Following the signing of the death
certificate by DR.. w. w. Allen in the
case OF little Myrtle Conklin, the child
who died yesterday from lockjaw, al
legged to have been caused by vaccina-
ton, Coroner Mehrmann gave his con-
sent to-day to the burial of the body.
This action is taken as being the close
of the incident, for now there will be
no Coroner's inquest and no more prob
ing into the cause of the child's death.
The certificate signed by DR.. Allen
describes death as having been caused
by lockjaw, following vaccination. In
this description DR.. F. r. Woolsey, the
vaccination officer, who vaccinated the
child, agreed during a consultation
with DR.. Allen. Both doctors having
agreed as to the cause Of death, Coro-
ner Mehrmann accepted DR.. Aliens
signature to the certificate and declared
that there would be no inquest.
While the doctors interested in the
case have agreed upon a cause of
death, they still hold to their original
opinions regarding the vaccination op-
Grafton. DIR. Allen said tonight that
Coroner Mehrmanns action was COM
pliment TO himself, as he had accepted
his diagnosis that death had resulted
from blood poison following vaccina-
ton. DR.. Woolsey, on the other hand,
maintains that the blood poisoning was
not due to the vaccination operation,
but to improper sanitation.
The funeral of the dead child was
held at o'clock this afternoon from a
local undertaking parlor.
AS a result of the feeling against
vaccination c. E. Kinard has taken
steps to test the legality of the require

courts for a writ of mandate to COM
pei the City Board of Education, City
Superintendent of Schools Nicely
monds and J. H. Pond, as principal of
the High School, to allow his three
children admission without having OBJ
served this requirement.
In his petition, filed to-day, he sets
forth that he took his children to the
school at the beginning of the present
term and asked that they be admitted,
which was refused on the ground that
they had not been vaceinated. He states
that there is no immediate remedy at
hand and therefore asks that the courts
take the matter up and order those
having charge of the school system
to give his children admission to the
school.
An anti-vaccination meeting will be
held in California Hall tomorrow even

law.

In a dream there came to John M.
Norris few nights ago a vision Of
his approaching sudden death. To-
day Morris wife returned to their
home at 80 Telegraph avenue TO find
her husbands lifeless body. The
warning had been verified.
Morris was in the employ of the
Southern Pacific Company. For some
time he had been ailing and depressed.
Several DAYS ago he startled his wife
with the story of the dream. Morris
said his impending death had been re-
vealed TO him while he slept. So re-
sIistic did the message seem TO the
man that he could not shake off the
feeling that his end was near.
Mrs. Morris left the house early
this morning TO go to San Francisco
on an errand. When she departed her
husband seemed a bit gloomy, but as
that had been his condition for several
days the wife was not unusually anx-
ious. She returned at 2 o'clock this
afternoon and found Morris lying on
q bed. He did not respond to her call
and the woman's quick investigation
disclosed that the call of death had
been made. Coroner Mehrmann took
charge Of the case.
DR.. Henry Fine held an autopsy
this afternoon. which showed that
heart disease was the cause Of death.
Morris was so years old, a native of
New York. He leaves no children.
