WANTS THE MONEY
w. H. Aldrich Dissatisfied With His
Fathers Will

SAN FRANCISCO. March s1-The
estate of William A. Aldrich, the capt.
talist, who died in Oakland in 1892, has
been dragged into the courts by son of
the decedent, william Holt Aldrich, who
seeks to set aside as invalid trust ere
ated in his fathers will.
Aldrich was once a member of the
firm of Merrill & Co., commission mer-
chants, dealing extensively in the Hon.
olulu trade. He left considerable prep
erty in stocks, bonds and real estate val
ued at upwards of 81, 900, 900. He divided
his estate into four parts, leaving the
contestants share in trust.
The testator seeks to set aside this
trust clause. He says that it is in viola,
tion of the constitutional law prohibit
ing the establishment of perpetuitles,
and he seeks a decree of court setting
aside the trust as invalid and declaring
him. the plaintiff, to be entitled to re-
ceive a full one-fourth share of his
fathers estate.

SHARP sCALPERs
Drive the Railroad to Refuse Excur-
sion Rates

sion Rates
SAN FRANCISCO, March s1.-The
Southern Pacific company has decided
to grant no more special rates to San
Francisco excursions. State organiza-
tions deseiring to hold conventions in
San Francisco, as has been their past
custom, Will not be afforded an oppor-
tunity of enjoying what is commonly
termed the Certificate plan" of trans
portation. Their delegates will have to
pay the regular round-trip fare.
The abandoning of the special excur-
sion rates, as applied to state conven-
tion parties, is the outcome OF the re-
fusal Of the board of supervisors to pass
an ordinance against the further main
tenance of scalpers' offices.
"The company" said one of General
Passenger Agent Goodman's represen-
tatives, has been badly treated in the
past by the manipulation of excursion
tickets by scalpers, and 1t has been
found necessary to call halt.
"The new rule applies only to business
directed to San Francisco, and in order
to get the benefit of special rates, or
ganizations which desire to hold con-
ventions may select some place outside
of San Francisco where transportation
privileges are not abused as they have
been in this city,"

the exception of Mr.. Newlands, for it.
Mr.. Hartman, Mr.. Jones of Washing
ton. Mr. Martin of North Carolina, Mr..
Shafroth of Colorado, Mr.. Shuford and
Mr.. Stroud of North Carolina, who did
not vote on the preceding votes, were
recorded in favor of the motion.
The roll call on the passage OF the
bill was then taken and followed with
interest. Not a break occurred in the
Republican ranks. Five Democrats
Messrs. Meyer, Brossard and Davey of
Louisiana and Kleberg and Slaydon of
Texas-voted with the majority. Mr..
Howard of Alabama was the only Popu-
list who voted for the bill. but twenty
one of the Populists, Fusionists and Sill
verites declined to record themselves
either way. Before announcing the re-
suit of the vote the speaker directed his

The Republicans applauded vigorous

result, Ayes 205, noes 122, absent and

cheered. The galleries Joined in the

BLEEDING FOR POISON.

"With his respiration but five in five
minutes we saved him.
The speaker was DIR. Albert ID. Black
burn, chief CT the medical staif at the
Presbyterian Hospital. The man referred
to had been brought there by the patrol
wagon several weeks ago nearly dead from
the effects of quantity of laudaDum
which he had swallowed with suicidal in
tent, but who now, thanks TO the sudden
thought or more likely, the inspiration
which seized Dr. BIack burn, when all the
usual methods were failing to restore con-
seriousness and death seemed but
moment TO linger, IL mighty glad that the
breath OF life still fingers in hs;breast.
"For hours we worked with him, con
tinued the doctor. 1--WE applied the
stomach pump, but the blood had absorb
cd tho poison. We tried other methods.
We worked assiduously, almost frantically
Reluctantly we were forced to acknowledge
that we could get no results, for the
patient sank lower and lower. We were
at our Wits ends.
suddenly that line of thought struck
me: That mans respiration is but five
in five minutes; he is practically dead.
The stomach pump will do no good, for
tho blood has absorbed tho poison and Is
pregnant with il. The only way TO get it
out of the system Is TO bleed him. 10 de-
prive him of the very essence OF life in
order To give him life Ihon / thought
blood is largely n saline solution; we can
prepare alike'solution with the proportions
tho same and inject this into the body TO
tako the place oi tho poison filled blood.
The body will do tho rest il will nssimi-
late the solution and make 10 blood.
1.-THE chance was a desperate one. but
the circumstances called for it. So we
blvd the man. and the two pints which we
let out were as black as ink, so pregnant
WITH the poison was It, Quickly we in.
iected an equal quantity of the saline
solution; then with our anxiety at high
tension we stood around To watch and
await results
"On,e we thought we detected slight
increase of respiration, but wo dared not
trust too much. A few minutes later we
wero sure of it, SlowlNhe respiration
began To rise and slowly but surely the
organs began 90 once more resume their
functions still we watched, fearing n
relapse. None came
"Then, at last. the man was out OF
danger. EHe stayed under our care for n
few days and when we sent him away
he had totally recovered from the effects
OF the poison which he had put into mis-
system. Today no Is q hale and hearty
man."
IL is highly probable that this method
of overcoming poison is novel one. No
one seems Co know of any like instance.
At least, several reputable physicians of
this city, when seen yesterday, said that
no case of similar nature had ever come
under their notice, nor were they aware
that suoh % method had ever Teen applied
