Francisco en route to the Philippines, desire to include their pool tables among their baggage sundries. The railroad company has Issued a vigor- ous objection, and the accumulated wrath of the entire army "corps is to be visited upon the heads of the railroad. Thinking that -their -pool tables would serve to while away the dreary hours >in the tropics, the Twelfth Cavalry officers, Btationed at Fort Clark and Fort Sam Houston, Texas, began to pack their cues and crate their tables preparatory to sending some 3000 pounds of -weight half- way around the world for their future edification. But the railroad interfered. According to the contract with the Gov- ernment each officer is entitled to 130 pounds of baggage, and no more. Unless the officers of the Twelfth wished to di- vide the tables among themselves and carry s*. marble slab or so In their suit cases the pool tables must stay. Such was the flat of the railroad. Lieutenant Colonel William Ellis sent his plaint to the Secretary of War in tha following terras: "It Is borne in mind that under a strict construction of. the terms of the con- tract the railroads have a right to de- cline to carry these tables as part of the allowance of personal baggage, although the average weight of this baggage may be less than 150 founds. They have availed themselves of ., this .fact . to raise objections to the transportation of the ta- bles as part of the personal baggage." Ever zealous of the rights of the army, even as against. the railroad, the Secre- tary of War found himself up against a hard proposition in this instance. So in reply to Colonel Ellis he has guaranteed that the pool tables will get to Manila If he has to enlist the services of the whole quartermaster's department. The officers of the - Twelfth are . consequently fore- warning their brother officers at the Pre- sidio to keep a sharp lookout for a Gov- ernment freight ship loaded with pool .tables. ¦ TALKS VOLUBLY OF HIS OFFENSE Railroad Declines to Term Soldiers 1 Play- . things Baggage.

Whalen was granted a divorce yesterday from Johanna Whalen on the ground of desertion. Adeline Carroll was separated from Grant F. Carr611 for ne- glect. LUlie B. Clement secured a divorce from George B. Cl.ement becaus^ the lat- ter failed to provide for her wants. Ellen Jane Andrews was divorced from John Andrews for neglect. Nora Matthews was given a divorce from Manuel Mat- thews on the ground of cr^lty and Mary A. Quinlan secured a separation from Timathy Quinlan for neglect. Many Divorces Granted. The mask found in the overcoat is made from a cheap blue cotton handkerchief and the revolver is of a * cheap pattern. Six of the chambers were loaded, three with short cartridges and the others with long ones. The weapon will no doubt play an important part' in locating tho crooks and landing them behind the bars.

Tho messenger gave a" good description of the trio to the police. ' ;i Mrs. Tuttle had made - an appointment to meet a real estate man by the name given and called him up on the telephone In regard to the message. He informed her that he had not sent the note and called her attention to tho fact that Polk and Larkin streets ran parallel and that there could be no such corner as that designated. Mrs. Tuttle left-the house to go to his office some time afterward and as soon as she had departed the assault and attempted robbery took place. The police are of the opinion. that the crime was committed by some , of the "cappers" for the cheap real estate firms, as the manner In which the robbery was- planned seems to indicate ' that the per- petrators . were . amateurs/ as no pro^- fessional crooks would take tho chance of detection by. disclosing to so many people, and tbe .bungling manner in.which tho attempt was made also c&x- ries out that theory. Mrs. Tuttle has been* visiting a large number of real estate of - flees with a view toward Investing hi a house and . there is no doubt that her statement that her husband had recently died, leaving her $6000, aroused. the cupid- ity of some of the tiangers-on around the offices and they surmised that the money was kept in the house. Tho , detectives are inclined to the belief that nothing was known of the jewels possessed' by Mrs. Mathews. HSSRSftMi Fopplewell . jumped on his wheel and started on his errand. Before going, how- ever, the man gave ,strict instructions that in the. event any questions were asked at the house he was to state that he had received the message at the office. When the messenger reached the corner of Fillmore and Haight streets on his bi- cycle the sender of the message and two other men were standing at the corner. The dark stranger, again- cautioned 1 tho boy not to t*ll where he got '. the -. note. It was delivered to Mrs. -Tuttlel It' read aa follows, a mistake having evidently been made in naming Polk for McAl- lister street: ¦--,-. - March 4, 1903. CAUTIONED . BY CROOK. stolen property shows that the coat found corresponds with the description fur- nished by Adelstein at. the time it was stolen. The police located yesterday the mes- senger boy who delivered the decoy let- ter to Mrs. Ida Tuttle, daughter of Mrs. Mathcws, at the Halght-street house on Wednesday noon. He is Herbert Fopple- well and is employed by the American District Telegraph Company. He is sta- tioned at the branch office of the com? pany at Larkin and Hayes streets. Ac- cording to the story told by the -boy a j tall, dark man, wearing a soft hat and the coat identified by Adelstein, entered the office and asked for a messenger.. to deliver a note In a hurry. He was told that there was no available boy in the office and that he would have to wait. He returned shortly, and seeing Fopple- well on the sidewalk called him. The boy was given permission to carry the mes- sage and the stranger entered the storo of W. H. Kirsten^it 4 Hayes street and wrote it. of the girl whom he was to make his wife on Tuesday night next. Without a single clew left behind him to give a hint of his whereabouts, and with the preparations for the coming bridal feast all made, the prospective groom is not to be found and the bride- to-be is beside herself with grief. Itwas on Saturday last that Howe left his home, stating to his friend, George B. "Wiseman, that he was going to a Kearny-street tailor to pro-cure a wed- ding gown for his prospective bride. Miss Julia Williams,' of Floriston, Nevada County. He had about $50 in cash with him.

What is regarded as a clew that may i*ad to the identification of the bold Crocks was found by Lawrence Water- Lury; eon of Percy > v - AVaterbury. proprl- efor of the Charter Oak market, 135 Gough strct t. yesterday morning. While enter- ing tda home at S^2 Waller street, which js but a fhort distance from the scene of the erim'. Lawrence** attention was at- irnci<"d by a handsome overcoat lying in »ho Elirubbery in the front garden. Ho picked up the jrarmeru and upon examlna. f-or. found a "^-raliber revolver and a mask in cr.e of th«* i>ocketF. Fearing to j'.iarrn his mother hy Br>pri Elng her of the dJaoovety, he lock the coat with him on »hr delivery wagon he was driving to hie father's 'establishment and showed him the find. The police wer© immediately , uotifieO and Detectives Dinan and Taylor, vlio are working on the case, called and « xamir.ed the garment. The peculiar make led them to behave that a most im- . i.»ortant clew had been unearthed. The various tailoring establishments and "< ''Ahing stores were visited during the tiay with a view toward ascertaining: \VJiere' the coat had been purchased. AH the proprietor? declared that the gar- i*"!<-nt was of Eastern manufacture and they did not think It had been purchased lit this; cltv. " COAT IS IDENTIFIED. The ftatements of the various clothiers fhat the coat was a ready-made garment and had undoubtedly been made in the ];ast was knocked in the head last even- ing by J. David Adelstein, a cutter c-m- jiloyed at the Standard shirt factory and •ra&Ang at 1017 Post Etreet, who called at the Hall of Justice and informed the de- tedlvca that the coat was his property and had been stolen from his room in a . itouse at the couthwett corner of Larkln and McAllister streets just four weeks ago. Mr. Adelstrin is positive In Ins identification of the coat, inasmuch as he "did the cutting himself and superintend- ed the making of it. In speaking of the matter last evening he said: Tb» first mtimati.on 1 had that tlw> coat found T.i {o:inr*otion with the case was mine was when 1 *h-xv the pictures and read thf description 'p the evening JJ2JXTT.. About four wetks ago. whiH? I wae rooming at the southwest corner of McAllister and L^rkinstreets, a sneakthiet 'nterpd my rcxjni and after breaking op»>n the bureau drawers and searching the room, took my coat. Benny Bernard, a bartender, who o*-cupied a room in tbe sarn" house, suffered Vie loes of olotltes anrl valuables to the amount «f several liur.dre<l dollars. I regarded it as . Mrariffe at th<* timp that a new Fult of clothes v.'hich huns near the overcoat had not been . taken. The matter was reported to the police «t the time and I gsve them a description of she coat. I am i>ositiv«? that the garment found i? the one 1 cut and had made. I copied the l>au*rri from an Kartern model and the design t<t the cuffs wag somewhat original. Th» roo<Js were heavy ltersey of a dark gray color tilth faint red and green stripe*. The lapels " feilk faced and the collar war- of dark KT*cn velvet. Tiv? silk on the lapel* was tome- what worn on the inside of the coat and I ! 1 intended refaclng it. The coat found has the I lining worn in the tame place as I state. I .am absolutely Fure that it is my coat. I was Komewl_at timid tbout coming to the police ebout the matter, fearing that I would >>«• <1rawn into the case, but after discussing the matter with my relatives, I considered It my duty 'to apprise the police department of the matter and so called, on Detectives IMnan and , Taylor his evening and identified the coat. MESSENGER IS FOUND. Adelstrin was in the employ of Lowen- berg & Co. as a cutter for several years, and Bnly recently accepted his new posi- tion with, the Standard factory. The po- lice feel much gratined that the gentle- ' man called and identified his property, as much lxard work would have been en- tailed in endeavoring to ascertain where th«? coat had been purchased, and the fact that it was stolen but a short time ago proves conclusively that the fellow who <lid the pilfering at the Larkin-street house a^so assisted in the attempted bur- glary on Haight street. An examination of the records containing descriptions of -Garment Is Identified by J. D. Adelstein, From Whom It Had Been Stolen. Boy Finds Overcoat Discarded in the Plight How Carty learned the fact that there v.cre some vacant lots lying in the name of Luke McCarty and how he came to pose as their owner. Is a matter that has aroused speculation. He was not in the real estate business and hence it looks as if his attention was called to the prop- erty by some one who was familiar with the business and also well - acquainted with him. He was known sometimes as McCarty and with the owner of the lots dead,' the fraud became comparatively easy, though certain to be unearthed when the time came for paying the taxes. * Captain of Detectives Martin believe* will* soon have Luke Carty, who forged the deed to the lots belonging to the Mc- Carty heirs, in custody. After the money received from the sale of thie lots "cut up" there was not a large sum left for the man who impersonated the dead Luke McCarty, and the head of the detectiva department doesn't believe he got very far away. "You know that amount of money wouldn't last a man liko- Carty long," said Captain Martin yesterday. "We ex- pected to have him before this. We don't feel justified In making any other arrests until we get him. If he. implicates others criminally, then we'll get those he impli- cates. At present everything is passed up to Carty." . Carty, however, received enough money out of. the deal to go far beyond the-bor- ders of the State, even to South America- ItIs not thought heis as near by as Los Angeles, as Fisher states. The California Title Insurance ;a'nd Trust Company has an action against the bondsmen of Holland Smith, who certi- fied to. the signature to the deed, .but it is not thought likely that it willseek this means of recovering tho money it paid to. MeXaughton, the purchaser of the lots. Smith took Fisher's statement that Carty, was the man ho represented him- self to be.

The Most Wonderful Curative of All Time For Torturing, Disfiguring Humours. Cuticura Ointment is beyond question the most successful curative for tortur- ing, disfiguringhumours of the skin and scalp, Including loss of hair, ever com- pounded, in proof of which a single anointing with it, preceded by a hot bath withCuticura Soap, and followed in "the severer cases by a dose of Cuti- cura Resolvent Pills, is often sufficient to afford immediate relief in thfe most distressing form3 of itching, burning and scaly humours, permits rest and sleep, and points to aspeedy cure when all other remedies fail. It is especially so in the treatment of infants and chil- dren, cleansing, soothing and healing the most distressing of infantile hu- mours; and preserving, purifying and beautifying the skin, scalp and hair. Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the same time; the charm of satisfying the simple wants of the toilet, incaring for the skin, scalp,* hair and hands from in- fancy to age, far more effectually, agreeably and economically than the most expensive of toilet emollients.

Besides their gold-hilted sabers, theirfancy leather .pistol holsters and theft"

hat boxes innumerable, the officers of the

Twelfth United States Cavalry, now on-

their way to San!Francisco en route to

the Philippines, desire to include theirpool tables among their baggage sundries.The railroad company has Issued a vigor-

ous objection, and the accumulated wrathof the entire army "corps is to be visitedupon the heads of the railroad.

Thinking that -their -pool tables wouldserve to while away the dreary hours >in

the tropics, the Twelfth Cavalry officers,

Btationed at Fort Clark and Fort SamHouston, Texas, began to pack their cuesand crate their tables preparatory tosending some 3000 pounds of -weight half-way around the world for their futureedification. But the railroad interfered.

According to the contract with the Gov-ernment each officer is entitled to 130pounds of baggage, and no more. Unlessthe officers of the Twelfth wished to di-vide the tables among themselves andcarry s*. marble slab or so In their suitcases the pool tables must stay. Suchwas the flat of the railroad.

Lieutenant Colonel William Ellis senthis plaint to the Secretary of War in thafollowing terras:

"ItIs borne in mind that under a strictconstruction of. the terms of the con-tract the railroads have a right to de-cline to carry these tables as part of theallowance of personal baggage, althoughthe average weight of this baggage may

be less than 150 founds. They haveavailed themselves of., this .fact.to raiseobjections to the transportation of the ta-bles as part of the personal baggage."

Ever zealous of the rights of the army,even as against. the railroad, the Secre-tary of War found himself up against ahard proposition in this instance. So inreply to Colonel Ellis he has guaranteedthat the pool tables willget to Manila Ifhe has to enlist the services of the wholequartermaster's department. The officersof the

-Twelfth are .consequently fore-

warning their brother officers at the Pre-sidio to keep a sharp lookout for a Gov-ernment freight ship loaded with pool.tables. ¦

John J. Whalen was granted a divorceyesterday from Johanna Whalen on theground of desertion. Adeline Carroll wasseparated from Grant F. Carr611 for ne-glect. LUlieB. Clement secured a divorcefrom George B. Cl.ement becaus^ the lat-ter failed to provide for her wants. EllenJane Andrews was divorced from JohnAndrews for neglect.

The mask found in the overcoat is madefrom a cheap blue cotton handkerchiefand the revolver is of•a *cheap •pattern.Six of the chambers were loaded, threewith short cartridges and the others withlong ones. The weapon willno doubt playan important part' in locating tho crooksand landing them behind the bars. Mrs.M&thew*is sufferim: from the wounds la-

Mr» Tuttle: Pltase be at house on north-«a»t corner cf Polk and Larkln streets 1p. m..or as near that time as possible to get firstchance. . - JOHNSON'.

Tho messenger gave a" good description

of the trio to the police.' ;i

Mrs. Tuttle had made -an appointmentto meet a real estate man by the namegiven and called him up on the telephoneIn regard to the message. He informedher that he had not sent the note andcalled her attention to tho fact that Polkand Larkin streets ran parallel and thatthere could be no such corner as thatdesignated. Mrs. Tuttle left-the house togo to his office some time afterward andas soon as she had departed the assaultand attempted robbery took place.

The police are of the opinion. that thecrime was committed by some , of the"cappers" for the cheap real estate firms,

as the manner In which the robbery was-planned seems to indicate

'that the per-

petrators . were . amateurs/ as no pro^-fessional crooks would take tho chanceof detection by.disclosing toso many people, and tbe .bungling mannerin.which tho attempt was made also c&x-ries out that theory. Mrs. Tuttle has been*visiting a large number of real estate of

-flees with a view toward Investing hia house and .there is • no doubt that herstatement that her husband had recentlydied, leaving her $6000, aroused. the cupid-ity of some of the tiangers-on around theoffices and they surmised that the moneywas kept in the house. Tho ,detectivesare inclined to the belief that nothing wasknown of the jewels possessed' by Mrs.Mathews. HSSRSftMi

Fopplewell . jumped on his wheel andstarted on his errand. Before going, how-ever, the man gave ,strict instructionsthat in the. event any questions wereasked at the house he was to state thathe had received the message at the office.When the messenger reached the cornerof Fillmore and Haight streets on his bi-cycle the sender of the message and twoother men were standing at the corner.The dark stranger, again- cautioned 1 thoboy not to t*ll where he got '. the -.note.Itwas delivered to Mrs. -Tuttlel It'readaa follows, a mistake having evidentlybeen made in naming Polk for McAl-lister street: ¦--,-.- • March 4, 1903.

The police located yesterday the mes-senger boy who delivered the decoy let-ter to Mrs. Ida Tuttle, daughter of Mrs.Mathcws, at the Halght-street house onWednesday noon. He is Herbert Fopple-well and is employed by the •AmericanDistrict Telegraph Company. He is sta-tioned at the branch office of the com?pany at Larkin and Hayes streets. Ac-cording to the story told by the -boy a

jtall, dark man, wearing a soft hat andthe coat identified by Adelstein, enteredthe office and asked for a messenger.. todeliver a note In a hurry. He was toldthat there was no available boy in theoffice and that he would have to wait.He returned shortly, and seeing Fopple-well on the sidewalk called him. The boywas given permission to carry the mes-sage and the stranger entered the storoof W. H. Kirsten^it 4 Hayes street andwrote it.

Mr. Adelstrin is positive In Insidentification of the coat, inasmuch as he

"did the cutting himself and superintend-

ed the making of it. In speaking of thematter last evening he said:

How Carty learned the fact that therev.cre some vacant lots lying in the nameof Luke McCarty and how he came topose as their owner. Is a matter that hasaroused speculation. He was not in thereal estate business and hence itlooks asif his attention was called to the prop-erty by some one who was familiar withthe business and also well - acquaintedwith him. He was known sometimes asMcCarty and with the owner of the lotsdead,' the fraud became comparativelyeasy, though certain to be unearthedwhen the time came for paying thetaxes. *

Captain of Detectives Martin believe* h«will*soon have Luke Carty, who forged

the deed to the lots belonging to the Mc-Carty heirs, in custody. After the money

received from the sale of thie lots "cutup" there was not a large sum left forthe man who impersonated the dead LukeMcCarty, and the head of the detectivadepartment doesn't believe he got very

far away."You know that amount of money

wouldn't last a man liko- Carty long,"said Captain Martin yesterday. "We ex-pected to have him before this. We don'tfeel justified In making any other arrestsuntil we get him. Ifhe. implicates otherscriminally, then we'll get those he impli-cates. At present everything is passed upto Carty." .

Carty, however, received enough moneyout of.the deal to go far beyond the-bor-ders of the State, even to South America-ItIs not thought heis as near by as LosAngeles, as Fisher states.

The California Title Insurance ;a'ndTrust Company has an action against thebondsmen of Holland Smith, who certi-fied to. the signature to the deed, .but itis not thought likely that itwillseek thismeans of recovering tho money it paidto. MeXaughton, the purchaser of thelots. Smith took Fisher's statement thatCarty, was the man ho represented him-self to be. The Title Insurance and TrustCompany Is ready to back the police inany prosecution they begin in the mat-tor. . : • •
