THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JANUARY 29, 1898. 5 UNCLE SAMY - SOLDIERS - ENTERTA NCLE SAM contributed by far the most brilllant entertainment that has yet been offered the Jubilee visitors. His soldiers presented a programme at the Presidio yesterday that delighted an audience of over 20,000 people. Every event had a thrill inr it, and every move the soldiers made w; greeted with round after round of applause. It was a splendid show, and the Presidiotroops won a great victory. The street-car lines were not able to handle the crowc Hundreds walked all the way from downtown districts, over the hills and across the lots to the military reservation, and they were not sorry for it. The United States army @oes not often entertain the people it protects by such displays. The infantry, the cavalry and the ar- tillery vied with each other to win the plaudits of the multitude, and the ad- mirers of all these branches of Uncle Bam’s military department were about equally divided. Colonel Miles, glittering in gold lace and snowy plumes and mounted on a black, prancing horse, took up a po- sition immediately in front of the grand stand, gnd gave orders for the enter- tainment to commence. A review and march past was the opening number. The rank and file of the First Infant- ry led the line. The battalion is the oldest military organization In the United States. Its ranks were first filled during the revolutionary war, and George Washington was once its com- mander. Men who have done much to make American history have risen from its ranks. It marched®n review, car- rying the glory of all the honors it has won.

Cowboys and Vaqueros Show TheirSkill With the Lariat. About 1000 persons witnessed the per- formance of the Wild West Show at Central Park yesterday. Beginning with the grand entree, there wereeight- een numbers upon the interesting pro- gramme, including the roping and handling of wild steers by the cowboys and vaqueros and also the riding of % Before the performance commenced Mr. Charles Roy read an announce- ment describing the show, and telling what the varicus features were g§ntend- ed to illustrate. He pointed out the historical importance of many of them, as showing what the early pioneers had to centend with. There will be an- other performance again to-day. pamats bt e MANY PRETTY BLOSSOMS.

The music yesterday was furnished in the afternoon by the Hebrew Or- phan Asylum Band, and at night by the Native Sons’ Band. In speaking of rangements for the fair are by this time almost completed and the inte- rior of the barn-like structure has been transformed into such a realistic rep- resentation of the frozen regions of the North as to send cold chills chasing up and down_the spine of the Califor- nian who is accustomed to green fields and blossoming flowers the year round.

Californians. Among the new musie is the Jubilee Overture, by Lindpainter, which will at once be recognized as a splendid paraphrase of “America” and the Grand American Fantasie, by Vie- tor Herbert. Neither of these pleces has yet been heard on this coast, and they have attracted much favorable attention in the East. Preceding the fair will be a short street parade to start at the corner of Grove and Polk streets at 7:15, and pass through the principal streets in the immediate vicinity of the Pavilion and disband just as the fair opens at 8 o'clock. The committee in charge of the fire- ‘works to be exhibited from the dome of the City Hall has met with such liberal response from the merchants in that vicinity that it promises something altogether out of the ordinary line of pyrotechnic exhibitions.

AUBURN, Jan. 27.—The old newspa- per hand press that was brought across the plains in 1846 by Sam Bran- nan, and which is now owned by Hon. J. A. Filcher of the Placer Herald, was to-day shipped to San Francisco to be placed on exhibition at the Mining Fair. W. H. Dickerson, who worked the press thirty years ago, will accom- pany it, and it is proposed to print a fac-simile edition of the California Star, the first paper published in San Francisco.

It Provides for the Payment of Bonds “At Option” in Silver Dollars. ALL AMENDMENTS BEATEN Closing Arguments in Which Demo- crats Criticize the President and Secretary Gage. Bpecial Dispatoh to The Call. Call Office, Riggs House, ‘Washington, Jan. 28. ¥ After a debate, animated at all times and occasionally acrimonious, which occupied the greater part of the week, the Senate this evening, by a decisive vote of 47 to 32, passed the Teller con- | current resolution. The resolution is a practical reaffirmation of that of Stan- ley Matthews in 1878, and is as follows: “That all the bonds of the United Btates issued, or authorized to be is- sued, under the said acts of Congress | hereinbefore recited, are payable prin- cipal and Interest, at the option of the Government of the United States, in sllver dollars of the coinage of the United States containing 412% grains of standard silver, and that to restore to its coinage such silver coins as a legal tender in payment of said bonds, principal and interest, is not in viola- tion of the public faitk nor in deroga- tion of the rights of tne public credit.” All efforts to amend the resolution were voted down by majorities rang- ing from five to twenty-nine, Lodge's gold standard substitute being defeated by the latter majority. The vote on the Lodge amendment was: Ayes, 24; noes, 53. The events of the day leading up to the final vote were full of interest and importance. It was a field day for the orators of the Senate, no less than twenty-five Senators embracing the op- portunity to speak upon the subject un- der discussion. The public interest in the debate, as was attested by the at- tendance in the galleries, which were crowded throughout the day, and that it was important, was evidenced by the statements of several of the speakers that the discussion was but the prelim- inary alignment of the great political partics for the contest of 1900. From 10 o'clock this morning until 7 ’ 5 PASSED this evening the contest was continued. ‘When the voting b n it was evident that party lines were being broken on both sides of the chamber, but it was on the substitute offered by Lodge of M achusetts that the most decided k o rred. 4 Allison of Towa side Michigan did not answ on that roll call, and ma ny Republic- ans voted directly against it. Upon the final pa ge of the resolution some Republicans who supported McKinley | and the St. Louis platform in 1896, like | Carter of Montana, Chandler of New | Hampshire, Clark of Wyoming, Pritch- ard of North Carolina, Shoup of Idaho, Warren of Wyoming and Wolcott of Colorado, voted for the resolution be- cause, as Wolcott announced, th; did not believe the resolution committed | unlimited coinage of silver. | The first speech of the d: Burrows of Michigan. id that the Republican party was pledged to secure 1f possible, international bimetallism, and the President would do everything in his power to carry out that pledge. Mean- 1ime the existing gold standard would be maintained. Until the int ment was secured the purpo: ministration was to continue the kind of bimetallism we have now, whereby 500,~ 000,000 silver dollars were maintained at a parity with gold. Any proposition which looks to the abandonment of thi tion. which was likely to creat parity between the coins of the ct 2 was in violation of the public faith and in derogation of the rights of the credi- tor. ‘White of California spoke in suppor the resolution, and analyzed at s length the position of the Republic party upon finance. He spoke of the Ia of definiteness of the President’'s mu sage on the larger question: Th sage referred to Secretary n and invited inspection. There was no op- position expressed to that plan, ‘“and doubt! ,”" said White, “if the President did not approve the Gage plan he would have said so.” The Senator then referred ironically to the New York banquet last night, at which the President spoke. Fairbanks of Indiana followed against the resolution. He sald the purpose of the resolution was not fragkly expressed | on its face, and it was only in the course | of the debate that it developed that th | essential purpose was to give an expres | sion of the United States Scnate favora- | ble to the free and unlimited coinage of | siiver at the ratio of 16 to 1. In the | course of his remarks, Fairbanks read a clegram received by him from Secretary age as to the methods in paying bonds. In this Gage stated that gold, when de manded, is not refused, but, as a matt of fact, gold is seidom called for, and few payments are made in gold. Referring to | Senator Tellér's advocacy of free silver, Fairbanks sald that while he did not | question the lofty purposes inspiring the Colorado Senator, yet they carried him to the point where all was dependent on this one question of silver. Wolcott of Colorado was the first speaker under the fifteen-minute rule, which went into effect at 2 p. m. He thought that any Senator, whatever his financial views, could vote for the Teller resolution, and it involved nothing except carrying into effect the Government's present obligations. He thought that de- nunciation and abuse heaped upon those who supported the resolution were un- warranted, for he did not think the man was born who would betray his Govern- ment by offering to pay its obligations in spurious money. He referred with scath- ing sarcasm to the sale of bonds by the Cleveland administration in 1894, denounc- ing it as one of the darKest pages in American financial history. He declared that the men of the West might be en- trusted with the national honor. Among the other speakers were Fora- ker of Ohio, Chilton of Texas, Nelson of Minnesota, Allison of lowa, Gray of Del- aware, Allen of Nebraska, Bacon of Georgia, Tillman of South Carolina, Gallinger of New Hampshire, Elkins of West Virginia, Warren of Wyom- ing, Cullom of Illinois, Butler of North Carolina, Rawlins of Utah, Ald- rich of Rhode Isiand. Aldrich closed just as the clock marked 6, the hour set for voting, and the Vice-President promptly announced that the voting would pro- ceed. At this time the galleries were filled to overflowing, and a large number of members of the House, includin, Speaker Reed, occupied the area back o the Senators. The Nelson amendment was first pre- of the ad- @ sented, declaring ‘‘that it is the duty of the Government of the United States un- | those who supported it to the free and | in opposition | clivered by | ional agree- | der existing laws to maintain the parity in value of pld and siiver money, S0 that the dol al shall for all monetary pury ¥s be equal in ulue to the dollar of the other metal.” Vest moved to table the amendment. The vea and nay vote gave the first test pective ments resulting 42 cor of tabling the amendment. ame the Lodge amendment,asfol- at all the bonds of the United sued or ‘authorized to be issued the s: acts of Congr herein- e payable, principal and under before recite est, in coin or its equivalent, that any other payment without con- t of creditor would be in violation of public faith d tion of his = ken di- v came forward with a new as follows: “‘Strike out all clause and insert or other obligations issued or authorized the said acts of Con- er at all the of the United States | to be i | I recited should be paid, al and interest, in the money that is the highest money in the world.” ”* Vest | again moved to table. Carried—7 to 31. Hoar offered another new amendment to go at the close of the resolution as follows: “That under no circumstances will the principal or interest of the public debt be paid in depreciated currency or in any money other than the best money of the world.” The amendment was tabled on Vest’s motion—i2 to 32. Foraker proposed an amendment for- merly suggested by Spooner, who was absent, as follows: “That it 1s declared to be the financial policy of the United States that until there shall have been obtained an international agreement with | the leading commercial world for the free colnage of silver, | which agreement the United States is hereby further pledged to promote, the nd honor and credit of the United re solemniy pledged to preserve old standa ;. and all silver a parity with gold, and all obligations of the United States shall be maintained inviolably at the present standard.” The amendment suffered the fate of those going before—tabled, 44 to 33. Hoar presented the same amendment as the last, proposing it as an additional section of ‘a separate declaration. This was lost, the vote being the same as on the Foraker amendment. ffery proposed an amendment as fol- “Provided, that if, at the time of payment of the principal or interest of the bonds, the market value of silver s not at par with gold at the ratio of 16 to 1, the principal and interest shall be paid gold or silver at the option of the cred- | itor. The amendment was tabled without a yea and nay vote. This disposed of amendments, and the the Teller resolution. The earlier votes had shown that its passage was a fore- gone conclusion, yet there was the keen- est interest at this culminating feature of the contest. “On_this_vote,”” announced the Vice- President, “the ayes are 47 and the noes 32, and the resolution is agreed to.” The vote in detail: Ayes—Allen, Bacon, Bate, RBerry, Butler, Cannon, Carter, Chandler, ' Chilton, Clark, Clay, Cockrell, Danlel, Gray, Harris, Heit- feid, Jones of ‘Arkansas, Kenney, Kyle, Lind- say, McEnery, McLaurin, Mallory, Mantle, Martin, Mille, Mitchell, " Money, ' Morgan, Murphy, Pascoe, Pettigrew, Pettus, Pritchard, Rawlins, Roach, Shoup.

The pairs throughout the voting were as follows: Turley with Deboe, Faulkner with Elkins, Gorman with ve, Jones of Nevada with Proctor, WHithall with Spooner. The first named would, in each case, have voted with those sustaining the resolution and against all amend- ments, while the last named would have voted against it and for the amendments. There was no demonstration on the an- nouncement, and, on motion of Allison, the Senate adjourned untili Monday. Harveston on the Stand. SANTA CRUZ, Jan. 28.—There was hardiy standing room in the Superior Court when Constable Joseph Harveston was called to the stand this morning. Al- though a powerful man, he was complete- ly unnerved at times and became much excited.

Repeatedly Delayed by Running Aground on Sand Drifts. River Route Badly In Need of Im- provements of a Permanent Nature. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. STOCKTON, Jan. 28.—The river steamers are having more trouble be- tween here and Antioch this winter than for several years past. The sand and debris at several points in Stock- ton Channel and the San Joaquin is washed in the direct course of the steamers, and the prospect of exceed- | ingly low water through the dry sea- son now prevailing would indicate that | heavy dredging must be done or navi- gation will be seriously interfered with. It i{s now common for steam- ers to be several hours late through being caught in the mud and sand. The J. D. Peters was hung up all last night within sight of the steeples | of Stockton, and did not get off until 11 o’clock this morning. last night on time. At Dutchman's Bend, about five miles below this city, the river branches, part of the stream continuing in the old bed and part run- ning through the cut. Across these waterways there is a wide bar of sand. The boats can usually pass over this in safety or can jump it by making a “run” and sliding over the ridge. The Peters, however, was too heavily laden, and she stuck when half way over. She churned the water and groaned for an hour trying to free herself from the bar, and finally settled down to the con- clusion that there was no use trying— that she would walt for high tide or for the up boat to take her off. Early this morning the T. C. Walker came along, and she wrestled for two hours with rope.and hawser to take her sister craft off the perch. Finding it useless, she went on. The tide was at its height at 11 o'clock this morning, but at 10:30 it was high enough for the Peters to float, and she steamed off and continued her Journey to San Francisco. DEATH STRIKES IN EUREKA. EUREKA Jan. 28.—Mrs. L. C. Putnam died this morning after a lingering ill- ness, a victim of consumption. Mrs. Put- nam was 24 years of age. She was the wife of Lou C. Putnam and a daughter of Mayor and Mrs. David Evans of this city. On December 17, 189, she left here for Kobe, Japan, whither Mr. Putnam had preceded her, and on_ February 25, 1897, she became his bride. From the time of her arrival in the Orient she* com- menced to fail, and as no hope for her recovery was held out by her physician she was broujht back to her native city, ‘where she arrived on January 2.

All Competition From the British Co- lumbian Coast Shut Out for Ten Years. Copyright, 1898, by James Gordon Bennett. OTTAWA, Ont., Jan. 28.—Promoters of the Yukon transportation schemes— | and their name is legion—are not the only persons disgruntled at the terms of the bargain which the Government | has made with MacKenzie & Mann for | the construction of 150 miles of raflway | from the head of navigation on Stickeen | River and Lake Teslin. Murmurs of discontent at the deal, the details of which have been doled out pilecemeal, | are heard on all sides. Now that the terms are beginning to be understood, | business men, mining investors and in- "dependent newspapers are protesting vigorously. The company, it now ap- | pears, is to have the choice of 5000 | squaraamiles in the Klondike gold fields, | besides a cash grant of $337,000 from the British Columbia Government. These lands are to be exempt from taxation for ten years, and while other mining companies and miners must pay a royalty of 10 per cent, the contractors, behind whom is the Canadian Pacific Rallroad Company, will only contribute a royalty of 1 per cent on their gold. But it is the “monopoly clauses” which are the most distasteful. The first of these clauses prohibits for five years any other railway from Alaska through Canadian territory to the Yukon. The second prohibits for ten years any other railway from the British Columbia coast to the Yukon, thus blocking the whole coast access, American and Ca- nadian. R SR BACKED BY PROMINENT MEN. An Important c«rmpa—l; Organized to Operate Dredges on the Yukon. SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 28.—An im- portant company has been organized here with ample available capital te operate steam dredgers on the aurifer- ous bars of the Yukon River and tribu- taries, and also to operate a line of steamers on the Yukon. The corpor- ation is known as the Stanley Gold Dredging and Development Company. It includes men of national reputation, such as United States Senator Thomas C. Carter of Montana, Congressmen Benton MeMillin of Tennessee, James Hamilton Lewis of Washington, J. E. Osborn of Wyoming and W. H. King of Utah, Judge James B.

San Francisco, Milwaukee and Seattle for the bullding of dredgers and steam- | ers. The scope of the company for the development of the placer beds of the Northwest Territory and Alaska in- cludes the establishment of a line of | steamers between St. Michael and up-| per river points. Mr. Stanley was one of the lucky | Klondikers who came down last sum- | mer with $112,000 in nuggets.

Tt is the purpose of the company to engage on a large scale in working the gravel and sand cn the bars in various streams to gather up the fine gold that will bring ample reward to the enterprising men engaged in this gigantic project. About 60,000 stamps are found loose in the letter bags of the United King- dom each year.
