HEMINGRAY PRESENTS A SORRY SPECTACLE ON WITNESS STAND Traducer of Name of cide, Charlotte Steffens, Tells at the Coro- ner’s Inquest of His Dealings With Her Unfortunate Girl Sui- ROBERT HEMINGRAY, THE RACEHORSE MAN WHO WOULD NOT TUPHOLD THE NAME OF A DEAD WOMAN, AND A LEADING WIT- NESS AT THE STEFFENS INQUEST. EFORE a crowd of morbidly curious people, HRobert Hemin- gray, race track habitue, pale and seemingly on the verge of collapse, told ~ yesterday the shameful story of his relations with Charlotte Steffens, known' here as Car- iotta Hemingray, who killed herself in the Hotel Knickerbocker last Saturday evening. It was at the Coroner’s inquest, which began at 10 o’clock in the forenoon, that | the man who had -been. ordered off the | Ingleside race track for traducing the name of the girl who had passed as his wife was forced to lay bare his connec- tion with the unfortunate one. He spent an hour of torture and nearly fainted on | the witness stand. Hemingray had to tell why he informed the world that Charlotte Stefflens was not his wife. Coroner Le- land did not spare his feelings when he examined him. Hemingray was the first witness. He was deathly pale and trembled as if he was suffering from palsy. He continually moistened .his lips with his tongue and | then appealed to the Coroner to let him | have a glass of water. He made the fol- lowing statement to the Coroner: All I know regarding the death of Carlotta Steffens is that on Saturday night, November 20, as I retumed from the track Carlotts s walked into the room I talked to her. It was 6 o'clock. 1 bappened to yemember that my ®rother spoke to me about a remark Carlotta had made to his wife. I said to her, “You must not gosslp, as a gossip is a mischiefmaker. You will make mischief and I don’t want you to gossip sgain.” After that our conversation ended. I then went to my dinner. After din- ner, my brother and myself went downtown to buy the latest magazines. THREATENS SUICIDE. The witness then went on to narrate how he returned and heard the pistol shot and begged his brother to enter the room. He said he could not do so, as he Pears’ What is wantéd of soap for the skin is to wash it and not hurt it.

I even told my brother that we had been quietly married. I understand the press recefved a statement from her mother that I was not. her "daughter's husgband.” The witness then went on to tell about his meeting with ‘Carlotta ‘and of their trip to this city. He told of the little | “‘tiffs” he had with her and also informed | her if she did not care for him she could | 1eturn East at any time, as he would give her the necessary ney. “Was she in such a position that site could return with honor?” asked Coro- ner Leland. “I really did not know much about her,” replied Hemingray. The witness stated that on their arriv- al in this city, Charlotte threatened to | kill herself. He said Jockey McCue was in their room at the time and was under the influence of liquor. Miss Steffens ordered him out and Hemingray ordered her to be qulet, saying he would get | McCue away. Charlotte then said -pet- ulantly, “Oh, you care .more for your iockey than for me,” and then made a grab for a satchel containing a loaded | p)xsml. Hemingray sald he frustrated | tifls attempt by removing the cartridges and taking them to his brother in an adjoining room. Op, his return Charlotte laughingly said: 0 you think I would commit suicide over you?” “Seeing she was joking, I also laughed,” said Hemingray. ““When this girl left her home, did she ieave under promise of marriage?”’ asked the Coroner. “I told her I would never marry any woman,” replied Hemingray. *“I think I said this in Indianapolis,” he added. BONIFACE LOCKE TALKS. “She did not start on this trip with you under the promise of marriage?” “Absolutely, no.” “She never asked you to right any wrong?” “What do yow mean?” asked the wit- ness. “Taking her home.” “I never took her from her home.” C. T. Hemingray, brother of the chief witness, corroborated Robert in every | particular. Mrs. C. T. Hemingray was called and said she saw Charlotte at 5:30 o’clock Sat- urcay night and she was in a happy frame of mind. Miss Cora Westphal, who was a n-lend, of the deceased, could throw no light on the inquiry. - John E. Locke, husband of the pro- prictress of the Hotel Knickerbocker, proved a verbose witness. He told every- thing he knew about the case and also gave his surmises. crinions and gave the jury the benefit of them. He volunteered information' and ennoyed the Coroner, the jury and every one else by his talkativeness. “‘One- dhy,” said the -witness, “I met Mrs. Carlotta’ Hemingray in'the hallway. BShe was lon her way to the telephone with Miss. Westphal. - She - stopped and said to me, ‘Mr. Locke, what would you do with & husband who is always cross?’ I said, ‘I would go right'in .there and make love'to him and get him out of his bad - humor.. I attributed Mr. Hemin- gray’s bad humor to his physical condi- tion. He was under medical treatment. In her conduct the dead woman was a perfect lady.” After<the witness had given a very ex- tended account of his knowledge of the case he was allowed to depart. Dr. Bacigalupl testified that the de- ceased came to her death from a gunshot wound through her head. He thought it was self-inflicted. The jury rendered the following rather uniquely composed verdict: 3 The decedent, Carlotta Steffens, came | death by a gunshot wound of the brain com- mitted by herself with suicidal intent, during a melancholy mood, ) e wrongfully from her | sickening sight to look upon.

Nothing more could be done. I thought all were doomed who had ‘not already escaped from the death trap ‘made. As to the which the explosion hi cannot form any cause of the disaster opinfon.” - Edward Peel living at: the Hoffman House, at the corner of Broderick and Tonquin streets, close:to the Fulton Iren ‘Works, told thé story of his experience as follows: i e “I am a riveter and. was employed on the Progreso. I was down in the after hold when ‘the losion happened.--I at first thought that. a pigte. had’fallen on the deck, but on hearing’a’second report I knew that something was ~seriously wrong and made for, the ladder. When on top I heard distressing shouts for help. Where I was working was as dark as a coal mine. I ‘was fortunate.to get out. | My escape I consider providential’ and I | am most ‘thankful. Willlam Sfewart and another, man named McNamara, werd éown in the hold" with me working and they luckily escaped.” ' s : PROGRESO.IS - - BEST KNOWN AS A COLLIER HE Progreso has been on this coast about ten-.years::She arrived here August 13, 1892, and ‘during most of her service has been engaged in carrying coai from forthiern ports. She made two trips to Panama during the fight between the Panama Railroad and the Pacifig Mail | Company, but it was as a collier that she was best known. She remined in. the coal trade until the increasing use of fuel | 01 s0 lessened the demand for coal that, with a number of other, coal-carriers, the Progress had to seek other occupation. The Saginaw Steel Steamship Company, which owns the vessel, chartered her to a New York corporation for five years. She was chartered to carry ofl, and it was in order to fill the requirements of :this con- tract that she was converted into a tank steamer. ™ The work.of conversion was carried on under -the supervision of Captain John: Metcalfe, ‘Lloyds’ surveyor at this port. According .to' Captain Metcalfe the sum of $102,000 has been spent on the Progreso in equipping her for her new work. -In ad- dition to the ofl tanks she was provided with new boilers, her ~machinery was thoroughly overhauled and to all intents and purposes she was a new vessel. It was expected that by December 10 she would have been ready to go on the ENGINE ESGAPES AFTER COLLISION Runs “Wild"and Causes a Second Railroad - Disaster. Special Dispatch to The Call. WALLA WALLA, Dec. 3.—One of the most unique wrecks in the history of the western division of the Northern Pacific occurred between Eltopia and Lake station, on the Franklin County desert, to-day. It resulted in three damaged loco- motives and a smashed car or two. ‘While an eastbound ‘“‘helper” was standing at Eltopia, with the engineer in the depot, an eastbound . frelght ap- proached unexpectedly-and the engineer called to the fireman to run the engine out of the way. The fireman pulled the throttle wide open and the wheels slid round and round without moving the locomotive, the attempted start- having been too sudden. The freight could not stop and jolted the ‘‘helper’’ severely. The fireman jumped, and the “helper” engine, given a start by the collision, went toward Lake with the throttle wide open and nobody on board. . A westbound freight was just starting out of Lake and the two met on the way. The engineer and fireman of the west- bound jumped and saved their lives. The two engines now stand in the Pasco yard, badly damaged. ‘WASHINGTON, -Dec. 3.—The army death list cabled from Manila under vesterday's date totals thirty-one soldiers, including ten deaths from Asiatic cholera and eight from dysentery. —— NEW YORK, Dec. 3.—The Grand Jury re- turned an indictment to-day against former Police Captain Moynahan, charging him with bribery. e LR ‘WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—Senator Hale to- day introduced & bill fixing the age for ad- mission into the Naval Academiy between the ages of 17 and 20 years.” The present limit is 15 and 21 years. 3 ~Eelgts o SONORA, Dec. 3.—The Supervisors to-day selected Sonora as the place for the location of the new County High School. ‘ A Sterling Staple Things of sterling' quality, standard value, the first sought ‘and bought are staples.

Captain Metcalfe will to-day make an official inspection of the hull. From what he could see yesterday he fears, he says, that the Progreso is smashed beyond re- pair. That the damage is serious is evi- dent even to the unskilled observer. It will be impossible to estimate the actual extent of the damage until the hull cools off enough to admit of a thorough exami- nation. The Progreso was a vessel of 1919 tons gross. She. was built-in 1885 at Sunder- land, England, for J. Jerome. She was 270 feet Iong, 36.1'feet beam and 23,5 feet deep. New York was her port of registrgtion. SEEKS IN VAIN FOR TRACE OF LOST BROTHER D. GLENN, second officer of the H i ‘transport Sheridan, almost pros- trated with grief, wandered about . the wharf ail day hoping against ‘hope. for some tidings of his brother, Charles ‘Glenn, the quartermaster of the Progreso, who Is supposed to have per- | ishe® on board the, ship. His long vigil, however, was in vain. The missing quar- termaster was seen by First Officer W. D. Sloan just before the vessel was rent by the explosion. H& was standing just forward of.the funnel at/a point where the explosion was felt most violently. His parents reside in Philadelphia, and late in the afternoon the sorrowing broth- er gave up all hope and wired to them the sad news. The death of Glenn is rendered more pathetic:by the fact that he only went to work on the doomed vessel yesterday morning. He was delighted to have ob- talned work on the Progreso, as he ex- pected that it would carry him near his home in the East. He was only 23 years of age, He came to this coast last spring | on the Lyra, and was desirous of again visiting his home and his parents. H. D. Glenn said that he feared that the news of the death of his brother would kill his aged parents. b HANSEN TELLS OF HIS ESCAPE FROM THE SHIP ‘WO of the victims of the explosion were taken to the Central Emer- gency Hospital for treatment. One was Peter Hansen, a ship carpenter, who was in the wheelhouse of the Progreso when the explosion occurred. He wids blown through the roof of the small struc- ture, alighting on the main deck about amidship. The force of the explosion had caused the deck to ralse until it was semi-circular in shape, and Hansen slid d‘odwn the incline until he struck the ship’s side. “The vessel sank rapidly,” said Hansen, yesterday, after the doctors had dressed his mumerous wounds and bruises, “and before I could regain my feet and struggle to a place of comparative safety the place where 1 landed was almost covered with | water.” Hansen's injuries; while severe and painful, are not serious. They consist of a broken right knee, contusions of the chest and arms and bruises on the head. Hansen resided at the Sailors’ Home be- fore he signed for the prospective cruise of the Progreso. The other sufferer from the explosion treated at the hospital is Walter Van Tassel, a boy, who resides at 38 Eighth street. His injuries are slight, consist- ing of abrasions of the head and face and both thighs. —_—_— ADVERTISEMENTS.

The Woman’s screams after she struck the water caus- ed an alarm to be given, and a boat which was quickly lowered rescued her and took her to the Harbor Receiving Hospital. Great credit is due the crew of the ferry- boat. The work of rescue was accom- plished with alacrity, it being an incred- ibly short time before the big vessel was brought to a stop and the small one was in the water. Mrs. Whitely claims that her husband, Joe Whitely, deserted her about one year ago, -and ‘that since then she has been ‘| obliged to toil for a livelihood. ‘About six weeks ago shé became 1ll and unable to work. She went to the City and County Hospital, where treatment was given her until last Sunday. Then Mrs. Whitely went to live with her sister, Helen Len- dowsky, at 2716 Pacific avenue. She had been feeling miserable for sev- eral days, she said, and determined to commit suicide. She purchased. a ticket for Oakland and boarded the Berkeley. ‘When the vessel was approaching Goat Island Mrs. Whitely leaped from the up- per deck and sank. Rising to the sur- face, she commenced to shout, and her cries kept the crew apprised as to her lo- cation. Mrs. Whitely is about 30 years of age. At the Harbor Hospital she was treated for contusion of the shoulder and sub- mersion, MOODY IS SOLICITOUS OF HEALTH OF SAILORS Navy Secretary Sends Admiral Hig- ginson an Order Regarding Danger of Disease. ‘WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.—No longer will bluejackets from the battleships of Rear Admiral Higginson's squadron be com- pelled to labor on the canal at Calebra if the sanitary conditions confronting them are bad. Dispatches telling of the dan- ger of disease encountered by the enlisted men prompted Secretary Moody to send a telegram to Rear Admiral Higginson on December 1st, but it had evidently not reached him when Midshipman Wain- wright, son of Commander Wainwright, was taken ill while in command of a de- tachment of enlisted men at work on the canal. The Secretary’s dispatch was: “Avoid the wuse of enlisted men ' for canal work if the conditions are unsani- tary. If native assistance is available and negessary to employ it, report estimated cost. Regard private owners’ rights in such work.” ‘While the conditions in the low lana which is being cut are, perhaps, unsani- tary, the officers in the Navy Department say that as a whole Calebra is a healthy place. Mosquitoes, the common conveyor of disease peculiar to the tropics, are not numerpus. : 4 ———— WARSHIPS WILL SATL TO SEIZE THE PORT in Electricity and. Chemistry.
