ALL WILL End WELL
SENATOR WHITE Is SATISFIED
WITH HARBoR SITUATION
From Information Received He Be-
lieves the Chicago Contractors
Will Do the Work

Senator Stephen M. White can be relied
upon to watch jealously the interests Of the
people of this community regarding the San
Pedro harbor matter, and 1t will be their
own fault If all obstacles are not finally
overcome, though it is by no means certain
that any such now exist. The report that
the firm TO which the contract was awarded
has decided to abandon the undertaking
lacks confirmation. AS soon as the report
came to Mr. Whites ears he at once COM
menced to look up the situation. the result
of which is described in an interview with
a Herald representative yesterday:
yesterday, the 26th, for the first time
learned of the report that Heldmaier & Neu
had refused to comply with their contract
for the construction of the San Pedro break
water. At once 1 telegraphed to General
Wilson chief Of engineers, U. s. A.. inquir-
ing as to the validity of the assertion
received a reply to the effect that Major
Davis of the San Francisco office possessed
all of the data. Immediately telegraphed
to Major Davis, who replied that he had no
information that the lowest bidder had re-
fused the contract.
Under these circumstances 1t Is impossi-
bile for me to take further steps, bud If it,
SnOulQ appear tIdt tHc SOheAoSsN ="
whom the work has been awarded shall de-
cline to accept the same, will ascertain
as promptly as telegraphic dispatches can
dc II, the exact situation, and will insist
upon the next higher bid being accepted.
or a Reimbursement, as the legal situa-
ton shall demand. cannot believe that any
prominent contracting firm will play the
part of stool pigeon to Huntington ct al
The lowest bidder in the present case was
fully cognizant of the situation for months
past. The withdrawal Of bid after its
awarding Qf 1t has occurred) is demonstra-
tive of corruption, and shows that Mr..
Huntington's resources are many and vari-
Gus.

nothing until the facts appear, and then
they should act regardless of party or fac

Edward Marshall Is Getting Stronger

Edward Marshall, the heroic Journal cor
respondent who was dangerously wounded
during a charge OF the Rough Riders near
Santiago de Cuba, was resting quietly Tues
day. He is overjoyed to be at home again.
and, though suffering pain at intervals. is
on the high road to recovery and in excel
lent spirits. Mr.. Marshall was still too
weak Tuesday to receive any friends, but
his brother l. D. Marshall who paid him
brief visit and was gratif1ed to notice an
Improvement. In a day or two DR.. Rober;
Abbey. his physician, will try to locate the
bullet by the aid of X-rays, in order that 1t
may be extracted. His patient in the mean
time is keeping up the excellent nerve he
has shown all along. and is ready for the
operation when he thinks the doctors are
ready to go on with it. Dr. Abbey assured
Mr.. Marshall that ne would recover so far
that he would not be an invalid and would
not be kept to his bed for the rest of his
life. He is hopeful that he will ultimately
recover completely and be as strong rs
ever, but will not undertake to promise
this positively for some days yet. The pa
tents nerve and vitality will stand him in
good stead.
"He Is still a little weak from the effects
of the journey here" said Mrs. Weber, Mr.
Marshall's nurse, In talking of his condition,
"but his vitality seems unimpaired and his
voice is as clear as bell and as strong as
ever 1t could have been. OF course, he re-
quires great care yet and will require 1t for
some time, and he must not be excited

Uncle Sans Sailors Happy and Com
Portable at Manila

The plucky sailors on Uncle Sans ships
at Manila are not having such a bad time
of it, from their own accounts. letter
was received yesterday in this city from
Frank Gridley, a cousin of Police Clerk
Gridley, from which the following extracts
are taken:
Il suppose you are wondering what we
are doing and how we are getting along.
Well, we are doing nothing but eating
chicken, eggs, pineapples, bananas and
mangoes three times day, and smoke La
Insular' and Londres' cigars, sixteen for
five cents. There is not man in the fleet
but what could shoulder his rifle at mo-
ment's notice, which is pretty good for
1900 men.
THE insurgents and the Spanish SOL
diers on shore have been fighting every
day since we came here. The dead are
left on the field, but the wounded are taken
to the hospitals. The insurgents have
had the best of the fights all the way
through. They already have over two
thousand prisoners, including twenty Of
ficers.
Zone of the officers speaks our lingo
pretty well. 1 was with him alone for
half an hour this morning in the hospital
He said the Spanish soldiers were ready to
quit but that their officers kept them 60
ing. They d-n the queen and the king
and will only be too glad when Uncle
Sam takes possession of the islands. Some
of them are fine, big fellows, and If well
fed would make good soldiers. There are
a good many foreign war vessels in the
harbor, but all of them are friendly"

and arrived In San Francisco on July %.

WATER DEVELOPMENT
Searching for the Precious Liquid in
Redlands Valley

Water development is a theme Of univer-
sal interest this year. The lack of rain has
forced orchardists to extra effort in provid-
ing for their property. Professor c. G.
Baldwin of Claremont Is at work on sys-
tenn which, If 1t fulflls the expectations Of
himself and his engineers, will dota great
deal toward relieving the need in Redlands
valley. Professor Baldwin gave an inter-
esting account of his work to a Herald man
yesterday: I'VE are carrying on our de-
velopments in Mill Creek canyon above
Mentone. Geologically, that locality is a
valley about twenty miles long, filled now
with drift material. This valley Is BASIN
shaped, with 'lips" at either end formed
of stratifed rock, slopng at sharp angle
from the surface. About 1000 inches Of water
flows into this basin, while only tenth Of
that amount visibly escapes. Our belize
Is that there is large body Of stagnant
water at the bottom of the basin which can
be reached by tunneling through the rock;
and the undernow of the stream, which
must seep down through the qualifications
of the lower lip can be tapped by means Of
this same tunnel. The fall of the water will
be used to develop large amount Of cleo
trio power"

BONDS IN ADMIRALTY CASES
Schooners in Possession of Keepers at
San Pedro

Judge Wellborn made a ruling yesterday
that hereafter will compel plaintiffs in ad-
miralty cases to give bonds for costs. Here
tcfore in actions for libel this has not been
required, the vessel being considered good
for the costs. But as there is always pos
sibility of the craft putting out to sea, the
provision in the law allowing the court TO
exact a reasonable bond after commence
ment Of costs. Marshal Osborne put 1T to
the test in the case of Hari Hansen against
the brig Mary Gilbert
The schooners W. S. Phelps and Mary Gill
bert, against which ibels have been filed by
the crews, have had varying fortunes in the
carrying trade of the coast. They were
fitted up for Klondike boats by Mr. Purdy
of the Rock Island railroad and were soon
after sold to other parties who ran them
badly into debt. After passing into the pos
session of several different owners, they
finally went into the hands of a receiver at
q port in Washington.
They were then loaded with hay by the
seamen and brought to San Pedro presum-
ably to get out of the jurisdiction of the
Washington courts. The schooners are now
in charge of keepers at San Pedro and are
so legally entangled 1t will require the
United States courts to unravel the snarl.

vorce came up again In Judge Aliens court
yesterday. Some time ago the husband
sued for divorce on the grounds of cuelty

decided to settle the matter out of court,
and the defendant withdrew her complaint
upon certain conditions to which plaintiff
agreed.
1t seems that he failed to live up to those
conditions. so the wife appeared in court
yesterday, and made a motion to set aside
the dismissal and reopen the case. The
motion was denied. and it is now likely
that new suit will be filed.
