THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1896. THEY DONT KNOW OF MY COERCION Popfilists Issued a Mani- festo That Has No Foundation. President Carleton Johnson Not in Possession of Any Facts. " BURNETTE G. HASKELL'S WORDS Preamble and Resolutions Drawn and Vouched For by This We.l- Known Agitator. At a recent meeting of the County Ex- ecutive Committee of the People’s party in the City and County of San Franciscoa long-winded preamble, with a lot of whereases, was adopted, setting forth that they believed that coercion is to be exercised or election day for the purpose 12 votes for Major McKinley, the Republican nominee for President. A copy of the document was. sent to THE CALL, and because of its remarkable con- tents the matter was considered worthy of an investigation. * The accusation specifically mentioned the Southern Pacific Company and the Market-street Railway Company, and in order to give it a grand sweep—sufficient toencompass the earth—the words “and other corporations” were added. The manner in which this alleged pro- posed coercion is to be carried out, ac- cording to the Populistic idea, is an old scheme—a chestnut, in fact—and has been talked of before every election that has oc- curred since the adoption of the Austra- lian bailot system, but never heard of after the votes arecounted. The idea may be clearly explained by quoting the words * of the preamble: WHEREAS, We are informed and believe that these corporations have instructed their em- ployes that they must vote for McKinley, mo- nopoly and millionairism, and have with devilish ingenuity notified ‘each man that he must, in order to show that he has carried out the imstruction of his slavemaster, write in his - own handwriting upon the bailot that he shall cast at the next election his own or some other name for some office, thus showing exactly how he voted, this in violation of the secrecy of the ballot; and whereas, we regard this as the most infamous attack yet made upon the fundamental liberties of Amcrican citizens; and whereas, such an attempt to coerce and compel the judgment and action of the elect- ors of this commonweaith is a shame, an out- rage and & disgrace heretofore unknown in American history; therefore be it Resolved, 1 , the eXecutive commiitee | of ihe County Commitiee of the People’s party of tne City and County of San Francisco, rep- .Tesenting ten thousand electors of this muni- cipality, protest sgainst such coercion. Resolved, jurther, That our Registration Committee, Which has appointed in every pre- cinctof this City two election officers pledged 10 an honest count, be ana they are hereby | instructed to carefully scrutinize everv ballot | as it is counted, and to compare the same with the polling list, and if they shall find that any sppreciable Dumber of railroad em- s have yielded to this tyrannous de- mand and have written upon their bajots names of people, put there simply (o identity theif votes, that then théy shall report the facts in detail at once to this committee. The document closes with a threat to indict and punish all who may transgress in the manner outlined, and in the case ot -corporations to proceed against them for .the forfeiture of their charters under the purity of election laws. . Chairman Carleton H. Johnson and Secretary George D. Gillespie signed this remarkable effusion. in order to learn what information they have on which to base their alleged belief that coercion of voters is intended a CALL reporter visited those gentlemen at the rooms of the Peo- ple’s party in the Murphy building, corner of'Market and Jones streets, yesterday. :“Mr. Johnson can probably teill vou about that matter,” suggested Mr. Gilles- pie, and Mr. Johnson was first asked what facts he had 1n his possession that would justify the promuigation of such a proc- lamation. : “To tell the truth, I was not present when that resolution was adopted by the committee. I was under the weather that evening, and not feeling very well did not | attend the meeting of the committee. I understand that the resolution was pre- sented and vouched for by Mr. Burnette G. Haskell.” **Was it adopted by the committee?” was asked. “I was so informed.” “You signed it, did you?” , peNigs.’! 219, carving set 174, silver spoon 149, bust of George Washington '3, lamp 93, yellow pillow . clematis plllow 57, gold-handled whip 61, lace curtains 18, picture of the Sacred Heart 80, scene on the Russian River 13, extension table 58.

J0HN RILEY'S GRATITUDE a It Is Shown in the Pretty Story of a Church Window. Incident of the Wreck of the Steamer City of Chest=r Recalled by a Gift to St, Andrew’s Church. 8t. Andrew’s Church, Oakiand, has been the recipient of several beautiful stained- | glass windows. The main or chancel wincow, which is divided into three lan- cets, will contain in the center an artistie figure of St. Andrew, with the emblem of his martyrdom. The victure 1s sur- rounded by a frame of Gothic architecture | and has two side lance:s of a grisaille pat- | tern containing emblems of the Holy | Spirit and Agnus Dei respectively. Across | the base of the three lancets is the inserip- | tion: “In memoriam Mr. and Mrs. John | Riley.” | An interesting story attaches to this par- | ticular window, which is the main one of | St. Andrew’s Church. James Riley of e e ol == _— NN { 5 2 [ e = e “Did the committee just take Mr. Has- kell’s statement for all that the document contains?” “Ob, I guess not. I suppose they dis- cussed it some. I wasn’t present, asI told you before.” At this point Mr. Gillespie took up the conversation. He said that he believed there are a thousand men at least who had been threatened with coercion, but he 1 wouldn’t give a single name. His own brother-in-law had been threatened with discharge, he said, if he did not march in the McKinley parade to-day (Saturday), but he wounldn’t tell his name, either, for fear he would lose his job. Thus this marvelous bugaboo flattened out, so that the only man of whose coer- cion the slightest clew can be obtained is Mr. Gullespie’s brother-in-law, and even bis name cannot be learned in order to find out whether he is in the list of regis- tered voters. Mr. Haskell is considered among agita- tors to be a lawyer and among lawyers he is deemed to be a noisy agitator. He is a rabid talker and writer on certain phases of socialistic affairs and is seldom regarded as level-headed where practical matters of every-day lite are under discussion. Of course if Mr. Haskell wished to mark bis ballot in the way hesaysthe ‘‘coerced”’ men must mark theirs he might *‘write his own or some other name on the ballot he ehall cast for some office,” and by getting a few others to do the same an impression might be spread thatthe accusation in the 1esolution was well founded; but of course Mr. Haskell would hardly oo that. It would not be found out until after elec- tion and then it would be too late to be of any use to Mr. Haskell or those who sym- pathize with him either in sentiments or methods of political warfare, SACRED HEART PRIZES.

The Chester which was also Mr. Riley's destination. After the wreck Mr. Riley found himself penniless, for he had ma: e the mistaKe of carrying all the money he possessed in a satchel, instead of getting a draft on| Eureka. The catchel with its little sack of gold went to the bottom of the bay. 0 this predicament he recached Eureka on another steamer and there made him- gelf known to the Rev. Mr. Hulme, a min- ister in that city. M:. Hulme took him under his proteciion and found him em- ployment. Buhscquentli the friendly pastor moved 10 Oukland, where he is now rector of St. Andrew’s. Then Mr. Riley returned to San Francisco, and his attachment to Mr. Hulme caused him to move to Oakland so that he might attend St. Andrew’s Church. When the rector spoke of his wish to repiace the plain old windows of tihe church.with stained- glass ones, Mr. Riley, without a moment’s hesitation, presented the triple chancel window, which is one-of the handsomest of its kina in Qakland. The window is the desigu of Thomas Butterworth of this City.

Caution to Beware of Mistakes in Marking the Ballot. LURKING ANARCHY IS DREADED \ Designing Po iticians May Seek to Obtain Support fcr the Chicago Nominez. The sound money Democrats of Cali- fornia have recently become aroused to the danger which they think threatens their Presidential electoral ticket in this State on account of mistakes that voters are liable to maXke on election day. 1t is believed that on account of two Democratie tickets being on the official ballot some true and patriotic Democrats, who abhor anarchy, Populism and repu- diation, and who would prefer to vote for sound money.may be deluded into cast- ing their tickets for Bryan and Sewall- Watson, when in fact they wish to be recorded in favor of Palmer and Buckner. ! In order to guard against any such mis- take the executive committee of the Na- tional Democratic party has been sending out circulars warning voters to be on their guard, and not to vote for Bryan Pres.dential electors, just because they happen to be lubeled *Democrat” on the official ballot, but to pass down the list of names until they reach the National Dem- ocratic Presidential electors. Below will be found a copy of one of the circulars that has been sent broadcast throughout the State: PALMER AND BUCKNER, | Defenders of their party’s faith and of thelr | country’s honor. DEMOCRACY, ATTENTIONY | VOTE FOK THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY. That means a vote for honest money, an hon- est dollar for every man, no repudiation of our debts, the maintenance of the credit and faith | of our Nation, one law and one constitution for the poor man and for the rich man, for the | North and South, for the East ana West. | VOTE FOR THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PARTY, | Organized in repudiation of the Bryanism, Aligeldism afd Tillmanism of the Chicago Deinocratic platform. and preserve the unity and integrity of the principlesdear to Democra- | cy. Lot the true and loyal Demociacy repudiate the Populistic heresies of the Chicago plaiform and vote for the NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC ELECTORS: Clay W. Taylor of Shasta County, Thomas B. Bond of Lake County. James K. O'Brien of Yuba County, John Rosenfeld of San Fran- cisco, Jeremiah Lynch or San Francisco, Charles Anderson of Santa Barbara County, John Roth of Tulare County, Robert Y. Hayne | of Sen Mateo County, L. B. Hakes of San Diego County. Members of the committee feel that the names of the gentlemen on this ticket form sufficient guaranty of the merit of the cause which they represent, and they deem it necessary to put forth this warn- ing lest voters may be imposed on by | scheming politicians in the interest of Mr. | Bryaa and his double-tailed Vice-Presi- | dential kite. In the past week a great many encour- aging letters have been received from dif- ferent parts of the State by the managers of the Democratic sound money campaign in California. From all directions hopeful tidings are coming. In some of the smaller towns of the northern part of the State Bryanism appeared to have gained some headway soon after the nominations were made, but as the campaign of educa- tion progresses t.ere has been a percepti- ble diminution of the current of opinion | in that direction, and Democrats of the old school are lining up for sound money and National honor and prosperity, just | as it was expected they would as soon as | Palmer and Buckner were put in the field. | This change of sentiment is duein great | part to the excellent service performed by the literary bureau of the National Demo- ‘ cratic party, with headquarters in the | Mills building. Nearly a million pieces of campaign literature have been dis- tributed by the committee, and the eager- ness of the people for this kind of readin, matter indicates clearly that the Demo- | cratic party in California has within its to practically disrupt that organization, thus guaranteeing the Republican party a larger plurality over its divided opponent | than it could possibly hope to score if the Democratic forces presented a solid front. All the elements of success lead Mc- | Kinleyward and shrewd politicians everywhere are convinced that the cham- pion of honest money and American pro-4 tection will sweep the State with victory such as was never before known in Cali- fornia. COMPARISON OF IDEALS, Rabbi Voorsanger Considers Jewish and Christian Beliefs. He Avows His Faith in the Unity of | Creeds When One Prayer Will Suifice. Rabbi Voorsanger delivered a lecture Friday evening at the Temple Emanu-El, on Butter strect, before a large congregs- tion. The lecture was the first of a series | of discourses on a comparison of Christian | and Jewish 1deas of life. The eloquent lecturer said that despite the tremendous amount of light which the world bas received in the past fifty years there still exists the grossest ignorance among the masses of the people about Judaism. To the generality of t..e people, he added, the history of Israel is a closed book, ending with the last scene in the passion on Calvary. Representations which have become a part of Christian ed- ucation, so Rabbi Voorsanger said, have created a good deal of unrest and wrong opinions of Judaism. Christianity is the las: revelation and has come to be re- garded in this teaching the only means of salvation by which humanity may ever reach the throne of God. “The world of fifty vears ago differs from the world of to-day,” continued the speaker. ‘‘Anexamination of Christianity is absolutely impossible without an in- vestigation ‘into Judaism, its language, 1 turgy, literature and laws, Jesus ot Nazareth was a Jew, his aposties were Jews, the ethics taught by them were Jewish ethics. The maxims taught by Jesus were maxims taught by Jewish rabbis. The ideals taught by the Jews in that time were the selt-same ideals taught before ti.e vossibility of a universal Christianity eyer arose.” Rabbi Voorsanger then showed in what respects the ideals of Jewish and Christian faith were alike. He began by defining the meaning of the word Messiah as a titie of courtesy addressed by Jews todignitaries who were anointed, and is the same as the English word Christ, which means the anointed. Unlike other religions which believed that the golden age existed in tue dim past, the principle of the Jewish idea is that the golden age is in the distant fuiure; that man was born good and per- fect and has power to raise: himseif in goodness; that he isrising from one high plane to another. And when risen to the highest pinnacle of mentality be will be able to see his god. Among the nations that have suffered most will be seen the ideals of human life. “You must go to Israel, the down-trodden and oppressed, to see it,” exclaimed the eloquent rabbi. “‘Noneof the ideals of the prophet are as yet realized. In all of the prophesies we read, ‘It shall come to pass in the latter days.’ While one smail sect of Jews held that the Messiah must be divine, nota single prophet or sage ever consented to such a proposition. Thedeparture from that ideal has been the difference between Jews and Christians.” The Messianic prayer of Israel is that in which Israelites remember their dead. It contains the words “Thy kingdom come.” *OQur Father in Heaven” is the Kadish of the Christians, This is the common ground, and the rabbi declared his faith that this will be the prayer when people shall not confess different gods. It is sn ideal shared by Christian and Jew alike. S READY FOR IRVESTMENT, Vast Sums of Money in the Banks of San Fran- c'sca. McKinley’s E ection Will Cause the Cash to Be Invested in Busi- ness Enterprises Bbankers and financial men of San Fran- cisco assert that business plans and new enterprises wait on the result of the elec- tion next Tuesday. The amount of cap- ital awaiting investment is unusually large. Bankers do_not care to give out definite statements regarding new enter- prises in view, but they freely acknowl- edze that the reserves of money are extra- ordinary. William Alvord, president of the Bank of California, was asked to give an estimate of the amount of money wait- ing on the result of the election for in- vestment in business plans and new en- terprises. He replied that no one could accurately state the amount, and doubted if it could be approximated. He was sure that the announcement of McKinley’s election would release a vast amount of money now on deposit in the commercial banks, and large sums locked up 1n the saie de- posits. When contidence is restored the men who have locked up their coin will bring it out to get 6 per cent interest. Apart from the money going out to move the crovs there is little doing. Plansana enterprises of a bpusiness character are held 1n suspense awaiting theresult of the election. The same story is told aithe London, Paris and American Bank. Charles Alt- schul, the manager, could not estimate how much money was waiting investment on the decision of the election next Tues- day, but he directed aitention to the fact that the reserve on hand in his bank was 70 per cent of the deposits, although the usual accommodations had been extended. The bank would be well satistled with a reserve of 40 per cent. There was some in- vestment of money to move the crops, but apart from that there was little de- mand from legitimate commercial enter- prise. Philis N. Lillienthal, manager of the Anglo-Californian Bank, said to his knowi- edge business transactions involving the legitimate use of $1,000,000 nad been turned down by reason of remote doubt as to the result of the Presidentiai election. Ha was of the opinion ‘that if McKinley snould be elected by an overwheiming or a decisive majority confidence wouald be restored in commercial circles. The money now held 1n reserve wouia be re- leased for profitable investments. Adam Grant, president of the Donohoe- Kelly Banking Company, one of the ablest and best known of San Francisco mer- chants, entertains the belief that the elec- tion of McKinley would re-establish conii- dence in business circles and bring about a much better state of affairs. Samuel G. Murphy, president of the First National Bank, says that his institu- uon has 70 per cent of its deposits in - re- serve. He acknowledges that there is little demand for money to invest in new and legitimate commercial enterprises. Bankers who do not care to be quoted mention that large sums in coin’ have been withdrawn from -tbe banks and stored in the safe deposit boxes. Siill the amount of idle coin neld by the banks is prodigious. Depositors will not take any chances while there is the least danger of Bryan’s election. Next Tuesday night when the returns begin to come over the wires announcing McKinley majorities and giving positive ussurance of Republican triumph plans of investment will be proposed. The money now 1dle in the banks and vaults | wili soon be brought out for investment in enterprises of inaustrial development. A CHARITABLE FETE. An Evening of Music and Pleasure in Aid of the Deaconesses’ Home. A musical and donation party in aid of the Deaconesses’ Home was given by Mrs. H. J. Lask at the residence of Mrs., E.

Gibson, Miss Hermoine Lask, Mi Anna Ayres, Miss Jennie Gibson, Miss Madelaine Wise, Miss Josie Crowley and Miss Frankie Hewiepp. The musical partof the programme was quite the feature of the evening. The California quartet and a qfinrtet composed of Miss J. Gibson, Miss H. Lask, H. B. Smith ana Mr. Tillingbast rendered several delightful and popular_selectiofis. | Solos were sung by Baroness Von Myer- | nich, Miss C. Clough, Miss J. Gibson, Miss H. Lask and H. B.Smith. Cbarles Meyer contributed a zither solo, A. H. Kayton a violin solo and several Erauy airs were played on the mandolin by S, Adelstein. Professor Schultze was the accompanist. A fishpond containing no end of appro- priate giits was presided over by Miss Lizzie Boobar and added much to the mer- riment of the evening. Refreshments were served at a nominal fee an{ many donations of money, clothing and gro- ceries were received. — e e—— NOT EDWARD W. HULL. J. D. Grant of This City Denies That His Brother-in-Law Is Dend. The following dispatch appeared in yes- terday’s issue: _ i ST.

Louis Janin Jr., after over two years in Australia, has returned to his home in California and is being greeted by his friends. He registered at the Occidental Friday, and had considerable to say in reference to his experiences abroad. Mr. Janin went to Australia almost un- known, if by never having visited a coun- try is to make one unknown. He travel d over the great mining districts, examining carefully into their gold resources. Finally he got control of aleading mine in New South Wales, and then in mining parlance “took it to London.”” While there he sold it for a Jarge figure, after remaining some months. He 1s now on his way back to Austfalia, but will not sail immediately, since he wants to meet his friends, after his long absence. Mr. Janin says there ds consid- erable interest in London in Califorma gold mines. Investors, however, want good properties. After the election probably they will buy more freely. The London Exploration Company is buying more properties by far on the Pacific Coast than any other company. It already owns the great mines of Alaska, one or two big properties in Mexico and elsewhere and is doing some big development work on roperties secured on the mother lode in Eull[omim Mr. Janin, awhile before going to Aus- tralia, went to New York in connection with impertant mining properties. While there he began writing technical matter for the New York Engineering and Min- ing Journal. He at length became man- aging editor, and held that position for a year. " He was born in Virginia City, and is yet quite a young man to have made such successes. His father, Louis Janin Sr., said last night that considering he had gone to Australia and London almost on his own account, and had succeeded with- om’ any powerful aid, he had done very well. INDICTED DEPOSITORS. Seven Men Accused of Libeling Judge Hebbard Arraigned. The seven People’s Bank depositors re- cently iudicted by the Grand Jury for publishing an alleged %ibel about Judge Hebbard were yesterday arraigned ‘before Judge Daingerfield. But two of the accused men were pres- ent, T. H. McCarthy and Thomas 8. ‘Williams, the others being represented by Barclay Henley. Julius Kahr, who ap- peared as special counsel for the prosecu- tion, insisted that the pleas of the in- dicted men be heard at once, asthe offense of which they are accused is part of a cor- rupt political scheme to defeat Judge Hebbara at the coming election. Judge Daingerfield, however, refused to do_as Kahn asked, holding that the accused are entitled to two days in which to plead and that anyhow the crowded condition of his calendar would prevent the hearing of the case until after the election. The matter was, therefore, continued until next ‘Wednesday. B e — The average depth of the Atlantic is two and a hLalf miles. NEW TO-DAY. e Prof.W. H.
