MRE LIFTED Proof That Xearney Killed Himself Comes to Light. | |Woman ‘and Friends Make Positive Identification | of Hat. i Inquest This Morning Will Show | Manner of His Death in | Waters of the Bay. H —_— That Daniel B. Kearney, salesman for |the Brooks-Follis Electric Conipany, plunged from the ferry-boat Berkeley into the waters of the bay on the morning of , January 2 has been established. That he | premeditated the act, firsi plying himself | with liquor that his nerve should not fail him, is also a certainty. He had cadt ! nis lot with a woman and when the day of estthngement approached life became | too thorny a path for him to tread. | 'The stery of Kearney's career and death will be told at an inquest this mormng. His flirtations and serious love affairs will ‘be testified to by witnesses and by hand writing, and the print of scandal ang unrequitted affection will be upon it |all. How he went to his watery grave, smarting under the frown of one woman, while in his pocket were all the tender epistles of another, who showered a guilty love upon him, will furnish no lit- tle end of the sensation in a case tha has been dragging before the publ! y for days because of the lack of on the part of the @olice in solv | primer problem in detective work. A wronged husband will face a jury to expel all suggestions of foul play that have, for an unknown reason, seeped into the case. Then facts one by one | will be presented to show the manner of | the unfortunate salesman’s death and the {care with which he planned and accom- | plished it. One witness, and an impor- |tant one, may be missing. The woman, |of whom the police knew nothing until ! informed by the publication of facts by | The Call, may be absent because of the inability of the detectives to locate her. Her testimony alone is required to ex- plain just what drove Kearney to sui- cide and to reveal what happened during the last hours of his life which were spent in her company. ! UNWILLING WITNESSES. | There may be some unwilling witnesses | brought before the Coroner. | nation of some persons to hinder ever effort that has been made to bring the a solution has been most pro- nounced. Men who are acquainted with all the details of the deed persist not only in remaining silent but have evaded issues and made misleading statements that some one might be protected. Dur= ing the investigation which The Call be- gan two days ago such persons have been fcund, and whether or not they will squirm under the pressure of the law and tell the truth when the solemn obli- gations of an cath has been put to them remains to be seen. The danger of the revelation of the woman's name appears to have cauged much anxiety, especially on the part’of Kearney’s associates and friends. Charles Thelen, who was one of the dead man's chums, and who was the first to probe into the manner of his death and arrive at a conclusion, seals his lips and denles admissions that he at one time made. Thelen's energy extended so far that he case to caused Zenus O. Pratt of the Pratt Elec- | to | tric Company at danchez street accompany Kearney's lady friend to Oak- land €oon after the drowning and identify the hat. Yet at first he refused to give the ‘woman's name, and later said that| he had never heard of her at all. Pratt {s at present in Honolulu, whither he went to install electric appliances in a new ho- tel being bullt by the Von Hume-Young Company. Employes of the Southern Pacific Com- pany told yesterday of the identification ' of the hat by the woman. P. H. Maloney and G. B. Furniss relate how she and Pratt went to the Oakland mole shortly after the drowning and the former named Kearney as the owner of the hat which was picked up by the captain of the Berkeley. The woman, as.they describe her, had the appearances of one of the unfortunate creatures of her sex, a little over an average height, slender, small faced, with dark eyes and blonde hair. IRONED THE HAT. Pratt did most of the talking. The girl stated that on the night of January 23 Kearney had visited her, and that she had sat on the hat, crushing it out of shape. Afterward she tried to repair the injury by ironing it out, but creases re- mained, and by these creases she was able to make a positive identification. | “The detectives then went to work. They secured the hat and took it to the em- ployes of the electrical company, where it was identified. The story of Kearney's movements on the morning of his death | was all news to them, but they verified cach statement made by The Call and subpenaed witnesses to appedr at the in- | quest. i Early in the morning Kearney left a | nearby saloon and went to the place of ! business, where he took twenty-five tins of fuse wire, each weighing a pound, for the purpose of bearing his body down when he jumped into the bay. It was raining heavily at the time and he left a trail of water on the floor, by which his movements were traced, The detectives, to satisfy themselves, caused stock to be aken in the store vesterday and found that the twenty-five tins were missing. Only one tin was found on the body. It is the supposition of the police that the other twenty-four tins were taken off the body before it was taken to the | Morgue. The theory that Kearney took the wire along as samples is ridiculed by the members of the firm. It is a | standard article and samples of it are | never required. The gun metal watch, which has been mentioned as missing | from the body. was given to the woman by Kearney, o he told some of his com- panions previous to the day of his death. Where It is now is not known, but if it has not already been placed in the hands of his relatives it soon will be. CAUSE FOR RETICENCE. The accident insurance policy which might be a cause for relatives being backward in bringing to light evidence of sulcide was issued by John R. Foley ot #7 Montgomery street for the Union Casualty and Security Company of St. Louis. It was for $35000 and was taken out for a period of one year from February 27, 19%02. Kearney died on January 23 of the present year, a little more than a menth before the policy expired. Had ac- cldent been proved as the cause of death the full value would have been paid; had murder been given as the cause of death the executors would have received 20 per cent of the $3000, but in the event of sui- cide the policy Is null and vold.
