He Is COorrecting the Erroneous In- formation Being Given to the Senate. | F OAKLAND, CaL., July 14.—The cotton manufacturers are declaring that this in- that unless the misrepresentations made in the Senate are speedily corrected they will be forced to close down for lack of in- telligent protection. In January last Superintendent Rather- { ford of the California Cotton-mills at East Oakland was in Washington and appeared before the Ways and M=ans Committee in behalf of the protection of the jute-bag and burlap industry. To the surprise of the cotton-mill owners of this State the | Senate, on June 19, voted adversely on the protection of this industry, and was large- ly led to do so by “incorrect, misleading and unjust” reports. Superintendent Rutherford has just prepared a statement tives at Washington and which is of vital State. It clearly sets forth the truth of the matters referred to. fornia Cotton-mills employed Chinese la- bor in their mills while running under tbe McKintey tariff, the answer is given: “The jutemill I repiesent employs only free white American Jabor and never em- ployed a single Chinaman nor paid a dol- lar for Chinese labor. The mill located at Clinton formerly employed Chinese labor, but for many years previous to its shut- down had been displacing this labor with white free help, until, at the time of its stoppage in 1894, it employed 450 free white operators uud only 50 Chinese.” ‘‘that the jutemills on the Pacific Coas were run entirely by convict and Chinese abor.” The answer says three jutemills in California which em- ploy free white labor. This is exclusive of | by convicts. One mill Is located Twenty-third avenue, East Oakland, tablished in- 1884; one at Clinton, Oakland, which was established 1n 18 and another at Twenty-eighth and Chan- nel streets, San Francisco, built in 1893, but which has never been siarted.” facturers was so small as io be of no im- nortance” is thus refutec: “'In 1893 over 6000 bales of raw jute, weighing 400 pounds each, were manufactured by the one mill 1 represent and made into bags, burlaps and tw creasin : under the protective tariff of 1890 tili 1894, adequate protection being given by the McKinley sct, when raw jute was | put on the free list.” It was also said that | there bhad been little or no increase in | domestic production for many years under an adequate protection. Mr. Rutherford makes this reply : “The thres white labor mills under adequate protection such as we had from 1890 to 1894 would give employment to over 900 wage-earners and produce over 25 per cent of the bags requirea for grain on this coast and_pay in wages over $300.000 an- nually. Between 1886 and 1890 the manu- facture of juie bags doubled in volume, and between 1890 and 1892 a large amount of new jute machinery was procured for a new jutemill Lere, but was never erected owing to the passage of the Wilson biil. This machinery now lies in the original cases in the mill built to receive it in San Francisco. This mill would be star.ed up under adequate protection and many more woula soon follow.” United States Senate that “the Legis- lature of the State of California favored | free grain bags and buriaps and had in- | structed Senator Perkins to vote for the same.’ The facts are these: ‘'A resolution in- | troduced into the California Siate Legis- | lature last session (in January, 1897), in favor of free grain bags was unfavorably received and lapsed from want of sup- port. The Legislature, like the people of the State, want manufactures protected and jute bags and burlaps among them, all having experienced the disastrous effects arising to cily and conntry alike from the operations of the Wilson bill. Moreover, at a joint meeting of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade, held last January in San Francisco, at which representative farm- { ers, large growers of grain and shippers | ol wheat were present, a resolution was | passed urging Congress to protect the | manufactures of this State as well as the { products of the farm, bags and burlaps E being s;ecially mentioned, to be given an { adequte duty in the following words: | We ask that grain bagsand burlaps be placed on the dutiable list and bear the duty fixed by actof 1890." | . “Tte situation is sitaply this,” said Mr. Rutherford last night, ‘“each industry suould have 1ts share of the duty to bear. Lt should not e tuat the fruits and wool have all of the protection and the manu- facturing interests have none. Each should bear their portion. Give thefarmer some on his fruit, some on his wool, some ou his other products, and give the manu- facturer some on his products to protect he laborer. “There are sixtv flax, jute and hemp mills partially or entircly shut down owin: to the free entry of these products. ~ This represents a capi- tal of $12424000 and 11,139 em- ployes. This is exciusive of those making only bage where bags are made by ma- chinery of foreign raw material. “'Senator White has placed himself in & most peculiar position championing pro- tection for those things in Bouthern Cali- fornia that have never had protection and g:cmz notl:;ng to assist Senator Perkins to ure protection for the northern portion of our State. Mr. White objects mp”duc. ing the tariff on jute bags on the plea that itis an injury to the farmersand he is not going to do auything that will make their burg‘nn iny hnl:vler. *‘Mr. English, one of his m friends, said to-day that 90 ?:;m';?:x:: farms in this State balongurm the capi- talists and banks, and they to cut them up into small the farmer to buy, preferring to hoid it themselves. Mr. Foole placed the pro- portion at 75 per cent, but in either case it is easy to see that the opposition to duty on grain bags is from capital in- stead of from labor or the farmers, as Mr. White would have the public belisve. As- suming it to be a fact, for the sake of argument, that the farmer was compelled to pay the duty it would be only a small amount. Only 10 cents per acre. *'1 have not met a farmer in California that would not pay that. He would get more for bis wool, for his meat, his hops and his wheat as well as everything else, had refused holdings for dustry is being seriously threatened and | which has been forwarded to Representa- | importance to thousands of people in this | | In answer to the charge that the Cali- The statement was made in Congress “There are | the jutemill owned by the State and run | at The charge *'that the proportion of bags | and buriaps made here by domestic manu- | ne. The quantity was annually in- | It was also stated by Mr. White in the; The first attack Senator White made on the tariff bill was on a paragraph which specified a duty on burlap bags, section 19. | His claim that Chinese were worked here is false, as every one knows.. We never had a Chinese on the place. The old jute mill at Clinton, which 1 never had a thing to do with, did employ them, but of late vears, before closing down under a free tariff, they always employed white labor. ‘“Che free white labor mills of Califor- i nia at foll running under protection em- ploy over 900 wage-earners. One mi'lion dollars is invested in the mills, which work up annuully 25,000 bales of raw jnte and producire 13,000,000 grain bags an- nually. This leaves out of account entire- ly the State jutemilis run bv prison labor, which now manufacture 6,000,000 grain bags yearly. In view of the foregoing facts and figures is it wise or politic to | wipe out the jute bag and burlap industry | of this coast and of the United States and | throw so many Feonle outof employment, | ruin the capital invested and leave the | | consumers of bags and burlaps for all | | time entirely at the mercy of foreign im- | porters? ‘ | ““We confidently rely upon the Repub- | lican party doing its auty to this indus- | | try, and sustaining the rate of duty agreed | | on by the House of Repre:entatives, and thus showing their consistency to the declaration of their principles.” WOMEN HAVE THEIR DAY. Many Bright Speeches and Papers at the J xposition OAKLAND, Car, July 14.—This is| | Woman's day at the Exposition, and the | managers are particularly anxious that it shall not be spoken of as “‘ladies’ day.” The programme was carefully prepared | 8o that all the leading woman’s organiza- | tions in the city should be represented. | Mrs. 8. C. Sanford, who is at the head of the Society for the Prevention .of Cruelty to Animals, was vresident of the day, and | in her opening remarks she siated that | | she was ope of the first crusaders in the | | cause of the emancipation of women in | Ohio twenty-cne years ago, and she has | been a firm advocate of equal suffrace | ever since. | | During her remarks she said: “It is the | KITTLES MOLE POINTS VENISON An Animal That Will Snort on Olemas Hills To- Day. Men of Prominence Who Will Pump Lead at Preserved Bucks. The Tamalpais Olub Members Await the Sound of the Hunter's Horn. “Have you ever seen my old mule Sad- dlebags? No. Well, if you want to see the most intelligent animal in this crea- tion just pay a visit tosour headquarters |in Marin County on Thursday and you will never regret it."" The speaker was William Kittle of the Country Club, a most whole-souled fellow and famous a8 a great Nimrod. “Billy” will chaperone a party of sports- men from this City to-day in a grand hunt for deer through the immense demesn2 of the Countrv Club, and it goes without saying that lead will be pumped ad libi- tum at forked horns and spiked bucks so long as there islight sufficient to cee the sights of a Winchester rifle. Yesterday afternoon a special car was attached to an engine at the Sausalito de- pot, and the following gentlemen bent on rifle. He imagines that the buck fever will not annoy him provided the g will not be 1n & burry to wish him the top | o’ the morning. It is said tbat Osborne smells blood |afar. He has promised innumerable steaks to his friends, and that proves con- clusively the confidence of the man. | Billy Brown—well, he cannot fail to bag | game. His friends say that William has | already branded two 120-pound ‘‘smort- ers,” and that, of course, means “pie’’ for Billy. Ll’ Cosia and Domergue are noncom- mittal, but 8 wink from La Costa means a good deal. It's adead sure shot La Costa will have a scalp or twodangling from his cartridge beit this evening. Sportsmen must remember t the Supervisors of some near-by counties have ordained that deer must not be killed during this month. 1HE CALL published a list of the ordinances passed by the Su- pervisors of the different counties relative to the killing of game and fish a few weeks ago. RIOCHARDSON REINSTATED. Captain Levy Loses His Position at Mare Island. OAKLAND, Can, July 14 —Captain Henry levy, who succeeded H. D. Rich- | ardson at Mare Island as chief clerk of the yards and docks department, has been removed and his predecessor reinstated. This unexpected order from Washington was a great surprise to the politicians of this city, and s-veral other men who were appointed while Mr. English was in Con- sress are now on the anxious seat. Captain Levy was an active Democratic worker in this'city and a prominent mem- ber of the National Guard. Mr, Richard- son is a veteran of the Civil War, and the civil service order of Mr. Cleveland pro- vides that old soldiers or their widows may be reinstated in positions thev once held without examination. The place is worth $1400 a vear. | THE MEAGHERS' MISERY. Married While Children, They Havs Quarreled Ever Since.

Arrest of a Young Man on a Charge of Robbing 8 Woman. ALAMEDA, CaL, July 14 —A young man, who gave the name of L. M. Young, was arrested last night in this city on complaint of a voung woman giving the | name of Miss Jessie Ross, who charged Young withrobbery. Miss Ross says that she is visiting friends on Ellis street in San Francisco and made the acquaintance of Young on the street on Monday, both bailing from the same town in Oregon. They went to Pledmont together and she pays that Young stole hef watch and purse with $19 in coin and ran away. Yesterday she saw him in San Francisco and followed him here, and after asking him for the return of her property and | being refused she had him arrested. Young says that she gave him the money 1o use for both, and that she inirusted the watch to him for the purpose of giving it to a watchmaker for repair. Young was locked up and Miss Ross promised to come over this morning and swear toa complaint, but did not do so. - Salvation Army Camp-Meeting. OAKLAND, CAL., July 14.—The Salva- tion Army camp-meeting will open at Trestle Glen to-morrow. This 1s the sixth annual meeting and promises to be a very successful gathering. Delegations will be resent from most of the coast posts. Ehc rescue farm and prison gate work will be exemplified during the week. Major and Mrs. Winchell will be in com- mend during the absence of Colonel Kep- pler in London. 3 | J. Bergez, William Brown, F. having a good time and a most successful outing took passage for Tocaloma, at which place the Country Club had a large convevance in waiting to escort the mem- bers and invitea guests to the ciub’s head- quarters in the beautiful Bear Valley: J. V. Stetson, presidint of the North Pacific Coast Railroad, F. Hicksof Los Angeles, Fred Howard, D. Hyland, C. hamilton and W. Kittle, The gentlemen will use Winchester rifles of the most improved pattern, but owing to orders that were issued last year by the club the new rifle bullet which kills at two miles and over must not be used on the club’s premises. Mr. Btetson is said to be an expert deer- shooter, and doubtless he will score a sue- cess to-day in bowling over some of the “preserved’” game which have waxed fat ana lazy owing to the excellent feed they enjoy over an extended range of country. Mr. Hicks of Los Angeles isa remark- ! ably fiue quail shot, and although he has had a rather limited experience in rifle shooting he feels that if a favorable op- portunity presents itsell for a snap shot at a fleeing monarch something will be seen to take a tumble. Howard and Hy- land are old at the game of deer-stopping. Consequently’ they will be muchly sur- prised sportsmen if they should fail to draw blood during the early hours of the morniny, Of course much depends on Hamiiton and Kittle. Those gentiemen figure on the cluh’s game log as being crackajacks with rifle and shotgun. | It 1s with pardonable pride Mr. Kittie relates a good story anent Saddlebags, his trusty old mule. “I would not part with that old mule for any sum of meney,” said Billy a few days ago while discussing the outlook for deer shooting thie season. He is trained to the chase as well as any hound, and aithough you may consider ita flash of imagination, I can positively assure you that. SBaddlebags will snort and come to a standstill when he arrives within smelling distance of a deer. Butif you should miss a good shot then look out for kicks. That old mule will buck up and down hill until he finds his rider is thrown out of the pigskin, and then off he will star! for his stable. “Why he is the wonder of the age, and as 1 never missa good shot, you know, the friendship that exists between us is naturally of the warmest kind.” It is expected that venisun stakes will be plentiful in the Country Club this even- ing. A fine of §50 is impozed upon any member or guest who kills a doe or spot- ted fawn, The crack shots of the Tamalpais Club will be in the saddle bright and early this morning. Among tie members who will hit and miss are: G. Domergue, A. Rose, € La Coste, John Siebe, F. Osborne, H. Williams and Billy Berg, a sportsman who is known as the champion German-hill climber of the club. He will hunt on foot in preference to riding on horseback. John Bergez expects toaccomplish some wonderful shooting with a new rifle which he recenily received from ‘‘Papa’” Muser, who is visiting relatives in Germany. Mr. Bergez has promised his friends that he will not dismount and tie his steed to a pooseberry tree this time should he have occasion to draw a bead on big game. Johnny Siebe is living in hoves that he will be 5o fortunate as to geta shot at a deer standing within ten yards of his The fac-simile signature of 4 is on every wrapper of CASTORIA, girl, and says she will not let 2ny one take her away again. From the story told by Mr. Meagher, who is a Postoffice messenger, it it very pluin that all the faultis not on one side, and that a marriage of a boy of 19toa girl of 16 is not likely to prove happy. ““We were married five years ago,” said Meagher to-night, “‘and during that time my wife has left me several times. Three weeks ago she came nhome at midright with the little girl, and I asked her where she had been. She would not tell me, and we had some words and the next morning she went to Mrs. Dougherty’s and I have not seen her since. Her statement that I met her and sneered at her a few hours before she decided to commit suicide is not true. 1 have not seen her since she left home three weeks ago. Neither have I squandered the money she got from her uncle, She was not living with me when she got it, and we were not reconciled until after it was all gone. Ido notearn a big salary, but I bhave always tried to support her, but she has not found happi- ness in our home.’” —————————— * otes. ALAMEDA, CAL, July 14.—Mrs. Emma Tap- pan hes sued her husband, R. B. Tappan, for a divorce. Desertion and failure to provide are the grounds. The husband is & well-known attorney.
