouble is said to be due to an abortive attempt on the part of the Inspector to have Favor swear that he knew nothing whatsoever of any “peculiar” transaction on his part. Favor refused positively to do this, bence the trouble, He asserts that at least two other in spectors are guilty of wrongdoing, and now that be isunder the guardianship of | Special Agent of the Treasury Moore will teil all that he knows.

Robbed of Twenty-Five Cents by a Bandit Who Wore Fine Clothes. STOCKTON, CAL., June 6.—O. E. Nutley, a farmer, while driving to Stockton along the old French Camp road, t!iis afternoon, was hailed by a well-dressed man. Nutley thought the stranger wanted a ride into town, and drew rein. “I want your money!’ the man said, as he stepped up and took hold of the reins. Then he drew a reyolver and pointed it at Nutley. As bLe did trbis, he dropped the reins and took hold of the farmer’s coat- collar. The highwayman was a powerful fellow, over six feet tall, and he lifted Nut- ley out of the cart by his coat-collar. Then he proceeded to search him. He went through every pocket, but as luck would have it, he found only 25centsin a vest- pocket. Nutley carried considerable money, but had” placed his purse in his outer coat-pocket, and as the pocket was ripped, the purse had slipped around into the lining of the coat. The robber ordered Nutley to drive on, which Nutley did with alacrity, and he re- ported the hold-up to Sheriff Cunningham on his arrival in town. Deputy Sheriffs Black and Wall, Sheriff Cunningham and | Constable Carroll at once started for the scene of the hold-np, but they failed to tind any trace of the highwayman. He is described as over 6 feet tall and of pleasant address, His shoes had been recently blackened and he was well dressed. It is | believed he came directly to town after the hold-up, and a careful search is being made for him, 7 =% 7 < » Ny (0 DN DOCTOR SW WHY 1s DOCTOR SWEANY acknowledged as San Fran= cisco’s LEADING AND MOST SUCCESSFUL SPECIALIST ?

SACRAMENTO, CaL., June 6.—Thomas Morten Lindley, one of the oldest and best-known merchants on the coast, died at his residence in this city this afternoon. Mr. Lindley crossed the plains in 1849, and went at once 10 the mines on the North Fork of the American River. After working there for several months | he returned to Sacramento and began the | construction of a log house on L street, but as he could find only three trees long enough for timbers, he gave up that project. Later he constructed a frame bnilding and opened a merchandise store 1n part- nership with L. A. Booth. This was one of the first business establishments in Sac- ramento. | The firm continued in business until the | flood of 1852 swept all it had away. Mr. | Lindley then removed to Murderers’ Bar, and conducted a store there. He later returned to Sacramento and again engaged in business. The flood of 1861 numbered him among 1ts victims, but, recovering from his losses, he started in the wholesale grocery business, and his establishment eventually became one of the leading ones of the coast. Mr. Lindley was a native of Indiana and wasborn on August 19, 1819. a NEW TO-DAY THE OWL DRucfco., (UT-RATE THE OWL’S BIRTHDAY, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10TH.
