( W. H. Grant, Grand Chancellor Knights of Pythias. The occaslon for this outburst of en- thusiasm was the arrival of delegates | to the Grand Lodges of Knights of Pythias and Rathbone Sisters, which will convene in this city to-morrow morning, marking the first event of the week set aside for the annual rose car- nival celebration, the predecessors of which already have made this city and its floral wealth famous over half the world. A delégation from the reception com- mittee met the Donahue train and, pre- ceded by Park’s band, marched with the arriving delegates quart where the visitors were as- signed to rooms. ‘The uniformed band from Camp Hah- | man, where the uniformed rank is en- camped in a city of tents, met the Southern Pacific train as it drew in, and, escorted by the entire advance guard of the uniformed division, the | delegation from the southern part of the State was taken to headquarters and assigned accommodations. Park’s band then gave an open air concert from the portico of the Court- house for the entertainment of the throngs that lined the sidewalks, and the Pythian band escorted the dele- gates to Fraternity Hall, where a short opening session of the Grand Lodge was called to order. Grand Chancellor Grant called meet- ing to order. The grand lodge degree was conferred on 150 candidates. The proceedings to-morrow will con- sist principally of lodge work, but en- tertainments of a private nature will | take place in several parts of the city, and in the evening the great reception | to delegates and carnival visitors will be held in the Atheneum, the largest auditorium ir the city. On Wednesday there will be the big excursion to the redwoods of Guerne- | ville; on Wednesday evening the grand ball; on Thursday the public corona- tion of the carnival queen, and on Friday afternoon the gorgeous and spectacular street pageant, in a fleet of warships and many other novel features never before seen at any | carnival In California will be presented to the public.

RAIN BENEFITS GROVING BEETS One Good Effect of the Recent General Downpour. Chino’s Sugar Factory Will Pay Out Much Coin to Farmers. Fruit-Growers in Southern California Have Profited by the Showers. Epectal Dispatch to The Call POMONA, May 18.—A broad smile adorns the countenances of the people of Chino and Pomona valleys. The heavy rain yesterday has done incal- culable good to all sugar-beet fields and has been a blessing to fruit-grow- ers. Te-night another rain is ap- proaching. There will be at least 4000 acres of sugar beets ready for the Chino Sugar Factory by August, whereas it was feared a month ago there would not be enough beets to run the factory. Hundreds of sugar-beet growers who have been discouraged at growing beets this year are now as- sured of a good crop and large profit. Orange and lemon groves are so well watered by the rain that no irrigation will be necessary for another month. STOCKTON, May- 16.—Special tel phone reports from points in San Joa- quin, Merced and Stanislaus counties indicate that while the rain of Satur- day night and Sunday was of benefit to winter-sown and late summer fal- low grain, and to vegetables and fruit, especially grapes, considerable hay was down, and a good deal that had been cut was badly damaged. In some few places the rain will‘have the effect of filling out the wheat which is alive, while in other places wheat.is too far gone to be benefited. Taken altogeth- er, however, the rain has been of more benefit than the damage amounts to. The biggest crop of oranges ever raised in Oakdale will be plucked this season, while at Clements the prune crop will be immense. The rain has had the ef- fect of cleansing the fruit trees of bugs and spiders. The average rainfall was over an inch. LODI, May 16.—Over an inch of rain has fallen here since Saturday. The rain will be worth thousands of dollars to the raisers of grain, sugar beets, watermelons .and grapes, but hay-pro- ducers will suffer a ‘slight loss. The rainfall is particularly opportune for grain-growers, as it will help the grain to ripen and fill out. Indications point to a further rainfall to-night. SAN JOSE, May 16.—Rain began falligg again this morning at 4 o’clock. The total for the storm since it began Saturday afternoon was .43 of an inch at noon to-day. MARYSVILLE, May 16.—The _rainfall for the storm _which began Saturda afternoon is 0.75 of an inch; 0.70 of whicl fell on Saturday night. Growing grain and fruit will be benéfited. Prospects in Yuba and Sutter are now good for a fair hay crop. Rainfall in the foothills, with a snow storm farther up, insures to the miners of Yuba County a plentiful sup- ply of water, . REDDING, May 16.—The rain of the past few days has been of incalculable benefit to the upper portion of the Sca- ramento Valley, and_especially the moun- tain valleys of Northern _California, There is some damage reported. Dry feed is injured, but as a whole grain and feed have been benefited. . SAN DIEGO, May 16.—Rain began fall- ing again to-night and there is every in- dication of an all night storm. WESTERN STATES FEAR AN INDIAN UPRISING Military Preparations to Guard Against Outbreaks of Reserva- tion Redskins. DENVER, May 16.—From the tenor of communications received by Colonel Sumner during the past few days it ap- pears that the Indians in the depart- ments of the Colorado and the Missouri which are under his command are dis- playing an unusual restlessness, which bodes no good for the settlers in the vicinity of the various reservations. The danger of an outbreak in Arizona has become so imminent that Colonel Sumner has ordered two troops of cav- alry from Fort Huachuca to the Mexi- can boundary line, with orders to move along that line from Nogales, Ariz., to the Gulf of California, observing a strict patrol of the entire border. An- other troop has been ordered from Fort Grant to Fort.Huachuca to garrison the latter fort while the troops are in the fleld and to be prepared to assist these troops in case of trouble. One troop of the Eighth Cavalry recently was ordered from Fort Meade, S. D., to Fort Washakie, Wyo., and there is a possibility that this force will be side- tracked and sent to Fort Niobrara, Neb., instead. Colonel Sumner to-day recefved a pe- tition for troops for a large number of settlers in the portion of Nebrasks ad joining the Sioux reservation, who be- lieve the Sioux are pianning a whole- sale massacre of whites. . —————— DEMAND BETTER WAGES. Two Thousand Wood Workers Go Out on Strike. OSHKOSH, Wis., May 16.—About 2000 members of the Woodworkers' Union to- day refused to work. Several large sash, door and blind factories are involved and their operations will be greatly hampered. Each striker will receive $3 a week from the National Unionand they claim they will stay out all summer, if necessary. Thomas I. Kidd, secretary of the Na- tional Machine Woodworkers’ Union, and the State Board of Arbitration are’ here trying to arrange a compromise. The strikers demand an increase of 25 per cent with a minimum wage of $1 25, weekly pay days, abolition of female labor and recognition of the union. Sy Succumbs to Paralysis. SALINAS, May 16.—On January 19 last, when the thermometer registered 21 de- grees above zero, Louls de Lean, an old Frenchman living four miles from 8an Ardo, started for home in an intoxicated condition. Nothing was heard of him for two days, when he was found under a trestle in the waters of Poncho Rico Creek, paralyzed and with his back and 'sides frozen. He was taken to the French Hospital in San Francisco, where he re- mained until May 2. On his return he went to the County Hospital. Yesterday while he was out walking a second at- tack of paralysis came on, which killed him. He was about 54 years old and an old resident here. Must Hold Another Election. SALINAS, May 16.—The contest by U. E. Dunlap to have Charles Harte, elected Trustee of Pacific Grove by a majority of 1, declared not entitled to the seat was decided this morning by Judge Dorn of the Superior Court against both candi- dates, and a new election was ordered. The eontest was on the - g\n double marks on ball frw.fid of numer- ots, which, if re- , would elect Dunlap.

Declares He Has Done His Duty in Dealing With the Monopoly. Lively Scene in the City Council Over a Special Committee’s Report. Special Dispatch to The Cali. LOS ANGELES, May 16.—City Attor- ney William E. Dunn took occasion to- day at a meeting of the City Council to resent what he termed charges, in- sinuations and innuendos cast upon him and his official conduct by the special Councjl committee on mountain water supply. Several weeks ago this committee made a report to the Coun- cil, in which it took occasion to criti- cize the City Attorney and the City Engineer for failure to obey the in- structions of the Counclil, charging both with neglect of duty. City Attorney Dunn said he had never at any time failed to do all that was asked of him by the Committee on Mountain Water Supply. Councilman Grider of the committee in question proceeded forthwith to deny that the committee in its report had any desire to cast reflections on Mr. Dunn. He rather hinted that the City Engineer was the official the commit- tee thought had been derelict. But City Engineed Dockweller was not present. Councilman Hutchinson said the re- port of the committee was written by himself and any city official it fitted could wear it, if he saw fit. As a matter of fact the report did pass severe strictures on the City At- torney and the City Engineer for fail- ure to obey the direct instructions of the Council. The friends of Council- man Grider was chagrined because he did not defend the report made by the Mountain Water Committee, in so far as it rapped officials who had certainly failed to obey the orders of the Coun- cil. During his time on the floor of the Council Mr. Dunn said the City Water Company was ready to pay its city taxes, amounting to $11,800, provided the city would not add the usual pen- alty, which in this case would amount to $800, for delinquency. The water company has always.been prepared to pay city taxes on all of its property save the franchise. The Assessor first put a valuation of $600,000 upon it. The Council reduced that figure to $150,000. This the company thought too high and it proceeded to test the matter in court. The case is now pending. In the mean- time the water company offered to pay $10,000 city taxes, holding out the tax on the franchise. The City Tax Col- lector refused to accept part payment and the Council approved his act. The company now comes forward and agrees to pay full taxes and leave the franchise matter to be decided by the courts later. The Council will proba- bly accept the $11,800 and cut off the $800 penalt. TERRITORIAL CAPJTOL BUILDING FOR ARIZONA. Proceeds of a Bond Sale to Be De- voted to the Erection of the Structure. PHOENIX, Ariz., May 16.—The sale of $100,000 in Territorial bonds, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to erecting a Territorial capitol building, was made to-day to Charles R. Mayer, cashier of the First National Bank of Columbus, Ohio, for par and 2% per cent commission. It is understood the funds will be availa- ble immediately. The commission hav- ing the building in charge.will make pub- lication during the next sixty days for competitive plans and specifications, the design being left largely to the taste of the architect. The ultimate cost of the building will be about $300,000. It is pro- posed to use Arizona materials in its con- struction, including specimens of agatized wood from Chalcedony Parl RUSSIA BUYING GOLD. Secured All of the Yellow Metal Re- cently From the Cape. LONDON, May 16.—The St. James Ga- zette in its financial article this after- noon says: Russia to-day is said to have completed the purchase of the whole of the recent arrivals of gold from the Cape. Such a transaction is exceptional, as a considerable time has elapsed since Rus- sla entered the English market. With a new buyer in addition to the United States gold should shortly be higher. Russia pald 77s 9%d, but if the United States’ demands had not temporarily ceased it is questionable if the price would not have been above 77s 10d. It is thought Russia will buy frequently hereafter. If so, it will be another in- dication of the political wind. L 5 ial SIS REUNION OF VETERANS. Heroes of the Late War Will Camp at Los Gatos. SAN JOSE, May 16.—The Central Cali- fornia Veterans' Reunion Association has completed arrangements for a two weeks' encampment at Los Gatos, commencing on June 27 and continuing until July 11 The association includes the G. A. R, and its auxiliary societies of Santa Clara, San Mateo, San Benito, Monterey and Santa Cruz counties, which represent several thousand members. Over 1000 veterans are expected to be Ereaent. The tents will be pitched in unker Hill Park, and the people of Los Gatos will leave nothing undone to add to the pleasure of the old soldiers and their families. —_— Mrs” Castro’s Will Contested. SALINAS, May 16.—The contest of the will of Mrs. Sacramento Castro, the old- est Monterey County native daughter, who died three weeks ago, was begun in the Superior Court this afternoon. At the time' of her death she was thou{ht to be a pauper, but it has since been discovered that she owned 160 acres of land near Gonzales and other property valued at . There are four heirs-at-law, each -of whom claims the entire estate. A g Convention of Supervisors. 4 NAPA, May 18.—The first delegation of visiting Supervisors to the annual con- ‘vention of county Supervisors, which will convene in this eity to-morrow, arrived on the evening train. They were escorted to Odd Fellows' Hall, where a general re- ception was held. ' Refreshments were served and addresses of welcome made. Supervisors from all parts of the State are expected to attend the convention. o) Gives Advice to Students. SANTA ROSA, May 16.—To-night Rev. C. R.

Passage of the Resolution Ap- pointing Four Managers of Soldiers’ Home. In Opposing Colonel Bonsall of Los Angeles Loud Makes an Attack on Senator Perkins. Special Dispatch to The Call. Call Office, Riggs House, Washington, May 16. The Housé to-day received its first veto from President MeKinley, and voted unanimously to sustain the ex- ecutive. The veto was of a bill con- ferring upon the Court of Claims juris- diction in a private claims case of long standing. The day was given to con- sideration of bilis-under suspension of the rules, the measures of chief im- portance being one ratifying an agree- ment for the allotment and opening to settlement of the Comanche, Kiowa and Apache lands in Oklahoma, and to es- tablish an assay office at Seattle, Wash. Under a suspension of the rules Hull of Jowa called up the Senate bill author- izing the President to appoint an assist- ant adjutant-general with the rank of colonel and another with the rank of major. A joint resolution appointing William J. Sewall of New Jersey, Martin T. c- Mahon of New York, John T. Mitchell of Wisconsin and William ‘H. Bonsall of California members of the board of man- agers of the National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers was called up. Pending the disposal of the measure Lacey of Iowa raised the question of eligibility of Senators Sewell and Mitchell, as being contrary to the Federal consti- tution. Loud of California attacked the action of the Committee on Military Affairs in not permitting him a fair opportunity to be heard upon the selection of the Cali- fornia member of the board. He declared that Major Bonsall was unknown to the volunteer soldiers, and at length charged the naming of Major Bonsall to hava peen done at the dictation of a Senator from California_(Perkins) “to pay a political debt,”” and he (Loud) regretted the “de- bauching of the soldiers’ home 10 pay political obligations.” Replving to these charges, Hull of Towa, chairman of the committee, denied them' in teto and asserted that the com- mittee had simply followed the rule and named- two Democrats and two Re- ublicans. As to_Major Bonsall, he had eeén urged by a Republican Senator and two representatives from California and by the California Republican State Cen- tral Committes, a ‘‘recommendation, Hull declared, “‘quite as much entitled to consideration as that of the gentleman from California who has just addressed the House.” The resolution was passed, 126 to 56. The Speaker then.laid before the House a message from the President vetoing a bill conferring upon the Court of Claims jurisdiction to re-try the case of the rep- resentatives of Isaac P. Tice against the United States, brought in 1873 to recover $25,000, the alleged value of certain meters to measure the quality and strength of distilled spirits. Interest attached to the message chiefly by reason of {ts being the first veto mes- sage ever sent by President McKinley to the House. The ayes and noes were takep upon the passage of the bill over the veto, and the President was_sustained without a dis- senting vote, 183 members voting. The Senate bill to establish an assay office at Beattle, Wash., was called up. C. W. Stone said the purpose of the bill was to afford a convenient office for the Klondike gold producers, who will mine this year, it was estimated, from $12,000,- 000 to $20,000,000 of the metal. The bill carries an appropriation of $20,000 for ex- penses of the office. Lewis and Jones of Washington spoke for the bill. it. insisting that a Government assay office at Seattle was unnecessary. Can- non, speaking against the establishment of any more assay offices, declared that the motive in urging an office at Seattle was prompted by a desire of the Alaskan transportation companies, which prac- tlcal}f' controlled the Klondike output, to put down gold at Seattle at Philadelphia mint prices. ““Is it_not better for the Government,” asked dBIand. "txlrdexstnh}llish assay offi- ces and secure gol n that way than to sell bonds for {t?" 2 “Oh,” cried back Cannon, with a wave of his hand, “the gentleman would throw the patient into fits. Bonds have no more to do with this question than the gentleman has to do with heaven or sound sense.’ The bill was adjourned at 4: then passed. The House 50 p. m. Death at Santa Cruz.
