TOLD OF DEATH
IN A DREAM
Strange Incident Connected
With a Gas Asphyxia-
tion Case.
Miss Jennie Ward Appeared to
Her Friend and Bade
Her Good.by.
NOT DISCOVERED IN TIME.
Mrs. Cecilia Slow of Turk Street
Heard The Woman Moan AMI
She Called in Help.
NOT DISCOVERED IN TIME.

Jennie Ward, domestic living at 2l6
Hospital early yesterday morning suffer-
ing from gas asphy yxiation. The physi-
clans said the case would probably prove
fatal.
From all appearances it was case of ac-
c:dent, for there is no reason given for the
young woman desiring to end her life.
She went to bed about 10 O'Clock the night
before in good spirits. Although out of
mploym ment Miss Ward could always find
a hoc,e with her uncle and aunt, who are
well to do.
Associated with the asphyxiation is a
feature of a psychological nature. 1t was
presented by the statement of Mrs. Cecilia
Slow, who lives in the same house with
Miss Ward and with whom she was on
very friendly terms. Mrs. Slows state
ment was as follows:
MRS. Maggie Hahn. Miss Ward and
had been together in my room during the
preceding evening" said she. land at 10
o'clock Jennie said she was going to bed.
Mrs. Hahn was staying with me, as my
husband is out of town. About o'clock
this morning 1 awoke from a horri BILE
dream, which caused me to arouse Mrs.
Hahn.
"'Something is the matter with Jennie
l said to Mrs. Hahn, 'for 1 dreamed Of
her."
81 dreamed that Jennie came into our
room and, placing her hands on Mrs.
Hahn's head and on mine, said: Good by,
Cecilia. good-by, Maggie; the time has
come for me to part with YOU AS she
spoke she changed her hand from my
head aud placed it over my heart, which
caused me such feeling of oppression and
suffocation ttat l could not breathe, and
that was what woke me. / knew that
something was the matter with Jennie"
".You have had nightmare; go to
sleep said Mrs. Hahn. l could not sleep,
and the dream made such an impression
upon me that determined to see il Jen-
ME was ali right. When l reached her
door / heard her groaning, and | could
smell the gas that escaped from the key
hole.
II knocked on the door and called her
name, put she did not answer so | went
to the landlady and we entered the room
through the window OF an adjoining room,
and we found Jennie almost dead. The
gasjet was turned only half way round.
Jennie was very absent-minded, and l
believe she must have got up TO light the
gas and failing to find match went back
10 bed and forgot that the gas was on. /
don't believe in dreams. but this was
strange one, for it took me to Jennie's
bedside when her life was in great
danger"
The statement made by Mrs. Slow was
fully substantiated by Mrs. Hahn, who is
much impressed by the coincidence, IL
such it can be called
At a late hour last night Miss Ward was
still alive, but with little hopes for her
recovery.

AS lawyer he would say that the de-
nuncia.ion in the Democratic platform of
the President for calling out the Federal
troops to save lie and property was one
of the most radical and revolutionary ut
terances made since 1861.
There was another declaration in the
Democratic platform = q contemptibIe
Russian anarchistic attack upon the high
est tribunal in the Nation.
Mr.. Cushn.an, on being introduced to
the audience, was presented by Theodore
Reichert with bouquet of golden chrys.
anthemums in his most graceful manner.
If Mr.. Cushman had been a lady Mr..
Reichert could not have made the pre-
sentation more gracefully.
MIR. Cushman gained The good will and
sympathy of his hearers in his first few
sentences, and held them well in hand
until the close. He thanked the ladie s
who had assembled to hear him, and said
that the time was soon coming when
women would have an equal voice and
vote IN the affairs OF the Nation, and he
added that he could not see that there
was. any difference between the refined
brain of a woman and that of man.
On the subject of the denunciation of
the Supreme Court by the National Demo2
cratic Convention he said:
'If the Supreme Court of the United
States is to be criticized l want that criti-
cism to emanate from man who stands
before the country with his honor unim-
peached, and not from the man who par
doned and let out of the Illinois peniten-
tiary anarchists whose hands we're reeking
red with the blood of American citizens" I"
In reference TO Bryan Mr.. Cushman
described him as ''this new Democratic
soap-bubbe filled with Nebraska wind :"
and he raised shout of laughter when
he said that during the four years of Har-
rison's administration the people were so
busy making money that they didn't have
time to think, but now the people had
more time than anything else.
Not one of the silver orators had at
tempted to explain. how this free 8 liver
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-31

was to get into circulation. He told a
funny story of Democrat who asked him
! whether he would have TO go down to the
! Sub-Treasury for his free silver or whether
it would be sent up to him. The speaker
] informed the anxious Democrat that if he
would send his address to Congressman
! Mcguire that gentleman would send him
his free silver and would pay the express
charges on ii.
1t seemed to have escaped the memory
of the silver orators that this country has
been under the gold standard for many
years, and that 1t was always prosperous
under Republican administration. Not
the free coinage of silver is wanted, but
the free coinage of American labor into
American products to be sold in Ameri-
can markets to American men and women
Another reference to Bryan exhibited
the quaint diction of the speaker. In say
ing that he formerly lived in Nebraska
and knew Mr.. Bryan he said: 81 knew
him as we'll as if | had went through him
with lantern"
He followed with an anecdote of a
Democrat who listened to one of Congress-
man Bryan's speeches in 1890 and said
that he wanted change.
When the speaker saw him after the
change had taken place the poor man told
him that he had worn his old pants so
threadD bare that he had become ashamed
of and had turned them inside out and
was wearing them that way. Mr.. Cush-
man predicted that if the Democratic
party were allowed to continue in its own
sweet way the poor man would have no
breeches at all.
On the subject of free coinage Mr.. Cush-
man said that there is not. never was and
never would be free coinage coin worth
more than the bullion in it. He asked
how it was that when the law fixed the
ratio of gold and silver coins the gold and
silver dollars separated from that value
from 15 10 10 30 to l. A coin cannot rise
above its bullion value in the markets of
the world.
Mr.. Cushman told of letter be had re-
ceived from Fred Grant, son of Ulysses s.
Grant, in which ne said his father had
always taken the stand that it was great
misfortune for any nation to have for its
coinage basis any metal about which
there might be the least element of un-
certainty.
when the laboring man shall receive a
Bryan dollar for dollars worth of labor
he will receive SO cents and will trust in
God for the remaining AZ cents. There
never was time since Noah left the ark
when human labor was paid higher than
it was in the United States when Harri-
son was PRESIDENT" were sentences which
evoked enthusiastic applause.
The audience was thrown into merri-
ment by Mr.. Cushman's reference to Mr..
Bryan's declaration that free coinage
would cause the value of the gold dollar
to fall. and in the same speech that it
would make the silver dollar as good as
the gold dollar.
"Why, my friends" added the speaker,
"the man who made that statement was
so crooked that he couldn't walk about
the block without meeting himself on the
the other side"

WORK FOR WORDEN.
The San Francisco Labor Council Will
Adopt Active Measures Next
Thursday Evening.


The San Francisco Labor Council met
last night at 1859 Mission street. In the
absence of President Burns Andrew Furu-
seth occupied the chair.
A communication was received from the
Sheet and Plate Gaziers' Union, asking
that efforts be made to form such union
in this CITY. as the intent is to make such
organization National. The matter was
referred to the organizing committee. :.
Several communications were received
from Candidates for office, but on account
of their length were simply placed on file.
Some of the delegates made vigorous OBJ
lection to the reception OF the communities
lions ON the ground that the Labor Coun-
Gil is not political body.
1t was decided that the committee on
the case of S. D. Worden, sentenced to
capital punishment for n-wrecking,
should meet next Thursday evening at
7:3O O'Clock. 1t is probable that active
measures tending to Communication of
Worden's sentence to life imprisonment
will then be taken.
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-31

Mr.. Cushman, tall, slab side, crooked
shouidered young man, with clear voice
and the most awkward of gestures, but
full of animal magnetism, kept his hearers
spelIbound for two hours last night.
Sam Booth and an excellent quartz t
furnished vo cal music 10 the delight of
their hearers, who encored again and
again.
Among the citizens on the platform were
Charles +. Crocker and E. F. Preston. II.
N. Clement presided over the meeting and
introduced Judge &. Van r. Paterson as
the first speaker.
Judge Paterson was warmly greeted
with round of long-continued applause
and began by saying that it was about
seventeen years since he had attempted
to make political speech. He had been
content to remain silent and vote, be-
lieving that the newly elected Presi-
d dent and his Cabinet would discharge
their duties with patriotism and
fidelity to the constitution, conf
dent that no lasting injury would
be done to the country, no matter who
might be elected. But in this present
conflict he saw that something was press
ing against the framework of the State
and that there was imminent danger to
Republican institutions. 1t was the duty
of his hearers next Tuesday to avert thai
danger, and he added significantly: "It
will be averted. The only thing left to do
is to see with how great emphasis it shall
be averted."
The speaker spoke of the ascendancy of
American women in tins campaign. and
said that it would be but II very short time
before all the members of all the political
parties would be falling over one another
to ask favors of American womanhood at
the polls.
He believed in the necessity for the COM
pletion of the Nicaragua canal, in reci-
procity and other issues that are going
