Title 10 Capt. HoWard's KIOn.
dixie Lands Is Missing,
SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES
1900 Acres Of Rich Mining Claims Held
BY Spectator wh.ss Head Was
Blown Open.

San Francisco. July 2s TO the story
OF conspiracy on the part Of eastern
spectators in the background OF the
mysterious death OF Capt Thomas How
ard, IN West Berkeley. on Saturday. July
Is. Investigation adds startling racts. The
deed 10 the 1,eoo acres OF rich mining
property In the Klondike. which Capt.
Howard treasured as representing all his
fortune. has disappeared.
When last seen by his friends Capt.
Howard had the document on his person
when found with his head riddled with
bullets there was not a scrap OF paper on
him save a franked ticket to sausalito
j. b. Treaner. an insurance adjuster
with offices at No. 5oi Montgomery street
who was a close friend and business as
sociate OF Capt. Howard. says that on
Saturday. July II. Howard came 10 his
Office where the document confirming the
government land grant was in safe keep
ing and took IL out Of the vault At
that time Capt Howard said he should
leave for Victoria that night and desired
TO take the deed. week later his body
was found in West Berkeley.
Thorough search oI the dead mans
papers reveals no trace ~ the deed.
There is in his folio a rough typewrit-
ten draft OF the original government
paper. which Capt Howard was want
10 use merely as reference. but which
bears no legal authority.
Treanor sees suspicious circumstances
IN the violent end OF Capt. Howard and
the disappearance OF the deed. He says
That Capt. Howard has been murdered
there is no doubt The circumstantial
evidence OF the motive Is very grave. The
captain told me that he had had a fight
for his title. and that he felt that he
must get back 10 Alaska at the earliest
moment. He was especially careful Of
his deed from the Ottawa land office. and
kept II locked In my safe until July H.
"on that day he said ne was going 20
leave for Victoria that night. whence he
was going to Alaska Immediately He
always carried the deed when he travel
led and so in the present instance he had
II in his pocket when l said goodby TO
him"
