President Brenner said the San Fran

gave some information as to the sys-
tenn of doing business in San Francisco.
He spoke of the out-of town check
evil, and explained how the associa-
tion conducted it's collection depart
ment, handling claims of merchants
only when all other means of getting
satisfaction had been exhausted. In
two and one-half years the association
had been able to collect bad debts, ag-
gregating 100000. The bulk law was
highly commended by the speaker, and
special praise was accorded Senator
Wolf for his aid in preventing the re-
peal of the law, which provides that
no sale of merchandise shall be ef-
fective until five days notice of sale is
given by record in the recorders office,
thus giving creditors time to present
and collect bills.

to prevent a lynching in the capital city
Of the state.
When the news Of the crime reached
him, the Governor sent his friends all
over the town as emissaries Of law
and order, telling them to plead with
every man they met to allow the law
TO take its course. Then he started ON
personal campaign, addressing the
crowds in the streets, and offered to
pay $500 for the arrest OF the negro.
provided he be delivered alive to the
authorities. The Governors appeal was
listened to in silence.
The local militia company has been
ordered out, and, under the Governors
personal direction, viii be used to pro-
tect the prisoner if he is captured.

Greatest Secrecy Enjoined and Names
of Persons Ordered to Appear
Before Grand Jury Not
Known.

New York, Feb. 25.-Unusual activity
among the forces of the United States
marshals in Manhattan and Brooklyn
has revealed the fact that subpoenas
in the federal beef combine investigation

number Of the local representatives of
the leading meat packing companies.
Budgets of subpoenas from the Office
of the attorney general were received
BY United States Marshal Haubert of
the Brooklyn district and United States
Marshal Henkel of the New York dis
trict and no time was lost in effecting
personal service upon the employees
whose testimony is wanted in Chicago
After the subpoenas arrived kilograms
were received from the attorney gen
erals office enjoining upon the local Off
Gals absolute secrecy in regard to the
matter, and both Marshal Henkel and

New York, Feb. 25.-The autopsy per-

Ross IN the undertaking establishment
Of Coroner w Nelson Knapp, in East
Orange, yesterday afternoon, disclosed
that the immediate cause Of the wom-
ans death was a severe cerebral hemorr-
hage that might have been caused by
either blow or a fall, and that the
injury was in al probability inflicted
before Mrs. Ross body was touched by
Che flames. In the opinion Of DR. W.
FL Mckenzie, county physician Of Essex
county, n. T., who performed the au-
topsy, the hemorrhage was severe enough
to have resulted fatally IN any event,
but he said he could not be absolutely
certain that the woman was dead before
she was burned DIR. Mckenzie will
report III accordance with his findings
to the board Of health and formal IN
quest will be held in the case; which
now, in the opinion both Of the physi-
clans and police, looks plainly to have
been murder
Dr. Mckenzie said also that the ccre-
bral hemorrhage might possibly have
been caused or greatly increased by
strangulation, but he said that strangu-
lation alone seldom produced SO com
plete a hemorrhage.
