DAL BAVEIRS -~ EXACTS HONEY He Refused to Meet Con-| nolly for a Percentage of the Receipts. | Acrimonious Meeting Between | Knickerbocker Club Directors | and the Lightweight. Fifteen Hundred Dollars to Be De- posited Before the Battle Ocours. | | There was considerable agitation in | pugllistic circles last night owing to the rumor which became generally preva- | lent that Dal Hawkins had given up his | | contest with Eddie Connolly to fight | twenty rounds under the auspices of the | Knickerbocker Athletic Ciub on the 15th of next month. It was stated that owing 1o the report that the fight had beeu fixed and that Connolly had agreed tolie down that-Hawkins had refused to fulfill his part of the contract in meeting Connolly. | For some time there have been stories there was a job in the coming con- tesi. These rumors were accentuated by the disgraceful showing made by God- | dard in his recent contest with Sharkey, | and also by the outcome of the Kennedy- | Lansing bout. | Thesestatements were sifted to the bot- | tom by a CALL representative. His in- | vestigations disclosed tne fact that there | was a healed and acrimonious meeting of the directors of the Knickerbocker Club |and the doughty Hawkins on Friday | evening. | " Inthe presence of Zeke Abrahams and | ! Danny Lynch Hawkins emphatically de- clared that he would not on with Con- | nolly on the evening ol the 15th proximo | unless the club put up a stipulated guar- antee in the form of a certitied check that he would receive adequate compensation | for licking his man if the result of the pattle terminated that way.

The police are continuing their search for Andrew Eatto, the missing ex-car in- spector from New York, who is supposed | to have been foully dealt with by two bunko men. Seven bunko men are now in ‘‘the tanks,” but the remainder have appar- { ently fled from the city, as they cannot [be found at their accustomed baunts. | Captain Bohen is dctermined to have every one that can be found brought in and compelied to promise to leave the city or be sent up for vagrancy.

AN EARLY MORNING FIRE. | _MORN | Coburn & Tevis’ Paint and Oil Store | Damage! by a Conflagration. What is admitted to be spontaneous combustion caused au early morning fire in the paint and oil store of Coburn & Tevis at 107 Front street at 3:30 o’clock yesterday morning. The fire originated in the rear portion of the basement, and spread with rapid- ity over the entire floor, as when the de- partment arrived the entire place was ablaze. Safficient streams were, how- ever, turned on the ignited material to subdue it before any other portion of the bunding or inflimmable material was af- fected. The damage, which is secured by in- surance, amounted to about $4000. Water damaged ¢qially as much of the stock as did the fire, as in this case Chief JAMES WILLETT, the Fugitive Baden Suspect. LLETT STILL 00T OF JA Sheriff Mansfield Searching | for the Third Baden Suspect. Circulars Giving His Descrip- tion Sent Throughout the Country. | The Much-Sought-For Criminal Was | Formerly a Member of the Salvation Army. Notwithstanding the efforts of Sheriff | Mansfield and hisdeputies James Willett, the third banait wbo 1s wanted for the | murder of C. A. Andrews at Baden on the right of November 17, is still at large. Yesterday Chief Lees received the fol- lowing description of the suspect: Arged 32 years, laborer, 5 feet 10!{ inches in height, biue and gray eyes, brown hair, | wesrs a No.9 shoe, weight about I pounds, long features, high receding fore- head, long aquiline nose, high cheek- ! bones, small ‘mouth, rounded chin, smalt ears, teech regular. Has an India-ink mark in the center of forenead, blue dot | above the outer corner of left eye and two small blue dots on back of the right hand near the index finger. He has long, siout arms and thick | fingers, is stoop-shouldered, ot stout| build, and will probably be found around | Salvation Army quarters. There is a re ward of $250 offered for bis arrest. The records of the Police Department show that Willett was arrested on the | night of November 17, 1890, for passing a | counterfeii $25 bill, and was sent to the | House of Correction for six months. Shortly after being discharged he and a man named Kelly were caught in the act of breaking into a wine cellar at 311 Pa- cific street, and were convicted of purglary. Wiliett was held to answer for the crime on January 14, 1891, and a few weeks later was sent to Folsom for ten years, Last night a Sacramento Deputy Sheriff visited yolice headquarters and identified the photograph of Willett as that of a| man he had seen hanging around Angels Camp. It is c'aimed. that after being discharged from the penitentiary Willett tramped about the country, finally joining the Salvation Army in Los Angeles. He afterward came to this ¢ty and | men of moral worth. joined the local Salvation Army. He pro- fessed to be penitent and promised to lead a better life and subsequently he went to L»s Angeles and joined the Army of the Lord. Meeting some of his old associ- ates he got drunk and was dismissed from the army. From Los Angeles he drifted to this city and finally went to Baden, where he met Raymond and Win- ters, his allered accomnplic BUILDING A CHARACTER.

HEARSE WAS TO0O SMALL, A Wagon Had to Be Used in Burying a Six-Hundred-Pound Woman. Mrs. Teresa Serdoz, a woman weighing nearly six hundred pound-, was buried yesterday from the Valente-Marini un- dertaking parlors. Great trouble was en- countered in preparing the woman for burial, owing to her great size. A special | coffin had to be made, and, as no hear-e nearse could be found large enough to re- ceive the body, a wagzon was used instead. Eight men acted as pallbearers. Mrs. Serdoz's death was unexpected, a: she was feeling well up tothe time she died. Her end was peaceful. She had gone to bed presumably in good health last Friday night, and was found dead the next morning by her children. 1ln re« moving her body to tie undertaking pariors the bannisters had to be torn away. Mrs. Serdoz had not left her home dur- ing the past .our vears, and her only ex- ercise consisied of moving from her bed- room to the gitchen.

BURGLARY ON The Residence of Miss Smith Entered and Valuable Property Taken. In Their Haste to Get Away the Crooks Leave Their Tools Behind, Thought to Be the Men Who Have Been Operating in the West- ern Addition. hibited in the office of Chief Lees yester- day as “‘evidence’’ against a brace of burg- lars who have not yet been captured. The *‘tools” were found in the residence of Miss Smith of 790 Geary street late Fri- day night. Shortly after 8 o'clock Friday evening Miss Smith left her houe to visit a friend. She returned about 11 o’clock and was surprised to find the front door open. Summoning a neighbor they entered the bouse and found the lantern and *‘jimmy”’ in the hallway. A subsequent examination revealed that the burglars had partly ransicked the house, securing a valuabie gold watch and some diamonds b-longing to Miss Smith. Miss Smith, and dropping their *‘tools” made their esca Policeman Collins, whose beat is on ary street, was at once informed of the burglary. thorough search of the ne borhood, but without finding a trace of the burglars. During the past week several houses in the same vicivity have been entered and considerable property taken. In one of the pliaces the burglars, evi: dently becoming irightened, left a dark iantern behind them. The detectives are | convinced that thes2 *‘jobs’’ were com- mitted by the same men who entered the residence of Miss Smith. Shortly before she returned home two men, one of whom is described as being tall and wearing a dark slouch hat, were seen standing on the opposite side of the street, as though waiting for somebody. and'gotin the shadow of a grocery-siore. In a few minutes they retraced the:r sters and stood on the corner, apparently waii- 1ng 20 opportunity to enter the house. From an investigation made by Detec- tives Bee ana Harper yesterday they are convinced thai the burglars gained an aid of a skeleton key.

Brglsky stated that he bad lost $10 with his bankbook, instead of $10,000, and ad- mitted that his depo=its in t.e bank ag- gregated $4200.
