IN MEMORY OF WILL SNOW.
Resolutions of Sorrow Adopted b.
the Call Local Staff.

At a meeting of The Call local staff,
held yesterday afternoon, a committee
was appointed to draft resolutions Of sor-
row and respect in memory of VIII A
Snow, who was drowned in the bay Tues
day night while in the line of his duty as
a reporter for the Chronicle. The commit.
tee reported the following, which was
adopted and ordered sent to the city edi-
tor and local staff of the Chronicle
In memory Of one of their brothers cut off
In his prime in the pursuit Of his profession
the members of The Call editorial staff take
this occasion 10 testify their sorrow at the
death Of VIII A. Snow, late of the Chronicle
cisco. To every one of them his loss is keenly
felt and strlkingly brought home. Out of the
backness of night the hand of death has
reached into their midst and pulled him down:
and, with their feeling of sorrow, is one of
the inscrutabiity of that choice To every one
OF them he was more than the fellow worker,
more than the occasional friend A compara-
tive recruit to the journalistic ranks, he had
already more than passing praise for his
worth His honor was unquestioned his ability
and faithfulness and success in his calling were
not only acknowledged. but commented upon
His life was an open book in which there ap-
peared to be many leaves still to be written
That book has been closed His soul has
winged its way from the waters that may
never yield his body but sorrow for his fate
will ever dwell in the hearts Of those that
knew him.
To the bereaved parents the members of The
Call editorial staff extend their sympathy: to
that he might become of its noblest work
ers they give that unobtrusive clasp of the
hand that testifes deep grief. For themselves
they bow their heads in his memory.

sell her and after the sale was consum-
mated the trouble began.
1.-The Emma was not for sale" said
George L. Roland yesterday, but Davie
came to us with letter and said he had
a good offer for the old boat from Stock
ton parties. 1 did not want to let her
go at the figure, but Johnson and Frank
Davie thought it would be as well to let
her go and get a better boat. | gave in
and the money was paid over by Davie.
With his share, Johnson paid d. for his us in
terest in the Mount Eden, While Frank
Davie took his and retired. Soon after
this I heard rumors about another line
in opposition to ours, so began to make
inquiries. l found that the Emma had
not gone to Stockton, and on looking up
the records in the Custom-house found
she was in the name of John l.. DaVie.
Then | found that DaVie was trying to
get our berth in Oakland Creek. so l
thought it was about time to act. | mott
fed Davie that his option on third in
terest in the, Mount Eden would be re-
pudiated, and that his services as man
ager of the Davie freight and express
line were no longer required.
''Davle retaliated by telling me that he
would lay claim to our berth on the San
Francisco water front and to our ONCE
in the Clay street bulkhead. Yesterday
he sent linemen down to put telephone
son threw them out. Thinking he might
attempt to run the Emma into our SHp,
went before the Harbor COmmlsSloneTS
to-day and they told me DaX1e could noI
have the Mount Edens berth, but would
be accommodated elsewhere. We had a
contract to carry $50 barrels of cement
from San Francisco to Oakland, but Dayie
took the stuff aboard the Emma and de-
livered it. However, we will let that pass,
but Davie has now nothing whatever to
do with the Davie freight and express
line.
Hugh S. Dimond now has an option
on the line. and if the deal goes through
a new company will be incorporated with
Mr. Dimond at the head of it. A larger
and faster steamer will be added to the
fleet, as the amount OF business we are
now doing demands. it. Captain John
son and / will remain with the venture
and l don't think Davies opposition will
do us much harm. He threatens us with
injunctions and all kinds of evil but so
far we have checkmated him and are sat-
isfied'
