TRANsPACIFIC FREIGHT RATES.
California & Oriental Given Same
Terms as Japanese Line.

SAN FRANCISCO, May AT today's
session OF the transpacihc conference Il
was decided that the proposition to pool
and divide the incoming freight tonnage
from the Orient was inadvisable. II was
decided not 20 disturb the present rate OF
81 on 100 pounds Of silk. Hitherto the
Nippon Yusen kaisha, which is the ocean

than the other companies on the 100
pounds OF silk. the rate being So. Early IN
the conference Vice President Morton. OF
the Santa Fe. demanded the same rates
as those enjoyed by the japanese line
for the California & Oriental Steamship
Company. the ocean connection of his
road. He declared that the santa Fe was
willing 20 maintain equal rates. but II
the Nippon Yusen kaisha was allowed
diTerential his company should be given
the same privilege. After long delibera-
tIon the officials decided TO put the Nip
pom Yusen Kaisha and the California &
Oriental on an equal footing.

sion The various steamship companies.
with their ran connections, now expect 20
reap big harvest from the expanding
trade OF the Orient. as they VIII not be
hampercd by disastrous rate cutting. The
rates as formulated are greater than those

those OF two years ago. Passenger rates

the local agents of the steamship lines.
The mrs; meeting viii be held tomorrow
by the agents. They are now discussing
steerage rates which, II Is claimed. are
considerably lower from the Orient to

It's Coming is Looked Forward TO
With Both Joy and Fear and its
Safe Arrival is Hailed With
Pride and Delight by All.

The arrival of the first baby In the
household is the happiest and most i'm
portant event of married life. The young
wife who is to become mother delights
to think of the happiness in store for her
when the little one shall nestle upon her
breast and latterly she shall hear it lisp
the sweet and holy name, "mother."
But her happy anticipation quickly van
ishes when she realizes the terrible pain
and suffering through which she must
pass while bringing the little one into
the world. An indescribable fear OF the
danger attendant upon the ordeal soon
iissipates her joyfulness. ~ .
Thousands of women have learned
by experience that there is absolutely
no necessity for the sufferings which at
tend childbirth; they know that by
the use of 'Mother's Friends scien-
sific lininseHt-for few weeks before
the trying hour, expectant mothers can
10 prepare themselves for the final
hour that the pain and suffering OF the
ireaded event are entirely obviated and
kis safely passed through with COM
,aratively little discomfort.
All women are interested, ana es-
,ecially expectant mothers who for the
irst time have to undergo this trial, in
,uch remedy f; for they know the pain
md suffering, to say nothing of the dan
zen, which is in store for them. Moth
