BLOW BL0Ts PAST FROM
MIND OF 4 PHYSICIAN
DR.. Van Tassell, Missing at
Berkeley, Located in
Portland

PORTLAND. June s--Rational and
with a full realization OF all he has lost,
DR.. F. n. Van Tassell. prominent ply
sician of Berkeley. CAL. is at St vim
cents hospital. his miud a blank as to
his past. He calls himself J. II. smith
why. he does not know. A oruise on
his forehead, received In Berkeley a
week ago Thursday, presumably In
ficted by robber. may account for
the strange mischance.
DR.. Van Tasseh has no recollection OF
ever having practiced medicine. He
does not know his own name.
Ten days ago he left his home at
Berkeley after kissing his wife goodby.
He expected to return in a few hours.
but did not do so. 1t is supposed that
after being beaten and robbed by a
thug he went to Oakland, crossed to
San Francisco and took the steamer
Roanoke for Portland. arriving Tues
day morning. Then followed days OF
wandering, while DR.. Van Tassell lived
In cheap lodgings afraid to tell OF his
strange lapse Of memory for fear of
being sent TO the insane asylum
At length he looked into city direc-
tory for a physician and hit upon the
name of DR.. X. A j. Mackenzie. one
of the best known practitioners in the
city To Dr. Mackenzie he told the
following tale:
'I do not know my own name
do not even remember my previous oc-
cupation If 1 have relatives I do
not know who they are or where they
live. am here; that is all I know.
Why I call myself J. M. Smith I do
not know, but 1T was the first one that
came to my mind while wandering 6
hopelessly about in San Francisco.
MY first recollection OF my past
dates last week, when found myself
in Oakland. 1 knew that did not
belong there but did not know why.
Some irresistible force impelled me 20
cross the bay and go to San Francisco.
Then my mind became active heard
persons talking about leaving for Porn
land. The same impulse that caused
me to leave Oakland turned my foot
steps to the steamship ONCE. where
bought steerage ticket for Portland.
"Since my arrival I have purchased
many California newspapers to see If
could find accounts of persons re-
ported missing from home in the hope
of finding myself. I ran across the
story Of the mysterious disappearance
of DIR. Van Tassell. but that is not
my name. never practiced surgery
or attended college; of this I am GER
tain
kilograms to. Berkeley soon estab-
Iished DR.. Van Tasselrs identity and
now relatives are on the way to try
to bring back the doctor to his right
mind

JACOB WOLLNER
FALSE IN TRUST
To HIS SISTER
Looted Estate Explains the
Mystery of Wool Mer-
chants Suicide
$1,000 IN ARREARS
Exposure Made Certain by
the Sale of Lands in
This State
PISTOL ENDS FEARS
Returns to City to Take His
Life When Disgrace
Is at Hand
PISTOL ENDS FEARS

Information that he had vio-
lated a sacred family trust has
dispelled the mystery surround
ing the suicide of Jacob Wollner.
the wool merchant, who shot
himself in Burns harnmarn baths,
in Ellis street, last week.
Wollner was led to put pistol
to his head because he was con-
fronted by the ordeal of stand
ing up in court and confessing
that he had robbed the estate of
his brother-in-law, Meyer Sond-
helm. the China trader. who died sew
erai years ago In New York.
When Sondheim had passed away his
will was found to name his widow who
had been Miss Ida woliner. and was
sister of the wool merchant. the execu-
trfx OF his estate. Besides property IN
New York, Sondheim's estate included
land in Merced and Contra Costa coun-
ties In this state. and it's management
was considered too much, of task by
the widow. She accordingly relin-
quished her authority as executrix of
the estate and had her brother appoint
ed in her place
wolIner's administration OF the es-
- 1T
to learn. was above reproach until
few months prior to his suicide. when
IL became known that the holdings IN
Merced and Contra Costa counties were
about to be sold
Judge Wells Of Contra Costa. to
whom wo1lner had applied to validate
the sale Of this property, refused to
comply until the administrator had
furnished bonds In the sum OF $4,000.
WolIner secured these bonds through
the Pacific surety company and pro-
ceedsd with the sale. from which hs
realized $1,000.
Legal complications followed the sale
and wollner was ordered by Judge
Wells to appear in court and give an
accounting OF his administration OF the
estate. This was two days before he
-eturned to San Francisco and shst
himself
Investigation carried on by the fam
fly since that time has established the
fact that woIlner had been In arrears
to the state to the amount OF at least
$1,000
Attorney W. W. Allen Jr.. working
in conjunction with the surety com
pany that bonded wollner for the sale
of the California lands. has laid the
particulars OF the administrators vio-
Iations before Judge Wells since the
suicide of the former
wollner's widow and son. W. s woll-
ner, who lives at 3770 Sacramento
street. are distraught over the reveIa-
tions. but have decided to unite in
making restitution to the estate.
Stock of the Rex mining company was
found on wollner when he shot HIM
self Through their attorney. Morris
Rosenthal. wollner's widow and son
intend to apply for letters OF adminis-
tration to gain possession of this stock
and transfer IL TO the Sondheim estate
