San Francisco Detectives Going
TO Honolulu.
INVESTIGATE STANFORD CASE
Result Of the Inquest Charging That
Mrs. Stanford Was Murdered by
Stryehnine Poison in Bicarbonate Of
Soda Which She Drank.

Honolulu, March 10.-The end of
the inquest with a positive verdict Of
murder leaves the police Of Honolulu
as much without clue as when Mrs.
Stanford died. High Sheriff Henry
said after the inquest that 1t was his
opinion that the strychnine was placed
in the soda in San Francisco by Il
member Of Mrs. Stanford's household.
At the inquest DR.. shorey testified that
the strychnine used. as shown by the
tests, was a strychnine such as is not
used generally for medicinal purposes,
but used principally for poisoning ami
mails.
This statement Is regarded as Of
possible assistance in the tracing Of
the purchase Of the strychnine.
The jury returned their verdict after
about two minutes deliberation.
The detectives who are expected to
arrive from San Francisco on the
steamer Alameda tomorrow may be
able to take up the investigation on
new lines The local police admit that
they are at sea.

WORK ON THE JETTY.

Few DAYS.

Evidently mindful Of the proverb
that delays are dangerous, Major W.
C, Langfitt is gcing ahead with the
preliminary labors on the jetty at the
mouth of the Columbia river in anti
cipation of the financial help to come
later from the river and harbor bill
for the completion of that undertaking.
Recently orders were issued by him 10
Assistant Engineer Hegardt TO push
the early operations necessary in ad-
vance of the start being made to re-
pair the damage to the trestle caused
by the storms of last year, when sec
tons were washed out covering a dis
tance of about 1000 feet.
In rebuilding that part Of the trestle
no large rock will be needed. as that
first placed there remains, but some
small stuff win be dumped along where
the new piling will be placed. The
electric light plant will be o"erhauled
and made fit for service, so the driving
of piles mad continue day and night,
and if Inc weather does not interfere
it is calculated rock will be received
in less than 50 days. Should the hopes
of the engineers materalize In that
respect the entire summer season will
be devoted to the extension work. and
before fall sets in there will he quite
a lengthy stretch Of new trestly con.
structed.
That the Columbia river has been
materially deepened by the combined
benefits from the jetty and work done
by the Chinook is admitted even by the
most skeptical and it is clearly shown
by the last survey reports, but with all
that mariners generally incline to the
opinion that the required depth win
become permanent only when another
jetty is built out from the north shore.

END OF THE WAR.
Believed Russian Defeat VIII End the
War,

Pekin, March 10.-The results Of the
recent fighting in Manchuria have
made considerable Of an impression in
diplomatic circles here and even the
most sanguine pro-Russians have been
forced to admit that the prospects for
Russian success is discouraging, From
a Russian point of view 1t was expect
ed that after the winter had passed
the Russian armies reinforced would
avenge their reverses AMI retrieve
their fallen fortunes. The recent de-
feat has shattered this hope and it is
generally believed that the end Of the
war is FAR distant.
