The ship moved there yes- terday to loaa a general cargo, and was at 1 once prdered away because the space was required for the steamer George W. Elder. *Thellll’er is from Astoria and is loaded | with wheat. Captein Dwyer refused- to take any notice oi the order and began loading his ship. The Eider had to se-k another dock, and the trouple between the wharfinger and the captain is still un- settied. The chances are that Chief Wharfinger Root will order the Flintshire removed by one of the State fugs té-day and then *“fur”’ will fly. The ship Centennial, recently purchased by the Alaska Packers’ Association, is in a peculiar predicament. She bhas been fitted out for a run ‘to the canneries, and was to have sailed ten days sgo.

Judge Murphy | decided that a writ of prohivition would | not lie, as the SBuperyisors would not be acting judicially in the premies. He re. marked that a wris of certiorari would have been the proper proceeding. In consequence, a petition for a writ of certiorari was filed late in the afternoon. D CHRISTMAS PRESENTS Master Bakers Uranimously Ratify an Anti-Present Resolution. The Return of Staie Bread and Regu- lation of Prices Still Under - Consideration. . - . The'Master Bakers’ Protective Associa- tion met yesterday afternoon to consider the resolution adopted October 17 regard- ing the stopping of Christmas gifts, regu- “lating the price of loaves.and permitting no more stale bread Lo be returned from the branch bakeries. About seventy-five members were present. The meeting resuited in the resolution regarding "Chrisimas presents being unanimously adopted and in a commit- tee of iour being ajpointed to Investigate the propo-ition of regulatfng prices and siopping tiie return ol stale iread. g The meeting was called to order by President | Nicho.as Prost, and George Loewen immediately took the floor and made an argument against the giving of Christmas presents. George A. Rutz fol- .lowed, seconding.’ He said the practice ate far inio the bakers’ profiis, while ghere was no bnsiness on earth in which "men were expected to sell so mucn ior so little. H Charles A. Bantel wanted to know ho the weight and price of loaves could be fixed, as some custumers demanded water bread, which couid besold cheaper than milk bread. Rutz, in answer, thought water loaves might be made larger but that the price should remain unifori. The question of ratification of the reso- lution against giving Christmas presents was then put and carried without a dis- senting vote. The only question in con- nection with the proposition that excited . much discussion was how customers should be notified. Some members favored circulars, others advertising in the daily press. After much discussion pro and con the matter was left to the stand.ng committee. George A. Ruiz, J. Lerner, M. F. Wolff and John Schlichtmann were apvointed a committee’ to attend the lialian Bakers' meeting to be held November 2, at which the same questions as were discussed by the Master Bakers’ Protective Association will come up. On the question of the return of stale bread from tue branch bakeries and the rezulation of prices, George A. Rutz, Otto Falch, Charles A. Bantel and Charles Strohmeier were appoinied a committee to take the matter under consideration and report at the aext meeting to be held at Turner Hall next Tuesday, —— Ar the meeting of the Wheelmen’s Municipal Leacue, held at the rooms of the Ol&m}glc Club on Wednesday evening, Fred W. Eaton was unanimously indorsed as their candidate for Supervisor of the scon as the revenue catter Bear reaches Puget Sound. Among the most vigorous fighter is Peter Bain, who was formerly in the employ of the Pacific Sieam-whdling Company. He asserts that some of his bone has been stol-n at various times and he proposes receiving its full value. Captaip Burns, who raised the Blair- more, is now in Oregon, and he proposes getting the Glenmorag off ber present bed at the mouth of the Columbia River. Some months ago she went hard and fast on the beach during a storm and ever since the sand hasbeen silting around her. ‘When the Blairmore was successfully raised the owners of the Glenmorag cabled to Burns to see what he could do with their ship. He made an examination and decided that-the attempt was feasible. To-day the State of Calitornia will take up an immense 18-inch hawser and a 16- Sixth Ward. 3 —————— Democrats Will Assemble, The Democratic party will not have a big street parade dnring this campaign, but will have a “union” gatherin - of the clans at the Pavilion _to- morrow evening, st which Governor Budd will preside and the following great lights of fl:} -clxllvudrm speak: Honor- ables Jeffersoni G.

After reciting the fact that James G. Fair owned the property in dispute before his death and that the cross-complainant is one of the heir-at-laws of deceased and at present a part owner of the premises, Charles L. Fair, alleges thatthe document recorded on June 19, 1896, at the request and by the direction of Mrs. Craven, which paper is claimed to be a deed of gift from James G. Fair to -Nettie R. Craven, is not a genuine writing ot said James G. Fair and was not signed, executed or acknowledgea by nim. -Itis furthermore charged that no acknowledgment oi the paper was ever certified upon it by J. J. Cooney during the liletime of the million- aire. The cross-complaint further recites: That the said document is not genuine and was and is a forgery and is false, iraudulent, forgnd and counterfeit, and was made, forged and counterieited after the death of the said Jam:s G. Fair. Th tthe said certificate of acknowleogment thereon “was not and is not genuine, and was and is faise, forged and counterfeit, and was mede, forged and counterfeited and attached to said document by said J. J. Cooney after the death of said Jam s G. Fair, and afier the said J.J. Cooney had resigned as and after he had ceased to be a Notary Pubiic. That the said document and deed of gift was made, uttered and forged py the sald Nettie . Craven and the said purported certificate ‘of acknowledgment thereon was made and | forged by said J. J. Cooney at the request of Nettie R. Craven, and that said document was filed for record and caused to be recorded with the corrupt intent and purpose to cloud the title of this cross-complainant and Theresa A. Oelrichs and Virginiu Fair, and to injure their title thereto and to depreciate the market value thereof, and to compel this cross-com- plainant and them to buy his and their peace from said Netiie R. Craven and pay her large sums of money to remove said cloud. In the answer to the damage suit it is alleged that Mrs. Craven was never in possession of the property in question, and sc could-not have been damaged by ejectment. Wherefore it is prayed- that the court decree that Mrs. Craven take nothing by her suit; that the pencil aeed be declared a-forgery; that the acknowledgment be declared false and counterfeit; that the cloud be removed® from the title to the property ; that the record be annulled and declared void; tbat Mrs. Craven and her agents be restrained from eclaiming title to the property and enjoined from using the penal deed in any litigation untit after-the decision of the present suit, and that an order be made to enable the cross- complainant to examine, inspect and photograph the deed. —ee WOMEN WOGKING HAR - 1} Two and Three Daily Meetings Are Held for Woman Suffrage.

C THE CALIFORNIA WINERS | Their Local - Body Selects Its Delegates to the Con- - vention. Quartz Mines Will B: Largely Repre- sented at the Next State Gathering. When the California Miners’ Association meets in this City in convention Novem- ber 10 it will be the largest and most rep- resentative gathering of mining men ever assembled on the coast. The increased interest in the convention this year is due to the fact that the field of business will be broader than ever. Heretofore the as- sociation hasdevoted its time and ener- gies to correcting the bad’ features in the Siate and Federal laws dealing with hy- draulic mining, railroad occupancy of mineral lands, etc. At the next gathering the interests of the guartz.miner will pe considered and steps taken to improve his condition. This wasnot overlooked in the past, but the association had to take up one feature at atime in order to accom- plish anything. Now that the quariz- mining interests are to be taken in hand, miners from the hills as well as the river botioms will be present and to the full representation allowed—one delegate to each ten members of the county associa- tions. The Miners’ Association of the City and County of San Francisco yesterday held its regular annual meeting. The member- ship list showed 403 enrolled. Thereiore the association is entitled to forty dele- gates. Julian Sonntag suggested that a com- mittee be appointed to nominate -the offi- cers and delegates. Secretary Charles G. Yale thought that ten alternate delegates should be appointed. S. W. Hendy thought that the committee should be given the power to select and elect the officers and delegates. All these suggestions were adopted. 5 3 The committee appointed by the chair- man ~ consisted of Niles Searls, S. K. ‘Thornton, Julian Sonntag, Louis Sioss Jr., C. W. Cross, L. Reichling and 8. W.

CASTORIA MUSIC AND DRANI FOR THE PRES A Highly Successful En- tertainment at the Grand. Distinguished Artists Give Their Services for the Press Club. SHAKESPEARE — VAUDEVILLE, The Tabers in “Much Ado” and Jasper and Jeakins in a Circus Act. . A Big Audience. One of the most successful performances of the kind ever given in this City was the Press Club’s annual entertainment at the Grand yesterday afternoon. A large and appreciative audience was in attendance, which wisely refraired from encoring even the choicest features of the pro- gramme more than three times. As the cream of talent.at the City theaters had been skimmed for the occasion the audi- ence showed great moderation. R The programme opened almost as the clocks were striking the hour of 1:30 with® the fourth act of “Tennessee's Pardner,” from the Columbia Theater, The man- agemeht of the Grand had provided ap- propriate mountain scenery and the act aroused great interest. Charles B. Haw- kins, as the hen-pecked old-timer, at-once became a favorite and Jane Corcoran’s pretty acting as Tennessee was especially applanded. The rest:-of the company, Barr, Frank M. Kelly, Walter Rydér, Frederick Hicks, Leon Parment, Estha Williams and Annie Mortimer, did good work._ “The Golden Nuggets,” a male quartet, received the full compliment of. encores. ye g Mr, and Mrs, Taber gave a taste of their quality in the_church scene from *‘Much Ado About Nothing,” which made the audience hunger for more. They were supported by Bassett Roe, Henry Doughty, Frederic Murphy, H. A. Langdon, Podson L. Mitchell, Eugenia Woodword, Alice Parks and Katherine Wilson—some of the best.members of their company—and the staging and costuming ot the act were all that one expects irom these distinguished: artists. s . The “Zanzibar Trio,” from the ‘“Babes in the Wood,” at the Tivoli, gave promise of being encored nutil it Was.time to open the.evening performance, but Ferris Hart: man introduced a verse against encores, which had the effect of quelling further demonstrations. He was gssisted in the trio by Elvira Croix Seabrook and Maurice d’Arcy. gak Victory Bateman and Howard.Kyle, as- sisted by Frank Hatch' and Nettie Hines, appeared in the pretty, two-act drama wSweethearts.”’ . The little work gave the performers an opportunity of doing some very artistic acting. In the concert part of the programme Bernard Mollenhauer played a violin s6lo very acceptably, accompanied by Mrs. | Willard J. Batcuelder. The Press Club quartet sang two lullabies and a second encore, and R. Tiomas, tenors from the Tivoli, won warm- ap- plause for “Tom Bowling.”’ . Mr. Thomas sang in place of Frank Lincoln, who was unabie to give his musical entertainment owing to a previous engagement, . . Clayton, Jenkins and Jasper from the Orpheum gave their humorous circus rid- ing act, and Miss Josephine Gassman held the audience till the curtain went down wich her celebratea ““Coon” song. Every- thing had gone as smoothly and rapidly as | if on oiled wheels,. and it was so early for | an entertainment of tne kind to be “over that the audience seemed loath to depart. Considerable praise is dde to Leo Cooper, the stage director, assisted by Tom An- drews and Louis' A. Imbhaus, for-their -avoidance of all" “waits.”’ - Just before Miss Gassman’s song Judge Hebbard made a graceful little speech, thanking the artists who had so kindly voltnteered their services: The Judge also said some pledsant things about the newspaper profession and the press of this country. 2 S 2 . Beautifully illustrated souvenir pro- grammes were presented .to all comers, and a postseript stated that the Press Club .was indebted for the programme’s literary features to such well-known.writers as Fred 8.
