The body of the dead man has been brought to Alameda, where the funeral will take place. Morss was at one time one of the largest lumber dealers in San Franeisco and lived in Alameda. Some years ago he lost a great deal of his money. He suffered a stroke of paralysis and then his mind and his health began to fail His condition became so bad that about tWo years ago he was sent to the Agnews -.sylum. His mind gradually left him and he became a total wreck. Allen was ordered to give Morss a bath yesterday afternoon. and two inmates were detalled to assist him. According to the testimony that was given at the In- quest this morning by Allen and all con- cerned. the water ran a little cold at first, Allen then turned on the hot water full | head.

The rabbitry on Mr. Morosco's country place at Fruitvale was like a shambies this morning when one of the keepers went out to the inclosure to attend to the valuable pets. Every one of the long- eared occupants had been slain and in a manner most mysterious. The keepers as well as Morosco are deeply puzzled to know how the hares lost their lives. It is not known whether dogs broke in and played havoc with the caged pets or Wwhether they were killed bv some human miscreant. The police have been asked to investi- zate the crime. which deprives Mr. Mo- rosco of his §150 worth of blue-blooded stock. Among the slain was Brit Ladd. a Lord Briton buck, valued at $350. Helen Grant. a magnificent doe. was another famous hare which was killed. The owner does not belleve that dogs directly, because the ashington. she would gain rabbit hutches were proof against ingress of any animal of that kind. unless some person had opened them. The pens are wired and the gates locked with heavy spikes, making it impossible for a dog to reach the hares uniess the gates were first opened.
