THE RIGHT TO VOTE. e Colored Folks Think That It Should Be Given to the Women. The colored women are just as clamor- ous for political rights as their white sis- ters. There was a gathering. of women suffragists last night in the Third Baptist (colored) Church on Powell street. Seated upon the platform were: Mrs, Rice, the chairman, Miss Susan B. Anthony, Mrs. Naom: Anderson, the colored orator of Kansas, and Mrs. A. A. | Sargent. After a prayer by the pastor, the Rev. George E. Duncan, the president intro- duced Mrs. Arderson. *“It takes more ihan one thing,” sbe said, ‘‘to make an excellent woman. Itistruelam a greal lady, for I weigh even more than the cele- brated Susan B. Anihony. s “In the cblored people I am specially interested and I entreat you to vote for the pending constitutional amendment and so secure to women the right to vote. The equabty of women means also the equality of men. For a ldng time the frunchise was denied to colored men and now we ask youbrl:dsog:‘l;e the same privi- lege to your col sisters.”” Miss Anthony and Mrs. Sargent followed in brief yet vigorous addresses, and then, “on motion of the Res. Dr. Duncan, it was resolved that the sentiment of the as- sembly was in favor of the adoption of the constitutional amendment giving to women the right to vote. ———————— New Fruit Company.

PEARS A DRUG IN THE MARKET, The Jackson-Street Wharf Crowded With the Luscious Fruit. NO BUYERS IN SIGHT. Trouble on the American Ship Sterling Over the Food Served at Port Costa. THE CREW LEFT HER IN A BODY Captain Johnson Left the Bark Enoch Talbot at Ventura Because of a Love Affair. Pears are & drug on the market and Jackson-street wharf is crowded with them. The canneries do not want them, and as there is no outside market many of them will remain on the wharf until they rot or are given away, as several loads of onions were last week. Besides the pears there are large quanti- ties of potatoes lying around, and if some of the accumulations are not carted away soon the river steamers will have no place on which to discharge their cargoes. Nearly all the fruit is from the Sacra- mento Valley, but the Napa City and Zin- fandel also bring considerable from Napa. The peach crop is light this year, so there is no surplus of that fruit, but pears are | more abundant than usual, and in conse- quence the supply far exceeds the de- mand. Every river steamer that gets in during the day brings a load and the piles on the wharf are constantly increasing. A dozen teamsters are Lauling the fruit| away all day, but they cannot reduce the su_fply. he British ships Lauriston, eighty- three days from Newcastle, Australia, and Queen Elizabeth, sixty days from Hong- kong, arrived in port yesterday. Both masters report light and baffling winds throughout the entire passage. Both ves- sels made unusually long passages. The Lauriston is loaded and the Queen Elza- beth has a general cargo of Chinese mer- chandise. The gasoline schooner Checto is unload- ing a gnantity ot wreckage from the Co- lombia at Howard 3. Among it is a piano, two cases of machinery, wire, pois and pans, lagies’ underclothing and about a dozen sets of Waverly novels. Everything | was ruined, and, with the exception of the | machinery, will probably not bring enough | at auction to pay expenses. As soon as| she is discharged the Checto will go back | for another load. The bulwarks of the British ship Cedar- bank, which were damaged during a storm off Cape Horn, were being repaired yes- terday. The vessel seems to be unfortu- nate on her runs to San Francisco. On the last occasion she arrived :n port with her cargo of coal on fire. Captain Davis of the American ship Sterling is having trouble with his crew. While she was loading st Port Costa the | men say they were only half fed, and they | assert that on Saturday night and yester- day morning they got nothing to eat at all, as the vessel was in the stream and there was no cook aboard. When it came along toward noon the men’s appetites would not be gainsaid, so the mate, car- penter and three sailors—all the crew that was aboard—packed up their belongings and came ashore. The carpenter and men are very bitter against the|skipper and do not mince matters when talcing about him. They predict that if ne treats his new crew in the manner he treated them there will be a muting before the vessel reachee Liverpool. Soon after the Sterling arrived here from New York she was sold to the Alaska Packers’ Association and Captain Weldon was succeeded by Captain Dayis. The former was a uni- versal favorite, but Davis was not so well liked. Masny of the men left the ship and were paid o ‘When, therefore, she went 1o Port Costa there was only a small com- plement left and the three sailors had to take turns at doing the work of a watch- man.. The plans of the whaling excursion have been changed. It willnotleave San Fran- cisco until August 22 next, and the Pacific Coast steamship Queen will go out with the Fearless, instead of the steam schooner Albion. Instead of anchoring in Drake’s Bay at night the party will make its head- quarters at_Santa Cruz.

Tke oil bark Enoch Talbot arrived from Venturs yesterday in tow of the tug Res- cue. The crude material was wanted badly at the refinery, so it was thought best to send a tug after tne vessel. Cap- tain Johnson did not come up on the ves- sel. He created a sensation in Los | Angeles by taking to sea with him a young actress, who was formerly at the Orpheum, as his wife. This gave rise to a great deal of talk, and when the vessel left Ventura Johnson quietly walked ashore and Cap- tain Merriman took command. Sodiom Asano, the representative of the Japanese Steamship Company now seek- ing a terminus in this country, will be en- | tertained by the Chamber of%ommeme on | his retarn from Portland. Everything | vossible will be done to secure the line of | steamers for San Francisco. i * Some time ago it was stated in THE CALL that there was no school of navigation in San Francisco since the deatn of Captain McNevin. This was a grea:t mistake, as the well-known old master’s two sons | hate conducted a most successful _school ever since their father’s death. During the past month the following have gradu- ated and received certificates from the United States lnspectors of Hulls and | Boilers: As master and pilot—Al- fred Johnson, Jacob Lossions and | Warner; as mate—C. J. Hol- land, E. T. Marshall, John D. Peyster Down, Walter C. Aast and Joseph M. Howarth. To Walter C. Aust, Ira Nor- dych and John Spie certificates of com- petency in navigation and seamanship were issued by the Chamber of Commerce. The Divorce Courts. Judge Hebbard yesterday granted William Schneider & divorce from Mary M. Schneider, because of the latter’s desertion and infidelity. The parties were married in Oakland in 1892 and have no children. Ernestine Brackett was o legally separated from Frank O. Brackett, the Crocker building real estate agent, by Ji Hebbard. Extreme cruelty was the reason for the di- Yt was elatmed that Brackett persecuted his because sh in . °|my o1 'but ‘which sh did not T her, but w! she whichega.“ ived from her m . Mrs. Brackett resumes her Hackett. that the $100 sent by her was not sufficient to cover all the expenses. He assured the her brother, in fact had become so much attached to him that he had kept the “‘poor boy”’ at his private house instead of sending him to the hospital. Mason wound up by requesting the stm of $65. But the sister was not so easily auped. She was anxious to help her brother if he needed, but she wanted to be sure on that point. Accordingly Miss Christie wrote the Postmaster at Truckee for inforration about “‘Sheriff Mason,” and also her brother. This little precaution brought about the downfall of Mason. Itdeveloyed, of course, that Mason held no official po- sition in Nevada County, and, in fact, was | hardly known there. The matter was at once turned over to Inspector Munro, and after several weeks he succeeded in tracing Mason to Colusa. In the meantime he also found Everett Christie, the “injurea’” son snd brother. He has been in San Francisco for two years, and is now work- ing as cook at Swanberg’s oyster-house. | One of the peculiar phases of the case is | that Christie does not know Mason, at least under that name. He will be at In- | spector Munro’s office to-day to get a good | square look at the r an who knows enough | of his family to be able to perpetrate such | a fraud. EDWARD WEIR AGAIN. The Insane Peddler Who Pesters Young Ladies With His Love-Letters Once More Arrested. Edward Weir. a tea peddler, is at his old | tricks again of annoying a young lady by | his endearing letters. A year ago he made life unendurable to | Everett Christie, the Man Edward Mason Claimed to Have Nursed Through a Long Iliness, the Resul t of a Railroad Accident. son of Truckee, but temporarily claiming Colusa as his home, under the ban of the Government. He is charged with using the mails for fraudulent purposes and by | order of Inspector-in-charge Munro was errested yesterday. He will be brought from Colusa to-day by a United States deputy marshal. The evidence in the possession of Mr. Munro proves Mason to be a very smooth citizen, thoug: he was a little over-confi- dent, as the after resuits prove. In April last Mason, who was then liv- ing at Truckee, wrote to Mrs. Margarett Christie of Warham, Mass,, stating that ber son, Everett Christi, had been seriously injured in a railway accident. One ankle 'was broken and both wrists fractured and to the latter affliction was due the son’s inability to write. Mason assured Mrs. Christie that her son was doing very well under his care and further that the boy ‘was most anxious to get home. The letter wound up by requesting that $100 be sent at once to Mason and he would see the son safeiy aboard the cars going to Boston town. The writer claimed to be Sheriff of Nevada County, requesting, however, that all letters be sent to “plain James Mason, Truckee, Cal.”” In time the money reached Mason, who lost no time in lesving Truckee, he taking with bim a woman known in that section of the country as Ella Raymond. To Colusa the pair journeyed and for a time rolled very high. Atter a few days, how- ever, Mason’s coin began to run low and he bethought himself of ways and means to replenish his purse. He wrote to Miss Hattie M. Cristie of Boston repeating the old story of the railroad accident. He sup- posed that she had been informed by her mother at Warham of the “sad affair,” winding up with the concluding statement | Miss Denicke of Sacramento and Mason | streets, by sending her loving epistles ard | then threatening to kill her.

PROMISES NOT EKEPT. Claimed That Orders Were to Be Given to Stop the Cars. CHIEF CROWLEY'S DEFENSE He Denies Emphatica'ly That Any- thing Was Said to Him About Stopping the Cars. An angry feeling pervades the ranks of the bicyclists who took part in Saturday night’s parade over whatthey consid-r | the unfair treatment accorded them . | the Market-street Cable Company and the police. The managers of the demonstration say that amole preparations had been made for a clear route and 2n uninterrupted pa- rade, but the contrary was the result. They were neglected by the police, run into by the cable and electric cars and an- noyed by hoodlums, so that at times there was confusion in their ranks and the pa- rade had to be broken up before the ead of the march down town. H. F. Wynne, who has taken a promi- nent part in the movement for good roads since 1ts inception, said yesterday that he went to Manager Vining of the Market. street Cable Company and secured s promise that the cats would be stopped along the route if the Chief of Police would give orders to his men to see that the ,Eromise was kept. He went to Chief rowley and the Chief informed him that Manager Vining’s orders would be carried out by the police. He said that Chief Crowley neglected to give orders to his men to stop the cars. Chief Crowley was seen last might, and he gave an emphatic denial to the state- ment that Mr, eayums or any one else had at any time asked him to see that the cars were stopped during the parade, or men- tioned 10 him anything about Manager Vining giving a promise to that effect. **About two weeks ago,’* said the Chief, *‘a gentleman called upon me and asked that a platoon of police in uniform, mounted on_bicycles, snould be assigned to head the parade. I told him frankly that Idid not favor the proposition, as I looked upon it simply as an advertising scheme on the part of the manufacturers of bicycles. I promised, however, to lay the matter before the Commissioners at their next meeting. “The meeting was heid on Wednesday night, July 15, and I laid the matter before them. They declined to accede to the re- quest, believing as I did that it was simply an adyertising scheme. ““Two gentlemen called upon me the day after the meeting and I told them of the decision of the Commissioners, but prom- ised to have a platoon of mounted police- men at the head of the procession. I aliso promised to have men along the line of the ‘procession gnd three or four men at Eighth and Folsom streets, which they had re- quested. *“That was all that took place between myself and the representatives of the demonstration. If any one says that any- thing was said to me about stopping the cars during the procession, he says what is absolutely untrue. The word cars was never mentioned, of that I am certain. If any one had told me that Manager Vining had promised to stop the cers I would have been only téo happy to have given orders to my men to see that it was kept, as it would Lvn made things much euge.r for the police. “It hasal s been the custom of per- sons in charge of a parade to bring a promise from the manager of the cable company to me and I havealways seen that het cars were stopped.” But in the present case nothing of the kind was done. I have no power to stop the cars without orders from the cable company. *“The cars are always stopped during the paraaes on Decorationday and the Fourth of July, but for other parades special per- mission has to be asked from the com- v"“‘l"he bicyclists may complain that there were not sufficient ice along the route, but I did the best I could under the cir- cumstances. My experience of these night as made me careful not to leave the whole City unprotected against the depredations of thieves and burglars. People have left their houses to go downtown and see a-procession, and as nearly the whole police force was there also the resuit was that numerous com- plaints came in of houses having been broken into. That taught me'a lesson. “I had as many men along the line of route as I could spare with safety to the City, and they did tue best they could. Abcut four- of the crowd was com- of women and children, and the police could not be expected to club them or use unnecessary force. The police did they could to subdue the hoodlum ele- ment and arrested tnree or four of them. “Just let nahny.t.hni! tht:;:ln chl::.t: of the rnde ad chosen, as they have done, the north side.of °|°f.m street instead of the south, the trouble at The Emporium would not have occurred, as they would not have been compeiled to cross the cartracks.” SLENT BURELIRS N THE MISSIO The Residence of Jefferson G. James Ran- sacked. NO NOISE WAS HEARD. While the Family Slept Dia- mends and Other Articles Were Stolen. ENTERED BY A REAR WINDOW The Police’ Have Been Notified, but So Far There Is No Clew to the Midnight Visitors. Ex-Supervisor Jefferson G. James is mourning tbe loss of his diamond studs | ana other articles of the value of about $1000 and he is willing (0 pay $250 for their return and to ask no questions. ‘While he and his family were sound asleep Sunday morning visitors called at the house, 2131 Howard street, and finding one of the windows in the rear unfastened, they entered by that means so as not to disturb the sleepers by ringing the front doorbell. They went through the dining-room into the hallway and ascended to the sleeping apartments upstairs. From alil appearances they had familiarized them- selves with the interior of the house. | Mr. and Mrs. James slept in a large | double bedroom facing Howard street and | Mr. and Mrs. Walker C. Graves in a large | room in the rear. Mrs. James was the first to discover that | strangers had been in the bouse during | the night. She arose about 6 o’clock Sun- | day morning and found, to her astonish- ment, everything in the room in confus- | ion. Bureau drawers had been drawn out and their contents dumped upon the floor. Her diamonds, worth over $1000, were kept in a chest of drawers that stood | in a corner near the bed, and to her joy | she found that they had escaped the ob- | servation of the midnight visitors. They | were in the bottom drawer and evidently | by chance all the drawers had been care- | fully examined except the bottom one. | Mrs. James then awakened her hus- | band. His garments, which he had placed | on a chair, had disappeared. In the hall way he found his shirt, but his diamond | studs, one weighing 13{ carats and the| other 1}¢ carats, were gone, and so were | his diamond cuff buttons and collar but- | ton. His trousers and purse were also in | the hallway, and $14 had been abstracted | from' the purse. His gold watch, worth $250, and two jeweled brooches had also been stolen. | After ransacking Mr. James’ room the burglars t:ad visited the room occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Graves. They emptied Mr. Graves’ trousers pockets of their coin and carried away Mrs. Graves’ silk dress, which | was subsequently found in the yard, to- | gether with her husband’s hat. They had taken with them, however, a fine overcoat | belonging to Mr. Graves and a brand-new | silk hat which Mr. James purchased a few | davs ago. | The burglary was reported to the police | on Sunday, and detectives have since then | been working on the case. Each wn- broxer in the City has been supplied with | a list of the stolen articles, but it is not ! thought likely that the burglars will try to | dispose of the property here. | . James said he retired about 12:30 o’clock Sunday morning and slept soundly | till awakened by his wife, who told him of | the burglary. The burglars had done their work silently and effectively. He ! congratulated himseif that his wife’s dia- | monds haa been overlooked. He is hope- ful that the men will soon be captured. SHOEMAKERS ORGANIZING They Will Form a Strong Home Industry Union This Week. The shoemakers of this City are organ- izing, not so much on trade-union lines as for a united effort to induce the public to patronize home industries. The first meeting was held last evening at 915} Market street, and about fifty were preseat. P. McKittrick was selected as chairman and J. McGrane as secretary. The latter, it discussing the situation, said that in this City there are 700 shoe- | makers and not over 200 are employed. Those who are at work put in ten gonn a day at piece work, and even then there is not sufficient to keep them busy ail of the | time. Consequently the pay is very poor. | He said: “‘During the past four months several of the larzer manufacturers have closed their factories and many of our shoemakers are thrown out of work. The reason is that nearly all of the footwear comes from the East.” In fact, of every ten pairs of shoes worn on this Coast not more than one pair is made here. It is time to turn the tige. ‘We have the leather bere and we have the shoemakers here. Why should the raw material be sent East for manufacture while our men areidle? “‘Our purpose is to stimulate the spirit B — NEW TO-DATY. Who was it said, “A nation has the government it deserves”?

Beautiful women will be glad to be reminded that falling or fading hair is unknown to those who use Ayer’s Hair Vigor. of patronizing our Pacific Coast industries, and we will unite to this end with the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Associa- tion of California. Both organizations will work to the same end, and within a few days we will send a committee to the association to discass the siiuation. We are sure of the support of our employers in this move, for many of them are mem- bers of the Manufacturers’ Association. “Our proposed plan of action is this: We will adopt a trademark to show that the goods we turn out are of California manufacture, and, maybe, the Manufac- " turers’ Association’s home-industry trade- mark will be made to serve the purpose. Then we will work among the labor unions to get their members to purchase only zoods stamped with the accepted trademark. In the strict sense of the term, this will not be a trades union, for we believe that if we can build up our trade our wages will be regulated without any difficulties with the employine ele- ment. Within a month we expect that every shoemaker in the,City will be in our organization and everv member will be a committee of one to encourage the patronage of nome industry. Several years ago there was a strong shoemakers’ union of 700 members in good standing, but it was wrecked, it is said, by scheming parties who drew the men into troubles that might have been avoided. These troubles caused the employers to | throw all union men out of their factories, and the latter retaliated by purchasing Eastern goods. Since then the trade has gone down, and from appearances the em- ployers and employes are interested in the present movement. NEW TO-LAY— AMUSEMENTS. AL HAYMAN & CO.’S THEATERS.
