No Relief in Sight for Some Time.
Says Professor Wiener, of
High School.


With the hot wave three days old and
guaranteed by Professor Wiener. Of the
local weather bureau. with three days
more OF life. the effects of the extreme
temperature are beginning to be seri-
GUS. One victim was claimed by the
heat last night. Thomas Skinner, so
years old, died in his home, 16 Eliza
beth avenue. as the result OF heart fall
ure. super5nduced by the intense heat.
After he had retired seemingly in the
best health, members of the aged mans
family heard him fall to the floor.
When they ran to his aid they found
him lying face downward on the floor
dead. That the death was due indi-
rectly to the heat was the verdict Of
the physician who was summoned.
Another fatal heat victim was Fred
erick Krayi, 80 years old, Of 50 Belle
VILE avenue. who died in st. Michaers
Hospital late this morning. Krayl
was taken to the hospital from his
home, where he collapsed Tuesday eve
ming, and efforts to revive him were
futile. He was a 5ourneyman jeweler,
and had not been feeling well since
Saturday.
Policeman Thomas W. Duffy's death,
told Of elsewhere. was also probably
due to the heat.
This now makes total of four
deaths due to heat this week.
Newarlkers are to be congratulated
that SO few cases Of prostrations on the
street have been reported to the hos
pitals, as this Is acknowledged to be
one of. the most severe spells Of hot
weather which they have had to en-
dure in many years. Owing to the
great humidity-it is averaging Sc
per cent.-the weather Is more oppres-
sive than it was during the ten-day
hot season of June. 1901. when the ther-
mometer averaged for the last i've
days of the superheated season from 50
to sS degrees. At that time the aver
age humidity was only 65. The average
temperature Sunday was 75 degrees.
1t was 79 degrees Monday and 50 yes
terday.
During the hot spell of 1901 the aver
age temperature varied from 75 to So.
but the reduced humidity made 1t far
more endurable and less dangerous
than the present siege.
No general storms which Will clear
the weather situation are in sight. The
ones will have to depend
on local talent entirely In the storm
line. as the weather maps show nothing
big headed this way.
Mr.. Skinner, last nights aged victim
Of the heat, lived in Plantsville, Conn,
until two years ago. when he sold his
farm and came to live with his son.
Benjamin Skinner, who conducts an
undertaking establishment at 204 Clin-
ton avenue He celebrated his eightieth
birthday on June IL last. The inter-
ment viii be In Plantsville. Conn.
Mrs. Sarah Schenck. 40 years old, was
overcome with the heat in front of IS
Barclay street today. She was removed
to her home. 2S1 Prince street, In the
Fourth Precinct patrol.
While working at Fourth ana Orange
Streets John Harris. a negro laborer.
50 years old. OF 23 Hecker street, was

condition Is not regarded as serious.

SAN FRANCISCO, june z4.--It Il
rumcred that Leon Ling was captured
today on the steamer Mancburia.


NEW YORK, June 24--Rumors and
conjectures as to the whereabouts of
Leon Ling, the young chinaman who
is sought by the detectives In charge
Of the Elsie Sigel case, continued in
abundance today. There was also a
fresh crop of theories as to the mo-
tives which had prompted the crime
and as to the exact manner Of It's
commission, but despite almost hourly
rumors of the capture of the missing
chinaman in almost every quarter Of
the United States. there was nothing
tangible upon which to base a clue OF
use in tracing down the murderer.
The Chinese Empire Reform Associa-
ton today sent out letter to It's ITO
branches throughout the country cali
ing upon them to give aid In finding
Leon
A meeting Of the Christian China

theory Of Quon Yick Nam. that ths

not be confirmed. as the handkerchief

clares he saw over her mouth. has dis

Death Threat In Letters.
The finding Of the two letters writ
ten by Leon to Chu Gain. whom he
regarded as his rival In the affections
of the Sigel girl. in which Leon threat
ems the life of both Chu Gain and
the young woman. is the best evidence
obtained as yet TO show the motive OF
the case. Both these letters. which
are in Chinese and signed The Chief. %
we're today shown to Chung Sin and
readily identified by him as having
been written by the fugitive. The text
of these letters has not been revealed,
but 1t is known that in them Chu

death unless he discontinued his at
tentions TO Elsie SigeI
Chu Gain has also said that his own
brother brought him oral warning.

Club Trouble.

The tallest member of the WidOwers'
Club announced at the last meeting that
he had become disgusted with that body
and had determined to secede
This statement produced sensation,
and suggestions OF "treasOn' and "sub,
jugation" were first whispered and then
openly alleged.
The tall member insisted, however,
that 'lt is just no use to tell me that
house keeping can be run successfully on
a solo basis. 1t is duet affair, and
know it, and | am going to sing it, So,
gentlemen, you have my resignation
After Thursday, December 30, | will be
no brother to you? ?"
He reached for his hat and walked
out!
The worst of all is he had been slated
for the presidency ensuing term" and
now the chaplain has to take the office!
