4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1896. SAN JOSE'S NEW PARTY MEETING Prohibitionists From All Over the State Will Attend. S ITS EXPANSIVE OBJECT. Will Not Confie Itself to the Abolition of the Liquor Traffic. WANTS A BROADER PLATFORM Advocates Woman Suffrage, Free Coin- age, Liberal Pensions and Restric. tion of Immigration. SAN JOSE, CAL., July 17.—Prohibition- ists from all over the State will meet here on Friday, July 23, and discuss the new party movement, which is known as the National party. The meetiug will bein the nature of a conference and will be at- tended by most of the prominent Prohi- bitionists in the State. Among those present will be General John Bidwell, ex-candidate for President; Henry French, ex-candidate for Governor; Chauncey H. Dunn, candidate for United States Senator, and J. M. Glass, chairman of the State committee. The National party, or new movement, originated at the National 'Convention held in Pittsburg in May, when the nar- row-gauge faction voted down a woman suffrage plank by a majority of fourteen out of a total of 800 delegates. The narrow-gauge faction followed up their victory by adopting a platform of a single plank, calling for the abolition of the liquor traffic, and named Joshuna Levering of Maryland for President and Hale Johnson of Illinois for Vice-Presi- dent. The broad-minded delegates rebelled, and held an all-night session. Under the name of the National party they adopted a platform demanding not only the aboli- tion of the liquor traffic, but woman suffrage, free coinage of both gold and silver, non-sectarian schools, liberal pen- sions, exclusion of pauper and criminal | immigrants, an international board of arbitration, preservation of public lands from monopoly, Government control of railroads and telegraph, an income tax, adoption of the initiative and the refer- endum, and election of United States Sen- ators by direct vote of the people. They named C. E. Bentley of Nebraska for President and J. H. Southgate of North Carolina for Vice-President. At the meeting of the Prohibition State Central Committee in San Francisco next Wednesday the members favoring the National party movement will resign. The meeting in this city is for the pur- pose of making arrangements for an active campaign, and will be followed by a State convention about a month later. Peti tions will at once be circulated in order to obtain 3 per cent of the voters’ signa- tures, so as to obtain a place on the ticket. There will be a National county ticket in the field, as well as a State and elecioral ticket, and a vigorous fight will be made for the party nominees. e Jane Pearce Sucs for Divorce.

AT DUNHAM SEEN AGAIN., This Time Sixty Msles Northwest of San Zuis Obispo. SAN LUIS OBISPO, CAL., July 17.—A lively report has just reached here from the Cholame country, sixty miles north- west of thiscity, which is to the effect that Dunham, the multi-murderer of Camp- bells, has been seen in that section within the past twenty-four hours; that a man was seen with a growth of whiskers on his face about an inch in thickness, whose figure and bearing resemble those of Dun- ham, and especially the features, as well as could be made out from such a thick beard on his face. The man had on gray pants, which were badly shredded and showed hard usage, and rode a bicycle which seemed to be the worse for wear. There are good grounds for the belief that this man is Dunham, as he was su posed to have been seen at Bradley onry three aays ago, and was then headin, the Cholame secrion. Officers have questioned here in regard to the matter, but do not say much as yet. There is every indication that the suspect will be searched for at once, as Sheriff Ballou of this county will not neglact the slightest clew, even at this late day. It is safe to say that if the man is Dunham his ca; ture will be effected, as the men who will be sent to hunt him np know this section of country better than he does.

CAN THROW NO LIGHT Does Not Know and Has Never Heard of the Mau Barnard. THE DAINTY BLOODY SHIRT. ° Strong Belief That It Will Identified and Lead to the Murderer’s Arrest. Be SANTA BARBARA, Cair, July 17.— The following letter was received to-day from Scott Richardson, stepson of the late Mrs. Richardson: MINNEAPOLIS, July 8, 1896. Sheriff Hicks, Santa Barbara, Cal.—DEAR 81 Your telegram came to the house about on hour after I left. I1sam working for Hennepin County, eighteen miles out of the city. I came home on the 2d. There was no work until after the 4th. I went out on the 7th and my wife droveout after me to-day andI came right in and answered your dispatch. Idid not know that you had sent to police headquarters until after I had sent the message. The report- ers have been to see me about the man Barnard. 1 do not know him or remember of ever hear- ing of him wbile in Santa Barbara. Father had a young boy when we first came out there, butl did notsee him after that. Hehad no one all the time Iwas there. Please write me full particulars and send Santa Barbera papers. Yours respectiully, BcoTT RICHARDSON. The bloody shirt found by Officer Storni near the scene of the murder last Sunday has not yet been identified. The shirt is homemade and by a skillful, painstaking seamstress, the buttonholes being hand- worked, with daintily regular stitches. Some Santa Barbara woman made the shirt, but whether it was afterward do- nated to or appropriated by the murderer or clothed one of her own who may be implicated in the crime, no one can tel. The belief is strong that it will be identi- fied, and through it a clearer light cast upon the tragedy. POPULAR PLAZA CONCERTS, Santa Barbarans REeveling in Choloe Music Night and Day.

SENATOR WILSON'S STAND Will Stump Washington State for McKinley, Hobart and Protection. A Bimetallist on an International Basis, but Opposed to Free Sil- ver Coinage. SEATTLE, Wass, July 17. — United States Senator John L. Wilson of Spokane errived in‘Seattle to-day, and for the first time since his return from the National capital outlined his course in the cam- paign now on. Substantially he recedes from his position in the Senate, where he voted regularly in support of free-silver measures. He now proposes to take the stump for McKinley and Hobart, insisting that the State convention declare for bi- metallism along the lines of an interna- tional agreement, or in other words, a single goid standard. “While I am not much of a free-silver man,” Washington’s junior Senator be- ®an, “it is a mistake to charge that all free- silver people are fanatics, lunatics and re- pudiationists—a mistake as great as to say that sound-money men are conspirators and goldbugs. In response to what seemed to be the desire of the people of the State of Washington, and in compliance with a resolution for free coinage passed the Legislature that elected me to the United ~ States Benate, and - in ac- cordance with the platform of the last Republican State Convention, 1 have cast everv vote since 1 have represented this State in the Senate for the free coin- age of silver. I have so voted because I 10 give expression to the views of the people of the State of Washington as I understand them. now think I have a ri*ht to go upon the stump in the State of Washington and ask those whose ad- vice I have been following and whose peti- tions I have been heeding that they stand in line with me for the Republican ticket and trust to the intelligence and triot- ism of the Republican administration to solve this question through an interna. tional agreement. “Iam and always have been & bimetal- list, but I always have had and_still have serious doubts as to the ability of the United States to maintain free coinage of silver without the co-operation at least of other great European commercial rations. Ido not think the co-operation of Eng- land essential to an international agree- ment. 1 think Austria, Germany, France andthe United States could successfully maintain such a policy.’’ e S 'CHICO REPUBLICAN RALLY. Urganization of a McKinley and Hobart Campaign Club. CHICO, CatL., July 17.—In response to & call issued by the chairman of the Chico Republican Clup the City Hall was crowded with Republicans last evening. A new club was organized and named the McKinley and Hobart Republican Club of Chico. Eugene Canfield, an enthusiastic Republican, was elected president. with Guy R. Kennedy, a young attorney, as secretary. The following pledge was drafted t0 head the roll: We, the undersigned, hereby associate our- selves together for the purpose of forming & Republican campaign club to conduct the campaign of 1896, said club 10 be known as the McKinley and Hobart Republican Club of Chico, and we hereby announce that we be- lieve in the principles of the Republican party as enunciated at the National Convention of 1896, and agree to support its nominees at the coming election. ¥ The roll wassigned by every one present, and it will be buta short time until the number will reach up in the hundreds, as all the Republicans in tnis vicinity are taking unusual interest in the comiuns campaign. Committees were appoin to see that all voters who have not as yet registered are registered before Augnns. Numerous s es were made highly commending the Republican candidates and their platform. Itis certain thatall the old and young Republicans here will stand firm to their party. —— BOLTING S8TOCKTON DEMOCRATS. Chairman Gould Disregards Bilver in Making Appointments. STOCKTON, Car., July 17.—Chairman Gould of the Democratic State Central Committee was seen to-day concerning the statement that A. A. Watkins had bolted the party and had asked to be let off the list of State Central Committeemen appointed by | Gould, because he did not faver the silver platform of the Democrats. He was also asked if he knew at the time of ap- pointing him that James Denman, an- other member of the State Central Oom- mittee, was a goldbug. “Ido not know now whether Mr. Wat- kins or Mr. Denman are gold men,’” re- plied Mr. Gould. *“I selected Mr. Den- man without reference to this question, because I knew him to be a sterling Demo- crat and one who would do much good for the party. Watkinsg' name was on the list of committeemen when it was first made out, but he isa very busy man and asked that Mr. Denman's name be sub- stituted for his. This was done before the list was sent 10 the secretary of the State Central Committee, and so there is nothing in the report that he resigned from the committee, for he never was on it.” Gould does not hesitate to say that he aisregarded silver altogether in” making his appointments. s STOCKTON DEMOCRATIC RALLY. Fireworks, Bonfires and Speeches in the Plaza To-Night. STOCKTON, CaL., July 17.—The Demo- cratic ratification meeting to-morrow evening will commence at 8 o’clock. Itis to be Leld on the plaza. There will be no parade, asit is too early in the campaign for torchlight processions and as no politi- cal clubs have yet been formed. But there is to be a biz display of fireworks, with plenty of rockets and bombs, and there will be bonfires on the plaza. W. M. Gibson will act as chairman of the meeting, which will be opened by H. R. McNoble as chairman of the Demo- cratic County Central Committee. Speeches will be delivered by Chairman Gibson, Judge Budd and Frank H. Gould from among the Democratic ranks, and by Dr. A. L. Foreman of the Poputist party. L. W. Elliott, an old-time Prohibitionist, will also unite in doing honor to the silyer candidates, and wiil deliver an address. —_— FRESNO DEMOCRATIC F1A4SC0. Bryan and Sewall Club Formed Under Discouraging Circumstanees. FRESNO, CaAL, July 17.—Democrats formed a Bryan and Sewall ¢lub in this city last night, but 1t almost amounted to failure. Ex-Senator G. G. Goucher was the mover of the organization, but his ex- pectations that a large and enthusiastic crowd would assemble in the courthouse park, where had called the meeting, were by no means realized. About twelye Democrats were in attendance by 8:30 and by 9 o’clock there were about twenty spec- tators. Finally George L. Hood nal{od the meeting to order. E. D. Edwards was | elected chairman. A few committees were appointed, after which the meeting ad- journed. Benator Goucher was sadly dis- appointed because the Democrats would not turn out to the meeting. —_— . SACRAMENIO ROGUES FALL OUT. Barney Carroll Says He Perjured Him- self to Save Callendine and Baker. SACRAMENTO, CaL., July 17.—Day by day the props relied upon by Callendine and Baker, who are waiting trial for the robbery of the electric street railway com- pany’s barn on last Christmas evening, are being knocked away, and now that all of the leading attorneys of the city have absolutely refused to -nemgt their rescue from State prison it would seem that their fate is sealed, and that within a few weeks they will be wearing the stripes of infamy. During the first trial of Callendine, which resulted in a disagreement of the Jury, one of his strongest witnesses was a man named Burney Carroll, who in- habited a fishing-scow on the river, and who swore positively that he had met Calendine on one of the most frequented streets of the city at the very hour in which he was accused of having been present at the robbery of the streetcar company’s barn. Later it was discovered that Carroll had in his possession & quan- tity of stolen goods, and since then he has been an inmate of the County Jail here, The official screws have been lx.prlhd to such an extent that he, becoming alarmed, concluded to make a clean breast of the matter. He sent for District Attorney Ryan and acknowledgea that his story of having met Callendine on the night of the rob- bery was a falsehood, manufastured from whole cloth, and that the stolen goods found in his possession had been procured from Mrs. Cailendine and were the fruits of former robberies of her husband, which, being secreted on her prewises, she feared would be discovered b; thlmpouu and place her own liberty in ;-opl ) This confession created considerable ex- citement in the elt{ and will evidently remove the last chance of saving the accused man from the penitentiary. Mill Valley’s Fete To-Night. MILL VALLEY, CaL., July 17.—Every- thing is ready for the grand illumination to-morrow night. Allday long the resi- dents have been working hard to complete the arrangements. The first *Night in Mill Valley” promises to be one o great moment. All the groves will be britliantly l‘lrhud as well as the hilltops. The old ill Grove is the centar around which all the gayety will revolve. There a great stage has been erected and a first-cl v:lnduanl- show will be given. Innumer- able Chinese and Ji terns light up the acene. roeoe lanterns will WOMEN'S DAY AT PACIFIC GROVE, Chautauqua Exercises Con- ducted Wholly by Ladies. QUESTION-BOX QUERIES “The New Man” Interestingly Discussed by Rev. Anna H. Shaw. FEMININE POLITICAL IDEAS. Progress of the Suffrage Movement as Outlined by Miss Susan B. Antbony. PACIFIC GROVE, Cav., July 17.—To- day was women’s day at the Chautauqua Assembly. The exurcises were altogether in their hands and they used the oppor- tunity to specially discuss the amendment issue. Miss Busan B. Anthony, the vet eran of suffrage reform, and Miss Shaw, her logical successor, were the principal speakers. The women had an open forum this morning and the usual classes met at 9 o’clock but were dismissed at 11, the ap- pointed hour for Rev. Anna Shaw to open the “question-box.”” This box contained every conceivable question against woman's suffrage. The meeting at 11 o’clock was called to order by Mrs. A, A. Bargent, president of the State Suffrage Association. Miss Susan B. Anthony was elected president of the day. Rev. Anna H. Shaw presided over the question-box and answered with great keenness and wit the many objections against suffrage. These discussions con- sumed the whole morning session. At 2 p. M. the Sunday-school normal work was taken up, and at 3 o'clock Miss Busan B. Anthony made an address, di- recting her speech more particularly to the amendment question. She contrasted the present suffrage movement with the one some time since, and prophesied a victory for the amendment clause in this State. Shesaid: *Now 1s the opportune hour to secure our rights, for we will not have another opportunity in the next thirty years.” Miss Anthony was followed by Mrs. Sarah B. Cooper, whose subject was, “Why 1 Am for Woman Suffrage.”” She gave her many hearers cogent reasons for her late alliance with the suffrage cause. Miss Shaw then resumed the query-box. One quite prominent question in relation to the possible attitude of women on the silver question, in case they secured the ballot, was answered at length, and was interestingly disposed of. Miss Shaw said the trouble with most women is they never have enough money to make silver a problem. She also stated she did not ex- pect that all women would be more intel- ligent on the silver and tariff questions than men en masse, but she thought that woman’s greatest influence in politics would be in local affairs. The grandest ! result of their ballot would be to take all local and municipal affairs out of politics. She closed by saying: ‘‘My greatest en- deavors will be in the direction of good government and good morals.” Practical results ot woman's suffrage in Wyoming and Colorado had been in this direction, she said. Miss Shaw delivered a lecture to-night on the fate of the Republic, one of the principal subjects of the lecture being “The New Man.”” It wasamusing as well as interesting to hear her discuss him. Her idea was all the more amusing for the reason that a grave mistake had been made in the large posters tacked up around town announcing ““Mrs.” Anna H. Shaw as one of the principal lecturers of woman’s day. To-morrow wilk be field day, all classes will be suspended and a general reception will be in order. A picnic will be held at Moss Beach in the morning and exercises and sports in the afternoon. Frank Lin- coln, the humorist, will speak at Assembly Hall in the evening. THE CAPAY ELOPEMENT, Trouble Is Looked For From the Father of the Runaway Girl. A Neighbor Who Is Said to Have Plann:d the Affair Is Severely Censured. WOODLAND, Oan, July 17 — Fred Mast, uncle of Pearl Goodnow, who eloped with N. K. Nickell, from Capay, last week, and ‘was afterward’ married on the high seas by Oaptain Park of the yacht Belve- dere, came in from his ranch this morn- ing and gave a correct report of the elopement. In conversation with a OArL reporter he said the girl was scarcely 16 years of age and Niekell was past 45, and not 25, as stated in the different San Francisco papers. He said the mother bitterly opposed the match and is almost heart- broken over the elopement. Mr. Goodnow, father of the runaway girl, was at Lion Mountain at the time of the elopement and has not yet re. turned, but he has been advised by letter and may return at any time. Mrs. Goodnow has sent word to the couple not to return to her home, for it is feured that if they do there will be trouble, The elder Gooanow is known to be very hot-headed and will shoot in & minute, Nickell, when he_leit, took a rifle with him and left it at 8 Woodland gunstore to be repaired. Miss Goodnow told her mother she was goine to Woodland t visit her aunt, lrs.“J. R. Jacobs, = e It is said that Frank Curray assisted the couple in making their escape and he is b.m*.bl-m-d by the entire neighborhood for his conduct. Nickell was employed by Goodnow for five years and was looked upon as one of the family, The father of Nickell came to town to- day and left word at the livery-stable for them not to to Capay, but to come to his place, as he was afraid that old man Goodnow would shoot bim on sight. Before Nickell left he sold all this ear’s orop of grain and only left a few old lm.- on the place, The return of the couple is locked for- ward to rather anxiously,and it is feared that if they return and go to the Good- now farm, as they they would, Yolo Coun&y will have another tragedy to record. e WOODLAND NATIVES Give a Bahquet at Their Installation of Officers. ‘WOODLAND, CaL., July 17.—Woodland Parlor No. 30, N. 8.
