PACIFIC GROVE, Sept. 17.—The forty- cabinet relative to ministerial appoint- | ments by presiding elders, and other ex- traneous business occupied the afternoon. | At 5 p. m. the second social event of this conference occurred. The alumni as- sociation of the University of the Pacific held a reunion and banquet in the large parlors of the M. E. church, at which the Bishop and ministers of the con- ference and their wives were the guests of honor. The parlors were elegantly dec- orated with flowers and the guests were in gala attire. A. J. Hanson, president of the association, acted as master of ceremonies and announced each of the toasts during the banquet. Covers were laid for 127 ‘guests, among whom were the most distinguished Methodist’ clergy | and most prominent professional and | business men on the Pacific Coast, as well | as ladies of social and educational note. ‘ The toasts presented and those re- sponded to were: “Our University,” Dr. Elf McClish, president of the University | of the Pacific, and Bishop John F.

Rev. C. H. Payne, D.D., one of the distinguished heads of the Metho- dist educational movement in America, delivered an address, taking ‘“‘Christian Education” as his theme.

SAN JOSE, Sept. 17.—“Jim” Rea has given the City Board of Education or- ders to keep the High School running along in its extravagant way at any cost. In order to do this an attempt will be made to use money from the county school fund. The School Trustees held an informal meeting to-night and expressed a wish in the u let more important charges. The ual “turn and turn about” will doubt- prevail in the minor charges, but Dr. F.

Dr. John Coyle spoke at some length upon the course he took yesterday in vot- ing against equal lay and ministerial rep- resentation in General Conference, and asked that, in view of the wish that the vote of the conference be unanimous on s important question, he be allowed to hange his vote to the affirmative.

Snowden, Moses 8. Cross, Walter Merritt, Fay Donaldson, Edward Mackay, Lee Tong Hay and H. E. Milnes were, on motion of their respec- tive presiding elders, elected deacons. Of these Snowden, Mackay, Donaldson and Lee Tong Hay will be ordained by Bishop Hurst to-morrow. Candidates for recognition of orders presented their certificates of standing in other churches, and on motion were ac- corded proper recognition. They were Rey. C. M. Golder from the Methodist Episcopal Church South, and Rev. Syl- vester Clark from the Methodist Protest- ant church. At 10:30 the delegates from the lay association, consisting of Justus Greeley, Mrs. J. H. Glide, Mrs. M. E. Herrold, Wil- liam Abbott and T. B. Hutchinson, were received by the conference. The delega- tion tbtrought greetings from the Cali- fornia laity to the conference, gratitude for yesterday's action on the part of the conference in voting for equal lay rep- resentation In the General Conference, and assurances of hearty co-operation in all branches of Methodist work. Messrs. Abbott, Hutchinson and Gree- ley spoke In behalf of the laymen, and {shop Hurst responded for the confer- ence. He spoke emphatically of the value of lay work to Methosism. and stated that on them should be placed the credit largely for the great stability of Methodism. He said that the clergy of this church had frequently had attacks of various kinds of heresies, as children are attacked by measles and other juve- nile diseasc®, but that heresy had rarel; attacked the laity, and that the K‘.hurcf‘lv can depend on the laymen to stand true to its doctrines. He closed with a gen- eral view of the wider responsibility, na- tional responsibility, that has lately been thrown on the Christian people of Cali- fornia by the opening to them of Hawali and the Philippines, and admonishing them to meet it fitly. At the conclusion of this Dr. John Thompson of California, secretary of the American Bible Soclety, gave a brief talk on his work, and was followed by Dr. Bentley, who presented a resolution of appreciation of Dr. Thompson's forty years’ of efficient work In the Bible eause. Dr. Beard next presented a resolution of considerable significance, requesting Bishop Hurst to constitute a new district of this conference embracing the Ha- waifan Islan which was adopted. Bishop Hurst then called the candi- dates for deacon’s orders, and after ask- ing them the re%ulsllo disciplinary ques- tions, admonished them with great prac- tical as well as Christian wisdom on the high responsibility they are about to take upon themselves. ‘There is need,” he said, “of the stiffening up of the vertebral column of the church in every branch, and one way to accomplish this is by strong denominational loyalty. A young man entering the ministry should learn to be a good pastor and a good preacher, for these two characteristics are the two wings that bear up the eagle in hi heavenward flight. At the close of this i Rev.

Of late years the California State Board | of Trade, which originally devoted its ef- forts almost exclusively to promoting im- | migration to California, is extending its work on lines calculated to increase the market for California products. This or- ganization realizes that by increasing the demand for California products and thus promoting the welfare of the producers, | the work of inducing additional immigra- | tion togenter the fieid of production and | continue the development of our resources will be easier. Outside of its exposition work, which has been carried on for the double purpose of securing trade in the State’s products, the board is reaching out | into new flelds and exploring them with a view of ascertaining the conditions for the sale of Californ 8 roductions. Some explorations in this line have rece ly been made in South America, through the agency of the Philadelphia Commer- | clal Muséum, of which the California State Board of Trade is an_afllli member, and the museum reports back to | the State Board of Trade that “on an In- | vestigation as to the probability of a mar- ket for California wines in the more pop- ulous sections of Brazil, it has arrived at the ‘conclusion that if these wines were properly pushed they might find a very satisfactory sale in such places as Para, Pernambuco, Bahia, and even in Rio de Janeiro, though in the latter city the large Fmpomon of European population might be the reason of the less degree of favor. The Figera wines of Portugal are very popular in the regions mentioned. It {s understood that they very much resemble the California wines and that no change in the people’s tastes would, therefore, be necessary in introducing the latter.” The Philadelphia Museum sends this in- formation, and the State Board of Trade gives it out for the benefit of the wine growers of California. The museum, at the same time, says it will be pleased to follow up its investigations and efforts in | any practical way on receipt of inquiries, by accompanying names of shipping firm: merchants, importers and possible con- sumers. It is further stated that the Hon. Charles Page Bryan, the American Min- ister to Brazil, confirms this opinion re- gardlnf the introduction of California n wines {n that country. —_————— Lurlinc Salt Water Baths, Bush and Larkin sts.

Exception Taken to an As- sertion Made by David Starr Jordan. “David Starr Jordan is considerably off in his figures when he asserts that more soldiers have died in San Francisco than were killed during the entire war,” said a military officer yesterday. ‘“Less than 100 have died here, while in one battle alone, that of San Juan Hill, in Cuba, there were a great many more than 100 men killed. The other side of this sick- ness question has not veen told. There were men handled in San Fran- cisco, and there have been only four deaths to a thousand, and the greatcst number occurred among the volunteers who were inexperienced men, many of whom did not know how to take care of themselves, and some who did know £'m- ply wouldn't care for themselves. Com aratively very little sickness and but ew deaths occurred among the reguiars, I see that Maguire is making political capital out of the alleged mismanag: ment of the volunteers, when the fact is they were well provided for, and had they heeded the advice that was given them time and time again there would not have been the least occasion for this ncwl oa the part of political demagogues and misinformed persons. Among thz latter take, for instance, Governor Lord of Ore- gon, who had been misled by some crank of, a woman into believing that the Ore- on_recruits were {ll treated. Governor rd came here and investigated the mat- ter and found exactly the contrary to te the case. 1 suggest that David Starr Jordan likewise make a personal investi- gation before he gives San Francisco un- other black eye. course it 1s no use to expect the truth about this matter from any politician or office-seeker so long as he can make capital out of misstate- ments.” —_—— Advances made on furniture and planos, with Committee meetings, deliberations of or without removal.

The High Schocl fund contains only $11,425, which is just a little over half enough for the coming year. Now the Trustees propose to take about $8000 from the grammar schools to bolster up the High School, which the gang has al- most ruined. This last amount will be necessary in order to move the school into the new building. A reduction will have to be :ade all through the School Department, and it is proposed to cut the salaries of the principals of gram- mar schools $200 per year. The High School has been going from bad to worse through the work of the Trustees, and now these worthies pro- pose to cripple the grammar schools. In using county fund moeney for the High School the Trustees are attempt- ing to do just what Rea sought to keep the Trustees of the Santa Clara High School from doing by injunction. Santa Clara wanted the money to provide ac- commodaticns for the striki: pupils from this city.

SOLEMN SERVICES ARE HELD REMAINS OF THE SLAIN EM- PRESS PLACED IN A VAULT. Vienna Is in Mourning and the People of Every Land Join in Expressions of Sympathy. Special Dispatch to The Call. VIENNA, Sept. 17.—Emperor Francis Joseph at 9 o'clock this morning re- ceived the special representatives of | foreign sovereig An hour later he | received the visiting sovereigns, with | the exception of the King of Saxony, | whom he personally greeted at the rafl- road station. The inhabitants of this city streamed to the chapel of the Hofburg and de- filed before the casket containing the remains of the late Empress. Em- peror Francis Joseph, Prince Hohen- lohe, the German Imperial Chancellor, and Baron von Bulow, the German Minister for Foreign Affairs, received Emperor Willlam at the railroad.sta- tion. The Emperors shook hands and kissed each other’s cheeks three times. Then they proceeded back .to the church, where Emperor William, in be- half of himself and the Empress of Germany, deposited on the casket con- taining the remains of the late Em- press of Austria a floral wreath which his Majesty had brought from Ger- many. The Emperor dined at the Ger- man Embassy after the funeral and started for Berlin this evening. The aspect of this city to-day was more somber than upon any day of the week of mourning. Hardly a house was without black draperies, and the entire populace seemed to have poured out into the streets. Every train brought hundreds of people from the country, and all, even the persons be- longing to the lower classes, were in mourning. The street lamps were all alight, shining dimly through coverings of crepe. Great torches threw glaring flames over the royal chapel, in which the re- mains of the late Empress have lain in state since yesterday morning. The doors of the chapel were closed at noon, thus barring out thousands of people who were anxious to see the casket. At 4 o’clock the tolling of bells an- nounced the starting of the procession. The route from the Hofburg to the in- significant church of the Capuchins, whose vaults entomb the Hapsburgs, is so short that only a small propor- tion of the population”was able to crowd into the adjoining streets. While the procession was being | formed the church was filled with the foreign Princes, who arrived without ostentation in closed carriages and | were condueted to the front pews. Out- | side the church a company of distin- | guished generals and staff officers was | aligned. A detachment of cavalry led | the procession, followed by a single | horseman, a court officer, attired in a | Spanish costume. Then came carriages | drawn by six horses covered with fu- neral trappings, escorted-by footmen. | They contained the court dignitaries | and ladies in waiting. A train of servants followed, walking i two abreast, and then came the most | imposing feature of the procession. Several companies of the foot guards, | and a squadron_of the horse guards | followed by a detachment of yeomen, | all gloriously uniformed, prece colos: funeral car. On each side were four footmen and four pages with light- | ed tapers, but the immediate escort of | the car was composed of six stalwart | gentlemen of the Archers’ Guard, eight | yeomen, six Hungarian life guards and “eu:ht mounted life guards. Following the car were several bodies of infantry {and cavalry. | A large number of priests in full Icanonlcms met the procession at the ng the | Augustine’s Church and proceeded with it to the Church of the Capuchins. The clergy there marched down the alsle before the coffin and unite® in in- toning prayers, which were also ex- quisitely chanted during the service by the court choir. During the last prayer the coffin was lifted from the catafalque and the clergy, bearing torches, walked before it. Emperor Francis Joseph, at- tended by the highest officers of state bearing wands, followed. This proces- sion slowly passed from the sight of the congregation down a stone stairway to the vaults. After the last benediction had been pronounced in the vaul the mourn- ers reascended and the high chgmber- lain handed the key of the vault to the Capuchin who is the guardian of the imperial mausoleum. SOLEMN SERVICES HELD AT WASHINGTON ‘WASHINGTON Sept. 17.—An impos- ing funeral mass, commemoratiwe of the Empress Elizabeth of Austria, was celebrated at St. Matthews' Catholic “cuit Court. Church to-day, Cardinal Gibbons being the celebrant. The ceremony was of- ficial in character, under the auspices of the Austrian Minister, and among those in attendance were President Mc- Kinley and the 1aembers of his Cabi- net; the Em_assadors and Ministers of foreign countries in their brilliant dip- lomatic iniforms; representatives of the United States army, nav - and Sy~ preme Court, and a large gathering from private life. The Austrian Min- ister Mr. von Hengelmuller, was at- tended by all the members of his staff, the military attache, Baron von Ridel, in the uniform of the Austrian Imperial Guard, and Captain Rodler, naval at- tache, in the uniform of the Austrian navy, acting as ushers. In his sermon the Cardinal said a grievous crime had shocked the civil- ized world; the hand of an assassin had struck down » . inoffending lady, the conso~t of an Emperor of vast and his- toric regions. The crime had occurred, not when the Empress was seated on her throne amid pomp and majesty which migkt L .v of some fanatic, but while she was peacefully walking the street. “The man that strikes at the ruler of a nation is an enemy of social order,” declared the Cardinal. ‘‘Public peace and tranquili.y depend upon the exe- cution of the law: on the ruler or ex- ecutive f a nation depends the execu- tion of law .nd the maintenance of stable government. It behooves us, therefor . to u hold the heal cf the na- tion, whose person, as a ruler, is sa- cred.” The Cardinal paid a touching tribute to tle beauty of character of the Em- press and asked that prayvers be given not only for the repose of her soul, but also for the solace of the stricken Em- peror.

FROM HANKOW Proposed New Railroad _in China. 10 HONGKONG AMERICAN SYNDICATE’S WORK RICH MEN WHO ARE INTER- ESTED IN THE ENTERPRISE. It Is Believed That the Cost of the | Line as Now Planned Will Be From Twenty to Forty Million Dollars. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—Regarding the proposed new railroad to be cons‘ructed by an American syndicate from Han- kow to Hongkong, China, a distance of | 900 miles, ex-Senator Calvin S. Brice said to a reporter: “The American syndicate believes that it has fair data for estimating pretty closely the cost of the work. It has now on hand on the property a part of its engineering forces and is sendlng as rapidly as it can be equipped a corps of engineers and other officlals who will make tl.e survey, beginning at Hankow and extending to the city of Canton, and thence to Hongkong, and also begiring at the southern end and coming north, making an inde- pendent line for the purpose of secur- ing as good location and grades and as favorable a construction as is pos- | sible. That work, it is estimated. will consume six months, and will probably furnish us a basis for making further calls upon the syndicate. “The character of the syndicate may best be shown by a glance at the list of names. There are in it seven repre- sentatives of the Vanderbilt interests, and three of the Standard Oil Com- pany, John D. Rockefeller, William Rockefeller ai - the president of one | of the largest barks, also presidents of | several of our large trust companies, Levi P« Morton, George T. Bliss and the officials of the Carnegie Steel Com- pany. 4ne new federal company will probably also take an interest in the The contract of the syndi- cate is absolute and subject to no slips or casualties, as the whole groundwork has been done ard money to a large | amount expended and will be expended. As fast as more money is needed It will be paid in. “The cost of the road Is estimated at a minimum of £4,000,000and a maximum of £8,000,000, or from about $20,000,000 to $40,000,000. Our best opinion is that it will cost between $30,000,000 and $10,- 000,000, according to the standard adopted and the, amount of extra ex- penditures required. The - syndicate will undoubtedly control the road for a period of four or five years, during which it is subject to negotiations which may change its character. The provinces through which the road will pass are the most populous in China, having a popuiation of 300,000,000. Two of the provinces through which it passes have a population greater than that of the United States.” In addition to the information given by Mr. Brice it may be mentioned that the American railway will, by having its northern terminal at Hankow, cre- ate a direct line from Peking to Hong- Sept. | kong by means of a new road which is to be built by Belgian-French capital, and concerning which much has been sald in connection with the recent Anglo-Russian troubles in China. It will be remembered that the charge was made that Russia was furnishing all the money for the road and was using the Beigians simply as a figure-head. The road runs through what is called the English sphere of influence. It was also hinted yesterday by those in close touch with the affairs of the American syndicate that it was not improbable that the latter might own the proposed rr)((iid from Tien Tsin to Hankow in the end.
