THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24, 1896. BELMONT WoN THE SUBURBAK. Henry of Navarre Was First in the Classic Event. THE COMMONER SECOND. ifford Was an Odds-on Favorite, but Could Only Finish Third. THE WESTERNER A SURPRISE. Griffin Rode a Good Race and Navarre Won Rather Easily at the End, SHEEPSHEAD BAY, N. Y., June 23.— Henry of Navarre demonstrated once more his right to the title, “King of the | thirteenth sub- | Turf,” by winning the urban handicap at Sheepshead Bay to- day. His victory was well earned, as he beat some of the best horses in training. The ty Clifford was among the vanquished to-day. Clifford was favorite. This was largelv due to the fact that Taral had the mount on him. Clifford was also favorite for the Brooklyn handicap, and was beaten by Sir Walter in a very close finish. Taral's superior jockeyship, every- one said, defeated Clifford then. Clayton, who rode him in the Brooklyn handicap, got the blame for Clifford’s failure to make lis run until too late. Taral was engaged to ride him in to-day’s great race, and every one said he would do better with a stronger jockey than Clayton on his back. Clifford, however, did not do as well for Taral as he did for Clayton. He was not once dangerous or prominent. The Com- mener, with Clayton up, was the contend- ing horse at the finish. He it was that forced his former stable companion, Henry of Navarre, to a cruel drive to hold his | own. Clifford had all his work cut out to finish shead of Belmar, Hornpipe, Sir Walter and Nankipooh, who were all in hopeless difficulties a couple of furlongs from home. The start for the great race was prompt and good. Belmar was the first to break the even line, but he quickfy vielded the post of honor to Hornpipe. {At the upper n Hornpipe took a comrhanding lead, but was joined by The Commoner as they swung into the back stretdh. This pair had a good streak of daylight be- tween them and Henry of Navarre, who s the most forward of the others. There nt little change in the order until reached the old clubhouse turn, ere Henry of Navarre joined the lead- ers and the others also moved up. ey swung into the homestretch with mmoner in command, lapped to throatlatch by Henry of Navarre, who i Hornpipe and Clifford at his withers, 1t and pace had begun to tell on ter and he dropped back to keep inkipooh company. When they were straightened out for home Hamilton went to work like a fiend Hornpipe. The son of Mr. Pickwick Round Dance responded with sucha on and wonderful burst of speed that the cry “Hornpipe Wins” rang throughout the stand. Griffin, however, still had a tight ry of Navarre. Hornpipe ngth ahead of him, but Griffin not fear him. He sat mo- T and kept his grip on Henry's head until the sixteenth post had been ed. Clayton then made a bold bid for tory on The Commoner. Hornpipe had given up the struggle and Henry ap- peared to have but Clifford to beat. The latter was running sluggishly on the out- side and urge him as Taral would and did he failed to get enough speed out of him to force Henry of Navarre to a drive. The Commoner put a new element of danger in the race so far as Henry of Na- varre was concerned. Hischallenge was so persistent and well-timed that he had headed Henry before Griffin realized that in The Commoner he had a foeman worthy of hissteel. Only once did the lash de- scend upon Henry’s heaving flanks. That was enough. He knew he was required to do his best and with the same dauntless courage that has marked his entire career he put his best energies forth and won by alength. The Commoner, the good thing from the West that had been so carefully bottled up, had to be content with place honors. These he secured from Clifford by half a length. The victory of Henry of Navarre was re- ceived with cheers. The day was a good one for the professional bettors. Attend- ance 20,000. Five furlongs, Preston won, Gotham second, Tremergo third.

ELECTIONS IN- CANADA, The Liberals Have Secured a Clear Mezjority in the | House. Overthrow of the Conservative Gov- ernment Lei by Sir Charles Tupper. TORONTO, O~tARIO, June 23.—The gen- eral election for the Dominion Parliament took place throughout the Dominion to- day and the contest was probably the most hotly contested and in some respects the most bitter in the history of Canada. The result is the complete overthrow of the Conservative Government, led by Sir Charles Tupper. | While the tariff question was the most | important issue of the campaign the | Manitoba school question aroused a greater degree of enthusiasm and excite- ment, and a leading feature in the election was the double-headed policy of the Con- servative party on that question. Many Conservatives ran as supporters of the Government on all questions except as re- gards its present Manitoba remedial legis- lation. Three Cabinet Ministers in the Tupper Government were defeated, viz.: Hon. A. R. Dickey, Minister of Justice; Hon. L. 0. Taillon, Postmaster-General, and Hon. A. des Jardines, Minister of Public Works, Hon. Wilfred Laurier, the Liberal leader, was elected for two constituencies. Dalton McCarthy, leader of the Independents, was also elected for two constituencies. Hon. Joseph Martin, a leading Liberal and author of the Manitoba scnool law, was defeated in Winnipeg by Hugh J. Mac- Donald, son of the late Sir John Mac- Donald. Hon. Peter White, Speaker of the House of Commons, and Hon. A. B. Angers, ex- Minister of Agriculture from the Macken- | zie-Bowell Cabinet, was defeated. Hon. | David Mills, ex-Minister of the Interior in | Alexander Mackenzie's Cabinet, was also | defeated. The vote at midnight stands: Liberals 111, Conservatives 79, Independents 8, Patrons 4. There are still eleven con- stituencies to hear from, but it is conceded that Laurier, Liberal leader, will, on the assemblying of the House, have a clean majority of 68, irrespective of the Inde- | pendents znd Patrons. There was much excitement throughout the country, but the voting passed off quietly. AT, Hot Election in Manitoba. WINNIPEG, Max., June 23.—The Win- nipeg election fought out here to-day be- tween Hon. Joseph Martin, Liberal, and Hon. Hugh John McDonald, Conserva- tive, was without doubt the hottest ever contested in Canada. The excitement was intense, no such scenes having been wit- nessed here before. The issue was the Manitoba national school policy. Mc- Donald was successful. He defeaied the Liberal candidate by a majority of 126, e el SO Joseph Prestwich Dead.

GEN. CAMPBELL BECOMES. INSANE Great Prohibitionist Committed to an Asylum, The HE WAS VERY VIOLENT. Strayed From Home While Un- balanced and Wandered Many Miles. .RAN AMUCK ON THE STREET. Sad Scene in the Courtroom When He Was Examined as to His Sanity. 1.0S ANGELES, Car., June 23.—General A. B. (ampbell, the Republican orator and politician, became violently insane last evening and had to be locked in a padded cell. He has been suffering for some days past from inflammation of the brain and has been acting queeily, but last evening gave the first indication that his trouble was likely to prove serious. He became very violent on Spring street, attempted to kill several persons who ap- proached him and rushed down the street yelling at the top of his voice. Nothing could be done to quiet him, so he was taken in charge by the authorities. fought desperately at the County Jail, yelled as loudly as he could, and even at- tempted to do himself boaily injury. It was necessary to put the cuffs on his hands to secure him. On Sunday last General Campbell wan- dered from the city while temporarily un- balanced and when he partially recovered it was to find himself in the town of Al- | hambra, ten miles from here. To-day he was committed to the asylum at Highlanas, There1s a lingering hope that he may recover in some degree his lost mentality and be restored to his many friends in condition to resume his place in the community, but the basis of such a hope is meager indeed. This splendid man of yesterday pre- sented a pitiable spectacle this forenoon when brought into court, manacled, for the examination. He had ceased his paroxysms of grief and rage and was quiet and self-possessed. He fully understood his sorrowful plight and with grave de- meanor asked permission to make a state- ment in his own behalf and answer the usual questions. Judge Smith, evidently affected by the scene before him, indulged the orator. The general, with perfect coolness and in his choicest English, explained that his father had been subject to fits of melan- | cholia and had died when so affected at | the age of 63. Dr. Tuttle testified that he had gone to the house of Mr. Young in Alhambra in response to a telephone message on Sun- day night and found General Campbell in his mnightshirt raving violently. He brought him back to reason after giving him some bromide. The doctor also testi- fied to several other attacks of violence which had overcome his patient on subse- quent occasions. The general then cross-examined the witness ably and wouna up by asking him if he believed him insane. The answer was “Yes, sir,” upon which the cross- examiner replied that that was what he wanted to know. Then General Campbell went into a dis- sertation on spiritual control, under which he claims to have acted for the last six months. Spirits, he said, wrote his corre- spondence and did all his work for him. He could bring the faces of his familiar spirits before his audience. If he could do that, the court would be convinced that he was not insane. If he could not he | was crazy. The case excited great interest and the courtroom was full of people. Judge Vandyke came in early during the exam- ination, sat with Judge Smith and listened with great attention to General Campbell’s talk. While telling his story the general tried to hypnotize Dr. Ainsworth, one of the medical examiners, and seemed quite dis- appointed that he did not succeed. There being no doubt about Campbell’s lunacy, he was ordered to Hizhlands. The cer- tificate was signed by Drs. Ainsworth, Cochrane and Brainerd. General Campbell came here from Kansas and was a prohibition advocate. s SUNDAY-SCHOOL CONVENTION. Subjects Discussed at the Twelfth Annual Meeting.

Sroorsi el IMPORTANT DECISION, Rights and Privileges of Benevolent So- cieties Defined. LOS ANGELES, Car., June 23.—Judee Shaw of the Superior Court handed down an important decision this forenoon touch- ing the rights and privileges of benavolent societies. The case which brought forth He | | this decision was that of Brun against the board of directors of Societe Francaise Mutuelle. Brun claimed that the late election of the board wasillegal and caused a recount in court, which, however, did not affect the result as returned by the canvassing board of the society. Brun contended that votes had been accepted which, by the terms of the by-laws, should have been rejected for non-payment of dues after two montbs. The court held that, if after two months the society ac- cepted back dues, it forfeited its right to exclude, notwithstanding the stipulation of the by-laws. The decision concluded as follow: custom, so long continued and weil known, would bave the effect to change, or rather destroy, the by-laws, even if they were couched in language strong and explicit enough to cause for- feiture without notice or officia! declara- tion. Such long-continued practice oper- ates as an estoppel against the society. Findings will be made for the defendants.’’ el e, PASTOR HOWAEIYS STANDING. Los Angeles Presbytery Takes His Case Under Consideration. LOS ANGELES, Car, June 23. —Tt seems that the insubordination case of Rev. Burt Estes Howard, late pastor of the Westminster Presbyterian Church here, which was voted out of existence by the General Assembly recently at Saratoga, N. Y., has not been fully disposed of; or, rather, Rey. Mr. Howard is about to be given a rehearing. In view of this the Los Angeles Presbytery, which met at Immanuel Church this afternoon, has the matter under consideration, About fifty ministers and a large num- ber of the congregation was present. L. F. Laverty, the moderator, opened the session with payer. P. D. Young, who acted as secretary, r°ad the oflicial report of the General Assembly, sustaining the action of the synod in regard to Rev. Burt Estes Howard, with explanatory notes.

The reports, which were presented at the congregational meeiing of the First Pres- byterian Church on the night of June 17, were read and J. H, Stewart, Robert Strong, Rev. Mr. Hartley and Elders Con- ger and Yates were appointed as a com- mittee to consider the letter written by Rev. Burt Estes Howard ana report a res- olution. — SPIRITUALISTS AROUSED., Professor Alexander's Alleged FExpose Results in a Challenge. LOS ANGELES, CAL., June 23.—A gen- tleman calling himself Professor Alexan- der has succeeded in drawing upon himself the animosity of the spiritualists of this city. Alexander arrived about ten days ago and advertised that he would outdo *“all the tricks of all the mediums under the sun.” His alleged expose came off last Thursday evening toa crowded house, and judging irom hisses and catcalls, which many of his tricks brought forth. a iarge proportion of those present must have been spiritulists. ‘Alexander was very much annoyed at such treatment, and expr-ssed himself in language more emphatic taan polite re- garding the loca! followers of the occult. Two days afterward Professor Tatum, from among the spirituaiists, issued a spirited challenge to Alexander to meet the challenger in the fiercest of “‘occult’’ combats on the platform. Professor Alex- ander comes back at the unbeliever in spooks and hobgobiins, naming Burbank heater as the place for the “showdown.” Alexander not only shows his willingness for a contest for points, but deciares in his reply to the spookist that he wili forfeit $10 to any charitable mstitution in Los Angeles if he cannot duplicate all the ‘“‘tricks’’ of the spiritualists and go them | several better. - LOS ANGELES FORMERS. City Fathers Pttitioned to Close Busi- . ness Houses on Sunday. L0S ANGELES, Car., June 23.—From time immemorial it has been the custom of certain tradespeople in Los Angeles to keep their places of business open a por- tion of every Sunday. Others of the busi- ness men have been wiliing to close on Sundays, but could not be at the disad- vantage of permitting their competitors to gather in all the Sunday dimes. Much against their will they have met this Sun- day competition by doing business on the Sabbath themselves. Mess Tate and Booth appeared before the council to-day bearing a monster pe- tition, bound 1n book form and entitled as follows: ‘Petition to the Hon. M and City Council of the city of Los An- fides' for an ordinance prohibiting the eeping open on Sunday of all mercantile business, etc.” This petition is indorsed by the Los Angeles Council of Labor, the Retaii Clerks’ Association, the Plasterers’ Association, the Los Angeles Council oi Building Trades, the Barbers Association and 8370 voters and taxpayers of the city. The laboring men are behind the peti- tion and have been at work upon it for the past two months. They claim that not a single name was taken that did not repre- sent a voter or a taxpayer. The petition was referred to the committee on morals. —_— Found Dead in His ¥ard. L0S ANGELES, CAL., June 23.—Coroner Campbell was summoned this afternoon to Lordsburg to hold an inquest upon the body of W. F.

'Investigation proved that death re- sulted from heart trouble. RE FIERCE FIRE IN RED BLUFF, A Number of Dwellings and Barns Were Consumerd. RED BLUFF, CaAL., June 23.—About 2 o'clock this' afternoon, when the wind from the north was blowing almost a gale, a fire originated in a shed in the rear of the residence of J. C. Turner. Before the engines could get to work the fire had leaped to a two-stery frame building be- longing to J. F. Pendleton and occupied by 8. S. Clapp. Beyond Clapp’s home was an open space several hundred yards in width, which stayed the fire’s progress in that direction. With two fires burning, all the force which two steam fire-engines could bring to bear was required, the only surprise is that the destruction was confined 1o two half blocks. To complicate matters engine No. 1 broke down and was useless for about fifteen minutes, after which it was patched up to work at about half force. The principal losers are: Samuel Lewis, J. P. Saderlund, J. N. Gregg, Newt Miller, G. W. Madison and J. F. Pendleton. The sodawater factory and cement works of G. W. Madison, and many sheds, hay barns and stables were also destroyed. An infant child of Mrs. James Maloney had its clothes burned off, but was not seriously injured. So rapid was the progress of the fire that several horses and cows were burned to death, and a magnificent span of pacers valued at $500 belonging to J. J. Grinnell were only taken from the stable after the building was all in flames. The total loss exceeds $20,000, and the insurance is about $12,000. ST S Sl Sonoma County Pedagogues.

Railroaded From One Place to Another by an Agent of Mrs. Dawson. Defendant Wi'l Swear That She Knews Nothing About the Kinseys’ Movements. SEATTLE, Wasm.,, June 23.—George a resident of Kansas City, went on the witness-stand tbis morning in the Dawson divorce case and confessed that he had been bribed by A. A. Eckstrom, a paper- hanger of Los Angeles, to leave Los An- geles with his wife. Eckstrom, the plain- tiff contends, was employed by Mrs. Dawson. The witness said Eckstrom sent for him, and when he went to see him told bim that he cught not to make tbe depo- sitions that be contemplated doing, and asked him to leave the coast untii after June. Eckstrom offered him $50 and all expenses, and told bim that he would not want him to go mnorth, would rather he would go south, and did not want him to correspond with any one while away. Kinsey said he wanted more money, and Eckstrom agreed to give it to him. Eck- strom asked him to go to Arizona with his wife. It was so agreed, and with money in their pockets which Eckstrom had given them and railroad tickets which were purchased with Eckstrom’s money the Kinseys went to Pheenix, Ariz. Mrs. Kinsey, the witness said, had told him to accept Eckstrom’s offer, but his mother, Kinsey said, told him that she did not think it was right. Kinsey had a letter of introduction to G. A. Smith of Pheenix, Ariz. When he reached there he presented the letter, ana later Smith gave | him §25 and told him the next payment would be in ten days. Kinsey received several letters of introduction from Eck- strom through the mail after he had ar- rived in Pheenix. Before leaving Los Angeles Kinsey said Eckstrom told him he would be taken care of at Phemnix. About ten days after Smith had paid Lim $25 the Kinseys went to Kansas City. Smith bought ‘hem tickets and gave them about $10 additional. The Kinseys reached Kansas City in April and the witness ob- tained employment in a dry-goods store. There were about 400 employes in the store. The witness had charge of a soda fountain. His salary was $50, and the the store and was given a leave of absence s0 that he could come to Seattle. The witness said he had received a num- ber of letters while in Kansas City from Eckstrom. They were not signed, and in accordance with a request from Eckstrom he returned them to him. The witness also received several telegrams relating to money matters which were not signed. On June 9, the witness said, he wrote to Mr. Eckstrom that he was being watched by detectives. In answer to a question from General Carr the witness said that he knew he was watched because when he went to the gen- eral delivery for his mail he always met 8 man who followed him home. In answer to the letter written on June 9 the witness said he received a telegram from Eck- strom, which read as follows: “Chanege instantly. Will send you mon- ey by telezram. Answer.” [Nof signed.] The witness said be came to Seattle at General Carr’s request. Mr. Ronald saiu that the defense had no knowledge whatever of the alleged bribery of tie Kinseys. Eckstrom, he said, knew Mrs. Dawson’s mother, but Mrs. Dawson would swear that she never had anything to do with getting the Kinseys out of tne way, nordid she know anything about their leaving.

Activity in Copperopolis Which Will Benefit Stockton. STOCKTON, CaL., June 23.—The Cop- peropolis mines are to be reopened. They have been closed for the past three years, as the price of copper has not been high enough to admit of their being worked with profit. The property belongs to the Ames estate of Boston, and its representa- tive has now decided to work it again. The representative is now in Arizona, but, according to a local merchant who is posted in the matter, will be here next week on his way to the mines. The name of the representative of the Ames estate the local man would not disclose, but he is sure that the valuable mines will soon give plenty of work to local men. 1f the Copperopolis mines start again, as now appears to be certain, it will re- dound to Siockton’s advantage, for when they were 1n operation this city was made the base of supplies for everything used by the miners. They did a great deal more buying here than do the gold miners farther up the road. For this reason the local merchants will be interested in the statement that they will soon reopen. There has never been any doubt as to the productiveness of the mines at Cop- peropolis. They are said to_be far richer than the great Anaconda in Montana that was recently sold to a foreign syndicate for a fabulous sum. The great difficulty has been operating them and getting the prod- uct to market. The shafts are some dis- tance from the railroad, and if they are opened up again on a larger scale, as is contemplated, a branch road may be run from the Milton line to Copperopolis. e POCATELLO DEMONSTRATION, Willis Sweet’s Eeturn to fdaho From the St. Louis Convention.

Mr. Sweet responded in an effective way, recalling touching and awe-inspiring inci- dents of the St. Louis convention and the admiration with which Senator Teller was received, even by his political enemies, when he announced his final determina- tion to leave the party which he had sup- ported all his life. The train then de- parted wich Mr. Bweet for Boise City.
