vice president and general manager
of the Pacific Cellulose company, who
was supposed to have met death In his
own laboratory at Walnut ('reek last
week by an explosion is being sought
by Sheriff R. H. Veale, of Contra Co its
county.
Schwartz, according to District At
torney A. rt. Tinning of Martinet, now
is believed to have attempted an in
SUrance fraud involving $2(10,0110.
The body found in the ruins of the
Pacific Cellulose company'! labors
tory at Walnut Creek after the terrific
explosion, has been identified as that
of Joseph Rodrigues, teoluse labaee
known as "I'ortygee JOS" Who hSl
been missing from Walnut Orsek,
In spite of the sensational develop
mcnls Mrs. Schwartz continued firm
In her belief that the body found in
the explosion wreckage was that ol
her husband. The belief is shared by
the Schwartz family physician. Dr. Al
fred II. Kuedy, and II. .1. KleinjUUg,
president of the cellulose company.
Mrs. Schwartz believed her husband

the supposed victim's possession and
