TELLS WEIRD TALE
OF WOMAN S CURSE
Aged Crippled Mechanic Asks Pro-
lection From His Alleged
Destroyer.

OAKLAND, Cal, Aug. Zone Of
| Prosecuting Attorney Hennessy's re
cent visitors was Martin Schwenk, Of
/, No. 500 Tenth-st., mechanic, who
bowed with the weight OF So years
and crippled in a manner that dis
ables him from work. told tale, pa
thetic and strange, of woman's curse
that has followed him for the last Is
years.
Ii may be that the old mans mind
is wandering, but his story is a wierd
one. He was unable to make himself
fully understood as he told the story
of his life In stumbling English
phrases, and left to procure an inter
prefer. with a promise to return in
an effort TO seek redress from the
wrongs of a wealthy and beautiful
woman who has been the cause of all
his troubles.
He says that eighteen years ago
he was working in a San Francisco
brass foundry, being a skilled me-
chanic. One day beautiful woman
entered the foundry, who was reput-
cd to be-on of its heaviest hackers,
Schwenk refuses to give this woman's
name until the matter is brought to
court, but he says that from the day
he first saw her until the present
time he has never known a minutes
peace.
According to the old mans story
he was struck by the beauty OF this
strange woman and fixed his eyes
upon her when she entered At this
moment some strange message flash
ed between the wealthy woman and
himself but a second later, angered
by the feeling that she had lowered
herself TO the standard Of work
ingman she turned upon him a pierre
ing glance OF hatred.
The: next day Schwenk was trans
ferred In his work to a dangerous
part Of the foundry. This was done,
he thinks. by the order OF the woman.
He was injured. necessitating his GO
ing to hospital for six months, but
on returning to the foundry was put
at even more dangerous work than
that at first. Again he was injured,
this time so seriously that he has
never been able to work since.
Now he claims that this woman
still Is exerting an evil influence over
him. one that he is unable to over
come. He first applied TO Judge Og-
den for redress and was directed to
the prosecuting attorney. When he
met that official he stated that he
would have 10 take his own life un.
less help from the law were given
him.

"SPINSTER" WAS A WIFE. BUT
ONLY FRIEND TO HUSBAND
Discovered After Her Death She Had
Never Lived With Her Mate.
They Liked Each Other.

FORT WAYNE, Ind, Aug: 2.-It
has just been learned that Mary Wal
tiers, a supposed spinster, who died
here recently, was long ago married
to John Murphy, a railroad engineer,
whose death occurred six years ago.
Miss" Walters and Murphy always
appeared to be warm friends, though
nothing more, and when Murphy died
Il was found she was beneficiary OF
his life insurance policies, and that
in will he left her his bank savings
and property. She refused to accept
any Of these an deverything was turn
ed over to his relatives.
Miss Walters some months ago
was stricken with paralysis. Death
followed a few days ago. A search
of her effects disclosed a marriage
certificate bearing date OF 1881, show
ing that she and Murphy had been
married. They had never since then
lived together. though none OF the
friends OF either can give a reason
and none of them ever suspected the
marriage miss" Walters came from
Norfolk, Va. The family Is said to
have been prominent in that state.

Committee.


WASHINGTON, Aug. GA rigid
investigation was ordered yesterday
to ascertain the validity of titles OF
all coal lands in Alaska; whether the
owners are maintaining good faith
and TO cover all the technicalities In
volved in the titles to Alaska coal
fields. This announcement was made
by Andrew Christensen. chief of field
division, successor to l.. r. CLAWS, au-
thor of the charges against Secretary
Balinger. He will have charge of the

tries average 160 acres and there are
over 900 entries to be investigated

to secure a new charter, elected a
commission to draft II on which Buck
lin was the only lawyer. The other
members were business men. a preach
er or so, and many workingmen.
And Bucklin's dream OF freedom
finds expression in that charter. The
salient features of his program are ::
A commission form of government,
with a separate vote on each commits
sioner who runs for specific com.
missionership
The preferential system OF voting.
by which a majority of voters must
assent before a man can assume Of
fee.
An easy method for public owner
ship of any utility or any industry
which the people elect to control
The easy use of the initiative, re-
ferendum and the recall.
An absolute prohibition against the
levying OF any special tax or fee on
any business or industry.
I'VE have aimed TO make II easy
for the citizens to express their will
and when that will Is expressed, II
becomes the law. Moreover. we have
aimed death blow at the ancient
tIlthb vi pTlNlttSt w uiNiuC bht nOn-
est and the good mentioned, by our
preferential system. OF all the weap-
ons we have obtained for real
democracy, this is the greatest" says
the man who led the battle and who.
after its victory takes pride In the
fact that he enjoys only the privileges
that every other citizen has.
Having provided for a rule of the
.4lxf h. rlf0 Ntol
tenn of voting. the new charter pro-
ceeds TO safeguard the people from
exploitation and TO provide easy
means OF letting the citizens as a
body do anything they wish.
II guards against little privileges.
as well as big ones. and specific
provision is raised against any sys-
tenn OF fees or license tax. No ped
dler, who is a citizen, is placed at a
disadvantage with his neighbor who
owns a store. No monopoly can be
created by protective tax which will
drive the man with small resources
out OF business.
How Initiative IL To Be Used.
Here are few of the powers given
to the citizens to be exercised under
the initiative:
All franchises must be granted by
