"On lliCLE Pacific Mail Is To Have a Competitor In the GovernmentPresent Service to Canat Zone Inadequate freight, say the department officials, and the government has instructed A. L. Bristow, special commissioner who has already been in this city, to inquire concerning the materials that Pacific coast points can furnish for canal use.

He has sent letters to the chambers of commerce of San Francisco, Portland, Seattle and Ta coma, in which the purpose of the war department is made known. A greas, stir will be caused all over the Pacific coast and also in the inner councils of the Pacific Mail steamship company by this move. To Demonstrate 'interest. In Wall street and elsewhere the purpose of the government may be construed to be a part of the cam paign which President Roosevelt is waging to secure better transporta tion service by various means. This will stimulate national interest in the ultimate outcome and also in the in cidental developments by the way.

Commissioner Bristow, in addition to informing the commercial bodies of the Pacific coast of the idea enter tained by the war department, has sent out a great number of carefully prepared questions, the answers to which will reveal the attitude of the I buisinessmen towards the proposition of governmental competition in the sea carrying of government freights also will give the government an inside view of trade conditions that have a bearing on canal construction. Ordinarily the competition might not be considered by the Pacific Mail steamship company and the Harriman interests generally to be very formid "Mala 104 tteiidencfp lf Carrying by- government Phone.

Oct. IS. The Pacific Mail steamship company may have competition in the carrying trade between the isthmus of Panama and San Francisco at the hands of the United States government. The war department is not satisfied with the present service furnished by the Pacific Mail in the carrying of materials in both directions between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts for the construction of the Panama canal. Various excuses have been made by the Pacific Mail, but excuses do not carry snips could be confined to canal freights.

The situation Is changed materially when the coming of the great fleet of American battleships to this port and the establishment here of a great post for insular supplies, and also the intention of the government to make of the Presidio the foremost military in the United States are considered. Th volume of freight to be moved for the army and the navy will be great and increasing. This is foreseen by the war department officials and the fact is no less well understood by Harriman. Under existing conditions all freight in which the government is concerned in the directions indicated that cannot be moved by way of the is thmus naturally would be shipped by rail across the country. In this view of the case the competition that the government might put up would be not only against the Pacific Mail steamship company but would cut directly into the volume of transcontinental freight.

The merchants of San Francisco, Seattle, Portland and Tacoma will communicate with the war department through Commissioner Bristow. The list of questions that has been piopounded is so long and requires much research that no immediate answers may be returned. Xo information was given out at the chamber of commerce in this city about the matter, the communication of Bristow probably not having been considered by the trustees of that body, bnt the fact that Bristow has written to the coast commercial bodies.

C.

Matteson was last evening acquitted of the charge of selling milk containing formaldehyde, by a jury of 12 men who took less than an hour to arrive at the verdict. Matteson's case had excited considerable attention, the charge of selling drugged milk having been preferred against him some weeks ago by Dr. J. M. Hurley, city health officer, who claimed to have secured samples of milk frcm Matteson's wagon and found that it contained formaldehyde.

He also had1 Dr. S. M. Wood-bridge, a chemist of some note, make art examination of the milk, and he too testified that the dmg was found. The cse-was heard before Judge W.

E. W. Lightfoot, and was prose- "uteri by Attorney R. E. Swing on of the city, and Matteson was defended by Attorney R.

Hurley and Woodbridge took the stand for the prosecution and told of securing milk from Matteson, and upon analysis found that the bulk rhilk taken from a large can carried by Mr. Matteson on wagon con tained farmaldehyde, while a pint bot tle they secured seemed1 to be pure.

The former also testified that Matteson had some time previous objected to the agitation of the milk matter so much in the press, because he said it would hurt his business. Hurley told him, he testified, that he need have no fear if his milk was pure. On the cross-examination there were frequent clashes between Dr. Hurley and Attorney Bledsoe for the defense, the latter going into the mat-fer of the health officer being qualified to make a proper chemical analysis very carefully, some of the questions seeming to considerably nettle the doctor. Dr.

G. B. Rowell also testified as to the character of formaldehyde and Its effect on the human system. Da'H-yman'a Defense. For the defense Mr.

Matteson was the first witness, and denied absolutely that he had any knowledge of any preservative of any character being used in the milk he sold, saying that he used every possible endeavor to prevent anything of the sort. He said he purchased milk from a number of different dairymen in order to take care of his trade, but that he made! every effort possible to prevent these men from doping the milk, and he did not believe any of the milk he sold was impure in any way. Then Dr. Wesley Thompson was called, and stated that he had examined milk that was said to have been taken' from the same can as that secured by the health officer, and he found no trace of preservative of any sort. The testimony of several people who have used Mr.

Matteson's milk for three years and more was taken, and all expressed great satisfaction with the milk, declaring that it was the best they had ever used. Find For Matteson.
