ALAMEDA, Dec. B.— .Mystery at
taches to the death of M. D. Burnett,
a wealthy rancher of Davisville, who
disappeared from Oakland two weeks
ago. His body was found floating in
the bay today, about 200 yards off the
Alameda mole, by W. W. Cooper of
1113 Magnolia street, Oakland, who
was hunting on the tide fiats. Burnett
was a temperate man and his relatives
and friends are inclined to believe that
he met with foul play. Only 31 cents
in coin and a deposit check for $325
on the Security bank -and trust com
pany of Oakland were found on his
person.

least two pieces of gold coin and some
«Ilv«r in his pockets. This is stated
by his cister. In law. Mrs. J. A. Bur

these coins were not found in the cloth- j
ing. she Is of the opinjon that Burnett
fell in with men who \obbed him and
threw him into the bay.

according to her showed Improvement
In health and good spirits.
When Barnea disappeared and did j
not return, his sister in law and other
relatives enlisted the aid of the police
cf the bay cities to search for him.
Burnett's body, when taken from the
crater, was clothed in an overcoat,
trousers, vest and a soft shirt. There
\u25a0was no small coat. It was identified in
the morgue by letters and papers. The
body had been battered on the rocks
in the bay so that the features were ;
T "recognizable.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL
GOLDFIELD, Nev^ Dec. 8.— "I I
\ would not be surprised 1 ; to see the;
mines o^ Goldfield reopened within
two or three days."
This was the statement made late
| tonight by George .Wingfield, . vice
'\u25a0\u25a0 president of the Goldfield consolidated
j mining company and yjee president of
the Cook bank. Further than this^-he
declined to discuss the strike situa
tion.
- It is known, however, that the mines
will be reopened >not •*•* later^S than
Wednesday; that "the^association s£
ready has men here prepared to go to
I work - and that arrangements have
been made to bring in many more. ,
, The' mine, owners met tonight and de
cided to reopen their properties within
a tveek. They will meet again tomor
row morning to decide upon the- exact
date,., which. ;WUI not be later than
Wednesday.
"Wingfieid entertained tonight the of
ficers in charge of the troops. Captain
Cox, Governor Sparks' representative,
and a number of operators at his apart
ments in the Consolidated building. The
gathering was for the purpose of bring
ing the federal and state authorities
into touch with the situation from the
opposite points of view.
CRISIS IS AT HAXD
The operators have determined to
make a final stand this/week in their
I contest with the miners. A. prominent
member of the association said tonight
that wages probably would be reduced,
that the cost of living in Goldfield
i would be lowered and that the camp
: would be "open." .. .—
| Governor Sparks wired tonight to
his representative, Cox, that he would
arrive Thursday to. take charge of the
state's end of the situation. Cox and
Colonel Reynolds of the regulars vis
ited today the point on the Goldfield
and Tonopah railroad where dynamite
was discovered several days ago, about
two miles distant. v
"We found that holes had -been bored
in three poles supporting the cables
which carry the power fpr the electric
and water supply in Goldfleld," said
Cox. "I was informed that 40 or 50
sticks of dynamite had beeti .placed at
the bases of the poles, but thatthey
had failed to explode. 5 Partially
burned fuses were found. The investi
gation has not been completed.
- "President McKinnon of the miners*
union assured me today that' the mem
bers of the federation were anxious; to
have, ordsf maintained and that he
would furnish ail the ;> men - needed- to
protect life and property if Such action
were necessary. I do not expect any
violence upon the reopening of - the
mines. ~y i-^'- . |
DE.MES REPORTS OF VICLEME -
President x McKinnon \of the local
union says that there, is no truth-in
the reports of attempts to dynamite
trains and telegraph ;poles. lie asserts
that the miners "da not desire -to rriako
their fight in that *;rhonhcr. The of- [
ficials of the mine owners' association,!
on the other hand, allege that several
attempts have be«n made to destroy
property. Ulijil

Bryce to Quit British

Successor Is Said to Be
* Sir Henry Howard \
LONDON", Dec. S.— A letter was post
ed today addressed to James Bryce, 1
British ambassador in Washington, re
questing his presence in London. It is
expected, that he will, comV early in tha
new/year :f or : a consultation with the
government authorities,, principally in
reference 4o the relations between, the
United States and Japan.
It is believed ther'e> is little likeli

ington post. In case he' docs- not' his
successor." it >Is undsrstood,; willbe Sir
Henry Howard; present minister, to the
Netherlands, .stationed -at- The Hague.
In ; explanation of this action by the
authorities, it is said that Ambassador
Bryce never contemplated a long resi-'
dence In Washington arid named a year
as the possible limit of his service. The
British authorities, for: obvious reasons,
are extremely', anxious/, to. maintain
good, relations with tlva United^ States
and Japan, and if ; Bryce' should insist
on* retiring -they^ "will send a man of
wide diplomatic, experience to handle
