National Temp Trustees Issue
q Call For Funds.

Chicago, April 1O.-The trustees of the
National Temperance hospital have set
out to raise $50. 600 to purchase a site
and erect a new building. "A clarion
CALI to those Interested in temperance
work has been issued over the sigma
lures of the general officers of the Ma
tional Women's Christian Temperance
union, under the auspices of which the
the hospital was started ten
years ago. The site in view
is just south of the Woman's Medical
college, directly opposite the county
hospital and in the immediate vicinity
of half a dozen other medical institu-
tions
When the hospital was established to
demonstrate the practicability of sue
cessfully treating all diseases without
the use Of alcoholic liquors it was the
only institution Of the kind in America
Sir benjamin Ward Richardson had
previously established a temperance
hospital in London, and clearly proved
that alcohol was not an essential in
the sick room, but the idea had won
few adherents among medical prac-
toners in the United States. ChicagO's
hospital was the source whence the
idea. has spread over the country, until
now it has its advocates among doctors
of all schools.

BILE and poor digestion is because both
organs are controlled by branches of
the same great nerves, the Sympathet-
ic and Pneumogastric-
In another way, also, the heart is
affected by that form of poor digestion
which causes gas and fermentation

chest caused by pressure Of the dis
tented stomach on the heart and lungs
interfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath.

the Brotherton case, Captain Lees OF
worldwide reputation is very different
man from Captain Lees of to-day. If he
was the same Captain Lees he would not
have allowed Dean ndssMcCloskey, two OF
the slickest thieves that ever the sun
shOne on, to escape"
Attorney McPike proceeded to review
some of Lees theories. Captain Lees"
he affirmed, sis great iheorizer. When
he drops onto theory he sticks right to it
and nothing can shake him off it. After
he had Dunn in custody the veteran de-
tective formulated a theory that there
we're others engaged in the Nevada Bank
forgery and that Dean could not have
done it alone. Dean, he said, after hav-
ing taken him around on various occasions
TO the Cliff, to the park and the prize-fight
Dean, you didn't forge that draft-you
couldn't. You're only an ordinary coun-
terfeiter, only convicted twice of counter
feiting. You can make greenbacks that
will defy all but expert scrutiny, but you
can't raise draft Dean readily dropped
on and was quite positive that he could
not.
Having formed his theory the captain
mmediately set ou: to fit the facts to it.
He helped to secure McCloskey's acquit-
tai, for it was part of his theory that
Creegan, not McCloskey, was Deans ac-
complice. If Captain Lees had used all
his efforts to convict Dean and McCloskey,
the arch-criminals, that he used to defend
them, the trial of these defendants would
never have taken place."
At the conclusion of Attorney McPike's s
remarks which. he said were but a gem
eral introduction to the argument for the
defense, Judge Wallace adjourned court
until this morning at 10 O'Clock, when the
argument will be resumed. In ali prob
ability the case will go to the jury before
this evening.

to Stockton. from any point which that
railroad touches; and more than this, such
shipments will take cheaper rate than
has ever before been enjoyed by the pro-
ducers of the section benefited.
These new rates to San Francisco, Port
Costa and Vallejo are made in connection
with the California Navigation and I'M
provement Company, which will operate
a line of steamers, as outlined in The CALL
yesterday. between Stockton, San Fran
cisco, Vallejo and Port Costa.
In its latest tariff, made to meet the
competition of the Valley road, the South
ern Pacific Company quoted largely re-
duced rates not only to Stockton, but to
Port Costa, Vallejo and San Francisco,
Notwithstanding that the Valley road had
quoted rates to Stockton only. By the
new Southern Pacific schedule the rate
between Stockton and Vallejo or Port
Costa was fixed at so cents, and between
Stockton and San Francisco at 81. 1t was
to meet these rates of the Southern Pacific
to San Francisco, Vallejo and Port Costa
that the traffic arrangement with the
California Navigation and Improvement
Company was made.
The latest schedule of the Valley road
more than meets the cut of its big rival,
1t makes an all-round rate of 90 cents pei

SOCIALISM AND ECONOMY.

e. T. Kingsley Delivers an Address at
the Temple.
Liberty Branch of the Socialist Labor
party was addressed at last nights mass
meeting in the Temple, 115 Turk street.
The chairman, Henry Warnecke, out
lined the political objects of the Socialist
Labor party and referred to the address OF
the evening as very appropriate at a
time when the economic fallacies of the
day are causing many supporters of the
old parties to sever their allegiance thereto.
After reading from sociaIistic journal
by the secretary of the branch, Theodore
Lynch, the chairman introduced E. T.
Kingsley, State organizer of the party,
who said: If were to ask your attention
tonight to a question that affected money,
tariff or some of the other unimportant
questions, you would be far from the
cause of the evils, that infest society.
Foolish people, who claim that socialism
is the product of q particular nation, are
daily receiving an object lesson in the
economic field. Every intelligent man to-
day in this country knows that socialism
is the child OF economic conditions.
'sFhe workers of America are face to face
to-day with condition of things that
must inevitably end in their complete
degradation to abject slavery or revolu-
ton if those who love their country and
their fellow beings neglect the advantages
that socialism offers to adjust the society
we live in on a more harmonious basis.
We are living to-day in the heroic age
an age in which the chivalry of youth can
again emulate the spirit of liberty that
animated the heroes and patriots of days
gone by"
Short speeches by strangers and econ
omlc inquirers followed, and among them
were remarks by Rev. ]. E. Scott, Leo
Gasser. William Edlin and Theodore
Lynch.

These rates apply TO grain in carloads of
24,000 pounds and upward, and are in
cents per ton of 1000 pounds. They went
into effect yesterday. The rates quoted
beyond Stockton are subject to changes in
traffic arrangements with carriers by water
from that point.
In this schedule is also included reduc-
ton of cents from Empire TO Stockton.
This is now 81 10. The reduction was
made to meet the 81 10 rate quoted by the
Southern Pacific from Modesto, which
station is in connection with both Clau-
ston and Empire of the Valley road.
Up to July of this year the steamer
rate for grain from Stockton to Port Costa,
Vallejo or San Francisco was rs cents per
ton, but on the first of the present month
60 cents was quoted from Stockton TO Port
Costa and Vallejo and 90 cents to San
Francisco, so that the new rates make a
reduction on even the previous steamer
rates.

WOMEN REPUBLICANS.
The State Club Had a Good Attendance
at Its Meeting Last
Nipht


Mrs. Addie e. Ballou presided over the
Womens State Republican Club last mig bit
IN Justice Groezinger's courtroom.
There were a good many well-known
Republicans present from the Phoenix
Club and Continental League, besides a
large attendance of the lady members of
the club.
Short speeches were made by Dawson
Mayer and j. Kelly of the Phoenix Club.
Mrs. Bailey spoke of the epublican
party as being the only party from which
the women may expect the right of suf-
frage. She said she would rather be a
Republican without vote than a Demo
crat with two votes.
Major G. w. Kyle, in one of his eloquent
addresses, praised the Republican women
of San Francisco for the services rendered
by them in the interest of the party, and
hoped that the day might not be far dis
tant until they go side by side with their
fathers, brothers, husbands and sons to
the polls and assist in framing laws under
which they shall live.
This is one of the constitutional rights
given the men, and it should be given TO
women also. Taxation without represen-
tation meant great deal to the American
people, and because it did in the past revo-
lutionize nations, it will now in the near
future revolutionize politics throughout
this land.
Judge Campbell bowed to the women
and made short address on the suffrage
question which was well received.
G. II. Clear of the Republican County
Committee followed with few we'll timed
remarks, and finished by singing the cam
paign song, THE Workmen's Jubilee"

lowed, after which Mrs. Ballou in neat
speech thanked the men for their visit and
promised to assist the Republican party.to
