ABERDEEN, Feb. 4.-Stoutly
protesting his innocence of the
wholesale murders with which the
local police are trying to connect
him, William Gohl, agent for the
sailors union here, is today under
a special guard in the Jail at Mon
tesano.
Feared Mob.
The spiriting away of the pris-
oner from Aberdeen was prompted
by the threats Of violence on the
part of angry sailors who congre-
gated on the streets last night and
discussed the murder charges
against Gohl. The authorities
feared that the longshoremen and
sailors would storm the jail, and
lost no time in removing their
prisoner to a place of safety.
Charge With Murder.
Gohl, who came here seven
years ago from San Francisco, is
directly charges with the murder
of Charles Hatteberg, sailor, for
merly in the employ of the ac-
cused man, whose body was found
in the waters of Grays harbor
weighted down by a fifty-pound
anchor and with two jagged bull
let holes in the head.
Seek for Other Victims.
Led by the chief of police, the
search for additional bodies in the
waters of the harbor here is con-
tinuing today with renewed activ-
ity. Scores of men are engaged in
the work, but up to noon their ef-
forts had been unrewarded.
Gohl has waived his right to a
preliminary hearing, and this aft
ernoon is seeking counsel to de-
fend him.
The murder of Hatberg Is sup
posed to have occurred on the
evening of Dec. "a, and John
Hoffman is supposed to- have been
killed on the same night.
According to the police, boasts
made by Gohl led to the fnvestiga-
ton and the finding of Hatberg's S
body.
Public feeling is running high
here and the citizens are demand
ing a rigid investigation into the
mysterious deaths of two score OF
sailors, whose bodies have been
found in the harbor here.
In addition to the murder of
Hateberg, the police also are try
ing to get some explanation of the
death of 40 persons whose bodies

Governor Sawyer, with a party of
volunteer searchers. started up
Mount Tamalpais today In search
of the skeleton of woman which
was found by mountain climbers
yesterday, and which it is believed
will reveal the result of mys-
terious murder or suicide.
The remains were found by AL
fred Eckstein and Wilhelm
Kusk, both of San Francisco, af-
ter they had missed the trail and
wandered upon an unfrequented
slope of the mountain.
Upon one wrist was gold
bracelet set with an imitation
amethyst. A gold filled watch
and chain lay in such a position
as to indicate that 1t had been
worn upon the breast of the
woman.
Astraw hat had survived the
effects of the elements and gave
signs of having been rather hand
some.
Strands of hair showed that she
was a blonde and the skeleton IS
that of a rather large woman.
The skeleton lay at the crest of
a little knoll from which a far
sweeping view of the bay and sur
rounding country was obtained.
