It is presumed he either committed suicide by jumping off the train, which left Sausalito at 9:30 o'clock, or was threwn from the platform while rounding a curve. A buckskin purse containing $120 was found In the trousers pocket, while a card of the Vigilant saloon, north- west corner of East and Clay streets, way in a waistcoat pocket. On the back of the card was the name Ed Hillenbrand, Swiss Hotel, 621 Commercial street. The body is at the Morgue in S8an Ra- fael. The man was about 45 years of age, five feet two inches tall, wore a blue serge coat and waistcoat and dark brown trousers; had gray hair and a goatee, but no mustache.

FOL- LOWING THE LATE PONTIFF'S EXPRESSED WISH-THE NICHE IN WHICH THE BODY WILL LIE WILL CORRESPOND TO THAT WHEREIN REST THE MORTAL REMAINS OF POPE INNOCBNT III . | e | OME, July Leo to-day 21.—The body of Pope reposed in the cham- ber where his last death-struggle ! took place, which for the time | being has been transformed into { a2 mortuary chapel. Late this afternoon the body of Pope Leo was embalmed and clothed in full® pontifical robes, prepara- tory to the funeral obsequies. Through the night and early morning many simple emblems of grief had been displayed, but the main thoroughfares did not present a spectacle of general mourn- ing. No flags were half-masted and no buildings were shrouded jn crepe, as when the Imperial rulers pass away. The Corso and other busy genters presented the customary scenes of animation. It was In the poorer sections of the city that the evidences of griéf were more manifest. Entering the Borgeo district, | leading to the Vatican, the hum of ex- | citement attending the event was more | apparent. A steady stream of carriages, | bearing Cardinals and diplomats, swung | through the narrow lane calied the Via Borgeo, leading to the plazza of St. Peter's. | Coming now to the piazza of St. Peter's | a scene of vital Interest began to unfold | itself. There was not the slightest evi- dence of bustle or confusion. The vast expanse enclosed within the stately col- | onnade looked majestic in itg serenity. | Although groups of people hurried hither and thither, their presence was complete- | 1y lost in the immensity of the whole. NO SIGNS OF MOURNING. Nowhere about the Esplanade was there the slightest outward sign of mourning, neither on theychurch front nor on the columns of the doors of thé Vat- ican. The main entrance of the Vatican showed the chief evidence of activity. As the equipages drove up with distin- guished prelates the heavy iron chains continued to 1dop back the crowd, leaving a narrow aisle for the arriving digni- [ 4- !Continued From Page 1, Column 5. spititual food for the rest of their lives. Another distinguished prelate, who knelt [in the antechamber during the moving scenes that preceded Leo's death, sald this morning that he was thrilied by hear- |ing the Pontiffs volce repeating the formula of the confessiondl, “Mea culpa. mea maxima culpa”—“My gullt, my very | great guilt’— in tones of most beseeching humility. PATIENT IN SUFFERING. Leo's physicians say that the Pontift showed himself a marvel of patience and obedience. Dr, Lapponi said: “He followed our orders with perfect docllity and took the food we prescribed, though he often felt disgusted with all food. He helped to remove his own clothing whenever we wished to make an examination. He constantly excused himself for the trouble he was giving. ‘When-he crept out of bed two or three times to get books from the library, he answered our remonstrances by saying that he had finished his sleep and wished to amuse himself without troubling the weary watchers.” The body of Leo XIII lies to-night in the hall of the throne foom, a few steps from the room in which his death took place. The same vestments—the hood, the rochet and the white gown, which were put on yesterday—cover the form, which rests in semi-state, surrounded by the lighted candies, the noble guard and Franciscan penitentiaries. To-morrow morning the diplomatic body, the high dignitaries and the Roman aris- tocracy will enter the hall to pay their tributes of respect to all that remains of the Pope who won the respect and af- Workmen Are Preparing the Tamb o Receive the Body of Pope Leo XIII. . , taries. Back of the chains were massed a crowd of curfous sightseers. The of- ficial presence of the Italian soldiery was kept noticeably in the background. At the foot of the stone steps stood an of- ficer of Italian grenadliers in fatigue upi- form and cap, with.a smail detachment' of troops so broken into squads that they did not have the appearance of being in martial array. With themp were the Vat- ican and municipal troops in somber uni- forms, with broad chapeaux, some tipped with little blue pompoms. The ponderous doors of the Vatican were closed. The only means of ingress was a small open- ing which had been cut through the solid bronze bas reliefs. *Behind this tiny en- trance, only wide enough to admit a single person, stood a Swiss guard with fixed bayonet. As the Cardinals and diplomats came up they went to the tiny door, knocked and were admitted. Outside these favored few the exclusion was absolute. PREPARING LEO’S TOMB. Inside the magnificent church of St. Peter could be heard the sound of ham- mer and chisel already preparing Leo's témporary tomb. A massive wooden plat- form had been rolled into the basilica, reaching half way to the celling, to the left of the nave. Around this rough staging stood a crowd watching a half dozen workmen prepare the niche in which Leo’s coffin will soon rest. High above the niche they had driven into the solid magonry three enormous steel hooks from which the tackle will be operated to hoist the coffin into place. The resting place for the casket is a marble slab, about fifteen feef above the pavement, forming the upper casement of one of the massive doors. On either side are great marble cupids, while the light comes dimly from above from two domes sur- rounded by exquisite mosaics, one show- ing the apostles and saints and the other an angelic chorus.

In the afternoon the body will be arrayed in all the giory of the pontifical robes, the miter replacing the hood, and at sunsét It will be taken into the chapel of the sacrament of St. Peter's, where for three days the public will-be glven an opportunity of paying a last farewell. The intermeént will occur on Saturday evening. RECOGNITION OF DEATH. To-day was.notable for the impressive ceremonial of the recognition of the death of the Pope, which occurred in the morn- ing in the chamber in which he died. Thereafter only those were admitted who Wwere concerned in the embalming of the body, an overation which occupled six hours. Meantime the authoritiez of the Vatican proceeded with the preparations for the funeral and the conclave and the acknowledgment of the condolences that had been received, Among the latter was a notable message from the German Em- peror. Throughout the day the Vatican was surrounded by crowds, which increased toward night. Several hundreds entered St. Peter's at vespers and joined in prayers for the departed. Among those were many Itallan officers, whose troops shortly after sunset were marched from the Vatican back to their barracks. At no time had their services been needed. It is not the custom in Italy to wear the conventjonal emblems of mouraing, hence the crowd which, in consequence of the closing of many places of business, wan- dered the streets to-night, had more the appearance of an aimless holiday-making throng than one sorrowing for the death of the Pope., In nearly all of the churches, however, hundreds not often seen in places of de- votion flocked to vespers to say a hurried prayer. Atterward they loitered outside, ed and cdlled out their commands in strange contrast with thé solemn sur- roundings. The interior of the church was as yet undraped with mourning. The massive crimson hangings had been re- moved, bringing out' the ghastly white- ness of the marble nave. At the further end could be seen groups of priests, kneeling about the tomb of St. Peter, where scores of tapers.burn unceasingly. Only the usual masses were sald during the morning, as the ceremonials in con- nection with the death of the Pope have yet to be arranged. WORKMEN INVADE CHAPEL. Within the right nave still another preparation for the Pope's obsequies was going on. This was the preparation of the Chapel of the Holy Sacrament for re- ceiving his body after its removal from the Vatican. €ardinal Respighi, the Vi- car of Rome, had given orders for thése arrangements. Although Cardinal Oreglia has supreme command of the interests of the church, it s Cardinal Respighi who has been given immediate charge of the personal affairs relating to the dead Pope. Accordingly, the beautiful chapel was for the time being invaded by sweépers and cleaners, who poured buckets of water on the mosaic pavement and began scouring it. The front of the chapel is cut off from the main church by a massive trestle, through which the faithful can look upon the altar within. This is of solid brass, with heroic brass kneeling angels. Be- neath it is a space where Leo’s coffin will be deposited when it comes from the Vati- can. This space is 8o small that the foot of the casket will extend to the fron trel- lis. The purpose of this arrangement is to carry out the ancient ceremony by which the actual foot of the dead Pontiff will extend through the iron barriers, to permit the kneeling faithful to approach and kiss the last remnant of former papal.| authority through it. This morning people crowded about the grating and gazed at the preparations going on within.

CHORUS OF TOLLING BELLS. The quiet of the evening was broken by a chorus such as the world has seldom heard, On the stroke of 8 all of Rome's 400 churches commenced to toll bells for the’ passing of the soul of Leo XIIL In from the seven hills and from every quarter of the city which contained churches came the constant claug, until all was one vast reverberation. The harsh jingle of the smaller chapel bells, striking quickly and more often, was not drowned by the solemn strokes that came in mourning measure from the great dome of St. Peter's. It was as if a great fire raged and every bell in Rome were vying with every other in auxlety to warn the populace. Except in this com- mon motive and common sorrow il was an amaszing ..scord, which continued an hour and which will recur nightly until the ob- sequies are over: The viscera of Pope Leo, which to-day were placed in an earthen urn and pro- visionally deposited in the crypt of St. Peter's, was removed at midnight to a magnificent urn which, carried by Mon- signors Marzollini and Angeli, was taken in a Vatican carriage to the Church of St. Vincent Anastasius. The mysteriously picturesque scene was such as is possible only in Rome. The carriage was met at the door of the church by priests carrying torches, which flared in the breezes, the flickering light having a weird effect on the faces of those present. The viscera of all the Popes, except Pius IX, were deposited in this church, which was se- lected because it stands in the parish of the Quirinal, formerly the home of the UR ON SATURDAY MURDERER FOUND N PENITENTIARY Convict Who Headed Leavenworth Mutiny Located in Texas. — Must Now Answer for Lives Lost in Outbreak He Engineered. o RUST, Tex., July 2L—Arthur Hewitt, the convict who led the mutiny at the United States penitentiary at Leaven- worth, Kans., on November 3, 192 in which a number of persons were killed, has been located in Texas penitentiary, at | this place, where he is serving four years for horse theft and burglary committed at San Angelo, Tex. Hewitt is one of the few convitts engaged in the Leavenworth mutiny whose capture was not effected. He was admitted to the penitentiary here on December 22 under the name of Jim Cook. His identity as Arthur Hewitt has been | clearly established by officers of the Leavenwarth prison who came here for the purpose. The prisoner has confessed that he is Hewitt and says that he will never be taken back to Leayenworth dlive. It s understood that the United States authorities have requested Gov- ernor Lanham to pardon him in order that he may be returned to the scene of the murder and there tried for murder. The request will be granted. Hewitt was serving five years for larceny in the Leavenworth prison when the mutiny oc- curred. Popes. The viscera,of Pius IX was not taken there, as it was feared at that time that some untoward incident might take place during its transporation The peaceful manner in which the cere- ‘| mony was performed to-night is regarded as a fresh proof of the improved relations between the church and the state.

LONDON, July 21.—King Edward has commanded Irish Secretary Wyndham to express to Cardinal Logue, the bishop of Armagh and Primate of all Ireland, his Majesty's deep regret at the news of the death of the Pope, and to ask his Eminence to convey to the Sacred College his Majesty's sincere regrets. ST. PETERSBURG, July 21.—The Rus- sian press unanimously praises Pope Leo’s catholieity of view, his comprehen- sion of the historical mission of the pa- pacy, his grasp of social problems and | his untailing interest in everything fur- thering the peaceful progress of mankind. These, together with the late Pope's quick perception, strong will and temper- ate. politic disposition, justify, the papers add, givig him the title of “the great Pope.” THE HAGUE, July 2.-The Foreign Minister this morning personally expr ed the condolences of the Government to the Papal Charge d'Affaires. who notified | Queen Wilheimiha of the Pope's déatn The flags of the various legations were placed at ha!f mast. .

Some of these are said to be very injurious, and quite unreliable. Gm; Powders are one-fourth Rice Flour, one-fourth Soda, and one- half Cream of Tartar. These cost 13 cents per pound to manufacture, but you must pay fifty cents per Ib. for them, at retail. T And it takes $4.40 worth of this Baking Powder to make a $6.00 barrel of Flour into Tea Biscuits! “PRESTO " quick - flour needs no Baking Powder, and very little “ Shortening.” T Itis the finest flour milled in America, being rich in Gluten (muscle-former) with a comparatively low per cent- age of Starch (fat), while Baker’s Flour, for instance, is chiefly Starch, with little Gluten. “PRESTO"” quick-flour has the exact proportions of Cream Tartar, Soda, and Salt, that such flour needs, al- ready blended uniformly into it, by machinery". These chemicals are the purest made, mixed with the flour when they are fresh and strong, and then sealed up in air-tight packages that Grocers retail at 10c and 25¢. The very best flour, and the purest Cream of Tartar and Soda are thus sold in “PRESTO,” at the price of common flour, combined with Baking Powder, — why ? Because— “ PRESTO” carries only a ¢Miller’s profit on the whole product, instead of a Druggists profit on the Baking Powder", or 44 per cent. portion. Then, there’s the great labor saving, and the gertainty of results, to consider in its valuation. “PRESTO” makes the quickest, surest, lightest, whitest, and most economical of cakes, biscuits, and pastry.
