SHIPPED MAN IN A BOX.
German Found Half Dying in Hold

German Found Half Dying in Hold
of Atlantic Liner.
New York, Dec. 2.-When a long
shoreman to-day dropped into the hold
of the steamer Palatia of the Ham
burg American Line, just arrived at
the Hoboken docks. he was startled to
hear a weak voice call for water. Then
he heard means. Summoning assist
ance he made a search and found a
man lying across some salt sacks. The
man is tonight at a hospital with lit
tie chance of recovery.
Investigation shows that the stranger
had been boxed up in Germany in a
packing case marked u. B. H." In the
case was a small bottle which had con-
tanned whisky and also some crumbs
of bread. A piece of paper was found
marked, John Beck" The box was
marked in German: This side uI
with care" There were no airholes in
the case, and the hatch to the hold
had not been opened from the time
the Palatia left port until to-day.
The man was well dressed evidently
German, about 80 years old. He had
less than a dollar in German money
in his pockets. Up to the present the
consignee or consignor of the case has
not been discovered. Yesterday and
wagon called for box marked as this
one, and 1t is believed that through
this circumstance something more may
ne learned of the strange affir. 1t is
believed the man was in the hold at
least fifteen DAVIS

OTHERS INSIST ON FORCING THE
QUESTION.

The Subject Injected Into Pam
American Bank Discussion ana
Some Warm Remarks Exchanged.
senior Martinez of Chilli Denounces
the Introduction of the Subject.
senior Bacz of Paraguay Declares
for Universal and Compulsory Ar
bitrntiOn Among American Ma
tiOns.
City of Mexico. Dec. 2.-The order
of to-day's session of the Pan-Ameri-
can Conference called for a discussion
OF the projects for a Pan-American
bank and the exchange of official pub
locations, but at the opening of the
session Mr.. Baez of Paraguay, took
the floor and made a speech advocating
comprehensive scheme of arbitra-
ton.
At its conclusion Mr.. Matte of Chilli
arose and said that he thought it would
be better for the conference to con-
fine itself to the order of the day in
stead of listening to mere accidental
discussions
Mr.. Bermeio of Argentine, when he
arose to report on the project for the
Pan-American Bank, took exception to
Mr.. Mates remark.
The Gillian delegation offered an
amendment to the effect that interest
ed governments give the proposed bank
a subsidy of 100000 gold per annum
for five years to start with, to be con-
tributed according to population by the
several countries. The project was re-
ferred back to the committee with this
amendment. The project for the ex-
change of publications was also re-
ferred back to the committee with al,
unimportant amendment. The session
was about to adjourn when Senior
walker Martinez of Chilli, sprang to
MS feet and made a fiery speech de-
nouncing what he called the prema-
ture introduction of the subject of ar
bitration.
Senior Martinez occupies a desk d.
rectly opposite that of Senior Baez and
most of his speech seemed personally
directed at Baez. who. however, re-
NAMED unconcerned.
The Peruvians took no part in the
debate.
This Was Very Different.
Last night Senior Bello Codocido. min
lster ana delegate of Chill to the con-
LSleHcS. gave a d1nner at the Gillian
delegation. at which Alberto Elnore
one of the Peruvian delegates. and his
daughter, were among the guests, and
Mr.. Codocido made a speech in which
he drank to the prosperity of Peru and
was answered in cordial terms by
Senior Gilmore. who proposed the pros
perity of Chill.
Delegate Baez of Paraguay. in
speech before the conference, said that
the Monroe doctrine only protected
American nations from European ae-
gression. What was needed was an
other doctrine to protect them from
aggression on the part of each other.
This desideratum had been supplied
by the Diaz doctrine recently enunci-
ated by Senior Chavero at the banquet
given by the Mexican delegation in
honor of their colleagues. The basis
of the Diaz doctrine. he said, is peace.
but peace can only be assured through
justice and justice can only be assured
through arbitration. Therefore, said
Senior Baez 1t is necessary to proclaim
compulsory and universal arbitration
as the basis of the International law Of
the Americans

The Opposition Is strong and Bit
ter--American Competition TO Cut
Large Figure in the Discussion.
Berlin, Dec. Count Won Buelow,
the imperial chancellor, in introducing
the greatest parliamentary struggle
that Germany has ever faced-the de-
bate over the tariff bill--counselled the
members of the Reichstag to modera-
ton of language. declaring that the
eyes of the world were upon them.
Although this was Germany's affair.
said Count Won Buelow, it was neces-
sary to maintain a resolute front to
the other nations of the world, The
tariff experiences of the Uaited States.

ton, constitute rich mines for argu-

Every individual small interest
throughout Germany that is adversely

While the government is aware of

ment is so pledged to the Agrarian

measure, that it feels ii cannot recede
therefrom or postpone it's considera-

Murder and Retribution.

The Gardnerville Record of Douglas
county, Nevada, gives the following &C
count of the latest escapade of the
famous Indian outlaw:
hanged for the murder of young viii
Dangberg, has added another victim to
his list of crimes, this time, his own
father-in law, who has harbored him
for the past year.
Pete entered the camp of old Monitor
George, near Woodtord's, last Sunday
night, and asked for his mahala. The
old man promptly ordered him away.
Pete raised his Winchester rifle and
shot the old man, causing almost in
slant death. The old mahala, in at
tempting to interfere, was battered
over the head with the stock of the
rifle, and left for dead
CONSERVATION struck the Indians in
and about WOodfOrd's, who hurried to
the stores for firearms and ammunition.
1t is thought that the fugitive will now
be captured or killed, as the Indians
are afraid to harbor the murderous
outlaw any longer.
AS result of his last murder, the
Indians held consultation, and Pete's
own brother was chosen to mete out
punishment to the man. Tuesday he
found his man in. his hiding place in
Alpine county, and shot him to death.

of the changes attempted to be
made related to the publication of
notice to creditors in probate cases.
Claims had to be presented to the
clerk of the court instead of the ad-
ministrator. 1t is now probable
that new publications will have to
be made in all estates where the new
codes were followed. The laws re-
lating to the disqualification of
Judges, making it felony for a
notary to indorse an acknowledge
ment or oath on a document in the
absence of the party executing the
same, and authorizing police judges

THE NEW CODES INVALID.

California is having a hard time in
its endeavor TO recodify it's laws.
Up to 1873 we had no codes. The
laws of the state we're embraced in
the statutes passed at the various
sessions of the legislature. In 1873,
Greed Raymond, John c. Burch and
C. Lindley were appointed code
commissioners, and without much
ado or expense wrote our present
codes, which were adopted by the
legislature. In 1895 Governor Budd
appointed Messrs. Wallace, Baldwin
and another to revise the codes.
This commission served two years,
drew $24, 600 for their services, $16,-
900 for expenses, and accomplished
nothing. Two years later, Messrs.
Bulla, Caminetti and Shanahan were
appointed. They served two years
at a like expense, but failed to get
the legislature to adopt their work.
In 1899 Governor Gage appointed
Messrs. Van Fleet, Freeman and
Dennis. They wrote a set of code
amendments, which were adopted
by the legislature, but which have
been declared invalid by the supreme
court. The point upon which the
court has knocked out the new codes
is that the legislature in passing the
amendments failed to comply with
section "a of the constitution, which
provides that mo law shall be re-
vised or amended by reference to its
title, but in such case the act re-
vised or section amended shall be
reenacted and published at length
as revised or amended" The law
makers bumped up against this
plain constitutional requirement,
and hence the result. 1t is q mis-
take to say that the entire work of
the commissioners has been rendered
abortive by this decision. If the
commissioners have done their work
wisely and well in revising and re-
arranging the codes, their work can
be utilized by the next legislature in
passing an act in conformity with
the constitution and the supreme
courts Interpretation. Tt delays the
adoption of the amendments, but
does not wipe out the labors of the
commissioners.
The decision is far reaching. One

Another Snake Story.

In its latest issue the Calaveras
Chronicle tells about a ''snake in a
cart wheel" The writer of that
journal says:
Mrs. A. F. Gourley of Pine Grove,
while on her way to Valley Springs in
a cart, heard the rattle of snake.
The horse was walking slowly, and
while she could tell from the sound
that the snake was close, she was I'M
able to locate it until she glanced at
one of the cart wheels, and there she
saw wriggling among the spokes, near
the hub, huge RATHER fully four feet
in length. She struck the horse,
and the rapid revolution of the wheel
threw the reptile Off The wheel had
probably passed over it and it coiled
around the spokes and was no doubt
carried around many times before it
was noticed by Mrs. Gourley.
