HERMIT RODMAN

Dwelling


Left Q Fortune Concealed In hts Squalid
Dwelling
SAN JOSE, March S.-Last September
an old fisherman hermit. Charles F.
Rodman, was found dead In his a =
the slough near Alviso. Nothing Iii
a mere grinning skeleton was left when
the remains were found by railroad sec
tion hands. Rodman had been dead for
some time, possibly weeks and rats had
eaten the flesh from his bones Coroner
Secord held an inquest and took charge
of his effects there, which consisted Of
a chair and the ark, which sold Dor $3.50.
George Emery, the purchaser, soon be-
gan to dress well, and later took trip
east. Recently he returned, and efforts
were made to ascertain how he acquired
SO much wealth. While in liquor last
night at Alviso it was drawn out of him
that there was money In the ark, anc
exhibited $1,000 note in proof, and said
there was much more.
Public Administrator Secord today
asked for special letters. Emery was
brought into court on bench warrant
and examined about his wealth. With
much difficulty he was induced to admit
that he found eighty 500 gold pieces and
United States note for $1,000 in the ark.
Emory said there were others, naming
]. Baird as one of the parties. After he
went east he had heard that others got
$2700 In coin out of the ark. Emery's
story is not free one. andis conflicting.
but his statements on the stand and off
show that at least four $1,000 treasury
notes and coin sufficient to make a total
of $4,000 were found. Five years ago
Rodman was known to have $23, 600 in
treasury notes in a bank in San Fran
CISCO He also had other means, and
much of this may have been in the ark
The district attorney will commence suit
to recover the property, and may insti-
tute criminal proceedings.

WASHINGTON, March s.-Most OF
the new senators were on the floor when
Vice President Hobart called the senate

tors were not so prompt in making their
appearance. The galleries. save that re-
served for the diplomatic corps, were
thronged with curious visitors AS soon
as the blind chaplain had delivered his

siderable discussion.
As soon as Senator Davis offered a

erable discussion on the parliamentary
