As fast as steam will carry him young Vanderbilt will journey to New York, where the will of his dead father will be opened.

Alfred G. Vanderbilt also had a love affair, which, as near as can be judged from ‘appearances, did not suit thé elder Vanderbilt in all particulars. The young woman in the case is Miss Elsie French, daughter of the late Francis Osmond French, who made a large fortune in the hotel business in New York. ung Van derbilt, who Is little more than twenty one years of age, met and fell in love with Miss French during his college career a Yale. He wanted to marry her immedi- ately after taking his degree, but father objected on account of his extreme youth and persuaded him to delay his marriage until after his tour around the globe.

PHELAN ASKS GRAND JURY TO INVESTIGATE REFERS HOSPITAL AFFAIRS TO TEAT BODY. g | Charges Board of Supervisors With Jobbery and Makes Other Seri- ous Allegations. In a letter to the Grand Jury apropos of the deplorable City and Count house, Mayor Phel i rect charges of jobbery against the Board of Supervisors, and, inference, made accusations of even a more serious nature, The contractors have dally urged some plan whereby their claims might be paid and fresh supplies provided the starving inmates of the county’s medical institu- tion. Chairman Perrault of the Finance Committee w willing to pay their back claims, but declined to allow any expendi- ture in excess of the one-twelfth act, or that would result in a deficit in any of the funds over which he exercised juris- | diction. | With a mob of hungry contractors and another of hungry patients to hear from each day, the matter became unpleasant, to say the least, and yesterday the Mayor unloaded it on the Grand Jury in the fol- lowing letter: To the Honorable, the Grand Jury of the v and County of San Francisco—Gentle- : 1 desire, in‘pursuance of my duty under | the consolidation act, to call your attention to pital and the pest- yesterday made the mismanageme of the €ity and County | Hospital, “by which deflcits have been created | in its funds, causing suffering to the patients and injury to the reputation In the fiscal year of 189 propriated for the hospita $5000 for re- pairs.

B Al n Four big steamers came in through the fog that hung over the Golden Gate yes- terday. They were the Olympia that comes here to be used as a transport, the Toyo Kisen Kaisha's America Maru, the overdue mall steamer City of Peking and the anxiously expected Pennsylvania, with the Washington troops aboard. The Peking and Pennsylvania met the heavy weather off the Japanese coast that de- layed the Solace. The first day out of Yokohama the Peking made 292 knots. The next day a storm was raging and only 160 knots were made. The third day it was blowing a hurricane and the Peking made %0 knots. The fourth day she made 100 knots and the fifth 134 knots. On the sixth day the steamer had run out of the storm and after that she had fair weather until within two days of San Francisco, when a strong head wind and heavy sea were encountered. The officers of the America Maru had a great laugh at the expense of the Peking when that vessel docked. The America Maru had to put back to Yokohama be- se of a fire in her coal bunkers.

The pilot boat was hove to, reefing the mainsail, when the Russ came along, bound for Olympia, and her Spans ker boom got foul of the Gracie's fore- topmast stay and carried away the fore and main topmasthead. The Russ was not damaged. John Lindholm, a stevedore living at 860 Howard street, fell down the hold of the bark Harvest yesterday and fractured his skull. He was taken to the Harbor 1os- pital, but as the appliances for trepanning are not kept there he had to be sent out to the Recelving Hospital to be operated upon. He is in a very critical condition.

Recommends the Establishment in China of Bureaus Where Infor- mation Can Be Obtained. Among the distingu brought in on the s hed passengers eamer Peking yester- day was Gustave Nelderlein, United | States Commercial Commissioner to the | Orient. Mr. Neiderlein is connected with Philadelphia Museum of Commel which fnstitution sent him out to the East ome time ago to study and report on the commercial conditions of those far-away countries : Commissioner Nelderlein made an ex- tensive tour through the Orfent, going well into the interior of both China_and Japan, and is now on his way back to Philadelphia to give the museum the ben- efit of his researches. When last evening at_the Palace Hotel, where he Is staying, Mr. Nelde lein sald: “Yes, I have been spendi some time in the Orient and am on mj way back to tell th ho sent me what I think will be of the greatest benefit to the commerce of this country with these great nations that rest on the under side of the world. While I was in the Orient I made several trips well into the interior to study the topography of the country with the view of ascertaining the rela- tive commercial value of the different great waterways. What the result of these trips we contained in my re- port and is altogether too long to make | any mention of now. Suffice to say I | found both China and Japan, particularly | China, Intersected with navigable streams | which will be of immense ser’ in help- ing the development of the cities and vil- lages that lle inland away from the coast. | *“When I get home I shall strongly | recommend the establishment of several | bureaus of commercial information at different points throughout China and Japan where business can be transacted and where information of every sort of a commercial enterprise in which the United States are interested can be read- obtained. “The Chinese and Japanese are intelll- | gent, quick and industrious people, who are more than willing to advance as rap- | 1dly as possible in a commercial way. | Their greatest difficulty, however, is to ascertain what really is on the market in this country and the cost of machinery, bridges, railways, and, In fact, everything that tends toward the onward progress of a nation. This knowledge these bureaus of information would be able to supply. “I would establish one at Hongkong to | cover the southern territory, and one at Shanghai, which would take care of the north. These would be the two principal _ bureaus, but other and smaller ones could be opened where they would do the most . good .as the occasfon for them _presents f{t- self. Another thing which would be of great benefit to this country, and which would prove of immense value in the transaction of business, would be the es- tablishment of an American bank. We have none in the Orient at present, and :.llm want of one is very badly felt in- ced Mr. Neiderlein will remain in the city but a short while, as his intention 1s to dfim" as soon as possible for Philadel- phia. —_—————— Pansles and husks—Thought and work produce wondrous results.
