Ziegenfuss Found Dead in His Room, Proprietor - of the Manila American a Victim of Despondency. Charles O. Ziegenfuss, editor and part proprietor of the Manila American and formerly one of the best known newspa- | ver men of San Francisco, was found dead in bed in the Burlington Hotel at half past 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The key of one of the gas burners in the room had been turned fully on. No writing was left by the deceased to indicate that his death was the result of suicide, but he had been sick and very despondent for some time. Ziegenfuss arrived from Manila about six weeks ago and had offered his inter- esf in his newspaper for sale, as he found that he could not live in that tropical cli- mate. He had been a sufferer for a long time with malarial fever and dysentery, and that was the sole reason why he left the Philippines. He was In very despon- dent mood last Wednesday afternoon, :ng a been unable to shake off the fevér and that he felt so miserable in consequence | thereof that he did nct think it was worth while to live any longer. He said he be- lieved his time had about come and that he would *“go soon.” He said his mother was living in Pennsylvania and that In the event of his death he desired his body to be cremated and the ashes sent to his mother. Ziegenfuss was one of the best known newspaper men on the Pacific Coast. He was big-hearted and eccentric. He was. ot different times, city editor of the San Francisco Post, Stockton Mail, Fresno Republican, Fresno Expositor, and acting ('!l\ editor of the Chrohicle, and worked | as a reporter on the Examiner and Chron- besides doing occasional literary work for weekly newspapers. In Tueson and Phoenix, Ariz., he #so did mewspa- per ‘work. “Zieg, 'as he was familiarly called, was pepular not only with his fellow workers, but with®all others with whom he hap- pened to come In contact. He had an in- haustible fund of good humor, and was st all times considered the best of com- panions. It is believed that he also has relatives residing in Boston. Snake Charmer Has Trouble. Adeline Wicks, the snake charmer, se- cured a warrant from Judge Conlan yes- terday for the arrest of Mason W. Stev- ens, a former soldier, on the charge of battery. She alleges that Stevens kept her locked in a room at 502 Bush street for a week and yesterday struck her on the mouth, breaking one of her teeth. Mason-had‘her arrested about two weeks ago for appropriating $0 of his money, but the case was dismissed by Judge Ca- baniss. —_——— Norris Died Intestate. Mrs. Jeannette Norris, widow of the late Frank Norris; the young author, who died recently, filed a petition for letters of administration upon the estate of her husband.

Sl UBR Performs Three Operations at Cooper Medical College. ol b Cooper Medical College was the scene of much activity yesterday morning, when the eminent specialist, Dr. Lorenz, | again demonstrated his remarkable methiod of treating congenital disloca- tions, There was a large gathering of medical men. At 10 o’clgck the ductor attended by his assistant, Dr. Mueller, and. Dr. James ‘Watkins, Dr. Emmet Rixford and Dr. Stillman, began to Joperate. His subjects were a boy named Veronlc Battistinl of 425 Broadway, who was was club-footed; Viola Anita Lord, aged 3 years, daughter of Dr. F. F. Lord, and Norma Giovannoni,” aged 5 years, whose parents live at 613 Vallejo street. Veronic is ¢ years of age and therefore the treatment was necessarily more ex- acting than that required by .the.5- month-old infant of Guy T. Jackson, who was operated upon for a similar malform- ation on Wednesday at the Al'fllialed Col- leges. Little Norma was treated for congenital dislocation of both hips and the other in- fant patient for single disiocation. In the three cases the doctor was suc- | cessful. He placed the clubbed feet of Veronic Battistini in normal position and also manipulated the dislocated hips of them in plaster of paris casts in the hope than in six months’ time the children will be able to show to their parents and the world that they have been given full use of their limbs. % Among those who were present at the operations were: Dr. W. S. Thorne, Dr. I. W. Thorne, Dr. C. N. Elilawood, Dr. Henry Gibbona Jr., Dr. Mor- ton Gibbons,” Dr. George B. Hanson, DF. Dr.' De Vecchl, Dr. Shumate, -Dr. ne, Dr. Alden, Dr. Tilton E. Tillman, Dr. Costigan, Dr. Albert Houston, Rooney, Dr. C. F. Griffin, Dr. ¥ Pache Dr. Walter Gibbons, Dr. C. A. Nahl, J. O. Hirschtelder Dr. Willlam Dorr, Dr- Winterberg, Dr. William F. Blake, Dr. Wil liam Osmers, Dr. J. B. Hannah, Dr. C. M. Cunningham, Dr. A. B. McConneil, Dr. P. F. Abbott and Dr. Samuel Gardner. Dr. Somers and Dr. Rumwell adminis- tered the anesthetics to the children. Dr. Lorenz has the greatest hope for the absolute cure of his patients. ‘While every credit is given Dr. Lorenz ins the originator of the method of treat- | ing congenital dislocations, it is a fact | that many members of the medical pro- | fession both in Europe and America have, with more or less success, followed his teaching of “bloodless surgery.” Almost every orthopaeaic surgeon has been long familiar with the specialist’s methods. Dr. Rixford of this city and | Dr. James Watkins have performed the Lorenz operations in several instances, | 'There has been a great'deal said about the operations in adult cases. Recognized medical experts say that it can be per- formed only in cases of young children, and even then it is not always success- ful. | possibly be determined until the plaster of paris cast is' removed. That time is al- ways looked forward to with.a natural, anxiety. One’ great advantage is the absence of pain following the setting of a congenital dislocation, and even in the treatment of | the club-foot the subject remains free | from pain after the operation. Last evening the little patients were all | doing well and resting comfortably. With the exception of the nausea following the anaesthetic the children have experienced Dot the slightest inconvenience.

N, retired, has made to the Secretary of State his report upon the results of his investigations alcng the Alaskan boupdary of certain stories which have found freeuent repeti- tion in late years to the effec. that mon- xxmnu have been discoyvered marking the al boundary line 'ween Alaska and the British Northwest Territory at a point many leagues farther from the seat than the British have been willing to ad- mit. Lieutenant Emmons was selected for the work of inquiring into the sub- Ject because he was thoroughly familiar with the country in which the supposed boundary- stones exist. He spent much of the past summer in the region and now has reached a conclusion. The State Department at this time will ndt make the report public. The Inquiry Is regard- ed as but one chapter in a long series of investigations which have been going on for the past ten years under the auspices of the State Department., It is sald the department has investigated promptly every rumor bearing on the existence of beuridary monuments which. presented the least appearance of plausibility. Lieutenant Emmons declares that he Las not breathed a word of the nature of his conclusions to any one elcepl thn o{- ficials here in Wasl as a fair | be boundary monuments, else ‘the Stats Department would regard as incumbent on it to take steps to bring that fact to the attention of the British Government with a view to securing ratification of the present temporary boundary. Instead of doing this the report has been referred te -Secretary John W. Foster and Senator airbanks for their information. They are members of the High Joint Commis- sion, which was charged with the settle- ment of the Alaskan boundary question among many other important matters. Aims to Check Dueling. PARIS, Nov. 6—M.
