THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 18 : ; PHELAN GIVES UP T0 SAR RAINEY Abject Surrender of the Supervisors to the Big Boss. After a Farcical Struggle Phe- lan Bows to Rainey and Takes Up His Men. THE JUNTA CONVENTION ENDS The Complete Domination of the Stableman in the Examiner’s Wing of the Democracy. The Junta Municipal Convention last night nominated Supervisors and School Directors named by Sam Rainey. Rainey’s ticket for Supervisors was swal- Jowed by James D. Phelan and the whole “anti-Rainey”” minority of the convention with the exception of Max Popper, who appears to have bolted. Phelan, when offered the nomination, declared with much brave determination that he must have a pure, high-grade | ticket for Supervisors or he would refuse the nomination. But Rainey and hislieutenants *jollied” things along, keeping a firm grip on about eight of the nominees, and after much highly important talk by Mr. Pnelan, two or three highly important formal caucuses | and many private conferences, Mr. Phelan last night surrendered to Rainey. He agreed to the slate ticketat7 p. M. at a cancus at the Grand Hotel attended mainly by Raineyites, and in the conven- | tion the slate went through flying, there being opposition nominations in but two | aistricts and the contestants being buried. | The ticket nominated is as follows: First Ward — Lawrence Devaney, bicycle- dealer. Second Ward—Thomas H. Haskins, whole- sale merchant. Third Ward — P. M. Delaney, with J. J. O’Brien. Fourth Ward—John H. Sheehan, tallor. Fifth Ward—Dr. Washington Dodge. Sixth Ward—John Wolf, wholesale liquor merchant. Seventh Ward—Dr. T. A. Rottanzi. Eighth Ward—Frank Conklin, carpet-beater. Ninth Ward—James E. Britt, plumber. Tenth Ward—Charles Gildes, Deputy Regis- trar. Eieventh Ward—Dr. C. A. Clinton. Twelfth Ward—Thomas W. Rivers, grocer. This, with three exceptions, is the ticket made out at a caucus of Rainey followers neld at -Rainey’s house on Golden Gate avenue on Surday evening. That caucus metat 7:30 o’clock in Mr. Rainey’s parlor. Refreshments measured a royal hospi- tality and Rainey tired nis face with | smiling. J. A. Fenton, Samue! Kohlman, Eddie Graney, Ed Lanigan, R. L. Mann, ex-Senator Arms and others were present. Henry Sutliffe, the cigar-dealer, w. agreed upon for the First Ward. | Sutliffe has been pulled down since, it is | currently said, at the behest of the E aminer, that one of the Examiner's fa- vorites might be given a place. So the raanager of the late Examiner-Journal relay race was put on as a concession to one of the lesser convention influences. E. M. Burke, clerk at the Occidental | Hotel, was namea for the Fifth Ward at | the Rainey caucus. Mr. Burke found that | the nomination would conflict with his | business, and he withdrew, so Dr. Dodge was foand in his place lest night. The next ctange was in the Seventh, | where the simon-pure Rainey council named E. J. Brewer. Dr. T. A. Rottanzi had been looking ardently for the nomination in the Tenth and he was acceptablie ‘enough to Rainey, but it was thought best Sunday night 10 | let Charles Gildea, president of the Iro- quois Club, go in as one of the four or five to be given to the anti-Rainey minority. But Rottanz: and his friends hustled and last nignt he was transferred to the Seventh Ward and substituted for Brewer. James E. Britt has been the especial pet of the Raineyites and he was siated jor his ward, the Eleventh. Phelan rubbed his nose a good deal and rather objected to Britt. Dr. C. A. Clinton’s | friends were makin;; a strong fight for him in the Eleventh Ward in opposition to Britt, and Phelan wanted Clinton. Rainey stuck to Britt royally in the face of great pressure, but yesterday Rainey consented to let Clinton go in if Britt were nominated in the Ninth, in place of P. D. Mullaney. Phelan agreed to Rainey’s| programme, and so Britt was last night | nominated from the Ninth, instead of from | his own ward. In making out his slate Rainey turned | down a long string of zood men who | sought the honor. Isidor Gutte was one, for instance. The commodore’s ambition was keen, but he didn’t try to buck fate and Sam Rainey. ‘With the changes described the ticket is | the one the smiling stableman and his retainers put up finaily on Sunday night. And James D. Phelan came before the convention last night, lauded it as being the true stuff, and then this champion of “purity” said: ““This convention has beea controiled by leaders, but net by the bad and vicious,” and Mr. Phelay, declared to the City that Sam Rainey’s Supervisors would not be controlled by anybody. The ticket for School Wirectors was named by an out-and-out Rainey com- mittee, and it was indorsed withouta word of discussion. The convention wound up its business last night in a noisy session of two hours, which ChairmanRagan started at9 o’clock. The proceedings began with a victory for Harry 1. Mulcreevy, the candidate for the Asssmbly in the Thirty-seventh Dis- trict. He nad been first nominated by the Buckleyites and at a former sessicu the convention had imstructed tae district convention to nominate a man not on the other ticket. The chairman of the district reportea that Mr. Mulcreevy had simply been, nominated again, and the boys cheered the popular and defiant young nominee. The convention was forced to accept Mul- creevy, and whea Chairman Ragan had made a speech indorsing him the rules were suspended and the nomination ra fied. The nominee made a speech amid much loving disorder from his friends. The report of the committee on nomi- nations for Board of Education, of which Dr. Ragan was chairman, was read by Secretary Saulmann. The ticket recom- mended was as follows: Benjamin Armer, cigar merchant, 2815 Pine street Charles A. Bantel, baker and confectioner, 427 Larkin street. < Charles L. Barrington, druggist,Marketstreet and Van Ness avenue. Thomus A. Burns, produce merchant, 109 Seventh street. Michael Byrne, dry-goods merchant, 1230 Green street. H. A. Conrad, carpenter and builder, 623 California street. James E. Derham, clerk with Lewis & Co., 2108 Larkin street. E. J. Gallagher, grocer, 2614 Bush street. Edwin Haxtrick, merchant, 2002 Golden Gute ayenue. D!.LW. H. Sieverst, dentist, 761 Valencia stree Dr. Thomas E. Shumate, physicisn, 2406 Sutter street. Samuel L. Waller, civil engineer, 2104 Bush treet. There.was no discussion of the report. It was quickly adopted and, on mmotion of | debts, which finally carried, to the woe of ‘W. P. Sullivan, the secretary cast the bal- lot for the nominees named. “The next in order is the nomination of Supervisors,”’ said Chairman Ragan. “Ab! ab!" said the boys, as the fun of the evening arrived. Secretary Saulmann somehow began to read a list of nominees, and he began, “First Ward, Lawrence Devaney—" As Mr. Devaney’s name had not been presented to the convention, it was at once seen that Mr. Saunimann was starting to read the slate and the convention roared. There was a brief hitch about how the slate should be placed before the conven- tion, and then the nominations of the siate men were made from the platform in suc- cession, in all cases but one the nomina- uions being at once made by acclamation. Captain Foley nominated Lawrence De- vaney in a few words, and then Secretary Saulmann, thinking that the names of as- pirants handed in a few daysago had some significance, announced that Wil- “ilm Jordan was also before the conven- tion. “Billy”” hastened 0 say that his nsme was withdrawn, and the slate had a clear :Fay. Devaney was named by acclama- ion. James E. O’Donnell, the great nom- inator of the convention, named the slate candidate for the Second Ward, Thomas H. Haskins, the friend of Ed Lanigan. Mr. Haskins was quickly declarea the nominee. Haskins’ name was loudly cheered. John H. Ferriman nominated the next of the candidates especially approved by Sam Rainey, P. M. Delaney, employed by J.J. O'Brien & Co., who was named for the Third Ward by acclamation, amid applause by the majority. Again came forth Joseph E. 0'Donnell to nominate another candidate from Rainey’s original slate. He named John H. Sheehan of the tailoring firm of Flynn & Sheehan, and the applanse that rose from the Rainey element contidued until there were *‘Three cheers for Sheehan!”; + Charles Wesley Reed nominated Dr. ‘Washington Dodge for the Fifth, H. C. Gesford named John Wolf of Wolf, Wree- don & Co. for the Sixth, Hugo K. Asher spoke for Dr. T. A. Rottanzi for the Seventh, and Charles Wesley Reed named Frank Conklin for the Eighth, All were named by acclamation. Then came the first of the two contests. The transplanted James E. Britt, presi- dent of the Master Plumbers' Association, was nominated amid loud cheering. But the friends of P. D. Mullaney, who was on the slate to be taken off, would rot ac- cept the inevitable, and he was nomi- nated by W. A. Breslin, amid cries of “Britt!"” A tedious rolleall gave Britt 460 and Mullaney 105, which shows what a slate can do if necessary in a Ramey conven- tion even when a Mr. Mullaney is turned down for a carpet-bagger at the behest of the boss. Charles Gildea was named when pre- sented by P. J. Tomalty. E. P. E. Trov nominated Dr. C. A. Clinton, and *hen John H. Grady and P. I. Silk were put into the contest. Clinton got 409 votes, Grady 110 and Silk 32. The great majority stuck to the slate. Thomas F. Barry nominated Thomas ‘W. Rivers for the Twelfth Ward, and in a minute he was indorsed. Chairman Ragaa announced that James D. Phelan wus present and ready to in- dorse the plattorm. The convention cheered him loudly as he appeared. His | acceptance of Sam Rainey’s boss-ship | made it easy for the boys to cheer. Mr. Phelan indorsed every plank in the platform, ‘‘especially since we have named a worthy Board of Supervisors, who are pledged in the platform to do their duty to the people. I believe, from the char- | acter of the men, that they will. “Your leaders have taken me into their contidence, and I have sat with them for | two days. I believe that they are deter- mined to give the people a ticket that will become dear to the people. Municipal | government 1 a science and we must have | experts—men who will seek the beauti- ful as well as the useful. They will perform their duties without dictation be- cause they have come out of a convention which, though controlled by leaders, is not controlled by the vicious snd the bad.” E. P. Mogan, police court prosecuting attorney and friend of Ed Lanigan, was nominated for District Attorney. The chairman aund secretary were thanked, and then there was a howl of in- dignant protest over a proposition to pay $155 to the General Committee to pay its all the sergeants-at-arms and secretaries | and their friends, who are entitled to the residue of the $10 tax on nominees. The following committee was named to fill vacancies: Herbert Choynski, Dr. W. J. O'Rourke, Joseph E. O'Douneli, George E. Gallagher, Thomas W. Burke, and the convention adjourned sine die. e oy PALMER PETITION READY. The Sound-Money Democrats Are Pushing Thelr Cam- paign. The petition which will get the Palmer and Buckner electors. on the ballot was completed yesterday by the Democratic Sound-money League, and it will soon be filed with the Secretary of State. There are just about 9000 names, several hnndred more than were necessary. Most of the signatures were obtained in San Francisco by paid canvassers, but a great number were secured by voluntary work. Bunches of 100, 200 and 300 were received from towns all over the State, from Eu- reka to San Diego. No attempt was made to get any in Los Angeles, where the sound-money Democrats are all out for McKinley. The League is now malnly at work on the distribution of sound-money cam- paign literature. So far 80,000 pieces, comprising ten publications, have been distributed, mainiy in San Joaquin, Con- tra Costa, Sonoma and northern counties. They have gone to 13,000 individual ad- dresses, mdinly of farmers. Sixty dis- tributing correspondents have received 100 copies of each document. The distri- bution through tne central and southern portions of the State will now begin and 50,000 voters will be individually ad- dressed. A big ratification will be held in n Francisco soon. It has not yet been decided whether to put speakers in the field. —_——— Speaking To-Nllht.

The residence of Mrs. Lund on Sutter street, near Baker, was entered by two burglars yesterday afternoon during her absence. The glass in one of the rear windows was broken and an entrance was effected. The rooms were ransacked and a lady’s gold watch and chain and several articles of jewelry were stolen. As soon as Mrs. Lund returned and discovered evi- dence of the burglary she reported it to the police. Two men who were peddling potatoes in the neighborhood are sus- pected. An attempt was made to enter the resi- dence of Frank Lemberger, 3470 Seven- teenth street, late Tuesday pight.

A beauti- ful effect in white and pale green stood beside a stall in lavender, pink'and yel- low. No two were draped alike, so that there was ugood opvportanity for the dec- | orators to display their taste and versa- tility. The general effect was artistic and quite picturesque.

FOG CAUSED A FAILURE, Return of the Astronome: the Lick Observatory’ Expedition. Professor Schaeberle Explains Why He ‘Was Unable to Photograph the Eclipse. Professor J. M. Schaeberle of the Lick Observatory and his three companions— C. Burchalter, Chabot Observatory, Dr. Shuey and Louis O, Masten—constituting the Lick Observatory expedition to take observations of tne sun’s eclipse in Japan on August 9, returned yesterday on the steamer China. The funds for the expedition were fur- nished by Colonel C. F. Crocker, and the party left here with all the necessary equipment to make tkorough photo- graphic observations. ““ I regret to say that the expedition was an absolute failure,’’ said the professor when seen last night at the Lick House. * We left here June 1 and reached Ak- keshi, on tbe island of Yezo, with our forty-foot telescope and the smaller ones. ‘“We established four stations 150 miles apsrt. At Akkeshi I remained with Burchalter and Masten while Dr. Shuey went to Monpetsu. Our native friend and assistant, Abahiri, a graduate of the Im- perial University of Tokio, established two other stations. “The eclipse occurred at 3:20 o’clock in the afternoon, at a time when it was cloudy or foggy or raining at our respec- tive stations. < Under the circumstances’ we got absolutely no chance to do a single thing but deplore our bad luck. *“We were not the only unfortunate ones. The Amberst expedition, headed by Dr. Todd, which left here on the yacht Coronet last spring with enough instru- ments to overstock the country, left the yacht-at Yokobama and made its way to Isashai, near Monpetsu, where all the instruments were mounted. Well, the same state of affairs occurred there that occured where we were, and as a conse- quence the party is on its way home now as crestfallen as we are ourselves.” —_—— WILL CANVASS NAMES.

Sutro Resigns as Supervisorial Nominee From the Twelfth Ward. ROGERS WITHDRAWS HIS NAME McDonald for Superintendent of Streets — Big Row Over At. tempted Stuffing. | Mayor—joseph L. Dimona. Superyvisors—Eighth Ward, Dr. C. D. Cleve- land; Seventh Ward, Joseph Asbury John- son; Sixth Ward, F. W. Potter; Fifth Ward, Dr. J. 8. Stonme; Fourth Ward, C. W. Pope; Third Ward, Geo. D. Gillespie; Second Ward, Emile Kehrline; First Ward, Henry Huppert; Twelfth Ward, John M. Reynolds. Supefintendent of Streets—D, A, McDonald, The Populists: met in convention at their tent last night to make nominations for local officers. As a resulu the whole body is now safely and lovingly in repose in the welcoming arms of Christopher A. Buckley. Big ‘“Joe” Dimo nd was nomi- nated for Mayor amid the most intense enthusiasm. After the convention ad- journed- the delegates simply fell upon one another’s neck in the exuberance of their joy at the way they had managed to ‘“elude” the bosses. The convention was called to order by Chairman Daywalt, and the following ad- ditional candidates were reported on favorably by the investigating committee : Justice of the Peace—J. C. Floyd and J. ‘W. Forman; City and County Attorney, H. T. Creswell; Surveyor, Robert Munch; School Directors—Dr.” J. G. Crawford, J. H. Wiley and William Cannon; Sheriff, A. Decourtieux; Supervisors—Third Ward, P. N. Delany; Seventh Ward, Charles Grambarth; Bixth Ward, Fred W. Pot- ter. Balloting was begun to select a Super- visor from the Eighth Ward., There were two candidates, Dr. C. D. Cleveland ana F. M. Malloy. Cleveland received 49 vot-s to his opponent’s 45 and was declared the nominee. Dr. W. N. Griswold asked that “B. D.” or “R. D.,"” representing either a Buckley or a Rainey Democrat, be placed after the name of ail Democratic candidates. This original suggestion aroused great excite- ment, but was not acted upon. John M. Reynolds aroused the audience to a high pitch of excitement by suddenly rising and shouting that an attempt was being made to ‘‘stuff’’ the delegation be- hind him with persons not members of the convention. The chairman instructed the sergeant-at-arms to prevent this customary politicai proceeding. Supervisorial candidates from the Sev- enth Ward were Joseph Asbury Johnson and James Ryan. Loud cheering fol- lowed the announcement that Johnson had received 102 votes to Ryan’sl, and was therefore the nominee. There were four candidates from the Sixth Ward—Charles Schaffer, F. W. Pot- ter, W. E. Lane and rred Eaton. After the first ballot, which was not decisive, Lane dropped out. Neither was the sec- ond ballot satisfactory, and Schaffer was withdrawn. The fight then lay between Potter, a Populist, and Eaton, reputed to be a Buckley Democrat. Eaton receivea 45 votes and Potter 48. There were loud cries of Eaton having been counted out, ‘and the roll was called. The vote was found correct as stated, and Eaton was the loser. 5 George Harry, chairman of the Thirty- first delegation, rose and yellea that Buckley had packed the house. He vociferously denounced these ‘‘aspira- tions” in their integrity. A riot was only avoided by Daywalt’s skillfal handling of the mallet. Dr. J. S Stone, having no opponent from the Fifth Ward, was nominated by acclamation. The same was true of C. W, Pope, candidate from the Fourth Ward. George D. Gillespie, candidate from the Third, received 99 ballots to 0. N. De- laney’s 2. This called forth cheers. Emile Kehrline was nominated from the Second Ward by acclamation, and in the first Henry Huppert defeated Steven Sangninetti by a vote of 85 to 15. Adolph Sutro sent in his resignation as nominee from the Twelfth, owing to ill health. The resignation was accepted and John M. Reynolds was elected over T. G. Parker to fill the vacancy by a vote of 70 to 28. Dr. Daywalt was strenuously begged to accept the nomination by nearly every delegate in the tent, but persisted in a refusal. Then came the event of the evening, the naming of a nominee for Mavor. T. V. Cator sent in a communication to the effect that Dr. Jerome A. Anderson was the most feasible candidate, but the chair- man ruled him out of the fight as he had not appeared before the investigating committee. The fight lay between Hon. J. Taylor Rogers and Joseph L Dimond, Buckley’s nominee. Both men were cailed to the platform and shook hands, while the au- dience gave a deafening demonstration of its approval. Rogers, in .an eloquent speech, stated that there were moments in a man’s life when he must choose between self and the best interests of his party and the gen- eral public. He believed this was oneof them. He further believed that there were more feasible candidates than himself, men who had shown by their records that they would drag away the hand of the corporations from the public throat, and therefore begged to decline the nomination for these reasons. Great applause followed. There were then loud calls for a speech from Dimond. He thanked the delega- tion for its expression of confidence, pointed to his record as one of the **honest. four’’ as a guaranty of his future conduct, stated that, though he was already the nominee of a boss, he had made no prom- ise but to work for the public, and prom- ised to serve the people well if elected. He also attested to his firm belief in the major Populistic tenets. Carleton H. Johnson nominated J. A. Anthony. As the delegation announced their votes it was seen that Dimond received 74 votes to Anthony’s 28. Hats were thrown in the air and for awhile all was pandemo- nium. Dimond, in response to repeated calls, thanked the convention for the h%novrv done himi. x j . .Rn{vt arew in favor of D. A. Macdonald for Superintendent of Streets, and the latter’s nomination was made by o ahali st the § askell sai e Supreme Court had ruled that there be no nomin.&:;, for five offices, but there was a likelihood of this decision baingl reversed, and. that they had better have nomineces ready. Accordingly namés of nominees were suggested as follows: County Clerk, . C. Haley and Joseph ~ Reay; District Attorney, Dan Sullivan; Shernff, Armond Decourtieux; Pubhic Adminis- trator, Joseph Fassler; Recorder, Thomas J.. Glynn; Corcner, br. Adam. E. Barney was also named for Tax Collector. There were two.nominees on hand for Tax Collector, James N.
