THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MARCH 20,. 1896 UCKLEY, DAGETT, CARLISLE AND GOLD They May Get Mixed Up in the Local Demo- cratic Fight. THE FEDERAL BRIGADE Buckieyites Are Whooping Up Things and Spitting on the Floor. ARE AFTER THE LOCAL PLUMS Some Early Rumors About Ambitions in the “Decent” Element of the Junta. The Democratic politicians are putting in the week doing a tremendous amount of talking and getting ready to proceed next week with meetings, committees and those definite things that are teethin the turn- ing political ratchet-wheel. The enmity between the Buckley and Junta factions is much more bitter than ever since since last Saturday. The chasm is wide and deep, but both sides can shout bad names across it. All possibility of compromise seems just now to be gone and both sides look away ahead to even rival municpal tickets on election day. The State convention is three months off, June 16, so there is plenty of time for the primary election for the selection of delegates to it. The primary will not likely be held by either faction before the last of May and enrollment will not begin untll the middle of May. Meantime each side will do its utmost to gather strength and get its organization in good working condition. Boss McNab is quietly active smoothing out the district difficulties in the Junta’s general . committee. seem to have already secured all they t and to be satisfied. The Forty-fourth district row. which, before the meeting of the State Central Committee, was sup- posed to be a hot one, in which Rainey was to be squelched, has apparently sub- sided with the Rainey element pleased. “I can’t tell what will be done until Mr. Sullivan appoints that grievance commit- tee. Since Buckley has been beaten we care little who has the committee,” was the way Rainey’s district boss, George Maxwell, expressed his satisfaction yester- day. The Federal brigade, Carlisle and gold promise to cut quite a figure in the local campaign for the State Convention. Dag- gett and others of the Federal brigade are understood to be ordered, or at least re- quested, to see that the California Demo- cratic delegation to Chicago is for Carlisle and “sound money.” Daggett’s ifluence will undoubtedly be | it Py thrown strongly in the interest of his ad- ministration masters, and with the assist- ance of Rainey, Welburn and others he mav control the San Francisco delegation to the State Convention, along with many delegates from other parts of the State. Of course it_is too early for the definite shaping of things on Presidential candi- dates and National policy, but there is already talk among the Buckleyites of uniting in opposition to Carlisle, partly as a local war measure. But then gold and silver Democrats are scattered through each faction, regardless of the local split. Sam Rainey is understocd to be a bimetal- list. It’s just talk up at the Junta headquar- ters in the Flood building. The Junta is using the rooms of the State Democratic Club, and so enjoy carpets, pictures and real nice chairs. Sam Braunhart threw hisleg over a chair last night, rubbed his head as usual and made vigorous denial that Rainey controls the Junta. BBl can take the general committee by districts,” he declared, ‘‘and show that Rainey does not control over a hundred votes. The decent people in this organiza- tion will see that he is kept down.” The *‘decent” people who take an inter- est in the Junta and the Government have quite a collection of political aspirations ameng them. However they will not al- low Rainey to give them office, of course. One hears that A. A. Watkins wants to be a delegate to the National convention; that Alex Vogelsang would like to be State Senator and, may be, Superior Judge; that M. C. Hassett still has ambi- tions to grace the bench; that T. J. Pinder has a wistful eye on the Recordership, and 80 on. It has long been understood that Chair- man W. P. Sullivan expects at least one of the Democratic nominations for Sheriff and_that Gavin McNab would make a good attorney for some public official. Any number of would-be legislators are fighting Buckley and Rainey. The Buckleyites are getting ready fora tremendous whoop, and they will do every- thing possible, with the aid of Buckley’s masterful advice, to fill up their ranks, Big red banners stretched across the front of the new headquarters at 935 Mar- ket street announce, ‘‘Regular Democratic General Committee” and ‘‘Registration Bureau.” The boys are all welcome up there. Daniel M. Gavigan, secretary of the general committee, has charge after the Recorder’s office closes. There are no frills on the Buckley downtown head- quarters, though they are geing to put in some tin spittoons for style. Yesterday afternoon Dan Gavigan started downstairs to the hardware-store pelow to buy some cuspidors, but he quit when he learned before getting there that A. A. Watkins, who beat James H. 0’ Brien that time and who tried to adjourn the committee sine die, had just got the store. The Bucklc{ites wouldn’t even spit in cuspidors sold by Watkins. The old man who came slowly in last evening smoking rubber_bands in a pipe was an ola backer of Buckley south of Market. i “Is there a meetin’ of the Twenty- eighth here to-night?”” he inquired. “No? Well, some of the boys said so. I've had ihe Jumbago in me back, and nailed to the bea for three months, and I'm just gettin’ 'round, and I wanted to see the meetin’."” : wWell, come around and spit on the fioor, and bring your friends,” said Dan, with genial Democratic welcome. Beginning next week a committee on the glad band, which will also iook after naturalization, will be kept posted at the quarters. ha;;lg]l‘x: pefore last a committee was ap- pointed to prepare a report of the proceed- ings before the State Central Committee and resolutions vigorously denouncing the doings of Chairman Gould, Gavin McNab and some others. The cqmmm.ee consists of Samuel Newman, A. T. Spotts, Joseph Rothschila, Henry Ach, T. J. Gallagher and D. M. Gavigan. The report and reso- Jutions will be read Monday evening at 0dd Fellows’ Hall at the meeting of the seneral committeeand general rally called. Sudge Robert Ferral, George R. B. Hayes ghd other orators will dispense eloquence itriol. e i m}?ev'i;r:ning next week threedistrict mass- meetings per week will be held to keep things booming and all the features of a campaign will be kept going in business hg‘hvfifiuva is the outcome of the State Tne Rainey people | Convention,” said Secretary D. M. Gavi- gan last night, “we will go right ahead with the municipal campaign as the regu- lar party organization. The local organ- ization has exclusive charge of local affairs and the State Convention has nothing to do with it. 5 _“If the Junta people put up a municipal ticket and if they own the election com- mission as they claim to do we will Fu into court and establish our right to have our ticket put on the ballot as the re!%ular Democratic ticket. We have 228 affidavits and plenty of other evidence to prove that the general committee never adjourned and that we are the regular organization. Watkins will never goon the stand and say on_ his oath that the committee adjourned sine die. “The action of the State Central Com- mittee in recognizing the Junta was not so hard a blow as some people imagine, be- cause we stand just where we stood before. We took the stand in advance that the committee had no jurisdiction, and we an- nounced that we put in an appearance simply to protest against any action being taken or to accept any fair offer of com- promise if one was made.” Some of the Buckleyites turned Webster loose on the Junta yesterday.: The "Eollies” have long been wondering what “Junta” meantanyway—that is,}{enerally, not in San Francisco.” James H. O'Brien broke an engagement and hustled up a big dictionary. I found that the dictionarv was right,” said Jim. “Here she is,”” and he displayed again the paper on which he had copied Noah Webster’s “wipe” at McNab, Rainey and Daggett. What O’Brien had copied for the Buckley archives was the follow- ing: A select council or l!!embl( which delibe- rates in secret on any affair of government; a meeting or collection of men combined for se- cret deliberation and intrigue for party pur- & faction; a cabal, as & junta of minis- The puzzling sons of party next appeared, In dark cabals and mighty juntas met. THOMPSON. James McKinley, the Daggettite mem- ber of the Junta’s general committee and night guardian of the Mint, dropped one of the bits of political wisdom that fell yesterday, The gentle old man filled his pipe again and slowly said: *I have seen polities, sir, for these more than twenty years. Men go up and are good and they 2o down and are damned. It's all like the wind. It blows from the east to day and to-morrow it blows from the northwest. And there you are.” . Just ndw'the local Democratic breezes are northeasters. Of course it's possible that zephyrs from the south may come. But thereis no sign yet that the storm signals will come down before November. THEY ELUDED THE LA A Young Couple Married at Sea on the Steamer City of Sydney. Guatemala’s Statules Require a Sixty Day Notice Which Was Not Given. The passengers on the Pacific Mail Com- pany’s steamer City of Sydney witnessed a genuine sea marriage during the run from San Jose de Guatemala to Champerico. At the former port a young couple got aboard and the purser gave\them the bridal chamber. As soon asthe sieamer was well out to sea the groom presented the following letter to Captain Frank Johnston: GE, PROTESTANT CHURCH, TEMALA, March 2, 18 Captain Johnston. Commander Pacific Mail Steamship City of Sydney—MY DEAR SIE: Allow me 1o introduce myself (pastor of the Protest- ant church in this city) for the purpose of commending to your good offices the bearer, Andrew Jackson Bloom, and his fisncee, Miss Selina Thiel. They had made all arrangements for the ceiebration of their marriage in our church (guests invited, banquet prepared and church decorated) when, at the last moment, it was discovered that a hitch with the laws of this country made the performance of the cere- mony {mpossible. As General Young, the United States Minis- ter, is absent the marrisge could not take place in the legation. In these embarrassing circumstances their plans have been quite dis- arranged and unless they can arrange the mat- ter otherwise they will be compelled to undergo the inconvenience and chagrin of dancing at- tendance on the laws of Guatemala for a term of at least two months. 1 have therefore recommended them to take a short sea voyage on the City of Sydney and draw upon your kindness and courtesy to erform the ceremony for them under the United States flag on the high seas. 1f joucan make it convenient to do this you will very greatly oblige two worthy but lovesick young people and also yours, very truly, Ep M. HAYMAKER. Captain Johnston was in a quandary for a time, but when the news spread among the cabin passengers he was forced to give in and perform the ceremony. Immedi- ately all was bustle on board the steamer. The chief steward put the cooks to work and a collation that would do credit to a first-class hotel was soon prepared. The passengers got out their best clothes and there was quite a cabin full of people to see the young couple made man and wife. The Sydney did not get away from Guat- emala until 11 o’clock at night and it was two hours later before the ceremony was performed. Chief Engineer Rosseter gave the bride away and R. C. McGregor, a student at Stanford, acted as best man, while Miss Mary Sheylin of this City was the only bridesmaid. The Sydney arrived at Champerico the next day and Mr. and Mrs. Bloom went ashore to await the arrival of the next southbound steamer. Captain Johnston says that in the circum- stances he could not very well refuse to perform the ceremony. The young couple were to have been married the day the steamer sailed and it was a bitter disappointment to them when they found that the laws of the land were against them. In Guatemala a foreigner must give sixty days’ notice to the authorities of his intention to wed, and this Bloom failed to do. The groom is an artist, well known in Central America, and the bride was a music-teacher. Captain Johnston says they made a handsome couple. The passengers who arrived on the City of Sydney were: W. N. Wells, Dr. J. J.Clark, Mrs. de Halla, C. J. Plerson, C. H. Sanders, Mrs. J. Schneider, Mrs. N. Berkel, M..Gonialdi, J. 8. Klee, Dr.J. E. Whittmore, E. Quinn, Mrs, W. W. Wells, E. C. Stark. H. Price, John E. Johnson, J. C. Schnel- der, W. M. Hersy, Angel Nonetti,"Fannie Clark. A. Martinez, Hal Noble, Dr. Frank Griffiths, C. H. Gilbert, John "Aldrich, J. G. Osborne, Magil ; Sfrs. M. Kilburii, Mrs. Monetti, Mrs. harles Redecker, R. Withers, Mrs. . McGregor, Henry Westen, Aginlar, C. Kilburn, Mary Shevlin, Mrs. E. H. Burrows, Mrs. Tabor. C. H. Gilbert is professor of zoology in Stanford University, and in company with R. C. McGregor, C. J. Pierson and E. C. Stark, students at the university, visited Panama and the Central American States in search of specimens. ‘Ihey were very successful, and have returned with a great number of very rare reptiles, insects and birds, which will be mounted at the uni- versity. Dr. James P. Clark is a well-known physician of Washington, D. C., and Miguel Gonzales is one of the lar-est cof- fee planters in Guatemala, and A. Martinez and his bride are on their wedding tour. They were married in Guatemala tge day before the steamer sailed, and in that re- spect were more lucky than Mr. and Mrs. loom. The passengers on the City of Sydney know very littleabout the Nicaraguan war. The rebels have possession of Corinto, and it is closed to shipging. In con- sequence the steamer could not call there. Ezeta was at Panama when Yhe steamer left, and he was completely stranded. His credit was gone, and he was looking in vain for the wherewithal tokeep up a; pearances. The tug Barclay Golden, whic sailed with the Ezeta expedition, was at Amsulm when the City of Syduney ar- rived, and was ex;onud to sail for San Francisco the next THE GOING SUTED SERVICE Barney Schreiber’s Cast-Off Took the Gunst Stake in a Canter. RACING AT THE BAY DISTRICT The Favorites Fared Badly—Strath- flower Easily Defeated the Warm Choice Flashlight. The weather was threatening and the California Jockey Club had only a fair at- tendance for its reopening day at the Bay District track. The card was a lengthy one, there being seven events down for de- cision. The Gunst selling stakes over a mile and a sixteenth, worth $1500 to the first horss, was the special feature of the day’s sport. There were but six starters, with Wheel of Fortune carrying but 99 pounds opening an even-money favorite in the betting. Rosebud was an 8 to 5 second choice in the opening betting, but receded until 2} and 3 was obtainable. The supporters of Service argued that the track, which was heavy, was all in his | choice, bn\ré favor, and from 314 his price was gradu- ally rubbed to 11to 5. This latter heavy play had the effect of causing the odds against the “‘Wheel” to go back in the books to 3 to 2. The race provea a most one-sided affair. When the barrier was lifted Shields on Service made play for the lead, which he secured, and the old horse led the field 4 merry chase, winning in romping fashion by four lengths in 1:4934. Rosebud got the place, a couple of lengths before the hard-ridder favorite. Fortuna, Dungarven and Monita cut but little figure in the running. It was a stormy day for favorites, and the handicappers and form-players were allin bad form. The only winning favor- ites were Sea Spray and ‘the pdds-on Lo- bengula. = 3 Fourteen cheap selling-platers were the first to go.to the post in a five-furlong scramble. Zoolein has apvarently sadly deteriorated as a_sprinter, for, ruling an 8 to 5 choice, he finished third. Faro,a 15 to 1 shot,'and Middleton fought it out, the former winning easily at the finish by four lengths. Third place was the best the favorite, Early Notice, could finish in the two-year- old dash at four furlongs., The filly opened at 6 to 5, receding to 2 to 1. Torpedo, a 4 to 1 chance, made all of the running, win- ning by a length from Gordon. ‘The fourth race, at seven and a half far- longs, was decided over the inside course. Sea Spray, ridden by Bob Isom, played down from sixes to 11 to 5, was in front from the jump, and in a hard drive through the stretch with lke L passed the wire half a length to the good. Favory came fastat theend, finishing a good third. The crowd again got aboard the wrong horse in the next event, a six-furlong spin. Strathflower opened an 8 topd THE CALL’ RACING CHART.

The starting gate owned by Joe Harvey was given a trial on the inside track at the conclusion of the last race, but did not score a signal success. It differs irom the Australian_invention inasmuch that in- stead of using strips of cotton webbing for the barrier, two wooden spars are used that work on the principle of a gate, swinging to either side at the touch of a lever. When the lever was pressed the spar on the right side failed to fly back and was jumped on by one of the horses, causing a compound ‘fracture that almost caused the toiling inventor to weep. TO BE DECIDED TO-DAY. San Francisco’s Pesthouse May Be Lo- cated Near Quarantine on Angel Isiand. Mayor Sutro received information from Washington yesterday that the Secretary of War is about to take action on the ap- plication of the local authorities to have the Pesthouse located on Angel Island where the United States quarantine sta- tion is now situated. *‘When the subject was first broached, after the citizens had protested against the hospital being located within the City and County, Congressman Maguire took the matter up and after seeing Surgeon-Gen- eral Wyman of the United Statet Quaran- tine Service telegraphed that the Secretary of War might grant the necessary permis- sion to erect the Pesthouse on 8overn' ment ground. - When General Forsyth heard of the matter, however, he protested that he did not care to have his soldiers placed in jeopardy, and so stated to Mayor Sutro when the two officials held a personal in- teryiew.
