Nevus Kept From Ford Jury Heney Warned Gallagher His Life Was In Danger. OAKLAND. Cal... April 23. After spend ing the entire day running down all the possible clews leading to the detection, of the persons who dynamited William S. Schenk s home, where "Big Jim" Galla gher was living, Captain of Detectives Pe tersen gave the following statement to the press: "whatever suspicions have tieen aroused will remain secret, at least for the time being. As soon aa sometiiing definite de velops I will be glad to make the facts known. It is hard to determine what the explosion was. It may bave been dyna mite, and it may have been nitre-gly cerin. Several of the San Francisco sleuths osme over this morning and made a crit ical investigation of the wrecked house. paving particular Attention to the way the residence was shattered by the bomb. They refused to divulge the resul tof their Investigation. No arrests have been made by the Oakland police. Captain of Detectives Petersen has three men under suspicion, and if suffi cient evidence can be gathered by tomor row, arrests will probably be made. Valuable clews to the perpetrators ol the crime were gained today through the finding of a silk handkerchief in which tt is supposed the infernal machine was wrapped. ( In a search of the debris this morn ing detectives located some wire and fuse and caps, which would Indicate, according to Chief Wilson, that a bomb of some sort had been used. This morning: Mayor Mott very positively declined to cause a reward to be offered for the apprehension of the persons who committed the outrage, and said that he would bave nothing at all to do with the case. "It is a matter," said the Mayor, "for the police alone to handle, and in my judgment they are perfectly able to do It. The city will not offer any reward." Several people living in the vicinity of the Gallagher home told the police this morning about the strange actions of three men who were noticed about the premises shortly before the explosion. OFTEN WARNED CALLAGHER Heney Told Him Life In Danger. Jluef Received Threats. SAN FRANCISCO, April 23. "The prosecution will certainly make a most thorough investigation of the dastard ly attempt to kill one of the most im portant witnesses for the state in the bribery-graft cases." said Assistant District Attorney Francis J. Heney this morning to the Associated Press repre sentative. Mr. Honey refused to state whether or not he had any evidence pointing: to the perpetrators. "I am satisfied that it was not the work of a fanatic or crank," declared the Assistant District Attorney. "Neither did the attempt upon Gal laghers life surprise me. I warned him more than three months ago that if he was not careful 'they would get him,- ar,d at the time urged him to move from Oakland, telling- him his home might be blown up. Aside from this I have nothing to say at present." Mr. Heney admitted that Gallagher was the prosecution's most important witness and that his testimony fur nished the essential link connecting the bribery transactions of the Super visors with Abraham Ruef, the sup posed agent for the public service cor porations. Ruef said he regarded the attempt on Gallagher's life as a dastardly out rape and was of the opinion that it was the work of some crank. He stated that he. too, had received num erous anonymous letters denouncing him and threatening his death by vari ous ways because of his attitude In testifying against the "higher-ups." Some of them, he said, were signed with a coffin, skull and crossbones, gravestones and Hebraic and Chaldalc letters and symbols. A. A. Moore, chief counsel for Tirey L. Ford, denounced the crime and said the blowing up of Gallagher could be of no possible advantage to Ford, but would be used to his detriment. REPEAT SAME OLD STORT Ex-Snperrlsors Tell of Bribery in Ford Case. SAN FRANCISCO. April 23. Five ex Supervisors testified today in the Ford trial. All told practically the same story that they told at the former Ford trials, with the exception that they appeared to have much better memories concerning the date of their different talks with Gal lagher and concerning the denomination of the bank currency paid to them as boodle for the passing; of the trolley fran chise. By a special order of court no newspa per was allowed to be unfolded in the courtroom for fear that the jury might get sight of the headlines telling of the attempted assassination of Gallagher at Oakland last night. Ten Jurors In the Box. SAN FRANCISCO. April 23. Only two Jurors are needed to complete the panel which is to sit in Judgment upon Aba Ruef.

STAYED JAPANESE VICTORY Death Follows Operation for Heart Failure He Reorganised Army and Made Witte's Diplomat-' io Victory Possible. ST. PBTERSBt-RG. April 23.-Lieuten ant-General Linevltch. aide-de-camp to j-mperor .Nicholas and commander of the First Mancburian army, died from pneu monia this evening. He had been ill for a little over a week and on several occa sions serious symptoms of heart failure had manifested themselves. On Tuesday he had a serious attack of heart failure, from which he recovered sufficiently, but yesterday it was found necessary to per form an operation, after which the patient gradually sank. General Linevitch was appointed to the command of the Russian army in Man churia after its disastrous defeat at Mukden by the Japanese and Its retreat northward to Tie Pass in March, 1906. He reorganised the army, and threw up lines of entrenchments, which checked the further advance of the Japanese. When Togo's fleet annihilated Rojesven ky'i fleet in the Straits of Tsushima, his army was in a splendid position. It had recovered from its demoralisation, had been greatly reinforced by new ar rivals from Russia and occupied a line of entrenchments, which the Japanese could only have carried, if at all, with enormous loss. " Under these conditions the mediation of President Roosevelt brought about the Portsmouth peace conference and the pre ceding armistice. Linevltch was eager to renew hostilities, but his government held him back. He was confident of vic tory and knew that Japan had almost exhausted her power In gaining what she had gained. But the good strategic position occupied by Linevltch was simply used by Count "WItte at Portsmouth to drive a good bargain with Japan. It enabled Witte to bluff Japan out of a war Indemnity and half of Sakhalin and to return to Russia in triumph. Linevltch had no triumph except the inner consciousness of duty well done. Survivor of Morgan's Raiders. NEW YORK. April 23. With the sword he carried when a member of Morgan's Raiders during the Civil War clasped to his heart. Colonel Wil liam S.

Such is the A. B. Chase "Artistano" the first and only successful player.-grand. jiancing casuany at tne Artistano" Lrrand, 3'ou would never suspect the presence of an automatic player. Nor would you at first detect its presence in the "Artistano" Upright. In each of these remarkable instru ments is concealed, below the keyboard, where it cannot interfere with either action or acoustics, a marvelous playing: device. These instruments are no larger than ordinary grand and upright pianos, for the compact playing mechanism occu pies a space that has never before had anything to fill it. Nothing more simple was ever thought of. The ' 'Artistano' ' besides being the most human of all player-pianos, is also the most beautiful and the most con venient. We invite you to see it for yourself, to hear it and to play'it. We will make easy installment terms to you on the "Artistano"; also on the famous A. B. Chase pianos, grand and upright. , Ask for booklets. The only visible parts of the player mechanism when in use, are the pedals and the small tracker box containing the music roll and expression levers. When the piano is to be played by hand, the tracker box and pedals, by a slight mo tion of the hand, are folded underneath the keyboard, out of the way. When the music roll is to be used, a slight re verse motion draws out the tracker box and drops the pedals simultaneously. "ARTISTANO' GRAND Ready to be played by hand.
