One of the most stupendous engi-

New York is that of moving the
mammoth meteorite, which Robert
Il. Peary found In Greenland, from
its present resting place on the
grounds OF the American Museum OF
Natural History to a place in the hall
of meteorites. This great mass OF
iron weights thirty-seven and a half
tons and is the largest OF the KIND
known. In order TO get 1t into the
great lobby of the museum the doors
are being thoroughly braced. A solid
pier of concrete has been built In
the basement on a foundation OF
solid rock, which will be used as the
permanent resting place of the celes-

to New York the giant meteor has
been an object of great interest to
scientists and laymen alike and In
Its new position 1t will doubtless at

BLOW FROM FIST

Wife of Oakland Patrolman
Attacked by a Stranger
on a Street at Night
MAN NAY BE CRAZY

OAKLAND, ian. 27.-Returning home
from a visit to a friend soon after IL
o'clock last night, Mrs. Thomas Wood,
wife of Patrolman Ahonas Wood of the
Oakland Police Department, was vi
ciously attacked at Seventh and Union
streets by Joseph Towne Her assail-
ant was afterward captured and booked
at the Central Police Station on
charge of battery.
AS Mrs. Wood reached the corner of
Union and Seventh streets, on her way
to her home at 724 Peralta street Towne
walked up behind her and struck her
with his fist, knocking her to the
ground. Mrs. Wood screamed for help
and her cries were heard by AL Reihm.
who lives at Ninth and Castro streets.
and John Pringle, a butcher at Seventh
and Chester streets. Pringle and
Reihm gave chase to the woman's as
sailant, but he escaped. Later he was
found hiding in barn on Kirkham
street and was taken 20 the Central Po-
lice Station, where he was positively
identified by Mrs. Wood.
Mrs. Wood knows of no reason for
the attack upon her. as she had never
before seen the man. The police ex-
press the opinion that Towne is dement,
ed and he probably will be charged
with insanity.

YOUNG MERCHANT 7
PASSES AWAY
G. w. Humphreys Long
Fight Against Disease
Ends in Deaths Triumph
HAD HOST OF FRIENDS

OAKLAND, Jan. 27.-After an Illness
of more than two months George w.
Humphrey, one of the best known of
the younger business men of Oakland,
died in FabioIa Hospital last night of
acute nephritis. he was 3S years old.
Humphrey was a member of the firm
of Dean & Humphrey, having been as
ISOLATED with the furniture business
for the past five years. Prior to that
time he had been acting as chief sales
man for the Westphal Milling Com
pany. His business ability and in
tegrity virtually constituted his capital
when he entered the furniture business.
Within few years he arose from
bookkeeper with a small interest to
full partnership with James B. Dean
in one of this city's largest stores.
Not only among business associates
will Humphreys death cause keen re-
gret, but also in fraternal and club
circles. He was Scottish Rite Mason,
q member of Oakland Lodge of Etks
and for years had been prominent IN
the direction of Reliance Club affairs.
The Masonic fraternity will have
charge of the funeral services, which
are to be held a I 80 o'clock on Tues
day afternoon in Masonic Temple.
Humphreys illness began early last
November, when he was compelled to
drop all business duties. On the ad
vice OF MS physicians ne went TO san
Diego with Mrs. Humphrey in the hope
OF regaining his health in a more con-
genial climate. Since January 6, when
he returned to Oakland, he had been
under the care of Drs. J. NJ. Shannon
and William w. Kergan in Fabiola
Hospital. Humphreys friends realized
that neither medicine nor surgery held
hope for his recovery and the end was
not unexpected, although the patient
fought bravely for life to the last.
Humphrey was married in April,
1903. to Mabel @. Kergan, the daughter
of DR.. and Mrs William w. Kergan.
Since their wedding they had resided
almost continuously with Mrs. Hum
phrey's parents at 957 Eighth street.
In addition to the widow. the deceased
is survived by a mother, two sisters,
Mrs. Belle Colvin and Mrs. Nellie Tai
bot and two brothers. L. II. and Frank
V. Humphrey.

ETERANS WEEP At
ALGER'S BIER

DETROIT, Jan. 27.-<Nearly 10000
persons paid tribute this afternoon to
the memory of Senator R. A. Alger as
his body lay in state in the City Hail.
For three hours and a half a contin-
uous line of people passed through the
corridors for last look at the dead
Senator.
Pathetic and moving incidents
abounded as the throng passed before
the open casket. Old soldiers who had
served in the Civil War with him sa
luted as they slowly marched by the
body of their old commander with tear
dimmed eyes
When the last person had passed be-
fore the casket the Senator's body was
carried out to the hearse and taken to
the family home on Fort street.
The special train on which the fu-
neral party came from Washington ar
rived here this morning. After Mrs.
Algerl and her family had left the train
and gone to their home eight members
of the Spanish War Veterans Associa-
ton, who had served under the orders
of Senator Alger when he was Secre-
tary Of War. marched out on the plat
form and took the casket from the
funeral car. The funeral ceremonies
will be held from the Senator's home
tomorrow afternoon.

MAY AVOID TARIFF
HOSTIL|TIES

BERLIN, Jan. 27.-The conference Of

North, who was head of the American
delegation, will sail for the United
States next Wednesday. James l.. Ger
ry and Nahum 1. Stone, the other dele
gates. will remain here to complete the
translation of the protocols.
The Associated Press some days ago
requested both commissions to author
ize the publication of a summary of the
results of the negotiations. The Amer
lean commissioners prepared such a
summary and it was discussed and mod
flied in a session of the joint commits
sion. In its final form it is as follows:
The sessions Of the commissioners have been
harmonious from the start and nothing has
occurred at any point to interfere with the
cordial and friendly relations originally estab-
lished. These sessions have been largely de
customs methods of the two countries and the
reasons therefor No commercial treaty has
been negotiated because the American commits
sioners had no authority to make such treaty;
hut I'm the course of the proceedings there has
been established a basis upon which a com
mercial treaty might be concluded provided the
consent OF the Reichstsg and the American Con-
So far as both governments are concerned, no
committals have been made. but the understand
ing is such that if the two governments shall
desire to enter into commercial agreement the
The members of both the German and Ameri-
can commissions feel very strongly that even
II no commercial agreement or treaty should
follow. the interchange of views and informa-
ton has been of the utmost value in aiding
continuance of the friendly commercial relations
between the two nations
The foreign office will issue an an
nouncement tomorrow Identical with
the foregoing. Following diplomatic
usage, the American commissioners felt
that the details of the results reached
ought to be laid before President
Roosevelt first. while the German COM
missioners did not desire them pub
lished until after the Reichstag cleo
tions and the reballots, which in many
districts will not be finished until Feb
ruary g.
1t will do not harm to add that the
commissions arranged a plan which,
with the approval of President Roose-
welt and the Reichstag, Will avoid tariff
hostilities; and, as alluded to In the
foregoing authorized summary, basis
for a long. term arrangement to the
mutual agreement of both peoples was
fully considered.
