BERKELEY, Nov. 19.—The mystery at- tending the strange disappearance of Elizabeth Blossom, who left her bedroom while delirious at 3 o'clock Saturday morning, escaping from her nurse, was | cleared up to-day When the police were | informed that Miss Blossom had been | sheltered for twenty-four hours in 1hei home of G. C. Purcell, a raliroad man re- siding at 728 Allston way. The girl had not regained her senses this morning when Detective Jamison and | Dr. McCleave went in a carriage to take | charge of and return her to the Blossom | home, and, still delirious, she fled when the friends who sought her came into the | room. She was not captured until after | a short, swift chase, and then was con- veyed in haste to her motner's home on Ridge road. A score or more of friends had gathered there, prepared to besin ! anew the search for the missing girl | | | | i | Many were on horseback, ready to hunt in the hills where the young woman was supposed to have hidden herself.

She was tever | a patient in a precarious condition when she | climbed from her room in the second | story of the Blossom house shortly after midnight vesterday, and for four hours was exposed to the chill and mist of the raw air, as she groped her way through | Berkeiey streets, dressed only in a thin | ht robe, an underskirt, and a pair of | ney slippers. It is feared that the ex- perience she has undergone will result | fatally.

She had been given up for dead, and the re- | action from despair proved too much for the members of the family. The mother fainted, and the two sisters of Miss Blos- som were almost prostrated.

She is de- | lirious now, and will be watched carefully | | by trained nurses until recovery is gained, | or death ctaims her. e ———— ELLIS LIKES AMERICA. BERKELEY, Nov. 19. — Fascinated { | with the racing game in America, Wil- liam C. Ellis, the Australian turfman, | who so narrowly escaped a horrible death at the hands of Milton Andrews | a month ago, announced at the Roose- | velt Hospital to-day that he had de- | cided to remain here during the re- his family permanently to America, if Mrs. Ellis’ consent to the journey can be obtained. Ellis says with a laugh that the “horse game” heré is infinitely superior the sport as Australians know it and, having demonstrated this import- ant point to his entire satisfaction dur- ing the last fortnight, the Australian turfman has made up his mind to “stop in this couniry the rest of his days.” Ellis has been informed that one George Ellis, living in Massachusetts, who has read of Ellis’ experience with Milton Andrews here, believes that Wil- iiam Ellis is & near relative and pos- siblg a brother. The Massachusetts EIME left Australia several years ago for America. He had a brother, Wil-, liam Ellis, and fancies the Ellis who is | i now in Berkeley may be the same man.

Deck, a con- duetor In the emplov of the Oakland Traction Company, now lies dangerously wounded at the home of his parents, at | That the boy was not instantly killed was due to the fact | that the bullet was deflected by the bones of his right shoulder, and instead of penetrating to a vital spot ranged around the ribs and lodged near the spine. Deck, with two companions, Frank and Harry McCloy, sons of Henry McCloy of | Thirty-fitth street, was passing near | Gier's Hall, who lives at 791 Thirty- seventh street, shortly after 3 o'clock thik | afternoon, when withouf warning two shots rang out in & shed at the rear of the Goertz house. With a scream of pain, Deck fell to the ground, with blood pouring from a bullet holé in his shoulder. As he lay on the ground two more shots were fired, one of the bullets striking a telephone pole near where Deck had fallen and the othber burying itself in the house of Edward T. Leiter, a con- tractor, who resides at 3615 West street. By this time Deck's companions were shouting to the hidden pistol wielder to cease firing, and the. shooting suddenly ceased. The two boys secured assist- ance, the wounded boy was taken home and Dr. J. L. Milton was called to attend him. The doctor found that the bullet had been deflected from a direct line by the bones of the shoulder, and had lodged near the spine. Had it not been for the change in the course of the bullet, the boy would have been fatally wounded. The case was reported to the police and an investigation was made by Detective Jyte. All members of the Goertz family denied any knowledge of the shooting, and the identity of the guilty party has not yet been learned.

The work- men who were so strangely laid away were John Forkin and Joseph Gaseda, two foreign laborers, who met a horrible death a week ago. They were in a pit near a cupola containing 80,000 pounds of molten steel. A plug gave away and the fiery fluid poured from the cupola.and overwhelmed them. The men were com- pletely incinerated, and not a trace of them or their clothing was left. The Midvale Steel Company was averse to selling the steel or using it, and it was decided to bury it with the rites of the church to which the men had be- longed.. Accordingly, the forty-ton ingot, al in shape, twenty-eight feet long, six feet wide and five feet through, was moved last week by a traveling crane to the rear of the machine shop, where a grave ten feet deep had been made. The great mass of metal was laid in the hole A great crowd sought admission to the works to-day, but only the two sisters of Gaseda, who depended upon him for support, and about 100 workmen, who were gn Sunday duty, were permitted to attend the services along with the offi- clals of the company. Among the officials was President Charles Harrah. All heads were bared and flags were lowered to half-staff while two priests conducted the services. After the sisters of Gaseda had been led away the great ingot was covered with earth and . the funeral party dis- persed. The graye of the men will be appropriately marked by the company.

Rockefeller to-day spoke en- | tertainingly in the Fifth Avenue Baptist | Church vestibule of cheese, wigs and; health, giving one of the closest insights of his character that has been had for a long time. It was Rockefeller's first appearance at the session of the cele- brated Bible class since his return from | Cleveland. ‘When the “millionaire enfered the church with Dr. Eaton he was not rec- ognized at once. He wore the wig which has induced so many newspaper stories and cartoons throughout the country and this caused him to appear much younger. Before the class adjourned | Rockefeller reached the vestibule, but he | could not escape all the members. A half dozen persons simultaneously told | Rockefeller how well he was looking, | and he seemed intensely pleased, which started him on a general chat. “I guess T do look good,” he said, “and 1 do not remember when I felt sb well.” “What is the elixir of youth you use? one of the young men asked. “It is one vou will all have access to, the magnate replied. “Open air and ex- ercise, joined with slow eating. You see, when you have only to eat, the proper | thing is not to eat very much, but to' chew it well and not to let anything! worry you. Your food does you good | then. For a number of years, for in-| stance, I held the impression that cheese was not excellent food. But now, when I think of all the cheese 1 missed, I feel sad, for I am extremely fond of it.

B ¥ SENATOR MORGAN AGAINST PRESIDENT Opposes Administration’s So- lution of Rail Rate Problem. Special Dispateh to The Call. WASHINGTON, Nov. 19—Senator Mor- gan of Alabama, the most outspoken member of Congress, opposes the latest proposal by the administration for the solution of the problem of Federal regu- lation of raflroad rates. This proposal was made by Senator Knox of Pennsyl- vania in a speech delivered at Pittsburg | on November 3. Senator Knox's ideas have been accepted by the administration and will be embodied in the annual message which the President will send to Congress on December 5. It is a compromise and the administration’s admirers are already proclaiming that the railroad rate fight is as good as won. But an answer to Sen. ator Morgan's views of Senator Knox's suggestion probably will be necessary be- fore the Senate and House will be satis- fled that the proposal which is to be rec- ommended by Mr. Roosevelt will meet the requirements of the situation. “Have you examined the speech of Sen- ator Knox at Pittsburg on November 3, in which he vindicates the President's policy as to rallroad rate legislation?” Senator Morgan was asked. He replied: Yes, I bave examined it with some care, but i am in doubt whether Mr. Knox's purpose Is to vindicate the President's policy or .to induce him to change It. or to satisfy the raflroads that nothing of practical importance to them or the people can cver result from its enact- ment into a law of Congrees. His argument is well adapted to either pu pose. But Mr. Knox undertakes to state and de- fend the position of the President. In his open- ing paragraph he states the President's atti- tude thus: ‘‘The President believes the power to pass upon the reasonableness of a challenged railroad rate or practice should be lodged in some tribunal in which can be also comstitu- tionally cast the power to fix a reasonable rate or practice in lieu of the rate found by it to be unteasonable, and that the rate so fixed should become as nearly immediately operative s possible.” He states the President's view as he sees it and then s to detend it, or rather to reconcile it to the raflroads. My most earnest objection to his proposed law is that it dJe- stroys the right of trial by jury in suits or un complaints that involve the question.of the jus- tice and reasonableness of railroad rates.
