POPU LISTIG_WOES. The Discordant Elements to Be Har- i monized by “Boss’ Haskell | It is now a pretty well scknowledged | tact in Populistic circles that Burnette G. | | | Haskell occupies the position of “*boss.” kell modestly admits as much His position seems likely to prove Mr. H himsel no sinecure. First of all, the opposition say, he will | have to harmonize two discordant factions in the party, and next he will have to en- tice the white-winged dove of peace to | hover over some discordant elemenis in the faction of which he is the head. That this is no small task in itself is enced by the fact that reputable Jeaders of the party, among whom may be enumerated such men as Taylor Rogers, Dr. G. W. Daywalt and E. 8. Barney, have threatened to withdraw from active co- operation with him. Then there is J. H.

Townsend Writes of the Development of Pacific Ceast Interests in Japan. The board ot trustees of the Chamber of Commerce held its regular session yester- day afternoon. Several important ques- tions came up for consideration, among them being that of placing 200 additional boys in the trainingschool at Mare Island. The Chamber of Commerce has taken great interest in this question, but its efforts will necessarily cease at this time, owing to the receipt of a letter from F. M. Ramsey, Bureau of Navigation, U. 8. N. Ramsey’s letter was addressed to Jobn L. Howard, vice-president of the chamber, and reads as follows: WASHINGTON, D, sir: Your letts 23d uit. to the Secre- tary of the Navy, regarding ilie desire of the Chamber of Commerce of San Francisco that orders Le issued for an eniisiment at Mare Island of 200 additionai boys, has been re- ceived. Inrepiy 1 have the honor to siate that there is uot suflicient accommodation at Mare Isiand tor this number of boys. As soon us the boys who are now there—about 100— can be accommoduted in & training vessel which, it is hoped, will soon occur, instruc tions will be given for the establishment of an. other hunared. It is the desire of the depert- meut 10 eniist and train boys on the Pacific Coast in sufficient numbers to meet all the re- quirements of the Pacific and Asiatic stations. F. M.

GUMPER WAS “THERE.” A Nimble ex-Fireman K Limb to Extingaish “Calr ks Life and Fire in the uilaing. A lively blaze on a high story of the mammoth new ( building on’ the cor- ner of Market and Third streets attracted wide attention last night. About 7:30 o’clock up in the midst of the great steel ralters a bright giare was seen, apparently spreading in the direction of the immense derrick used for hoisting material to the npper floors, Among the spectators who observed the glare was J. Gumper, 8 mechanic of this City and ex-railroad fireman. He was not willing to stand impassively by, as he readily conceived what damage might re- sult. Hurriedly be took means to br in the door leading to the building frcm the streetand, without pausing, started 1o | ccale the heights toward the fire. By means of ladders and agile ciambering he passed from storv 1o story, closely watched the admiring crowd below. W ben he reached the eleventh story Mr. mper found that the strange fire had ady 'made considerable headway. It 4 cvidently caught from the small jurnace used by the mechanics of the builoing, and had communicated to the tcolcbest in the immediate vicinity, which was borning briskly. As be looked through the blinding smoke and showers of sparks he saw that there was imminent danger of the fiery element spreading to guyropes sustaining the heavy derrick , or freight depots only, are alrexdy | the growing towns on the | the order of the words | bout $4000 each.

It is said that Sharkey is taking light exercise somewhere in the immediate viemnity of Vallejo, and that Tanner Joe has already got himself into prime con- dition after a course of heavy training in the immediate vicinity of Breweryville, San Mateo County. The articles read that Tom and Jerry, or the principal cities of - and afford the natives an oppor- | the tunity of seeing how two noted gladiators | can tap each o ‘ without the p: er with five-ounce gioves ful necessity ot having to it ing in a four-round bout, the es will furtber astonish the natives in exhibitions of bag-punching, at which game they are said {o b2 very ex- perienced, especiaily big Joe, who is as flash as a cat on his pins and fearfully ag- | gressive as a bag puncher. Sharkey bas thoroughly mastered a | cute iittle speech which was written by | Sharpshooter Earp. His explanation of | that foul slow which won the champion sailor pugilist $10,000 recently, much to the chasrin of a man named Fitzsim- | mons, who figured on the capture of the | big purse iong before he had the pleasure | of meeting Mr. Sharkey in battle array. | These beautiful siver cups, with Cham- pion Sharkey’s name engraved thereon, were “built” for a purpose which has been | kept a s:cret until now. Mr. Sharkey | wisely concluded to part with some of his hard-earncd money in the purchase of sil- verware, because he had an object in view. The cups will be offered as prizes for the young men of the country who will en- gege in our round-boxing bouts at each periermance which will be given by Champions Tom and Joe. It is said that Sharkey regrets the fact that when ordering the cups he made one great mistake. He intended to have his picture stamped on them, but in the hurry of the moment, he forgot that important direction, and now his heart is conse- quently sad and pensive, but Tom is san- | guine, nevertheless, that the boys of the country whose proclivities are sportive, will thoroughly appreciate the kindness of the champion in offering such beautiful prizes for the encouragement of fistic sport in the bucolic districts. score a knock S e o Fountain Lodge, L. 0. O. F. Fountein Lodge of Oskland celebrated its sil- ver anniversery on Monday night. There were present many visitors from lodges in the vicinity and from those in San Francisco.

First Sentence by Judge Dunne. The first sentence to be imposed by Superior Judge Dunne will be that resulting from a charge of assault successfully sustained yester- day against William Mackey, an ex-Union soldier. The prosecution was made by Assisi- ant District Attorney Hinkle and the defense by F. V. Brooks and L. Morris, the final argu- ments occupying the greater Tek Kiog of Pills st of American tanneries, have signed ! | sage of certain bills in which it is inter- ested. The president of the Chamber of Com- merce of this City was, by letter from the Chamber of Commerce of Paris, France, All,pl;Dil)md an bonorary member of that ody. Action was taken in favor ol Federal control of tue quarantine system ot this port. Toe trustees decided to call a special meeting of citizens for next Tuesday at 1 P. M. at Chamber of Commerce hall to take action in favor of prompt legislation to secure construction of the Nicaragus canal, A teleeram was réad from certain per- sons in New York urging the chamber to act 1n favor of the arbitration treaty with Great Britain now before the Senate. The trustees wired for further information, it being their opinion that such a treaty should not be ratified by the Senate with- out & change in respect to the permanent arbitrator named, the King of Sweden. It was held that by reason of consan- cuinity and monarchical tendencies he would not make a safe arbitrator in case of a dispute between the two countries. It was the sense of the trustees that in order to make the treaty acceptable every emergency should be provided for by hav- ing a suitable arbitrator appointed. They await further information on the subject before taking action. EVENTS IN SOCIETY. The Coming Wedding of Miss Mary Scott to Neville H. Castle—Catholic Ladies Social.

There will be an immense crowd in attendance at the meet and club enthusiasm will run high, especially with the Olympic, Bay City, Reliance and Acme men when Russ, Kenna, Mott and Squires meet in the amateur events. n the professional events Whitman will win the Veiodrome shield race if he is‘ right, and big Charley Wells is riding in such vastly improved form to what he showed on Christmas and New Year’sday that the others will have great trouble in taking his measure. The men have all bhad two weeks’ training now and are in better racing shape than at any time since the Veiodrome opened, and for this rea- son alone Saturday’s events are expected to be more exciting and more hotly and closely contested than any yet held here.

It is expected the railroad to Fresno will be completed before long, as some new men are connected with the enter- prise. Many pecple believe the road will not only be a great thing for the owners, but for Monterey and other towns, and for the people along the line. “But the latest enterprise at Monterey,” said the doctor, ‘“1s one connected directly with the bringing of electrical power from the Little Sur River, twenty-two miles away, to Monterey. There is a fall in the Little Sur equivalent to the power of 1200 horses. “It Is proposed to brine half this power to Monterey, and for this purposea strong company, composed of leading capitalists, has been incorporated. They will begin work March 1, and will have the power in Monterey by July. “This power will be of great importanoe to Monterey, as it will greatly lesson the cost of power as hitherto used for local purposes. As an instance of the way the project is being received it may be men- tioned that Salinas, twenty miles distant from Monterey, has offered the company $10,000 & year for power equivalent to 200 horses deliveréd in Sulinas. “The electrical power wiil help Monte- rey in a great many ways. The town is solid in its growth at present, and I con- sider it one of the best places in the State in which to make investmente.” The doctor will probably be here for sev- eral days.
