Hated Enemy of Colonel
Roosevelt.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 49,
Colonel William Stewart, enemy of
Roosevelt and exile to rattlesnakes,
tarantulas and an Arizona desert,
is back in the limelight
Stewart was placed forcibly on
the retiring lat without being &C
corded an opportunity to undergo
the usual riding and endurance
tests.
His friends are making every eff
fort to secure for him the rank of
brigadier-general retired. Previous
to his examinations by the army
retiring board Stewart was ordered
to take a 90-mile horseback riding
test at Fort Grant, Ariz. The ex-
aiming physician refused to per-
NIT him to make the test, declaring
his physical condition was such
that it might endanger his life.
A bill to advance the rank of
Colonel Stewart to brigadier gen
eral has been introduced in the
house by Congressman Kahn of
California, and in the senate by
Senator Chamberlain of Oregon.
Colonel Stewart now lives in Wash
ington, where he has ridden more
than 1000 miles and walked 1900
during the last year, to Justify his
recent contention that he was
physically fit to continue his army
duties.

days pending investigation for rela-
tives to pay for burial, and then
turn the body over to the county

missioner J. S. Philips this morn
ing, when speaking in reference to
the MerrervilIe case, where the
body of the suicide was turned over
to Alexander TurnhulI by Coroner
SchIegel, and when no relatives
could be found, Undertaken Bu-
chanan was notified to take the
body away and bury it at the county
expense.
Il don't blame buchanan for re-
fusing TO accept the body" contin-
ued Phillips. Our agreement with
him was that he should secure all
of the coroner cases and we mott
fiedCoroner Schlegel to that effect
The reason Buchanan offered to
bury the county dead for $40 per
body was with the understanding
that he should be allowed to realize
on bodies claimed by relatives for
burial. Smith AZ Co. buried the dead
free OF charge because of the pos
sibility of friends or relatives turn
ing up to give the bodies decent
burial"
SO that's the way the matter
stands. Until Coroner Schlegel be-
gan to give cases to different un-
dertakers trumor has it that all
