KILLS HIMSELF TO
ESCAPE FATAL DISEASE
D. G. Carlson Swallows Struchnine
and Is Found Dead in
His Room

Depressed by the knowledge that he
was doomed to die slow death from
a cancer, D. G. Carlson of 1922 Grattan
street committed suicide in room 80 of
the Los Angeles hotel, 215 Boyd street,
some time between 6 o'clock Thursday
evening and 8 o'clock Friday afternoon.
About o'clock in the afternoon Miss
NJ. l.. Junken, the proprietor, remarked
TO the porter, Herman Manner, of the
hotel that the man in 80 had not arisen
and that he had better see what the
trouble was. Manner went to the room
and finding that he could gain no re-
sponse unlocked the door with pass
keys. Carlson was lying dead on the
bed. Search of the room disclosed the
fact that he had died of strychnine
poisoning.
Carlson had been employed by the
Cudahy Packing company in Los An
geles and had also lived for a time in
San Diego.
An inquest was held over Carlson's
remains last evening at Bresee's and
the verdict was that he came to his
death by taking strychnine with suici-
dal intent.

No drinks for women is the slogan

The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of protesting against the sale of

in hand that only few of his score of

ANOTHER CLAIMANT Is
FOUND IN BUSH CASE

Coming to Los Angeles to
Assert His Rights


Another claimant has entered the
field to contest for the estate of Charles
H. Bush, the late North Main street
jeweler who died suddenly twelve days
ago, without making any disposition
of his $150,00O estate.
The new claimant is Philo L. Bush of

GIVES GLOWING ACCOUNT
OF RAILROADS FUTURE
Secretary and Auditor Of California
Northwestern Speaks of Pros
poets in Humboldt County

| BY Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO Aug. 4-Thomas
Mellersh, secretary and auditor of the
state board of equalization today ana
made his usual interesting statement on
the railroad valuations.
He said that the road had a good
future and would be extended as rapid
| ly as possible into Humboldt county.
1t had cost several millions of dollars
to tap the timper belt, but eventually II
would pay handsomely. He said that
one merchant in Eureka had standing
offer that he would pay 100000 for the
first ticket from that city to San Fran
cisco. 1t was estimated that If 100 car
loads of lumber a day were taken out
of that country annually during the
next 100 years hardly any impression
would be MADE on the supply.
| In speaking of the future of the
North Shore railroad, he said that while
this years statement showed a deficit
of $1S5 030.52 the road had a great
future, as it was rapidly building up
the locality through which it traversed.
This country was becoming such q
favorite camping ground in summer
that the principal freight consisted of
canned sardines and beer. At the
present time the management of the
road was a hard grind, and during the
past year not one of the principal Of
ficers of the road had taken a cent of
salary
| Mr.. Mellersh said the steam roads of
the country were badly handicapped by
the electric systems, and within fifty
years all steam locomotives would be
superseded by electricity and gasoline
He predicted that when the roads to the
east were double-tracked and laid with
heavy rails it would be possible to go
to New York in three days.
His denunciation of the proposed
Esch- Townsend bill that was presented
to congress, giving the interstate CON-
merce commission the power to fix
rates, ETC., was combatted by A. b.
wye, private Secie'eiy VI oiho'
Pardee, who was an interested spec :
tator. Mr.. Nye contended that the pro-
posed bill gave no greater power thar
the California railroad commission pos
sessed and no bad results had accrued.
Mr.. Nye held that the bill was necessi; =;
tated because the consolidation of rail-
road interests had practically killed
competition.

DESPERATE BOYS
SENT To PRISON
CARRY CONCEALED CLUBS TO
COURT ROOM
CONFESS PLANS FOR ESCAPE
Clyde Grlbbe and Everett BURNETT
Are Given Terms In State Insti-
tutlons and Will Be Re-
leased When of Age

With cudges secreted in their cloth
ing and watching constantly for a
chance to make a break for liberty,
Clyde Gribble and Everett Burtnett,
the boy bandits who attempted to
escape from the detention home several
days ago by attacking their guard, were
brought before Judge Wilbur in the
juvenile court yesterday afternoon and
both were sent to state reform schools.
Only through the watchfulness of
Deputy Sheriff Wilson was trouble in
court averted. The Burtnett boy has
been arrested several times, but his
latest offense was the theft of bicycle
and, in the company of Clyde Gribble,
riding to Pomona on the stolen property.
When officers at Pomona attempted
to arrest the youngsters both drew re-
volvers, but were disarmed and returned
to Los Angeles. The morning after
their arrival Gribble attempted to
escape by striking Maj. Henry oliver,
head with chair.
Because of their youth and because
Sheriff White did not care to put the
boys in the tanks with criminals the
youngsters were allowed the freedom of
the upper floor, although constantly
under guard.
Seek Chance to Escape
Yesterday when Deputy Wilson took
them to the court room both boy s
watched for a chance to escape. The
deputy was aware of the boys previous
attempt and only relaxed his vigil when
he placed them in the dock of tn"
superior court room.
"Come here, boys" said Judge Wilbur
and the lads marched up to the judges
bench. While Judge Wilbur was talk
ing with them both lads had occasion
to lean over slightly in order to give
their answers and the watchful deputy
noticed something bulging from the
rear trousers pockets of the lads.
He took them behind the jury box
and searched them. Stout clubs, legs
of big oak chair, were found in their
pockets and they acknowledged having
taken them from a chair in the county
Jail.
1--WE were going to risk chance at
escaping if we caught the deputy nap
ming" was the only information the
boys would give, and when they were
told that Wilson was reared in Texas
and was in the habit of driving nails
into telegraph poles with his revolver
while riding at full speed, they refused
to change their statement and said:
well, we would have made the try
anyhow and taken the chances"
Burtnett was sent to Whittier to re-
main until he attains his majority and
Gribble was given the same term at
Preston.

THIEVES AT HARVEY.
6and Of Desperadoes Caught Red
Handed


Harvey has been in somewhat of a
turmoil for the past day or so, Sunday
evening a freight train pulled into
town. and it seems that there were a
number of hobos quartered in box
car. During the night one of these
men went ito the agent of the 500 and
told him that the men who came in
with him were going to rob the town.
The agent notified the town marshal,
and they began systematic search
of the railroad yards for the party. At
the same time the burglars had gone
up to town and were at work. En-
trance was secured into the butcher
shop of Clark & Persons through a
transom, and here small amount OF
cash was secured from the till. Two
young men were sleeping in the back
room. One of them had his pants I'M
der his pillow, and these were taken,
containing $40 in money and gold
watch. The pants were found in the
alley the next day. They broke out
a glass in the front door of the store
of M. F. Hagen & Co., where $1,000
worth of goods were taken; these con-
sisted of mems suits, shoes gents
furnishing goods, jewellery. kn ives.
ETC., and what cash was in the register,
which amounted to only about SO. The
only goods thus far recovered is box
of rings. Five persons have been iden-
titled by the man who gave the first
warning. The preliminary hearing
was held Monday, and adjourned, but
It looks as if the whole party would
be held for trial in the district court.
