Mr. Eltringham was | realizes the awful scenes she has passed through her mind plainly shows a weak- er condition, and it is feared she will evade the vigilance of her watchers and take her own life. It is thought it will be necessary to place her where she will be properly treated for her lady. It was learned to-day that one day before his fatal visit to the Eltringham home Clark visited the home of a woman between here and Vallecito and insulted the mistress of the house. He was promptly driven off the place. At an autopsy held this morning it was ascertained that the bullet tore out the heart of the dead man completely and broke an arm and two ribs. Death must have been instantaneous. El- tringham will be held for a preliminary ng. : hea The rdict rendered by the Coroner’s jury has met approval. The verdict exonerating Eltringham is looked upon the only one that could have been rendered in the face of the testimony. But there are some who believe that the sad affair was a premeditated murder. | The fact that the father and brother of Mrs. tringham had, with Eltring- ham, cut off all paths of retreat from | the Eltringham house, in accordance with a previous agreement between the three, is taken as evidence that they had deliberately planned to murder Clark. | Clark was a camparative stranger here. He been around Vallecito and Angels Camp for two weeks or | more and seemed anxious to obtain | employment. From the statements | made by Mrs. Eltringham it was gath- ered that the ex-volunteer was familiar with her family affairs. Although El- tringham did not know Clark, or had | no recollection of having seen him be. | fore he fired the fatal shot, Clark knew Eltringham, whom he described to Mrs, Eltringham as “that long fellow,” and said that he was afraid of him. He also knew who her brother was and told how he had ridden to town on a wagon | which Brattos was driving after one | of his expeditions to the Eltringham | place. Brattos did not know Clark. It is taken from this that the flend had carefully noted the time when Mrs. El- | tringham would be alone. | termaster when the men were | on the personal s THE BED CROSS 5 DNCE MORE T0 THE FRONT Will Look After the‘ Home-Comers. 1 THAT OVERCOAT QUESTION | THOUSANDS OF HORSES FOR | THE PHILIPPINES. ! ceLget They Will Be Sent to the Presidio | to Await Shipment as Fast as Vessels Can Be Made Ready. g | | | The Red Cross Society has taken up (he! matter of clothing the returning volun- | teers, and will probably solve it in some way within a d It was thought | at one time y had | been settled, ar .

The representatives of the College of P ans and Surgeons decided to let Cooper and the medical de- partment of the University have first choice of wards. By th® present arrange- ment the College of Physicians and Sur- geons has three and one-half wards and | the other two colleges four wards each.

She was left penniless but in some way, possibly realizing on her jewels, she secured funds with which to return to San Francisco and arrived here three weeks ago. She went at once to Bailey and pleaded to be taken back, but dur- ing her absence he had made other ar- rangements; another fair one was rul- ing the hearth at 110 Jones street. A few nights later after a whirl across the E street divide, which was interrupted only as often as the absinthe . could be frozen, Florence | broke in on the peace and quiet at the Jones street apartments with an idea of doing harm to hersuccessor. The dis- turbance she raised was of such ample proportions that she was ordered out by the landlady and Bailey received an ultimatum not to let it happen again. Then drink got the upper hand Flor- ence became melancholy and b ed over her troubles almost constantly Her prosperous past was dead to her: she ! had gone her pace and in eight short years had found the finish. Between brooding and drinking she worked her- self into another frenzy and a few days ago again went to Bailey's stable. She found him just about to drive out and seizing the carriage whip from its socket she used it on him without mercy. Then she went home and took car- bolic acid. Prompt work saved her life, and on Friday last she was able to leave her | rooms. She telephoned to one of her companions, Lil Nelson, and her mother, forsaking Senator Bettman for the night. The three left for the cele- bration at the Chutes. Their night was one of drunken revelry and abandoned gayety.

Ar- rived at Market street, she made her way rapidly to Bailey's rooms, where she raised another disturbance. Bailey came out to her and begged her to ba quiet. He said he would get a carriace and they would find other rooms, and she promised to wait there until he had | done so. But, either doubting Bailey's good faith or laboring under another fit of melancholy, she broke her promise and hurried out to her home and stole qui- etly in. Without rousing any one she made her way to her room, where for days she had kept concealed a bottle of laudanum. Her determination to suicide had not come in a moment. Since she had been deserted in New York she had thought of it, and as her melancholy increased the idea became so fixed in her mind that it was always with her. Her let- ters indicated it, as did her conversa- tion. Life to her was so cheap as to be scarcely worth the taking. But she took the draught, and an hour or so later her almost lifeless body was found dressed as she had returned from her night at the Chute: To hush the matter up » the first matter to which the attention of Sena- tor Bettman and his mistress, the dead girl’'s mother, was turned. If it be- came known that she had suicided the whole disgraceful story of the riotous life at the Devisad treet house would transpire at the inquest. Bettman decided that it would be best to have the body taken at once to the Columbarium and there cremated, but here the dead girl's brother, Royal Par- ker of Fresno, stepped in. He had stood the disgraceful state of affairs for vears, he said, but he would not stand any such cold-blooded scheme as Bett- man proposed. His sister’s body should be buried with that of his father in the cemetery at Stockton, and this Bettman, although the head of the house, was compelled to assent to He went to the proper people. how- ever, and making v of his entreaties and political pull induced them to de- cide that Florence Parker had died of dilation of the heart and Kkindred troubles.
