thirty and forty had the necessary amount
and handed it over TO the firm. Each got
receipt, which is in the form of a promis-
sorry note, the intention apparently being
that, in the event of trouble, it could be
claimed that the money was received as q
loan.
They were all told to return yesterday
morning when situations would be as
signed to them. They went there, but 20
their establishment r. @. Marian & Son
had disappeared. The only thing found
in the office was an unpaid printers bill
for printing their business cards.
Inquiry ELECTED the fact that an elderly
man had engaged the room, but it was
young man who received the applicants
and got the money in exchange for the
promissory notes. He rold them all that
his father was out locking for positions
for them.
Several of the duped applicants hurried
to the Police courts and told their stories
to the Prosecuting attorneys. To cover
the case warrants were sworn out charging
John Doe" Marian with obtaining money
by fraud. trick and device. which is
felony.
Among those who swore to warrants
were Mrs. Elizabeth Ault, 1860 Howard
street; A. B. West, 518 Webster street;
and w. T. Schoonmaker, Volcano, Amador
County.
1t is estimated that the swindlers have
netted between $500 and $1,000 from their
victims, and the proba bility is that they
have left the City with their ill-gotten'
gains.

TROUBLE AT SAUSAL|TO,
Property.0wners Will Contest
the Proposed Widening of
the Streets.
Surveys That Bring Many Residences
Out Upon the Public
Highways.

SAUSALITO, CAL, Feb 10.-The Marin
Press says: The residents of Sausalito are
very much excited on account of the
trouble now brewing over the road and
property lines of the town. AS was stated
some time ago, the property-owning resi-
dents are becoming alarmed, and nearly
all of those against whcm charges have
been brought for infringing upon town
property have placed the cases in the
hands of attorneys. and, as far as indica-
tions show, are preparing for legal battle.
Last Monday the Town Trustees held
another public meeting to discuss the
situation, and, after much consideration.
it was decided to place the matter in the
hands of a judiciary committee, composed
of I. "a. Hughes. John H. Dickinson and
Major o. G. Miller of the Town Board of
Trustees.
Until the committee makes its report at
meeting to be held next week the matter
will rest.
Some time ago THE CALL stated that the
Trustees ofSausalito had decided to widen
the streets OF that town to the full extent
sixty feet-which the original surveys of
the town called for. If the streets are
wldened many fences and yards will be
upon the public highways, and in some
cases the surveys bring houses half on the
street and half on private property.
Many OF the persons whose PROPERTY in
fr1nges on the streets have asserted that
under no conditions will they move their
fences or houses or anything that the town
claims as its property, and which thev
have occupied and considered as BELONGING
to them 81

it will be benefit to the dealers.
AThe brewer who promises to furnish all
the beer. needed is all right and ready to
stand by his promise as soon as we assure
him the necessary amount. needed to ena-
Bile him to meet the demand. We have
the satisfaction of knowing that the union
of brewers does not know who our man is,
and it will not know until we are ready to
make the announcement.
''The first proposition was that certain
number of shares at 500 each should be
subscribed in q corporation to be started
by this brewer, but while there are many
small dealers who favor this idea thev do
not feel that Shey can afford to advance
that much money, so it has been decided
to fix the price OF stock at $25 a share and
to allow any one to take one or more
shares, but no one holding more than one
share will be allowed more than one vote
"We feel confident that we will be sue
cessful in the end, Notwithstanding the
fact that the union of brewers has pur-
chased the Lux, the last of the breweries
in this City that was holding out. 1t now
has secured every brewery in the City,
Frank Marty. the leader of this move
ment for cheaper and for better beer, is a
good-natured, stout German, who mas been
engaged in business in this City since 1872,
being at one time proprietor of the San
Bruno Hotel. Before that he was for
eleven years in Santa Clara County, part
of the time in San Jose.

Police Are Now Confident That
the Woman Did Not Com
nit Suicide.
PROBABLY LEFT THE CITY.
A Suburban Train Conductor Saws
He Had Passenger Answering
Her Description.

TACOMA, WASH, Feb. 10.-The most
thorough search that has ever been made
in this section has resulted in there being
absolutely nothing discovered which might
lead to the solving of the mystery
surrounding the disappearance of Mrs.
Arthur B. Cody of Chicago. There is not
an acre of outlying land within radius
OF a mile which has not been carefully
gone over. Thus far there has not been
the faintest clew to the whereabouts of the
unfortunate lady.
A party under the direction of the police
yesterday made a final effort to raise the
body of the woman, if she had drowned
herself, by exploding large quantities of
dynamite in the bay. The charges were
placed at intervals from the foot of
Fifteenth street to the steamship dock, and
the surface was closely watched. The only
result was the destruction of several
hundred pounds of fish, the bay being
white with them.
1t is now considered that whatever has
become OF Mrs. Cody, she did not commit
suicide by drowning along the water front.
The police now have the idea that she
left the city and has gone as far as the
money she had on her person would carry
her. 1t is believed she purchased the re-
volver to protect herself, and she had
something like $50 in her purse when she
left home. They believe she made long
trip southwark. There is a strong feeling,
also, that she is in or near Seattle.
Another late clew is that of the conductor
of Lake Park suburban train, who recog-
nized in Mrs. Cody's photograph the like
ness of a lady he had carried in the past
two weeks, and further search among the
people at Lake Park brought out the fact
that lady answering her description and
carrying shawl similar to Mrs. Cody's
was seen walking along tho county road
leading out of town.
The search in this vicinity is being prose
cuted as vigorously as ever tonight, hun
dreds being attracted by the handsome re-
ward offered by the Chicago lawyer.

POINT BONITA BoUIEYARD.

Congressional Delegates Havc Ree,s In
terestcd ~, the Project.
MILL VALLEY, CAL, Feb. 10.-A' deter
mined effort is being made, with an ap-
pearance of concerted action and money
behind it, to have the proposed road from
Sausalito around the coast to the Govern
ment reservation at Point Bonita built
Senator Perkins and Representative Bar
ham have the matter in charge and are
earnest in their endeavors to have the
Government take a hand in the construc-
ton of the road. A well-known gentleman
of Sausalito was here during last week and
succeeded in getting promises of material
support in the way of money from some of
the residents in Mill Valley.
With an end-of-the-nineteenth- century
boulevard extending from San Rafael,
through Sausalito and around the coast to
the Government reservation the southern
part of Marin County could boast as pretty
a driveway as could be found in the State
of California.
Secretary Thomas Fottrell of the Mill
Valley improvement Club said that the
organization OF which he is secretary
would do all in its power to aid in the
building of the road, and thought that
some means would soon be taken to raise
sufficient funds to build the driveway.

PHEN1X, ARIz., Feb. 10.-Dr. Richard
Smith, a prominent citizen OF Salt Lake
City and an elder of the Mormon church,
arrived here this morning, the express
purpose of his visit being 10 inspect the
advantages of the Salt River Valley, the
intention being to found Mormon colony
here. He will remain two weeks and will
then return and make his report
Mesa City is thriving town nineteen
miles northeast of here, and is settled al
most exclusively by Mormons, who came
years ago, simultaneously with the first
influx of Gentiles to Salt Lake City. The
climate and general conditions of Mesa
City and Salt Lake are practically the
same. Aside from this, however, the ad-
mission of Utah to the Union has pro-
duced conditions objectionable to one ele-
ment of the Mormon church They have
never taken kindly to the Gentle, and
now, since the latter class threatens to
gain political, commercial and social SUI
premacy, the Mormons are beginning to
look for other fields.
DR.. Smith says his colonists will come
from Salt Lake, Lehi, Ogden, Park City
and American Forks, and that the first
body will probably consist of seventy-fYe
to 100 persons.
