THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1896. CATOR'S JOB HAS SPRUNG A LEAK People’s Party Men Will Soon Denounce Him Openly. ( How the Platform Has Been Ruined and ‘the Party Absorbed. THE GREAT CRIME OF 1896 | Observations on Sentiment Among the | Mass® of the Party by a Stalwart. Middle-of-the-road Bopuli: are like the man without a country—they have nothing to which they can swear alle- | giance. They are Populists without a party. If they vote for municipal officers they must vote for Buckley’s lambs or else remain away from the pells; if they wish to vote for members of the Legisia- ture they must mark an X with the red-rubber stamp opposite the names of Rainey’s larabs. They will vote for these, fa with the understanding that the Democrats put on the ticket by Cator and \ckley and Rainey will answer the roll- Thomas V. Cator, aiias Charles , for United States Senator, and as Cator is higher than the platform and the party he must be necessarily bigher than the people, for it would be rank treason to murmur inst the fulfillment of any bargain made by such political purists as the three gentlemen named. Populists are complaining in undertones because their party has been absorbed by the Democracy, and it will not be many days before they will loudly voice those complaints. A well-known People’s party man said to a CALL reporter yesterday: *‘I am dis- gusted with the whole affair and yetI dare not announce myself because it would injure me in my business.

Secretary Julian, vice-presidents, WEDDED WHERE ALL WAS BRIGHT Colonel Long and Miss Amy Requa United at St. Paul’s. The Interior Hidden With Ex- quisite Floral and Military Decorations. { BREAKFAST IN A BIG BOWER Handsome Army Officers Resplendent in Full Uniforms Acted as Ushers, OARLAND OrricE SaAN FrRANCISCO CALL,} 908 Broadway, Oct. 7. One more wedding, and that one the most imposing of all, was added to the Gnard rank. He was attended by Captain Marion P. Maus, U. 8. A., also in full uriform, as best man. Mrs. Requa, the bride’s mother, was ele- gantly sowned in heavy pompadour silk, flowered in changeable purple and pale yellow flowers. It was made with a vest of soft yellow silk tulle, edzed with glisten- ing passementerie. The elbow sleeves were met by long wrinkled gloves, while a small toque of yellow straw, trimmed with ostrich tips, completed the costume. Mrs. Mark Requa, sister-in-law of the bride, wore & handsome pink gown of Dresden silk. The bodice was made with a soft chiffon front and wide revere, lined with black satin. A small hat of pink and black completed the cosfume. She was accempanied by her husband. Such was the bridal party that stood before the officiating dignitaries and oc- cupied the frontrow of seats. Behind them sat the creme de la creme of society. The service did not occupy many minutes, as thare was no music, and the reading and responses were extremely simple. When the benediction had been pronounced, the maid of honor lifted the bride’s veil and the groom deliberately embraced and kissed his wife. The bridal procession then re-formed and were es- corted by the soldier ushers to thelr carriages, and the social event of the year ‘was over. . This much was seen by the thousand, but for the 350 who were invitea to the wedding breakfastat Highlands other sur- prises were in store. On the lawn in front of the beautiful Requa residence a large canvas tent formed the foundation for a beautiful sylvan bower, in which the wedding feast was served. The interior was lined with flags and flowers and ropes of ivy and smilax, and in large boughs of trees up in the roof canaries were hidden, and their ceaseless song added greatly to the effect.

THE SALOR PUGLST Tom Sharkey Lands in Town Full of Fight and Anxiety. He Says Corbett Is a “Has Been,” Who Wou'd Rather Eat Than Mill. Tom Sharkey, the sailor pugilist, who was alleged to be matched to fight James Jonah Corbett a twenty-round contest, ar- rived in this City last evening. Sharkey looked hale and hearty, and whern informed of Corbett’s uitimatum he smiled and mutterea sometHing to him- self which did not reach the ears of those who were attentive listeners. “Well, Tom, I have a telegram from Corbett,” said Director-General Groom of the National Club, “which states that a letter is now speeding over the plains that will explain everything. I guess it will reach me on Friday or Satyrday.” Sharkey was very outspokén in his statements regarding Corbett’s intentions. He said that Corbett, in his opinion, does not wanttofightany person, and so far as the letter was concerned he believed that it contained some evasive excuse which, same old Chris—wanted one of his Demo- | in the estimation of the pubtic, will stamp cratic friends there, so I shall have to vote for Taylor or Dr. O'Donneli—I haven’t made up my mind which. “‘Cator and Wardall seem to think itis all right. Cator wants to be United States Senator, and Wardall isdrawing downa century every month in United Stales gold coin for acting as chairman of the People’s party State Central Committee. ‘Wardall wants the coliectorship of the port at Wilmington, and Secretary Bush, whois drawing down $75 a month, doesn’t seem to expect anything except that fat salary. Bush got himself disliked at the start be- cause he kicked 1n the traces against the fusion proposition, but he’s got onto his job, as the saying is, and is sawing wood now. “We People’s party men, who for the most part are poor, must be a whole lot of gudgeons, besides, to be paying those salaries. The Republicans, who could better afford to pay salaries, don’t do it.

Neither does Colonel Higgins, the the allegzed champion just what he is at present, viz.: ‘‘a good has been.” “I predict,” said Sharkey, ‘‘that Corbett will say that owing to Risengagement with Bob Fitzsimmons he mustignore me; but that don’t go. If Jim thinks he can throw me overboard he is mistaken. I will depart for the Kast just as soon as I learn that Corbett has no further use for me, and you can wager your clothes against a wad of fog that I will make him fight or chew hay. ‘‘Why don’t he come out Iike a man and say that he is off the track and caanot do any more fighting?

They are donating their time and labor out of pure patriotism for the party. “Why don’t Wardall and Bush do the same?

Paul’s to-day, when Miss Amy Requa was married to Colonel Oscar Fitzalan Long, U. 8. A. It was distinetly a bright weading—bright decorations, bright National colors, brizht dresses and more beautiful than all the rich brightness of the noonday autuma sun that sent its ravs through every pointed window in the southern wall of the old church. The interior of the building was cer- tainly more lovely and artistic than any of | the one thousand invited guests could bave anticipated, because the decorations were original as to design and more pro- fuse than anything hitherto seen in Oak- land. The walls, pillars and windows were not decorated, but rather complete floral beds had been transplanted from the piace of their growth to the interior of the church. Smilax and ivy curled gracefully around the upper windows and it might have grown where it rested it looked so natural. Over the altar rail was a large golden eagle with outstretched wings and irom it | bung two handsome flags that fell in rich | foids to the rall, where they were gath- | ered toward each side with dainty ropes of smilax. The military effect of the decorations was obtained by the placing of the National colors wherever its red, white and blue folds harmonized with the beds of flowers and greenery. The altar was draped with rich white satin, heavily embroidered with gold. Tall palms stood like sentinels at the entrance to the chan- cel and over the spot where the bridal couple stood hung a large bell of white crysanthemums with an edge of pink roses. The seyen arches on each side of the church were covered with foliage and from the keystone of each was suspended a pure white bell. The bridal party drove up at the church door before the din on the noontime bells had died away and while the well-known but always inspiriting music filled the church the bridal procession, three abreast, marched down the center aisle. Captain G. L. Edie, U. 8. A.; Lieutenant Charles G. Lyman, U. 8. A.; Lieutenaut L. R. Burgess, U. 8. A.; Lieutenant R. C. Croxton, U. 8. A.; Lieutenant Thomas W. ‘Winston, U. 8. A., and Lieutenant 8. A. Cloman, U. 8. A., in their capacity as ushers, led the way, and surely no bridal party could desire moreimposing or hand- some heralds. Each usher was in full- dress uniform and their generous display of gold braid, epaulettes and buttons and gleaming swords reflected flickering sunbeams from their path, On approaching the altar the party was met by Bishop Nichols and Rev. Robert Ritchie and without any delay sverything was in readiness for the ceremony. The bride looked as composed as though getting married were an every-day occur- rence. She was simply bnt beautifull gowned in heavy white satin, with higi corsage and long sleeves. A little rich lace at the throat and cuffs was the only relief. - She wore no jewels. She was eszorted by her father, irom whose hands her future husband received her. Miss Lucy King, the' dainty little maid of honor, is a cousin of the bride. She wore a white mousseline de soie gown and her head was uncovered with the excep- tion of a tulle veil fastened with a diamond pin. The bridesmaids were dressed in ink. Their hats were trimmed with urge ostrich feathe: 1 all being of the sa: elicate tint. They were Miss Ida Belle Palmer and Miss Jessie Glascock, of Oakland; Miss Ella Morgan and Miss Eleanor Wood, of San Francisco; Miss Luita Booth of Piedmont, and Miss Hamilton of Santa Monica. The groom was in the uniform of a ca; tain of the United States army, his title of colonel being derived from his 'National | | RESIDENCE. 31 4N 9 = o AL, THE BANQueT L) 4 2 '%’fi" = Like the decorations at the church it was all the design of Mrs. Isaac Requa, who carried out the military idea to perfection. In the tent were several round tables, each one seating abouta dozen persons. At the table where sat Colonel and Mrs. Long were Captain Maus, Mrs. Glascock, Dr. Edie, Miss Morgan, Lieutenant Wins- ston, Miss Wood, Lieutenant Croxton, Miss Booth, Lieutenant Burgess, Miss Palmer, Lieutenant Cloman, Miss Hamil- ton, Lieutenat Lyman, Miss King. The Deux Temps Club, of which Mrs. Long was a member, occupied the nearest two tables. At the other tables were seated over 300 distinguished guests. In the mansion the many valuable pres- ents were displayed. They were as nu- merous as the friends of the colonel and his bride. Late this afterncon Colonel and Mrs. Long degarufl. but kept their destination secret. It is probable, that they may be- come permanent residents of Oakland on their return. YOUTHS’ DIRECTORY. High Tea Held at the Booth of “The * Pines.”” This is the closing week of the Fair being held to aid the Youths’ Directory, and the crowds are increasing nightly. Yesterday afternoon there was a special feature in the form of a high tea given in the artistically decoratei booth, ‘‘The Pines.” There was a splendia attendance to enjoy the musical programme and the refreshments, - Mrs. Dr. Spitzy and Mrs. Wand sang charmingly the duet from ‘‘La Giaconda.’ Miss Von Bredul, a pupil of the Berlin Conservatory, favored the audience with two numbers, but the gem of the after- noon was the solo by Mrs. Dr. Spitzy, with violin obligato by Miss Knox. Mrs. Payne sang three times, amd, after a gnealullg one fan dance by the O'Shau- nessy children, the grognmma closed with'a song by Mr. O’Brien. The ladies are particularly grateful to Professor Cruells and Signor Ziliani, who accom- panied the soloists. — ¢ Stanley’s Official Bulletin.’’ D. 8. Stanley and Edward P. Fish, having assumed control of the publication hitherto known a&s “Strong’s Official Bulletin,” have changed the name to ‘‘Stanley’s Official Bulle- tin,” an1 will hereafter present each month an the next general election? Garret Mec- Enerney filed a petition in the Supreme Court yesterday which indirectly raises this interesting question. * The petition is that of William Oraig, Joe Hamilton, 8. I. Allard, M. R. Merritt, J. W. Martin, J. V. Webster, Daniel Mc- Kay, C. W. Thresher and D. T. Fowler, who are the Presidential electors on the Democratic-Populist ticket under the fusion plan. They ask that a writ of man- date may beissued to compel L. H. Brown, as Secretary of State of California, to cer- tify the nomination of the petitioners as electors representing the Democratic party and People’s party conjointly in one group. This means that after the name of each nominee for the position of elector will be placed the letters D. and P. As they will get some votes from both parties, the re- sult will not show the proportion of votes cast by either party 'should the writ be granted. In the absence of such a show- ing by segregated party votes the Demo- cratic Yarty may be compelled at the next general election to get the names of its candidates on the ticket by petition, and the same may apply to the Populists. The petitioners also attack the regularly nominated candidates for Presidential electors on the National Democratic ticket, naming them and asking that, pending the hearing of this application. the re- spondent may be directed to make no cer- tification of the mominations of Clay W. Taylor, Thomas B. Bond, James X. O'Brien, John Rosenfeld, Jeremiah Lynch, Charles Anderson, John Roth, Robert T. Hayne and L. B. Hakes as Presidential electors by the National Democratic part{. The petition sets up that ‘“‘neither said electors nor the persons by whom they were nominated, nor the organization with_which they affiliate, has any right, license or suthority whatever to appro- priate or take said name’ (Democratic rty). Then ti.ealarm of the Bryanites r:mnn\ielhd in the foilowing: “To permit the use of the same (name) will tend to confuse the voters of this State and cause a great many votes to be cast for said nine electors last named which the voters by whom they will be cast intended and desired should be cast for your petitioners, viz.: for the repre- sentatives of the regular Democratic entire change of matter devoted exclusively to the best interests of those who live and do business in Marin, Sonama, Lake, Mendocino and Humboldt counties and of the San Fran- | cisco aud North Pacific Railway. Messrs. Stanley and Fish contemplate mln{ improve- ments o their publication, and will endeayor to make it ope of the handsomest of its kind anywhere to be found.

No saction was taken WOMAN’S LEAGUE. An Evening of Speeches, Entertainment, Music and Song. The Woman’s State Central Republican Club held its weekly meeting last night in Judge Groezinger’s courtroom. The presi- dent, Mrs. Sadie L. Ballou presided. The speakers of the evening were T. O’Brien, J. J. Stevens and Marcus Mayver. Mrs. Wills, president of the Woman’s Republican Club in Oakland, delivered a few well chosen remarks and Mrs. Ballon spoke * on “Republicanism _Amongst omen,” declaring that the Republican party in its convention had been the only party to recognize them. Mrs. G. W. Spencer and Miss Eila Ellis contributed to the musical part of the programme. A committee of young ladies was ap- pointed to carry the greetings of their club to General Butterworth, the distin- guished Eastern speaker. The ladies bave in hand the formation of a drill corps and next Wednesday even- ing will give a social at the Windsor Hotel parlors. After the meeting the club ad- journed in a body to attend the session of Leland Staford Camp No. 2 at Kobler & Chase Hall. Sued for an Accounting. F.
