throat and left arm and fell beside his
victim.
When the landlady and several roomers
rushed TO the scene horrible sight met
their gaze. The girl was lying in hud-
dled-up position with her life's blOoG
pouring from the gaping wound in her
throat, and the blood from Larrabee's
wound mingled with that of the dead girl.
The body of the girl was removed to the
Morgue and Larrabee was taken to the
Receiving Hospital where the wounds in
his throat and arm were dressed and
stitched. His wounds are not dangerous

but managed to say that the girls trus
name is Effie King and that she came here
from Chicago.
A letter found in Larrabee's pocket
book which he had written TO his sister
and brother on July %, but for some reason
or Otner had not posted, he wrote in a de-
spondent mood. He said: 81 wish | was

derer 10 end his own life.
The murderer is f. H. Larrabee, a man
about 80 years of age, who was employed
until about week ago at the Midwinter
Fair as an electrician. He was employed
in the same capacity at the Worlds Fair,
Chicago, and came here at the opening of
the fair.
Since February last he has been rooning
at 3315 O'Farrell street, where ne met the
young girl Leroy She had gone to live
there about a year ago with Charley Bates,
an actor, but about four months afterward
she and Bates Qusrreled, and she was iiv
ing alone when Larrabee met ner.
Shortly after she and Larrabee became
acquainted they lived together. and last
month he bought her an engagement ring.
He was infatuated with the girl and was
always urging her to marry him. She
probably would have done so had she not
again met Bates, for whom her old infatua-
ton revived.
week ago she told Larrabee she was
tired of him and was going back to live
with Bates. This drove him wild with
jealousy. and since then the quarrels be-
tween them were frequent and bitter.
Yesterday morning she began to pack up
her things, as she intended leaving the
city with Bates tomorrow morning.
About half-past 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon Larrabee asked Mis-. Raymond,
the landlady, where Ethel was. She told
him she was in the kitchen. He stepped
into a small room east OF the kitchen and
ASKED Mrs. Raymond to tell Ethel that he
wished 10 speak with her for few min
utes.
The girl left the kitchen reluctantly and
went into the small room where Larrabee
was waiting for her. For about i've min
utes their voices were heard az if in angry
dispute. and then the girl left the room.
She bad only made two or three steps
along the narrow passage to the kitchen
when Larrabee seized her by the neck and
threw her down. She struggled desper-
ately when she saw him pull a razor out
of his pocket, and her shrieks of terror
rang throughout the building.
She grasped the razor and he drew il
sharply from her. cutting her fingers.
Then he made slash at her throat. but
she moved her head and the razor cut
cash from her lip down to her chin. The
poor girl had only time to utter a wild
shrek of mortal lear when he drew the
keen edge of the razor across her throat.

Playing With Matches.

Leon Grapucbet, 2Omonth-old baby was
severely If not fatally burned at 143 Ninth
street last night shortly after O'Clock. After
putting him TO bed the nurse lay down on the
lounge and fell asleep. The baby got hold of
some matches and amused himself by striking
them till he set IRE TO The bedclothes. His
screams awakened the nurse. She ran down
stairs for pafuI OF water and soon eAtin-
guished the ire. Mrs. NJ. W. Shawhan, a neigh

during the same season Of 1898.
The truth in the matter is that several
Eastern houses have jumped right over
San Francisco and placed big orders for
canned stuff in the Orient Our local
mills are selling vast quantities of -four
because of the prospective demand for it
in the laud Of strife.
There IS no movement among local
dealers toward chartering vessels 10 carry
cargoes OF provisions, aud the reason for
this inactivity is explained by merchant,
who says:
Il hardly think that any one would be
justified 10 shipping goods on speculation

the war will last.
Suppose, for example, that I should
send a ship to China. It is more than
probable that it would reach there after
all hOstil!ties have ceased, and its cargo
would then become drug on the market.
There is no one in my knowledge ever
dreaming of such a thing as fitting out a
d vessel, unless, perhaps, some Spectator
intends trying TO rush a big consignment
of rifles or ammunition through The war
can affect our produce market but very
little"
The shippers of the big lot of -four by
the Gaelic say that they do not know
whether it will be used by the army of
China or not. They only remark that or

the past sixty days.

Francisco establishments cannot afford to

Among the passengers by the Gaelic for
Japan was ex-Japanese Minister to
Washington Coco Tateno. The diplomat
was accompanied on board by large staff
and retinue of servants.
Japanese in numbers put in an appear

TO the Minister, and also to bid farewell to

was among them.

to offer their services to their Emperor,
and The Chinese crew of the Gaelic did not
seem IN the least disturbed by the news
that they might be mObbed by the army
OF Japs that had taken up quarters in the
f0recastle.
There are no signs of a rush for Asia

but the chances are th lat a lot of japanese

Deputy Surveyor of Port Sam Ruddell
was on board the Gaelic just before she
sailed for China yesterday afternoon and
informed the reporters that the stories
about the big shipments of -four and
canned goods to China and Japan were all
nonsense.
While Mr.. Ruddell was speaking the
steVedoTes were taking on board the last
of the largest shipment of -four that has
been sent to the Orient for year.
There have been large consignments OF
goods and flour by every steamer Of late"
continued the officer; ''the supplies are
not for war purposes"
The business men of San Francisco
think just as MI Ruddell does, and that is
why they may be mistaken. The ship
ment of canned goods to Japan for the
months of June, July and August exceed
those of corresponding period of last
year by 1914 cases. The figures are as fol-

junkman, who lives at 7l8 Greenwich street,
was drowned yesterday afternoon In the SWIM

Powell street. He was an active lad and

with cramps or stricken With heart disease.
EluO had been in the wafer about TWO hours
and was amusing himself by diving INTO the
deepest part of the tank, when, unnOtIced by
his COMPANIONS or the swimming-teacher, he
