A VENTRILOQUIST WILL
WORRY CHIEF |. w. LEES
j. W. WINToN HAS NO LOVE FOR
ISAIAH.
Police Department Put Words
in His Mouth.

Chief of Police Lees is likely to hear
voices in the night and imagine that some
of the unfortunates he has sent into
"durance vile have come back to haunt
him if he continues TO throw suspicion
on J. W. Winton. the clever ventriloquist,
who will shortly make his second bow to
a local audience from the Orpheum stage.
Winton threatens TO stand outside the
bedroom window of the aged chief and
throw his voice into his apartments if
he breaks window in the attempt, for
he is seeking revenge.
The head of the police department
gathered the representatives of the three
morning papers around him on Monday
night and delivered little speech about
some new cleWS he had discovered indi-
eating the guilt of the men who robbed
the strongroom OF the steamship Ala
media Without obtaining permission
from Mr.. Winten he put enough words
in his mouth to have him arrested and
incarcerated for completely in the now
famous robbery At first Winton ap-
thought it would add to his fame as a
mimic and also throw romance around
him. Later, however. it dawned on him
that he was being placed in an uuenyiable
position by the aged chief, especially so
when one Of the papers in bold headlines
stated that "one of the chiefs suspects
is back.
To offset this insfnuation Wfnton has
friends and is assuring them that he has
not banked any of the missing sovereigns
and that he does not know where they
are located. Despite these assertions his
friends are begging for their share and
Winton perforee mas to appease them by
buying sundry liquids. AS this is taking
a great deal of American money Winton
wants himself set right before the world
He admits being a passenger on the
steamer and having been accosted by
Lewis, alias Murphy" but he swears he
only had a passing word with him He
claims that Lewis, recognizing him as a
public man, approached him one day and
jocularly said that If he sWfnton) knew
what he did he would not be working his
''McGintys,' meaning the dummies the
ventriloquist uses in his performances
Winton stated that he paid no more at
tention to the remark, thinking that il
was joke. and in fact did not inquire
what the speaker meant Now that his
name is brought into the affair he wishes
it positively stated that he only knows
Lewis by sight, he having been pointed

Sad Case of James

S0S Broadway Oct. 10.
The case of James Harvey, the soldier
who for nearly five hours stood motion
less at the corner of Broadway and Fourth
street yesterday. his head thrown back his
eyes dilated and his muscles contracted,
was examined for insanity to-day by Lu-
macy Commissioners StrattOn and Tisdale,
and his case is one of the saddest of its
kind, his mental faculties having been de-
strOyed presumably by the hardships en-
countered as a soldier in the Philippines.
According to his discharge papers he
was a member of Company B. Twenty
third United States Infantry. He enlisted

assault and capture OF Mallnta March 20,
1893; also the sk1rmIsnes near Marqulna
February g. 1893, in the Philippine insur-
rection. His discharge reads that he was
an honest and faithful soldier, and that
there are no OBJECTIONS to his re-enliSting.
He was discharged August IA, 1899, and the
papers were done at Jolo, Philippine ISL
ands. The papers also recount that he
had drawn Sl91, pay in full.
Harvey's muscles relaxed last evening,
and for a time he seemed rational, but he
was unable 10 give any account OF him

sleep, but this morning exhibited indis-
putable symptoms of insanity.
For several hours he raved like a
maniac. shouting and swearing at imag-

nation that Aguinaldo had finally cap

sure death.

strap him down, and then he seemed all
the worse and the perspiration poured
down his cheeks. Frequently he would

Judge Ogden could get no answers from

times the wives and widows of Godfrey,
and a bitter feeling has long existed be-

past 70. She had a child and fell in love
with a man named Neary and ran off
with him. Then Godfrey got divorce
and later married the women who is now

Mrs. Silva, residing a Alice and Seventh

near the foot of Alice street by Frank

that the child fell into the water while

of the fact that Mrs. Silva only a few

CAMP SANITATION.
Paper by Colonel Greenleaf
Surgeon, U. s. A, Before
the County Doctors.

Colonel Greenleaf, medical inspector
of all army camps, spoke on camp
sanitation before the County Medical So
ciety last evening.
The theme OF Colonel GreenIeaf's re-
maks was the camps in this city and a
comparison of what they were before the
breaking out of the war and when the
volunteers We're first on their way TO the
islands, and what they are now He men
toned the sick percentage of Camp Mer-
rtt-lt was from . to 30 per cent-and
compared 1t with the percentage of sick
GSiIlE e,a reported from the camps now at
the PresIdlo, which never goes over So
per cent Both camps are equally ex-
posed, ne said; both camps have the same
climatic conditions and both are built on
the same soil Yet the difference between
lhe Two from sanitary standpoint is
enormous.
The high degree of sanitation main
tained al the present camps Colonel
Greenleaf attributed TO the agency and
assistance of General Shafter. who from
the first has shown the utmost concern
for the health of the men
They have now two classes to deal with
he said-the men returning from the
Philippines and subject to all kinds of in
testinal troubles, and those coming in
country, liable TO all kinds of infectious
diseases. Both of these classes are being
handled with great success.
Colonel Greenleaf then described the
camps and their construction and the va
rious sanitary arrangements that have
been introduced. He described the sani-
tary corps, a body of civilians that is re-
sponsible for the cleaning of the camps,
and said that the daily expense of main
tanning II reaches $500.
Colonel Greenleaf also told of the pre-
cautions TO prevent the spread of small
pox among the troops and what measures
were resorted 10 when it appeared. His
paper was received with much apprecia- =
ton by the members of the society pres
aDr
