made by w. w. Haskell, AGENT for the

Attorney Daniel Titus showed that the

read letter which tended to prove that
there was an understanding in regard to

The Old Time Steamer
Sirius Again Changes
Her Name.
Will! Now Run Opposition on the
Puget Sound and Alaskan
Route.
Big Cut in the Steamer Rates From
Coast Ports for the Christian
Eudeavorers.

The old.time steamer Sirius has taken q
new lease of life and a new captain is in
command of her. Several years ago she
came to this port with general cargo,
and later on was placed in the South
American trade. The venture was not a
success, and when the vessel changed
hands she was rechristened the Scandl-
navia. Her next venture was IN the sugar
trade and her name was changed to the
Kahului. The new owners found that
there was no money in the island trade,
and for nearly year the steamer has been
tied up in Oakland Creek. Last week she
received a thorough overhauling, Captain
Hall, late of the Corona, was placed in
command of her, and in few days she
will start on the Puget Sound route. She
is now under the American flag and Will
be known in future as the Cleveland. The
Lakme will run in connection with the
new steamer, and opposition to the Pacific
Coast Steamship Company on the Sound
route is now in order.
In connection with the meeting OF the
Christian -Endeavor Association to be
held in San Francisco next July the Pa
cific Coast Steamship Company has Issued

Passengers Thus Travelling Cannot Re-
cover insurance Against Accidents.
Two important questions in regard to
life insurance were considered in Judge
Hunts court yesterday during the trial OF
the case of Mrs. Mary I. BerlIner against
the Travellers Insurance Company Tor
$25 900 said to be due because OF insurance
on the lille of her late husband.
There were two counts in the COM
plant, one for $40, 900 on account OF an &C
cident policy and another for $4,000 on a
life policy.
In the course of the testimony the fact
was developed that Berliner was killed by
railroad accident in Mexico in Decem-
Der, 1895, and that at the time of the accl-
dent he was riding on the engine.
This being shown, the defendant cor
poration moved for nonsuit so far as
the accident policy for 10000 was con-
cerned. on the ground that The engine
was not the ordinary place for a pas
senger, and that Mr.. Berliner was not
insured against accident except while
travelling in the usual way.

II l. apparent that the war beWeeh
Turkey and Greece is practically over.
The Turkish troops have driven the
Greeks before them, causing them 70
abandon position after position, until
now the whole of Thessaly is under
Turkish control. The Greeks have
moi on the whole sustained their repu-
tation as soldiers. They have been
poorly led. their generals lacking IN
skill and courage The troops, too,
have not shown the determined BRAY
cry of their opponents. The Greeks
were outnumbered, but had the adyan-
tage ofbeine in their own country and
near their base of supplies, and also
having undisputed mastery Of the sea.
While Turkish success seemed assured
eventually. the weakness OF the Greeks
has made the task of conquest easy.
The Turks were probably better
eauipped and have able and expert
cnced leaders, but the real credit
falls TO the common soldiers who have
shown most admirable qualities. Ii
has often been remarked that no sol
der, in the world were superiOrs Of
the Turks. Bravery is part of their
religion They believe that death in
battle under the Ottoman banner in

/ Ii recalls the time when, under the
chiyalric Sahdin. the Saracens proved
such redoubtable foes Of the crusaders.
| The Greeks are now on the point OF
suing for peace, either directly or by
asking for the mediation Of the great
powers. The terms will probably in
clude the abandonment Of Crete by the
creeks. the restoration OF the same
boundary lines as existed prior 10 the
conflict and the payment Of heavy in

which is reallya puppet creation
OF the leading European powers,
will find itself most unpopular

forced to abdicate. The burden OF

Harpcr's Weekly has an interesting
article in its last issue on Forest Pre-
serves in Vermont, written by G.. T..
Ferris. The author draws rather
melancholy picture of industrial con-
ditions in Vermont. He finds that ow-
inc to the competition of the West
much Vermont land that was cleared
and TILED a generation ago cannot be
profitably cultivated now and has been
abandoned by the owners and re
claimed by the forest In fact, it is
only the richest or most accessible
lands that can be successfully titled
today in the face of the low prices for
agricultural products forced by the
West The question arises. What use
can Vermont make of her forest lands j?
The first answer would be, Clear the
timber for what it will bring. OF
course something can be realized in
this way, but once cleared. the land
is worthless for generation until the
trees can grow again This would
make a very small rate OF interest or
else avery small principal invested in
the lands The writer thinks far
better use would he to devote these
lands to fish and game preserves. The
