8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, MAY 6, 1896. WTHE CASSOCK IN THE CAPITOL" Father Yorke's Oration at the Metropolitan Temple. HIS GREAT AUDIENCE. Standing Room Could Hardly Be| Obtained in the Big Structure. | THE STORY CF MARQUETTE. Arguments Eloquently Woven About“ the Life of the French Explorer. | | Rev. Peter C. Yorke, the famous cham- pion of the Catholic people in the recent religious controversy, lectured to a great audience last night at Metropolitan Temple. The meeting was under the auspices of the Catholic Ladies’ Aid | Society. Not only was every seat occu- pied, but scores of men stood at the rear | of the hall. There was an actual crush for admission until nearly half an hour after the time for the beginning of the lecture. Several members of the clergy and many prominent Catholic citizens occupied seats on the stage. The stage was profusely decorated with flags and with palms and | flowers. An immense flag adorned the front of the organ, and therein red flow- ers and ferns were the initials, “C. L. | A. 8.,” representing the Catholic Ladies’ | Aid Society. John Lynch, president of the Young Men’s Institute, presided at the meeting. Assuming his duties, he said: ‘‘About ten years ago in the city of my | childhood and my present home, the city | of sturdy oaks and of learning, my beloved | Oakland, looking across the water to the great, wicked city which she hopes some day to redeem—in that city was launched the organization under whose auspices we meet here to-night, +‘Under the direction of good Father King were many great works begun and carried out, but one of the greatest and noblest organizations that have come un- der his care is the Catholic Ladies’ Aia BSociety. This society should have in its rauks all the people in the vicinity of every branch of llweilger as active or contrib- uting members.” Continuing, the speaker said that there is connected with thissociety as a summer resort, Del Mar, located near Santa Cruz. | There the society has a hotel that is open | ull the year around. The duty of showing interest in Del Mar and supporting the | summer school was dwelt upon. Then Mr. | Lynch announced the opening musical selection, an organ performance by Pro- fessor R. J. Harrison. Mr. Lynch then spoke of the lecturer of | the evening, Kev. Peter C. Yorke, as a | wriest who needed no introduction to the | cople of San Francisco or of California. | Traveling in the East not long ago, the | presidingofficer had heard Father Yorke'’s | name mentioned and applauded as far | away as Denver, where the name seemed | to be almost as familiar as it is here. The introduction of “‘your own Father Yorke’ was received with long and loud applause. Father Yorke began as follows: “Ladies and gentlemen: I am under the impression that the president of the evening, Mr. Lvnch, has stored up all this soft soap for fear that I might be temvted | 1o make my remarks about Oakland. | Now, as open confession is good for the soul, I will admit that when I neard him | speak of Oakland, seated in her mud flats, | with her arms stretched out, beseeching | San Francisco to mend her ways, I was tempted to say that ‘charity begins at home.” But when I learned from Mr. Lynch that Oakland was the pirthplace of * the Ladies’ Aid Society, I concluaed to say noxhgng, for ‘charity covers a multitude of sins.” ¥ | to Oakland and Mr. | { The allusions Lynch’s praise of it caused laughter that | ket rolling all over the big audience. | Father Yorke announced the subiect of | his lecture as ** The Cassock in the Capitol, | or Father Marquette.” He paid an elo- | quent tribute to the explorer priest of the early American days, and then he praised | the United States as a place where all creeds had equal rights. He spoke of the Wisconsin statue of Marquette, declaring that when the project was first taken up there was opposition to it in secret lodges throughout the country, when it was pre- dicted that the statue would some aay break open and that the Pope would step out clad in full armor. The lower house of Congress was in- duced by the clamor of the noisy few to re- ject the Wisconsin giit to the Nation, but, thank God! there was another honse in Cougress—a branch not made up out of Catholics, but of Protestants—and that house placed the matble statue in the old House of Representatives. “‘Let us not be deceived by clamor. When you go out to the ocean you hardly know at first whether the tide ebbs or flows. The waves break noisily. Now they seem to be going une way and now the other. But wait_a little while and you will see that the tide is steadily flowine or steadily ebbing. And so it isin the tide of men. We are contident that in this country the flowing tide is always with those who have the coustitution on their side. “Perhaps much of the obposition to the statue of Marquette was due to the fact that Marquette was a Jesuit.” The Jesuits were made the subject of a portion of the lecture, Father Yorke speak- ing of the organization and the objects of the order. e said the people who shouted about the Jesuits so much did not seem to | have any idea of what the Jesuits are, They had even mistaken him for a Jesnit. The fundamental principle of the order ‘was to promote education and the Catholic religion. He eunlogized the great men of the Jesmit order, and amonz the mstances of the good done by the order he called at- tention to the fact that quinine, used by everybody without regaid to religious | * prejudices, was first known as “the Jes- uits’ bark.” The lecturer toid of the persecution of | the Jesuits by the nations of Europe. It was supposed that the order had been de- stroyed, but that was not the truth. “Nothing good ever dies,” and to-day the Jesuits have no greater glory in their | crown than the aspersion of the black- guards who vilify their name. Marquette's journeying in America, fa- | miliar to everybody, was then reviewed. | Having occasion to quote from Historian Bancroft, the lecturer saa: *Not tiat miserable apology for a historian who is known as the Bancroft of San Francisco, who has piled_up book after book without any history. I mean George Bancroft the historian, the great Bancroft.”” An elcv)tiuem. glowing tribute to the work of Marquette was given. Then the priest said that one reason offered for the rejection of the Marquette statue in the House of Representaiives was the costume in which the expiorer was represented as wearing. ““They didn’t put Marquette in a bicycle suit. The sculptor had the good sense to clothe the priest in the costume\ which vriests were supposed to have worn in Marquette’s time. And so, when the offer of the statue was made to Congress by Wisconsin, it was declared that no re- ligious garb, no secular emblem, should have a place in the Capitol. “But before they shut out the religious emblems they will have to shut out the memories of the discovery and the settle- ment of America. They cannot blot away the records of tbe inspirations which led to the expioration by Columbus, which brought the Puritans to New England and the Catholics to Maryland. “We do not want to smuggle the cas- sock or any other emblem into the Capitol or elsewhere by fraud. But we are citizens, and if a man earnsa rignt toa place in the Nation’s forum, the fact that he wears a cassock should not pe per- mitted to shut him out. “‘This country is too big to be squeezed down into the narrow limits of sectarian- ism. “Ido not think that this explosion of bigotry against the statue of Marquette represents the sentiments of even a small minority. This agitation will pass quickly away. Several such spasms of bigotr bave passed over the country, and so will this. The fame of Marqueite shall in- cresse and grow more lustrous with the passing of the years.” Father Yorke's Next Lecture. The fourth lecture of the course, “The Day-spring on High,” under the auspices ofthe American Women'’s Libera! League, will be given by Rev. Father Yorke on Friday evening, May 8, at Metropolitan Temple. Tickets and reserved seats can be purchased at the headquarters of the learue, room 6, Donohoe building, corner of Taylor and Market. LIBEL VESSEL AND CARGO Captain and Crew of the Schooner Moonlight Seek to Recover Thelir Wages. Two suits were filed in the United States District Court yesterday against the own- ers of the schooner Moonlight. In the first the crew-— Aleck Larsen, Antone Elene Martin and Sedon Martini—libel the vessel in the sum of $342 50, allegzed to be due them as wages. Captain S. F. Wick- berg -libels the cargo, claiming a balance due on sulary of $575. H. W. Brown and S. Bloom are attorneys for the complain- ants. The crew alleges in _the libel that they signed articles with Captain Wickberg for a voyage to certain Mexican ports and re- turn. When the schooner returned 10 San Francisco on April 30 the price agreed on per month was not forthcoming, hence the suit. Captain Wickberg in his com- plaint sets forth a similar state of affairs. UNPHID TALES DEWANDED Clunie’s Suit Argued Before the Supreme Court Yes- terday. An Action to Compel the AssseSorgto Do His Duty by the Market. Strcet Company. The application of Andy Clunie for a writ of mandate to compel the Assessor to reassess the property of the Market-street Railway Company was on hearing in the Supreme Court yesterday morning. Clunierepresented himself; Friedenrich, of Napthaly, Friedenrich & Ackerman, rep- resented the Assessor, and Foshay Walker represented the railway company. The hearing was upon a demurrer to the petition interposed by Friedenrich. In his application for a writ Clunie set forth that last year, 1895, the property of the Market- street Railway Company was assessed for $3,000,000. This same company has issued bonds, secured by its stock, to the amount of $17,500,000, and it has a capital stock of nearly $9,000,000. Becauseof misrepresen- tations, said the petitioner, the assessment had been putdown to $3,000,000, and the Assessor accepted it as such. Mr. ¥riedenrich opened the argument. His point was that the decision of the Board of Equalization iz final, and no mat- ter how unjust, it cannot be reviewed b; the courts. To hold ctherwise, he said, would be to make of every court in the State a board of equalization to pass upon all assessments, He said if the Assessor or the members of the Board of Equaliza- tion had not done their duty, the remedy was to remoye them. Mr. Clunie relied principally upon a former decision of the Supreme Court, in which the law is quoted as directing that any property escaping assessment in one year shall be assessed the next year at ten times its_value. He contended that the law required every man to bear equally the burden of taxation, and his assess- ment should be bused upon the full cash value of the property assessed. In the case of the Market-street Railway Com- pany this had not been done, he said ; in- stead of bearing a burden of $17,500,000, the actual value of the B%garty, the com- pany paid only on $3,000,000. The result of this assessment, and the result of this false valuation, Clunie con- tiuued, has been to increase directly the burden of taxation upon everyone in San Francisco, and so it cannot bea valid as- sessment. Judge Garoutte then asked if Mr. Clunie would attack the assessment if the Board of Equalization had passed upon it and raised it to $5,000,000. Mr. Clunie said that if such had been the fact he coula at- tack it anywhere when it appeared that roperty admittedly worth $18,000,000 had {:een assessed at $5,000,000. The court was principally interested in the powers and jurisdiction of the Board of Equalization. It took the position that the decision of the Board of Equalization was final. Mr. Clunie thought not. He contended that the Legislature had di- rected that ail property assessed at its fuil cash value. It had provided the Board of Equalization as a means of arriv- ing at the value of property, but ir: giving the power to regulate assessments it lim- ited that power by directing that all pro erty be assessed at its full value. Shouls: therefore, property be assessed below its value, Mr. Clunie contended he he could Teview the proceedings in the Supreme Court or in any court. Mr. Clunie then took u the question of | ““abuse of discretion” in the case of the As- sessor. He claimed that when an Assessor g0es out to assess property he is not merely Lo put any value onit; he must assessit at its full cash value, and when he does not do so he is avusine his discretion and mandamus is a proper remedy in the case. In conclusion Mr. Clunie said that it rested with the court to determine whether or not there had been a valid assessment last year, and whether or not the Dproperty was assessed at its actual value. Ii evil had Leen committed the court could then di- rect the Assessor to remedy the evil. If his position should be upheld, Mr. Clunie said, it would mean the payment of $300,- 000 to the property of the State which had not been paid. 3 In closin; Mr. Friedenrich argued that Mr. Clunie’s position—that the court could inquire into the action of the Assessor and the validity of the assessment—would be to make the court a board of equalization to inquire into every assessment in the State. Further, Mr. Friedenrich claimed that the property had not escaped assessment, The question was whether or not the as- sessment was of full value, and that, Mr. Freidenrich claimed, was for the Board of Equalization to determine. If the Assessor bad done wrong there was a proper remedy in the case. In closing all argument Clunie said he would be satisfied whichever way the court decided. His object was to tind out definitely who was responsible for these false assessments. He said afterward that if the writ be denied, thereby throwing all responsibility on the Assessor and the Board of Equalization, then he will g0 after the Assessor, SHIELDS GO OFF CHEAP, Fined $100 for Being Left at the Post With George Miller. LONG SHOTS HELD FULL SWAY' Afflatus at 40 to 1 a Winner—Belli- coso and Instiga or at Long 0dds Won Handily. When Jockey Shields, astride the 214 to 1 favorite, George Miller, for the second race at Ingleside yesterday, managed to get left at the post, the talent scowled and & peal of thunder re-echoed through the sur- rounding hills. The lanky ‘‘barrier cham- pion” was fined $100 by the judges for the performance, and after one or two more such turns is more than liable to have the curtain rung down on his acts. The horse was very heavily backed, and the members of the booking fraternity were all busily engaged salting down hard coin at the conclusion of the race. But this was not the only ‘‘butchery,” and the bereft talent was truly in need of assistance and condolence at the conclu- sion of the racing. The wind, in reality a perfect gale, fairly screeched and howled as it blew over the course, raising clouds of dust. Whether or not to this stiff nor- wester could be laid the favorites’ down- fall is problematical; at any,_ rate, a soli- tary first choice in the beuin§ failed to score. Afflatus at 40 to 1and Instigator, szainst whom the books Jaid 20 to 1, were two of the startling surprises. The Lone stable’s Loyalist colt Dunboy was the post favorite at odds of 2)§tol “THE CALL” RACING CHART. p-:lfl: Coast Jockey Club’s Winter Meeting. day, May 5, 1896.

At the weights the Texan sprinter George Miiler's chances looked most rosy for the next event, a five and a half fur- long run, and he was heavily played at 2)¢ and 3. Opposed to him were some yery speedy ones, and William Pinkerton, imp. Banta Bella, Bellicoso and Babe Murphy, fancied in the order named, all received Bufport. At the post there was quite a delay, Beilicoso and the favorite both peing on their bad bebavior. When the barrier finally shot up in the air Miller wheeled and was left. William Pinkerton headed Bellicoso until well into the stretch, where the latter horse took the lead and at the wire beat Pinkerton a length. Santa Bella was a good third. Sam Hildreth’s big colt Fair Faith, who was beaten the day previous by Paros, was again made a hot choice for the mile and a sixteenth run and again finished ucondi Don Cesar, ridden by Coady, with odds of 6to1 about him, led from end to end, passing the wire half a length in advance of the favoritein 1:513¢. All Smoke fin- ished in the show. i A seven-furlong tour with four starters resulted in another victory for the splen- did filly Summer Time. The Corrigan entry, Mobalasca, had _the call at 6 to 5 going to the post, but Summer Time, start- ing second in demand in the betfing, made all of the running and reached the wire three lengths before the favorite. Rey del Bandidos came fast at the end, taking show honors. 2 For the fifth event, over six furlongs, Gallant was a pronounced 7 to 5 choice, but ran unplaced. Afflatus, a 40 to 1 shot, backed down to 20, led all the way, winning by two lengths from Red Pike, a 50 to 1 outsider. Scratching was numerous among the original fifteen entries for the last race, also at six furiongs, all but seven declining | the issue. Major Cook was the hottest | sort of a choice, played down from 6 to 5 to 7 to 10. He, too, had joined the great majority, for he failed to get a mark. In- stigator, at 20 to 1, passea Levena C, who had been cutting out the pace, in the stretch, and won easily by three lengths from the 2)4 to 1 second choice, Adolph Spreckels. TRACK AND PADDOCK ITEMS, This is “ladies’ day” at Ingleside. The great match race for a stake of $3000 be- tween W. O'B Macdonough’s Orestes, the prized two-year-old son of Ormonde, and Walter Hobart’s slashing Salvator colt San Mateo, is the special feature of tne great card. Nomatch in years has aroused | such general interest as this, and the man- agement look for one of the largest crowds of the season. Ormonde, “the horse of the century,” was Enzland’s greatest race- horse, and landed in California cost Mr. Macdonough $150,000. Salvator, practi- cally unbeatable in his day, was the idol of the American turf, so that the match partakes of an international character. Willie Flynn appeared to have such hard luck on horses that received any sort of substantial backing that when he was left at the post in the two-year-old race with Hohenzollern, the judges concluaed to suspend him indefinitely. Coady was substituted in place of Flynn on Don Cesar, and rode a well-judged | race. Fair Faith, who finished second, | appears to be unfortunate, tor he was un- doubtedly the best horse in the race. Tom Hurlick, who has not been seen on the block for some time, has been laying odds the past week at Ingleside, and has received gig play. Hurlick’s book is not surrounded by owners, trainers, ‘“mack- erel-dealers,” etc., but he attends strictly to legitimate booking and lays top prices. MMOIG THE WHEELMEY, The California Cyclers’ Election. Kiser and Randall to Race in Europe. Entries and Handicaps for the Races at Healdsburg To-Morrow and Friday. At its regular weekly meeting last Mon- day evening the California Cycling Club elected the following officers: C. Miche- ner, president; R. M. Duncan, vice-presi- dent; Thomas Wall, recording secretary; W. 0. Johnson, financial secretary; F. N, Nason, treasurer; A. W. Green, sergeant- at-arms ; F. G. Bent, E. Wilberg and R. S. Allen, house committee. The road offi- cers remain in office six months longer than the club officers, consequently no change in that regard was made. Charies 8. Wells and W. A. Terrill, ac- companied by Trainer Rhys of the Bay City Wheelmen, went to San Jose yester- day to train on the track there for the races Saturday. The Stearns team are also there, with the exception of Earl H. Kiser, W. M. Randall and H. B. Gleezen, who will not follow the National racing circuit this year but went East last night to make arrangements for their departure for Kurope early next month. eezen, who will manage the other two, thinks that these men will stand a splendid chance against the foreign riders and the Americans now there, and as the prizes are more valuable he thinks that as pro- fessionals they will do better than by fol- lowing the American circuit. There will be cycle racing at Healdsburg on Thursday and Friday of this week, in conjunction with the flower festival there, There is only one amateur handica; event, the handicaps for which have been ar- ranged by R. A. Smyth as foliows; One mile hnndmw, amateur—First heat: W. Tantau, O. C. W,, scrateh ; H. Noonan, S, W., 25 yards; E. Deventhal, H. W., 55; ; C. Steward, 8. R. W. % nd 'E. R.

Ackerman, Petaluma Wheelmen; . . Lowry, Harve Fuller and B. H. Barnes, Heal burg Wheelmen, Some surprise has been expressed be- cause th2 entries and handicaps for the National circuit races to be held at San Jose next Saturday under the auspices of the Garden City Cyclers have not yet been ublished, although the entries closed last turday night. It seems tbat by some error entry blanks were notsent to the Acme, Reliance or City clubs—at least they did not receive any.
