Sheriff Alleges Suspicious
' Actions on Part of
Printer Ponnay.
(United Prca Letwd W1t.t
Loa Anueles, May 26. With the cap
turc of the much wanted Ben Elliott at
Redondo and his absolute elimination
from the Poltera myfctery, the quest to
day changed from a man hunt to a. cold
Diooaed pICKing or a man or men irom
the Griffith park locality to be put
through the most rigid examination
known to police.
i With this In view. Sheriff Hammcl
and others from the sheriffs office left
early this morning for the scene of the
tragedy. t, .
l The various examlatlons to which
young Elliott was bubjected after his
arrest convincea eveiyone who ma uo
active In the search that the 18-year-old
boy frankly confessed He was the robber
of Tropico and Glendale stores that
have been pillaged during ine lasi six
week. He also admitted that he left
ths camp near Tropico the morning
after the child murder Is supposed to
have been committed. He started for
Redondo, he says, about 4 o clock, r rom
his statements, given In a straight
forward manner. It weuld eeem he had
not been in the part of the valley
where the"flme was committed.
The sheriff this morning said he was
not entirely through with his examina
tion of Henry V. Ponnay. the Los
Angeles printer, who discovered the
missing lunch box of the dead school
girl and a few playthings she had with
her.
Joseph Dyson, a Griffith park em
ploye, declares Ponnay's actions were
suspicious, and If not suspicious, un
canny. "When Ponn-iy renched here Xonday
afternoon," Dyson says, "he came up
to us directly and said without hesita
tion: " T have a premonition I am going to
And something important.'
"Ponnay went north." assert Pysoti,
"and very shortly came back with the
missing articles. Ae he showed them to
us, he said:
"'Look behind the brick house and
youH find a little tliirt ' "
The second trophry was not fulfilled,

FOUND Oil ROCKS
Unidentified Victim of Rash
ness or Murder Washed
Up Near Cliff House.
(United Press Leased Wtre.l
"San Francisco, May 26. The body of
a woman found In the ocean near the
Cliff House today was Identified this
afternoon as that of Mrs. Delia Hlnes
of No. 884 Sixty-first street, Oakland.
San Francisco. Mav 2. Washed upon
the rocks near the new Cliff house by
the Incoming tide, the body of a well
dressed, comely woman was found, early
today by Junius Schmidt, a night
watchman. TKe woman apparently was
about 38 years of age. The body had
oeen in me water but a short time.
The police believe the woman was
murdered and the body thrown Into the
bay. On this theory. Detectives Black
and De La Ouerra have been detailed
upon the case. They will be reinforced
by half a dosen other operatives from
the police department.
The woman's hands were small and
well kept and her features gave every
evidence of refinement Her hair was
dark brown, slightly threaded with
gray, ghe was five feet, five Inches in
height and weighed about -120 pounds.
About her neck was hung a scanula
of the Roman Catholic faith, and two
medals or the Blessed Virgin.
The short time that the hodv had
been washed about the waves has led
the police to believe that the crime was
committed at a late hour last night.
The fact that a strong current from the
Marin county side of the bav washes
over the rocks where the bodv was
found, frequently carrying driftwood
and other debris, adds weight to a the
ory that the body was thrown Into the
water near Sausallto or another trans
bay town.
The only clew that offers
Identification Is the murk of' the Rn.

R RAILROAD
Judge Cleland Rules Against
Baldwin Sheept and
Land Company.
In a decision rendered by Judge Cle
land today In the case of the Baldwin
Sheep & Land company against the Co
lumbia Southern Railroad company to
recover $446.60 for an alleged overcharge
on a shipment of sheep from Shaniko to
Rawlins, Wyo.. the court held that the
shipper must show that the freight
rate claimed by the shipper is not in
violation of the interstate commerce tariffs.
The comnlalnt of the Baldwin Sheen
& Land company sets forth that the
company shipped 14,000 sheep from
Shaniko to Rawlins in June, 1905, and
that the company's agent at Shaniko
quoted a rate of $116 per can but that
before the shipment was concluded, the
railroad company notified the plaintiff
that the quoted rate was too low and
that the railroad company would not
abide by It. The shipper paid the
higher rate demanded bv the railroad
company, which amounted to $446 more
than would have been paid under the
rate quoted by the Shaniko agent.
Suit was Instituted to recover the
sum of $446, and was defended by the
company on the ground that the low
rate quoted was in violation of the
freight tariffs of the company as filed
with the Interstate commerce commission.
Judge Cleland held that it was in
cumbent upon the shipper to show that
tne rate quoted by the local agent or
the company was the legal rate allowed
by the interstate commerce commission.
and that because of Its failure to make
such showing, It could not recover.

INSTANT RELIEF FROM
DREAD CATARRH
Why don't you get rid of that nastv.
humiliating disease catarrh?
you can do It if you really want to. -.
But you canH cure catarrh In a few
days, that's an utter impossibility, be
cause there Is no remedy known that
will kill the catarrh germs in that short
time.
But you can cure catarrh if von will
have a little patience and breathe Iq
Hyomel (pronounced Hlgh-o-me) three
or four times a day.
Hyomel cures catarrh by killing the
germs and it kills the germs because it
gets where the germs are.
Hyomel is a powerful antiseptic and
germ killing air; it is made from the
fluid extracted from the eucalyptus
trees of Australia where catarrh is un
known. It gives relief instantly, stops hawk
ing in a few days and is guaranteed by
Woodard, Clarke A Co., to cure catarrh,
asthsna, croup and bronchitis or money
back. A complete outfit, including in
haler, costs $1.00, and extra bottles of
Hyomel cost $0 cents.
"Hyomel certainly saved my life ana
I accord it the credit which it deserves
and merits. There Is nothing too strong
for me to say regarding Hyomel." Mrs.

Hearing of evidence for the govern
ment In its caae aealnst William Han
ley, charged with Illegal fencing of pub
lic lands in Harney county, is nearlng
a close. Testimony given this morning
went toward sustaining tbe govern
ment's contention that lands have been
barred against entrance by private in
dlvluVuals, working for their own bene
fit The burden of protlng that Han
ley la ths man directly responsible seems
still to rest with the government.
At the beginning of the morning ses
slon Edward Zimmerman, one of the
jurors sitting on the case, presented to
the court a telegram announcing that
his mother, living at Salem, was dying
and asking on this account to be freed
from further Jury service that he might
go to her bedside. With, tbe consent
of counsel both for the government and
the defense the exouse was granted. The
verdict will therefore be returned by
the 11 renwlnlng jurors.

a witness ror the defense, was intro
duced out of turn, be having found It
necessary to return to his family. Dur

view of the lands had left with him the
impression that the fences were in
