SAN FHANCISCO , Feb. 1C. Ono by ono
the riders arc pasting tlio bail spoils which
cvory rider Is bound lo find In n six-day
firlml. Thirteen riders still remain In the
International six-day race and tlicsa ara
due to finish the race now that the third
day la practically completed. Few rldcra
ever quit nt this time. Positions have lie-
como more sfttled and llio dUtnnccs be
tween the riders place the positions of each
moro clearly , ns changes come less seldom
than was the case when the rlilcre pro-
aontcd a fresher appearance.
Today an Inspector went out from the city
to taUo tip bis quaitcrs lu the training
quarters and matched the men ns tlioy
came from the track. Ho talked with the
trainers ono by ono and found that not a
rider on the track -was In that condition
known as "bughouse" In the vernacular of
the track.
Sleepy they are , undoubtedly , and In that
condition llkoly to glvo the Impression of
imvlng reached the "daffy" staso. IJut a
little rrot , which Is prescribed by the
referee , soon places the wan right ngaln.
Hound and round the eight lap hlghty-
tanked track the thirteen men followed
each othar today. At times the riders would
sprint , but the greater part ot the work
was steady wearing to It. Incidents were
not so numerous nnd surprises were few
nnd far between.
In the slx'ty-thlrd hour , when twenty-four
miles to the good of Miller , Louis
dtrnm , the leader , left the track Tor n rub.
I only want a rub , " eald he , "for iny
business this week is 'cyclo riding and not
sleeping. "
Veil AN ! < M-I > nil UtilililiiK Table.
Hut he fell asleep whllo they wore rubbing
him and a smile was on his face as for
fifty minutes ho enjoyed the bllaa ot forget-
fulncRS. Waked again , when Miller was but
ttuvcn laps to tbu good , he rose quickly and ,
with no knowledge of the tlmo ho had been
from the track , ran nut again to the elrclo
ivhoro lay money and glory for him. Glmm
nt once took the Initiative and started n
galling gait for Miller. The Cblcagoan tired
of following and tried to run away. Glmm
trailed , the game ho has worked so persis
tently since the start ot the race. Miller
glanced around apprehensively and when
Plorco , In the alxty-suvonth hour , started
sprinting for lay after lap Glmm trailed
the Iloatonlan and Miller had another hard
chase. Then Miller left the track and In
lila dressing room ho said that team work
was being done against him. Ho was n
victim of vi\ld Imagination , ns I'lerco was
guilty only of good riding and Glmm of
, following the pace. The recovery of Plerco
came as n surprise to many who bad thought
Titm out ot tlio race.
Anronson also did some good work. N.r\\n
quit again and again nnd at times walked
across tlio track center matching the other
competitors.
Trainer Kikescalls Nawn nnd Barnaby

no often lost. Yet both do some brilliant

of future years , when that group of Islands

creasing possibilities , a people redeemed
from savage indolence nnd habits , devoted

FAVORS A TRADE ALLIANCE

Lord Charlca Beresford Is a great big
handsome Englishman and a titled foreigner
who spent n brief period In the city Thurs
day evening , cnrouto to Chicago from San
Francisco. He Is returning homo after a
three months' visit to China In the Interest
of the trade alliance which contemplates
a friendly arrangement between the United
States , Great Britain , Germany and Japan ,
which has for Its object the maintenance ot
the Integrity of the Cblncso cmplro nnd
the extension of the commerce of these na
tions In that section of the Orient.
In September last Lord Bcrosford went to
China os the official representative of the
various chambers of commerce throughout
the United Kingdom to mnko definite In
quiries and report upon the Tjest method
of contributing to this alliance. Inciden
tally his lordship -was Instructed to ascer
tain whllo parsing through the United States
what the sentiment of the nation Is on the
alliance subject.
In n Diplomat.
Thla distinguished gentleman Is a trained
diplomat and In splto of the fact that lie
holds all sorts of titles under her majesty's
government , among which Is. that of ad
miral of the navy , which ho won In the
heat ot battle , bo la the most democratic
of good fellows. Ho Is n member of Par
liament and expresses considerable anxiety
to get homo to participate In the sittings
of that 'body.
The Bee representative -went out on the
Union Pacific and came in with Lord Bores-
ford , The gentleman occupied a drawing
room ot palatial appointments In ono of the
now sleepers which that company Is oper
ating In connection with Its Overland Lim
ited trains. Howas accompanied by his
private secretary. Robin Grey. Ho talked
nt length on the subject of his Investiga
tion and asserted that ho ( believed the plan
of the alliance ifor trade purpose of Ger
many , Great Britain , the United States and
Japan Is not only qulto feasablo , but a very
desirable thing for nil concerned.
In discussing the subject his lordship ( be
came qulto enthusiastic. "You see , " he re
marked with n broad English accent and
the kindliest expression Imaginable upon his
face , " the nations mentioned are the only
ones having any trade relations with China.
Franco and Russia -want territory , for they
bavo no trade and nothing to gain 'by ' any
trade considerations , but at course they
cannot oppose -with force such an aggrega
tion as the powers mentioned. At present
England lias about $185,000,000 of trade an
nually with China , Germany follows with
$15,000,000 , the United States with $35,000-
000while - little Japan has $20,000,000 , Now
this can bo Increased an hundredfold by the
plan the trade unions of the United King
dom have In view and yet China bo tbo
gainer Ih every respect. At present It la a
game cf grab and the Chinese empire can
not survive the present plan long. Then ,
too , the peace at the world Is threatened ,
whereas on the plan ot the chambers of
commerce , the peace of tlie world will bo
secure , the Integrity of the greatest empire
of the Orient will be guaranteed and all
the vast territory 'bo thrown open to trade.
Open I'oriB Arc "VVmiteil.
"At present , ot course , each nation has
a so-called 'sphere of Influence' and In that
zone they are supreme and all kinds of
conflicting duties are levied. What wo tradIng -
Ing nations want nro open ports where all
nations can trade on equal tonnfl. The par
tition of China among the powers Is In
evitable If some such solution Is not offered
soon. In my investigation I visited thirty-
one of the prominent ports of China and
practically covered all the southern prov
inces , therefore I am well Informed on the
subject. Of course China must have reve
nue and the open ports will afford thjs.
Then when her army and navy are reorgan
ized and officered ( by representatives of the
civilized nations the country will soon
'bloom ' like the Garden of Eden. I find
much sentiment In this country In favor ot
this plan. We do not want an alliance ,
defensive and offensive , such as will glvo
cause for hard feeling on the part of other
nations , but merely a friendly understand
ing.
ing.Whllo
Whllo his lordship -naa talking the train
was making tremendous speed. The flyer
was Into nnd from North Platte to Omaha
the long train mas toeing pulled along at
the rate of a mile a minute and better. Bo-
tiwcon Grand Island and North Platte , 135
miles , but 130 minutes were consumed and
frequently the train made eighty miles an
hour. When Lord Beresford vias told what
swift tlmo ho was making ho was amazed.
"Why I never saw anything like It. And
then , too , this dining car system , It Is
grand. The appointments of this train nro
a constant source of surprise to me. Why ,
I can write , drink ray coffee nnd ibe travelIng -
Ing nearly two miles a mlnuto nnd the flying
train scarcely making a single jolt. I have
heard a great deal of the Union Pacific , Ha
engineering miracles , etc. , but the palatial
trains and their wonderful speed are suffici
ently Interesting to attract all my atten
tion. "
When Lord Bereatord reaches homo he
will have traveled 33,000 miles since startIng -
Ing on his Investigation.

Miss Marie Rent Hofcr of Chicago eave
two lectures In the Young Women's Chris
tian association rooms Thursday under the
auspices of the Omaha Mothers' club and
she will complete heir series by giving two
more today , 0110 this afternoon and oqe this
evening. Both of the lectures yesterday were
largely composed of women. Miss Hofer'e
lectures bear upon the use ot musk : In the
early education of children. She seeks to
Impress the Importance of having children
ox prow themselves understanding/
music. Her ideas are another branch of
modern methods lu kindergarten teaching.
She would do away entirely with songs
which the children cannot understand and
In tiholr place use familiar melodies to which
simple sentences have been arranged ,
thereby Interesting the children and Induc
ing them naturally to tnter Into the pplrlt
ot the words and to expcess their feelings
by the manner of their song. She gave ex-
amplea by singing dancing1 eongs and others
which are easy for the young to learn , yet
carrying an object leeaon.

MAKYVILLE , Mo. , Feb. 15. ( Special. )
Harry H. Kerr , a Maryvlllo young man
who Is n _ mcm'ocr of Company L , Third
United States artillery , now In the Philip
pines , forecasted with remarkable accuracy
the events of the last few daja there In n
letter written January 2 , which has Just
been received horo. After describing at
some length Agulnaldo's advisers , their aims
and characters , ho said :
"In this sketch of Agulnalilo's generals
and intimate associates I ha\o tried not to
bo prejudiced against the insurgent leaders ,
but my conclusions are that many of them
are greatly In need of education. Most of
them nro honest , niany nro rascals of the
worst typo and all need to learn much of
the art nnd science of war. If they nro
ever engaged in deadly conflict they will
bo found wanting in the commonest class
of military movements aud will have their
followers slaughtered like sheep In a butcher
pen. All they know about war Is what
they have learned in resisting the Spanish ,
nnd that war was nothing but guerrilla war
fare of the most barbarous sort. To como
out and meet n foe on an open battlefield
would be n now oxperliaco to them , nnd
after they have had a taste of It they will
not bo Inclined to face tbo muslo again.
After ono or two brushes with the American
soldiers I think they will take to the woods ,
and conduct a guerrilla warfare. If they
do we T111 have n hard and dangerous time
fighting them. "

In a contempt proceeding based on the
alleged violation of a judicial order , such
older may bo examined only with n view
to ascertaining whether It was * coram
judlce. No mere error or Irregularity
therein , or In tbo proceedings leading
thereto , excuses Its disobedience ,
2 A writ of habeas corpus , allowed by
competent authority , may not be disre
garded because allowed on an Insufficient
petition. A writ so allowed is not there
fore void
3. Although our habeas corpus Act requires
a writ to be directed to the sheriff , whcro
tliir person charged with an unlawful re
straint Is not an officer charged with the
tuttody of lawful prisoners : still the court
or Judge In vacation , who has Jurisdiction
of the proceedings , may , when such writ
pro\r unavailing to produce the prisoner ,
require by ordr apy party to the prooe.ed-
ing who is shown to have control of the
prisoner , to produce his body ,

< ldent to every judicial tribunal , derived
from its very constitution , without any < x-
priss statutory aid , and may generally be

C. Contempt proceedings may be punltly *
merely , or they mnv bs remedial , to compel
obedience to an older for the tlmo resisted ,

to that jurisdiction to hear anil determine

7. The power to punish for contempt being
restricted to the tribunal whoso authority
Is defied. It Is not error for n Judge who ,
within his authority has made an order In
vacation , to refuse to transfer to another
Judge for hearing a proceeding In contempt
based on the dlsob'dlenco of such order
8. If the terms of tin information In con
tempt clearly show that the net complained

1. Whether the title , to the testator's real
estate vests at bis death in his executors
or heirs Is not to be determined solely by
the presence In , or absence from , the. will
of tome particular words or conveyance , but
determined ED as to accord with the testa
tor's Intention as deduclble from an exam
ination of the entire will.
2. The presumption Is tnat the executors
are Invested with sueb power nnd all the
power necessary to enable them to- carry
out the testator's intention with reference
to the deposition directed by him to bo.
made of his property.
3. The -will of a testator directed his ox-
ccutors to pnv hi" debts out of his personal
CHtat" and if thaf'provpd Insufficient "lo
sell nnd oonvev" his re.il estate for that
purpose ; nnd , "to sell nnd convey" his real
estate nnd pay the proceeds over In certain
proportions to certain heir * Held : That
the legal title to the ical estate of the testa
tor vpstcsl on his death In bis executois.
4. The executors of sucri will conveyed
the testator's real estate to one of his heirs
upon the sole consideration that she would
mortgage It to recuro monQy for the use of
the executors and then re-convey to the ex
ecutors subject to suoh mortgage. This was
done. Held : That the transaction between
the executors nnd heir was not n sale and
convevanc * within the moaning of the will
B. The will gave the executors power to
convey the real estate onlv to an actual
bonn fide purchaser thereof.
C The conveyance by the executors to the
he.lr was a voluntary one ; and , ns to her
nnd her grantees with notice , void nt the
suit of the oitatc nnd Its creditors and nt
the suit of prior Judgment creditors of the
bl > ncficlarlps of such estate.
7. One who took from such heir a mort
gage on the , real estnto BO conveyed to her
by the executors , having Knowledge at the
tlmo that the heir had not actually pur
chased such real ntntc ; or one who , having
knowledge of such facts In the premlRes ns
ought lo put a prudent man on Inquiry ns
to the character of tbo heir's title , took
Hiirh mortgage wl.tnout inquiry , when n
reasonable investigation would bavo re
vealed the defect In the heir's title , Is not
a subsequent Innocent purchaser nnd enti
tled to protection ns such.
8. That one Is n subsequent innocent pur
chaser of real estate Is nn affirmative defense -
fense , which the claimant to avnll htmr If
of , must plead , and upon him Is the burden
of proof to establlch It.
0 One , who claims the protection of the
rule applicable to mibsequcnt Innocent pur
chasers without notice Is not relieved frnm
the duty of nlllrmntlvfly pleading and
proving the farts , which hp claims nhow
him to be such Innocent purchaser l eniun
ho claims under tbo viidee of nn r-xpcutor ,
and the conveyance from such executor
Is attacked by the Judgment creditors of
the beneficiaries of the trust pinperty an

bo an Innocent purchaser.

legal tltlo to his real estate In his exec
utors and directs them to sell and convey I
It and piy the proceeds over In certain
proportions to certain heirs the Interest of
such liclrf In such procrcda Is property.
11. Hut tlio heirs have no Interest In the
real estate as such ; and , It cannot be
seized on attachment by their creditors
nor Is a Judgment against them a Hen
tlipreon.
12. The district courts of the state nro
Invested with ample powers to enjoin exec
utors from dl\ortlng trust property ; to
annul conveyances made by them without
consideration In violation of the trust ; nnd.
on application ot a prior Jmlijmeiit creditor
of a beneficialy of such trust property ,
when mich creditor ban exhausted his legal
remedies , to compel the Interest of such
beneficiary lu such property. If not n-
empt , to bo ripplled to the payment of
his debts.
13. The presumption is that a will which
simply clothes executors with power "to
sell and convey" tbo testator's real estate
for paying debts and make distribution of
the remaining proceeds to certain persona
does not confer on the executors the power
to mortgage such real estate.
11 Hut such presumption may bo over
thrown when an examination of the whole
will shows that the disposition directed
by the testator to be made , of his property
IB of such a chaiactor as authorizes the
inference that it was the testator's Inten
tion that bis executors should have power
to mortgage his estate.
15. When executors of a will have In
dividual Interests In the testators prop
erty , whether a conveyance mndo by them
shall bo construed as an execution of the
trust or a conveyance of their Individual
Interests Is a question of Intention ; and
if from the comeyanco Itself It Is apparent
that It was Intended as an execution of the
trust In pursuance of the will it will bo
so construed.
IG. Whcio a trustee wrongfully makes a
voluntary gift or conveyance of trust prop
erty whether a subsequent creditor of the
beneficiaries of such trust property may
successfully Invoke the aid of a court of
equity to annul the wrongful disposition \
made of the trust fund , to restore , It to '
the trustees and cause It to be applied
to the payment of debts of the bene
ficiaries , not decided.
17. Tlie doctrine or ruleof subrotmtlon Is
not a fixed and Inflexible rule of law or
equity ; It does not owe its origin to
statute or custom ; it is n creature of the
equity courts Invented and applied by thorn
to do Justice or prevent an injustice being

particular state of facts whcro the law is

IS. A testator directed his executors to
