q Story Of UnfaIthfulness, Extravaganza and
General Recklessness.
BERLIN, Nov s. The Summerfelis.
father and son, who tried to commit suicide
yesterday, opened veins in their arms besides
shooting themselves with revolver. When
found both were bathed In blood. Felix ex-
plred Saturday evening. Sigmond still
lives, and although the bullet is imbedded
In his brain, there is a bare chance of his
recovery. Sigmond's wife recently flied her
petition for a divorce. Both Sigmond and
Felix married heiresses. Felix's wife is the
daughter of the millionaire Pnkus. All
have been personally extravagant.
Felix was an epicure and wrote cook
cry articles for the BOersen Courier. Many
creditors and small capitalists were attracted
to the firm by the high rate of interest
offered on deposits. The cause Of the rash
act was the fear OF arrest. Herr Pinkus
offered them loan to prevent the disaster,
but the intervention of the police made all
assistance useless. 1t is rumored that other
firms have been denounced to the police for
irregular dealings, and that their books will
be examined. Banker Leipsiger has also
been arrested. a stockhUlder named Wolff,
who has Just committed suicide with pol
sou, is supposed to be involved in the fail
uTe.
Business on the Boerse yesterday was
notable for the numerous forced sales, be-
ginning early and increasing toward the
close on the collapse Of the Sommerfeld
Bank and the rumors that other failures
were imminent. The Boersen' Courier says
that the liabilities of Sommerfeld amount
10 several million marks, and that the
assets are small. A general panic and
run on the deposit banks appears
inevitable. The banks, acting in common,
opened to-day and had clerks attending TO
the applications for cash. Some counts
were closed by the scared depositors. To-
morrow's developments are less anxiously
awaited. The Frankfort Boerse was open
to-day, but as generally shown there was
only a fractional decline

A BLACK LEPER.
An Opium Search Reveals One in
a Clay-Street Den.

Chinatown has another horror. Besides
being a horror it terrifies. 1t is no less
thing than that most dreaded of beings, a
black leper. He is now in dark room at
76l Clay street, between Kearny and Du-
pont. just opposite the old city plaza.
Last Saturday afternoon squad of opium
searchers entered the place to look after con-
traband opium and cigars. In the party
were Inspectors Thomas and Capp and
Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue Jones'
The searching had not far progressed when
dark room, the second on the right hand,
or west side, was invaded.
Lying on couch was miserable speci-
men of humanity. Before the rays of
lighted candle ilumined the room he called

that would prove warning

swered one OF the Inspectors, as he pushed
forward. However, as soon as he caught
sight OF the man hs concluded it did and
beat basty retreat. 1t was evident that
the Chinaman was not only sick, but that
he was leper. His limbs were no greater
than the top Of a common teacup in diane
ter, and the color of manZanita wood, while
bis toes and hands gave every evidence Of
disintegration. The appearance of his face
will serve as his certificate before the Board
of Health on his way to the pesthouse.
His "uncles" and cousins" who "no

removed from the house, and as the Six

Concessions Forfeited-Charges Of Abuse Of

Concessions Forfeited-Charges Of Abuse Of
Americans to Be Investigated.
CITY OF MEXICO, Nov. s. = President
Diaz has declared forfeited the concessions
for the expectation of sulphur iu the CEN
trail part of Lower California, granted to
Luis HeilerO. and the $1,000 guarantee de-
pOsit becomes part of the public fund.
Diario de Chihuahua says: "Mr. Sutton
United States Consult General in Laredo
has arrived here for the purpose it is said,
OF obtaining information concerning abuses
committed upon American citizens on Mex
lean territory in connection with the Cata-
rlnO GarZa affair"
Extensive garnet n,jnes have been discov-
cred in Lower California, near the United
States frontier. Ell Tempo is editorially
calling on the Government TO cancel the
concessions made to Americans 10 establish
fishing station at Alocranes Island. 1t
alleges that this is a plan of Blaine to Oh
tain possession of the island as coaling
station. Ell TEMPO is very anti-Amercan,
and views the United States as an enemy
of Catholicism.
President Diaz has given orders to COM
manders OF the northern frontier that no
more persons shall be shotor punished with
out previous trial by competent authori-

PIERCED THE HEART.
Another Version Of the Tragedy
Near Salinas.
The Four FfOVnoy Brothers Captured and
Lodged in the County Jail.
Claim That the Mother Was Struck With
Picket by a Portuguese and Then
Shot by an Officer.
krecial to THE MORNING CALI

SALINAS, Nov 9.-Deputy Sheriff j. /.
Matthews captured the four Frowney Broth
ers to-day, whose mother was killed yester-
day while resisting Officer Mccarthy. They
were in hiding in a railroad culvert near
Chuolar, waiting for darkness to proceed
on their journey. Officer Matthews hap
pened to see one Of them standing at the
entrance and suspected they were the par
ties he was in quest Of and ordered him to
throw up his hands, whereupon the twins
came forward and marched up to the officer,
and the two elder brothers threw up their
hands and begged not to be shot The Off
Ger assured them that he would not harm
them, provided they gave themselves up
peacefully, which they did. They were
brought in and placed in the County Jail.
The story they tell is altogether different
from the story told by Officer Mccarthy.
They say that when Mccarthy came up to
them he did not tell them his mission at all,
but proceeded to take a shotgun from the
ground, which was laying close TO the
woman, wherenpon she insisted on his leav-
ing the gun alone, and was parleying with
the officer when the Portuguese struck her
over the back with picket. She then
picked up an ak and attempted to drive
them away, and the officer then showed her
the warrant for their arrest.
In the meantime the small boys called the
older brothers, who were in the hills hunt
ing, who came running down the hill. When
the officer saw them coming he drew his re.
volver and shot twice at the mother The
first shot missed, but the second pierced her
heart and she fell. The officer then turned
on them and fired and they returned his
fire. One fired once from a revolver and
the other once with single barreled shot
gun. The officer then jumped in his cart
and rode rapidly away.
They then placed their mother in the
wagon and harnessed the horse, with the
intention of coming to Salinas, but changed
their minds and took to the hills. They
Travelled until 9 o'clock and slept at the old
Hartnell adobe. They left there at day
break and struck the railroad track and
travelled till they reached this culvert.
An inquest was held on the woman to-
day and the Coroner'S jury brought in a
verdict that deceased came to her death by
a gunshot wound fired by Officer Mccarthy
in the discharge of his duty, and exonerated
him.
