Native Sons—and Daughters—will own | the town for a time this their descent upon San Jose for their an- nual celebration of Admission Day. The twenty-two parlors in this city will give the people a slight intimation of what the grand procession in the Garden City to- mMOrrow v be by marching from their hall on Mason street to the Third and Townsend t depot, where they will board a special train for the scene of their festivities.

VIQ SORE 19 HAND Raw Sore From Finger to Paim. Physicians and Medicines No Avail. Cured by Cuticura. ‘When my little boy was two years of age, dry spots commenced to appear on different partsof his body. Last winter it seemed to go to his hands, and 1 was obliged to keep his first three fingers done up all the time, as it was a raw sore, beginning to extend down to- ‘ward the palm of the hand. We consulted three different physicians, each a certain length of time, to see a benefit of their medicines. I think now, after using CUTICURA, that some of the salves that I used did more injury than good. A gentleman (who sat next to me in church) asked me the matter with my boy's hand. I took off oneof the cloths and showed him, he told me he had been in a hospital in Boston, where for all skin diseases they used CUTICURA REMEDIES. I immediately pur- chased CUTIOURA SOAP, CUTICURA (oint- ment) and CUTICURA RESOLVENT, put aside what I had been using, and began with them. ‘Welll they cured that hand. 1wasafraid that this winter it would break out again, but no, it is all cured, and 1 have not had to havea cloth on it this winter.

The attractions of the Irish Fair are not diminishing, though the exposition is drawing to a close. Popular interest was manifested by a large throng of attend- ants at the Pavilion last night. The “spielers” were In good form and herald- ed the special features of the occasion in a style that caught the fancy of visitors, and brought many dimes to the box office of each particular side show. Blarney Castle’s prestige as a popular resort was attested by a line of visitors at its gates from early in the evening until the closing hour of the fair. The Art Gallery Theater gave a good billlast night, but the patrons of the performance were obliged to walt a long time for the curtain to ascend. The walting hour was employed by many in viewing the pictures, admiring this sec- tion of the Pavilion. On the other side of the Pavilion, the agent of the Rocky Road to Dublin kept the spectators alive to the merits and at- tractlons of the route. The fishing in the Lake of Killarney may be good at this season of the vear, but the anglers last night did not boast of an extra catch. S e et Verdict for the Railroad.

THE MINERS’ CONVENTION. It Will Be Held This Year Two Weeks After Election Day. The annual State convention of the Cal- ifornia Miners’ Association will this year be held on November 21, in San Fran- cisco. This was decided upon at a meet- ing of the executive committee of the as- sociation held at the Union League Club's rooms last evening. No other business of importance was transacted at the brief session. Professor S. B. Christy of the State University, who was one of the Cal- ifornla delegates to the International Mining Congress at Salt Lake City gave a talk on the congress, and Chairman Neff directed that all special commit- :foes prepare full reports for the conven- n. ———————— FINDS RESTAURANTS IN BAD CONDITION INSPECTOR DOCKERY MAKES A ROUND OF CHEAP ONES. Gives the Customary Ten Days’ No- tice That Kitchens Must Be Placed in Good Order. ““Many of the restaurants of San Fran- cisco are filthy beyond belief.” Such was the appetite dispelling statement made by Chiet Food Inspector Dockery last even- ing. “Deputy Lahaney and myself made a trip of investigation to-day,” continued the Inspector, “and saw much that was unpleasant. We invaded one restaurant kitchen after another. While the major- ity were in fairly good condition, there were many that contained the accumu- lated filth of years. “For two months past we have investi- gated restaurants. It is our policy not to announce in advance when and where we propose to investigate, as such announce- ment defeats our efforts to better the prevailing conditions.” “My trip among the restaurants to-day was not fruitless, however, as many pro- prietors had not learned of the proposed visit. Lahaney and I took the district south of Market street and east of Fourth. We entered sixteen restaurants. The first filthy place that we found was 29 Third street, g‘rank ‘Wonne is the pro- = e Two Handsome Banners to Grace the Sai Jose Parade. Landry C. Babin, a real estate agent, and made a proposition to lease the structure known as the old Supreme Court build- ing, on Merchant street, for the purpose of converting it into a camp for the re- concentrados from the forbidden terri- tory. This building has for a long time been almost entirely vacant, the only oc- cupants of the two upper stories at the present time being Coroner Hawkins and a shirt manufacturer. There was a time, however, when offices in that bullding commanded a premium, and the income from the property was equivalent to that from a good gold mine. The property is owned by three parties—R. C. de Boom, Marie de Sleyes and the heirs of Ange- lique de Apoloniere—all of whom no doubt would be pleased to have it produce a rental sufficlent to pay the taxes and a fair interest on the valuation. The Frenchmen have not yet succeeeded in coming to terms with the owners, but they stand ready, g0 it is claimed, to take a chance In the venture. They hope .to secure a low rental and by sub-letting it to the women whom they propose to cor- ral in the building expect to make a hand- some profit. The argument advanced in favor of this enterprise is that these women will be thus taken off the streets. This building contalins thirty-three rooms, and Mr. Babin, the agent, and Mr.' de Boom, one of the owners, are waiting to hear from the two philanthropists, who robably delaying the consummation of the transaction until they can asce: tain whether they can also secure the ad- Joining three-story buiding on the east, by M. J. Newark. e the Newark bullding can be leased, it is qfluite likely that the scheme will be carried out. ‘Whether Coroner Hawkins and the lone shirt manufacturer can be induced to move from the old Bupreme Court build- ing is doubtful, but as they are only ten- ants from month to month they can easily be ejected after the usual notice is given. Coroner Hawkins’ office is rented by the Board of Supervisors. It was rumored that a doctor was inter- ested in the movement, owing to his hav- ing a contract for medical attendance up- on these women, and that he was acting as a go-between in the matter. When informed of this rumor last evening the doctor became indignant and emphatically said that anything he had done toward bringing about this concentration of the exiled women had been simply in the in- terest of a society for the conservation of health, of which he and Dr. P. J. Tormey are the regularly employed physicians. This society o ich Dr. Fitch speaks was organized two years ago, one of its principal objects being the establishment of the system pursued in France. Paul Ny, a Frenchman by descent, and an em- ploye of the Smith Label Company, is ‘the due to any negligence on the part of the motorman. ———— Broke Her Hip Bone.

This establishment is a saloon with a lunch counteras an attraction. The kitchen in the rear and two shed rooms behind were in bad condition. I ordered the 1prnprl?mr to clean and thoroughly puri his establishment within the next ten days. If he fails I shall close the place. “The Transfer Restaurant, 153 Third street, was the second that needed atten- tion. The proprietors are Schaefels & Corrodi. The kitchen was filthy, so was the store-room. I gave orders here to clean up within ten days. ““The fruit and vegetable store of Bar- bieri & Co., 155 Third street, was in an ansavory condition, especlally the back portion. They received the ten days’ no- tice to improve conditions. The restau- rant at 36 and 38 Second streel, conducted by Kroneck & Zehule, was in bad condi- tion. The Sunset Cafe, 108 and 110 Third street, recelved ten days’ re?lte. also the Electric Kitchen, conducted by Car- dini & Solari, at 108 Third street. “The proprietors of Berlin Restaurant, 249 Fourth street, recelved orders to whitewash the kitchen and clean the place genern.ll?'. While I was around with my eputy I had five other men in other sec- tions of the c]t&’. They visited elght!v—flve restaurants and tamale places and found four that needed prempt attention. One of ‘these, a tamale kitchen, kept by Mrs. M. J. Tate, recelved the ten days of grace for cleansing purposes. It is”located at 150 Eddy_street. 'he New Orleans Res- taurant, 1203 Polk street, kept by Baddich & Dumaraz, was in bad order, as was also that at 206 McAllister street, conducted by J. P. and J. T. Ennis.

On August 28 Donlin went to his home at 45 Clementina street in an ugly mood and beat his wife so_ brutally that she was confined to her bed for five days. He was arrested for battery and was released on ball. He went straight home and abused his sick wife, which led to his arrest for disturbing the peace.

ANOTHER ACT BROWNE AND BRUNE Removed Deeds From Their Bank. °LACED THERE IN ESCROW D. P. TARPEY HAS ANOTHER CHARGE TC MAKE. This Allegation Will Be Brought Out in Litigation, Criminal and Civil, Soon to Be I-sti- tuted. The deeds to valuable real estate in Mex- fco, the property of Edward Byrne, left in escrow in the Moscow National Bank, | pending the arrival of a transcript of | title, were fllegally removed from the | vaults of the institution prior to the ar- rival of the document by present Secret | Service Agent Robert S. Browne, late | president and director of the defunct | Moscow banking institution, or . his | brother, Clarence M. “Brune.” That the | deeds were left in escrow in the bank pending the arrival of the transcript is substantiated by documents in the pos- ! session of D. P. Tarpey, who has pre- ferred charges against the brothers, and | the fact that the deeds have been remov- | ed, coupled with the fact that the trans- | cript has not yet arrived, clearly estab- | lishes the contention that the accused ex- | officials of the bank are guilty of the il- | legal act with which they are charged. | The first link In the chain of evidence which has been welded tending to estab-| lish the guilt of the accused brothers is | a letter written by Brume to H. S. Krig- | baum, who acted as the agent of Edward Byrne, dated January 27, 1897. The let- | ter was mailed in Moscow, Idaho, and re- | fers to the proposed deal between Byrne and Brune, which was later almost com- pleted. | It stated that Brune had arranged with the bank, of which he was the cashier, to | take care of the deal, to look over the | abstract of titile upon its arrival and to | care for other contingencies which might arise. It was necessary, even though the transaction did not savor of a swindle, that the deed to the property transferred by Byrne to Brune should be legalized in Mexico after the consummation of tne deal. The fact that the transaction did savor of a swindle, and in fact bears all the earmarks of dishonesty, made it im- perative that the deeds be legalized as soon as possible, that In event the fraud was discovered and Byrne took steps to recover the property he would meet with greater difficulty than if the documents still remained in the vaults of the Bank of Moscow. In consequence on February 4, Lhree days after the failure of the bank, Judge Sepulveda, United States Consul at the City of Mexico, received a telegram from: Brune lnstrucflng him to Imme- diately record the deeds from Byrne to Brune and to answer by telegraph. The deeds in question had not yet ar- rived in Mexico, and indeed it was thought by Byrne that they still remain- ed within the vaults of the bank. The following dar, however, Judge Sepulve- da received, in a registered package, the deed, a check for $16 on a New York bank to cover expenses of recording, and a letter instructing the Consul to have the deed legalized and recorded immedi- ately. The letterinclosed in theregistered package bears the date of January 22, 1897, but the stamp of the United States Postoffice on the package shows | it to have been postmarked on January 28, showing that the letter must have been dated back to suit the exigencies of the occasion. Sepulveda then had the deed legalized, and on February 6 sent it by registered mail to George H. Ked- zle, United States Consul at Durango, with Instructions to register it. On the same day Consul Sepulveda telegraphed Brune, “Have sent deed forward to Ked- zie for registration to-day.” These are the facts showing that the deed was removed from the bank with- out the knowledge of Byrne, and also that they must have been removed from the bank either on the day Brune mailed his communication to Krigbaum, on Jan- uary 27, relating to_the proposed deal be- | tween Byrne and Brune, or on the fol-| Jowing day. The registered package was | vacelved by Consul Sepulveda on Febru- =v 5, and it takes fully seven or eight | daxa for mail posted at Moscow to ar-| rive at the City of Mexico. In event di- | rect connection is not made it might take from nine to ten days for the trip. Con- sidering these facts but one conclusion can be reached; that the deeds were taken from the bank and mailed to Mex- | ico, and -the letter of January 27 was written for the purpose of allaying any suspicion that might arise in the mind of the victim. There was but little fear | that Byrne or his agent would discover the fraud that was bein® perpertated | upon them, but as fear and suspicion are always uppermost in the guilty mind, Brune probably decided to take o chances, walked to the vaults of the bank, removed the deeds, mailed them and awaited the - collapse of the bank, which he knew was inevitable. “The wreck of the bank reached our cars but a few days after the deeds had been mailed to Mexico,” said Mr. Tarpey yesterday. “Of course, I was astonished at the sudden failure, but lost but little time in starting to make investigations. 1 thoroughly verified my suspicions that fraud was responsible’ for the failure of the institution and a few days ago mailed my charges to the Secretary of the Treas- ury, in whose department the ex-bank officlals are at present employed. I then took the case before the local Government officlals. 1 was in some fear at first that this matter would not get the investiga- tion it deserves. I first presented the papers to Dostoffice Inspector Munroe, and ‘asked him if it did not look like a clear case of using the United States malls to further a scheme to defraud. He looked the papers over carefully and said that if all the allegations were true it was a good case, but it would be necessary to have it tried in Idaho, as the incriminating letters were mailed at that place. “1 told Mr. Munroe that I thought he was Inistaken; that every letter writtan in ccnnection with the buying or selling of the bends was connected ~with the gwindle, while the letters themselves might contain nothing incriminating. He gaid tkat he would think the matter over and see what could be done, as he does not want any violator of the postal laws to escape. f course it was not in his rovince to express a direct opinion, bat | e advised me to file the papers in the Idaho district in case nothing could ba done with tiem. % “Mr. Munroe showed_the papers to In- spector Erwin and_ District Attorney 'oote, who held a different opinion. They thought that, as according to the papers, a swindle had been perpetrated, any let- ter bearing on the case in any way was incriminating, and as such letters were mailed in this State the case is within thglrdjurl!dlctlon and will be fully invest- ated.’” KAH the paxers have been formally turn- ed over to Attorney Foote, who, in turn, has placed the case in the hands of his assistant, Bert Schlesinger. Mr. Schles- inger has been so busy with the Clarkson case for the past few days that he has not had time to i“ through the papers :haroughly, notwithstanding their impor- ance.

Heated Argument Made by the Noted Speakers at the Convention of the Women’s Press Association. The eighth annual convention of the Women's Press Association, after rather flat, stale and unprofitable session, closed in a blaze of glory last evening, with ringing cheers and a magnificent dis- play of verbal pyrotechnics. Like diplomats, the members of the as- sociation kept their best for the last, and Senator Perkins and General W. H. L. Barnes found the audience larger and in an appreciative mood ready to side with | the more convincing speaker in the a gument, “‘Shall We Hold the Philippines. Barnes spoke first, inflaming the audi- ence with his running story of patriotism, his brilliant review of America’s recent and glorious victories and a magnificent tribute to our sailor and soldier heroes. Rapidly and succinctly he reviewed the history of the country, gradually nearing the present time and tracing en route the story of the great acquisitions. He dwelt upon the opposition with which territorial acquisition had always met and opposed the tradition that would make of us a hermit nation. “Why should we not take what we have won?” argued the General. “Can the Philippines hurt us? finite boon to them?’ “We went to those people,”” continued the orator, “and we promised to be their friends. Is it possible to turn those people back again to their oppressors? “We want the Philippines because they offer to us a magnificent territory; be- cause there is no longer such a thing as a sailing man-of-war; because coal is king. But we don't only want a coal hod for the United States navy; we want the land to civilize the people, to Christianize the people. We want those islands as an outpost for the great American people, and where the flag has once gone up it must never come down."” ‘When Senator Perkins.took the floor in the face of the applause that was still ringing for his opponent, without any pre- amble he at once began to demolish the pretty castle of sentimental phrases that the general had reared. Where Barnes gave sentiment Perkins gave facts. Ruthlessly he destroyed the alluring picture of the Philippinés with thousands of Americans luxuriating on enormous wealth-producifig sugar plantations and showed the country clothed in all the hor- rors_of the destructive earthquake, wue death-dealing cyclones, the deadly cholera and the enervating, prostrating heat of four degrees north of the equator. “1f you have any missionary work to do,” sald the Senator, “come right home here to do it. And when you have fin- ished with San Francisco you will prob- ably find a field in New York. If we save this country we are doing pretty well.” The cheap labor of the Chinese in Man- ila the Senator offered as an argument as to the impossibility of our boys com- peting with them, and ‘cheap labor means danger to a republic,” he de- clared. In conclusion Senator Perkins said: “Let us confine ourselves to this conti- nent. Let us revere our banner as we now do. Let us maintain our national d!gnitfl. our national honor. Let us build war ships, but never let us bring in any element that is so antagonistic to repub- lican government as are the various sects and tribes that inhabit the FPhilippine lsxlundu.” : e nterspersed with a programme of mu- sic and song, during pthe afternoon the members of the Women’'s Press Associa- tlon joined Mrs. E. O. Smith In a discus- sion ‘of the facts. presented by the lady l,;_l her paper, “Does a Man Own His Own ace?” 5 Mrs. Smith claimed: that in this day of sensationalism and caricature the press seemed to think that they alone owned all faces, to do with them as well or as badly as they pleased. The caricaturist came in for many hard taps by the lady, who was ably seconded in her sweeping assertions and all-round abuse of the dis- torter of faces by Mesdames Cooley, Bretherick, Dr. Beecher and Mrs. Stan- a| and_on the other | hand may not the United States be an in- | | | | 3-DAY SPECIALS!
