8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 17, 1896, SIME POLITCAL X BAYS The Veil of Flesh Torn From the Souls of Statesmen Assembled at Sac- ramento. By ths DGE. Having recently made experiments with X-ray pictures I have discovered that polit- aily it is possible to secure pictures of thought, aims, character and aspirations of practical politicians, and I will give you to-day | an explanation of a few negatives of people prominently identified with the Democratic | State Convention at Sacramento. I am com- pelled by circumstances to confine the pictures given to-day to one side of the question, for the reason that notwithstanding I had my camera-plates copper-bound and riveted twen- ty-seven of the plates exploded on sccount of the tough character of the subjects. The country delegates are up againsta hard mob if these pictures are true. There is a fine mixture here of discordant elements, all | actusted by a desire to secure positions. We have in evidence the Federal brigade, Budd’s relations, Colnon’s Stockton push, Buckley’s business men, Daggett’s gold men, Foote's pets and the Junta crowd, principally composed of people who in the past were beg- gars at Buckley’s table, and who are now try- ing to smash the hand that fed tnem. There | will be served up by the committee on plat- form and resolutions s tough a dose of De- | mocracy as can be imagined, which will be swallowed by the patriots assembled without a grimace. The mixture will contain a little of | Cleveland, a small part of Budd, a portion of | White, a slice of Maguire, a big heap of silver, the appointmentwas made. The result of the trip was that Buckley went to Sacramento, Moreland was turned down, Uncle George ap- pointed and the Examiner was not a fighter of Buckley. The friendly relations existing between the Examiner and Buckley continued until 1890, when that paper wanted to down Bteve White at San Jose, it was said on account of his Irish entecedents. You will remember that the Examiner was hissed by the delegates to that convention. White was indorsed; the Examiner slipped & cog and became a re- former, and has been a reformer ever since, gathering around it a choice collection of other reformers. Here are some of their pictures: Gavin McNab—“Whispering” Gavin they call him now. You remember when Buckley gave Gavin that nomination for Supervisor in 1890 as & reward for service? Weli, Buckley had to take him from the ticket because the Federated Trades bucked. Gavin has had & rocky road to travel in his career asa reformer. When Buckley took his famous trip to the watering places of Kurope, *“Whispering” Gavin joined the reorganizers under Sullivan and Dwyer, from which crowd he was expelled for knifing the ticket. It is supposed that Gavin has A. P. A. sympathies. Ssmmy Braunhart, another reformer, was one of Buckley’s loudest bleating lambs in the old time. He was Buckley's candidate for the Legislature in 1888. Sammy used to try to work off some of those famous Regalia de Chinatown cigars on Buckley in order to solid- ify himself with the boss, but as Buckley was preity cunning himself and is not taking any chances on his life, he thought he would work off the cigars on the push. 1twas lucky for Buckley that he took that course, as many of the push nearly succumbed to yellow jaundice from smoking Sammy’s Regalias. It is also said that some of Buckley’s friends about this time presented him with an elegant pair of horses and a rockaway, but overlooked the buggy robe. Sammy saw his opportunity, rushed to & hand-me-down shop south of Market street, purchased the gaudiest red buggy robe he could find, and gave it to Mr. arapatthe A. P. A., the ignoring of female suffrage, a smash at the Sunday law, and the Buckley with his compliments. The first time Buckley drove out he used the robe; a shower FOR PRACTICAL CLINICAL WORK. A New Medical College Soon to Be Estab- lished. PLANS OF ITS PROMOTERS To Locate Where Abundant Material for Clinics Is Attainable. PROBABLY SOUTH OF MARKET. Subsequently a Suitable College Build- ing May Be Built on Rincon Hill. San Francisco is soon to have another medical college in addition to the two ex- isting schools. Although many believe that for a city of its size it is pretty well HERE’S. HEALTH AND LONG LIFE TO - BUGKLEY, y [“ ll: /I;//.'/lh’l‘/'v whole seasoned with 8. other drugs. Our first picture shows the turning down of John T. Gaffey by the short-haired Los Angeles | push, headed by Ramish, Marsh, McCaffery | and the rest of the boys. These boys have | been up against Gaffey's game ir the past, and | as their legs are getting back to their original | length they don’t propose to give Gaffey a | chence to pull them again. John is & past | master in the science of leg-pulling, as the A. P. A.’s can testify, for John gave it to them when Buckley gave him the nomination for | the State Board of Equalization. You will re- | member that John made his campaign from Black Ryan's office, had the indorsement of | the long-haired A. P. A. push and the en- | thusiastic support of Marsh, McCaffery & Co. | John is a daisy, win or lose. Lock at his graft | this trip. Did he not take Buckfey to & Spanish | dinner at Los Angeles? | Did he not lunch bim recently in 8an Fran- | cisco and then did he hot work every end of the Junta as well as the Junta organ? Gaffey is & great distributor of funny stories and | promises, but history says that no sack es- | capes his watchful eye, and the beauty of itall | is that he holds onto it when he gets it. Itisa | well-known fact that proposed victims of Johnnie’s leg-pulling operations can feel a pain in the limb (weniy-four hours before John arrives. Of course Idon’t think John holds out all the dough, but as it looks as if John would have to crawl under the canvas if he wants to see the show, it would seem that the short hairs of Los Apgeles had been pun- ishing him. Speaking of Buckley and Gaffey, did you ever stop to consider the iact that nearly the whole outfit who are now fighting Buckley were recipients of Buckley’s favors in the past? Just look ata few of these negatives and you will be surprised. The one 1am going to show you now isa picture of that great reform- paper, the Exam- iner. Itis inclass A nowas a reformer. I/ have not time to take up the entire picture, but here is part of it. You remember old Un- cle George Hearst, & good-hearted Californian and a successful miner. Well, Uncle George one day thought he would like to be Governor ! of California and thus round upa successful life. Buckley was sent for and arrangements were made to organize Dem ocratic clubs in San Francisco. As Uncle George got his money out of the ground and was willing to pay for the proposed honor everything was done in first-class style. Buckley won the delegates and voted them for five whole days at the San Jose convention. At last the delegates tired of the Examiner's persistency and the entire country crowd centered on General Stonemen, who was nom- inated and elected. After a careful examina- tion of this picture we fail to find where the Examiner expresses any dissatisfaction with Buckley’s methods during that campaign. During Stoneman’s administration United States Senator Miller died and the Governor made up his mind to appoint his executive secretary, ex-Senator Moreland of Solano, to fill the vacancy. However, it was rumored that Buckley was seen coming from the South- P. R. R. sauce and ern Pacific Railroad offices, then located at Fourth and Townsend streets, the day betore of rain came up, the dye ran out, and Sammy’s & reformer now. Max Popper is to-day Buckley’s part- ner in the ownership of the street- sweep- ing machinery leased to McDonald & Co., the profits of which are divided every month at Kelly’s office in the Nevada block. Billy Har- rison, Buckley’s secretary, collecting Buckley’s ehare, is another of the grateful crowd who are fighting the old leader. You remember when Billy Gavigan discovered the Custom-house draying snap Max took Buckley, Gavigan and Whitney in with him and gobbled the con- tract. Pretty soon, however, he dumped Gavi- gan and Whitney, but kept Buckley in the firm, and as Max has never given Buckley an accounting it looks as if in that affair also Max is still with Buck. Sam Rainey, who to-day is called the Tele- phone Boss, because he does not show up, but from his room issues instructions to the Junta and the Fire Department through the tele- phone, is another of Buckley’s old crowd. In 1882, when Buck took Sam into camp, he "cre- ated the position of guardian angel of the Fire Department for Sam, which position he has held ever since. Sam, however, is ambitious, and 1s now reaching out for complete control. It is said that he is a silent partner of Kelly and Mahoney. Ned Lanigan, who is & protege of Sam Ralney, is another old-time follower of Buck- ley. Ned, however, isa pretty decent fellow, and while circumstances compel him' to follow Rainey, he does not like it and dunng the last campaign was in daily consultation with Buckley, and to Ned is coming a great deal of credit for the defeat of Haley as County Clerk. Ned is well liked in the Forty-first District and takes splendid care of his followers, all of ‘who; re working that desire to. Chi Reiss was Buckley’s candidate for ‘Treasurer in 1886. George T.Marye, the sage- brush politician, now known as “Sweet Marie,” who was Buckley’s chairman of the County Committee in 1882, was always friendly until Buckley refused to give him the nomination for Congress. M. C. Hassett in the old time used to wati for the Buckley political lightning to strike him with & nomination for &ny judicial posi- tion. Hassett staid with Buckley until the last campaign, during which he frequently visited the Livermore ranch to advance the in- terests of Registrar Hinton, who was trying to get Buckleg’! indorsement for Public Adminis- trator, with Hassett for his attorney. Of course you remember Buckley’s Super- visor, John Foley, who afterward was Buck- ley’s Superintendent of the House of Corrce- tion at & time when the lambs were entitled to good care in that institution. It was cheaper to keep them there on good grub than filled with steam beer in the City. Well, as Buck has at present nothing to give Foley, his gratitude is compelling him to gght Buck' for past favors. Dr. Gavigan, who formerly held office under Buck, is now making & fight for Superintend- ent of the Dipsomaniac Home under Junta auspices, while J. J. Cunningham, the former erraud-poy and amenuensis of Buck, is making a Poll Parrot repetition of political secrets coming into his possession at that time. He may get a janitorship if the Junta wins. Ex-Senators Tom ~Pindar, Williams, Jack Welch and J. J. Sullivan have also joined the great band of reformers since Buckley has nothing more to give them. THE JUDGE. /w//// h off in regard to medical colleges, and that there are too many already in the country, & number of prominent physicians of this City believe that there is open to the new organization a field that has been neg- lected by the old colleges. Accordingly application has been filed for articles of incorporation of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of San Kran- cisco, by the following members of the local medical fraternity: Dr. Silas Mercer Mouser, Dr. Joseph Lane, Dr. Winslow Anderson, Dr. Samuel O. L. Potter and Dr. William Freeman South- ard. The feeling among some of the men who are supporting the new organization is that the two old colleges have to a great extent outlived their usefulness. Many of the professors, it is said, neg- lect their work of teaching for their own professional cases, and the students are either neglected or left in charge of some voung and inexperienced substitute. “‘There are several reasons why a new college should be established in this City,” said Dr. Potter last evening. ‘‘The plac- ing of one of the now existing colleges away out south of the park is going to de- tract greatly from its efficiency. Students | will be unable to find boarding-places in HERE TO that neighborhood and professors cannot afford to waste their time in driving back and forth such a distance. “Neither will a sick man travel outso far, and the result will be that the clinics at the college will amount to very little. ““The Cooper College has also many dis- advantages. Itis situated in a residence portion of the City where there are few poor patients. The clinics are composed as a rule of well-to-do people, because the college can get no others to work upon. The hospital which is managed in con- nection with the school isa pay bospital, where the charges range from $3to §10 a day. Of course, people who can pay such 8 price are not going to allow -themselves to be operated upon by young medical stu- dents. “There is, therefore, no clinical school here where the student is brought into actual contact with all kinds of disease. The Polyclinic has given up nearly all teaching and is essentially a dispensary. ““Of course, we will meet with many ob- jections. The supporters of the old col- leges will declare we area lot of green- horns and upstarts. As a matter of fact, the physicians in the mew enterprise are all experienced physicians—some of them standing at the head of the special branches of medicine which they follow. “‘After we have incorporated we shall at first rent some building for our college, probably south of Market street, where our clinics shall be composed of the poor and shall be entirely free. Wa also expect later to obtain financial aid from certain gentlemen to erect a fine building for the college. Each of the incorporators is as- sured of from five to seven students when- ever the colleze is opeued, 8o our prospects are encouraging. ““We also hope to establish a connection with the great Johnson Hospital, which is soon to be established here. Archbishop Rioraan, Drs. Buckley, Robinson and Thorne are the trustees of the hospital, and we hope by our good work to obtain the good will of these trusteesand bring about some connection between the col- lege and the hospital. X “My own idea of a permanent location for the college would be on Rincon Hill The argument used in favor of the site south of the park was that in 50 or 100 years it would be the center of the City. But a medical college is for the present and should be situated in a populous dis- trict. Rincon Hill possesses many advan- tages for a college site. The climate is very good, the cars are convenient for reaching the County Hospital and, be- sides, the new Johnson Hospital will probably be located in this vicinity. And in this locality there would be abundance of material for practical clinics, which we deem one of the most important ele- ments in an education for the medical profession.” UKIAH’S SEWERAGE SYSTEM. Ten Miles of Pipe to Be Laid for Very Little Money. UKIAH, Carn, June 16.—Bids for the construction of a sewerage system for this place was opened by the board of trustees to-day. Thirteen bids were received, rang- ing from $16,000 to $28,000. The lowest bid was that of F. Brunner & Son of Ukiah, who offered to do the work as per specifications for $15,900. The con- tract was awarded to this firm provided they file a bond for $10,000 within ten days. The figure at which the contract was let is considered exceedingly low. Twenty- five thousand dollars had been voted for this purpose. Work will be commenced atonce and is to be compleied in ninety days. Ten miies of pipe will be laid. e H e AN INSOLYENT BUICHER. George B. Dittus Succumbs to Bad Debts and Dull Times SAN JOSE, CaL., June 16.—Councilman George B. Dittus, who has been engaged in the butcher business in this city fora NEMOCRATIC HEAD number of years, tiled a petition in insolv- ency yesterday. His liabilities ‘aggregate $7824 59, to offset which are assets amount- ing to $2955. The failure is alleged to be the result of bad dcbts, decrease in busi- ness and a stringency in the moaey market. Sl T ¥. M. C. A. INDEBTEDNESS. Efforts Being Made to Prevent the Fore- closure of a Mortgage. SAN JOSE, CaL., June 16.—The execu- tive committee of the Young Men’s Christian Association are making every effort to raise the necessary funds to pay off $20,000 indebtedness standing against the association. At present there isa suit pending to foreclose a $15,000 mortgage on the associ- ation’s building on North Second street. On Wednesday, June 24, a systematic can- vass of the city will be made by some 300 canvassers. A{reld pearly of the necessary amount has been subscribed, and the committee feel confident that the full amount of the indebtedness will be raised. The deepest running stream in the world is said to be the Niagara River just under the suspension bridge. FEVERISHNESs of the scalp soon causes bald- ness.

Aspires to Become the Leader of the Unfrocked Pastor’s Followers. NEW MINISTER TO BE CALLED. The Trustees and Members of the First Church Determined to Again Open Its Doors. Deacon I. H. Morse has finally deter- mined to sever all connection with the First Congregational Church. At a meet- ing of the board of trustees and officers of the society called for to-morrow night Mr. Morse will tender his resignation, the same to take effect immediately. Along with the severance of his connec- tion with the twice-scandalized church, the senior deacon hurls a sort of defiance at his former associates by falling bodily into the camp of the unfrocked Brown. It has been well understood all along that Mr. Morse was hand ana glove with the ex-pastor of the First Church, but no one ever dreamed for a moment that his loyalty to the ‘man would cause him to sever his relations with the church. They looked for a long, hard battle for the prop- ercy of the society, but they never ex- pected Brown's chief lieutenant to fall down at the first defeat. Deacon Morse, however, goes further than a mere alliance with Brown. He proposes and has already organized in a way a church or following for his minis- terial friend. He intends to stick to it for all time to come, that is, as long as Brown is at the head. When that gentleman ceases to be the bright, particular star, then he will pin his faith to somg other denomination. ‘““There is no secret about this matter at all,’” said Deacon Morse last night. *‘So far as 1 am able to see, there is no possible way of barmonizing the First Church, and without this 1t could not be placed on a paying basis. Dr. Brown tried for sev- eral years to do it, but failed; though if he had been let alone in this last crisis I think he might possibly have pulled us through. “Iam with Dr. Brown first, last and al- ways, and propose to exercise my best efforts to keep afloat the organization started some weeks ago. There is no doubt of its success, however. Dr. Brown is one of the best drawing preachers in America to-day, though 1 do not want it understood that his hearers are largely transient. The new church at Go:den Gate Hall, for itis a chiurch and will always be so, is an ideal institution. and is bound to be popular as well as seli- supporting. Ouractual expenses are only $1800 per annum. This is for rent. The paster receives such a sum as the congre- gation is willing to give. The following circular issued June 1 will explain in a way how we expect to support the insti- tution: 8aN FrANCISCO, June 1, 1896. Itis proposed that regular preaching, Sun- day-school, Christian Endeavor and Wednes- day evening 'services be maintained in Golden Gate Hall, under the direction of Rev. Charles O. Brown, D.D. The success of the services which have heretofore been held under these auspices warrant us in the belief that a large and useful religious work can be done, and that the time and place is propitious. To thisend we invite monthly subscriptions for the support of this move- ment. Welook to & large number of small subscriptions rather than that the burden of support should be borne by a few large givers. In co-operation and mone- tary interest, however small, there is great strength and certain success. By signing the inclosed pledge and dropping the same upon the plate, you will indicate your interest and sympathy, and for convenience in collecting you will be furnished envelopes, properly num- bered, and your account will be credited with payments either weekly or monthly, as is found to be most convenient to the subscriber. Yours truly, D. W. FOLGER, Treasurer. P. 8.—Arrangements have already been made with James Hamilton Howe, and a choral choir will be organized at an early date, which we trust will be an important and pleasing auxiliary. “Dr. Brown expected to go East, but his | friends prevailed upon him to remain here. He has a grand field before him, and with no dissension among his follow- ers there is no reason why the Golden Gate Hall church, under his pastorate, should not prove a brilliant success. I think - I shall withdraw altogether trom Congregationalism, though I have not fully decided on this point as yet. There is no head to the church, and I am conse- quently disgusted with it.” In the meantime there is every prob- abilty that the old First Congregational Church will open its doors within the next four mopths. The abortive attempt of Deacon Morse, backed by Deacons Dexter and Vasconcellos, to sell the church over the heads of the congregation has aroused theire of the trustees and the members forming the backbone of the society. They are now casting about for a minis- ter who can bring the church together again. Now that Deacon Morse is out they anticipate no difficulty in accom- plishing this and ultimately placing the church on a firm paying basis. GROVER TALKS AGAINST SILVER. The President Thinks That Working for Gold Is Working for the Country’s Good, WASHINGION, D. C., June 16.—Presi- dent Cleveland to-day made the following reply to a representative of the New York Herald, who asked of the President a statement concerning the Democratic situ- ation: Mr. Cleveland said: ‘I have made no figures as to the probable action of del- egates already chosen, or to be chosen, to the Democratic National Convention, but I refuse to believe that when the time arrives for deliberate action there will be engrafted upon our Democratic creed a demand for the free, unlimited and inde- pendent coinage of silver. “I cannot believe this, because Iknoy the Democratic party is neither unpatri- otic nor foolish, and because it seems clear to me that such a course will inflict a very great injury upon every interest of our country which it has been the mission of Democracy to advance and will result in strong disaster toour party organization. There is great hope that asa means of suc- cess this free silver proposition, after its thorough discussion during a political campaign will attract a majority of the voters of the oountry. It must be that many of the illusions influencing those now relying upon this alleged panacea for their ills will be dispeiled before the time comes for them to cast their ballots, which will ex- press their sober second thought. The adoption by the Democracy of this propo- sition would, I belieye, give to our oppo- nents an advantage both in the present and future which they do not deserve. “My attachment to true Democracy is so strong that I consider its work as identical with the promotion of the country’s good. This ought sufficiently to account for my anxiety that no mistake be made at our party convention. In my opinion no effort should be spared to secure such ac- tion of the delegates as will avert party demoralization. “.It is a place for consultation and com- parison of views and those Democrats who believe in the cause of sound money should there be heard and be constantly in evidence. A cause worth fighting for is worth fighting for to the end. If sonnd money Democrats suppose there is danger of a mistake being made such danger _shpuld stimulate their activity in averting it instead of creating discouragement. “I am very far from arrogating to my- neIf' a controlling influence upon the policy of my party; but as an unflinching Democrat who has been honored by his party and who desires hereafter no greater political privilezes than to occupy the place of private in 1ts ranks, I hope I may not be blamed for saying thus much at this time in the interest, as it seems to me, of the grand old organization, so rich in honorable traditions, so justly proud of its achievements and always so undaunted and brave in its battles for the people’s welware,” —_— MAINE DEMOCRATS. The Third District Favors Gold, Silver and Poper Money. WATERVILLE, Mg, June 16.—The Democratic Third District Convention to- day nominated delegates to Chicago and Melvin O. Holway of Augusta was nomi- nated for Congress. The resolutions adopted favor the use of gold and silver as standard money and the coinage of both without discrimination. surrounded by such safeguards as shall insure a parity of the two metals, and that paper currrency shall be kept at par with such coinage. T DIAMUND THIEVES CAUGHT. Two Fxperts Arrested at the Planters’ Hotel, 5t. Louis. ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 16.—Dora Donegan and Jennie Monroe, said to be the most expert diamond thieves in the country, were arrested just as they were preparing to enter the Planters’ Hotel by detectives of Chicago and St. Louis. The women had thelr baggage with them and ap- parently intended to register. Dora Don- egan was convicted of stealing diamonds in Chicago and served a term in the Joliet Penitentiary. The police consider them two of the best captures made since the convention crowds began to gather. SLES S Portland Races.

GEHIND PRISON B, Startling Story of Conspiracy and Fraud. COUNTERFEITING MUNYON’S REMEDIES. Two Persons in Prison and More to Follow. The Wonderful Success of Mun- yon’s Improved Homceopathic Remedles Has Induced Unscru- pulous Persons to Flood the Mar- ket With Spurious Goods. San Francisco people will be glad to learn that a great fraud has been exposed, v that a con- spiracy to flood the market with cov aterfeit goods has been nipped in the bud. All will agree with Professor Munyon that there is no greater crime than palming off worthless medicines on the sick and that no yunishment is too-severe for imitators and counteriiters. 1t seems hordly credible that therd can be found persons 80 mean, so selfish, and so Neartless as to engage In & business to deceive and take advan- tage of suffering humanity, yet it is so, for no sooner Is a meritorious remedy fully established, the confidence of the people justly “on, than the country Is deluged with counterfeit and worthless imitations. Probably no concern ha4 had so many rascally imitators to contend with 85 the Munyon Homopathic Remedy Company. Owing to the wonderful success of these remedies, homo- pathic medicine companies have sprang up like mushrooms, under various names, each claiming t0 be better than the other. Some of these com- panies have deliberately copied the Munyon ad- vertisements, almost bodily, stealing whole pages from Munyon’s “Guide to Health,” with scarcely s change, while every cunning device has been adopted to mislead and deceive the public. For more than a year Professor Munyon has been satisfied that his goods were being juggled with In some fraudulent manner. Suspected em- ployes were discharged, and every measure taken to detect the culprits, but it was not until the Iast month that he was ableto !ay his hands upon the chief conspirators. He has now in prison one of his former employes and a confederate by the name 0t C. B. Ferron, allas C. H. Fanola. Ferron, it seems, has been working for more than a year in conjunction with dishonest employes of the Munyon Company. Goods, labels and material were surreptitiously taken from the Munyen Laboratory, pellets were bought by the barrel, & litsle alcohol was poured upon them and they were placed upon the market as the genuine Munyon Remedies. Fortunately the Munyon Company had taken precaution to have the metal cap which covers their vials stamped with the words “Mun- yon’s Homeeopathic Rermedles.” This the counter- Teiters could not imitate, ou account of the great expense and the unwillingness of honest me- chanics to make & counterfeit die. As 500n as the fraud was discovered the Munyon Company dis- patched representatives throughout the country and gathered in all the spurious goods, but Pro- fessor Munyon advises all persons who buy the remedies to see that the metal cap is marked «“Munyon's Homceopathic Remedies.” Ferron declared when arrested that he was led into this business by a “cutter” in the West, who could not buy Munyon's gocds direct and who gave him the money to buy $2000 worth of remedies, ostensi- bly to go to Mexico. Seeing how rapidly these goods sold, and finding some willing allies in the employes of the Munyon Company he embarked in the bogus busiuess. Tt seems that one dealer in New York alone had bought over $7000 of these imitation goods. Professor Muuyon promises to probe this matter to the bottom, and we sincerely hope that he will be able to bring all pariies con- cerned n this desplcable frand to justice. There is a drug firm in San Francisco putting ap a lini- ment claiming to be Manyon's, but which the Munyon Company has nothing to do with. All Munyon's goods bear a trademark. See that the name is spelled Munyon’s. / T IS THE WASTE THAT YOU MUST STOP, When you find your nerves becoming weaket and weaker day by day, when you find your jar- ring merves de mot respond to the exigencies of time or place, it is then time for you to use & remedy that will make you a really strong man.
