5 FORCE, THE RAILROAD THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1898. ARGUMENT FOR BURNS Members of the Legislature Resent the Insulting Tyranny of Mal- odorous Herrin.

Where it to offer bribes, bribes have been offered; where | threats of political death and business ruin are of avail, they have not been withheld; ment are betray where promises of their constituents s have been made. uch prom- Force is the weapon now being brandished over the | heads of legislators, and if force pre- vails Dan Burns will represent the State of California in the United States Senate. As an illustration of what is being | done in behalfyof Burns' candidacy the threat concerning the organization of the State Senate may be cited. It has been given out by Burns' friends that his supporters will organize the Senate and that all members who refuse to de- clare in favor.of Burngt candidacy for United States Senator will be left out in the cold. That is to say, they will not be permitted to name any of the at- taches, nor will they be given chair- manships of any of the numerous come- mittees. Also that all bills which they seek to have passed by the Leglislature will be smothered. This threat has not had the desired effect, as many of the Senators who are bitterly opposed to Burns' candidacy declare that if such a programme is | carried out they will join with the mi- combination t¢ the bitter end. Among those who are of this way of thinking are many who are personally friendly to Burns, but who feel that his desire to become United States Senatcr detrimental to the best interests of the Republican party and contrary to the wishes of a great majority of people of the State. They resent the attempt that is being made to whip them into line and will exert every effort to de- feat the end so much desirediby the railroad. “Billy” Hamilton, who is one of the most active wor'-ers in behalf of Burns' after-dark candidacy, on Monday ap- proached a member of the Senate from the interior with the remark: “I sup- pose you fellows are going to stand in all right for Burns for Senator?’ The member replied that he did not think it necessary to express himself in the matter, as Colonel Burns had not yet declared his candidacy, and in an even- ing paper he is quoted as saying that he did not want the office. “Oh, that's all right,” replied Hamil- ton, “suppose he does declare himself; how will it be then?” “My advice is,” returned the Senator, “that if he depends upon the support of my district for his election he had better not declare himself."” It so happens that this same Senator is personally friendly to Burns. This is how he views the present situation: “I would assist Burns in any legiti- mate way, because I have always been his friend. But there is such a thing as asking too much of a man. I want to 80 back to my district after the close of the session, and if I voted to make Burns United States Senator I could not do so. The people do not want him and will not have him, and I am not going to ruin myself and betray the Ef“p'le who elected me by voting for m.” It may be that there are members of the Legislature who are not as con- scientious as the gentleman just quoted and for these Burns and the tricky Herrin have another argument. Even the railroad manipulators con- cede that the use of money will be necessary to overcome the scruples of many of the legislators, and plans were made for the provision of this money from the funds of the ralliroad com- pany. Having in mind past judiclal inquiries a8 to the manner in which the funds of the corporation were expended for po- litical purposes, thrifty Herrin and his co-laborers arranged that the bribe money necessary should be taken from the treasury of the corporation and charged to-the “bridges and buildings” account. ‘When news of this arrangement reached New York there came a pro- test from an official who represents an interest in the Southern Pacific Company not always in harmony with that of the main interest controiled by Huntington. The official in question is no less a person than T. H. Hubbard. first vice president of the company. His protest took the form of a tele- gram to the conspirators In San Fran- cisco in which he conveyed an impera- tive order that the “bridges and buildings” account should not be held accountable for funds expended for political purposes, and alsc that no funds should be #0 used, as contem- plated, whether charged to “bridges and buildings” or any other account. The existence of this telegram may 0ssibly account for Colonel Burns' de- ay in announcing his candidacy. With the Hubbard telegram are some others not exactly complimentary to the un- truthful Herrin. As a consequence the chief of Huntington's political bureau has, within the past few days, been straining every nerve and pulling every b prefer- | of mystery to the situation by fi potent to cause legislators to | is | N string in dn effort to prove to his angry superiors that he does not deserve the have administered to hica and that, thanks to his shrewd manipulations, Burns' strength is so great that his election is assured. This accounts for the activity of the rail- | the awkward blunder made by Herrin in announcing Burns’ candidacy on be- half of the Southern Pacific Company. The Senatorial situation as it now presents itself is causing much appre- hension in the Democratic camp on a count of the attitude of the Examiner. Since the rupture of the private rela- tions between that paper and the Southern Pacific Compan~ the aminer has posed as the champion of y of the great P, the people and the en corporation headed by Col ington. Now that Mr.. Hearst's organ has come out as the champion of the candidacy of Colonel Burns and the mouthpiece of the iniquitous Herrin, the Democrats are all at sea and the Republicans are giving ear to tales concerning an underground passs from the yellow building to Hearst's headquarters at the corner of Third and Market streets. Herrin himself has added an element aunt- X- to 8 [ ing what he is pleased to call the aminer’s scalp,” which he claims have taken at the late election. sponsible people who float about on'the outskirts of the political whiripocl are amusing themselves by telling sober tales of a renewal of the secret com- pact between the railroad and the Ex- aminer. These same misguided individ- | uals, who are not in a position to know the facts, but who wish to get credit for knowledge they do not posses, point out, in corroboration of their weird tale, the fact that the Examiner has abandoned its hostility to the corpora- tion and has indorsed the candidacy of Colonel Burns, who is avowedly the railroad’s choice for United States Senatcr. The contract, they say, cov- ers “two sessions of the Legislature and one general election.” period the corporation is to “‘enjoy im- munity from hostile attack” on the part of the paper. They even ga so far as to declare that the $8000 still due and unpaid on ac- | count of a former contract of a similar nature, is to be paid by the railroad without prejudice to the stipulations of the present agreement, and that it is wholly a secret agreement and is e R s | not hedged about by the pretense of an nority if necessary and fight the Burns | advertising contract as was the case in the former contract. It is, of course, incredible in view of what has gone before it in the history of the railroad company that there was any necessity for entering into a secret agreement to purchase the Examiner's silence and good will. The only plausible explanation of the wild story is that the railroad people, know- ing that the act of putting Burns for- ward as the railroad’s candidate for Senator would have the immediate effect of antagonizing every reputable newspaper in the State, deemed it ad- visable to procure the support of the Examiner and thus be in a position to ward off the attacks that were fore- seen. Whichever way the truth lies, it is certain that the Examiner now occu- pies the enviable position of being the mouthpiece of Colonel Burns and the untruthful Herrin. Perhaps the most regrettable fea- ture of the situation as it stands to- day is the attempt made yesterday by an afternoon paper, presumably at the instigation of the unspeakable Herrin, to drag the name of an estimable and philanthropic lady into the muck in which the railroad's political agents are wallowing. The cowardly attack will, of course, be without effect, but it serves to show to what ends the pro- moters of Burns' candidacy will go in order to influence the public mind. Members of the Legislature who re- side In the interfor and who come to San Francisco are being subjected to every conceivable blackmailing scheme in an endeavor to secure their support for Burns. An instance in point is that of a member of the Assembly who came to the city two days ago for the purpose of doing what he could to se- cure for a personal friend a position on the police force. He went to a member of the Board of Police Commissioners and preferred his request and was astonlshed when the honorable Commissioner named as the price of his favor the con- dition that the Assemblyman should vote for Burns for Senator. The Assemblyman, to his credit be it said, put an abrupt end to the nego- tiations by declaring that under no con- sideration would he ever consent to cast his vote for Burns. Needless to say the Assemblyman’s friend will not ob- tain the desired position in the ranks of San Francisco's finest.

BB R R R R R R R R AR HEARST AS DEMOCRACY'S NEW MOSES Proposition All Hands Shy At. WANTS TARPEY TO CONTROL WILL OPEN HIS SACK IF HIS WISHES BE GRANTED. Meeting of the State Central Commit- tee Adjourns for Lack of a Quorum—~Candidates for Empty Honors. Seven members of the Democratic State Central Committee responded to the call for a meeting yesterday at the Cali- fornia Hotel. They were: Governor Budd, Mayor Phelan, M. F. Tarpey, Charles Fay, W. F. Alford, J. C. Mec- Kinstry and Chairman Seth Mann. The ostensible object of the meeting was to select somebody to receive the complimentary vote of the minority for | United States Senator, and to provide| [ ways and means to meet a deficit of $3800, | | but, like many gatherings of a similar | nature, it also had a secret meaning, of which but a few were aware. This secret purpose, if it may be so termed, was to promote the wish of Wil- liam R. Hearst, proprietor of the Ex- | aminer, to place the control of the Demo- and cratic party of the city State in the hands of M. F. Tarpey. Mr. Hearst's proposal, as has been outlined to some of the leaders of the party, is that if Mr. Tarpey be given the chairmanship of the Democratic State Céntral Committee and be permitted to reorganize the State and | local Democracy on lines of his own, he (Hearst) will assume the indebtedness of the State organization, which at the. pres- | ent_time amounts to $3%00, and will also | lend the support of the Examiner to pro- mote the interests of the party as a| whole. | This proposition has been made to sev- | | eral leading Democrats during the past | | few days by Mr. Tarpey, who claimed to | act as the mouthpiece of Mr. Hearst. | That the scheme has not met with a fa- | | vorable reception is not due to a lack of | tion of the fact that it will be | to reorganize the party. Local | ill retain a vivid recollection of | | ess which attended the organiza- | | tion of the malodorous and discredited | | Committee of One Hunlired, as well as | the highly satisfactory and wholly cred- | itable reform measures of Gavin McNab, mes known as the ‘‘Whispering Local Democrats also remember that | Mr. ‘Hearst undertook to reorganize the | New York State Democracy. The suc: | cess attending his efforts in that direction | 1s a matter of history to which reference | | is made only in whispers. Then, too, the | part the Examiner is playing in the present Senatorial campaign as regards the interests of the Southern Pacific Com- pany and its candidate for the position, has become a subject of grave suspicion | in the minds of many Democrats who | have the interest of their party at heart. ctacle of the Democratic party ate reorganized on the basis of free silver, free beer and free everything— ‘‘not only hoisted, but natled”—would no | doubt be an edifying spéctable, but it. is | & dream that fails just short of realiza- | tion. However, owing to the fact there was no quorum present no definite action was taken on any of the gropuslllons, though the members locked themselves in a room and Informally discussed them all. One of those present inquired of the | chairman whether the complimentary Yote for Senator would be presented to | Stephen M. White,and as Chairman Mann could not en]lghlen him and the other { members would not the matter ‘was dropped. A few smiles greeted the in- | quiry, as three of those present have a | | longing for the compliment. M. F. Tar=- pey intends going to Mexico soon and would not mind delaying his trip if he could be assured that he would receive it.. Mayor Phelan is not adverse to the | compliment, because it might aid him in obtaining the coveted title at a future | date. Governor Budd has labored hard | | for his party and therefore feels it would | be no more that right to present him with the vote. This question, as well as the others, will be brought up again when next the com- mittee meets. A meeting 18 scheduled for a week from to-day. ANOTHER JOB STOPPED. Auditor Broderick Objects to the City Paying for School Director Ragan’s Improvements. Auditor Broderick has raised objections to the scheme of the Board of Supervisors to establish a police station in the build- Ing at Haight and Stanyan streets, owned by School Director Ragan. Auditor Brod- erick’s objections are not to establishing the station exactly, but he does kick at the scheme railroaded through the board to provide $3000 worth of internal improve- ments at the city’s expense, and he has warned contractors against Making pro- posals for the work. The improvements contemplated are a bituminous rock roadway through the building, to cost $250, and handsome elec- tric fixtures, frescoed ceilings and bric-a- brac for the delectation of the squad of police and usual station hangers-on, fig- ured to cost the balance of the $3000. Auditor Broderick is of the opinion that the expense of the fixtures is upon the l&ss{)rthulslhe b;]lldl , Dr. Ragan, and at the Supervisors have to relieve )lll,:l of it. B0 e Harry Gray already has the. contract to lay the asphalt roadway, and says he is willing to take a chance for the money. as the auditing of his claim will be in the hands of Broderick's successor. ———— Triplicate, standing, revolving and hand ;-;l:tr‘?rs. r;on:]ba.

UTTERS A WARNING SPEECH SAYS FORBEARANCE SOON MAY CEASE. Provocative Words of Sir Edmund J. Monson at a British Chamber of Commerce Banquet in Paris. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. PARIS, Dec. 6.—At the silver jubilee banquet of the British Chamber of Commerce here this evening, the Em- bassador, Sir Edmund J. Monson, re- ferring to the “new diplomacy” which is said to have come into fashion dur- ing the past year, said it was chiefly due to the enterprise of the press, but also it was in a measure due to mother country innovations and to the origin- ality of the American mind—ever rest- lessly watching to improve everything— which would perhaps end by wiping the diplomats of the old school off the face of the earth. Sir Edmund Monson then proceeded to dilate on the recent remarkable out- burst of public feeling in Great Britaln, provoked by the Fashoda incident, and said he ventured to express the hope that the idea of Great Britain being un- duly squeezable and prone to make graceful but impolitic concessions was thoroughly exploded. He appealed to France to disabuse herself of all suspicion of unfair inten- tion upon the part of Great Britain; to try to believe there was no general animosity in England toward France; and to meet England on every ques- tion at issue with an honest desire for 4an equitable arrangement. He con- cluded as follows: “I would earnestly ask officials in power and unofficial’ exponents of pub- lic opinion to discountenance and ab- stain from a continuance of the policy of pin-pricks, which, while it can enly procure an ephemeral satisfaction to a short-lived Ministry, must inevitably perpetuate across the channel an in- tolerable irritation. “I would entreat them to resist the temptation to thwart British enter- prise by petty maneuvers such as the proposal to start colleges as rivals of General Kitchener’'s --ojected institu- tion in the reconquered Soudan. Such ill-considered provocation might have the effect of converting Great Britain's policy of forbearance in Egypt into the adoption of measures at which I pre- sume French sentiment is not aiming.” LONDON, Dec. 7.—Sir Edmund Mon- son’s remarkable speech in Paris last evening has created a sensation here. Most of the newspapers regard it as an unfortunate indiscretion, pointing out that the American Embassadors he referred to, despite their leanings to the new diplomacy, would never have addressed such ai warning to Great Britain, There s little doubt that the speech will be deeply resented in France, especially as it was evidently carefully prepared and was read in the delivery. COURSING PARK CHANGES. Mrs. Dalton and M. J. Donovan Have Sold Their Interests to the Ingleside Club. The directors o1 the Inrleside Coursing Club held a very, important meeting last evening in Pvthian Hall, the object of which was to settle up accounts with Mrs. John Dalton and M. J. Donovan. The club incorporated on Monday last under the name of the Ingleside Coursing Association, and mmediately after a committee composed of D. Shannon, H. Deckelman, Wiliam Halpin, D. Dillon, William Thompson, W. Elmore and Charles Morris Interviewed Mrs. Dalton and M. J. Donovan, with the object in view of purchasing their interests in the Ingleside Coursing Park. Mrs. Dalton was pleased to relinquish her half inter- est in the ?ark. and her case was quickly d’r‘%flfid of by paying her in cash the sum o . Donovan was not such an easy game to handle and he fought to a finish, but final- ly disposed of one-quarter of his inter- est with the understanding that the re- n;lainl‘rin qua.rt"l c{ blnt;rest“ may be au{- chased by the club when it 1s prepared to s“mre up_final accounts. either Donovan nor Mrs. Dalton, in ac- cordance with the agreement entered into last evening, shall in future have an; voice in the management of the park af- fairs. The directors of the park are now com,gosed of D. Shannon, Willlam Halpin, D. Dilton, H. Deckelman and W. Elmore. Three hundred shares of stock which were issued yesterday were quickly pur- chased by members. In fact, there is not a share left for purchase. In the near fu- ture there will be many improvements made in the park, such as an alteration of the grand stand and a first class picnic ground where ladles and gentlemen can etgoy gleuant outings. * n Sunday the club will give an open stake, which has already been fliled, the entrance being $2 50, with $800 added. The drawing will be held on Thursday even- lnf. ohn Grace, the popular jud?. under in- vitation from Mr. g}ock of the Los An/ eles Coursing Club, will judge the grand ‘hristmas day open meeting which will be held in the Los Angeles Coursing Park. T e e WILL NOT BE REBUILT. There is a general belief among those who take an Interest In the matter that a new theater will be constructed to take the place of the Baldwin, either on the old site or elsewhere. J. J. Gottlob is authorlt{ for the declaration that there is no new theater coming. “I am sorry to have to deny these ru- mors,” said Mr. Gottlob, last evening, “but you can say for me that all these stories about the proposed comstruction of =‘ new theater are ‘in the alir. “Mr. . Baldwin has assured me that in the event he rebuilds the Baldwin Hotel | there will be no theater or opera house embodied in it and there is no one else looking for such an investment. Of course, if one of the old houses should be de- stroyed there would be a field for a new one. I am confident it will be a long time before the people of San Francisco will secure & new and first-class playhouse. REICHSTAG OPENED By THE KAISER Czar’s Peace Scheme Approved. ALLUDES TO RECENT WAR SAYS GERMANY WAS STRICTLY NEUTRAL. William Hopes His Visit to the Sul- tan Will Be of Permanent Bene- fit to German Prestige. Bpecial - Dispatch to The Call. BERLIN, Dec. 6.—Emperor William opened. the Reichstag in the White Hall of the Royal Castle here to-day, in the presence of the members of the Bundesrath, the generals and other military officers, who were grouped | around the throne, in front of which the Reichstag Deputies assembled. The | Empress sat in the grand balcony, and the members of the diplomatic corps occupied the adjoining gallery. His Majesty, who arrived at noon, ‘was accompanied by his sons and by the Persian Prince Mirza. After the Centrist leader, Lingens, had called for cheers for his Majesty, the imperial Chancellor, Prince Hohenlohe, handed the speech to the Emperor, who read it in a loud voice. One of the first bills mentioned was an anti-strike measure, providing for the punishment of those who intimidate non-strikers, but not interfering with the workmen'’s right of coalition. The Emperor said that Germany's re- lations with all the foreign powers con- tinued friendly and the principal object of his policy would be to contribute to the maintenance of peace. Therefore his Majesty hailed with warm approval the Czar's magnanimous proposal for the furtherance of that object. Continuing, the Emperor referred to the assassination of the Empress of Austria as a savage and ruthless act which had caused him deep pain and which had evoked the most sincere sympathy throughout Germany. Alluding to the war between Spain and the United States, his Majesty said Germany’s neutrality was conscienti- ously and loyally observed toward both belligerents. Then, taking up colonial affairs, Emperor William pointed out the measures taken for the economic development of Kiaochau, declaring that, while conscientiously respecting the well-acquired rights of third parties, the German Government would direct its efforts to the further promotion of its economic relations with China, which are yearlv growing more complete. There was a special passage devoted to the inspection of meat, on which subject his Majesty said: “In order to avert the dangers in- volved in the traffic of unexamined meat intended for human beings whether of home or foreign origin, the question of the general introduction of a sgystem of inspection for slaughter houses and meat is being considered. The federal government’s bill regulating the sub- ject will,-I hope, occupy your attention during the nresent session.” Emperor William concluded by say- ing that it was with deep emotion that he had visited, with the Empress, the spots rendered dear to the whole of Christendom by the sufferings of the Savior, adding: “The anxious desire of my predeces- sors on the throne of Prussia was to erect there a place of worship of the evangelical confession. That it was granted to me to fulfill this desire and hand over the Redeemer's Church at Jerusalem tc the Chief Lord is a fresh incentive to me to further employ the power vested in me by the grace of God in behalf of the eternal and funda- ADVERTISEMENTS.

I cherish the hope that my stay in the Turkish em- pireand the brilliant reception accorded me by the Sultan and the Turkish peo- ple everywhere will prove to be of per- manent benefit to German prestige and the national interests of Germany.” His Majesty's speech was repeatedly cheered. Count von Lorchenfeld,.the Bavarian | plenipetentiary, called for three cheers | for the Emperor, after which Emperor | ‘William and his sons left the hall and | the Deputies proceeded to the Reichs- tag, where Herr Lingens took the chair as senior member. After the usual formalities of the opening the Reichstag adjourned until Wednesday.
