Southern California called lied, and IN, j, left ,on
pthe success of the etonterIsrias.-ss-asas--
Thus they came, all day long yester-
day. Some of the sums pledged were
large and some were small, but all be-
tokened the hold the Y w. G. A. has
on the affections of great many people
in Los Angeles and the interest they
have in seeing the institution IN
building worthy of the scope of the
work. Several business men among the
callers merely asked for the blank
pledges and went away, leaving the
committeewomen to indulge in some
very Measurable speculation as to what
thew wanted with those pledges.
Letter geturns Come In
Returns from the letter canvass be-
pan coming a yesterday and by noon
$1,000 that hal come by post was added
to the fund.
G o'clock it was found that the fund had
nassed th6three-q quarter mark and the
clock in he court registered $114,41S.
On this, he last day, the minute hand
must trssel faster than it has any day
of the months campaign, so that at
middght it may point to twelve, which
mans that $35,5S2 should be secured to-

4 One Of the $1,000 women who gave
4 her pledge several days ago under the
name of "a Friend" has become known
to the committee. She is Mrs. Clara r.
Shatto. who hoped to have her identity
kept secret, but she was finally pre-
vailed upon to saffow her name to be-
come public.
Five dollars was given to the fund
yesterday by J. Wallace in the name
ofRuth Gray Wallace. Ruth is t one
month old and the first and only child
of her fond father, who Is looking far
ahead into the future for her. He said
he wants his little daughter to be inter-
ested IN the sort of work the Y. w. C. A.
is doing.
Trial Day at Hand
Many are interested In the part of the
business girls of the association have
been playing in the campaign. So far
$2S49.6O has been turned in by them as
their individual contribution to the fund
aud $1775 as the total they have secured

$4,000 given them by Mrs. Hook, brings

CAPTAIN SWIFTs TRIAL ENDS.
That of Lieutenant Yarnell, Also of
 BattIeship Connecticut, Concluded.

Fort Monroe, Va, March 29.-The trials by court-martial of Captain Will liam Swift and Lieutenant Harry E. Yarnell on charges of neglect of duty in allowing the battleship Connecticut to run aground on entering Culebra harbor on January 12 were concluded to-day. Upon the case of Captain Swift being completed, that of Lieuten- ant Yarnell was taken up and occupied but short time.
 All of the witnesses in the case have testified that the two officers were at their posts of duty, and did their whole duty in bringing the ship into the mar Dor, and that every precaution was used to hold the ship on her course. That she got off her course sufficiently to graze the submerged rock, 1t was stated, must have been due to irregu- larities of the engines, the revolutions of the port and starboard propellers being different, and the natural diffi- culty in steering battleship in shoal water, where tidal effects are strong.
 None of the members of the court would make @ statement as to the pro bable findings The courts report will be forwarded to Washington, and will be given out by the navy department after being reviewed.

YESTERDAY AN IDEAL DAY
HOW GOOD FRIDAY WAS OB-
 SERVED IN NEW HAVEN

Churches Well Attended in the Morn
 ing-Big Crowds From Out of Town
 Many Go to savin Rock and Other
 Nearby ResOrts-Theaters Have Big
 Audiences,
 sping, lovely Spring, was very much in evidence yesterday. The weather was bright, warm and just an ideal day for those who wanted to be out and around. Overcoats were discarded and many spring suits were worn. The services at the various churches were largely attended, and after mid-day the streets took on an animated and holiday appearance. Seldom, in fact' have such crowds been seen around on a Good Friday in New Haven. There was a large influx of visitors rom Bridgeport, Meriden, Wallingford, Der by, Ansonia and other outlying places. The stores did a fair business, but at no time during the day was there crush It was also remarked that the buyers were mostly out of town people
 
 and very few New Haven customers were seen doing any of the trading.
 The matinees at the New Haven theatre, Polls and the Bl5ou were well attended and in the evening crowded houses were the rule.
 Open cars, a few of them, made there first appearance yesterday, run ming to savin Rock and the Momau- guin. To the former resort large crowds went in the the early afternoon The flying horses and several of the stands were in full swing, which, to- gether with the crowd, gave the park quite holiday appearance. The various alterations taking place at the Rock came in for general inspection from the crowd, and many were heard to utter regrets that the peristyle Whicf was greatly enjoyed since its erection was to be closed to the public in con nection with the threatre which is be- ing turned into a large restaurant, The peristyle will be used as large dining room. Automobiles were numerous or the streets, many passing through from New York to Boston and other places No accidents of any serius nature oc' cured during the day.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC SUED.
Action Involves Question of Union
 Pacific Control.

Pacific Control.
 Chicago, March 29.-Henry Crawford, an attorney of this city, announced to-day that a bill in equity in behalf of the Crocker Estate Company of San Francisco and Thomas H. Hubbard of New York has been filed in the Circuit Court of Austin, Tex, asking that the Southern Pacific Railroad Company be restrained from paying dividends upon it's common stock amounting to $4,0O0.- 900.
 The Court is asked to decree that the Union Pacific Railroad controls and op- crates a system of railroad which is in constant and natural competition with the Southern Pacific between San Fran cisco and New Orleans contrary to public policy, and in violation of the laws of the United States and the laws of Texas"
 The bill asks that the court enjoin the Union Pacific company and it's of f1cers or agents from hereafter voting on any stock of the Southern Pacific Railroad company, or exercising any direction or control over the Southern Pacific road or over It's finances, in- cluding the Galveston, Harrisburg and San Antonio company.
 It is said by the complainants that ito protect fully the liens and prionties of the second mortgage ''West Division bonds" the court will either appoint a receiver for the Western Division" or direct the mortgage trustees to enter into possession and operate the lines under the direction of the court.
 The oomplainants say that they hold more than $2,O00,O0O of the total of $6,- 354,O00 of second mortgage bonds of the Galveston, Harrisburg and San Anto- nio company. and aver that the inter- est and sinking fund installments past due amount to $2,5OO,0O0 and claim that inasmuch as the Southern Pacific assumed and agreed to pay the interest and sinking fund installments, the bondholders have the right to enforce their claims against the Southern Pacl- fic company.
 It is claimed in the bill that the railroad paid interest on bonds and de- elared dividends when they should have

 T have contended that the present value of the railroad should be ascer- tained by the interstate commerce com mission and the commissions of the various states, in order that investors may know when they are buying stock of intrinsic value and when they are being cheated. AS long as promoters are permitted to issue stock that does not represent real value there must be fuctuation in the stock market, for every disclosure of bad railroad man. agement necessarily affects the value of stocks. The stockholders, therefore, who desire to purchase for legitimate investment, should have as such inter- est as the patrons in reducing the rail- road business to an honest basis, but the railroads have thus far prevented the passage of law authorizing the interstate commerce commission to fix the value of the roads.

The men who run the gambling

The men who run the gambling re-
sor near the city limits of Roswell
are not one-tenth as bad as those
who manipulate stocks in Wall
street, New York. The little gamblers
are not respected, merely because
they have o accumulated enough
of other peoples money to buy auto
mobiles and steam yachts-but they
could not do as much harm in a
thousand years as the Wall street
gang can do in one hour.
