In a fit of despondency pretty Myrtle M. Hubbard, aged 23, turned on the gas in her room at 771 Ellis street Friday night. She was found dead yesterday morning. - The young woman was driven from her home Myrtle M. Hubbard Driven to Suicide| by Poverty and Loneliness. MYRTLE HUBBARD, A PRETTY YOUNG MILLINER RECENTLY FROM SE- ATTLE, WHO ENDED HER LIFE SOME TIME FRIDAY NIGHT BY GAS AS- PHYXIATION WHILE SUFFERING FROM DESPONDENCY. Despondent and lonely, pretty Myrtle M. Hubbard, aged 23 years, ended her life Friday night by inhaling illuminating gas. The young woman came to this city from Seattlé only three months ago and was employed as a milliner. She left her room at 771 Ellis street about 7 o'clock Friday night in. the company of H. Beachle, a prominent member of the Young Men's Christian Association, and returned late. Yesterday morning she was found dead in bed, with the apertures in her bedroom door plugged and the room filled with gas. The following note was found on a table in the room: “Good-by to one and all. I hope to leave this world to-night to those who can enjoy the beautiful, unjust na- ture. M. M. Hubbard.” A letter to the dead girl from a sister in Seaftle indicates that Myrtle was driven from home by family trouble. The letter is from a sister, Alice Hubbard, who complaing bitterly of the treatment accorded to the rest of the family by their stepmother. Little is known at 771 Ellis street about the girl. She was of a quiet disposition and seldom went out nights except in the company of Beachie. She was thought by those who knew her to be cheerful and contented. The few books in the room were works by popular humorists. The odor of escaping gas was first dis- covered by Charles Hardwick, proprietor of the house. He summoned Policemen Winters and Dowle. Winters made his way through a window into the girl's room and turned off the stopcock. Dr. R. H. Ashby was called, but the girl had been dead for several hours. She had removed the tip from the gas jet and plugged every aperture in the room before she lay down to await death. A curfous bit of irony was found in a “horoscope’” which had been sent to the girl tfom the Past. It declared that Jan- uary would be her lucky month. H. Beachie, the young man who was the last to see Miss Hubbard alive, sald last night: “I did not know Miss Hubbard very well. I met her about four weeks ago. It was a chance acquaintance. There was no engagement; We were just friends. I left her at her door at about 10:30 o’clock last night. She seemed in the best of spirits at the time. ““The only thing that struck me as be- ing peculiar about her conduct last night was that she sald ‘Good-by’ instead of “Good-night.” However, I scarcely noticed e ——————————— ADVERTISEMENTS.

' TKES POISON ~ THEN REPENTS ‘Whether Margaret Coleman, whese ca- reer on the stage has been passed under the name of Genevieve Kane, swallowed 1y#61 with intent to end a fit of inelan- choly into which she had been plunged, or whether she took the poison while sut- fering from nervous prostration, will probably never be known. Miss Coleman Wwag removed yesterday from the Hotel Hayston, formerly the Clarendon, at 543 Post street, Into the office of which she had struggled after swallowing the poi- son and called for help, to the Central | ®mergency Hospital, where after a des- perate struggle with death tne doctors succeeded In saving her. The veil of mystery that surrounds the poisoning of the beautiful girl cannot be penetrated. The victim, who gave the name Margaret Polk, persisted in saying that she was suffering from nervousness and had passed the last few nights with- out sleep. She further declares that she did not know what she was doing at the time she topk the lysol. From a chance remark dropped by the sufferer at the hospital and from the presence of friends at her bedside yester- day it is thought that the act might have been prompted after a quarrel which is supposed to have taken place at the Techau Tavern Friday evening. The young woman, with another woman and two male escorts, visited the tavern after going to the performance at the Alcazar Theater, and it was shortly after her re- turn to the hotel that the poison was swallowed. 5 A tall, well-dressed young woman, who might be taken for Miss Coleman's s ter, called at the hospital and spent eral hours by her bedside. She denied, however, that she was any relation to the girl, and added that she was merely a acquaintance who had met her at tl hotel. She further denled that she had accompanied Miss Coleman on the trip to- the tavern. oAb i The manager e hotel says Miss Coleman, or Miss Polk, as she is known at the caravansary, has a married sister named Mrs. A. P. Marston in San Jose, ‘who has recently been in this city. i Credit for the saving of the woman’s life belongs to Dr. Arthur T, McGinty, who brought her back from unconscious- ness and from the imminent grasp ‘of death. Later she was removed by her sister’s order to 1178 McAllister street. —_—— THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JANUARY 28, 1906. EMPERORS 10 BECOME WAR ALLIES Drinking to the Health New Grouping of Powers GERMANY TO TAKE ; LACE OF FRANCE lav Sovereign, in Toast, Refers to the King of Prussia as “My Brother and ' Very Dear Friend” ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 27.—A mew srouping of the powers of Europe, with Germany and Russia arrayed side by side in the closest friendship, and the mismatched alliance of the empire with republican France lagging in the rear, was forecasted by the words of Em- peror Nicholas at a gala luncheon at Twurkoe-Selo to-day in homor of Em- peror William’s birthday. 5 Rising to his feet before a brilliant company of Russian and German repre- Sentatives to propose a toast to the German Emperor, Emperor Nicholas lifted his glass and said slowly and distinctly, as if weighing every word: “T drink to the health of the Em- peror of Germany and the King of Prussia, my brother and very dear friend.” The phrases chosen were significant enough in themselves, the Emperor in previous years having proposed the health of the Emperor-King without the qudlifying expressions of “brother” and “friendship,” but, turning to Herr von Schoen, the German Embassador, who was standing at his right, the Em- peror grasped him by the hand and is reported to have said: “Brother—that's more than ally.” The stage of the momentous utter- ance was the great dinjng hall of the Alexander or “Little lace,” at Tsar- koe-Selo, where the Emperor has his winter residence. The Empress and Grand Duke Michael were present at the luncheon. £ The Emperor’s choice of the word “ally” ingicated that the defensive alliance with France is still considered binding, but evidently, as has been the gossip in diplo- matic circles here for some time, not a hair's breadth beyond the terms of the treaty providing for common action only in case France is not the aggressor, and there is no telling how soon it will be allowed to pass into desuetude. The present relations between Germany and Russia have been a matter of slow but steady growth, and signs of the new alignment have long been in the air. Since the outbreak of the Russo-Japanese war the warm personal friendship always existing between the two monarchs has been knit closer, and the many material tokens of friendship manifested by Ger- many during the war, compared with the lukewarm support to which France was limited by her new found entgnte with Great Britain, has combined to build up a“strong Germanophile sentiment in In- fluential quarters in St. Petersburg. At the same time much of the necessity to France of the Franco-Russlan alllance vanished when France clasped hands with Great Britain and practically assured hef- self of an ally in case of war. ASTORIA COLLECTOR UNDER INVESTIGATION Government Takes a Hand in Affairs of Customs Official. PORTLAND, Jan. 27.—As the result of a charge of official ‘misconduct flled against Walter L. Robb, Collector of Cus- toms at Astoria, and.several of his sub- ordinates, an investigation of the office has been made by order of the Secretary of the Treasury and the report of Special Agent Rice is now on the way to Wash- ington. While the integrity of the Col- lector is not questioned, it is alleged that politics has played too large a part in the conduct of his office, and it is also charged that the revenue launch Patrol has been used on a number of ‘occasions by the Collector and his chief deputy, Frank L. Parker, for private purposes and for the entertainment of friends and visitors. 2 DR. PIERCE’S REMEDIES.

Jan. 26— The pacification of the Baltic provinces 1s reaching the final stages, so far as the agrarian movement is concerned. Nearly 20 revolutionists have been shot, several hundred arrested and 5000 rifies captured. Generals Orloff, Meinhardt and Wendt are now operating in the Wender. dis- trict with 10,000 troops, completing a circle within which the revolutionists are being gathered. The generals have the names of the leaders of the revolutionists, who ‘will be tried by courtmartial when caught and either shot or imprisoned. The ma- jority of those already &xecuted were Lettish teachers of students. The revolutionists have stopped burn- ing bullaings, but they occasionally fire upon the troops. Among the burned cas»| tles is that of Baron Rosen Grosscup, which was destroyed with all its con- tents, servants who had been in the em- ploy of the Baron for twenty years as- sisting in the work of destruction. The troops are taking the strictest measures. On one occasion they sur- rounded a chureh in which fumeral ser- vices were progressing, arrested the revo- lutionary orators and shot one of them. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 21.—Beyond the fact that the revolt at Viadivostok is not subdued and that the mutinous sail- ors and soldlers are still standing by the guns at the Holy Innocents battery the ‘War Office had nothing to give out to-day regarding the situation of the fortress. The only further news available was a newspaper dispatch, dated January 26, stating that two squadrons of the Nerth- insk regiment of Cossacks had arrived and that many arrests had been made. The War Office officlals said that their own information practically duplicated yesterday's news dispatches. The American embassy has not received any report from the Consul at Viadivo- stok, and the other embassies are equally for | of the Emperor. uninformed. The Government has been advised from Irkutsk, Siberia, that a number of of- ficlals and employes & the general offices of the Trans-Baikal Railroad have been arrested on the charge of being implicated in abstracting from a Government muni- tion train 1000 revolvers and 10,000 cart- ridges and given them to the revolution- ists. A search was instituted for the cartridges, during which many of the rifles were recovered. The authorities also discovered nine bombs. A large number of summary searches and arrests have occurred of late at Tsarskoe-Selo. A store of a Jew drug- gist named Abramovich was ransacked, but no seizures were made. The police say the affair was unimportant and that they merely desired to keep an eye on all suspects in the immediate neighborhood ’ The plot at Moscow revealed by the ar- rest of the pseudo Princess Koslovska on January 18, however, was found to be really serfous to have wide ramifica- tions, intended to encompass the death of Governor General Doubassoff of Mos- cow and all his staff at the bléssing-of- the-water ceremony.
