FIXES RESPONSIBILITY FOR SERIOUS COLLISION Admiralty Court Decides the Empress of Japan Fouled the Bark Abbe Palmer. VICTORIA, B. C., April 19.—An ad- miralty ccurt, composed of Justice Martin, | Deputy Judge in Admiralty, and two naval officers, to-day gave judgment for the owners of the bark Abbe Palmer in | the suit brought by them for damages | arising out of the collision between that | ship and the Canadian Pacific steamship Empress of Japan in the Straits of Fuca | several months ago. The court decided that the officers of the Empress were en- | tirely to blame for the collision. The | amount of damages will be assessed by | the Registrar and two merchants ac- qua!nted with shipping. et | | She Did Not Vote Illegally. | DENVER, April 19.—Mrs. M. A.

Do not those superficial defects which our | eritics glibly enumerate go deeper? Has there | t beer a constant tendency develoved by Gemocratic institutions thus. far everywhere, in ancient times as well as in our own, to level down, sometimes to pare off individuality in | character and action; often to resent and pull down superiority, to encourage mediocrity and try to belleve if not to avow as a necessary article of true democratic Tit; faith that medioc- is equal to the best and just as good? urally this tendency which a republic gen- | erall seems to develop will lead to treating men not as individuals but in great masses. It thus invades the field of education and con- | verts the noblest work confided to man, the | molding, one might almost say the very crea- tion of Individual character into high pressure arrangements for the production of scholars | by wholesale into schemes to shape and manu- | facture characters and lives like chromos or carpets by inery. If the best education for a republic should | tend to counteract the defects it develops, and | £o elevate and strengthen it for a long and | Successful life, is it mot clear that we | G0 better with less wholesale processes, | our effort must be to exert individual influence | upon the individual vouth to be trained, with reference to his individual wants, and that if | | changes are to occur it -is betteh colleges we want instead of bigger ones? More Individual Attention. T plead for a system that would put the | most. into one's life, rather than for that | Which enabiles one quickest to begin life and | earn a living. The plea for the former in- { volves no disparagement vr the latter. It, too, has its place, supremely important in’the past, highly important still and always. But let us not deceive ourselves as to proportions and values, It is not the highest. To make a | 1ife full, rounded, with balanced character and serenity of judgment, with trained capacities for the highest work, the highest appreclation, the fullest and purest enjoyment, that is & greater thing than to make a living! TUnless these observations have wholly missed their purpose they must now have led your minds at least to consider if not to_ accept two propositions, which seem to me to sum up the mext advances for American colleges | and universities. They need now to give more individual attention to the individual | pupil, and they need to lead him on paths to the best learning for the best life, rather than merely for the quickest business or profes- sional success. The first proposition does not point to big colleges; and the second does not point to university development exclusively on | the lines thus far most in favor. Bigger col- | leges must mean less individual influence on the eager, Immature mind; the specialization most 1 favor in our universities is that which leads to ways to make a living, and while no one could want less of that, the highest education must give more of something else. The lecturer dwelt on the advantages of the old college training in the humanities. | philosophy, mathematics and science as | & preparation for advanced education, andq continued: It is to the high duty of perpetuating and enlarging that exalted type we have the right to summon our institutions of the most ad- vanced learning. We demand from them the combination of exact knowledge and ripe re- flection that makes the scholar: the ‘combina- n of right thinking and right living that akes the gentleman. There you have the eatest possibility of your colleges and uni- the consummate flower of your edu- system, the inspiration, and guide of . the safeguard of society, the orna- nd defense of the republic. | _This collegiate course was the best basis for | the higher learging, the best systems the | elghteenth and nineteenth centuries had to of- fer. It is the best basis still as we turn to the wider and better attalnments the twenti- cth century has to ofter. It has formed for | 'generations of our race, the badge of the best title any of the race have ever worn in any land or can wear—the proud title of scholar and gentleman.

Several of the more important questions were decided at this closing session, prob- ably the most vital being the abolishing of colonist excursions. Action was taken concerning the special rate which has been offered by the northern lines to off- set that for the Epworth League conven- tion in San Francisco in July. The rail- roads that terminate in San Francisco were anxious that the Northern Pacific, the Great Northern and the Canadian Pa- c withdraw the special rate, which is $45 from St. Paul to Portland and Puget Sound ports 'during the convention. The managers of the northern lines claimed that 2 special rate had been offered to the Epworth Leaguers and unless they offered some inducement they would lose business. They gained their point and will sell their tickets at a cut rate, but passengers will have to return East over the northern lines and there will be no RAGEDY CLOGES FEUD OF LOVERS John H.Gorham Murders His Rival at Cop- peropolis. Special Dispatch to The Call. COPPEROPOLIS, April 19.—The love of two men for a woman—a winsome moun- tain lass—was responsible last night for as shocking a tragedy as any romancer could conjure up. Maddened because Miss Bessie Cobb of this place accepted the at- tentions of George McCarty in preference te his own, John H. Gorham lay in walt for his rival and riddled his body with bullets. Following the murder he com- mitted suicide by blowing himself to shreds with an enormous charge of dyna- mite. Both men were prominent in this locality and the innocent cause of their estrangement, with its tragic sequel, is one of the most popular young ladies of Copperopolis. Gorham was madly in love with Miss Cobb, whom McCarty was courting. Last night the Dramatic Club held a meeting and both McCarty and Gorham attended. Gorham left the hall a half hour in ad- vance of McCarty and Miss Cobb, who drove in a buggy to the young lady’'s home. _Arriving at the gate, McCarty alighted and assisted Miss Cobb from the buggy and bade her “Good night” As she passed through the gate McCarty started to get into his buggy. ‘ Gorham ‘was secreted close by. As Me- Carty mounted the steps of Kls ‘vehicle the assassin fired three times, one bullet taking effect in his victim’'s back. Mec- Carty ran and Gorham pursued him. When about 400 yards from the scene of the first shooting they grappled. McCarty was weak from loss of blood and Gorham broke away from him and emptied his re- volver, two bullets taking. effect in Mc- Carty’s right side, killing him instantly. Gorham threw his pistol down and ran to an old vacant house, where he had some dynamite in readiness, Placing the dynamite upon the floor, he lighted the fuse and fell with his stomach across the cartridge, which exploded and tore him to shreds. Both young men belonged to the Odd Fel- lows here. Gorham was foreman of the Union Copper Mine and McCarty a well- to-do sheep raiser. GRAND JURY PROBES THE CASE OF PATRICK ‘Witness Tells of Having Disposed of a Large Check Given by Ac- cused Man. NEW YORK, April 19.—The Grand Jury resumed its consideration to-day of the EL MONTE, April 19.—The meet- glr‘ttercha.nge of tickets via San Francisco. his is the only step the roads that ter-, minate in San Francisco can take in re- taliation. The Government has sent circulars to all railroad companies inviting bids for the transportation of sailors who have been recruited in the East and that are to go to Manila to relieve the sailors that have been stationed there for a consider- able period. At the present time, and un- til June 30, the Santa Fe holds the con- tract for the transportation of all naval business. Bids for the new contract must be filed before May 6. No Cutting of Rates. At the meeting held here to-day it was decided between the Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe that in the future there would be no_cutting of rates, but that the two roads—and, in fact, all of the transcontinental lines that are in the as- sociation—will stand together and each take a percentage of the business. This will stop the cutting that has marked the obtaining of Government contracts in the past. The first detachment of sailors will arrive in San Francisco by the middle of July. charge of murder against Alpert T. Pat- rick, who is accused of having caused the death of Willlam M. Rice. The principal witness of the day was Charles F. Jones, former valet and secretary of the dead man. Other witnesses in the Grand Jury. rocm were Charles Wetherbee, the clerk in Swenson & Sons, bankers; Professor ‘Witthaus, and John R. Potts, a friend of Patrick. SCENES AND FACES AT THE GATHERING OF THE PASSEN- GER ASSOCIATION. -3 The railroad men do not take kindly to colonist rates. There are two more ex- cursions to arrive in San Francisco—on April 23 and 30—and these will ciose the colonist business. The argument that the railroad men put forward is that few act- ual colonists take advantage of the rate. They say that well-to-do people put their pride into their pockets, buy a colonjst ticket and ride under false colors. Down deep it is a slap in the face for the North- ern Pacific Railroad. . This line is not a member of the Transcontinegial Passen- ger Association. It receives more benefit from the colonist rate than does any other line, and being anxious to build up the population along its tracks it considers this the best means. Transportation of the Dead. At the meeting to-day the question of shipping bodles by express was brought Some of the members of the asso- ciation were anxious to induce the com- aries to transport the dead in this way. ‘hey failed, however, as there is an im- mense revenue from California to the East in_this branch of the passenger ser- vice. The same rule will be enforced as in the past: a ticket for the corpse and one for the escort must be bought on the shipment of a body to the East. At present the Canadian Pacific is the most generous to missionaries. It makes a rate of $3075 for all clergy traveling from Chicago to its terminus on the Pa- cific Coast. To-day the San Francisco routes were asked to make the same rate, but the motion was lost, and the clergy will continue to pay $36 25 from Chicago to San Francisco. The question of uniform baggage rates has been referred to the next meeting of the association. Before the adjournment a vote of thanks was extended the management of the Ho- tel del Monte for the service that has been rendered the association. This after- noon a number of railroad men in coaches and brakes took the seventeen-mile drive. Most of the members left this evening for San Francisco, a few remaining, however, to hold private conferences in reference to transportation matters. B S e 2 S T e e e e O o Potts Is a new witness. He testified at the hearing in the magistrate's court that on the day following the death of Rice Fatrick had given him a check for $25,000, made out to him by the millionaire, which had been certified by the Fifth-avenue Trust Company. Potts deposited it in the Chatham National Bank in trust for Patrick, but he sald to-day that he had taken the.check out since and handed it to the administrator of the Rice estate. AMERICA W FROM EASTERN STATES TO CALIFORNIA .AMEHBA i Transcontinental Passenger Association Abandons This Branch of Reduced Britain's REAP A PROFIT High Taxes Must Advantage Un- cle Sam. English Coal and Sugar Ex- porters Have Many Ob- jections. B LR Special Dispatch to The Call. CALL BUREAU, 1406 G STREET, N. W., WASHINGTON, April 19.—England’s new taxes imposed to meet the heavy charges growing out of the Boer war may prove beneficial to American exporters. It 4s not believed that the import duty to be imposed on sugar will affect trade between the United States and the United Kingdom in any way. Experts of the Treasury Department, however, believe that the United States will profit to some degree by the imposition of an export duty of one shilling per ton ‘on coal shipped out of the United Kingdom. Proaucts of the American coal mines have been gradually making their way into new | markets for several years past, and it is believed that in many places the present margin of cost in favor of British coal as against that from America is less than one shilling per ton, and that the imposi- tion of this tax, with the consequent in- consumers to buy* American coal. The largest increase is expected in those mar- kets which are relatively nearer to the United States than to Great Britain, but some increase may be expected in exports to Continental Europe. Tendency Toward Protection. The imposition of an import tariif on sugars with a differential of two shillings and two pence between refined sugar and sugars testing 76 degrees is looked upon here as a step in the direction of protec- tion, as it Is believed that this differ- ential is great enough to afford consid- erable encouragement to British refiners. This may lead to a reduction in_imports | of refined sugar into the United Kingdom, but as refined sugar is not an article of export from the United States American trade will not be affected by this. The United Kingdom took from the United | States last year 202,366,855 pounds of glu- cose, 2,874,606 gallons of molasses and 8,279,241 gallons of syrup. It is not_ be- lieved that the trade in these articl vill be_ affected materiaily by the tax. Secretary of the Treasury Gage is not disposed to believe that the new taxes will affect American trade with the United Kingdom to any material degree. He doubts whether the export duty on coal is large enough to give American coal any great advantage in competing markets. ‘War Loan Measure Passes. LONDON, April 19.—The House of Com- mons adopted the war loan resolution by a vote of 186 to 117. The Chancellor of the Exchequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach, in the House to-day confirmed the report that he was considering exempting from duty all coal contracts made prior to April 18. A committee of the Cobden Club met to-night and resolved to open agita- tion against the sugar and coal taxes. Replying to a deputation of members representing the coal iInterests, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach consented to an ar- rangement enabling the coal exporters to execute contracts, pending a decision as to what amount of the duties would be refunded. The executive council of the Mining Association of Great Britain, rep- resenting all the colliery districts in the United Kingdom, has unanimously passed a resolution to the effect that the new ex- port duty on coal will most seriously in- jure the principal exporting district, and that it will react seriously ta the preju- dice of the entire trade of the country. WAGING LEGAL BATTLE FOR BIG CREEK WATER Case of Hite vs. Madera Canal Com- pany Being Fought Foot by Foot. MARIPOSA, April 19.—In the case of John R. Hite versus the Madera Canal and Irrigatihg Company, and the Sugar Pine Company as intervenor, involving title to the valuable Big Creek water rights, the defense to-day moved for a dismissal on the ground that John R. Hite refused to subscribe and swear to a deposition at San Francisco regarding im- portant facts in the case. Mr., Hite, while plaintiff in the action,.had been sub- penaed as a witness for the defense. Both_sides argued the motion at great length. It was overruled by Judge Cor- coran, and an exception was taken. The intervenor then asked for and was granted permission to file an amendment to its answer to the complaint. The plea i of the statute of limitation by the jnter- venor was denied. e , Inspecting Soldiers’ Homes.

BOERS ARE NOT READY 10 QUIT Montagu White Writes a Most Encouraging Letter. Declares Republicans Have Plenty of Supplies and Energy to Fight. GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., April 19.—Sy- brant Wesselius of this city, a member of the executive committee of the Ameri- can Transvaal League, to-day received the following letter from Montagu White, American representative of the Trans- vaa NEW YORK CITY, April 18.—Dear Str: In reply to your inquiry as to'the rumors about President Kruger and Mr. Wolmarens counsel- ing surrender, I beg to inform you that there is absolutely no foundation for such ridiculous reports. Both the President and Mr. Wolmarens, as well as the other advisers in Europe, are strongly opposed to settlement involving a surrender of liberty or independence. Still less would they counsel surrender, because time is_the very essence of the situation. Reports from General Botha and the other fighting generals as late as the begning of February were encouraging, and indicate that unless a settlement Is effected the war will be of long continuance. Even the special cor- respondent of the London Times estimates that The burghers are Sxrsiully " husbanding. {hate swnomicien. of which they still have a generous supply, and there is no dearth of food, while the men in the fleld are by this time almost seasomed veterans. Spirit of Determination. The spirit of determination to continue the struggle is indomitable. With regard to the ction urged by some friends that further wonstrations in favor of the Boers are use- ss because they achieve no definite resuit, I beg to protest most strongly against such an assumption, because I am quite convinced that the indirect effects of such demonstrations are beneficial to the Boer cause. They are also a source of disquietude to the British and all tend to influence the public mind in the direc- tion of ending the war. It is, however, neces- sary that due publicity should be given to such meetings. I cannot too strongly urge our friends to treat the various rumors detrimental to the Boer cau th suspicion. The absurd reports about Dewet going insane and the Boers be- ing hopeless should be dismissed at once. Yours faithfully, MONTAGU WHITE. Honors for British Officers. LONDON, April 20.—The list of officers accorded promotions and honors for ser- vices in South Africa prior to November 29, 1900, when Lord Roberts gave up the command of the British forces in South Africa, fill sixteen pages of the Gazette. Lord Kitchener, General Buller, General Forestier-Walker and General White are made Knights of the Grand Cross of St. Michael and St. George; General Kelly- Kenrey, General Sir Archibald Hunter, General Kitchener, a brother of Lord Kitchener, and General Lyttleton_are made lieutenant generals; General Pole- Carew, General French, General lan Ham- ilton, General Charles E. Knox, General Sir Willlam Nicholson, General ‘Arthur S. ‘Wynne, General Charles W. H. Dougl: General Smith-Dorrien, General F. W. Kitchener, the Earl of Dundonald; Gen- eral Arthur Paget and General Bruce Hamilton are made major generals; Col- onel Robert G. Broadwood and Lieuten- ant Colonels Hert Plumer and Thomas Plicher are among those created extra aides de camp to King Edward. The offi- cers thus promoted have been holding the acting ranks to which they are now ap- poirted. Among the Knights Commander of the Bath are Rear Admiral Clarke, Lord Me- theun, Lieutenant General Charles Tuck- er, General Pole-Carew, Colonel W. G. nox, Brigadier General Hector McDon- ald, General French, Major General Hild- yard, General Ian Hamilton, General Charles E. Knox and Brigadier General Brabant. Among the Companions of the Bath are General Baden-Powell, Lieutenant Colonel Broadwood, Lieutenant Colonel Kekewich and Lieutenant Colonel Thomas Pilcher. Among those appointed Knights of the Grand Cross of St. Michael and St. George are also Lieutenant General Sir Francis Clery, Lieutenant General Rundle, Major General Prettyman, Surgeon General Wil- Clarke were appointed Knights of the Grand Cross of the Bath. Treatment of Buller. The Daily Express, in the course of an editorial on the military honors and pro- motions, complains that Sid Redvers Bul- ler has been treated with marked injus- tice, adding: “It is said that Lord Roberts strove hard to secure more proper recognition for him, but Mr. Broderick resolutely re- fused to admit that General Buller had any claims."” All the morning papers express grati- fication at the ample share awarded to the colonials in the military honors. The Sun yesterday, confirming the re- port that the peace fegotiations between rd Kitchener and the Boer generals have been renewed, suggests that some- thing is likely to be effected during Sir Alfred Milner’s absence. The paper also says the Government is divided as to who will fill Sir Alfred Milner's place. Mrs. Botha is again acting as a go-between. Six young ladles have learned the art of bellringing_in the village of _Bradfleld. England. They “rang in™ 191 at the church. .
