LUMBER WORTH 100000
Is DESTROYED IN BLAZE
Hot Journal Ignites ShaVings and Two
Planning Mills Are Destroyed
Hour After Plants Are
Closed for Day

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 10,--A large
quantity of lumber, including costly
imported hardwood, went up in smoke
tonight in a fire which destroyed the
two planning mills and hardwood supply
of Edward F. Nichaus & Co. and the
lumber yard of the Van Arsdale Harris
company adjoining.
The fire broke out in one of the mills
of the hardwood company at o'clock,
an hour after the plant had closed for
the day, and it is believed that a hot
journal ignited the mill refuse of shaw
ings and the like on the floor.
The fire gained great headway be-
fore it was discovered, and despite the
fact that three alarms were turned in
and a large portion of the city fire de-
partment was pitted against it's spread.
the blaze completely wiped out the two
mills and spread to the big lum Der
yard near by.
The Niehaus company had a large
store of hardwood logs piled in its
yard, and these were also destroyed.
1t is impossible to place an exact fig-
ure on their loss, but it is estimated to
be not less than $200,000 approximately
half insured while the Van Arsdale
Harris company, who lost a million
feet of general lumber, suffered to the
extent of 100000, also about half COW
cred by insurance.

ALBANY, West Australia, Friday,

trance to Princess Royal harbor IN

DONOHUE MURDER
STILL A MYSTERY
OAKLAND POLICE CONFESS
THEY ARE P0WERLESS
Writer Expected Violent Death and
Besought Donohue to Declare
the Woman Was Not
His Wife
Dy Associated Press.

Dy Associated Press
OAKLAND, Cal, Sept. 10.-The police
this morning finally admitted that they
were unable to further solve the nys-
terious murder of Mrs. Alice Donohue
on June Ii, in Emeryville.
This morning Capt Peterson was
given a letter written by Joseph Berry,
tke woman's former consort, to Daniel
/ Jnohue, which reached Oakland after
the latter's suicide. 1t was taken from
the postoffice by Deputy Public Admin
istrator Flood. The letter is from
Knob Shasta county, and bears date
of September 4, and in 1t Berry asks
Donohue to tell everybody who the
murdered woman was and to make
public the fact that she was not his
wife, threatening If he did not do so
he would himself notify all the lodges
and the newspapers.
One quotation in particular from the
letter Is considered pertinent. 1t read:
II thought@tha such a thing would
happen a long time ago, since the last
time I see her on the 21st day of April,
1901, at Forty sixth street, Oakland"
This had reference to the murder of
the woman.
The police are searching for Philip
G.ickman, tailor, who formerly lived
near the Waldorf hotel, in Vallejo, and
who is the owner of a race horse, Royal
White. 1t is alleged by witnesses that
he was the last man seen with Mrs.
Donohue. An analysis of the handker-
chief found in Ahlstedts possession,
and which was spotted with blue marks,
shows that it contained no drug and
that the marks were merely dye stains.
No arrangements have been made for
the funeral of either Donohue or his
putative wife, nor will there be any
made until the relatives arrive at the
end of the week.

DAVIS FORMALLY
HELDFORM MURDER
is CHARGED WITH KILLING
DR.. RUSTIN
Declares He Saw Suspect Near the
Wounded Mans Home in Early
Morning While Answering
Patients Call
Ey Associated Press

BY Associated Press
OMAHA, Sept. 10.-Late this after
noon County Attorney English tiled a
complaint against Charles E. Davis,
charging him with murder in the nrst
degree in connection with the shooting
of DR.. Frederick Rustin, the morning
of September 2. The time of the hear
ing was not set.
An important development was
brought to the attention of the county
attorney late this afternoon when DE-
j. p. Lord, the physician called by MIS-.
Rustin to attend her husband immedl-
ately following the shooting, told the
police that on his way to the hustih
home the morning of the shooting ne
met a man answering the description
of Davis, two blocks from Whefe Dr'
Rustin was shot, and coming from the
direction of the dying physicians nome.
This factor was not brought out at the
inquest, although DR.. Lord was one OF
the witnesses.
Chief Donahue this afternoon de-
clared it was the most significant bit OF
evidence thus far secured. DR.. Lord
gave a very minute description of the
man, which follows very closely in de-
tail that of Charles T.. Davis.
"The man came staggering along the
street" said DR.. Lord. "He passed not
more than thirty feet from me. l not
ed him particularly because of the
hour and the circumstances, although
1 did not speak to him."
DIR. Lords story fits well into the
evidence presented to the coroner's
jury and Indicates the man might have
been in the vicinity of the Rustin res
idence ten to fifteen minutes before
DIR. Lord met him, or about the time
the shooting is said to have occurred.
The police are still searching for the
missing revolver and have covered ev-
cry foot of territory within several
blocks of the Rustin home without sue
