The San Franciscans who are interested in the matter hope to be able to show the East- ern magnates how to reach the city by the most advantageous route’ when once Gould and his assoclates learn that in self-defense they must have an outlet to the chief seaport of the Pacific Coast. Poniatowskl contends that the next transcontinental line that comes into San Francisco must come by the San Mateo route. He believes that the most prac- ticable route is to be found by avoiding the Ocean View grades and expensive cut by striking oceanward and proceeding via the Lake Merced region and the Spring Valley, Water Works. Entrance to the center of population and business can be secured, the Prince maintains, by tunnel- ing through the hills adjacent to the Twin eaks. ‘With this plan in mind Poniatowski and his assoclates commissioned the real es- tate firm to secure options for a tract suitable for a gauenxer depot in the midst of the thic 1&; populated districts. The attempt was first made at Church and Market streets, but much difficulty was met. Some of the holders lived in the East, and the unusual effort to get four months’ options caused some to place prices beyond all reason on their prop- erty. Attentlon was then turned to a tract at Eleventh and Market streets, op- posite Van Ness avenue. Here obstacles of the same nature were met. The agents then approached holders of property in the block bounded by Valencia, E‘.’lgln Park, Thirteenth and Hermann streets. Four months' options were secured from a number of holders, $50 to $1%0 being pald for options, varying with the size and value of the holdings. Asking prices leaped upward some per cent and the agents again found themselves unable to secure a sultable tract at figures within reason, and they so reported to Ponia- towskl, The Burlingame promoter expects to en- tertain George Gould in San Francisco in the near future, and If Gould arrives events of the greatest importance to San Francisco are to be expected. If the Cen- tral Pacific does not offer acceptable terms for traffic arrangements westward from Balt Lake it {s predicted that Gould will rush through a coast extension of the Denver and Rlo Grande, with San F?nfllco in view as the ultimate ter- minus. Talbot Stock Farm Sale. OAKLAND, March 29.—R. B.

According to the declarations of Mrs. J. W. Bunce of 1373 Sacramento street, San Francisco, Mrs. Susie Hudson, the | aged woman who was found dead in bed yesterday, was not a widow, but leaves a husband, Robert N. Hudson, whose resi- dence is in New York. Mrs. Bunce says she is Mr. Hudson's sister. If her asser- tions are true, Mrs. Hudson lived a dual life in this city. Some months ago George A. Anderson, a retired San Francisco police officer, died at the Hudson cottage at the West End. Neighbors arfl those who knew Mrs. Hudson well believed that through his death she became a widow, and the widow allowed this impression to prevail. Mrs. Bunce denies that Mrs. Hudson was divorced from Robert N. Hudson and, al- though separated from him for many years, she affirms he contributed to de- cedent’s support. Hudson is reputed to be well-to-do. Mrs. Bunce states that Hud- son wrote to her two weeks ago that he ‘was coming to California, but asserts she has not heard from him since. Among Mrs. Hudson's effects were two bank books. One was in the name of An- derson and Mrs. Hudson jointly. The other was In Mrs. Hudson's name. It shows a deposit of $112 40 still in bank. Mrs. Bunce wanted to assume charge | of the estate of her dead sister-in-law, but Deputy Coroner James Fowler re- ferred her to the Public Administrator. An autopsy disclosed that Mrs. Hudson dled from natural causes. There will be an inquest Monday afternoon. Feather Thief Eludes Pursuer.

He was ascending a lad- der attached to the side of the house, when one of the rungs broke and he was precipitated to the ground.

ANOTHER VICTIM AT SHELL MOUND Benicia Man Is Fatally Injured by a Berke- ley Train. OAKLAND, March 29.—Michael Burke, a shoemaker residing at Benicia, was struck to-night By a Berkeley local train near Shell Mound station, sustaining probably fatal injuties. Burke was found at 8 o'clock between the track and a fence by Southern Pacific Brakeman Matt McKiernan, who noticed the man's un- conscious form. He was removed to the receiving Hospital, where the surgeon’s cxamination aisclosed his serious condi- tion. Besides a probable fracture of the skull at the base of the brain, Burke had four ribs broken and suffered numerous minor bruises and cuts, and also internal injuries of a serious character. None of the raliroad men knew how the accident cecurred. Burke had been visiting a family named McGlinchy, living at Snell Mound. The position of the body when it was found indicated that he must have been struck by a Berkeley local train, as he was lying near the tracks on the Berkeley side of the station.
