De- | spite General Parado's written assur- ance that the organization of volun- teers is not to be disturbed and their arms not to be taken from them they | feel that Blanco is playing fast and | loose with them. They feel that if General Gomez would offer to treat with the Madrid Government after their organization had been blotted out they would not exist a an twenty-four hours. This may be true or they may not be sure of their organization, as Colonel Parado has so solemnly declared, but at all events the colonel’s volunteers have | been unable to obtain an audience with | the captain - general every afternoon since Februar: when a delegation of officers of the volunteers called at the palace and requested to be allowed to see Blanco. organization the captain-general was so busy with affairs connected with the inauguration of an aggressive move- ment in the eastern provinces that he able to see them.

For the time being their anger is turned from Americans to the present Gov ernment, and it is anticipated they may gather at the palace and shout their utterance to Blanco. This will amount to little unless the rabble gathers and starts a riot, turning the attention of the mob from Blanco toward the Amer- icans. If this can be done a demon- stration toward the American consulate is feared, though General Blanco has assured Consul-General Lee that all foreigners will be fully protected. Another matter that angered the vol unteers is the request of General | the imprope li With Coal Blanco that a thousand of them go to Matanzas to do police duty for a few weeks. They believe this would be the first move toward forcing them into the | field to fight the insurgents. They have | refused to leave Havana and are en- | raged at Blanco for renewing the re- quest which had been refused two months ago.

Y., March 5—John Charl- ton, for nine years a member of the Board of United States. Indian Commissioners, died at his home here to-day, aged 68 years. He went to California in 1850, and marked that he did not think it worth his while to reply to such statements in reference to his aspirations for the gubernatorial nomination. The railroad commissioner added with feeling that if his public and private record during | his long residence in this State was not | a sufficient refutation of the reports he had nothing to say. “Are there any new candidates for the nomination?” was asked. “No; none that I have heard of.” Who are in the race so far? “Well, of course you know that Mr. Maguire has been prominently spoken | of for the nomination, and, concerning | his candidacy, I have nothing to say. Then, there is Dan Ostrom of Yuba County. Dan is a candidate, of course | —he’s a sort of standing candidate,” | added the railroad commissioner, with a smile. “And then he remarked, your townsman, A. B. Butler. derstand he desires to procure the nom- ination.” “How asked. “I don’t think Governor Budd will run again.” said Mr. La Rue. “I heard him say at a banquet given by the Iroquois Club of San Francisco that he would not take the nomination if it were ten- dered him on a silver tray, as was ex- tensively published at the time.

SAN JOSE, March 5.—The board of governors of the California Associated Cycling Clubs held an interesting meet- ing at the rooms of the Garden City yeling Clubs held an interest- ing meeting at the rooms of the Garden City Wheelmen this evening. President Charles Albert Adams presided, and Stanley G. Scovern was secretary. The follow- ing clubs were represented by dele- gates: The Acme Club Wheelmen, Bay City Wheelmen, Capital City ‘Wheelmen, Garden City Wheelmen, Golden Gate Cycling Club, Olympic Club Wheelmen, Pathfinder Cycling Club, Reliance Club Wheelmen, San Jose Turn Verein Cyclers, Ariel Cycling Club and Encinal Cycling Club. Delegate- at-Large Duboise of San Francisco was present. The rules governing the annual 100- mile relay race were amended so as to allow a rider to take any wheel in case of an accident. Heretofore only the trailer’s wheel could be accepted. A communication from R. M. Welch, chairman of the racing board, was read, it stating that members of the associa- tion taking part in unsanctioned meets of the schools and colleges would be suspended for the season. Tracks where the events are held will also be black- listed for a like period. The Elmhurst Recreation track asked for a blanket sanction for racing this season. This was denied, and it was decided that no blanket sanctions be given. A proposition was presented by the Oakland, San Leandro and Haywards Electric Railroad for a twenty-five- mile track relay race to be held this spring. The company will give a sujt- able and valuable trophy. The proposi- tion was referred to the track racing committee. The Eagle Cycling Club of Napa was elected to er Cycling Club of San Francisco and the East Oakland Wheelmen. The committee on interclub relations was instructed to arrange for a whist tour- nament. After the meeting the visitors were entertained-‘at:a high jinks and feast at the rooms of the Garden City Wheel- men in henor of that club’s victory in the recent annual twenty-five mile road race of the California Cycling Clubs at San Leandro.

PARIS, March 5.—It is the calm after the tempest. The coming elections will doubtless bring us back once more to As yet we have only reached the preliminary election speeches. As to the Zola question, his appeal to the Supreme Court will not come up for several days yet. Opinion is pretty evenly divided as to his chances of the points reserved in his defense being sustained by the court. If, as many barristers and magistrates at the Palais believe, the appeal is quashed, then Zola will give himself up as a decision is handed down, at least unless there is demand for delay, which would cer- tainly be accorded him. But his friends think that he will not ask any favor, and that if he goes to prison he will not even seek to gain the benefit of a re- | mission of half the punishment, which | to demand after six months’ incarceration, and which in a case like this is never refused. | The appearance in book form of his | new work, *‘Paris,” published first in | a periodical, completes, with “Lourdps‘ and Rome,” the trilogy he set himself to write, and eoincides in regard to the | time of its appearance with the close | of his trial, but this circumstance has not yet very strongly attracted atten- | tion to the book in question, and it does not seem to have obtained at the hands of the public the same success founded on curiosity which attended the publication of several of his pre- vious works. Critics are quite severe in regard to this last production of the author of “La Debacle.” They are reproaching him notably with ha.\"h}g described Paris not as the grand Paris which Victor Hugo baptized “La Ville Lu- miere,”” but from a point of view of its lower walk of life.

Shotguns the Weapons Used in the Extermination of the Hares. Special Dispatch to The Call. FRESNO, March §.—The first rabbit drive of the season, which was held south of Washington Colony yesterday, was largely attended. All the coun- try people were on hand to slaughter the pests, while quite a number went out from this city in vehicles to have a day’s sport. The drive was not as largely attended as others have been in past vears, but there were a great many people in the line and a big kill- ing was made. The line started at about 10 o’clock, consisting of men in carriages, on ranch wagons, horseback and afoot. It formed a crescent, and then began to move. It was a shotgun drive, and whenever two long ears popped up from the brush the timid hare was the target for many weapons. The line had no sooner got fairly started than a continual fusillade was kept up. The line extended as far as one could see in the smoky atmosphere, and all along there was continual firing. It is impossible to estimate the mum- ber of the animals that were Killed, as most of them were allowed to lie where they had fallen. "It is esti- mated, however, that there are from 1500 to 2000 less of the pests in that particular part of the country. It was a fine day for the drive, and all went well until the last section had been closed in on, when two slight ac- cidents occurred. One lad, whose name was not ascertained, had a nar- row escape from death, having been shot just above the eye. Two grains of shot lodged in the flesh, but did not penetrate far, as the shot had nearly spent its force. Another youth had his shin badly bruised, and it was feared that the bones were broken, but luckily that was not the case. In the track of the slaughter an overzealous exterminator of the bunnies wielded his club right and left, and in one of his swoops he landed on the boy’s shins.

BERLIN, March 5.—In the Reichstag | this week during the debate on the re- | form of the military code, remarkable statements were made by Baron von | Hertling, the Bavarian Centrist leader, and Count von Leechenfeld, the repre- sentative of the Bavarian Government.
