April Showers Interfere With Yearly Evolutions at Berkeley, Which Are Hurriedly Performed, the Sham Battle, Muddy Condition of the Campus Grounds, Being Omitted Further Investigation Does Not Throw Any Light on the Subject. Unrequited love seems to be the only reason for the suicide of Fred Carl Hath- away, the 16-year-old lad, who ended his life on Saturday evening by inhaling {lluminating gas in a lodging-house at 737 Market street. Hathaway came to San Francisco from Placer County, one month ago, and as he was a good pianist, sought congenial employment in Sher- man, Clay & Co.’s music store. 1 tigation yesterday showed that Hathaway was a steady lad and attended strictly to business, He lived with his brother at 937 Post street and spent his evenings at home. If he had any cause | to worry he kept the fact to himself. | Neither his brother nor the employes of heard him make complaint. The fragments of the torn letters found in the room where Hathaway committed suicide furnish the only clew to the motive for self-destruction. The young man re- celved a letter on Saturday from New- castle, Placer County, and the torn frag- ments show that it was written by “Emily in.’ the writer referring many, times giving her address as “Post- office box - Hathaway's brother said vesterday that he did not know any one by the name of m i in,”” but that a family of that ame resided at Newcastle, which is two miles from Ophir, Placer County, e Hathaway’s mother and his stepfather re- side 1t is thought by the police and the Cor- oner’s deputies that young Hathaway had reccived a_letter informing him that the writer had transferred ‘her affections to another and that in a despondent mood he killed himself. The body of Hathaway was removed from the Morgue vesteréay and will be | shipped to his parents at Ophir to-day.

Debts Aggregate $17,179 94 and Clothes Are His Only Assets. ‘Walter R. Dinmore, who resides at the Palace and whose matrimonial venture with Mrs. Cone of Denver—their estrange- ment and the sudden flight to the East of the blushing bride—caused much gossip recently, is again before the public. Yesterday Dinmore, or at least his at- torney, George D. Collins, on his behalf filed in the United States District Court a petition in bankruptcy. The document explains that Dinmore is on the wrong side of the ledger to the amount of $17.- 179 94 and that he has nothing upon which his creditors can levy excepting wearing apparel valued at $300. 'The heaviest creditors are those who hold bills that member of the firm of the Diamond Soap | Company. W. A. Levy of Petaluma holds Dinmore’s notes to the amount of 2 and Wells, Fargo & Co.'s Bank is down for $4881. Jules Gamage, the bad debt col- lector, is also down on the list for $746. Dinmore includes among his debts a number of personal bills, among them be- ing_one for $275 from the firm of Bullock & Jones for clothing and neckwear. Dinmore has for some time been con- nected as a salesman with the firm of Wetmore & Co., wine merchants. He engaged commodious rooms in the Palace Hotel and decorating them in a tasty | manner, put a mercantile sign over the door and awaited wine patrons. He met with immediate success and large num- bers of the t?‘urlsts who were staying at the Palace vigited his quarters and pur- chased California wines. Dinmore says in reference to the bank- ruptey proceedings that he has acknowl- edged a number of accounts that he had no business to; that he is bothered by creditors morning, noon and night, and that he is tired of it. He says' that though he has started Insolvency .pro- ceedings that this does not mean he will not recognize all bills. Enrvoncr. IS GRANTED TO | MRS.
