A Brace of Inquosts,

Coroner Nadeau was yesterday called
to attend two inquests. The first was
the case of man named L. Duncan,
who came here about ten days since
from San Francisco and was stopping at
the United States Hotel. The deceased
was found dead, sitting in a chair in his
room yesterday morning. On his person
were found silver watch, $40 in specie,
a bank book of the Hibernia Bank, San
Francisco, and another of the Masonic
Bank of the same city. In his pockets
were a letter from John Lloyd, San
Francisco, and Paul Duncan of Nevada.
He appeared to be man of wealth and
much travel. At the inquest, the Cor
oner gave it as his opinion that the de-
ceased died from enlargement and bloody
fiux of the liver Verdict so rendered.
In the afternoon an italian woman,
Rose Morales, was found dead in her bed
on Buena Vista street. She had hus-
band somewhere named Eduardo Bar
toldo, whereabouts unknown. 1t ap-
peared that the deceased had complained
for a month past of terrible pain in her
bowels, and had apparently prepared
for bed with the usual care of her cloth
ing, when under the violence of her suf-
serings she threw herself on the bed and
expired, apparently from CONGESTION Of
the brain. The verdict was that she
came to her death from natural causes.
