CLARENCE BARR'S SLAYER
A TelI-Tale Photograph Re-
CeiVed From the Portland
Police.
IT LOOKS LIKE HENDERSON.
He Still Asserts That He Is Not Con
Sullivan, the "Sure-Thing"
Gambler.

G. B. Henderson, charged with the mur-
der of Clarence Barr, is either Con Sulli-
van, the sure-thing gambler, or he bears a
most striking resemblance to him.
Captain Lees few days ago telegraphed
to Chief of Police Mimic of Portland to
send on photo of Sullivan and the cap
tain received it Saturday night. In his
letter sending the photo Chief Mimic states
that Sullivan never was imprisoned there,
except serving a sentence of ninety days
for vagrancy in January, 1894, but he
served sentence in Colorado penitentiary
for shooting mans thumb off. He was
sentenced to two years and nearly served
all his time and was pardoned by the
Governor.

PARK AND OCEAN BEACH.
Thousands OF People Enjoy the Varied
Benefits of q Sundays
Init

Outing.
Yesterday was one of those ideal days
which charm the soul, and thousands upon
thousands of San Franciscans enjoyed the
summer breezes and the brilliant sunshine
to the full. The walks and drives of Golden
Gate Park, the vast space around the band
stand, and all the grassy slopes and wooded
hooks were filled with gayly dressed, light
hearted people out for the one great holi-
day in seven, when all nature seems bright
est and beauty breathes in boomers.
Everybody was out and every other body
seemed to be on bicycle. All sizes and
ages bestrode the swiftly flying wheels,
from the smallest tot imaginable to the
cherubic Henry Martin, whose weight of
4Oo bicycles compels him to ride bicycle
built for two.
All along the ocean beach the crowds
were spun out atop the glittering sands
the livelong day, with the bicycle every
where. So many, indeed, were out on
wheels one would imagine the streetcars
would fare badly, but they didn't. They
were crowded, all of them, on all their
trips, and the hands of the conductors were
kept busy working the punch.
1t was a great and ideal day, and the
pleasure of the crowds was greatly en-

ROBBERS IN A GROCERY
Brinckmann'S Store on Pacific
Avenue and Laguna Street
Visited.
William RahtJe, the Clerk, Held Up
and Money and Other Articles
Taken.

A daring robbery was committed in
Brinckmann's grocery on Laguna street
and Pacific avenue yesterday morning by
two young men between Is and 20 years
of age.
Shortly before o'clock they entered the
bar and ordered two glasses of beer. Will
liam Rahtje, the clerk, was the only one in
the store at the time and while he was
drawing the beer one of them sneaked up
behind him. When Rahtje turned round
he was confronted by two pistols in the
hands of the smaller of the two robbers.
The taller one had covered his face with a
black cloth, and commanded Rahtje to
throw up his hands, which was obeyed
with alacrity.
The masked robber quickly went through
Rahtje's pockets and took So, all the money
he had. He then emptied the till, which
contained S6 or 81, and took a box OF cigars
and six TASKS of whisky from the shelf
All this time the smaller of the two kept
Rahtie covered with the two pistols. After
they got all the money and the cigars and
whisky they locked Rahtje in the store,
and from the window he saw them run
ming toward Jackson street.
Rahtje kicked on the front door till he
attracted the attention of passers-by. The
door was forced open and Rahtie told of
his experience with the robbers. The po-
far been made. A good description of the
two robbers was obtained from Rahtje.
The taller of the two robbers, who had
his face covered with a black cloth, was
about 5 feet 10 inches tall, of slim build
and had dark hair. The smaller was about
5 feet inches tall, of slim build, light
complexion, and had smooth face.

 Failure.
AN INVESTIGATION DEMANDED.

A general banking business is done by the human system, because the blood de- posits in its vaults whatever wealth we may gain from day to day This wealth is laid up against a rainy day" as a reserve fund
 we're in condition of healthy prosperity if we have laid away sufficient capital 10 draw upon ill the hour of our greatest need. There is danger i'll getting thin, because it's a sign of letting down ill health. To gain in blood is nearly always to gain in 7okOie- soDie flesh. The odds are in favor of the germs of consumption, grip, or pneumonia, If our liver be inactive and our blood i'm pure, or if our flesh be reduced 6eIo70 q heaiNy standard. What is required is an increase ill our rgc,n-fehfing sf,-eMgik. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery enriches the blood and makes it wholesome, stops the waste of tissue and at the same time builds mp the strength. A medicine which will rid the blood ofits poisons, cleanse and invigorate the great organs of the body, vitalze the system, thrill the whole being with new energy and make permanent work of it, is surely remedy ofgreat value. But when we make positive statement that oS per cent. of all cases of consumption can, if taken i'll the early stages of the disease. be CURED with the Discovery, it seems like bold assertion. All Dr. Pierce asks is that you make thorough investigation and satisfy yourself of the truth of his assertion.
 By sending to the Worlds Dispensary Med ical Association Buffalo, N. Y.. you can get a free book with the names, addresses and photographs of a large number of those cured oftliroat. bronchial and lung diseases, as well as of skin and scrofulous affections by the Golden Medical Discovery" They also publish book of I6o pages, being a medical treatise on consumption, bronchitis, asthma, catarrh, which will be mailed on receipt of address and six cents in stamps.

Empress Josephine's Appearance.

She had thin, brown hair, complex ion neither fresh nor faded, expressive eyes, small retrousse nose, a pretty mouth, and a voice that charmed all listeners. She was rather under-sized, but her figure was so perfectly propor- tioned as to give the impression of height and suppleness. Its charms were scarcely concealed by the cloth ing she wore, made as it was in the sug- gestive fashion of the day, with no sup port to the form but belt, and as scanty about her shoulders as it was about her shapely feet. It appears to have been her elegance and her man. ners as well as her sensuality, which overpowered Bonaparte; for he de- seribed her as having "the calm and dignified demeanor which belongs to the old regime.

SCATTERED FORTUNES.

American Fortunes Quickly Made and as
 Speedily Dissipated.
 A few years ago among many large accumulations of wealth in this town eight stupendous fortunes stood con- spicuously pre-eminent-thef four rail road fortunes of Stanford, Huntington, Crocler and Hopkins and the four bonanza fortunes of Flood, O'Brien, Mackay and Fair. The widest ideas prevailed concerning the size of these hoards. Stanford and Huntington were commonly supposed to be worth at least Sl0O, 900 apiece. At one time Mackay was called the richest man in the world and his wealth was figured as high as $500, 900, ,OOO This estimate was based on the reasonable idea of taking the dividends on his mining stocks as the interest on capi- tai sufficient to produce such returns at ordinary rates, and perhaps allow ing for a geometrical increase on the previously O bserved scale.
 Of these huge fortunes only that of Huntington remains undiminished in the original hands. Mackay is living, but his wealth, actual and reputed, has shrunk until he sometimes finds it hard to lay his hands at short notice on three million or four million dollars in ready cash. The Stanford estate has been generously dedicated to public uses, The Crocker estate has to sup port several families and several eX- pensive establishments. The Hopkins estate is probably smaller now than when Mark Hopkins died. Flood and O'Brieu saw their wealth diminish to ordinary proportions before their death, and their heirs are not con- conspicuous now among the multi millionaires. The shrewdest and the hardest of the bonanza kings has just died, and his wealth will be divided into several parts in any case, and may be swallowed up by the legal talent that has displayed such absorbent ability in the Jessup and Blythe cases.
 On the whole, the American atmos- phere, favorable as it is to the accpmu. lation of vast fortunes, does not ap- pear particularly to promote their per. petuity.-San Francisco Examiner.

MT. Savers Gives a Democratic View of the

SERVED IN TWO WARS.
The Grip Almost Won Where the
 Bullet Failed.
Dur Sympathies Always Enlisted in the
 Infirmities of the Veteran.
(From ths Herqid, Droodstock, Va,l

(From the Herald, Woodstock, Td)
 There is an old sGldier in Woodstock, Va, who served in the war with Mexico and in the war of the rebellion, Mir. Levi McInturff. He passed through both these wars with put q serious wound. The hardships, how ever, told seriously on him, for when the grip attacked him four years ago it nearly killed him. Who can look on the infirmi- ties of a veteran without feeling of the deepest sympathy! His townspeople saw him confined to his house so prostrated with great nervousness that he could not hold a knife and fork at the table, scarcely able to walk too, and as he attempted it, he often stumbled and fell. They saw him treated by the best talent to be had-but still he suffered op for four years, and gave up finally in despair One day, however, he was struck by the account of a cure which had been effected by the use of Dr. Williams Pink Pills. He immediately ordered a box and commenced taking them. He says he was greatly relieved within three days time. The blood found it's way to his fingers and his hands which had been pal sled assumed anatural color, aud he was soon enabled to use his knife and fork at the table. He has recovered his strength to such an extent that he is able to chop wood, shock corn and do his regular work about his home. He now says he can not only walk to Woodstock, but can walk across the mountains. He is able to lift up tifty-two pound weight with one hand and says he does not know what Dr. Williams Pink Pills have done for others, but knows that they have done great work for him.
 He was in town last Monday, court day, and was loud in his praises of the medicine that had given him so great relief. He pur- chased another box and took it home with him. Mir. Mclnturf is willing to make affidavit to these facts.
 The proprietorS of Dr. Williams PinkP state that they are not patent medicine but prescription used for many years by an em- inent practitioner who produced the most wonderful results with them, curing all forms of weakness arising from watery condition of the blood or shattered nerves, two fruitful causes of almost every ill to which flesh is heir. The pills are also specific for the troubles peculiar to females, such as expressions, all forms of weak ness, chronic constipation, bearing down pains, etc., and in the case of men will give speedy relief and effect permanent cure in all cases arising from mental worry, over work, or eXcesses of whatever nature. They are entirely harmless and can be given to weak and sickly children with the greatest good and without the slightestdanger. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, $50 cents a box, or six boxes for S250-they are never sold in bulk or by the lO0) by addressing Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, NY

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.

R. c. Dun & Co. Believe that the Adjourn =
 ment of Congress and Less Gold ship
 ments Produced Better Feeling.
 NEW YORK, March 0.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says: Congressional adjournment and proof that, though the rate of exchange rises to and even above the shipping point, gold does not go out, have produced a much better feeling. Prices do not inn prove and there is on the whole no gain, but some loss in wages. While strikes of 1000 coal miners near Pittsburgh and several thousand building work CTS, besides strikes in ten or twelve textile and iron establishments fur ther lessen purchasing power for the time, but there is anticipation of inn proved demand for goods in general, and many are manufacturing and buy ing beyond present needs on the strength of it.
 Wheat has risen $ of cent because of rumored injury to grain in some states. Receipts for the week are near ly as large as last year, but in Febru- ary 1, ,9l0,4 446 bushels against 7,O75, ,9O9 last year, with Atlantic exports 2,9S2,- 670 against 3,l2O, 200 last year. Stocks in sight are enormous and western ac- counts make the stock of wheat in farmers hands very large. Corn has declined H of a cent, though receipts are not half last years, with exports insignificant. Pork, lard and hogs are a shade higher and beef has advanced to the highest point since July.
 Copper has been depressed by compe- tition to 9H cents for lake and lead is offered more freely at 3.1 cents, while American makers of tin plate are put ting prices sometimes lower than tn hose of similar imported plates.
 Strikes to resist the reduction of wages in several textile works and re- auctions effected in some others by no means contradict the accounts that mills are receiving somewhat better orders. In woolen goods the initial demand for heavy weights is nearly over, with fairly good business in some lines, but only moderate in others.
 Failures for the week have been 234 in the United States against 24s last year.

NATIONAL FINANCES.
A Statement from the Assistant Secretary
 of the Treasury.

of the Treasury.
 WASHINGTON, March 0.-Assistant Secretary Curtis yesterday made the following statements: Tn view of cer- tain statements in the newspapers that an alleged failure in gold deliveries un- der the recent contract and other asser- tions of similar nature calculated to mislead and disturb the public mind, wish to say that the actual withdraw als of gold from the treasury since March l, 1895, have been $355, ,347, of which S2Sl, ,OS7 have been for the re- notes, and STA, ,260 for the redemption of United States notes.
 Tn regard to the excess of govern ment expenditures over receipts, it is well known the latter is rapidly in creasing and that up to this time nothing has been received from the income tax and very little from sugar duty, both of which will be i'm portant elements of government re- ceipts in the future. There is plenty of money in the treasury to pay the ap- propriations, and the statement in some articles, that if the treasury had the money the passage of the enor- nous appropriations would lead to the immediate disbursement of immense sums of money, is totally untrue. There is question of law as to when the appropriation for the payment of the sugar bounty becomes available, and until that question is settled it will be impossible to make any pay ment hereunder. Moreover, the claims for bounty must be adjusted be- fore payment, since payment must be made pro rata if the appropriation is insufficient.
 "The total available cash in the treasury amounts to SS3,37 40j, over and above the $lOO, 100000 allowed to cover the gold reserve, which is SS9, 745, 5,594.11. The treasury officials have no anxiety as to their ability to meet all obligations in the immediate future with ease and are confident the eX- pected revival of business will assure the future"

CINCINNATI, March 0.-The steamer Longfellow of the Cincinnati, Memphis x New Orleans packet line was to have left for New Orleans last night, but was delayed by the fog. This morning the boat went all right until within short distance of the piers of the Chesapeake & Ohio bridge, when the currents began to interfere. As the bow pointed to the Kentucky shore, the wind blew the smoke in such a way as to entirely blind the pilot. The next moment the vessel crashed against the pier, striking near the boilers.
