MAN AND WIFE KILLED,
An Early Morning Special Runs
Down Robert and Mary
Marshall.
This Occurred Near the Colma Sta
ton, in San Mateo
County.

At about 4 o'clock yesterday morning
the Examiner special. going South over
the Southern Pacific track at high rate
OF speed, when near Colma, in San Mateo
County, ran into wagon in which rode
Robert Marshall and Mary, his wife, kill
ing them both.
The engine drawing the special was No.
1167, in charge of w. H. Hunter engineer.
As the train approached Colma Station,
Hunter saw a double team attached to a
wagon in which rode man and woman
1t was about hundred feet south of the
station and about 400 feet from the track.
| Hunter gave the usual signal, which was
needed, for the driver reined up his horses
within few feet of the track, and the en-
gineer supposing that the team would re-
main there until after the passage of the
train, which it is claimed was running at
twenty-five miles an hour, kept on.
When the locomotive was within $50 feet
from line opposite which the team stood,
the driver suddenly made movement
and his horses started across the track
Whether the horses became unmanagea BILE
and started off, the driver losing control
of them, or whether the driver urged
them on. is not known, but the fact re-
mains that after the team had crossed the
track the locomotive struck the wagon.
Inc occupants were thrown out, the
horses were detached from the wrecked
wagon and ran away. The engineer put
on the airbrakes, but before he could bring
up his train it had gone half mile beyond
the scene of the collision. 1t was backed
up and those on board jumped off to
render assistance to the unfortunate peo-
pie, but their services were not needed, for
both the man and the woman were dead,
the train having passed over both,
mangllng them in a frightful manner.

mains were gathered together, after which

office is in Redwood City, was notified.

THE POLICE RET|REMENTS,
Captains Douglass, Short and
Stone Will Be Pen
stoned.
THERE ARE SEVEN IN ALL.
The Change VIII Take Effect In
Month, When the Vacancies
Win Be Filled.

Three police captains, one sergeant and
three patrolmen were practically retired
from the force last night on account OF
age and length of service in the depart
ment.
The Police Commissioners met and were
in executive session for more than Two
hours. There were twenty-three names
on the list of those who were over so years
of age and who had been in service over
twenty years The business of the meet
ing was summed up in the following
resolution:
Resolred, BY the Board of Police Commission
ers that Sergeant Edward Cohen of the
harbor district Captain William Y. Douglass
of Company A, Captain John Short of Company
B. Captain Appleton W. Stone, in charge of the
City Prison. officers James Harold, A. B.
Asher and James L. Gallagher be notified to
send their applications for retirement to the
Pension Commissioners, 10 take effect on July
90. 1895.
There were twentv-three men on the
force subject to retirement and every name
was considered. Captain Andrew ]. Dun
levy of the harbor police was on the list,
but his fine record stood him well in hand,
and the probability is that he will remain
on the force. The Commissioners we're in
receipt of letters from well-known mer-
chants ana business men extoillng the
merits of the popular harbor captain and
the communications had weight.
Dunlevy has one of the best records OF
any man on the force, and merit, ability
and intelligence are the qualities which
cut the greatest figure with the Commits
sioners.
Commissioners Tobin and Alvord were
seen after the meeting and both gentlemen
said that the successors OF the retiring cap
tains had not yet been mentioned. There
is hardly any doubt that Sergeants Witt
man and James Gillen will be among the
fortunate ones, and Sergeant Robinson
will probably be appointed prison-keeper,
vice Captain Stone. Gillin is one of the
abest officers on the force and one who
has risen from the ranks on merit alone
whitman and Gillen are undoubtedly

had claim against us and I wanted him
to adjust the difference and square the
account.
He procrastinated and I pushed him.
Do think he had anything to do with
Smiths disappearance? Yes, l do; but |
would not like to go so far as to say that
he knows where Smith is at this time.
Il never thought Smith mutiated those
books, and | do not think so now, and,
though L cannot speak my mind freely,
will say that Bresse is concerned in trans
actions that l would like to have ex-
planned.
The talk about my wife has been very
dlsagreeable, and any one who knows me
will readily comprehend that am not the
kind OF man to allow my business to be
transacted in sewing societies. Mrs. Nc
Glautiin is my partner in the true sense OF
is that of a wife and not meddler."
Mr.. Collins, the receiver, said that 1T
would be several days before anything like
true estimate could be arrived at as to
the amount of Bresse's ''draw' on the
firm. The mutilation of the books had
been done by dashing hand. Pages had
been taken out in punches, and 1t will be
difficult to arrive at any estimate inside Of
ten days.
Smiths bookkeeping, he says, is accurate
and methodical. AS an accountant he was
correct and no discre pancies have as yet
been discovered.
Mr.. Lloyd, when asked if he had any
statement to make about the case, said ::
why, there is nothing to say. The part
ners had lost confidence in each other and
naturally there must be separation. 1t
has been said that | advised Mr.. Bresse to
take those moneys.
"When he came to consult me he told
me that he had already taken the money
to make sure of his share in the firm Of
course | advised him to hold on to it.
What else would you do? Here comes
McGlaufiin demanding that everything
be put in his hands. Why don't he pre-
sent his account? Bresse is ready to settle
and if he owes McGlautlin anything will
pay it. But McGlaufiin has as much of
the firms assets in his hand. If, on a set
Element, he owes Bresse we want him to
pay up"

City, where he served with distinction I'M
til called to the Keneseth Israel Congrega-
ton at Philadelphia.
DR.. Krauskopf has by his aggressive and
progressive IDEAS advanced in the ranks
of Jewish preachers until he has now come
TO be looked upon as one of the most sue
cessful workers in his calling.
Among great many things for which
mankind, and particularly the Hebrew
race, has to thank DR.. Krauskopf are the
founding of the Personal Interest Society
of Philadelphia, which has for it's object
the interesting of the richer classes in the
condition of the poorer, and the setting on
| foot of the movement for better tenement,
| houses in large cities, both of which move
| ments have done much already toward
! bettering the condition of the poorer classes
OF Philadelphia, where his efforts have
been personally exerted.
| 1t was at the time of the persecu-
| ton of the Jews by the Russian Gov
| eminent that krauskopf made what has
been considered the best record of his
eventful career. The Jews were being
driven from the Russian empire friendless
and homeless. and it Vas thought best by
many of the more prominent of the race in
this country that assistance be given their
brethren in Russia to enable them to leave
the empire.
DR.. Krauskopf stoutly opposed such a
course, maintaining that it was for the in
| terest OF the Hebrew race and all civiliza-
| ton that the Jews remain in Russia.
| His idea was to colonize them in some
suitable section of the empire. He de-
| clded to go to Russia himself to carry out
| this idea. Knowing that he would be re-
| fused admission to Russia, he sought the
Influence of the State Department, which
| was informed by the Russian Govern
ment that the rabbi could not be admitted
any more readily than any other jew
Meanwhile the matter attracted wide
spread attention in this country and was
freely commented on by the press, so much
SO that bill was framed to be introduce d
III Congress as a retaliatory measure
against Russia, unless American citizens
| were admitted to the empire without re-
gard to their beliefs.
This had the desired effect and DIR.
Krauskopf was allowed to enter Russia,
was given an audience with the Minister
OF Finance, who entered heartily into his
scheme and promised to do all in his DOW
er to influence the Car to consent to the
| plan. Alexander died, however, before
any action was taken, and nothing has as
yet been done by the young ruler in that
direction.
AS an outcome of the rabbits visit to
Russia he proposes to establish in this
country ''model farm" with view to
educating the Jewish race in that line of
| enterprise. To raise fund for the estab-
llshment OF the farm he devotes the pro-
ceeds OF his lectures throughout the coun-
try.
| DR.. Krauskopf will deliver three lectures
curing his stay in the City. His subject

MAMMOTH BEAMS OF STEEL.
Orders Weighing Fourteen Tons Placed
in the Native Sons, Building.

-Four mammoth steel Orders, among the
largest in the world, are to be seen at the
large structure on Mason street, near
Geary, which is being erected for the Ma
tive Sons of the Golden West.
The great beams are known as box
Orders and weigh more than fourteen tons
each. They will be used to support the
be above the ballroom The weight of one
of the beams is an excellent test of tile
floor and walls of the new building, as it is
not probable that the number of dancers
that can be accommodated in the ball
room would make such an aggregate. The
span of the girders is sixty-eight feet. the
depth of the beam four feet ten inches.
They were hoisted by means of much
larger shears than those ordinarily used
and three are now in place
The only set of girders in the City larger
than these are above the library in the
City Hall.

him. He is one of the few men who have
risen from the ranks on his record
Il remember Dunlevy when | was boy
and am perfectly familiar with his record.
He went into the toughest district in the
City when no one else could be got to go
there, and he cleaned out the undesirable
element which had grown to consider
itself superior to the police force. l am
also acquainted with Captain Dunlevy's
record on the water front, and the manner
in which he has handled the strikes down
there has won forI him the respect of
sailor and shipowner alike.
1--WE cannot fill vacancies before they
occur, and there will be no appointm ents
made until July 20. Who the successors

positions. l am not prepared to say who
will be the successors of the retiring cap
tains, and they will not be appointed until
July 20, when the applications for the re-
tlrement will be received from the three
outgoing captains. The only recon-
mendations for promotion will be merit
and competency
Commissioner Gunst spoke in similar
strain, but went little farther and spoke
warmly in praise OF Captain Dunlevy.
I'VE had to go through the whole list, I"
said Mr.. Gunst, "but we could not afford
to retire twenty-three men at one time.
We did not retire any one, for that matter,
but gave the privilege of applying for re-
tirement. The least we could do was to
extend to the officers that courtesy after SO
many years of service. Captain Dunlevy,
OF course, came under the head of retire

although for years he has been practically
buried in the position of captain of the
prison. He was born in Massachusetts,,
and by occupation millwright until he
was appointed on the police force in 1865.
He was detailed for detective duty from
the start. and his work consisted in hunt
ing stage-robbers.
Very few criminals of this class escaped
the daring and courageous officer, and
many tale of the hunt, fight and capture
of bandits he could tell were he so dis
in a battle, shrank into the shadow when
it came to newspaper celebrity, and
pushed forward those who had assisted
him. While he has been in charge of the
prison he has been uniformly courteous
