FILKINS AND BRIDEN
Held Over to Answer on Charges of
BURGLARY


c. w. Filkins and Jasper Briden, ar
rested several days ago at San Diego by
Detective Goodman on three separate
charges of burglary, had their examina-
tion before Justice Morrison yesterday
afternoon. On the 9th of July they were
charged with having burglarized Rich
ardson's grocery store at the corner of
Third and San Pedro streets, from which
quantity of cigars and other articles
were taken. Later, on the Sd of August,
the same men are charged with having 8
entered Adolph Spadino's saloon, at the
corner Of Second and San Pedro, ana
stealing $40 from the till, besides maxim &
away with a glass keg filled with whis-
ky. The third burglary which has been
placed to their credit is that of Watts
bicycle store on Figueroa street, from
which three wheels were stolen. Briden
was bound over for trial on all three
charges, but the evidence against Fill
kins was not strong enough to hold him
on the charge of burglarizing Watts
place. He was held for the other two
burglaries, with bail fixed at $500 for
each offense.
Frances Melendez, woman of the
town, VINO mad llved with the Two men
in a Spring street lodging house and
was found with them at San Diego, was
one Of the witnesses called. She admit
ted having seen some of the stolen prop
erty in their possession.
Filkins Is an ex-convict and has
served time in eastern prisons. He had
been arrested several times here On
minor charges before he fell into the
hands Of Detective Goodman, but was
never convicted.

A FUGITIVE SUICIDE
Henry Wischmier Was Badly Wanted
for Various Crimes


1t develops that Henry Wischmer
who died by his own hand on last Thurs
day, was a fugitive from justice. He
was wanted here as well as in several
other places on charges Of forgery. He
left a letter stating that his action in
taking his own life was due to bodily all
ment and dependency, but the real
cause is thought to have been his con-
stant fear lest he should be detected and
held to answer for his crimes In addi-
ton to offenses committed in other
places, WiSchmier some weeks ago
forged the name Of E. T. Brakeshuler
father of Deputy Constable Brakeshuler
to a check for s14 on the German -Ameri-
can Savings bank. This was accepted
by the Anchor Laundry in payment for
bill of Sc, and IS change was returned.
When the check was pronounced worth
less the transaction was reported to the
police and they endeavored to locate
Wischmier. but he managed to eiude
the officers.
Those who knew Wischmier say that
he has been a source of great trouble and
disgrace to his family during the latter
part of his life. His parents turned him
away from home on account of the dis
reputable career which he was leading
Since then he has not mended his ways,
but has been going from bad to worse,
and has committed numerous crimes in
different parts of the country.
1t seems that he has made other at
tempts to suicide and always by asphyx-
iation. He was wanted in San Francisco
for obtaining money by false pretenses,
but managed to get out of the city with
out being captured. Yesterday no one
appeared to claim the body, and the re
mains were buried in the potter's field
by the undertakers, Robert L. Garrett
& Co.

WOULD BREAK JAIL.

A Socialist and a Forger George Ellis Has
 Tried to Escape From the Clutches of the
 Law.
 George Ellis, the socialist orator who is awaiting trial in the superior court charged with forging the name of Gustave Sarrer of the socialist labor party to q check for S69 which he passed on Oscar j. Hull of East Chapel street, has just been detected in Il scheme to escape from the jail and is now confined in Il dark cell
 Ellis has been in the jail since February II and has been confined in cell where he has had all the privileges accorded to the ordinary prisoners. In cell near by was William Ross, one of the clever check swim dlers who. worked all the meat markets in the city last winter and was afterwards captured i'll Providence. It seems that Ellis and Ross were in the same chain gang or met in some manner so that they were able to communicate. From some premonition of trickery the officials searched Ellis cell and round four saws and files which are usually used to cut prison bars. There were no marks where the tools had been used, but sheriff Spiegel began at once an investiga. tion where the tools came from Ross, i is presumed, gave Ellis one of the saws or files but how he got the others is a mystery. There is no doubt that if he had not been discovered in time both he and Ross would have made an attempt to break jail It is suspected that friends visiting Ellis know something of the implements
