It was the magic of Stephen M. White’s name that brought the muititude together, for the former Senator was billed to speak. Dis- appointment was in store for them, {or through a misunderstanding White_did not come north from Los Angeles. Wil- | llam H. Alford was substituted and he de- l.l\--flm a speech that held the close at- | tention of the audience and very few left without hearing him to the end. R. P. Troy announced that there had been a misunderstanding as to Stephen M. White's engagement. The former Sen- ator had been in telephonic communica- | tion from Los Angeles with the State Central Committee in the course of the | day and it had been arranged that he uld speak in San Francisco Saturday | night. Mr. Troy then introduced John J. | Valentine as the chairman of the even- |ing and after a campaign song by Miss | Etta Walsh Mr. Valentine introduced Mr. Alford, who spoke in part follo Indusirial freedom is impossible o long as | a trust exists. We hear our Republican friends say that there are good and bad trusts. Mr. H there are “‘no trusts except the ice | trus ere can be no master without a | slave. John nan was right when he said that through rusts there would soon be a master to fix life The Republicans deny that there is an issue of imperia lay it down as a principla | that never has a powerful nation fallen except | by the indifterence of the people to evils at a time when they might have been remedied.

The change of the public thought Within that period is the most appalling proof of the existence of impertalism. But Republicans say, how do you know that we are golng to make slaves of the Filipinos— how do you Know we are not going to make citizens of them? Do you know which way McKinley is going on this question? they sk. We don't know and we doubt if McKin- ey does either. We do not know if he is go- ing to introduce imperialism by taking in 19,- 0000000 Filip = subjects or to degrade American labor taking them In as citi- zens. We do know he intends doing one or the other.

All who know me know how I felt in the matter. I was absent at the time the bill was voted I had been called to the bedside of my dying mother. Of this fact m; enemies took advantage in their ef- forts to fasten some kind of slander on e Continuing Mr. Kahn spoke gf the part he had played in preventing Nome being converted into a subport of entry, and of | had been putting many other beneficial bills hs instrumental in framing or through during his term. The speaker was introduced by the pres- ident of the club, George W. Lewis, who also addressed the audience on the issues of the day, telling them that the nation's prosperity lay with the present adminis- tration. Other speakers were Maxwell McNutt, who delivered a short but telling arraign- ment of political bunko men; I. Golden, who related how the flag had been fought for_step step in_the Philippines, and A. P. Van Duzer, whose speech reminded the audience of where their duty lay on election day. Sam Booth's quartet sang famous Rough Rider's ten, but not enough for the audience. W. I Heffernan chanted a | comic song; T. Ryan vocalized. as did Joe Martin and Fred Everett.

Irving and the Paraffine Paint Company, dared the other two concerns on the name of Irving to submit to a committee of Inspectlon | their cash and check books, which show | the record of their transactions with the | Board of Harbor Commissioners for 1897. Mr. Cope charges that these records will | show frauds, corruption and favoritism and his client was willing to give 3100 Just for a glimpse of the interesting rec- ords. But the S. E. Slade Company and the | San Francisco Timber Preserving Com- | pany will not show their books. No mer- chant of standing would do so, they say, and that Irving, knowing this, is simply | MONEY CANNOT BUY A VISION OF THE BOOKS —_—— meérchants. The Galveston sufferers looking for notoriety, having demonstrat- al to competition in busi- 50 the interested mer- chants sa e books have already been the object of the most searching scrutiny in open court and under conditions most favorable to those who wanted to see them. It is evident, therefore, that if any scandal be lurking in the cash books of the S. E. Slade Lumber Company or of the San Francisco Timber Preserving Company it will not come to the surface to affright ex-officlals and entertain the public. P. F. Dundon is the manager of the San Francisco Timber Preserving Company. He discussed Irving’s proposal yesterday and declared that he would not think of accepting it serfously. ‘“It is only a bluff,” sald Mr. Dundon. “Irving is look- ing for some cheap notoriety, but hi won't get it from me.- The whole affair ed himself unequ ness. =1, ton hurt somebody’ . and T sup- pose Somebody 18 trying to retallate. As far as I know there was no fraud in con- nection with any contract with the Har- bor Commission. seems to be nothing more serious than a | . | business man would open his books for the | The sensational demand of Samuel C. Irving upon the S. E. Slade Lumber Company and upon the San Francisco Timber Preserving Company to submit their check and cash books showing the record of the transactions of the firms with the Harbor Commissioners for the year 1897 has been politely but most em- will not, therefore, be enriched by $1000 through any expose of alleged frauds in the Board of Harbor Commissioners. P. F. Dundon, manager of the San Francisco Timber Preserving Company, laughs at Irving's pro- posal as the bluff of a disgruntled and discredited competitor who wants to secure some sensational affidavit. Mr. Dundon says that the very books which Mr. Irving wants to submit to an inspection committee have been thoroughly examined in court and nothing new can be learned from them. S. E. Slade of the Slade Lumber Company shares this opinion. He says that he really has no time to énter into a discussion which must of ne- cessity be profitless. So the harbor scandals, if there be any, must seek for the light through a medium other “Irving proved that he could not com- | pete with others, as he had nothing with which to compete. His so-called pile pre- servative was about as efficacious as saliva, and his goods weren't wanted. As for the books of the San Francisco Timber Preserving Company, they have bee court and have been thoroughly e ined by attorneys who had in their the presumption of business. ““If there was anything dishonest in our | cash and check books the attorneys for Irving had ample opportunity to discover | it then. It is idle now to ask for an in- | spection of them again. B hink that the Harbor Commissioners are well qualified to take care of themselves.” o avor knowing their own S. E. Slade of the Slade Lumber Com- | pany spoke in the same strain. He de- i clared that his books had been examined | in court at the time of the trial, and it would be absurd to suppose that any | inspection of any person who chose to look at them. ‘““The whole proposition is nonsense,” said Mr. Slade, “and nobody | knows it better than Irving. He is look- ing for notoriety."” LIFE POLICIES 1S ASSETS Important Issues Before the United States Court of Appeals. SN s The question whether life insurance en- dowment policies payable to the insured | should be made part of the assets of a| | bankrupt was argued before United States Circuit Judges Gilbert and Ross and United States District Judge Hawley yes- terday, The matter came up on the ap- peal of Adolph P. Scheld of Sacramento from an order made by United States Dis- trict Judge de Haven, requiring Scheld to deliver to C. A. Bliss, referee in bank- ruptcy, a twenty-year endowment policy of the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York for $5000, payable to Scheld himself. In case of the failure of Scheld | to surrender the policy, he was to pay to the trustee of his estate $187 17, the cash surrender value of the policy for the bene- | fit of the creditors. A remarkable feature of the case was the admission of Edward Lande and Al- bert M. Johnson, counsel for Scheld, that the decision of Justice Shiras in a similar | case was agalnst them, and their conten- tion that Justice Shiras had erred and | that the Circuit Court of Appeals should | disregard his opinion. That decision was | to the effect that in all the States of the | Union_life insurance endowment policies | ayable to the debtor, his representative, is estate, or disposable by his will, should | be made a part of the assets of the debtor for the benefit cf the creditor. Mr. Johnson took the stand that life in- surance policies, being exempt from ex- ecution under the laws of California, could not legally be made part of the as- gets of a bankrupt under the Federal stat- ute, because that statute recognized and allowed to the several States the exemp- tions named in the laws of those States. Thirty-four States exempted life insurance policies from belns considered as assets and eleven States did not. Therefore, ar- ued Mr. Johnson, the provision of the Federal statute was meant to apply only to those eleven States for the protection of the debtor so as to allow him to give his wife and children the benefit of the | policy on the payment by him of the cash surrendér value thereof. Isaac Joseph, attorney for the opposi- tion, quoted a large number of ‘decisions | sustaining the Shiras opinion and the case ‘was submitted. An interesting story.is involved in thfs bankruptcy case. The debtor, Adolph P. Scheld, is the only son of Philip Scheld, a millionaire brewer of S8acramento. While practicing on the county road with a re- volver in March, 189, Adolph accidentally killed Frederick C. Glueck, the owner of a small roadside house. The widow of Glueck, on behalf of her four minor chil- dren, sued Scheld for $20,000 damages for the loss of her busband, and the jury | | | | | i awarded her $3143 60, Scheld went into bankruptey, his only debt being the Su- perior Court judgment for ,the amount stated. In the opposition flied on behalf of Mrs. Glueck and her children it was charged that Scheld had committed perjury in his petition for the purpose of defrauding the Gluecks.

I do not know what is the matter with me.” You hear these wcrds every day; as often as you meet your friends just so often are these words repeated. More than likely you speak the same signifi- cant words yourself. and no doubt you do feel far from well most of the time. Mrs. Ella Rice, of Chelsea, Wis., whose portrait we publish, writes that she suffered for two years with bear- | ing-down pains, hewgmche, backache, | and had alipkindsol miserable feelings, all of which was caused by falling and inflammation of the womb, and after doctoring with physicians and numer- ous medicines she was entirely cured by | | | | | Mns. Euia Rice Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound. If you are troubled with pains, fainting spells, depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere, h ‘he, ‘backache, and always tired, please re- member that there is an absolute remedy which will relieve of your suffering as it did Mrs. Rice.

A devoted s ter gave up the blood from her own veins that a sinking brother might be strength- ened and saved if possible from the grave. | There was a pathetic as well as a heroic | | side to the scene. At the bedside of Attorney M. A. Dorn, | | whose serious illness was noted in Tues- day's Call, Dr. Dora Dorn stood, an‘i; while she stroked her brother's brow and | whispered words of encouragement Into | his ears skilled physiclans transfused from her arm her rich, strength-giving | blood into the arm of the sinking patient. | More than a pint of the fluld was trans- | ferted to the fast falling man, and as the | experiment was concluded the anxious at- | tendants could see that the patient was | rallying, and again there seemed to be a| Tayof Hope. | | ™3, “far ‘8id Mr. Dorn regain his former | seif during the transfusion process that | he was able to speak to those around him; then he relapsed into a peaceful slumber, from which he did not fully! awaken until nearly 6 o'clock last even- ing. Almost immediately upon his awak- ening there came a serious relapse and at | midnight the end seemed but a few hours | by first taken {1l six months | s at that time being diag- nosed as poisoning of the blood celis. This developed into an affection which destroys the red corpuscles of the blood until the supply Is one-fifth less’ than na- ture intended it should have. Two weeks ago yesterday Lawyer Dorn visited his office for the last time before | being taken to his bed. Since that day the } p““fn‘ has sunk rapidly. Everything that medical science afforded was brought into . but the benefits, If any, were only | | temporary. As a final resort and upon-the | earnest entreaties of the patient’s sister, | who is a recent graduate of the University of California Medical College, it was de- termined to experiment with the trans- | fusion process. 7 Dr. S};wrman. assisted by Drs.

Fitzsimons, a mining engineer, re- ported to Captain Seymour,Tuesday that he had presented a check at the Bank of | California for $300 which he had cashed in | Los Angeles, and he had been informed that the signature “H. M. Yerington" on the paper was a forgery. Fitzsimons explained to the captaln that he rpad been in Los Angeles on business | and was introduced to W. W. Cogswell by a man named Williams, superintendent of | an ofl company, who told him that Cogs- | well was in the oil business. Cogswell | learned that Fitzsimons was to return to | this city and asked him if he would oblige | him by cashing the check, which was | drawn on the Bank of California. It pur- ported to be signed by H. M. Yerington, | a well known mining man of \lrglma.} City. Fitzsimons had the money and | cashed the check. He returned to the city Monday and presented the paper for payment, with the result mentioned. Captain Seymour wired to Chief Elton | of Los Angeles to arrest Cogswell, and received a reply that no one of that name could be found in that city, and to send a | full descripticn of him. Seymour did so | yesterday morning, and a few hours later | received a reply that Cogswell had been arrested. The bank cfficlals wired Yerington of the forgery, and he replied that Cogswell was known In Virginia City, but he had not given him any check. The officials | say that the forgery is a very clever one | and closely resembles Yerington's signa- | ture. The case will have to be tried in Los Angeles, as_the crime was committed there, and Fitzsimons will leave at once to prosecute the prisoner. The police here | are puzzled to know why Cogswell should have remained in Los Angeles after Fitz- ! simons’ departure, as he must have real- | ized the fact that the forgery would be | discovered as soon as the check was pre- | sented at the bank. ——eey Grand Jury Board Bill Paid.
