The murder of Charles Daniels, night watchman, by Mrs. Catherine Coarum at her residence, 1133 Clay street, Tuesday night is assuming the appearance of hav- ing been premeditated, notwithstanding her statements to the contrary. When she was arrested she said that she shot McDaniels with his own revolver, which he had taken out of his pocket and put on a table a few minutes before. Yesterday morning Samuel Lippman, a clerk in Abraham Stern’s pawnshop, at 702 Kearny street, identified Mrs. Coarum at the City Prison as a woman who ex- changed an old revolver for the onc with which the murder was committed on Tuesday night between 7 and & o’clock. He told Captain Seymour that the woman came into the store and offered to trade en oli rusty revolver for a new one. He made the exchange and Mrs. Coarum paid $2 50 aifference in price. he not un- der the influence of liquor at the time and seemcd cool and collected. Lippman said he did not load the revolver for her. Captain Seymour sent Detective Crock- ett to the prisor: to ask the woman if she had made the exchange, and she admitted it. She thought as the revolver she had was practically useless it would be better for her to have a good one. She had had the old one years. She denjed that she had any in- tention of killing McDanieis when making the »xchange. She claimed that when she said she used McDaniels’ revolver in kill- ing him at the time she was arrested it was because she was so excited she did not know exactly what she was saving. @ ciiimieieioeiosiesirimieieiimimiiiik @ were the guests of the central committee. At the afternoon session there was a contest for the office of supreme repre- sentative to the Supreme Hive. There were two candidates and it was almost conceded the day before that the office would go to Lady Eudocia S. Moffat, ths State commander, but tne contest showed a different result, for Lady Lutetia A. Bean of Los Angeles was elected. A school of methods was then conducted by the supreme commander, who gave a full explanation of.the manner in which the business of the hives is to be con- ducted.

Kelly, a Cousin of Mayor Phelan, for the Place. Speculation is rife in the City Hall re- garding the successor to Captain Redd: as superintendent of the City and Count; Almshouse. No action has yet been taken by the Health Board, but it is said that | ‘W. J. Kelly, who was formerly emploved as clerk to Health Officer O'Brien, is be- | ing seriously considered for the position. Kelly is a cousin of Mayor Phelan, and this is not regarded as a factor that might militate against his appointment. Kelly has just returned from a trip % Europe, where he made a special study of institutions for the care of the sick poor. It is rumrored that should Dr. Suss- dorf be removed from the superintend- ency of the €ity and County Hospital that Kelly may be appointed fo succeed him should he not be selected for the Alms- house position. » Alfred Clarke, better known as ‘“Nob- by,” filed an application with the board yesterday for the position of Almshouse superintendent.
