The admiral's remarks were of | a humorous nature and intensely inter- esting. The banqueters cheered to the echo | when Governor Lee of South Dakota was | introduced by Attorney General Ford. He said he had reason to be proud of California, San Francisco and the State Red Cross Society for the many acts of | kindness to the South Dakota troops. Adjutant General Lambert represented | Governor Lind of Minnesota, who, the | | General said, was' unavoidably absent.

While the committee had done every- thing in its power to make the banquet | a success, it was marred by two unfore- seen occurrenc The first was that Tirey L. Ford was not in fit condition to preside and the second was an,asinine Jjoke piayed by Secretar State Horticultural Society. The committee had arranged to provide the guests—army, navy and State of- ficials—with two-bit cigars, but Mr. Le- long juggled with the cigars and passed | a loaded article around. Of course, when lit, the cigars exploded. Everybddy was disgusted with the perpetration of such a joke on such an occasion. They left the table and went away from the ban- quet hall. At the conclusion of the banquet all marched to the pavilion, where the Club of "9 held a reception In honor of the dis- tinguished visitors. General Shafter de- livered a short adc ot spectators. Colonel Duboce of the First California Volunteers were each introduced to the people and were heartily recelved. To-morrow night President A. B.

He calls attention to the fact that this is the only large city in the| United States that has no order regu- | lating the installation of electric wires according to the rules of the National Board of Underwriters. He recommends the passage of an ordinance empowering the department to issue certificates under those rules certifying to the efficiency of the work done. ” During the fiscal year ending June 30 last the department received alarms and 97,427 police calls. The equipment con- sists of 207 gongs and tappers, 371 miles of wire, 2282 cells of battery, 278 fire box- es, 200 police boxes, 43 engine house ser- vices and 5 central police systems.

At a meeting of the Pacific Coast Beer Bottlers’ Protective Association held yes- terday the question of giving encourage- ment to local cigar-makers was discussed. It was stated that there are at the pres- ent time very few local white men en- gaged in the manufacturing of cigars. In order to show the sympathy of this as- sociation for the cigar-makers of San Francisco the following resolutions were adopted: Whereas, The promising outlook for home manufactures has encouraged the cigar- makers of San Francisco to inaugurate a movement for the rehabilitation of their industry in this motropolis, and believing that there is no good reason why the Cali- fornla made cigars should not be restored to full popularity in this community, bring- ing to_every retail tradesman In San cisco direct pecunlary benefits and to every citizen the indirect benefits that come from an increasing permanent population and the steady expansion of cur man: turing {ndulitries, therefore be Resolved, That the Pacific Coast Beer Bottlers' 'Protective Association hereby pledges lts moral support to the movement now on foot under the direction of the San Francisco Protective Association to secure a fair division of patronage to home made cigars, and to do everything in its power to restore to full favor in this community the California blue label cigar. pitrie sl < xR Str Jung Bahudur, an East Indian the wiring of all gn- | potentate, owns & $10,000 hat, [ R e R A Lelong of the | ss to the thousands | Admiral Kautz, the Gov- | ernor, Governor Lee of South Dakota and | | | | society, invited all present to visit the |the assassination or murder of the crew of the | | ‘L | propeller of the ROBERT BURDETTE IS SERIOUSLY ILL Stricken With Vertigo While De- livering the Opening Lecture of the Hanford Course.

OONOBURANONO RO RORIRGRONON T LOWONING RO LIIRORORICD DESTRUCTION OF THE SATURNUS Steamer Captured by Filipinos. g Spectal Dispateh to The Call WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.—A report has; been received by mail at the War Depart- | ment giving an account of the capture| and destruction of the steamer Saturnus, | which carried $40,000 in cash and a valu-| able cargo. The report follows: | The United States gunboat Pampanga ar- | rived here yesterday morning bringing news of | the capture of the steamer Saturnus, belonging to the Compania Maritima. The facts as gath- ered from those who know are as follows: The Saturnus sailed from Manila on the | morning of July 30 for San Fernando de la Union, on the north side of the Guif of Lin- | gayan, Cayvian, Currimao and Aparri, all of | Which’ are norshern ports. It is supposed the | vessel arrived off San Fernando on the 3lst | ult. When discovered by the gunboat Pam- panga she was lying with her mose buried in the sand of the shore south of the city of San | | { | Burdette, who was engaged to open Mr. Burdette was taken RLRCO | pania General de Tobacco, which sailed & few days after the Saturnus for the same port, re- turned yesterday with the information that the | United "States gunboat Paragua refused per- | mission to her to enter the port of San Fer- | nando and ordered her to return to Manila. It is generally believed that a portion of the | crew, and perhaps some of the passengers, were | in league with the rebels and, knowing that the insurgents had a concealed battery planted there, ran the vessel ashore under the rebel | guns so as to make the looting free and easy | and the capture of the vessel and lts valuable | cargo, together with its officers, mose com- plete with little danger to themselves. A subsequent report received here states that the crew and passengers of the Saturnus were all safe and uninjured at Tarlac, the FIl ] L It was expected that the crew fully insured ag: of war. | Lively Drawn Battle. | WATERBURY, Conn., Sept. 14.—Dan | Murphy of Waterbury and Australian | Jimmy Ryan fought a twenty-round draw before the Waterbury Athletic Club. | In the second round Ryan landed a solar | plexus blow on Murphy, which caused the | latter to hang to the ropes.

In the | succeeding round Murphy did the leading, | landing frequently on the | but in almost every case Ryan with wicked righthand swings on Mur- phy’s wind.
