T i Note Left by Deceased is a Puzzling Feature of the Affair. Oakland Office 8an Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, July 2. “My wife is the cause of what I have done. Farewell to all.” Such was the message that Louis Schubert left in his room at Broadway and Sixth street, where he died yes- terday under circumstances ‘which pointed strongly to suicide. But the mys- tery which enveloped the death of the for- mer East Oakland wagon bullder has been deepened to-day by the failure of the sur- | geons who held a post mortem examina- tion at the morgue to find the slightest trace of poison and there was no mark of violence self-inflicted or otherwise upon the body. The doctors made a very care- ful and detailed examination. After it had been completed Dr. J. T. Kitchings, who had charge of the autopsy, declared that Schubert had died from natural cause and that undoubtedly congestion of the lungs had been the trouble. views were upheld by who assisted at the post-mortem. That Schubert had intended to end his | life is the belief of his wife, who had left | him, and no later than last Friday, the ’!flme day he wrote his farewell message, had refused to return to her husband be- | cause of his cruelty. That same day he | rented the room at the Broadway lodg- ing nouse where he died. He had been residing in San_ Francisco since his re- turn from St. Louis, where, strangely enough, he had written a will less than | two weeks before the end came. | _ Schubert had been persistent in his ef- forts to induce Mrs. Schubert to return to him, but she said she feared for her life, as he had not only threatened to kill him- self, but her as well. Dr. Kitchings, who was called to attend Schubert on Sunday, found him in a dying | condition. The physician said yesterday that he was unable to find symptoms of poisoning, and he reported this afternoon upon the completion of the post-mortem examination that his diagnosis had been borne out. “It is not improbable that Schubert might have intended to commit sulcide,” said Dr. Kitchings, “but if he took any drug he thought was poisonous it was not the cause of death. The only possible cause as evidenced by the condition of the remains is congestion of the lungs, and the symptoms I found yvesterday indicated that disease. “The letters and other documents found bert had either intended to end his life or realizing that he was very ill had decided to attempt to throw a stigma upon the woman who had refused to again live with him.” The Coroner will hold an inquest to- morrow evening.

MISS McKENZIE IS BEING TRIED ON A NUMBER OF CHARGES BROUGHT BY PARENTS OF PUPILS IN HER SCHOOL. 2 k2 o HE trial of Miss M. McKenzie, principal of the Hancock Gram- mer School, commenced before the Board of Education yesterday morning. It ran along through the business hours of the day and finally adjourned to be taken up again on the morning of July 12. The parents of a number of unpromoted pupils have made charges of incompe- tence, of inattention to duties, of unfitness to teach, of awarding medals where no award should have been made and of re- fusing to stick to the course of study against Mi McKenzie, and the board is trying to find out what the charges are based upon R. W. Campbell represented Miss Me- Kerzie in the examination yecterday. Thomas D. Aitken represented 1e dis- plensed parents and Director Casse 1y pre- sided. ¢ With a desire to get down to business at cnce, Mr. Casserly called Miss McKen- zie as the first witness, but her counsel refused to allow her to go on the stand. He said Miss McKenzie was present to answer charges made against her, not to prove them. He suggested that the charges first be made and proved by the complainants and then when the time for the defense came he would put Miss Mc- Kenzie on the stand for examination and cross-examination. This aspect of the situation rather stag- gered the hoard, and when Campbell further declared that the charges had not been properly brought and moved that because of that fact they be dismissed, the board went so far as to take a vote on the proposition and decide that the charges were good enough to work on anyway. Teachers Testify. Charles W. Moores, vice president of the OPENING OF WICHITA INDIAN RESERVATION Secretary Hitchcock Decides Against Granting the Delay Desired by Cattle Interests. WASHINGTON, .July 1l—Secretary Hitchcock has decided that there is no authority of law permitting a delay un- til October 1 in the opening of the Wich- ita Indian reservation in Oklahoma, as desired by certain cattle interests. The Secretary’s announcement followed a hearing which he had given to repre- sentatives of the lessees and of companies which had loaned money on reservation cattle owned by the lessees. The cattle- men have paid the money up to the 1st of October and say an injustice would be done them if the reservation should be opened at the date proposed. There was a full and free discussion, but the Secretary did not feel that he had authority to grant the delay asked for. While he has announced no formal decision in the mat- ter, his views are to the effect stated, and rrepnratlon will be made for ogening the ands for settlement next month. EYMPATHIES OF CLERGY ARE WITH THE SPANISH Vatican Requested by United States to Secure Immigration of Amer- ican Priests to Cuba. ROME, July 1.—According to Vatican circles, one of the principal subjects of the recent conferences between Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop Chapelle and Cardi- nal Rampolla was how to devise means for counteracting the Spanish sympa- | thies of the priests in Cuba and the Philippines. It is said that the United States, through Cardinal Gibbons, re- quested that the necessary measures be taken to secure the immigration of Duteh, Belgian, French and_ American clergy- men to Cuba and the Philippines in order to Fndually dilute the pro-Spanish prin- ciples of the priesthood. It is added that the su, fon was favorably received at the Vi an. school, was the first witness called and Miss Coleman, teacher of the eighth grade, was the second. Both teachers told how the. principal had not ordered them to leave “Thanatopsis” and '‘Snowhound” out of the course of study, for those two poems were the ones upon which the pu- {ls had failed and which it was charged ad never been taught to the children. They also told how many times Miss Mc- Kenzie visited their classrooms and what lessons she gave. Then followed through the remainder of the morning and the greater part of the afternoon parents and pupils. They told how the children had done well in the school until they reached the eighth grade, where they failed of promotion into the high school. ere was also a great deal said about the lack of reports made by the teachers and the principal to the parents, all of which was directed toward showing that the par- ents were not kept informed of the stand- ing of their children. That ended the case against Miss McKenzie, The defendant was then called to the stand. With her she brought several typewritten pages. which at the first Guestion from her attorney she com- menced to read. Three or four of the pages were read before the board decided that the statement was more in the na- ture of argument than testimony, and consequently it was ordered filed without further reading. Miss McKenzie's testimony went to shcw that she had kept as close to the course of study as her pupils would allow. She said the puplls of her school are in a great proporiion of foreign families, and that they hear but little English at home; consequently they are backward in that study In school and when it came to the high school examinations that included matter the teachers had not been able to reach those children failed absolutely. Miss McKenzie referred to the course of study where it warns teachers against hurrying through without regard to thor- oughness, and also where it declares that OERESS 15 SHOWN IN ISSESSMENT ROLLS Increase of Five Millions in the Kern County Val- uations. AR PR Special Dispatch to The Call. BAKERSFIELD, July 1.—The County Assessor has turned his assessment books over to the Supervisors. He has not com- pleted footings, but approximately the total assessed valuation of property in this county is $20,000,000, an increase of $5,000,000 over last year. The increase is due to ofl development. ‘WOODLAND, July 1—Footings of the assessment roll show the total vaiuation of property, exelusive of the railroad as- sessment, to be $15,010,330. This is a fall- ing off from last year's assessment of $379,189, due principally to the decrease in the amount of wheat stored in ware- houses. STOCKTON, July 1.—The assessment roll of S8an Joaquin County this year foots up $29,864,768, which is $64,000 less than last year, owing to reduced values of grain on the first MondaY of last March, and the cutting off of railroad lines, which are now completed, and will this year be as- sessed by the State Board and de not now appear in the county valuation. Stocks of grain were larger than jast year, but the reduced value when the as- sessment was made was $450,000 on ac- unt of prices. Then there is a reduc- tion of $94,000 for churches, which are now exsmpt. A large increasé was made in dalry herds and farms, showing a grow- ing Industry the increase in dairy cows alone being 361,000 VISALIA, July 1.—The assessment roll s the change from a nine-year grammar school course to one of eight years must be made gradually. Acted as Substitute. Miss McKenzie said also that her school was in such a shape that she could not devote- much of her time to the higher grades, and that congequently they were left almost entirely to the vice principal and the class teachers. She said that out of 185 school days since December she has taught a class as a substitute forty-five days. This, she said, was an injustice to her and to the school. In September, 1900, she complained to the Superintendent of some of the teachers and asked for relief, but it was some time in coming. She read a copy of a letter she had sent to Superintendent Webster, and for a time it looked as if he was going to be called upon to explain why it was he did not bring the letter before the board. but it was shown that he brought the substance of it to the Directors’ notice and the mat- ter passed. About the neglect to teach “Thanatop- sis” and “Snowbound” in the course in English, Miss McKenzie said ghe was as surprised as anv one when, a few days before the close of school, she learned that the two poems had not been reached by the upper classes. She expected that her teachers would reach them. and she was disappointed when they did not. Regarding the award of medals, Miss McKenzie said that is absolutely in the hands of the principal, and so far as sha is coricerned the medals had always been properly awarded. There was a good deal more said about the reports of the chil- dren, the gist of which was that Miss McKenzie believed such matters to be the auty of the teachers, and they should at- tend to the reports without supervision. As some of the Directors are going out of town and as there will be a cross-ex- amination of Miss McKenzie, it was de- cided to adjourn the investigation until July 12 at 10 o'clock, on which date it will be taken up and finished. B T e e B e B o S ot a2 e 0 e S 2 e 2 e e o CUTS ELECTRIC WIRES . OF RIVAL CORPORATION Flank Movement Made by Indepen- dent Light and Power Company Meets Approval. When the Hall of Justice was complet- ed last year it was found necessary by the Board of Public Works to provide power for running the electric elevators. No contract had been let by the Super- visors for electric power, and an arrange- ment was made with the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company to provide this service until July 1, 1901, at the rate of 5 cents per kilowatt hour. It was claimed by the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company at that time that the cost of placing the necessary wires, meters and appurtenances in the Hall of Justice would be in excess of the amount of money which it would receive under the contract. On Saturday last the manager of the electric department of the San Francisco Gas _and_ Electric Company informed the Board of Public Works that the In- dependent Light and Power Company had cut the wires of the former company which provided the power for these ele- vators in the Hall of Justice. The matter was examined into by Light and Water Inspector Tupper, and ter an explanation by the Independent Light and Power Company to the effect that it deemed that the contract which had been awarded it for the lighting of public buildings included the furnishing of power for the same, he decided the act justifia- ble. This statement was considered satisfac- tory by the Board of Public Works. L e e e S e sl of Tulare County for the current year was completed to-day. It shows the num- ber of acres of land assessed to be 1,397, 944; value of improvements, $1.055,000, sain over last year of $50,000; value of ge sonal m-%r‘%, $1,902,700. a gain over last year of ,000; number of horses in the county, 7970; mules, 1910; cattle, 26,547; sheep, 46,060, JAMES COOPER LOSES HIS CASH Masked Robber Relieves Saloon - Keeper of Day’s Receipts. s Thief Demands the Coin at the Point of a Leveled Revolver. RN TR Oakland Office’San Franeisco Call, 1118 Broadway, July 1. A daring hold-up took place ni Emery- ville to-night, when a masked robber se- cured $188 from James Cooper, who keeps a saloon on Peralta street, just over the city iine. Cooper was making arrangements to close nis saloon for the night. He took all of the money out of his till and went to the safe in the back of the store to deposit the collections of the day. While the safe was open Cooper thought he would count his money, and he took out all the safe contained. Just as he got the money out and was counting it he heard some .ne say, “Hand that over.” Cooper looked up and saw a short, thick-set man, dressed in dark clothes and with a gray mask over his face, pointing a pistol directly -at his head. “Not if I know it,”” replied Cooper. ‘When the saloon-keeper said this he heard a voice on the outside say very dis- tinctly, “Plug him if he don't give up.” The pistol was pointed at his head and the man was evidently reinforced by oth- ers on the outside. The odds were too great against him, and Cooper decided that he would take no chances and.al- lowed the man to take the money, $186. As soon as he zot the coin he backed out of the saloon and disappeared in the dark- ness. Emeryville has no regular police force, but the Oakland police were notified. The description of the robber seen is not very clear, and there is no idea of the direction taken by the men with their. booty. LOCAL BREVITIES. INSPECTOR TIPPETT EXONERATED.— A letter was received yesterday by Customs Collector Stratton from the Treasury Depart- ment exonerating Chinese Inspector H. E. Tip- pett from charges of corruption preferred against him some time ago by a Chinaman and a disgruntled attorney in Sacramento. MESSENGER MARTIN'S EXAMINATION. —A. J. Martin, the young messenger accused of having stolen $47 from the safe in the TUnited States Engineer's office in the Flood building, was taken yesterday before United States Commissioner Heacock for identifica- tion. His examination was set for to-morrow at 10:30 a. m. EUGENE STOMBOUGH _ CAPTURED.— United States Marshal John H. Shine went to Santa Rosa yesterday and took into custody Eugene Stombcugh, who has been indicted in Indian Territory with Bill Jones and William Katigan for the murder of Mike Marshall on April 6 of this year. Mr. Shine will take the prisoner to Indian Territory for trial. COUNTERFEITER VOLLARS = HELD.— Harry Vollars, wanted in Skaguay and Juneau for manufacturing counterfeit half-dollar ploces, waived examination yesterday morning before United States Commissioner Heacock and was ordered into the custody of United States Marshal Shine pending the arrival of officers from Alaska to take him thither for trial. SMUGGLED GOODS SEIZED.—One hundred and thirty-four packages of Chinese chow were seized vesterday by order of Acting Customs Surveyor St. John as it was being landed from the stiamer Umatilla. The stuff arrived here two weeks ago on the City of Pueblo from Vancouver and was denied a landing by the Federal quarantine officer. It was shipped back to Vancouver and thence by the Canadian Pacific Railway to Sumas, from which point it was sent to le as domestic preduce. L e Van Geisen’s Slayer Acquitted. AUBURN, July 1—Ed Enos, a half- breed Indian, who shot and klllle’d Lorenzo Van Geisen, a prominent Clipper Gap raarncher. on May 4 last, was found not guilty this morning. The trial has been long and hotly contested. Self-defense was the defendant’s plea. aEAVANT GONE; MONEY MIS3ING Hom King Suddenly Makes Up His Mind to Travel. Mrs. W. J. Dingee Mourns the Loss of $1800 While Thief Sails Chinaward. —_— A Chinese servant in the employ eof Mrs. W. J. Dingee, 821 Sutter street, who was known there only by the name of Cain, disappeared from.the house last Thursday and, it is believed, took with him $1800 in currency belonging to Mrs. Dingee. His unexplained absence Friday and Saturday led to the suspicion that some- thing was wrong, and on going to a bu- reau drawer in her bedroom upstairs Mrs. Dingee discovered that the $1300 in cur- rency which she had placed there Thurs- day had disappeared. It occurred to her that the Chinese servant had seen her counting the money before placing it = the bureau drawer and she felt convinced that he was the thief. The discovery was made Saturday afternoon and she at once nctified Captain Seymour. Detectives McMahon and Ed Gibson were detailed on the case and after dili- gent inquiry they learned yesterday morn- ing that the Chinese, whose real name is Hom King, had sailed on the steamship Chira for China on Saturday afternoon at 1 o’cleck. He dashed on board about a minute before the steamship left the wharf. He was observed by soms mem- bers of the Chinese Six Companies who were watching the passengers to see that no Chinese debtor sailed without 3 his debts. As Hom King was a debtor, they raised an outcry and attempted to have him detained, but he mixed among the other Chinese on board and the vessel could not be delaved. It was not till three hours after the vessel had sailed that the loss of the money was discovered. The facts were reported to Mrs. Dingee yvesterday, and it will rest with her as to whether a ca- blegram will be sent to China asking that Hom King be arrested on the arrival of the steamship and sent back here. Actress Refuses to Pay. Cleo Roberts, an actress, 13 years old, a recent arrival from Denver, was arrest- ed last evening and taken to the City Prison, where one charge of “drunk™ and another of defrauding a hackman was placed against her. The woman claims to have been the victim of sharp practice, while others assert that she attempted to hold high revel without Dlyi:g for it. A woman companion who started out when the festivities commenced cannot be found, but it is said that she is known to the hackman who made the complaint. —_—ee———— Woman Attacked With Razor. Miss Antonia Cassas, Hinckley alley, secured a warrant from Judge Mogan vesterday for the arrest of Theodore Sarabia on the charge of assault with a deadly weapon. She alleged that without any cause Sarabia attacked her with a razor Sunday night and made several slashes at her, but only succeeded in cut- ting her dress. Her screams attracted the attention of some neighbors and they ran to her assistance, when Sarabia fled. — e LATE SHIPPING INTHLLIGENCE. ARRIVED.
