DECLARES HIS INNOCENCE.
o. w. Winthrop Charged With
the Murder of Mrs. Jennie
Mathews.
HE WAS vISIBLY AFFECTED
Chief Crowley Given Permission to
Open Supreme Recorder
Linn's Letter.

o. w. Winthrop, assistant superinten-
dent of the Laurel Hill Cemetery, was
formally booked at the City Prison yester-
day afternoon on the charge of numbering
Mrs. Jennie Mathews, SOP Broderick street.
The complaint was sworn out in Judge
Joachimsen's court yesterday by Edwin
Stirling Mathews, the dead woman's hus-
band.
Captain Lees personally served the war
rant upon Winthrop. He went to his cell
and read the warrant to him.
Winthrop was visibly affected. He
asked to see the warrant, and while he
glanced over it his hand shook and his
face twiched.
Captain" said Winthrop, in a voice
that trembled with emotion, sis there no
redress for me2''
The captain said nothing, but shook his
head.
"This is the work of the Examiner" said
Winthrop, with an angry CLEAN in his
eyes. "That paper is trying to hound me
to death. My innocence of this charge
will vet be thoroughly established"
Winthrop was then taken from his cell
and the charge against him entered on the
prison register. He hastily penned notes
TO Attorneys Kyle and Allen informing
questing to see them.
On Sunday Chief Crowley sent dispatch
to Supreme Recorder Linn of Indianapolis
asking his permission, in the interests of
public Justice, to open the letter addressed
to him which was found in Winthrop's
pocket when arrested.
Yesterday morning the Chief received
the following reply: "Open any letter adj
dressed to US. Consult Arnold, our repre-
sentative, who has full power to act.
Original papers mailed"
The Chief handed the dispatch to Cap
tain Lees, but despite the express permits
sion given to open the letter he will not do
SO until he has seen Mr.. Arnold.
The original papers referred to in the
dispatch are the applications made by
Mrs. Mathews for membership in Olive
Branch, Order of Chosen Friends, and for
relief fund certificate.
The inquest on the remains will be held
next Saturday at 9 A. NJ. Coroner Hawkins
has postponed it from time to time at the
request of the police, but now Chief Crow
ley has signified his willingness that the
investigation should take place.
The analysis of the contents of the stom-
ach and bladder is not yet completed, but
Chemist Morgan says his full report will
be ready long before the time set for the
inquest. Strychnine in considerable guam
titles has been found in the remains, but
the exact amount will not be known until
SATURDAY.

THE MISSING EXECUTOR.
Adolph Prinz Believed to Be the Man
Who Committed Suicide at
Salinas.


Salinas.
The man who committed suicide at Sa-
linas, Monterey County, on Friday was, in
all probability, Adolph Prinz, barkeeper
for Albert Hillebrand, 1919 Market street.
In the pockets of the dead mans clothes
were found number of papers and card
bearing the address $40 Second street"
Prinz's father kept a wholesale liquor-store
at that address for several years until he
failed in business.
Adolph Prinz was the executor without
bonds of the estate of Charles Moegling. a
saloon-keeper who died at the German
Hospital about a year ago. The estate
consisted of about $1,000 in cash and realty
valued at $4,000. Prinz should have filed
his first and final account on Friday last,
but he could not be found and a continu-
ance was granted till yesterday, when
further continuance was granted till to-
morrow.
The Sheriff of Monterey County notified
Chief Crowley yesterday that the man be-
among them was Adolph Prinz Attorney
Hoeffer, who represents Prinz in the
Moegling estate, called upon Captain Lees
last night, and said from the description
he believed the deceased was his client.
He had last seen him on Wednesday, when
he said he was going to the country for
day or two. He had been suffering from
| catarrh in the stomach and other COM
plants, and was hardly in his right mind.
| He was not a defaulter to the estate.
| There was between $500 and $500 unae-
counted for vet but he believed receipts
would be found to cover that amount.

Their Differences Brought into the SUI
perior Court.
Dorothy Olsen, by her attorney, A. T..
Barrett, has filed suit against Peter o..
Olsen, otherwise known as P. o. Olsen, to
have the conveyance of certain property in
Alameda County set aside as fraudulent.
This is only continuance of the Olsen
family disputes in Oakland.
The complaint alleges that the plaintiff
is an "old and decrepit German woman
more than 66 years of age, of weak and
wandering mind, illiterate and having
scarcely any understanding of the English
language" and that the defendant sis
young man of dissolute habits, but with an
acute understanding" 1t recites that they
intermarried November IA, 1891, and were
divorced on February 10, 1895; that de-
PENDANT used to beat his wife and refuse to
work, while urging her to transfer her
property to him. that one day in March

FAST TIME FOR FREIGHT.
Seven Hundred New Ventilated Cars
Coming for the Orchard Prod
ucts of California.
this morning.

The Southern Pacific Railroad Company
is preparing to handle large quantity of
California fruit this year. A. N. Towne,
the general manager, is confident that the
equipment Of the road will be equal to the
demands of the traffic.
The seven hundred ventilated cars or
dered some time ago, in anticipation of
increased shipments in this line, are nearly
ready for use. In fact some of the cars are
coming west now.
The rush of business in handling Califor-
MA fruit will not begin before the middle
of June. For six weeks after that date the
powerful engines on the mountain division
will be tested to their full capacity in
hauling the fruit over the hillsi on fast
time.
A few carloads of cherries have gone for
ward from Sacramento in refrigerator-cars
attached to passenger trains. The cost of
this rapid transportation is 50 25 per 100
pounds, exclusive of charges for refrige-
rator.
The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe is
doing fair business in fruit shipments.
II. G. Bush, general freight agent of the
company in San Francisco, figures that the
traffic will be good when the peaches come.
The Atlantic and Pacific can take fruit
through from Los Angeles to Chicago in
six days.

procedure, she says, took place on March
80, 1895, when she made a deed of gift of

that her husband refused and now

Kangaroos are often hunted with dogs
huge, powerful creatures, obtained by a
cross between mastiff and greyhound.
When driven to bay in creek or river the
kangaroo has often been known to seize
one of these half-breeds and drown it by
holding its head under water.
