SUICIDE OR MURDER 2
A witness Refuses to Tell What He
Knows About j. Wa1die's Death.

witness Refuses to Tell What He
Knows About j. Waldie's Death.
There was quite lively scene in the
Coroner's office for few minutes yester-
day. A witness refused to answer ques-
ton, and had it not been for the interview
ton of one of the jurors he would have
been locked up for contempt. The con-
tumacious witness was Edwin Lee, sign
painter, and the inquest was on the re-
mains of James Waldie, who died from gas
asphyxiation at 1907 Fillmore street. Some
one wrote letter to the Coroner lnslnu-
ating that Waldie had been murdered and
asking for searching investigation. Lees
wife is sister of deceased, and it was sus-
pected that Lee wrote the letter In ques-
ton.
When put on the witness-stand Lee was
asked what he knew about the case, but he
declined to answer. Coroner Hawkins in
sisted on reply, and after a spirited
argument the witness said he had seen
Waldie week ago Sunday, and he was
then sober, but nervous and respondent.
When asked if he thought anybody else
had a hand in Waldie's death Lee posi-
lively declined to answer. He said he
wanted to consult with some of the rela-
tiyes OF deceased before answering. The
Coroner got angry and locked him up, but
finally allowed him to go an dhave his con-
sultation. The case was continued till to-
morrow morning, when Lee will be again
put on the stand.

LOOMS TO Be DRUCGED,
Another Day of Revelations in
the Trial Against
SOmerS.
Some Fruit and Flowers Which
Were Suspected by Mrs.
Steiger.

Plaintiff Loomis in the trial OF his case
against Calvin Somers for malicious prose
cution, yesterday expressed his gratitude
in court at having been allowed to present
several facts that had been expressing him
for ten years. :.
During that time" said he, 'smy mouth
has been closed in court and 1 have felt
like a wounded bird with both wings
broken"
Attorney Rix had been asking him
whether he did not possess a fruitful and
fertile Imagination, and as sample asked
him why he had said he was afraid to walk
abroad at one time for fear some one
would stick dagger in his heart.
Loomis opened out on this. He said
that detective named Dogherty had been
employed by Somers to steal from him a
statement made by Somers of LOOMS in
nocence of McClintock's shooting, and also
to secure some letters which Mrs. Tread
well had written to him and which were
believed to be damaging. Dogherty had
first hired one Dugan to take him (Loomis)
into saloon, "iolly him up" and chal-
lenge him to produce the statement, but
LOOMS refused to exhibit it.
On another occasion Dogherty took fruit
and flowers from Somers to his mother,
Mrs. Steiger, but the old lady refused to
even smell them when she ascertained the
sender for fear of inhaling some poison.
Then the relations between Somers and
his detective became strained, and Loomis
said Dogherty came and revealed plot
against himself that had failed.
Dogherty said Somers had told him TO
take Loomis out to "Costa's place." on
California street and Central avenue, and
there treat him to French dinner. There
LOOMS was to be drugged and the precious
statement and letters safely distracted.
The witness had evaded this danger I'M
consciously by stating his dislike for
French dinners and his inordinate prefer
ence for "plain cooking"
The witness also declared his anguish of
mind suffered on two occasions through
having to ride in the ''black Maria owing
to the false charges of Somers. He &C
counted for the fact that he had not tried
to escape from McClintock at the time of
the shooting by saying that he had learned
in the war not to run away, although"
he added, '.we did considerable running at
Bull Run"
perhaps Major Mhoon was behind you
on that occasion, /" remarked Attorney Rix.
mo; the major was engaged in the Red
River compaign at that time" said the
witness.
There was another effort before the case
was continued to Monday to secure the adj
mission of the deposition of Mrs. Somers,
ruled out on the score that wife cannot
testify against her husband.

SLATED FOR RETIREMENT
Officers of the Revenue Marine Who
Will Cease to Draw Pay From
Uncle Sam.

The board of examining surgeons sent
here from Washington to report upon the
standing of various officers in the United
States revenue service has completed its
work and will report 20 the Secretary of
the Treasury in a few days. Several of the
officers in the service have been found too
old or incapacitated for work, SO their re-
tirement has been recommended. They
are First Assistant Engineer Wayson, now
awaiting orders at Port Townsend; First
Assistant Engineer Turner of the revenue
cutter Walcott, Chief Engineer De Remer
of the revenue cutter Perry and Lieutenant
Benham, late of the revenue cutter Hart
ley. Wayson has been a sick man for
wears, and has not been to sea for a long
time. Turner and De Remer have reached
the age limit, and Benham has been almost
totally blind for several years. The retire
ment of these men will make room for the
promotion of number of young men who
have been kept in subordinate rank be-
cause there were no vacancies. 1t is ex-
pected that when the various examining
boards now at work all over the country
have completed their work at least thirty
officers will be slated for retirement.
