He understood that the walls bad been braced up & short time before the biscuit corporation leased the premises. L. H. Cook, the cashier of the corpora- tion, was seen last evening at900 O Far- rell street. He said in repiy to questions 1hat he was at the office of the company in the building on Folsom street from 9 o'clock until 11:30 yesterday. He went irom the office 10 the barbershop and heard the alarm While in the chair. He said there was no smoke or sign of fife on the premices when he leit there at 11:30. He aid not o upstairs, but remained in the office while he was in the building. John Irwin_of 743 Shotwell street, the bookkeeper of the Standard Biscuit Com- pany, who assisted in saving the books, gave an interesting account of his observa- ions. He said: “When Mr Cook, the cashuer, left the piace at 11:30 o'clock we bad sgreed to meet and resume cur work Tuesiay evening. As I satin the office working I noticed & strong draft of wind which blew my papers irom the desk. I stooped down 10 pick up the sheets ana fancied tnat 1 saw smoke, but concluded that dust bad biown in from the street. Presenily I neard cries of fire on tue street and then suw the smoke in the building. I went to the factory door and saw the smoke and fire coming down from the second floor, Irushed at once to the tele- phone and asked the girl at Central to in a fire iurn alarm as our house was on fire. Before | got the message to Central I heard the alarm. I proceeded at once with the assistance of Mr. Campbell, one of our employes, 1o save the books. We took all the books to Campbell's house in that neig'borhood. I noticed two boys, Charles Aiken and Dick Brown—boys whom I knew very well—rush into ‘the store and upstairs, By the haste in which they came down and ran out I knew it was hot up there, ‘When I went out on the street after say- ing the books some one remarked that I was in the building a long time after the fire was discovered.”” Charles Inker, au employe of the Stand- ard Biscuit Company, made this state- ment to PLil Jacoby: “I was standing at the corner of Fifth and Folsom streets when a tailor told me that the factory was on fire. I started atonce for the building. When I got to the second floor I saw a cloud of smoke. I went on up the stairs to the third floor, and there the smoke was thicker and denser.” John English, the night watchman, was seen at 900 O'Farreil street last night. Hesaid: “I made my last rounds of the building, visitine every floor and section of the_ premises, between 4:30 and 4:45 A.uM. Ileft the place ten minutes before 5. All the bands left the buiiding at 5:30 Saturday afternoon. I was not informed of the fire until 1 was sroused at my home, 157 Harriet street, about a quarter of 1 this afternoon.”” Julius Brownstein, secretary of the biscuit company, was seen at 900 O'Far- reil street. Responding to inquiries con- cerning the building and tbe probable origin of the mysterious fire he said: *1 think the fire siarted on the third floor. The bullding consisted of three stories and basement. No, my attention was nevér called to any weakness in the walls of the building. The insurance will not cuvt-;]r our lu!‘.\l;‘,ms.

An insurance survevor visited our premises about two weeks 2go and made a thorongh inspection of the building and | contents. The only suggestion that he | made was that the elevator should be| trapped, and we obeyed the suggestion | without deiay. “How did the fire start?" asked the re- i porter, “Yon know as much about that as I do, replied Mr. Brownstein. “In your judzment and from what yon | have seen and from what you have heard from your cmployes where do you think 1t started 2" “The fire must have started on the third | or top floor, in the export or frosting de- | partment.

They carried an insurance of $20000, which was chiefly held by the | Hamburg-Bremen, London and Lanca- | shire aad Fireman’s Fund Insurance com- | panies, The structure was erected ten years ago by Arthur Field, and was first used by tbe Arthur Field Biscuit and Cracker Com- pany. The enterprise not proving suc- | cessful was abandoned, and the American Champagne Company, managed or di- | rected by Wuliam Lenf, occupied the | premises. The next tenant was the Tenny | Packing Company, but that concern went 10 Fresno and left the house open for the | Stanaard Biscuit Company. For a time | Morosco had the building in view as a | south-oi-Market-street theater, but de- | cided after reflection to let it alone. Many striking scenes and incidents were | noted at the fire yesterday. The streams | of water concentrated by three-fold press- | ure. brought down chunks of the broken | wall, scattering the bricks wherever the stream found fair opening. It was ob-| served that the bricks seemed to luck the | adhesion of cement. | The flying sparks and burning frag. | ments started incipient blazes in curtains of dwelling-houses far removed irom the | scene of the couflagration. The utmost | vigilance was employed in looking out | against the starting of fresh fires in the | path of the wind. | The action of Chief Sullivan in jumping | | the crossbeams on the wails and ma on the fire with all tlhe force available was commended by fire-tighte-s. — WERE THE WALLS SAFE? Clalms That the Binding Ties Were Improperiy Placed. Considerable comment was made yester- day on the manner in which the binaing ties of the building were joined. The tie- rods when properly placed should ex:tend clear across the bui ding, connecting t: e two walls of the buildin When the ties sre so placed, if a fire occurs and the inte- rior collapses, the walls are drawn in. Many of the ties in the burned building merely attached the walls to wooden up- rights on the inside, not connecting with ng In a continuous tie as required by law. regard to this matter there is an ordinance of the Supervisors which reads as follows: Order No. brick 27—Section 30: buildings In all or stone beams and Jjoists shall be tied to the walls or to mselves 80 as to form a continuous iie across the building every eight feet.

Wank, the other man whose condition was considered crit- ical, may survive, There was & mass meeting of women iast evening, at which the mob’s action in hanging Mitchell was commended. Adjutant-General Axline of Columbus and Captain Anthony and Lieutenant Starsman of Springfield have arrived to investigate. They will try to discover why the keys of the jail were given to the mob, why the mili:ia was sent upstairs in the jal, and why the Springfield company was ordered home just at the time it was needed. Sheriff McLain is sta his whereabouts a secret. Ten members of the Urbana militia have been staying there, and may not be allowed to return home. As an example of the feeling against them, yesterday one of them was at the station when the train eame in from Urbana and a friend of his stepped off. He went to snaze hands with the friend, but the proffered hand was re- fused, the friend saying he would not shake hands with any of the militia who had killed an, innocent man. Deputy Sheriff Kerby said to-night that it would not be safe for Sheriff McLain nor Captain Leonard to return until after Bell’s funeral to-morrow. COLUMBUS, Osio, June 6—It will probably be necessary to escort Captain Leonard and Sheriff McLain back to Urbana with troops.

For some time | the Santa Fe people bave projected a line | from Pheeiix to Globe. The route has been surveyed and coastruction work is looked for shortly. These two new roads to Globe, one from the west and one from the east, will connect the two great trunk liaes controlled by the Sante Fe, will give two outlets to one of Arizona's richest mineral, agricultural and timber regions and will also give the Territory direct communication, both east and west, over the Santa Fe system. pind o Lid ARIZONA COPPER STRIKE, Immense Deposit Found by Prospectors in Gila County.

On Monday, whet about 100 feet in, the ledge was encountered, and since then eighteen feet of the ore has been pierced and the banging wall h not yei been reached. The ore is copper glance, red oxide and silicate of copper and an of the drillings, which is the most accuraie test that can be made, gives a return of 13.65 per cent copper.’ There is no claim in this district (the richest copper district of Arizona) which makes any such siowing for the amount of development work. st Caught Kobbing « Saloon, SAN JOSE, Car., June 6.—Charles Wil- son was caught last night in the actot stealing a sa k containiug $25 from be hind the bar in the Telescope Hotel.

Sought to Escape Arrest, but His Coup Was Planned in Vain. The Real Estate Agent Now In Jail Awalting a Hearing on a Criminal Charge. LOS ANGELES, Cin, June 6.—The body of W. M. Ware, who was reported to bave jumped off the Long Beach whari at 10 o'clock last night, aiter leaving his coat, vest and shoes on the pier, along with a letter to Lis wife, has been recov- ered; butins'ead of being in the morgue, Ware is in jeil. He had played the time- worn trick of pretending suicide to elude the offi cers who were searching for him with a warrant of arrest on the charge of forgery. He bad been in hiding in Long Beach since last Sunday, and had begun to fear his whereabouts had been discov- ered bv detectives, which seems (o have been the case. He went out on the long wharf, took off his superfluous clothing, baving in one pocket a letter to his wife, but then in- stead of jumping into the ocean, as was reported by a telephone message received at police headgquarters here, he threw into the billows a great stone and then hid be- bind the trestle. A negro who saw Ware go out and heard the splash carried the news into the town, whence it was sent hither by telephone, there being no other means of communi- cation at that hour. Thus tar Ware’s ruse worked perfectly, but he made the mistake of getting back to his room in the Long Beach Hotel and passing the night in bed. Coincidently with his suicide- play two detectives had started by bugey from this city, armed with a warrant for bis arrest, they having just rece 'ved a tip of his whereabonts. The officers lost their way and did not reach Long Beach uutil 4 o’clock in the morning, though they had been driving since 10 o’clock. By 6 o'clock they had found and arrested Ware aad started back to this city. The note Ware had written to his wife was a long screed announcing his inten- tion of taking the only course left to free bim from s troubles and begging her forgiveness. The police bLelieve that he had prear- ranged it all with her, for when the news was broken to her as gently as a police- man could she did notexnibit the usual emotions of & woman snddenly widowed. The crime charged to Ware is forgery of a deed, his alleged accomplices being A. | E. Davis, who was arresied a week ago, and a man who called himself Green, who pased as the Cincinnati ownes of a picce of property on which the trio received a loan of $100C. At the City Jail to-day Ware told Tae CALL correspondent that of the $1000 re- ceived on the deed he had got $150, Davis $250, $50 had been paid out as expenves and Green had taken the remaining $350. He claims he figured in the matfer only asan agent for Green to raise the loan and got only his usual com on, but he was to-day made to real that his e suicide trick would be a confession of guilt. The trialof the alleged forgers will be of more than ordinary interest, as it is ex- pected to confirm the truth of statements that the transierrine of property and rais- ing of loans on forged deeds of non-resi- dent owners is practiced so extensively here as to cast doubts upon the title of a great deal of Los Angeles property. P gl FOUND HANG! G 10 4 POST. Mrs. Joseph Newman Strangles Herself ith a Silk Handkerchicf. LOS ANGELES, Can., June 6.—Mrs. Joseph Neuman, 56 years old, wasat an early bour this morning found dead in the basement of the house of her son-in-law, Jacob Reich, on Sichel street.

Hundreds of Animais Killed by Partaking of a Weed on the “Poison Strip."” SPOKANE, Wasw., June 6.—Sheepmen of this State are excited over the poison- ing of numerous sheep while being driven from Southern Washington to ranges in Spokane and Stevens couaties. Extend- ing along the edge of the timber near Pine City is a strip about five miles wide, known as the “poison strip,”’ because on it grows a' plant that ia deadly to sheep. Itis generally known that such a strip ex- ists, but every sheepman knows its exact location and makes preparations for cross- ingitin going north or south with his bands. Another simiiar strip extends outsouth of Cheney and west toward Spangler. Just what the plant that kiils the sheep is is not known, but a band is never driven over it without a loss of from two to ten sheep out of every hundred. Sey- eral years ago, before the exact location of the strip wss known, a band of 1500 sheep was driven leisurely across it. Seven hun- dred died from the effects of the poison. The experience has taught thai the only way to cross in saiety is to drive the sheep on a run 3o they will not get an op- portunity to graze. Domestic Tracedy in Ol Age.

RAAY STRELT. NEW YORK GITY. WITH BIG KITES AND A MORTAR Professor Libby Hopes to Ascend a Mysteri- ous Table Land. With a Party He Will Explore the Abode of Ancient Cliff Dwellers. Much of Interest to the Students of Aboriginal Humanity May Be Discovered. NEW YORK, N. Y., June 86.—Accom- panied by a couple of friends, Proiessor William Litby Jr. of Princeton Univer- sity visited Bayonne Saturday to consult with William A. Eddy, the expert kite- flyer, concerning the use of the Eduy ta less kites in a unique exploring expedi: tion. He and a party of six expect to leave this city early in July for Aibuguerque, N. M., in the vicinity of which place rises from alkali plains to a height of more than 700 feet a tableland of sandstone. The top of this has never been explored by white men, because almost perpendicu- lar walls make its summit inaccessible. It | is believed it was once the home of a cliif- dweiling race, Professor Libby and party intend to ex- plore this tableland if possible, and they will remain in camp at its base until suc- cessful or convinced that their endeavors are useless, Libby’s first idea was to take a mortar with the expedition and by adopting the methods used by the life-saving depart- ment shoot a line entirely over the mesa at its narrowest part. This idea is con- sidered practical, as the tableland is shaped like a figure 8 and only a few rods wide at the junction of the two seciions. Libby will have a dozen of Eddy’s kites prepared. He will ship them, with mor- tar, cables and other equipments for the expedition. If a cable can be successfully bauled over the mesa’s summit the party will rig a boatswain’s chair on the cable and thus be able to ascend to the top of the tableland. They believe they will discover much of interest to students of aboriginal humanit Santa Cruz sccideat.

It nev:r does for a doctor to *'scare” a patient any more than it does for a law- yer to frighten a client into the idea that his case is already lost. It may put some money into that particular doctor’s pocket, but it never, nc, never on the face of the earth, will help the patient to get well. He should be told exactly how ill he is, and then advised as to what is the best thing for him to do in order to get well. Honesty is good policy always. Think it over.
