4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1900. CLARK’S FRIENDS POSE AS POLITICAL PURISTS Corbett, Wellcome and Day Deny All Evidence Connecting Them With Bribery. WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.—Senator Clark | wo-day continued and completed his testi- mony before the Senate Committee on Blections, but his testimony did not at-| tract as much attention as that of other witnesses who were heard during the day. | The other witnesses were Frank Corbett | of Butte, recalied; E. C. Day, who was the Cl leader on the floor of the Mon- tana House of Representatives, and John B. Wellcome, who was a general manager for Clark. Wellcome did not take the stand un late and his examination in chief was not completed when the com- mittee adjourned for the day. He made a general and specific denial of all the al legations made by Whiteside and others. als were made in response to ques tions by Faulkner, and the witness uni- answered “1 did not,” “No” or 2 ng like it occurred.” Day admitted having accepted a present of $5000 from Clark, and said that he un- derstood it was given as a testimonial and as compensation for his services. His oath of office as a member of the House was read and seemed 1o produce quite an impression upon some of the committee.

Senator Clark was recalled and, in re- sponse to a question said he wanted the | control of the Legislature “in order, that we might have some recognition of our personal rights, because if Daly and his following were to have control property wes not safe nor life enjoyable”” He nued, saying that the Dalyites had deprived people, s in Silver Bow sunty, of their to choose for t ives in many and that the boycott was & common -weapon against those who did not recognize the Daly power. He thought also that the Daly people were determined to control the | county offices for the purpose of per- petuating their political control, and to orevent this was one of the motives of imself and his friends. His own candi- had not been an issue In the legisla- tive election. At Chandler's instance Clark related particulars concerning his former politi- cal contests. He said that in his contest for Congress in 1888 Daly had promised up to the night before election to sup- port him, but when the voting began the shift bosses in the Daly mines were found to be liberally provided with pasters, which they placed over his name in the interest of Carter. The result was his defeat by a large majority. Day’s Gift From Clark. Hon. E. C. D of the Montana House of Representatives, who was the Clark candidate for the speakership of the House, was called to the stand. He sald he had been nominated as a friend of Senator Clark, and then detailed the par- ticulars of the presentation to him of $5000 from Clark. Said he: While I was a member of the Legislature no man ever roached or offered me any , but the day after the Legislature ad- journed Mr. Davidson came to my office, say- ng he had come to express Mr. Clark’s thanks for my services and to present me a testl- monial of his regard and & retalner for legal services in connection with the prospective Senatorial contest.

Many people had warned him against White- gide, but his uniform reply was that “he can do no harm. If he does not vote for Clark we will 1ose nothing; if he does we will galn something.” He had never au- thorized Whiteside, he said, to see other members of the Legislature, nor had he offered or given him $10,000 nor any other sum as a bribe for his vote. He had not authorized_Whiteside to offer Senator Anderson $10.000 for his vote, nor had he said he would pay more for that Sen: tor's vote. In like manner Wellcome was led over a great deal of the ground covered by the previous witnesses who had used his name.

The speaker gave in a few words a clear con- ception of how plants and animals start in life, bringing out prominently the sPe- clal points of his lecture—heredity and the hybridizing and selection of new forms. Continuing he said in part: “If we should lose all our cultivated fruits, apples, pears, plums, ete., we could develop them all again from our wild plants. Select breeding and hydridizing | are the magician’s wand by which we can summon up any form of plant or ani- mal we want. It is said by Summerville that one can chalk out on the wall the kind of sheep wanted and then create that sheep. The same is true of a pumpkin or berry. But in creating new fruits it is a general maxim not to try for all forms at_once. The whole process is one of hybridizing and then selecting those forms that have the desired qualities. “It is a common saying that all arti- ficlally formed fruits rapldly degenerate. This simply means that certain kinds of {fruit are subordinated to others. These facts have to be taken into consideration. Sometimes the vitality of the fruit is sacrificed and sometimes it 18 some other quality. This sort of work gains on one side and loses on the other. We gain what we work for. Wisdom would lead us to gain on the side demanded by the market.” How to Fight Pests. E. M. Ehrhorn, entomologist for Santa Clara County, next spoke on “Fighting Iusect Pests,” saying in part: “‘California with her glorious climate presents a great field for investigation.’ It is said that the United States have done more in economic entomology than any other country in the world, and it is also sald that California has done more in practical entomology than any State In the Union. Why have we accomplished so mueh in California? Surely not on ac- count of systematic procedure or scien- tifle investi We admit that some cases had scientific investigation, but the bulk of our success was obtained in a haphazard way and all we may say is that the Lord was with us. There are numberless questions confronting us to- day and the following may be of Interest: “Why does carbon bisulphide injure some trees and not others? “Why 1s almond root more susceptible to injury by this liquid than other roots? ““Why does some of the liquid kill borers while some of it does not kill them when the same method of ?pllmnon 1s used? “Why does the San Jose scale thrive on a dusty tree? “These and many other questions are puzzling us to-day. A few competent in- vestigators in the field would soon deter- mine these questions. The life histories of all our pests would be cleared up and this means half the battle. The time has come when the fruit-grower must study these matters more carefully. He should endeavor to get acquainted with all the pests of his industry. If he finds an in- sect destroying his trees or crops he should send a few specimens to some com- petent person for determination who will also be able to give him a good remedy for it. If he finds insects which he is in doubt about, whether they are benefi- until he finds out all about them. Many instances have come to my knowledge where beneficlal Insects have been slaughtered for yvears by individuals who did not know that they were kiliing their best friends.” The Country Bank. H. W. Torchiana spoke on “The Coun- try Bank and Its Relation to the Horti- culturist.”” He traced the rise of the bank- ing system as a civilized institution, cul- minating in_the founding of the Bank of England in 16%4. He took the postion that the sphere of the country bank is to make the currency of the community as pro- ductive as possible. It should be in the | hands of some man who has the entire confidence of the community and who thoroughly understands the banking busi- ness. He asserted that there Is a two- fold reason why Interest charges are higher in the country than in the city.

Sufficient funds come in on deposit to meet the dally needs of the business. A second rea- son 18 because the wealthy men of the city are loth to loan their money on country property. This is due to the fact that they consider it but a second-class security, inasmuch as its value is more fluctuating, while they cannot look after 1t personally. Another reason is that real estate agents have so long misrepresent- ed the value of country property that money-lenders have become skeptical. Again, the bankers of the cities have lost considerable money on country loans. This amount is larger than many people realize, for the reason that while bank- ers willingly publish their assets and lia- bilities, they do not care to make known the extent of thelr losses. Mr. Torchiana advocated the establishment of country banks something after the plan of postal savings banks, saying that although the relations between the country banker and the horticulturist had always been very pleasant, he felt that the higher func- tions of banking could better be per- formed by the governmental system. Balance of Nature. The last address of the day was deliv. ered by Professor John H. Comstock of the department of entomology. His sub- Ject was ““I'he Balance of Nature.” The aker showed that though all specles of animals and plants tend to increase in a geometrical ratio the number of the species _living remains relatively the same. No one expects, on the one hand, that the oaks will completely cover even the unecivilized portions of the valley, nor, on the other hand, that the oak ca.te?}ll- lar will destroy the existing oaks. e two species, the plant and the insect, the host and the pest, live side by side with- out either n.t!n-ln.ln; the supremacy. e forces that make for the good or the ill of either species act with somewhat vary- ing strength, so that there may be slight | movements up or down. But on the whole, when the conditions for any con- siderable period are studled, it is found that the fluctuations are comparatively slight, and that there exists a matching of forces which may be termed the bal- ance of nature. While there are tnousands of species of | insects living in jhe United States prob- ably less than 100%are serious pests to civ- ilization. Secondly, there is a balancing of forces which prevents the undue in- crease of any species, except temporarily. If there i{s added to the forces that make for the good of cultivated crops the intel- | ligent action of man, it follows that the balance will be in favor of the crops. ‘While the cultivator should not relax his vigilance he should e courage that with intelligent effort He is sure to win in the fight.

This seems to be much | more destructiye ol insect life than the | cold winters of the Hast. This may be the reason that not one-tenth as many specles of insects exist here as in equally fertile regions In the Eastern States. The factors most helpful in [rresr»rvlng the balance between plants and their in< sect pests are the predaceous insects that wage war upon these pests and the parasites taat destroy them. It is ilmportant that the horticulturist should become familiar with the opera- tions of those allies and with their ap- arance, 0 as to be able to recognize | them and thus avoid destroying them. | Often large numbers of ladybugs have | been destroyed simply because they were not recognized as friends. The lecturer then described the appear- ance and habits of various predaceous in- sects and of insect parasites. Musicale Enjoyed. To-night an enjoyable musicale was given in the Assembly Hall in honor of the guest of the university by Henry L. Bettman, violinist, of 8an Jose, assisted by Mrs. Susie Hert-Mark, soloist, and rs. Edith Yurndley-Fallenius, planist, of San Francisco. SUT TO REGAN |22 BAIK STOCKS Wells, Fargo & Co.

Points of Federal law are involved and the case will find its way to the United States Supreme Court. Judge Williams appeared in his own be- half and Wells, Fargo & Co. ars repre- n:nll‘d by E. 8. Pillsbury of S8an Fran- cisco. The plaintiffs were all stéckholders in | the defendant bank, which, In 1896, fore- seeing a stringency in {ts business affairs, requested or suggested to the Controller of the Currency that it be authorized or | directed to make an assessment upon the shareholders. The directors accordingly, in the following December, passed a reso- lution levying such assessment. The plain- tiffs refused to pay the assessment. Thelr etock, as provided by the Federal statute in such cases, was put up at auction and sold, bringing 50 cents on the dollar. This was the amount of the assessment. The bank got its mon while the stockhold- ers were out their stock. The plaintiffs in their suit allege that the assessment was illegal and vold, chief- ly for the reason that the stockholders had no notice thereof and that withcut such notice the directors were not author- ized by the bank’s charter or by the Fed- eral 1aws to levy such an assessment. The bank demurred to the complaints, contending that the assessment was legal. The matter was argued some time ago at length, and Judges Sears and Frazer over- ruled the demurrer, holding that the as- sessment was illegaily made. At the trial to-day counsel for the do- fendant called C: fer R. M. Dooly to the | witness stand and asked him concerning the assets of the bank and their condition in 1897. In support of this evidenco, | which was objected to by plaintiffs: attor. | neys, Mr. Pillsbury said the measure of their recovery was the value of the stock | at the time of its conversion. If it had no value at the time of the sale they were not entitled to recover. Judge Willlams, in reply, sald the bank bad no right to convert stock to its cwn use and make a defense that the siock is of no value. The plaintiff is entitled to his stock. The law will not permit a de- fendant to say, “Your stock was not worth anvthing, therefore I can convert it to my own use.” AMORITA TO RACE NO MORE.

PURSUED BY A STRHNGE FTE Sad Story of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Silva. e il Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, Feb. 20.—The strange fate which has overtaken the Silvas has awakened much interest among search- ers for the mysterious. For twenty years A. J. Silva and wife have lived in this city, and during that time, by dint of | industry, have built up a fortune suf- ficlent to have enabled them to live in comfort the rest of their lives. Both held the respect and esteem of the community. A pronounced sensation, therefore, was | caused a couple of months ago, when Silva openly accused his wife of plotting | to murder him. The suspicion that this | was but a delusion on the part of the sband was dispelled when Silva brought rd a witness who swore that Mrs. Silva had offered him $40 to perform the deed. The authorities advised Silva to remain away from his place of business long enough to permit his wife to believe him dead. This was done and Mrs. Silva | expressed no remorse, but rather prom- ised to reward the supposed murderer more substantially when husband’s estate should be settled. Mrs. Silva was taken into custody and Judge Anderson deemed the evidence of sufficient weight to justify placing Mrs. Silva under heavy bonds to refrain from carrying the threat- ened plot against her husband Into exe- cution. Afterward on complaint of her husband, she was charged with insanity, examined and declared of sound mind. A divorce from her husband followed. All this time Silva conducted his busi- ness affairs as he had done for years and there was not the slightest suspicion as to his sanity. On Saturday last he sent to his ranch down the river for some sheep, and when they arrived he caused one of them, which appeared to be ill, to be killed, and an examination conducted by two veterinary surgeons. u.rnln, that pneumonia had caused the death of the sheep Silva ordered a hack and seven white horses to draw it and set about to %{ve the deceased mutton a swell funeral. he obsequies were calied off at the last moment, however, by the refusal of the stablemen to comply with his demands.

The act was performed so leisurely that scarcely anybody among the hundreds of parishioners present mar- veled at it.
