Wolff's features were hardly recognisable from mutilation. Huge deep gashes were hacked on both aides of his skull and on his f aoe the flesh In a number of places waa laid bare to the bone. On the right side the jawbone was cut through, the cheek ripped open and the tongue half severed from Its roots. About this room and the little store- OF STORE OF NATHAN WOLFF, SHOWING HOW PAWNBROKER WAS MURDERED. room immediately in the rear were found two coats. Appearances indicated that they had been hastily thrown where they were found. One was a black over coat and the other was a light colored overcoat. One of the coats contained a handkerchief and the theory of the police Is that these coats were worn by the robbers and thrown aside by them. Leaning against the wall within easy reach of the body was' a modern large calibre rifle.' Its stock and grip were blood spattered. A tag was attached to It showing that - It was part of the stock. Used Rifle as Club. The gun was not loaded and it appeared as if it had been used as a club in the work of' butchery. Placed under Wolff's head was a piece of oilcloth, evi dently placed there before the mutilation had begun, for the purpose of catching the blood. Besides the wounds on the head there was a gash cut on one of the dead man's hands.. His pockets had been rifled. That the robbers were in haste is shown by the fact that Wolff's diamond stud, which he wore In his shirt-front, was found un disturbed. Police Recelv Xews. The news of the murder was received at the police station at a time when Captain Baty, the head of the detective bureau, and all of his assistants except one were out. Detective John Price, being the only plain clothes man on hand, was dispatched to the scene by Captain Slover -Immediately. Detective Price was Joined in a few moments by Patrolmen Hyde and Burke. Assisted by these men Detective Price found the bloody collar and tie, a discharged revolver shell, with which Wolff had been shot, and the other evidence on which the police are now working. Captain Baty reached the scene within - a short time, having been recalled from another case. Big Bundle of Booty". Shortly after the arrival of the police a crowd gathered In front of the store and grew to such proportions that for a few moments the street was blockaded, and officers ' had to be ordered out to disperse the curiosity-seekers. After, the arrival of the Coroner and the remains had been taken away the store was turned over to Mr. Rhelnhart, the dead man's brother-in-law, who at tempted to make an inventory of the goods taken.

Nlghtwatchman Robinson discovered the body shortly after 9 o'clock; Mr. Robinson's beat extends from the river ts Fourth and from Morrison to Tbylor. "At 6:48 o'clock, as I passed the store," said Robinson, "I tried the door and was surprised to find ft locked and toe light that Wolff .usually left burning,, extin guished. But I did not attach any im portance to It. owing to the fact that It was still daylight.

"I hastened back to the store, which I reached at 8:60 o'clock. Finding the door unlocked I entered and turned on the lights to discover the floor covered with blood stains. Immediately follow ing me into the store came Mrs. Wolff and eight-year-old daughter, who had come from their home to learn the rea son for Wolffs delayed homecoming. In ducing Mrs. Wolff to remain in the front part of the store. I made a further In vestigation and found the mangled body of Wolff lying In a rear room. I then telephoned the police and notified Mrs. Wolff's brother." J. F. Relnhart, brother-in-law of . the dead man, was at hla residence when no tified of the murder. Discussing Wolff's habits, he said: Got Probably $1800. "Mr. Wolff, during the 20 years that I have known him, was very regular In closing his place of business at 8 o'clock and returning home. He kept all of hia valuable Jewelry, including diamonds. In the big safe, which waa locked. The booty secured by the robbers must have con sisted of a cheaper grade of Jewelry and unredeemed pledges to the probable value of JloOO. Two money drawers and the cash box In the 'pledge' safe were robbed of about $300. It will be impossible for ma to definitely estimate the amount of the stolen goods and money before tomorrow, when I can make a thorough examina tion," Iilved Here Many Years. Mr. Wolff was one of the old-time pawnbrokers of this city, having been en gaged in the business for about 25 years. He formerly had a store on North Third street, but had been located on First near Morrison for the last 15 years. He waa about 45 years of age and leaves a wife and four children. He resided at 666 Kear ney street. RECALLS THE O'SHEA CASK Two Thugs Hanged for Similar Crime In 18-79. The murder of Nathan Wolff last night recalls the attempt made on the life of William O'Shea, father of James B. and John F. O'Shea, of this city, in hia loan office on First street. In the Spring of 1879, bj' two thugs named Brown and Johnson. The robbers failed to obtain their booty.

"About three years ago I was troubled with my hair falling out at an alarming rate. "A friend of mine Induced me to try a bottle of New bro's Herpicide, which I did, and it did me so much .good that I have used it ever since. I can gladly say it has made my hair grow very thick and stopped it from fall ing out. It certainly has no equal and I gladly recom mend it." , (Signed) ANNA M. BRODE. A Doctor's Report.

In twenty-five per cent of the cases of baldness, a neglected dandruff can be considered as its immediate exciting cause or associate ed condition. Tour Herpicide will, in the vast majority of cases, cure and prevent the continuation of dandruff. It is an elegant and ideal hair dressing." (Signed) V. T. McGILLCUDDT, M. D.

After being interrupted in Q'Shea's of fice, the "two men, accompanied . by a third man named Schwarts, fled through John Cran's dry goods store and ran to. Third and Morrison streets, where Brown and Johnson took possession of a de livery wagon and started to drive west on Morrison street. Just then Consta ble Dan Bprague came upon the scene and opened Are on them. The fleeing men returned the Are and one of their bullets killed young- Joseph. Both high waymen escaped for the time being. Schwartz later gave himself up and was sentenced to life imprisonment. He died in the Salem Penitentiary some years Ikter from consumption, Brown was cap tured near Rainier and shortly after that Johnson was taken into custody at Los Angeles and brought back to Portland by Detective Henry Hudson. Both Brown and Johnson were hanged in the yard of the Multnomah County Jail. The Injuries sustained by OShoa at the hands of Brown and Johnson, while not fatal at the time, are believed to have hastened his death several years later. BRIDAL VEIL ROBBERS SOUGHT Men Who Ransacked Postoffice Are Thought to Be In Portland. TJp to a late hour last night the two robbers who ransacked the postoffice at Bridal Veil and went from there to Troutdale on a handcar had not been found, although nearly the entire force at the Sheriff's office was out scouring- the country. It is now believed that these men are not those who stole the boat at Menominee, and who escaped after being arrested and con fined In an apple house. Early yesterday morning Watchman Baum, employed by the. Bridal Veil Lumber Company, discovered two men robbing the postoffice, which is in the same building with the Aldrlch & Linnett store. From what can be learned of subsequent happenings, Baum fired his revolver into the air to scare the robbers. They took a hasty departure, obtained a handcar from the Bridal Veil section house, and sped off down the O. R. & N. track toward Portland. Flagman McCarthy, at Corbett, had been notified to be on the watch for the two men, according to accounts given here. He was stationed at a point a quarter of a mile east of the tunnel, which lies between Bridal Veil and Corbett. Instead of having a pile . of ties across the track to ditch the robbers, or an open switch, there was nothing but the red flag, which the robbers ignored. A number of section hands were at work inside the tunnel, and. although the robbers flew past the signal, they stopped when they saw the ' lights, ditched the car, and made a detour until they came upon another car belonging to the work men. McCarthy is said to have fired a shot as the robbers passed, and to have received several In return. Jumping on the handcar of the work men, the hold-up men made their way to Troutdale, where they left the car, and evidently came on to Portland on the train or on an electric car. The robbers obtained only S6 from the store, and nothing from the post office, as far as can be learned, as they were frightened away before they had completed their work. There Is no means of escape from Bridal Veil ex cept to take, the railroad, or to cross the river in a boat, so that had quick and proper action been taken it is thought that the thieves could have been captured. Walter Linnett, one of the members of the Bridal Veil firm, is the man who caused the police a fruitless search for two days for a roll of bills con taining $600. which was lost in this city on April 28. Mr. Linnett drew Look Well Your doctor will tell you why Ayer's Hair Vigor so promptly checks fall' ing hair. Ask Aim all about it.

As he stepped from the elevator he placed his hand in his pocket and found that he had either dropped the money or had been the victim of a pickpocket during his walk from the bank, a distance of not more than 60 yards. The money was not recovered.' STEEL'S FRIENDS ACTIVE Bring Pressure to Bear on District Attorney Manning. That pressure is being brought to bear by friends of George A, Steel, Stats Treasurer, to prevent his Indictment on charges growing out of misuse of state funds by the Title Guarantee & TruBt Company became known yesterday. That District Attorney Manning has been given assurance of receiving a certain Republican faction's vote If he will over look Steel's offense Is learned from an authoritative source, and that he has been given to understand 'this support will be withdrawn In event of Steel's in dictment is also alleged , by one who ought to know. While Mr. Manning refused to discuss that phase of the case yesterday, he re iterated his announcement of an inten tion to return an information against the State Treasurer at as early a date as Steel's health would seem to admit of such action.
