LOSES HOPE AFTER
MANY MONTHS,

After waiting in vain for more than
six months the arrival of the steam mer
Centennial. which she at first expected
day by day, then week by week and
finally month by month, but which
never returned to port. Mrs James F.
flanagan has at last given up all hope
or ever seeing her husband, who was
chief engineer of the vessel, and has
applied to the court to assist her in
making start to provide for her three
small children
The Centennial was chartered by
Barneson- Hibbard & Co. for the ST.
berian trade, and when last reuorted
on February "a of this year, had clear
ed from Mororan, on the Siberian coast
bound for San Francisco, and due 10
reach this port about three weeks later
Then. while Mrs. Flanagan was making
preparations to welcome her husband
nome, came the earthquake and fire
and the ensuing tumult caused her for
days to believe that this, and not the
terrors OF the sea, was in some way
responsible for the vessels DELAYED ar
rival. Day after day slipped by. how
ever, and still no word came from the
steamer Days dragged into weeks
and weeks into months without the re
cefpt OF the least word of encoura gins
news.
The Centennial was never posted as
ihiSsiHS oy LtoyuS. recently the Fire
mems Fund Insurance Company .settled
for the loss of the cargo and This
caused Mrs. Flanagan to at last realize
the inevitable. Her little home at $50
Hartford street was saved from the
flames, and there she has lived with
her three children. This property.
which is valued at s2500. is in the name
OF her husband, as is also a savings ac-
count of $500, which constitutes her
earthly possessions
Her application to the court was for
letters of administration to enable her
to secure the control of this property
and close up her husbands affairs, ana
she told her story yesterday morning in
Judge Coneys court with the tears
streaming from her eyes and her head
bowed in grief under the weight of the
sorrow long combatted.
The letters of administration were
granted and ordered issued at once.

HUTTON RAISES POINTS
IN THE FURUSETH CASE


Proceedings in contempt against An
drew Furuseth. secretary of the Sail
ors Union of the Pacific, came before
United States District Judge c. E. VOL
verton yesterday in the United States
Circuit Court. Furuseth had been cited
to show cause why he should not be
punished for contempt for disobeying
the injunction restraining the union
and all others from interfering with
the vessels or the business of the Ham
mond Lumber Company. His attorney,
Harry W. Hutton, irterposed demur-
rer and a motion to quash the proceed
ings. He took the ground that certain
parts of the complaint in contempt had
been taken from minutes of the Sailors
Union introduced in evidence in the
Superior Court in the case Of the Call
fornia and Oregon Steamship Company.
This evidence he held to be not com
petent under section $50 of the Revised
Statutes.
Henry Ach for the lumber company
will argue the other side today.

found the body. of Munakata. and of

FORGER REQUESTS
A SENTENCE.

Edward Cohen yesterday surrendered
himself to Captain of Detectives Duke
and Detective Ross Whitaker, saying
that he had committed three forgeries
and wished to be sent TO the peniten-
tiary. His victims were two saloon
keepers of this city and one of Oak
land The amount of the checks in
each case was $40. Doc Furey and
Ben Casserly, saloon men on Golden
Gate avenue, were the local men who
-cashed the checks uttered by Cohen.
1t is thought that the man who sur
rendered himself is not mentally bal
anced. His repentance and desire to
be sent to the penitentiary are taken
as indicating that he is erratic, and it
is probable that none of the persons
who cashed the checks will prosecute.

MEDICO DISAPPOINTED.

DR.. Kurozawa now feels confident
that Sasaki has no information that
would be useful to the police in running
down the men responsible for the mur-
der and robbery.
Il felt sure that I could arouse his
recollection of the assault through
thought association he said, but it is
evident that he was rendered uncon-
scious the first blow he received It
is now almost certain that he was en-
crossed with his work at the bank
when the thug stole upon him and
struck him down. When he says he
knows nothing of the assault undoubt-
edly he is saying just what is so. He
was busy, was rendered unconscious
in an instant, and awoke to find him
self in hospital questioned about an
attack of which he had no knowledge.
In many respects the case is unique in
its pitifulness"

ABOUT RAILROAD RATES.

The Albuquerque Journal. in dis cussing a revision of freight rates as applying to that city. has the follow ing to say:
 A revision of rates on a few small articles to this point has been made by the Santa Fe railway company. which is very good as far as 1t goes. but it does not go far enough to more than barely touch the matter of which the Albuquerque people complain. and then it stops. A few unimportant articles in carload lots. have been accorded the same rates given on the same articles to Fl Paso. after heinz hauled two hundred and fifty miles further That serves to show that the company recognizes the fact that it is wropging this town, but it does not do anything 10 right the wrong. Very few of our people have occasion to buy peanuts or matches. diamonds or precious stones. fin carload lots" and when the railway company replies to our complaint of unfair treatment by making a concession" of that sort, it simply adds insult to injury by bur iesquing our complaints and treating them with contempt.
 We have not complained of any. thing but what is absolutely wrong, and we have not asked the railway company for anything more than is absolutely right, and accorded us by the plain terms of the law. Indeed, all that we have asked of the com pany is less than would be absolutely fair and just. We have merely asked the company to charge the people of Albuquerque the same rates of freight upon the same articles, in the same quantities, that it charges tine peO-
