4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1898. SLAUGHTER OF CHRISTIANS ON CRETE ISLAND British, German and Spanish Con- sulates at Candia Have Been Looted. It Is Reported That Since the Trouble Began 300 Natives and 67 English Subjects Have Been Killed. ATHENS, Sept. 8.—The following dls-[ patch dated at 8 o'clock this evening| has been received from Candia: “The | Bashi Bazouk are committing ex»; cesses and Christians in the surround- | ing districts are arming to march to | the assistance of the Candians. There are eight warships in the harbor and a | fresh bombardment is expected. The | British, German and Spanish consul- ates have been looted and thus far 300 | native Christians and sixty-seven Brit- ish subjects have been killed.” The Asty says it learns from an au- thentic source that as soon as the Brit- ish troops arrive at Candia from Malta | the Turkish garrison in Candia will be expelled, martial law proclaimed and | the ring leaders of the riot put on trial and publicly hanged if found guilty. According to a dispatch from Candia sent late this evening the admirals of the international fleet have decided to compel the disarming of the Bashi Ba- zouks and the surrender of the instiga- tors of the disorder. CANDIA, Island of Crete, Sept. 8.—A detachment of international troops, | which has just arrived here has occu- pled the fortifications and restored or- der. It is now estimated that 200 per- sons were killed during the rioting. The M ulman troops protected the Chris- tians placed under their care, but they did not attempt to prevent the pillage| of Chr an houses, which continued | until the international troops arrived. LONDON, Sept. 8.—The correspond- ent of the Times at Candia, telegraph- ing Wedr v, fully confirms the earlier reports of most serious events there. He 5 “Lieute ant Haldaline and Lieuten- ant Sea wve were wounded. The sol- diers pluckily carried Lieutenant Hal- daline’s body to the boat under a hail of bullets. The telegraph office was re- atedly set on fire and the father of the telegraph superintendent was killed. The wire is still working. “The worst is feared as to the fate of a majority of the Christians. It is re- ported that only 250 have been saved out of over 1000. The situation was ex- tremely difficult. The Turkish troops | refused to aid the British, who, being exceedingly few in the town, were soon overpowered. The forty wounded were attended to by the warships. “The necessity for a large garrison in Candia had been repeatedly pointed out, and the blame lies in the quarter responsible for leaving, against heavy | odds, a handful of men to protect our | occupation and enforce our authority. The Mohammedans are pillaging Can- dia. Edhem Pasha, the Governor, de- | clares that the mob is uncontrollable, but the general opinion is against him. “Reinforcements are expected from | international administration. Canea and the Christian insurgents are massing around the cordon. As this dispatch goes reinforcements are ar- riving on the Italian flagship Francesco Morosini.” The Times correspondent, telegraph- ng later, says: “Refugees are now coming on board the Camperdown, many of them wounded. They tell a tale of great massacre.” The president of the Cretan Execu- tive Committee has notified the foreign admirals that, in view of the massacre at Candia, it is impossible to continue the effort to organize an alministra- tion until the Turkish functionaries and troops are withdrawn. He de- mands the convocation of the Cretan Assembly and proposes to place a force of Cretans at the disposal of the The correspondent of the London Standard, telegraphing Thursday from the British battleship Camperdown, oft Candia, says: The refugees tell ghastly stories of massacres. They report that no fewer than 700 Christians are missing. Sev- eral attempts were made last night to set on fire the office of the Eastern Telegraph Company. It has been ascer- tained that all the houses overlooking the British camp were loopholed for rifle fire and barricaded. This shows clearly that the outbreak was preconcocted. The behavior and attitude of the Turkish troops have been and still are inexplicable. Without going so far as | to assert that they took part in the attack on our troops—though many people are ready to affirm that they actually v the Sultan’s soldiers fir- ing on our soldiers—it is impossible Lo contradict the positive fact that they made no attempt to render assistance. Bvery Christian survivor of the mas- sacre swears that the butchery was mostly the work of Turkish soldiers, who first robbed and then slew their victims. Edhem Pasha is the man who ought to be held primarily responsible. Had he wished to prevent bloodshed he would most certainly have done so. Not until the British troops under Colonel Reld had been fighting hard for four hours did Edhem, with his Turkish soldiers, arrive upon the seene. He had then the effrontery to say that he had only just heard that the British troops were being attacked by thousands of Bashi Bazouks. It is needless to com- ment on this brazen-faced excuse. It is enough to say that Edhem Pasha must have known what was happening from the moment the first shot was fired, if, indeed, he did not arrange the plot himself. LONDON, Sept. 9.—The corespondent of the Times at Candia telegraphing Thursday, says: “It is estimated that no fewer than 800 Christians have been massacred and the town has been pillaged by Bashi Bazouks and the Turkish soldiers. All reports agree as to the disgraceful be- havior of the Turkish troops. NEW CRISSS HOW INPERDING Spanish Statesmen on Verge of Rebellion. SAGASTA VERY DEPRESSED | BCENES IN THE CHAMBER WERE MOST DISO%DER.LY. It Is Significant That Many of the Government Supporters Ab- stained From Voting in the Cortes. Bpecial cable to The Call and the New York Herald. Copyrighted, 159, by Jamés Gor- don Bennett. MADRID, Sept 8.—At the Councll of Ministers to-day Sagasta was very much depressed, owing, it is believed, to the attitude of Silvela. A crisis is generally spoken of. The peace commissionersfor the Paris conference will only be nominated af- tain—not even duration of the ministry —and the commissioners must abso- lutely hold a conference with the exist- ing Government. The disorderly scenes witnessed in the Chamber yesterday evening would have shamed a bull-ring. Fists and sticks were shaken in the air and in- vectives were to be heard on all sides. As a result several duels are expected to take place. It is understood hehe that Spain intends to bargain at the Paris Peace Conference to retain part of the Philippine Islands, but the impression somehow prevails that a republic will be established there under the protec- torate of the United States, Great Brit- ain and Germany. e General Polavieja, the former Cap- tain General of Cuba and of the Philip- pines, who has just issued a manifesto intimating that he is ready to place himself at the head of a neutral politi- cal party, is understood to be retained by Liberals and others with the object, it is claimed, of destroying the mili- tary preponderance of the Government., The Spanish Cabinet at its meeting this morning decided to take the most stringent medsures to prevent the pub- lication of the proceedings of the Cor- tes, and to provide for the censorship of telegraphic dispatches. The newspapers assert that the Gov- ernment is greatly surprised and cha- grined at the attitude of the Conserva- tives in the Chamber, which indicates that the Ministry is isolated on a mat- ter of such magnitude as the .conclu- sion of the peace treaty, Continuing, the Spanish papers ex- press the opinion that this foreshadows the downfall of the Ministry. It appears that many of the Govern- ment supporters abstained from voting last. night. -The fact is greatly com- ter debate on the protocgl.

CANNOT AGREE UPON FUSION SILVER MEN CRY FRAUD AND JOBBERY. Delegates to Both Gatherings Ad- journ to Flirt With Each Other and Sleep Over Their Issues., Speclal Dispatch to The Call. RENO, Sept. 8.—When the Demo- cratic convention was called to order by Chairman Webber this afternoon the first bombshell of the battle ex- ploded when the committee on creden- tials reported that about forty dele- gates were not entitled to seats in the convention. A motion appointing a conference committee to confer with the Silver party forces upon fusion was lost. Dennis of Washoe, chairman of the committee on platform and resolutions, moved for a reconsideration, and his motion was carried. Adjourned untll 10 o'clock to-morrew morning. The Silver party State convention was called to order by Secretary N. W. Roff shortly after 11 o'clock this morn- ing and a temporary organization was effected by the election of J. F. Mc- Donell of Storey as temporary chair- man, L. U. Updike and John Pugh sec- retaries and John Robb and C, A. Richardson sergeant-at-arms. At 2 o'clock Judge Bonnfield of the Supreme Bench was selected as perma- nent chairman. At the evening session the discord among the delegates was shown in the attempt of Chairman Coming of White Pine to submit his partial report on platform and resolutions. He recom- mended an adjournment to give the committee time to complete its report and to allow the minority to submit their views to the convention. Sharon of Storey moved that the platform be adopted at once. He had assurances that it had been completed and wanted it disposed of immediately. After a vigorous discussion on:both sides in which there were cries of fraud and jobbery, the motion was lost. A motion that a committee of five be appointed to confer with a like com- mittee which it is expected the Demo- cratic convention will appoint on the matter of fusion was carried. The con- vention then adjourned until 10 o’clock to-morrow.

" RENOUNCES RIGHTS OF SOVEREIGNTY Spain’s Bill for Conclu- sion of Peace. IT REVIEWS THE LATE WAR TELLS HOW THE NATION HAD TO UPHOLD ITS “HONOR.” After a Long Preamble the Ministers Ask the Cortes to Give Them Permission to Surren- . der;Colonies. Special Dispatch to The Call. LONDON, Sept. 9.—According to the Madrid correspondent of the Times the following is the text of the bill au- thorizing the Government to conelude peace: *The reverses suffered by our arms in the unequal struggle to which we were driven in order to defend the honor of the nation and maintain its rights de- prived us at an early stage of the ele- ments required for continuing the war. “‘The bravery of our soldiers and sail- ors proved. insufficient, as did the calm attitude of the nation, ever ready to shed its blood and sacrifice its resources for the honor of the Spanish flag. ‘“‘Separated by wide seas from the territories it was our object to protect, and these territories being closely blockaded, so that our few remaining ships could not reach them, Her Ma- Jesty’s Government has been compell- ed to admit the bitter truth, that an end must be put to the war. “The sense of responsibility entailed by the preliminary peace negotiations had weighed heavily on the Govern- ment. Notwithstanding it fully appre- clated its duty toward the country, the Government has had to consent to these preliminary negotiations and to bow to the cruel sacrifices imposed by sheer necessity. ? “For this reason and because peace must be purchased at the cost of a cession of territory and the abandon- ment of sovereign rights, the Govern- ment has thought it expedient to sound the Cortes before concluding the treaty, the ratification of which will be duly notified to both chambers in accordance with constitutional law. “The Government, whose moderate language will not be " und fault with by the representatives of the nations, limits itself to submitting to the Cortes the following bill, whose first and only article is: “The Government is authorized to renounce rights of sovereignty and to cede territory in the Spanish colonies in accordance with the peace prelimi- naries agreed upon with the Govern- ment of the United States of America.” The Times' corespondent says the bill is signed by all the Ministers.

Anti-Tellerites Adopt Resolutions, Nominate a Full State Ticket and Then Adjourn. Speclal Dispatch to The Call COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Sept. 8.—At the end of the first day’s meet- ing of the four State conventions here the situation seems no clearer than yesterday. The chances for fusion be- twen the Democrats, Populists and Tel- ler branch of the Silver Republican party appear a little brighter, judging from actions taken by the different conventions. According to an agreement reached last night neither faction of the Silver Republicans attempted to meet in the opera house. The fusionists gathered in Durkee Hall and chose Senator Tel- ler as temporary chairman. Mr. Teller made an address of two hours’ length, in which he traced the history of the Silver Republican party and denounced P dent McKinley and his supporters as enemies of silver. He spoke on some of the phases of the late war, claiming that it would not have have been necessary had the President listened to the plea of Congress when it asked for the recognition of Cuban belligerenc; He created great enthu- siasm by a vigorous advocacy of the annexation of the Philippines. J. M. Downing of Pitkin County was made permanent chairman, and a com- mittee was chosen to meet with simi- lar committees from the Democratic and Populist conventions to arrange for a fusion ticket. After this National Chairman Charles A. Towne addressed the convention. He defended his action in deposing State Chairman Broad, who, he claimed, had arranged to turn the ma- chinery of the party in the State over to the McKinley Republicans. The following committee was named to negotiate for fusion: Senator Henry M. Teller cf Gilpin, John W. Wing of San Juan, A. M. Stevenson of Arapa- hoe, Orsion A. Adams of Mesa, J. M. Maxwell of Boulder, W. T. Leggett of El Paso and C. W. Lake of Jefferson. The convention then adjourned until 10 o'clock to-morrow. The anti-Teller faction met at Co- burn Hall and elected Judge Dixon first as temporary and later as permanent chairman. ‘While waiting -for the report of the committee on resolutions, ex-Congress- man J. B, Belford addressed the con- vention. He said he was tired of being a political tramp and wanted to get back with the Republican party. He said 'Senator Teller had repeatedly stated his purpose of devoting the re- mainder of his life to the destruction of the Republican party, and predicted that he would fail. He said if silver was' ever remonetized it must be through the Republican party. B. Clark Wheeler of Aspen, nominee for Congress in the Second District, spoke briefly, after which Judge Hilton of Denver made an address. He as- serted that Senator Teller has not been the friend of silver that he has claimed to be, and paid a tribute to ‘‘the un- conquerable and matchless Wolcott” which was applauded. He sald he was tired of being a political maverick and proposed to follow *“a new light in the east,” which had recently appeared to him. At the night session of the anti-Tel- ler Republicans the opposition to the nomination of Guggenheim was with- drawn and he was nominated for Gov- ernor by acclamation. ‘When the convention reassembled the resolutions committee reported a plat- form, which was adopted. The most important planks were as follows: Resolved, That we favor the restoration of the money of the constitution by throwing open the mints of the country to the free col nafe of gold and silver at the ratio of 16 to 1; that we commend the pa- triotism, skill and ability displayed by the present administration during the trying times of the late war with Spain and are proud of the achievements of our army and navy in the victories over the enemy, especially the bravery and patriotism dis- layed by the Colorado volunteers in the 'hilippines, and the daring courage of the Seventh Infantry at Santiago; that we are unqualifiedly in favor of keeping forever the American flag wherever it has been unfurled to the breeze, whether as a re- sult of conquest or peaceable acquirement. The construction of the Nicaragua canal by the Federal Government is favored. Fusion with other parties is condemned. National Chairman Towne is strongly denounced for his action in attempting to remove Chairman Broad, and his authority to do so is disputed. The following ticket named: uovernor—Simon Guggenheim of Den- ver; Lieutenant Governor—Ira Bloom- field of Rio Grande County; Secretary of Btate—Joseph W. Millsom = of Fremont County; reuurer—l{arr{v Mulnix of Denver; Auditor—John A. Wayne of Weld County; Attorney General—H. M. Ho of San Miguel County; Superintendent o Public Instruction—Mrs. Mayme Marble of Denver. For regents of the State Uni- versity E. J. Temple, J. W. Gunnell and Dr. J. H. Pershing-were named. The convention then adjourned sine die. - _The Democratic convention elected E. C. Stimson of Cripple Creek permat nent chairman and chose its commit- tees, including one on fusion. It also listened to a speech by Charles A. Towne, national chairman of the Sfl- ver Republicans, who was invited to address them. The Populists met at 8 o'clock and chose Lyman I. Henry of Ouray as temporary chairman. 5 After the reports of the usual com- mittees Mr. Henry was made perma- nent chairman and the following fu- sion committee was named: T. M. Pat- terson of Arapahoe, Senator Porter- field of Pueblo, Representative Hart of Eagle, P. A. Wheeler of Mineral, H, 8. Tompkins of Chaffee, Frank Madden of ‘Weld and John Gray. After passing a resolution inviting National Chairman Towne of the Silver Republicans.to ad- dress them to-morrow the convention adjourned till 12 o’clock to-morrow. LEAVES ALL TO HER SISTER.

Phases and May Come to a Zonclusion at To-Day’s Cabinet Meeting. ” Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. WASHINGTON, BSept. 8—Secretary Alger has requested the President to| order a thorough and searchine inves- tigation of the War Department. In this request the Secretary has been Jjoined by Adjutant General Corbin. No decision has been reached yet by the President, who has the request of Secretary Alger under consideration, but has not yet determined whether he will grant it or not. Secretary Alger had a long confer- ence with the President to-night be- fore he left the city, and impressed upon him his earnest desire that a courtmartial should be ordered. The question. was thoroughly discussed in all its phases. Secretary Wilson par- ticipated in the conference and General Corbin was present during & part of the ‘time. It now seems not unlikely that the court of inquiry will be ordered, but it is the wish of the President to further consider the matter before an- nouncing a definite policy. ¢ The question probably will receive consideration at the Cabinet meeting to-morrow. General Griggs is among those who will not be present at to- morrow’s meeting. It is the wish of the President to take up all the particulars of the controversy. Should the investigation be ordered, it will include, probably, all matters re- lating to the conduct of the war, so far as they concern the War Depart- ment. Secretary Alger exvresses him- self as confident that such an investi- gation, if conducted promptly and thor- oughly, will result in much good. Such an investigation as has been re- quested Is, it is pointed out, beset with some difficulties. No charges of a defi- nite character have been filed by any responsible person or officlal. Sensa- tional stories and rumors, for which the administration has present knowledge that there is no foundation, have been circulated and objection is made to dignifying them by the ordering of an investigation. By those who desire and advocate the investigation it is main- tained it can do no possible harm and the controversy will be of benefit in clearing away manifest errors from the minds of many people and in placing the blame, if any is to be placed, where it rightfully belongs.

Ssanggr il 8 OAKLAND, PIEDMONT AND ATHENS PARLORS THERE Native Sons From Alemeda County Are Joyously Greeted Upon Reaching San Jose. SAN JOSE, Sept. 8.—0akland, Athens and Pledmont parlors, 700 strong, came in with a prolonged shout, arriving on a narrow gauge special at 11 o’clock. The Garden City drum corps, accom- panied by detachments from the local parlors, was at the narrow gauge sta- tlon to meet and greet the Native Sons from Alameda County. A long line of electric cars was in waiting to trans- port the ladies from the depot to the central section of the brilliantly il- luminated city. Many of the daughters availed themselves of the privilege of marching in" column and shooting Roman candles, while the sons carried the luggage and shouted. A deal of marching was done to the tune of “A Hot Time in the Old Town.” There was a notable lack of precision in the formation of the procession at the narrow gauge station. The Pied- mont band contributed some of the music, but the music was not heard by the musicians owing to the volume of shouting and yelling by incoming Sons of the Golden West. Marching up San- ta Clara street the Alameda Parlors came in friendly contact with the roar- ing sons from the peninsula of San Francisco. Then the natives dwelling in the Santa Clara Valley did realize that the conditions were highly favor- able for a hot time in the old town to- night. As midnight approaches the enthusiasm increases. First street is lurid and smoky. The Native Daugh- ters belonging to some of the parlots g0 arm in arm with their escorts and participate joyously in the animated scenes.

Yet Long Can You you do not know Tremble exactly why. It is probably because your nerves are not quite as steady as they should be, and you can sympathize with one whose are worse. Yet here is a man who has not been able to hold anything steadily in his hands for years. It is due to nervous ex- haustion, he explains, and he is in such a very shaky condition that he fears to get on an electric car. He has attributed his trouble to weakness, but according to eminent authority, the weakness is only a symptom of the disease. After a careful Great Array of Fine Horses and Cat- tle Exhibited on the Agricul- tural Park Course. SACRAMENTO, Sept. 8.—The ex- quisite thoroughbred, the stylish road- ster, the team of high-steppers, the mammoth shire horse of England, the gigantic Clydesdale, the substantial- looking Cleveland bay, the heavy but handsome Norman and Percheron, the pretty but massive French and German coach horse, the. homely but costly Spanish jack and meek cattle of the best-known breeds (Jersey, Holstein, Hereford, Durham, etc.) went to make up a procession this morning that stretched almost around the mile course at Agricultural Park. Nearly the entire lot had been en- tered for premiums and they were grand' representatives of the various welll established breeds of horses and cattle. The thoroughbred stallion Torso, winner of many a great race, and sire of a score or more of high class ones, was perhaps the' most admired of all the hdrses in the parade, but a two- year-old bright bay colt by imp. Ar- tillery from Banewor's dam had a'host looking upon him with longing eyes. There were brood mares with young foals at th-r sides, yearlings that had begun to look like Foxhalls in minia- ture -and two-year-olds that showed there was plenty of fire in them as the band struck up a lively air. The youth- ful trotters stuck to their gait going around the track, while the heavier breeds arched their necks and tried to look as proud as Lucifer. - There. were eight teams driven in the procession, eleven handsome single rigs caught the eye, while six sportily in- clined horsemen had their representa- tives hitched ‘to sulkies. The largest herd was the Brightons (of Shorthorns), seventeen in all. Frank H. Burke of San Francisco had nine handsome Holsteins on the march and the Yerba Buena ranch was repre- sented by nine sleek looking Jerseys. The judging will begin on Saturday and be finished by next Wednesday evening, .when the premlum winners will be known. i e Company F Coming.
