12 THIS MOKNENXx 0112fU.NlAf. JT1UJJAY, AUGUST IWjS. CHANLER IS POSITIVE DID XOT AID OR ADVISE PETER. POWER TO LEAVE THE COUXTRY. Hnvl JTo Conierenc "With .Cockran or Cleveland Concerning the Vnlldltr of the Service of the Sabpena. NEW YORK, Aug. 28. Hearing In the suit of Peter Power to prevent the turn ing over of Northern Pacific stock to the Northern' Securities Company was con tinued today. H. Dubois, bookkeeper for the Arm or Thomas & Post, was called to testify to the purchase by the Arm of 400 shares of Northern Pacific preferred stock for Gen eral Samuel Thomas. Mr. Dubois recog nized the transcripts of the accounts of Thomas & PoBt, showing the purchase of 400 chares of Great Northern preferrred stock, which was subsequently trans ferred to the account of the Monon syn dicate for $78,000, and later to the Amer ican Tobacco syndicate for the same con sideration, and later to the "Swipe" ac count for Mr. Thomas, in two lots of 200 shares each. A. "IV. Bulkley, a lawyer, of Chicago, was then called by Mr. Guthrie, of coun sel for the defendants. Mr. Bulkley said his firm had given notice of withdrawal from the Power suit During one of the interviews between Mr. Lamb and the witness. Lamb said Power had owned. 100 Bhares of Northern Pacific stock for six months, that it was in the name of the person from whom he purchased it, and that it was in a safe deposit in New York, as Power was unwilling to carry it about with him. "I asked Mr. Lamb why ho did not pro duce Power and his stock," said Mr. Bulkley, "and he replied he had a card up his sleeve he intended to play at the proper time. Then I said: 'We don't be lieve he has any stock, and we intend withdrawing from the case,' and later we served notice of withdrawal." Mr. Bulkley said Lamb told him that Captain Stern had nothing to do with the Power suit. Ex-Judge L. Klder Cady, who cross-examined Mr. Bulkley, quoted from a letter written by ex-Judge Lan caster, of Minneapolis, to Mr. Lamb, to the effect that Mr. Lamb had told Judge Lancaster that H. Content &. Co. and Camille Weidenfeld would be behind Pe ter Power, and that Captain Stern had confirmed the statement. Mr. Bulkley said his recollection of the fact differed from Judge Lancaster's. "How much compensation has your firm received in the Northern Paclflc suit?" asked Mr. Cady. "About J1C00 or $1700 in the Power, Chapman and Bouden suits. Part, $500, was paid by Mr. Lamb. The balance came from Bouden and Chapman." To Mr. Guthrie, who reminded him that Bouden had sworn that he never paid a cent towards the cost of the litigation, Mr. Eulkley said he received the Bouden money from Captain Stern. Captain Stern, when on the witness stand, testi fied that he was not interested in the Bouden suit. Mr. Moore, one of Mr. Bulkley's part ners, corroborated Mr. Bulkley's evidence. He was asked whether Mr. Lamb, Mr. Weidenfeld or any one else ever repre sented to him that the stock Captain Stern produced in Chicago was Peter Power's stock. The witness replied that no one so rep resented, and then Captain Stern was called to the stand. He was asked whether he had read his testimony and was ready to sign it. He replied that he Had not read it, because he had been too busy. "What have you been busy about?" asked Mr. Guthrie. "I've been making an investigation," i replied Captain Stern, "to learn -first -of all, whether Mr. Lamb really registered in Minneapolis, and I'm on the trail, and I'm going to ferret this thing out." Captain Stern then turned to Mr. Lamb and said: "I'm tired of all this; there is a limit to omo things. When you turn loose like a mad dog and bite people, there's a way of treating mad dogs; some people shoot them." Mr. Guthrie called Captain Parker C. Chanler. a Boston attorney, who. Lamb said, was one of those desirous of get ting Power out of the country. Mr. Chan ler testified that he had been retained by Mr. Weidenfeld about July 26, as as sociated counsel with W. Bourke Cock ran and Mr. Cleveland. He saw Power in Lamb's office, but he did not know that Power had been subponaed. He gave Lamb $750 on or about July 8 for Weid enfeld. This money, he said, he under stood was paid In a land transaction over some Worcester property, and not for the purpose of getting Power out of -the way, as Lamb alleged. The letter calling lor the $7c0 was written, Mr. Chanler said. in W. Bourke Cockran's office. Mr. Chan ler then presented a sworn statement made by himself, to the effect that so far as he knew or had reason to believe, the $750 paid Lamb was in connection with the Worcester land case, and that he did noti know the money was to be used to get Power out of the country. At this point a recess was announced, At the afternoon session Mr. Chanler read hia affidavit, which was very long. It concludes as follows: 'T deny most positively that I ever con ferred with Mr. Cockran or with Mr. Cleveland or they with me, concerning the validity of the service of the subpena on Peter Power or Power absenting him self, or that I paid Lamb any money in the Northern Pacific suit, or to enable Mr. Power to absent himself, or that I gave my opinion as to the legality of the subpena served on Power, or advised him or any one elee that Power might safely absent himself. On the contra rv whenever reference was made by Lamb to the subject, I always said Power should be present in court." Mr. Kellogg, of counsel for the North ern Securities Company, asked Mr. Chanler why his- statement contained no rererence to the meetings ho had with Lamb at the Waldorf-Astoria, the Calu met Club and the Transportation Club Mr. Chanler aaid he had forgotten those meetings. "Where was that paper presented?" Mr, Kellogg asked. "Part In my room and part in the of- lice of Bourke Cockran." The hearing went over until toroororr. TO. OPERATE IX YAK Ell A VALLEY.

Kinney, chief engineer of the Great Central Railroad Company, has left for Coos Bay to look after the Inter ests of the company at that point. To an-Oregonlan reporter Major Kinney made the following remarks yesterday, when asked the reason for the trip: "We are getting ready for the great sur vey from Coos Bay to Salt Lake City, a distance of nearly 1000 miles. This sur vey will c6mmence on September 15, and will continue all Winter, for the western end of the line. Wc have secured 50 pack horses, and have them ready at Prlnevllle for the surveyors gangs. I am going down to do the first work of the company at Empire, where we will commence oper ations on the wharves and trestle work on September 1. the day that we promised construction would begin." New BncTRagrc Saperlntcndent. A. C. Martin, who has been ln charge of the advertising desk in the general passenger agent's ofilce of thc O. R. & N.

At prosent the time be tween thcao two cities is 70& hours, but after tho change it will bo an oven 70. Ono of the principal reasons for thla change is to givo passengers a little more time to go from one train to another in Chicago, at present there being only an hour.

A Visit to Sleepy Hollow's Ancient and Xeirlectcd Cemetery. New York Sun. Any one who may be passing along the main road between Tarry town and Ossin ing, in the. northern part of Tarrytown, sees the old Sleepy Iol!ow cemetery ex tending 40 or CO rods along the east side of the thoroughfare, with the quaint lit tle church at the south end of It. The cemetery may bo entered at the church gate or anywhere along the low stono trail that separates tho graveyard from tho road. The Ions, narow cemetery, climbing the steep hill from the church, is beautiful in situation, but unkempt. A workman has a contract to cut the grass twice in the season; and except for a short timo alter he has plied his scytho among the crumbling gravestones, the thick and matted grass lies in tangles that com pletely hide from view the broken stones which once marked tho last resting' places of farmers and their families who died two centuries and more ago, representa- tlves of the first generations of Dutch settlers who lived in tho Valley of the Hudson. The church society has little money with which to keep this ancient ceme tery in repair; and' so, as the bones of the burghers buried here have crumbled Into dust, the little brownstone flnonu ments that marked their graves as long as any lived who remembered them, have fallen into ruins; or if any still stand, the effacing storms and decay of many years have left ln most cases only a trace of the lettering, some fragments of which may still be read. A little way inside the wall is a nar row path steeply climbing the hill, pass ing straight over scores of graves that are marked by no upheaval of the soil but only by fragments of gravestones' whose bases, still rooted in the earth, are likely to trip the unwary pedestrian. There could be-no more forcible reminder of the futility of trying to perpetuate at least a name and the record of the begin-" nlng and thc end of an earthly pilgrim age. Climbing north along this path throtlgh the grass that overhangs and over the tombstones that encumber It. tho visitor reaches at last a broader walk running east and west. Turning to the right on this path he soon observes a little ceme tery within a cemetery a square Inclos-. ure made by a thick hedge and trcea which surround the burial plot of the Irving family. Thc entrance Is through J a gate locked against Intruders, but thjs gateway Is perhaps the only point whero the visitor may have a view of the tiers nf p-mvf uHthln rlslnr above one another nn tho Villlfjldp. I A little northeast of thc center of this i inclosure Is the grave of Washington Irv ing. It Is distinguished from the others only by the fact that the white marble tombstone is a little broader and higher and has a rounded and slightly ornate top. It bears simply the name, the age and the dates of thc birth and death of tho distinguished author. Around his grave are 50 or 60 other tombstones, each bear ing the name of Irving cr showing by Its Inscription that the person commemo rated was a "member of the family. There Is no trace here of the ruin and neglect that mark all the older parts of the cem etery. In another part of the churchyard are the graves of thc Badeau family; its most conspicuous member was General Adam Badeau, whose record ln the Civil War and connection with General Grant made him well known. His tombstone is rather moro conspicuous than tho others but none of the 30 or 40 graves of his relatives show that they have any atten tion save from tho scythe of the solitary grasscutter. Curiously enough ono of the older tombstones of this Interesting spot is still erect and its Inscription may be read, though with difficulty. Jt records tho fact that the man hurled there outlived a century and loft behind him 240 direct descendants. Time has dealt kindly with this notable record graven In brownstone; and surely the memory of a man who had so conspicuous a part in populating the country deserve perpetuation. The Ohllsratlon to Cuba. Brooklyn Eagle. " The trouble with Mr. Eddy and his kind Is simply that they cannot or will not dis tinguish the differences between the var ious forms of obligation. We do not owe Cuba anything in the sense that she has given us something for which we arc bound to make a return, but to say that we owe her nothing Is to deny the duty of a parent to support his child. Legally thh Samaritan was under no obligation to anoint the wounds of the traveler who fell among thieves while journeying from Jerusalem to Jericho, and having done this kindly office he was not compelled to take the victim of ruffianism to an inn and thero care for him, and having cared for him at thc inn he was not obliged to give him money sufficient to continue his journey. He owed that "certain man" nothing but thc charity which the strong owe to the weak, and which nations no less than individuals may exorcise with out detriment to themselves and with en during benefit to others. .

The Morven was taken at 26s 2d. -which is a pretty low rate com pared with the 40 shillings paid her when she was ln port about two years ago. Her experience for the pat five years was not all sunshine, for this is the second time within that period that she hao sailed away ln ballast from distant ports to como to Portland at a low rate. The Morven sailed from Europe for Freemantle about six months ago, and on discharging cargo there, coal freights were so low that her 150,000 BUSHELS WHEAT. ownere concluded to send her away In ballast, and she was headed for San Fran cisco for orders. She is now due at San Francisco Heads, and on arrival there will bo sent to Portland. The French ship arrived at Cape Town ln June, and is supposed to be making the usual reach out to Hobart Town in order to get ln all of the mileage possible. The en route list has received a number of additions recently and Is now of large proportions; hoth for Portland and Puget Sound. The list in port is also steadily growing. There were two arrivals on Puget Sound yesterday, the British bark Wynstay at Royal Roads, and the British bark Celtlcburn at Tacoma. Both are under charter; and the Celtlcburn like the Morven has sailed all the way from Australia ln ballast to secure a 27s 6d rate. HARD ON DESERTERS. French Government Folloirs thc Movements of a Sailor for a Year. The persistency with which the French Government puts the stamp of its dis approval upon desertions from the French merchant marine was demonstrated to day, says a Port Townsend special to the Tacoma Ledger , when, on a consular warrant. Issued by the French Con6ul General at San Francisco, Pierre Horellon, a seaman, was arrested aboard the Amer ican bark Hecla and lodged ln Jail.

Cantaln Erie Johnson, ono of the oldest tugboatmen at the mouth of the river. has gone to Seattle to take command of tho Puget Sound Tugboat Company tug ! Wn.Z.. ...v,ik 111 ,,i tn i the Columbia. The Wanderer will go In to service on the bar at once, to relieve the Tatoosh, which is to tow a log raft from Stella to San Francisco. The Wan derer Is a powerful boat, and would be a valued addition to the fleet at the mouth of the river, but as she Is needed on Puget Sound, the Tatoosh and Wallula will probably be helped out during the busy season by the tug Samson, which Is also a very good towboat. The Samson has not had much experience ln towing ships on the bar, but the remarkably good work ?he has performed with Hale & Kern's big barges would Indicate that 6he will All tho bill with the deep-water ships. The bar is in worse shape than It was last season, and a good tug and pilot service will be needed if It ever was. SEASON'S SEALING CATCH. Bx?insvrlcl Takes 22,2-23 Skins to Snn Francisco.

The little steamer Brunswick, which arrived today from Dutch Harbor, Kodlak and the seal Islands of St. George and St. Paul, brought In her hold the season's catch of sealskins. Strong of odor and not par ticufarly beautiful ln appearance, the furs represent the outside coverings of 22,243 seals, and in the markets of the world, odoriferous and unsightly as they are, they will bring ln the neighborhood of $300,000. The Brunswick's cargo represents the season's work of seat slaughter on and around St. Georgo and St. Paul Islands. Measurements of Launch Ellc. ASTORIA,. Or., Aug. 2S. (Special.)

Forecasting: Judicial Decisions. . Baltimore Sun. There was a period in our National life when It was not considered decorous to read tho minds of Supreme Court Justices and announce their opinions on im portant questions ln advance of the court's decision. That sentiment no longer prevails. Ever since the de cision In the legal tender cases, nearly a generation ago. when It was Intimated that Justices were appointed after their views had been ascertained, our Sherlock Holmeses of the press and of politics have not scrupled to read the minds of new Justices and to proclaim exactly how theso Justices would decide questions of the highest Importance.
