was at once taken to police headquarters
and inImured in the tanks" pending
further developments, as Ellis aptly
put it.
Yesterday 1t was conclusively shown
that McVeay had nothing to do with the
robbery. Captain of Detectives Bohen is
satisfied of his innocence but for some
unexplained reason the unfortunate vic
tim of police intolerance is doomed to re-
main in prison until Chief Lees and his
pair of incompetent sleutbs give him his
release.
Contrary to the statement of Ellis and
crockett Mrs Richards, who conducts
where MCVeay roomed. has not identified
the young man as being the person she
saw entering her house with the stolen
sack of coin under his coat.
am convinced that he is not the
man, remarked Mrs. Richards yester-
DAY when shown McVeay The person

Both Ellis and Crockett vainlv endeav-
ored to get her to identify McVeay, but
she adhered to her original statement and
perSlstently refused to be bulldOzed into
saying that the prisoner was the man
whose name the police refused to divulge,
ana VINO witnessed the robbery, has also
failed failed to identity McVeay, much to the
disgust of the laundering sleuths He
was taken to the City Prison yesterday
and confronted by McVeay. After care

clared that he was not the thief
Mrs. Dray, who is employed as a re-
Brook street between Kearny street and
Grant avenue, is the only witness the po-
lice have found who in any way has iden-
titled McVeay, She says she was looking
out, of the window of the photograph
gallery reading The Calls bulletins on
the international yacht race when she
saw man answering the description of
the prisoner crawl into Barneson's buggy
and lift the sack of coin. While ad-
mttting she was excited at the time she
seems inclined to believe that McVeay is
the Cuprit.
McVeay is a hard-working fellow and
enjoys the confidence of his employers.

writ Of habeas corpus for his release

NEWPORT ARRIVES.
Regulars and Discharged Sol
dierS Pass in During
the NiQht.

The transport Newport arrived in port
late last night with discharged soldiers of
the Third Artillery. Fourteenth Infantry
and the Fourth Cavalry. All told she
carried over 400 men, all burning with
anxiety to reach their native land after
the. hardships of campaigning in the Phil
ippine Islands. The Eighteenth Company
Signal Corps was also on board and the
members are for the most part Califor-
mans who volunteered for Manila service.
Five men died of dysentery on the trip
from Nagasaki. The unfortunate soldiers
who succumbed to disease on the trip
were: Sergeant Major Young of the
Twenty-second Infantry, Private Walsh
of the Fourteenth Infantry, Private Han
cock of the Third Aatilery, Private Shar-
key of the Ninth Infantry and an I'M
known discharged soldier.
In the port of Nagasaki a row broke out
that nearly eliminated in riot. The
captain of the ship became involved in a
merry war with the soldiers over the OBJ
streperous conduct Of a japanese sailor
who took It upon himself to insult blue
jacket. The American Consul at Naga-
saN boarded the ship to settle matters
1udicially, but the soldier was allowed to
return to his native country.
The usual tale of ill-treatment on the
part of the officers of the ship was forth
coming on the part of the discharged SOL
diers, but they all look well and in good
health.

ANARCHISTS SUICIDE
AT THE ROPES END
M. LEVITZKY, LATE OF CHI
CAGo, MADE THE LEAP.
Believed That Property Is Robbery
and Not Having 1t Hanged
Himself in His Clothes
Closet.

NJ. Levitzky committed suicide some
time last Sunday night by hanging him
self to a hook in the clothes closet of his
room in the residence of Thomas Elston,
418 Franklin street.
His dead body was found at 1890 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. After fastening the
rope around his neck he stood en- a chair
and kicked the chair away. The force of
the fall caused the rope to cut his neck.
LeVitzky was about 90 years old and
came to this city from Chicago about a
year ago. He had worked for a time as
filter and designer of ladies' cloaks at
131 Post street. and had been sick and
in the city so far as known. Books and
pamphlets found among his effects by
Deputy Coroner Sullivan and Messenger
Flanagan tend to prove that the deceased
was or had been a member of or sympa-
thizer with the Chicago anarchists. The
pamphlets proclaim Proudhon's doctrine
that all property is robbery, hold up the
gloomy side Of life to the wage slave and
decry against that condition of things
which allows one man to drink cham
pagne and eat roast turkey when he has
earned them and will not allow the other
man who has not earned them to eat and
drink them likewise.
1t is believed that LevitZky'S mind was
unsettled by this misleading literature
and placed in such a morbid condition
that he saw no way out of his troubles
than suicide.
He left note written in Hebrew script
and in the Polish language, but up to a
late hour last night neither Coroner Hill
nor Deputy Coroner Sullivan could sue

NORTHWEST To
JOIN THE FIGHT
TO HOLD TRADE
Good News Comes
From Two States.

Portland. Seattle and Tacoma will stand
with the cities of California to make the
fight against the st. Louis and chicago
jobbers who are seeking to get the Paclhc
Coast trade. This is made certain by the
reports brought back by the representa-
tives of leading lines of business In can
fornia who visited the northwest to secure
concerted action.
The northwestern cities have already
organized locally They have agreed to
elect members to the executive committee
Of the Pacific Coast Traffic Association to
represent them, which will effect a union
of business interests. There will be but
one organization on the slope, with head
quarters in this city. This is what the
committee reports, in substance A united
front will therefore represent the coast
before the Interstate Commerce Commits
sioners.
There is no doubt that Tacoma, Seat
tie and Portland will cooperate with us,
said Charles f. Tay to a Call reporter
yesterday. This statement was indorsed
bv other members of the committee.
When San Francisco's representatives
reached Portland they found that prom
inent Portland business men had started
for, Seattle to organize; They succeeded,
and the Jobbers' and Manufacturers As
sociation was formed in Seattle, with an
executive committee of three. This hav-
ing been accomplished, cooperation was
secured in Tacoma. The Portland Cham
Der of Commerce met and approved unan-
imously the action of the Seattle confer
ence Henry Hahn, who interviewed the
Portland merchants, in speaking of the
situation said
1T is needless to say that the new as
sociation is a step in the right direction.
This is broad undertaking, and it should
be viewed from a broad standpoint. 1t is
not a move in the interest of San Fran
cisco or Seattle, but in the interest of the
entire Pacific Coast. We must unite for
our own protection, or the Middle West
jobber will drive US out of business"
The collectors of funds in this city are
busy. An open letter has been addressed
to business men in which occurs the fol-
lowing statement: The suit is really
brought against you. The wholesalers
jobbers and many manufacturers of the
coast must become parties to the suit and
defend their rights

FIRE THREATENS THE
TOWN OF M0JAVE
Fierce Flames Destroying Important
Buildings and All Wires Are
Down

MOJAVE, Oct 9.-Fire broke out here
tonight at 8:40-o clock and threatens to
destroy the town. A heavy wind is blow
ing, and although every effort is being
made to subdue the fierce flames it looks
as If the town will be reduced to ashes.
Further information was cut off by the
breaking of the wires leading out of the
town.
Mojave is a village in, Kern County and
is 50 miles from Los Angeles. 1t has a
population of 1900. 1t is situated on
the northern border of the desert whose
name it bears. 1t is small but thriving
railroad town, dependent largely upon the
shops of the Southern Pacific Railroad
and Atlantic and Pacific road. 1t is the
terminal point on the Pacific Coast of
the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad, which
branches off at Barstow, and for seventy
two miles brings the traveller through the
desert on his way to San Francisco.
Mojave is the nearest railroad point for
the extensive borax works in the East,
and is also the point of departure for the
mining camps of Goler and Red Rock
There are two important boraX mines
with headquarters there, and it is a
shipping point for mining for adjacent
towns and for Inyo County as far as
independence.

Malady Handling Soldiers
Money at the Bank.

Robert B. Murdoch, cashier of the Bank
of Commerce, was removed from his
home at 723 Devisadero street yesterday
afternoon to the Pesthouse, where he is
suffering from smallpox. Murdoch is one
of the best-known business men of this
city and his sudden sickness has created
CONSERVATION in business circles The
health officials have tried to trace his
case to the point of infection. and al
though not positive in their findings have
concluded that he contracted the malady
through handling currency and exchange
handed in at his bank by soldiers re-
turned from the Philippines
Murdoch has been ailing for several
days past, but did not discover his seri-
Gus Gus condition until yesterday, when he
thought 1t necessary to call in his fam
lily physician. His physician promptly
diagnosed the case as smallpox and Muir
doch himself ordered the fact at once
reported to the health authorities.
Every. comfort will be given him and
everything done that can be toward his
