published the following account as Il
New York dispatch;
Pilot Saunders came aboard shortly
before the accident and took charge
of the wheel. Mr. Saunders had al
ready given several signals to the en-
Gine-rOOm. and the last brought the
liners bow directly in line with the
Colorado, which was anchored lust off
the main channel. To clear the war
ship another signal was necessary
when the Cleveland was few lengths
away. When this was not fOrthCOm-

on the bridge, looked in alarm at the
pilot. What he saw made his flesh
creep, although he is a hardened mar
liner.
Mr.. Saunders. with staring eyes,
purple face. and gaping mouth, was
breathing heavily. The captain saw
him clutch at his waist with tremh-
ling and frcnzied hands, and then pitch
forward and fall onto his face dead.
Even before the pilot fell Captain
Dempwolf was rushing to give the sig

Campbell COMES
A TR|FLE LATE

"lf you take l2O,OnO from i3q 600
how can you have ilO,OOO LETT" Is
what Commissioner James Wakefield
asked Chairman MarstOn Campbell
yesterday afternoon AT the meeting
of the harhOr commission and the
only answer he received was oh
well, we wont argue about that. Tho
figures are matters of record aud
nothing can change them"
This is how the sitaution stood at
the end OF long and heated discus
sion between Campbell and Wakefield
following the introduction of u report
by Campbell backing up the correct
ness Of his figures, as shown on maps
submitted to the harbOr commission
members for the last meeting on the
areas of the proposed wharf plans
Campbell, in connection with his
pier scheme for the waterfront. as
against the bulkhead scheme brought
out by Wakefield and adopted by the
commission, suddenly made known
the fact that all the piers under his
scheme have two decks or floors. thus
nearly doubling the floor area and
bringing the total figures very close
to those of the bulkhcad. None of the
commissioners knew this at the last
meeting when the maps were before
them and when Wakefield challenged
some of the figures shown Camp
bell states, however, that this has
been the scheme all along
"lf you had followed the improve
mcnts that have been made in the
waterfront, or if you had known any
thing about the plans for the future
you would have known this" he told
Wakefield yesterday
"'rhat Is all right" came the an
swcr. but what want to know Is
this, Mr. Campbell; The plans you
showed us did not give all that detail
All that you showed there was that
there was total of 439,O0O square
feet, out of which had to be deduct
ed 10000 square feet for the slip
and yet you told us that there would
be 4lO,00O square feet left Now what
want to know Is how you arrive at
these figures
Campbell could not answer beyond
stating that the figures were "A matter
OF record and could not be wrong.
Both men grew angry and Wake field
offered to back his bank account that
he was right in his contention. He
did not say, however, as quoted this
morning, I'm always right"

MOTHERHOOD
SUGGESTIONS
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience Of Motherhood IL try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how to properly care for her
self. OF course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at
such times, but many approach the
experience with an organism untitled
for the trial Of strength, and when it
is over her system has received shock
from which it is hard to recover. Fol-
lowing right upon this comes the ner-
vous strain Of caring for the child, and
a distinct change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is that,
with all the evidence of shattered nerves
and broken health resulting from an I'M
prepared condition, and with ample time
in which to prepare, women will persist
in going blindly TO the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia L. Pinkham sVegetable Com

orator of the female organism.

BARROW INDICTMENTS
MAY Be DISMISSED
Legal ENHANCEMENT Has Arisen
Over the Court Order to Fur
nish the Records

Los ANGELES, March 2.-The
jury bribery indictments against
barrow, former chief counsel for the
Mcnamara brothers have become so
enmeshed in legal tangles that the
possibility is that all charges may ne
dismissed.
The complications arose when At
torney Earl Rogers, representing OAR
row, refused to accept the fragment
airy notes of testimony as a compliance
with the court order that the district
attorney shall supply the defense with
a full transcript of the evidence on
which the grand jury indicted Oar
row.
Declaring that full transcript was
not to be had because all the testi-
money was not taken by the official
stenographer, Fredericks announced
he would pay no more attention to
the indictments and would have Oar
row re-arrested on information as
was done in the case of Bert Frank
lin, the Mcnamara detective, who was
fined $4,000 yesterday after a plea
of guilty to the charge of attempting
to influence a juror in the Mcnamara
trial. Further complications will
probably arise.

M|C0lA| AND CHAfFEE
WIN VERDICT QUICKLY
Conspiracy Was Alleged in Sum
nyside Case, But Charge Was
Proven Unfounded

The jury in the case of j. o. Vince
and wife against H. f. Nicolai and
stephen f. Chaffee brought in a una
nmous verdict in favor of the de-
PENDANTS after a brief elaboration,
Saturday evening, in superior court,
department No. 2, before Judge
Thomas e. Grady. The principals
are from Sunnyside.
The plaintiff, j. Q. Vince, who is
an ex-Baptist minister, in his com
plant alleged that the defendants,
stephen r. Chaffee, a lawyer, and H.
f. Nicolai and Otto Burton entered
fraud the plaintiffs out of their pro-
perry while j. o. Vince was in Eng
land
When the case was called the
plaintiffs moved for a dismissal as to
defendant Burton.
The evidence which was clear and
convincing showed that the defend
ants, instead of trying to defraud the
plaintiffs had used their best efforts
without reward to save the interests
of the plaintiffs from being forfeited
"huSl al real estate CONTRACT fnduc by
Mr.. Nicolai to plaintiffs.
Mr.. Vince testified himself that he
had told Mr.. Nicolai the day before
he left for England, you can take
the land back if you want to- and
that he had given power of attorney
to Joshua A. Vince authorizing him
to sell this land, but did not tell Mr..
Nicolai that he had given power of
attorney. He also testified that Mr..
Chaffee had always been his friend
and had done him many favors: that
he had never written to him or stated
orally that he was dissatisfied with
his services in assisting his brother to
close deal for the sale of land, and
that he had never spoken to Mr.
Nicolai about the matter.
The undisputed testimony showed
that the defendant, H. f. Nicolai, sold
the SO acres of land in question at
an advance of $4,000 over what Vince
contracted to pay for it two years be-
fore, and that he accounted to the
plaintiffs for every cent over and
above what was due under the con-
tract, and that Mr.. Chaffee performed
the legal services free of charge
After the jury was dismissed sew
eral of them congratulated Mr. Chat
fee and said: You acted as a gentle
man all through the matter and we
dld not want to keep you under sus-
pense longer than was necessary"

THE OPTIMIST
Written Expressly for
THE MORNING HERALD

The Youths Companion is a paper
known the land over. 1t has been
household companion for many years.
The proprietor, editor. and builder of
that splendid young peoples journal
was Mr.. Daniel S. Ford. His health
broke down and he was obliged to
conduct the magazine from his home
III one of the beautiful parks of the
city of Boston. His work was done
in a little room where his desk was by
a pleasant window. After his death
the room was cleared and on his desk
was found the following poem. The
paper on which the poem was written
showed much wear indicating that Mr..
Ford often read it. If the poet had
undertaken to describe the character
of the delightful editor he could have
done no better if he had been per-
sonally acquainted. The Optimist
thinks it worth while to present the
poem here.
The bread that bringeth strength
want to give,
The water pure that bids the thirsty
live:
want to help the fainting day by
day;
I'm sure L shall not pass again this
way.
want to give the oil Of joy for tears,
The faith to conquer crowding doubts
and fears,
Beauty for ashes may / give away:
I'm sure / shall not pass again this
way.
want to give good measure running
DER,
And into angry hearts l want to pour
The answer soft that turneth wrath
away;
I'm sure L shall not pass again this
way.
I want to give to others hope and
faith,
I want to do all that the Master saith;
| want to live Alright from day to
day;
I'm sure / shall not pass again this
way.
Herein is contained splendid
working creed and it is safe to say
that this old world of ours would be
a better place to live in if We would
all live by it.

The Great Guest. Comes

The Great Guest Comes
While the cobbler unused. there
passed his pane
A beggar drenched by the driving
rain;
He called him in from the stony street
And gave him shoes for his bruised
feet
The beggar went: there came crone,
Her face with wrinkles of sorrow
sown:
A bundle of fagots bowed her back,
And she was spent with the wrench
and rack
He gave her his loaf and steadied
her load
AS she took her way on the weary
road.
Then to his door came little child,
Lost and afraid in the world so wild,
In the big dark world. Catching it up
He gave it the milk in the waiting
cup,
And led it home to its mothers arms,
Out of reach of the worlds alarms
The day went down in the crimson
west,
And with it the hope of the blessed
Guest;
And Conrad sighed as the world
turned gray:
'Why is it, Lord, that your feet de.
lay?
Did you forget that this was the day."
Then. soft, in the silence voice he
heard:
Lift up your heart, for l kept my
word.
Three times I came to your friendly
door;
Three times my shadow was on YOUR
floor,
I was the beggar with bruised feet;
l was the woman YOU gave to eat:
l was the child on the homeless street"
