THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JULY 15, 1897. MERRY IS MINIST Envoy Extraordinary to Central American States. | NOMINATION SENT TO| THE SENATE. ; Appointment Considered as| Favoring the Nicaragua Canal. THE DIET'S OPPOSITION WAS CIRCUMVENTED, Probable Technical Error In the State Department, but Con= firmation Certain. WASHINGTON, D. C. July 14.—The | nom:nation ot Captain William L. Merry of San Francisco to be Minister to N racua was sent to the Senate to-.!ay, as predicted in THE CALL dispatches. The | official title is Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Nicuragua, Costa Rica and Salvador. Senator Per kins said to THE CaLy correspondent to- night: 1 believe this appointment will be very popular in Calilornia. Captain Merry is | universally esteemed by the people, not only of California but of the entire Pa- citic Coast. As the captain of a ship he has acquired a nautical knowjedge that has made him an authority on the coast. His residence 1n Nicaragua enabled him to thoroughly acquaint himself with theé Nicaraguan canal subject. He is even familiar with the route the canai will take. He is a man of rare intelligence. His literature on the canal subject has been widely read and has been of great assistance to thoss of us in Washington who hava been working to secure the canal. During my last inter- view with the President I broached the canal subject by suegesting thai the| nowmination of Captain Merry would be | accepted by the people of California and the entire country as meaning thav the administration favored the canal’s con- struction by this Government. Although the President did not commit himself positively, I left with the impression that he favored the canal.” With reference to the repprt that some opposition had developed in Washington as to Captain Merry's appointment, it ap- pears that there was no opposition from the Paciric Coast, but that the *'Diet”” of the five Central American States senta cablegram to Washington stating that Captein Merry would be persona non grata to them. The “Diet,” it seems, isa | body of men representing the five Central American States in diplomatic matters. The United States Government no longer recognizes the ‘‘Greater Republic of Cen- | tral America,” as it was formerly called, | but of lste years has divided the five Btates into two groups, as follows: Nica- ragus, Costa Rica and BSalvador and Guatemala and Honduras. ‘When the cabiesram was received from the “Diet” President McKinley sent for Senator Perkins and showed him a copy ofthe message, which bad been translated at the State Department. The Presiaent seemed to think that this was sufficient to prevent Captain Merry’s nominat:on, but Senator Perkins asked him to defer his decision for a few days. In the meantime the Captain’s friends were at work. A cablegram was soon received by President McKinley from President Zeiaya of Nica- rsgua, saying that Captain Merry's ap- pointment would piease the Nicaraguan republic and that he would be received with open arms. Letters and teiegrams aiso came from San Francisco and many other poiuts in California and the Pacific Coast States urging the President 10 ap- point Captain Merry. BSenators McBride of Oregon and Frye of Maine also saw the President at Senator Perkins’ requesi. The nomination, as it went to the Sen- ate to.day, appoints Captain Merry to “Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Salvador, when, according to Senator Perkins, it should have been Nicaragua, Honduras and Salvador. He says that according to the dipiomatic and consular appropria- tion bill Nicaragua, Honduras and Saiva- dor are in one grouv and Guatemala and Costa Rica in another. He is inclined to be'ieve 2 mistake has been made at the Btate Department, but is not qui:e sure of it. He will investizate the mutter to-mor- row. There is nodoubt of Captain Merry's confirmation. Hissalary will be $10,000 & year. | S RAGSDALE I8 LEFT OUT. His Nomination May Not Il'c Mads for | Some 1Time. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 14.—Two | of the California Congressmen were dis- appointed to-day when they read the list of nominations by the President. Repre- | sentative Loud had recommended Pro- fessor John P. Brun of Lelend Stanford University as Consul to Zurich, 8witzer- land, but an Illinois man got the place. Representative Barham hoped that his fellow-townsman, J. W. Ragsdale, would to-day be abpointed Consul to Tientsin, China, but it was not inciuded. No other person was named for this post, however, and it is possible that it may go in before Congress adjourns, notwithstanding the report of an evening paper to the effect that to-day was the last day for the con- sular applicants to get in their work for some time. They flocked to the White House in large numbers, leaving standing room a thing to be desired. They wanted to see if there was not some hope that they coula get upon that batch of nominations at the last moment. None succeeded. The list was closed yesterday afternoon, A number of Congressmen who tried to have it reopened to-dsy were informed that it was too late. They were also given to understand that it will be a long time before the President acain takes up con- sular appointments. 1t is semi-officialiy stated that, with an occassional exception, | Francisco but are unavailable. the President will make no more consalar nominations until about September 1, after he returns from a season of rest. He will probably inform all candidates of this if it is his intention, as was indicated to-day. — President McKinley Sends a Long List to the Senate. WASHINGTON, D.

Treasury Depar ment D:cides as to the Material for San Francisco's Building. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 14.—The Treasury Department has decided to use marble to construct the new Postoffice | building at San Francisco. THE CALL cor- respondent was told so at the Treasury Department to-day. Congressman Loud has written a letter to thedepartment pro- testinz against the use of marble. He urges several objections—tfir-t, that it will greatly increase the cost of tbe building beyond the limit fixed by Congress, for if marble is used it will have to be trans- ported from the Eis:, as the California quarries are mot only remote from San He says als) that marble is not suitable for the ex- terior of the public building, for expe- |{ rience shows in damp weather it stains | and rasts. The rainy season in California would have this effect on the marble, while the dirt and dust of the dry spelt would also discolor the marbie. He suggests tbat either California sandstone or granite be used. Mr. Loud prefers the former. He said to Tae CALp correspondent to-night that he thought that a base constructed of granite, with the upper part of the struc- ture built of pink sandstone, would make a very pretty effect. ©One of the experts in the Supervising Architect’s otfice says that if either granite or sandstone is used the plans will nave to be changed, as the ornamentation of the building can be carved in marble only. Chief Executive Officer Kemper disagrees with him. Mr. Loud will have a talk with the treasury officers before he leaves for San Francisco about the kind of stone to be used. FELBUKMS SUCCESSOh. Loud Will Not Activaly Oppose the Ap- tment of Lynch. WASHINGTON, D. C, July 14.—Rep- resentative Loud is very much better, and will be abte to go about as usual in a few days. He savs thatif hisimprovement continues he will go back to San o of Congress; otherwise he will visit in Massachusetts until Eeptember. When Mr. Loud was seen by Tue CaLLcorre. spondent to-nisht reference was made to the fact that the delegation, with the ex- ception of himself, bad indorsed J. C. Lynch for Collector of Internal Revenue to Drug lnspector at San Franec:sco. “Well, why don’t they get their men appointed ?” asked Loud, cantly. “Icin’t tell you that these nomi- nations will not be made to-morrow nor the next day nor the next. WhenI am well enougn to go about I am going to visit the President.”” It is understood that Mr. Loud has no hope of defeating the nomination of either Lvnch or Tufts, but he feels that the nominations should not be acted oa without consalting him. For chis reason nesenta friend to the White House the other day 1o request that no action be taken until ne could see the President. Mr. Loud admits that he has notbing to urge against either Lynch or Tufts, but be dont want any snap judgment to be taken while he is sick. There is no doubt about the appointment of either one of the parties. S NUT RECOG iZ+-D Bf REED. Barlow Fails to Bring Upthe 8an Pedro Hesolution.

Europe's Concert Sald to Have at Last Agreed Upon a Scheme of Coerclon. LONDON, Exc., July 14.—The Standard has received a dispatch dated Constanti- nople, July 12, saying that the Porte has agreed to reduce the war indemnity de- manded from £8,000,000 to~£6,000,000, at the same time decluring that itis the ex- treme limit of concession it will make. ‘Ihe dispatch adds that the Grand Vizier had a long and stormy interview with the Russian Embassador, in which the latter insisted that the Turks must eyacuate | Thessaly. The Grand V.zler replied that Turkey would comply when Russia had evacuated Kars and Batoum, Another dispatch says ministerial coun- cils were held on Bunday and Monday, the result of which was a long report stigmatizing the concert of the powers as a league of the cross against the crescent. The Sultan auswered this report with the following irade: | | *“Iam convinced that the efforts of the | powers are directed entirely to the mtin- | | tenance of peace. It is the piain duty of ‘Purkey, whose sentiments are hkewise pacific, to put an end to the pre:ent ab- normal situation. Consequently 1 com- mand my Ministers to find the necessary means for conclading negotintions, if pos- sible, and signing preliminaries by Thurs- day.” ’))fhe correspondent, while admitting tains that Lis report is accurate, The Standard, in an editorial apparent- Iy cfficialiy prcmpted, conveys the 1dea that the meeting of the Cabinet to-morrow | will aim to arrive at a definite decision re- garding the coercion of Turkey. It fur- ther seems to suegest that a scheme is afoot by which Great Britain and Russia will apply force to the Ottoman empire, tha other powers consepting. The Athens correspondent of the Tele- | graph says the powers are considering a | 1 scheme by which Russia, Austria and Great Britain will co-operate to coerce | Turkey. The correspondent says he| learns from high authority thatit 1s pro- | po-ed that Rus-ia shall biockade the Bos- | phorns and Great Britain the Dardanelles, while Austria shali seize the railroad to Salonica. France will occupy Smyrna if Dnecessary.

Mr. McDowell madez a splendid start, his easy, powerful stroke giving him an advantage which he never lost to the end of the race. He was ?uite clear at the end of the Temple sland, and from that point seemed to be merely paddling, so far as exertion wi concerned. He reached the half distan in 3 minutes and 5 seconds, and was then three lengths ahead. He rowed a beauti- ful race, not giving Guinness any wash, and reached Fawley court boathouse in 4 minutes and 7 seconds, the three-quarters distance stake in 5 minutes, the mile stake in 6 minutes 51 seconds.

GOLD DEMOCRATS OF KENTUCKY Hold a Well-Attended State Convention at Louisville. Buckner, Watterson, Carlisle, Breckinridge and Lind- say as Delegates. The Ex-Secretary Made Permanent Chalrman—He Assalls the “Twin Heresles.” LOUISVILLE, Kv., July 14.—The sound-money Democrats made a good showing at their convention here to-day. Buckner, Watterson, Lindsay, Breckin- ridge ana Cariisle, with nearly every other party leader of State prominence, were amonyg the delegates. The representation was surprisingly large, there being delegates from 117 of the 119 counties. Music Hall was packed with spectators, and there was great en- thusiasm, The convention was called to order by Becretary Carroll of the State Central CGommittee, in the absenco of Chairman Davie. State Senator Sims ot Bowiing Green was cnosen temporary chairman and delivered a long speech. An organization was quickly effected. General Buckner was already on the plat- form committee for the Etate at large, and the chairman added Henry Watter- son and Colonel Breckinridge. The three names were greeted with cheers, Ex-Secretary Carlisle was made perma- rent chairman, and delivered his first political address since leaving the Cabinet. He said: Protection and free coinage are twin here- sles. A man who belieyes in one is logically bound to believe in the other. . When the ancient Democratic faith shall have been re-established, as it will e, if our free institutions are to be preserved; when protection of iudividual Iiberty, estab- lishment of justice and equality, and pres:rvation of law and order Is recognized by OUT p207™==s primary objects of all just gov- ernment, these heresies will be heard of no more. The Democratic party is not responsible for any bad legisiation complained of by the peo- ple; it never enacted laws to tayor one class and injure another; it Las fostered no monopolies of trad2 or industries; has taxed no man for the benefit of another; has violated no right of person or property by de- basing the currency or otherwise; nor has it from the beginning of its or- gamzation down to the p¥osent hour ever attempted to deprive the peopie of the c.vil, political aud reiigious rights secured by the It has never justified or ex- cused violations of Iaw by individuals or by riolous combinations, nor has it ever al tempted to weaken the authority of the courts by assailing their integrity or threat- ening to destroy er independence. Why should such a party desert its own standard, repudiate all its past history wnd enter into & conspiracy with its own enemies to break down public and private credit at home and abroaa; to repudiate contracts already made; to convert the Government into a so- clalistic despotism by giving it a monopoly of ail the great instruments of Froductlan and transportation, and to mske life and property insecure by the substitutivn of mob ruls for the law of the land? A single victory of such a coalition would be more disastrous to the party and the country than a thousand defeats in the struggleior correct principies; and they are real friends of Demoecracy who adbere resolutely to the old standard and refuse tosupport these new and dangerous policies. The resolutions reported by Colonel Breckenridge were mainly a reaffirmation of ti.e Indianapolis platform. They score the socialist and paternalist Chicago plat- form. The convention adjourned after the adop- tion of rules until evening. When it reas- sembled at 8 o'clock the following candidates for Judge of the Court of Appe ls were named: ex-Lien'enant Govervor J. R. Hindman of Adair, John G. Orendorff of Logan County and C. M. Aiberti of Fayette. Be. fore the balloling was more than half over Orendorff and Alberti had withdrawn and the nomination of Hindman was mede unani- mous. The convention adjourned after Hindman's speech of aceeptance. PACIFIC GROVE KIDNAPING. Young Daughter of a Chinese Fisherman Carried Away by Three Mongols. PACIFIC GROVE, Car., July 14.—AN the residen's of the local Chinatown are wrought up over the kidnaping of a young Chinese girl last night. The 14-year-old daughter of Quong Sue, a fisherman, went to a near-by bydrant for a bucket of water shortly afier 8 o'clock. She was seized by three Mongols, gagged and thrown into a wagon waiting near by and driven off in the direction of Monterey. The few who saw tne occurrence were, they say, too frightened to interfere, but gave the alarm as soon as the abductors bad gotten safely away. A renrch was set afoot and the father of the gir! came to Pacific Grove to notily the officer<. He did not acquaint them with the f.cts until this mornine. No trace of the mer and their prize has been found. Local Chinamen gre greatly excited, as they believe the kidnaping was instigated by one of the rival Chinese companies. S ON THE DIAMOND.
