bate On the proposal TO increase the

in wheat. The report Of the committee
recommending the raising of the duty to
8 francs wsa then read. Charles Roui,
one of the deputies from Marseilles.
said he opposed any increase in the duty
on wheat, end contracted the policy OF
France, which was to raise tine duty on
Russian wheat with that OF the Ger
mans, who were favoring Russian wheat.
ST.. PETERSBURG, Feb. 12.-The ma
iority of the papers here make bitter
comment on the French wheat policy,
and declare it is distinctly prejudieial to
the Russian grain trade.

The Determined Suicide of
CLAUS Bjelland.
The Cause of the Rash Act Is EnyeI-
oped in Mystery-A Dive
Waitress Story.

OAKLAND.-About O'clock last night CLAUS
Bjeland young Norwegian who owned a
cigar-store in San Francisco shot him
self through the head at the corner OF Cen
ter and Oxford streets. Berkeley. The weapon
used was 3S-caliber bulldog revolver and the
suicide fired three shots before nfiicting the
fatal wound which was through the right
temple.
The suicide is TO degree enveIoped In
mystery. Young Bielland was enamored OF a
divewaitress named Jessie Petersen, who
works in the Golden City Saloon, on Pacific
street, but who lives in Berkeley. 1t seems
that he went over to her house yesterday after
noon, for what purpose cannot be ascertained.
AT any rate, about O'CLOCK In the evening.
Bjeland and the Petersen woman, accompanied
by another dive-waitress named Lou johnson,
started from the Petersen home TO take the
train for this city.
Bjeland walked ahead, the women say, ana
suddenly threw himself down on a bank. The
women went to him ana coaxed him 10 get up
and accompany them. BjelIand did so, again
walking ahead. Suddenly the women saw a
flash and heard the report of pistol shot
second flash followed aud bullet whiZZed past
their heads. Then came third shot, and they
saw Bjelland reel and fall to the ground.
Going TO the nearest house the women sum-
moned help and the wounded man was speedily
conveyed 10 place OF shelter, where physi-
clan examined his injuries. 1t was found that
the first shot had been aimed al his heart, but
glanced upward, leaving a mark on his chest
The second shot missed the man entirely, but
the third shot crashed through his brain and
Inflicted fatal wound.
Bieand was an educated man in good cir
cumsiances, and the only reason that can be
assigned for his suicide was that in fit OF
anger after quarreling with the Petersen
woman he killed himself.
Mrs. Petersen. who is anything but prepos-
sessing woman. was seen last night at the sa-
loon which she freQuents. She would only
admit that she saw BjeIand shoot himself
and denied that she had any idea OF the cause
that prompted the rash act. Tbgt she has not
told all she knows about the matter is certain
and the authorities Will probably take her In
hand to-day TO Try TO ascertain the uulh.
