How It Finally Passed as to the Cali- fornin Harbor. * The conferees on the river and harbor bill were in session yesterday and reach- ed an agreement satisfactory to all con- cerned, including Senator White, late in the afternoon. The House conferees agreed to recede from their opposition to Senate amendments for harbocs at Santa Monica ard San Pedro, provided the bill should be amended so as to render unavailable the appropriation for the inner harbor at Wilmington on San Pedro bey, in case the commissioners provided for should de- cide upon San Pedro as the mest available place for an outer harbor. This proposi- ticn was accepted, and an amendment was made to the SanPedro item to the effect that ro contracts should be entered into for the inner harbor at Wilmirgton until the commissioners should report and not at all in case they should decide in favor of an outer harbor at that place. The House conferees yielded their cc1 tention that the commisstoners should be named in the bill and agreed to the addition of the following proviso as an addition to the Santa Monica item: “Provided, however, that if the board hereby constituted, as in this section pro- vided, shall determine in favor of the con- struction of a breakwater at Port Los Angeles, no expenditure of any part of the money hereby apprcpriated shall be made, nor shall any contract for the con- struction of such breakwater be entered into until the Southern Pacifle Company, or the owner or owners thereof, shall exe- cute an agreement and file the same with the Secretary of War, that any railroad company or any corporation engaged in the business of transportation may share in thg use of the pier now constructed at Port Los Angeles and the approaches and tracks leading thereto situate westerly of the easterly entrance to the Santa Monica tunnel upon such just and equitable terms as may be agreed upon between the par- ties, and if they ‘ail to agree, then to be determineg by the Secretary of War; and before expenditure of the money hereby “Sppropriated is made for the con- struction of a breakwater at Port Los Angeles, said Southern Pacific Company, or the owner of the track and approaches leading to said pier, shall execute an agree- ment and file the same with the Secretary of War, that any railroad or trarsportation ccmpany or corporation desirirg to con- struct a wharf or pier in Santa Monica bay may, for the purpose of approaching such wharf or pier, and for the purpose of constructing and operating the same, cross the track or tracks, approaches and right ef way now used by the Southern Pacific Company under such regulations as may be prescribed by the Secretary of War, and upon the payment of such com- pensation as that officer may find to be reasonable; “Provided, further, that tm event said harbor fs located at Port Los Angeles, no greater royalty on the rock used for the construction of the breakwater than twelve and a half cents a cubic yard shall be charged; and the Southern Pacific Com- pany shall charge no more than one-half cent a ton mile for freight on rock trans- ported over its road.” . The House also yielded the provision for @ survey of the Wilmington harbor with a view of increasing its depth. The agree- ment was reached just in time to permit Senator Frye to present the conference re- port to the Ssnate and have it accepted before adjournment. FIRST WEEK OF THE TRIAL Progress Made in the Fight Over the Holt Will Each Side Has Won One Skirmish— Likely Some ‘Time. to Last for Yesterday afternoon when Col. Hosmer had completed his testimony the Holt will case adjourned over till Monday morning. A full week has now been consumed In taking testimony, and at the rate the case has progressed no one would be in the least surprised if it should run along for the next two weeks. Every effort has been made, however, to keep out all testimony that is not absolutely germane to the points at issue, and while there have al- ready been a number of lively tilts be- tween the lawyers, they developed only over matters that are extremely important. The case has attracted crowds of spe: tators every day, a ncticeable feature be- ing the large attendarce of members of the bar, who are attracted by the interesting legal points which ccme up. regularly every few minutes. Again and again the statement has been made in court that for many of these points there are no prece- dents in the books, and that they are traversing new territory all the time. Will cases alweys have a deep interest for the public generally, but it would seem as theugh there never Was a case that was strrounded by so ny mysterious fea- tures as this. Every one is anxious to know whether any solution is to be offered for the most unusual of these, noticeably the questicn as where the will was during the time following Judge Holt’s death, and how it finally came into tke office of the register of wills. Each day of the trial has Ceveloped something new, and even the character of the witnes: on both sides has had its share in attracting attention to the case. The soc‘al and official position eccupied by Judge Holt, of course, brought him into intimate connection with peopie of prominence a generation ago, and many of those who are still living have bee brought into the case to give their opin- ions as to the genuineness or fraudulency of the alleged will. So far there have been no expert W! 3és on the stand, but when that stage of the trial is reached there is no telling how long it may continue. Up to the present time the caveatees have con- fined themselves to testimony in suppo: or the will, and the caveators have attack- ed it on the ground of forgery, claiming that the handwriting can be proved fraud: utent, while the character and style of th contents are such as could never have been produced by a man of Judge Holt’s literary and legal attainments. Sequence of the Trial. Some surprise las been expressed by those who have rot followed the prelimi- naries of the case at the order which has been pursted in the trial. Ordinarily the caveators of a will are made the plaintiffs and the cavectees the defendants, but this is an unusual case in every way. The fact that the czveatees,or those who are named as the beneficisries in the document whose validity is in question, submitted their prima facie case firat was the result of the judge's Gecision that they should garded as the plaintiffs. This was of the length of time which elaps the death of Judge Holt Lefore the apr ance of the will. The heirs-at-law had se- cured letters of administration and some 30,000 bad been distributed among them before the burnt and frayed document which purports to be the | will and testament of the late Judge into the register’s office as if from the clouds. In framing the issues, consequent- ly, the eaveatees were made the plaintiffs, objecting to any further distribution, etc. In the trial so far each side has won one skirmish. The caveatees, after a warm contest, secured the admission of the will in eviderce. When they had made out a prima f:cie case by the Identification of the handwriting they closed, and whatever additional evidence they may have in sup- port of the validity of the document will be submitted in Tebuttsl. The caveators scored when Judge Bradley decided that evidence based on the literary value of the contents of the will was competent. This gives the Feirs-at-law an excellent opening by whict to introduce testimony showing that Judge Holt would in all probability never Fave written such a paper. It dropped — MEDICAL COUNTERFEITERS, An Investigation Which Led to the Arrest of the Guilty Parties. A combination formed for the purpose of counterfeiting the remedies made by the Munyon Homeopathic Remedy Company has at last been unearthed by Prof. Mun- yon, For more than a year he has been sat- isfied that his goods were being juggled with ir some fraudulent manner. Sus- pected employes were discharged, and e ery measure taken to detect the culprits, but it was not until the last month that he was able to lay his hands upon the persons whom he charges with being the chief com- spirators, These proved to be a former employe and a man who has been working for more than a year in conjunction with dishonest employes of the Munyon Com- pany. They are now in prison. Goods, labels and material were surreptitiously taken from the Munyon laboratory, pellets were bought by the barrel, a little alcohol Was poured upon them, and they were placed upon the market as the genuine Munyon remedies. “Fortunately, the Mun- yon Company had taken precaution to have the metal cap which covers their vials stamped with the words ‘Munyon’s Ho- meopathic Remedies.” This the counter- feiters could not imitate, on account of the great expense and the unwillingness of honest mechanics to make a counterfeit die. As soon as the fraud was discovered the Munyon Company dispatched repre- sentatives throughout the country and gathered in all the spurious goods. One of the men arrested claims that he was induced to go into the business by finding out how rapidly the Munyon rem- edies sold. It is claimed that one dealer bought over $7,000 worth of these imitation goods, ———— RECEIVED BY THE CZAR, The American Ambassador and the Special Envoys, The czar yesterday at Moscow received in private audience the United States ambas- sador, Mr. Breckinridge, and then received the special envoys of the United States sent to represent the government of the United States at the coronation together. These included Gen. A. McD. McCook and his brother, Aid-de-Camp Scriven,Com- mander Bronson and Major J. W. Patzki of the special embassy and Rear Admiral T. O. Selfridge, in command of the Mediter- ranean squadron, who brought his flagship, the Minneapolis, to Cronstadt to attend the coronation as the naval envoy of the Unit- ed States. Mr. Breckinridge, H. H. Peirce and the other civil sepresentatives wore for the first time at the Russian court the full civil dress prescribed for those who are not al- lewed to wear the official uniform. The American ambassador, the special ervoys and their staff last night attended a reception given by the Russian foreign minister, Prince Lobonoff-Rostovsky. Next week Mr. Breckinridge will give a dinner to distinguished American visitors to the coronation, and later, probably on June 3, will give a reception, inviting the Russian princes and foreign princes attendant upon the coronation and the foreign ambassadors and about a thousand others. The Duke of Connaught, representing Queen Victoria at the coronation festivities, has presented to the caarina the grand cross of the Victorian Order, which has been newly founded by Queen Victoria, and also an ornamental vase of the Armada pattern, The special embassies .to the coronation of France, Spain, Japan and Corea were also received in audience by the czar and czarina in the great palace of the Krem- In yesterday. A gilded six-horse coach and several four-horse carriages were sent to fetch each embassy and suite: Each embassy was escorted by six mount- ed grooms and was received by guards of honor at the Kremlin, where they were conducted with great ceremony to the Alexander salon and thence to the Eka- terina hall, where they were received in audience, a J t fe +300 1-lb. loaves « to the barrel. | All Proclaim It “The Queen.” The superidt quality and matchless eXcellence of— has placed it on the topmost wave of success.

The benefit to be given at Allen's Grand Opera House next Wednesday night for the charity fund of the Legion of Loyal Women promises to be a notable event. both by Washington authors, will be present- ed, and as the rehearsals are being conduct- ed by Mr.Wm. Boag, late of Wm. H. Crane's company, also a Washingtonian, it may be assumed that they will be well done. The first is a one-act comedietta by Willard Holcomb, entitled “Her Last Rehearsal,” and in this Mr. Boag will have a character part that will enable nim to appear to ex- cellent advantage. The other play is a comedy called “A Proposal by Proxy,” Fred F. Schrader. Mr. Holcomb long been known as the dra- matic and musical critic of the Post, and has written several skits which have been quite suecessful. He is also known as a writer of dainty verse, most of it with a delicate touch of humor, though some of his efforts have been broadly comic, as in the case of “Since Katie Got Struck on the Stage,” which has been sung from one end of the country to the other. Mr. Holcomb j commenced his career as a writer when he was at Butchel College, in Ohio, whence he was graduated in ‘89.’ Then he conduct- ed the college paper and wrote many neat bagms. His taste for the drama was mani- feSted then, too, for he belonged to the col- dramatic club, and is sald to have been a good amateur. He also evinced his taste for journalistic work early as the correspondent of the Akron Sunday Ga- zette. On graduation he commenced the study of law in Binghamton, N. Y., but soon deserted Blackstone for going ‘upon the Republican of that city as court re- porter, end subsequently holding the posi- tion of exchange and telegraph editor. He then became editor of a little weekly paper, and subsequently, in ’92, came to this city to the Post, where he has been ever since. Frederick F. Schrader is the author of half a dozen plays which have been pro- duced by . professional companies. At eighteen years of age he wrote “The Man From Texas,” which has been produced in all paris of the United States. His “Check- mate” scored an instantaneous hit, but was withdrawn, owing to a disagreement be- tween the parties for whom it was writ- ten. His adaptatiop ef “The Gascon,” a comic opera by Suppe, scored a hit in’ San Francisco, and tlat of “Nancy at the French Ball,” with #anny Rice in the lead- ing role, will shorfly enter upon its third Professional season. ‘Dye scenarium of a new, comedy for this popular actress by the author has been“approved by Miss Rice and her manager. Negotiations are also pending for an early production of his Washington play, “In Official Society.” Mr. Schrader was born in 1857, and has been in journalisny sifce 1873 In 1884 he temporarily abandq@ied the newspaper busi- ness to become the manager of a theater in Missouri, and fa Tse became manager of Pope's Theater, §t. Louis. That popular place of amusement ‘passing out of the hands of Mr. Pope, -he accepted the posi- tion of secretary of the board of trade of St. Joseph, Mo., and in 1891 returned to St. Louis and thence came to Washington as one of the correspondents of the Globe- Democrat. Since January, 1804, he has been one of the political reporters attached to the Post staff. ‘A Proposal by Proxy” is a refined com- edy, the central idea of which is one of the most unique inspirations that has ever been exploited in a play. The action turns upon the determination of a blase New Yorker, a second Van Bibber, to carry out another man's program, and to propose for the hand of a lady whom he has never met. The plot develops into a pretty love story, and the piece ends almost as strange- ly as it begins. SS Rev. F. J. Stanley, D. D., L. H.
