4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, JULY "12, 1898 committee on resolutions and platform, but his presence is more a matter of toleration than a desire to have him there, and it is safe to say theee will be no place for him or his followers either in the platform or on the ticket. Thomas V. Cator is on hand, carrying with him his usual look of importance and concern. Bretz, the ‘“breeze- maker” from Alameda, does not seem to display his former activity in the creation of disturbances, but it is early yet and the material is not hand. The Fresno contingent, headed by Van Meter, Dore and Church, is here to champion the middle-of-the-road pol- icy, and 1 be strengthened by the en- tire Sacramento delegation, headed by William Boyne, Dittmar, Camp, Ham- ilton, and the entire delegation from this county. The Alameda delegation arrfved last night and is the first to appear In an unbroken phalanx. To-night's trains are bringing the balance of the delegates, and when Chairman Wardell calls the convention to order at 10 o'clock to-morrow there will be few absentees. JUDSON BRUSIE. ANYTHING TO GET THE NOMINATION Judge Maguire Soliciting Fa- vors From the Populists at Sacramento. SACRAMENTO, July 11.—Little has been heard of Judge Maguire since he | espoused the cause of Spain in Con- | gress until a dispatch was received from him by A. B. Kinne, chairman of | the San Francisco delegation to the Populist ‘convention. Maguire tele- graphs that he is willing to accept the | Populist nomination for Governor on the Oregon platform. | position to which he He is in a position where he would accept anytning on nearly any plat- form. A Madrid platform would suit him as well as anything else. Some of the Populists here might Le willing to make a sacrifice of prefer- ences and principle to get a really ac- ceptable man of popularity to head the ticket, but they will not go out of their way to accept a man who is commonly rated as a “dead one.” Maguire was nominated for Congress on the Demo- cratic ticket and elected by Democratic votes, and now while he is holding a vas elected by the Democratic party he is soliciting a Pop- ulist nomination. The telegram which Kinne is exhib- iting is as follows: WASHINGTON, July 9.—The Oregon Fusion platform w«,m&’ be aceptable to me. JAMES G. MAGUIRE. The dispatch had the desired effect for a time. who opposed fusion remembered that Maguire had several months ago w: ten and signed a letter relative to his candidacy for Governor, The files of the Yellow Journal of San Francisco were looked up by him and he found that on.October 26 last Congressman Maguire over his own signature ex- pressed himself as follows: It is quite probable that my name wiil be submitted to the next Democratic convention as a candidate for Gove If nominated I will certainly be pleased to accept, but 1 will make no combination nor will I make any promises other than these contained in the published platform in order to secure the nomination. The truth-secking Populist could not understand what Congressman Ma- guire intended when he wrote “I will make no combination,” considering the fact that every possible effort is being made by will give him a key to the political situation. It is impossible to determine whether Ma- guire is attempting to “play both ends agalinst the middle” or simply is being slaughtered by imbecile friends.

The single dash system has been adopted by the State Board, an inno- | vation that seems to take with the pub- lic, and does away with the tedious heat affairs.

Under this system horses can be raced every day and not feel the effects of racing, as they do after a six or seven | heat race. It was decided to have alternate trot- ing and running during the twelve days of the meeting. The first day, Sep- tember 5, will be a harness horse day. ht thousand seven hundred dollars is offered in purses for trotting and pacing stakes In six events. The con- ditions are: Five to enter, three to | start. If but two appear to start, money | to be trotted for divided two-thirds and one-third. Entrance 5 per cent, and 5 per cent from money winners.

The couple separated six weeks ago after having been married two years. She went to San Jose and returned last | week. After asking Klotzley if he had | his life insured, she fired at him once | and missed. Then she fired twice at the child, again missing, though (he’ bullets passed cl to the child’s head. She fired at Klotzley a second time, the ‘ bullet entering his left shoulder, and causing a dangerous wound. Mrs. Klotzley chased her husband with the empty pistol until a neighbor checked her. Afterward she swallowed | pills and threw ‘the box that contained them into the water. The pistol the woman used has not been found. While on_her way to town she was arrested and charged | with assault with a deadly weapon, with bail at $2500. . She Is now in Jjail.

PACIFIC GROVE, July 1L.—An accident that came perilously near ending the life | | of one of Pacific Grove’s summer visitors | occurred at the bathing beach about noon to-day, and although out of danger, the vietim'is_still suffering from its results, Mrs. S. G. Squires of San Francisco was | bething in the surf with Mrs. MacMurdo, and in following her friend, who is an ex- pert swimmer and immediately struck out toward a raft, Mrs. Squires went beyond her depth. Being of a nervous tempera- ment and unable to swim, she lost her presence of mind, and, feeling herself going, opened her mouth to cry for help, thus filling her lungs with water. There being a large number of people in the surf, her plight was not observed for some seconds, but when she rose to the surface a young man who was near went to the rescue and, with some assistance, suc- ceeded in bringing her ashore. Many wi! ng hands engaged in the work of resu citation, but it required nearly two hours’ work before full consclousness was re- stored. Mrs. Squires was then removed to her cottage, and is now receiving every care. Her physician belleves she wiil have completely recovered in a few days. S URGES FATHERS AND MOTHERS TO ACT Dr. Haskell Denounces the Corrupt Influences That Dominate San Jose Schools. | SAN JOSE, July 11.—The alleged cor- ruption In the San Jose School Depart- ment was spoken of by Rev. N. A. Has- kell of the Unitarian church yesterday morning. In an eloquent discourse he referred to the recent hl%h school trouble over the dismissal of Professor Smith. Dr. Haskell sal “The administration of our schools in- jures the intelligence of the young men and women whom they are supposed to educate; therefore it is bad. It injufes the character of these young men and women; therefore it is vicious. It injures the consclence of these young people; therefore it is criminal, and every man and woman in this city whose moral cha acter has not deteriorated under these in- fluences should rise and demand that our schools be closed until they can be freed from these bad, vicious, criminal political influences.” SENATOR CULLOM ON THE HAWAIIAN QUESTION Thinks the Islands Should Be Given a Colonial Government for the Present.

WASHINGTON, July 1l.—Rear Ad- miral Ammen, retired, one of the he- roes of the Civil War, died at the Na- val Hospital here this morning, aged 78 years. Admiral Ammen had been at the Naval Hospital for ten months, and death was due to general enfeeblement of the system. He leaves three daugh- ters, unmarried, and two sons, one a paymaster in the navy. He was well known here, where he had lived many years. He served in the navy within six months of a half century. He was born in Ohio, May 15, 1820, and entered the navy as a midshipman in 1836. He first served as a passed midshipman in the Wilkes exploring expedition in the Mediterranean in 1837-33. In 1849, while ranking as a lieutenant, he was at- tached to a commission to select a site for a naval station in the bay of San Francisco, later accompanying a scien- tific expedition on the steamer Water Witch to the Paraguay River. He was executive officer of the North Atlantic blockading squadron at the outbreak of the rebellion. At the re- duction of Port Royal November €. 1861, he commanded the Seneca of the South Atlantic blockading squadron, and was sent ashore to hoist the Union flag over the surrendered forts and to hold them until the army took posses- sion. He commanded the forces enter- ing via the Whale branch in the at- tack on Port Royal Ferry, and was also engaged in the operations against Fernandina. He commanded the moni- tor Patapsco in the attack on Fort Me- Allister and Fort Sumter. 3 In May, 1864, he was ordered to As- pinwall in command of 220 seamen as passengers on board the California passenger steamer Queen. Two days out of New York a well-organized at- tempt at mutiny was suppressed by him, aided by several officers and a few volunteers among the passengers. Subsequently Admiral Ammen parti- cipated in the two attacks on Fort Fisher in the winter of 1864-65. He reached the grade of rear admiral in 1889. Of his service twenty-one years and one month were spent at sea.

G0 T0 CATCH A PRIVATEER Bpectal Dispatch to The Call. VICTORIA, B. C., July 11.—In response to the request of United States Consul Dudley of Vancouver Admiral Pulleser, commander of the Pacific British squad- ron, stationed at BEsquimalt, has dis- patched H. M. 8. Amphion, a second- class cruiser, carrying nine guns, and the sloop of war Icarus, mounting eight guns, to cruise the waters of the north tosearch for the privateer which, according to re- ports that have reached the ears of the Consul, lies hidden in the vicinity of Dixon entrance, through which the treasure ships pass on their way south. The fleet was at Vancouver in connec- tion with the celebration and citizens there were surprised yesterday to see the two warships hoist their anchors and slip off to sea. Inquiries were made, and ac- cording to the naval authorities the ad- miral declded on the information re- ceived to take steps to prevent any hold- ing-up of ships for the purpose of loot- ing. Although probably only American boats would be stopped, the injury would not in case be confined to them, as many of the miners on board with gold would be Britishers. Seafaring men here are divided in opin- jon as to the truth of the report of the privateer's presence on the coast. Many, especially those who have interests at stake, believe in the existence of the ves- sel, while others doubt it. One thing, however, is certain—a strong feeling of sympnthf with the Americans exists at Esquimalt and every officer spoken to on the matter expresses himself strongly in disfavor of gflvflleeflng. If the report that reaches here be true Captain Fin- nis has orders to blow the vessel out of ;vntedr if she shows the least fight when ound. n ‘George K e Pacific Coast Pensions. ‘WASHINGTON, July 1l.—Pacific Coast pensions have been granted as follows: California: Original—Orlando N.

There is assistance that actually alters the state of living. Weak men have weak backs. Weary men do not feel inclined to work. Weak and weary men have no such feeling as that of full power or of vitality. They are at all times forced to confess that they are unfit for the duties of man. A man who is full of power goes at his daily work with vim and a eense that he can accomplish all he desires to. The Christie second, Hobenzollern | puny man never does this.

The fire spread rapidly and in a few minutes the telephone office, which is sit- uated about 1000 yards from the region of the fire, was in flames. It has burned all the business portion of the town, including the stores of Charles Denange,’ the large establishment of Wahrlich, Cornett & Co. dealers in merchandise, W. H. Bingaman, grain and stock dealer, the Railroad Ex- change saloon, several stables and other buildings, The residence portion fs now on fire, with no hope of saving it. All tele- phonic’ and telegraphic communication is cut off. No assistance can be obtained from any of the neighboring towns, as_there is no fire department nearer than Salinas. The buildings destroyed in_addition to those already sent are the Eagle Hotel, Rodgers’ saloon, Miller's stables, Tholke's saloon, Campbell's stable, Bernord's blacksmith shop, the postoffice, Bay's Ho- tel, Stover's drug store, Grey’s " Hotel, three Swiss saloons and several other buildings. The loss will probably reach about §0,000, partially covered by instur- ance. The only protection from fire af- forded the stricken town was from several tanks in the neighborhood. The reflection from the fire can be seen from Salinas distinctly. The people here think that the whole town has been de- stroyed. m ADVERTISEMENTS. JOE POHEIM, The Tailor, See our reduction inprices.
