HOUSES BURNED.
An Early Morning Blaze
on Folsom Street.
Several Buildings Damaged and One
Destroy ed-1he Key TO the Box
Could Not Be Found.

The furious stamping and neighing of
the horses in p. F. Lauterwasser's stable,
1905 Folsom. at o'clock yesterday morn
ing, drew the attention of a paSser-by,
who, upon making an Investigation, found
that the building was on ire. There were
four horses in the stable and dense cloud
OF smoke was rising from heap of straw
and rubbish near their stalls. The man
rushed for the guardian OF the key TO The
nearest alarm-box, but was unable TO find
him, and with big stone he smashed the
door of the box and rung IN number 70.
Flames were then leaping through the
walls and the roof of the building and the
entire neighborhood was aroused. Many
efforts we're made to rescue the frantic
horses from the stable. hut as often as
they were dragged to the door they rushed
back and were finally abandoned TO their
fate.
The flames quickly communicated to
other buildings, and the stables and barns
in the backwards were cleared of their
contents, y bile owners and tenants OF the
dwellings removed their pOTtabl property
to the sidewalk.
The stable in which the fire started was
destroyed and several houses were blazing
when the firemen appeared. It was a
very difficult cOnflagration TO master. for
the passages between the houses were
very narrow and several rear buildings
were blazing at once.
Two or three buildings were badly dam
aged and several were scorched. The

THE JACOBSON MURDER.
An Insane Woman Says She Com.
mitted the Crime.

a young woman who says she is the
original Lille V. Shaffer. who was in
the company of Samuel Jacobson a few
minutes before he was so mysteriously
murdered four years ago, gave herself up
to the police last night, and is now in the
insane ward at the Receiving Hospital
She makes the turtle r statement that she
shot jacobson and that the suspicious that
rested on Sidney Bell and Edward Camp
bell were groundlsss.
For over year Miss Shaffer has been
writing letters to the Chief of Police. in
which she confessed over and over again
that she murdered jacobson. The police
paid no attention 10 her letters and last
night she called at police headquarters to
give herself up. As no credence was
placed in her story she was sent to the
Receiving Hospital to await examination
before the Insanity Commission
Miss Shatfer is tall blonde, % years Of
age, and fairly good-looking. She says
she was tainted about the murder by her
neighbOrs and harassed by the police until
she couid stand the mental strain no
longer. and preferred to give herself up.
From the fact that the police have never
been to see her with regard to the murder
it is believed that the remainder OF her
story is as idle as the statement that she
has been harassed by the authorities.

Dunsmuir & Son have discharged the
entire crew of the Wellington and sent the
vessel over TO Sausalito to lie up.
The Wellington has been making regu-
lar trips to British Columbia for long
period of time and her sudden withdrawal
from the coal-carrying trade is something
OF a surprise.
Business is not rushing, and there is
more coal in the market than is in demand
at present 1t is not thought that the
Wellington will be laid off for any great
length of time.

SHOULD HAVE KNOWN 1T.
Mrs. BIenis Learns Something Late
i'm Life.


Mrs. j. Blenis was the plaintiff yester-
day in suit against an alleged confidence
game. The defendants were John Doe
Hirsch and John Doe Wachsmann, whose
real names Mrs. Blenis says she does not
know. These two gentlemen. together
with Richard Roe, Peter Black and Mary
Black, are accused of having defrauded
Mrs. Blenis of S92. On the Sth of last De-
cember they approached her as proprietors
of the Royal Security Exchange" 80 Don
oboe building. with proposition to sell
certain foreign securities which were said
to be convertible into cash in any bank in
the world. The securities were Servan
Government, Hungarian JosZiv, Holland
White Cross, original per cent Servan
Government and original 3 per cent Otto
man 400 francs.
Mrs. Blenis was told that by the pay
ment OF $50 she would become a member
OF one Of series of clubs, which Hirsch,
Wachsmann and others were organizing
under the corporation name of the Royal
Security Exchange. Each club was to
consist OF twenty members, and each men,
Der was TO invest S120, for which he was
to receive title to twenty of each of the
foreign securities above mentioned. Ac-
cording 10 Hirsch d Co.'S story, member
ship had already been taken by many
men of business repute. Mrs Blenis now
alleges that she was foolish enough 10 be-
lieve this story. Also she believed when
told that the bonds when presented at any
bank in the world would be redeemed
for nothing less than S120. She figured Oh
that basis that she could lose nothing.
Accordingly on December s she paid
down $50 as the first installment for the
$40 mem bership, and for six months
thereafter paid SIS per month, making q
total to May 3 of S60 From this point on
the story became the ordinary one of the
bunco game. The cards had drawn, said

the banker, but certain amount more
must be put in by the player before the
drawing would be casned. Mrs. Blenls.
when requested TO do so, innocently went
down into her pocket aud threw upon the
counter S32 more TO 60 chasing after the
hrst $50. On June % she was told that
the bonds had drawn dividends, but that
IT would require S32 TO collect them.
1t evidently required some time TO edu-
cate Mrs. Blenis up tn the ways of crooks.
Tor 1t was only yesterday that she set forth
in court that Messrs. Hirsch & Co. were
prevaricators, to phrase it lightly, and
should he so branded before the public.
Her suit was for $50 damages and TO re-
cover the $50 falsely OBJ aimed from her.

THE MAYOR WILL NOT ACT.
lie Refuses to Be Market Street
Grade Commissioner.


Grade Commissioner.
Mayor Ebert will not act as Commits
si0ner in the matter of the change of grade
on Market street. This fact he announced
yesterday in a communication to City and
County Attorney Cresswell. Surveyor
FltZhugh also is doubtful about acting.
The Mayor says that he considers the
law governing the change of grade uncon-
stitutional. 1t makes him chairman of
the commission. while at the same time he
would be- compelled, as Mayor, 10 SIT and
pass upon his own acts in that capacity
when the commissions report was brought
before him for approval. This, the Mayor
thinks, Is due to An oversight on the part
Of the trainers of the law. He therefore
submits his objections to the City. and
County Attorney, and meanwhile refuses
to call The commission together.
Surveyor Fitzhugb, the second Commits
sioner. upholds the position of the Mayor.
Therefore Street Superintendent Acker-
)n, the third Commissioner, who stands
ready 20 act at any time, Is footbound and
can do nothing.

There is a noticeable increase in in
