Police Relief Fund.

Cathrine McCaffrey, the widow of Police
man Mccartney. who died on April 81, 1891,
has petitioned for a writ to compel the
Board Of Police Pension Fund Commission
ers to allow the payment to her of $1,000 out
of the Police Relief and Pension Fund.
McCatfrey was appointed in January, 1868,
and continued In service until retired under
the act of March 4, 1889. During all this
period he contributed 81 monthly to the
fund in question, but the widows request
for the $1,000 upon his death was refused
upen the assertion that i'm eases of death,
where the board has retired a man on
pension, his widow is not entitled TO the re-
lief money ont of the fund

Bruises on His Body Cause an Autopsy

Coroner Garwood was notified yesterday
Of the death of j. w. Hrey, an aged man,
last Saturday. The deceased was 90 years
old and a native of Tennessee. On the 18th
inst. he was found in an unconscious condi-
tion and taken to the Receiving Hospital.
During the two days he remained there he
was treated for nervous prostration. From
the hospital he was removed to his home at
1927 Mission street, where he remained un-
conscious until o'clock Saturday night,
when he breathed his last
DIR. Il. {. Cook, who had attended him
for over year for general debility, refused
10 sign death certificate because there
were two bruises on the head and one on
the back. 1t seemed hardly probable that
the slight bruises caused death, but it was
deemed best for an autopsy to be held, so
that the cause of death could be definitely
determined. For that reason Huey's re-
mains were removed to the Morgue.
An autopsy by DR.. Williams showed that
Hney's death resulted from natural causes.

CALL is in no way indebted to Hollywood
for the facts. Collector Phelps de-
clares that he is very busy investigating
frauds and gives out mysterious hints of
startling developments to come, but which
he is not at liberty to say anything further
about at this time.
The Grand Jury was in session the greater
part Of yesterday afternoon, but no wit
nesses were before them. 1t is surmised on
the outside that there is no great degree Of
unanimi;y being manifested in the Grand
Jury room, but that on the contrary
there is great divergence of opinion en-
tertained. One story is that they are nearly
equally divided. Many of the members
have grown weary Of the character of the
testimony upon which they are being
pressed by the Government officials to bring
in indictments. There is growing belief
that the present lab0rs in District Attorney
Carriers office will show surprisingly small
results for the tremendous amount of energy
and secrecy which have been on exhibition
there during the past ten days.
