SUDDEN DEATH OF ISAAC fEl1DlANDER
THE PRODUCE EXCHANGE AID
JOURNS.


SAN FRANcIsco, July IL.
The death of Mr.. Isaac F~riedlander was
very unexpected he was yesterday in I'M
usually good health and spirits, and ate a
hearty dinner, after which he chatted and
smoked in the best Of humor; but suddenly
he complained of a severe pain in the
region Of his heart, and remarked that ii
was probably a return of the old trouble,
from which he had suffered some years
ago. The pain continued to increase until
death closed his sufferings. To-day the
offices of the deceased operator are closed,
but r. E.. Doyle, the managing clerk of the
concern, states TO you correspondent that
no serious embarrassment will result from
the death of his principal. The business
was conducted mostly on a cash basis, and
a settlement will be reached with but little
trouble. Some inconvenience of a tempo
rary nature will arise from the necessary
delay while proper legal steps are being
taken for the disposition Of his affairs, bat
the estate is fully solvent, and in good
condition for the prompt satisfaction Of
all demands. The Produce Exchange,
after a brief session this morning, adjourned
put of respect to the memory OF Isaac
Friedlander. A committee was appointed
to draw suitable resolutions. President
Clayton paid a brief but feeling tribute to
the deceased. There will probably be 10
session OF the Exchange tomorrow. 1t is
not believed that Mr.. Friedlander's death
will nave any material effect upon the gem
eral interests of the grain trade. Since his
failure his business has been merely ON
commission; he has also operated largely
in shipping, but that, too, has been on
| commission.

grade, and finally brought up in the House
of the Inebriates, whence he was dis
charged a few days Ago.. He entered the
pawnbroker's, and asked for q cheap, SER
viceable revolver. One was handed to him,
and he inquired particularly as to It's ef-
fectiveness, and, being assured on that
point, had it loaded. As the clerk turned
placed the pistol to his head and fired, fall
ing in his track.

Allday yesterday and this forenoon we're
consumed in getting a jury for the trial Of
Sprague, charged with the murder Of I.
W. More. A motion by defense for con-
tinuance was overruled. The defense has
been strengthened by the accession Of
Greed Raymond, who is said to be a dis
tant relative of the prisoner, who arrived
last night. There are now five attorneys
for the defense and six for the prosecution,
Jurors, as fast as they are accepted. are
given in charge of a Deputy Sheriff, and
will not be allowed to separate until a
verdict or a disagreement is reached. A
great deal of excitement is manifested on
