ARTHUR CROSBY, D.D,, Head Master, | the offices of ! minutes later anl | | expect to spring a great sensation as | { at the request of Miss Warren's attor- j for the World’'s Fair_will be MISS WARREN 1S OUESTIONED |Chief Beneficiary Under the ' Will Begins of Bertha Dolbeer Her Deposition Miss Etta Warren, main inheritor of the estate of the late Miss Dolbeer, was technically on the witness stand yester- day. After several summonses she con- sented to have her deposition taken in Johnson & Johnson, on the ninth floor of the Mills building. Veiled to a depth that baffled photog- raphers to catch her features, Miss Warren entered the elevator of the | Mills building under an escort of E. S. Pillsbury, \\Hllam Mugan, George D. Gray and M Alexander, an attendant of the late heires These were con- ducted to the inner offices of Johnson Brothers. Garret McEnerney, attor- ney for Miss Warren, arrived fifteen was immediately shown to the inner rooms. All others were barred. The deposition of Miss Warren as far as taken developed no sensations. She testified to her first employment | by Miss Dolbeer as nurse 2t wages.-of $30 a month. In this capacity she served for several years and was finally advanced to $40 a month. For sixteen years she had been Miss Dol- beer’s companion, she said. During that time deponent and her dead mis- tress toured Eastern cities at intervals averaging two years. Miss Warren had never noticed signs of illness in Miss D~'heer. uptil the spring of 1904. Then =uc had complained of sleepless- ness and seemed depressed. She re- ceived treatment from Drs. McGonigle, | vised the rest cure for Miss Dolbeer | and a different nurse. The witness testified that in April, 1904, she and Miss Dolbeer sailed for Europe and that at that time the latter seemed to be in good health. On the| return to New York, said Miss War- ren, there were no symptoms of mental | aberration in Miss Dolbeer’s condition. Hiram W. Johnson, attorney for the contestants of the Dolbeer will, did all | the questioning during the taking of | the deposition. He brought out the‘ claim that on April 3, 1904, Miss Dol- | beer telephoned to T. S. Watson, a | lumber dealer,that she wished to make | her will. The deponent accompanied | Miss Dolbeer to Watson's office, but she heard nothing further regarding | the will. Practically this ended the questioning for the day. Miss Warren was dismissed with injunctions to re- port to-day at 2 o'clock p. m. for further questioning. Undoubtedly the Johnson brothers a result of Miss Warren’s deposition. Neither of them made any effort to keep the contents of the testimony secret and said that the closed door policy was entirely due to a ruling obtained from Probate Judge Coffey | ney. “In the interest of our clients,” said Albert Johnson, “we are making a fight to a finish. We expect to show many things that will be sensational. If necessary we shall have witnesses from Paris, New York and San Fran- cisco to testify in favor of our clients. What this testimony may be will de- pend largely on developments in Miss Warren's depositions. Unless she ad- mits many things we shall have to re- but her testimgny.” The attorneys fol Miss Warren re- fused to talk regarding her deposition. ————— Biggest Excursion of the Year. The official Y.

Decisively Bt ol Special Dispateh to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Sept. 6—Judge Well- "born, in the United States Circuit ICoun to-day. .rendéred a decision which, 'if it be sustained by the higher courts, will be ‘of immeasurable im- portance to_the citrus and other fruit’ ‘shippers of this State. The case was that of the Interstate Commerce Com on, ‘acting for the shippers, against the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe railroads. The opinion of the court i{s voluminous, covering forty closely- typewritten pages. He sustains practically every point-advanced by the shippers. The keynote of the decision is the declaration-that the. arbitrary routing of fruit shipments by the ihitial lines is contrary to the provistons of the Interstate commerce act in that it destroys competition and places. the shipper at the mercy of the railroad companies. The Judge ordered a dedree entered granting a writ of injunction, or other proper process, mandatory or other- wise, to restrain the defendants from further continuing in their violation of and disobedience of the orders of the Interstate Commission to discontinué the pooling arrangement bgtween the. several roads in interest, and the at- torneys for the complainant were in- structed to prepare findings in accord- ance with the decision. In his decision Judge Wellborn makes coplous’extracts from the testimony of Paul Morton and other prominent offi- cials of the rallways during-the hear- ing, in which they admitted that the arbitrary routing of citrus fruit ship- ments was for the purpose of stopping the rebate system, which operated dis- for the purpose of controlling the busi- ness absolutely {n order to mnlntun tariff rates. These officlals admitted that their ac- tion might Be open to crtiicism from a strictly legal standpoint, but- justified their acts by saying it was for the pub- lic good and for the improvement of the service. Judge Wellborn holds this po- sition is untenable and, as against both the ‘letter and the spirit of the inter- state commerce act. By the arbitrary routing ,of shipments, as confessed by the rallroad officials themselves, they secured the absolute comtrol of the en- tire business, thereby preventing con- necting roads from competing for the | business ‘and not merely restricted competition, but absolutely destroyed it. —_—————————— FIRES CAUSE DAMAGE IN S "lA CRUZ COUNTY Big Flume Is Burned and Several Dams Are Threatened: by the Flames.
