4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNERDAY, JANUARY 22, 1902. CHILD IS STOLEN BY HER FATHER |PoL WHILE ON HER WAY TO SCHOOL Julius Arguello Forcibly Carries Off Daughtér and Divorced Wife Wants Him Arrested. By ARGUELL S 2 S5 l | | | i tective Coleman was detailed to locate the child and arrest Arguello. It appears that Arguello, who is a mem- ber of the well-known San Jose family of that name, married the mother of the child ten years ago. In 1900 the wife se- cured & divorce and was awarded the cus- tody of the child. Arguello has always tried to see Claire, but the child had no love for him. For the last week he hovered in the vicinity of the school at- tended by the little girl and tried to in- duce her to go with him. Fafling in this he waited for her yesterday morning. He was accompanied by a woman and when Claire passed the pair Arguello grabbed her and the woman snatched her books. Late yesterday afternoon Arguello tele- phoned to the home of his former wife, but she was absent. He then told her EoA LITTLE GIRL WHO WAS ABDU( MORNING AND HER PARE! | MQTHER BEING AWARDED T " e BN DA ED BY HER FATHER WHILE ON WHO!

A Most Remarkable Remedy That Quickly Restores Lost Vigor to Men., . A Free Trial Package Sent by Mail to All Who Write. Free trial packages of a most remark- able remedy are beirg matled to all who will write to the St#te Medical Institute. They cured so many men who had battled for years against the mental and physical suffering of lost manhood that the Insti- tute has decided to distribute free trial packages to all who write. It is a home treatment, and all men who suffer from any form of sexual weakness resulting from youthful folly, premature loss of strength and memory, weak back, varico- cele or emaciation of parts can now cure themselves at home. The remedy has a peculiarly grateful effect of warmth and seems to act direct to the desired location, and development just where it is needed. 1t cures all the ills and troubles that come from years of misuse of the natural func- tions and has been an absolute success in all cases. A r%efl to the State Medical Institute, 328 Elektron building, Fort Wayne, Ind., stating that you desire one of their free trial packages, will be com- plied with promptly. The Institute is de- sirous of reaching that great class of men who are unable to leave home to be treated, and the free samples will enable them to see how easy it is to be cured of sexual weakness when the proper reme- dies are employed. The Institute makes no restrictions. Any man who writes will be sent a frée sample, carefully sealed in & plain package, so that its ipient need Pi:l‘t; no fdur of embcn-ut-:aent or pub- . Readers are request to write without delay. making | giving strength | the early morning tragedy indicate be- yond a shadow of a doubt that the four desperados were engaged in holding up a Japanese on Valencla street near Eight- eenth when Officer .Robinson surprised m at their nefarious work, as exclu- sively announced in yesterday’s issue of The ‘Call. e four footpads had been hovering abdit the neighborhood for an hour or more before the shooting oc- curred. They attempted to hold up At- torney Stephen Costello at the corner of Eighteenth and Valencla streets, but the latter was too quick for them. As Cos- tello was nearing his home, whicn is at | 726 Valencia street, he passed three of the footpads. When he got a few steps ahead of them one of the men called out, “Here, hold on a minute!” . “Not much,” replied Costello, suspect- ing at once that they wanted to relieve him of his money and jewelry. The at- -torney quickened his pace toward his home, a few steps away, and the footpads made no attempt to follow him. As the lawyer entered his doorway he heard several loud screams, and turning around he saw G. R. Akiyo, a Japanese lving at 719 Valencia street, running away from the same men who tried to | hold him up. The footpads put a revolver up to Akiyo's head and ordered him to throw up his bands. Frenzied with fright the Jap yelled frantically for help, and made a mad dash toward his home. At this juncture Policeman Robinson, who was standing on the corner of Nine- teenth and Valencia, came running down the street at a fast clip. He was one of the best sprinters in the department and he arrived at the scene of the attempted hold-up before the footpads could make their escape. Saw Robinson Coming. The thieves must have got a glimpse of Robinson’s_star, and fearing arrest they turned and ran down Valencia street toward Sixteenth. The brave liceman pursued the criminals and gained on them S0 quickly that by the time they got to the middle of the block on Valencia street, between Sixteenth and Seventeenth, he was almost at their heels. in front of Kenney's bicycle store at 531 Valencia street and Rogerson's shirt fac- tory at 53 Valencia, the footpads made a stand. They could not outsprint Robin- son, £o they turned quickly and began fir- ing’at_the policeman. One of the first shots knocked Robinson down and the tl:\exis stood over his bleeding body and fi several more bullets into his pros- V" trate form. Tt was a cruel deed. Vainly did Robin- £on try to drop one of his me}rclless I:l’xrl!- derers. The bullet holes in the walls and windows of the bicycle store and Roger- z(énfi_sh:tn‘rvrhgi-ctgry are high, showing that m%!;‘l. e he was lying on the pave- e rapid succession of sharj T and the dving policeman rang out loudly in the stiliness of the night. Windows were thrown uj the neighboring houses an absolute terror Sixteenth street d: hastily in all for a moment reigned. Down toward ashed the four murder- ers, leaving their mortally wounded vic- tim wallowing in his own blood. Is Game to the End. Vincent Bogdon, a resta; 507 Valencia street, he-rdufilgt;eoe:gu;rfi ran out of his eating house to see what the trouble was. ile had no sooner reached the door than three men dashed past. They all had their still smoking re- volvers in their hands. Bogdon looked up the street a few yards and saw Policeman Robinson making a weak effort to get to His hands clutched a hitching post and his body, only a few feet off the ground, swung feebly back and forth. It Wwas a hoveless struggle of a game man. 40, continue the pursuit of his murderers It's me, it's Robinson,” called out the policeman; weakly. “Come and help mo Vincent. They'vé dorie me.” ’ e thugs heard Robinson’s last cal help. - With the cruel instinct of lnlll:‘;; villains one of the men turned around and leveling a revolver at the restaurant keeper’s head, ordered him back into the place. He went without further delay and the murderers ran on toward the corner, a few feet distant. There they en- countered August Mebels, a walter = em. ploved at Zinkand's. Mebels heard the shooting and ran out of Harry Bentham's saloon on Valencia street, ~just below !s‘ilgt::mhi H‘; crosseid diagonally across reet and ran directl: - lngwm%;'de‘x‘iers. y into the flee. “We' ve you some of this, % growled one of them as he -hy\l :Wr'e« volver under Mebels' nose. Mebels baciced away and the thugs ran down Sixteentn street toward Jullan avenue. Taylor’s Brave Deed. Policeman Charles H. Taylor was - ing at the corner of Sixteantn and. B sion streets when he heard the fatal shots. He ran o‘g toward Valencia, and upon nearing Hoff avenue saw three men swinging into Julian avenue. They ran at' a rapid gait down the avenue toward Fifteenth street. Taylor saw their re-: ICE BOARD TAKES ACTION Adjourns Out of Respect ‘to the Memory of Robinson. ‘When the Board of Police Commission- ers went into session last evening Chief of Police Wittman informed the board of the death of Patrolman Robinson. The Chief spoke feelingly of the deceased. He said Robinson had always proved a capa- ble officer and that hie untimely death ¥as a severe 10ss to the department. The Chief dwelt on Robinson’s heroism. He told how the brave policeman gave battle to the footpads and how he was slain by one of the criminals. The Chief also called the board's atten- tlon to the fact that there was a pro- vision in the charter which allowed the Commissloners, sitting as a pension board, the right to grant a pension to the wife or parent of an officer who had lost his life fn the discharge of his duty. As Robinson leaves a mother, half his salary will be paid to her monthly. Commissioner Hutton moved that when the board adjourn it do so out of re- spect to the memory of Policeman Robin- ton and that the members of the board attend his funeral in a body. The motion was adopted unanimously. yolvers glisten when they passed a_gas- light and he called on them to halt. *I am a police officer,” shouted Taylor. Taylor's command to halt was greeted with several shots from the murderers. They wheeled to fire at the policeman, several shots being discharged at kim. Taylor never flinched under the fire, He quickly dropped on one knee and, drawing his revolver, returned the five. Taylor shot three times at Robinson's murderers and then jumpéd to his feet and continued the chase. They ran down Julian avenue oh the lower side of the street, Taylor following them. At the corner of Fifteenth street and Julian avenue the trio separated. Two of the men ran up Fifteenth toward Valen- cia, and the other stood at the corner on the lower side of the street, waiting to ambush Taylor as he ran by. The police- man was not to be tricked by the foot- pad’s cunning. He dashed across to the other side of the street and taking aim at the thug who was waiting in tha shadows to shoot him down, fired, and the waiting. man staggered headlong to the sidewalk. Policeman Taylor was upon the pros- trate highwayman in a momegt and pinned him fo the ground. TayI8r djs- armed his man and walked him toward the Seventeenth-street station. On, the way to the station Taylor met Lieutenant Price, who was going to, the scene of the first shooting, and turned the wounded prisoner over to him. Carried Safe-Cracking Tools. ‘When searched at the City and County Hospital a full set of safe-cracking toois was found concealed on the captive's person. 1In his overcoat pocket the police found a bottle of powder, two candles, a brace and bit, matches and a steel tape measure. The footpad's weapon was a 33-caliber bulldog of the cheapest make. In addition to the .safe-cracking tools there were in his pockets several cata- logues issued by different hardware firms who deal in steel saws and other imple- 'ments used in the safe-cracking business. The prisoner said his name was William A. Henderson and that his home was in St. Loufs. He said he came here recent- ly from Seattle and had found the toois that were in his possession on the street. He pretended to be very much under the ‘influence of liquor and stated that when he stooped down to pick up the things | he claimed to have found he was shot j from behind. He also stated that his partner's name was Willlams and that they had been around various Famons in the Mission drinking all night. 'No state- i ment made by the man who calls himself { Henderson is believed by the’police. He acted like an old offender and showed no disposition to give up any information concerning his part in the murder. Robinson Too Weak to Talk. While Policeman Taylor was having his exciting thase after the three: footpads who ran down Julian-avenue tender hands were lifting the bleeding form of Police- man Robinson across Valencia street to Eastman’'s - plumbing shop, ‘where the wounded man was attended by Drs. Sul- livan and Crowley. The ambulance was telephoned for by Policeman Tim Connell and when it arrived Robinson was taken at once to the Railroad Hospital, where Dr. Gardner made heroic efforts to save his life. Robinson began to sink rapidiy. He- could scarcely talk at times and then again he would rally and answer questions put to him by his companions in the police department, who were-bent on find- ing some clew to Robinson’s murderers. Detectives Jerry Dinan and Richard Beil were on night duty at the Hall of Justice when the fatal shooting occurred. They were notified immediately and, together with Warrant and Bond Clerk John J. Greeley, went immediately to the bedside of the dying policeman. The detectives saw at once that it would be useless to attempt to get Robinson to make a_writ- ten dying statement. He was already too far over the border. Detective Dinan and Greeley asked the dying man questions and he answered them laboriously. “I can’t talk, ‘boys,” said Robinsen feebly. In answer to questions Robinson told the ‘detectives that he found the footpads trying to hold up a man on Valencia and Eighteenth streets. He was positive there were four men in the party. The nurses and physicians worked over the rapidly sinking policeman in a vain effort to revive him ‘sufficiently so he could make a statement. Prisoner Gives Evasive Answer. After leaving the dying policeman De- tectives Dinan and Bell and Warrant and Bond Clerk Greeley went direct to the City and County Hospital, where they had a long interview with the wounded foot- pad, Henderson was sullen and pretended to be in great pain. He disclaimed all knowledge of the battle with the two policemen and refused to say anything about himself. He even said that he did not know where he lived. It was some- where on Fifth street, near the Mint, but the exact location he did not know, so he said. He said he roomed in No. 21, on the second floor of the lodging-house, but he would not give the street number of the place. The officers then went to the Seven- teenth-street statfon, where they closely inspected every article found on Hender- son. They fouhd several cards upon which were written local addresses, and for a time it looked as if the officers had a clew to the prisoner's identity. On one card the name, Mrs. Lauriate, 312B Turk street, was written. The woman proved to be the wife of a transport officer. She could not shed any light on_the mystery of Henderson's identity. She did not know him and could not imagine any pos- sible way in which the footpad could have found out her address. On another card found in Henderson's pockets the name, Gus Miller, 1084 Sutter street, ap- peared. - This also proved to be a false scent. On a receipt for a registered let- ter sent to George Moore alias Mason, now confined in the Stockton jail on a charge of robbery, the name F. Daly, 219 Stockton street, appeared. This address was a fake to prevent detection in case the Stockton authorities intercepted the letter. There is no such number as 219 Stocktop street, and the place where it should be is a public park. The card of a nearby Stockton-street saloon was also found on Henderson. These clews tend to show that the prisoner was famiMar with that neighborhood. It was learned last night that Mrs. Lauriate worked in a Stockton-street candy store up to a week ago. A permit issued by Sherift Lackmann for John Gilley to visit R. Galley, now confined in the County Jail on a charge of robbery, was also found among Henderson’s papers. The address given in this paper was also a fake, Policeman Robinson was one of the most popular and efiicient officers in the department. He was a Free Mason and had taken the third degree in the orde:r only a short time ago. He was an un- married man, but ge leaves an aged mother, of whom he was the sole sup- por' At the autopsy held upon Robinson's remains last night it was found that the bullet which caused the brave officer's death entered his stomach about one inch to the right of the navel and ranging up- ward, downward and backward, pene trated the intestines and I in the muscles of his back. A second bullet en- red the stomach four inches to the ter right of the navel and passing downward came out four inches belo: the point where it had entered.

Stover's horse was one of five starters in the fourth race, & six furlong sprint, the con- ditions stating ‘“for non-winners at the meeting; weight 105 pounds.” What a soft and reposeful spot it looked, and these were the entries: Joe Frey, All Green, Kenilworth, Paul Clifford, 'Rey Dare and The Fretter. With his usual forethought = Johnny Schorr missed the train leaving Ingleside and Joe Frey did not appear as a starter. Keniiworth, just about tuned to concert pitch with two previous races, was played from evens to 3 to 5, and reeling off the first half in 48% seconds, finished the distance out in 1:14, a length before Paul Clifford, which ran a becoming race first time -at the barrier, nicély ridden by Gannon. All Green did not appear to be ready, finish- Ing fousth hehind Thoirrettar. ‘avorites managed to hold their own despite the uncertain conditions of the elements, capturing three events. Jack- son and O’Connor were again the stars in the saddle. Green Morris' useful “‘mudder,” Duckoy, ‘was again unlucky enough to be nosed out for a purse, this time in the Paso Robles handicap by Scerpio, a 10 to 1 shot. At the Futurity course distance Lee Jackson hustled Scorplo away in the lead and racing Tower of Candles to a standstill kept the outsider on his mud legs long enough to beat O'Connor on the fast-com- ing favorite, just about half a pro- gramme's ledgth. Frank Bell ran third. A fast bunch of “mudlarks” lined up in the introductory five and a half fur- long scramble, with Tiburon the post favorite at 8 to 5. The Friar Tuck geld- ing displayed some of his oldtime speed | to the stretch, and then died away. Red- fern assumed the lead with Eldred, an § té 1 shot, n_ straightened for home, and led to hin yards of the wire, where O’Connor got up on Censor, earning the decision by a nose. The win- ner was 12 to 1 in the betting.. Another long shot turned up winner of the sprint which -folowed. It looked a good_thing on paper for Royal Rogue, and the Nealon entry was heavily playved at 8 to 5. Malaspina, a 10 to 1 chance, piloted by Jackson, led throughout, and at the wire. beat the favorite a length with something to spare. Arthur Ray ran a close third. % Burns' & Waterhouse took the third purse with Dangerous Maid. The mare closed about equal favorite with Sea Lion, and, after jeading most of the route, downed Dunbiane a head in a driving fin- ish. Mission, a 30 to 1 t, ran into the show. Sea Lion has very rickety under- pinning and performed poorly. Floronso enjoyed another cake-walk in the concluding mile and fifty yards selling run, ridden by O’Connor. Hungarian, a 2 to 1 shot, with Troxier up, nosed out Sir Lewis for the place. Track Notes. Just as predicted earlier in the day, Floronso was bid up after his win of the last race. The gelding was in to be sold for $i00 and Frank Doss tilted the price to $%00 without any change of ownership. There has been any number of close finishes the past few davs at Oakland. It seldom falls to the lot of a horse to lose a purse by a nose two days in succession, but such happened Duckoy. On Monday he was 1iGden by Redfern, while yester- day O'Connor had the mount. Lee Jackson again piloted three and O’'Connor two winners. Bullman, if he s0 wished, could be in the front rank, but vnless he takes better care of himself will scon be a back number. The Lissak handicap for two-year-olds and upward will be run at Oakland on Saturday. The stake is worth $1500 and the distance cne mile. The allotment of weights follows: Nones .. All Green.

CLOSELY TRAILED BY THE OFFICERS éuspected Robbers Seen| in Town and in the OQutskirts. i Detectives Fitzgerald and Graham, who | have been following up the course of the | fugitive highwaymen, traced their move- | ments to-day up to the time they reached | a saloon at the corner of Eleventh and Mirket streets. Two men, closely resem- bling those described by Mebels, went into the 'saloon, called for.a glass of beer, lafd down a dollar on the counter and, | without waiting for change, ran off. i Ttey acted very suspiciously and turned ! vestward on Market street, in the direc- | tion of Valenecia. From there all trace of them was lost | urtil last_evening, when two men wete seen at Florentini's place, near the old San Bruno road. They claimed to be ex- soldiers in search of work. The two men fitted the description of the men recog- nized by Mebels, also by the bartender at Eleventh and Market streets and by Flor- | entini. When Fitzgerald and Graham | reached Florentini's the men had fled and the trail was temporarily lost. Both Fitz- gerald and Graham_are positive that the men who were at Florentini's yesterday afternoon are the two whom the police are locking for. The San Mateo County offi- cers have been notitied to look out for them and have been furnished with as complete a description as possible. Detective Graham showed Henderson, the wounded man, a copy of iue Call of yesterday containing an account of the orime. He would not discuss the matter. LOSES HIS LIFE DURING AFFRAY Adolph Albersmeyer Is the Victim of Too Much Curiosity. Adolph Albersmeyer, a bartender in the | employ of his cousin, J. D. Heise, gracer, at the corner of Sixteenth and Valen- cia streets, met his death in a pe- culiar manner, as the result of the shoot. ing of Police Officer Robinson. Albers- meyer was employed as a clerk by Heice and left his place of business about 19 o'clock at night. He went to his room at 192 Julian avenue and was awakened by the shots. - He partly dressed himself when he hcard the shots. E. P. Langabaugh, the' owner of the house. also dressed himself I'and both men climbed through the win- dow of Albersmeyer's room. The barten- | i der was in his stocking feet and climbed | upon the awning. The awning was wet | and Albersmeyer slipped. Longabaugh | attempted to catch him, but could not. | ‘When Albersmeyer reached the end of | the awning he -endeavored to stop him- self, but could not. He alighted on the sidewalk, but arose unagsisted. He stood around for a few minutés and then com- | tlained that he was feeling sick. He went | upstairs, dressed himself fully and sud- denly collapsed. An ambulance was called and t | ured man was sent to the City and| ‘ounty Hospital, where he died as he ! was being put upon the operating table. He was 36 years of age andja native of | Bremen, Germany. He had resided in this city about twelve years, being the greater portion of the time in the employ of Heise. His brother died about a year #go from an attack of pneumonia. He leaves an aged mother in Germany. SLOW COMING OF AMBULANCE he in- | Telephone Company's De- | sire for Nickel Delays. Had it not been for the heartless greed | of the telephone company for the nicke! | that it demands for a switch, Robinson, | the wounded policeman, might have | reached a hospital sooner than he did. | Police Officer R. J. Ingham lives in the | flat immediately above the scene of the| shooting. He was asleep at the time, but was awakened by the sound of shots. Ingham says: I got up, partly dressed myself and went to my window. I saw a man lylng on the side- walk with his arms thrown back. The light was urcertain, but I thought I saw a star on his breast. I rushed downstairs and saw Robinson lying by the hitching post in fromt of Kenney's place. 1 saw that he was wound- ed and ran upstairs to my telephone. ‘Give me Private Exchange 179,” I sald “There is a wounded police officer on the side- walk and I want an ambulance quick.” It was a long time afterward before I got an answer and then came a drawn-out, “Niek se. T got mad afi told the young woman the smallest change I had was a dollar, but the answer came back, ‘'Nickel, please.” I told the yourg woman what I thought of the tele- | ‘phone company &nd 1 ran to the patrol box at ixteenth street and called for an ambulance. | It was fully three-quarters of an hour from | the time I first tried to telephone before either the ambulance or patrol wagon came along. In the, meanwhile, Robinson was picked up off the street and carried into Eastman's plumb- | ing shop, from which he was taken to the hos- 5 soon as the ambulance arrived.
