Secret Conference of Sugar Men Held
Yesterday.
There are other things besides roses on the
path which the sugar trust is about to travel
and there is a possibility that the Spreckels
we're oyerwise in forming an alliance With
that great American institution.
The sum received by Spreckels for the
transfer OF his Philadelphia refineries TO the
trust is var iously estimated at from $1,000
600 10 $1,000, COO. But if lie received the
higher amount il would be as nothing COM
pared TO that which he gave in exchange.
for IT, for lie was the only opponent of the
trust south and west of Boston. But it Is
now known that this was not all that was
in the deal. j. ID. SpreckeIs admitted TO
CALL reporter last night that in accordance
with the agreement made between Clans
Spreckels and the trust the former shall not
be opposed by the latter on this coast
This in effect will give the Spreckels the
absolute control of the sugar market in the
West

els and the leading planters of the Hawaiian

Marine Engineer Blows His Brain
Out In a Saloon.

a Marine Engineer Blows His Brains
Out In a Saloon.
Alfred j. Sheppard, q marine engineer,
deliberately shot himself through the head
last evening at s o'clock and died an hour
afterward.
Sheppard entered an underground saloon
at the northeast corner of Post and Kearny
streets, shortly before 8 O'Clock. and took a
drink. The proprietor of the place, George
Grossman. told him that friend of his from
the steamer San Juan wanted to see him.
and Sheppard sat down to wait for him.
GrOssman also sat down at the table and
She ppard told him that he had been out to
the park and to the baseball game. While
Grossman was reading Sheppard was NUT
tering to himself. Finally he said, Gross
man, what do you think of the park as
place to commit suicide?"
Grossman thought he was joking, and
said, Il guess 1t is about as good as any
place"
Nothing was said for few moments, and
GroSsman was thunderstruck when he
heard shot and saw pistol drop to the
floor from Sheppard's hands. He rushed
out OF the saloon. and. notifying the police,
patrol wagon was sent to the saloon, and
Sheppard was conveyed to the Receiving
Hospital.
The ball penetrated the brain in its up
ward course from below the right ear and
passed through the top of his head. DR..
Deane dressed the wound, but before it was
possible to put the injured man to bed he
died. and his body Was conveyed to the
Morgue.
Shortly after 10 o'clock Sheppard's father,
who Is one OF the oldest marine engineers
on the coast, visited the Morgue and identi-
fed the remains. He said that up TO few
weeks ago his son was engaged as engineer
on the steamer ALki which was In the
Government service. Much to his surprise
his son began TO drink heavily a couple of
weeks ago. and when he came home several
nights ago 10 an inebriated condition he
ch!ded him for it in a fatherly manner.
Sheppard purchased pistol two weeks ago,
Tor the avowed purpose of defending him
self against some waterfront tOughs, but
his brother took it away from him aud kept
IL. y few nights ago he asked his brother
TO return IL, but the brother. fearing that he
might use i. indiscreetly. refused. Where
Sheppard obtained the pistol with which he
killed himself is not known.
His father states that he was engaged TO
be married, and il is supposed that the
young lady broke the engagement and that
Sheppard then began to drink and finally
wound up by killing himself.
Sheppard resided with his parents at
1919 Seventeenth street. He was 2S years
of age and q native of California.
