MARTIN KELLY NAMES THE JUDGES Hunt, Finn, Sawyer and Cook Nominees of the Fake Convention. HUNT'S NAME HISSED. Indignation Because Judge Heb- bard Was Turned Down by Mahoney. HOW THE ROLL WAS STUFFED, Ludicrous Attempt to Imp.art Dignity to a Gathering in the Name of the F.Kirs. tin Kelly wore a broad-gauge smile last nient as he surveyed the 150 people in B’na1 B'rith Hall, whom he had elected a few days before at his patent, back-action, reflex, duplex, ballot-multiplying, pri- mary election machine. They smiled back at Martin because his smile was an encouragement to them after the recent gruel decision of the Supreme Court to the effect that the County Clerk and a few other important officials who have the dispensation of large chunks of vatriotism were to retain their offices for another two years. Mr. Kelly took a front seat at one side of the hall, while Senator Mahonev oc- cupied & seat at the other side. Both glanced at the galleries and at the seats around the hali, which were occupied by Republicans who declined to follow Mr. Kelly’s storm-beaten banner. Then the Senator proceeded to business and buzzed something into the ear of tbis delegate and that delegate. It was thirty-five minutes after 8 o’clock when C. A. Lau- meister rapped the faithful few to order. W. A. Richardson nominated Henry L Kowalsky for the position of temporary chairman. The well-trained delegates made the election unanimous and Mr. Kowalsky, with a shining silk hat in his hand, ascended to the platform and made a little speech. He vegan by saying (without choking) that the Republican party of San Fran- cisco was thoroughly aund fully represent- ed in the convention before him. “The Repubtican party of this City re- quires no boss,’”’ continued the ex-lieuten- ant-colonel. Martin Kelly, who was sit- ting in the front row, started violently and blushed, but was reassured by Mr. Kowal- sky looking another way and blinking his eyes at the nearest chandelier. ‘““We: are here for harmony,” he con- tinued, feelingly. “and extend the olive branch to every Republican to come with- in our ranks.” There eing no response to this hospit- able invitation, William Laumeister was selected as temporary secretary, and Mark Kelly as sergeant-at-arms. Several delegates murmured when the office of serzeani-at-arms was mentioned, and one exclaimed: ‘“We don’t want no sergeant-at-arms; there’s only us here.” ut the sergeant-at-arms was appointed nevertheless. The following were appointed as a com- mittee on credentials: E. B. Read, Joseph Sparrow, J. B. McNamara, A. Hagenkamp, William A-mussen, Hogan, Robert Pyne, A. Durfee, P. A. Lund, Max Gold- bere, William M. Conklin, Martin Lichten- stadter, J. A. Noble, P. Leich and F. R. Hauson. Martin Kelly’s name was the first in the report of the committee on credentials. The report contained the names of several score citizens who do not tra:n under Mr. Kelly, but the seats of the absentees were filied with alternates who answered for the missing men and thus prevented the oc- currence of any ugly gaps in the conven- tion. Proxies of men whose names had been used at the primaries without their knowl- edge or consent were numerous, and were in the hands of the faithful few who were close to the boss. Among the names reported by the com- mittee on credentials was John D. Spreck- els, and when his name was calied some one answered ‘‘Present,” but the effort was too raw and a burst of laughter from the galleries followed the clumsy attempt to stuff the roll. This is only an illustration of the kin- dergarten methods pursued in the late primaries. It appears that Messieurs Kelly and :Mahony failed to secure the consent of a sufficient number of Republi- cans to allow the use of their names as delegctes. Hence the roll was stuffed with the names of two or three score Re- publicans of standing and political repute to impart a tone of dignity to the political fake. The chair appointed the following com- mittees: Order of business—H. L. Curtis, J. iLevi Jr., William Lindop, William Thompson, ‘William Offermann, Dexter Moran, John G. South, W. M. Cartwright, Andrew Murry, M. McEvoy, M. Livingstone, Charles H. Forbes, W. Michelsen, Fromberg, J._C. Stevenson, L. B. Cole- man, J. J. West, Luigi Torre, Joseph Spohn. Platform avd rules—A. Ruef, J. T. Car- roll, J. M. Ellenbrook, Joseph King, B. L Wren, J. W. Darragh, Edward Connolly, C. 8. Bartlett, B. Gracier, W. 8. Thorgood, M. H. Wascerwitz, John D. Dolan, L. Howe, A. M. Pierson, C. H. Fehnemann, H. Sheridan. Gaston Straus, M. Anthony. After a recess of ten minutes, the greater part of wbich was spent 1n partaking of refre-hments downstairs, the committees returned. The order of permanent busi- ness was partiaily reported as follow. Permanent chairman, H. P. Sonntag; vice-chairmen, Asa R. Wells and Carlos G. Young; secretary, A. J. Morganstern; assistants, J. W. McCabe, 8. H. Beckett and Gus Hartmann; sergeant-at-arms, J. P. McQuaide. Mr. sonntag excused himself from mak- ing a speech, and Mr. Wells followed suit. Mr. Kowalsky took the floor and the occasion, there being nothing else in sight worth u&ing just then, and made a speech on the purity of the juélclary.. He wound up by. moving that the chair appoint a committee of five, consisting mainly of pure attorneys, to select four names to be rreunwd to the czanveggmn as candidates uperior judgeship. ml:l?:ursn. Kowal:ky, Ruef, Forbes, Maho- ney and Carroll were appcinted on the committee, and after an absence from the hall of not more than three minutes returned and reported the names of John Hant, E. D. Bawyer, John F. Finn and O ok. L'u!:’.‘ll.:.c‘-".n hisses when Judge Hunt’s name was read, and an indignant delegate shouted, *“What's the matier with Heb- ard 2 L The ery'was repeated by several others, and Mr. Ruef made the explanation that he had votea for Judge Hebbard, but that the majority of the committee did not wanj Hebbard. Ar‘lhiq juncture Martin Kelly claimed the floor, and moved that the four g:nde- men reported by the committee de- clared by acclamation to be the nominees of the convention. i The motion was carried with a rush, and Senator Mahoney announced to the chair that be would pay the ‘initiatjon fee” ‘ot the gen present. Jacob Levi moved that the convention adjourn until Saturday night at 8 o’clock, and the motion was carried. ANARCHISTS SEND FUNDS The Local Club Wants to Bring Out Louise Michel and Pietro Gori. Money is being raised by the anarchists all over the United States to bring out Louise Michel and Pietro Gori in order that they may make a lecturing tour to disseminate the doctrines of anarchy. Both these famous anarchists are at present in London. Gori went to the Biitish capital to take part in the Social- istic Congress which was held a month and & half ago, but he was not permitted to speak, as anarchists were. rigorously excluded from the platform. Find ng his plans frustrated in London be went to Paristo disseminate his doc- trines, but soon crossed the channel back to England. His anarcnist friends here say that Gori would be ready enough to sirike a blow at the powers that be if the brethren considered it necessary, but at the same time they incline to the belief that he is not connected with the alleged anarchist plots in England and France to blow up the Czar. The local anarchist club, with head- quarters at the southwest corner of Union and Powell streets, has sent an install- ment of $50 toward the general fund for bringing out Gori and Louise Michel, and intends soon to send more. The clubs all over the country are contributing accord- ing to their membership and as this isone of the weakest anarchist centers in the United States, the general fund has already reached considerable proportions. Le Questione Sociale, the organ of the anarchists of New Jjersey, states that Gori and Louise Miche! will sail this month for the United States, Their coming means a determined effort to make more converts to the creed of anarchy. AN EXPENSIVE ILLUSICN, A Spieler at the Mechanics’ Fair Disappeared With Some Money. men, they not being A Protest Against an Exhibitor Giv- ing Away Souvenirs—Irish Night Melodies. The sons and daughters of the Emerald Isle invaded the Pawilion in large num- bers last evening, for it was Irish night at the Home Industry Exposition. The re- union was under the auspices of the Celtic Union, An excellent musical programme con- sisting exclusively of national [rish and American airs was rendered by the or- chestra. An address on the manufactures and commercial interests of Ireland was delivered by the Hon. Joseph Leggett, a trustee of the institute. Jeremiah Deasy, president of the Celtic Union, was chair- man of the committee of arrangements. The exhibitors in the gallery are hav- ing a gooa laugh at the expense of the ex- hibitor who is conducting $he palace of il- lusions, near the head of the stairs, where the half-lady, the water nymph, the trans- forming Queen of Sheba and other mys- tifying illusions are on exhibition. he professor, as he is called, hired a leather-lunged spieler named McGregor to roclaim the attractions within. On ednesday evening a man with a large family presented a $10 gold piece for several admission tickets. The ticket-seller did not have the change and requested the spieler to get the money changed. - McGregor took the coin and disappeared as mysteriously as the water nymph inside the booth. In fact, his per- formance wus so successful that he has not been seen since, and a warrant was sworn out for his arrest to see if the police can find him. McGregor's single star act cost the professor §9 80. There 1s another little rumpus in the wind in the Pavilion. Yesterday Zahn Bros., manufacturers of brooms, gave out a lot of souvenirs in the shape of minia- ture brooms with leadpencil handles. Three policemen were unable to keep the passageway clear, so great was the de- mand for the little articles. The manage- ment of the fair has undertaken to stop the distribution of the scuvenirs, but the Zabns are firmly of the opinion they have as much right to give away their goods as any other exhibitor, and tie final decision is still in the air. The total vote for the most popular ex- hibit stands: Johnson-Locke Mercantile Company, 1130; Joshua Hendy Machine Works, 1165; Crown Milling Company, 1291; Rix Compressed-air Machine Com- pany. 914; Tillman & Bendel, 673; Lau- meister Milling Company, 445; Union Iron Works, 338; W.

At 11:15 last evening a fire broke out in the rear of the liquor-store of Peter Tode, near the northwest corner of Ninth and Bryant streets. The flames quickly spread o the saloon of Harry Walcom on the corner, thence up the block, taking in L. Scott’s place. Mrs. Perry’s dressmaking establishment, 544 Ninth street, and W. G. Haniford’s laundry, 556 Ninth. The Fire Department, responding to the alarm from box 187, was soon on the ground, but the old shells of buildings urned like tinder. The engines, however, kept the flames within the block, and then they bad it pretty - much their own way. Wal- com’s family was sleeping back of the saloon and his little children barely es- caped, 80 swift was the fire going through the old house. The contents of all the places were a total loss, with a total dam- age of about $4000. Tode's stock of liquors will cover about half of the general loss and is well insured. Wal- com's loss is about $1000, with a smali in- surance. Mrs. Perry's and Haniford’s losses of about $500 each are not covered by insur- ance. The latter recently moved into the place. The burned buildings belong to the Bhields estate. . As the Commercial Fire Dispatch wagon was rushing down Harrison street it broke down at the corner of Seventh and is & total wreck.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1896 A NEW CHURCH MUST B BULT Parishioners of the Sacred Heart Church Are in Earnest. - FATHER FLOOD’S FLOCK Larger Quarters Required to Go On With the Good Work. THE DOMINICAN SISTERS. It Is Intended Later to Turn the Present Church Into a Parochial School. The last business meeting of the parish- ioners of the Sacred Heart Church pre- paratory to the fair they propose holding next month was held last night at the church on Fell street, near Fillmore. James C. Nealon presided. Tue fair is to open on the first Thursday of October in Second Regiment Hall on Page and Gough streets, and will continue for two weeks. The purpose of the fair is to secure funds to build a new church, and there is every likelihood judging from the manner in which the ladies went to the front last night that they intend earning consider- able coin to build a fine edifice. When the Dominican Sisters were burned out on.Golden Gate avenue four years ago Father Flood and his parishion- ers built a house of sixteen rooms back of the Sacred Heart Church, on Fell street, and gave it to the sisters as an asylum. They have been a most valuable acquisi- tion to the parish. where they have re- sided ever since. They bave now upward of 200 pupils, and all their facilities are exhausted. When the fair is overand a new church can be built, Fatier Flood will turn over to the sisters the old church, which will be turned into a parochial school.

Mamie watched him depart and then went out and purchased a quantity of sugar of lead. She returned, and swallowing large dose lay down on the bed to die. The action of the drug, however, caused her to cry out in pain and she was discovered before it was too X A physician was summoned and after a few werful emetics were administered with sat- Efuemry results the woman was pronounced out of danger. ————————— Six Inquests Held.

STREETCAR ECC:NTRICITIES, Combination of Transfer Perplexities for the Solution of the Potreroites. One of the latest phases of the Market- street railway eccentricities is the varia- tion in streetcar accommodation between the City proper and the Potrero. The last phase of perplexity is that at certain hours of the day a red panel is hung on the front of the Kentucky-street electric cars which reads: ‘‘This car only to Market street.” Further information is hidden under red-tape rules, and ail that remains for the passenger who is unac- vainted with the spasmodic rules issued rom day to day is to remain on the car until it stops at Third and Market streets and ssk for a transfer to the Kearny- street line, cross Market street by dodging between passing vehicles and cable-cars until he gets on to Kearny street and then waiting ten or fifteen minutes until a northbound car comes along, board it and get to his destination. This new rule is puzzling, bungling and complicated, and gives the passengers who travel on this line noend of annoy- ance.
