TOOK SEVERAL STRONG POISONS. The Body Lying at 3160 Twenty-Fourth Street for Two Weeks, SCANDAL OF OTHER DAYS REVIVED. Mysterious Disappearance of an 01d Barber's Estate of Seventy Thousand. - Sunday, 11 P. M. No one to blame but myself. I present my body to Cooper’s Medical College. Do not investizate. EDNA CORERIVEAU. The woman whose hand wrote these lines presented a shockingsight yesterday when her dead body was found on the floor of her home at 3160 Twenty-fourth street. The body was on the floor near | the piano and surrounding it was a | ghastly array of bottles and jars of poison, enough to have killed halt of the people in the block. The position of the body showed that her death was painful in the extreme, for the head was bent forward until it almost reached the feet. The room, which was | elegantly furnished, was almost unbear- able, for she had been dead since June 27. The shocking discovery was made by Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Dugan, who recently moved into the house. Thus ended a life that was full of ro- | mance, mystery and, some say, crime. Tne woman, whose maiden name was Edna Dean, first came into prominence through her connection with Louis Cor- riveau, thej wealthy barber and owner of a bath establishment on Geary street, near Grant avenue, who died about two years ago. It seems that several years | azo the barber became iufatuated with the woman, wko at that time kept a lodg- | ing-house of no uncertain repute. He sold out his establishment for a goodly sum, and with the woman went | to live at 3160 Twenty-fourth street, and | he at times spoke of her as his wife. At any rate she passed as Mrs. Corriveau from that time on, although no priest or magistrate ever said the words that made them husband and wife. She claimed to | bave a marriage contract, but no one | ever saw it. Two years ago the barber became sick and died, but before he passed away he told his physician that he was possessed large amount of property, som -thing like $70,000, most of which wasin cash and negotiable papers, such as bonds, etc. In | his last moments Corr.veau intimated | that almost all of his weaith was in a box in a closet in the bedroom, bu: after his death not a cent of the $70,000 could be found, although the entire house was searched and diligent inquiry made at all of the banks. His relatives came out from Canada and employed detectives to aid in the search, but to no purpose. To tnis day where the money went is a mystery. A little later the woman who bore his name began to exhibit evidence of wealth that made people wonder. She fiited up the house in an elegant manner and dressed beiler than she ever did before. More than that she kept a horse and cart, with which she made & stunning ap- pearance in the park. All of the time | that she lived on Twenty-fourth street she did not mingle with her neighbors, probably because they did not court her company, for all shunned the house of mystery, as her residence was called. For some time past her conduct has been called to the attention of the police, and she was warned not to be so boid in her conduct. The woman’s house wasa rendezvous for a number of strangers, who went and came at all hours of the day and night. Tue women who called upon lier were mostly of youthful apnear- rance, the majority being between 16 and |20 years of age. The men, on the con- trary, were all aged, and more than that they were well-dressed. | ~ The cause of the woman’s suicide is, like | her lite, -a mystery, but it is said she failed to secure the affections of a mun to whom she was greatly attached. Others | believe that unfortunate business ventures | was the cause. When the house was | searched only $15 was fournd. At one | | time Mrs. Corriveau, as she was called, was a beautiful woman, and at the time of her death she still possessed a fair share of good looks for one of about 35 years. THE OLOSING SOENES, Fourth of July Committee’s Nearly Ended The Fourth of July Committee held a meeting at headquarters last evening for the purpose of closing up its business as far as possible. The finance commitiee reported that in accordance with instructions it had gone about collecting money for the celebration until it received instructions to make no more collections, and that the money col- lected is being returned as rapidly as pos- sible. The regatta committee handed in a list of expenses, which were referred to the auditine committee. The prize medals were turned over to the Pacific Coast Amuteur Athletic Asso- ciation for delivery 10 the winners. The auditing commitiee reported favor- ably on bills aggregating as follows: General expense, $122 33: office_expenses, 129 12; newspapers, §163; decoration, 8387 60; fireworks, $5: regatta, $110; sni- aries, §150; carriages, $127; music, $244 50; rebates, $15. Total, $2901 05. The following resolution was unanim- ously adopted: Resolved, Tnat this committee tender its thanks 10 the 10.10wing persous, firms and cor- potations. for their patriotic kindness in aid- Work ceiebrate the one hundred and twenty-first anniversary of the American independence, to-wit: A.

The commitiee will h0ld a banquet at Delmonico’s Saturday evening, after which it will adjourn sine die. Treasurer J. S. Devlin announces that he will be at headquarters after 1 P. M. to- day to settle all bills. TEACHERS’ SALARIES. Superintendent Webster Says There Is No Probability That Any Will Lose Them. The story from Sacramento to the effect that 7000 teachers in the State stood in danger of losing their salaries, because the State Printing Office had not received an appropriation suflicient to enable it to print the school 1egisters, causes no alarm at the oflice of the Board of Educa- tion. ‘“‘Long ago,” said Superintendent Web- ster yesterday, “I received a communica- tion from State Superintendent Black, in- forming me that the S‘ate could ifurnish no registers, and I would have to sesthat the local authorities printed them. I pre- sume the same communicalion was sent to every County Superintendent. Iknow that I have already ma le a requisition on the local board for 700 registers, and I have allowed for the cost of printing all that we will require in my astimates of the funds required for the department this fiscal vear. There isnot the slightest probability that any teacher will lose his salary for the want of a register, and if any salaries are lost it will be for good cause.” e ————— EMPORIUM AND GOLDEN RULE. Incorporation of a Financlally Strong Company Yesterday. Articles of incorporation of the Em- porium and Golden Rule Bazaar were filed in the office of the County Clerk yester- day. The purposes for which this corporation is formed are to carry on and own a gen- eral department store, to borrow and loan money, to sell and hvpothecate its bonds and to do all things needful for managing its business, There are eight directors and share- holders, who have subscribed for stock as follow: M. H. Hecht, $100,000; Henry D-rnham, $50,000: Albert Dernham, $40,000; Andrew M. Davis, $50,000; F. W. Dohrmann, $50,000; J. F. Hink, $50,000; Wiiliam Kaufmar, $50,000; Marcus L. Gerstle, $10,000. The capital stock is lim- ited to $500,000. AN ENORNOUS TRAVEL In Eight Days Seventy-Four Ogden Trains Have Ar- rived Here, These Brought 24,000 People—Other Roads Swell the Total to 40,000. Master of Transportation Richardson of tne Southern Pacific yesterday compiled some remarkable fizures relative to tha immense volume of Cbristian Endeavor travel from Ogden to this City. These fig- ures, coming just at this time, have a pe- culiar interest, illustrating as they do the extraordinarily large number of trains and cars handled. Besides these fizures are submitted by Fillmore and Mr. Goodman showing by days the travel westward and giving a total of 23,800 Endeavorers leaving Ogden for San Francisco during the past eight day They beat all former records by over 100 per cent. These ara the figures and they tell an interesting story: FROM OGDEN. Total number of trains July 1 to and incl ing seconu section 4, July 8, 74. Of these there were specials or second @ c- tions of regular trains to the number of 39. Total number of cars, 838. Total number of cars exclusive of head ca: ana diners, 651 Of the total cars there were, coaches, 102. Approximate esiimate of ' passengers sent West from Ogden for eizht days: Julv 1, 800; 2, 800; 3, 1200; 4, 2500; 5.7000; 6,7000; 7, 3000; 8, 1500. Tota. ,800. “I presume we've had 1500 from the North and 3500 to 4000 from Los Angeles and Mojave. The lastof the cials will be here irom Ogden to-morrow afternoon,”’ said Manager Fillmore. “Whnen it is re- membered that, with all this passenger traffic, far transcending, as it does, any- thing in the previous history of California or any road, not a wheel has broken nor an accident of any kind has occurred, it is the greatest feat on record. *'Not a single break nor hitch has hap- pened. This, too, when many in the East had expressed doubt about our ability to handle these psople. However, from the first there was never any question about our handling the Endeavorers in perfect shape.” General Passenger Agent Goodman yes- terday wired the following dispatch to Vice-President Stubbs and other absent officers of the road: Grandest and most successful achlevement of the age, breaking the world’s record for a single track, especially so Monday and Tues- dey. From July 1 to date 24,000 Christian Endeavor tickeiz passed Ogdeun. The jeople were carried for 900 miles over heavy grades in regular order as trains have been delivered to us at Ogden, all in good condition, inciud- ing luggage. Mr. Goodman said: *I estimate we have brought now about 24,000 Endeavor- ers from Ogden. Besides this we have had 10.000 in from California points, and from Orezon, Washington, Arizona, etc., 6000, making nearly 40,000 people in all. There are more than twice as many as came to attend the Grand Army conclave about twelve years ago. There has been nothing at any time before that began to approach this.” *“It looks very much as though we would have the last of the special Endeavorer trains in from Wadswortn to-morrow about noon,” said Mr. Richardson at 2 P. M. yesterday. ‘‘There are about wenty trzins still to come. Probably half will come'to-night and the otherten to-mor- row.’ A great many Endeavorers and their friends have come here from Oregon, ‘Washington and other States 10 the north and British Columbia by steamer. The railrozd says that, in fact, the steamers got the most of them. This will swell the number of vititors by some thousands. R — Presiding Judg. awell Overwhelmed. So many applications for the signing.of ex parte papers are made to Presiding Judge Sea- well that he finds it necessary to limit his hours for such_business. During the present month all such papers may be presented fo Judge Seawell from 9 to 10 o’clock in the fore- noou and from 1 to0 2 in the atternoon. ——————— Grand Larcsny Charged.

He Was Waiting in His Old Office for the Arresting Officer. Oolonel D. M. Burns and Thomas H. Williams Jr. Again Assume the Heavy Bonds. 0. M. Welburn, the ex-Collector of In- ternal Revenue, is again plunged into hot water. He was arrested yesterday on a warrant similar to the first charging him with embezzlement. The complaint, sworn to by Special Treasury Agent L. A. Thrasher, contained four counts. The first count, in the langunage of the complaint, charges that on September 30, 1896, he *‘did then and there unlawfully convert to his own use and thereby em- bezzle certain public mopey, to wit, the sum of $81 60, which said amount was temporarily in his custody as Collector aforesaid, for the purpose of enabling him to make payment of 2 certain salary due to a clerk- or employe of the United States.” The other counts are in the same lan- guage, excepting the dates and amounts. Count No. 2 shows that on November 4, 1896, he embezzled in this way $84 20; No. 3 that on November 30, 1896 he convertea to his own use $8) 60; on January 20, 1897, $84 20 went in the same direction; on February 12 of this year $86 10 was aaded to the Collector’s private pool; February 26 he put $77 80 into his pocket. Iorsome reason March was skipped, for the next count shows that it was not until April 24 'hat he held out on his clerk the sum 0f $86 10, The last, according to the com- plaint, was on Muy 5 of this year, when the clerk was filched out of $82 40. In every instance the clerk’s name was | omitted in the complaint, but inquiry de- | veloped that it was none other than K. C. Akins, the same one whose name ap- peared in the first complaint, on which Welburn was arrested a week ago. The issuance of these warrants, the ar- rest of tue accused and bis release on bail were all on railroad time. It was a little aiter 1 o’clock when the warrant was sworn to before Commissioner Heacock, arrested by Marshal Baldwin. Oue hour afier this he walked out of the building a comparatively free man, his only 1n- cumbrance being a bond of $10,000, in ad- dition to the one of $5000 that he was obliged tosecure shortly aiter his first ar- rest. By some coincidenc: that no one | could explain Welburn was on hand to be arresied, and Marshal Baldwin was through the gay part of town. Welburn was in the office over which he formerly presided as the chief, when the warrant was served. He was taken up to the Marshal's ofice at once, where bhe had onlv to wait an hour before a | friend could secure the attendance of bondsmen. Colonel Daniel M. Burns and Thomas H. Wiiliams Jr. quickly re- sponded to a telephione call and qualified in the sum of $10,000. Both are on the other bond, and are thus responsibls for Welburn’s appearance, or liable to the forfeiture of $15,000. Commissioner Heacock set the hearing of the case for 10:30 o’clock on the 19th inst., as Welburn’s attorneys said that he | wanted the last cases tried first. The first | case comes up at the same hour on July Welburn expressed grea.annoyance that Treasury Agent Thrasher should “‘pile up cases on him,” when the same purpose would be served by letting the first charge ba the test case. He rather views it asa persecution, and deciares that the ends of justice would be served by one case as well as by a hundred, partic- { ularly whore the same clerk, Akins, is in- volved in the whole matter. Welburn says that assoon as his chief deputy, Louis Loupe, recovers from his illness, he will put this matter straight before the public, for all the apparent embezzlements can be explained as legitimate transactions, ARMY CHANGES, Several Officers Transferred From One Post to Another—Battery at Fort Baker. Major Thomas M. K. Smith, First In- fantry, has been relieved from duty at the San Diego barracks and upon the arrival of another officer for duty at that post he will prcceed to the Benicia barracks to assume command, vice Lieutenant-Col- onel Evan Miles, former commarder at that post, recently promoted colonel of the First Infantry and assigned to the command of the post at the Presidio.

The steamer McDowell will make one trip to that point every day hereafter, except Sunday, until orders to the con- trary are given. 3 > BURGLAR3 FRUSTRATED, The Kesidence of 2homas Magee ¥n- tered by Night Prowlers. x The residence of Thomas Magee, the real estate agent, at 1921 Octavia street, was entered by burglars last Wednesday night during the absence of the famiiy. The thieves gained an entrance into the yard by cutting their way tnrough a side door which leads from the garden along the side of the house under the conserva- tory. From the yard they lost no time in working their way into the houss by raising the kitchen window. Fortunately there was nothing of any consequence that could be removed, as all vaiuables had been locked up previous to the family leaving for the country. e Will Celebraie a Success. Ata weeting of the Buena Vista Improve- ment Cluk held Saturday evening at Franks' Hall, Filimore street, a report was received from the committ_e on removing liens. cavsed by the assessment levied for the builling ui the Fell-street sewer system. The committee appointed about six niontus ago waited upon Mr. Mhoon, the attorney for the club, and re- quested him to have these long-pending suits aismissed. When the commitiee had obtained & number of signatures to their petition, the necessary motion was made and 120 liens were removed thereby. The club decided to celebrate thisachiievement by givir g a banquet in the near iuture. The commitice consists of William Witts and E. —————————— The Joke i roved Fatal. Miss Kittie Montgomery died early yesterday morning in a hospital from the «ffects ot an 1n- jury sustained on the 4th ot July. She was l firing a pistol with blank cartridges in a room and an hour later Collector Welburn was | saved the annoyance of a nocturnal search | a1 626 California street, and in a spirit of fun cxclaimed that it was an_easy matier to com- mit suicide. With thisshe pointed the litile weapon at her breastand pulled the trigger. The wadding from the cartridge and & part of her dress were blown into the right Jung, causing a wound from wh.ch she did not re- cover. She was about 20 years of ege anda native of this State. An inquest will pe-beld, although the police are satisfied that her death was accidenia.. Sl HARD TIMES; THEIR CAUSE. Profossor Longstreet, a Single-Taxer, Will Tell What He Knows About Them. Professor B. F. Longstreet of Boston, famous as a single-tax orator, will lecture at Shiels’ building, 32 O'Farrell street, to-morrow evening, on ‘“‘Hard Times and What Causes Them.” Professor Longstreet is said to be one of the most elcquent men on the platform to-day. He was formerly a physician of large practice in Boston. Becoming con- vinced that a great truth lay in the phil- osophy of the single tax he gave up his practice and has since devoted his time and talents to spreading it. He is mak- g a tour of the country, and is now head- ing for Washington, He will remain here sonie days. The Iroquois Ciub has designated its next meetiug as “‘a single-tax night,” and Professor Longstreet will form one of the speakers on that oecasion. a5 AR OBSTRUOTING THE SIDEWALK. D. E. Bohannan Arrested While stand- ing Reading a Newspaper. D. E. Bohannan, a solicitor for the Pa- cific Mutual Life Insurance Company, was arrested yesterday morning on the corner of Geary ana Kearny streets by Police- man C. M. Barnes on the charge of ob- structing the sidewalk. He was released on §5 cash bail. Bobannan lives in Berkeley, and says that while on the boat and on the car from the ferry he was interested in read- ing the report of the Bryan meetingsin the papers. After he leit the car he con- unued reading as he started to walk along the sidewalk. He paused for a moment and just then the policeman graboed him by the shoulder, tearing his coat, and told him that he was under arrest. He asked the policeman what he was arrested for, and was surprised to be told that it was 1or obsiructing the sidewalk. The officer was inclined to be rough, and Bohannan grabbed him by the sieeves of nis coat so that he could not strike him. The -officer struggled to release his arms from Bohannan’s grasp and a crowd gath- ered, who sympathized with the citizen, and some of them gave him their cards, promising to appear in court to testify in his favor. LOOKS LIKE A HOAX. Lizzle M. Flecheimer Writes That She Will Commit Suicide. Coroner Hawkins yesterday received a letter by mail signed by Lizzie M. Flec- heimer, in which the writer stated that she was abouf to end her life by drowning 1n the bay. The writer declared that the reason of her despondency was ihe brutal treat- ment of her uncle, who had robbed her of | money leit to her by her dead father. She gave the name of a well-known druggist, who upon beirg interviewed declared that he never knew such a girl, and that no one of that name is or was related to bim or his family. The writer also stated that her effects were left at 610 Natoma street. The peo- ple there say that tbey never heard ot such a person. All of the interestea par- ties state that they believe that the whole matter is a hoax. CHARGED WITH BURGLARY. Thomas Prunty Booked for Breaking Into the Rooms of Dr. Morffew.

A student named Borysik has just passed the final examination at Warsaw University qualifying him to practice as a doctor of medicine in Russia. Borysik was born mn 1822 and was educated at | Suvalk Higher Grade School with a view to becoming a medical man. After pass- ing his matriculation lack of funds pre- vented him from at once proceeding to the university and he was compelled to work as a tutor for twenty years n order to save enough money to enable him to continue his studies. At the end of that | time he presented himseif at Warsaw Medical Academy and passed the entranc: examination with distinction. Before he could begin his studies the Polish rebellion of 1863 broke out, and Borysik, who was now 41 years of age, threw bimself into the movement with all the enthusiasm of a youthful revolution- ist. The revolt was suppressed and Bory- sik was exiled to Stberia, where for thirty- two years he underwent hord labor in the siiver mines. In 1895 he received a free pardon and returned to Warsaw. In spite of his age and the bardships he had endured Borysik had lost none of bis en- thusizsm for med cal work, and took up his studies where he had left them off in 1863. After a two vears’ course this re- markable man bas now, at the age of 75 years, passed the hnal medical examina- tion with honors, and will vegin to prac- tice in War- Lancet. ——————— Coal tar, when used for dyes, ytelds six- teen shades of blue, the same number of yellow tints, 1welve of orange, nine of vio- let and numerous other colors and shade: Pozzoni’s Complexion PowbpEr produces a soft and beautiful skin; it combines every element of beauty and | ney Dis: ases, Biininess.

The Robbers Are Now Being Shadowed by Officers of the Harbor Police, Many Minor Robberies Have Been Reported, but This Is the First of Any Magnitude. Bunko-steerers and sure-thing gamblers have been arrested by the dozen since the Christian Endeavorers began to arrive from the -East. Mrs. Swift, a lady from Michigan, arrived on the train yesterday and reported the loss of a small fortune. She was on the regular overland train and when the sleeping-car in which she had a berth came to a stop at the Oakland mole hor purse and all her jewelry were gone. The officers at the mole were notified, and a search of the train was made. No trace of the missing goods could be found. Word was sent to San Francisco, and on the arrival of the steamer Piedmout Mrs. Swift was interviewed by Sergeant Tom Mahoney of the Harbor Police. 8..e said that her purse, containing $2700 in greenbacks, two earrings in each of which was a diamond weighing two carats, and a diemond brooch valued at | §150, was taken irom under her pillow during the night. She was heart-broken over her lo: She had only a few cents in ber pocket when she reached this side of the bay. When the story was told to Sergeant Mahoney Le at once put the officers at the ferry on their guard and reported the matter to Ser eaut Dunleavy. The latter at once let Chief of Police Lees know what was zoing on, and Detectives Ezan and Silvey were put on the case. Every confidence man and every bunko-steerer | known to the police in San Fiancisco will | be shadowed, and the chances are that | two or three more will join those who were sent to the House of Correction by Judge Campbell last Wednesday. 8o far the Christian Eodeavorers have been wonderfully lucky. As yet no case of missing baggage has been reported, and this is the first occasion on which anything has been lost on any of the trains between Ozden and San Francisco. Yesterday, however, the Harbor Pulice had some work to do. At 3P. M. when the transfer-wagons were at their busiest one of them went away overloaded. While trying to get out of the way of a Valen- cia-street car a trunk fell iato the street. The driver of the wagon did not notice bis loss and drove on along Market street. The driver ot a coal-wagon saw the fall of the trunk and stopping his team picked up the trunk and drove on. People who were looking on hallooed tothe transfer man, ana be stopped his team and came back. In the meantime the coal-wagon had turned the corner into Steuart sireet and was out of sight. The matter was reported to Captain Dunleavy ard two of the police officers were defailed on special duty to look up the matter. The chances are that the driver will be run to earth, and Captain Dunleavy thinks that the man, being in a hurry, simply took the trunk along with him ratner than chuse after the transfer man. H: has no doubt whatever but that the missing baggage will be returned to its owner 'o-dav. Captain Dunleavy said yesterday: *“I have never seen a more orderly crowd in San Francisco and 1 have never had fewer complaints. OIf course, with every large gatherin: you may expect to find bunko-steerers, sure-thing gamblers, sn-akihieves and some of the worst kind of criminals. On this cccasion the rail- road authoriti+s have exercised the best of judgment, and it appears to me that ull the crooked work t at is being done is being done right here 1 San Francisco. So perfect, howerver, is the espionage that is being kent by the men detailed by Chief Lees that the ilk of whom I have spoken have had very little chance to get in their work. The biggest and, in fact, the only robbery reported so far is thatof Mrs, Smith.” MELANCHOLIA REMATURENESS ASTED CONDITIONS VARICOCELE COASTIPATION LOST MAKHOGD I | Last | man, Clay | day, July 12, NEW TO-DAY—AMUSEMENTS.
