COAST POLICE DROP
The STAMFORD CASE

The Chronicle says: It was an
nounced at police headquarters yesteri
day that every known clew in the Stan
ford case had been run to earth, and
that the complexion of the matter had
not changed in the least. Barring a con
fession or something "turning up,' the
police admit that they will never solve
the mystery of how on January ,l4th,
in this city, strychnine poison was
placed in the Poland water used by the
late Mrs. Stanford. That portion of
the mystery connected with her tragic
death at Honolulu the police say has
been solved on the theory that Mrs.
Stanford died by natural causes, and
that the powdered strychnine found in
the bicarbonate of soda at Honolulu
was placed there in India by some
druggist, and intended as tonic. p.
The police detectives working on the
case have all turned their attention to
other matters, and while nominally
men are detailed on the case, in real
ity the department has entirely drop
ped it. -, ~ u
In their final Investigations concern
ing the Poland water the police made
some experiments which have con-
WINGED them that il was by barest
chance that Mrs. Stanford was not
murdered in the frst attempt upon her
life. They now believe, that instead
of drinking so much strychnine in the
water that it turned her stomach and
made her throw it off, she did not get
sufficient dose of the poison to prove.
fatal. They explain this through find
ing that when crystallized strychnine
is placed in Poland water it sinks to
the bottom and seems only to poison
the water there leaving that in the
upper portion of the bottle almost en-
tirely unpolluted. They think that
when Mrs. Stanford poured the water
from the bottle it was shaken very lit
tie, and that comparatively small
amount of strychnine was in the glass
full that she drank. Similarly poisoned
another bottle of the Poland water did
not give sufficient strychnine to kill
in the glassful poured from it. In the
second and third plassfuls there was
poison enough to kill several persons.
Mrs. Stanford heart and brain are
still under seal in a safety deposit
vault. The estate representatives have
have them analvzed, but it will prob
ably be done. The detectives working
on the case think that an analysis of
Mrs. Stanford g heart will show that
it was diseased and fatty, and that
primarily death was due to heart dis
ease.

SHOOK LEPER's HAND.

SHOOK LEPER's HAND.
Antoine Manuel was the next witness
He said that he thought that the boat
he went ashore in was the second. Mr..
McVeigh took up his permit and told
him to wait at the landing until the
other permits were taken up and then
he would take them to the house. On
the way up to McVeigh 3 house he saw
lepers on the sides of the road, but at
a distance. He saw one Clark, a leper,
being near him with others, though he
had no conversation with him. Mr.
Abraham Fernandez spoke to him
Clark did not want to shake hands
with Fernandez, but later did. Senators
Achi and Lane signed resolution TO
the effect that everybody should be
allowed on shore and witness took
the paper to the ship to have Mr..
Brown sign 1t.

At the landing witness saw Lieuten.

Element officers with white badges. The
settlement officers told Luehiwa that
the idea was that his Honolulu police
should care for the Honolulu people,
who would mind them better, while the
settlement police would watch out for
the lepers. One Waimau was taking
up tn permits of those who were land
ing. Witness heard Representative Ma
helona tell Waimau to let the people
go out and see the lepers and not to
take away their passes. Mahelona
spoke in a very emphatic tone. Wit
ness went aboard the Kinau and Brown
signed the resolution. The witness
went ashore again.
In response to questions by Senator
Dickey, Manuel stated that he saw Of
ficers with white badges keeping the
lepers away from others at Jack Nc

going to the houses of lepers. Witness
had permit marked Legislative. -
There was nothing about going into the

LANDING DANGEROUS.
Senator Dowsett was recalled and
told of the opinions of the officers of
INC Ihluhu w thc udhkcl VI iahuihk.
He saw the President of the Board of
Health attempt to land. The sea was
about as rough then as at any time
during the day. He considered it a
foolish attempt. Mr.. Pinkham, who
was doing the questioning, here said
"Thank you; I thought so myself. "
Senator Dowsett stated that the steam
or IS officers refused to take the respon-
sibility of landing the people, but were
disposed to allow the people ashore at
their own risk. Witness told them that
he thought that even then the steam
ship company would be responsible in
case of accident.
Mr.. Pinkham then asked this ques-
ton: eff the Board of Health or the
