THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1598. READY FOR " THE BATTLE BALLOTS Republican Commit- tees Map Out Work.

Gage Will | Remain for the Present in | Southern California Districts. The campalgn committee of the Re- publican State Central Committee met vesterday afternoon to map out the routes of the orators who will go on the stump. Among those selected to discuss the political issues of the day are George A. Knight, General W. H. L. Barnes and Colonel T. V. Eddy. General| Barnes will speak at Metropolitan Hall next Saturday night, and on Fri- day evening, September 23, he will for- mally open the campaign in San Jose. Henry T. Gage, the Republican stan- dard bearer, will first make a tour of the southern part of the State and ‘h“l last weeks of the campaign will see him in the northern counties, fighting for the success of the entire State Re- | publican ticket. Gage is so well and favorably known in Southern Califor- | nia that he will be required to do but | little canvassing there. The greater | part of his time and energy will be spent in the north. The campaign' committee will meet de to further the work to be carried out between now and election day. The members have entered into the cam- paign with every hope for success, and are counted it will be found that has carried the State by a hand- 1e plurality. Dr. Pardee of Ala- ia County, who was an aspirant for subernatorial nomination, is one of hardest workers on the committee. in the fight to stay, and the clever ier in which he conducted his cam- 1 in Alameda County is sufficient antee that nothing will be over- looked by him that will tend to the o success of the Republican ty in the coming battle.

THE DEMOCRATIC CON VENTION. Committee of One Hundred Will Pre- pare a Plan—Primaries to Be Barred. The Democratic committee of one | hundred met last night and transacted a | little business, the principal portion of which wa: the appointment of a commit- tee of seven to devise a plan for a muni- cipal convention. The committee as ap- pointed by Chairman McDonald is as fol- | lows: Charles W. Fay, M. H. Herman, | el Braunhart, W. P. Hess, P. H. Mc- rthy, Joseph N. Nougues and P. J. Tomalty. From the fact that no member of the [ Gallagher was placed on the com- mittee it is presumed that the question of primaries will receive but little considera- | tion. | The resignations of P. J.

Under the auspices of the Olympla Re- publican Club Julius Kahn last night ad- dressed a large gathering of citizens at California Hajl. J. D. Hart presided. When Mr. Kahn concluded several other speakers madt brie? speeches congratu- latory of the kandidate from the Fourth District and enunciating the principles for which he stands. Mr. Kahn began by stating that he felt completely at home among his friends and life long assoclates, and declared that their confidence in him would never be misplaced. The present campaign, he was one of tremendous import to indorsement of that William McKinley. “We cannot afford to make mistakes,” great statesman, We have much to ask from the adminis- ing it by our work. Then we shall be en- titled to it and may demand it as a mat- ter of right and not mere favor. Mr. Kahn spoke eloquently of our new territorial acquisitions and the extensive fleld which they presented to American enterprise, energy and capital, and he as- serted that along with the problers of thelr government should be coesidered the manifold and varied outlook which they present for the Pacific Coast in trade and commerce. “‘Qne great trouble with California,” he said in concluding, *“is the fact that the State has always been on the wrong side of the national administration. When the administration is Democratic the State has been Republican, and the con- trary holds. But now we shall be with the majority, with the intellligent think- ers of America, and at the polls we shall be confronted only with the question of the magnitude of our victory. We shall be In line this time, and California will be a new KOH(!N\I quantity to be reckoned with in the councils of the nation.” B it FUSION COMMITTEE MEETS. Arrangements7Made t;y the Maguire Forces for the Conduct of the Campaign. Monday night the executive committee of the Democratic State Central Commit- tee resolved to encourage the formation of a union campaign committee, consist- ing of three from each of the fusion ele- ments.

The purpose in | view is to obtain a union of forces to get | voters to attend Maguire meetings. | Judge Maguire will open his campaign | | | at Metropolitan Temple to-night. Mayor Phelan will preside. Senator Stephen M. White will talk, but not occupy much time. Judge Maguire is to haveé all the | time he wants.

Harry Melvin Said to Have Enough Votes to Defeat Judge Allen for the Nomina- tion. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Sept. 13. Republicans are now being daily treated to sensations. After making an active canvass for several months to secure the nomination for State Senator, District At- torney Snook withdrew to-day from the contest. He gave no reason for his with- drawal, merely saying, “I am out of the fight, and I think this is all that is re- quired to be said.” This action of Mr. Snook disposes of an- other complication in the local feld. His only competitor was Assemblyman Frank M. Leavitt, and for several weeks it looked as though Mr. Leavitt had the in- side track. Mr. Snook, in addition to his duties as District Attorney, has quite an extensive law practice, and finds that he cannot break in upon it to do the work necessary to a successful campaign for Senator. It is not likely that any one else will come into the fight, and Assemblyman Leavitt can confidently consider himself as a Senator-elect of the next Legisla- ture. The withdrawal yesterday of Justice Clift from the contest for District Attor- ney led to many rumors that Harry Mel- vin had also withdrawn, thus leaving the fleld open for Judge Allen. This rumor was positively denied by Harry Melvin to-day. “Frank Jordan and I are working for a mutual purpose in the Seventh Ward,” said Mr. Melvin, “‘and all stories that my postion has changed during the past three months are absolutely false.” It was said to-day that Mr. Melvin can depend on over 100 votes in the convention, and has assurance that he will get many more. There is no doubt thatJudge Allen and Henry Dalton are pooling interests in the Constable Cronin is also k working with Judge Allen, and thus O: land Township and the Third and Wards are allied. Owing to an effort being made in some directions to prevent Alameda from nom- inating both her candidate: it is sald that the delegation from across the es tuary will oppose the plans of the Oa landers. Tax Collector Barber of Ala- meda seems to be assured of the dele- gation from his town, and as there s a disposition to take up Will Harlow for Sheriff, Barber will probably be h(s' own T succe . A good government club has been form- ed in the Forty-eighth Assembly Dis- trict, and it {s understood that it will in- dorse J. Harris for the Assembly. The officers are: President, first vice president, S. Ringoldsky; second vice president, Louis Asher; secretary, Ben Litzenstein; _treasurer, I. Lerner; sergeant at arms, M. Cohen. The Fifth Ward Republican Club has taken a de- clded step in regard to bolters. This is due to the fact that A. K. Grim, George C. Hunt, Louis Schaffer and others are claiming’ to be independent Republican candidates for office, but do not care to g0 before the convention. The club has adopted the following resolution: Resolved, That the Fifth Ward Re- publican Club of Oakland strictly dis- approves of the course of certain Repub- licans of this county In bolting the party and running independently for office, on the ground that such radical action has a certain tendency to disrupt the party. The following executive committee has been chosen: John Laughland, H. R. Ha- vens, W. H. Dickerson, H. D. Cushing, Byron Rutley, D. C. Borland, Willlam Nat Friend, Charles Roeth, Felton Taylor, J. L. Champlin, George Bush, Clarence Crowell and J. F. Taylor. Clinton G. Dodge has decided that he will not be a candidate for the Assembly, This leaves the Fifty-first District to As- semblyman Howard Wright and Will B. Pringle, with’ Wright strongly In the lead. IRISH FAIR BALL. Many Handsome and Valuable Prizes Awarded Last Night. The reception and ball tendered to the ladfes who have devoted their energies to the Irish Fair during the past month was held last night at Mechanics’ Pa- vilion. The grand march, which began hortly before 10 o’clock, was participated in by five hundred couples, and the cos- tumes of the ladies, contrasting with the elaborate decorations of the hall, created a brilliant and memorable scene. When the special features which had been arranged for the occasion were con- cluded the' distribution of prizes and trophies {ncidental to the fair took place. L. W. Buckley, who has contributed so largely to the success of the fair by his personal effort and ability, made the awards in behalf of the executive com- mittee. These are as follows: Spectal prize, loving cup to the first soclety booth ready and also making the largest re- turns—St. Patrick’s Mutual Alllance, Mrs. Goodell, chairman.

Body of an Unknown Washed Ashore at Mare Island. VALLEJO, Sept. 13.—The body of an unknown man was found on the western shore of Mare Island this morning. It had been in the water for some time. Deceased was & man about 60 years of age. He was neatly dressed. The appear- ance of the body gave grounds for a sus- picion of foul play. An numgsy showed there had been hemorrhage of the brain, and a bruise on the temple seemed to jus- tify the theory of murder. There was nothing by whicn to identify the man, and the body was so badly decomposed that it must be interred at once. Coroner Trull will delay the inquest till to-mor- row, to see if anything further can be learned. MODJESKA IN “MAGDA” Modjeska gave “Magda” at the Bald- win last night to a not overcrowded audience, but one that was conspicu- ously made up of dramatic epicureans —the folk who have made a specialty of staying away from the theater this last couple of years. And it was a fine night for the dramatic epicurean. The play, the actress, were of the qual- ity in which his superior soul could revel. “Magda” is not everybody’'s play. It does not deal in the pretty sentiments and herolcs of the hand-me-down dra- matist. It has no flaming love inter- est, no intrigue, no stout speeches. The romance, such as it was, is' over and buried long before the play commences; leaving only the final struggle of after years and the consequences. “Magda’” is a tragi-comedy of the household, too impartial for satire and too abso- lute for a “problem,” in the cant sense. It is as true and as terrible a picture of every-day life as has ever been drawn, with all of life’s prejudices and creeds and ideals battling one against the other. We chafe and stifle with Magda when she returns from her free Bohe- mian world to the old home and feels the old chains narrow around her again. We pity, even Jjustify the proud, bigoted father who says: ‘Look at this home! There is no luxury— hardly even what you call good taste; and yet, when you see the beams of the western sun pour through the white curtains and lie with such lov- ing touch on the old room, does not gomething say to you, ‘Here dwells true happiness? ” We sympathize with him even to understanding why he would rather have had Magda come in rags and tears. And yet Magda has but to say: “Filial love? Why, I would like to take that dear white head on my lap and say, xou darling over- grown baby you!’” and a more domi- nant ego grips our sympathy. The Rector feels a something pent and un- satisfled In his placid life and Magda urges him on with “To be greater than our sins is worth all the purity you preach.” And the egotism of Von Kel- lar, the lover of her youth, how sickly green it turns in the glare of her scorn! She is a wonderful woman, this pol- ished vulgarian Magda, with a philos- ophy and an animal power that are tre- mendous. The softening influences cof the rector oniy accentuate her strength. She lays aside the rapier of worldliness toward the last and fights for her child with the beautiful savagery of the mother. Even to the very pride-broken death of her father she conquers, and vou feel a sort of justice in it all—and still there is neither glory nor content, nothing but bitterness in the victory. I doubt if Modjeska herself knew the extent of her versatility before she un- | dertook to play this part. In it she First | M. Bernheim; | frees herself of all the picturesque and elocutionary blandishments of the classic poetic drama and makes herself one in every sense with the relentless | modernity of the character. She does | not bring out the big brutal note which is always ready to be sounded in a dif- ferent intervretation; but, rather, she makes the woman a creature of deli- cate ironies and indomitable will—her father's own child broadened and hard- ened by the newer world and the vic- tories of genius. When Modjeska plays as she did last night, with such nerv- ous power and truth and security, there is no need to reproach her with the triumph of the yesterdays. Of the supporting cast, the women were especlally good, Miss Grace Fisher playing Marie with delightful ingenu- ousness, Miss Anna Daly doing a bit of master work as the maid, and Mrs. | Hanna E. Sargent not overdrawing the comic relation. But of the men, Mr, Lonergan alone distinguished himself, in the part of Von Kellar this time, which he played with consistent un- derstanding. Mr. Lane was stilted and completely out of the atmosphere as the father, and Mr. Herman ~layed the Rector as he might have played Marc Antony. ASHTON STEVENS. “La Traviata.” “La Traviata” was given an excellent performance at the Tivoli last night. Miss Lichter was especially successful as the consumptive heroine, and Wil- llam Pruette did admirably with Ger- mant. The audience was hardly as large as usual, but tremendously en- thusiastic. “Traviata” will be repeated on Thursday and Bunday evenings and at the Saturday matinee, alternating with “Carmen.” P GOLDEN GATE VISITED. The San Francisco Cabinet Calls on a Council of the National Union. There was a large gathering last night in the hall of Golden Gate Council of the National Unfon on the occasion of the official visit of the members of the San Francisco cabinet. After the rou- tine business was disposed of three candi- dates were inducted into the mysteries of the order, and then followed a programme of entertainment arranged for the enjoy- ment of the members and the large num- ber of friends who responded to the in- vitations extended. There was a vocal se- lection by the National Union Quartet, cornet solo by Mr. Todd; an address by . H. Hastings, president of the cabinet; imitations of John McCullough, Svengall, Edwin Booth, Tom Keene and others by J. Hamlin, whose renditions were excel- lent and won muech applause; ‘“‘Annie Laurie” by the quartet; patriotic address by C. J. King, secretary of California Councll; instrumental myusic and dresses by J. E. Field, who recently re- turned from the Senate of the order, and others. There was served a collation and cigars, and a very pleasant fraternal evening was spent. ————— OAKLAND TAX LEVY. The Council Meets in Secret to Cut Down Estimates. OAKLAND, Sept. 13.— The City Council held a secret meeting this evening for the purpose of fixing the tax levy, but after a long session little progress was made. The members were anxious to use their prun- ing knives where no heads of departments could bother them with pleas and argu- ments, 8o they met by appointment in the Macdonough Theater block. They did not fare much better, however, and are about as far as ever from reaching an agree- ment. There was a warm discussion regfirdlng the $%,000 for dredl(ziing Lake Merritt, an Messrs. Girard an uvellier wanted to induce the others to spread this amount over two years. This was opposed and heavy cuts were proposed in other direc- tions, but the arguments were unproduc- tive of an reement. When the meeting adjourned there was still about $66,000 to be shaved off the estimates to keep the lavi' at $1 37, which is the legal limit, and which is 24 cents higher than last year. Recreation Club Billiards. ALAMEDA, S(e:gl. 13.—Last evenin the Recreation Club rooms, G. N. er and E. A. Mudgett played the third and deciding game in the match between them which grew out of the recent club tourna- ment. %Ea.ch had won one game, and con- sequently the deciding game of last even- ing was very interesting and drew a large crowd. There was no handicap, the men being regarded as evenly matched. After some very good 8!:1} n{ r. Mudgett won, having scored 140 points to 129 for Mr. Ty- ler. After this game was ended Mr. Mudgett and Dr. Key began a series of three games, the first of which resulted in a vic- fory for Key by a score of 140 to 135 for Mudgett. The second game of this series Will be played next Thursday evening. Articles of Incorporation. OAKLAND, Sept. 13.—Articles of incor- at oration were filed with County Clerk ordan to-day by the Golden Trout Min- ing Company, with principal place of busi- ness in Oakland.

P. ‘A, ticket at the last election, on the charge of obtaining mon- | ey by false pretenses. Stearns on July | 1 got an accommodation check for $20 from C. W. Moulthrop on the under- standing that he was not to cash it. The check was on the Crocker-Woolworth Bank, and Stearns got Owen to cash it. When Owen presented it at the bank he was informed that Moulthrop had no ac- count there. ————————— Charged With Murder. Mrs. Dora Fuhrig, midwife, on Howard street, surrendered herself to the police esterday and was booked at the City Piison on a charge of murder. She is accused of causing the death of Mrs. Anna Eggerson, wife of a restaurant iceeper on Fourth street. The woman diea at the McNutt hospital, and before her | death made a statement implicating Mrs. Fuhrig, who has another charge of mur- der pending against her in Judge Mogan's court in connection with the death of a woman at Baden. —_—ee————— Royal Arch Masons.
