Haywards the Favorite in the Con~ test to Secure the Next Session. — This is a holiday , CaL., Sept. 18 “allejo. Tt d as on every business day of the he townspeople are upon the streets 11 seem bent on enjoying themselves. Grand Council of the Young Men's e reconvened early in the morning d Fellows’ Hall. They went to work > the usual hour, so that their busi- ness could be finished in good time for the tion, which has marked the day as remembered in this city. . all discussion of institute laid aside until to-morrow; speechmaking and can g for officers were forgotten and the delegates went down to the wharf to receive and welcome excursior Alameda County and ighboring towns. When the visit- ors arrived thele wasa grand parade, and then the general jollification begar. The morning session was called to order by Grand President Frank Kierce of San Francisco, but before the Grand Council entered upon its deliberations Grand Secre- Geo d telegrams of eting and bearing blessings from Vicar- eral Louis de Schram of Vancouver, Vicar-General Grace of Sacra- mento and Bishop Lemmons of Victoria, B.C. They were heard with deep interest, and when theletter of Archbishop Riordan was read there was wild enthusiasm. In his cordial bishop wrote: mmunication the Arch- vc1sco, Sept. 17, and Secretary, Y. graieful to th ns on the occ y ¥y co end the members as my best wishes meeting. The .

Proposed amendments to the constitu- tion were taken up again and discussed for two hours, some of them evoking heated debates. Phil Sheridan Council proposed to amend the le refating to the general fund of the order.

Vancouver Council No. 155 offered an amendment to article two of the constitu- tion providing for a third grade of mem- bership for those living away from tne towns and places where councils exis members to pay $1 a year and to re- ceive the Institute Journaland to have the privilege of attending meeting, but with no right to vote orreceive benefits. It was lost. An amendment was adopted which pro- vided that only one grand director can be elected from the same subordinate coun- cil. This was offered in the interest of more equitable representation and met with general'approval. The country rep- resentatives grew enthusiastic over its suc- cess, as hitherto San Krancisco and the neighboring councils had more than their share of representation on the board of grand directors, for the reason that they were all close together and could attend meetings of the grand board. Now, how- ever, the country will likely have a good deal more than formerly tosay in the man- agement of the Pacific Coast jurisdictior: of the institute. The Grand Council adjourned to meet the excursion boats and participate in the parade. When the ferry steamer Amador arrived she brought large delegations from Benicia and Port Costa, which were accom- panied by ladies and children. They were met at the dock_by members of Vallejo Council and the Vincentian Cadets. Soon afterward the steamer Mary Garrett ar- rived from San Francisco with more than a thousand visitors. Company A, League of the Cross Cadets, with a band, escorted the delegates from the metropolis. A pro- cession was formed on Georgia street, the main thoroughfare of the city, and with- out much delay moved uptown between two solid lines of spectators. Grand Marshal John J. O'Brien of San Francisco and Joseph Clavo of the Vallejo Council led the parade. The band from the Independence training-ship was first in line, and immediately behind came Vallejo Council with American flags and Y. M. I. banners waving in the breeze. Then came the grand officers and delegates numbering about 300 in all. Benicia Council was next in line, march- ing to the field music from Benicia Bar- racks. Port Costa Council was with them, making a phalanx of stalwart young men that stretched along two blocks four deep. St. Vincent's Academy, Vailejo, a ‘com- i in the gray uniform of mili- s, paraded and passed through evolutions under command of Sergeant James Ryan, U. 8. M. C. The San Francisco band followed, with Company A, League of the Cross Cadets, close benind, company front. They es- corted the city delegations, which were out in large numbers. Haywards there with every member of its council who could leave home. It carried its institute banners and American flags and proudly displayed badges that all could see and read, for Haywards wanted to impress the delegates favorably. Even the ladies from that enterprising town walked in the parade, for which they were aJ:plnuded along the route. Visitors and “‘citizens in carriages’ brought up the rear. ‘When the head of the procession reached Georgia street—the central point of Vallejo — a stirring ceremony took the town completely by surprise. The Inde- pendence band halted and wheeling half around played “The Star-spangled Ban- ner.” As the first inspiring notes filled the air there wasa boom of cannon, and the stars and stripes, which had been banging in a knot at a masthead on the corner, was unfurled. As the band played on, all heads in the long line of varaders were uncovered and the cannon roared its approval. The sa- lute was glorious, After paying this revenues from the | i | | | i | | | | | | | tribute to *Old Glory” the procession moved along the main streets to St. Vin- cent’s Church, and countermarching at that point returned to Georgia street, where it disbanded. Suddenly. the streets were deserted, for the next very pressing order of business was luncheon, and that over the visitors spent the afternoon in Mare Island or dancing in Armory and Farragut halls. Most of the excursionists returned to their homes, though quite a large number re- mained to enjoy the open-air concert given by thy ndependence band, under the di- T liur.,‘x Professor Contrado, in the even- ing. (fiul\' ne contest of interest to the dele- gates has so far shown itself in the Grand Council, and_that is the fight for grand president. There are three candidates in the field. John Lynch of Oakland, who has been grand tre: r for vears and an active worker in the institute, is se the honor. He has a strong. following. Edward I. Sheehan, a pioneer member ac- E e e R power, and Samuel J. Haskins, an earnest and al- together enthusiastic man in_the Young Men'’s Institute ranks, also desire the hon- orable position. Frank B. Hooson and Frank erry, who represent Haywards Council, have | made a good fight for their town, and ex- pect to get the next Grand Council. Ha; wards has done so well with 1its liberal | offers and other inducements that there is scarcely a dissenting voice in the council against giving it the next session. But to | keep up interest in the question and to have all the fun possible out of it Stockton | and San Rafael have been thrown into the conflict. K NEW LUMBER COMBINE, Redwood Manufacturers Com- plain They Do Not Make Living Prices. A Ralse of Two Dbliars Per Thou- sand Will Benefit Employes and Not Be Felt by Buyers. The market for redwood lumber has for a number of years been in such a condition that owners and manufacturers sold lum- ber at less than the actual cost of cutting and milling. There is at present $50,000,- 000 invested in the business and probably 15,000 men directly employed in lumber manufacturing. Four counties of Cali- fornia—Humboldt, - Sonoma, Mendocino and Del Norte—furnish the entire redwood supply for the world. It is purely a Cali- fornia industry, and the money invested in it and dis:rignted by it benefits Califor- nia alone. Several lumber firms were interviewed vesterday with regard to the rumorof a union of the different lumber manufac- turing companies. Although none desire to be quoted nearly all say that such a movement would be of vast benefit to the owner, the employes and 1indirectly to the State itself. They emphasize the fact that no combination in the accepted meaning of the word is intended. They simply desire to effect a union in order to obtain ing prices In answer to the question, “What would prevent such a consolidation raising prices to an exorbitant degree?” the answer came invariably: “Such impossible. rises above a reasonable price pine lum- ber will come into competition and force a reduction.” The manufacturers claim a raise not to exceed $2 per thousand is contemplated, and while this advance would be insignifi- cant to the buyer, the owner and hard- working employes would be greatly bene- | fited. Last year a union of all but two | firms was effected, but the two were able | to prevent better prices. | Several plans have been formulated and discussed by representatives of the several The suggestions for the | | B. C. Williams of the Mendocino Lumber | Company at a meeting of the manufac- | the tour counties, September 4, | have received much favorable eriticism. | His idea is to divide the total quotas | equally between the northern and south- ern lumber districts, three-fifths of the | market supply being drawn® from the | southern and two-fifths from the northern, } thus making the proportion of rough and clear lumber more in conformance to the market demand. This will necessitate some of the northern mills to remain idle to the extent of 16,000,000 or 20,000,000 of their quotas; but they will be compensated from the general fund of the company and will derive the same profit as though run- ning. PRAYERS FOR THE POPE. A Special Mass Will Be Celebrated at Notre Dame des Victoires To-Morrow. At the French church of Notre Dames | des Victoires to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock will be celebrated a special mass in accordance with the Pope’s request that prayers be offered in all Catholic churches as a protest against the celebration of the taking of Rome by Victor Emmanuel and the unification of Italy. Ij accordance | with the Pope’s request Cardinal Gibbons directed that prayers offered in all the | Catholic churches in his jurisdiction. One | of the assistants of Rev. Henri Audifried, | pastor of Notre Dame des Victoires, last evening said: ‘‘Archbishop Riordan did not return in time to direct that such prayers be offered | here, and this act on_our part is purely voluntary. Prayers will be offered for the | freedom of Rome and the return of the | Pope to temporal power there. Father Audifried will make a few remarks only.” THE HALF-MILLION OLUS. Director Julian Sonntag Has Sent in His Resignation. There was to have been a meeting of the directors of the Half-million Club yester- day, but there were not enough present to form a quorum. However, there were enough present for Director Julian Sonn- tag t0 present his resignation as a director. He stated that he was not able to attend to the work of the club without neglectin, his_private business, which he said ha suffered in six weeks to the amount of sev- eral thousand dollars. The fact is Mr. Sonntag is not wholly satisfied with the way the club’s business is being conducted. "He sail “Its man- agement is decidedly unbusinesslike. It is absurd to ask business men to neglect their own affairs and go running around town attending to committee work. In order to make the club successful its mem- bers should subscribe enough money to pay for the services of several good, ener- etic men, who will attend to all of the usiness, the same as the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Association has done.” ———————— 1road Telegraphers. Sen Francisco Division 170 of the order of Railway Telegraphers met last evening, and it was reported that the union is stronger now than ever before, and it is in its tenth year of existence. First Assistant Grand Chief M. M. Dolphin hes gone to Portland, and he will make & trip throughout the Northwest, alter which he will go East. While in the North- west he will organize a new division and give general instructions in the secret work of the order. Where the new division will be organ- ized is not yet made public. —————— Tomlins Will Conduct. A grand choral concert will be given this evening at Metropolitan Temple under the direction of W. L. Tomlins. The programme will embrace choruses from Hlnsels “Mes- sieh,” including the “‘Hallelujah” chorus, part songs and other choral selectiuns and solos by Mrs. Carmichael Carrp Lonis Heine and Sig- mund Beel. ..

HONORS TO MISS HOLBROOK. Whereabouts of Well-Known Peo- ple—Party on the Monowal. Weddings. Owing to the very delightful weather which September is affording many so- ciety people are still missing from town and are lingering at the seashore, in the mountains or at their attractive country seats near San Francisco, where it seems difficult for them to tear themselves away, and where enjoyment and pleasure have driven away all thougbts of the early autumn, when it will be necessary to take up the onerous duties of housekeeping and its train of cares. Sunday is a very quiet day vet, and little or no calling has as yet been done. Just at present every one is interested in October weddings, and not a few dinners and many luncheons have been given in honor of the prospective brides and grooms. Quite a number of luncheons were given to Miss Holbrook also a theater party, followed at the Palace by Miss Hough- by a suppe: ton.

A very spirited cotillon was danced, and the young guests seemed to enter thoroughly into the spirit of the occasion. The Loop and confetti | figures were the most successful ones ever | danced here. Miss Morgan’s cotillon will long be remembered and talked about by her many friends.

SOME OF THOSE PRESENT. A Brilllant Soclety Event, Which Was Attended by Many Debutantes. The event of the week, if not of the sea- son, was the reception given by the com- mander-in-chief; of the Pacific station, the captain and officers' of ‘the flagship Philadelphia in honor of the officers and ladies of the Presidio yesterday afternoon from 3 to 6 o’clock on board the Philadel- phia, which came down from Mare Island a few days ago and is now off Mission-street wharf. The guests were met at the Clay-street wharf by representatives from the flagship and were conveyed thither by the tug 8 o'clock. The parlors were handsomely dec- Active and a number of the ship’s launches 80 terribly crushed that Dr. Weil found it necessary to amputate it. The motorman, G. H. Lucas, 460 Chenery street, surrendered himself at the Southern police station. He was booked on the charge of battery and was released on his own recognizance by Captain Wittman, L0S ANGELES OIL. It Will Probably Be Sent to This City for Fuel. The San Francisco capitalists who are interested in the Los Angeles Oil Ex- change expect to begin operations before very long. The Los Angeles well-owners sent three men to interest capitalists in & scheme for the introduetion of crude oii into this city for fuel purposes. They said that at least half a million dollars would be required to run a pipe line eighteen or twenty miles to San Pedro, build oil reser- voirs at that point and in San Francisco, and to secure tank steamers to run be- tween the two places. An expert was sent to Los Angeles to examine into the oil wells with a view of ascertaining the quality of theoil and the probabilities of the supply warranting such an outlay of money. The expert has recently returned and has made a generally favorable report. He says that the oil is excellent for heating but that it is of no_account for other pur- poses. So far as he can determine the supply is almost without Iimit. In and around Los Angeles there are 210 wells and one “spouting” well. These yield between 3000 and 4000 gallons daily, but many are i g Y RECEIVING THE GUESTS UNDER A CANOPY OF FLAGS ON BOARD THE FLAGSHIP pHinapereaia.

Brigadier-General R. H. Warfield Accompanled Him Part of the Way. Commander C. H. Stockton of the United States navy arrived in the City on last | night’s train from the East, accompanied by Brigadier-General R. H. Warfield. He is on his way to take charge of the cruiser Yorktown of the Asiatic station. The Yorktown is a six-gun ship of the | same class as the Bennington. She is now | at €hefoo, on the North China coast. Commander Stockton came direct from | Newport, where he had been attached on land duty to the Nzval War College as | lecturer for the past four years. He was | in command of the Thetis on this coast— | on Puget Sound—four years ago. ! He graduated from the old naval college at Newport thirty years ago, and is one of | the most popular officers in the service, | going to Admiral Carpenter's squadron | with the best of credentials. Brigadier- | General Wartield happened to be return- | ing from the Grand Army Encampinent at | Louisville, and got on the train at Colorado Springs. | *“My going to the Yorktown is purely a | routine change,” was the modest way in | which Commander Stockton put it, when | seen at the California HoteF last night | shortly after his arrival. ““I go to relieve Commander William M. Folger, who was formerly chief of the Bu- reau of Ordnance. It just happened that his term of service on sea had expired, and likewise mine on land, and I was first on the list for sea duty. I intend to sail on Saturday on the steamer Rio de Janeiro, if nothing prevents.” As to any plans for the future Com- mander Stockton said that there were none out of the ordinary, as far as he knew. The Yorktown would probably re- main where she is [t had been found necessary to keep her there since the war, and he knew of no other orders. ——————— Excursion to San Lorenzo.

The music for the dancing was particularly good, she punch the best ever made and the refresh- ments delicious. The uniforms of the officers of the navy and army.were partic- ularly attractive. Society was well represented, and there must have been at least from 300 to 400 people present, among them being several of ithis and last season’s debutanies. Of course there was dancing and the decks were beautifully prepared for this most delightful amusement. Among the season’s debutantes were: Miss Allen, Miss Rose Hooper, Miss. Mary Kip, Miss Frances Currey and several others. One of the prettiest girls on board was Miss Carey, daughter of Captain Carey of the Monowai. ‘Among the guests were: _General J. W.
