sent to Carson to look into the affairs of
the postoffice there and to investigate GER
tain reports regarding the mental and
physical condition of Postmaster Bell.
He found that Bell had been drinking
heavily. that he was almost insane on the
subject of spiritualism and that he was $50
short IN his accounts. This sum was made
good by Bells bondsmen. Otto Schultz,
John Rosser, Edmund James, l.. H. Bell.
Edward Burlington and Thomas Rickey.
Bell was removed and Edmund James was
given in charge of the postoffice as acting
postmaster for the sureties.
Inspector Thrall found that Bell was
penniless, and by dint of questioning the
Inspector drew out of him the details Of the
manner in which he had been induced to
give up $110O.
About SIX months ago Bell and Albert
Jaqua, railway postal clerk, became con-
verts to Spiritualism. They held nightly
seances in the postoffice in the midst of
mail pouches and cancelled stamps and
practiced writing by impulse of the
spirits. On one of those occasions Jaoua
sat down at desk and in disguised
hand wrote the following message, which.
he said, had been inspired by the spirit of
ex-Postmaster Rodman, an old friend of
Bells:
Don't make the investment that YOU con.
template; have something in view.
RoDMAN
at that time Bell had been talking about
buying ranch with $500 which he had
in the Hibernia Bank, which was the
investment referred to in the message. 1t
created naked effect upon the mind of
the credulous Postmaster, for Rodman on
his deathbed many years before had asked
Bell to forgive him for not leaving him
anything in his will. Rodman added. "I.
there is hereafter, I'll make it all right
with you some day before you die"
After the seance in the Carson postoffice.
Jaqua was transferred to San Francisco.
and soon after his arrival visited Professor
Van de We're, and was favorabIy impressed
with his alleged spiritual attainments.
He SO wrote to Bell, and requested the
Postmaster to correspond with the pro.
fessor. The request of Jaqua was COM
piled with and in response to his letter
came one from Professor Van de We're.
with this message:
They told me for you not to make any in
vestments as yet.
In the same letter the professor inquired
OF Bell as to who were "they," he not hav-
ing been able to get their names from the
spirits Bell replied that he did not know
OF any familiar spirits, except Rodman and
White.
Shortly after this event the Carson Post
master came to this City and called at Van
de Vere's Office. He took his seat in the

the elegant observatory which crowns the
summit of Strawberry Hill in the park
his'magnanlmous offer was made by the
donor to the Park Commissioners for the
benefit Of the people of this City about
five years ago. At that time Straw besry
Hill attracted very few visitors-almost
none at all on foot.
Mr.. Sweeny at first erected one story,
which was found to be such. convenience
and gave such general satisfaction that he
determined to add another story ana en-
circle the interior with a balcony, from
which more commanding view could be
had of the landscape. The view overlooks
Alameda, Oakland, San Francisco Bay and
the islands therein, Mount bio, Mount
Tamalpais and the Farallon Islands, far
out In the ocean.
The construction of the first story cost
$15, 600; to add the second story involved
an additional $4,000 But this is not all.
Mr.. Sweeny has made provisions out of
his princely estate to finish the observa-
tory by adding still another story, then to
cover the whole with u glass roof The
expense of this additional work has been
estimated and provisions made for carrying
into effect the donors plans.
It has been Mr.. Sweeny's ambition to
give to the people of San Francisco for the
generations TO come place or which he
once said, 'From which to see all the pic
lures painted by nature"
Thomas U. Sweeny was born in New
York, aud started from New York City
December, 1851, on sailing vessel loaded
with powder and other merchandise for
Chagres. The party went up the Chagres
River in a rowboat to Gorgona, and walked
across the isthmus, about twenty miles, to
Panama. He sailed from Panama on the
steamer Monumental City, and arrived in
San Francisco March 4, 1852, after pas
sage of forty days from Panama to
San Francisco.
He stayed in San Francisco two days and
then went to Sacramento. Later on he
went to Diamond Springs, in the gold
mines. with 81 so in his pocket. Shortly
after his arrival at the mines his fortunes
began to mend. To-day he is one of the
richest men in the City and the owner of
a great deal of valuable property south of
the park.
The present is the second stroke of par
alysis which has prostrated Mr.. Sweeny.
But his attending physician, DR.. Bolts
ford, has every hope that in the course of
few days his patient will be UP and about
his usual business, as it is thought none
OF the vital organs have been affected.

answer any questions whatever. He was
taken into the City Prison and was ordered
to turn over the contents OF his pockets to
the sergeant at the desk. Fifteen or
twenty dollars in coin, a package of letters,
garnet scarfpin, garnet ring and a
large revolver were his effects. The pistol
was the cause of charge of carrying
concealed weapon being placed against
his name. Not being able to furnish 5000
bail, Van de We're was locked up.
Professor Eugene at first denied that he
had received any money from Bell. but
finally admitted that he had received $l75
for sittings at 81 sitting. BY advice of
Eugene said that he had not the money,
and offered 5000 diamond ring as security
until to-day. Then. at his own request,
he went out with detective and got the
coin.
az received this money voluntarily" said
Professor Eugene, land I pay it back as
voluntarily"
Postmaster Bell put the cash in his
pocket and an officer put Eugene in Jail.
Captain Lees ascertained that the name
of C. M. Hodson did not appear in the
Chicago Directory. although several other
Hodsons are mentioned. In the list of
lawyers there is no one of the name of
Hodson.
The prisoners will be brought before
Judge Low this morning.
The conduct of Postal Clerk Jaqua led
the officers to believe at first that he was
involved in the conspiracy to swindle old
man Bell, but after the arrest of the two
professors Captain Lees said that he did
not believe that Jaqua had anything to do
with the matter, he being as cranky as
Bell on spiritualism.
There is an impression abroad. however,
that Jaqua will be an important witness
for the people. No complaint will be
made against him.
Mrs. Eugene, the wife of Professor Eu-
gene, placed her diamonds valued at $1,000
with Judge Low last night as guarantee
Of her husbands appearance in court when
wanted.

DIR. JAMES ESTATE.

The Ownership OF It VIII Be Tested in
the Guardianship Proceedings.
The peculiar fight which is in progress
over the estate of DR.. Charles G. James
will first show itself when the guardian
ship of little Milen James, the alleged
son of the doctor, comes up for a hearing.
When DR.. James died it was suddenly
discovered that his Iandladv's daughter,
Laura Millen, laid claim to being his
widow, and the son which was born to her
soon after was put forth as his son. Since
the birth of the boy the mother has ap-
piled for letters of guardianship over him,
and the case will come before. Judge Coffey
on April "a. She alleges that the boy has
an estate of considerable value, it being q
SON. IS interest in the 70,000 estate left by
James. When this matter comes up a
contest will be entered on the ground that
the son has no interest in James estate,
as he is not James son, and upon that
point the case will be tried. If the son s
claims are set aside the mothers will fol-
low, and if his claims are upheld so will
her position be assured.

Pending the return of Inspector Thrall
to this City with the Carson Postmaster
Captain Lees had the mediums shadowed
by detectives, who, concealing their real
character, had several sittings with Eugene
and Van de We're, and from statements
siderable valuable evidence.
The captain had arranged that Bell
should have an interview with the medi-
ums in the hearing of witnesses, and that
those interviews-which were to be on the
subject of the Scotch millions-were to be
prolonged for several days, so as to
completely trap the schemers. But
at l o'clock yesterday afternoon a
CALL reporter visited Inspector Tbrall in
the Appraisers building and asked for GER
tain details of the story. The information
was refused, but the knowledge that The
CALL had the story precipitated matters,
and Captain Lees detailed Detectives
Egan, Graham and Silvey to arrest the
professors on warrants issued by Judge
Low, the charge being grand larceny by
trick or device.
When the prisoners were taken into
Captain Lees Office they were subjected to
brief examination. Van de We're admit
ted that he had received 500 from Bell for
professional services asa aclairvoyant. and he
denied that he had received any larger sum
than that. Captain Lees asked him whether
he had received the money on account of
the legacy in Scotland or not. Van de
We're began to speak, but suddenly
checked himself and bluntly declined to
