ACCOUNT TO BE STATED.
Justice Stafford's Decision in Ander-
Son-Sauds Case

The account of Francis P. B. Sands as to
the management OF the estate of the late
Emile A Sands, his first wife Will be
stated by the auditor of the District Su-
preme Court, according to the decision of
Justice Stafford, rendered late yesterday In
Equity Court No. 2. The estate is said to
be valued at more than 100000
Mr.. Sands Is being sued by his daughter.
Mrs. Henrietta Sands Anderson. Mrs. An
derson In her bill claimed that Mr.. Sands
had exceeded his powers and had under
taken improperly to mortgage q portion of
the estate, and had sold other nortions
thereof, and had not complied with the re-
quirements of the will touching the REIN
vestment OF proceeds of such sales
Justice Stafford In his opinion declares
that under the testimony Mrs Anderson
was fully justified in bringing suit. The
accounting rendered to her and subse-
Quentiy to the court the justice declared
was unsatisfactory. and he suggested that
an accurate and detailed account should
have been kept by the defendant
The powers conferred by the will are dis
cEssed at length, the court holding that as
a trustee OF the estate the defendant. Fran
els p b. Sands, had power to sell and dis
pose of the body of the estate only to the
extent of properly preserving it, and that
II was necessary for him to reinvest and
hold upon like trusts the proceeds from
any sale. The court also held that neither
trustee nor a life tenant under the cir
curnstances presented by the case is en-
titled to charge against the principal OF
the estate any expenses incurred in the
maintenance or education of the children.
or remaindermen, Unless 1t be clearly
proved that the defendants income was
insufficient for-such purpose. and then the
principal can only be resorted to to the
extent of such deficiency. The prayer of
the complainant as to having the cause
referred to the auditor of the court for q
full accounting from the defendant of his
entire management of the estate and dis
position OF any portions of the principal
thereof was granted, and by a provisional
decree signed the case is sent to the audi
tor for such accounting In accordance with
the findings get forth in the opinion.
The court also said that money expended
in the education of the children could not
be considered as money invested

Excursions to the Delegates.
The Brazilian government undoubtedly
will arrange some excursions for the PAN
American delegates, but the limited time
will be something of a check to seeing
much of the country. The delegates. for
instance, will hardly get up into the ANA
zon rubber country, since that would take
them about three weeks on the fastest ves-
sci that could be obtained. On their way
down they may learn something of the dia-
mond fields If they stop long enough at
Bahia, but they will hardly do more than
go ashore and see this black metropolis,
for the very large proportion Of the inhabi-
tants are negroes, The diamond fields are
scattered over a large area and more can
be learned about them at Tiffany's than at
Bahia. Nevertheless. some people think
that the Brazilian diamonds are picked up
like pebbles along the beach.
Brazil has a very good system of rail-
ways out of Rio Janeiro. and 1t may be
that something of the country will be seen
by taking the line from Rio to Sac Paulo.
Sac Paulo is the capital of the chief cof-
fee producing state. and is the most mod
ern and progressive city in Brazil 1t was
the first to install electric lighting and
trolleys and the Canadians who did that
work made a great deal of money.
The railroad route from Rio to Sac Paulo
is pretty dusty one, and the chances
are that the water courses will be fol-
lowed to Santos. which was the pioneer
Brazilian port in banishing yellow fever by
establishing splendid system of quays and
wharfs that enabled the harbor to be clean
ed out. Santos itself is picturesque place.
but the real picturesqueness is the ride up
the cog railway, distance of fifty miles
to Sac Paulo.
1t is not likely that the Pan-Americans
will get into southern Brazil, though 1t
Rio Grande de Sol and Santa Catharine,
the states which were the seats of Ger
man immigration. and which have devel-
oped blended Brazilian-German national
ity, with the Brazilian patriotism predomi-
nant.
If the delegates on their way down could
go I'D the Amazon for the 1900 miles Of
Brazilian territory in which that mighty
river is navigable and then, after their
sessions at Rio. take the ship down to
Buenos Ayres and follow the Plate and
Paraguay rivers until they are again in
Brazilian territory in the state of Matte
Crosse, they would be able to obtain some
conception of the vastness of Brazil. The
Brazilian constitution hxed the future capf-
tai away off in the interior on the plateau
of Goyaz This showed confidence in the
ultimate development of the country. But
while the place was fixed no provision was
made for removal. and Rio is likely to con-
tinue the capital of Brazil for another
century or two.

WISCONSIN STUDENTS
QUIT RADICAL MOVES
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Madison, Wis, April Sin a large. enthu-
siasttc mass meeting 700 students of the Uni
versity of Wisconsin met In Library hall last
night and entered protest to the faculty
against the proposed abolition of football. The
meeting was most conservative in its nature,
and none OF the radcalism that has character
lied the action of the students late crept into
the spirit Of the meeting. Thomas Mahen, Ira
Cross. Edward Mcmahon, Ralph Hetzel and Otto
Kowalke spoke for the students
The general sentiment that prevailed was that
only the most sane action on the part of the
students would save the game of football to the
university. Resolutions passed will be presented
to the faculty when it meets to decide the fate
of the gridiron sport.
The purport Of the resolutions was that foot
ball Is necessity to the university in maintain
ing college spirit, and that the students wish
the game to be maintained, matter under
what conditions.

Journal Special Service.
Chicago, April By reason of the bad wealth.
er this spring it is estimated that the sixteen
major league baseball clubs have lost at least
$3.50, 900, and the southern training trips have
been little else. so far as the magnates are con-
cerned, then a chance to spend their profits of
last season by giving their players @tolerably
pleasant jaunt thruout the land Of cotton.
8 This is the estimate Of President Charles
A. Comiskey of the Chicago American league
club after a mental survey Of the situation and
few calculations based on the reports from
the training centers in the daily papers,
The spring OF 1905 will long be known as the
most disastrous training year in baseball his
tory and this condition Is emphasized because
practically every of the sixteen clubs in the
American and National leagues sought the south
to prepare for the seasons grind and incidentally
to pick up training expenses thru exhibition
games -
Il As the method nowadays is to depend largely
on outdoor work for the conditioning process
Of ballplayer rather than gymnasium, 1t
is generally believed that the men of both
leagues will not be In the same shape next week
that they we're last year and previous seasons
