4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, JUNE 11, 1895 —— e e P i el e el i b N et b i o il el b el st b L s s e e S e e T e MISS SHAW WILL SPEAK. She Will Be Given a Place on the Fourth of July Programme. DOCTOR FITCH GIVES 4WAY. He Explains Why the Suggestion of Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper Was Ignored. All is again peace and harmony with the people who are endeavoring to give San Francisco the greatest Fourth of July cele- bration it has ever had. The question of authority between the executive and lit- erary committees, which involved the placing of the name of the Rev. Anna Shaw on the literary programme, I been settled, and Miss Shaw will speak for half an hour tc the audience that gathers in the Woodward’s Gardens pa- vilion on the Nation’s natal day, eschew- ing, however, all reference to the question of woman’s suffrage. After baving made two requeststo the literary committee to place the name of Miss Shaw on the programiue, as suggested by Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper, the executive committee on Sunday sent a peremptory order to the literary committee to the same effect. In reply to this last communication, the literary committee yesterday sent the fol- lowing letter to Charles J. King, president of the Fourth of Ju. ebration: Sir: The literary co ¢ of the Fourth of y celebration is in receipt of a letter from a -ordinate branch, purporting to emanate irom the exec: nitte mmanding it 10 place a 1 instructing it mmittee, and re ntiv cise a meeting of this it o meet the ex- ock this evening. As we understand it the literary committee linate b 1 of the exécutive work ¢ for the proper commemoration of our natal day. 1t is a separate end Independent dspartment of that work, neither superior nor subordinate to any other co-ordinate branch. It derives its powers from the sume appointing power and holds its position until the objects for which it was called rer are accomplished. Kno ing these facts and relying upon a faithful con- tinuance of the work ‘aiready 1aid out and so auspiciously commenced, we shall thus con- tinue to strive to make this celebration or that every American citizen may be proud of. Whenever & co-ordinate branch of this celebration desires or indicates a desire to confer with us, we would willingly and cheer- fully inconvenience ourselves to meet and con- fer; but whenever a minority of eight in any co-ordinate branch arrogates to itself inquisi- torial powersand addresses thiscommittee in a manner exposing a lack of courtesy and good breeding, & proper regard for our own seli- respect constrains us to decline a meeting upon such conditions. The day we are all endeavoring to appro- priately celebrate is of itself a public remon- strance against inquisitorial or dictatorial methods of way kind. either by church, state or individual. Tr g that our coming celebration may not be interrupted by any disturbing compli- cations, we remain, your obedient servants, GEO. L. Frrcs, M.D., chairman. AUS, {. HOEFLER, F. M. Hatch, RICHARD LAMBERT. Immediately on the receipt of this com- munication Mr. King called upon Dr. Fitch and requested him to ask the liter- ary committee to meet the executive com- mittee in an executive conference last night. His request was complied with, and the conference took place in the rooms of the celebration committee in the Mills building. It continued for two hours. The question discussed was the relative powers of the two bodies. After the dis- on had continued about an hour and f the literary committee asked per- on to retire for a time, which was granted. When they returned the follow- ing letter was handed by Dr. Fitch to Chairman W. H. Davis of the executive committee: Dear Sir: Our comn evening, having known before from the committee of one hun the literary committee i pmmittee of the executive commitiee and subordinate thereto, in the interest of harmony we will fol- low out the rules laid down by the executive committee and at our next meeting will adopt some method by which we can make room for Miss Anna H. Shaw in the literary exercises. Very respectiully yours Dr. GEorGE L. Frrem, Chairman Literary Committee, The reading of this peace-restoring letter was greeted with three rousing cheers. At no time dia the discussion partake of an_acrimonious character, the issue being decided on the ground that the ex- ecutive committee was the legislative body of the celebration and the literary com- mittee one of its sub-committees. During the entire period of the confer- ence a large delegation of ladies, including Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper, Mme. L. A. Sorbier, and others prominent in the woman’s suf- frage movement, sat in the anteroom of the committee anxiously awaiting the re- ittee, in meeting this 1 hat was not nlations made by namely, that desire to send their children to see the Fourth of July parade and to participate in the festivities in Golden Gate Park dur- ing the afternoon, communjcate with him as to the number of children they desire to send. Transportation and infor- mation will be sent to them at once. The grand_marshal reports that stable- men are holding up_prices for horses, and requests parties having horses for hire at reasonable rates to report to him. The printing committee met yesterday and resolved to invite proposals from the leading printing establishments for fur- nishing 15,000 souvenir programmes for the Fourth of July, the programmes to be 6x81¢ inches in’ size, 16 pages, front and back to be illustrated in colors, made of 60-pound coated book paperor 8. S. & C. tint. Bids with and without advertising privileges. Also simple programme without adver- tisements. Also 500 and 1000 full-sheet posters in three colors. Proposals to be opened in committee on June 14, at4 p. M., and to be accompanied by a certified check for 25 per cent of the amount of the bid. At the meeting of the committee on dec- orations yesterday afternoon bids were presented for the grand arch which it is proposed to erect on Market street, be- tween Thira and Fourth, and also the in- terior decoration of the pavilion in Wood- ward’s Garden, where the literary exer- cises are to be held. George C. Brookes submitted a sketch of an arch whose chief feature is to be a statue of Washington on top of the center of the structure, which is designed to span the street from curb to curb, a dis- tance of eighty-five feet. Flohr & Sons, the sculptors, present ed designs for an arch whichis to_have a fig- ure of Columbia in the center, and the height of the arch from the ground to the top of Columbia’s head is to be thirty feet. The fair goddess is to be flanked on each side with a grizzly bear. Laist & Schwardt wanted to provide an arch to span the entire street and with a height of twenty-tive feet. On each side of the top of the arch is to be a statue—one of Washington and the other of Lincoln. The front is to have panels of historical scenes. William H. Hamilton of Percy & Hamil- ton, arcnitects, proposes to make an arch with unique features. The main structure is to be aivided so as to have two center arches, each eight feet wide, and two outer arches, each about twenty feet wide. Itis to be! three stories high, having three bal- conies across its width. On the lower it is vroposed to have groups of children, who will sing patriotic songs while the parade is ll ng underneath the arch. On tae middle balcony will be a platform for tableaux, and on the upper will be a place for a band of musicians or a trumpeter, or a fife and drum. The wholeis to be illu- minated with 800 electric lights in red, white and blue, arranged so as to flash any col eparately or all together. Herman Jahn submitted designs for two arches. One was a huge single arch and the other had one large central arch and a smaller one on each side. The bids ranged all the way from $300 to $2100, including the cost for one night’s illumination. No decision was made as to which would be accepted, but Mr. Hamilton’s proposition met with the most fayorable consideration. ‘W. J. McKay offered to furnish suitable decorations for the pavilionin Woodward’s Garden, where the literary exercises are to be held, for $250. The next meeting of the committee will be held next Friday evening, when the written bids that have been requested from all the foregoing will be opened. At the meeting of the ladies’' finance committee the following stations were established, where books will be opened for popular subscriptions: Woman's Edu- cational and Industrial Union, 103 Van ss_avenue; W. C. T. U. headquarters, 32 McAllister street; Searby’s drug store, Sutter and Stockton streets; Miss Mason's art store, 943 Valencia street, corner Twenty-fi E. N. Cameron’s stores, 351 and 1825 Devisadero street; Wakelee’s Arng store, Sutter and Polk streets. The finance committee will meet Friday evening. BEFORE THE CRAND JURY, Mayor Sutro Explains His Con- nection With the Old Hall Deal. The Ferry Foundation and Other Important Matters Come Up for Consideration. The Grand Jury met in executive session last night. For nearly four hours they wrangled with witnessesjand the impor- tant report, finally adjourning near the midnight hour, until Wednesday. There were a number of important matters up for consideration, the examination of Mayor Sutro consuming a large part of the time. The ferry foundationiproblem also came up for an unusual amount of talk finally ending in a recommendation that will be pleasing to a majority of the people, and thoroughly dissatisfying to the contractors. It was sult of the session. ‘When it was announced to Mrs. Cooper, she said: “I am glad to hear that Miss Shaw will be allowed to speak, not for myself person- ally, but because it establishes a great principle in the cause for which she and all of her followers are so earnestly at work. Iam sure there will be no cause to regret giving her an opportunity of speaking.” Dr. Fitch was asked why he ignored Mrs. Cooper's original suggestion to place Miss Shaw on the programme. He an- swered : ““We thought two hours of literary ex- ercises were enough for the people. We had an embarrassment of riches in the way of talent, and the committee had the rogramme all made out when Mrs. ooper’s suggestion was proffered.” Then hesitating a moment, he added : “‘The truth is that I am most bitterly op- posed to this woman’s rights movement. i[ means the destruction of this nation. Let me quote you some figures to show you what has already been its results. “The census of Massachusetts for 1885 shows that 71.28 per cent of our native women in that State were childless. “The census for 1885 of New York showed that 25 per cent of the married women of that State were childless, 50 per cent aver- aged less than one child, and 75 per cent averaged only a trifle over one child each. If it were not for foreign immigration this land would be a howling wilderness in fifty years, if statistics are worth any- thing. The birth rate is far less than that of deaths. “I have just received a bulletin from the Census Bureau at Washington in which it is shown that 45 per cent of the males from 25 to 30 years of age are unmarried. The men are simply unable to get work. It is being taken away from them by the women. It is thus made impossible for them to think of getting married, when they find it difficult to properly maintain themselves. Their being thus forced to a state of bachelorhood means, in my opinion, the undermining of the social and moral fabric of the country and its conse- quent certain decline and ruin.”” The following letter sent yesterday in reply to a communication received from Mrs. Clark Burnham, secretary of the San Francisco Nursery for Homeless Children, is self-explanatory: < SaAN FrANCIS00, June 10, 1895. Dear Madam: 1am in receipt of your com- munication of June 8,4dn reference to the chil- dren of the San Francisco Nursery for Home- less Children. We shall be delighted to take care of all your childrenyou care to send, re- questing, of course, that you have sccompany them ladies in whose care they will remain during the festivities. Ina few da: send you further particulars in reference to transportation, ete. Very respectfully, Davip RIcH. David Rich, chairhan of the entertain- ment committee, wguld like to have all charitable organizagons and orphan asy- lums of San Francisco and vicinity who expected that the jury would hand in its final report to Judge Hebbard Wednesday, but last night’s work will probably entail an extra amount of labor, forcing the re- port over until Friday and possibly Mon- d ay of next week. Mayor Sutro was the first witness called, and for over an hour he endeavored to en- lighten the jury concerning the signing of the bill of sale of the old hall. Mr. Sutro was vigorously handled by the jury, nearly every member having something to say on the subject. For an hour and a half he was closeted with the jury, the substance of his explanation being that he did'what he thought was right. He did not re- member having promised not to sign the bill oi sale, and even if he did, a man was liable to chiange his mind. g Mr. Sutro explained that nearly all his work was done by clerks and 'that conse- quently he knew but little about details.The explanation offered by the Mayor did not satisfy the jury.and itis probable that a special report will be made censuring his action. The remainder of the night’s session was devoted to discussing the report and mak- ing several important changes. The ferry foundation, school board and other munici- pal matters were considered and several important changes made. The ferry foun- dation will be the subject of a special re- port, which doubtless will be an interest- ing document.

There has been | The Record Says Therels a Strong Likelihood That They Will Win the Chicago Match. CHICAGO, IrL, June 10.—The Record to-day prints the following: The athletic meetnext Saturday between the Chicago Athletic Association team and that of the University of California will be the grand finale of Western athletics for the season of 1895. In more than one re- spect the season has been one of the most successful the college world of the West has ever enjoyed. Records of all kinds have been treated with utter disregard for conventionalities, and even the East,which has always claimed superiority in college athletics, has had a chance to see what kind of athletes the West can produce. Crum’s performance in the Mott Haven games took the East by storm, and after a feeble protest the best authorities on ath- letics in the country admit that the Hawk- eye sprinter has, so far as known, no su- perior in America. California’s trip will probably have a beneficial influence in stimulating inter- collegiate contests between the Eastern and Western colleges. The trip of the Sun- set men is unprecedented in amateur ath- letics, and the wonderful showing they have made after having traveled thousands of miles will fill an interesting page in amateur athletics history, Taking intoac- count also that the team was composed of only eleven men, the record made by Cap- tain Koch and associates becomes the more interesting. In the Mott Haven games the visitors took fourth place, and with no pole-vaulter tied the Pennsylvania team. The rest of the trip for the team resemblesa triumphal march. Princeton, Union, Illinois and the ‘Western intercollegiate championships were taken, and there is a strong likeli- hood they may be successful against the strong men of the Chicago Athletic Asso- ciation next Saturday. Chicago will probably have the services of Crum, who is &8 member of the associa- tion. He should win both hurdles. The broad jump will probably go to California. In the running events the dark horses of the association are liable to upset calcula- tions to a great extent. The quality of both teams, however, should secure the support of all lovers of athletics. Taking it all in all the Western college world has taken a tremendous stride in all kinds of athletics during the season that will soon close, and many entnusiasts, probably not without reason, see but a short time intervening when the West will stand at the head of athletics in the coun- try.

They Want an Extra Sesslon of the Legislature Called to Stop the Contest. DALLAS, Tex.,2June 10.—The Dallas Pastors’ Association met in the Young Men'’s Christian Association building at 11 o’clock, with the Rev. S. B. Spraggins in the chair. The regular business was set aside and the Corbett fight taken up. The Rev. Mr. Spraggins of the Methodist church introduced the following resolu- tion: 'WHEREAS, We learn with shame and sorrow that it is proposed to hold within our midsta contest between two leading pugilists, and whereas such contests are brutal to an un- unspeakable degree, and whereas such a con- test will concentrate within our midst a horde of gamblers, thieves, pickpockets, thugs and harlots, whose presence even scattered throughout the country is a perpetual menace to the welfare of the community, and when concentrated here would debauch our city end State in an unlimited degree, and whereas, while we have the fullest confidence in the integrity, ability and courage of our chief executive, Governor Culberson, there is some doubt as to the adequacy of our statutes to enable the State authorities to effectually interpose to prevent the besmirching of the fair name of our city and State in the eyes of the civilized world in this matter, therefore, be it Resolved, That we express our most emphatic disapproval and abhorrence of the proposed abomination. Resolved, That we call upon the Attorney- General of the State for an opinion as to the power given in our lawsto the executive in the premises. They then ask the Governor if he finds the law inadequate to call an extra session of the Legislature to prohibit the fight. THE DAYS OF FORTY-NINE, Interesting Reminiscences Re- lated by Edgar Briggs Last Night. A Fine Programme Rendered In the Lecture-Room of Simpson Memorial Church. A large gathering of young people, with quite a complement of their elders, filled the lecture-room of Simpson Memorial Church last night. The occasion was an entertainment given by the Lyceum of the Epworth League. An entertaining programme had been ar- ranged and it lost nothing in the rendi- tion. The music and recitations were of a high order, and the audience was quick to give evidence of its approval. Following the devotional exercises there was a piano solo by Miss Harriett Rosen- thal, a recitation by Miss Estelle Hardy, vocal solo by Miss Stella Werner, reminis- cences of '49 by Edgar Briggs, soprano solo by Miss A. Jantzen and a quartet com- posed of Miss L. Gilliland, Miss A. Jant- zen, H. E. Spooner and Robert Duncan. The principal feature of the evening’s entertainment was the pleasing address of Edgar Briggs on “The Days of '49,” incor- porating many incidents and episodes of a highly interesting character. Mr. Briggs described the City of San Francisco as it was in the romantic and historical days following the gold discovery, the coming of the first family and the birth of the first baby. Owing to the sensitiveness of per- sons concerned the speaker forbore men- tioning the names of the first child’s par- ents, but _he proceeded to relate incidents connected with that historic occurrence which will serve to fix the identity of the child in the minds of the pioneer residents. “The child was born about Christmas time,” the speaker said, “‘and soon after the leading men of the town paid a visit to the mother and the wonderful infant. There were enough nuggets and pieces of money left in the improvised cradle where- in the baby reclined to defray the whole expenses of her rearing and education. “The first schoolhouse was built in the winter of '49. After the nucleus of the fnnd had been raised suflicient more money was obtained from the gamblers to com- plete the builaing and pay the salary of the teacher. E‘here were onli\; nine pupils, that beingall the white children we could gather together. The people of early San f‘mncisco—lhe San Francisco of ’49—were very well behaved. Iremember of but one murder that year, and stealing was wholly unknown. The only prome- nade at that time was along the water front where Commercial street now is, and as there were no sidewalks or graded streets the water front was the fashionable walk of the town. “I remember very well the first fire of any importance that occurred in ’49. We had no water, and we scooped up the mud in the streets and extinguished the flames by a unique plastering process. The only waterworks o{'the time consisted of a dun- colored mule, a Spaniard and four five- E:llon kegs of water strapped to the mule’s ck. The first church fair held in San Francisco was in Union Hall, now the old City Hall. The proceeds were devoted to the building of the first Presbyterian church of the times. About $12,000 was raised. One of the queer schemes adopted for ‘raising the wind’' was the writing of letters to the fair toffice, each person having to pay §1 before he could take out his letter. Some men received as hlgdh as twenty of those sive epistles; and as an evidence of the flush liberality of the times it may be mentioned that no one who had a letter addressed to him refused to take it ontand pay his dollar. Over 3000 was realized on Sx.e letters alone. The first church built was the old Baptist church on Washington street.”” Mr. Briggs tuongfin his reminiscences to a close with a reference to the gailant be- bavior of a volunteer rescuing Pnny that went to the aid of a number of starving immigrants near Slippery Ford, on the north fork of the American River. The evening’s entertainment was a suc- cess in every particular, and the members of the Epworth League haye reason to be proud of the growth of their organization. | —Washingtons i THE BAY DISTRICT TRACK, Every Race on the Card Taken by an Outsider in the Betting. SHEPARD SCORES ONCE MORE. Astride Miss Pollard, a 100 to 1 Shot, He Lands the Outsider Winner a Head. Joe Rose 1aid one bet of §750 to $10 against Miss Pollard. Through some hook or crook:Carmel &eems to forget to sulk of late. Mr. Macdonough hit the ring hard on the Carmel race, but returned some of the coin on the next event—the two-year-old run. In the absence of John Merrell, who is still confined on account of sickness, Dick Havey again wielded the starter’s flag, and his work was far above the average, he dispatching his fields in good order with but slight delay. John Humphrey put & good bet down on Theresa K, and the filly’s price going back in the betting scared him,so he went to the stand and consulted the judges, who no doubt threatened to do all sorts of awful things with Hinrichs, for the jolly-faced bookle returned to the ring with a satisfied smile on his fu_ce. How odd it would look to see Johnny betting on a dead one, Social cireles in jockeydom are greatly egi- tated over the rude interruption two of lts members received while enjoying a ride at the beach behind a spanking team and a double seater, with two loving Juliets, on Sunday. While the four little doves were cooing, listen- ing to the roar of the sad sea waves, their dream of love was suddenly broken by a man grabbing their horses by their heads. A second later another men stepped up and bade the young lady sitting in the rear seat to alight, in terms thai betokened anger in every breath. He alsoscored the other young miss soundly, but she nestled up close to her Charlieand preferred to remain with the pace she had set. Big brothers are a nuisance—sometimes, The card looked easy to beat, thought racegoers, and a goodly sized crowd hied themselves to the racetrack yesterday pre- pared for a tussle with ‘the bookies, in which they fully expectéd to come out on top. But they were disappointed; oh!so badly disappointed. The favorites were all barreled with all the latest finishing touches known to turfdom. And such shots as crossed the plate! all the way froma100to 1 down. It is said aman with small capital stands little chance of gaining affluence these days, but one dol- lar rightly in vested on the different events yesterday would have given a pauper money enough to break the bank at Monte Carlo. Young Shepard, who landed Marietta in front some weeks ago, again repeated the trick in the two-year-old race, a five-fur- long dash, this time with Miss Pollard. It was the third event on the card and Theresa K closed a 2to1 favorite, after opening at 7 to 5. The chief cause of this. was the heavy play on the Boots entry, Tiberius, who was backed down from 4 to 214t01. The other starters were Elsie, Virgie A, Linda Vista filly and Miss Pol- lard, the latter going to the post 60to1, although 100 to 1 was once obtamable. When Starter Havey dropped his flag Virgie A shot to the front, with the favor- ite at her heels, and the pace they set was a heart-breaking one. After entering the stretch a head in front, Virgie A tired of the game and gave up the lead to Theresa K, and Tiberius became the contending horse. The hot pace the first part of the journey had not failed to leave its effect on the leader, and a sixteenth from the wire she showed perceptible signs of weakening, and Hinrichs was urging her. Tiberius was also leg-weary, and nearly opposite the drawgate it suddenly dawned on Shepard that perhaps his mount, the brown Idalium filly, Miss Pollard, had a chance, so shutting both eyes and grasp- ing a tight hold on the saddle he gave the outsider highead and awaited results. He evidently thought a surprise party in store for him, for after pulling up and re- turning to the stand a glance at the num- bers was sufficient to tell him his fondest dream bad been more than realized, and a broad grin took possession of his face that will take days to eliminate. The outsider had put it on the favorite a head, with the “good thing,’” Tiberius, third. 0Old Regal, who was racing when Joe Hooker was a two-year-old, seemed to sud- denly become imbued with the springtime of life, for he led from start to finish in the opening dash_of five furlongs, winning in a walk with 7 to1 against him. Irma H, every now and then a *‘little sure,”’ backed from 8 to 4 to 1, was second, and Edna M third. The favorite, St. Elmo, was never in it. The second race on the card, a mile dash, was the source of much speculation. Charmer opened a 9 to 5 choice, but drifted back to 11 to 5 from the force of coin that went in on Mantell and Carmel, the latter's price coming down from 7 to 44 to 1. Rico, ridden by a stableboy, started out with a great show of speed, leading the first furlong, when Carmel went to the front_and was never headed, winning handily by two lengths from Charmer, who was about the same distance in front of Mantell. The roan sprinter, Tim Murphy, was an even money chance for the fourth race at five furlongs, but in his present form is very far from the Tim of old. When the flag fell the second choice, Fly, getting away third, rushed out in front with a tremendous show of speed and the field never got near him. He won by three lengths from Nelson in 1:003{, with Hu- eneme a fair third. The star favorite, Gracie 8, led all the way in the last race, a short six-furlong run, until within forty yards of the wire, when Crawford and Normandie passed her, the former winning by three-fourths of a length. The winner ‘was 10 to 1 in the betting. MULHOLLAND. SUMMAR® £ FraNcisco, June 10, 1895, 1019, FIRST RACE—Five furiongs: selling; « three-year-olds and upward; purse $300. Ind. Horse. weight, jockey.
