TR R e H 1 Aot SR G i AR THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JANUARY 19, 1896. A BIG BUCKLEY RALLY. Officers and an Executive Com- | mittee to Be Created To- | Morrow Night. t { THE EX-BOSS TO DECIDE THINGS. | The Junta Waits, the Breach Is Not Wide and Paths to a Compromise Are Discussed. A The Buckleyites will have a large and | important time on Monday evening, when the old and the new general committees | will meet 1n Odd Fellows’ Hall to transfer | the reins of local party government. The old committee will wind up its af- | fairs after nearly four years of power, ap- | vrove the work of the primary committee | of twenty-five with the recent primary election and adjourn sine die. Acting and Vice-Chairman Joseph Rothchild of the | old committee will at once call the new | committee to order and permanent organ- ‘ ization will be proceeded with. Who the new officers are to be is inter- | esting or worrying a large portion of the new committee. The chairmanship is, of course, the t of most interest.

No definite decision about the time of mary has been announced, and | re is a possibility, if not a probability, that there will not be a Junta primary | merely for the election of & new general | committee and a second one a few weeks | later to choose delegates to the State Con- | vention. There is no great need of a new general committee, and the primary may be delayed and made to serve both pur- Joses. . The situation between the Junta and | the Buckley faction remains the same as | it became when the battle-field cooled oft | a few weeks ago. The factions are wide | apart and they are quietly le‘ting each other alone and waiting for something to turn up. Nobody is getting out and de- | nouncing Buckley just now, because there is no particular occasion for it at the moment. Each faction is quietly attend- n busiuess, saying, “Sh!sk!” rs, and with sneering curi- sity watching the other from across the alley. T Buckleyites ignore the Junta wholly in their daily doings, but consider | the revolutionists when taking counsel on | the future. All know, with Buckley, that they will get together in the end—that ‘‘'somehow, somewhere, meet we must.” “Democrats are like Kii- No matter how hard they | ; When the fignt is over there are more | this situation Buckley leaders say: are the party and have proved it, and | *'ll go right ahead and send to the State ARn legation that can’t help be 1. We will "have evidence that we constitute gular organization, that we have the political strength of the party with us, and that the Junta is founded on iraud and false pretensions, We will have | the children, excepting | original costumes were shown. able men to %resent our case and strong influences to back us.” The anti-Buckleyites say: ‘“We are the party as everybody knows and we will be recognized by the State Central Commit- tee. We will go right ahead ana send a delegation to the State convention with that prestige and it can’t help be seated. We will show that the other faction is completely deminated by Boss Buckley, who has been a traitor to his party, and that recognition of Buckley means party suicide.” . Butback of all th talk is the probability, if not the certainty, of a settlement before the State Convention meets. There are three possible solutions recognized. One would follow the maintenance of the rup- ture until the State Convention meets. In the event of two delegations going to the convention, it is thought most likely that political expediency would govern the ac- tion of the convention and that. recog- nizing the importance of the San Francisco Democratic vote this year, the convention would divide the representation hetween the delegations. The Buckley faction has shown itself so strong, and so much stronger than the other side, that its being ignored or turned out in the cold, is gener- ally conceded to be out of the question, Another possibility is that when the State Central Committee meets about the last of February, a way of bealing the breach will be fonnd, though the Buckley leaders, such as Joseph Rothchild, John McCarthy, A. T. Spotts and others, declare that the State Central Committee has noth- ing to do with it, and that they will not consult it. The third possibility is that before a crisis comes that large and strong eiement f the party which sides with neither fac- tion nor takes much interest in the rival- | ries of politicians and bosses which have caused the breach will assert itself and force an agreement in behalf of the party. In this class are W. D. and Warren E lish, Russell Willson, James G. Maguir W. W. Foote, J. D. Sullivan, J. J. Dwyer, Judge Garber and many others of strong party influence. ; The Buckley leaders are continuously anxious to effect a compromise through such strong influences which migbt be headed by Messrs. Popper, Braunhart, Sullivan and McNab, who control the Junta through the sustaining power of John Daggett, Ed Lanigan and the Fire Department. Compromise is the object of Buckley’s constant effort, and the proba- bulities of it grow stronger. Ll AWAY FROM HOME |Johnny Cunlifie and Augustus Bodel, Two Schoolboys, Disappear. Their Parents Worried Over Their Absence—They Were Last Seen at San Jose. Johnny Cunliffe and Augustus Bodel, aged 12 and 9 years respectively, have wandered from their own firesides, and their parents and friends are worrying over their prolonged absence. | The boys went away from their homes a | few days before Christmas, and have not been seen or heard of since. The ques- tions: Where they have gone? What they are doing? How they are living? are causing a guessing contest among their relatives. The Cunliffe boy lived with his grand- mother, Mrs. O'Brien, at 502 Post street. The Bodel youth is a son of the artist at 514 Post street. The latter attended the Denman School and the former the Plymouth. Cunliffe is bright, active and well advanced in the ways of the world for a boy of his years. He sold newspapers Johnny Cunliffe, One of the Boys Who Ran Away From Home. [From a photograph.] when not at school, and was well known among the newsboys of the street. When his parents died same yearsago he and an elder brother and sister were taken under the sheltering wing of the gran mother, a plain, kind, affectionate old woman, now in the declining years of life. She cared for them with tenderness. All Jack,” obeyed Ler command. He persisted in absenting himself from school, and she chastised him for his erring conduct. . This is the only reason shé can give for his running away from school. *“Jack is a bright boy,” said the old lady vesterday, ‘‘and if he only gets to some of the big places he will be able to make a living. He is quick at selling newspapers, toys or anything like that. Why did he run away? Oh, I don’t know. I told him he had to go to school. That he would not do. The teacher had to send the notes about him to me through the mail, as if Jjack caught a boy coming to the house with a note he would be at him. Yet he was not a bad boy. Surely you | bave heard something of him,” and ‘the old grandmother seemed to doubt the assurance of the reporter that he knew nothing of her boy. When he left home the Cunliffe boy wore a suit of brown corduroy, blue cap aud black stockings. He has dark eyes and hair. He is not tall for his age. The Bodel boy is several years younger than Cunliffe, and his parents declare that he has been led away. He is quiet and re- tiring in disposition. He has light hair and blue His father is an artist at boys were last seenat the railway depot, San Jose, a few days after Christ- | mas. FORESTER’S' MASQUERADE. The Annual ¥ancy Dress Ball of the | Courts and Circles at California Hall. The Forestic Friends gave their annual masquerade ball at California Hall on Bush street last night, and ultogether it was a delightful affair. The Forestic Friends is a social organization composed of representatives from the following courts and circles of the Foresters of America: Excelsior Circle, Aloha Circle, Live Oak Circle, Mizpah Circle, Court Jus- tice, Court American and Court Live Oak, There was in attendance last evening a large gathering, and many pretty and Dancing as begun a little after 9 o’clock and con- tinued until midnight, when the prizes | were awarded and the guests unmasked, after which a supper was served.

DEMANDS OF THE CHURCH Will Ask Dr. Brown Why He Persisted in Shielding Mrs. Stockton. INJURIOUS TO MRS. DAVIDSON. * tory to Dr. Brown’s Alleged i Defamer. The power of public opinion, or that por- tion of 1t which is the exponent of sentiments entertained by the First Con- gregational Church, is being felt very strongly by the judges Dr. C. O. Brown appointed recently to try his case. The legality of his appointment of those judges, according to Congregational polity, to say nothing of common law and equity, 1s called in question. The mem- bers are willing to waive that, however, | since they admit that they had not in- | formed themselves previously by consult- | ing their church manual concerning their | right to challenge such a course. Their excuse is that the possibility of such a proceeding on the part of their shepherd | bad not occurred to them. There is a conviction, amounting to a demand, that the committee of investiga- tion should nold open sessions. It is claimed that the result of star-chamber meetings will not be cordially indorsed, no matter what these results may be, for secrecy in such cases never begets con- fidence, ! But there are two counts in the indict- | ment they have returned against the rey- erend gentleman that they will force upon the attention of the judges. They want to be satisfied as to "the motives of Dr. Brown in permitting Mrs. Stockton to unite with the First Church when, by his own confession, he knew her to be a| blackmailer. They want an explanation of his un-| doubted desire to bring her into promi- nence in church work, when he was | cognizant of her moral unfitness for such acharge. All these efforts to give hera position of influence 1n the church, it is | said, were made after he knew her char- acter thoroughly and azainst the remon- strance of members of the church whose integrity and devotion he could not assail. “Dr. Brown must explain his persistent shielding of a woman he knew was une worthy,” they say, and they are careful to say it to the committee, adding that the failure to cover that important point in the case will lay that body opeb to the charge of a willful ignoring of the claims of justice. Another query the church proposes to propound to the minister through its agents, the judges, is, *“Why did you call upon Mrs. Davidson to offer devotions at | be a Lypocrite? Why'did you help her to wear a mask if you knew it to conceal moral hideousness?” There are members who recall distinctly | that Mrs. Davidson’s voice was heard in supplication at prayer meetings in the First Church after, according to the pas- | tor’s allegations, he was convinced that | she was a conscienceless pirate on the high | seas of society. ! It is not probable that Dr. Brown will occupy the pulpit of the First Congre, tional” Church to-day. Inquiry at his could not say anything as to what his father might 'do. Valentine Brown gave the following letter to the reporter, which is said to have been received by the sister of a prominent clergyman of this City: | BUCKSPORT, ME.,January 3, 1896, | We have been fnterested i the acconnisof the | s on of & townswoman of ours, Mrs. Mary avidson.

Dr. Brown’s son also gave out the fol- lowing: A prominent gentleman in Michigan sends the following clipping from a Portiand daily: '8 EXPERTENCE WITH PAS- 'S BLACKMAILER.

He has examined the picture of the San Fran- clsco woman and says that it tallies with that of the Buftalo shark. DANCED AND DINED. The Employes of Nathan, Dohrmann & Co. Enjoy a Pleasant Social and Banquet. On Thursday evening Beethoven Hall, in Hotel Savoy, was the scene of a re- markably pleasant gathering—a gathering rarely duplicated in this City. As an object-lesson, showing the good feeling that should prevail between the employer a.nd his employes, it was indeed sugges- tive. It was a social and banquet given osten- | sibly to celebrate the forty-fifth anniver- sary of Nathan, Dohrmann & Co., but in reality it was a reception to the employes of the firm given by the employers. The event commemorated the forty-fifth anni- versary of the house, the thirty-fifth anni- versary of Mr. Nathan's connection and the twenty-seventh anniversary of Mr. Dohrmann’s connection with the estab- lishment. The attendance was composed exu- sively of employes and employers, num- bering 130, and their famiiies. The hall was beautifully decorated for the occasion. | everythirg that could tempt the The first intimation of the treat in store for them was 2 semi-humorous notice sent to every attache of the firm commanding his presence at the hall on the date men- tioned, with special instructions to dress as convenient, leave care behind and that sickness would not be accepted as an ex- cuse for absence. The monotony of regu- lation daances was broken by songs and recitations by Melville Meyer, E. W. Ehmann, Ed Hemelke, E. Taylor and Miss I. Munson. At 10 o’clock the merrymakers repaired to the banauet-hall, where there was found it appetite. There another pleasing feature looE place. The veteran employes of the firm were presented with decorations by their fel- }uw employes. The veterans were Henry Lage (1863), A. Bachert (1866), J. H. Jahns (1875) and Major Specht (1877). Appro- riate emblems were also presented to J. i‘{eineberg and Miss H. Eggert, the ad- dresses being made by A. B. C. Dohrmann. F. W. Dohrmann also received a nice little resent—a dustpan and dustbroom. E. Beutsch presided at the table as toast- master and addresses and toasts were made and responded to by F. W. Dohr- mann, J. H.

Hoff—A Silver Card of Invitation. The City tribes of the Improved Order of Red Men held a public “raising up of chiefs'” last evening in Odd Fellows' Hall, at the corner of Seventh and Market streets. Tuis beautiful and imuvressive ceremony, corresponding to the instalia- tion of officers, has never before taken place outside of the council-room. It was the idea of Acting Grand Sachem P. L. Hoff, the district deputy of the order, who prepared the details of the interesting oc- casion. The raising-up chiefs, besides Acting | Grand Sachem Hoff, were: Senior Saga- more M. J. Fairchild, Junior Sagamore P. 8. Seymoure, Prophet George W. Collins, Sannap Fred Brandt, Mishinewa H. L. Stacey, Great Chief of Records R. V. Bon, The officiating chiefs were: Sachem U. A. Lewis, Senior Sagaumore Henry A. Chase, Junior Sagamore W. C. Johnson, Prophet J. E. Higgins and Guard of Wigwam J. Lear; During the ceremony Acting Grand Sachem Hoff was presented with a beauti- ful diamond badge. The jewel was suit- ably engraved with a scene of a redman and paleface clasping hands by a blazing campfire over which the sun is rising. Above is an eagle holding in its talons a bow and quiver of arrows. Under the inscription—“P. L. Hoff, P. 8.”—are crossed tomahawks. The lower part of the badge contains the words “Freedom, Friendship, Charity,” A badge was also presented to Red Man Coleman of Osczola Council.

CHARLES M. gether in Oakland’s The piece was superbly staged, and the dignified satire and refined local witti- cisms kept the appreciative audience roar- ing with laughter till well on toward mid- night. All the first-nighters were there, but never was a legitimate company re- ceived with the enthusiasm that was di played to-night. he weather helped to bring out the people, and everything con- tributed to make the Unity Club benefit a marked success. ‘The first act opened with the scene laid in a courtroom of the Alameda County courthouse. It was Department 5, and Hon. Btephen G. Nye, who is known about equally as an able jurist and a successful agriculturist, was Presiding Judge. Uncle George Bromley sat in charge of Bailiff Hunt, and seemed to be fully cog- nizant of the enormity of the crime with which he was charged. Clerk Robert Edgar called the case, “People of Califor- nia versus George T. Bromley.” There was no desire for acontinuance, and the beautifully modulated tones of Major Fred Whitney, the prosecuting attorney, answered, “Ready, your Honor."” “When I was in Japan, your Honor,” Major Whitney was saying, when the audience bursted intoalaughter that lasted several minutes. The major was in Japan | two years ago, and everybody he has met since then has been greeted with the ex- pression “When I was in Japan.” and the major’s absentmindedness provoked the mirth. The jury had been secured at a previous session of the court so the prosecution was able to proceed without delay. Rastus Washington Brown (Alex. Roshorough) and Jean Baptiste Jellusean (B. C. Cavel- lier) were the witnesses for the prosecution, and_they made out a pretty good case against Uncle George. ¢ During the testimony Major Whitney introduced the eoat in evidence and ex- Mayor Pardee, counsel for defense, offered no objection provided its keeper came with it. This was agreed toand the ani- mal came on the stage. To the surprise of most of the audience the goat was an un- usually good ome, and performed antics that no Watts Tract butter was ever known to_be guilty of. : During the giving of his testimony Alex Roshorough made the startling admission that he cculd sing. Attorney Pardee ceeded to impeach the witness, and dur- ing his cross-examination the witness was required to introduce a few specialties to corroborate his testimony. Miss Anne M. Knvunnu%h took the part of the prosecuting witness, Widow O0’Grady, and at the close of the first act things looked very gloomy for the prisoner. The second act was occupied by the de- fense. Wun_Lung (C. C. C. Vinzent) and Wash Sing (Emil Nusbaumer) testitied for Uncle George, but under cross-examination they feli down so clearly that they utterly destroyed their case. To make matters worse the prisoner make a statement on his own behalf, and said so many con- tradictory things that all the eloquence of his attorneys could not desiroy its effect on the jury. After being out for a few minutes the | jury found the prisoner guilty as charged, and in a humorous speech Judge Nye sen- tenced Uncle George to the State Legisla- ture for life. Pbil Walsh, the court re- vorter, wheeied his testimony books off the stage in a wheelbarrow, and the cur- tain fell after the bandcuifs had been placed on the prisoner. The most significant feature was the ex- treme dignity of those who took part in the trial. During the most excruciating jokes not a smile could be seen in court and even the antics of the human goat, which part was taken by C. slemberg of the Acme Club, although they convulsed theaudience, failed to disturb the equanim- ity of tne court. ————— It has been stated in many quarters that Mnme.
