These f n‘\ of Pe kins believe, however, that as the pres ent Senator to report vored th aligned himself, according against Dan Burns and fa- = candidacy of S. Grant that in this is the true reason that he prompted the utterances of the State’s executive, and that this is the begin- ning of the trouble between the Re- publican leaders. Notwithstanding that the adherents of Perk state that he disclaims any intention of having attempted to take excepiions to the course of Governor Gage it is known here, and comes from undoubted authority, that Perkins was fully aware when he arrived her terday that the Governor had on sev eral occasions said that he would at the first opportunity r t publicly the 1s he alleged Per crit ins had made of his cofficial acts. The megeting of the two gentlemen terday, whici curred on the speakers’ stand, W nessed by a crowd of notables, who were keen with curiosity. They noticed that Senator Perkins was ed at the stand by all of those present pting Governor Gage, and it is recorded by those who saw the incident that Gage deliberately turned h back to the Senatorial guest. Three times did Per- kins make himself known to Governor age. Finally Perkins saic “Gov- 20T, ive at Downey, necar which ed on the train, do you not?” caused a perfunctory response Senator Perkins, who went to San Francisco on the overland to-night, was seen by a representative of The Call, and while guarded in his state- | ments he said: “I had the opportunity to resent the | reflection made by Governor Gage. I| did not take advantage of it because 1 prefer to treat the subject in a gen- | tlemanly way. I am a servant only of | the people, and as such whatever treat- ment is accorded me of a personal na- | ture a public rostrum on such an occa- | sion would not be my choice for mak- | ing a reply.

The parade, which occupied one hour in passing a given point, was headed by the well-disciplined Americus Club of Pasadena. This organization was ated vehicles, six-in- April hands, tally-hos, carts and drags, bi- cycle clubs, caballeros, military and civic bodies.

A Chinese mounted on a white horse and dressed like a man- darin of the flowe kingdom was the marshal of this division, who carried a small American flag that he waved over his head to command attention. The entire display, witnessed by thousands along the line of march, was continuously cheered while the invited guests from neighboring States and Territories reviewed the parade from a stand erected in front of the City Hall. The executive committee this morn- ing, with appropriate ceremony, un- veiled a memorial tablet that had been placed in a niche of the Times building to befittingly recognize the services of that journal's persistent battle for the succ of a free harbor at San Pedro.
