that, ito insure the maintenance
of reduced transportation rates

of its competition, the voting power OF
the stock must be confided to seven trus-
tees, who shall, by its exercise in the

The conditions of the trust require that

STATE OFFICERS CONCERNED
The Minister Holds q Consultation With

Issue Looks a. II It Had Narrowed Down to
Payment Of Indemnity for the
Expulsion Of Hatch

WASHINGTON March 25.-Dr. Guz-
man, the Nicaraguan Minister, was at the
State Department this morning. and the
inference is that he has been consulting
Secretary Gresham regarding the ultima
tum. 1t is evident the State Department.
is doubly concerned in this matter, and
statement from Ambassador Bayard ex-
planning the purpose of Great Britain is
anxiously looked for.
1t is not believed our Government can
object to the creation of committee OF
fair complexion to ascertain and find
damages sustained by British subjects in
Nicaragua, and the issue appears to have
narrowed down to the demand of an in
demnity of Els, 900 for the expulsion OF
Mr.. Hatch, the British Consular Agent,
at Bluefields.
There is already disposition to exam
inc into the matter further and ascertain
whether the Nicaraguan government did
not act entirely within the its rights in
expelling the consular agent.
1t was charged by the Nicaraguans that
Hatch. who was not diplomatic officer
and SO could claim no exemption on that
score, took an active part in the political
turmoil at Bluefields and did much to Sc
cure the overthrow of the Ncaraguan gov
eminent in the town and the re-instate-
ment of Chief Clarence. If this were
true, then, under ordinary conditions.
there would be little doubt OF the right OF
the Nicaraguan government to expel him
him from the country But the condi-
tions in Bluefields at the time were not
ordinary, for, according to the British
contention, the Mosquito Reservation was
actually under a British protectorate up
to the date of the Mosquito convention.

TOP OF HIS HEAD lis OFF
Case That Is Worrying Surgeons
Grand Rapids 81
A Man Pals Prom Train and has IN
Brains Taken Out by the
Wheels

CHICAGO, March PA special from
Grand Rapids, Mich. says: "The case OF
a man living with the top Of his head cut
off and the brain cavity almost empty Is
agitating the surgeons OF Grand Rapids
and vicinity. A week ago Charles Olsen
attempted to board a moving train, but
missed his footing and fell under the
wheels. His head was crushed so that
over half of the brains fell out, and when
the injured man was picked up it was
supposed that he was dead. Arrange.
ments were made for the funeral, but Just
before the coffin was closed the under
taker noticed the movements OF the sup
posed dead mans eyelids. and had the
body taken out of the casket and placed
in bed. Surgeons were called and they
declared that Olsen was not dead, but
simply in state Of coma.
by the use of electricity the surgeons
managed to arouse him to considerable
last but moment or two, as there was
nothing in the brain cavity except few
shreds of gray matter, but in a short time
the patient began to improve. He could
not speak, but seemed to comprehend all
that was going on around him. His re-
covery was rapid, and today he can sit up
in bed and say few words. Olsen does
not remember anything IN regard to
himself prior to the accident. nothing
of his past life and at first did not even
know his own name. The surgeons will
have Olsen examined by Eastern special
lists in order to find out how it is that he
is living, when, according to all surgical
rules he should be dead. A silver plate
was put in Olsen's head and he Is now
doing nicely. He complains frequently
that he can feel nothing and that nothing
he eats has any taste. He had lost nearly
so pounds since he was hurt"

THE STAR OF FREEDOM
Little Schooner Stolen From Her noorings
by SmuggIers

by Smugg1ers
SAN FRANCISCO, March 25.-The littl
schooner Star of Freedom has been stolen,
and is now probably engaged in some
smuggling scheme along the coast. The
vessel has been missing for two weeks.
She has as completely disappeared as if
swallowed up by the sea.
The schooner is owned by Captain W.
Johnson. owner and commander of the
Nicaraguan brig Salvador. Her last sea
voyage was from La Paz to this point.
She arrived here several months ago,
since which time she has been lying on
the Mission mud flats in charge of
Waterman.
Captain Johnson's wife, looks after the
craft in her owners absence and some
time ago she went to the wharf to see if
all was well, but discovered that the Star
of Freedom and the Waterman had dis
appeared. Instead of reporting the loss
she waited until her husband returned
He arrived last week and reported the
loss to the Collector of the Port
Some time ago man named Bartels
desired to charter the Star of Freedom,
but Mrs. Johnson would not let him have
the schooner. BarteIs achieved some
notoriety about two years ago, when he
arrived in port on the schooner Achilles
from Portland, Ore. A telegram was re-
ceived by Collector Wise from Port
land requesting him to hold the
vessel on her arrival. as she
had been stolen. A reward
was offered for the capture of Bartels and
the Achilles, but the reward, although
claimed. was never paid. Bartels was not
prosecuted either. He said that he was a
part owner in the Achilles, and the mat
ter was dropped.
The Star of Freedom is feet little
craft of about % tons. She is 81 feet in
length, 20 feet 5 inches breadth of beam
and feet 6 inches in depth of hold.

CIVILIZATIONS FUTURE

tention to the fact that an Indian Prince,
the Nawab Imad Nawaz Jung Bahadur,
being interviewed in New York City, did
thus deliver himself:
There is one thing that Americans do
not foresee. and that is. that San Francisco
is destined to be the first ana largest city
in America.
And therefore the Chronicle, all unmind-
full of the foretelling of many of her home
prophets that Oakland with its water
front, with its level grounds, and with its
milder climate, is destined to be The
metropolis and San Francisco the subur
ban-proceeds to exhaust more than Il

MARRIED HASTILY


The Plight Of . Divorced Woman In
Oakland
OAKLAND, March 25.-It is now a
month since Mrs. c. r. Schoonover dis
covered to her dismay that she has two
husbands and she has yet been unable to
learn whether she is Mrs. G. r. Schoon-
over of Oakland or Mrs. l.. r. Maxon of
Walla Walla. She had lived with Schuon-
over for a week as his wife when her
honeymoon was interrupted by Superior
Court decision, pronouncing her divorce
from Maxon invalid, inasmuch as the
statutory time allowed for Maxon to con-
test the proceedings had not elapsed. So
summons was served on Maxon in Walla
Waila, he not being opposed to the di-
vorce, with proper service, return and
evidence to show that Maxon had neglected
to contest within the sixty days allowed
should be produced, that a new divorce
mi hit be granted in Oakland. Sheriff Rose
of Walla Walla made the necessary return
a few days ago, and the divorce case was
set for Wednesday. 1t has now been found
that as Sheriff Rose is an officer OF anoth-
er state his signature cannot be recognized
without an affidavit before notary. An
other delay is therefore inevitable. In the
mean time Mrs. Schoonover, or Maxon,
and her new husband are living apart and
are pinng for each other.

To one who can read between the lines,
the story of Miss Phoebe Cousins of her
engagement to the late Fair is laughable,
albeit, in view of the woman lawyers
spinsterhood, trfle pathetic. But what
the public would like to know is why Miss
Cousins insists on giving to the world the
history of her love affair. Fair is dead
and cannot be sued for breach of promise.
And, admitting that Miss Cousins story
is true. which it probably is, the mere
fact of her betrothal gives her no share of
thedead mans many millions. After read
ing of the multitude of heirs and heir
esses that have arisen, and computing
the amount of the lawyers fees that
must come out of the Fair estate, rich
men may well reach the conclusion
that about the best thing they can do
with their money is to spend it while they
live, and not leave it behind for genuine
and bogus children to squabble over.
