MISS FLATLEY TALKS. | The trunk which Soeder had stored ! vith Michael Risso of 4280 Mission | street when searched yesterday was | found to be empty. It was taken to! | the property room of the polféé de- | partment.

When asked about the insurancéson the life of Blaise Soeder became ssjlent and refused to talk. He did npt seem worried and smiled the while he “was being interviewed. He still.adheres to | all hig former statements that ‘have not | been proven false. What he has said| in regard to his connectionwith [the murder has been generally upset and proven untrue by the evidence obtained | by the police. \ Miss Catherine Flatley made the fol-! wing statement yesterday: 1 n ht p over the appearsnce of ivith this horrible af. ything to do wi S x manghs. -~ Prior to his 1 had been, keeping com- some time.

She also refused | to say anything about the statement that Soeder made to her that he would have $7000 in about three weeks if she would marry him. Miss Flatley resides with her parents at 15 Marshall street, off the Mission road, near St. Mary’s College. She says that the connection of her name with | the affair has caused her to be the obs ject of the gaze of the whble Mission. cape the notoriety which this incident has brought her. Miss Flatley was formerly employed | by the Pacific States Telephone Com- pany as an operator, but left them a | shert time ago to take a position in a store, the name and —ature of which she refuses to divulge. { The young lady who has gained so much notoriety comes of an honest and hard-working family.

We had a late supper that night, because my husbamd was not working and had besen busy papering the rooms upstalrs. It was after half past nine when we sat down to supper. Up to that time we had not heard either of the men return.

These friends were two who had come over on the steamer witl' he and Soeder. It ‘was about half past’seven when Sqeder left the house and said that he was going to look for Blaise. 1 knew nothing more until I heard of the murder and Soeder's arrest. Mrs. Nieblas told how she had made the bed-after Soeder had gome out and all but his coat and ves hi tol as i { found that it bore evidence of having been lain in. She was unable to state whether Soeder had come in until late, as she says that she anfl her husband went to'sleep about 11 o'clock. Mrs. Nieblas andher ‘hushand ‘said that, Blaise was a very quiet young man, and although he could not speak English . always® greeted her with a pleasant’ “Good morning,” evening,” which phrases ne had learned ‘“He used: to.come and go all day long,” she said, “though most of the time he was in the company of his prother-in-law, S¢eder. Soeder was also quiet and sel- dom had a pleasant word to say. Not that he said -anything that was not pleasant, but he ‘kept very much to himself. He oftén ‘asked-me if any in- surance men had calléd. A short time back he told me that he was going to | take out an insurance policy for Blaise. ‘There were a dozen insurance men callel at different times.- He used to sit at the window. and watch for them, apparently very anxiously.

After the man had gone Soeder came out of his room and wanted to know if the man who had called asked for either him or Blaise. It was then that my husband remem- bered his name and told Soeder that he was very sorry that he had sent the insurance man ay. After that Soceder wrote his name and Blaise's on the front door, with an appendage 2s to the hour he expected to be home. After L> had secured the insurance policy he removed the paper from the door and seemed to be in an easler frame of mind. I never knew in whose name the policy was made, nor the amount that it called for.” ATTORNEY INDIGNANT. Alexander Campbell, who, with Ed- ward S.

Moritz Meienberg of 4800 Mission street was well acquainted with Blaise and also with the man now accused of murdering him. > Meienberg stated that he became aequainted with both persons through his nieces, Miss Annie Meiers.. Ac- cording to his statement Miss Meiers and her friend, Miss Annie Staub, were passengers on the steamer La Tour- aine coming to America from Ger- many. and there made the acquaint- dnce of Soeder and Blaise, ‘who were fellow passengers. During the voy- age the four became very friendly and when they parted in New York Miss | Meiers gave Soeder the address of her | future home in San Francisco and | asked him to call and see her. On the vovage across the Atlantio | Soeder told Miss Meiers that he had !lived for sixteen years in California, ! and that he had left San Francisco city. | bring out his brother-in-law to Cali- | fornia, and had paid- the expenses of the trip himself. During the pas-; sage Soeder opened his watch and in the inside lid was a photograph-qf a’ young woman whom he saild he in- tended to marry when he fot back to San Francisco. . 'This photograph, Miss’ Mejers claims, is the exact likeness. of Miss Catherine Flatley. s On the steamer Soeder was Jjolly and bright and made friends right and left with everybody. As he was not seasick he was ready to. ‘cheer up those who ‘were, and became one of the most pepular mén on the ship. CALLS-ON MEIENBERG. Blajse told Miss Meiers that he had left a wife and three/children in Ger- many and, that Soeder had come to Germany for the express purpose of bringing him out to this country, and had promised him that he could make a lot of money up in Alaska and that they. were both going up there, and S0 soon as they were able they were going to send for his family to come’ out. Blaise's ideas of geography were limited so far. as Alaska ‘was con- cerned, and he only had a Vague idea of where they were going. The two men arrived here about foyr weeks ago and at once called on Miss Meiers and had made frequent visits to her since that-time, ‘While Soeder was aiways bright and | cheerful, Blaise on the contrary seemed very quiet and had little to say, but always entered into the general con- | vérsation, speaking only German, as {Me could not say a word in English, Melenbérg said.

President’'s Panama Policy Is At- - tacked and Lefended. WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.—Panama again to-day was the prineipal sub- Ject of consideration in the Senate, and, as on yesterday, the debate was spirited. Carmack opened the pro- ceedings with a set speech in criticlsm ONE LITTLE MICROBE . PREVENTS A HANGING Death of Wounded Man Is Hastened by Bacillus and Degree of Mur- der is Lessened. OMAHA, Nebr.,, Jan. 13.—One tiny bacillus with a long name has inter- vened between Henry Foster and the hangman’s noose. The microbe found its way into the wound of Thomas Gentleman of -Fremont, whom Foster shot. Death followed as a matter of course, for the bacillus is deagly and is known to science as the “Bacillus dip- locapulatus-aerogenes.” The hospital surgeons at Fremont declared that Gentleman had one L — in the Venezuelan difficulty. No Presi- dent in our history had stood more stanchly for the Monroe doctrine. Spooner also gave attention to the charges ‘of disobedience of law by the President. As the author of the Spooner act, the speaker said, he wish- ed to express the opinion that the law had not been violated by what the President had done. The law, he said, recognized the supériority of the Pan- ‘ama route because it was short and because it was susceptible of being made a sea level canal bt e INDIANS ARE DECEIVED. Carmack contended that the Presi- dent had not contented himself with recognition of Panama, but had inter- vened. ‘“His acts were not simply offensive, not simply a cause for war, but they were war,” he said. “As a matter of fact there never was any insurrection on the isthmus. They speak of the rising as the act of one man. Very true, and that oné man was the Presi- dent of the United States.” President Roosevelt, he said, lost the power of reasoning and his moral sense when he became involved in ac- tion, and he exclaimed: 5 “Into wha$ difficulties may we not be led by is headlong man?
