BAKERSFIELD, April 22.—“Well, doc- tor, if that's the case I reckon it's all up with me.” These were the words Al Hulse used to Dr. A. F.

The formal inqueést in ithe three cases | was to have been held this morning, but | it was postponed until Saturday at the request of the District Attorney. Attor- ney H. L. Packard, brother of the mur- dered Marshal, who will appear in the | prosecution, and Deputy District Attor- | ney Flournoy held an examination of a great number of witnesses in the Sheriff's office this afternoon and it developed that there were three men at the shoot- ing instead of two. The autopsy showed that Tibbet was killed by a 25-35 rifle bul- | let and in the muzzie of the 30-30 ritte car- rled by Marshal Packard there was found | a bullet of the same caliber, jammed in | the barrel, where it had entered when | shot from the house. This explains why | Packard did not use the rifle and confined ehooting to his pistol. Tt also con- | s the confession of Hulse that there | was a third gerson in the room. Several | women living in the vicinity of the joss- | house say that they saw a man in a| buggy driving away at full speed imme- diately after the ehooting. He was evi- dently very much excited and was whip- ping his horse into a run. The women do | not know the man, but it is thought that | it was Ingram. ar Fritz Stumpf, a saloon-keeper of this city, was arrested this afternoon, but was | rele to-night after being examined by the Sheriff. His business partner, | Charles Davis, was then arrested and is | now confined in jail. Stumpf told the of- | ficers that he and Davis knew McKinney vas in this city, that he visited him Sat- urday night and talked with him. Mc- | Kinney, he said, told him that he was in Kern City on Friday evening, went bold- ly into the Bee Hive restaurant and ate his supper without being recognized, | after which he came to Bakersfield and | took refuge with Hulse in the josshouse, | where the fatal battle occurred. This story is confirmed by Mrs. J. C. Turner, proprietress of the restaurant. She says the fugitive and Hulse were in the Bee Hive restaurant apout 9 o’clock or maybe a little later and asked for sup- per. There was no one in the restaurant | at the time except Mrs. Turner and ber | daughter, who waited upon them.

L T NEW YORK, April 22.—Baron Speck von Sternberg, Minister and Envoy of the German Emperor, was to-night the guest | of honor at a dinner tendered him by Ed- ward Uhl and Herman Ridder at the Manhattan Club. The health of the German Envoy was proposed by Herman Ridder of the New York Staats Zeitung. ‘When Baron von Sternberg rose to re- ply the guests all rose and cheered him heartily.

Women Made Strong and Happy Mothers. Catarrh of the Pelvie Organs Is a Frequent Cause of Barrenness. Pe-ru-na Eradicates Catarrh From the System. O the woman of ancient Israel not to become a mother was regarded as the greatest of earthly calami- ties. . To become a mother—more especial- ly the mother of a strong, healthy boy— was the height of glory for the faithful woman of the good old Bible days. Even { now, when maternity is not esteemed as of yore, the mother of ‘healthy children is an object of admiration and sometimes envy by her neighbors.

Hemphill is a clerk in one of the departments at Washington and had never before testified except in the examination trial of Caleb Powers. He aid not tell this at that time, and had refused to testify in former trials. J. B. Matthews, formerly Republican ! Assistant Secretary of State, continued his testimony begun on yesterday. He told | furtl of the breaking open of Powers’ | offic@ilind search for the assassin. The | sear continued no further than that room, and as soon as he and others there learned what had been done they began preparing to protect themselves. He did not see Howard in the hall and his rec- ollection was that Grant Roberts and Sam Shepherd, clerks in the Auditor’s office, were the only ones in the hall when he first went out. He said he had been of- fered immunity by the prosecution when Powers was on trial if he would testify that he led the assassin into and out of the Secretary of State’s office. Sam Shepherd and Grant Roberts, clerks, testified that they were the first | persons in the hallway after the shoot- ing. They did not see Howard there.

SAN RAFAEL, April 22.—The trial of the case of the People vs. Adolph Sylva was concluded in the Superior Court of Marin County this afternoon. Sylva, who is an ex-Mayor of Sausalito, was accused of having assaulted L. C. Pistolesi, City Attorney of Sausalito, with a deadly weapon on January 17. Pistolesl had a judgment against Sylva and in company Wwith Under Sheriff Litchenberg went to Sylva's home \to satisfy the judgment. They were me§ by Sylva and his sister, Miss Florence, the former with a rifle and the latter with a pistol, and were ordered to leave the premises. Sylva, it was alleged, forced Pistolesi to leave at the point of a rifle. Sylva upon the stand to-day testified that Pistolesi, not being an officer, but simply the attorney for the plaintiff, had no right to enter his house unless invited. “I told Pistolesi,” said Sylva, “to go or I would shoot him. I was only twenty-seven feet away from him at the time. He would not leave. I commanded him the second time to leave. The Sheriff then told Pistolesi that he had better leave and he did. The rifle was not loaded. When I ordered Pistolesi out of the house my sister pointed a pistol at the officer and ordered him to go, too.” The trial of the case lasted two days and when it was given to the jury they deliberated about thirty minutes and then rendered a verdict finding Sylva guilty of simple assault. * oy Library Building Plans Accepted.

You haven't enough ready cash to pay in full when the goods are degvered, aence you're compelled to buy “on time.” Yet you dislike trading in an out-and-out install- ment store. How are you going to get the easy - payment accommodation and still buy your goods in one of the big first-class stores? We offer you the way. We loan you the money, charging simply the regular banking rate of interest—six per cent. You go then to one of the big, first- class furniture stores where the stock is big and fresh, and where satisfaction is certain; and when you have made your selections pay your bill in good, hard cash. The installment stores charge you ten per cent above their cash prices for time. All you pay us is six per cent. The actual saving to you is FOUR PER CENT. For instance: If your purchases amount to $100.00 we will charge you $106.00—which is a six per cent advance; then you pay us $20.00 cash and the balance in monthly payments || amounting to $8.60 each month. If your pur- chases amount to $75.00 we will charge you $79.50; you make us a cash payment on this of $15.00 and pay the balance at the easy rate of $6.45 per month. Investigate this—it will pay you.
