THE GALGATE CASE.
Judge Morrow Decides Against the
Libelant.


Libelant.
The Galgate Ship Company of England
has lost Its damage suit in the United
States District Court against Starr & Co.
of this city, which it brought for breach of
charter contract. 1t sued for $4,000 dam
ages, but Judge Morrow dismissed the
libel yesterday with costs.
In June. 1891, some negotiations were
entered into between the litgants by
which the steel ship Galgate. then on a
voyage from New York to Melbourne.
Australia. was engaged for Starr & Co. to
ship a cargo Of wheat or flour from this
port to Europe. Balfour. Williamson & Co.
were the agents of the Galgate Company in
Liverpool, and, acting under the lnstruc-
iions of Balfour, Guthrie & Co. of this city,
Starr & Co. s agents, an arrangement was
made with Messrs. John Joyce 81 Co.,
managing owners of the ship, and the
usual paper was drawn up.
The "charter party" was duly signed in
England on June 4, but when the ship
came here it was found that it provided
for competent" surveyor instead of a
''charterer's" surveyor, an erasure having
been made in the printed form and the
word competent written over. 1t was
contended by the libelant company that
the change was made with the knowledge
of the respondent firm. some cablegrams
having been sent here notifying Starr &
Co.. but, on the other hand, the respond
ents contended that the change was alto
gether unauthorized by them, and. mas
much as they showed that the ''charteI
party" signed 10 Liverpool was no,
according to what they had arranged for,
the court held for Starr q Co.

WAS NOT GUILTY.
Secretary Walthew Tells
His Story.
Admits That He Has Gone Under an
Assumed Name, but Says He
Committed No Crime.

Secretary George W. Walthew, alias
Williams, or vice versa. does not deny the
allegations as set forth in the telegram
from Detroit charging him with having
been mixed up in the Rhines voting ma
chine bill affair, which startled Michigan
politics in 1889.
Mr.. Walthew Is at present secretary OF
the Ship-owners' Association, which posi-
tIon he has held for some time past In
an interview he made the statement that
he had never in any way incrninated
himself in connection with the Michigan
Legislature and was simply made the tool
of others. He said:
"W hen the bill was about to be voted
upon did one foolish thing l was not
present when Legislator Wait spoke, but
others in the interest OF the bill came to
me and advised me TO stay away from the
newspaper reporters for a few days. By
going away it was represented to me that
the opposition to the bill would blow over
and it would pass.
II was foolishly persuaded to listen to
my advisers, as the passage of the bill
meant great deal Of money to me, and
this was the tempting incentive to me to
keep still.
II did not care to go back to Detroit,
although l was guilty Of no crime and had
nothing to do with the bribery. To avoid
loss of time and lengthy and tedious trial.
l came to San francisco and worked az a
reporter for a number of years ana finally
became secretary of this association.

CHINESE MISSIONS.
DR.. Taylor Returns From the Orient
After Three Years Labor.

After Three Years Labor.
Among the passengers who arrived on
the steamer Rio de Janero from the Orient
yesterday morning was the Rev. DR..
Taylor. accompanied by his wife and
chile. Mr.. Taylor comes from Canton.
China, where he for three years conducted
a missionary station In connection with
the American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions, but on account of his
wife's failing health was compelled to
seek a change of climate and surround
ings, and will leave to-day for Mrs. Tay-
lor's home at Nashville, Mich.
The American board, which establishe
the first recognized Christian mission in
China, was assisted soon after its organi-
zation by the Presbyterian workers and
continued jointly until 1873. when it was
decided to separate in order to extend over
more territory. The PresbyteriaDs there
fore agreed to cover the southern districts.
while the board worked in the north, on a
purely non-sectarian basis. The lab0rs
have been very successful. although the
change caused much dissatisfaction among
the Pacific Coast converts. who have re-
quested that An auxiliary station be main
tanned at Hong-KoD or some Western
port, where those members residing In
California could secure Christian home
of their faith when returning TO their
native land.
The late Wells Williams. professor of
Oriental languages at Yale College, was
one of the fist instigators OF the mission
ary movement under the American board,
and it was he who edited the first Chinese
dictionary prior to his departure for this
country.

pie to kill all the foreigners and burn their

an opinion on the subject says of this
document: "It is no low born pacard,
but a very we'll written document. 1t be-
gins W ith a mention of the opiDm war and
how several cowardly officials made the
appeal to arms failure by arrant cow

concession after another has been made to
the English barbarians until what with
our doctrine and our encroachments we

to histOry-how the past has lessons IN
that the northern barbarians could not Dy
