Matches found in the Fosburgh house

Chapman.
The examination of James Fosbureb
brother of the accused man. then began
and it was conducted by Distr.ct AZ,
torney Hammond. The proceeding was
really cross-examination of the witness
with reference to his testimony before
the coroners jury. Although slightly
nervous, young Fosburgh gave his an
swers in deep, clear voice with no hes
itation.
Witness said he wasIawakened bv a ter
rible shrek, coming apparently from his
fathers room. He got out of bed turned
on the electric light in his room. and
then rushed up the front stairs, turning
on various lights as Tie F1'an. He heard
several EXPLANATIONS '-fEom above and
was met at the head, of the stairs by
ms slsrer-ln-iaw' VINO screamed: Your
fathers gone crazy He brushed her
aside and went on to his sister MAYS
room. She was lying on the floor. The
electric lights had been lighted. There
was only one thing that made an i'm
preston on me-" he sad THAT was fine
fact of my sisters body lying on the
floor.

I said: Get towels and ammonia d d

brother Robert come into the room he
hind my father. He was Staggering. ard
when in the middle of the room he co.,
lapsed and fell to the floor, his head
resting near my sister, but his BODY in
an opposite direction"
Witness then described his trip for a
doctor. He did not know his sister had
been shot or how she had been hurt He
knew she was unconscious
Said the district attorney: You called
doctor. not knowing what the matter
was or that there was a claim that other
persons had been in the house?"
YES" replied the witness, 'I did not
know what happened until l returned"
Young Fosburgh said he had heard no
shots in the house that night, and there
fore could not say how many shots had
been fired.
When the examination of the witness
was resumed after recess, the questions
were along the line of the attitude of the
young man towards the state police and
newspaper men who had published stories
about the alleged inconsistencies in the
story told by the Fosburgh family He
replied that he thought the family should
not have been bothered as they were
with reference to the jewelry alleged to
have been left by the burg ars. witness
said they were a couple of stick pins
but no watch or diamond sunburst."

STRIKE IS ON AT FRISCO
Transportation business of the CITY
Badly Congested.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 22.-The dray-
ing business Of this city is almost at a
standstill. The transfers strike went in
10 effect at noon, and nearly Loco team
sters are now idle. On the water front
thousands of tons of freight are piled up
on the docks, and incoming steamers
are continually adding to the congestion.
The larger wholesale dealers, the fruit
canneries and the factories have been the
most seriously affected so far
Most of the small commission houses
and other business houses having their
own teamsters were abe to get their
freight moved this morning but this
fact has scarcely any perceptible eff
feet on the situation.
one consequence of the strike is the alb
rupt fall in the prices of farm and or
chard products. Potatoes and fruits suf-
Tered most and the fmpossbility Of NOV
ing large quantities of fruit made this
commodity almost unstable at the
wharves this morning
The business of the local custom house
Is also interfered with Tons of du-
TABLE freight are at the docks awaiting
removal to the appraisers stores and
bonded warehouses. Much Of this freig. t
is valuable.

Documents in Gjertsen Case.

If Rev. M. Falk Gjertsen continues to
maintain the same attitude as assumed
at the meeting of the board of deacons
Of Trinity Norwegian church last even
ing, a rupture in the society appears in
evitable. 1t was the hope of some of
the more prominent members of the
church that Mr.. Gjertsen would resign
from the pastorate and not allow it to
be declined.
The meeting of the board of deacons
was called last evening as a result Of
the arrival here of the documents in the
case, thirty-one in all, including the let
ter in the case. 1t was generally con-
coded that they would be an important
factor in deciding the future relations be-
tween the church and its pastor. During
the meeting Mr.. Gjertsen was quite sar-
castle in his reference to the people who
had been instrumental in securing the
original documents from Norway.
The affair will occupy the entire atten-
ton of the society at it's next meeting,
and clash IS looked for. The factions
are now arrayed against each other. Prior
to the meeting the deacons will hold an
other session to consider the most ad-
visable manner in having the matter pre-
scented.

TELEGRAPHERs ON STRIKE.
Trainmaster Causes the Arrest of
Five of Them

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, July 22.-Train-
master S. II. Barnes, of the Choctaw.
Oklahoma & Gulf railroad has cAused
the arrest of five teleg1 aph operators on
a charge of obstructing the mails. A
small strike of railway operators was
inaugurated on the ChoctSw road at
Brinkley, Ark, Saturday night, and ex-
tended to Forrest City, resulting in de-
laying traffic several hours. 1t Is alleged
that the strike was led by an operator
who had been with the company only a
short time, and that his grievance was
that he was refused transportation over
the road. None of the strikers, it is
claimed, belonged to the order of Railway
photographers.
