STORY OF HAWKINS' MURDER.
Jetties and Healey Charged
With the Crime.
flCf Were Arraigned Yesterday at
Long Beach.
im iaiarvl*" With Saltlas aad What
ga Disclosed — Hon- Poar
Old Hawkins Was
Murdered.
On th* night of April 20 of this year
loan Hnwkini, an aged baker of Wil
ninatou, wee fonnd murdered in hia
oom in tbe rear of hia shop. He had
teen killed by strangulation.
From the appearance of the body
shen found it seemed ai though Hawk
ns bad been strapped down by tbe rob"
sere in order to give tbem a chance to
ilunder bis effects. It ii not supposed
ihey intended mnrder. and tbeir inten
iloni seem to have been simply robbery.
The robbers, however, showed no mercy
In tbeir method and left tbe old man to
lie of slow strangulation. .
The deed was a most inhuman one.
Hawkins must bave suffered and strug
gled for bis life in the very presence of
the robber, who, however, took tbe
precaution to keep him from making an
latory. His face was horribly distorted;
i deep cut showed plainly under the
left eye; • great gash opened a scalp
wound from the forehead to the back of
Ihe bead and tbe eyea bulged nearly
lrom their sockets.
Hawkins was accustomed to rising
md going to work in hia bakery as early
is 4 o'olock in the morning, the next
morning after the mnrder. Constable
In ma n in paseing the old baker's shop,
aoticed that the Tjjndows were closed,
Iho blinds down, and that no one seemed
io be aronnd. Tba constable tried the
loon and windows and found them
lightly fastened. The first thing to at
tract his attention was a broken pane of
glasa in a front window. Upon going to
% rear window he discovered where an
•ntrance bad been effected, and further
Investigation showed Hawkins lying
apon his bed cold in death.
Sheriff Cline and all the officers at
Wilmington worked for months on the
mnrder, but got no oloe tbat would lead
to an artest. It proved to be a mystery
indeed.
The mystery now promises to be short
ly solved. Tbe thread of evidence
which wai gathered a day or two after
the murder of Camilla Klikan at Long
Beach has been followed to a point
wbera indications looate the morder up
on two young men now iv the county
Jail. The old aaw that murder will out
ie again likel" *icnie trne in tbe arrest
of tba men wno atand charged with
brutally taking tha life ol John Haw
kins.
Tbe peraone nnder arrest for Hawk-,
ins' death are William Kettles and L. F.
Healer. Healer and yonng Feeler are
charged with tbe mnrder of Elikan, and
it was this mnrder tbat caused tbe ar
rest of Settles. All thtee young men
had been together for yeara, aud Settles
•nd Healey were eopecial friends. Tbey
•11 resided at Long Beach.
Shortly after the arrest of Healey and
Feeler a remark by Settles ceased the
officers to suspect him of being impli
cated in Elikan'a murder, bat wben
tbey confessed and shouldered tbe blame
on each other Settles was partially
dee; d. Hia statement at once led to
the belief tbat be knew lometbinz of
Hawkins' deatb, and an investigation
led to the issuance of a warrant for hie
•rrest, (he facts o! wtiich wore exclu
sively published in yesterday's Herald.
Both Settlea and Healey were taken
to Long Beach yesterday and arraigned
injustice Rosea »us' court. Tbeir pre
liminary examination was set for next
Saturday at 10:30 o'olook.
Healey, of course, denies all com
plicity in tbe Hawkins' murder, but ad
mits tbat bis partner, Feeler, shot Eli
kan in hie presence.
When • reporter for the Herad called
Settles from hia cell at the county jail
yesterday, after he and Healey bad
been returned from Long Beach, be ap
peared smoking a cigarrette and look
ing somewhat agitated. He ia a tall,
well-proportioned young man, whose
face is not that of a murderer, hut
whose eyes might indicate • more
or leas reckless life. He is said to have
caused his family much humiliation by
bis careless aud unthrifty habits.
"What do I know about Hawkins'
murder?" be repeated after the repor
ter.
'Nothing." be said, "I bave nothing
at all to aay concerning the charge."
"Well, then you deny any knowledge
or complicity of the crime, and what do
you expect to do to clear yourself?"
"I ehall prove an alibi. On the night
of tbe murder I was in Long Beach, bnt
remember only one incident whereby I
oan prove my innocence. Tbe last time
I was in Wilmington I went there to a
dance and that was fully two months
before the mnrder of Hawkins."
"I never saw tbe murdered man in my
life. I bave lived with my father at
Long Beach, where be owns property
aud still resides, but I can't understand
bow I came to bo taken for a murderer.
Tbe man who swore to tbe complaint ie
one of the fellows who 'get their badges
from the east' —a half detective working
on his own hook. I think hia name is
Boswell."
Nothing further could be elicited from
tbe young man, except that he expects
his father and bis attorney to got
evidence enough to cause bis release at
the preliminary examination at Long
Beach next Saturday.
A Monetary Solace.
The trial of tho damage suit of Peter
Johnson, ' a carpenter, against Albert
Thomas, of tbe Union Iron works, for
injuries alleged to bave been received ou
January 15th, laet, by reason of tbe
careless driving of one of the defendant's
teamsters, was concluded yesterday in
department four, before Judge Van
Dyke and a jury. Tbe jury was only
ont 20 minutes, returning with a ver
dict for tbe plaintiff for $500.
Anyone who bas children will rejoice
with L. M. Mullord, of Plainfleld, N. J.
His little boy, five yeara of age, was sick
with oroup. For two days and nights
he tried various remedies recommended
by Irienda and neighbors. He eayß: "I
thought sure I would lose him. I had
seen Chamberlain's Cough Remedy ad
vertised and thought I would try it aa a
last hope and am happy to say that after
two dosea he alept until morning,
gave it to him next day and a cure was
effected. I keep thia remedy in the
house now and aa soon as any of the
children show auy signs of croup I give
it to them and that is the last of it."

AT LONG RANGE.
A Tate* la Han Franolsao Dlstlnotlj
Audible In Los Aerelns.
It ii now possible to talk with San
Franoisco without shouting the roof off.
Tho long distance telephone is now In
operation over a double wire, and a mur
mur in Los Angeles la hoard distinctly
in San Franoisco, 480 miles distant. A
tost from ths Herald to the Examiner,
over the Sunset Telephone company's
line, demonstrated this faot. The test
was made under the direction of Buper«
intendent Howard Keyser, who ex -
plained that although it coats 50 cents
to talk with San Franaioso 15 seconds,
the rate is actually cheaper than tbat
charged for tbe same distance by tele
graph, by reason of the fact that more
words can be transmitted over tho tele
phone in 15 seconds than can bo wired
by telegraph for the amount stated.
Tho time is counted from ths
beginning of the converiation. Tbo rate
for half a minute is $1; $1 50 for a min
ute, and 5 cents for eaoh additional sec
ond. These rates are necessary, because
only one perßon can use the wire at a
time. For ordinary, succinct business
communications the long dietance tele
phone is cheaper and more satisfactory
than the telegraph. But it Is likely to
prove an oxponnive means of communi
cation when two women are at either
end of the wire. Women comprehend
the limitations of time, space and their
husbands' pocketbuoka inadequately,
and to wed them to a long distance tele
phone under current rates io expensive
beyond the troubled dreams of avarice.
SPINNER'S EXPERIENCE.
HOW IT FEELS TO BE HELD UP
AND ROBBED.
Tha Amatla Stra.t Storekeeper Talis
How tha Footpad Out tha
Drop on Him Tues
day Might.
Tuesday evening abont 8 o'olook a
tall young man, about 20 years of age,
walked into the store of L. Spinner at
Hazard and Amelia afreets, and ad
dressing tbe proprietor, said:
"Give me your money, and give it
to me quick I"
Spinner looked up direotly into the
muzzle of a six-shooter. He immedi
ately handed out his money and watch,
acd the robber escaped.
"It waa a very trying experience,"
said Mr. Spinner, in relating tbe story
yesterday.
"The fellow wore a long black mask;
had the revolver cocked, and, though
bat a boy, evidently was there for busi
ness. Yon see, wben tbe thief cams in,
my little girl was standing by my side,
and I couldn't make any resistance. 1
thought once of watoning my obance
and attempt to knook the revolver from
the man's hand, but my little girl's
presence prevented.
"Without any hesitancy I 'dug'into
my pocket, banded out $2, all I bad,
quickly removed my watch and chain,
which I freely gave him, and bade him
good nigbt, as he started. But instead
of going out, he coolly walked behind
the counter and opened, the money
drawer. He found it empty, as my wife
had jnst removed the change a few
minutes before.
"Tban tbe robber, going to tho door,
jumped, fired hia revolver, and fled,
Really, tbe whole thing didn't take a
minute, but it aeemed like a week. 'Do
I mind such an experience.'you ask?
Well, there's only one answer —go
through it once and see."
FIRS COMMISSION.
Th, Chief Will Itnport on Location of
Now Eng-lae tToasos.
The fire commissioners did iittls busi
ness at tbeir regular meeting yesterday
morning.
Chief Moriarty reported granting tbe
petition of W. J. McGee & Son for per
mission to erect a carriage shop at Ninth
and San Pedro streets, alio that the fine
of Frank Sieba had been paid and de
posited to the credit of the fireman's re
lief fund.
The demands and requisitions were
approved.
The chief was instructed to report at
the next meeting the most suitable
location for the three new chemical en
gine bouses soon to be built.
Tbe city council was requested to ask
the local members of the state legisla
ture to have a law passed allowing per
manent firemen an annual vacation, tha
same as members of tha police depart
ment are allowed.
A JEWELER ARRESTED.
A. 8. Joseph Charged With Embezzling
a Tlmo-l'lece.
A. S. Joseph, tbe jeweler at 117 North
Spring etreet, waa arrested yesterday
afternoon on a charge of embezzlement.
The complaint was sworn out by a man
named E. G. Gerbrich, wbo claims that
Joseph kept a watch with Elgin move
ment whicb he had taken there for re
pairs. Mr. Joseph's jeweler was posi
tive that Gerbrich left a Walthan watch
workß for repairs, and returned it, bnt
the complainant wonld not accept it.
Gerbrich said the watch cost him $75,
and the jeweler told him the watch was
worth only about $15. The whole mat
ter soemn to be a misunderstanding or
a mistake ou one eide or the other, and
it cannot be believed that Mr. Joseph
kept another's property intentionally,
Hia case was set for tomorrow at 2 p.m.
Thu Pratt Mt«iin£..
Tbe downpour of welcome rain inter
fered materially witb the Fratt evan
gelistic services on tho East Sido yester

NEW SUGAR PROCESS.
Calculated to Perfect tha Mode by
Which Beet Sugar la Marie.
Inasmuch as beet oulture hae be
come an established induatry in the
southern counties of California, and tbe
amount of land being devoted to its pro
duction being greatly extended, every
ewn device tending to perfect tbe pro
cess ueed in the manufacture of beet
sugar is of interest.
At the Chino factory a very advanced
point has been reached, and in the
chemical laboratory experimentation is
beiug carried on, more or less, all tbe
time. A new process for toe precipita
tion of beet juices with an iron chloride
has been tried in Germany with great
success, and is, so it is Baid, to be tried
in this country. It is claimed that with
this method tbe precipitation is more
complete than is possible to obtain witb
liuia and the regular mode oi carbon
atstion. Tbe chloride alao preoipitatea
the albumen, and other organic sub
stancos are separated at the same time.
In this process lime is mixed witb tbe
raw juices from the battery until their
alkalinity is about 0.08 per cent, and to
30 gallons of juice is added one quart of
iron chloride, lime being then mixed in
and heated to 170 degrees. Second car
bonatation follows, and to 25 gallons of
juice one half pint of ohoride is added.
The saturation that follows ehould bring
the alkalinity down to 0.05, and when
the precipitation ia properly done there
remaino no trace of iron.
In tho German factories, too, the
manufacture of levuloso with beet mo
lasses is carried on. In this case the
saccharose is first transformed into
dextrose and levulose, and, if lime is
added, there will result a precipitate
of levulosate of lime, almost pure,
while the coloring and other substances
remain in the solution. By a careful
filtration and carbonatation it is ren
dered possible to obtain pure levulose.
The best way to avoid scalp diseases, hair
falling out, and premature baldness. Is to use
the boit preventive known for that purpose—

TF YOU WANT TO BUY A CLOAK and have the
-*- money to pay for it you can buy one here less than any
place in the city. We are turning our cloak stock into
money. The way to make a quick turn is to reduce the
price low enough to move the goods in a hurry. From 20
to 50 per cent reduction is the way to do it. It is a known
fact that we carry the largest cloak stock in the city. The
sale the past ten days has been very large. The price is
in your favor. Provided at all times you pay cash for the
goods. November and December are the best months in
the year for cloak profits. It is the harvest time for the
dealer. We will make a change in the way we do business
on the first day of January and will largely increase our
facilities. We will close every cloak to fully carry out our
present plans. You can save from $2 to $10 on your cloaks
by buying now. All cloaks are marked iv plain figures,
and from this the price is cut. We are not overstocked on
cloaks. We are not selling cloaks at a discount for the pur
pose of raising money. We have a plain out and out busi
ness proposition to follow out and are taking a loss on our
cloak sales for this purpose solely. There is no fiction
about it. There is no deception about our methods. There
is a big saving in it to you. Provided you have the cash to
pay for your cloak. This is important. This discount in
cludes every garment in the house. Furs, capes, cloaks,
shawls, for all ages and sizes. If you want to buy a cloak
on time we tell you candidly you can't buy it here. If you
go elsewhere to' buy a cloak on time you will pay from $2
to $10 for the accommodation and perhaps more. It is the
cash trade we solicit. It is the only kind we want. In
changing around we want to sell every dollar's worth of
dress goods and are making a big cut in this department.
Imported dress goods will be lower the first day of January
than they are now. Every merchant knows that to be a
fact. We are getting out from under our entire dress goods
stock and are making prices that have never been made be
fore. You receive the benefit. We are doing a larger trade
than we have for years. Remnants of silks and velvets for
fancy work at a big reduction in price. Side combs and
hair ornaments in fully one thousand different styles. By
far the largest assortment we have ever carried in this line
of goods. New windsor ties for 25, 35 and 50 cents. When
it comes to cloaks and dress goods there is no house in the
city that can equal the prices. We are making big reductions
in these two departments. Elegant canes free with ass
purchase.
