HanlOn Has Advantage.

Hanlon enjoys the great advantage
that ne is now within striking distance
OF the weight, and can give All his
time TO the development of strength and
speed. All three of his sparring part
ners he daily hammers UP with the ut
most impartiality. His wind is perfect.
and he seems TO have gained greatly in
hitting power
Dr. Apple, physician of the Hayes
Valley Club, has completed his examina-
ton of the two little gladiators. and pro-
nOunces them to be in the finest kind of
condition.
Hanlon he reports as having gained
greatly in muscular development. The
little Californian has never used LIQUOR
or tobacco.
DR.. Apple unhesitatingly asserts that
Corbett is in much better shape than
when he defeated MeGovern in their
second battle.
Tuthill continues to disapprove of the
baseball games between mines headed by
Hanlon. and Corbett. He says that the
ever-present danger Of serious injuries
to the hands of either one of the pugil-
lists renders these exhibitions dangerous.
II Is hard to keep Corbett away from
baseball He is much more fond of II
than of fighting.
Harry Corbett, brother Of Jim, and an
excellent judge Of form. sets 10 20 on

PREDICTS BIG LABOR WAR.
Frank Buchanan Of the Bridge Work
ers Makes Statement

CHICAGO, April 6.-Frank Buchanan,
who is to lead the bridge and iron workers
in their struggle with the United States
Steel Corporation, predicted general labor
war throughout the country in an address
made last night before the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor.
Il hope and expect that the labor organi-
cations of the country will soon concentrate
an open war against the rapidly growing
combinations of capital he said.
The American Bridge Company is trying
to break up our national union. From
press reports builders of iron and steel
work have formed organization to recti-
fy certain evils. What these evils are l do
not know unless they consist of demands
for higher pay and better working condi-
tions.
The struggle We are waging against the
bridge company is likely to spread. 1t is
possible we will call out all our men on con-
struction work. and If are forced to do
then we will tie up the industry and
force an enormous number of men out of
work"
Mr.. Buchanan is in Chicago looking after
the western end of the strike and will re-
turn to New York within few days for
the general strike will be managed from
that city.

acteristics that marked the mother II
those who now have her care have theil
way she will never know the nature of her
mothers death. Up to this afternoon she
did not know of the death at all. This even
ing the sad news will be told to her, but She
Will only know that the end came through
heart failure. She has known that her
mother was subject to attacks of heart dis
ease, and that her doctor had warned her
that she should exercise care on that ac-
count.
For many years Mrs. Van weik has been
in the habit of spending the winter in
Florida and the summers in the north.
Much OF her time has been spent in New
YORK city. Four years ago she was di-
vorced from her first husband and two
years later remarked. Her second hus-
band, Mr.. Edward Wolfbauer an Austrian
and man of polished manners, has for
many years been associated with Mr.. Ok
nard of the sugar trust. With him he
has been in this city to look after legis-
iatfOn In Congress many times. Last win
ter he spent considerable time here in
that way, The action for divorce against
him was brought last summer.
Mrs. Van Weik's movements have been
apparently controlled largely by impulse.
She would announce her intention to make
journey and she would frequently alter
her plans at the last moment. After she
was married to Mr.. Wolfbauer she went
with him to Cuba for nearly year, but did
not accompany him on other trips to that
island. She made numerous trips abroad
and did not long stay in one place
Her Financial Condition.
Just what was the financial condition of
Mrs. Van Weik at the time of her death is
not known here. She owned two houses,
Nos 1853 and 1855 7th street, that brought
her an income of about $50 month, but
the bulk of her property was in Baltimore.
few years ago 1t is known that she had
a very handsome income from this prop
erty. Whether or not she retained her
property to the time of her death is not
known here. though it is supposed she did
do so. She was regarded as a keen bus-
ness woman in the management Of her af-
fairs.
Before she was married, two years ago,
she stated that she had will giving her
entire property to her daughter and stated
that she had named Miss Lppincott and
Miss Baker of the kindergarten in which
her child was placed as guardians for rfe
little girl
Mrs. Van Weik had a bank account here
in an uptown bank until March T. On that
day she closed her account, and in so do
ing announced that that would be the last
time she would have to sign her name
Louise A. Woldbauer." She seemed great
ly relieved to know that she was free from
her second matrimonial alliance.
1t Is not believed that she was in any
financial difficulty at the time of her death,
as she always appeared to have a liberal
supply of money. Her dress was always
Strikingly handsome and she appeared in
the best of spirits at all times. Every one
who knew her in this city speaks admiring-
ly of her beauty.

conclusion that the kindest and most leni-
ent course which it is possible for me to
adopt toward you. with any degree of
propriety. will be to suggest that you re-
sign from the service. In which, even
should you be retained, you could in the
future have neither professional standing
nor personal comfort. Youn resignation
will be accepted by the department il
rendered Immediately"

Cannot Account for Her Act.

The death by suicide of Mrs. Van Weik in
Jersey City cannot be accounted for by
people in this city who knew her. A month
ago she returned here from Sioux Falls,
s. D.. with her little ten-year-old daughter,
and placed the child in the German Ameri-
can kindergarten at 1O11 New Hampshire
avenue, which had been the home of the
little girl off and on for five years. Mrs.
Van Weik then went to New York and
sent on a very complete spring outfit of
clothing for her child with instructions
that if anything more should be needed to
purchase it and send the account to her
The letter bearing these instructions came
here week ago, and nothing more was
heard from her until the news Of her un-
fortunate ending was brought in the news
dispatches.
Mrs. Van Weik first placed her little girl
in the German-American kindergarten
time of her divorce from Mr.. Weik. The
change of her name from that of her first
husband came about from the fact that in
being divorced from Mr.. Wolfbauer she
wished to discontinue the use of that name
and had not the legal right to take the
name of her first husband. Wishing to
take the same name as that of her
her name Van Weik and addressed let
ters to her daughter in the same way.
Alter first placing her child in the kinder
garten here five years ago Mrs. Van Weik
would at times come to the city and dur
ing such brief periods she would take the
little girl with her at her boarding place
and allow her to attend the school as a
day scholar. When she left the city the
school was again the home of the girl
Last winter when she went to South Da-
kota to get her divorce she took the child
along.
