Y., March §—The most important development in the Burdick murder mystery to-day was the discov- by the police of evide to corrobo- | rate the story told by Policeman of having met a woman on Ashland ave. at about 1 o'clock on the night of the murder. The fact that the police are stiil working on this clew indicates that have not abandoned the theory that oman had a hand in the crime. »wn women who have se are described as the ce | “lone woman,” woman taken to the Ashland enue and Summer street by a cab driver. The general description given to | the police by those who saw a woman in | the vicinity of the Burdick house on the of the murder tallles in many de- The three were seen at different | times and under unusual circumstances The woman of whom the cabman has | given information was taken to the cor- of Ashland avenue and Summer hortly after midnight. She walked up Ashland avenue in the direc- of the Burdick house. The “lone man was met by Patrolman Meyer Ashland avenue and Bryant street 1 o'ciock on the same night. The “lost woman” was met at about "11:30 o'clock within four blocks of the Burdick home. It is the opinion of the doctors who examined Burdick’s body | on the following morning that he had | been killed between 12 and 1 o'clock. A well-known business man directed the | “lost woman” to a car. She told him she wanted to get up to the corner of Frank- lin and Tupper streets. Her manner was | excited and nervous. The “lost woman' | took a car downtown at 1:30 o'clock. | The bustuess man saw her board the car. | That would have brought her downtown | at about 2 o'clock. The cab driver was on | lower Main street at that hour and was surprised to see there the “fare” whom he had taken to Ashland avenue and Summer et two hours before. hether these three women are one and the same is the question the police will endeavor 1o answer. As a result of to- day’s work along this line they have been | able to get one more witness to confirm their belief that the three are the same | person. The new witness was on his way | home in the Elmwood district at about 1:15 o'clock on the night of the murder. He met a woman unaccompanied, hurry- ing along Ashland avenue. The place where he met her was one block north of where a woman had been seen by Meyer. Passenger Train Is Badly Wrecked. BIRMINGHAM.

The American-British Rifies are hampions of the Association Football A Before yesterday’s games were played the Vampires and the Rifles were tied for first place with 11 points each. | On the grounds at Webster street, Ala- | meda, yesterday the Rifles won their | match against Albion Lodge, while the Vampires tied the Indepéndents. As a victory gives 2 points and a draw game 1, the scores stand—American-British Rifles 13 points, Vampires 12 points. Ex- | cept for the fact that the premier posi- tion depended on the outcome of yester- day’s games, the play was tame and un- interesting. The Vampires did not seem to be up to their usual form, and the Rifles quite out- matched the Albions. The Independents took the field shortly after 1 o’clock with a new man, Thorpe, in the forward line. In the first few minutes of play Thorpe and Allison were hurt, of the match the left wing was of little use. In fhe first half Owens, pendent captain, carried the ball from the | center of the field past the halfbacks and | In the second backs and scored a half Lynch, ent goal, kicked the bis own men, the ball rebounded and went Into goal, thus scoring a lucky point for the Vampires. As neither side scored again, the match ended in a tie, one goal apiece. The Vam. pire forwards did not take advantage of all their opportunities, Lynch was a tower of strength to the Independents. Smith, Owens and Watt were the best of the Independent forwards and Melville | played & good game. For the Vamplres ichardson rendered excellent service at back and Harwood played well at half- back. The teams lined up as follows goal. Independents. Poriticne. Vampires. Forbes. . -Goalkecper. .. .J. H. Robertson Armatrong. .. Right back SIS Lynch. Left back..... Melville. ‘Left halfback.

Outslde Z Soon after 3 o'clock the Rifles lined up against Albion Lodge. It soon became ap- parent that the Rifles were too strong for their opponents, and before the end of the match they had rolled up 6 goals to 0 against them. Lyden kicked the first two goals, Connolly the third and Shand the three last. For the losers Hooker and Robertson play the best game, McPherson was got to blame for the large number of goals made against him. Duquesne was also promi- nent in the forward line of the Alblons. For the Rifles Lydon, Connolly, Shand and Leahy did good work, as also did Chambers and the two backs. The play- ers and theiy positions were as follows: Alblon Lodge. Poeitions Rifles.

All the Irish societies are taking unusual Interest in the arrangements and the meeting was well attended. It was decided to hold Gaelic athletic sports in the afternoon of the 17th at the Presidio grounds and literary exercises and dancing in the evening at Mechanics’ Pavillon. During the the athletics skiliful dancers will give exhibitione of the ever picturesque Gaelic | fancy dances. There will be a hurling | match and a good old fashioned Irisi football game.

Because of this not a single clean score was made during the day. Even Feudner, Nauman and Walter Schemwell, a champion shot who halls from Colorado, were unable to shatter twenty bluerocks without a miss. Nau- man was high man in the club shoot with a score of 23. He was the only competitor to secure a silver bar by breaking fifteen consecutive targets. Walter Schemwell, one of the best shots in Colorado, was a guest of the club. He was not in good form and was handl- capped by the wind. He and J. Gardner shot as a team in a tournament in Colo- rado and broke 199 bluerocks out of a pos- sible 200, thus establishing a world's rec- ord. D. Daniels, one of the old-time trap shots of the city, who was formerly a member of the Lincoin Gun Club, also took part in the day’s sport. In the ten-pair race, which was the most difficult event of the programme, he secured second money with thirteen breaks to his credit. Nauman, who got first money, only beat him by one, Mrs. Sheard, the champion lady trap shot of the Northwest, also shot as a guest of the club. The results: Club shodt, twenty-five birds, scor From the 20-yard mark—Feudner 20, Nauman 2 18-yard mark—Halght 22, Golcner 15, Daniels 15, Forster 22, Whitworth 20; 16-yard_mark— Donohoe 18, Murdock 10, Shield Sweeney 15.

NAVAL VETERANS WILL ENTERTAIN VISITORS 4-3; Make Arrangements at Special Meet- ing to Receive Eastern Ship- mates in This City. The Naval Veterans of the Civil War held a special meeting Saturday evening at the Palace Hotel. In calling the meet- ing to order Martin Murray, the tem- porary chairman, dwelt on the necessity of continuing the Naval Veterans’ organi- zatlon In order to tender a reception to their shipmates on their arrival in this | city this year, which will probably be their last visit to California. He also advised the publication of a national naval roster of all naval veter- ans in the United States to facilitate the gaining of pensions. The chairman appointed a committee to secure headquarters to entertain the Eastern Naval Veterans during their stay in this city. He also named a committee to procure badges for the members of the assoclation. The idea of putting models of the Hart- ford and Oregon in the parade was dis- | cussed. The matter was left to the com- mittee on ways and means. Among the Veterans present were Martin Murray, H. K. Smedley, Captain F. Tuttle, G. F. ‘Whitcomb, B. F. Strongberg, 8. M.

When marksman had his holding correct and was about to press the trigger, a blast of wind would throw him off and the result would be a isappointing shot.

(RUTTSCHNITT IN A STREETCAR Finds Travel on One of His Trains Too Slow. —in That a man may be vice president and general manager of a rallroad system as great as the Southern Pacific Company and yet suffer the discomfort and petty annoyances of the ordinary traveler was exemplified yesterday afternoon. Julius Kruttschnitt, the executive head of the railroad on this coast. was a pas- from Burlingame, accompanied by senger this family. It took nearly two hours to reach the outskirts of the city, which meant a speed of less than nine miles an hour. The passengers were left on a siding beyond Valencia-street station for some time. Mr. Kruttschnitt and his fellow travelers finally tired of the delay and left the train. A plebian street car was faster than his express train and they all board- ed one inward bound There was delay along the line for nc apparent cause. There was additional delay at the cemeteries, where two cars were coupled to the train. The train bumped into the cars with a crash which shook up the passengers. When the train started again there was no siding it missed on the way into town It was hung up for a time on one of the Mission bridges and nervous passengers cast startled glances out-of the windows as the fron structure creaked. From the look on the general manager's countenance the parties responsible for the delay will find it difficult to explair matters to-day. —_————— th of Captain Payson’s Son.
