HEROIC GIRLS DRAG
FRIEND TO SAFETY
At Risk of Lives Five Workers
in Powder Mill Rescue
Wounded Comrade
xoof Fails in Flames Behind
Them, but Fire Fighters
Are Victorious
OAKLAND, Feb. 21.— Five girls em
ployed at the E. I. Dv Pont de Nemours
powder works at Hercules braved death
yesterday and dragged Miss Mary Brazil
to safety after she bad been Injured in
the terrific explosion of packing house
No. 1, which wiped out the lives of four
white men and 20 Chinese.
Miss Brazil was struck by a falling
timber when the roof of the gelatine
rolling house, in which she and her
companions were employed, collapsed
from the concussion.
- There were stores of dynamite In the (
house, which was wrecked by the shock,
aivd outside were three cars loaded with
the explosive. All the occupants of the
gelatine house, Foreman William Fifer
and his crew of' 10 women, were thrown
from their feet by the detonation, which
hurled the beam down on Miss Brazil.
and almost at the same instant flre be
fran In the extreme east end of the
frame structure.
Seeing Miss Brazil reel bleeding to
the ground, five of the girls turned at
once to her aid and together they
hauled her to the doorway, whence men
ruehing to the seen* carried h«r away
to the company hospital. The girls who
performed this 'act of heroism were
Cora Stevens, Hattfe Malone, Kittle Kel
leher, Margaret Miller and Etta Dono
hue. i'#c:i
-BRAVED DEATH IX RESCUE
Some of these received slight contu
sions. All would have lost their lives
had the roof fallen to the ground, as
seemed Imminent. It' was caught in
midair by projections and swayed over
the little party as • they struggled to
the <3oorvray, then fell with a crash be
hind them, and the fiames started eat
ing toward the stored up dynamite.
. Filer and 15 men then began their
f.Kht against the flames and checked
the fire Just before It reached the dyna- |
rriit!?. Had they desisted for a moment]
ail would have been blown to atoms
as were the ere wof packing house No.
1. Outside the gelatine house, in the
train of four cars, was contained j
enough dynamite to blow an army to
atoms, and Fifer and his men" averted a
second explosion, in which the mor
tality probably would have exceeded
that from the first detonation.
'The work of reclaiming the" dismem
bered remains went on today under the
direction of Dr. C. L. Abbott, coroner of
Contra Costa county. All that has been
found so far is broken limbs and scat
tered fragments of the 24 victims.
Part of the body of Manuel Enos, the
engineer on the train that went up with
the packing hous* has been found.
FIND PART OF BODY
Early this morning the wrecking
party dug out a portion of a trunk and ,
a shoulder, to which still clung the!
sweater worn by the doomed engineer, j
Portions of the body of William Still
wel!, the foreman of packing house No.
1, Trere recovered some distance avray.
Identification was made only, by the
varments he tvore. Of the other dead
trainmen, Brakeman Joseph Grace and!
Joseph Rodrigues, nothing by which !
they can be identified has been . dis- i
covered. Their deaths are known by;
their absence and by the fact that all!
occupants of the packing house were
shattered to fragments by the explo
sion. Vincent Rabello and John Lucid.
the two section hands who were taken
last night to the- Lane hospital in San
Francisco, still live, although Lucid
probably is fatally injured.
The company officials profess that
they do not know how much dynamite
was discharged by the explosion. In
ttie train it is thought there were 33
boxes of the explosive, each box con
taining 100 pounds, ready to be taken
to' the storage. In the packing house
the amount blown up is not known, al
though it is said tons of dynamite were
\u25a0waiting to be packed away.

THREE NEAR DEATH
FROM RAT POISON
j OAKLAND. Feb. 21. — Poison intend-
I ed for rats found its way into the stom
achs of three small boys today, and
for a time they, were 'In a serious con
dition. By the use of emetics they
were finally . revived.
The young sufferers were John Pere
lin. 4 years . . old, of 1826 Chestnut
1 street, and Hugh and Charles, Mc
j Menomy. aged 4 and 7 years respective
ly, of 1821 Adeline street. The boys
j.wer* playing in a vacant lot near their
homes and found a can containing a
blue, pasty mixture. They Inspected
the stuff and concluded that it was
candy. • *
They proceeded to sample it, each
of the children scooping out and swal
! lowing a generous portion of " the
' stuff. In an instant they were In
] agony from the arsenic contained in
; the mixture. Screaming, they ran at
j full speed to their homes and told
their parents they had eaten' some
thing which, they found in a can.
The thought of rat poison Immedi
ately came to the paxepts and -medical
aid was secured at* once. It was
thought at first that the poison would
be fatal, but after hard work the chil
dren were pronounced out of danger.
They said that It was the sweet taste
of the poison that led • them to think
it was candy. The can of poison had
been put In the vacant lot. by i. the
health officials.

7000 MILE TRAIL
OF CRIMINAL ENDS
. NEW tfORK, Feb. 21. — A mild look
ing young man, who. described himself
as James A. BaKer of * Columbus,-; 0.,
when he was' arrested here -last night
after a 7,000 mile chase, charged with
murder and a long series, of postofflce
and railroad station robberies, is now
said to have been one of the Chatfleld-
McCoy f eudists of Kentucky. His real
name is supposed to be Dickinson. •
The prisoner was arraigned today
and held in $5,000 bonds. . The detec
tives say Baker told therri that he com
mitted several burglaries in New Eng
,land for which Joseph Kelly, -alias
Hobbs, is now under/arrest.; , |
Baker is charged with killing E..T.
Hutchinson, a telegraph operator, at
Claririgton, W. Va.', and robbing , the
railway station. > The chase led to* San
Francisco and back again to New YOrk
and was participated in by Postomce
Inspector Kincaid and Detectives Riger
and Huss of the Pennsylvania railroad.
The officers said that Baker, whose
home was a/ Columbus, Ohio, confessed
to the killing of Hutchinson, Decembei
29, and to the robbery of many post
offices and railroad stations. • . /
Baker comes of good family and is an
amateur . at robbery,; and tho officers
believe that he .began: his systematic
robbing of small postofflces and express
companies only In r November. He has
worked, they/say, under '.a number of
aliases, among them "H. C.; Noel." It
was while asking for mall at -the New
York postofflce under this name that
he. was arrested.
\u25a0'\u0084 The detectives say that he ls~engaged
to marry a girl of good family ; in
Pittsburg, whose name they'refuse to
divulge. It was; Baker's method^ the
detectives claim, ; to pick out small and
unfrequented, stations where there was
no one onduty at night and rob them
at a time .when .there was little chance
of his' being caught. %In these robr
beries, they say, he frequently secured
railroad mileage books, and At was by
the sale of these books that he was
traced.

LANGDON SUSPECTS
POLICE OF GRAFT
District Attorney Langdon, Chief
Biggy; a woman dancer of Chinatown,
whose act, the. police say, is "too
strong"; an ek-policeman turned dime
museum manager; and the' entire, squad
that patrols the Dujiont street district
figured ; yesterday in a case which
brought-up the question, "Does the po
lice department still sell protectlpn?;;-
Langdon appeared in police court es
pecially to tell- Police Judge Conlajy
that it did, and: he pointed to the arr^sjj
of the'ex-pollceman, John R. Lewis, and ;
his dancer, Violet Dane, as an instance'
of the penalty inflicted for; refusing to
pay tribute. Lewis and Miss Dane had
been arrested for vagrancy, although
the man 'held a permit to conduct a
museum.
Blggy took up the cudgels for his
men and declared that the arrests had
been matie because ..the . show' was too
Immoral even for Chinatown. But
Langdon wanted to know then why the
charge had been vagrancy instead of
Immorality. Afterward the district at
torney said that; the way to clean
Chinatown was to clean out the patrol
first/ V ' .:•. ' !*'\u25a0 .• \u25a0. \u25a0 "' • '
* Policeman Reilly of the Chinatown
squad was the only witness -who,, testi
fied, jand :he was asked by Langdon:
"Why did you arrest this man, Lewis,
when he ; had a /license to run the
place?" \u25a0•\u25a0'\u25a0'.... - \u25a0\u25a0'\u25a0 .<- •' -
"I was told by- my su^eroor officer,'
Sergeant Farrell, to: make the arrest,"
replied Reilly, "because -he said the
show was too strong,"., -< , : '
•"Then] why did you not' arrest him
for conducting an immoral show? Why
did: you arrest' him for 'vagrancy? ,
"I want to explain," Langdon. went
on; '"that rthis man, Lewis,': came; to, me
and told me he desired :to start\a mu
seum in Dupont street 'and that there^
would be dancing ; exhibitions, - but he
assured* me there would be nothing of
fensive. He. said the police, were preju
diced, against him. , I told him that so
long as He carried \6n the exhibition
in a legitimate manner he had nothing
to , fear, but, " if on the" contrary, he
broke faith with me I would drive him
out of the; city. / . .
; "He. got his license, and after he was
arrested he came to me and notified me
of v the fact. In my .first, conversation
with him I told him not to "pay # for
police protection if it were asked,'be
cause I am 'determined that persons
carrying on a legitimate business shall
not be subjected to a shakedown by the
police.; Lewis. An our - second cohversa
-tion,, said. that he had not paid any-,
thing .for police protection, and it
seems to me peculiar that; he should be
arrested for .vagrancy, ' when . such ) a
chargo Is preposterous. If Lewis was
conducting an immoral exhibition he
should have been arrested for that of
fense, but not vagrancy.
.' "Talk about cleaning, out. Chinatown:
I think :the best thing to be'done would
be to clean out Sergeant Farrell and
his squad. I thought it right that the
court; should be made acquainted with'
the facts." ' - ' .--,' : . " \u25a0 % .-, \u25a0\u25a0 ' ''\u25a0:..
\u25a0;".. "I* have given specific Instructions,"
said Biggy, in reply* "that* all' immoral
exhibitions, ring, knife and other ; bunko
games In that district" must' be closed.
I will not have the! people robbed. If
the district attorney has .'\u25a0\u25a0v-a; specific
charge . to make against \u25a0 the Chinatown
squad it is his duty : to report it to me,
and- it will" be my pleasure to give, him
my ; hearty ; co-operation/ If any; one jls
paying for police protection." I - want v to
know it, -< and v- the man who accepts: It

partment.'-'.

calf, whose resignation from the navy
has been accepted by his father. Secre
tary of tha Navy Metcalf, has returned
unexpectedly from < the ' south in order
to complete his arrangements for his
retirement from \u25a0 the service. The res
ignation was' granted, ostensibly, on \u25a0 the
ground: of the young" midshipman's ill
health.' That Cupid had' not a little to
do with the young naval officer's with
drawal from the; navy is the current
belief of many of his friends and those (
of Miss Marie Butters,\ his fiancee.
Midshipman Metcalf came home on
the West Virginia.. Rear Admiral Day
ton's flagship, and one of the "big four"
which: arrived in ; San Francisco bay
yesterday. "His i, home coming was a
complete surprise, as : Midshipman \u25a0 Met
calf was not expected to return until
the cruiser Charleston, to which he was
attached', B had | completed target prac
tice. It has developed that after his
resignation was sent to Washington
Midshipman Metcalf was transferred
to; the West Virginia „. arid was thus
enabled to reach home Jsooner than had
been contemplated by those interested
in his. movements. : \u25a0\u25a0-, '..',\u25a0

SNOW AND PLOTS
HINDER DETECTIVES
OAKLAND, Feb. 21.— Deep snow and
deeper plots are keeping Detective
Hodgkins and Asslstaat District At
torney Donahue at Weaverville much
longer than was anticipated a week
ago, when the two officers were sent to
Trinity county by the Oakland and Ala
meda k county authorities to probe the
alleged machinations of lira. Isabella J.
Martin and her reputed son, "Baby
John" B. Martin, regarding the alleged
attempts with dynamite bombs on the
lives and property of prominent local
Jurists. It now seems likely, that
Hodgklns and Donahue will not. re
turn'before another week. When asked
today when they would return Captain
of. Detectives. Petersen, who is in
charge of the case, said:
You may :be quite iure It will be »t least
a week before they are throngh with the evi
dence up there. I heard from Hodjckins to
day, I bat there was nothing in his letter to
throw any new light on the case. I told him
before he went to WeATerrille to cow the
ground thoroughly before reporting, so I am
sure he Is not done with the task.
The present Intention Is to brtnj? the boy to
Oakland, bnt as to Mrs. Martin I cannot
yet say; sh* U a yery clerer woman and. we
will not bring her back unless the evidence Is
strong, enongh to make -us, believe she would
be conVlcUd. • ' -
The deep snow up north makes ontaoor in
vestigation of the case very slow.
Advices received from Weaverville
this afternoon indicate that Mrs. Martin
will ultimately be brought- to Alameda
county for. trial, but that she will not
accompany the local officers when they
return in about a week with the boy.
Sufficient evidence. It is said, has, been
unearthed, to convince- Donahue that
the woman can be successfully tried in
Oakland. • .*• \u25a0 '
When the trial is called "Baby John"
B. Martin will be the chief reliance of
the prosecution, as on his confession
and testimony the state will depend
to convict the woman.'.
