Retail Liquor Dealers Subsecrib- ing Liberally in Aid of the Red Cross Society. Judging by the report 6f the Retall | Liquor Dealers’ commlittee, the subscrip- tion being rajsed among men engaged in the business in aid of the Red Cross So- clety will be a generous one. Subscrip- | tion lists have been left in the establish- | ments of prominent retail dealers, and visitors have in many cases placed their names down for liberal amounés. The lists will be called in within two weeks, | and the money so collected will be turned over to the society as the contribution of those who appreciate the noble work they are doing. It 18 su%s{ested by the committee that no money be paid cver to any one but an authorized person or persons showing the | proper credentials of the Rea Cross So- clety. !

WASHINGTON, June 17.—In the Sen- a resolution, which was referred to the Naval Affairs Comppittee, extend- ing the thanks of Congress to Naval Constructor Hobson and the heroic crew of the Merrimac, and authorizing the transfer of Hobson from the con- struction corps to the line. Representative Underwood, in whose district Hobson's home is situated, has introduced a resolution in the House extending the thanks of Congress to Hobson and his crew, authorizing Hob- son’s transfer to the line and promotion to lieutenant commander. He con- ferred with the President and Secretary Long before offering it. NEW YORK, June 17.—A special to the Herald from Washington says: In- structions have been sent by the Navy Department to Commodore Watson, commander-in-chief of the blockading squadron, directing him to send Cap- tain Nicol Ludlow, commanding the monitor Terror, to Havana to negoti- ate for the exchange of the Merrimac prisoners. Captain Ludlow does not go in his own ship. One of the smaller vessels attached to the blockading squadron, flylng a flag of truce, was ordered to convey the officer to a point in front derstand he will communicate with an- other vessel sent by Captain General Blanco. Captain Ludlow has author- ity to accept any proposal regarding prisoners which Captain General Blan- co may make. The authorities are anxious to secure Hobson and the men with him without delay, in order that they may be removed from Santiago de Cuba before the battle for the posses- sion of the city occurs. In sending Captain Ludlow to Ha- vana the authorities were guided by in- formation received confirmatory of the press dispatches, announcing that the Madrid Government had authorized Blanco to treat with this Government for the exchange of prisoners. It is understood in naval circles that Rear Admiral Sampson’s negotiations with Admiral Cervera resulted in fafl- ure because the Spanish commander dld not feel authorized to negotiate the exchange without consultation with Blanco and Meadrid. It is untrue that any prisoners have been taken by the army expedition now en route to San- tiago de Cuba, who are to be exchanged for the Merrimac crew. WASHING1ON, June 17.—The fol- lowing telegram has been received from Commodore Watson: - “On the 14th I sent Captain Ludlow, on the Maple, under flag of truce, with full power to negotiate exchange of Hobson and the seven petty of- ficers. Chief of staff answered by let- ter that after reference to Madrid the captain general will communicate by Simply Means Delay. WASHINGTON, June 17.—The naval officials are somewhat puzzled at the failure of the effort to exchange Hob- son and his crew, just announced from Havana. Of course, this is not perma- nent, but simply means that the Ha- report that came from Madrid was that the exchange had been author- Government has not yet found means HEATY CAINS BY SOCLALISTS Result of the German Elections. CENTRISTS YET IM CONTROL HOLD BALANCE OF POWER IN THE REICHSTAG. Prince Bismarck’s Organ Declares the Secret Ballot Must Be Abolished in the Empire. Speclal Dispatch to The Call BERLIN, June 17.—Results from 339 districts show that 165 second ballots will be necessary. Returns thus far assure the election of 34 Conservatives, 6 Imperialists, 71 Centrists, 44 Reform: ists, 6 National Liberals, 2 candidates of the Radical Union, 32 Socialist Dem- ocrats, 11 Poles, 1 Dane and 7 Inde- pendents. It is Impossible as yet to predict the composition of the new Reichstag. The crisis of the elections will occur over the second ballots. A few facts, however, stand out plainly. The first is that the Cen- trists will, as heretofore, with probably diminished strength, hold the balance of power with 100 seats, enabling them to sway the Reichstag in either direc- tion. The second is that a cartel ma- Jority will be next to impossible, and the third is that the Socialists’ will after all, not only largely Incroase their poll, which it is estimated will reach 2,000,000 votes, as against 1,086,- 000 in 1863, but will also increase their {Epresentaulon blv 10 or ey were Involved in only 52 ballots.

Among the prominent persons re- elected are Count von Kanitz, Prince Hohenlohe, Prince von Arenberg agd Herren Bachen and Bueb. The Duke of Ratibon was defeated. Herr Bebel who was elected at Hamburg, was de. feated at Strasburg, which returned a socialist at the last election. Count Limburg Stirum was re-elected.

In 1893 | ED ALL [N LIBERTY Bunker Hill Day Duly Celebrated. \ CLORI | | | | ENTHUSIASM AT LCS |A LARGE CROWD ATTENDED ! FROM THIS CITY. Patriotic German Citizens Express Their Readiness to Stand by the Flag Even Against the Fatherlana. | _The 123d anniversary of the battle of | Buuker Hill was fittingly celebrated yes- terday at Los Gatos by the Bunker Hill Assoclation and the Sons of Vermont. At least 2000 people went down to the Bunker Hill Park at Los Gatos to join in’ patriotic unison in memory of the day which marked the beginning of our self government on a national basis. Patriotic ardor and a fervid enthusiasm character- | ized the celebration yesterday. The speakers carried the audience back to the first beginnings of the American nation ‘and told of the great deeds of the prede- cessors of those warriors who are now stamping their names on the book of fame with indelible and ineffaceable lines. The vocalists also worked in the channels of patriotism until the very air was alive | With color and the glories of our coun- try. | The large crowds that attended the| | celebration were prepared for the hot | weather of the Santa Clara valley. The left Third and | two special trains that lay morning had | Townsend streets yes(erg on board a distinctively Summery band of women. Even the mén cast aside their city clothes and were thus sayed from the awful fate of roasting. The ther- mometers refused to do any more work in Los Gatos yesterday during the after- noon. The mércury then lost its expan- sive force and went on a strike. During the morning the heat was endurable, but | after midday the visitors reveled in the ! | pastimes of lemonade drinking and a mopping of the brow. But with_all this superabundance of heat the passion for dancing among the enthusiastic followers or Terpsichore conquered all atmospheric discomforts and, as soon as the platform on which the literary exercises were held was cleared, the dancing began. The San Franciscans who attendad the procession was immediately and the march made to the grounds with the band in the lead. The shaded with the overgrowing branches of large oaks, was soon filled withovt any delay, and’ the literary programme was started. Willlam G. Badger was the president of the and in a few re- marks pald a glowing tribute to the fathers of the revolutionary period. The “Star-Spangled Banner,” ~rendered by Tillie Balinger, which followed, was a musical expression of the sentiments enunciated by President Badger. the singing of F. K. Tobin, whose ren- dition of *““The Sword of Bunker HIll" was so well recefved that several en- cores were necessary. Judge Edward A. Belcher was next introduced, and he aved the way for the orator of the day, amuel M. Shortridge. time of the revolution and the rebellion with that of the present day, and showed | | how the same spirit of liberty pervaded them all. with seeming effect of the intrinsic mean- ing of Bunker Hill day. He said: “On that day the people of this country shook off the trammels of tyranny and estab- lished the first principles of self-govern- ment. From that day to this the princi- ple of liberty. has been pre-eminent in the American mind. It js exemplified in our present war, and whl not rest until We stamp the same spirit upon the down- trodden people of Cuba and - Manila.” Orator Shortridge then apologized for being there and addressing even.a pa- triotic people on a patriotic subje¢t when duty kept calling to the front, but he pledged himself to his nation's cause when his services should be needed. Games and races, in which the young men of the town and some of the visi- tors indulged, completed the outing. The one hundred and twenty-third celebra- tion of the association will be reme bered as the most successful held so f: Ei it PATRIOTIC GERMANS. Appropriate and Highly In- teresting Serviees at St. Markus Church. Memorial gervices were held {n St. Mark's German Lutheran Church on O'Farrell street, between Franklin and Gough, yesterday evening, in honor of the adoption of the United States flag and the day of Bunker Hill. The cere- monies were so appropriate, interesting and patriotic that it is to be regretted that there was not a lar attendance, for the sentiments expresSed were such | as should have been ‘“heard of all men."” | There was quite a number of soldiers | from Camp Merritt and members of a German military organization present, aside from the general public. Following appropriate music Pastor Fuendeling delivered an address in Ger- man, setting forth the high virtues of patriotism, as shown by the American people since the days of the Rebellion, and the necessity for its perpetuation in the same spirit in order that the republic may 50 forward on a great and uninter- rupted career. He also told of the many advantages of being a Christian soldier, and said that in a contest like the one now in progress we have not only the right but the Almighty on our side. The speaker exhort®l his hearers to be true to their God, their flag and themselves. Lr. M. Magnus delivered the English oration, in_which he sketched in a brief and interesting manner the incidents that led up to the revolution. His description of the battle of Bunker Hill was very vivid, particularly where he expatiated on the great bravery with which the poorly armed, raw_American t;oopswlth- stood the repeated assaults of the best soldiers of the English army. He said we were not celebrating the fact that in that conflict some 1500 men were lost on the two sides, but the fact that with that battle began that dawn of American freedom which has made England a dif- ferent country than it would otherwise have been. ot only that, but it has ex- ercised a mighty influence upon English colonies, as well as upon the govern- ments of Germany and France. In the war with Spain Americg is taking a stand never taken before—that of ending the brutal oppression of the hel_gless by the power of sword and valor. The mil- lions of Germans who have made this country their home have learned to love it better than the Fatherland, and with these men standing for the flag. we need no other allies. The speaker declared that no matter what kind of an alliance America might make she would be giv- ing more than she could Kosslbly recefve. ‘Let her depend upon her own match- less resources in fighting men and money,” gald Dr. Magnus, “and no mat- ter what country may turn its guns and soldiers against our beloved land, be it France, England or Germany, the Ger- man citizens will stand by the flag that guards their homes and symbolizes the liberties of the greatest nation on earth. We hope the day may mnever come that will require us to raise the sword against the Fatherland, but if it does we are ready.” nl exercises closed with ni)mpfllte remarks from Chaplain Clark of the Sevengh Regiment Volunteers and the singing of the ‘‘Star-spangled Banner" by Miss Groeninger.

The opinion is expressed that | only enough troops are needed to sus- | tain the position of the marines now at | Guantanamo and the rest may be sent | back, leaving the navy to aid the insur- | gents in taking Santiago. | MOLE ST.

Guantanamo has | been decided to be the only available landing place. WASHINGTON, June 17.—No news is expected from the fleet at Santiago be- | fore Sunday. That statement was | made at the Navy Department to-day and was based upon accurate knowl- edge of the course taken and the speed the vessels are traveling. The na- val officials are still confident that the vessels have taken the easterly course by way of Cape Maysi. They should have rounded that point by this time. The fixing of Sunday as the day | | | | {upon which news might be expected is | supposed to have been brought about by the fact that it will take some time, | probably as much as two days, to land the troops and their heavy equipments. Seeing that several days were required to effect the embarkation of troops at Tampa, it is not to be expected that much better time can be made in get- ting them ashore on a hostile coast without any of the facilities afforded at Tampa for the work The War Department has been work- ing strenuously to establish cable com- munication over the French cable be- tween Hayti and the point near San- tiago where the marines are now camped. The Mancel was yesterday at Cape Haytien with everything pre- pared for the start, when trouble was found with her clearance papers. As soon as the fact was reported here Gen- | eral Greely induced the State Depart- ment to_send instructions to_ United States Minister Powell at Port au Prince to use his good offices with the | Haytien Government to facilitate the departure of the ship. It is belleved that this has now been accomplished and the Mancel is now either in Guan- tanamo Bay or very close to that place. As soon as cable communication is re- stored it will be operated by the French Cable Company itself, the only restric- | tion imposed by the United States be- ing the establishment of a censorship at Camp McCalla. For the same reason that they de- | clined to make public any information | respecting the sending of the Santiago | expedition until the transports had | started, the War Department officials | decline to say whether they are about | to send reinforcements to General Shaf- | ter immediately. But without reference | to reinforcements the department will | establish a line of almost daily steamers with General Shafter to keep his troops | supplied amply with food, munitions of war and whatever else may be needed. It may be necessary also for the Gov- ernment to undertake by means of this express service to supply in large part | with food and ammunition the Cuban insurgents already under Garcia and Rabi, who are reported to have come to the support of Lieutenant Colonel | Huntington's marines at Camp Mc- | Calla. | It the Government should find it necessary to reinforce General Shafter | with a few thousand additional soldiers | they can be very conveniently and at short notice transported on some of these supply ships. | i Eureka Society Incorporated. | The Eureka Society for the Protection | of Children was incorporated Kxesterda V.
