Dr. O'Hanlon performed the autopsy on Young's body. In his tes- timony to-day he said: My present opinion is not the opin- {ion I formerly expressed to Coroner { Brown.” Young and the defendant at the time | the report was made, he sald. 1In reply to Levy, however, he admitted that he ! had expressed the opinion that it was 1 a case of suicide even after he had heard the facts of the relations be- tween Miss Pattérson and Young. He said that he was influenced in his first decision that Young committed suicide | by black spots on the inside of the dead ! man’s fingers, which he belieted to be powder stains. This testimony came at the close of the day's proceedings in the trial. ‘When court opened, Miss Patterson appeared in a black and white checked dress, in direct contrast to the mourn ing costume which she had worn dur- ing previous davs of this and previous trials. Counsel for J. M.

POLIC RATES ARE INCREASED i NEW YORK, April 25.—An increase of 3 to 6 per cent in the premium rates for policies which do not confer upon | their holders a right to participate in the dividends of the company has been put icto effect by four of the largest life insurance companies in this country. The new rates of the different com- panies are essentially the same. On or- | dinary life policles the increase over | old rates is between 5 and 6 per cent. This is the largest increase. On limited payment life and endowment policies, the advance is between 3 and 5 per cent, the uge of the insured. The advance in rates follows com- plaints made by holders of participat- | ing policies that the difference between | the rates charged for a non-participat- | ing pulicy and those charged for a pol- icy that participated in the profits o the company have in some instances amounted to more than the dividends DEPOSED DIVINE - NOW RICH MINER | Special Dispatch to The Call. f LOS ANGELES, April 25.—Nineteen months ago Rex, H. W. Knickerbocker, for three years pastor of Trinity M. E. Church South, and later deposed for heresy, went to Goldfield. He engaged in mining and to-day has amassed a fortune of at least $100,000. “I went.in with a broken down horse, a busted buggy, a broken wrist and was broke myself,” he sald to-night, on his re- turn home to visit his family, “but I am solid now and on Easy street.” Knickerbocker went to a mining su- perintendent and begged go hard for work that he got it, though he had to use a pick with one hand. He took ! his place beside the hard-handed | toilers and kept at It* eleven days, { when a barrow of ore fell on him. Soon afterward he bought from two prospectors six claims for $§ and then | commenced to vprospect, soon selling out for $1400 and buying more. Now ! he owns thirty claims and has an in- terest in as many more, and is doing a large brokerage business besides his mining. SEWARD LOSES CABLE TERMINGS { Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, April 25.—General Greely, chief signal officer of the army, has decided that Seward shall not be the terminus of the Resurrection Bay ex- tension of the Government cable. This decision is the result of a misunder- standing between signal corps officials and John E. Ballaine, who has charge of the selling of Seward townsite lots. ‘When the Government proposed lo- cating the cable terminus at Seward, the matter of securing a site from Ballaine was taken up. He offered one lot free and asked $1500 for a sec- | ond lot, which the Government needed. | Major Glassford opposed this. | Bal- i laine wrote a sharp letter of criticism to General Greely. By telegraph, General Greely now sustains Major Glassford and directs that the termi- nus shall be established on Resur- rection Bay at some other point than Seward. 3 ————————— Edna May Gets Decree.

Colo., April 25.—Melting snow caused the L.as Animas River to ! become a torrent to-day, resulting in of considerable damage to the new Santa | Fe flll here, which is in danger of be- | ing washed away. Three hundred men iare riprapping the bank with ties | splked to railroad rails and trainloads of rock are being dumped along the . bank directly in front of the Cardenas Hotel and the new depot in course of | construction.

M., April 25.—The flood situation on the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad is practically un- changed to-night and it is regarded as very doubtful if any through trains can {be moved before late to-mcerrow, if then. If the present rain continues conditions will constantly grow worse. | All westbound trains are being held !at Albuquerque excepting the Califor- nia limited train, No. 3. which left Albuquerque at 9 p. m. last night and arrived here this evening, proceeding westwara. OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., April 25. Reports from the southern portion of the Territcry indicate that the storm last night was a destructive one. The bridge over Salt Fork of the Red River went out last night and the Rock Island bridge over Wold "River was partially wrecked. Rain and hail ¢ caused much damage to crops. Floods | are feared along the larger streams. MANY WASHOUTS ARE REPORTED of the most serious trouble caused by the rains in New Mexico and Arizona has shifted from between Blue Water and’'Grants, where an extensive wash- out in the track was repaired to-day, to Horace, eight miles east of Grants. Bridge No. 90, over the Rio San Jose, Jjust at the-west switch at Horace, is {in a very dangerous condition and may go out at any moment. Train No. 3 succeeded in creeping across the shaky structure last night and was laid up at | Grants until the break at Blue Water was repaired to-day. When No. 3 ar- rived at Gallup this evening there was general rejoicing among the marooned passengers on the eastbound trains, who made a break for their trains, | thinking the line was clear and they would be released from their long and | irksome captivity in Gallup. The dis- | appointment was great when they learned of the new break at Horace. | The Santa Fe Company is looking | after the comfort of its passengers and has issued meal checks to all holders of first-class tickets who have been de- layed twenty-four hours or longer. There has been no serious discomfort among the passengers so far: but, should the delay be long continued. there undoubtedly will be considerable suffering. Blue Water for several miles is built on a foundation of a lava formation and is in a generally soft condition. The present long continued rain has about put this stretch of track out of commission. The bridge at Horace is a pile trestle structure 104 feet long. All the men who have been repairing the washouts | at Blue Water and other points were ! rushed to Horace this afternoon and | will make every effort to brace up the bridge so as to restore traffic, tempor- arily at least. Should the rain continue it is very difficult to say when trains can be moved in either direction. The snow is very deep in the mountains and all streams are running bank full, in some places overflowing the lowlands. The ! last train to get through was the Cali- | fornia limited, which left Los Angeles | Saturday evening and which passed east from here at 4 p. m. Sunday. The | first train to be sent east after the damage is repaired will be the Cali- fornja limited, which left Los Angeles Sunday evening. 3 Late to-night it is reported that a | long stretch of track near Alaska, Just | east of Horace, is under water and that | fifteen telegraph poles are down eighty ;m“” west of Gallup. Another washout is ‘reported at Rio Perco, thirty-four miles west of. Albuquerque. —————— FILES SENSATIONAL SUIT TO RECOVER PROPERTY SALINAS, April 25.—What prom- ises to be a sensational suit was filed in the Superior Court of Monterey County to-day.

SMITH T0 HANG FOR HIS CRIVE “Guilty of murder in the first de- - gree”” was the verdict announced late last night by .the foreman of the jury that tried aged Joseph Smith, who killed Joseph McGowan. The jury de- liberated several hours before agreeing on a verdict. While the jury was out, Attorney Henry Ach, who defended Smith, went to Captain Burnett's office and notified the chief detective that a crowd of hoodlums was in the courtroom iready to “do up” the aged defendant. An in- vestigation was made of the affair, and the complaint proved groundless. Smith killed McGowan on November 26 in a terra cotta yard at 2966 Mission street. Smith had leased the yard to the McGowans, but had & cabin on the ground and lived there. The defendant and Willilam Beatty became involved in a quarrel over a trivial matter and McGowan came on the scene. Smith, by this time, had became enraged and swung a picket gate in the face of Me- Gowan. McGowan struck the aged man through the pickets. Smith excitedly went to his cabin and procured a shot- gun and shot McGowan dead while he was holding a conversation with a stranger. With his smoking weapon on his arm and one of the barrels stili loaded he started after Beatty. eral policemen were attracted by the shooting and they disarmed Smith and placéd him under arrest. Smith had been drinking heavily at the time of the shooting. The old man is regarded by neigh- bors as being very eccentric. He is said to be worth $100,000. e ——— DIES FROM UNKNOWN CAUSE.—A man, supposed to_be_Thomas was brougnt to_the Central shortly atter his arrival. of- died ficials will hold an autopsy to ascertain the cause of death.
