4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1896. MAJOR McKINLEY MAKES A SPEECH. Addresses a Multitude at Cleveland’s Centennial Celebration. WILDEST ENTHUSIASM. Happy Expressions Repeatedly Drowned in the Popular Tumult. A VERITABLE RED-LETTER DAY President Cleveland Congratulates Ohio's Beautiful City—John D. Rockefeller’s Gift, CLEVELAND, Oxro, July 22.—The cele- bration of the founding of Cleveland 100 years ago began at midnight by a centen- nial salute of 100 guns, which was re- enforced by the screeching of steam whistles, the ringing of bells and the ex- plosion of fireworks. The National salute was fired at half-past 5, and the citizens of Cleveland, as well as 40,000 strangers within its gates, gave up all thought of slumber and turned out to celebrate. The speech - making programme was elaborate. The exercises took place in the great armory, where the recent Methodist conference was held. Mayor McKisson delivered an address of welcome, and after some remarks by James H. Hoyt, Senator Joseph R. Hawley of Connecticut was ia- troduced. He delivered the oration of the day. Ex-Governor McKinley was one of the distinguished guests and occupied a front seat on the platform during the exercises. President Cleveland sent the following message, which was read by James H. Hoyt: 1 congratulate the citizens of Cleveland upon the close of her first centennial and wish it may be only the beginning of her greatness and prosperity. The dispatch was warmly applauded. A centennial ode, written for the oeca- sion by Colonel J. J. Platt, was 1ead, and then Governor Coffin of Connecticut spoke briefly in a historical vein. J. G. W, Cowles of Cleveland announced that John D. Rockefeller authorized him io say that he offered as a gift to the people of Cleveland 276 acres of land for park purposes, valued at more than $600,000. The gift was accepted, and the park will bear Rockefeller's name. The announcement of this handsome gift was enthusiastically cheered. Governor Bushnell made a short speech of welcome to the Connecticut and other Eastern guests and was followed by Major McKinley. He was greeted with a tumnl- tuous outburst of applanse. Mr. Hoyt introduced him as the next President. Major McKinley said in part: Mr. President and my fellow-citisens: The people of Cleveland do well to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of their great and beautiful eity. On this day we pause for a retrospect. Our history is beginning to have age: Cleveland is 100 years old to-day. Its original builders are long since gone, and their mighty struggles are passing from indi- vidual recollection into the field of tradition 2nd history. Anniversaries like this increase our pride of the men who wrought so excellently in spite of the trial d hardships from which the present generation would intuitively shrink. The observation of an anniversary lixe this, seriously and with reflection, does all who are associated with it or come within its influence positive good. It weids the present and past and emphasizes the ties of home and family, and country. It encourages civic pride end appeals to the highest and best sentiments of our hearts and lives. Major McKinley then reviewed Cleve- land statistically and dwelt with pride on her achievements, He spoke feelingly of the pioneers who founded the city 100 years ago, and in closing, said: This work bears the impress of the sturdy manhood of the ploneer who feared God and loved liberty. [Applause.] He stand: the representativeos a great age and great civiliza- tion, “the sturdiest onk in the great forest of mankind [Applause.] Like the peak which first catches the morning light s the grand monarch of the hills, 8o the sturdy pioneer who struck the first blow for freedom is the grand monarch of our civilization. ([Great Applause.] Let me commend to you their precious ex- ample. It is richer than titles or royalty. [Applause.] God grant that the fires of liberty which they kindied, that the respect for lawana order which they inculcated, that the freedom of conscience and religious liberty which they taught, and which found expression in the constitution of the United States, that the publie eredit and honor which they established “‘as & most important source of our strength and security,” that the fervent and self-sacri- ficing devotion to our splendid free institu. tions which were ever the animation and con- trolling purposes of their natures, be as ever dear to the peopleof thisand succeeding gener- ations as they were to them. [Applause.] After the exercises at thy armory a re- ception was given Major McKinley at the Holtenden Hotel by the Loyal Legion. About 2:30 o’clock an imposing military and civic parade got under way, and en- tertained the Cleveland people and their visitors the rest of the afternoon. Governor McKinley rode in a carriage near the head of the prosession, and for him it wasa trinmphal procession through the streets of Cleveland. The whole cele- bration seemed suddenly turned into a ‘monster, earnest and tremendously en- thusiastic McKinley demonstration, The ringing music of lusty cheers and cordial applause did not die out from the moment Major McKinley stepped into his carriage until he drove away at dusk to meeta dinner engagement. To-night there was a grand illuminated ageant, with spectacular representations rating the first century of Cleveland’s devetopraent. Scores of floats, unique in design and beautiful in conception, were in line, and “Progress” was the central idea of the pageant. FEX-SENATOR JONES Is DEAD. Carser of the Second Uldest Em-Membder of the Upper House. DUBUQUE, Iowa, July 22.—General Georze W. Jones, who was the oldest living ex-United States Senator, except Bradbury of Maine, died to-night. He was born in Vincennes, Ind., April 12, 1804, and was the son of John Rice Jones, a native of Wales, and author of the onginal draft of the Missouri constitution. General Jones, in 1821, entered Transylva- nis University, and while there served as sergeant on General Jackson’s bodyguard, ln? was one of a company which escorted Lafeyette across Kentucky, Jefferson | Davis was his classmate and Henry Clay his guardian, In 1827 he moved from Genevieve, Mo., to Binsinwa Mound, Wis., opposite Du- buque, where he engaged in mining and smelting. He served in the Black Hawk War as aide-de-camp on the staff of Gen- eral Dodge, and in 1834 was chosen dele- gate to Congress from the Northwest ter- ritory of Michigan, which then extended to the Pacific Coast. He secured the crea- tion of the Territory of Wisconsin and then represented both in Congress, but was defeated for re-election on account of his participation as second in the Cilley- Graves duel. When the State of Iowa was created he was'chosen Senator. At the close of his second term President Buchanan ap- pointed nim Minister to the United States of Colombia. Sec-etary Seward in 1861 recalled him and imprisoned him at Fort Lafayette, N. Y., for writing an alleged seditious letter to Jefferson Davis. April 4, 1894, the Iowa Legislature in joint as- sembly celebrated his ninetieth birthday. Archbishop Hennessy will conduct the funeral. L OF INTEREST TO THE COAST.

Blow at the Southern Pacific Com- pany in Which Chicago Capital Is Enlisted. CHICAGO, Irn., July 22.—A local paper says: The publication of the negotiations between President J. J. Hill of the Great Northern Railway and Mr, Masujima of Tokio for a steamship line between Puget Sound and Japan has developed the fact that Chicago men already have practically tompleted arrangements for such a line of steamers, which it is expected will give them almost complete control of the busi- ness between the United Btates and the Orient. In the venture of the Chicago men it is understood that the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Compuny has an inter- est, and that the company is ready, if necessary, to break its alliance with the Southern Pacific Railway Company and the Huntington interests in order to carry out the new scheme. The value of trade with the Orient is appreciated fully by all the transportation and com- mercial interests of the country, and there is no fear that there will not be traffic enough to make the new line profitable. an Diego is the present terminus of the Santa Fe road, and if it could carry freight to the docks of a trans- Pacific steamship company there, its ton- nage would be increased vastly. President Rlvléy of the Santa Fe road was seen in his office. “Itis true,” he said, “that we have had several propositions under consideration looking toward the establishment of a steamship line from our terminus to Japan, but the company has not under- taken the enterprise. The establishment of our line will be by private irndividuals who are friendly to the Santa Fe road.” Mr. Stackpole leit last night over the Chicago ancf Northwestern Railway for Ban Francisco, where he will go direct to Yokohama. He said before leaving' that he had faith in the success of the schem and believed the line will be started in the near future, Sl Rt SAN DIEGO’S OFFER. Liveral Inducemoents to Seoure the New Steamship Line. SAN DIEGO, Car., July 22,—John C. Fisher, Philip Morse, H. B. Keeler and John- E. Boal, the committee appointed by the Chamber of Commerce to meet Sho Nemoto and T. Kusakado, the representa- tives of the Japanese Government now investigating commerce and industry on this coast, left this afternoon for Los An- geles. They will meet the Japanese there to-morrow morning and accompany them to this city. General Manager K. H. ‘Wade of the Bouthern California Railroad is in the city and will remain over to in- terview the visitors. Interested parties are now formulating & proposition to present to the Japanese representatives when they arrive. It is believed the offer will consist of free wharfage, free pilotage and reduced port charges, all the water front needed for warenouses, etc., and 10,000 acres of land in Lower California suitable for coloniza- tion purposes. > The Santa Fe Railroad Company is be- lieved to have a thorough understanding with the Japanese concerning rates for the shipment of .cotton_from Texas and other Boutbern points. The Japanese will re- ceive a flattering offer from the Tepustete Iron Compnnay. controlling the immense iron fields at San Isidro, Lower California. These fields are on the coast and the ore may be brought here by lighters for ship- ment or may be loaded directly upon steamers at the mines. -As iron isone of the principal items required by Ja; this offer is expected to have great weight in bringing the line to San Diego. The iron is of the finest quality, as has been proven by tests ut Birmifham, Pitts- burg and other centers. 1if the iron proves of the requisite quality for steel-making it is probable that it will be shipped in great }\nmmes for the building up of the new apanese navy. hen the Japanese visitors arrive to- morrow they will be treated to an excur- sion on the bay, escorted bg thirty of the most prominent citizens of Sar Diego. A public reception will be tendered in the evening at the Chamber of Commerce. e eyt TO FREVENT GOLD EXPORTS, New York Bankers Go Into Committes on Ways and Means. NEW YORK, N.

AID FOR OUR SHIPPING Discriminating Duties Declared to Be Necessary to the Industry. FACTS TO INTEREST VOTERS. An Appeal by the Merchant Marine Association, of Which He Is President. LO8 ANGELES, Car., July 22.—The State League of Republican Olubs is in receipt of the tollowing communication under date of June 30 from the American Merchant Marine Association, of which Arthur Sewall, Democratic nominee for Vice-President, of Maine is president and A. R. 8mith of New York is secretary: The Republican National Convention adopt- ed a plank on the 18th ult. (copy inclosed), the principles of which had received the in- dorsement of fourteen Republican State con- ventions, and the ob?eclof which is to restore to American-built ships the carrying of & com- merce that employs millions of tons of lhlgl and pays about $250,000,000 annually to the carriers. I feel sure that your league will be in full accord with the objects of this associa- tion, as is the great party for which you labor. * * * I trust that you may be dis- sed to place the maiter inclosed ‘and this Potee tiatoes your lesgue at its next meeting, and if you W[vll advise me of any action taken or suggest anything that I maydo to further the fuller understanding of your people as to the neeessities of ship protection I shall be obliged. Inclosed with this leiter is a copy of the following: Ship protection plank in the Massachusetts Re! n%l can State pf.uom, adopted March 27, 18! We have always given protection to our ship- builders. In late years we have neglected to Emtect our ship-owners. We believe the time as come to return to the poliey of Washing- ton and Hamilton, which, by discriminatin, duties in favor of American bottoms, secure 90 per cent of our carrying trade to American ships, and which, if now restored, would again Tevive our lhl‘pdplng and cause American freights to be paid to Americans. In favor of which the Marine Associa- tion, of which Mr. Sewall is president, makes the following brief argument: It is sound Republican protective doctrine. It puts money into the National Treasury, in. stead of t.lkinlg money out, as bounties and subsidies do. It creates a preference for Amer- ican ships in the carrying of American com- merce. It was in force for nearly forty years— from the beginnlnf of our Government down to 1828—during all of which time an average of 90 per cent of American foreign commerce was carried in American ships. The first actof the First Congress in 1789 provided, in part, for this form of ship protec- tion. Subsequent acts of thatand succeeding ngresses strengthened and extended the policy. Ship protection was abandoned, be- cause it was no longer thought necessary, and from that time the proportion of carriage of Ametican commerce in American ships has declined, until to-day but 11 7-10 per cent of American commerce is carried in American ships. Five million tons of ships are employed in carrying American foreign commerce, less than 750,000 tons of which are American. Four hundred million dollars would be 'Kfl“ in American shipyards building the ships necessary to carry American commerce if the §°"°y advoeated in the Massachusetts-New ersey plank is adopted by the United States. Three hundred milijon dollars now annu- ally sent abroad to pay for the carriage of American commerce, passengers and mails wounld be reteined in the United States if American ships did the work. Four billion five hundred million dollars, it has been esti- mated by the most competent experts, has been sent abroad during the past thirty years to pay for the carriage of American commerce, Dpassengers, mail, etc. The weakness of the United States is only apparent upon the seas ot the world; the adoption of this policy would strengthen the Nation where its one weakness resent exists. nator Elkins of West Virginia has intro- duced a bill in the Senate and Mr. New York in the House &wfinosing to tax im- ?ons ip foreign ships 10 per cent more than imports in American ships are taxed. It is a policy that provides for the same pro- tection for American ships that is now pro- vided for American msanufactures, to .wit: Discrimination against foreign ships, just s we discriminate against foreign manufactures by a higher duty upon the foreign articles, be they ships or products of foreign nations. The United States navy is weak because Americans are not to be had to man our warships. The adoption of this policy would provide a resource for the manning of the navy sufficient to provide the men for the Nation’s protection, if ever assailed by a foreign power. Accompanying this is a copy of the fol- lowing: Shlpxmuefion plank adopted by the Repub- lican National Convention at St. Louis, Mo., June 18, 1896: licy We favor restoring the early American of discriminating dutles for the npbnlld?:[ of our merchant marine and the protection of our shipping in the foreign carrying trade, so that merican ships—the product of the American labor employed in American shipyards, salling uader the rtars and stripes, and manned, offi- cered and owned by Americans—may regain the carrying of our foreign commerce. Explanatory of this strong and pat: statement is tbe Jollowing bit of circulated by Mr. Sewall's organization: Shly—lmnm%x under Democraticjand Repub- lican rule: The Democratic Commissioner of Navigation’s last _report—that for the fiscal }'elr ending in 1895—shows somé rather start- ing figures of ship-building conditions under Democratic and Republican rule, which it is worth while here recording. uring the -dmlnhunfnn of Garfield and Arthur, preceding the first administration of Grover Cleveland, the total tonuage of all ves- sels built in the United States amounted to 1,053,672. During Mr. Cleveland’s first term the tonnage of all vessels built aggregated but tons, & decrease of 41 per cent. the administration of H“l:\mn Harrison the tonnage of all vessels built in the United States rose again to 1,094,192, being an increase in the amount of constraction over that built under Grover Cleveland’s adminis- tration of 74 per cent. During the firsi three years of Grover Cleveland's second adminis- tration the vessels built in the United States aggregated 454,436 tons, as compared wi constraction of 804,590 hndes T Srst thres years of Benjamin Harrison's administration, or a fall since tne B.egubl!cml lost control of otic history the Government of 49 per cent. It is not difficult to understand from these 1 why it is that & lsrge mnjorny. in fact allof the ship-builaers and ship-owners of the country, strongly Republican. Thaus it is that the ablest and mort luctd arguments for our cause come from the Ieaders of the opposition. Subjoined to this history of American shipping is this bit of patriotic speculation, w;hh. as later eventa have shown, is most pre- ::npuvo considering the subject referred Whether the Democratic party can duced to favor the policy which Th, - e Bmahietnl Bt irst esf N el e only that has ever beem successful in “&ohcz American ships the carriage of American commerce, i8 not at rrfiunt known. If the Democrats would join the Republicans and re- store and meintsin that po.icy, in the same non-partisan and unanimous manner that it was a hundred years ago, ils permanence would be assured, it would continuously em- ploy hundreds of thousands of skilled work- men {2 American shipyards and would cause the retention in the United States of hundreds of millions of dollars annually sent abroad in 10 pay ships for carrying Ameri. can commerce. The Democralic convention has come in heving' and gone, and in the mad scramble to in- culcate seditious and anarchistic dogmas in its platform the great shipping and commercial interests of the Nation were either forgotten or ignored. . Sewall can, possibly, explain it all to the Ameri- can Merchant Marine Association, but the voters of California know that only Re- publican success means the upbuilding of American commerce, The league takes pleasure in placing this matter before its members and befors the voters of the State. Very respectfully, A. W. RINNEY, President. GEORGE Fraxcis, Secretary. —_— - LOS ANGELES ELOPEMENT. 4 Divorce Suit Followed by a Runaway Marriage.

I think Bryan will be the next President of the United States. I have given this money question extensive study. There is ~certainly something wrong. It is necessary that the common people of the country, who are mortgaged up to their necks, snhould have some re- lief. Ican’t see how they are going to get | it with McKinley and zofd.

Bo far as I have studied the question I have not been able to satisfy myselt on that point. But, as I said be- fo{‘e, 1 do believe it will give us temporary relier.” “Why temporary relief?"’ ““Well, when a man brings a thing upon himselt he is inclined o take to it very kindly and do all he can to satisfy himseif that it is all right. Now the common peo- | ple of this country want free silver. They | are going to vote for it, and if it carries they will take very kindlv to it and will believe that it is going to ;be their savior. | There is no doubt in my mind but that | the common people propose to vote for free silyer. When I say the common peo- ple, 1 do not mean that they are made up of thebankers and other corporation men, but you come down in California and talk | to the rank and file, talk to the people of 4 the beautiful 8an Joaquin Valley, and you | will soon satisf; what I'say is true.

EUREKA, Can, July 22.—The Daily Humbolds Standard, a newspaper which bas championed the Democratic cause since its organization, to-day for mally went over to gold and McKinley. After criticizing the revolutionary actions of the Chicago convention and its disregard for the old tenets of the party the Standard’s editor, J. F. Thompson, denounces the Posnlmie tendencies of the Democracy and outlines his position in the following terms: “If meeting the Populists more than balf way is not enough the Standard will maintain_a little of its self-respect and support McKinley. It would rather go down to defeat championing an honest cause than be carried to victory on the crest of a wave of popular frenzy created by dem‘g’:sual who will cheat people with deba: money, uphold abetters of anarchy ana ery down all that stands for honest American manhood. Vietory won by such means could not challenge the re- spect of intelligent men. It would bring overwhelming disaster and loss upon the country and political annihilation to the conglomeration of parties that shouid achieve it. The sense of the Ameri- can people will see to it that such coali- tion shall not take the reins of govern- ment during the present century.’” —_—— NO DIIIAJUD FOR WOOL.
