THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JULY 4, 1896. ALL DEMOCRATIC BUT THE LUXURY. Californians Joined by the Delegateés From Idaho and Utah. SENTIMENT FOR BLAND. Congressman Maguire Tells Why the Missouri Statesman Is Favcred. WAS A CALIFORNIA PIONEER. During the Ear'y Days “Silver Dick” Sought Gold Up in Amador County. GREEN RIVER, Wryo., July 3.—The Utah and Idaho delegation joined us & Ogden. This is now a thoroughly Demo- cratic train in everything but its luxurious appointments. All who speak are for silver, and there is a growing sentiment in favor of Bland for President. Caminetti and I have been for him from the beginning. Rawlins of Utah, who served with us in the Fifty- third Congress, announced himself for Bland also. He is the logical candidate. For twenty years he hasbeen the foremost Democratic leader of the silver fight. The record of his work in Congress is in a large part the history of the free coinage move- ment. Why should not the issue and the man whose name has become synonymous with it be presented together? It is urged that he is not sufficiently aristocratic in his appearance and habits, 1 admit that he would not cut as striking a figure on dress parade or at a gathering of New York’s 490 as some of his critics would, but he isa grand, honest, rugged, broad-minded, large-hearted man of the people. He isa typical Democrat in the truest sense of the term. In addition to all this he was a Cah- fornia pioneer and hus a warm place in his heart for our State and her people. M. Caminetti says: ‘Bland is my first choice, and I will apport him in the delegation, but I will vote for any silver Democrat that the delegation may agree upon. It seems to me that Bland is the ideal candidate at time. He is a man of the highest na! character, and the whole coun- nows his devotion to the silver cause. Like yourself I am strongly influenced to support Bland by my personal friendship for him; but independently of that I think bim not only one of the best, but also as the very strongest of the candi- dates before the people. The fact that 3land lived at Volcano in my county (Amador) and was a pioneer miner there is not to be forgotten. Boies is my second choice, and his silver record is undoubt- edly satisfactory to the whole country. His name would also be a siver plat- form.”” Most of the other delegates are strong for silver and will vote for it, but, as to candidates they are non-committal. They cannot, however, conceal the growing feeling that Bland is the man of the hour. Harry Wise says: *“I am in favor of nominating a strong, conservative man. Of course I want him to be a man who can be relied npon to faithfully execute the pledges of the platform. My presentchoice among the promineat and available candi- dates is Stevenson.” W. W. Foote will probably be elected chairman of the delegation. An informal understanding to that effect was reached this morning. JaMES G. MAGUIRE. e et SILVER REPUBLICANS. Clubs to Be Organized In Kansas to Champlon the White Metal In the Campaign. 8., July 3.—A movement h#s been organized here to establish free ilver Republican clubs in all parts of Kansas, to be known as the “Republican Silver League.” Two hundred Republi- cans of this city have subscribed to the itution of the league, which requires applicants for memberskrip to be former Republicans, Populists and Demoecrats not being admitted. The constitution de- clares that “We are in favorof the free coinage of both gold and siiver at the rate isof 16 to1; and without asking the permis- sion of any other nation on the face of the glove.” Organizers are to be putin the field at once. In Topekaa hailis to be secured as a permanent home for the league, . where the silver guestion will be discussed at regular intervals during the campaign, and where. free silver literature is to be provided for distribution. A WITH PATRIOTIC WORDS. Major McKinley Addresses a Dele- gation of Wage-Earners Who Call at Canton. CANTON, Osnio, July 8.—It was an inter- esting delegation of wage-earners from Tuscarawas County, numbering about 1000, that called on Major McKinley this afternoon. They came with flags flying, drams rolling and bands playing. In the midst of the procession was borne aloft a huge sheet of American bright tin plate manufactured by one of the mills at Cantledover. It isthe largest sheet of tin- plate ever made in the United States, its dimensions being 30x144 inches, Major McXinley was greeted with pro- longed cheering, and in addressing the crowd said: *“This assemblage is fairly typical of our American communities, and it fitly repre sents the varied occupations of the Ameri- can people. You are here not for curiosity nor from any considerations at all per- sonal, but you are here because in your hearts you believe in the great funda- mental doctrines of the Republican party. [Loud applause.] You believe that these principles are best for you when put into practical legislation and administration. You believe these principles will secure to all the people the largest measufe of good times, and you believe that because you recall that for more than a third of a century those great Republican principles designated legislation and administration in this country, and that during all that period you have enjoyed exceptional prosperity. “Here in this country we aie all de- pendent upon each other, no matter what our occupations may be. All of us want good times, good wages, good prices, good markets, and then we want good money always. When we givea good day’s work to our employer we want to be paid in good sound dollars, worth 100 cents and no less. Now whatever policy will bring us back to these good times is the one that the great majority of the American people are in favor of and will so register their votes at the coming election, and you seem to have made up your minds whzfi1 that policy is. ““What I want to see in this country isa return to that prosperity which we en- joyed for so many years. [Loud end continued applause.] What 1 want is to see idle men at work and at American wages [loud applause], and the more men you put at work at good American wages the better markets will the farmers have and the better prices will they get for their products.” A delegation of 100 colored men from Massillon and Stark County called on the major at 10 o’clock to-mght, and were ad- dressed by him. His address was an eulogy of Lincoln and his work for the colored race. He concluded by aying: “I know you love the great cardinal principles of the Republican party [a voice, “You bet your life’], and I am very sure you will be found at all times standing for the best things in the Government—that which will secure the greatest good to the greatest number.” [Applause.] ————— Distikes Nevada’s Semator.

Y., July 3.—A cyclone struck Upton Lake Park, a famous pleasure resort twelve miles east of here, about 8 o’clock to-night and swept many light frame buildings away.

Eugene Debs Is Asked to Deliver an Oration Over the Grave of & Striker. CLEVELAND, O=io, July 3.—The! sit- uation at the Brown Hoist Works had an ominous look this morning. Men gathered on the corners discussing the kiiling of William Rettger. A sin_le shot would very likely have precipitated a bloody riot at any moment. The police were keenly alive to the gravity of the situation. As the non-union men got off the cars at the works they were greeted with cries of “Scab!” “Scab!” but no violence was of- fered. By actual count seventy-five men entered the works and forty-five police- men were on guard. Company F and Company B of the Fifth Regiment were quartered downtown under ‘‘ru-h” orders, every man having twenty rounds of ammunition. As was anticipated by the strikers at noon the Brown Hoisting Company paid off the seventy-two menemployed by them and closed the works, saying they would open Monday with 250 men. This, the strikers say, means that they will not re- open at all. The funeral of William Rettger, who was killed yesterday, will be held to-mor- row. Eugene V. Debs has been asked to deliver the funeral oration. Albert G. Saunders, who shot Rettger, is in a critical condition. He was released on $10.000 bail.

ANTI-SILVER MEN WILL NOT BOLT, Scenes at St. Lounis Will Not Find a Counter- part at Chicago. GOLD MEN TO PROTEST. But They Do Not Intend to Withdraw From the Na- tional Convention, EKEEPING THE PARTY INTACT. First Serious Break in the Ranks of White-Metal Champions Started by Indiana. CHICAGO, ILv., Jaly 3.—It is positively stated that the anti-silver men will not imitate the example of the silver men in St. Louis and bolt the convention when their wishes with regard to the platform are disregarded, as they are sure to be. The so-casled sound-money men, the ‘“‘wise men of the East,” as the silver men have jocularly named them, believe in the efficacy of the machine 1n politics and the necessity of keeping the organization in- tact for the coming campaign. While it is understood that no bolt will be counten- unced, this is not tantamount to a declara- tion that the gold men will permit the con- vention to go for free silver without objec- tion. A dignified and emphatic protest will be made against the course the ma- jority are bent upon taking, but after they have carried the day the gold leaders who disagree with them, it is said, will accept the ticket and the plaiform, and the scenes at St. Louis will find no counter- part at Chicago. 1t is also given out to-night from a free- silver source of prominence that the goid delegation from Michigan will be un- seated, earlier counsels to-the contrary notwithstanding. There has likewise been developed a concentration of sentiment in a number of the delegation favorable to the selection of W. J. Bryan, editor of the Omaha World-Herald, for temporary chair- man. The first serious break in the ranks of the silver men occurred to-night at a meeting of the Indiana delegation. They voted not to go into the caucus on Mon- day. Some of Mr. Bland’s friends visited Indiana neadquarters this afternoon and urged the Hoosier delegates to attend the caucus. After they had gone, at the request of several members of the delegation Senator Turpie, the chairman, issued a call for the meeting. John Lamb of Terre Haute who, as alternate-at-large, will occupy the seat of Senator Voorhees, detained at home by illness, introduced the following resolu- tion: Resolved, That the aélegation ‘from Indiana believe that the nominee of this convention ought to be named by the convention, and we decline to attend or bLe bound by the action of any caucus or conference called for that pur- pose. This precipitated the liveliest kind of a debate, lasting over an hour. The pass- age of this resolution was urged by T. Lamb, W. E. English, of the Indianapolis delegation, and Judge McCabe of the Wil- liamsport District. They took the ground that the proposed action was in violation of all precedent and so un-Democratic that not even the abnormal conditions under which the convention would meet juslitied such a radical departure. Although the Indiana delegation num- bers twenty-six silver men to four gold men the arguments in favor of the resolu- tion caused many of the twenty-six to look favorably upon it, and when Senator Tur- pie, the head of the delegation and an ardent silver man, advocated its passage the scales turned in its favor, and it was passed by a small majority. The exact figures wore not given, for afterward the opponents of the proposition withdrew their opposition and the vote was made unanimous. THE HEALEY REGATTA Yale’s Crew Develop a Rapid Stroke in Their Practice on the Thames, Many Mascots Sent Th:m, Including the Left Hind Foot of a Grave. yard Rabbit. HENLEY, Exe., July 3.—The Yale crew were out on the Thames at 11:45 o’clock this forenoon and rowed down the river, making several short stretches at a stroke of from 38 to 40. The men were in their old boat, asthe new one was undergoing alterations in rigging. The crew were not timed in their work this morning. Crowds are gathering rapidly, and the number of houseboats and launches along the course is increasing very fast. The Yale men to-day received a message conveving the best wishes of the Hacrvard crew of '86 for their success in the race for the grand challenge cup. The crew has also received a large number of Inck- tokens, the four-leaf clover predominat- ing. Among the many offerings of this character is the left hind toot of a grave- yard rabbit, which has been carried by the Yale coxswain in the Yale-Harvard races for the last four years. S SR AN EXPERTS CRITICISM. Row Well, Except That They Hit the Water in Feathering. LONDON, Exg., July 3.—Mr. Ellington, the rowing expert of the Field, telegrapns to the United Press from Henley as follows: “The Yale crew were out this morning in their new boat. They rowed well, ex- cept that they hit the water in feathering. They showed marked improvement, but they have only rowed a fast stroke for two dl'fl." he Caius College four, while at practice this morning, ran into the boat of Dr. McDowell of Chicago, who was on the wrong side of Temple Island. The dam- age is not so serious but that it can be re- }uiud in time for the doctor to take part n the event for which he is entered—the race for the diamond sculls—and he will be one of the contestants. Dr. McDowell was out for practice this afternoon, rowin, in & boat which he had, borrowed an which he.will use while his own is under- oing repairs. EASTERN TURF EVENTS.

Robert Edgren arrived from Sacramento to-day, and Keeler of the Academic League appeared upon the scene early, to make arrange- ments for his team, which is coming by boat in the morning. The grounds are in perfect condition for the field day. The bicycle races will be run first, so the track will not be cut up by the spikes of the sprinters.

There will be a parade herein the morn- ing and literary exercises in the gavilion. but the chief interest centers in the carni- val of sport. it HA A RIVERS INLET STRIKE. Authorities Fear That the Disgruntled Salmon-Catchers Are Plotting Mischief. VICTORIA, B. C., July 3.—The fisher- men’s strike at Rivers Inlet, 200 miles south of Skeena River, where five of the largest canneries in British Columbia are situated, promises to seriously interfere with the season’s salmon pack, and threat - ens much trouble for police authorities here. The steamer Chieftain is nuw on the Sound seeking men to take the place of the strikers, as fish are running well at Rivers Inlet, and every day lost means great expense to tt e cannery men. Last year the canners at the inlet paid 7 cents per fish to the Skeena fishermen and this they were paying this year, but 7 cents a fish has been unsatisfactory to the fisherman since the big strike on the Skeena declared a month or so ago and they now demand a 10-cent rate. There are 1500 strikers, of whom two-thirds are Indians, the others being a.mixed class of whites. They went on a strike two weeks ago and since then fishing operations have been suspended. The strike is sugnosed to have been brought about at the instigation of some of the Columbia River or Skeena River agitators. After it was declared a number of Nor- wegiun_colonists at Bella Colla were en- gaged, but no sooner bad they begzun to fish than they received a threatening noti- fication from an Indian chief to desist, which they complied with. The Indians packed their effects last Monday, and manning their canoes left ort in a fleet of over 100 sails. No one nows exactly where they are destined, but those familiar with their ways believe this move is but a “bluff.” They are likely to be gathered in some secluded bay or inlet, considering a plan of action, and trouble is expected. A posse of special constables was sent north on the Danube on Wednesday even- ing. To-day, upon the return of the Do- minion Government steamer Quadra from the west coast, orders were given for it to go northward immediately. Although it 1s announced in official circles that the Quadra is not to take & hand in the strike, ilz ils not denied that it is bound for Rivers nlet.

LOS ANGELES, Car, July 3.—The Dockery of Los Angeles, Milk Inspector Blackinton, is aroused at last. He swears by the Pleiades ‘“‘milky whey” and the planet Jupiter that henceforth the milk- men of this city and vicinity must obe; all the ordinances regulating their busi- ness. A new ordinance provides that milkmen shall register at the Health Office and ob- tain a permit, besides the regular license, before commencing business. This is to enable the Helllhfi)epnrtmant to find the milkmen and keep them under the regu- lations. The milkmen have evaded the duty, and a fine of $2 recently imposed on one of them by Justice Morrison has been too small to serve as an example. To-day day Inspector Blackinton swore out com- plaints against fifty-seven milkmen for non-compliance with the order. He says it will cost them more than $2 this time. S DR Stephens Sues for Damages.

BOISE, Ipamo, July 3.—William Kern, employed on the ranch of H. G. Wiison, three miles from here, was to-day im- paled on a tine of a forty-pound fork used by means of a derrick to hoist hay from wagons to the top of stacks. The tine en- tered just back of the leit shoulder blade, near the heart. Kern lived about ten minutes. The accident was caused by the break- ing of a pulley attached to a beam over the stack. The heavy fork dropped-about four feet before it struck Kern, who was stooping over. The force of the blow brought him to his knees. The men be- low saw he was hurt, and hastily ascended the stack to his assistance. ".&un’y up,” Kern, as they approached. When the tine, which had penetrated the body almost a foot without protrua- ing, was pulled out, the internal flow of blood could be distinctly heard by those standing near. The gurgling sound lasted a few seconds when Kern, in re- sponse to a suggestion that he be removed from the stack, said: ‘“Let me rest a minute.” He sank, and in a few moments was dead. nmet to-day in front of the Hollenbeck | A FREE COINAGE BANK PRESIDENT, William P. St. John Has Been Compelled to Resign. HIS OUTSPOEKEN VIEWS. Only Prominent Financier in the East Openly Fighting for Silver. QUOTED ALL OVER THE WEST. Suggested as an Acceptable Candidate for President of the United States. NEW YORK, N.Y., July 8.—The fol- lowing statement was given out at the Mercantile National Bank this afternoon: William P. 8t. John has resigned the presi- dency of the Mercantile National Bank. For several years Mr. St. John has outspokingly advocated the free coinage of silver. Recently the feeling in banking circles against a bank president advocating free silver has been mani- fest. The matter was brought to an issue this morning at a meeting of the board by his reading a letter from one of the directors, of ‘which the following is an extract: ““Dear Mr. St. John: I have just heard that you intend to take part in the Siiver Conventicn at Chicago. You are under obligations not to do 80, is my belief. * * * Iadmit that the posi- tion you hold gives you power before a conven= tion, but you ought not to go when you know your board is against your views, as well asall money-centers. Iam your friend.” Mr. St. John was recently requested by reso- lution at a mass-meeting held in this city to attend the National Democratic Convention and urge the incorporation of certain pream- bles and demands into the platform of the Na- tional Democracy. The first of these demands 1s independent and unlimited iree coinage of silver at 16 to 1. Mr. 8t. John resigned his office of president of the Mercantile National Bank because & majority of his directors thought his com- phiance with that request would be harmful to the bank. The board accepted his resignation with a unanimous expression of regret. The Mercantile National Bank is at 191 Broadway, and is one of the best known banks in the city. Mr. St.John has been especially noted as practically the only financier of prominence in the East who openly favored the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. He was the only free silver New York City bank president, and as such his sayings and writings have been quotea all over the West. A few months ago & Denver newspaper sug- gested him as un acceptable free silver can- didate for President of the United States. HAL SR DIEGD'S QUEEN Caroline the Fair Will Rule in State on the Bay Te-Night. A Parade of Thousands of Cyclists Opens the Midsummer Carnival. SAN DIEGO, CAr., July 3.—Crowds are coming into the city to attend the water carnival. Forthe first time in San Diego’s history a real, live queen will rule, and she is a pretty one, too. Caroline Pol- hamus is her name on common occasions, but during the carnival she will be called her Majesty, and she will wear robes to- morrow night worthy of her station. Her barge will appear as of beaten gold, and it will be illumined on the water by hun- dreds of colored electric lights, manu- factured on board. The young Queen will be attended by a score of maids and youths, attired in the court costume of old Versailles, and a young page will wield a big peacock-plume fan to waft the plebeian firecracker smoke from the face of the ruler. The procession of pleasure craft, all brilliantly lighted and decorated, will be over two miles long. It will wind upon the glassy waters of the bay in spirals of beautiful colors. To-night the illumination bicycle lan- tern parade drew thousands out of doors. Like all nights under San Diego skies, it was balmy and full of the romance that hangs over the lapd. Thousands of wheels, adorned by Japanese lanterns, flowers and flags, moved in procession through the streets, preceded by galloping policemen and the Guard band of thirty ieces, playing sach patriotic airs as “The tar - Spangled Banner,” “Dixie” and “Yankee Doodle.” Girls as well as boys Ihrllcipnted in the arade. They were clad in red, white and Ehxe gowns, and they pedaled upon won- derful machines, appearing to be moving bouquets and electric lights. All this was accompanied by the bluster of bombs, the swishing of rockets hurling toward the empyrean, and the wail of the small boy making his first acquaintance with the in- | flammatory cracker. All the streets are garbed ason a fete day in Southern France. The doors, win- dows and facades are draped with colors and hung with lanterns.
