Dassaraty niusdsr nnd Robbery In
San Francisco.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. S.-About
7 O'Clock this morning Richard
Barry, residing on the corner of
Parker Avenue and Fulton street,
near the Masonic Cemetery, left
home for the Golden Gate Park,
where he is employed as gard
ener, leaving his wife Ann and son,
about IL years of age, at home. The
boy left for school about o'clock.
Soon afterward, William Dargil,
at work not far distant in the Gem
etery, heard screams proceeding
from Barry's house, and, directly
after, saw the door, which was
standing open, closed by some one
from the inside. Surprising Mrs.
Barry was Furnishing her boy, Of
whose departure he was not
aware, he paid no atten-
ton to the matter. About
10 O'clock, a friend of Barry, named
McCue, called at the house, and his
knock meeting with no response,
he entered. He was Mortified to
find, lying OH the kitchen floor in a
pool of blood, the body of Mrs.
Barry, her head and face literally
chopped to pieces, and liatchet
with which the deed was done
lying beside her. The room bore
evidances of deadly struggle, and
was smeared with blood. 1t was
evident that robbery had melted
the murder as trunk in the room
back of the kitchen had been
broken open and the contents
strewed around, and few dollars
in money which had been deposited
there taken away. A suit of
clothes belonging to Mr.. Barry had
also been carried off. An alarm
was given after some considerable
delay at the house, and in the af-
ternOOn an officer and Deputy Cor
oner proceeded to the scene of
murder. In examining the prem
ises and vicinity. they discovered
tracks leading from the house in
the yielding sand and traced them
about three quarters of mile,
where, in a growth of scrub oaks,
they came upon camp In small,
clear space, with cooking utensils,
etc., scattered about. Near by, ly-
ing in the brush, they found
tramp, who, Oh being discovered,
said, "What do you want? L
haven't done nothing" "Who
said you had ?n replied the officer,
who then questioned the man. He
gave his name as Albert Reh.'er,
!. and said he worked in town and
came out there to sleep. On his
person was found large sheath
knife, but nothing to connect him
with the murder. He was locked
up, pending a further examination
of the affair. Mrs. Barry was q
native of ireland, aged 45.
