LAWRENCE COURTNEY I8 ASPHYXIATED IN SHOP Aged Umbrella Repairer Becomes Victim of the Deadly Carbon Monoxide. Lawrence Courtney, an aged umbrella repairer, was fcund dead In his shop, 914 Valencia street, yesterday afternoon by D. E. Genninger. who resides at 922 Va- len~ia street. Deceased was lying on the bed in a partly disrobed condition. A | gas stove near the body, with the stop- cock partly turned on, testified to the cause of death. The unfortunate man was 83 years of age and it is the opinion of the Coroner that in his enfeebled eondition he turned on the gas with the intention of heating the room and was overcome by the deadiy fumes before he could strike a match. TWhen the Jiacovery of the tragedy was made the room was dimiy lighted. The dead man had not been around his shop since Tuesday and Mr. Gemninger in passing the place detected an odor of gas. Upon making an investigation he found | the 0ld man dead. The Coroner was notified and the body removed to the Morgue. The deceased | was the father of Joseph Courtney and ! W. P. Courtney, a Councilman, both of Oakland. Counciiman Courtney was ap- pointed to his present position by Mayor Barstow two years ago and his term will expire on March 3. He ran at the last election on the Independent ticket for Councflman and received only 200 votes. Joseph Courtney, the other son, is not en- gaged in any occupation.

Declares Our Seamen Are Far Superior to Any Others. Hero of Manila Bay Not Enthusi- astic Over the Construction of the Isthmian Canal. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, March 26.—Admiral Dewey declares in most uncompromising terms that the imperial German navy is greatly overestimated, this answering the widely advertised pretentions of the German Emperor. The admiral delivers another blow at the German Emperor by saying that the men at the guns on the German warslips are far inferior to those of the United States vessels. In action, he adds, it weuld be found that the boasted efficiency of the Kaiser's ships would disappear. The American naval man, he believes, is superior in education and in Inteli- gence to the sea-fighter of any other na- tion, making of our marine foree the best | navy in the world. The Caribbean mancu- vers were a distinct object lesson for Wil- liam IL Admiral Dewey entertains grave doubts as to the Panama canal scheme. In his opinion the canal could be easily blocked bty the enemy in time of war. He said: The United States navy is the greatest in the world for this reason: Every man in the United States navy is a man of intelligence. He knows just what to do and the right time to do it. b A warship is an enormous machine shop and every part of that ponderous creation must be operated by intelligence. The German navy, for instance, s an entirely different organiza- tion in its makeup of human material. 1 have made deep study of that navy. My belief is that its efficiency in possible action is greatly overestimated, The men do not begin to compa n educa- tion and intelligence with Americans. Their men have, in my opinion, been educated so that they look to the officers and depend upon them for specific instructions in the least mat: ter e maneuvers in the Caribbean were not only successful, b wera the greatest object lesson of the kin obably, that the world has ever seen. It s an object lesson to the Kalser more.than to any other person, Think of it! Fifty-four warships, {ncluding colliers and all. Germany could not possibly get a fleet over here that could fight such an aggregation of warships as that, In speaking of the feasibility of the Panama canal Dewey said: I was greatly impressed a few days ago by the remarks made by the late C. P. Huntington at Galveston, Texas. He said that t e was no real necessity for an Isthmian canal and ne offered arguments that, it seemed to me, were good. In short, be said that we could get all the supplles we wanted from the Atlantic to the Pacific or the Pacific to the Atlantic by rail in a few days. It has been said that we could mobilize a naval fleet from the Pacific to the Atlantic or from the Atlantic to the Pacific in compar- atively short order, but let the enemy sink a Farship in the middie of the capal and ii.1s o L e e e e e o ) JUSPECT SOCIETY WOMAN OF THEFT Mrs. J. A. Trost’s Jewels Go With Purloined Satchel. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, March 26. A satchel containing two diamond rings and $15 in coin that Mrs. J. YA. Trost of 1425 Franklin street left temporarily on a counter at Abrahamson's store last Mon- day was stolen, and a prominent society woman is suspected of the theft. The supposed thief, who is a kleptomaniac, is under police surveillance and may be ar- rested at any time. The theft occurred while Mrs. Trost was trylng on a new Easter hat. Bhe took off the one she wore and put it on top of the satchel she had previously placed on a counter in the millinery de- partment. Then she walked twenty feet away to see how the hat looked in a mir- ror. Upon returning to take up her satch- ei she found it gone. Somebody had hap- pened along in the meantime and walked off with it. At first Mrs. Trost thought it might have been a mistake and that the person who took it might return it, but she had no such good fortune, and to-day reported the theft to the police. Mrs. Trost values the diamond rings at $100 each. The police have been working on the theory that it was a certain well-known woman who stole the satchel. A woman | in the store at the ‘time of the robbery answers the description of one known to be a kieptomaniac. —_————— Licensed to Marry.

FRENCH JUDGE STEEL GONGERNS ~ FINES SISTERS) UNITE INTERESTS Declares Them Guilty of Violating Law of Associations. Their Departure From Court Is the Occasion of Big Demonstration. —_— PARIS, March 26.—The superior aad four sisters of the order of the Little Sis-| ters of the Asgsumption appeared before the Correctional Police Court to-day on | ciations. The superior was sentenced to a fine of $20 and the sisters to $10 each. ‘Their departure from the court was occasion of a demonstration in their fav and of a counter demonstration. Fiv hundred persons surrounded the ‘carriages carrying the sisters, half of them cheer- ing, while the others shouted “Long live the republic.” A priest who was prominent among the demonstrators was arrested. The police dispersed the crowd. The Chamber of Deputies to-day com- pleted the Government's programme re- garding the religlous orders which ap- plied for authorization to remain in France, refusing by a large majority the application of the Carthusian monks, who were separated from the other orders, they being employed in manufacturing a cordial. This is the wealthiest organiza- tion in France. Abbe Lemiere spoke to-day on behalf ot the monks, urging that they spread their benefactions in the country around the monastery and that the money made by their industry was freely distributed to the poor. The true reason that the order was driven from the country, sald the speal was that it was feared that their money was used for political purposes. This was untrue. Premier Combes replied that the argu- ments in favor of the Carthusian monks could be reduced to the assertion that the order does good and that the decision against it would be painfully received by the country. His opinion was different. The Carthusian monks live under the same regime as the other orders and should be #reated in the same way. They should not be favored because they were rich. It has been urged that their Qe parture would cause a serious loss to the Department of Isere, in wh.ch thefr mon- astery is situated. But the Chamber must not be guided by considerations of material interest. It was asserted that the Carthusian monks did not meddle in politics. They have not meddled openly like the other orders. but they conducted an active propaganda against the repub- lie. The superior general of the Carthusian order signeu a recent pamphlet urging all citizens not to pay their taxes and to boy- cott the republican officials. The Chamber then by a vote of 338 to 321 refused to discuss the application for authorization and adjourned. oTUDENTS ADMIT THEIR POSITION Collegians Under Ban of Faculty Committee " Are Identified. BERKELEY, March 26.—From state- ments made to-day by the students di- rectly interested, Ralph Saeltzer, a senior; Robert Roos and W. A. E. Woods, junic s, are the men reported to President Wheel- er by the faculty students’ affairs com- mittee, with the recommendation that they be expelled from college, for cul- pability in the freshman-sophomore rush. The faculty committee has refused to make public the men's identity pending final determination of the case Ly Presi- dent Wheeler. The students themselves disclosed the secret and were busily en- gaged to-day In efforts to gain a modi- fication of the drastic recommendation of the investigating committee. Saeltzer's father was a visitor to the university this morning, and San S'ran- cisco friends of Roos are equally active in behalf of the young man. Woods is In a more gerfous position, because he has been attending college for some time as a probationer, the result .f former dif- ficulty in matters of university discipline. The whole question of the rush and the subsequent action of the facu.ty has caused bitter partisanships. A student faction still holds out for the right of the students to rush. So marked has become the feeling that Willlam Finley, the edi- tor of the Daily Californian, has 1Y:en =ingled out as a mark on account of some strong editorfals upholding the position of President Wheeler and the faculty. Yesterddy he recelved a threatening anonymous letter warning him to desist from heralding his position. He says ru- mors of tar and feathers have reached his ears. President Wheeler has given n. tntima- tion of his decision in the cases before him. ——ee ‘ Fuendling Cannot Be Found.

Subdivisions of General Cor- poration Are Practically Abolished. TRENTON, N. J., March 26.—Articles of merger were filed In the office of the Sec. of State to-day, merging the American Steel Hoop Company, Natlonal Steel Company and the Carnegle Com- pany in the National Steel Company, with a capitalization of $53.000000. The combined capital of the old companies amounted to $252,000,000. By this merger the new corporation will save more than $7000 each year in fees pald to the State of New Jersey. The Secretary of State’s offics received a telephone message this evening from the office of the United States Steel Cor- poration, saying that another charter would be flled by that company early to- morrow morning. . No information was given as to.the nature of the charter. PITTSBURG, Pa., March 26.—The only explanation. offered -in Pittsburg for the filing of articles of merger at Trenton fo- day by subsidiary companies of the Unit- ed States Steel Corporation is that the latter s about to carry out its plan of merging all its constituent companies, practically abolishing the subdivisions of the general -corporation and having the parent concern become the operating as well as the stockholding concern. In this new merger there appears to bhe evidence that the name of Carnegle would be obliterated from the business of the United States Steel Corporation. A care- ful examination of the matter, however, shows that while the Carregie Steel Com- pany is merged with the otbers, the Na- tional Steel Company under its new form becomes a subsidiary corporation to the Carnegie Company. There is a difference. in the Carnegle Steel Company and the Carnegie Company. The former is a Pennsylvania corporation and the latter a New Jersey corporation and the owning company of all of the stock of the v: rious subsidiary concerns form-a part of the Carnegie interests. No less an authority than President Schwab. of the general corporation said that the name Carnegie would never be eliminated from the United States Steel Corporation business and especially as far as it concerned Pittsburg. On the contrary, the Carnegte Company will con- trol in the future not only its old inter- ests, but the nterests of the American Steel Hoop and the National Steel com- panies. It has been doing this for the past year practieaily, and Schwab said that the merger was in connection with the new arrangement. TELEGRAPH NEWS. ALBANY, N Y.
