diseases peculiar to their sex. No one

MYSTERY SURROUNDS
MARRIAGE LICENSE

An air of mystery surrounds the is
suance of marriage license to Jesse
L. 0oldstein of 1921 Pacific avenue and
Pauline NJ. Harris of 1915 Post street
Last Saturday handsome young
woman entered the department of the
County Clerks office over which
Cupid" Danforth presides and made
application for a license. She gave the
names mentioned. She answered all
interrogations of the clerk readily and
gave the age of the prospective groom
as 21 and confessed to twenty summers
herself.
Goldstein was unable to be found at
his residence or accustomed haunts
last evening. A call at the Post street
address elected the information that
no one bearing the name given by
the young lady had ever resided in
the house. Mr.. We'll, a friend of the
family stated last night that they had
heard of the issuance of the license,
but emphatically declared that the
marriage had not been solemnized. He
was reticent when asked If there was
parental objection to the union and
as to the identity of the young woman
in the case.
Goldstein is we'll known in CONNER
cial circles and is connected with the
American Import Company, Ill Bat

A band of enterprising burglars
oIute al the West Berkeley wharf late
last night and looted the vessel from
stem 10 stern while the crew slept on
and the night watchInsn wandered
about the decks. There is something
mysterious about the robbery and the
victims say that the burglars used
chIoroform TO keep them in their
slumbers untH the robbing was done
The burglars boarded the steamer
by means Of gangplank they ran
from The wharf TO the paddle wheel,
% which they climbed 10 the upper
deck. This mode Of entrance accounts
for the deception Of the night watch

vessel most Of the night.
After reaching the deck the burg
lars began a systematic looting OF the
staterooms. IN every room they visit
ed they turned everything upside
down and the disorderly appearance
of the rooms this morning shows how
thoroughly they- searched for. valu-
ables.
From the rooms Of George BcCar-
l1F. Joe Deklll ana FRANK OdlJ AA-
burglars got sss IN coin. This money
they took from beneath the men as
they slept and the .boldness Of this
work is what makes the victims think
that they must have been dosed with
chloroform by men that knew their
business None Of them heard a noise
during the night and none was dis
turbed II the least.

-Four of the men sat down on deck
at IL o'clock and ate a lunch. Then
they went TO work again and kept it
up until 2:50. when they cut loose

box was stamped: Records of U. S.
Sub. Trea.- 1e00-1901' L copied the in
scription. The date might indicate that
the box had been in the Rios cargo.
Young Killick's clear and truthful
story points to the history of the Rio
since she sank beneath the waves. The
fated ship went down in the seaway off
the rocks west of Fort Point. Here
the tide often reaches a maximum of
seven or eight miles, and it is likely
that the vessel was swung ground
from her first location until she rested
finally against the rocks southwest Of
the point. Victor Killick described the
anchoring ground of the launch seen
by him as close to the rocks which are
visible at this point. 1t would seem
that the wreck. If such it is, has not
been covered by sand.
Experienced sailors last night gave
full credit to the story of the raising
of the Rios cargo.
