A Deposition From Lodi That Will

9O8 broadway, Apri; 81.
A deposition was received from Lodi to-
day which shows verT clearly that the
antipathy of DR.. George G. Pardee for his
stepmother commenced, or at least was
exhibited, the very day of her arrival
from Lake Tahoe, where she and the late
doctor spent their honeymoon seventeen
years ago.
L. Nj. Morse, farmer living few miles
out OF Lodi, is the latest witness in the
will contest which Is fast becoming
famous. Being in poor health and Is
years OF age, he stated that he was una BILE
to come TO Oakland and be present at the
trial which commences next Tuesday, and
commission was issued for his deposi-
tion to be taken at his home.
L. NJ. Morse is brother-in-law of Mrs.
E. H. Pardee, his wife and the late doc
tors wife being sisters. He has been
acquainted with the doctor for twenty
years and has known the widow since she
was little girl. When living in Oakland
many years ago she was an intimate
acquaintance of the late DR.. Pardee and
frequently called at their house.
Il remember the marriage very well, F"
said Mr.. Morse. ~ called on them with
my son George Immediately DR.. E. II.
and Mrs. Pardee returned from Lake
Tahoe. We were in the dlning-room when
Geor.e Pardee came in from the hall. AS
soon as he entered Mrs. Pardee said,
How do you do, George a. the same

ing an offer TO shake hands, but he re-
pelled II. He refused to take her hand,
made 8 stiff nod and sat down at the table

1t must have been O memorable dinner
according TO the testimony of Mr.. Morse.
DR.. Z. II. Pardee sat at the south end of
the table, Mrs. Pardee at the frigid north.
DR.. 6. Z. Psrdee on the east, facing Mr..
Morse and his son, who sat on The west
side. These facts Mr.. Morse remem bers
well, because the conversation at the din
| ner table was so limited that tuere was
very little TO think about except The po-
| sitions the various people occupied.
George did not speak" says Mr.. Morse,
| 'but looked at his plate and contented
himself wit being silent. He was stay

regularly, and on the occasion OF our visit

4 CHILD WITH No NAME,

That May Result in Dis.

Purpose That Is Decidedly

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,
o0S Broadway. April 81.

90S Broadway, April 81. !
A REGULAR obstacle has arisen in the
way OF one of the marshals now taking
the census OF school-children of this city.
On calling at the house OF Mr.. and Mrs
Wheeler, 725 Twenty-sixth street, he
found little child for whom the lady OF
the house decl ned to give any name.
The marshal exhibited his authority and
told the lady that it was necessary she
should make a faithful return to m of
all he children in her house. He told her
of the necessity of knowing exactly how
many children there are in this city of
school age for the purpose Of getting full
allowance from the State. The unhappy
mars a. even went further and told Mrs.
Wheeler he was not sure that there might
not be an unpleasant penalty 10 be visited
upon any one VINO obstructed an officer of
such Importance as school census mar
shal.
Mr.. Wheeler told the officer a peculiar
story. Tine child" she said, "was
brought here a few months ago by its
mothers father. The reason it is here is
because OF the baseness and treacherv and
cowardice of young man who once m ade
a promise of marriage, but who disap-
peared when he should have fulfilled it.
The child has never been named, but its
father IS the ~ year OIu sen OF a Ca p ain
in the National Guard. He has no love
for il, and declared that sooner than carry
out his promise he would rather see the
little nameless in a foundlirg hospital.
"Its maintenance is provided by its
mothers father. and its own father will
do nothing fer II, because If he be forced
10 it would necessitae the revelation OF
the cret, and relying upon this, he
evsdes his responsibility. do not know
what 10 call the child. and l do not see
how any body can force me to give it a
name. II l am required to do so. shall
call It after it's father"

very probable that legal advice may be
sought on a technical point. The Census
Marshal on com pieting his duty Is re-
Qaired 10 take an oath that the returns he

Consequently ii may be necessary for

The young man had been introduced TO

Col. William n. MORRISON.

From the Charleston, W. Va, Gazette
It / s reported in Washington that Presi-
dent Mckinley intends to retire Williant
r. Morrison from the Interstate CONNER ce
Commission, at the expiration Of his pres
ent term IN January next. The Interstate
Commerce Commission is non-partisan
body with functions largely judicial, and
up to this time, its membership, on the
whoIe has been highly respectable.
william R. Morrison has been "a member
of the commission since its organization,
and has been its president since the re-
tirement OF Judge T. NJ Cooley. He is Il
mali OF tie highest character, public and
private. IT is not going too far to say
that he i $ one Of the most eminent men
in the country, and enjoys a unique posi-
ton in the respect and confidence of T1en
of all parties. His integrity is unas-
sahable, bis ability Of the first order, and
his knowledge OF the powers and duties
Of the Interstate Commerce Commission
farreaching and profound.
II Col. Morrison is not reappointed on
the commission when his present terUn
expires, it will mean that the President
has determined TO turn the commission
over to the railroad companies The
traffic managers long ago concluded that
Morrison could neither be seduced nor
bulldoZed-that his presence on the COM
mission was a bulwark against aggres-
sions by the railroads, and a sure guaran-
tee that the interstate commerce law
would be rigldly administered.
