He vigorously opposed the adoption of the resolution because he believed it to \lfi )llnm'm;;w:.m and contrary to the ple. We are her the representatives of anti-boss ruj he said. ‘‘Are we g0Ing to constitute ourselves bosses? I understand that this thing has been programmed for more than a week and that candidates have been making their fights accordingly. I am opposed to this sort of thing, and I trust the mem- bers of this committee will not commit such a grievous error as would be the case if this proposition is adopted.” Barney McKinne declared that the proposition was a good one, and it was the only thing to be done, as it would be dangerous to attempt to select dele- gates to a_convention because the dele- gates might be captured by the bosses. Francis J. Heney wanted to know if the members of the committee of one hundred were the only honest Dem- ocrats in the city. Mr. Heney scored the committee for its corrupt methods and was just beginning to get warmed up to his subject when the nod was given to the chairman, who at once declared that the five minutes allotted to a speaker had expired. Heney asked to be allowed to pro- ceed, but youthful Mr. Park of Susan- of boss | not inciuded in | were | fill vacgncies were handed out | y | soclety organization. , | ford of Oakland ville objected. A vote was taken on a motion to allow Heney more time, but although the “ayes” were in the ma- jority the chairman ruled that the mo- tion had been lost. Several members volunteered to give Heney their time, but the chair ruled that this could not be done. The chair's ruling on this point was sustained by youthful Mr. Park. The following named members of the committee resigned as members of the convention because they are candidates for office: R. P. Doolan, A. B. Maguire, James Denman, John H. Grady, T. J. Pinder, Franklin K. Lane, M. Green- blatt and Finlay Cook. J. B. Reinstein, Barry Baldwin and John McGllvray being out of the State, their places in the convention were de- clared vacant. On motion it was agreed not to allow the use of proxies in the convention. Following are the names of the men appointed to flll the vacancies in the membership of the convention: Goldaracena, August Tillman, John L. Moore, John F. Burns, James Camp- bell, L. H. Ward, Livingston Jink James Hart, H. A. Conrad, Walter E. Doran and Edward Lunney. The scenes attending the filling of these va- cancies have been already alluded to. The co ittee of one hundred will meet at 7:45 o'clock Monday evening, and fifteen minutes later it will resolve itself into a nominating convention. OTTS WINS OUT IN A RATTLING BATTLE. HE AND DENNIS PUT UP EIGHT HARD-FOUGHT ROUNDS. Paddy Maloney Forfeited Half His Prize Money, so Tommy Burke “Lay” Down—XKennedy Made Some Speeches. Manager Jim Kennedy of the Excelsior Athletic Club was very much in evidence last night at the club’s monthly ‘“ama- | teur”” boxing bout held in Teutonia Hall. |In fact, the versatile James was the | whole “‘work: as one ring-goer tersely | put it. His speeches were gems in thelr way and did much to mollify the few hundred sports who waited two weary hours for two ‘“‘amateurs’” to arrange their grievances. | As a dispute had arisen over a question of welght between Paddy Maloney and | Tommy Burke, who had signed to fight at 125 pounds, the event of the evening was put on first to reconcile the howling crowd. “Bllly” Otts of the Excelsior Athletic Club and Jack Denpis of the Olympic Club were introduced as the bright par- ticular stars of the evening. Referee Mc- Devitt gent the two men together a little before ten and the long wait was for- gotten in the lively battie that followed. Otts weighed 132 and Dennis 130%. The former p ssed superior science gressiveness and grit and these p gained him a decision at the end of rounds of hard fighting. 1 awkward and less of a ring general, but he dealt his rival blows that might have ended the chances of a less plucky boy. In the first wo rounds it looked easily Otts’ fight, as in_the exchanges he land- ed often and hard. The third round found Dennis greatly improved. He went after Otts, and received some stingers in re- turn for the blows he landed. ‘Lne blood flowing from h! re mouth impelled him to greater efforts. Quickly turning on his merciless rival he dealt him a left swing on the jaw, completely staggering him, Otts was at sea for the moment, and but for the eagerness of Dennis he would have been out. He rallied quickly and re- turned to the fray with vigor. Both boys took a severe beating in the rounds that followed, and the howling spectators were puzzled to pick the win- ner. In the seventh round Dennls set such a hot pace that his efforts left him | MmOTe than a study; they are a score of weak and exhausted. Although Otts was the fresher and stronger of the two his | blows seemed to have lost their steam, | and he could not deliver the coup de | grace. The eighth round found the two young- | sters ready for more gruelling. ~ After shaking hands, Otts set the pace, but re- ceived many reminders that Dennis was | there by the swings he received in the | stomach and on the jaw. Both were so | interested in giving each other punish- ment that the sounding of the gong was | unheard, and Sergeant Brophy motioned | them to stop. Otts was given the dec sion, which was greeted with vells of de- light by his_club mates. Dennis put up such a good fight that many favoreu a draw. Paddy Maloney, a r:xp[! of Jimmy An- thony, who was guilty of being over welght, and Tommy Burke, who declined to fight unless his rival forfeited half the purse pe reement, then entered the Ting. w fnuch is he over weight?"” velled a spodt. Af a pound.” replied Jimmy Anthony, and the trouble began Burke aroused laughter by his funny antics. His leads and foot work were something new, and when at the end of the round Maloney “got on” he pummeled | his man even after the gong sounded. In the middle of the second round Burke dropped in a rally and squirmed as if he had been struck over the heart. He was counted out, but the initlated say he “lay” down, as he was entitled to “’af” | the” purse. Sergeant Brophy and squad kept excel | lent order during the evening’s entertain- ment. —_—— “OTHELLC” AT THE CALIFORNIA Benefit for Mrs. Hilderbrand ; Under the Auspices of the | Tennessee Regiment. i | The members of the Tennessee Regl- ment, deeply sympathizing with the widow of Henry Hilderbrand, wio was killed by ene o7 their fellow =oldiars, have determined to give substantial proof of their feelings so far as they are abie by “{presenting to Mrs. Hilderbrand the entire proceeds of a benefit entertal imen: which as been arranged for the evening of the 30th of this month at the California Tlea- ter.. It is proposed to produce the play of Othello,” under tne auspices of the regi- ment, and the commictee has secured for | this purpose the services of the Dudley Stanhope stock company, a well known Miss Eleanor San- will_on this occasfon | make her debut as Desdemona. She | has appeared in many amateur perform- | ances and has given convineine evidence that she possesses considerable histrionic alent. —_— e ALEXANDER G. BELL OF TELE- PHONE FAME ARRIVES. Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone, arrived last night on the Central overland, accompanied by his wife and daughters. He will leave this city to-day on the Coptic for a short trip to Japan, returning here in about two months. " “I have not given the telephone much attention of late,” he said last night, “‘for 1 have not been connected with any tele- phone companies during the last fifteen years. Aerial navigation and its multi- tudinous problems have absorbed my time to the exclusion of all other scien- tific questions. I am now preparing a series of papers on the subject of aerial locomotion for the Natlonal Academy of Science. They will be published soon after mv return to this country. Aerial navi- gation Is coming; it is almost here. I was a witness of the first practical aerial tessl made—that of Professor Langley with his aerodrome propelled by steam, and we may soon expect great strides in this line of invention. "'A subject of deep interest to me Is the teaching of the deaf to speak and to read from the motion of the lips. California is backward in this respect, as this new and much approved method is not in use in the schools for the deaf in this State.” —_— Special Musical Services. At the Church of the Advent, Eleventh street, near Market, there will be a spe- oial musical service next Sunday even- ing, commencing at 7:45 o'clock. The service will be rendered by the full vested choir of fifty men and boys, with full or- gan uccomPanlment, and among numbers of special interest will be the “Cathedral Psalter,” chanted antiphonially, several appropriate anthems and a benediction in the form of a cross before :‘gem :lt:‘:‘ 'he public is Invited.

CONVENTION NEXT MONDAY LEGISLATIVE TICKET NOW AL- { MOST COMPLETE. | Every Ward and Township Offers a Puzzle That the Slickest Are Unable to Solve. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Sept. 15. There is a slate ready for the county | convention which meets at San Leandro | | next Monday. | There are two slates—three slates—half | |a dozen slates. And as many political | cliques in the county are putting in the | twenty-four hours prior to to-morrow's primary by smashing them into splin- ters. | _To-night the different sections of the | Republican family are busy making up | | tickets to place before the voters at the | | primaries to-morrow. These tickets are | FRANK LEAVITT FEELS LIKE DANUNG studles. In every a puzzle exist: be lucky are ra ward and township and the men who would king their brains to try to discover the solution. There 1s _a | good deal of trickery being done. ~ Not | viclous trickery, of course; but that good natured practice of trying to sub- vert each other's place that is so char- acteristic of Alameda County. The man- agers and candidates are passing each other on Broadway with one eye on elther side of the street. There seems to be a unity of desire to put about four men on the ticket, but these . everything is chaos. These men are Frahk Jordan for County | Clerk, Charles Spear for Recorder, Henry Dalton for Assessor, and, of necessity, | Geo. L. Nusbaumer for County Surveyor. | Then the ways part. One faction would Itke to place Tom Robinson in the Tax Collector’s office, Assemblyman Clark in | the Public Administrator's office, Arthur | Fetdler In the Treasurer's office; | others would like to see James | keep his_position, would prefer Lynch of Washin H W ton Township for Su- perintendent of Schools and Osear Rggsn'r'm or Sheriff. Outside of these, all kinds of combinations. S ldre It is very evident that the lawyers an- | ticipate a large amount of work during the next four years from the Public Ade FAVORITE PASTIME OF OAKLAND POMTICIANS. ministrator's office. In this scattered county the attorney does better than the official in this office, and there is always a scramble for the pie. Clarence Cro- well, Fred E. Whitney, Guy C. Earl, Abe P. Leach, George de Golia and Hugh Al- drich, all well-known attorneys, are try- lnfi to straighten out this tangle to their individual satisfaction, but not until the roll is called in the convention can any one cry “cinch!” Interested individuals—mostly suffering from sore heads—are attempting to create the impression that there will be a com- plete independent ticket that will draw 80 heavily from the Republican vote inat good Democrats will have a fighting chance. There is no reason to belleve that such a condition exists. It is true that Justice Clift, A. K. Grim and Charles E. Snook have withdrawn from t.e fights in which they started; but they only withdrew because they saw they were hopelessly beaten, and Alameda County has never made a reputation for following after losers. Mr. Grim, it is said, will run as an independent candidate against the Republican nominee. Mr. Grim is an un- known quantity in politics, and there is no reason to believe he will prove a cy- clone. Ex-Chief of Police Schaffer has stated that he will run as an independent ..e- ublican for Sheriff. He boasts of a peti- {‘lon having 1200 names on 1t; but even if %elmonu in Oakland do not count for much. Mr. Schaffer says he disap- prm;!esmot the manner in which primaries are held. These incidents, however, will not cut much figure at to-morrow's primary, less at Monday's convention and none at all on election day. 2 | much thering his campaign was $1 50 for a hand- ful of cards setting forth his aspirations, and every time the Judge spoke he passed one out with the modest remark, “lsn't that a great face for a Judge?” County Surveyor Nusbaumer was found this afterncon with tears in his eyes. When primaries come around George Is never “in it.” He considers it a great shame that no one considers him worthy of one's steel, and consequently he never has to.fight. George resents this slight, but during the hot hours of to-day he largely consoled himself with the sight of the anxious, restless horde of candidates who had competitors and who would like | to change conditions with him—slight, neglect and all. Another of the men who feels like do- ing a dance and who feels little anxlety regarding the result of to-morrow’s pri- maries Is Assemblyman Leavitt. Frank is a political whirlwind., and when he started in on the Sixth Ward to make a campaign for Senator he simply swept around the bay shore, scooped up every- thing in sight and landed in Berkeley a | winner before his what he was doing. The following will competitors realized rnbtfl)ly be the legis- lative nominees of Monday’s convention: Twenty-sixth Senatorial District, Frank M. Leavitt; Twenty-eighth Senatorial District, E. K. Taylor of Alameda; Forty- District, William Mc- eventh Assembly District, Forty-eighth, Joseph | 3 y-ninth, A."A. McKeen; Fif- tieth, J. A. Bliss; Fifty-first, Howard E. | ‘Wright. In order to prevent any renetition of the scandal over registration certificates that | followed the Congressional primary, in- structions have been issued by the Coun- ty Central Committee stating that no cer- tificates of registration will be received by the officers of election unless it be dated September 13 or later, and has upon it the personal seal of the County Clerk in addition to the official seal. The Good Government Club of the For- ty-efghth Assembly District has indorsed Joseph Harris for legislative candidate. The tickets which have been made up in the Seventh Ward show that there is differenceof opinfon in the east end of town. The Jordan-Melvin ticket contains the names, among others, of A. A. Moore, J. W. Evans, James A. John- son, John Yule, H. S. Pugh and Robert A. 'Jackson. The Leckie-Webster com- bine has for some of its delegates C. W. Wilkins, L. M. Cobbledick, J. A. Crist, A. J. Reid, 1. I. Boak, H Colby and W. S. Dolbier. In the First Ward and in Berkeley there will probably be but one ticket, but at nearly all other places, with the exception of the Fifth, tnere will probably be two or more. The polls open at noon to-morrow and close at 8§ p. m. The test will be: “T will support the nom- inees of the Republican party at the elec- tion to be held on November 8, 1898, and have not voted at any other primary elec- élon or at any other time or place this e MEXICO’S NATAL DAY FITTINGLY CELEBRATED. LITERARY EXERCISES AND BALLS VWELL ATTENDED. 0dd Fellows’ Hall and Union-Square Hall Crowded With Happy Native Residents. Mexican residents throughout this city and vicinity celebrated the eighty-eighth anniversary of Mexico's independence last evening in a befitting manner. At Odd Fellows' Hall A. K. Coney, the | local Mexican Consul, presided over a joy- ous gathering of residents who owe their allegiance to the neighboring country. Patriogic Americans who were In sym- athy/ with the celebration were present n_large numbers. The hall was beautifully decorated with ' American and Mexican flags and festoons, and the pictures of the heroes who fought for the liberation of Mexico were con- spicuously placed about the hall. The literary exercises were keenly ap- preciated by those present, and the ad- dresses delivered in Spanish and English were ed enthusfastically by the p: triotlc Mexicans. The success of the celebration was due to the efforts of the following officers and their assistants: Honorary _president Consul General of Mexico A. K. Coney, President A. Tejeda, Vice President C. T. Mersich, Secretary A. de la Torre, Finan- cial Secretary A. Guiterrez and Treasurer V. D. Medina. A similar celebration was held in Union Square Hall by the Societr of Mexican Ladies and was largely attended. Lit- erary exercises and dancing were en- joyed by those present e Foresters’ Helping Hand. The social that was given last evening in Alcazar Social Hall in ald of the For- esters and Companions of -the Relief Association was well attended and it will net a neat sum for the fund of the committee. This money will be used in_the procuring of delicacies for the sick soldiers who are now at Camp Merrfam. During the past week the ladies of the committee attended-to the wants of more than fifty sold a day in the sick wards, in addition to furnishing tea and soups 'to convalescents who called at the committee's tent — A Bloomer @irl in Trouble. Netttle Willlams, who was a waitress in the “bloomer restaurant” started by Captain Emlay a few years ago, was ar- rested yesterday and charged with va- grancy by Mrs. Emaly, who alleges that her husband has left hér and is now pro- viding handsomely for Miss Williams in a flat_on Sixteenth street. She thinks that if her rival is sent to fail for six months on the vagrancy charge her hus- band will return to her. e Young Black Withdraws. William Black, who recently filed an ap- plication for special letters of administra- tion on the estate of his uncle, Thomas Carter, the millionaire car builder of New- ark, withdrew the same vesterday in open court. Young Black, when the will was offered for probate, found that he was not mentioned as one of the beneficiaries. Tt is stated that he will file a contest in the near future. ——e— Justly Punished. Frank H. Alton, janitor of the Natfonal Guard Armory on Ellis street, was yester- day fined $00 with the alternative of six months in the County Jail by Judge Con- lan for being guilty of immoral conduct. Herbert Wilson, a contractor, was con- victed for the 'same offense 'in Golden Gate Park, and was ordered to appear for sentence this morning. —_——————— Supplies for Manila. The chartered stea~-- Condor will probably sail this afternoon for Manila with about 4500 tons of supplies for the American troops. The cargo consists of subsistence _stores, clothing, boots and shoes and drugs. 2 Forest | W. H, L BARNES WILL REPLY T0 MAGUIRE At Metropolitan Tem~ ple To-Night. |HORACE DAVIS TO PRESIDE | l SEATS TO BE RESERVED FOR | LADIES AND THEIR ESCORTS. | et | General Barnes Will Not Attack Ma- guire Personally, but Will Ven- tilate the Sophistries of Sin- Tax and Socialism. i The first meeting of the campaign un- der the auspices of the Republican State | Central Committee will take place at| Metropolitan Temple t Hon. Horace Davis will pr W. H. L. Barnes address the audience. The California quartet will sing patriotic songs. Seats will be reserved for ladies and their escorts. The Indications are that the vast hall will be packed to over- flowing, as General Barnes i{s an orator | of fine attainments and a speaker of great popularity. He was asked last | evening if he intended to pay his respects | to Judge Maguire, the fusion candidate for Governor. The general replied: “I shall reply to his utterances on soclalism, the referendum and the single tax. I shall not attack Judge Maguire personally, but will show where he stands and what kind of doctrines he | advocates. I shall not mince words in at- | tacking the principles which he repre- | sents in this campaign.” | The meeting to-night will be different | in many respects from that of the fusion | gathering at Metropolitan Temple night | before last when Maguire talked for three | | hours on the defensive and sought by all | | sorts of sophistry to explain his peculiar notions_concerning single tax and social- | ism. The Republican speakers will be | interesting and instructive from the start | to the finish. General Barnes never | wearies or disappoints an audience, and there is reason to expect that his speech to-night will equal the best of his for-| mer achievements on the platform. As he | | is to speak in a cause which requires no | | defense time will not be consumed in | apologles and explanations. The earnest | | spirif_with which the Republicans enter the campaign will be exemplified in the | declarations of the eloquent speaker to- night. { §aturday evening, September 24, Hon. | M. M. Estee will address the people at | Metropolitan Temple. To-night at Anaheim, Orange County, | 3.” C. Needham, Repubiican nominee for | Congress in the Seventh District, and | Major C. W. Kyle of San Francisco will| | address a_multifude of people. The meet- ng promises to be one of the most in-| | teresting and important ever held in| | Southern California. Major Kyle left the | city for Anaheim yesterday afternoon. J. A. Barham, Republican nominee for | Congress in ‘the First District, is in the field. is meetings are largely attended. | Frank D. Ryan, Republican nominee for Congress in the Second District, will be- in his campaign tour ne: week. His filstrh‘t embraces considerable mountain territory, and it is acknowledged that his | opponent is an active campaigner, but| \‘[n Ryan is confident that the Repub- icans ‘will gain a Congressman in this district. | The Republican State Central Commit- tee is planning the tour for Henry T. Gage, the nominee for Governor. The standard bearer will probably take the fleld the latter part of next week. Among the callers at Republican head- quarters yvesterday was L. V. Hitchcock, chairman_of the Republican Committee of Sonoma County. A. B. 3. Lemmon of Santa Rosa was also a visitor at headquarters. W. R. Guy of San Diego_paid his re- s to Major Frank McLaughlin and s of the executive committee yester- | ¢ Mr. Guy served as chairman of the | | W and Means Committee of the As-| sembly at the last session of the Legis- lature and kept a watchful eve on the| | expenditures of the commonwealth. He brings encouraging predictions of Repub- lican gains in_Southern California, but | counsels that Republicans in every coun- | ty of the State should be urged to active work. GENERAL MILLER BANQUETED. The Seventh California Gives a The- ater Party and a Supper. General Miller was the guest of honor Thursday at a theater party glven by the officers of the Seventh California. About forty officers from that regiment, the Tennessee and the regiment of artillery stationed at the camp, gathered in the parlors of the Baldwin Hotel shortly be- | fore 8 o'clock. The general appeared | some few minutes later and was given an ovation. The party then left the hotel in a body and for the rest of the early part of the evening they followed out the checkered career of Mary Stuart as in- terpreted by Mme. Modjeska. A supper, served in the Baldwin dining room, was | a fitting finale to the evening’s entertain- ment. —_——————— To Plead for Bernal Park. At a meeting of the Precita Valley Im- provement Club last night a committes of five, consisting of J. B. Vizzard, J. E. O'Brien, Stephen Byrnes, Henry Young | and Jobn T. Graham, were appointed to walt on_the Supervisors at the meeting on Monday next and urge an appropria- tion sufficient to improve Bernal Park, a small piece of land of oblon%shape lying between Army street and Precita ave- nue. &nlll recently it was the bed of Islais eek. ——— “No One to Blame.” A verdict of “accidental death—no one to blame,” was rendered by the Coroner's jury yesterday morning in the case of -year-old George Tepper, who was killed last Wednesday by being run over by a freight train at the intersection of Chan- nel and Bryant streets.
