QUEST TOMORROW

The inquest over the remains of
Mary G.. Stafford, the woman found
dead in Pullman berth on Southern
Pacific train No. 10 at an early hour
Yesterday morning, is still in progress
before Coroner Dunn and a jury. An
autopsy is being conducted today by
Drs. Giroux and Pope, but the sur
geons had not submitted their report
up to late hour this afternoon
From testimony of witnesses at the
inquest il was learned that the woman
took the train at the Oakland mole
Tuesday evening, with a through tick
ct to Chicago. At about $3.50 O'Clock
yesterday morning her dead body was
discovered in the berth by the Pull
man porter. DIR. Colby, who was
aboard the train, was called upon,
and wired ahead to Coroner Dunn, and
the body was taken from the train at
Winnemueea and taken to Ayers un-
dertaking parlors.
Coroner Dunn wired to the chief of
police at Chicago and was placed in
communication with a brother, John
W. Golf, residing in that city, who
wired to have the body embalmed and
forwarded by express, which will
probably be done as soon as the in
quest is concluded
However a wire from the chief of
police of San Francisco stated that
the woman s husband will leave that
city for Winnemucca tomorrow after
noon. He should arrive here some
time Saturday, and may wish to take
charge of the remains.
1t was also learned that the unfor-
tunate lady's maiden name was Mary
Gertrude Goff and that she was born
az st. Joseph Mo-, June %, 1877.
Thus far there has been nothing
learned to indicate that death was due
to other than natural causes.
This afternoon Judge J. A. Lang
with received wire from the district
attorney of San Francisco, asking
for the particulars of the death, which
were sent him.
It is not thought that a verdict will
be reached by the jury before tomor-
row.

days when the coiored people would

them. The famous Nashville Stud

mean two solid hours of wholesome
and invigorating fun and amusement.
The Nashville Students will positive
ly be at the Nixon opera house tomor-
