ANOTHER WINERY BURNED.
The Second in Santa Clara County
Within a Few Days.

SAN JOSE, Nov. 24.-The big winery
of Captain J. p. Crossley, at West Side,
was totally destroyed by fire shortly
after midnight last night The total
loss is $4,000, with insurance of slight
ly over $4,000. The Continental In
surance Company had a risk of S1S,-
900, the Northwestern National of &c.
OO0 and the Westchester of 81 200.
The origin Of the fire so far is a
mystery. The residents near the win
cry were awakened by the glare. but
when the fire was discovered it was
under such headway that nothing could
be done. The insurance men consid-
cred the risk a good one, and say they
are unable to explain the fire, except
on the theory that it was incendiary
However, to-day's Investigations may
show how the fire originated
Many thousands of gallons Of wine
We're stored there, and much of it was
valuable. The loss is largely upon the
wine, though, of course, the buildings,
machinery and appliances cut a con-
siderable figure. The estimate of $780,
O00 loss is said to be a conservative
one by those familiar with the prop
erty
This is the second big winery burned
here in a few days, that at the FL Quito
farm, owned by Captain E. E. Good
rich, having been destroyed but recent
ly. The cause of that fire has not been
definitely explained.

CHARGED WITH MURDER.
A Physician and the Husband of q
Woman Who Died Monday.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov 24-Dr.
Samuel Hall and John Coakley, the
husband of the woman who died Mon
day evening at 6 O'Clock as the conse-
quence of a criminal operation, and
whose body was stopped at the ferry
yesterday afternoon by Coroner Haw-
kins, We're this morning formally charg-
ed with murder
Warrants were issued by Judge Con-
Ian, and Detectives Crockett and Sill
vey were detailed to make the arrests.
Neither Hall nor Coakley could be To-
Gated, although the detectives worked
hard all morning to trace them At
Halls office, in the building at IA Nc
AlliSter street, the detectives were told
that Hall had gone to the country. He
had left word that he intended to visit
his ranch near San Jose, but the Off
GERS have little hope of finding him
there. 1t is suspected that the physi-
clan, who was once before charged with
murder, tried and acquitted, is unwill-
ing TO risk another trial for a similar
offense.
Coakley, the husband of the dead wo-
man, has also disappeared He hung
about the Morgue yesterday afternoon
until Autopsy Physician John Gallag-
her had decided that the woman had
died Of criminal operation, and not of
cardiac aneurism, as the certificate of
death stated. Directly after that an
nouncement by DR.. Gallagher Coakley
vanished, and left no trail. Whether
the men fled together or whether their
ways diverged, is a question as yet
unanswered by the detectives

THE DUNHAM SUSPECT.
Not Yet Known Whether the Man
Arrested Is the Murderer

SAN JOSE, Nov. 24.-"The Sheriffs
office has been in communication with
the authorities at Van Buren, Ark, for
four days." said Sheriff Lyndon this
morning. We have no definite knowl-
edge to go upon as yet, and cannot say
how closely the suspect fits Dunham
We expect to know more as soon as
the mail can reach us from Arkansas,
as We have ordered full particulars and
photographs by mail, which should
reach us in some three or four days at
most"
1t was also given out at the Sheriff's
office that they We're looking up other
suspects. This seems to be going on
continually, and many cases never be-
come public. In the Arkansas case
like numerous others, the arresting Off
GERS feel sure they have the right party.
The officers here can neither affirm nor
deny, until they get fuller informa-
ton.

three weeks, to confer with the other

mittee of the syndicate that bid in the

Since the bidding in of the road it has
generally been believed that Mr.. Clarke

New York it was said his object was
to accept the Presidency of the road,
although this was denied by Mr.. Clarke.

We have uniformly

that will merit your
confidence in it and

gain is the legiti-

we can do it. We saw

FIRST THE COUNTRY.
PRESBYTERIAN Church
Established.

The congregation of the First Norwegian
PRESBYTERIAN church of the city, located at
Twenty avenue south and Eighth
street was dedicated yesterday afternoon,
and the congregation which, for five years
has known no home. will henceforth have its
permanent place Of worship. The dedication
of this church is also of considerable i'm
portance to the presbytery of the country i'll
general, as it is the first and only Norwegian
Presbyterian church in the United States.
The dedication sermon was preached by
Rev. A. w Wright, pastor at large of the
St. Cloud presbytery. He spoke upon ''The
Glory Of the Church. and paid particular at
tenton to the Importance this new church
plays in the propagation of the Presbyterian
creed among the Norwegians. Other speakers
were Rev. A. B. Nichols, Rev. Pleasant Hun-
ter. Rev. S. H. Beaven, Rev. Joseph Cochran.
The congregation which yesterday dedicated
its new home was organized in 1892 with ten
members. Up to the present time worship
has been conducted in halls and various
places. on the South side. The growth OF the
CONGREGATION has been small, as it only NUM-
bers forty at the present time, but still it
was the opinion that the work coudl better
be extended If the congregation had its own
building. The church was, therefore, built
by the Presbyterian board Of church erection
and at it's expense. Work was commenced
upon the church. which is modest frame

he wasn't badly hurt, so I didn't say

to have asked the stenographer to
read what he had said. I'm sorry now
that 1 didn't. Had I had any idea that
he was going to die, I would have
questioned him. It's too bad. 1 know
that had he lived he would have taken
the stand and cleared me. But now,
after what he has said, it looks worse
for me-"
HE was your friend, wasn't he?"

"Weu I don't care to talk about

Having heard of the postmortem eX-
animation, the prisoner was anxious to
know where the bullet holes were.
Continuing, the prisoner said: "Only
one side of the story has been given
so far. They have no evidence to con-
vict me. My attorney can clear me
easily, and, if L could talk myself, 1
would not need a lawyer to take my
case and have me acquitted. I have
been in prison, where we are not al
lowed to talk, for such a length of
time that 1 have almost forgotten how

pressed it, the baby" of the family.

''There is no season of the year which has
more real dangers than the present"
This remark was made by an eminent
scientist who had been a close observer Tor
many years. Thus continuing, he said;
People who have passed through the sum-
mer, even if they have taken vacation, are
more or less in a rundown and exhausted
condition at the opening of the fall season.
The muscles have become relaxed, the pores
CT the skin are open, and the heat of the body
causes exposure to drafts, which are none the
less dangerous because they are not felt.
The great danger from all this is pneu-

repulsed him, until finally a reporter,

him to have snack with him. 1t was
a good snack, too, and it took all the
reporters money, but he said it was a
satisfaction to him to know that the
poor man had one square meal at last.
