RATES T0 BE CUT ALL ROUND. Traffic Manager Mosé Has a New Schedule Ready to Spring. WAITING FOR ENGINES The Entire Tariff of Freights on the Valley Road to Go in Shortly. BIG REDUCTIONS TO BE MADE Shippers Will Be Taxed Twenty to Twenty-Five Per Cent Less Than at Present. Within two weeks the Valley road will be in the field as an all-round competitor with ihe Southern Pacific for the trans- portation business of the lower portion of the great San Joaquin Valley. Two of its seven giant locomotives, which were ofdered a few months ago, are expected to arrive at Stockton any day and as soon as they are ready for service the new road will issue a tariff-sheet to cover shipments of all kinds in carload lots between Stockton and La Grande, two stations south of Merced. This tariff is already prepared, but will not be made public until the road is thrown open for general business. The first intimation of this contem- plated move on the partof [raffic Man- ager John Moss came in a communication he sent 1o the Railroad Commission yes- terday. It read as follows: Ihave named a rate to-day of $185 perton of 2000 pounds for carriage of lime from Stock- ton to Merced in carload lots of twelve tons and upward. This is in advance of our regular tariff-sheet, which I hope to issue ere long. On the strength of the significant closing sentence of this brief epistie an interview was sought with Mr. Moss. He made the following statement: “Two of our locomotives are on the way here and we expect {o have them ready for work by the end of this month, when we shall endeavor to relieve the producers and shippers of the valley as far as we are now operating—that is, between Stockton and a little south of Merced—by handling general freight in carload lots. “We have no warchouses at present, and therefore are not in a position to bandle miscellaneous merchandise until our ‘warehouses and sheds are complete. But we shall be prepared to handle car- load lots of any kind of goods. Our rolling-stock comprises 250 flatcars and 50 boxcars.” Owing to the recent fire in Merced there is a considerable amount of rebuildins to be done, and among other things lime is largely in demand in that city. Many in- quiries for a rate on this article were re- ceived by. Traffic Mansger Mcss, and finally acceding to the demands of the situation he yesterday quoted the rate mentioned 1 the communication ad- dressed to the Railroad Commission. This rate of $1 85 is a reduction of $1 25, or 40 per cent, from that at present charged by the Southern Pacific Company. Mr. Moss, with his customary courtesy, informed General Freight Agent Smurr yesterday the new rate the Valley Road had made effective, and there is every probability that the Huntington line will promptly meet the cut. : While the Valley Road tariff asa whole is not to be made public till it becomes operative, it is known it will make reduc- tions on all classes of freight that will be equivalent to an average cut of between 20 and 25 per cent. The heaviest pruning will be done on the lower grade ireight. The cuton this in some cases will be as much as 40 or 50 per cent. On some arti- cles, whose value is very small, the freight charges are now so out of proportion to their cost that they have virtually pro- hibited any movement in them. Under the Valley road schedule this policy of strangling industry by trying to exact more than the traffic will bear will be rendered nugatory, and all the industries of the Ban Joaquin Valley wiil receive a new stimulus. Traffic Manager Moss has already dis- covered that his path is to be more thorny than rosy. He had a visit yesterday from W. B. Harrison of the Farmers’ Union Warehouse of Stockton, and Mr. Gillis of the Union Transportation Company of the same city. The object of their visit was to try and induce the Valley road to increase the differential between Stockton and Ban ¥rancisco on grain. They claim that the present rate of 50 cents between the two cities tended to injure the ware- house business of Stockton to the benetit of San Francisco, They also represented that where wheat s warehoused in Stock- ton before being shipped to San Francisco or Port Costa the transportation com- panies should stand the expense of the double handling, which 1s 10 cents per ton. To comply with this demand would virta- ally mean to cut the rate 10 cents on the regular through rate from interior points to Port Costa or 8an Francisco. Neither of these suggestions is likely to be adopted, as, under the circum- stances, to do so would be out of harmony with all business principles. This matter has attracted considerable attention at Stockton. 1t is said that the trouble is really caused by the rivalry éx- isting between the California Navigation and Impro‘vemsnt Company and the Union Transportation Company. The former succeeded in‘*making a traffic,ar- rangement with the Valley road, thus se- curing a large increase in thevolume of its business. Gillis, who represents the Union Transportion Company at 8tockton, is also interested in the Farmers’ Union warehouse, and therefore, it is said, has a double motive in advancing the idea that Stockton is being treated fairly, In a recent interview published in the Stockton Record, H. J. Corcoran, manager of the California Navigation and Improve- ment Company, explained the situation as follows: “The rates put out by the Valley road on grain to Port Uosta and S8an Francisco will make no change at all in the grain trade of Stockton, except to bring grain through here which formerly went all rail to Port Costa. “Mr. Moss of the Valley road is a thorough transportation man, and realizes that to get business for his road he must meet competition rates. This he has done, and no more. No one not & fool would THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, expect the. Valley road to name a higher differential than 50 cents, becauss it would cause 1t to lose all its business to San Francisco. “Some of the local warehousemen are responsible for this small difference in the cost of shipping, because when ouf com- pany increased the rate to 75 cents per ton, to protect them as well as ourselves, they threw all their patronage to our com- petitors at the old rate of 50 cents and forced us to restore that rate or: our tariff. They should bear with Christian fortitude the consequences of their own foolish and greedy policy.’’ A SUSPECTED BURGLAR: Albert Paul Is Confined in the Tanks at the City Prison Pending an Investigation. Albert Paul is confined in the tanks at the City Prison pending an investigation. He and another for whom the detectives are searching are suspected of being the burglars who have recently been operating 80 extensively in Oakland. Detectives Gibson and Wren, after dili- sgnt inquiry, found that they bad been isposing of their plunder to a “‘fence” on Mission street. They instructed the ‘“fence’’ to notify a policeman the next time they called. On Tuesdav morning they called with several hundred dollars’ worth of broken jewelry. *'The *‘fence’’ made some sort of an_ excuse and went outside. He saw Policeman Sullivan and told him that two men wanted by Gibson and Wren were in his place. Sullivan demurred, as he thought he might get into trouble, and while he was in that condition of mind Paul and his companion got suspicious and left the place, taking different direc- tions. Sullivan went after Paul and ar- rested him. The other man is still at liberty.

From the Potrero to the Democratic Tenth Ward. ALL ARE OUT FOR PROGRESS. Trades and = Tradesmen Will Bloom and Boom After November. All The Twenty-ninth Assembly District, situated in the heartof the Tenth Ward, bounded by Market, Third, Bryant and Fifth streets, was until recently as closely the !lefmb[icsn v irty, McManus in one of his talkative mwoods a few days ago ex- pressed himself as follows: “Iam a Republican. Iam for McKin- ley and I am for John D, Spreckels, and I don’t care who knows it either. “I am for the Republican party because it is the party of progress and protection. It is the party and the only party that has elevated the workingman out of the groove in which the Southern oonon-tlmur kept the negro. This party has kept up the aignity of labor, kept up the pay of the men and regulated the working hours to eight hours a day. It is for home produc- tion, home protection and for keeping the taxes down. ? “I am for McKinley because he isthe father of protection, as Washington was the father of liberty, and with McKinley as President this country will bloom and boom with industries. Manufactories will open up_ all over the face of this broad land, and in place of 1000 men being em- loyed in the Union Iron Works there will 4000, and so it will be in the Rolling- mills and in every branch of business throughout the whole land. “I am for John D. Spreckels because he isa clean, pure man, raised right here in San Francisco, knows the wants of the people, and isin Yolmcs for the purpose of making politics clean and decent. ‘‘He wants nothing out of politics. He has all he wants, but he loves this City and he loves the Republican party, and it is for the purpose of making that party an honor to the country and one fit to belong to that makes him spend his time and his money. “‘In years gone by no decent man could afford to be known as a politician. It was next to being & horsethief. But with such men as John D. Spreckels at the head of it no man need be ashamed to say that he is a Republican. Spreckels has no defense to make against his character. Itcannot | be attacked. He is above reproach, and with such a man at the head of the party in this City, if the respectable people want clean, good government they can get it.” The %ollowmg are the officers of the new =5 6 00 ¢ fi FRAN® ) rMmemandg On OHN RIORDAN RECORDING SECRETARY.

Donations Are Being Solicited and Already a Hall Has Been Secured. 1°A large number of the promoters of the festival to be given next October in aid of the Youths’ Directory, met last evening at the directory on Howard street, near Seventeenth, to make arrangements for the entertainment. Rev. Father Crowley, who is at the head of the directory, is one of the most active workers for the festival, which promises to be one of the most elaborate and successful affairs ot its kind ever held in this City in spite of the numerous other carnivals that are to be held about the sume time. President James R. Kelly of the Hibernia Bank acted as chairman of the meeting last night. The first action of the president was to appointa committee to see the wholesale dry-goods dealers of the City and to obtain donations from them for the festival. The following gentlemen were appointed : David J. Costello, C. C. Curtin and James Coughlan. Father Crowley stated that the gentle- men composing the various collecting com- mittees had not yet been notified, as he wished the ladies” to have a chance first, He also announced that Armory Hall, 1327 Market street, had been secured for the festival. - Father Crowley announced that during the week he had bean visited by Mixe. Louise Sorbier of the Woman’s Educa- tional TUnion, who declared that the Youths’ Directory fair would seriously hurt the Carnival of Nations which tte Woman’s Union is going to give a month later. While the promoters of the di- rectory festival regretted very much that there should be any trouble between the two organizations, he could not very well do anything in the matter, as the many arrangements had already been made for the festival. Resolutions e ressing regret and a de- sire to harmon with the Woman’s Union were ordered to be sent to Mue. Sorbier by the secretary. locked in the arms of the Democratic party as any section in Alabama or South Carolina could possibly be. It was so Democratic that in years gone by the organizing of a Republican club in this section was considered an act almost of effrontery. In fact, so scarce were the Republicans in that section of San Fran- cisco that when the officers intrusted with conducting the election sought com- petent men belonging to the Republican party to fill the positions of inspectors, judges and clerks of precinct boards a suffi- cient number politically qualified for such service could not be found. Baut, like ail other things, a change has come over the inhabitants of that region on the south side of Market street. The late W. T. Higgins, who was an assiduous pohtician in his day, saw the necessity of breaking down the Demo- cratic barriers b{ organizing the ycung men of that section into a political "body. With this object in view, the storm of Democratic opposition was braved and the Howard Republican Club was the result. This was the entering wedge, and with the planting of the Howard Club within the confines of the enemy’s walls converts to the party of progress and protection sprang up on all sides. To-day there 1s not only a Howard Club in the Twenty- ninth Assembly District but a Republican McKinley Club, with » first-class orgzan- ization and officered by bright, intelligent and patriotic young men. That this publican club is merely ornamental and of no practical use to the arty to which it is loyally attached is far rom the truth, as can be seen by the votes cast for the respective nominees upon the Assembly ticket two years ago. John D. Coughlin, the Democratic nomi- nee, Eollaa 1305, his opponent, John J. Daughney, t:e Republican nominee, f_olh:d 882, with George Elliott, a Repub~ ican, who received the Populist nomina- tion, getting 667. From these figures it will be seen that tho Republican can- didate came within 423 votes of winnin, the prize. And it is conceded by well- informed politicians that had Elliott been out of the fight, Daughney would have been elected. However this may be, it cuts no figure now; the McKinley Club is there to stay for the campaign, and its members intend to make their presence felt before the third day of next No- ‘vember. To Frank McManus is due a great deal of the success of the Republican reform movement in the district. He has liver in the Potrero for years, and was the one who two years ago formed the Republican club upon wiich the present McKinley Club is now reorganized. | In giving his reasons for his loyalty to club, all of whom were elected for the en- suing year: President, M. Shaughnessy; first vice-president, John McNarmrara; sec- ond vice-president, T. McManus; third | vice-president, William Savaze; financial | secretary, George W. Kearney; recording secretary, J. E. Riordan; executive com- mittee—William P. Doran (chairman), F. A. Martin, James Galvin, Henry Mec- Laugblin, Frank McManus, J. J. Feeney, T. Barry, W. H. Hughes; sergeant-at-arms, J. Shaughne: The club has at present a membership of 231 members. On motion of J. McNamara nineteen vice-presidents were appointed by the chairman as an enrolling committee to represent the nineteen precincts in the Twenty-ninth Assembly District. To show that McManus is in full accord with the members of his club It will on! be necessary to say that when William Py Doran made a motion indorsing John D. Spreckels, the National committeeman, as the club’s leader the audience went wild with enthusiasm. Cheer after cheer for Spreckels and M cKinley were given. SUIT TO FORECLOSE. The California Academy of Medicine Gives a New Mortgage to Pay an 01d One. The Security Savings Bank has brought suit to foreclose a mortgage on the prop- erty of the San Francisco Mutual Benevo- lent Society and California Academy of Medicine at Bush street and Van Ness avenue. On August 1, 1890, the medical society executed & promissory note for $12,000 in favor of the bank, the note being secured by the mortgage in question. The society has been unable to pay off the mortgage yet and they wisih more time in whicn to pay it. The present suit is merely the legal method of continuing the mortgage—the bank forecloses the old mortgage and the society borrows money from the bank to pay it, giving a new mortgage for the amount necessary. This course is necessary on the part of the bank to prevent the old mortgage from outlawing. Mayne Worrall’s Estate. Public Administrator Freese has applied for letters of administration on the estate of Mayne Worrall, the young English woman whose sudden and mysterious death at Pllltce Hotel some time ago caused such & sation. Miss Worrall left Droperty valued at about #700. Her father, who is in England, has re- ?uuua that Mr. Freese be appointed adminis- rator, JULY 17, 1896 NEW DEMOCRATIC -~ LOCAL MACHINE, Buckley, Rainey, Daggett! and Lanigan Plan- ning One. DUNDON’S OWN SCHEME. The Ex-Supervisor Holds a Frosty Harmony Meeting in a Courtroom. WATCHED BY THE BIG BOSSES. Dundon Would Unite the Junta and the Buckleyites by a District Operation. Ex-Supervisor P. F. Dundon is trying to reorganize the local Democratic party and he succeeded last evening in holding a rather frosty meeting in Judge Conlan’s Police Court room for the purpose. The party is about to be reorganized, but greater masters of practical politics than P. F. Dundon—Buckley, Rainev and Lanigan—are going to boss this operation and they will see that Mr. Dundon doesn’t run things too far off the track as he goes about working his ambitious scheme. Buckley and Rainey are taking an in- terest in Mr. Dundon’s plan and might possibly ap propriate it later, but just now they are only regulating it. Rainey, Daggett and Lanigan are about ready to chuck the Junta into a common pot with the Buckley organization and then divide the new organization with Buckley, in which operation Chris will become boss of the works. Dundon is trying to get the district committees of the two organizations to unite and select a new machine. The Buckley plan, which is mainly being en- gineered by John McUarthy, president of the Occidental Club, is to have both sides agree on a committee of seven, which shall control a primary election, at which a new county committee and delegates to a municipal convention shall be chosen. McCarthy is proposing Senator White, Congressman Maguire, J. F. Sullivan, Henry Eichoff and Sam Daniels as mem- bers of this committee. Dundon has been interviewing members of both factions for two or three weeks, and among those invited to be pres- ent at the meeling last night were: George T. Marye, Chris Reis, J. T. Burke, J. W. McDonald, P. J. Harney, Dr. C. A. Clinton, James Batler, John J. M2Dade, Richard 1. Whelan, James M. Block, William M. Hinton, Joseph Leggett, P. F. Dundon, Jeremiah Lynch, W. McEnerney, James M. Smith, | Judge J. J. Coffey, H. J. McAvoy, James D. Phelan, Joseph Clark, F. F. Strother, H. C: Creswell, John McCarthy, Judge €. T. Conlan, A. M. Armstrong, James £. Twigg and John E. Buckley. Those who responded were Fire Commis- sioner McDunald, ex-Supervisor Strother, Armstrong, McCarthy and Twige. While this corporal’s guard Fntienlly waited for an hour the arrival of some of the other invited harmonizers, quite a number of uninvited Democrats dropped in. Among these were Superintendent George McGinn of the House of Correction, Deputy Shenff Clack, Walter Gallagher, T. 8. Cronin, Harry M. Kelly and Joe Hayes. John McCarthy also came to keep an eye on things. It was about 9 o’clock when Mr. Mc- Donald became chairman of the meeting which he called to order. Mr. Twigg was selected as secretary. Dundon took the floor and after explain- ing the purpose of the meeting to be to devise plans to reconcile the differences existing between the two Democratic factions submitted the following as the basis of wooing peace back into the house of Democracy : | ‘We do hercby recommend that for the pur- | pose of uniting the whole Democratic party in | this City and County, the members of the general commitiee of both factions shall fill any vacancies that are existing, and then at | an appointed and agreed date buth committees shall come together in their several districts and select and elect one man to represent each precinct in the district, and the precinct re) Tesentatives so selected and elected shall in their several districts select and elect one man outside of themselves, who shall be the district represeniative, and the precinct and disirict representatives so selected and elected sh; be the Democratic general committee and the district representatives shall be the executive committee of the general committee, and the general committee and the executive committee shall each elect theirown officers. When theabove committee is selected and elected both the present general commit- tees shall disband lugallow the new commit- tee to conduct tne campaign and the affairs of | the party, and formulate such plans as they may consider for the best interests of the organization. After a short discussion the motion by John McCarthy that the matter be post- poned until next Tuesday night was car- ried. [t is not likely that Dundon’s par- ticular scheme will get much further. HANDBALL AND BOXING. Olympic Players Meet at the Occiden- | tal Court —Slavin and Joe MeAuliffe. The sannual championship handball | tournament of the Olympic Club wascom- | menced last evening at the Occidental | courc on Grove street. It was almost 9 P. M. when referee E. N. Short called the first set of pfayers “into court.” \ Heuer and Bush met Slavin and Cobb in | the best two out of three games. The' latter team, which represented the third class, easily disposed of their opponents. | The first game resuited in a close finish, | Slavin and Cobb winning, the score stand- | ing 21to 18 in their favor. The second | game resulted also in their favor—score | 21 to 12. | In the second class Morton and Coffin | met James and Bradley. The former won the first score 21 to i7. The second and | third games were won by Bradley and | James. Scores: 2111, 21—12. | The finish of the firsi-class teams will be | decided this evening. | Quite a larze gathering of ladies and gentlemen witnessed the contests. Young Mitchell, the director-gzeneral of the Occidental Athletic Club, consum- mated a match yesterday between Joe Mc- Auliffe (Barney Farley’s boy) and Frank P. Slavin, late of New York, but recently of London, England. McAuliffe weighs | 290 pounds at present, but his old trainer, Far{’ey. contends that he will run his boy | down to 230 pounds by the time he meets Blavin. Mitchell says that the contest will take | place under the auspices of his club in September. 'he sports who know McAnliffeand are conversant with his ways of training say that Farley cannot possibly hold McAui- | iffe in check, but as this wili be his last chance, the “Mission Giant” may get down to hard work and train as other fighters who mean business do. g Frank P. 8lavin will arrive in this City on Satarday evening. There will be spir- ited bidding among the clubs for the con- test between Slavin and Choynski. BIG CHANGE IN RATES. Rush to Avoid the Fares Restored by the Pacific Coast Steamship Company. Advices received at the local offices of | the Southern Pacific yesterday state that | the special train out from Portland last | night consisted of fiftcen tourists and five | standard coaches, containing about 400 | people on their way to this City. | For the train that leaves this City to- | night for the north there have already | been about 300 applications for tickets, | and by the time the train leaves it is ex- | pected that the number_will reach nearly | This great rush is due to the fact that these are the last trains that will be | operated under the cut rates which have prevailed for the last ten months. The Pacific Coast Steamship Company bhas issued its formal notice restoring the passenger rates to British Columbia and Puget Sound points. These become cffec- tive on the steamshiv Umatilla, which leaves Tacoma July 20, and on the steam- ship Walla Walla, which leaves this City July 23. The restored rates are $15 first class to Victoria, Port Townsend, Seattle and Tacoma. The same rates apply south bound. ——.—————— Potrero Lands. The case of Attorney A. E. Ball, charged with fraudulently conveying lands in the Potrero, on the complaint of Mrs. P. Farrington, came up before Judge Campbell yesterday afternoon.

The preliminary examination of Irvin Baruch, charged with assault to murder Abe Rosenheim, alias “Sleepy Jake,” by shooting him in the back on Kearny street on June 29, was held before Judge Campbell yesterday. | Baruch acted as his own counsel. He was held to answer before the Superior Court in $10,000 bonds. NEW Last Days---The Clean-Up! TO-DATY. | weakness and barrenness. To-day and to-morrow ends it. Come now or never.
