covered Ids perfidy.
At hi3 death his estate, valued nt

been ignorant of the double life ho
was living.
Mr. Schoenberger met the handsome
widow in 1886. Sho affirms that ho
represented himself to her as a widow
er and asked her to marry him. She
believed him and married him and
they lived happily for four1 years at
various places in this city and Brook

SUED FOR BOYCOTTING
A JVc iv Phase of tlic Printers
Strike in Sacramento.
Spoclal to The Astohtax I
Sacramekto, Oct. 22. The trouble
over tho typographical difficulties in
the Bee- office took on a now phaso to
day, when the proprietors of tho Bee
commenced suit against several hun
dred parties, members of tho Feder
ated Trades and Typographical Union,
whom they charge with unlawfully
coDspiringto injure the business of
the paper by trying to boycott mer
chants who dared to advertise in it or
to subscribe for it.
The proprietors say they have no
fault to find with the strikers so long
as they don't attempt io bull-dozo and
intimidate their patrons, and tho latter
they will not submit to.
Probably for the first time this
question of the right to boycott will
come up before the California courts
and the outcome will be looked for
ward to with much interest.

Mnrter of Enoch Crosby
Said to Be in Astoria.
TWO MEN ABE NOW IN PRISON.
It Is Believed That They Are Inno

Will Be Taken.
Special by The United ri:ess.l
Tacoma, Oct. 22. New develop
ments in the Enoch Crosby murder
case now tend to show that Joe Hilde
brand, under arrest at Astoria, Or.,
is the real murderer of young Crosby.
The general impression i3 that this
will result in tho release of Hoyt aud
Stowe, now serving sentences at
"Walla "Walla for the crime.
The above dispatch came too late
last night to see Chief of Police Barry,
who, it is reported,, has done some
work on the case, but error has evi
dently been made in regard to the
name of the suspected party, as there
is no one in the county jail booked
under tho name of Hildebrand. About
six weeks ago five men, namely: Doc,
Bute and Fred Whitfield, wero ar
rested for robbing tho cabins of locat
ors in the Nchalcm valley and along
the Young's and Lewis and Clark riv
ers. At that time it was intimated
that one of the quintette was suspected
of knowing something about tho mur
der of Crosby at Tacoma, but nothing
developed in regard to tho promised
disclosures.
It is probable that now develop
ments have como to light Chief Bar
ry returned yesterday from a trip to
the sound, and tho Orcgonian says:
Chief of Police Barry of Astoria lias
beeu in Tacoma ior tho past two days
looking into tho circumstances surround
ing the murder of young Euoch Crosby
about ayearaco. Ho asked if a tran
script had over been made from the ste
nographer's notes in the case of Hoyt
and Stowe. He also mentioned having
the Whitfields in custody, and hinted
that ho thonsht thev might be tho mur
derers of Crosby. Ho was not inclined to
talk very freely about the matter. Chief
of Poiico Dillon is of tho opinion that
Hoyt and Stowe are innocent men, un
justly connneu, and thinks tuey are
rushed to tho penitentiary for the 2,500
reward offered for tho conviction of
somebody. Beed nnd Smaller, tho at
torneys, have been retained by beliovcrs
in tho innocenco of Hoyt and Sfowo, and
will carry tho case to tho supremo court

NO REASON GIVEN.
Nine Telegraph Operators in
Chicago Discharged.
Special to The Astobiax.
Chicago, Oct 22. There is much
excitement among tho Western Union
telegraph operators. Since Saturday
last nine men have been discharged, it
is alleged, without being given any
reason for their dismissal. All of
them, it is said, are members of the
Brotherhood of Telegraphers, and
they believe that it is on this account
that their Eervices.were no longer de
sired.
Charles S. Andress, publisher of the
Telegrapher, was one of those dis
missed, and was informed, ho says,
when he demanded a reason for his
discharge, that they had no reason to
give.
His paper, in its last issue, published
a notice of an open meeting to be held

wrestling, with honors about even.

the neck, sent Gleason against the
scenes. Both men wero groggy, and
in an effort to dodge, Gleason fell
heavily in his corner, with Gannon
standing over him ready to deliver a
knock-out blow when he arose jAt
