The intricate problem of whether or not the convention should be held hereis near- ing its solution,and when the committee is ready to give us the result of its delibera- tions the people of this City need not be surprisea if we have won their approval and also the convention. Our claims have been recognized in a small way from the first, but to-day they present themselves to the Republican party with a force that would have been discredited a month ago. Men whose opin- ions are of value langhed at us when the fight began, but the slow accumulation of strength proved that we have, step by step, wiped out the obst \d stand to-day among the first claimants for the commit- tee’s recognition.

BY FOUR SPECIALS. A HNovel Suggestion for Making the Delegates California’s Guests. In conversation with a representative of TeE CaLL yesterday afternoon Franklin K. Lane suggested a novel means of in- ducing the Republican National Commit- tee to hold the convention in this City. He said: The two great objections urged by Eastern Republicans against holding the convention on this coast are the time that the journey takes and the great expense of the trip. Unless these disadvantages can be overcome I am satisfied We cannot get a convention for many years to for the sake of the West, t from Mr. Brico down the ob- on wes made that it cost too much to gome here end took t00 long. “I propose, therefore, that California offer such an inducement to the Republicans as no other State has ever offered. We should offer to make the delegates to the conven- tion our guests from the minute they leave their Eastern homes until they return to them again. Itise very simple thing for them to do and would require much less money than at first supposed. Let California charter four trains of Pullman cars and start them at the Atlantic seaboard. One might start at Boston, /N0 T at New York, another at Washington and the fourth at Atlanta. At these different points the delegates from the surrounding States would gather. On board each train would be a committee of representative Cali- fornians to'give them welcome. The dining- cars would be loaded with California products, fruits, wines, etc. Then these four trains would travel westward, coming by different routes and paralleling each other through the country, stopping at one point in each State to take on the delegates from thatState, and at last, and not later than four days from the start, arriving in San Francisco. The Boston train could gather up all the delegates from the Northern belt of States, that from New York the Central tier, and so on. Could there be a grander advertisement for the State than the carrying out of such a scheme? The delegates would be California’s guests. We need to make friends among the powerful politicians in both parties if this coast is ever to have recognition either in the way of appropriations or offices. The Interior Department at Washington, which has ten times more business this side the Mississippi River than the other side, has never had a chief from any State further West than Missouri. It is possible for & miserable little slough in Indiana to get an appropria- tion of hundreds of thousands for improve- ments, when our harbors have to get slong with an_ occasional thousand. We don’t count, To say that the Pacific Coast wants something meansabsolutely noth- ing to the Eastern politicians. They have no idea what our possibilities are. The Pacific Coast States are no factor whatever in National politics at present and they never will be until we can get in touch with the political men of the East. We can’t go to them, there- fore we ought to bring them to us, even ii we have to pay for the privilege of seeing them. At one time when in Washington I made a canvass among the members of Congress to dis- cover why they did not pass the Nicaragua canal bill, and I found that the only Western political power the Congressmen kLnew any- thing about was the railroads, and as several gentlemen said to me: “The railroads don’t want the bill to pass, and most of the men here don’t know anything about the Pacific Coast, except what the railroads are good enough to tell them.” The proposition is a verysimple one. Toob- tain recognition we must have the leading men of all parties know what our part of the country is and what it wants. The only way to give them that information is to get them h 8o, Isay, if they object that 1t takesa er week to come here we should give them & four- dey speciel train; and when. they say that the is the only to the test. Then, know that way to put them if they won't come, we'll it is their fault, not ours aud that all their pretense of desirs to come here was humbug. We can call their hand by making this offe And as for the ex- pense, I believe THE CALL alone could ralse the necessary fund. Mr. Lane, who is practicing law in this City, has spent much of his time in the Eastern States during the last ten vears. He has stumped several of the Eastern States for ths Democratic party, and knows the attitude of all parties toward the Pacific Coast as well perhaps as any one here HELP FBDII THE LADIES. Mrs. J. J. Owen Begms Soliciting for the National Convention Fund With Very Substantial Results. The first woman in California to go out among the people and solicit subscriptions is Mrs, J. J. Owen, widow of the late Judge Owen, founder of the San Jose Mercury. Last evening Mrs. Owen called at this L Mrs. J. J. Owen, the First Woman to Solicit for the Republican Conven- tion Fund. (Sketched by a *“ Call” artist.] office and announced that she had made her first collection. ‘I have secured from the Hotel Pleasanton,” said Mrs. Owen, “the sum of and it gives me pleasure to offer it to you with the rest of the gen- | erous ons that_the people of San Francisco have given. When Mr. Brennan tendered the amount he said that he con- | sidered it the duty of every hotel man to give something to the fund. The fact that he was off the principal street had no weight with him, as it was a matter that | concerned the whole City. Tk frs. Owen should mple to the ladies of California, who have the interests of the State just as deeply set in their breasts asthe men. It is a safe thing to say that with the assist- ance they could give, twice the required amount could be raised that will be neces- sary to get the convention. The lady says she is still on the hunt for more offers, and her course is a most commendable one, as it shows the patriotism of our Cali- fornia women. e el INDIVIDUAL OPINION. The Views of P. F. Dunn and James Alva Watt Are in Keeping With Opinions of Other Citizens. “Without speaking of the political aspect of the case,’ said Attorney P.F.Dunun, “San Francisco should by all means have the next Republican National Convention, as it will focus the attention of the world upon our State, and we are sure to have it, as they have all awakened to the fact that our time to act has come. “California is a Republican State, ana at times of election has never failed to roll up large majorities for that party, although it | has never received any assistance from the party leacers. “The snap and enthusiasm which always accompanies a California campaien has materialiy increased the vigorand effec- tiveness of the Republican party through- out the United States, particularly notice- able in the Blaine campaigns.”’ “If the National Committee can be in- duced to hold the convention in this City,” continued Mr. Dunne, campaign with a rush and hurrah such as our Eastern friends have never seen be- fore, and that campaign will at least be sustained by California and the Pacific Coast to the end. “Another point in our favor is that California has no axes to grind and is not seeking the convention in the interest of any candidate, but in the interest of the people. The choice of the convention will be our choice.” “We want and must have the next Re- publican National Convention, because we are entitled to it,” said Attorney James A. ‘Watt, chairman of the Republican Muni- cipal convention of 1894, “and what is more, if it depends upon the efforts of the people of this City we will get it; and if the National Convention is held in this City it will not only emphasize the fact that California is a wonderful country, but will give San Francisco a definite standing among the great cities of the world.” g o Executive Council Meeting.

A Sudden Change of Heart Has Come Over the Bean-Eaters and They Are With Us. BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 26.—During the past few days there has been a radical change among Eastern Republicans in re- gard to favoring an Eastern city as the place for the Republican National Conven- tion, and although early in the week there was hardly a member of prominence of the party who could entertain thoughts of the convention going to the West the number of those disposed favorably that way are now quite plethoric. The only seeming reason to account for this change isthe wet blanket which has been thrown on Boston’s candidacy for the honor. At the meeting held in New York on Thursday, while it was stated that nothing official was done by the Republican leaders, it was mentioned that the Boston con- tingent wers given to understand in more than emphatic terms that she could not expect to receive any support if entered in the field. In New England the claims of San Francisco to the honor of holding the 1rip costs too much we should offer to make | convention have been fully recognized, them our guests from start to finish. This| and in fact the boom received quite a little “we will start a | impetus until the scheme of holding the conventionin this city was uncorked at the annual banquet of the Republican club. Now that the leaders have so mistakably shown their hands so far as Boston is con- cerned, the party has, as it were, returned to their first love, and San Francisco will, undoubtedly, receive the solid support of the Eastern States. The *‘Big guns’’ are not doing much taking at present, but they all feel sore over the manner in which they have been handled. TuE CALL cor- respondent secured interviews with several of the party leaders to-day, and they all seemed favorably disposed toward the Golden Gate. The most prominent opponent of San Francisco has been Governor Greenhalge of Massachusetts, but when seen to-night he said: Isee that we are out of the race, and while I must confess that I am chagrined at our defeat Ishould not do anything that I did not think was for the interest of the party. In regard to having the convention held at San Francisco, I can only state that my views have changed considerably of late, as on several occasions I have had the advantages of the scheme un- folded to me in a different light. Of course I do not feel like making any statements until T have more thoroughly tested the feeling of th party in general, but I have come to cone on that San ¥ cisco offers many ad- vantages which it would be policy to take advantage of. The claims which have been put forward, comparing the number of Repub- lieans east of the Mississippi to those west of it, itis by no means a fair one. It is not a ion whether n and help to strengthen us in a district where we might be strengthened, and I think this is the true light in which such things should be considered, and we cannot with justice overlook the claims of the W Governor Cleaves of Maine has always been in favor of having the convention held in San Francisco, and said: T have done all Icould in the pastto have the convention go there, and I shall continue my efforts in the future. Ithink that itisfor the best interests of the party, and when any- thing looks that way to me it will always en- list my sympathies. Ithink that Eastern Re- publicans will all take that view, not through any feeling of revenge, but from the fact that they cannot but recognize the benefits of the convention going to San Francisco. Lieutenant-Governor Wolcott of Massa- chusetts has also added his name to the list of converts, and although unwilling to express himself openly at the present | time, it is understood that he will throw ight in favor of San Francisco. 1ong the others who now favor that as the place for holding the conven- tion are Representative Atwood, Repre- sentative Barrett, Mayor Curtis of Boston, and Governor Busiel of New Hampshire, | who virtually form the backbone of Re- publicanism in the East. A well-known politician to-day made the statement that Joe Manley had had a | finger in the pie of changing the decision | of ern Republicans as he thinks that it | will benefit Thomas B. Reed’s chances |if the convention 1s held in the West. It is known that Reed has always been predisposed toward the West and in this sudden skift those with an eye on the fu- shows the traces of the aine statesmen. R— PITTSBURG STILL HOPEFUL. The Smoky City Holds Out Against Odds and Hopes to Defeat San Francisco. PITTSBURG, A., Oct. 2 Pittsburg to-day decided to increase the guarantee fund for the National Convention to | $75,000. Subserip iave almost reached 1965000, and an additional $10,000 for alterations in the bu 2 to accommo- date delegates.

Thurston of given a pledge to work for Much enthusiasm is mani- Pitisburg. fested here, and there is a general belief { that the city will pull off the convention. PITTSBUR(G, Pa., Oct. 26.—The execu- tive board of the citizens' committee to secure the next Republican convention for the city of Pittsburg met in the Mayor's | office this afternoon to hear reports of com- mittees, ete. Chairman C. L. Magee pre- sided. The principal matters discussed were finances and accommodations. It was decided to increase the guarantee fund to ,000. Chairman McKean of the finance committee remarked: “No mis- take should be made in now apprising the National Committee of the fact that the cash is in hand. If they desire we can raise twice that amount.” Chairman Robert Pitcairn of the trans- portation committee stated that a map showing the unexcelled facilities of Pitts- burg was being prepared for distribution. This map is conclusive evidence sub- stantiating the claim that Pittsburg can handle crowds on rail better than any city in the country, and can brihg visitors and delegates to the convention in less time and at proportionately less expense than any city in the United States. The detailed report of Chairman With- row of the committee on accommodations showed the capacity and regular price of every hotel in Pittsburg and Allegheny, and carried with it a guarantee that prices would not be advanced during the conven- tion. Mr. Withrow’s report also guaran- tees that 30,000 visitors can be entertained in excellent style. Chairman Smith of the press committee reported that accommo- dation for newspaper men and telegraph facilities were insured to be equal to any American city. Chairman Magee expressed himself as particularly well pleased with the pros- pects, and stated that he did not see how the National Committee could resist Pitts- bure’s invitation. Informally the body discussed several matters which will only be revealed to the National Committee at Washington, and are intended as sur- prises. Inconnection with the convention, plans are well in hand for holding a re- union of fhe first National convention, which met in Pittsburg in 1856. priata e WORKING FOR SAN FRANCISCO.

Claus Spreckels and family are return- ing from a six months’ tour of Europe, and are in the best of heaith. He has been watching closely the industrial con- ditions in his travels, and says that the signs of recurning prosperity are to be seen on every hand.

While in New York Mr. Shortridge and Mr. Spreckels held long conferences with Platt, Quay, Clarkson and other prom- inent Republicans regnrdmg the National Convention being held in San Francisco. They made a strong and gallant fight for the City by the Golden Gate, and if the National Convention is held in San Fran- cisco it will be due to their combined effort and nothing else. Mr. Shortndge aid that Mr. Quay was with Pittsburg in tagainst Chicago and San Francisco, while Platt was for Chicago unqualifiedly, while Mr. Clarkson was pulling hard for San Franeisco, with twenty-two delegates at his back out of fifty-six, and the coast was liable to come out a winner. = i JOSEFH SIMON'S CHOICE. Committeeman Oregon’s Favors San Francisco Against Chicago. PORTLAND, Ow., Oct. 2.—Joseph Si- mon, member of the Republican National Committee for Oregon, when asked as to his preference of cities for the National Convention next year, replied that his first choice was San Francisco, with Chicago as second choice. & “Ihave frequently stated that I will favor San Francisco for the convention,” said Mr. Simon, “and T am more favorable to the proposition now than before. The convention ought to come West, and I am informed that San Francisco’s efforts to secure the convention are liable to meet with success. “If we can't bring the convention to the coast I am in favor of Chicago. “Mr. Simon hopes that he will be able to get away from business long enough in De- cember so he can attend the meeting of the National Committee at Washington City, when he will exercise his influence for San Francisco. Members of the Oregon Press Associa- tion left on the overland last night for San Francisco as fraternal delegates to the Cal- ifornia Press Association, which convenes in that city to- day. These gentlemen, while holding different political faith, favor holtln\'v the National Republican Convention in San Francisco. APPROVAL. The Record Lays 1own Some Cold Facts to Partisans. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Oct. 26.—The Evening Record said editorially last night: The San Francisco CALL is fighting & splendid fight to get the next Republican National Con- vention at 8an Francisco. THE CALL has con- tributed $10,000 towerd such convention. This is an issue that rises far above the parti- san plane, so far as California is concerned, and every paper in the State, not only Repub- an, but Democratic, Prohibitionist, Popu- Mugwump, ete., ought to join in ThE fight with full mightand main. The convention ought to be held in San Francisco. The great parties have neyer given Califor- els, accompanied by his wife, Miss Emma Spreckels, John D. Spreckels and Charles M.Shortridge, arrived in Chicago thisafter- noon on the private car Corsair, en route When the Michigan Central limited rolled into the Central depot a number of General Passenger nia enough recognition. California can com- pel more than she has had. Put the screws on and get up steam, and if any Demo- ecratic paper fafls to raise its voice be- cause of partisan jealousy it ought to go off and make faces at the coyotes and other things that howl and howl and howl. The Examiner, Democratic, has set the proper pace for the other Democratic dailles. STATE PRESS OPINIONS. Plenty of Aid and Encouragement From the Interior Papers of California Con- tinue to Pour In. If the subscription of $100,000 in coin or more is all that is required tc induce the Re- publican National Committee to determine upon naming Sen Francisco as the convention city, the contest for that honor may be said to be over before it has fairly been begun. Three newspapers alone in San Francisco have sub- scribed a total of $25,000—THE CaLL $10,000, the Examiner $7500 and the Chronicle $7500 —and other subscriptions bring the amount up to $50,000. The additional £50,000 has been promised by individuals, clubs and associa- tions whose word is as good as their bond, sand there is no question that within another week the entire $100,000 will have been subscribed. Fortunately a few earnest Republicans, who are equally loyal and enthusiastic Califor- nians, are in & position to appeal directly to the individual members of the National Com- mittee, Their arguments so far have received careful consideration. Many membersof the committee have cady pledged themselves to support the claims of San Francisco. Since February last, at which time THE CALL began the egitation in behalf of San Franciseo, the sentiment among them in favor of San Fran- cisco has been steadily growing. It iz an- nounced that seventeen members of the com- mittee are now with San Francisco, and twenty-five votes are necossary to s choice. But Platt, who is a power in New York, favors Chicago, and Senator Quay, who leads the party in Pennsylvania, is working for Pitts- burg. If they combine forces and agree upon either of those cities there will be small chance for San Francisco. But there is one advantage possessed by San Francisco that no other city in the Union can elaim. Many members of the committee and hundreds of politicians in the East would like nothing better than to visit California, of which they have heard so much. They would be glad to have the convention held in San Francisco, as that would give them the coveted opportunity to see what California islike. Low rallroad rates in connection with the conven- tion would be a great inducement. So that, considering all the factors in the problem, the conclusion must be that San Franeisco has an even chance with Chicago and Pittsburg to win the prize.—San Jose Mercury. The people of San Francisco are thoroughly in earnest in the effort to secure the National Republican Convention next year. THE CaLL and Chronicle, having agreed to shake hands scross the abyam of their rivalries, have to- gether contributed $17,500 to the fund which will b needed to deiray expenses, and the Ex- aminer, & Democratic newspaper, opens the ball in the camp of the enemy with its own subseription of $7500. If the example set by the leading newspa- pers of both political faiths is followed by the wealthy Republicans and Democrats of the City San Francisco may secure the convention; and, should this fortunately occur, it would eccomplish more than any other influence at the present time to strengthen the bond ot brotherhood and pairiotism between the people of the Atlantic and those of the Pacific coasts. It has been estimated that only $100,000 will be required to obtain the convention for California, but this figure is probably much too small, in view of the fact that Pittsburg has already agreed to raise $150,000, and that Chicago, Minneapolis and other cities will wage aggre! e competition for the honor and the benefits to be derived. If the convention does meet in San Fran- cisco many of the delegates and their friends will, without doubt, take the opportunity to visit Stockton and other interior ecities, and this would prove a greater advantage to this community than many years of ordinary travel could confer.—Stockton Record. It is certain that no Neational Convention e s e e e ey will come to San Francisco without the ask- ing. Thatmustbe accentuated with a great deal of money. When Chicago wants any- thing it not only asks for it, but goes right to work as if there could not be any other than suc- cessful result. San Francisco is meving for the National Republican Convention. It may not getit, but it is worth making the effort. Upto this time there does not appear te be any strong opposition to the plan. It will require a great deal of money and a great deal of hard work to meet the competition that will de- velop later on. Why should not a National convention come to the Pacific Coast? There is a great empiro growing up here, It will do strong men good to look out on the Pacific and 1o look up at the mountains. It is no longer an isolated coun- try, but is within speaking distance of all the great commercial and political centers of the world. There would be such a royal hospitality here as was never extended to any convention held east of the Rocky Mountains.—Oakland Tribune. May Be Built Here. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 26.—Sec- retary Herbert, having decided not to grant the contract for the one gunboat to a Detroit firm on account of the English treaty forbidding the construction of war boats on the great lakes, the Union Iron Works will probably get this contract, rsncakmg two gunboats to e built by Mr. ott. LONG AND SHORT HAULS, PROCEEDINFS AGAINST UNJUST TARIFFS IN THE CoLO- RADO TRAFFIC. GREATER RATEs CHARGED BE- TWEEN CHICAGO AND COLORADO PoinTs THAN TERMINALS. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 26.—The proceedings initiated by the Interstate Commerce Commission against railroads in Colorado traffic involve a greater num- ber of corporations than were ever before known in one action before that body. Colonel Morrison, chairman of the com- ion, to-day said to a reporter for The Unpited Press that the commission had acted upon numerous complaints, espe- cially from the State of Iowa. “These complaints plainly show,” said Colonel Morrison, “that & greater rate was being charged to points between Chicago and Colorado than to those terminals, and we notified the eompanies, in pur- suance to the authority given usin the law, to answer in fourteen days to the charge that the tariffs were a violation of the fourth section of the law. The short time thus given was named by the com- mission, because the roads had acted hastily and without the usual notice to the public in proclaiming the tariffs.” “The Santa Fe road was the first road to make the open tariff,” said Colonel Mor- rison,”” *‘and then the people of Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Northern Missouri complained that it was an outrageous im- position to compel them to pay higher rates on freights than farther western points and that it was a violation of the law.” Colonel Morrison said that the commis- sion could do no more than issue an order requiring the roads to desist from using the tariff. If they refused, then the courts must take the matter in hand. ‘That makes a lawsuit,”” he continued, ‘‘with its consequent delay. The result usually is long before the courts get around to a trial some agreement has been reached by the roads which does away with the o{fense upon which the prosecu- tion is based.’ NEW TO-DAY SNEEZING.

GIVEN A BIG WELCOME. THEY WILL BE ATTACHED TO THE REGULAR FORCES AND SENT TO BATTLE. EIGHT HUNDRED VOLUNTEERS. SpaiN Has No Craim UPON THE MEN, BUT THEY ARE VERY PaTRIOTIC. SANTIAGO De CUBA, Oct. 16.—On the 9th inst. the steamer San Francisco of the Spanish Trans-Atlantic Company arrived here from Buenos Ayres, Argentina, and embarked 860 Spaniards and descendants of Spaniards who had offered their ser- vicesto fight for Spain in Cuba. They were accorded a most enthusiastic wel- come. It wasa gala day in this, the old- est city in the Spanish West Indies. The leading club of the city, “El Circulo Es- panol,” furnished refreshments for officers and men. After full justice had been done to the club’s hospitality, the men fell in and marched to their quarters in the Reina Mercedes and San Francisco bar- racks. Later they will be detailed in companies and attached to the regular forces. Their arrival attracted much attention. One paper says: Led by the home nation they entered the Spanish army in Cuba. Spain had no claim on them, as they lived without her jurisdiction. Many of them were infants when taken to Argentine Republic. They were fired with patriotism. Many left business interests and property to enter the ranks of the Spanish army, to offer their blood and lives in defense of Spain’s national integrity. In addition to these volunteers the steamer San Francisco brought an officer and a small detachment of the Leon Regi- ment, which will be followed by the whole regiment from Porto Rico. NEW TO-DAY.
