O!ficer Esken Reported to Dr. Fitzgibbors That the Woman Had Taken Poison. DENIED BY THE SURGEON. An Autopsy Will Be Held To-Day to Determine the Actual Cause of Death. Mrs. Mary Anderson of 419 Harriet street died at the City Prison last night under most peculiar circumstances. If the story told about the police headquar- ters is true, there is one more entry to be made in the column of shortcomings al- ready credited to the management of the Receiving Hospital. About 2:40 o’clock yesterday afternoon it was reported at the southern siation that Mrs. Anderson was lying helplessly drunk at her house on Harriet street. Officer Esken was quickly dispatched to the place, and after some difficulty gained access to the house. He seurched all the front rooms, but without success. Finally, as a last resort, Esken directed his steps to the kitchen, and on a sofa found Mrs. Anderson apparentiy in a drunken stupor. Within easy reach was a gallon can half filled with stale beer, though the woman bad already succumbed either to its po- tent influence or some powerful drug. It is tbis that has brought the attendants at the Receiving Hospital under the suspi- cion of having neglected their full duty. Esken endeavored to arouse the woman, but failed utierly. As there was a big gash over the right eye the officer thought it likely that she was unconscious as the result of a blow or fall, and accordingly summoned the ambulance. Pending the arrival of this slow-moving vehicle, Esken was informed by parties occupying the upper flat that the woman had taken poison. She had been drinking heavily of Jate and on several occasions threatened to take her life. At the Receiving Hospital the wound on the woman’s head was dressed by Dr. Frank Fitzgibbons, the surgeon in charge, who immediately ordered Mrs. Anderson taken to the City Prison. He said it was simply a case of *plain drunk.” % At 6:15 o'clock Mrs. Anderson died in the woman’s ward at the City Prison. She had been placed on a bench, and was apparently incapable of movement. Sud- denly she turned over, as if in pain, and then rolled to the floor. Her cellmate let forth a piercing shriek, which brought Sergeant Shields quickly to the scene, though the woman had breathed her last just before he reached her side. It is generally believed that the woman died of poison. Officer Esken swears he told Dr. Fitzgibbons that Mrs. Anderson had taken poison, but the surgeon insisted on its being merely & case of ‘-plain drunk.” On the other nhand, Dr. Fitzgib- bons affirms that Esken said nothing about poison, but, on the contrary, said she had taken too much beer. The body of Mrs. Anderson was removed to the Morgue, where an autopsy will be beld to-day. If it is shown that she had swallowed poison Dr. Fitzgibbons will probably fina himself in a very embarrass- ing position. Detectives Ryan and O’Dea were de- tailed on the case last nigit, and they found certain facts that throw some light upon the matter. Mrs. Delia Cardnell, who lives in the rear of 419 Harriet street, told them that she saw Mrs, Anderson in the vard and she asked her for a glass of water. She got a glass, filled it with water and handed it to Mrs. Anderson’s hus- band. She refused to take the water from him, and he got mad and threw the gla: in ber face, cutting it. Mrs. O'Malley, who lived in the same house as the Andersons, found an empty box marked “Rough on Rats” in the yard. She gave it to John August Mack, another resident in ihe house, and he handed it to Ryan and O’Dea. Mack saw Mrs. Auderson as she went into the yard, and expressed the opinion that Mrs. An- derson’s husband bad nothing to do with ber poisoning herself, if she did so. Emma and Lizzie Johnson told the de- tectives that Mrs. Anderson sald to them that she was going to take poison and do away with herself. Rvan and O'Dea deemed it advisable to place the husband, Andrew Anderson, under arrest, and they locked him up in the “‘tanks” at the City Prison pending developments. He was considerably unaer the influence of liquor, and threatened to poison himself if he got the chance. The couple have two daughters, who some time ago, while they lived in Ala- meda, were placed in the Maria Kip Orphanage. 6’:1: is now about 16 years of age and the other 12. Colville on Theosophy. W. J. Colville delivered his second lecture for the Golden Gate Lodge of Theosophy last nignt in Native Sons’ building, his subject be- ing *The Ten Great Religions.” He said in NKEW TO-DAY. S "~ Fred Brown’s Jamaica S Ginger stands to-day as < standard preparation of 2 = pure Jamaica Ginger—a rem- edial agent of the highest re-> iability. So great has been its success that hundreds of imitations are made to-day = and foisted upon the public as “Brown’s Ginger.”” These should be strenuonsly avoid- ed. A simple means of get- = ting the genuine is to ask for FRED Brown’s Jamaica Ginger, and see that the red label is on the wrap- per with this trade- substance that the ten great religions are one, the same truth underiying them ali. The dif- ferences lie mostly with the teachers and with the degrees of civilization of the races. This study of comparative religion is oneof the chie{ob]wu of the Theosophical Society. The World’s” Congress of Religions was one of its greatest achievements. e ——— IN AIR AND WATER. Ballooning at the Chutes—A Relay Race by Local Bicyclists Thousands within the inclosure of the Haight-street grounds witnessed Antonio Pirri perform hisamphibious act yesierday afternoon, and they aiso saw C. W. Vosmer go up in a balloon, Pirri rode down the chutes on his bicycle, but in leaving it to enter the lake he was not so fortunate as on previous occasions, His head struck the bottom, ana when he emerged it be- came necessary for a surgeon to stitch up a good-sized scalp wound. Vosmer's balloon did not inflate as well as it should have, aad as a result he did not rise high and was unable to cut away, s0 he did not make the parachute leap. He landed with the parachute and balioon on Buena Vista Park. The California Cycling Club and the San Francisco Road Club bave arranged to run a thirty-five mile race at their grounds, commencing next Monday and continuing one week. It will be a *‘ped- alistic” race, that is the riders will mount stationary bicyles and work the pedals for six evenings until each shall record five miles of foot work. The race will ciose on Saturday afternoon when prizes will be awarded to the winners. One will be a $50 cup, another a $35 suit of clothes, still another a $25 suit and the last a $15 over- coat. AN AFTERNOCN WEDDING, Miss Sadie Hecht and William L. Gerstle to Be Mar- ried To-Day. A Romance, the Opening Chapter of Which Was Begun Under Itaiian Skies. This afternoon at balf past 2 o’clock at the residence of Colonel and Mrs. M. H. Hecht on Washington street will be cele- brated the wedding of their daughter Miss Sadie Hecht aud William L. Gerstle. The high social standing of the young couple, tegether with the important com- mercial positions of their respective fam- ilies, makes their wedding of more than passing interest. Mr. Gerstle is the son of Lewis Gerstle and nephew of Louis Sloss of the Alaska Commercial Company. The Gerstle and Hecht families have been pre- viously connected by marriage, Marcus Gerstle, the elder brother of the groom, and Hilda Hecht, the older sister of the bride, having been joined in the holy bonds of matrimony about three years ago. The wedding of Miss Sadie Hecht and Mr. Gerstle is a love match pure and simple. The young couple two seasons 8RO spent a year together in European travel and that friendship, the seeds of which were sown under the sunny skies of Italy, ripened into mutual affection on the return to their native city. Acting according to the often expressed wish and earnest desire of the fair young bride, the wedding ‘is to be an extremely simple one. When Dr. Voorsanger pro- nounces the young couple man and wife only the immediate relatives of the high contracting parties will be present. There is to be no maid of honor, no bridesmaids and no best man. After the ceremony there is to be a re- ception for the members of both the fami- Jies and a limited number of most inti- mate friends. The bride, who is a most beautiful girl, is to wear a gown remarkable alike for its rich simplicity and beauty. Over a white satin foundation fall turee skirts of white filuffy tulle. The bottoms of these skirts are not hemmed, but are left cut like the skirts of the fairy of the baliet. The cor- sage is covered with innumerabla tiny puffs of tulle. The square-cut neck 1s filled in with a yoke of exquisite point DEMOCRATS ARE STILL AT WAR Lanigan Men Say They Were Eaten by Rainey, the Tiger. And Enemies Will Report Lani- gan for Violating Civil Service Laws. REPUBLICANS ARE AT WORK. Veterans and the Lesgue of Clubs Are Preparing for a Grand Demonstration. Although yesterday was the Sabbath, the war among the angry factions of local Democrats went on with unabated rancor, tne anger of the Lanigan contingent rag- ing into a flame whenever the hungry spoils-seekers that infest it beheld the vision of treasures slipping from their grasp. “It was undersiood at the outset,’’ said a badly disgruntled Democrat of the Lani- gan crowd last night, “that we were to have a show at the Supervisors, but we have been swallowed by Rainey. The only man Lanigan is sure of is Haskins, They call Britt a Lanigan man, but he is not. He is as much Rainey’s tool as any of the others, and tke truth is the festive Sam owns nearly all of them. “The Fire Department is, of course, be- hind the Rainey ticket, engaged in boost- ing it along with all the energy possible. You must remember that 465 out.of 512 of the Fire Department are Democrats, and they are so organized that they do the bidding of Rainey without question.” But some of the Rainey men think Lani- gan has too much, not on the Board of Supervisors, but elsewhere. It is said that he has too heavya representation el:e- where, and there are threats that steps will be taken to report him to the Civil Service Commission because of his offen- sive politics. In this connection it has been held over Lanigan for some time that he is likely to get into serious trouble by reason of- his meddlesome and active participation in politics. The civil service rules pro- hibit such conduct as hascharacterized the conduct of Lanigan for some time past. He is known as a bad type of polit- ical boss, and a great many people in his own parly are growing weary of his con- duct. It isnotamong the impossibilities that he will be compelled, with some oth- ers in high authority in his department of the Government, to give up local politics as he now foliows it, or give up his Fed- |, eral position. These threats and many charges.zand counter-charges among the factions have made the local Democratic situation anything but harmonious. The silver Democrats are still bitter against Phelan and his gold friends, whom they say they cannot consistently support. The wars among the Bourbons are so numerous that each day’s sun sees the factions more hopelessly divided in their march to defeat. Kepublicans are working with vim for their ticket. Cheering reports come from all sources. The Union Veterans’ Patri- otic League keld an enthusiastic meeting at the Auditorium on Saturday night. The louow'u:f officers were elected : J.

In one of the busiest part of Chinatown and in broad daylighta prominent Chi- " li sl il i, Chin Lun Chee; 2 Dupont-Street Druggist, Was Ruthlessly Shot in the Back Yesterday by a Chinese Bravo and Fatally Wounded. The Shooting Occurred at 722 Jackson Street. ) GABLECHR ACCDENT Carelessness of the Railroad Brings Serious Injury to Three Persons. Mrs. Chisholm, Eighty Years Old, Said to Have Receiv-d Injuries Which May End Fatally. An’ accident which appears to be wholly due to carelessness, occurred on the Larkin-street cable line yesterday morning, resulting in the serious injury of three persons, one of whom may die. The railroad people are extremely reticent about the affair, firsc denying that any- thing unusual had happened on their line. They finally admitied, however, that John McCarthy, A. Ahern and a Mrs. Chrisholm, living on Folsom street, had been injured and that the first two- had been fully compensated for the unex- pected shake-up. Shortly after 8 o’clock yesterday morn- ing the cable on the Larkin-street line slipped the pulley near the Howard-street power-house. There isan automatic ar- rangement by which the superintendent of the power-hougse ig notified by the clang- ing of a bell of such a mishap. As business was pretty brisk at that hour it was thought advisable notto shut down, but to have the cars run from Market street b%und Howard of their own motion. his saving of time and money worked very well until dummy 7 with car 21 at- ;nched came along. The gripman failed o0 Jet go the rope as ordered, with the re- sult that when the dummy neared the Howard-street line the grip ran acainst the iron bar or bumper which is used to protect the cross- cable line, bringing the cdr to a dead halt. The passengers were hurled violentiy forward, Mrs. Chisholm, who is 80 years old, being the greatest sufferer. Several ribs were broken and she was otherwise seriously injured. The railroad imme- ately effected a compromise with Mec- ‘arthy and Ahern, paying the firs: $125 and the latter $30. It 1ssaid that an effort Wi Iso made to compromise with Mrs, hisholm's relatives, but they would ive nothing to do with such a proposi- Thrown From a Car. L] While Mrs, Mary Donnelly, who resides at 1146 Howard street, was alighting from a cable car at the corner of Howard and Ninth streets last evening the cars started and she was thrown violently to the ground. She was badly shaken up and bruised, but fortunately sustained no seri- ous injuries. —————— The National Club.

Chin Lun Chee, adruegist at 710 Dupont street, was going among his customers with his collection book in hand and was just entering a store at 722 Jackson sireet about 11:30 o'clock yesterday morn- ing when a Chinese fired a shot into his back. The wounded man threw up his hands and fell forward on his face into the doorway. There was another Chinese standing be- side the one who fired the shot and the two ran into the doorway of No. 720. Po- liceman Freel, one of the Chinatown squad, was standing on the corner of Kearny street, about 100 feet away from the sceme of the shooting. He saw the Chinese fire the shot and immediately started on a run for him. He followed the two fleeing ChiiYese up the stairway of No. 720 to the second story. They ran into a kitchen in the rear and Freel saw the smaller of the two, who fired the shot, ass Lie revolver to the other, who threw itinto an open fireplace. Just then Freel grabbed the shooter, and he gave a yell as if he had been in the grasp of a tiger. The other attempted to get away, but Freel pulled out uis revolver and they quietly submitted while the officer put the handcuffs on them. Freel took them to the California-street station, where the smaller, who fired the shot, eave the name oi Ah Wah and the other Ah Chan. They were then taken to the City Prison, but were not charged, pending the result of Chin Luu Chee's injuries. The wounded Chinese was driven to the Recéiving Hospital in the patroi-wa.on, Dr. Bunnpell found that the bullet had entered his back, fracturing the spina: column and paralyzing the Iower limbs. The builet traveled downward and proba- bly lodged in the abdominal cavity. {Io effort was made to probe for the bul- let, owing_to the weak condition of the patient. His wite, a pretty little Chinese woman with a baby in her arms, was soon at the hospital with a large number of Chinese. The wife was allowed to sit be- side her husband’s cot, but the crowd of Chinese was kept outside, with the excep- tion of a Chinese doctor. Policeman Freel, who arrested the two Chinese, arrived at the hospital with them shortly after 1 o’clock. Sergeant Colby, who was on duty at police headquarters, came 10 the hospital about the same time to take Chin Lun Chee's ante-moriem statement. Jee Chang Tone, interpreter for the Chinese Six Companies, was present and took the statement, translating it into English. Following is the statement: 1believe I am going to die from the effects of the gunshot wound 1 have reccived to-day at 722 Jackson street, in this City and County. My name is Chin Lun Chee. I1am 51 yearsof age and was born in China. Iam notstrong enough to tell all the circumstancesof the 00ting. Chin &in Leon told the two men that are arresied to kill me because Chin Kin Leon owed me money. Iasked him to pay me, and for this reason he told them to kill me. When the man that is arrested shot at me I turned my head and saw and recognized him. Cnin Kin Leon was standing by the two men. 1recognized the smaller mun of the twn that shot me, I heard the tall mun tell the short man that I was the man to shoot and point his finger to me. Chir.

Before finishing his stalement Ah Wah and Ah Chan were brought before him. On being asked who fired the shot at him he pointed to Ah Wah, who said, “Not me,” and was proceeding to talk volubly when he was suddenly stopped by the Bergeant. He then pointed to Ah Chan and said he told Ah Wah to shoot him. Ah Chan said, ‘“Me not there,”” and the wounded man’s wife, with flashing eyes, pointed her finger at him and poured out a torrent of invectives till stopped by Dr. Bunnell. After the prisoners had retired Dr. Bun- nell wanted to give the patient a hypo- dermic injection to make him sleep, but he begged " first to speak privately to his wife. They all retired to a distance as he pulled her heaa gently down toward him and fondly stroked her hair. Then for some minutes he whispered in her ear, and then allowed the doctor to use tne in- jection. Besides the reason given in the ante- mortem statement for the shooting it was ascertained that Chin Lun Chee, who has conducted a drugstore at 710 Dupont street for the past thirty years, had loaned Chin Kin Leon $300 to enable him to pur- chase a wife from among the celestial beauties in Chinatown. This amount Chin Lun Chee had been anxious to get back from Chin Kin Leon, but the latter was not willing to settle, which had made them bad friends. In the meantime Chin Lun Chee had notified Chin Kin Leon that unless the money was paid by to-day the woman would be taken from him and disposed of ior a sufficient consideration to satisfy the claim of Chin Lun Chee. This threat seemingly worried him to such an extent that the services of Ah Wah and Ah Chan, iwo notorious highbinders, were called into requisition to settle the in debtednese by shooting Chin Lun Chee. Chee was taken from the Receiving Hospital last night to his home at 710 Dupont street. CAPITAL PUNISHMENT. Rev. Dr. Birch of the People’s Church ~peaks Against It at the Temple, “The Peopl-’s Church,” established by Rev. W. L. Birch quite recently, held its second weekly meeting last evening at Metropolitan Temple. There was a preliminary musical pro- gramme. James Hamilton Howe, the or- ganist, accompanied the Misses Pear! and Maud Noble in their cornet and trombone duet, and Mrs. Anita F. Grand and Miss Ella Ellis in their respective solos. During his sermon Rev. Dr. Birch had occasion to mention Professer Huxley, whom he knew 1n Egypt. He said: In the memorable words he uttered in his last daysin the theater at Oxford, England, he showed that what we need is not the sur- vival of those who happen to be fittest, but of those who are morally the best. We should repudiate the gladiatorial theory of existence, and in place of ruthless self-as-ertion culti- vate self-restraint, which inspires the individ. ual not merely to respect, but also help his fellows. Our influence shou.d be directed not so much to the’survival of the nttest as to the fitting of as many as possible to survive. On this godly principle, therefore, 1strongly protest against the modern notion taat in cer- tain cases of insanity, suffering or crime, it is righteous to cut off human hife by ar:ificial means. Human life shouid be sacred. Private assassination or national warisof the devil, an inspiration of brute-nature. Does safety or sugcess obtained by pistol, cannon or dynam- ite prove that in the sight of God you have more right to live than the man you have slain? In order to live, are we justified in be- coming thieves? And in order to live are we justified in slaying a man? The largest bronze statue in existence is in St. Petersburg.
