A meeting of the board of directors of
the Manufacturers and Prod ucers' Asso-
citation was held in tho Mills building last

At the outset the president stated that
Mr.. Green of the American Condensed
Milk Company. who was member of the
associa. ton, believed that the chemist of

error in making an analysis OF his product
and wished a committee of the body, in
con junction with a representative of the

ated twelve miles from San Rafael, and
see the process Of condensing the milk
and the kind used.

Mr.. Sonntag then expressed his regrets
that he could not act as president for the
ensuing term, despite a unanimous re-
quest, on account of his private affairs
monopolizing his time.
Every me emb ber arose in turn and ear
nestIy requested Mr.. Sonntag TO reconsider
his decision. their remarks being to the
eff, CT that he could not be spared.
At the conclusion of his remarks, which
were applauded, Mr.. Kerr offered a reso-
luton that the directors of Mr.. Sonnta , s
company be petitioned to grant him the
time necessary to retain his position as
president. 1t was adopted unanimously.
A final decision was reached that the
call for the Pure Food Congress be made

Fung Tu7ag hands Mission,

WASHINGTON, D. c.. March 1L.-rhe
very limited Chinese colony in Washing
ton is somewhat excited tonight because
of the knowledge that has reached that
element of Washington society that
Fung Yung Hand, Chinese Consul Gen.
eral. stationed at San Francisco, is in the
city. His mission is the subject OF various
surmises, but the fact is outside of dispute
that his idea was in reference to the local
"hig binder" troubles that recently ex-
tended TO fatal results in San Francisco.
The Consul-GeneraI called upon the
Chinese Minister to-day, but whatever the
result of the audience was. 1T is shrouded

ONCE BRILLIANT LAWYER,
BROKEN DOWN IN HEALTH,
ENDED HIS DAYS IN THE della
WARE STATE HOSPITAL FOR
THE INSANE.
After suffering with mental trouble
for many months Henry G. Turner, at
ono time one of the brightest and most
popular members OF the New Castle
bar. died yesterday at Delaware Stale
Hospital at Farnhurst. to which he was
admitted last June. For several years
his impaired eyeslght and weakened
mental faculties prevented him from
practiclng the profession Of his choice,
and in which he for many years dis
tinguished himself. His last notable
mental effort was writing a book en-
titled "a Modern Political Boss or
Government by Proxy" a study from
nature. intended for perusal by politi-
clans generally 1t was local I'm It's

Mr.. Turner was born in this city in
| 1S49, and was the adopted son of
Brooke Turner, the proprietor of the
/
q great admiror Of Henry Clay and
named his adopted son in honor Of the
| great statesman. The youth attended
the public schools of the city and fin
ished his education at ST. Mary's Col
lege here when It was located on Della
ware avenue. After completing his
schooling Mr.. Turner entered the law
office OF Chief Justice Charles b. Lore
and studied law, being admitted to the
bar in 1876.
While a school boy the deceased join
ed the army, being but 16 years OF age.
and so anxious was he to serve his
country that ne made It a special point
TO convince the examining officer that
he was Old enough to go to the war Az
ter his return from the war he re-
sumed his studies. He formed law
, partnership with Harry Sharpley in
1875, but It continued but a few years
although both men had n strong affec.
tion and love for each other. Mr.
Sharpley died a number OF years ago
and Mr.. Turner was greatly affected by
3 his death

made speeches for that organization II
