VANCOUVER, B. c., Aug. 2s.-The
Babine River Indians. whose haunts are
near the headwaters of the Skeena
River, have revolted and the rising is
of such a serious nature as to have
compelled a call for the militia The
authorities on the Skeena River are
declared TO be utterly unable to cope
with the situation and it is stated that
unless force of militia is rushed north
with all possible dispatch there Is grave
danger that murder may be done
News Of the outbreak among the In
dians was received here by the Fraser

afternoon. 1t is declared that a force
of not less than 100 militiamen is abso-
lutely essential TO the preservation of
peace on the Babine and no smaller
body of men wfll-be able TO effect the
arrest Of the Indians, who have become
terribly excited.
The failure OF the police authorities
TO capture the Indians who recently

Philadelphia Failure
AT WOKR

PHILADELPHIA, Aug 29.-Receiver
George R. Earle, Jr., today took
charge of the affairs of the Real Es-
tate Trust Company which yesterday
failed, because of the heavy loans made
by Frank H Nipple, late president. to
Adolf Segal, the promoter, upon insult
ficient security. Until Earle completes
his Investigations the exact condition
of the company's affairs cannot be told
The receiver, however, expressed the
belief that the trust funds were intact.
John H. Converse, a director of the
company and one of the foremost
Presbyterian Iaymen in the country.
upon whose petition the receiver was
appointed, today said he was satisfied
that the securities of the various Pres
byterian church boards are safe. The
Presbyterian Hospital, of which Nipple
was treasurer, today elected the Fidel-
ity Trust Company as his successor,
and through the concern learned that
the institutions securities, amounting
to S1,500,000 were intact.
While it is believed that the secur-
tiles of the board of trustees of the
General Assembly were equally safe, 1t
will be necessary 20 elect a new treas
urer before the fact can be determined.
1t developed today that Hipple had
on deposit for various Presbyterian
church organizations s150.000 in cash.
Included in this was the sum OF s10.-
600 deposited by the Woman's Foreign
Mission Society to be used in rebuild
ing the home for rescued Chinese
slave girls IN San Francisco, destroyed
by the earthquake.

late president who is clerk in the
bank, was set upon by a crowd Of
angry depositors as he was leaving the
building today, and would probably

the finance committee passed up The
number OF claims is about 1000 and
the total amount in the neighborhood

The task OF the new committee will

complicated cases arising out OF the
seizure Of goods during the IRE. 1t Is
instructed by the corporation TO allow
claims only for food. medicine. fuel.
clothing and shelter. The demands
come chiefly from transportation com
panies for the conhscation OF freight
on the wharves and IN the railroad
yards There are also several large
bills for lumber taken from yards and
piles on lots where buildings were in
course OF erection. These seizures were
made without authority and IL Is a
difficult matter TO ascertain who were
responsible for them. or what became
OF the goods and materials. Chairman
Phelan has called upon highly repre-
sentative citizens for the dificult un-
dertaking Of adjusting the claims.
The rejected liquor claims will not
be taken up by the new body. as had
been hoped by the saloon men

ESTIMATES BEING MADE
FOR LAST OF CANAL PLANT
Commission Finds That sz5,oO0,Oo0 Can
Be Expended JudiciOusIy Each
Year in Construction.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2s.-Estimates
for canal appropriations for 1907 are
now in course Of preparation at the
Office OF the Isthmian Canal Commits
sion From present indications these
estimates will be about the last to be
made for what Is known as the canal
plant It is believed that all OF the
locomotives. fiat cars, dredges, steam
shovels and other equipment will be
assembled on the isthmus by the end
OF 1907 that will be needed for the
entire period Of canal construction.
1t IS said at the commission head
quarters that s25,0oO.O0O can be ex-
pended each year judiciously, but with
the continually enlarging plant a
greater proportion of this money will
be used in the employment of labor,
resulting in much better showing in
actual canal digging.

Ruling Shuts Out Inter
esting Secret in the
Life of Bertha Dolbeer
CONTEST OF WILL

Love affairs, calls of friends and per-
haps stray acquaintances. society du-
ties. and in fact the entire history of
Bertha NJ Dolbeer. from the time Eta
Marian Warren entered into her life up
to the death of the unfortunate heiress
in New York City in 1904, covering a
period of sixteen years, were probed
into at the hearing of the Horatio
Schander contest of the will by which
Eta Warren became the chief legatee
of the will, yesterday
1t was review of life's history, with
names of friends and callers. many of
whom constitute the society of San
Francisco today. added spice. 1t
was admitted also that Miss Dolbeer
may have had a love affair ten years
ago. The curious minded bent forward
to catch the name of the lover from
Miss Warren's lips. 1t was not forth
coming. Judge Coffey sustained an OBJ
lection that the name of any suitors
Bertha Dolbeer may have had in days
gone by would have no bearing upon
her sanity or whether she was unduly
influenced in willing her property away
from blood relatives
PROMINENT SOCIETY NAMES.
Such names as those of Reddick
Deperu, William Wilton Carson and his
brother; the Tobin brothers. Glenn and
Ed; Addison Mizner, kin to the more
famous Wilson Miner of Mrs. Yerkes
fame; Peter and Walter Martin and
Frank Good-aI1 these figured either
childhood friends of the deceased or
callers upon her at the Palace Hotel
when John Dolbeer, his daughter and
her companion, Miss Warren. returned
from their first European trip.
Miss Warren was on the stand during
the entire day. and when an adjourn
ment was called in the afternoon D. G.
de Cola, for the contestant, had not
finished with the examination. The
witness started with an account of her
life from the time she was born in
Timbuctoo, Yuba County. up through
her own school days, until finally she
had related all of the characteristics Of
Bertha Dolbeer, to whom she was q
companion. She testified that she was
employed to teach the Dolbeer children
and supervise the house. She denied
that her relations with John Dolbeer
were more intimate than that of an
employe. and said that in her opinion
Bertha was like any other child, espe-
cially fond of outdoor exercise
The contestant is endeavoring to
prove that Eta Marian Warren used
undue influence with Bertha Dolbeer
in order to be made heir to the estate.
1t was with a view OF showing her re-
lations that the questions were asked
as to the friends that. Miss Dolbeer
made and her love affairs
NAME OF LOVER WITHHELD.
1t was after admitting that Bertha
had one love affair and the name OF the
lover was withheld that De Cola
turned his batteries on the witness.
rs it not true" he asked. that you
were we'll acquainted with William
Wilton Carson?"
No, sir"
"Is 1t not true that your friendship
with Carson caused an estrangement
between yourself and Miss Dolbeer?"
mo, sir"
Did not Miss Dolbeer expect to mar
ry Carson?"
Not so far az I@know."
There was an amusing clash between
