The petition was granted by the court and the case will be heard next Mon- day morning. . In his brief Philbrook accuses Sec- retary White of more than twenty dif- ferent crimes.., It is alleged that E. ‘W. Newhall, president of the society, and Judge Coffey were principals with the secretary in the commission of the alleged ‘breaches of the law.

Brighton by a lone masked highwayman early this morning, made an ineffectual attempt td-night to storm the city jail and Iynch John Shockleigh, who was arrested during the. afternoon on information fur- nished by his roommate, Bert Pro- | thero. Prothero told the police that Shockleigh had confessed to the mur- | der upon his return home early this morning. BRockleigh denied -ll| knowledge of the crime when arrest- MOB | i i tory explanation of his whereabouts _?ld[he time the murder was commit- ed. Conductor Brighton died at the hos- pital to-night. The news that the highwayman had | been captured spread with startling ra- pidity throughout the city and within half an hour fully 100 persons, mostly fellow employes of the murdered men, had gathered in front of the jail, cry- ing loudly for the prisoner. The. action | of the crowd became so threatening that every available patrolman and deputy sheriff was held at the station to protect the prisoner in case an at. | tempt was made to storm the jail. Shortly before 6 o’clock a number of the men forced their way into the jail- | yard from the rear and were prepar- ing to batter down the door, when they were discovered by the officers and driven away. | “We want that man yelled crowd. ‘“‘He belongs to us and we are going to have ‘him!

Testimony was taken which showed the eastbound freight train had orders to pass the passenger train at Willard. No inquiry as to the responsibility of the passgnger crew was made, on account of the inability of Engineer Benjamin and Conductor Nagle to be present. The engineer is suffering from nervous prostration at his home in Kansas City and the con- ductor is in a hospital here. As soon as these witnesses can be present, the inquiry will be resumed. It is announced that whoever is re- sponsible for the wreck will be held on a charge of manslaughter. It was announced at the inquest to- day that the train dispatchers in this city learned that one train had left Maple Hill and the other had left ‘Willard. Knowing that no human power could prevent a collision, they immediately ordered out the wreck- ers. They also notified the Maple Hill doctors to get ready for service. The doctors received this notice eight minutes before °‘the *“wreck occurred and reached the scene of the acci- dent thirty minutes later. Dr. Silver- thorne, the Coroner, is a surgeon and operates a hospital at McFarland for the Rock Island road. Engineer, Raridan of the freight train, which collided with the passen:- ger, testified that Benjamin had told him immediately after the accident that he had no orders to meet the freight. Raridan also reported a con- versation he had with Conductor Nagle in the hospital. Nagle said to him: * “Engineer Benjamin may as well come here and own up to the truth.

LOUIS, Jan. 7.—Apparently conscience-stricken and his mind aflame with religious ardor, William ‘Wilson, aged 32, a Salvation Army recruit, walked intg police headquar- ters to-day and confessed that on July 5, 1901, he had set fire to the Occiden- tal Hotel In Forsythe, Rosebud Coun- ty, Montana, which resulted in the death of onme man and injury to twenty. Wilson declared that another man is in the penitentiary serving a sen- tence for the deed and that it is to ease his own conscience and give this man his freedom that he has surren- dered. Wilson said that he did not fire the hotel intentionally, but that he accidentally dropped a burning match in the hallway and when he saw the flames spring up he ran off instead of raising an alarm. He fle straight to St. Louis and later learned that another man had been sentenced to the penitentiary on circumstantial evidence. Recently, while attending a Salvation Army meeting Wilson broke down and confessed to an army cap- tain. e HARRIMAN PRESIDENT OF THE UNION PACIFIC His Acceptance of Successorship to Burt I¢ Believed to Be Only Temporary.

FINDS ANIMAL NEW 10 SCIENCE Professor Johm (. Merriam Discovers Remains of a Huge Lizard That Swam the Seas e gt COMES FROM SHASTA PITS Exposes Form of Prehistorie Beast After a Long Period of Chiseling With Maehine PR SIS Berkeley Office San Franciscod Call, 2148 Center Street, Jan. 7. The Shasta fossil beds, those lime- stone areas in Shasta County that have been so prolific in the production of the remains of prehistoric extinct animals, ‘have yielded still another specimen new to the scientific world and the zoological kingdom. It was discovered by John C. Merriam, professor of palaentology at the University of California, who has just announced it after two years of labor, having kept it a secret until he was certain of his premises. The animal appears to have been of a family entirely unknown to palaeon- tologists, and has been named the Tha- lattosaurus. It is a huge sea lizard and is estimated to have been at least seven feet long. Originally it was a shore form, but became after a long period a marine animal. The specimen was found in the Shasta limestone pits not 100 feet from the spot where the Shastasaurus, the most perfect of its kind in the world, was discovered two years ago by the university scientists. It is supposed to have been derived from the same group of ancestors as the ichthyosaurus. It differs in a number of ways, however, from the genus ichthyosaurus, but more especially in the structure of the teeth and the roof of the mouth. After being brought to Berkeley the specimen was permitted to lie in the university museum for a year or more, there being no instruments sufficiently delicate to chisel out the remains with- out injury. A high-power dental en- gine was recently received, however, and the work was carried on until the whole form of the animal was exposed. Professor Merriam says the remains represent not only a new species, a new family and a new genus, but a new or- der, a statement the importance of which will be appreciated by scientists as a very considerable one. He belleves that it will also be valuable in assist- ing scientists in other parts of the world to clear up some mysteries that now prevail in palaeontological science, particularly in regard to a number of specimens now- in museums that they | are unable to classify and which may be found to belong to this newly dis- covered group. —_—— THREE PERSONS INJURED ON SUTTER-STREET CAR Mrs. Sarah Beers Badly Cut on Tem- ple and Suffers Severe Nervous Shock.

In keeping with her life simple . vices were held to-day at the funera of Mme. Emanuel Marte Paget. A large number of her friends gathered at the home of the revered woman, so long intimately associated with the Town and Gown of Berkeley, and spoke their final farewell. They brought flow ers—delicate messages of love—and spread them upon the bier of their friend, last tokens of their esteem and reverence *for a good woman. The services began at 10:30 o’clock and were conducted by Rev. Joseph Worcester, pastor of the Swedenborgian church of San Francisco, the most in timate friend of the late Professor and Mme. Paget. The minister spoke of the influence for good that had been exerted by the lives of his friends, an influence that will not pass away with them, but that will live on. This was as much due to the example of blind devotion that -she had set for her hus- band and he for his wife as to the kind- liness and sympathy and generosity with which both had received their friends. The pallbearers were Professor Wil llam Carey Jones, Frank M. Wilson, S. Bunnell and Professor Gustav Fau- cheux. The remains were borne to Mountain View Cemetery, where a final brief service was held, and were then given to cremation. Among the friends of Mme. Paget present at the services were President and Mrs. Benjamin Ide Wheeler, Pro fessor and Mrs. Cornelius B. Bradley, Professor and Mrs. Frank Soule, Pro- fessor and.M, Willlam Carey Jones Professor and Mrs. W. A. Merrill, Pro fessor and Mrs. Frederick Slate, Pro fessor and Mrs. George H. Howison, Professor and Mrs. C. H. Howard, Pro- fessor and Mrs. Irving Stringham, Pro- fessor and Mrs. George C. Edwards, Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Bunnell, Carlos Bransby, Mr. and Mrs. Marius Spinello Mrs. J. E. Hathaway, Mr. and Mrs Frank M. Wilson, Mrs. Leon J. Rich- ardson, Warren Wilkinson, Mrs. A. J Ralston. Mrs. William McKenzie, Mrs Harley Leete, Mrs. Clinton Day, Louis de F. Bartlett and almost the entire membership of the Town and Gown Club, of which Mme. Paget was the founder and treasurer. After the death of Professor his widow addressed a let to the Board of Regents in which she ex | pressed her desire to give to the un! veraity her husband’s library. In order to make sure that the university would get the library she also made provisien for the gift in her will. The gift was promptly accepted and to-day the let ter accompanying it was published at the universitv. It reads as follows To the Regents of tha University of Callfor nia, Berkeley, Cal.— memory of my husband, ser- Paget The best and b of his life were wpent at the umg. there. his interests centerad ¢his gift should take e once, although it may not be possibie to obtain full title to the Books u: are disirtbuted out of Professor Paget by order of court.
