He said: 1 _have not come here for the purpose of king n speech, but for the purpose of stating at while I donot resent a mining always been in full sympathy your purposes from the beginning.

Ex-Secretary Ralston was then called to the platform by Chairman Neff, who after | some appropriate remarks tendered the diffident and blushing retiring officer as a marx of the association’s esieem with a | complete dinner, tea and desert service of | silver, comprising knives, forks and spoons, in & handsome cabinet.

Itis not, | however, a fight against the ra for the peopie of the siate s ily in sympathy with you ss I am with the farmers. Niles Searls of Nevada, in responding to the chairman’s invitation to address the conveation, took occasion to defend the memory of Senator A. A. Sargent from the aspersion, as he termed it, of having worked agai the interests of the miners atany time. He said he wounld as soon believe that Collis. P. Huntington had"| turned traitor to the Southern Pacific Com- pany; that W. H. Mills was found doing what he believed contrary to the interests of the company of which he was land agent, that Tammany refused to accept the spoils of office, as that Sargent had been recreant to the miner. J. M, Wright promptly took up the chal- lenge thrown down. He had made the charge which called forth the” generous defemse of Judge Searlsand in the most kindly way directed attention to the pampblet copy of a Land Office record which showed that Senator Sargent had acted inimically to the miners’' interests during the early seventies. He magnanimously assumed that Sargent might have made a mistake in the stand he took, but that he had of» posed the miners was a fact, he said. It was a matter of record. ntle peace seemed about to flee, but Chairman Neff in his characteristic, genial manner checked such a contretemps by | activel taking up the flow of oratory and carrying the mieeting to a happy and harmonious close with the following words: The business of the convention having been completed, I desire to congratulate you on the happy determination of the questions which have been submitted to you. We met here with a single purpose, and that was to advance the mining interests of this coast and in our humble way 1o attract the attention of capital- st 10 ons e Miners Association has accomplished a great deal for the mining indbstry.

With three rousing cheers for President Neff, the convention stood adjourned till its next annual meeting. 3 ion of the executive commit- ght, at which twenty-seven mem- bers were present, the financial condition of the association was under discussion, and the country members were urged to thoroughly explain the workings of the ssociation and that it requires means to ¢ out its plans. They l\rumisqd their support and to do all in their power to augment the strength and increase the usefulness of the organization. All ex- pressed themselves as being well pleased with the result of the convention and the year'sswork of the association. " Tt was decided to print the newly adopted constitution and by-laws and dis- tribute them through the county organi- zations, Messrs. Carrigan, Parsons and Sloss were appointed members of the auditing and finance committee. hear! - DR. PRICE INDIGNANT. He Explains a Telegram From Los Angeles Revoking His Creden- tlals at the Convention. Dr. J. C. C. Price, who was a delegate to the Miners' Convention from Los Angeles, said last evening that he desired to ex- in a telegram which appeared in yes- ) aminer stating that his creden- tials had been revoked. Mr. Price was much hurt that the tele- gram put him in the light of an English adventurer. “Itistrue,” said he, ‘‘that I am an Englishman, but I have been in the United States service for ten years, receiv- ing honorable discharge. I have the pa- pers to prove this. *I think the trouble count of the Pinther, Consolidated Mining the partners of that which I am connected, ments to the Los arisen on ac- Price Burnap Compan One of corporation, with made some state- Angeles Chamber of has | Commarce, or to the press, to stop any ne- gotiations I might make here for the work- ing of this mine. “Itis not true that my father is con- nected with the Bank of England, but he was director and cashier of the London and Midland Bank of Birmingham and London.

THE TRAFFIC ASSOCIATION MAKING A FIGHT FOR THE STATE N UTAH. The Traffic Association is vigorously prosecuting its work on behalf of San Francisco merchants who are struggling | against almost insurmountable odds for the trade of Utah. With the purpose of making a convincing showing for 1ts side of the argument, Traflic Manager Curtis has in preparation a schedule of rates be- tween Califgrnia and Utah, which, from his long experience as traflic expert of the Southern Pacific Company, he believes to be equitable, and in fact absolutely neces- sary for California to compete with the East in Utah. There will be a meeting of all the trans- Missouri lines leading into Utah, at Salt Lake City on the 28th inst. The object of this conference is to settle the rate d putes in Utah, in which the Union Pacitic denver and Rio Grande, Rio Grande West- ern, Colorado Midland, and Rock Ie and the Missouri nterested. These lmes s known as the Trans- Missouri Association. It isto their inter- est to keep all the freight business of Utah the Pacific side—that is, to s calculated to give Bastern or tern cities a monopoly of the busine The Centzal Pacific can only go as far as Ogden, its most easterly terminus, beyond which point joint es have not been made in favor of California shippers. But these® trans-Missouri lines have been v unpleasantly reminded from California of the possibility of a boycott. In this they are said by road men and shippers to be exceedingly vulnerable. They haul the greater portion of freight batween California and Eastern points, getting a good income from California roducts going to Bastern markets, and rom merchandise coming from centers of production bevond the Mississippi to this State. So much of this remunerative busi ness can be diverted to other lines by Cali. fornians that the trans-Missouri roads saw the necessity of making some amicable ar- rangements with the Central Pacific whereby California may have a fair chance in the Utah competition. That the Traffic Assoziation might re- ceive all the assistance sible from the merchants, the following circular was sent out yesterday by Traffic Manager Curtis: To Members—Attention is called to the pres- ent unsettled condition of rates from San Fran- ciseo to Utah. This association is taking the question up y and seeks 10 have these rajes reduced and placed on & stable b With this end in view a tariff is now being prepared, carrying such rates as would from our standpoint be consistent. In order that all may receive proper repre- sentation it is asked that each-member of this association state in a communication to the undersigned what the articles are which you | now door which under more favorable rates Jou could suip to Utah in competition with the Sast. It is state with what point in the as the tariff from San Francisco will be based on that competition. 1t is necessary that you take up and handle this subje all the data must be inand systematized in ample time to permit proper presentation of our case before a meeting ot the reilroads in- terested to be held in Salt Lake City, Utah, the 28th day of this month. Your replies should therefore be in my hands not later than the 20th inst. Yours tru WILLIAM BOSTWICK CU Trafic Manager. Mr. Curtis will probably go to Salt Lake and present the Traflic Association tariff and arguments in person. o 1s She Insane? Mrs. Catherine Rose, wife ol Alfred H. Rose, ex-Commissioner of Public Works, . wealthy resident of Colusa, was found wandering aim- lessly about on Market street, near Sacramento, on Tuesday morning by Policeman Whittle. She appeared to be demented and the police man sent ber 10 the Receiving Hospital in the patrol-wagon. She had not been long there hen her husband called and took her to the - Nicholas Hotel, where she has been living. Her mental condition will probably be investi- gated by the Insanity Commissioners. —— o A Silent Appeal for Help. When your kidners and bladder are inactive they are making a silent appeal for help.

The Pullman palace car bearing on its sides the legend, “‘Comiskey’s St. Paul and Barnes’ All-America Baseball clubs,” made a graceful curve around the pier and was caught neatly on the Oak- land mole, and a half hour later the first | wave of the Dast's baseball fever washed over San Francisco.

All of the traveling willg be in boats, and much of the way will be through canyons or desert country. At present the only benefit from improving the river would be to the miners and the mining camps among the mountains in the head waters. DID NOT WANT TO MARRY. Story of a Girl Who Wedded Two Months Ago. The marriage of Jennie Schneider, a bride of less than two months, is going to be inquired into by the courts. According to the story told by her friends she was brought here from Poland scme months ago by her brother-in-law, H. Greenbaum of 345 Third street. Soon after Morris Misrowsky, a tailor at 1050 Howard street, saw the girl. He knew Greenbaum very well and between them it was agreed that Misrowsky should marry the child. She is not yet 14 years old, her friends claim. about the matter, but was told to prepare for the ceremony on August 27. On that date thethree proceeded to the County Clerk’s office and Misrowsky asked for a license. He declared the girl was 17 years of age. Greenbaum represented himself as her guardian and gave his consent to the mar- riage. Ogn this showing the license was 1ssued and the couple went before Justice of the Peace Groezinger and were married. A few days later the girl escaped from JOHN BARNES. CHARLES COMINSKEY.

Rockwell and a number of news- | paper men boarded the train at that place | and accompanied the party to Market | street. | “We have been treated rovally all the | way across the country,” said John S. | Barnes, the manager of the San Francisco | team. “We left St. Paul September 22; | at Portland the Elks turned out 1000 strong to meet us. We played during the trip just seventy-five games. Coming through dixon last evening the boys fired their re- volvers and shotguns out of the windows to welcome Billy Hulen.” | Mr. Rockwell has filled the position of | | local agent for the league during their trip | and will continue in the same capacity for | the season. The first series of games be- | tween the Oakland and San Francisco teams will take place at Central Park the following Saturday, Sunday, Wednesday and Thursday, aind the Los Angeles and an Jose® clubs will play at San Jose the me days. The two latter elubs will ar- ve in this City to-morrow via the south- ern route. During the season, which ends Decem- ber 12, sixty games will be played.

Mr. Barnes has had a flattering offer to visit Europe next summer to interest the people there in the game, but will prob- | ably remain in California. Charley Comiskey, one of the famous American players, the manager and owner of the Oakland team, who has the enviable | reputation of having received a larger sal- in one year than any other man in the business, was at one time captain of the | St. Louis Browns, and later captain of the Cincinnati team. | Among the star players of the Oakland | team are: Charlie Irvin, a California boy, the great shortstop who has lately been | soid to Cincinnati for next year; Jim | Burns, the noted center-fieider who has played with all the leading clubs of the country, and Tony Mullane, the great Cin- | cinnati pitcher, otherwise known as “ Handsome Count” Mullane; Tim O’Rourke, the widely known third base- | man, and Captain Jack Pickett, who is un- | excelled on second. In the San Francisco team are: Tom Powers, who played at Syracuse last sum: mer and Charley Frank, who led the Western League in hitting last year; Joe Stearns, better known as “‘Drei socker,” and Pete Sweeney, a California boy, who | layed last year at Rochester; Billy Hulen, | amous over the United States; Chic | Fraser, one of the leading Western pitchers; | |and Joe Werrick, who was captain last | year of the Minneapolis team. i A four-in-hand met the party at the ferry and carried them to their head- | quartersat the Langham Hotel. During | | the afternoon the members visited the grounds at Central Park. and in the even ing attended the Orpheum on a special in- vitation from the manager of that theater. TO EXPLORE THE COLORADO. Army Officers to Report Upon the Con- dition of the River. Lieutenant Charles L. Potter of the United States engineer corps has started for the Colorade River, whizh he bas been ordered to examine. A bill was passed by the last Congress ordering a preliminary examination of the river and of its fitness for commerce, and in pursuance of this Lieutenant Potter is now on his way to the Colorado. The river has been explored before with just such an object in view, but there has never yet been a report submitted upon which Congress would order any work done. The river is shallow and the chan- nel shifting in some places, and in others narrow, swift and deep, and very much ob- structed. Lieutenant Potter has with him Lieu- tenant M. F. Davis of the Fourth Cavalry. They will goto the Needles, and from there will have boats and guides sent to the ex- | treme head of navigation, which is about ¥ | San Francisco Com- LTom money in_banks of California | her husband’s home and sought friends They engaged Attorney Tomsky to have tne ceremony annulled. Criminal pro- ceedings will also be instituted against Greenbaum and Misrowsky. The girl says Greenbaum threatened to kill her if she refused to marry Misrowsky. She gives that as a reason for making no protest before the County Clerk or Judge Groezinger. It is said that Greenbaum is not the guardian of the girl. EUNUITIUNMH'E BANKS, THE COMMISSION'S REPORT SHOWS A BIG INCREASE OF RESOURCES. IT URGES A SEPARATION OF SAVINGS Banks—WouLp Not ForceE SALES. The report of the Bank Commissioners for the year ending June 30 has just been made to Governor Budd. It is quite a pre- tentious volume, containing over 630 pages, with full statistics. Altogether 296 banks have been exam- ined and the report shows a net increase of banking resources of almost $12,000,000, as follow: - Net gain In banking resources in the State from July 1, 1894, to June 17, 189! ..8$11,826,658 47 Classified ‘as fol San Francisco Sav- ings. of $3,093,069 62 ‘mercial 8,489,727 43 | San_Francisco tionals.. 1.068,876 09 Interior Savings 618,898 86 8.570,377 54 Interior Natlonals... 98,451 08 Total increase. ... §12, Less not decrease in private banks.... 41274215 11,826,658 47 (including National banks) Total assets... “fotal amount due depositors.. $27,988,199 50 3091179.575 41 200,114,820 86 “‘Considering the depression which has prevailed generally during the past year,” the commissioners observe in connection with this showing, ‘‘the statements and reports herein contained are matters of | congratulation, showing, 8s they do, the strength and souadness of the financial in- staitutions of the State, and that healthy and steady growth has been mad Referring to the banks ia liquidation the report says: On account of the inactive condition of the Teal estate market, banks in liguidation are not making the progress we would wish, and it is a delicate question for this commission to | determine whether it is for the best interest of | those concerned to force the sale of landson the present dull market,or whether we may not reasonably hope that by a little patience better results will be realized in the near future. The following reference is made to the new bank act, with a recommendation of further amendments, so as to bring about a complete separation of savings banks from other financial institutions: Since our last annual report the law govern- ing this commission has been amended, giv- ing the board ncreased power and greatly adding to its responsibilities. Asit has been less than two months since he new law was put in force, it is yet too eurly to speak of its workings, but we have eve reason to hope for good résults. We woul recommend that the law be agsin amended to Erevem the practice of gemuung savings anks to be condueted in the same room with commercial banks, and governed by the same ofticers. We believe the practice to be nicious and u‘“fh‘ with danger. On this subject the recently amended banking law of the State of New York reads: “No savings bank hereafter incorporated shall do business or be located in the same room or in any_room communicating with any bank or National banking institution.” In the same act it is made “unlawful for a majority of the board of trustees of any sav- ings bank to belong to the board of directors of any other bank or National banking institu- tion.” We respectiully recommend that our iaw be so amended as to conform to that of New York in this regard. We would further recommend that savings banks be prohibited from taking from any in- dividual deposits to exceed in the aggrégate , and that in commercial banks no officer, director or employe should be per- mitted to borrow from the bank with which he is connected a sum to exceed 10 per eent of its paid-up capital. This is the seventeenth annual report. The banks examined are divided into the following: o Incorporated active State banks, 225:for- eign banks, 5; private banks, 18; National banks, 31; banks in voluntary liquidation, 5: banks in involuutary liquidation, 9; retired banks, 3; total, 296.

SCHMIE- DELL UNITED AT GRACE CHURCH. BRILLIANT SOCIETY EVENT. SoME PROMINENT PeoPLE WHO ATTENDED THE CEREMONY. HEPBURN-WILLIAMS. Brilliant weddings are no rarity in San Francisco, but notable among all that have thus far graced society annals of the City i was that which occurred &t noon yes- terday when Miss Alice McCutchen and E. G. Schmiedell embarked together upon that voyage which is to end only with life. The bride, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E.J. McCutchen, is at once one of the fairest and most popular members of so- ciety. 2 The ceremony took place in Grace Church, on the corner of California and Stockton streets, Rev. Dr. Foute and Rev. Mr. Miel conducting the services. There have been many notable gatherings in Grace Church, but few if any ever more brilliant than that which filled the vast but beautifully decorated edifice yesterday. The decorations in Grace Church, which were arranged by Dr. Harry Tevis, were concentrated in the chancel and upon the altar, the whole front of which was almost hidden behind a wall of pink and white flow- efs, green vines and ferns that filled the whole interior with a sweet perfume. Flowers were seen everywhere, but the chief loyeliness of the beautiful scene was to be found in the bright faces and becom- ing costumes of the throngs which had come to see their friend and girlhood’s companion take the most momentous step of her life. From the doorway of the church the sight was almost bewildering in its beauty. No cards of admission had been issued, but the larger portion of the church had been reserved for the relatives and imme- diate friends of the bride and groom and their families, while the remainder of tha auditorium was given up to those less in- timately acquainted, and by whom the entire space was filled in a few moments after the doors had been opened. Somany were there, indeed, who were anxious to be present that the ushers had much diffi- culty in keeping the aisles clear. It was but a few minutes after the ap- pointea hour when the organist began the wedding march and the bridal procession entered the church. First came the ushers, ‘W. R. Heath, Augustus Taylor, Harry L. Simpkins, Wilham D. Page, Henry W. Poet, George T. Cowles, Louis Jones and Charles 8. Fay, the latter three from Santa Barbara. The bridesmaids, four in num- ber—Misses Sarah Collier, Grace Martin, Edith McBean and Daisy Van Ness—were attired in gowns of white mousseline de | soie and wore white hats with large | plumes. They wore white gloves and shoes and each carried a bouquet of La France roses, and they wore their souve- nir pins of pearls. The bride entered the church leaning on { the arm of her father, who escorted her to the chancel, where the groom met her and led her to the altar. The bride, whois a lovely blonde with pleasing expression, wore a beautiful gown of white satin pro- fusely trimmed with lace, with high | corsage, full court train and elbow sleeves. Her veil, which covered her gown, was of white tulle, and was caught in her hair with a diamond sunburst. She carried a bouquet of bride’s roses. At the altar the bride and groom weére met by Rev. Mr. Foute and Rev. Mr. Miel, who read the beautiful and impressive marriage service of the Episcopal church, pronounced the twain man and wife, uttered the benedic- | tion and were the first to offer their con- | gratulations and best wishes. The bride and groom led the procession out of the church, followed by the bridesmaids and others, the organ playing the Mendelssohn | wedding march, The wedding party and those invited to | the breakfast wereimmediately driven to the residence of Mr. and Mrs. McCutehen, { waiting. During the breakfast an orchestra under the leadership of Huber played ap- he bridal table was placed in the room upstairs and was beautifully finished in pink and white.

BarrLingToN BootrH WILL STRENGTHEN THE AUXILIARY LEAGUE. Mrs. Ballington Booth will begin her three weeks’ labor in the Salvation Army field of the State to-day.

Mrs. Booth’s purpose in making this visit to the coastis two-fold. *“I want to see the work and our friends here, to help one and cheer up the other,’’ she said, pleas- Mrs. Ballington Booth. antly. “Yes, itis gmctically a tour of in- spection, the third I have made. I was here with my husband seven years ago and made the tour alone three years later. An equally important object is that of building up the coast branch of the Auxil- iary League. The league is composed, not of soldiers and lassie, but of friendsof the the army who aid us because of their sym- pathy with the work. The league is 5000 strong in the United States, but hasa mem- Dership of only 200 on the Pacific Coast. 1 am anxious to strengthen it, and for that reason will give addresses in various to clubs.” She had heard encouraging reports from the army in Califorria and was sure it was making rapid progress. Of the work in general she said: **We are marching on. It is not with the army as it wasa few years ago. Public sentiment is g‘r‘u\vmg more and more favorable to us. We ap- preciate the great kindness of the press and the churches, but the love of the peo- ple of our own class, those among whom we work, is even more gratifying.”” Mrs. Booth will give a lecture on “Women Warriors,” at the Metropolitan Temple, this evening.
