It was at once transmitted to the

commented briefly upon the great trip
ahead :
'It can be easily accomplished by
this fleet," he said. "In fact it will
he easier than the present cruise has
been. While thcro are many long- trips
between stops, every one of our mod

sufficient coal to make them, with
some to spare. We shall have better

GREETS RESTORED CITY
I. O. Mills Tells San Francisco Es
sentials of Success.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 25.-A public
reception wan given this mornintfr by the
Pan Francisco Chamber of Commerce as
a token of appreciation by the business
community for his effort to promote the
prosperity of the city and state, to D.
Mills, the San Francisco and New
York banker. President Charles C.
Aloore, pf the Chamber of Commerce,
rrrsiried and spoke in behalf of" that or
ganization and other commercial inter
ests. Mayor Taylor delivered a cordial
address of welcome, to which Mr. Mills
responded. Mr. Mills contrasted the
Sn Francisco of J 849 with the restored
city of today and said: "I predict a
Kreater future for the city than per
haps many of you anticipate."
He estimated the cost of new build
ings since the fire at $100,000,000, and
the insurance on the burned district at
$23.i.flOO.OrtO. of which 2J6,000,000 had
been paid.
"San Francisco ran thus point to great
commercial successes and to many civil
successes, in spite of all her troubles and
disasters. If she has not had the suc
cesses that we hoped she would have it
is well to recognize this and to realize
what the causes have been. They are not
peculiar to our city, but belong generally
tn the later life of our whole country.
There are aigrns of an Increase. Ix8s of
public spirit and of increasing failure to
meet obligations, accompanied by a de
cline in mutual forbearance, and in the
just recoirnltion of each others rights,
but in some of these respects San Fran
cisco has suffered to a pronounced degree.
Tlie inereslrw; strug-gle between capital
and labor needs to be composed. It ought
to be understood that there is no general
conspiracy of capital against labor, and
that there can he none. Those who lead
the organizations of labor to believe that
there is. do them a great injury, as -well
the The public at large. San Francisco
had had an undue share of harm from
lhU source. F.very working man has a
right, an eoual right, with capital to an
open market, a right to the open shop.
The government that dees not this is a
false .pretense, and it Is not worth what
It costs.
"Great as hae been our efforts at
recovery, they need to be yet greater,
and to rise to a level even higher than
in the past, yet the men of our past
have great lessons for us and are good
examples.
"My best hope for those who come af
ter us is that they will hold fast to
the good will, tho energy and the integ
rity which were the general traluj of the
best men In the early days of this
chamber and San Francisco. In rebuild
ing the city, larger, grander, richer,
we must heighten our aims and above
all establish character and the Institu
tions that make for It, Only in this
way can we. hope for lasting success.
tur greater 9nn Francisco must be built
on our practical reverence for purity in
the home, on respect for property and
contract, on parrtotisrn and the observ
ance of the law."

Impeachment of Judge Wilfley
Not Warranted.
COMMITTEE FILES REPORT
Intimates, However, That Jurist Has
Been Gnilty of HIgrh-Handednese.
Harshness and Other Errors In
Conduct of Chinese Court.
WASHINGTON, March 25. Impeach
ment proceedings will not be Instituted
In the United States Senate against L.
R. Wilfley, Judge of the United States
Court for China, as a result of the
charges of misbehavior In office brought
against him by Lorin Andrews and other
American lawyers resident in Shanghai.
The report of the special committee, con
sisting of Representatives Coon of Penn
sylvania, Webb of North Carolina, and
Diekema of Michigan, appointed by
Speaker Cannon to determine whether the
charges were based upon facte sufficient
to warrant impeachment of Judge Wilfley,
today submitted its report to the House
committee on the judiciary.
This report Is in the nature of a ver
dict, holding Judge Wilfley guiltless of
the bad motives necessary to a leal cause
for Impeachment, but finding him guilty.
though more by forceful inference than
direct accusation, of high-handedness and
harshness and some serious mistakes ii
the conduct of his court.
The investigation by the special com
mlttee followed the introduction in the
House by Mr. Waldo of New York of a
memorial comprising 29 distinct charges
made by Mr. Andrews and his colleagues.
In the report of the committee an ex
haustive review written by Chairman
Koon and concurred in by Mr. Webb and
Mr, Diekema, each of these charges and
the real facts relating thereto, as brought
out by testimony taken, are judicially
discussed and disposed of, and the con
clusions reached are as follows:
Need for Forbearance.
"The conclusion of the committee ad
duced from the memorial, from the ex
amination of petitioner and from our
construction of the precedents of impeach
ment trials in the United States, is that
the actual facts charged In the said mem
orial, even though established by compe
tent legal evidence, would not justify t
conviction of Judge Wilfley upon changes
of impeachment before the United States
Senate, and would not therefore warrant
a presentation by the House of Repre
sentatives of such articles of Impeach
ment. Notwithstanding this finding, the
investigation of the case has made it
clear to us that the anomalous character
of this court, the extraordinary power
given by law to the judge, the fact that
it is separated several thousand miles
from an appellate tribunal with a broad
ocean intervening between, presenting ob
stacles that burden the constitutional
right of review with expense, delay and
hazard unknown to any other court, jus
tify the people of the United States in
demanding of this judge a temperate ex
ercise of his great power.
"It Is obviously true that an aggrega
tion of entirely legal acts may develop
into a system of tyranny and oppression
and that an inequitable exercise of judi
cial discretion may convert the ministry
of justice into an engine of despotic and
autocratic power. This may be accom
plished without the taint of individual
corruption and with a laudable purpose
of purifying a community and of in
augurating civic reform.
"Terror to evildoers, if purchased at
the price of judicial fairness and over
strained legal authority, is achieved at
too great an expense, for it defeats its
own high aim and warps the very fabric
of law itself.
Has Dangrous Significance.
"The temptation of an honest judge to
bend once the law to his authority to do a
great right, 'do a little wrong is fraught
with such danger to our whole system
of remedial justice that It must merit
the condemnation of every mind. Such
acts of legal oppression and of abuse
of Judicial discretion lie at the foundation
of the charges. They are made before
the House of Representatives in the form
prescribed by law and custom and pre
sented as a question of high privilege on
the solemn responsibility of a member
of the House. Cnarges so presented
against the court have a peculiar and
dangerous significance. In this case they
are dismissed as falling .short of Im
peachable offense "by what we believe to
be sound principles of legal construction
and Julge Wilfley is thereby uenled every
opportunity for defense. He can file no
answer and make no denial nor explain
to the House the legality or necessity for
his action.
"These charges therefore, stand uncon
troverted and if his judicial acts In the
future are marked by the rigorous and in
flexible harshness imputed to him they
will hang as a portentious cloud over this
new court, impairing the usefullness of
Judge Wilfley, Impending the administra
tion of justice and challenging the integ
rity ot American institutions.
Precipitates Warm Debate.
The presentation of the report pre
cipitated a warm debate in the full
committee, some of the members de
claring the opinion that Judge Wilfley
should be Impeached. Mr. Clayton, of
Alabama, entered a -motion for such
impeachment, and served notice that if
the committee failed to accept It he
would move it on the floor of the
House.
No actfon was taken today by the
full committee.

to Be Estranged.
NEW YORK. March 25. Alfred G. Van

estranged, and recent events give rise
to the rumor that they have separated,
but no authoritative information has been
made public. Oakland Farm, the country

been abandoned as a residence. Mrs.
Vanderbilt has been there for several
days supervising the packing of her own
property at Oakland. Today, seven large
loads were taken to Newport and shipped
to the residence of Amos Tuck French,
Mrs. Vanderbilt's brother, at Tuxedo.
Since a period antedating last Summer
Mr. and Mrs. Vanderbilt have rarely been
seen together. There are stories of trips
of tne coacn venture to the races when
a stag party returned, augmented by
several young women picked up on the
way.

HOW many living men can squarely stand up and honestly compare themselves as
the equal or superior (in any way whatsoever) to the great Iron Chancellor who
made Goethe's dream of Germanic unity a realistic drama of "iron and of blood ?"
How many dare declare "I have greater brain power than he" "I have a stronger
body" "I am healthier" "I have a saner knowledge" "I am more successful" or "I
have more force of character ?"
Bismarck, during his marvelous career, outwitted the most celebrated statesmen of
his time; overthrew and conquered three armed nations, and ruled over the empire he
created with enlightened and practical wisdom for nearly half a century, dying at the
ripe old age of 89, famous throughout the world as the "Greatest of the Germans."
Now, upon what nutriment was this colossus fed that he grew so mighty; what put
the iron into his blood? This we know that like all Germans he believed in good eat
ing and drinking, hence the juices of the malt and hops were never absent from his table.
