'Well Known as the Active Woman Who Built Her Own | Home Unaided. i Dameging Testimony in the Hands of | the Police, Who Are at Work | on the Plot. OAKLAND OFFICE SAX FRANCsco CALL,] 908 Broadway, April %. The police have just unearthed a por- tion of a plot which threatened the life of a very interesting iady of this town. W days ago a Chinaman called at the ouse, and gave the lady a letter to read. It contained a promise to the Chinaman Al to kill the woman who opened the aoor.to him, and on_his return h» would be at once given $5000. This information was conveyed in the letter, and the plot would probably have been carried out but for the unexpected arrival of a third party at the house. Mrs. Clune had only read the letter about half way throuch when the China- mwan, hearing some one approach the front gate, tore it from her hands and ran off. Bhe had just resd sufficient to learn of her danger, and as soon asshe could | she went and told her story to the Chief of Police, Detective Nick Williams was detailed on the case, and he soon discovered the iden- tity of the Chinaman. He is a laundry- man living near Mrs. Clune, and from him the incriminating letter was recov- ered. It has since been kept by the po- lice, and tne whole affair has been very closely gusrded, while several officers and detectives are quietly working to find the writer of the letter. Its exact contents | have not been mude public, and it is | stated that there is more in it than the facts relating to the assassination of Mrs. | Clune. xperts are of the opinion that the | writing is tuat of a woman of but moder- ate education, and in this connection sev- eral names have been mentioned, but in too indefinite a way to permitof their use. Mrs. Clune’s husband is a traveling salesman, but so far he has been unable to | assi-t bis wife in unraveling the mystery. In the meantime the Chinaman is kept nnder surveillance, and by this means it is hoped a clew to the originator of the | plot may be obrained. _ M:s. Clune says she is quite at a loss to account for the plot against her life, She | declares she has no reason to suspect sny one and does not know of any enemy who would atiempt any ~uch thing, It has | caused her very great aiarm and she is After Her Husband’s Death She Raised Her Family by Sheer Hard Work.

Mrs. J. N. Clune, residing at 814 Sixth street, is one of the best known women among the progressive element of her sex in this city. Some timeago she came into prominence by building her own house in which she now lives, without the aid of architect or carpenters. Itisa pretty lit- tle place, and bas been visited by hun- | dreds anxious to see the house that a | woman built. For a long time Mrs. Clune has been ting Mrs. Prescott in her work as secretary of the Society for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Children, and in this capacity it is probable that she has an- tagonized some party who now desires to wreak vengeance on her. Therehave been several cases in which children are co cerned and which have been very bitterly contested, especially in West Oskiand, in regard to one or two Portuguese famille: and these facts tend to support the theory that Mrs. Clune is in danger on account of ber official work. Some time last week she answered a knock at the door and was surprised o see a Chinaman hand her a ietter. He told ber that it had been given to him by some one with instructions to take it to the house whose address it i bore, 314 Sixth street.”” He was instructed TWENTY-FIVE YEARS IN OAKLAND.

The men are well driiled and the Colonel says that they are a credit to the place in | which they are located and to the Na- | tional Guard. “Major Diss,” said Colonel Currler, “speaking | of the first brigade, said that it is at this time | in much better conditfon than it has been | since the reorganization.” 1 From remarks dropped last Thursday at the informal reception given to Colonel Smith of the First Regiment, Second Brigade, it is | likely that Colonel H. P. Bush (retired) will accept the position of Judge Advocate on the division staff which was made vacant by the | promotion of Colonel Smith and in aceepting it he will have to accept the reduction in rank from colonel to lieutenant-colopel. Now it remains for time to determiue if the feeling that existed when Colonel Bush was in com- mand of the old First Regiment of Infautry, will develop and cause several members of the Major-General's staff to drop out, or whether passing days have heeled all differences. The Second Brigade. The {nformal reception to Colonel Smith last Thursday night drew to the Regimental Ar- mory a large number of the officers of the Sec- ond Brigade. The cail for assemblage at the armory was 8:30 o'clock, and at that hour | Msjor-General James and his steff were on haud with & military promptness that was & subject of comment, favorable of course. There was a_delay, however, and inquiry led to the discovery that it was ccasioned by the non-appearance of Brigadier-General Warfield and s:aff. An invitation was sent to the brig- | edier-general, delivered to him personally, | and te invitation 100 uded himsel? and staf, butup (o ten minutes after 9 o'clock neither the brigadier-general nor any memoer of his staff put iu an appearauce, and the neglect to &ppear or to send a le:ter of regret at inability 0 uttend was construed by some as & slight to either the new colonel or 1o the sender of the invitation. Possibiy tue brigadier-general, who received the invitation two days before the event, may have consiceied the time 100 snort in which to uotify the ten members of | Lis staff to accompany nim. In an emergency | call the brigadier-general would consider two hours about the right time in which 1o turn out the entire guard. His absence from the ceremonies was & subject of comment by | aimost every cfficer present, and it is possible | that the brigadier-general will have to ex- plain why he was not present and why he did | not send an expianatory letter. The swearing in of the new colonel of the | First Infantry nas hed the effect of dispelling aslight war clond that hung over the regi- ment for some time past, and the manuer in which the pew commander was received last Thursday night by the officers of the brigade is an indication that all differences have been herled and that there will in the future be | uni.y of purpose and of action.
