4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, MARCH 10, 18Y6. T0 BE LAUNCHED AT LOS ANGELES, California Silverites Will Start a National Movement. DESERT OLD PARTIES. Morgan of Alabama and Allen of Nebraska to Head a Ticket. BIMETALLISTS MEET TO-DAY. Will Call Upon the Two Leaders to Allow Their Names to Be Used. 10S ANGELES, Carn., March 9.—The executive committee of the State Central Committee of the American Bimetallic party will hold a meeting at the office of United States Senator Cornelius Cole in this city, beginning at noon to-morrow. The meeting will be & most important one to the extreme silver men, for it is ex- pected to adopt resolutions locking mwufd placing the leadership of the silver men in the hands of Senator Morgan of Alabama and Senator Allen of D With these gentlemen as standard-beer- ers in the coming National campaign, the one a candidate for the presidency and the ther for the Vice-Presidency,it is the hope the bimetallic party to unite the South he West into an electoral college ma- jority of from 25 to 30 and advance the cause of silver independent of either the Rey can or Democratic parties. I'he leaders of the movement in this State propose to inaugurate a National movement at this time by the resolutions that are being prepared to-day and which will be submitted at the meeting for adop- tion. In the resclutions they expect to call upon the Senators to allow themselves | head the movement and cat loose from | tions, to the ex: ry for them to carry the purposes of the bimetallic party. Chairman Enoch Pevper to-day stated would be hopeless to do anything st, which was essentially com- d to gold, but he believed with the 1th and West so ed the silver men 1d have a decided majority might be small, but effective nevertheless. Sen- ater Morgan, he said, with the devotion of his people to him in the South, would be more than a match for Carlisl That ne had been a Confederate general he did not believe would cut any figure now, especiaily as Congress had recently e seen fit to remove all political disabilities, | and with Allen and his 3,000,000 Populists and the silver men of the West under one common banner, he was very sanguine. of a creditable showing for the bimetalhc party. o LOWRY ON TRIAL. Arraigned to Answer to a Charge of Embezzlement. LOS ANGELES, Car., March 9.—The case of Frank L was called for trial this morning before Judge Smith. Lowry was the chief deputy clerk of the county under Clerk Ward from January, 1893, to Janusry, 1895, and in his position he had charge of the funds which came into the hands of the Clerk. Itis claimed that be- tween the 19th of October and the 22d of December, 1894, he embezzlea $1354 95. It 1s for this that he is now on trial. The alleged embezzlement occurred through his having paid out various sums of money, aggregating the amount of the defauit, for county minor expenses. Heis said to have received warrants from the Supervisors to replace this money, but not to have turned the warrants inio the funds of the office. The loss to the county has been made good by Mr. Ward, who is now Clerk of the Supreme Court, but this does not re- lieve Lowry from responsibility to the law for the alleged offense. - Mr. Ward has been subpenaed from Sac- ramento and is attending the trial. A jury was secured late this afternoon. =gy JONATHAN CLUB OPENING. Brilliant Assemblage Entertained in the New Quarters. LOS ANGELES, CaL., March 9.—The rooms of the reorganized Jonathan Club were thronged by a gay and brilliant crowd this evening, the occasion being the formal opening of the club’s new quarters at 132 South Spring street. The new home occupies the entire Corfu building, the three floors being devoted to the use of the members. The parlors and the wine and card rooms are on the first floor, while on the others are the dining- room, kitchen, pantries and sleeping- rooms. The finishing is artisticand in several styles in the different apartments. Those who received to-night were C. W. Howry, Freeman J. Tood, George P. T lor, C. H. White, Hancoek Banning. F. K. Rule, G. A. Alexander, J. B. Bushnell, B. W. Lee, A. Day, George Gaskill, Ed. Bur- goyne and E. W. Tuffts. Several orchestras were in attendance and played during the affair. Refresh- ments were served in the banquet hall, each guest being presented with a souvenir pin on which were engraved the initials of the club. A delightiul musical programme was rendered. The affair was attended by many leading society people. The Jonathan Club organized asa Re- publican club by Colonel Chamberlain auring the last campaign and started out in a modest way in_a building adjoining its present palatial quarters. The clcb cut quite a figure during the campaign, but when that was over the interest died out and the membership fell off. In the meantime a change had taken place 1n the management, and the gen- tlemen at the head of the organization determirved to eliminate the political ele- ment and convert it into a social club, pure and simple. This being decides upon, it was determined to make 1t the leading organization of its kind in South- ern California. The lease on the Corfu building was se- cured, and while the undertaking was a heavy one, sufficient capital was guaran- teed to go ahead with the work the result of which was seen this evening. The officers of the club, under whose direction the organization nas reached its present positions, are as follows: Presi- dent, George L, Alexander; first vice-presi- dent, J. B. Bushnelil; second vice-presi- dent, J. K. Rule; treasurer, Charles H. White; secretary, E. M. Burgoyne. These gentlemen, with the following, make up the board of directors: Hancock Banning, Bradner W. Lee, George P, Tay- lor, ¥d B. Tuffts, Ben F. Day and George C. Gaskill, E. B. Prussia, formerly of the Redondo Hotel, is the assistant secretary and manager. The club has at present over 300 mem- bers and in three months the list is ex- pected to reach at least 500. —_———— KICKED A WOMAN. “ Bug " Holliday Arrested for Brutally Attacking a Companion. LOS ANGELES, CAv., March 10.—“Bug” Holliday’s recent experience with his sis- ter-in-law has apparently soured the ex- baseballist on worgen, for to-night he was arrested for kicking a woman who was trying to persnade him to £o to his home. Shortly after midnight the people at the corner of Sixth and Spring streets were aroused by a furious commotion in a hack. The door was seen to open and & woman fell out«on the street. After hercame a drunken man who jumped on to her pros- trate form and began beating and kicking ber about the head. ; The woman’s screams attracted a police ofticer, and she was soon taken from the | clutches of her assailant. The two were sent to the police station, whers the man proved to be none other than “Bug” Hol- liday, who was1n a ferocious state from drink. The woman’s wounds were dressed in the Receiving Hospital, but she refused to give her name. She claimed to be a respectable woman and was acquainted with the Hollidays. “Bug” had come to her house, she said, and she had merely got into the back to try and tage him home. She would make no complaint against him. He was charzed with drunkenness anda locked up until he will have sobered up. Governor Budd’s Movements. LOS ANGELES, Car., March 9.—The gubernatorial party arrived in the ity from Pasadena at 2 o’clock this afternoon. | After leaving Mount Lowe the Throop | Polytechnic School was inspected, and | then the drive to this city was made m a tally-ho coach. This afternoon the Gov- ernor inspected the Normal School, and at 5 o'clock went to Whittier, wherea meeting cf the board will be held. CASON N METHODS Experts Discharged to Prevent the Detection of Bogus Melts. [ | | | | | | | George McLaughlin Gives Telling Tes- timony at the Trial of E John T. Jones. | CARSON, Ngv.,, March 9.—The main | feature of to-day’s testimony 1n the trial | of John T. Jones, the alleged bulliou-thief, was that given by George McLaughlin, who for many years was the pressman and hief mechanical expert of the mint. He | s the inventor of several devices now in | | use in the United States mints, and is a | man of recognized ability throughout the mint service. He testified positively that the bogus melt was cast in molds in use in the deposit melting-room; that the person who stamped the bars had but little expe- | rience, as the stamping was very irregular | and the dies had not been held straight in | the hand. Under the glass he detected | irregularities in the dies, which were re- | produced in the metal. He demonstrated | that some of the ficures on the bars had been stamped when the bar was hot and oft and others when the bar was cold. The settlement numbers had a polished | appearance, showing cold stamping. He demonstrated that the melt was made some time ago by reason of its tarnished | surface, and the indentution of the figures stamped in the deposit melting-room had dirt aeposited in the bottom. McLaughlin. declared that the bogus | melt claimed by the Government to have { been made on June 21, 1893, was consider- | | ably older than melt 211, made in 1895. | It was shown chat, in anticipation of the | manufacture of the bogus melt, the plot- | ters against the Government bad suspend- | ed the experts in the melting-room and supplanted them with raw hands in order | that the character of the bogus melt would | pass unnoticed. | © Frank Oliver, one of the inexperienced | velpers, swore that on June 21, 1893, they | worked until 6 o’clock at night on what | he supposed was slum melts and Potosi bullion. _Ellis, the assayer, testified that he supposed from the returns from the melt- ing-room thata gold bar was being re- melted, but thought it strange, as there was no occasion for a remelt of the bar. The Government claims that the bar was not remelted, but a pretense made of do- ing so in order to cover up the real bu ness of the day, which was the doctoring of the spurious melt in order to bave it pass in the approaching July settlement. Larr s STEAME Transpertation Line to Great Britain Soon to Be Opened. TACOMA, Wasn., March 9.—Miki Saito, Japanese Consul at this port, received in- formation by the steamship Victoria from Yokohama that a new Japanese steamship | company, fathered by the imperial Gov- ernment, will have a Japan-Great Britain line in operation before the end of the resent month. The first steamer, the Tosa Maru, will leave Yokohbama about the 15th on its initial voyage to London, cailing at Hongkong, Bombay, Singapore, Port Said and Mediterranean ports. ’lphere will be six vessels in the line, the inten- tion being to have one in port at each terminus and four on the way constantly. The Tosa Maru is a vessel of about 4000 tons, and was used as a transport during the Chinese-Japanese war. It has been entirely remodeled. The Government will now commence the construction of several new steamships. When completed they will go on the Great Britain line, and the present ships will be put on the Japanese-American line, which has been 8o long a pet prospect of the Japanese Government and about which so much has been printed. The Pacific Coast ter- minus of the line has not yet been se- lected. T0 JAPAN. DI DROWNED AT ELK RIVER. Boatman Alewander Thorpe Loses His Life in the Water. EUREKA, CAn., March 9.—Alexander Thorpe, a boatman, while attempting to pulla scow off asand bar with a small boat at Elk River yesterday, was thrown into the river by a quick turn off the skiff and drowned. Thorpe at the time of the accident was standing 1n a coil of rope, which so entangled his legs that he was i unable to swim. The current was guite strong and rapidly carried him down stream, submerging his head when the rope became taut. A number of men saw his striggles, but they were unable ‘to render any assistance. Thorpe was a good swimmer and couid easily have reached the shore had he not been so encumbered. The drowned man is survived by a widow and seven children, the youngest only four days old, in destitute circum- stances. The Ricks Water Company has headed a subscription list for them with $80. o o ns New Church for Belvedere. BELVEDERE, CaL., March 9%.—A new Presbyterian church will sbortly be built at thisplace.

BUDD AND THE FRESNO CLANS, Widening of the Breach in the Democratic Ranks. SCORED BY GOUCHER. Daggett, Wise and the Executive Accused of Treachery to Friends. THEIR PLEDGES IGNORED. The Editor Says a Day of Retribution for the Officeholders Is Coming. FRESNO, CarL., March 9.—Senator Goucher goes gunning for large game in the tield of California Democracy in to- day’'s Watchman. His leading editorial arraigns three prominent Democrat’s in It is as follows: “John Daggett of the United States Mint; John H. Wise, Collector of the Port at San Francisco, and J. H. Budd, Gov- ernor of California, have seemed to take deep delight in denying a fair proportion of the patronage to the Democrats of Fresno County. They will not and they cannot give any just reason for this, but of course they may promptly deny that ne- glect of Fresno was a premeditated affront. “From the ranks of the Democracy here as capable men can be taken as fill any stations urfder the officers mentioned. In fact the Fresno Democracy has many members equal in mental and other essen- tial equipments to Daggett, Wise and Budd. The Democracy of Fresno has been a faithful body of men. It has never faltered in its endeavors even in the party’s darkest and stormiest hours. The these officers and their friends the local | Democracy has plunged an unstinting hand into funds that should have gone to wives and children. It has worn off shoe- soles that cost final dollars parading around the streets cheering for Democratic leaders, who tied gratitude and memory together and threw them both away as soon as the votes were counted. We know of no man in Fresno County who has aspired to any appointment who seeks ap- pointment now. But the fact remains that the Democracy bas been isolated, deserted and left to such fate as it could make. We will make the fate a good one. When the smooth lads call this way again, button- holing for votes, we are all likely to have nervous prostration, too, brought on by such ceaseless importunings for office. “The machinery all runs with delicious perfection when we are doing all the favors, but when we ask one it throws the debtor into spasms, a banquet or a duck-hunt. With all the Federal and most of the State patronage in Democratic hands the Fresno Democracy has one lonely, sad-eyed rep- resentative holding down a slippery ap- pointment. “It may teach a timely lesson to com- pare this with the fact that the Repub- {icans of Fresno have two men holding good places in the State Capitol building alone, viz.: W. T. Senson, Deputy Secre- tary of State, and G. W. Fuller, watchman of the State Treasury. It hasalmostcome to the point where a Fresno man must be a Republican or a ‘kicker’ to get any ap- pointment. “But go on, gentlemen; give the public places to the barroom rounders and dude tailor dummies of San Francisco. Fresno will prosper and it asks no favors.” - Breach of Contract Charged. FRESNO, Cav., March 9.—Suit was filed in the.Superior Court here to-day by D. C. Sample, a wealthy landowner of Dry Creek, against the Fresno Flume ana Irri- gation Company for $14,600, alleged dam- ages for not complyving with a contract made some yeers ago between the parties to this suit, in which the flume company stipulated to supply water to the plaintiff for irrigation purposes. The contract dates back to 1832, The defendants were formerly the Pine Ridge Flume Company. H. D. Colson, Henry Musick and C. B. Shaver are some of the officers and di- rectors of the present company. ORDERED T0 BERING SEA The Entire Fleet of Revenue Cutters to Hasten to the North. Unusual Vigilance to Be Exercised in Guarding Seals in the Pre« scribed Zone. PORT TOWNSEND, Wasn., March 9.— It was learned here to-day that the Treas- ury Department has issued orders to fit out and prepare with all dispatch the rev- enue cutters now on this coast. The cap- tain of the Corwin has received instruc- tions to at once take aboard stoves for a six months’ cruise to Alaska aud the Be- ring Sea. The revenue cutter Bear is to arrive here on April 11. All the cutters available for service on the coast are \said to have received similar orders. The receipt of such orders at so early & date is considered quite unusual by those who are familiar with the revenue cutter services. It is believed that itis the in- tention of the Treasury Department to exercise much more vigilauce this season than last in preventing the wholesale slaughter of seals within the forbidden zone in Bering Sea. Last year the cutter Grant was the last to leave here for Bering Sea, sailing on May 28; but according to present plans the whole fleet of cutters will sail ‘north from here not later than April 15. The revenue cutter Wolcott is daily expected here from Alaska. It left Sitka on March 3. LR PROPHECY OF AN ALASKA MAN.| Predicts That Great Suffering Will Follow the Rush {o the Northern Gold Fields, PORTLAND, Or., March 9.—J. C. Farns- worth, who spent nine years in Alaska and is just down from that territory, say: ““There will be woeful suffering among some of the people who, attracted by the cheap steamship rates, are joining In this Alaskan stampede. To a man with a ®ood outfit, costing not less than $400, and with $400 additional in hard coin in is pockets, I say, ‘Go to Alaska;’ but a man with barely enough money to land him at Junea, Dyea or Cooks Inlet, or With even $100 to spare after he has struck either of the first two places, wiil regret the trip, providing he stays in the country untii his money js spent and has no ac- quaintance from whom to borrow money with which to pay his return passage. *‘There will be hundreds upon hundreds of idle men flocking to Alaska from every quarter of the Union, and the further re- moved they are from authentic sources of information the more inflamed will be their imaginations as 1o the prospects ahead. “'The accounts daily being_sent forth of a man who made $48,000 1n _three years on Cooks Inlet, throwing handfuls of money to the boys on the wharf at Tacoma; of a party of fifty, each member of which cleaned up $3000 last year, starting back with their sleds and dogs; of the demand for labor at $6 or §8 per day, coupled with the cheap rates of transportation, will lead hundreds to spend their last cent to get aboard the steamer and land at Juneau or Dvea. . “There is absolutely no_work for them in the Silver Bow "Basin mines above Juneau nor at the Treadwell mine on Douglass Island, across the channel. Forty per cent of the men now in Alaska looking for gold are dead broke, without means to get away. If the rush continues, which now seems to have been stimulated by reason of low fares, I predict more ::uman suffering than language can por- ray.” e McCARTY TO BE ARRESTED. Charged With Neglecting to Provide Sus- tenance for His Horses on the Canty Ranch. MODESTO, Car., March 9.—District At- torney Fulkerth wrote a letter to “White Hat” McCarty last Thursday informing him that he must feed the band of thoroughbred horses starving on J. M. Canty’s ranch or be prosecuted. No at- tention was paid by McCarty to the threat. This afternoon Sheriff Purvis, at the in- stance of the District Attorney, swore to a complaint before Justice Townes charging McCarty and his son Joseph with will- fully neglecting to provide sustenance for their horses, and a warrant was issued. The Sheriff intends serving the warrant to-morrow. IR DOBLE MURDER Simon Raten Has Confessed That He Took the Lives of Two Japanese. Strong Chain of Circumstantial Evi- dence Forged Around the Suspect. SACRAMENTO, Carn., March 9.—Link by link a chain of circumstantial evidence is being forged about Simon Raten, who was arrested by Sheriff Johnson on Satur- day evening for the murderer of the two Japanese slain near Arno station last Tuesday. While investigating as to the date on which Raten went to work for Farmer Rutter, on whose ranch he was arrested, Under Sheriff Dan Reese to-day learned that Raten had acknowledged that he nad Kkilled two Japanese a few days before he secured employment. ‘When Raten applied for employment he stated that he was an expert machinist, and as Rutter had an_engine in need of repairs, he engaged him. Rutter sent a Chinaman named Ah Kow to assist Raten on the engine, This Chinaman has been in Rutter’s employ for nearly thirty years, and the latter states he is absolutely truth- fal and trustworthy. After the two men had been working for a time Raten questioned the Chinaman in regard to the amount of wages he received, and the conversation then turned to the low rate of wages which the Japanese were willing to labor for. Raten expressed himself as greatly an- tagonistic to Japanese and told the China- man that he had killed two Japsthe day before, but instead of saying that he had shot them, he claimed that he had beat them to death with a club. There are many other minor facts in the vossession of ‘Sheriff Johnson that lead him to believe that Raten is without a doubt the murderer. —_— The Yountville Inquiry. SUISUN, Car., March 9.—In regard to the charges made against the directors of the Veterans’ Home at Yountville, Supe- rior Judge Buckles, who is chairman of the investigation committee, has requested TrE CALL correspondent to state that no report has been agreed apon and no con- clusion reached, nor can there be until after next Saturday, when the evidence will be Lear: Policeman Rosekamp Dead.

Rey del Bandidos Captured the Long- Distance Event as He Pleased From Red Rcot. The week’s racing opened at Ingleside with delightful weather ana a large crowd n attendance. The sport wasexcellent and the talent fared well throughout the day. Enough outsiders dropped in to make the sport exhilarating and spicy. Two hot first ehoices crossed the plate in front, with horses at most remunerative odas capturing the other three events. “Doc” Robbins made a neat little clean-» up in the opening four-furlong dash with his two-year-old Mary K. The talent overlooked the fact that the filly liked a fast track and let her go to the post 4 to 1, making Gordon a 3 to 2 favorite. The filly shook off the bunch soon after the barrier was raised and won easily, with the favor- ite finishing second. The Loue stable’s big colt Rey del Ban- didos was a 7 to 10 choice for the mile and a quarter selling event. Basso, who com- manded strong support in the betting, made the running to_the stretch, where the favorite passed him and fairly rolled in. Red Root, a 50 to 1 outsider, swerving badly at the end, finished in the place. Foremost was third. A five-furlong dash, with light welter- weights up, bad a hard look about it, and all of the starters received more or less support. Morven at first opened a 3 to 2 choice, receding later to twos. The sec- ond choice, William Pinkerton, was quick- est away ana was never caught, winning easily from Veragua. There was some liberal scratching among the entries in the fourth event, a six-fur- long run. All declined the issue, with | the excention of seven. The race looked | a “moral” for Gratify, and 35 to 100 was the price offered against him going to the post. Dan Honig’s fast mare, Charm, a 12 to 1 shot in the ring, showed a world of speed, leading until within a furlong from the wire, when the favorite went to the drive the 50 to 1 shot Tobey took the place from Pique by a head. The big upset of the day occurred in the last event at seven furlongs. Lobengula was again made a hot favorite, his odds gradually being forced down from 9 to 10 to 7 to 10. The only other starters were Thelma, Vinctor and Derfargilla. fancied in the order named, the latter mare being as good as 12to 1 in the books. The start was not a good one, Vinctor and Thelma getting away poorly. Derfargilla went out in the lead and was never headed, passing the wire two lenghts in advance of Vinctor with tie favorite 1n third place. __Track and Paddock Items. To-morrow will be “ladies’ day” at In- gleside. The management is making preparations to have the programe one of rare excellence. Mary K was as good as 8 to 1 in the bet- ting. fieet, the 100 to 1 shot, ran in second po- sition until opposite the sadaling paddock, finally finishing third. A 2 Dissatisfied with the showing his horses have been making of late, A. B. S;n'ecke!s, president of the new jockey club, has dis- charged trainer Tom Boyle and all o(. the men and hoys under his charge. Galen Brown, one of the owners of the great sprinter, Libertine, will handle the horses in future. . 3 3 Slogger Sullivan arrived at the Baldwin Hotel Sunday evening and the air was blue with fighting talk. Even Tod Sloane was on the warpath. Taking exceptions to some newspaper criticisms of his ndmg’; he armed himself with a huge ‘Perfecto, on which he puffed lustily, and declared, gmt nothing short of a reporter would do im for breakfast. Woe be to the poor newspaper man who in_future has the au- dacity to criticise his riding, for the dimin- utive rider promises a rare pyrotechnical n'x:pla{. 2 Joe Murphy, the St. Louis ex-newspaper reporter, ballplayer and sprinter, evidently aspires to act in the role of dictator at In- gleside track. Mr. Murphy acts as as- sociate_judge in the stand with Captain James I-i Rees, the most popular turiman that ever visited California. For some un- known reason Handicapper Ralph Tozer, who, by the way, is a Californian, found disfavor in the eyes of the associate judge, and at a recent meeting of the Pacilic Coast Jockey Club the office of handicap- per was declared vacant. If Mr. Murphy is as skillful at alloting weights as he is at placing horses some rare good finishes m’:}y be expected. he gamblers die hard. The poolroom establishment on Pauper alley, with Jerry Driscoll, Henry Schwartz and Charley Kingsley at the head of the concern, started up again vesterday and under some flimsy pretext are again seeking to evade the law, The police authorities should see to it that a patrol-wagon is backed up in front of the den and a consignment of these worthies together with their dupes front and won easily by four lengths.
