WOMAN ACCUSED
Of WOMAN'S Death
Mrs. Louis Marchand Succumbs
to Operation Performed
at Her Home

Baff1ed by the complete secrecy and
cunning displayed by her the police
find themselves without a single clew
or fact which will aid them in the
search for woman doctor wanted in
connection with the death of Mrs. Louis
Marchand, wife of stone mason, 210
Sixteenth avenue, who died early yes
terday morning from the effects of a
criminal operation. At the conclusion
of days search Detective Burke was
forced to admit that the caution and
astuteness displayed by the practition-
er, brought about evidently by the po-
lice activity against Doctor Grant and
his ilk. left him absolutely in the dark
as to her identity.
MAKES SECRET VISIT
1T is the most remarkable covering
of tracks I have run across" he said
THE manner in which it has been con-
Quoted makes it evident to us that
rpalpractitioners have not been fright
ened away by the activity of the police
but that instead they intend to carry
on their lucrative work with all the
secrecy and cunning possible
So secret was the entire affair that
even the husband had no inkling Of
what had occurred until a few hours
before his wife's death. According to
neighbors a heavily yelled woman ap-
peared at the residence Friday, and,
after staying an hour or SO, left Mar
chand was away at his work when she
made the visit. After her departure
Mrs. Marchand informed one of the
neighbors that the visitor was lady
DOCTOR"
CALLS AGAIN
Monday afternoon the professional
visited the house a second time. heavily
Marchand was informed by his wife
that she had undergone an operation,
and few hours later he realized that
she was dying. He called in DR.. E. L.
Fassett, $50 Clement street. but the
woman died before he arrived. On
making an examination, Doctor Fassett
reported the death to the coroner.
The police went to work on the case
Immediately, but all their efforts were
fruitless. So clever had been the
woman doctor that in giving her in
structions to the patient she made the
latter write them out herself.
PRACTITIONERS ARE CAUTIOUS
From what can gather" said
Burke, neither Marchand nor his wife
knew the professional name The
woman, / think, was sent from some
Office She appeared secretly, did her
work and went away. Her second
visit was as secret as the first She
left no clew by which she could be
traced. We have a vague description
of her from the neighbors, but to trace
her by that is almost hopeless"
The developments Of this particular
case are to result in a stricter investi-
cation and more determined effort to
stamp out this species of crime. Since
the arrest of Doctor Grant the signs
and advertisements formerly Haunted
from offices and windows have dis
appeared, but the police do not for
moment believe that the colony Of NAL
practitioners intend to leave the field
unless pressure of the strongest kind
Is brought to bear upon them.

ORPHANAGE MAY
BE REBUILT Soon
Sisters Hope Mount St. Jo-
seph's Asylum Will Be
Reared in City

To rebuild Mount ST. Joseph's orphan
asylum in the city and not to return to
the former site in South San Francisco
is the strongest hope of the Sisters of
Charity just now. and all of their plans.
although tentative, are centered around
that hope
Sister Helena. superioress, believes
that Father Sullivan, superior of their
order, Will reach here this week from
st. Louis, and Archbishop Riordan, who
is deeply interested in the rebuilding of
the orphanage, is expected home this
week also. When they arrive in San
Francisco they will consult with the
sisters and formulate definite plans as
to what manner of building will be
erected and where it will be placed.
The old routine of life is fairly well
established in the orphanage now, and
after school the girls gather for sewing
instruction as in former days.
MANY HAPPY REUNIONS
Many parents visited the home yes
terday afternoon to see the children,
and in the great halls were pathetic
groups. Fathers with two or three,
sometimes even four little motherless
daughters gathered into their arms or
widowed mother with her little ones
like tiny chickens around her They
have felt keenly the separation during
the childrens absence in the south, and
each day joyous scenes of reunion are
enacted.
The furniture of the home is being
slowly accumulated, bits Of things"
coming in daily and adding to the
cheer. From the greenhouse at the
burned home have been taken potted
plants, palms, ferns and other dainty
trailing green things, and these in the
halls and the chapel give a touch of
beauty that is sorely needed.
GIRLS NEED SHOES
A plea has come from the sisters
for chtldren's shoes. Many shoes have
been sent but nearly all are for women
and Will not do at all for the children,
Shoes for girls from to IA, but most
of them from to 10, are crying
need, especially as the wet weather
comes on.
The Calls fund for the orphanage
continues to grow. and within a few
days considerable sums will be gained
from the benefits which have already
taken place.
