FoRCEFUL PROPOSITION.

One Is Made in the Green Mount
ain Case.
The case of Matson against the Green
Mountain Stock Ranching company
came on for a hearing before Judge
Hicks yesterday, after postponement
of several weeks on account of the alb
sence of Col. Ripley. The court stated
that in hearing the argument it would
listen in detail to each item in the COM
plant in which discrepancy Of value
occurred and allow the defense TO an
swer it. AS soon as this was decided
upon the colonel began with the item
of the breaking sheds at the transfer.
and MIR. Belden, for Fletcher Bros,
arose to his feet with great earnestness
and remarked that at this stage of the
proceedings he wished to make state

pared to deliver over four-fifths of the

ute. It is shame that these defendants
should be under the ban of this charge
when they have about 100000 tied up
in this concern which they would like
to shift if they could. l would like to
say word as to values. Col. Ripley
has no foundation as to values but his
own unsupported affidavit, and the
court is aware from its own knowledge
that the tendency in the stock market

''that the plaintiff must show some ac-
tual fraud before the strong hand of
the law eau be stretched forth in this
matter. The court has no right to act
on mere suspicicion. This matter of
suspicion is best shown by the damage
that can be done by the mere suspicious
of some. We have today run on a
perfectly solvent bank because some
people are acting on mere suspicion.
Should the court act thus, it would be
doing just as foolish thing as some OF
the depositors in that bank.o
Judge Hicks went on to say that he
had engaged in the stock-raising busi-
ness once on his farm, and prices had
come down so that he was obliged to
sell four-year-steers for just what they
had cost him at ten months old. With
the understanding as to the line the
court intended to take in the matter.
the attorneys took up each item in turn,
and exhausted the subject in each.
Judge Hicks was suffering from
severe cold and sore throat, and ad-
journed the hearing at noon i'll order to
put in the balance of the day at home to

ATHLETIC CENTER.
Lots of Sports Are Gathering at
Lake Calhoun.

Lake Calhoun is quite center of
athletic interests. Billy Maber and his
trainer, r. Turner, are stopping at the
new hotel, and are hard at work getting
in condition for the match with Griffin
at the Twin City club rooms May rs.
Plaisted, the trainer of the Lurlines, Is
working with Maber some. He usually
accompanies him on his morning stroll
of about eight miles. After breakfast
Maber takes a row on the lake and
spars little. In the afternoon he spars
and pounds the bag. He is getting
into first-class condition, and is already
inside the prescribed weight. He is
active and hard hitter, and will make
an interesting contest, to say the least.
At the Lurline clubhouse every even
ing may he found the amateur devotees
Of sport. More than twenty men are
rowing every night, and Trainer Plais-
ted speaks we'll Of the material. As an
nounced in the GLOBE this morning,
there IS to be a regatta next Saturday
at 5 o'clock, in which fours, doubles,
singles and gigs will compete. Plaisted
wants these to occur every Saturday.
He says it will create interest and bring
in more material from which to choose
for the final contests, and give the men
a chance to show how they will act
under excitement.

CALIFoRNIANs CELEBRATRE.
Anti-Chinese Agitators Make the
Chief Addresses.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 16.-A thousand
or more people assembled at Third and
Market last night to celebrate the de-
livery of the anti-Chlnese decision, The
chief addresses were by the antl-Chi-
nese agitators, DR.. G. G. O'Donnell and
Dennis Kearney, but neither speaker
succeeded in arouslng high degree OF
enthusiasm. 1t was decided to hold
procession next Saturday night, and the
presidents of all the labor unions were
named as a committee of arrangements.
Rev. DIR. Condit, the head of the Pres
byterian Chinese missiont on the Pa
cific coast, who has been engaged in
Chinese mission work for over twenty
years, and has spent much OF the time
in South China. was interviewed rela-
tive to the effect of the supreme courts
decision in China. He said:

provisions of the Geary act so far as
TO deport the Chinese now in the United
States, would be very dangerous
thing. l should expect that, immedi-
ately upon learning of an attempt to
do this, the Chinese government would
order all Americans to leave China at
once. Every American building in
China would be destroyed, either torn
down or burned, and the killing OF
many American residents could hardly
be prevented"
Rev. n. j. Poon Chew, who is assist
ant head of the Presbyterian Chinese
missions. and was formerly a resident
of Canton, China, said in an interview:
The Chinese people are not I'M
friendly towards people of the United
States. Our prime minister is also
friendly disposed, and now that the
Geary act has been declared consttu
tlonal, think if the Chinese are given
another opportunity to register they
will do so. 1t was great disappoint-
ment to US to learn that the supreme
court has so decided the case. We have
relied q great deal upon what our attor-
neys, especially Nh. Choate, had told us.

PRESBYTERIAN CONGRESS.
1t Will Be Held in Saratoga Early
in June.

ALBANY, n. Y, May 16.-A great
Presbyterian congress is to be held at
Saratoga, June 6, z and 8. The plan of
the congress embraces the presentation
in turn of the work of each of the eight
boards of bene6cence of the church.
No SUCH attempt has ever been
made before to bring together
the various objects of denomina-
tional interest aud to impress the
church with the scope and importance
OF its work under conditions which pre-
vent the dissipation of interest and en-
thuSiaSm by the consideration Of legis-
lative and judicial questions. Ample
time is to be given for the presenta-
ton and discussion of each cause.
The list of speakers already Sc
cured includes many Of the
most prominent Presbyterian minis
tiers and laymen. This congress is to be
a delegate body in name. Every church
and presbytery ana woman's society
will be officially represented. All who
attend, however, and who bring certif-
icates from pastors or clerks OF session
will be regarded as CORES ponding mem-
bers and entitled to all the privileges OF
regularly elected delegates.

Financial circles are serene again.
The Farmers and Mechanics bank
stood the run of Monday and Tuesday
with such ridiculous ease that the whole
town is laughing at the "gillies" who
drew out their money and lost the inter-
est on their deposits. Last night at the
hour of closing but handful of people
were in front of the banks windows,
and this morning the run will be as
completely a thing of the past as if it
had never occurred. The total amount
drawn out was only $500, 600. and the
bank still has on hand in its vaults over
100000, with the privilege of drawing

''All right, said the individual adj

CALIFORNIA BANKRUPT.
The Deficiency Said to Be Nearly
St7,OOO.OOO.


SACRAMENTO, May 16.-An evening
paper publishes a statement Of the
financial condition of the state govern
ment, showing that the state Is bank
rupt and is unable TO meet its obliga-
lions. 1t is estimated in the comp
trolIer's office that when this admins
tration is ended the deficiency will be
Sl7.O0O,O00. The general fund is eX-
hausted, and payment from counties to
be made this month will vanish In a
couple of weeks. Then the treasury will
be empty for the rest of the year.
Creditors of the state are clamoring for
money due them, but the board OF ex-
aminers has failed to meet and pass the
claims. The law requires the board to
count the money in the treasury each
month, but it does not do so. Debts are
piing up against the state. and the out
look for its creditors is not very hopeful.
1t is generally known that the finances
of the state are not in a very good condi-
ton, but 1t is tolerable certain that the
published statement is somewhat ex-
aggerated.

AN EXCITING MOMENT.
Meeting Between Policeman
and a Pair Of Burglars.

Officer Matt Kaehn had a thrilling
experience with a brace of burglars
Monday night. While patrolling his
beat on First street North, between
Fourteenth and Fifteenth avenues,
about 2:2O yesterday morning, he saw
two men skulking in lumber yard. He
approached to investigate and was met
by bullet from a revolver which struck
the club hanging by his side. There
was another report and the bullet
whizzed through his cap within an inch
of his head Kaehn drew his revolver
and blazed away in the darkness at the
shadowy figures. He heard cry and
rattle of wheels ana in few moments
was alone in the lumber yard.
Subsequently he found bag full OF
toilet soap and smaller articles that had
been stolen, and discovered soon after
that the grocery store of DueVel q
Lund, 1913 Washington avenue north,
had been burglarized. The thieves had
a horse and buggy hidden in the lumber
yard two blocks away, and had no doubt
intended to make big haul.

A New Public building.

The city owns property on the corner
of Spring and South streets, which at
present is practically useless, the old
brick buildings on the lot being used for
storehouses and not much besides. For
small expense, say $4,000, a substantial
brick building can be erected there,
which will furnish admirable accommo-
dations for the evening school. 1t is al
so proposed to put the manual training
school there, furnishing power, if neces-
sary, for the running of lathes and other
woodworking machinery. The building
would be of ample size to accommodate
other enterprises. For instance, Mayor
Baxter would like to put all the chari-
ties into suitable rooms there. The Port
land Proyident Association, Widows
Wood Society and Associated Charities
now have apartments in the City Build
ing, but it would be an advantage to
bring them nearer together and estab-
fish closer relations among them.
Probably steps will be taken to put up
this building within a few months. 1t
will be neat in outside appearance and
the inside finish will be plain and sub
stantial.
