Bell and ]. ]. Chandler, officers of the
Philadelphia Gospel Association,
waived a hearing on their behalf in the

of conspiracy to cheat and defraud
the general public in the matter of
the expenditures of funds contributed
through the society's street collection
boxes.
The warrants were sworn out upon
the advice of District Attorney Rotan,
after Superintendent Taylor had as
sured him that investigating showed
that out of $1,000 collected by the So
called association since last June, only
$65 had been used for charitable pur-
poses.
John H. Fow informed Magistrate
Beaton that it had been found that
baskets of food, which it was repre-
scented had been distributed to the
worthy poor, had never reached the

LARGER SHIPS MUST
have LARGER PIERS
(sy Union Associated Press.)

New York, Jan. 25.-Army engineers
detailed by the war department, today
presided at hearing of representa-
tives of all the principal steamship
companies, who asked permission to
extend their piers farther out into the
North River. The department has re-
fused several requests in the past, but
the building of new vessels of giant
proportions now makes such action
necessary, say the steamship men. 1t
is pointed out that when the Olympic,
the biggest liner yet built, arrives
here next summer, eighty-two feet OF
her length will stick out beyond the
longest pier into the river.
1t is also alleged that if the permits
sion is granted, the North River will
remain much wider than the River
Morsey through Liverpool, the Thames
through London, the Mas through
Rotterdam or the Scheldt through Ant
werp. The Olympic, the new giant OF
the seas, will soon he surpassed in
size and length by new vessels to be
added to the fleets of the Cunard and
Hamburg-American and probably 9TH
er lines. To require them to use the
present docks, it was said, would be
like putting a dray horse into a stall
built for Shetland.

"This is peculiarly the case with

The gratitude which thousands in

briefly related the intense interest ar
oused in famine stricken China am
ong the people Of Portland, so that
they gave willingly, even more than
many could afford to give. Quan
Kai then said in his quaint way:

me to speak for him. these poor people
wish to convey all this to you all.
Also the return of the Boxer in

placed aside by my government as a
