Special Dispatch to The Call. POMONA, Oct. 9.—Cold in death, a pur- plish white in hue, stretched out upon rough boards which rested upon saw- | horses, the .body of pretty. little Lizzle Smith, who was assassinated by an un; known person late on Tuesday evening, lay-in the rcar part.of a dilapidated va- cant store in.Chino until this morning. It -was.a pitiful - sight, this, brown- haired, delicately featured girl, - lylng dead. with half-closed eycs amid rude surroundings, while hundredsof men from all, parts of Chino Valley went and viewed the. remains because of sheer cu- rigsity in the victim of the most myste- rieus tragedy ever known in this local- ity. The Coroner afterward ordered the body turned over to the frenzied mother of the dead girl. The remains were sub- i scquently taken in charge by an_ under- | tuker and removed by raflroad to San ! Bernardino foy burial. 2 | Notwithstanding some of .the best de- { tectives in this region are at work upon | || the strange shooting of Lizazle Smith two | | nights ago while she was driving. home | | from the beet sugar town of Chino with | | her youthful lover, not the least clew | | has been found that may lead to égve&l- 1 ing.the identity of the assassin or éxplain | { why he wighed the death of a 17-year-old | | 8irl. The ground all about the scene of | the sbooting has been examined thorough- | 1y for telltale footprints, The bugey in | which the girl’ rode -when she -was shot dead from: behind has been looked over | and.-over. | Young Trinkle, the girl's companion, ‘hus been questioned time and again on | jevery detall, but nothing to: solve the | mystery can be found. The most plausi- ! ble theorv advanced is that some'.one | must have been jealous' of the fondness of Andreas Trinkle and Lizzle Smith for | each other and that the person: followed the couple on Tuesday evening-from 'Po- mona“to Chino and secreting himself in the dense’shade of the treés in the public park at Chino fired upon' the boy dnd girl | as_they slowly drove along the road. Trinkle and ‘none of the girl's friends | -can imagine any one who was jealous of them. The only clew to this theory is the information that some young man in Fresno- recently proposed marriage to Lizzie Smith and that he wrote her an-. | gry letters when she left Fresno and re- { turned to San Bernardino without seeing |him again.

L + General T. J. Stewart of Pennsylvania Defeats John C. Black and John McElro y in the Contest to Succeed Eli S. Torrance, the Retiring Chief of-the - Order General Torrance began his address with a touching allusion to the assassina- tion of President McKinley, eulégizing in strong terms the dead President’s char- acter and condemning in bitter language the crime that struck him dowm He ad- vocated the enactment of laws by Con- gress which should make certain the pun- ishment of any person who should make an assault on the Chief Executive. No quibble concerning constitutional rights, he contended, should be allowed to stand in the way of such legislation. He said that lawlessness of speech usu- ally precedes lawlessness of act, and add- eéd: ‘“We have nevef had a President who deserved to be caricatured and we never will have one that a self-respecting press or people can afford to hold up to publii ridicule. More respect for mightful speech with less appetite for sensagiomalism will do much to wither the evfl passions of men and to promote the saflety and secu- rity of both life and property in this re- public.”” Taking up the questionk of pensions, Geneéral Torrance related = the circum- stanees connected with the, investigation of the charges against former Pension Commissior.er BEvans. Sreaking of the report madc by the CGirand Army’s com- mittee on pensions, General Torrance sald that the accéoptance of the resignation of Commissioner Evans by the President im- | mediately fol'owed the pfesentation of this committes’s report to him. “Referring further to the effect produced by this in- quiry he said: One most gratifying result of our inwestiga- tion was to find that no ground jexisted for tha wholesale charges of {rghd So/ often/ mada against the pensioners.

Aside from the elec- tion of these officers the most interesting feature of the encampment was the re- pert of the pension ¢ommittee of the Grand Army of the Republic.

It accused the personnel of this division cf approaching the reports of examining sur- geons throughout the country with suspi- | clon and distrust and as made in bad faith.
