WEDNESDAY OPENING DAY NOTED HIGH-STEPPERS WILL | BE EXHIBITED. A Feature of the Week to Be a Polo Match Between the Burlin- game and Riverside Teams. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 30.—The first horse show that has ever been held in Southern California will be formal- 1y opened at Fiesta Park on Wednes- day evening, and there will be a con- tinuous display of horse flesh on Feb- ruary 1, 2, 3 and 4, concluding on Sat- will be awarded. The arrangements for | complete. Two large tents cover the arena, the private boxes and the seats for the main show, while another tent covers box stalls and the ordinary stalls for horses. Though the fashionable world of north | and south might stand night air, the | pampered beauties of crack stables would be totally unable to go through | the ordeal. Not a crevice is allowed in any of the stalls where the lordly animals are housed. The influenza and p apparently have taken a fancy to{ and colds ard sneezing are just prevalent among the high steppers as among those who have to toil for their daily bread. Staid citizens of Los Angeles who were taking a quiet Sunday afternoon walk were surprised at an impromptu parade of thirty-six glorious animals from the depo: to Fiesta Park. The | horses are all in charge of Walter Ho- bart. Most of them belong to him, a few belong to “Jack” Parrott, who has many entries, a few to Tnomas Kelly of San Francisco, and a few to Mrs. ‘Lester, the sister of Mr. Hobart, who as well known in San Francisco so- ; as Miss Alice Hobart and who a years ago married Mr. Lester of Santa Monica. Mr. Hobart's horses which are en- te are Damrosch and Seidl, Hunt- ress, Spot, Lightfoot, Prejudice, Pride, Dip and Sparkle. Among Mr. Parrott’s horses are Pa- queta, Papita, Greens Rufus, Sovereign, Alibaba and Frills. Barrett Fithian, S. P. Stow and Wiley Thompson of Santa Barbara will have their strings on hand to-morrow. Mr. Hobart has brought with him five polo ponies, which are said to be “dream: by those well skilled in polo hc Mr. Mackie. The Riverside team is said to have improved wonderfully and the Burlingame team has not been al- lowing the grass to grow under its aristocratic feet. The horses that probably attract most attention are Park four-in- hand, owned by Walter S. Hobart. The g Markarian Brothers Closely Guarded | Agcinst the Wrath of i Citizens. | FRESNO, Jan. 30.—N. S. Markarian and his brother, Charles Markarian, who were | arrested on Sunday morning for having set fire to their place of business about a week ago, were arraigned in Justice Johnson's court this afternoon. Their bail was fixed at $5000. Since one of the broth- | ers confessed the plot to fire the building | the feeling against them in this commun- ity has become very strong and there is fear that an attempt will be made to | lynch them. They are kept In close con- | finement and visitors are not allowed to | | see them. |WISCONSIN'S SENATORIAL | DEADLOCK IS BROKEN | National Committeeman Payne Ar-| | ranges a Settlement in the In- | terest of Party Harmony. | MADISON, Wis.,Jan. 30.—The Senatorial ight.

The matfer was discussed at length | and was laid over to February 6.

The wheelers aresixteen hands and one- half inch high. Although not quite up to the extraordinary standard of the leaders, they beat anything in the way of wheelers that has been seen in this country. When Mr. Hobart takes hold of the lines on Saturday night and drives the four horses around the ring to compete for the cup that has been presented by Collis P. Huntington, the lovers of horseflesh will see a sight that the southern metropolis has never be- fore enjoyed. Mr. Hobart will have some hard com- petitioh next Saturday night for the Huntington cup. The Bay Wood Stud, which is owned by John Parrott, has entered a crack-a-jack four-in-hand composed of June Day, December Night, Lancer and Senorita. Although they are They will be pitted not only against Hobart's crack four-in-hand, but against a four-in- hand owned by Len V.

Mrs. Lester's team consists of four light bays—all beauties and sixteen hands high. Czar and Sultan are the leader are Emperor and King are the wheelers.

SENATOR CARTER WOULD COMPEL THE NATIVES TO OBEY Prefers Sending the Whole Ameri- can Army to the Philippines to Receding One Inch. WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Mason resolutions in the Senate to-day: of the soldiers and sailors; said islands; D RS e R season begins in the said islands. 24 D R R e e e R R R R R SR RS WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—An effort on the part of Allison to obtain consideration in the Senate to-day of the Indian appro- priation bill precipitated a running debate which occupied all the time until the Sen- ate, at 2 o'clock, went Into executive ses- sion on the peace treaty. Jones of Arkansas, leading the opposi- tion to the treaty, opened the debate by insisting that time should be taken for the discussion. of pending resolutions hav- ing a collateral bearing upon the treaty before the treaty itself was disposed of, and Bacon's resolutions finally were laid before the Senate. After some parliamentary sparring the resolutions were made the text of a strong speech by Carter of Montana. Ordinarily calm and deliberate in his utterances, Carter to-day spoke with impassioned earnestness, warning his colleagues that a favorable vote on any of the pending resolutions would be a vote of lack of con- fidence in the American people. He de- clared that the adoption of the resolutions would be a pledge to those who were de- fying the authority of this country in the Philippines and that when the treaty had been ratified this Government would in- quire in those islands who were in rebel- lion against our authority and if neces- sary to maintain our authority we would whip them to death. Carter said that Senators were belittling | the dignity and destroying the confidence reposed in this country by foreign nations by endeavoring to mortgage the future policy of the Government and voting a lack of confidence in the nation by even attempting to adopt such resolutions as were pending. He declared that the pass- age of such acts was a declaration that the people had no confidence in those who were to be in a position to make a dis- position of tue islands in accordance with the terms of the treaty. It amounted to a pledge to ourselves that we did not pro- pose to do what we did not want to do. 1t would have been just and proper, he said for the first Congress to attempt to hind Congress for a hundred years as for this Congress to attempt to bind the action in a matter of this kind of any future Con- gress. T “The adoption of these resolutions,” he declare ‘would be a pledge to those who are defying the authority of the United States Government in the Philippines. As a nation we cannot afford to have it un- derstood that the United States army was expelled from these islands. Some of the Philippine insurrection seems to have been imported by way of the Hongkong Philippine junta into this country. 1 would not vote for such a petty, trifling promise even if it were to take the entire army of the United States to snow the aggregation of Malays, Mahomedans and Filipinos that we would not budge one inch.” Carter tho\x%ht this country needed a change in its foreign policy, and thought our trade would not amount to much abroad until it was once thoroughly un- derstood that an American citizen would be protected in all his rights in any part of the world. He thought it a shame on the United States Government that many of its citizens, seeking protection, passed by the American consulates and entered those of Great Britaln or France. ARGUMENT IN HOUSE ON THE ARMY BILL Several Amendments Adopted and the Final Vote Will Be Taken This Afternoon. S WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—The House put in a hard day's work on the army bill, and to-night when it.adjourned, thirteen of the twenty pages had been completed. The committee amend- ments, giving the President discretion- ary power to reduce the size of the in- fantry companies and cavalry troops to sixty men each, were adopted, and also a series of amendments to reduce the officers of the staff to 331. A sub- stitute was adopted for the section pro- viding for promotions designed to equalize promotions. A fight was made to reduce the age limit for officers to be appointed to the various staff de- partments from 50 to 30, but it failed. An amendment was, however, adopted to require mental and moral as well as a physical examination for such appointees. Much of the time to-day was occupied in chort speeches on the general proposition to increase’ the army and annex the Philippines, and there were several lively personal con- troversies. The House will meet to-morrow and whatever time remains before 3 o'clock, after the bill is completed under the five-minute rule, will be devoted to general debate. both sides will close. The final vote is to be taken at 3 o’clock. COLORADO'S STORM A RECORD-BREAKER Heavy Fall of Snow Continues and the Mercury Is Near Zero. . DENVER. Colo., Jan. 30.—The snow- storm has continued all day over the greater part of Colorado and is said by old settlers to be a record-breaker. Nearly all the mountain railroads are blockaded and in most cases the com- panies have given up the hope of open- ing them until after the storm subsides. Snowslides are reported at many places, but the only loss of life so far known was at Apex, where the family of Wil- llam Rudolph was buried under tons of ice and snow. The temperature has been falling all day. At 9 o'clock to- night it was near zerp in Denver, with a prospect of going considerably below before morning. At Como, in the South Park, it has been snowing continuously for five days and eighteen inches has fallen in the last twenty-four hours. A rotary plow with three engines left here this after- noon with a gang of carpenters to re- move a snowslide and repair a burned bridge near Mount Princeton and thus release a freight train which has been imprisoned since Friday. It is said that a stage line will be started from Grant, a station on the Colorado and Southern, sixty miles from Denver, to Leadville, in case the | rallroad is not opened soon. A Rio Grande passenger train had a narrow edcape from destruction about a mile from Red CIiff to-day. Engineer Russ saw a slide coming down the mountain side and reversed his engine in time to save the train, though the engine was deralled, the tender demol- Ished and the fireman slightly hurt. 4 Whereas, A large number of the sailors and soldiers of the United States are in the Philippine Islands or on their way there; there are different newspaper reports as to the condition of the health and whereas, it is reported by the press that a large percentage of the sick are made so by reason of the climate and whereas, it Is stated upon good medical authority that during the late year as high as 50 per cent of the soldiers unaccustomed to that climate have died by reason of the said climate; Resolved, That the Secretary of War be directed to furnish for the in- formation of the Senate a statement as to the percentage of our soldiers who are sick and have been sick, and the number of deaths in our army by reason of the sickness caused by the climate in said islands, and to set forth when, according to the generally accepted | over the Philippines and the question of The heavy weights on | 1 of Illinois introduced the following and whereas, of therefore be it terms, the sickly FEEEE I I A4t WASHINGTON, Jan. 30. — The Presi- dent to-day sent to the Senate corre- spondence on file in the State Department bearing upon the peace treaty and it Was‘ read in to-day’s executive session. | In submitting the papers the President | sent a brief message saying that he transmitted them in accordance with the | fesolution. The reading consumed ' the | entire executive session, lasting from 2 to 5:30, except a few minutes at the close. The principal interest among the Sena. tors attached to the President’s instruc tions is to insist upon the cession of the island of Luzon and after that in the de- | cision to take the entire group of islands. This latter development appears from the correspondence to be a growth, and the suggestion was made by the Commis- sioners to the President as the result of | occurrences at Paris, after the arrival | there of the Commissioners. In his dis- atch concerning Luzon he said there was ut one alternative: The United States must either take the island and assume sovereignty or return it to Spain, and of | the two courses he preferred the' former. | Spain was from the first unwilling to | cede any of the Philippines, and she made special objection to letting gd of Luzon alone, The Commissioners, with tire ex- | ception of Senator Gray, urged that to | take Luzon and leave the other islands of the archipelago in the hands of the | Spaniards would be to invite lnnumerflblei | | 1 For e rP PP P PR R RIS P SRR PR NPT ERRR PSR PR TR IR DRI FRRRR PRSP NVPV PV RE PRV RV DEIPPISRRPV PP RI P IR PR ERR PR RIS complications with other nations, and es- pecially with Europe and Spain. Much stress was laid upon the probabil- ity of future trouble th Spain. With Luzon under American administration there would be a vast improvement, they | wrote, and\ the other islanders would | soon grow rhore and more rebellious, and with Spain's oppressive methods of gov: ernment, we would soon again find that | we had another Cuba at another door. | Furthermore, there would be constant fil ibustering and we should find ourselves | spending millions to preserve a state of neutrality, just as we did in the case of Cuba prior to our declaration of war on account of that island. General Merritt's testimony on this point was cited, and was made the reason for much of the argument in favor of | taking the entire group. The Presidem.} does mnot appear to have at any| time given explicit instructions to con- | summate the bargain by taking all the Philippines, but rather, after hearing a full explanation, to have left the matter to the discretion of the Commissioners. The entire controversy was practically suming responsibility for the payment of the Spanish bonds for which the Cu- ban revenues were pledged. The Spaniards from the first insisted upon an indemnity for the Philippines, and the correspondence shows that after the proposition to pay $20,000,000 was made things proceeded much more smoothly and were soon brought to aclose. The American commissioners appear to have been of one mind as to the wisdom of taking over all the Philippines, with | the exception of Senator Gray, who, not- | withstanding he signed the treaty, held | out to the last against the policy of ac-| quiring these islands. In one notable dis- | patch he pleaded zealously against the | Pollcy as unpatriotic, un-American and | nconsistent with probity and good states- manship. After a brief debate the Senate refused to print the correspondence. b AGONCILLO CONTINUES HIS VAIN PROTESTS WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Sixto Lopez, secretary of Agoncillo, the Philippine rep- resentadve here, called at the State De- partment this afternoon and left with the chief clesk "another communication ad- dressed to the Secretary of State protest- ing against the attitude of our Govern- ment toward the Filipino “‘republic.”” The terms of the protest do not go as far as an ultimatum. The same fate awalits this communication as that which befell its redecessors. It will be diplomatically gnored. Accompanying the communication is a long memorial addressed to the Senate containing a comprehensive argument in opposition to the ratification of the treaty and which the envoy asks the President to send to that body. The letter of trans- mittal contains more than the mere re- quest, but Agoncillo feels that he Iis bound by courtesy not to make It public until an opportunity is had by the State Department officials to make a reply. FITZSIMMONS’ MONEY WILL BE COVERED Announcerient Made After Sharkey | Had Put “Jack” McCor- mick to Sleep. PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 30.—Tom Sharkey to-night announced that O'Rourke would, on his behalf, cover the money deposited in New York by Fitzsimmons. The announcement was made after Sharkey had put out “Jack” McCormick of this city in the second round of what was to have been a six- round go at the Arena. The bout lasted as long as it did probably because the sallor wanted to give the great crowd present something for their money. Sharkey decided to end the exhibition after a lively exchange in the opening of the second. He put in a left upper- cut, sent right and left in turn to the jaw and brought the right up again to the same spot. MecCormick went down and stayed the limft. When he got to his feet again Tom banged a right in the stomach and left on the jaw and the local man went out of business. The round lasted two minutes and fifteen seconds. ——— PUT UP A CLEAN AND CLEVER FIGHT Muller and Thompson Go Fifteen Rounds to a Draw at Los Angeles. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 30.—Fred Mul- ler of San Francisco and “Bob” Thomp- son (colored) of this city fought fifteen rounds to a draw to-night before the Los Angeles Athletic Club. John Brin refereed the mill. Thompson was over the stipulated weight and forfeited 15 per cent of the gate receipts. Muller put up a strong fight, and in the fourth round and again in the fourteenth had the colored man distressed, but the gong saved him. Thompson tried many times with terrific rights for a knock- out blow, but Muller cleverly blocked the blows or ducked under them. It was a clean scientific match, and the decision met with favor. Considerable money had been wagered, with Muiler a slight favorite. In the preliminaries Young Dempsey of this city knocked out “Kid” Cham- ) THE EMPORIUM. | THE EMPORIUM. ?”...ib’i”)i.’i..’.
