M'V|CAR WAS
POISONED
Ch|ora| and Morphine Found
In His Stomach.
PLACED ALIVE IN TRUNK
No Cyanide of Potassium
Found in the Murdered Mans
Stomach.

STOCKTON, Cal, March 3O.-AIbert
N. McVicar came to his death from
morphine and choral poison Coroner
SOuthworth this morning received the
following from Roy r. Rogers, chem
ist at San Francisco:
Examination of the stomach. pam
creas and liver of McVicar discloses a
small quantity of choral and a large
quantity of morphine Persistent eff
fCrts to find cyanide Of potassium re-
suit in positive proof of it's absence.
No morphine or choral was found in
McVicar's or Mrs. Ladoux's effects.
This puts the prosecution against a
new problem. The inquest will be held
this afternoon. The defense will prob
ably be that Mrs. Ladoux did not ad-
minister the poison. but it will prob
ably be admitted that she did put the
body in the trunk. Coroner South
worth is now positive that McVicar
was put in the trunk while alive.

unless the men were put to work they

that he would refer their grievance to
the proprietors of the company. He
sent for George H. Smell, Samuel LOney
and Duncan McGillvray, three of the
principal stockholders. When they ar
rived we presented our case to them.
Each of the three stated that he did
not object to the employees having a
union, but stated that they desired to
run an open shop. They said they
would stand back of their foreman and
all those who did not want to go to
work could call at the office and get

causing the plant to shut down. Ac-
cording to the claims of the strikers
the walk-out was occasioned by the
discharge of two of the oldest en-
ployes, who were supposed to be the
leading spirits in the recent formation
of a brickmakers' union in Walla
Walla.
One of the men who walked out this
morning in speaking of the strike said:
Several days ago the employees de-
cided to form a union, and sent for an
organizer He arrived in Walla Walla
last week and, after interviewing all
the brickmakers in the city, he assisted
in forming the union. This organiza-
ton was not looked upon with favor
by one of the foremen employed by the

would use his efforts to have the men
who were instrumental in starting the
union discharged. This morning, when
we were all ready to begin work, the

President Has Not Acted.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 30
The cabinet this afternoon adjourned
after two hours and a half discussion
OF the coal situation. Secretary Loeb
announced that the president has not
vet answered the operators telegram
and that probably no step will be taken
in the matter today.
If the president follows the cabinets
advice he won't interfere IN the coal
situation. 1t is understood he was
counseled that it would be inadvis-
able to appoint a commission now. II
was pointed out that the miners and
operators have not yet exhausted al
means to avert a strike.

NAVY IS OPPOSED TO JUNK PILES
Limit on Amount to Be Spent
on Ships.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 3d.
The naval department is disposed to
resist the plan of placing a limit Of
cost upon repairs of steel vessels. In
the case of wooden ships this restric-
ton equals ten per cent of the cost OF
the new vessel, and any such rule ap-
piled to steel vessels would practically
prohibit the current work of alteration.
which may now be done on board the
battleships and armored cruisers with
out special authority Of congress. The
ten per cent limitation would interfere
with all of the larger projects for ma
val repair, such as that recently ac-
complished on the Indiana, and now
proposed for the Massachusetts at the
Brooklyn navy yard.
Rear Admiral Capps, the chief con-
structor of the navy, is Of the opinion
