valley of a Mexican mother. He Is
said to have acquired expert knowledge
of explosives in his work as a miner.
He was known in San Francisco, nav
ing worked for some time on the re-
Gently completed customs house In that
city.
MARIN SHERIFF ON WAY HERE
Sheriff William Taylor of Marin
county left for Los Angeles yesterday
and probably will work on some inn
portant clews which he is thought to
have gathered in the northern part OF
the state.
A detective from San Francisco has
been sent to Forest Hill to look into
the identity of the miner whose
description Is reported to agree with
that of William Morris.
The officers in the northern city have
struck another important clew Whlch
probably will assist in tracing the
movements of the men who bought the
nitro powder from the Giant Powder
company at Giant, Cal. This tran
leads to the water front at San Fran
cisco and involves the gasoline
schooner Kate, which the officers be-
lieve conveyed the dynamite from the
launch Pastime to Los Angeles.
Capt F. j. Burns of the state launch
Governor Gillett informed the officers
at San Francisco that he saw launch
believed to have been the disguised
Pastime making frequent trips across
San Francisco bay to sheltered cove
near Visitacion, where the Kate lay
at anchor on September "a and 20,
The dynamite was delivered at Giant
Sentember %. The Katie sailed Sep
tember 25, having cleared for the Gal
apagos islands, and has not been seen
since.
The police believe this is a real clew,
as the sequence of dates is Identical
with the r1ovement of the dynamiters.
While the detectives in Los Angeles
are making every effort to locate the
five men who are thought to have
reconnoitered the premises of f. j.
Zeehandelaar the afternoon of last FRI
day and who are supposed TO nave
placed the time bomb beneath the
window of his home that night, the
laborers are busily engaged in delv-
ing in the ruins of the Times build
ing, where a large swinging crane is
used in removing the heavy steel
beams.
BODY LOCATED IN DEBRIS
only one body was taken from the
debris yesterday. 1t was found in
the northwest corner of the ruins and
Is the most complete corpse that mas
been found. From the appearance or
the body it is evident that death was
due to SuftOcatlOn, as 1T ndu sunSlSu
but little from fire.
When the corpse was lifted to the
sidewalk it was identified by several
employees of the Times who escaped
from the burning building as that OF
Grant Moore, q machinist, VINO llVeu
with his wife and three small children
at 1643 Ingra.ham street.
With the finding of the body yester-
day morning the total now reaches
sixteen corpses that nave peen re-
moved from the ruins.
1t Is now thought that probably
twenty-three or twenty-four persons
perished. Visitors were often in the
building late at night and at early
hours of the morning, and 1t Is be-
lieved that probably some of these
went down in the wreck.
RUINS HOLD THREE BODIES
Another body was identified yester-
day. This corpse, which was taken
from the debris Tuesday, is said to be
that of Elmer F'rink, % years old.
The Identification was made by Edith
Potts. a cousin, who lives at Cotton.
The identity is based on watch, the
shoes and q key chain which were
found on the body.

night as that Of Charles Haggerty,
pressman, now is thought to be that OF
Howard Cordaway, an assistant ma
chinist Edward Sewell stated that he
