NEW YORK, July 17.—The officlal in- | quiry into the circumstances surround- ing the death of Albert C. Lattimer of Brooklyn, who is supposed to have peen shot by a burglar early in the morning of July 2, was begun to-day in Brook- lyn, and late in the afternoon the hear- ing went over until Monday. Mrs. Sadie Lattimer, widow of the murdered man, was a witness to-day. Her story of the shooting developed nothing new. She declared that her hus- band was shot by a burglar. District Attorney Clark asked Mrs. Lattimer if she had ever been in the com- pany of W. H. Tuthill, a traveling up- holstery salesman, outside of her home. She replied that she met Tuthill on one occasion in New York; that he accom- panied her to her home, and that she told her husband about it. In reply to other questions asked by the District Attorney, she sald she had never enter- tained a Mr. Elwell, whose home 15 in | the rear of the Lattimer house, in the { absence of her husband. C. R. Rich, who lives near the Lat- thners, said that when he went to_ihe house on the night of the shooting Mrs. Lattimer introduced him to Tuthill. Lat- timer was placed on the bed, Tuthill helping in the work, and then, according to the witness, Tuthili said to Mrs. Lat- timer: “Don’t worry; he is all right.” | “Dr. Meagher, house surgeon at tho hos- pital where Lattimer died, created a sen- sation when he sald on the stand that the dying man exclaimed as he lay -in bed on tne third day: “The coward shot me in bed.” Miss Christine Russell, a nurse, testl- fied that Lattimer said: “A coward shot me in cold blood.” Once, when Lattimer’s | brother spoke about the search for the | burglar, the wounded man said: ‘“No | burglar’ ever hot me.” | Mary L. Cauhman, another nurse, sald | she heard Lattimer say he knew the | man who shot him, and would tell his | name when he got well. | Miss Fannie Lattimer, a sister, swore | that on one occasion she had seen Mrs, | Lattimer and Tuthill meet on a street corner, and had telegraphed this fact to | Lattimer.. She said that when her broth- er reached home he found Tuthill there. There were words between the two men, |and th,>n a lengthy correspondence, which M.dually ceased. Police ‘Captain Reynolds testified that after a minute examination of the doors, { windows and shutters of the Lattimer | house he could not find the slightest evi- | dence of a forced entrance. | ALLEGED WIFE MURDERER | IS LYNCHED BY A MOB | Masked Men Take Him From Jail and | Hang Him on the City | Scales. | OWENSBORO, Ky., July 17.—John An- | derson, a farmer, who was in jail here, charged with the murder of his wife on | the night of July 8, was taken from prison by a masked mob of about forty men and hanged to a beam over the city scales on one of the principal streets of | Owensboro at 2:30 o'clock this morning. | The lynchers, who are supposed to have | come from the scene of Anderson’s alleged crime, about three miles west of Owens- Loro. made their entrance into the city | quietly and going to the jail demanded | acmittance, which was refused. They then battered down the prison door and while some went to the prisoner’s cell to |lead him out, others of the mob sur- rounded the jailer and his family to pre- rent them giving the alarm. Anderson was soon secured and in a few moments | was led across the street from the prison, | where a rope was placed about his neck {and he was hanged to a beam over a pait of scales. The mob then dispersed quietly. No arrests have been made. | ~Anderson was the first white man ever | lynched in Daviess County. At the time | the murder with which he was charged | was commitfed, Anderson and his wife had been separated for about seven weeks |and Mrs., Anderson was living at her father's house, whither Anderson went for the alleged purpose of effecting a reconciliation. The woman's father, it is i, entered some objection and the irate and then dragged his wife into the | yard and shot her to death. He was ar- rested shortly after the crime and was in the Owensboro jail when he was lynched. JUMPS FROM THE CLIFF TO ESCAPE PURSUERS Man Suspected of Attempted Fraud Makes Remarkable Escape in Washington. PASCO, Wash., July 17.—Closely pressed by two pursuers who intended his cap- ture and jailing for a suspected attempt at fraud, James Wade jumped a sixty- eight foot bluff into the sSwift, deep Yaki- ma River above here, successfully swam to_the other shore and escaped unharmed, Wade's desperate feat was a bit of Tracy sensationalism. He presented a time check to Miss Ida Carlson, cashier of the Washington Irrigation Company at Zillah, Yakima County, and Miss Car! son said it was raised. Wade sald he would wait while the cashier telephoned | to the foreman who issued the check, but just before an answer was received Wade took to his heels. 1 Charles Bailey, bystanders, chased him a quarter of a mile to the high banks nof by Douglass. With a mighty leap he plunged far down into the river, apsheflr jump of nearly seventy feet. His pur. suers watched the fugitive swim the river and escape. Kings County Democrats Nominate.

WASHINGTON, July 17.—It is probable that the division of the Philippines will be abolished when General Davis takes command on September 30, and that it will be made a department divided into different districts, as the reduction of the troops in the islands and the changes in- cident to the return of General Chaffee to this country make this change advisable.

WARARAAARAA AL AAR LA AARAAAAR AAR R AR AR R ARR AR ESCAPE TRIAL BY RESIGNING School Trustees in San Jose Step Down and Out, Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, July 17.—Rather than face a trial on charges of conspiracy and mal- feasance, School Trustees Jones, Ryan and Wheeler tendered their resignations to Mayor Worswick this evening. This actlon was hastened by the re- fusal of the Supreme Court to-day to grant a writ of prohibition restraining the Mayor and Council from trying the accused. In this Mayor Worswick has scored a telling point over the Mackenzie- ites and secured control of the Board of Eaucation, These trustees were ap- the places of members of the old board who resigned in the last days of the Mac- Kenzie administration to escape belng ousted as their successors were. In the face of over a $5000 deficit Trus- tees Jones, Ryan and Wheeler, so the Mayor charged, conspired with’ the old board and committed malteasance in clecting A. E. Shumate City Superin- tendent of Schools at an increased salary of o0 per year. To-night’s Council meeting promised to be a lively one, but the big audience was disappointed, for aside from reading the resignations of the three Trustees, which were at once accepted, and a dismissal of the charges, nothing' was done. When Jores, Ryan and Wheeler learned that the Supreme Court had denied their writ, they went to the Mayor's office and ten- dered their resignations. The accused men gave as a reason for resigning that they did not wish to embarrass the present administration and tie up the school department in a legal contest. Mayor Worswick is now in control of the School Department, which for the first time In years has been wrested from Jchn D. Mackenzie. With the filling out. ‘of three vacancies he will have four of the five members of the board. The Supreme Court vesterday refused to grant a writ of prohibition to School Trustees Jones, Ryan and Wheeler to re- strain the Council of San Jose from hear- ing malfeasance charges. Attorneys Partridge and Jacobs, who represented the Trustees, raised the point that the mem- bers of the School Board were State officers and consequently could not be tijed by the Mayor and Common Councll, and further that the evidence presented was not sufficient to substantiate the charges. City Attorney Brown and At- turney Nicholas Bowden appeared for the Mayor and Council. The latter argued that as the Board of Education was a creature of the city charter, which de- fined its powers, it also had the right to remove them for the offenses charged and that the charge of malfeasance made could be amply sustained. At the close of the argument the Supreme Court re- fused the writ asked, and held that the Council was not proceeding in excess of its jurisdiction to try and determine the charges against the accused. The result of the decision is far reaching, as it es- tablishes the right of the Mayor to sus- pend and the Common Council to try members of appointive boards who may violate the charter. MINERS FIND A GIANT TUSK Trinity County Furnishes Another Mastodon Remnant. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, July 17.—That one of the great prehistoric mastodons once roamed the mountains of Trinity County is now proven beyond a doubt. A month ago in the old Nash mine, at Carrville, in the famous Coffee Creek mining district, the tusk of a gigantic prehistoric animal was unearthed. It was eight feet in length and nine inches through at the big end. As soon as. the tusk was exposed to the air it crumbled. Word has been received in Redding that the mate to the big tusk has just been unearthed in the same mine: The tusk {)usl dug out is the same size as the first, ut unlike its mate it is intact and appar- ently as solid as it was when attached to the big animal to which it belonged. These discoverles are creating consid- erable cxcitement and it is confidently hoped that a complete skeleton of the big animal will be dug out before the investi- gations now being conducted are finished. Various bones and skeletons of smaller but now extinct animals have been found, but as yvet only the tusks of the mastodon have been dug out. UNRULY BALL PLAYERS ARE FINED BY COURT Manager McKibben and Pitcher Me- Fadden of the St. Joseph Team Are Mulcted. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., July 17.— As a result of the row on the baseball dlamond here yesterday afternocon, in which Manager McKibben and Pitcher McFadden of the St. Joseph team and Umpire Cole were mixed up, the manager and the player were to-day taken to the Justice court and each fined $25 and costs for disturbance, the case being pushed by Assistant District Attorney T. J. Black, who declared he would have decent base- ball in this city or break up the Western League. McKibben and McFadden were both suspended to-day by President Sex- ton of the Western League, pending-an in- vestigation, the suspenzion having been asked for by President Burns of the local team. s e Injured by a Runaway Team.
