THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1896. OLD MONTEREY'S GREATEST RALLY Poriuguese - Americans in Line for an Honest Currency. Cheer for the Policy Which Means Open Mills and Employment. JOIN THE McKINLEY ARMY. Many Converts Made at a Meeting A ldressed by D: Lemos of Hiywards MONTEREY, Car., Oct. 23.—The great- est political rally in the history of Monte- rey was that in the opera-house to-night under the auspices of the McKinley and Hobart Club. The speaking was in the Portuguese language. From the enthusi- asm manifested it is safe to say that his- toric old Monterey will give a large ma- jority for sound woney and protection. Jacob R. Leese presided and introduced A. M. Martin of Watsonville, who spoke | to the Portuguese voters in regard to the duty they owed their chosen country to support the nominees of the Republican party. The speaker of the evening was| Hon. Francisco Ignacio de Lemos of Hay- wards, who heid his audience for an hour and a balf, explaining the principles as laid down in .the Republican platform The speaker has an eloquent deiivery, combined with- humor, and the audience regretted when ne had finished his dis- course. In regard to the money question he remimnded his hearers that Portugal was | working under a gold standard. The monetary unit there was the milreis, its value in United States coin being $1 08. | 'he ratic of gold to silver was one to 14.08 of himited tender silver. As a large pro- portion of the Portuguese in the Eastern States were factory employes, it was for fit, he said, to vote for the party | d not only cause the factory to | be reopened, but would erect others. The speaker ex;lained the fallacy of the free and anlimited coinage of silver idea and showed his aunaience that as contracts heretofore made payable in gold were to be paid in that specie and as Congress could pass retroactive laws, -ald would flow out of the country and a Jld not be secured without a premium. The meeting adjourned with rousing cheers for McKinley and Hobart. Many in the audience had been made converts to the grand old party’s principles, At ann ONTAKIO GKEETS BARNES, The Distriot Atiorney Appeals Agaimst Sectional Agitation. ONTARIO, CarL, Oct. 23.—The most enthusiestic rally of the campaign was held here iast night, the occasion being the appearance of W. 8. Barnes of San Francisco. The McKinley marching club | engaged in a torchlight parade ard fancy drill, which was witnessed by a large crowd of people. The hall was packed to the doors when Mr. Barnes began his address. He said: “Did the Republican party decide to open the gates of Castle Garden to the pauper labor of foreign countries, or the mints of this Nation to all the silver of the world ; did it declare that the salvation of the people depended npon the free coinage of silver; did it arrange class against class, section against section and business against business, then we would all say, ‘Letthe Republican party die” But if the Repubiican party stands for no North, no Sonth, no East, no West, tut only” for the protection of all the people, carrying in the forefront the banner of a reunited country, whose clinging folds wrap half the world, over the best fed, the best clothed people on earth, then we should say: ‘Long life to the Republican party, and we shall be Republicans.’”” At the conclusion of Mr. Barnes’ re- marks two beautiful silk banne:s were presented to the McKinley Marching Ciub by the Republican ladies of Ontario. e e e LOS ANGELES MEETINGS. Speeches Delivered by Colonel de Leur and Congressman McLachlan. LOS ANGELES, Car., Oct. 23.-- Colonel Albert de Leur of Wisconsin delivered an able speech at Hazard’s Pavilion this evening to a large audience. Colonel de Leur said that he had noted with special interest a recent cablegram w:red to a Democratic newspaper urging the im- portance of Bryan’selection on the ground that it would greatly benetit the Kuropean farmer. “Why,"” inquired the speaker, “were not such words used in r.lation to Major Mc- Kinley’s election? Because those Counts who framed that cablegram knew that it is the business of the Republican eandi- date and those who stand with him in tnis campaign to look after the interests of the American farmer—not the European.”” Congressman McLachlan spoke in the Republican poriable tent on Central ave- nue this evening. He had lately returzed from a tour of the Sixth Congressional District, wiherein he made speeches in Santa Cruz, Monter~y, S8an Louis Obispo, Banta Barbara and Ventura counties, and he brings the best possible news in respect to the campaign in these counties. The speaker said that the disaffection from the Democratic party wassomething amaz- ing all through his district. Moreover, he observed that, within the past few days, a splendid number of old-line Demccrats had come out for McKinley and sound money. e FE.R SOME ONE EERED. 1 qual Suffragists Find a Seeming Dis- crepancy in the Ballot. LOS ANGELES, Carn, Oct. 23.—The women at the equal suffrage headquarters bere are in consternation over what they fear is a discrepancy in the ballot which voters are to cast at the coming election arnd in the proclamation of Governor Budd relatine to the election. In the proclama- tion the suffrage amendment is designated as “amendment number six,” wkile on the sample baliot it is designated as *Assembly amendment number eleven.”” But this is not all. The procla- mation stipulates that each ballot used at such election must contain, written or printed thereon, the words: “For the amendment num ber six’’ and “‘against the amendment number six,” while on the ballot, after giving the substance of each roposed amendment, are *'yes’ and *‘no,” Eul not the words quoted in the proclama- tion. i PORTLAND'S POLITIOAL FEUD. Rival Police Forces May Clash on Eleo- tion Day. PORTLAND, Okr., Oct. 23.—Ex-Chief of Police Joun W, Minto, assisted by several ex-captamnsof police, has opened a recruit- ing office to enroll for election-day duty number several hundred and will look to the interests of Republican voters; that is to say, thev will allow none of the in- timidation threatened by the Bryanites. Sheriff Frazier will swear in all these men as deputy sheriffs and as many more as the ex-chief will reccommend. As an off-et it is authoritatively re- ported that Mayor P-nnoyer hasin reserve 1000 men who will perform police duty on election day. IOWA HILL INVADED. Republicans From Far and Near Par- ticipate in a Demonstration. COLFAX, CAL., Oct. 23.—People from the surroundin: country thronged to the prosperous mining town of Iowa Hill to- night to hear ex-Governor H. H. Mark- ham and Hon. Tirey L. Ford. The gen- tlemen were met at Colfax by Hon. ]: H. Neff with a special conveyance. Soon they entered on a nine-mile drive over a rough mountain road to Iowa Hili, fol- lowed by a large crowd, in which were many women. All available teams were pressed into service, and many persons who could not secure seats in the wagons walked. After the arrival of the speakers at l.X‘ovu ill a torchlight procession, in which the go]lf:x o-nd §‘,,e§x Hill McKinley clubs pariicipated, paraded the streets to the tune of anvils and giant powder. Mr. Markham made an eloquent address in support of McKinley, sound mouey and protection, and as he proceeded the more enthusiastic grew the crowd. ' 5 The presentation of *Ford, the miners champion,”’ as he is known throughout this section, was the occasion of2 tremen- dous appause. His address was pointed and eloquent. ‘Ford’s all right—he knows what's best for the miners! shouted men in the audience. Mr. Neif delivered a brief and pointed address in support of the protective policy. The mecting adjourned with three cheers for McKinley, which fairly shook the walls. D SANTA CRUZ DIMONSTRATION. Congressman Maguire Talks on the Pacific Roads’ Funding Bill, SANTA CRUZ. Can.,, Oct. 23. — The Democratic County Committee planned well for to-night’s Democratic rally. Hon. Jumes G. Maguire spoke in the pavilion to 2500 persons. He was intro- duced by Lieutenant-Governor Jeter, and went straight into the discussion of the refunding bill. He said this bill would | cost the Government $240,000.000 to repay the stealings of the Pacific railroads. When he mentioned Congressman John- son’s name, hisses were heard. These monopolies, he said, should be subor- dinated to the law, and meet their obliga- | tions as private citizens. The course of the Southern Pacific Railroad was one of crime and the refunding bill was a bill seeking by legalized means to compound a fel M ire favored a bill limiting the powers of the Federal courts. He de- nounced “Government by injunction.” Passing to the tariff question, he dis- missed it with the remark that it is not worthy of argument in this campaign. The free and unlimited coinage of silver was the point, he said. Silver was the poor man’s money and gold represented McKinley, Wall street and Mark Hanna. The main point of Congreasman Maguire's speech was a eulogy of William J. Bryan. Do e TWU SPEECHES AT BSAN DIEGO, General Chipman and Judge Campbell Talk to Hundred SAN DIEGO, Car., Oct. 23. —General N. P. Chipman and Hon. James N. Campbell addressed an overflowing meeting at Mc- Kinley Hall to-night. A number of the leading men of the city acted as vice- presidents. General Chipman was the first speaker. He gave an exhaustive re- view of the financial history of the coun- try, and the present Democratic policy of repuaiation and dishonor was shown upin clear eolors. He was enthusiastically ap- planded. Judge Campbell devoted his time toa general discussion of present 1ssues, utter- ing patriotic sentiments that caught his audience and carried it along with great outbursts of applause. At the close of the meeting three cheers were given for Mc- Kinley, Hobart and liberty, when pro- posed by Judge Campbell, waving a hand- kerchief. The sentiment here is conceded to be daily erowing stronger for McKinley ana sound money. San Diego no longer rests under the disadvantage of being a strong- hold of repudiationists. e JUDGE HUNT AT COURTLAND Explains Republican Politics to a Large | Audience. COURTLAND, Car, Oct. 23.—A large and enthusiastic meeting of Republicans was addressed at this place last night by Judge A. B. Hunt of Alameda. He showed in a clear and forcible manner that the Republican party was the friend of silver and that the living issue in this campaign was protection. Judge Hunt spoke on Wednesday night 10 an inter- ested audience at Franklin, and to-night at Walnat Grove. On Saturday night he speaks at Isleton, in :his county.

Believed to Have Robbed the People’s Vaults of Nearly $100,000. ARRESTED AND IMPRISONED, The Defsulter Piaced Under Heavy Bail, Which He Is Unable to Advance. REDDING, CaL., Oct. 23.—The begin- ning of the end in the affairs of William Jackson, Shasta County’s defauiting Treasurer, was witnessed this eveningand to-night the embezzling Treasurer occu- pies a cell in the county prison. Woen Jackson's shortage was exposed by his concocted story to the effect thata robbery of the treasury had been at- tempted and that he was quite seriously hurt in the encounter with the robbers his bondsmen began an investigatien and, at a casual inspection of the books and ac- counts placed the deficiency at $27,000. This afternoon the report of the expert hired to examine the books brought Jack- son’s shortage up to such an alarming figure that his bondsmen became uneasy. As the books and report now stand Jackson is an embezzler to the extent of $40,000 and it is believed that amount will | reach §60,000 and perhaps $100,000 by the end of the week, when the expert's report will have been completed. The embezzling had been going on for ten years past and Jackson had been enjoying the confidence of the people and at the same time spend- ing their money. Beginning with the $27,000 shortage of a month ago, each day the expert has found some new amount missing. To-night County Clerk Drynan swore to a complaint for the arrest of Jackson. The paper was placed in the hands of an officer and twenty minutes thereafter Jackson was lodged in the County Jail. Anticipating such a move and believing he would have a chance to get off on bail the defaniting Treasurer had previously arranged with a couple of local capitalists to go 1s bail to the extent of $20,000, he considering that amount would be as much as the magistrate would ask, but to-night, when he appeared befo udge Gardner, the bail was fixed at $40,000. The prisoner’s face wore a downcast look, and all hopes of freedom were lost to him, Not being able to get that amount of security he was compelled to go to jail, where he will remain until his case is disposed of. JOHN W, FOSTER IS HERE Is on His Way to the Orient on a Delicate Diplomatic Mission. Has Been Minister to Many Countries and Is an Authority on Inter. national Law. Hon. John W. Foster of Indiana, who negotiated the treaty between China and Japan at the close of the recent war, ar- rived here last night, accompanied by ister. President Arthur appointed him afterward as Minister to Spain. He served three years ana resigned, returned home and negotiated an important commercial treaty with Spain. The Senate opposed it, and President Cleveland withdrew it for further considerut on. Later Mr. Foster went to Spain in the interest of a modified treaty. For his services asa diplomat in the in- terest of China in reducing the indemnity desired by Japan he received, it is said, a fortune in itself. He served in the War of the Rebellion, and for a time afterward was editor of the Evansville (Indiana) Journal. He1s 60 years old. —————— Not a Local Man, The following letter has been received for publication: Editor Call—DEAR STR: Having seer a state- ment in the Examiner this morning that a ratification meeting was to be held at Union Hall this annmr and that the past president of International Brickiayers’ Union No. 1, which is composed of about twelve members, is to preside, and half of that membership are ex-members of our union who were expelled for violating the laws of constitution, 1 wish it understood by all union men of the different trades unions that this International Brick- layers’ Union is in no way connected with the San Francisco Bricklllen' Association, which has a membership of 250 and has been organ- ized since 1882.

M. until 3 ». M. for the purpose of meeting the presidents of all the 8an Francisco, Oakland, Alameda and Berkeley Republican clubs.and the cap- tains of the drill corps attached thereto. The Republicans of San Jose are making every effort for this occasion, as they believe the showing made will indicate the strength of McKinley in this State. RAILROADERS ARE SOLID Grand Master Sargent of the Engineers Say They Fayor McKinley. They Kacw He Wili Bring Perma- nent Prosperity by Starting th> Mills. Grand Master F. P. Bargent of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen of the United States, whose home is in Peoria, 1lI., arrived bere last night. Mr. Sargent left Illinois a week ago and came to the coast by way of New Mexico and Arizona. He has come, he says, for the purpose of conferring with representatives of the brotherkood on the Pacific coast on mat- ters of interest to the orzanization. This visit, however, he says is not of a politi- cal nature, as his position would preclude anything of that kind. “I may say, however,” he said, “‘that 1 am personally in favor of the election of Mr. McKinley, and think there is no ques- tion but the majority of the railway men are throughout the country. They believe that wim!Mr. McKinley as President con- fidence would be restored and the coun- %r‘y would soon be put on a good bu siness 8. “‘Everywhere I have zone thus far I have noticed ‘intense interest in the election. In Illinois the interest on both sidesis tense. 1 was in Chicago a week ago, and the estimates I heard there were 40,000 to 80,000 as a majority for McKinley. ‘‘From what I see I believe a larger vote will be polled this year than bas ever be- fore been known the United States. Every place men are discussing the issues. And they want facts. They will not listen to average ¥ourth of July speaking or the wavizg of the bloody shirt. he result has been thus far that men are better posted on the financial question than at any time hitherto. They have looked into the merits of the guestion. I have no doubt that many men who would ordinarily vote for free silver cannot do so because of the planks looking toward anarchy in the Democratic platform. I have heard many men say so. They feel that they cannot trust men like Tillman and others who are foremost in the sup- port oi Mr. Bryan. They fear what might result if such men were put in prominent HON. JOHN W. FOSTER, Who Negotiated the Treaty Between Japan and China, and Is Now Bound to the Orient on a Diplomatic Mission. Mrs. Foster, from Washington, D. C., and is at the Palace. The train on which he came was two hours late. Mr. Foster is on his way to Hawaii, Japan and China. It has been hitherto announced that he was going to Hawaii on a delicate diplomatic mission, but it is now stated that his real mission concerns only Jupan and China. It being late Mr. Foster declined to go into any details, ex- cept to somewhat humorously say he no- ticed one of the papers said he was going on a diplomatic trip to the Hawaiian Islands. He will sail on the Hongkong and Nagasaki steamer Peru Monday. Mr. Foster is said to receive $20,000 a year from the Chivese Government, and he has at different times been employed g\y Mexico, Belgium and other countries. or many years he has given close atten- tion to questions of international law, practicinz at Washington. In this he has world-wide distinction. It issaid that for many years he has made far more mone: each year than the President of the Un!t«g States. A He was appointed Minister te Mexico in 1873 by President Grant; was reappointed by President Hayes, lné before ll:'?:n term expired was transferred to Russia as Min. positions. Therefore, they will vote for McKinley. “Farmers want to know what they will et for their grain; wool men want to inow that they will get a livin: price for wool, and everybody wants solid business and prosperity. 1 met a wool-buyer at Trinidad who told me he expected to buy wool for 4 cents a pound. Last year, as he said, he was paying 17 and 18 cents, and he would rather pay it now than to pay 4 cents. “] was surprised as 1 came West to find how many railroad men there were for McKiniey. ery one I saw was for him. In fact, smong all classes I have found many more McKinley men than I expected. This was very gratifying to me. Mr. Bargent will be here five or six days and will return by way of the Central Pa- cific. Heis at the Lick. ————————— D. A. Macdonald Club. The regular meeting of the D. A.

Two Coaches Running Frem San Antonio to White Oaks Disappear. REIGN OF AN OUTLAW BAND. Baifles the S-arch of Posses Semt to the Mountains in Its Pursuit. SAN ANTONIO, N. M., Oct. 23.—Keeper Rice of Mountain Station, on the stage road to White Oaks, arrived on horseback to-night with the news that the men who i held up the stagecoach in the Oscure Mountains a few weeks ago are still in the hills and that they have in all probability held up two coaches within the past few days,as the Wednesday and Thursday stages are not yet in. Red Canyon is in- fested with armed men, who are lying in wait for the 8an Antonio mail. Rice came out on the road to warn the driver and to seek assistance. ‘When the stages did not put in an ap- pearance yesterday he sent a man out to look for them. The messenger while en- tering the dreary canyon was confrontea by two masked men, armed to the teetb, and turning his horse fled for his life. The men were in wait for the coach from this point, undoubtedly. These men compose a part of the band of robbers which held up the Atlantic and Pacific express a few weeks ago, when their leader was shot. Posses have been scouring the mountains for them. An- other will start from here in the morning. VELSER CHIES FRALD Claims His Wife’s Divorce Suit Is the Outcome of a Conspiracy. William M. Neilsen was yesterday be- fore Judge Daingerfield on an order to show cause why he should not pay his wife alimony pending trial of her suit for divorce. After reciting that he earns but $12 per week Neilsen filed an affidavit claiming that his wife is possessed of a separate es- tate worth over $10,000, and that she is in no need of maintenance. For a separate answer to his wife’s charges of cruelty and habitual intemper- ance the defendant says that Mrs. Neiisen is in the habit of consuming large quan- tities of chloral bydrate, “‘a most stupefy- ing and brain-destroying drug,” and of mSulging to excess in ‘“‘corner-grocery wine.”” He claims that the wrongs she ai- leges are hallucinations caused by the use of the stimulants, and that Clara A. Mc- Farland, his wife’s sister, furnishes the drugs to the plaintiff. The whole pro- ceeding, he says, is the result of a con- spiracy formed between Mrs. McFarland and his wife’s attorney, though what is the object of the combination he neglecis to state. The matter was continued until Friday next for further hearing. TWO LEPERS ESCAPE The Bindt Brothers Leave the Pest- house to Escape the City and County Hospital. The health authorities are much exer- cised over the sudden and unauthorized departure from the Pesthouse of Frank and Ernest Bindt, two of tne leperswho have been confined at the public hospital. Ever since the order recently made by the Board of Health condemning the Pesthouse came to the ears of the inmates there has been dissatisfaction, the lepers preferring to put up with the poor accom- modations of their present residence rather than to be exposed to the pubiic gaze at the City and County Hospital, No serious trouble was anticipated, however, until Thursday evening, when the Bindt brothers were missed. At 10 o’clock, on entering their room, Superintendent Keating saw that they were not on hand, and the finding of a note in the apartment confirmed his sus- picion that they had escaped. The mis- sive left stated that they did not propose to be removed to the City and County Hospital and that they had rather face the chances of making a living outside than be removed. As both are so little marked by the dread disease as to defy detection by any except experts 1t is not thoaght likely that they will be found. The police have been notitied of the escape and asked tobe on the lookout for the men. ——,—————— THE VICTOR CANTON. | 1t Brings Home Its Prize Drill Trophy ¥rom the Santa Cruz Encampment. The home-coming of the canton of San Francisco No. 5, L. 0. O, F., from | the Santa Cruz encampment last evening was a triumphant one, as the knights brought their newly won drill trophy with them. The canton, under command of General E. H. Black, Lieutenant W. 8. pPotter and Ensign J.
