MISSION VALLEY MURDER
Old Mrs. Sanerock Was Murdered for
Her Money
It Is Now Doubted Whether the Deed Was
Done by Indians Officers
at Work

SAN DIEGO. Oct.6. The inquest in the
case of old Mrs. Sandrock who was found
with her throat cut yesterday in the little
store which she conducted at Mission
Valley, was not concluded until late last
night. The evider ce established the fact
that the woman was murdered for her
money. A purse in which sne was sup
posed to have considerable money was
found ripped open in the little room in
which her body was found. The officers
are very reticent, but it is believed that
they are not now working on the suppo-
stion that the deed was comm tilted by
Indians, although at the inquest testimo.
ny was given that Indians had been seen
near the scene of the tragedy. Mrs.
Sandrock is said to have been insane at
times. and this was claimed by her hus-
band to have been the caus Of their sepa-
ration. She was violent during her In.
sane periods.
The idea of suicide is not entertained
from the fact that in addition to the
bloody knife found near the woman s
corpse club stained with blood was dis
covered in the next room and bruise on
the woman's head showed where il had
been used to stun her before her throat
was cut.
Late tonight 1t is learned that officers
are working On an important clue. They
have found pair of boots which fit the
tracks leading from Mrs. Sandrock's store,
the heels of which also correspond to
marks on the woman's chest, made by
her assailant stamping upon her.

HE is TOO FAT TO BE PRETTY
His Long Hair Is Hanging Down
His Back
An Aged Hobo Who VIII Take nilIion,
More or Less, II He
Doesn't Fail

ALBANY. N. Y, Oct. CAN aged
hobo came into town tonight over the
Schenectady turnpike and journeyed on
to find place in the fields beyond to
camp. His grey hair hung down over
his shoulders, but he held himself crest to
the full stature of six feet, and though
he walked slowly, he steadily covered
ground. He says his name Is Levi Jones,
and that he started last March from Den
yer, COL, to walk to New York and go
thence to Washington any way he pleases
so long as he gets there by the time con-
gress convenes. 1t is for a sic, 600 wager
and he says when the bet was made he
weighed 800 pounds. By the terms of
the wager he says he is to have no money
nor is he to sleep under roof until New
York is reached. A ccordingly he carries
a roll of old quilts and blankets under his
lett arm and gunny sack with cooking
utensils on his back. while in his hands
he carries an old tin can over half full of
tea leaves that have been used several
times. That he did not ask for money to
help him along and rather sought to con-
ceal than reveal his identity, lends color
to his story.
Jones says he has twice hoofed it over
the mountains to the City of Mexico and
has camped almost all over the Rockies
as a mining prospector. He has reduced
his weight to about 1870 pounds.

LORAIN, o., Oct. 6.-While a great

a temporary floor on which many of the
people were standing suddenly gave way,
precipi.ating many men, women and

and between thirty and forty others were
badly hurt. The services were just about
to begin when the accident happened.
Fully 1900 people we're assembled on and
around the platform, which had been
constructed across the foundation OF the
ediiice. The boards forming the tempo

which were supported in the middle by
upright posts. These supports broke
and the floor went down with a crash.
Fully 300 persons were thrown into the

His Attorney Is NettIed at the

STATEMENT OF DR.. GRAHAM
Attorney Deuprey Expresses His TN
bounded Amusement
The Request for Notes Of DR.. cheney's Lee
ture, II Made, Will Prove
Fatal One
Associated Press Special Wire

Associated Press Special Wire
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 6.-Naturally
the subject uppermost IN Attorney
Deuprey's mind was the damaging state
ment made by DR.. Gilbert f. Graham
against Durrant, which was published to.
day. The knowledge that Durrant's
classmats had announced his intention
to go on the witness stand and testify
that the accused had confessed to him
that he had no notes of DR.. Cheney's
lecture, nettled the attorney not little,
although he declared that he was CONF
dent OF breaking Graham down on cross
examination.
'What do think of Graham's state
ment?" said Mr.. Deuprey, repeating the
question asked him, why 1 am amazed
at it. l cannot understand it. Really,
have talked with Graham and he never
mentioned such a thing to me. In fact,
he denied in the presence of four wit
nesses that Durrant had ever made an
improper proposal to him. I have heard
that he was likely to make such a state
ment anu asked him point-blank regard
ing the matter. He declared positively
that nothing of the kind had taken place
during his interview with Durrant. 1
was very favorably impressed with DR..
Graham, and beieved-and believe yet, as
far as that is concerned-that he told me
the truth. He struck me as being a
quiet, Intelligent young fellow, who could
not be led to say anything he did not
mean. But the statement he now make 8
to the police surprises me- :.
"Now, l want to tell you something, I"
continued Mr.. Deuprey, as he shook his
finger imprressively. 1--WE have simply
landed DIR. Graham in an uncomfortable
place. He says now that Durrant told
him that he had no notes of that lecture
and wanted to borrow his (Graham's),
bolster up an alibi. Now, the fact of the
matter Is, Durrant's notes of DR.. Cheney's
lecture were In the possession of General
Dickinson and myself long before Ora
ham ever called at the jail. We had them
In our possession almost from the time
of Durrants arrest. What will DR.. Gra-
ham testimony amount to as against
that?'
"During your interview with DR.. Ora
ham did he not tell yo1 that Uurrant
had confessed that he had no notes Of
DR.. Cheney's lecture and wanted Ora
hans in odrer to copy tn en- and
strengthen his alibi?'
Never in the world" replied Deu-
prey, with emphasis. He never even
intim ated such thing
but suppose Graham goes on the wit
ness stand and testities that such was
the case?'
''Then I will say that he testifies to
something which is untrue. 1 cannot I'M
derstand why he should have made such
a statement to the prosecution"
