She Loved, Was Deceived and Finally
browns Herself
SAN FRANCISCO, April 11.-Last night a
young woman jumped from an Oakland
ferry boat and was drowned. To-day the
coroner received letter through the
mails, signed Nettie Chase, telling him of
her intention jump into the bay, and
saying that she had been deceived by a
married man and mentioning the name
of Mr.. Dunn as the man who had led her
astray. She said she wished to remain
unidentified and to be buried in the pot
ters' field. She enclosed q letter to Dunn,
which was to be handed to him in case he
should identify her body. This letter tells
of her suffering when she discovered that
he had deceived her and told her he was
already married. The letter says:
"I die not accusing you of having
placed me in my present condition, but
for the love have for you. Hoping to
meet you in heaven, am your true,
broken-hearted Nettie."
The woman was known in Vallejo as
having attempted to kill Q. w. Dunn, a
waiter, on the night Of Jan. 10 last. She
fired two shots at him. one taking effect in
the arm. The woman disappeared in the
darkness and Dunn attempted to hush
the matter up. Every effort to discover
the woman's identity failed. She was
known as "Nettie, |" but no one knew her
last name. Shortly after the shooting sew
eral letters were received by the Vallejo
Chronicle. They we're not published at the
time, as the writer could not be located.
The letters gave the woman's reasons for
shooting Dunn. According to her. he was
veritable Don Juan and had ruined
many girls and married women. He had
been shot at twice by agry women before
she tried to kill him. had once been horse.
whipped by woman and beaten by an
angry husband. She thought 1t her duty
to kill him in order to save other innocent
women. Dunn left Vallejo n short time
ago and it is believed that the woman,
despairing OF being able to kill him,
ended her troubles by taking her own life.

It Concerns the Secretary OF Agriculturs,
and He Acts.
WASHINGTON, April n.-Secretary OF
Agriculture Morton to-day began an In
quiry into the recent increase in tho price
OF meats for the purpose OF ascertaininR
IL any combination In violation OF the
law exists. The secretary's letter OF tn-
structions Is as follows: DR.. Il. ID. Salmon
chief of the bureau of animal industry,
Sir-Furnish at your earliest convenienco
a statement Of the number Of cattle re-
ceived in the stock yards at Omaha, Kan
sas City, East St Louis and Chicago dur
ing the months Of January, February and
March, of the years 1894 and 1896. II 10
important just at this time to ascertain
as nearly as may be from these sources,
what falling of there is In the cattle sup
ply Of the United States as compared with
previous years. In Januory, 1885, cattle
sold for 1910. In February of the same
year, for $5.65. and in March of the same
year, for s5.17H per 100 weight. At the
Kansas City stock yards in 1892, they sold
in the same market in January at $5; In
February, $3.50, and in March, $40 per
100 weight. While In 1898, they sold in
January at $500; in February, $3.50; in
March, $50; and in January, 1894, at the
Kansas City stock yards, they sold at
s5.25 in February, $3.50, and in March,
$4.o0I wish now to ascertain the prices
paid at Kansas City and Chicago during
January, February and March, 1895, and
also the number of cattle received at
these points during this time.
The largest cattle receipts at Chicago,
in any one day, occurred. II is believed,
on April Is, 1892, when 32,677 head were
received, and the largest cattle receipts
at Chicago in a single week were 95,52s
head, received during the seven days end
ing Sept. 10, 1891, and the largest receipts
| of cattle for single month at Chicago
were in September, 1892, when 1856, ,466
head were received.
Be kind enough to instruct the agents
of the bureau of animal industry of the
United States. department OF agriculture,
wherever they may be stationed. to collect
and send in as rapidly as possible all re-
liable data at their command, which. may
tend to truthfully show what diminution,
4 IL any, there is In the cattle supply of the
United States for the year 1895, as COM
pared with the previous years. Also, in.
struct the agents of the bureau of animal
| industry to make thorough inquiry as
to whether. in their judgment, there is any
| combination in violation of the law, by
which q cattle trust is putting up the
price of beef products, while it is putting
down the per capita price of cattle. Very
respectfully yours.

PORTLAND, Ore, April 1.-The new
freight rate from Portland to Spokane
over the o. r. q n. has gone into effect

St. Paul and Spokane. There was q
meeting Of railway officials to discuss the

Fulton Of the Northern Pacific. Assistant
Traffic Manager Shelby of the Great

discussion of the question at issue, but
are not yet prepared to disclose tho re-
suits. Theterritories tributary to Spokane,
and considered by her merchants exciu-
sively theirs, will be invaded by the whole
sailors and the jobbers of this city. and
consequently there have been efforts by
shippers of Eastern Washington counties
to Illustrate the contemplated reduction

taking effect. Eye-witnesses say Sanford

Senator Goebet gave himself up. A large
crowd soon assembled, while threats werc
made in the vicinity OF the bank, the ex-

an old feud existed the immediate cause
of the shooting is said to be the Goebet

of several turnpikes. Senator Goebet
had a bill passed reducing the tolls, and
that made the senator popular with the
people, but was bad for turnspike stock.
Sanford is reported as having used severe

SPRINGFIELD DEMOCRAT: The Pull
man Memorial church, the gift Of
George NJ. Pullman. has been recent
ly dedicated. In handing over the
deed, the "Duke" feelingly referred
to the early religious struggles of his
parents. He neglected to make any
note Of the present day struggles Of
his employees to buy bread, after
rents, water taxes and such like have
been deducted from their niggardlv
wages. As contribution to modern
architecture, the Pullman church
would likely attract attention. but it
is woefully handicapped at the start
in its alleged mission as a reminder
of the meek and lowly Nazarene,
who went about doing good, and who
whose guiding precept was to edo
unto others even rs We would that
they should do unto you" As a
travesty upon the christian religion.
the dukes present role instinctively
recalls the reference in the good book
to the DEVILS aptitude in quoting
scripture.
