DEED.
AN JOSE ESTATE INVOLVED
Grandson of CALIFORNIA; First Mexi-

Own Kin.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Jan. 3-The heirs of the
late Don Luis Arguello, the wealthy
Santa Claran who died on December 5
last, are fighting over their heritage. and
the preliminaries were taken to-day for a
long legal battle. This was in the shape
of a suit brought by Carlos ArguelIo, a
son, against James S. Arguello, his
brother, to have deed to the Luis block,
a valuable property on South First street,
near San Fernando, declared a deed of
trust and the property divided equally
between the two. The lana and building
are worth over $50 900.
The plaintiff alleges that on June g.,
1895, his father decided the property to
James to be held in trust during tesla
tors life, after which it was orally agreed
and understood James was to deed one
half TO his brother. Arguello senior was,
however, to enjoy the rents and income
of his place during life. Carlos Arguello
asserts that his brother has failed to
carry out this provision. Therefore he
and that the defendant be made to ac-
count for all the rents, which amount TO
$500 per month, since December 5.
Luis Arguello, who was the son of the
first Mexican Governor of California.
lived in this county for over sixty years
He was one of the best known citizens
and was q hospitable entertainer at his
home at Santa Clara until a few years
ago. The mother of his children died
some time ago and in 1895 ArgueIIo took
unto himself a young wife. When his
children learned of their fathers contern-
plated marriage there was a row in the
household, and in order to smooth things
over Arguello executed trust deeds for
certain pieces of property to certain chill
dren. At this time Arguello's fortune was
estimated at $25O,0OO. James, Marguerite
and Louisa We're given different pieces
of property on South First street Of the
value of about $4,000 each. Carlos, the
plaintiff in to-days suit, was ignored al
together.
Edelfrida G. Arguello, the young wife,
was given the California block on West
Santa Clara street and the homestead in
Santa Clara. At the time of Don Luis
death there was nothing to administer on
but about $500 worth of household furni-
ture and a little jewelry This was TO
be divided among the widow. Carlos and
one or two other children. A day or two
after the funeral the widow rushed into
court and obtained special letters of adj
ministration on this property.
1t is said Carlos Arguello will also ask
to have. the deeds given 20 the daugh-
tiers Louisa and Margarite set aside on the
same grounds as are set forth in the suit
against James.

no assistance could be rendered the I'M
fortunate man. After much difficulty the
lifeboats were launched and the steamer
abandoned First officer Griffin had
charge of one and Captain Erickson COM

in each boat. The boats were supplied
with water, meat and crackers, but the
latter were useless, as they soon became
wet
The boats were able to keep close to-

continued and but little Roadway could
be made toward land. The men suffered
terribly from cold, as they had saved
nothing from the sinking steamer but the
clothes they had on.
AS the boats pulled away the Protec-
ton was laboring in the heavy sea. She
still remained afloat during the half hour
before she was lost to view.
Captain Erickson and First officer Crit

separated after darkness set in and were
lost to view. The cold was intense, and
some of the men in Captain Erickson's
boat We're growing weak. During the
night the second officer fell overheard
from the boat and, being exhausted,
would have drowned had not Captain
Erickson saved him. He grasped the man

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The board. of

to examine into and report on the re-

of refrigerated beef of Swift & Co., which.

but decided that inasmuch as the pro-

ject to review they would not be made
public.
The board is instructed to ascertain if
proper effort was made TO feed this beef
to the troops at Porto Rico, and. fix the
responsibility in case proper effort was
not made to ascertain whether, as re-
ported in the testimony before the war
commission, the beef had been chemically

War Alger They intimate that the pro-
ceedings are not of great Importance, in
as to whether Swift & Co. should be paid
for the beef. Such q recommendation
however, necessarily involves the fixing
OF the responsibility for the rejection of
the beef.
The board decided to go into the investi-
cation extensively. All the records will
be carefully examined, witnesses will be
summoned and. wherever possible, affi-
davits will be obtained in support of testi-
mony. The board has no power to adj
minister oaths, and affidavits therefore
must be- voluntary. Representatives of
the Swift company undoubtedly will be
summoned, as will General Miles and,
other officers conversant with the facts.
but up TO a late hour this afternoon no
summons. as far as could be learned had
had reached General Miles.
The general of the army is very COM
placent over the matter. The $50 600
pounds of refrigerated beef arrived at
Ponce the very day the protocol was
signed. This amount of fresh meat il
is stated, would have supplied rations for
the American troops then on the island
for fifty days. But, it is alleged. had il.
been landed it could not have been kent
There was, barely enough ice in Ponce
to supply the hospitals. Our troops. save
ABOUT lO00 men, were scattered through
out the southern portion Of the island,
from Mayaguez to Guayania, distances
varying from % to 80 miles. Had the
beer been landed almost the entire GUAM
uty, the general of the army holds, must
inevitably have spoiled.
II is believed the work of the board will
consume the greater portion of two
weeks, possibly longer.

SANTA BARBARA, Jan. 3.-The pro-
tected cruiser Chitose, built by the
Union Iron Works of San Francisco for
the Japanese Government, has success
fully completed the most severe trial
to which she will. be subjected before
acceptance. She made a six hours run
over the course in Santa Barbara Chan
mel to-day, averaging 21.4S knots an
hour where but 205 are required, and
developing a maximum speed of 21.3S
under natural draught. This completes
her work in these waters and she Will
leave tonight or tomorrow for san
Francisco. But one test remainS-a
two hours run under forced draught, In
which she must average 22.5 knots-and
this will be made outside of the Golden
Gate. This test also has been practi-
cally completed, for the cruiser has
averaged 22.S67 on two separate occa-
siOns on run of over an hour each
time. The contract, however, requires
that the speed must be maintained for
two consecutive hours and the per-
Torrance will be repeated.
The members of the Japanese trial
board express satisfaction with the
Chitose in every particular, and say
that she has been accepted with the
one reservation of the forced draft test.
Scientific Expert w. r. Eckart of the
Union Iron Works stated that the data
had not been completely worked out
as to horse power and the efficiency of
the propeller, but that the indications
were that with less than 1875 revolutions
the ship would make 205 knots.
The evolution tests made to-day I'M
der full speed were successful. The
Chitose turned in radius of 300 feet,
and stopped from full Roadway to go
