June 25, 1906 Miscreant Es"apes Death by | Efforts Bemg Made in Behalt of JERBME'S BOOM GAING STRENGTH New York District At- _torney May Head State Ticket. Tammany Men Enthu- siastic Over Plan té Nominate Him. SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL. NEW YORK, June 13.—Jerome's gub- ernatorial boom was discussed by Dem- ocratic politicians today, to the exclu- sion of all other subjects. A good many Tammany men were found who de- clared that the District Attorney ought to be nominated. The statement of John A. Henneberry, who managed both of Jerome's campaiges for District At- torney, thag Jerome was willing to ac- cept a nomination by the regular Demo- cratic convention was regarded as sig- nificant, following Mayor McClellan’s complimentary reference to the District Attorney. Not that any one is sur- prised to hear that Jerome is willing to accept. Everybody in politics knows that the District Attorney would like nothing better than to be the standard- bearer of the Democracy in a State fight. But Henneberry’s statement is the first official declaration that has been made on the subject. Tammany men who were alarmed by the Hearst boom Spuxe up for Jerome today with much enthusiasm. It was pointed out last week that the Tam- many men in the McClellan administra- tion would be likely to play Jerome to beat Hearst. In view of recent develop- ments this seems more probable than, ever. Tammany Leader Murphy said he had received no word as to the probable date of the meeting of the Democratic State committee. The Belmont press bureau announced June 27 as the prob- able date. Murphy said this was news to him. William R. Hearst, having decided not to risk a summer campaign, has returned to California to await devel- opments. It is now said that the Hearst State convention will not be held until September. GOV. PATTISON * OF OHIO GOES TO FINAL REST CINCINNATI, June 18.—John M. Pat- tison, Governor of Ohio, died at his home in Milford, a suburb of this city, at 4:20 o'clock this afternoon. He passed a good night, and there was no report of any serious change during the day. During the afternoon the news from his home was considered favorable, and the announcement of death came without warning. The oath of office was administered to Lieutenant Governor Andrew L. Har- ris at Eaton tonight by Judge Fisher of the Common Pleas{Bench. That the death of N\e Governor was entirely unexpected was evident when it is remembered that in a contst over the requisition of Ellsworth WLiverpool in the courts in this city today both of the Governor's physiclans appeared to testify that his condition was such that he was able to transact official business. His private secretary, L. B. Houck, also testified to his good condition, explain- inz that he recently had gona over much business with him. Although there has been for months an expressed fear that Govarror Farti- s0a would not be able to retura to his office at Columbus, the cheerful staie- ments from his sickroom tended ‘o create a belief that any fatal outcome of his prolonged sickness would be long deferred. Not at any time a man of powerful physique, Governor Pattison entered upon the responsibilities of his office in a somewhat weakened condition, the strain of the political campaign having so worn on him that a trip to the South was taken in November and December in the hope of regaining hedlth. How- ever, when he returned he was still weak, and under the advice of his phy- sicians his part of the inauguration ceremonies was gone through with the utmost care. A glass covering was pro- vided for the reviewing stand that he might be protected from the stormy January winds, and through that he re- Viewed one of the most elaborate pa- rades that has ever graced the inaug- uration of any Ohio Governor. He then went to his home, from which he only emerged for a few short walks until he came to this city on a special train during the night of April 5. He continued to oversee the work of his office, and through his private sec- retary, Louis B. Houck, who had been his running mate on the Democratic ticket, transacted considerable public business even when unable to arise from his bed. As soon as his condition permitted he was brought to Cincin- nati, spending several weeks in Christ Hospital, and a week ago he was taken to his country home at Milford. He had been reported as steadily gaining since then, although & report was current last week that he had suffered a re- lapse. Governor Pattison was elected on the Democratic ticket. Andrew L. Harris, Lieutenant Gov- ernor, who under the constitution be- comes Governor during the balance of the term for which Pattison was elect- ed, is a Republican. He was born in Butler County, Ohio, November 17, 1835. He graduated at Miami University at Oxford, Ohio, with the class of 1860 and the following year entered the Union, army, being mustered out as a brigadier general by brevet.

Only Hope_c)} Assistance Now Rests With Sec- ~tetary Shaw. SPECIaL DISPATCH TO THE CALL. CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING, WASHINGTON, June 18.—The - San Francisco relief committee conferred today with the finance committee of the Senate regarding the proposed de- posit of $10,000,000 of Government funds in the national banks of that city. No conclusion was reached. ‘he finance committee will tomorrow hear Secretary Shaw's views on the question and an effort will be made to formu- late some plan by which the Secretary of the Treasury, without legislation by Congress, may grant in some form the desired relief. It was made apparent today that not one of the propositions for Congres- sional assistance which have been ad- vanced meets with favor among Sena- tors generally. Members of the finance committee, both Republicans and Democrats, hope that a satisfac- tory arrangement be made with the Treasury Department for the de- posit of Federal funds, but they are plainly opposed to any plan which con- templates an autho tion of Congress. is anxious to grant every assistance in | his power, but he is understood to be unwilling to take any extraordinary step without either the authorization of Congress or the tacit approval of its leading membeg. The finance com- mittee will talk over the problem with Shaw and see whether anything can be done. At the hearing today Judge W. W. Morrow, W. J. Bartnett and Senators Perkins and Flint presented argu- ment in favor of the proposition for a ten-year deposit of Government funds, going over practicdlly the same ground as covered in_the hearings be- fore the House committee on appropri- ations last week. Other members of the relief committee and several of the California delegation were present. ‘While there is no hope of Congres- | sional aid, the relief committee is en- couraged. in the belief that the pur- pose which it seeks to accomplish may be secured through action of the Treas- ury Department. Just what this ac- tion will be, if any, is yet to be de- termined. _— ROCKEFELLER SAYS EXTRAVAGANCE 15 CIRSE OF NATION Tells Frenchmen- This Country Will Have to Undergo a Sweating Process. Specifil (I‘;hle Clo Tren Cllllnol‘:ld the New York erald. ~ Copyright, 3 Publisting Company. el PARIS, June 18.—John D. Rockefel- ler pronounced extravagance the na- tional curse of America, with inevitable evil consequences, in an interview to- day. “You are undoubtedly the richest people in the world, because you are economical,” said Rockefeller to M. Hermann of the Paris Bourse. “We make more money in America. but we are very extravagant. It is our curse. It is peculiar, too, that even those who come to us from your country soon fall into our habits of extravagance. As a result, .we shall have to go through a sweating process by and by. It will have to come.” Speaking very emphatically and ges- ticulating earnestly, Rockefeller con- tinued: “We are highly prosperous now and can easily care for the 50,000 immi- grants who come to us weekly. But we shall have to go through the sweat- ing process and then we shall still have to care for them.” —_— President’s Uncle Buried. SAYVILLE, L.

President Roosevelt was detained at Washington and was un- able to attend the funeral. that William McKinley was chosen Governor. Stockton Pioneer Dies.

Frederick Muth, who was kidnaped from school on Tuesday last, was recov- ered from his captor in a sensational the identity of the kidnaper has been known to the police, but despite the ef- forts of four hundred men who have been working on the case he wifs not located until today. Accompanied by one of his men, Chief of Detectives Donaghy went to 426 North Sixty-second street, in West Philadelphia, and there found Joseph Kean with his captive. Kean attempted to escape and was shot at by theé detec- tives. The bullets missed their aim, but Kean surrendered and was taken to po- lice h\adquarters The ‘kidnaper, who is 47 years old, is described as a former stock broker, who had recently been a real estate agent. He has a wife and three chil- dren, and it is believed that his desper- ate financial situation drove him to his crime. In communications to the father of the child he demanded $5000 for the boy’s return, and in a letter written on Friday declared he would kill the child and himself if the money was not forth- coming. Kean's terms were acceded to in a “personal” inserted in all of Satur- day’ papers. Then, in a subsequent letter, Kean proposed new terms, and these were likewise accepted and an- other “personal” was inserted yester- day. Meanwhile misleading reports have been given to the public by the police in order to serve their purpose. The boy, who is only 7 years old, was apparently unharmed, except that he bore evidence of suffering from hunger and exposure. When the kidnaper and his victim were brought before Superintendent of Police Taylor the boy still had in his hand the school books he had when he was enticed from school by a decoy note purporting to be from his mother.

WASHINGTON, June 18. — Senator Tillman today again called up his reso- lution providing for an investigation of the question of national bank con- tributions to political campaigns and also relative to the recent failure of the Chicago National Bank. Speaking to the resolution, Tillman said that Senator Aldrich had waived aside the resolution on the ground that the Senate had recently passed a bill prohibiting the banks from making campaign contributions, but Tillman contended that such action on the part of the Senate was not sufficient. Be- Heving that the banks were the prin- cipal source of revenue of the Repub- lican political committees, he did not believe that the House would pass the bill prior to the election of next fall. Hence he still felt the necessity for the investigation provided for by his reso- lution. He insisted that the resolution would be retroactive, but confessed that he had little hope in that direction. “The banks will get an Iimmunity bath for past offenses.” he predicted. Speaking of the Chicago bank failure, Tillman charged that the Comptroller of the Currency had known for months before the failure that the bank had in effect loaned $15,000,000 to its president in violation of law. Senator Hopkins replied that Till- man had been misled by irresponsible Chicago men and declared that the South Carolina Senator's tirade had proved another illustration of the fact that “a little learning is a dangerous thing.” He charged the Sou}y’Carolinian with a desire to injure the Chicago banks and to exploit himself. No action was taken by the Senate. BIG SUM OF MONEY IN HOUSE WHERE WOMAN WAS KILLED on the Murder of Mrs. Kinnan. NEW YORK, June 18.—The police and Coronmer, in searching the Stanton House in the Bronx yesterday, where Mrs. Alice D. Kinnan was mysteriously murdered more than a week ago. found bank books showing. deposits of more than $10,000. The entire house is said to be in a topsy-turvy condition, many of the rooms being piled high with rub- bish, thus making the search dicult. Mrs. Stanton, mother of Mrs. Kinnan, was taken from her home last Friday to allow the authorities to search for possible clews which would throw light on the murder. Nothing has been dis- covered, however, to point toward the murderer. Fifteen bank books were found yesterday. On Saturday $16,000 was uncovered in the house. —_— Woman Kills Her Rival SALIDA, Cole, June 18.—Mrs. Carl Bode, wife of a railroad engineer, was shot and killed today by Mrs. Harold Hutchinson, wifé of a switchman. | Jealousy was the cause of the murder, SR Radke & Co., | 1813 Devisadero street, near Bush, s selling real souvenirs of the great for wedding gifts and presents, DI.« monds, silver and gold ware. ductions will be art. 1 their paper by The first subject of and beautiful Beautitul Picture FREE Beginning next Sunday The San Francisco Call will issue the first of a series of fire pictures taken from various points of vantage during the fire’s progress by our staff artist, Mr. E.
