A few days later Soeder induced Blaise to accompany him to the office of the insurance company.—He explained that it would be necessary for them to go | to the office to see that the policies | were properly issued. On this second | visit Soeder informed the | people that Blaise desir:d to change one of the $3000 policies, making it payable to Leon Soeder. The insurance people, suspecting nothing, allowed the change to be made as Soeder directed. The police say this evidence did not come from the in surance people, but from an outsider who knew of the taking out of the poli- cles. IMPORTANT EVIDENCE. Captain Martin refused to discuss this new and particularly valuable piece of evidence. The statement comes from the police, however, that it will do much toward the conviction of Soeder. Detective Thomas Gibson said last | night that he did not care whether he found any one who saw Soeder and Blaise together after they left the Mex- ican restaurant on Broadway. “I will { be ready next Wednesday, when the case comes up in the Police Court, to | produce enough evidence to convict the | accused man. I have several little points which I will spring that will be eye openers. 1 have enough eviden | | missing link, which we have sought so hard to get. After he had killed his broiher-in-law Soeder went to his room ; on Jackson street and changed the gray | suit he wore far the black one in which he appeared when he went down to the O. K. Saloon on Pacific street. He did ! not go right into the dance hall on his ! arrival at the saloon, but stood under | the archway which leads from the dance hail int> the saloon and nodded ! to Theresa King and another woman in the place. His object in doing this was | to furnish hiraself with an alibi, in the | event that he came under the suspicion of the police. He went out and then returned to the saloon again and talked | with one of the girls. His attempt to { form an alibi was cunningly planned, but we have encugh evidence to break t down. “I find that Blaise and his murderer did not approach from the north the place where his body was found, but walked up the hill on Taylor street from the south, timat is, from Broad- way. The man who dealt Blaise the death blow walked on his right side, and when they had reached the lonely spot under the cliff in the cut, the mur. derer stabbed the viciim in the neck.” CANNOT IDENTIFY SOEDER. The carmen employed on the Union- street line who claimed that they saw | a man resembling Blaise near Russian | Hill on the night of the murder, and the carmen who also saw a2 man whom ! they said resembled Soeder standing under a lamp post at the corner of | Union and Taylor streets, were exam- ined by the police yesterday. Their statements were discarded by the police as vague and useless. “There is no doubt,” said Gibson, | “that the men saw an excited German on the night of the murder. They do not know it was Blaise, and were mere- 1y led to believe that it was he because | he was a German and excited.” Charles S. Vose. who thought he saw a map resembling Soeder standing | under the gas lamp at the corner of Union and Taylor streets, to whom the 5 | excited German appealed for direction [to Jackson street, failed to identify Soeder in the City Prison when he was | brought face to face with him yester- day. Vose thought that there was some | resemblance between Soeder and the | man he saw under the gas light. but could net identify him positively. Another man named Bent was brought to the prison to identify | Soeder. His attempt was fruitless. Bent claimed that he once had a fight with are in possession of evi-‘ insurance | against Soeder to hang him without the | BATTLE SIGNS IN THE FIFTH Republican Forces Will Wage | an Aective Contest to Win | | Baek Congressional Distriet !ASPIRA.\'T IN THE FIELD | Gossip That Fusion With Demo- | [ erats Will Not Be Acceptable | to the Union Labor Leadersi There will be an interesting contest | this year in the Fifth Congressional Under the Ileadership of possession of the works for many | In the campaign of 1902 | fusion of the Union Labor and Demo keratic forces of the district was ef-| | fected Dby political strategy, and !

The Legislature, in| order to strengthen the Republican po ition in the Fourth District and mak Julius Kahn's campaign work some- | | what lighter, detached two of the solid | Republican Assembly districts from | the Fifth and placed them in the | Fourth Congressional District.

WARY OF FUSION. There are no indications at the pre: ent time that fusion propositions w be accepted hereafter by representa- tives of the Union Labor party, whe have been taught by object lessons in | practical politics that fusion gives the offices to the Demeocratic party and the glory to the workingmen. There is no lack of aspirants for the Republican nomination in the Fifth. The good crop of candidates signifies cenfildence in party success at the polls. Some time ago it was common rumor in political circles that Arthur G. Fi had the inside position in the race for the Republican nomination. His sub- | sequent appointment to the office ot Pestmaster eliminated his candidacy for Congress. CONGRESSIONAL ASPIRANTS. It is said that State Senator E. L Wolfe is an active aspirant for the favor of the convention. Charies M. Shortridge of Santa Clara is ambitious to serve the State in Congress, and it | would not surprise the politicians to see him in the fight. Colonel George H. Peppy, president of the Union League Club, has many friends in the district { who are advising hini to enter the con- | test for Republican leadership. The list of aspirants will increase, rather than diminish as the campaign progresses. | | San Mateo County may come forward : with a formidable candidate. That ! region of country between the metropo- | lis and San Jose is the home of states- men, and it is well understood that | Congress is ihe place for statesmen to shine. It is every-day talk in the dis- | trict that Mr. Wynn is a one-termer. The counties of Marin and Contra Costa comprise the Ninth Senatorial District under the apportionment-. of ; 1900. The district was formerly known as the Eleventh. This year it is Marin | County’s turn to name the Republican nominee. As a rule a good Republican nomination is equivalent to an election. Centra Costa had the privilege of se- | lecting the nominee at the last election | for State Senator and put forward Charles M. Belshaw. His Demoecratic : opponent was James H. Wilkins of Ma- | rin County. Belshaw received in M rin 1234 and in Contra Costa 208 votes, | !a total of 3317. Wilkins secured in| ! Marin 1296, and in Contra Costa 1616 | votes, a total of 3012. At the election four years prior to the Belshaw-Wil- | i kins contest General John H. Dickin- | son of Marin, Republican nominee, won | out. i Two Republican aspirants for the! favor of the Republican Convention are | ,now in the field, and of course both | hail from Marin County. K.

It does what whisk: or beer can- not do. Tt relieves the ne: tension. It timulates every fiber and puts into act- ive force every tissue of the bedy. It lifts one into the altitude of hope and kolds him there. It is a bridge that em- ables the weak and sickly to cross dan- gerous places. It feeds and nourishes the nerves, so that the blood corpuscles will be constantly revitalized. and the losses of the vital forces will be almost imperceptible. In other words. it will supply a sufficient quantity of life mat- ter to take the place of the waste. Instead of irritating the nerves and stomach it soothes and .strengthens them.

It is my opinion that the clergymen in this country could do no greater service to the cause of temperance than to ad- vocate the general use of my Paw Paw. for by its use drunkenness would be lessened and the morals and health of the community greatly improved.

Soeder was allowed to leave his dark cell yesterday to write a letter to his mother and his sister. He seemed worn and haggard. and the drawn lines on his face plainly showed the mental strain he has undergone since his in- carceration. He stated that he wanted to read the letter which he had refused to read Wednesday. He said that he was not afraid to let the police see it, and gave as a reason’for not reading it when it was given him with the other that his eyes were sore from bis long imprisonment in a dark cell. “The light so blinded me,” he said. “that it was impossible to read the second letter. The other contains nothing that I am afraid that the police will see.”” Soeder savs Detective Gibson is ‘hounding him to the gallows. —_—————————— Second Lane Lecture.
