POLICE FEAG DEEP PLOT BY ANARCHS Authorities in Chicago Troubled by Startling Rumor. Dangerous Persons Are Said to Be on a Reception Committee, —— Investigation Is Progressingyto De- termine if There Be Any Possi- bulity of an Attempt on the President’s Life. —_———— Special Dispatch to The Call. JCHICAGO, Secpt. 17.—Are there two an- srchists or friends of anarchists on the committee for the rcception and enter- tainment of President Roosevelt? This is the alarming question which Chief O'Neill has been called upon to an- swer. As a consequence of a rumor to that effect and something more tangible in the form of a request for an investiga- tion, Chief O'Nelll's expert on the subject of anarchy is conducting an inquiry into the views of two members of the com- mittee. Ofticer Stephen Muchowski is conduct- ing the investigation which centers about i an oficer of tne general committee and | another prominent member. Every effort | has been made to surround the situation | with secrecy. Those who brought about | the investigation, the Chief and the officer | conducting it refuse to discuss the affair | cr contribute any information concerning | it. The inquiry was set in motion yester- day. To-day Muchowski was _still -en- gaged in the work, and his report is ex- pected to be ready to-morrow. For several days rumors have been in | circulation to the effect that persons of | anarchistic tendencies had secured places | on the committee such as will afford them | an opportunity to be‘in close touch with | President Roosevelt during his visit. Bf- | *orts were made to quiet the story and it was thought to be idle gossip until yes- terday, when the action of some person on the committee who invoked the aid of the police made it impossible for the’ po- lice to suppress the story longer. Ephraim Philip Rosenthal, secretary of | the entertainment committee and the real | head and center of the Roosevelt recep- | tion, has frequently been mentioned as having socialistic or anarchistic views. | When seen this afternocon he refused to | | deny definitely that he held anarchistic{ views or that he had interested himself in the case of Abraham Isaak and Miss | Goldman after the McKinley assassina- | tion. _Closely associated with Rosenthal in the | coupcil of the entertainment promoters is | Max Rabinoff, an employe of a music house. Rabinoff, too, has been mentioned | as an “ideal anarchist.” Outside of these | | two men no others on the committete are | kncwn as having devoted much time or thought to subjects that enter into most “ideal’” anarchy. | _Rabinoft vehemently denied to-day that he held any views approaching anarchy. He said that as a member of the Indus- {rial Art League he had investigated re- ports as_to Rosenthal and did not believe | them. He said, however, he had learned while making his inquiries that Rosenthal was In Justice Prindeville's court when Isaak and others were arraigned for their preliminary hearing. THOUSANDS IN THE LINE TO VIEW THE REMAINS People of Colorado Springs Render Honor to Memory of Winfield Stratton. COLORADO SPRINGS, Sept. 17.—The remains of the late Winfield Scott Strat- | ton were lying in state this afternoon at the Mining Exchange building and were viewed by fully 10,000 people. The line of people was constant from 1 o'clock to 6 {p. m., and there were so many people still in line when that hour arrived that the remains were allowed to stay until 7:15, at which time the doors were closed | and the casket was removed to the home on North Weber gtreet. The floral trib- utes to Stratton were the most elab=| orate ever seen in Colorado Springs. The funeral service at the Stratton residence will_take place to-morrow morning and the burial will occur in the afternoon. To-day’s Western League game with Kansas City was forfeited to the visitors, Manager Burns refusing to allow his team to play owing to the fact that the remains of W. 8. Stratton were lying in| state In_the Mining Exchange. The fun. eral of Stratton will take place to-morrow | and to-morrow’s game will also be for- feited. Stratton was one of the owners of the local ball park and a great friend of the team. 5 —_———— INDIANS ARE DESIROUS OF STATE GOVERNMENT Notable Meeting of Governors of Civilized Tribes to Be Held This Month. GUTHRIE, O. T., Sept. 17.—Pleasaht Porter, Governor of the Creek Indfan Na- tion, has called a meeting of the Govern- ors of the five civilized tribes to be held at South McAlester, I T., September 25, for the purpose of formulating a general plan for bringing Indian. Territory into Statehood at the expiration of tribal gov- ernment in 1906. Governor Porter says the Indians are opposed to Statehood with Oklahoma. The other Governors are Mosby of the Green McCurtin_of _the Choctaws; Buffington of the Cherokees and Johnston of the Seminoles. The meeting will be the most important ever held on Indian soll, since five Indians’ Governors will form plans to dissolve their government in order to adopt thal of the white man. : o S Miss Evelyn Hunt a Bride. SAN RAFAEL, Sept. 17.—Miss Evelyn Hunt of Ross Valley became the bride of Edward Downing of Visalla at noon to-day. The ceremony took place at the pretty summer residence of the bride's cousin, Charles Belden, in Ross Valley. Rev. Dr. H. C. Minton of the San An- selmo Theolo;ical College officiated. Orly intimate friends of the couple were invited. The bride was attended by Mrs. C. E. Zumall of Visalia, while little Misses Margaret Belden and Maria Lou- ise Harrington were bridesmaids. Charles A. Belden acted as best man. Miss Hunt became widely known throughout tke country while acting as professional nurse to President McKinley. She was present at the chief executive’'s bedside | when he died and probably knows more about the last hours of the President’'s life than does any other person. Edward Downing is a wealthy citizen of Visalia. Mr. and Mrs. Downing, after a short wedding tour, will locate in Visalia, Chickasaws, Sues for Coal Mining Shares, MARYSVILLE, Sept. 17.—Suit was brought in the Yolo Superior Court to- day by N. P.

He charges fraud, alleging that the Royles by false representation senunded the board of directors to trans- er his stock to themselves. —_—— Bedroom Suits at Any Price.

Chance for Recovery Will Be Fair Should He Survive This Day. 4 / LOS ANGELES, Sept. 18.—The condi-~ tion of Senator Bard at midnight was better than at any time since Sunday, but still there has been no decided change. ‘While the improvement has been very gradual, it is taken to mean that he has a better chance for recovery, and his phy- siclans said at midnight that unless there was a relapse within the next twenty- four hours his chance for life would be fair. What is most feared is that his heart will fail. That organ has been pumping blood through the.arteries at the rate of between 140 and 160 pulsations a minute for several days, and but for the rugged constitution of the patient this long ago would have produced death, Yesterday the fever was not so high and by the use of various remedies ad- ministered in small doses the physicians began the effort to reduce his pulse. In this they were successful last night. At noon the Senator's pulse was 150 and at 8 o'clock it had been reduced to 130. At midnight it varied between 120 and 130, with no increase in temperature. Another favorable sign was the marked clearing of the lungs. Their congested condition is much less pronounced. The left lung, which on Tuesday was almost solidified, is now causing him little dis- tress, and this, together with the cheer- fulness of the patient, is taken as a b(‘e- ful sign. Dr. Taggart was careful to say at mid- night that the improvement was not yet so advanced as to remove danger. e asserted that Senator Bard might die at any second, his life depending upon the ability of his weak heart to withstand the abnormal strain to which it was sub- Jjected. In the weakened condition of the patient it would be almost impossible, should there be an attack of heart fail- ure, to successfully apply the remedies which restored him after the relapse of Monday night. The demeanor of the patient has chang- ed for the better. Late last night he said to those about him: MYSTERY EILS STRANGE CRIME Husband and Wife Are Fatally Injured at Their Home. Man’s Throat Cut and Woman Suffers From Skull Fracture. MISSOULA, Mont., Sept. 17.—Ira Press- ley and his wife, whose home is near Su- perior, are at Parson’s Hospital in this city, and both are near death. Pressley's throat is cut from ear to ear and the | woman is unconscious from a blow in the head that caused a fracture of the skull. The man is conscious and says he was In his bed when his throat was cut, but he says he does not know who did the cutting. How Pressley has continued to live dur- ing the past twenty-four hours is a won- der. His wlndglpe is completely severed. By pressing the chin down toward the chest in such a manner as to bring the severed windpipe together, the man can ngonk in a barely audible voice and in this manner was able to answer a few questions. He denies having had any trouble with his wife. v @ ieirinimimiieieinimleieiiieiiil @ “Well, I believe I have a chance yet, for I am feeling very much better than at this time yesterday. If my heart holds out I will pull throu; Then he jokingly remarked to his phy- sicians: “I think that all of you doctors might manufacture a new heart for me. I wish you would try.” From time to time yesterday the mem- bers of the family were admitted to the sick room and their presence seemed to cheer the patient greatly. His two daugh- ters arrived from a private scheol at! Berkeley. The Senator had been told that | they were coming and impatiently awaited | their arrival. The train was a few min- | utes late and_he kept asking when they | would come. When they entered his rcom | he half raised himself in bed and with a | cry of joy told them that he was not | very ill-that they must not worry—and | then he tried to tell them how delighted | he was to see them. It had been feared that the excitement would have a bad ef- fect upon him, but it seemed to have just | the opposite result, for after they had de- | parted he was more cheerful and re-| DR. KILMER'S SWAMP-ROOT. HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the kidneys; if It stains. the linen it is evidence of kidney trcuble; too frequent desire to pass it, or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney and bladder rem- edy, fulfills every wish in curing rheuma- tism, pains in the back, kidneys, lver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects Inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the ex- traordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you shouid have the best. Sold by druggists in fifty- cent and one-dollar sizes. You may have a sample bottle of Swamp-Root and a book that tells more about it, both sent absolutely free, by mail, Address Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing- hamton, N. Y. When writing mention that you read this generous offer in the San Francisco Sunday Call. Don’t make any, istake, but remember the name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and the address, Binghamton, N. Y., on every bottle. ——ey marked: “Was ever any man blessed with a more lovable family than mine?” Dr. Taggart said that this cheerfulness of the patient was in his faver. Senator Bard's physicians, while ad- mitting that there has been an improve- ment, do not hold out any great hope. They say guardedly that there is danger of a relapse at any time—or, as they express it, a period of depression equal to the cheerfulness which the patlent is now showing. At midnight Bard's pulse was 128; tem- perature 101% and respiration normal. During the earler part of last night he slept at intervals and at 12:20 o'clock he dropped into what appeared to be a deep and refreshing sleep. At that hour the physicians sald that he probably would sleep until morning. If he does, they expect that there will be a more marked improvement. ’ A - — ——— ot 5 D W = Derby Sack for $10.00 There are like, but the wish to pay. tell the head pictured. some cloth in Come in Out-of-town customers are assured of a good fit through our self-measuring system—write for samples and seif-measuring biank. - New fall patterns are now well represented. - SNW00Ds( 718 Market Street and Cor.
