i 10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, APRIL 5, 1897. MANY MEMBERS FOR THE G, A G, The New Organization Heartily Supported by ' Wheelmen. Judge Kerrigan Tells Why the Leagite Was Unsatis- factory. Much Money Was Sent East, Very L:ttle Returned to This Division. bu The California Associated Cyclers, the name by which the organization to sup- plant the northern division of the League of American Wheelmen will be known, is losing no time in its prepara- tions to assault the membership of the National association. Judge Frank Kerrigan, erstwhile chief consul of this division of the League of American Wheelmen, and chairman of the organization commiftee of the new as- sociation, has found time to draw up a plan of attack which promises to be most effective in swelling the C. A. C. mem- bership, and early in this week the vari- ous proselytizing agencies wiil be in active operation. “Within ninety days,” said Judge Ker- rigan last evening, “we expect to havea membership of 1000, and the good work will undoubtedly go on. This movement is at present distinctively Californian, and we count on the patriotism of the wheel- men to support us. *‘Bafore the end of this week I will ap- point all the local consuls of the division, aod they will commence soliciting mem- bers at once. Victor Hancock will sta: on the road during the week as tue auly accredited representative of the organiza- tion, and irom him we have reason to ex- pect good returns, He will receive a percentage of the membership dues as compensation and wiil probably also rep- resent some cycle firm. “The advantazes which alocal organiza- tion will have are numerous and impor- tant. This division of the L. A. W. has now about 1706 members. Last year we sent back $1600 for membership dues, and of this $104C was retained in the East. Of the $560 which was returned to us we were compelled to pay an attorney, a secretary- treasurer, stationery bills, expenses of delegates to meetings, the cost of issuing road books and minordisbursements. The new association wiil cover the entire scope of the league and we will be manifestly better equipped when we retain all the membership fees. *What provisions will be made in re- gard to racing cannot be accurately stated at this time. We will communicate with all associations both in this country and in foreign countries which control racing, and we will probably recognize only such organizations as will recognizs us. “Ail the riders in this division with four exceptions will race under our sanc- tions. The exceptions are Wells, McFar- land and Ziegler, who leit for the East this morning, and possibly W. A. Terrill, who expects to go East. Waliter Foster and Harry Terrill have agreed to ride here in first Sunday races, which will be neid Avpril 18. *“The Southern California riders—though that poriion of the State has not yet co- operated with us in this movement—will be forced to get in line, as most of their riders of importance are already under the ban of the L. A. W. for Sunday riding at Santa Monica.” Judge Kerrigan dwelt upon the im- portant work which the wheeimen of this division, under league auspices, had ac- complished, and predicted that they would be even more active in the new associ- ation. He prophesied that members would be much more easily obtained than for the league. THE HANDBALL OCURTS. J. C. Nealon and ii. Linehan Defeat T. F. Bonnet and Al Hampton. The bandball zames played in the San Francisco court yesterday were witnessed by alarge crowd. The event of the day was & game in which J. C. alon and R. Linehan, the overhand swiver, played against T. F. Bonnetand Al Hampton. It was closely contested, the fual game being won by Neaion and Linehan by one ace. Another game which caused some money to change hands was played be- tween J. Lawless and Dan Rodgers and R. Shea and D. Connolly. It wasa walkover for Lawless and Rodgers, interest 1s bpeing taken in the single-hana game to bs played next.San- day alternoon beiween Coast Champion Rioraan and T. F. Bonnet. Each has many admirers and considerable money will change hands on the resuit. Following were the games played in the San Francisco court: M. McLaughlin and J. Moffitt defeated R. Adams avd W.

For the next ten days, beginning with to-day, the Chamber of Commerce will be the scene of a religious gathering, with business men as the congregation and the Very Rev. Percy C. Webber, Arcndeacon of Milwaukee, as the preacher. It is doubttul if a more eloquent voice than that of Archdeacon Webber has evsr been heard in.the Chamber. Simple, direct and persuasive in style, he appeals at once 10 the heart and conscience of his audience. Archdeacon Webber is a member of the order of preaching missioners of the Episcopal church. He has traveled the country over holding missions. At St. Jobn’s Church in this City, where he has just concluded a mission, his sermons ai- tracted wide interest. At the Good Samaritan Mission his success was mar- velous. In Btockton the audiences he gatliered numbered thousands. At these services a few moments will be spent in devotional exercises, succeeded by a short address. The prospect of large audiences is said to be very good. ———— Tom (gloomily)—L teil you, Charlie, this 152 nn—?, hard worid. Charlie (interostedly) — 8o you have bought a bicycle, 100, have you?

Championship Among Whitchall THEY MET AFTER THIRTY YEARS Reunion of the Brothers Antone and E. M. Zvietich. The Story of a Confederate Sol- dier Who Returned to Austria. Was Present in Constantinople When Thousands of Armenians Were Massacre! by the Turks. Antone Zvietich, well known to the early prospectors about Virginia City just prior fo the discovery of the Comstock lode, was a prominent figure yesterday in Antone Zvietich, the Edar Broth:r, Who Witness:d the Armenian Massacres, a family reunion after a separation of thirty years. Antone is not such a very old man now, being only 62 years of age, but he has crowded into his life such experiences as make a man’s history most interesting. He and his two brothers were born in Lagosta, an island in the Adriatic. While | they were still in their teens and he had just turned into manhood he sailed away to America, landing in New Orleans, where he was almostimmediately enlisted in what was known as the Spanish Regi- ment, in 1860, at the opening of the war. He served until its close and traveled on to Virginia City, where he opened a outcher and grocer shop. Money was | plentiful and he became rich enough to indulge in a trip home in 1867. He was anxious to see his parents and brothers, after which he was to return to this coun- try. In the meantime he fell in love and married, and his plans were entirely changed. Instead of returning to America he remained away, but_shipped off his | two brothers, E. M. and Joseph Zvietich, the former reaching this City, where he i$ a prosperous fruit-shipper, and the latter going to New Zealand, where he is & wealthy wool-grower. It has been the intention of the three brothers to have a reunion in this City, and in carrying this out E. M. and Antone met yesterday morning at Benicia after thirty vears' separation and are both in the former's home at 231 Valencia street. Anione still remembers English suffici- ently to enteriain his visitors. “I'did not know bim when he came and tappsd me on the shoulder n the train,” he said allnding to his brother. ‘““He was only 17 years old when I sent aim to America—a big fat boy. Now he is a grown man with & wife and two children.” In thirty years' time Antone has been treated fairly well. Age seems to have affected him only in the additional frost on Lis heau. have had some trying situations,” hesaid. “My wife and four children have died. 1 have brought three children here with me, but my other two are at school in Austria. “Isaw the begicning of the Armenian troubles when I wasin Russia, from 1868 until last year. The Armenians demand- ed their freedom from the Turks, and, i stead, they were only killed in.a most un- merciful way. Last August I was in Con. stantinople when 5000 Armenisns were killed by the Turks in less than twenty- four hours. They were shot down with- out mercy—men, women and children— or else they were carried out on vessels on the Bosphorus ana decapitated or thrown overboard. There was no time to bury them in those days. The carnage and horrible sights I witnessed make me believe thut tne Turks are the most cruel people on earth.”’ WILLING TO WORK. The Great Army of Unemployed in the Howard-Street Shelter, There were 340 willing men who ac- cepted couches last night at the Howard- street shelter for the unemployed. Most of these have not yet been able to get employment on the boulevard, and they are looking forward to the time when their turn will come for empioyment. In the meanume they must depend upon the benefits of the shelter, the larder of which, by the way, is not too well stocked. A cks of flour or beans and a side or two of beel, well as anything in the way of substantial food, would be eagerly accepted. These members of the army of the un- employed have shown themselves to be reully deserving. Those who have been fur- nished with work have nearly all brauched off and are keeping themselves on their t wages, They call around at head- quarters, however, to see how their com- panions are faring, but they keep away | from drawing upon the food allowance of those who have as yet failed to get em- ployment. A creditable feature in connection with the unemp’oyed who make their home in | the vast Howard-street domicile is that | only two men bave caused any disturb- | ance in the past two months. In both | cases the men were hall-siarvea, and suc- | cumbed to s slight quantity 'of intoxi- cants that would have had no effect upon them under conditions of better nourish- ment. The hour for rising is 5:30 o’clock 1n the morning, and last night at 10 o'clock the 340 who lay asleep on the hard floor of the great dormitory all expected to be put to work to-da; - EASTERN RACERS DEPART. Loughead, Eaton and, Other Cyclers Have Gone Home. The Eastern cycle racers have gone. With the closing of the indoor tournament Saturday night track racing on the coast will cease for some little time, and most of the riders have departed for their homes | for a short rest before beginning their ca- | reers on the National circuit of 1897. Those who went were Fred Loughead, | Jay Eaton, Fioyd A. McFariand, O. L. | Btevens and Charles 8. Wells, accom- panied by F. Ed Spooner, correspondent, and wife and Dave Shafer, tramer. W. E. Becker left for Minneapolis last night. Becker, Loughesd, Stevens and Crack next fall, and were well pleased with their treatment by the local wheelmen. Wells and McFarland are Californians and will return after the circuit is over. Otto Ziegler Jr. expects to go East in | about & week. SINGLE-TAXERS CONFIDENT. | Surveyor-General Local Soc At the regular week | Single Tax Society at 909 Market street last evening, Surveyor-General Will S. Green, a pioneer resident of Colusa ty. 1 |E. M. Zvietich, the Younger| | Brother. | County and editor of the Colusa Sun, ad- dressed a large and attentive audience, “Althoueh twenty years ago,’” he said, “I was on the other side, and used 10 op- pose Henry George's theories, I have be- come convinced of the justice and desira- bility of a single tax upon land values. | ‘ITul only disagreement I have with the single-taxers is in regard to the method to be pursued. It seems to me that we | should direct our energies chiefly to con- vincing the small land-owners of the ne- cessity of doing away with the taxes on personal property and improvements, | which scarcely pay the cost of coliecting | them.” James 8. Reynolds recounted briefly the progress made during the past four years, and gave a detailed account of the consti- tutional amendment, giving the Legisla- ture the power of regulating taxation, which was proposed in the last Legisla- ture and defeated by a small margin. “The amendment was defeated,” he de- clared, “tirough the infjuence of a few land speculators of this city.” ————— KILLED BY RAT POISON. The Foolish Act of Emma Grifiiths, a Young Womun. Emma Griffiths, 18 years of age, who re- sided at 128 Silver street, commitied sui- cide by taking a dose of rough on rats. The young woman was madly in love with aman named James Strice. In fact she was 80 desperately in love witi the man that she could not get along without him even for a day, and the knowledge that | Strice was about to depart for Los An- | geles ou this morning’s train for a shor, pleasure trip was more than she could bear. To her mind there was but one remedy for such despair, and that was in death. A convenient box of rat exterm nator set- tled the question with Miss Gritfitns, and she 100k a large dose of tne stuff. A little later the girl met the object of her hope- less love on Fourth street and spoiled the pleasure of histrip by telling him that when ne was on bis wiy to the sunny land of the south she would be on her way to the cold, damp grave. Strice was practical enough to send the foolish_girl to the Receiving Hospital, where Dr. J. Kearney did all he could to relieve her of the rat poison, but to no | purpose, for she died about midnight. — e The Letter- Carriers’ Cholee. Golden Gate Branch 214, National Assocts- tion of Letter Carriers, met Saturday evening. 10 elect delegates to the annual convention to be held in this City next July.

Dave Crowley Jr. Beat His Father in Two Races Dur- ing the Day. The Sealing Schoomer Luisa D. R-- ported Off Cape Arago With 650 Skins Aboard. There were two exciting boat races from | Eaton are anxious to come out here again | Off Meiges wharf yesterday. The course was from a point off the wharf around Blossom Rock, thence back toa point off Powell-street wharf, thence to the Pre- sidio shoal buoy and theu back to the starting point. The first race was to have been a match between D. Crovley Sr.and W. F. Fitz- cerald for $50 a side, but as Fitzgerald is roen Addresses the | still a very sick man the contest could not take place. Dave Crowley Jr. volun- meeting of the | teered to take Fitzgerald’s place and give | his father a few pointers. They got away together, but in rounding Blossom Rock the son took the lead and his father was never able to head him. There was never more than half a dozen boat lengths be- tween them at any time, and it was as pretty a trial of skill as has ever been seen on the bay. The second race was started about 2 . M. with half the Whitehalls in the bay entered. It was hotly contésted from +tart to finish, and Tom Murrey won by a short margin from Dave Crowley Jr., with Dave Crowley Sr. third. The picnic and prize shooting at Schuetzen Park drew forth an enormous crowd yesterday, and Sergeant Tom Ma- boney and six policemen had all they could do to handle it. At one time the waitiug-rooms and sidewalks were packed, and thieves made hay while the sun shone. The 1:30 boat was twenty min- utes late in getting away, and over 300 | people were left behind. Among those who were robbed was Jobn ligger, secretary of the Grocerymen’s nion, and who also keepe a grocery store on the corner of Sixteenth and Guerrero streets. He had §110 taken from his hip pocket. A Mrs. Wilson lost her watch and chain, and when the matter was re- ported 1othe sergeant of police present te at once mounted a box and at the top of his voice: “Keep a gvod lookout “after your money and valuables; there are pickpockeis among y The only los« after that was one of $2 50, which s young man who refused to give his name, reporied to one of the officers. On the return trip the crowd was a fairly orderly one, owing to tie presence of at | least a dozen policemen. Captain Warner of the San Francisco and North Pacific Railroad Com pany had 2 DArrow escape yesterday. One of the steamers was aboutdue and he walked out on the apron to see if it was at its proper beight. It just happened that the pawls were not set and Warner’s weight caused the apron to go down with a rush, throw- ing him into the bay. His cries brought assistance and he was hauled back en to the wharf again. Belore changing his clothes he got the apron back into posi- tion and proceeded to set the pawls. In doing so one of them caught his fore- finger and pinced out a big piece of flesh. The wound was dressed by the company’s doctor and Captain Warner is now going around with his hand in a sling. The steamer Del Norte, wkich got in yesterday, spoke the louisa D off Cape Arago. The sealing schooner asked to be reported as all well and 650 skins aboard. The United States steamer Alert got in from Honolulu yesterday, after a 13 days’ passage. Bhe sailed before the Rio de Janeiro, consequently she has no news. The officers say Lhat the \rouble with the Japanese is nothing but what the Hawailan Government can handle. The Alert will remain here a few days and will ther: go to Mare Island for an over- hauling. Following 1s a list of the officers: Com- mander, . Hanford; lieutenants—T. S. Pheips, A. C. Baker, C. F.

It was renderea doubly impressive by the eighty choir boys, who knelt in the form of the cross while they sang the beantiful story of the crucifixion. Solos were sung by Arthur Sugden, the boy soprano, and F. H. Lombard, tenor. Rev. Dr. Emery preached on “The Chnistian Race.” “The Christian,” he said, ‘“‘should not be discouraged by the knowledge of his guilt.

Important Matters Were De- cided Upon at a Meeting in West Oakland. Four Leading Unions Will Make an Assessment and Send cut a Circular at Onc:. OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FraNcisco CALy,) 908 Broadway, April 4. § An important discovery was made this afternoon to an enthusiastic meeting of representatives of the various railway em- ployes. : The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi- neers, Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, Order of Railway Conducters, Brother- hood of Locomotive Firemen and Order of Railroad Telegraphers were represented. T. M. Pierson, assistant great chief of the 0. R.T. of Terre Haute, Ind., was also present and aided in their deliberations. C. E. Houcz of the O.R. C. presided and George Bulen of the B. of R. T. acted as secretary. The B. L. E. members present at a previous meeting gave it as their law that they could not federate without the con- sent of their board of adjustment, and that board would not meet for eighteen months. Since that time a letter has been received from Grand Chiel Engineer P. M. Arthur which contradicts this assertion, for he says in a letter to P. N. Morrisy, grand master of the B. of R. The members of the B.L. E. upon auy sys- tem can federate with tue orzanizations named inthe articles of federation by u two- thirds vote of tue members. When the men have voted I nave always aporoved of it when signed by the chairman and secretary of the general board of sdjustment. [ Lave never considered that it was necessary to have the approval of the general boaid of adjustuent alier they had obeained o two-thirds vote of the membership upon the system. The secretary was instructed to corre- spond with Chairman Stafford of Stock- ton to secure all information possible in regard to the federation now in exlistence. In answer to a question as to the sianding of the federation at present, Mr. Pierson said: “We provose to revive the old federa- tion. Three years ago the federation erected a builuing. Then an A. R. U, cyclone swept over this country and swept it all away but the foundation. Now we propose to build a new structure upon this foundati>n. We are already federated, and we want everybody to know it. I believe in printing and send- ing out a circular to this effect at once.” The various lodges represented will be asked to appropriate 5 cents per member for the necessary expenses of the union meetings. Suggestions were made that the railroad boys refrain from the use of Chinese cigars and that McKinley be thanked for turning down General Otis of Los Angeles. Mr. Pierson then epoke as follows: To-day is the day of rest,and if there are any men who need thifrest it is the men who handie our trains. 1sm glad o talk of federa- tion. It is tne highest pinnacle of strengtn one can reach in this world. Federation is simply a triumph of organization. Organized Iabor is organized thought. or- ganized thought is the orgauization that has iven down-trodden men their ireedom. The United States is & fair sample of federation. Forelzn powers respect the flag. Will people recognize the fiag of the O. R. unless she is federated with other railroad organizations? No wore than Mexico would recognize Texas if she were not federated with the other States. By their absence this afternoon the B. of L. E. {ntimate that their flag is recoguized with- out federation. The day is coming when the 8. P. Company will no more recognize them than if they were not 1n existence. I don’t be- iieve that the S. P. officials are opposed to fed- eration. 1 hear you talk of them as fair- minded men. If they are they will see they will be as much benefited as you are. It is to toeir best interests that you have & common understanding. THE TURNERS ENTERTAIN. ° Gymuastic Exhibition for the Benefit of the Prize Grade. San Francisco Turner Hail at 323 Turk street was crowded last evening, the occa- sion being a gymnastic exhibition and ball for the benefit of the Ban Francisco Turn Verein prize turners competing in the quadrenaisl prze tournsment of the North American Turners' Union, to be held in St. Louis, Mo., from May 6 to 11.

On last Saturday evening the San Fran- cieco Scottish Thistle Club heid what is known as a “tattie and herrin’ ” supper at the banquet hall,32 O'Farrell street.

SN FILLS ALL THE WIDE WORLD" Such Were the Words of , the Rev. Father Joseph Byrne Last Night. An Eloquent Sermon on Evil 2t St. Mary’s Cathe- dral. Impressive Ceremonies for Various Societies During the Morning Hours. There were several important services at St. Mary’s Cathedral yesterday, conclud- ing with a brilliant sermon at night by Rev. Father Joseph Byrne. At 8 A. M. fully 1000 members of the Ancient Order of Hibernians received the communion, Father Crowley being in the sanctuary. Mass was ‘said by Archbishop Riordan, assisied by Rev. Father Byrne and Rev. Father Crowley. At 3 P. M. the Calvarian Society had devotions in charge of Rev. Father J. B. Harrigan. The sermon last night was by Rev. qu; Joseph Byrne, the theme being Sin.” “If we lived a thousand years,’ said the speaker. *'there would be ample room for improvement, for the command of the Saviour was, ‘Be ye perfect.’ If we used our powers aright our souls would be beantiful to God, but by stubborn con- duct we defile our souis. Weare creatures of free will as a rule, but we must use our wills properly or we fail. Love does not appeal to the sinner, and nothing brings hirma nearer to God. He passes through the world like an animal. “The world is full oi dangers and it is always easy to sin, because the devil is abroad, like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. We are all filled with the fires of passion and we need only a spark to light those passions into a flame. We ought to aiways be in fear and trem. bling lest God call for our souls any mo- ment, for God is good, God ‘is merciful and God is just. Beware of the first sin, for when it is entered upon it is like & serpent and it devours all it comes upon in the world.” M Death of a Miner, C. H.
