WE'LL KNOWN YOUNG MAN OF
OAKLAND WHO HAS DISAP-
PEARED MYSTERIOUSLY.
w. L. Valley, Well-Known
and Popular, Leaves Home
Mysteriously.

OAKLAND. Aug. 12.-W. l.. Valley, a
young man well known in the mercan-
tile circles Of this city, has disappeared
under circumstances that have caused
his friends to enlist the aid of the po-
lice. Valley was last seen on Sunday
afternoon, since which time none Of his
friends have received any tidings Of
the missing man. When his room at
the Pacific House was searched to-day
it was discovered that nearly all his ef-
fects had been removed. The only ar
ticles found were a pair Of trousers,
some underclothing and colored shirt,
the sleeves and bosom of which are
badly stained with blood. There was
nothing in the room that would throw
any light on the mystery.
Valley was formerly a partner IN the
firm Of Whipple G. Valley, conducting
an upholstering business at 1895 Sew
enth street. At the time Of his disap-
pearance he was employed at the Cur
tain Store at Fourteenth and Franklin
streets His employers say his work
was entirely satisfactory, and that he
had had no business troubles, so far as
they know. The proprietor Of the Pa
cific House says that Valleys rent is
paid up until tomorrow night.
The missing man is 2S years OF age
and unmarried.

Cided that the injunction issued
