The dread suramons of death came to Samuel Sternheim, the well-known crock- ery merchant, with the suddenness of a flash of lightning at 1:15 o’clock yesterday afternoon in the vestibule of the Temple Emanu-El, on Sutter strcet. Mr. Stern- heim was accompanied by his wife, daughter and son, their intention being to attend the memorial service in memory of the dead President. The party had reached the vestibule and were standing beneath the sable hangings there when Mr. Sternheim placed his hand to his breast, gasped. feebly and fell to the floor. He was picked up and taken to the ves- try-room below, where he died in a few moments. Although 62 years of age, Mr. Sternheim had not until recently complained of ill health. He had shown no symptoms of heart disease, which was the cause of death, and his sudden demise came as a blow to his family and friends. He was in the best of spirits when he left his home at 1728 Bush street, and conversed freely with his family on their way to the temple. The death was at once reported to the Coroner, who afte- an investiga- tion decided that the remains might be sent to the family home without delay. The news of the demise was withheld from those who attended the memorial service, and there were few who knew that while the service was in progress Mr. Sternheim lay cold In death in the vestry-room beneath. The deceased was a natlve of Heinstadt, Germany, where he was born on October 10, 1839. ‘He came to this country when quite young, and early in the '60's arrived in San Francisco. In 1863 he engaged in the crockery business with Mr. Wangen- helm under the firm name of Wangen- heim, Sternheim & Co. On the death of Mr. Wangenheim, in 1889, the firm name was changed to Sternheim & Son. On July 4, 1872, Mr. Sternheim espoused Miss Rosle Fox at Laporte, Ind.. and the fruit of the union were a son, Benjamin F., and daughter, Blanche. The deceased was enabled by close attention to his business to amass a considerable fortune. Mr. Sternheim was a member of Pacific Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons. He was Identified with many charitable or- ganizations, including the Pacific Hebrew Orphan Asylum, Eureka Benevolent So- clety and others, Arrangements for the interment are in progress. @ il @ | HARRY CULLINAN 1S SUSPECTED Jeweler Thought.to Be Member of Anarch- ist Band. | Secret Service Agent Hazen has in the past few days kept a close watch on a| man known as Harry Cullinan, who is suspected of being an anarchist, and who is thought to be implicated in the plot | that led to the assassination of President | McKinley. Yesterday Secret Service Agent Hazen | and a number of his deputies were busily engaged in scouring the city for evidence | against Cullinan, and it was learned that | Hazen had made a search of Cuillnan’s | room and found implicating documents, | the nature of which Hazen refused last | night to reveal. Shortiy before midnight it was reported that Cullinan had been arrested by the secret service men, but no. trace of him could be found at the County Jail or at the City Prison. Hazen stated at midnight that he had not arrested Cullinan, but that a close watch was being kept upon him and that he could be found when wanted. Hazen declined to state the nature of the papers he had seized, and when asked if Culli- nan was suspected of being an accomplice of the President's murderer he replied that he was still looking for evidence in | the matter. Cullinan is said to be a jew- | eler, and was recently In business on Post | or Polk street. It is expected that he will be placed under arrest to-day. Startling developments are looked for. —_—————— Retail Merchants to Meet.

SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich., Sept. 19.— News of the probable loss of the West- ern Translt steamer Hudson, with a crew of twenty-five men, on Lake Superior last Monday was brought by the steamer Nic- ol, which arrived here from Duluth early to-day. According to the report of Cap- tain McLean of the Nicol, the Hudson left Duluth for Buffalo some time after the Nicol and passed that steamer Sunday night. Monday morning the Nicol came | up to the Hudson again, about eight miles west of Eagle River. The Hudson was in & bad way, with decks awash, in a furious gale and pumps hard working. Captain | McLean sald he had all he could do to | save his own vessel and could not render assistance. When he arrived in port he supposed the steamer Gilchrist had res- cued the Hudson's crew. When he heard such was not the case, he said_there was no possible hope for the foundered ship. The Hudson was valued at $200,000 and carried a full cargo of flour, grain and east-bound merchandise, worth $100,000. S e s Many Lives Lost by an Explosion.

GZAR WATCHES MINIG BATTLE French Troops Maneuver on the Plain Around Fort Vitry. el Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 1118 Broadway, Sept. 19. Two workingmen whose homes were in | Alameda County died to-day as the re-| sult of injuries inflicted upon them by | strikers, according to the stories as to the manner of their deaths told by their relatives to Coroner Mehrraann. One of the victims of violence is Frank Mec-| Guire, who lived with his relatives at 434 | Forty-fifth street, Oakland, and the other is Remus Matheson, the only support of | his mother, living at 914 Central avenue, | Alameda. Both men died from injuries of | the head. | The story told by McGuirs to his broth- er-in-law, Joseph Cummings, and his sis- ter, with whom he lived, wes to the effect that he arrived about ten days ago on| the sailing ship Fresno from Alaska, hav- | ing been in the employ of the Alaska Commercial Company. He was a boiler- | maker, but had been forced to ship on ac- | count of the lack of work. He knew | nothing about the strike situation in San | Francisco and was not in any way antag- onistic to the unions. The moment he stepped off the ship after she had docked at the San Francisco wharves, McGuire told his people, he was attacked by a crowd of unknown men. They set upon him and struck him on | wooden bars and after beating him into | insensibility made off. The victim of the | assault lay in an unconsicous condition | until found by friends, who took him to | the Emergency Hospital on the city | front. 3 After being in the hospital for several days McGuire was removed to his home in this city, where he was treated by Drs. Rowell and Dukes. They found him to be suffering from severe body bruises and concussion of the brain. He did not im- | prove under their ministration, however, | and died at an early hour this morning. | McGuire was 49 years old and unmarried. | Matheson was a coachman and had been | driving ‘a truck in San Francisco during the strike. He quit work dne day last | week because, so he told his aged mother, | who speaks in a broken tongue, he had | been threatened by the strikers and feared | for his life. He .did not go to San Fran- sco again until last Saturday, when he had to_go to attend to some personal mat- | ters. While on East street he walked Into | a saloon to get a drink, where he was recognized as a non-union workman by a striker. The striker called others to his assist- ance and together they set upon and beat Matheson until he was almost insensible. Matheson managed to make his way to his home in Alameda, where Dr. H. M. Pond was called in to attend him. The | physician found him to be suffering from | brain concussion and severe bruises and treated him for them. His patient could not recover from the shock and died this morning. He was 42 years of age and un- | married. | As both cases were reported late to-| night the Coroner did not set any time for the inqguests. When they are held Cor- oner Mehrmann says he will conduct a thorough examination into the causes which led to the death of the men. RIOTING ON THIRD STREET. Sergeant Conboy Rescues Special Of- ficer From Strikers. W. F. McAllister, a special police offi- cer, was set upon by a gang of men at Third and Stevenson streets last night and but for the timely assistance of Ser- geant Conboy, who witnessed the assault, would have been severely beaten. M Allister claims that he had been watched and followed for some time. Last night as he came out of a Third-street restau- rant he was attacked by a striker named Richard Oliver. In an instant he was sur- rounded by other strikers, who com- menced to beat him. Sergeant Conboy made his appearance at th's time and by the use of his club managed to save Mc- Allister from further injury. As the ser- geant was trying to get his man to a place of safety the crowd kept closing in, trying to administer further punishment to the special. C. H. Carrington, a re- cently appointed special cfficer, worked his way into the crowd and kept the lead- ers from doing further damage. Finally the mob became so great that Carrington was compelled to draw his weapon for his own protection. Durirg the trouble Carrington fired a shot, but evidently without hitting any one. Sergeant Conboy arrested Oliver, who made the first assault on McAllister, and charged him at the City Hall Station with battery. McAllister was treated at the Emergency Hospital for slight bruises. e ee——— POLICEMAN IN QUELLING A ROW IS BADLY BEATEN | Policeman Daniel .

He hearc a shot in the saloon and went in to investigate. A free fight was in progress, but when the of- ficer entered the participants directed their assaults toward him.

During the struggle, however, Owens was roughly treated. Some one In the COMPIEGNE, Sept. 19. — Emperor Nicholas passed a day full of interest.
