THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, MARCH 17, 1896 11 DEMOCRATS TALK PEACE The Buckleyites Are Sending Out Doves Amid the Roar of Battle. RAINEY AND BUCKLEY FOR IT Both Sides Talk War and Purity and Begin Whisperings of Com- promise. The Democratic local situation as it pre- sented itself yesterday was one of bitter and uncompromising war between the Buckley and the Junta factions, with talk of compromise already reaching the inde- pendent observers’ ears above the roar of battle. The Democratic State Central Commit- tee, after a comparatively brief session last Baturday afiernoon and evening, at which Gavin McNaband his friends held nearly all of the thirty-seven proxies, at which the chairman ruled and fought uniformly for the Junta and at whicha majority of the members present were controlled, through Mint, gubernatorial or internal revenue office patronage, in favor of the McNab element, adopted a resolution directing the chairman and secretary of the State Central Committee to issue the call for the State convention to the Junta Democratic organization in San Francisco. This official recognition the Junta to give it presti campaign preceding tate conven- tion, and alsa to give it prestige before the State convention when rival delegations knock for admission. The Junta expects besides that, by virtue of this action, its delegation will be put on the temporary roll, and have a vote in the selection ofa temporary chairman and the committee on credentials. If the Junta delegation is thes recog- nized at the opening of the convention the Buckley contesting delegation will have the worst of itas far as the action of the chairman and the committee on creden- tials are concerned. Thatisa big advan- tage, but beyond that the two delegations would have an even show, if, indeed, the Buckley delegation did not have the best of it, throwgh the showing of superior numbers—a party consideration which a State convention is not apt to ignore. But_the State convention is quite a dis- tance in the future, and a very great num- ber of things may h' ppen in San Francisco Democratic politics Letween now and June 16, when the convention will meet at Sac- ramento. As things now_stand the local Demo- ic party is divided into three elements those who suppert the Buckiey side and laims to bring the “regular” organiz those who stand by the Junta, and those who have no use for =ither side be- cause thev know that Buckley controls one organization and that Rainey controls the other, and that a vote or a word ior either side is equally a vote or a word in support of bossism. The fight as it has developed so farisa fight of Buckley against Rainey. The only occasion for such a strange fight is that Rainey has not vet secured what he con slxders his just terms on adivision of spoi l’I’h:n. Sam Rainev controls the Junta in conjunction with John Daggett, Superin- tendent of the Mint, is not denied in pri- vate conversation by any of the leading members of the Junta, and it is de- nied only for publication by Gavin Mec- Nab and Chairman W. "P. Sullivan when they are being interviewed. The only doubt held by those conversant with the political affairs of the Junta concern- ing the policy and the future of the organ- ization bas concerned Ed Lanigan, who controls between forty and fifty votes in the Junta’s new general committee. With Lanigan on Rainey’s side, the control of the Junta’s general committee is conceded to be settled. The next few days will develop some- thing definite concerning the possibility of a compromise between the factions on a zeneral open primary or other proposition. fi'ne Buckleyites are now as anxious as they bave been for some time to reach an agreement regarding a primary election at which they will get at least half the election officers. As far as definite indica- tions go the Buckleyites will proceed to hold a primary election at which they will muster the biggest voting strength they are capable of, while the Junta managers seem inclined to avoid a primary and to appoint delegates to the State convention. The Buckleyites propose to hold a meet- ing of their general committee next Thursday, at which resolutions will be adopted expressing their indignation at the rulings and course of Chairman Gould at the Saturday meeting of the State Cen- tral Committee, their opinion of the State Central Committee in_general and their determination to go ahead as the regular local party organization. In the meantime, amid the talk of.war, compromise propositions are being heard. THE PASTOR ANDTHE LAD, Mrs. Prescott Says Rev. Mr. El- lis’ Charges Against Her Are . Ridiculous. She Denies Coaching Little Girls to Tell Infamous Stories About an Old Man. 0AKLAND OrFIcE S8AN Francisco CAvry, } 908 Broadway, March 16, Mrs. Prescott, secretary of the Humane Society, is very angry with Rev. John ‘W. Eliis, pastor of the Centennial Presby- terian Church, who has appeared as the champion of William Clark, the old East Qakland man who is charged with im- proper conduct toward three little girls. The pastor went to the District Attorney and asked for the testimony, and while reading it suggested to Deputy District Attorney Melvin that the little ones had been coached by Mrs. Prescott or they never could have told such stories. Said Mrs. Prescott yesterda};: ek, harges are ridiculously false, for as a z':}fi‘t::ol ffct 1 never talked with . the children alone in my life. I saw them once,snd then in the presence of Chief Lloyd and District ‘Attorney Melvin. Thut was on the morning after Clark’s arrest. The offic ers thbught that perhaps the children would more freely tell their stories if their parents were mnotin the room, 8o they sent for me to be present. The children were brought inoneat atime, and they told the same story then that they told e witness-stand. e ey oz'xlul:g that 1ever n.i.‘!om t.ha)mA n their testimony was to try to im- ;figls‘g({lp':u their minds the necessity of the truth and nothing more. 1 told them that what they said might send the man to prison and I advised them to be very careful. Thatis the extentof the “coaching” I did, if coach- ing it is. I would not dere to attempt to tell 2 child what to say (should Iso desire, which I do not), for I appreciate that under cross-ex- amination they would impeach their testi- mony within five minutes. Mr. Ellis came to my office about a week ago and seemed to be trying to honestly get at the facts, so I hel him all I could. He asked me if 1did not think it s case of persecution end I told him I did not, as I consider the stories of the three children overwhelming. That was the only time I ever spoke with the man and I know nothing about him. Rev. J. W. Ellis is the minister who was the center of many charges of misconduct and unministerial conduct in San Fran- cisco about four years ago. The only REAL ESTATE TRANSAOTIONS. 1. B.

Driscoll, lot on W [ 1 FAVORITES LED THE WAY Five Out of Six Favorites at Inglesidle Won Very Easily. REY DEL TIERRA IN FRONT. The Handicap Proved a Gift for Tom Griffin’s Good Colt Sir Vassar. Thera were no extraordinary features about the racing at Ingleside yesterday. Five out of six favorites sauntered past the wire in the easiest possible fashion, and a feeling of distrust prevailed in the neighborhood of the combination book. The card was only a fair one, yet the at- tendance was quite up to the average. The downpour of rain left the track heavy, but not sloppy. Never did the ex- cellent drainage system show to better ad- vantage than on this occasion. ¢ The two-year-old division opened the racing. Eight youngsters started in a four-furlong scramble with Rey del Tierra ruling a 9 to 10 favorite. The brother to Rey Alfonso ran into the lead when straightened away in the stretch and won easily with Ingleside at 40 to 1 finishing in the place. The redoubtable William Pinkerton struck easy compan; indeed in the Tace following, & five-furlong dash. He was in with some cheap selling-platers and the ring held him at 1 to 5. He ran over the top of his field, passing the wire first under a pull, two lengths before Last Chance. ut four started in the seven-furlong handicap, which terminated in the proces- sional order. Tom Griffin's good colt Sir Vassar, in at ninety-eight pounds, was a 13 to 10 choice, and,” leading from start to tinish, won in & -lfop from Wyoming, the second choice, Kowalsky finished in the show. The mile and a quarter selling event roved a windfall for McNaughton & {{uir’s uncertain quality, the = hooded Basso. The Falsetto horse was a 3to5 favorite with Garner up, and sent to the front after passing the stand, won as he pleased from Oakland in the slow time of 2:1414, with Foremost in the show. The only upset of the day occurred in the race that followed, the mile-selling affair. Pittsburg Phil’s “left over” racer, Ed Kearney, commanded first call in the betting, and at no time during the running looked like the money. Service, the 13 to 5 second choice, with Shields up, made a runaway race of it, winning in a common canter from Collins with the favorite third. Dan Honig’s fast mare, Charm, fell heir to a very easy purse in the last event of the day, a six-furlong spin. Starting a 3 to 5 chance in the betting, she led her field from the jump, winning under restraint a length before Boreas. There was quite a play on Rico, forcing his odds down from 100 to 40 to 1, and he tinished third. Track and Paddock Items, Riley Grannan was missed from thé bet- ting ring yesterday. The young plunger isnow aboard the cars speeding away to his old Kentucky home, deeply absorbed in a bound copyof “Winter Racing, 1ts Causes and Effects.” Alex Shields, owner of the old racehorse Logan, has returned to California from *THE CALL” RACING CHART.

St. Patrick’s day at Ingleside track will be celebrated by the muchly talked of Shamrock handicap. It will result in a grand reunion of the Murphy family. The starters in the bandicap are Tim, Pat and Babe Murphy. Presiding in the stand will be Mr. Tim Mm&phy of the “Texas Steer” company, With Judge Joe Murphy as asso- ciate. “Tom” Murphy will do the starting and petite Lucille Murphy will present the green silken sack containing the purse to the fortunate jockey. The pro- gramme for this special occasion will be printed on green cardboard, and that nothing may be lacking genial Secretary S8am Leake stated that the purse would be paid in greenbacks. The hills surrounding the track are now covered by a velyety mantle of living green, and no doubt the legal turf advisers will be on the lookout for green 'uns. It is stated, how- ever, that greengoods men will be barred from the track. The race isone of the most catching novelties the management of the new course has yet given. FOR OLYMPIC HANDBALL Members Who Have Subscribed -Liberally to the Fund. Eight Hundred of the One Thousand Dollars Required Has Been Collected. Atarecent meeting of the directors of the Olympic Club it was decided that if the patrons of handball would manifest a desire to support the directors in a finan- cial way a magnificent handball court, su- perior in every particular to anything of its kind in America, would soon loom up on the vacant lot that lies westof the club’s building proper. Director Short, through whose untiring efforts this grandest of all indoor pastines —handball—has made such wonderful strides in popularity, said that the patrons of the game would gladly lend theiraid, vrovided the directers would not exact too much from them. It was then moved and seconded that the club give $2000 toward the erection of a court, provided the patrons of the game raise $1000 cf the $3000 that will e re- quired to complete the structure. It can be imagined the interest that is manifested in the pastime when yesterday Director Short informed a representative of THE CarL that $800 of the $1000 was already subscribed. ““1 wish. to inform you,” said Mr. Short, “that the gentlemen who sub:cribed with such marked liberality are not generally members who ‘hold down’ the courts from daylight until dark. The largest sums'T received were from new members, who only occasionally play ball, but who have become zhomugh}’y Infatuated with the p"You would be surprised if I should give youthe names of some men who refused to contribute to the fund. I can assure you, however, that the $1000 necessary will be forthcoming and that the Olympic Club will soon be in possession of the handsomest handball court in the world. Hanoball is unquestionably the grandest of all athletic exercises and I predict that within a year the club will haye among its large mem- bership 500 handball enthusiasts.” SIMEBODY TOLD TALES E. F. Wheeler, a Grocer, Sues C. S. Capp, the Real Estate Agent. He Alleges That His Tenants Were Induced to ‘Leave by Mali- cious Gossip. A damage suit for $10,000, based on alle- gations of rather a peculiar nature, will be filed in the County Clerk’s office this morning. The plaintiff is E. ¥. Wheeler, a grocer who owns considerable real ‘es- tate in the western portion of the city, and the defendent C. 8. Capp, the well-known Montgomery-street real-estate man, ‘Wheeler alleges that Capp was his agent for the collection of the rents of his prop- erty, and that while acting in that. capac- ity he made statements to the tenants, Mrs. John Rafferty, Mrs. Levy and Mrs. C. McUarthy, that the houses were leaking and not.fit for human habitatien, which induced them to léave the buildings, and that for a long time he was unable to tind new occupants for the property. He claims that the statements he’ attributes to Capp were without foundation and ma- licious, and that he has been damaged in the sum named. His attorneys are Barry & Bianchi. Mr. Capp was amused when informed last evening that suit wasto be brough‘ against him, “It will amount to nothing,” he said, “for I never made the statements he cred- its to me, nor gave him any other cause for action. About a year ago I loanea Wheeler some money out of kindness, and to secure the notes he gave me at that time he assigned me the rents of his prop- erty. "yWhen the notes became due he owed me $20 more than their face called for, and after waiting forsome time I sued him and got a judgment. Previous to the suit and while I held his assignment of his rents he went to the tenants and attempted to col- lect the money from them. I had warned them not to pay him and when he found that he could get nothing he gave them notice not to recognize me as the owner of the rents, as if they did not pay them he would sue. Of course, this put them inan annoying position and they left rather than be an- noyed by him. He, and not I, caused the people to look for other accommodations. “The Sheriff sold one piece of Wheeler’s Eropeny to satisfy my judgment, and 1 ought it in, but he redeemed it within the time required. I think the man’s mind must be a little bit clouded or he would not begia such a suit. He sued me in the Justice’s Court a short time ago for $200, alleging that he was damaged 1n that sum because 1 had failed to collect his rents, but the case was thrown out of court.” ANOTHER GREAT RAFT. W. E. Baines to Build One of Over 6,000,000 Feet and Bring It to San Francisco by Sea. ‘W. E. Baines, the lumberman of Oregon, who some months since brought the enor- mous Joggins raft to this City, and who bas been here for some time past, will go 5 north on the next steamer to construct an- other raft. It will then be brought down the coast by a tug. Mr. Baines Lopes to fight shy of storms, and if he does, will make a handsome sum, as he did on the last occasion. Just be- fore that, however, be lost a raft, and this set him back to the extent of about $25,- 000. Mr. Baines is convinced now, how- ever, that he knows how to manage these eat rafts o as to cause the losses to be ght. He has picked up much valuable information from former experiences. ““The new raft,” he said last night at the Lick House, *‘will contain between 6,000,- 000 and 7,000,000 feet of timber, being about the size of the last one. It will be built on the Columbia River, above Astoria, and directly and indirectly 2 great many men will be employed. “I am satisfied that this is now the way td bring timber to San Francisco. It is practically impossible to bring it here by rail from Oregon or Washington, and, as a general thing, it is too costly to bring it in the old way by ship. The solution of the matter is found in the raiting of it. *By this method from $2 50 to $3 on each thousand feet may be saved overthe old means of brincing it here by water. I expect .to have this big raft completed and landed in San Francisco by June, or at the latest by July.” TO ANSWER VINING.
