kS THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY., APRIL 30, 1896. BATIVES WisIT PORT HABFORD, Delightful Trip Through aj Rich Agricultural | Region. ' | Levy, Johnson, Noble, Cassin, Gesford and PARTAKE OF A FEAST. Treated to a Barbecue Under the Big Trees at Sycamore Springs. | ANNUAL BALL AT THE RAMONA Treasurer Henry Martin’s Success as a Premier Danseuse—A Mock Trial. SAN LUIS OBISPO, Cavn., April 29.— The Native Sons’ itinerary to-day in- cluded an excursion to Port Harford, | a barbecue at Sycamore Springs and | the annual Grand Parlorball. To-morrow | the main business session, with the elec- tions, will be held. The banquetin the evening will be the concluding feature of the weeky with the exception of the Fri- day excursion through the rich agricul- tural region to Los Olivos. At 10 o'clock this forenoon a special train started with the delegates and sev- eral hundred others for Port Harford and | the beautiful harbor, which 1s praised by every shipping man on the coast. From 200 to 30C of the residents went ia | their own carriages and on horseback, and | the visitors had every rig that is owned by | the tiverymen of this city. It was a giori- ous excursion. In the long train there were three observation cars, which afforded the delegates an excellent opportunity to | see the country. These cars were open on | all sides, and Grand Treasurer Henry Mar- | tin occupied one of them, as the entrance | way was more commodious than in the | other cars. | An incident that caused continual in-| terest on the seven-mile run to the springs | was contributed by twoboys on horse- | back. The highway runs along the line of | the ralroad, through a green and pic- | turesque region, and the boys, lads of 12 or 14, raced with the train the entire dis- | tance. The youngsters made their horses almost fly through theair, and their horse- | manship was of the highest order. Twice the train slowed up, and the boys stayed with it, but when the engineer spurted up at a rate of twenty or twenty-five miles an | hour the horses were also in the race. | At Port Harford che spectacle of fisher- | men hauling in salmon three feet long | wus of secondary interest only to that of | Milk Inspector Dockery riding along the | wharf on a railroad tricycle. Some of the natives made up dancing sets, and the | ponderous aud splintered planks of the | drm old wharf felt a light and merry tread | that they had not known before. When the excursionists returned to | Sycamore Springs the managers of the | barbecue had long rows of tables arranged under the trees, and the beef and the beverages were soon ready. There was | room enough for all, and it was a happy | and thoroughly pleased party that ate under the huge old sycamores. i The barbecue, like every other feature of | this California carnival of hospitality, was managed with exceptional success. Stroll- | ing about the natural mountain park was | a pleasure for hundreds when the dancing pavilion could hold no more. There was | little room for the dancers at any time, but there was less than ever when the | grand officers appeared and announced, “The candidates’ dance.” Henry Martin, the 350-pound corner- stone of the order, was floor manager, and | & dance was never managed with more en- ergy. The band began the college lancers, | when the grand treasurer jumped into the arena and roared: ‘‘Get your partners, gentlemen.” There were nojladies in this | dance. Louis F. Byington of San Fran- | cisco danced with Edwin A, Meserve of | Los Angeles, M. D. Garratt of San Fran- | cisco was the partner of Frank Mattison of | Santa Cruz, and Dr. Hyde, A. F. Brady of | Grass Valley, Delegate Zabala of Salinas and nearly all the other candidates were | in the ring. Henry Martin, the floor manager, danced and hopved and jumped. He laughed and shouted and cheered. He swung his - cane, and clapped his handsand hurried the dancers this way and that and he was a whole good-natured and perspiring cir- cus. The band played "‘Upidee I Dee I Da,” and that just snited Mr. Martin, who threw his familiar straw hat back on his Lead, poised his cane with his left hand, while beating time with his right, and danced as lightly and merrily as a Native Son should always dance. He wore a blue badge and the badge went waving to the tune of the lively “Upidee.” The crovid surged closer and closar and closer. There was hardly space for the candidates to turn, but Mr. Martin foundy rcom and he danced his happy “Upidee.” Al in the set went around blithely in their circle, all having partners but the jovial Martin, who applauded aud drected and managed the affair, laughing gloriously and ever ex- uberant in his littie side performance of “Upidee I Dee I Da.” The crowd roared in amusement. Henry C. Gesford of Napa, tall and bewhiskered, squeezed his way through the throng. Martin caught him and had a partner. Away they whirled, and the audience had to give room, and Martin and C. Gesford hopped and skipped and whirled and ran in the rollicking time of “Upidee.” Mr. Martin perspired, but still he danced. His hat went down on the corner of his fore- head, but still he danced and he laughed an “Upidee.” And his laugh was echoed by all who could see or hear. Itwas the merriest day of Sycamore Springs. Cheers and whistles and shrieks of applause went up as Mr. Martin and his partner madly | pranced their “Upidee.” John T. Greany of San Francisco then started a candidates’ footrace on the level ground near the pavilion. The first race was for grand trustee, in which were en- tered Dunbar, Cassin and McNoble, Dan- bar winning by a lead of six inches. For grand orator Trustees Mattison, Byinzton and Meserve entered. and after a dead heat Meserve won. For outside sentinel Leath- ers, Fiedler and Bouquet entered. Fiedler won. Forinside sentinel Van Orden had to run alone. Henry 8. Martin for grand treasurer ran against time and covered twenty-five yards in eight seconds. The Natives had a mock trial last night at the Ramona, the case being that of the | Fred W. Lees was the detective. | from the contractors. SHNPEDRO TS CHOIE seems, has only been conjecture and has People of the State of California vs. John Doe Miller. W. H. Miller was charged by | Mr. Dennery with having unlawfully and maliciously taken, stolen and carried away a sausage made of dog meat. The prisoner was defended by A ttorneys Frank Coombs and Eugene F. Bert, Carroll Cook and P. Zabala represented the people; Percy V. Long was cierk of the court and The pris- oner was brought into court heavily man- acled. His attorneys immediately regis- tered strenuous ohjections to such & pro- ceeding and the court ordered the man- acles cast off. The jury was: Messrs, Garratt, Tathan, De Golia, Morgan, Clark, Fitzgerald. Circumstantial evidence tended to show that Miller had stolen the sausage. J. P. Dockery was called as a meat and milk ex- pert. Mr. Dockery had some trouble in telling the dog’s variety. He finally con- cluded it had been & Newfoundland. The case was argued and given to the jury. ‘The body was just about to return a ver- dict of “guilty,” when John Leathers, a discharged juryman, confessed to the theft. The annual ball was held at the Ramona Hotel parlors this evening. The ballroom was beantifully decorated. Many beautiful costumes were dispiayed by the young ladies of San Luis Obispo, who made this their special part of the week’s celebration. Some of these wer Mrs. John E.

Anderson. - SANTA-ROSA SENSATION. Mark L. McDonald Sued by an| Attorney fer Wesley Mock. Pay Demanded for Services in Opposing the City’s New Water System. SANTA ROSA, Car., April 29.—A mild sensation was created here this afternoon when it was learned that Mark L. Mec- Donald had been sued for nearly $1000 by one of the attorneys for Wesley Mock in the celebrated case of Mock vs. The City of Santa Rosa. It has long been an open secret here that the Banta Rosa Water Company, of which Mark L. McDonald is president, was pay- ing the bills in the long and expensive hti- gation to prevent the city from accepting and using the new water system. The last phase of this er legal fight was the vetition of the plaintiff for an interlocu- tory injunction restraining the city from accepting the completed water sysiem The matter was heard by Judge Dainger- field early in April. He took the case under advisement, and a decision is looked for daily.. More than a week was spent in the argument, Attorney Lynch for the plaintiff consuming about four days in explaning to the court his views, C. 8. Forquar of Petaluma has also been one of Mr. Mock’s attorneys in this case, and he avers that his services were reas- onably worth $1000, of which only $162 has been paid, and he having assigned his claim to George M. Brush, the latter gen- tleman now seeks to recover the balance due from the president of the Santa Rosa ‘Water Company. The Santa Fe Railway Com- pany Declares for the People’s Harbor. Coast Officials Instructed to Exert Their Influence Against Santa Monica. LOS ANGELES, CAx., April 20.—In the great Santa Monica-S8an Pedro harbor fight the position of the Santa Fe railway system has not been clearly defined here- tofore. It was supposed that its manage- ment would favor San Pedro, but this, it been denied by persons seemingly in a position to know. Now, however, all sur- mises have been set at rest, for it is stated on the authority of persons connected with | the management that the influence of the Santa Fe Company will from now on be thrown to Ban Pedro. . This morning instructions were received at the general offices from Chicago that any effort to help the cause of San Pedro would be dpproved. The friends of San Pedro are jubilant over this new and strong influence to defeat the Santa Mon- ica harbor steal for the especial benefit of Huntington. New life seems to ve infused | into the fight for San Pedro all along the line, and a change at Washington in favor of the real harbor on this coast is antici- pated. et Neah Bay Seal Catches. PORT TOWNSEND, Wasn., April 20.— Despite the fact that the seal herd has nearly all passed north to the breeding- grounds at the Copper Islands, the Indian sealing schooners from Neah Bay con- tinue to add to the unprecedented catch they made in the past six weeks. The schooner Columbia, owned, officered and manned by full-blooded Indians, is the high liner of the fleet, having 246 skins, Altogether about 1000 skins have been taken. Six fatalities comprise the full list of accidents. R Alaska Mail Kecovered. TACOMA, Wasn., April 29.—Advices re- ceived tc-day from Alaska report the find- ing of the American mail which was lost during the big storm. and that it had been forwarded to the posts by Duncan Gillis, who takes in 2000 letters to the miners. POLITICS ON THE PACIFIC COAST. McKinley Forces Lose the Fight for Arizona’s Delegation. BOLT THE CONVENTION. They Refuse to Abide by the Decision of a Large Majority. PRIMARIES IN LOS ANGELES. Lively Contest Between the Otis and Lindley Factions—The Spokanz Convention. PH@ENIX, Ariz., April 29. — Arizona goes against McKinley. The most excit- ing convention ever held in the Territory was that of the Republicans to-day. A contest was waged from 2 until 9 o’clock, when sixty-eight delegates, sixty-two of whom were from Maricopa, Pima and Yavapai contested delegations, let in with balf a vote each, left the convention. The fight was for McKinley instructions, but the Ohioan’s forceslost and then departed. 8ix delegates to St. Louis, all uninstructed, were chosen by the remaining 106 dele- gates, being representatives from each of the twelve counties in the Territory. The bolters will hold a convention to-morrow. e LOS ANGELES PRIMARIES. Linaley and Sheldon Gain a Majority of the Delegatea. LOS ANGELES, CaL., April 29.—The immediate anda chief significance of the Republican caucuses last night and the primaries this afternoon is based on the question of who shall represent this Con- gressional district at St. Louis, and who shall be delegate-at-large from this end of the State to the National Convention. Harvey Lindley, who was defeated by Marion Cannon in 1892, has been making plans for some time with the view of go- ing to St. Louis as district delegate, and ex-Governor Sheldon of Pasadena has been in the hands of his friends as.dele- gate-at-large. The Times here, a Repub- lican morning newspaper, sniffing the battie from afar, has waged unrelenting warfare on the aspirations of both gentle- men, but with indifferent results, as the action of the caucuses and the vote to-day show. There has been no question for weeks but that the McKiniey sentiment was dominant and none but McKinley men were to be placed on guard. But as to who would go to St. Louis was quite an- other matter. The contest that has been waged here has generally been designated as the old *Otis-Lindley fight,” for it seems that the Times opposed Lindley in his race for Con- gress. Caucuses were held all over the city last night and there was marked har- mony everywhere except in the Third Ward—Lindley’s home.” Here there was a split, and to-day there were two dele- gate tickets in the tield. The Lindley op- position ticket was headed, “Third Ward anti-Lindley)—For President, William McKinley.’N The regular caucus ticket in this, like all of the others, was headed, “For President, William McKinley; regu- Jar caucus ticket.” The pollin, ace in the Third Ward was the scene of great bustle all afternoon with a string of voters reaching far out into the street. The ‘‘reguniar’ caucus ticket won easily, and thus the Times' fight was completely los At the caucusses las resolutions were passed in all the wards except the Eighth. Sheldon will now get the indorsement from this district, and will probably defeat U. 8. Grant Jr. of San Diego for the position of delegate-at-large. The Assembly conventions occur next Saturday, when delegates to the Sacra- mento convention will be chosen. e OREGON GOLDITES. night McKinley Judge Northup to Eun Against Con- gressman Ellis. PORTLAND, Og., April 20.—The re- nomination of Representative W. R. Ellis, the free-silver advocate of Eastern Oregon from the Second District, was a bitter pill to the believers in “sound’” money, and was claimed to be a misrepresentation of a majority of the Republicans of the dis- trict. Almost immediately afterward a convention movement to put upa “sound”’- money candidate was started, and it soon assumed definite shape in the selection of Henry H. Northup, County Judge of this county, provided he would accept. Judge Northup's acceptance was filed {o-day at Salem. Apparently about two-thirds of the signers are Republicans and one-third Democrats. About 500 names are attached to the petition. The platform on which Judge Northup will rua is strictly *'sound’’ money. P gl L SPOKANE REPUBLICANS. State Convention Delegates Pledged to an Anti-Silver Man. SPOKANE, Wasu., April 20.—The Re- publican counvention to-day was captured by Wilson men—the friends of Senator Wilson—assisted by the A. P. A.'s. At- torney-General Jones, one of the best- known men 1n the State and a popular ex- ponent of the free-silver doctrine, was de- feated for chairman. A resolution favor- | ing free silver was adopted and another binding the party to support the St. Louis nominee. The delegates to the State Convention were instructed to vote for Harry L. Wii- son for delegate to St. Louis. Wilson is not a free-silver man and does not repre- sent the sentiments of his party in East- ern Washington. The free-silver Republi- cans are irate, and will, it is said, support the Democratic National ticket if it nomi- nates a free-silver man on a free-silver platform, e Lake County Democrats. LAKEPORT, Cav., April 20.—The Demo- cratic County Central Committee met at Kelseyviile to-day and issued a call for primaries on May 28 to elect delegates to a county convention to be held at Lower Lake on June 6. This convention will elect delegates to all conventions except- ing the one for nominating county officers. —_—— Ventura County for McKinley. VENTURA, CAL., April 29.—McKinley delegates were elected in this town to-day and generally over the county. CARPENTERIA BURGLARS. Two Morphine ¥ictims Caught Breaking Into a Drugstore. SANTA BARBARA, CarL.,, April 29.— Two morphine ‘fiends,” a man named Lafayette and a woman known as Lulu Dormer, last night attempted to rob the drugstore of Dr. Marquis at Carpenteria. A neigbbor named Sharkey was aroused by the noise made in forcing the door of the drugstore, and fired upon them. The woman surrendered, but her companion escaped. It 1s believed the man was wounded, as he was seen to fall at the sec- ond pistol shot, but he recovered his feet and ran away. The woman has a criminal record, having been concerned in several petty larcenies in Los Angeles. e = ROBBERY AT BATES. 4 Late Lesident of Folsom Is Terrorizing the Ranchers. MADERA, Carn., April 20.—Samuel Prewett from Bates to-dsy brought to Sheriff Westfall a note from a man named Allison requesting that he come immedi- ately to Bates for the purpose of arresting a man who had robbed him of a gold watch and chain valued at $21Cand alot of money he had on his person. He gave a slight description of the individual, which corre- sponds in size and appearance to William Liverone, who has just been released from Kolsom on a two-year term for grand lar- ceny and is somewhere in the vicinity of the mountains. There was an attempt last week to_rob two farmers who were riding along in a wagon, but the shots fired by the robbers scared the horses into a_run and the men escaped unharmed., This attempt was kept quiet by the officers in order that they might ascertain who was committing the depredations, as Clif Regan and his followers are again in the eastern portion of the county and the officers entertain hope of capturing them before they escape. The officers left immediately for the scene of the robbery and the work of tracking the law-breakers will begin in the morn- ing. e Zos Angeles Orange Output. LO> ANGELES, Car., April 29.—Not fewer than 5500 carloads of oranges have been shipped out of Southern California this season, and the prices realized were equally as good as last year, if not a trifle better. Very little of the crop remains, Orange-tree planting has been going for- ward this spring afi over Soatheru Cali- fornia, and especially in Riverside and San Bernardino counties. ARRAIGNED AT VISALIA, The Examination of Lovren and Ardell Begun in the Jus- tices’ Court. Obie Britt Repeats His Confession Re. lating to the Goshen Train Robbery. VISALIA, CaL., April 20.—8i Lovren and Charles Ardeil, accused of complicity in the attempted Southern Pacific train robbery near Goshen last month, which resulted in the killing of Outlaw Dan Mec- Call, were arraigned to-day before Justice Holden. Deputy Sheriff G. V. Reed was the first witness. He detailed the circumstances of the attempt made by McCall on the night of the 18th of March to board the Southern Pacific train near Goshen and his subse- quent death. Counsel for the defense asked Reed no questions. Obie Britt followed and repeated his former confession, except that nothing re- lating to Lovren and Ardell was said. Counsel for tve prosecution were very careful to prevent mention of the prison- ers’ names. James L. Pattee, a violin-player, testified that Lovren on the morning of March 18 gave him 25 cents with which to buy red gauze, wanted to put around two lanterns for red lights. Not finding the cloth at a store, he returned the money to Lovren. The latter went out, returning in twenty minutes with a bundle. Abont that time McCall came in and took off his overcoat. McCaii, Ross and Lovren then examined their rifles. McCali, after sighting a rifie, seemed well pleased with it. The prosecution is proceeding cau- tiously. The case went over until to- morrov., —_— W. ¢. T. U. CONVENTION. Redding, Shasta, Anderson, Cottonwood aud Happy Valley Represented.

U. work 1s growing, and a re- newed interest is being taken in the tem- perance cause, The appointment of temporary officers vas followed by numerous short addresses, which took up the entire forenoon. The main feature of the afternoon was the stir- ring address of the county president, which was well received and listened to atten- tively. Vocal and instrumental music was interspersed, and some rousing temper- ance songs were sung. At the evening session Miss Develling addressed a large and_appreciative au- dience. A splendid recitation was deliv- ered by Miss Gertrnde White, after which addresses of welcome were delivered by Mrs. N. A. Johnson, Rev. Mr. Hargrove and Nathan White.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wasm., April 20.— News was received last evening of the loss of two hunters’ boats, with six men, ve- longing to the Indian sealing schooner Deahks Monday off Cape Flattery. Four other boats retnrned in the evening with big hauls, but a diligent search for the missing boats ended in failure, and it is almost certain that all of the Indian hunt- ers who went out in the boats have been drowned. P Zos Angeles Oil Shipments. LOS ANGELES, CaL., April 20.—The oil bark Enoch Talbot set sail this morning from Redondo for San Francisco with a cargo of 8000 barrels, consigned to the Arctic Oil Works.

CARSON'S MINT SCANDAL GROWS, Heney, the Convicted Bul- lion Thief, Confesses in Prison. TREACHERY IS REPAID. Induced to Talk After He Had Been Sacrificed by His Accomplices. GREATER THEFTS EXPOSED. He Implicates a Promirent Man Who Had Not Been Suspectd Heretofore. CARSON, NEv., April 20.—It is now generally understood that James Heney, the convicted bullion thief, has told every- thing he knows about the Mint shortage. While the Government officials and attor- neys decline to talk on the subject a CALL correspondent is able to state positively that Heney made a full confession in the presence of witnesses and the Govern- ment officials have it in black and white. This document contains some very start- ling accusations in connection with the Mint cases and involves bigger game than Jones. It is doubtful, however, that the Government will put Heney on the stand, asits counsel feels confident of winning the case without his testimony. Heney’s wife has been instrumental in inducing her husband to talk. She real- ized that he had been sold out and sac- rificed in the interest of his accomplices, and openly threatened to tell everything she knew if her husband did not talk. Inspector Mason gave the first hint of the coming storm by saying to-day that Jones had a confederate in the mint. He had learned this by a conversation with Heney 1 the prison. Woodburn, cunsel for the defense, attempted to draw out more from this intimation, but Clark, for the Government, arose and warned him that if be called for information he would get all of it and no more questions were asked. It has developed that six additional bogus melts were made in the cupel-room, and it is supposed that Heney gave the Government the tip how to secure the evi- dence. Mason had already found the alter- ations in the books, and the new evidence tends to show that suspect Jones used the same melts to serve a double purpose and they were worked in twice in the books. Mason declines to say who the confederate of Heney was, but says he has not pre- viously been even suspected. THE HEWS OF SAR J5E Judgment Filed Against Edward Piercy on a Typewriter’s Claim. Ex-Supervisor Tillotson, a Pioneer of Californ‘a, Crosses the Great Divide. SAN JOSE, CaL., April 20.—G. A. White- hurst was given judgment for $180 against Edward M. Piercy, the capitalist, on an assigned claim from Miss Clara M. Coth- ran, a typewriter, in Justice Dwyer’s court to-day. Piercy employed Miss Cothran to tran- scribe the testimony in the $50,000 breach of promise suit brought against him by Miss Jessie Pyle, and in which the plaintiff was awarded $12,000 damages. The testimony made 1200 pages and when Miss Cothran presented a bill ot $210 for making three copies of the testimony, Piercy was dum- founded. He refused to pay the bill and Miss Cothran assigned her claim to White- hurst, who sued for the full amount. Piefcy testified this morning that he thought $25 sufficient pay for transeribing 1200 pages of testimony and making three copies of it. ——— 84N JUSE’S CORONATION.

Much Enthusiasm as Well as Regret and Sympathy Manifested by the Salvationists. Metropolitan Temple rang and echoed with Salvation Army halleluiahs last night, and again the large hall was thronged with earnest soldiers of salva- tion. This second meeting of welcome to Consul Emma Booth-Tucker was inspir- ing, but the object of the inspiration was absent, suffering on a bed of sickness. Presiding officer Brigadier Keppel said that since Mrs. Booth-Tucker's appearance | on the platform Tuesday night she had been in great pain, but hoped to be able to be present at the auxiliary meeting in the temple, which takes place this afternoon at 3 o'clock. The meeting was ovened by the song, “I have read of men of fate,”” and a prayer was offered by Mrs. Keppel: *We pray that thou may lay thy tender, lov- ing hand upon our beloved consul to- nifiht and comfort her and make her well.” As the clear voice of the one praying: touched the hearts of those listening, a wave of andible supplication passed across the hall, out of which rose the *Hear, O Lord,” and “amens” of the sincere suppli- | ants. The hymn “Calvary’”’ was sune and | Major Milan offered a prayer. ‘‘Because we are deprived of our consul,” said Brigadier Keppel, *‘we must fall back | on her hallelujah escorts, Major Lewis and | Major Malan. Captain Bernard will sing the consul herself —a song that will make the devil hum.” And in his pleasant barytone Captain Bernard sang “I Am Climbing Up the Golden Stairs to Glory.” Major Lewis began her remarks by tell- | ing the story of a descent she once made into a coal mine. She graphicaily pictured | the daugers of entering such places, andi compared the mission of the Salvation | Army to that of the coal-miner who goes | down into the depths that he may bring | forth the shining and valuable mineral. “We go down, not to get inanimate bits of coal,” said she, “but glorious shining souls.” She spoke of the great good the army was doing in all parts of the world, lift- ing up a class of mankind that had never been up before. At the conclusion of the meeting Major Malan sang, accompanied by Major Lewis. He is noted for his interjections while singing, and bore out his reputation in the song last night. The entire audience soon caught the air and joined in the chorus, i Brigadier Keppel announced that for the meeting to-night an admittance of 10 cents would have to be asked to pay the expenses of the hall. —————— ZLuck of a Spokane FProspector. SPOKANE, Wasn, April 29.—Martin Neilly, a poor prospector, found a fortune yesterday while passing along the foot of Lookout Mountain, on the Columbia River. He discovered a huge bowlder of ore weighing fully sixty thousand tons, from which assays were made to-day run- ning as high as $63 to the ton in, gold. The bowlder is evidently a slide from the mountain. Neilly is wild with joy over his good Iuck. NEW TO-DAY. Where is the woman who does not like to lclfivle)bl';er b;by fat and u and cunning?
