Charles Wesley Reed mod- estly refrained from a long speech, as he said he would simply say what the Mayor Would say later and he did not want to steal any of his Honor's thunder. Mngor Geary was even more flery than usual. He has got out on the firing line now and says he is going to win the bat- tle as he won battles at Manila.

Max Popper, the chairman, filled in an awkward gap Wwith a dissertation on the charter and at last ‘the Mayor came. Mayor Phelan had no new ideas to of- fer. He is still the apostle of progress. the champlon of the people's rights, the defender of the municipality. Every- thing that is bad or weak In local gov- ernment is the work of his opponents. Everything good that was ever won for San Francisco was won by himself and he pledged his audience 'that he will win some more if they let him. He wants to be Mayor not for gain nor for honor, | but to serve the people. When the | Mayor had concluded the meeting ad- | Journed with three cheers for the ticket. o ENTHUSIASTIC RALLY.

Of late there have been secret gatherings attended by men of the Rainey, Crimmins and Lanigan type, who are plotting to restore the old order of things at Ingleside. The schemers believe that the public conscience is dulled and public vigilance is ‘relaxed. They fancy that men sitting in the Board of Supervisors may be persuaded or induced to view the suppression of racing at Ingleside in a manner at variance with | former views. Corrigan, the “Master of Hawthorne,” Is here taking observations and giving the schemers the benefit of his advice. While the meetings have been held in secret The Call has managed to ertain the motives and something of | the plans proposed by the conspirators. | he advocates of an open course, where pool-selling and bookmaking shall be ulti- mately tolerated, do not propose to sweep away all barriers at the first attack, but hope to gain their ends by gradual ap- proaches. Their present plan is to care- fully sound outgoing Supervisors to ascer- | tain how far they will dare go in opposi- tion to the pronounced public sentiment against the old form of racing and gam- biing at the track. The schemers believe some of the Supervisors are about ready to weaken. Reports brought in by Crimmins, Rainey and Lanigan may jus- tify this bellef in the secret circles of the schemers. An ordinance repealing the existing pro- hibition will not be recommended, as the leaders in the movement to reopen Ingle- side are convinced that such an ordinance would be vetoed by Mayor Phelan. It has been suggested, therefore, that efforts b directed to obtain support of a majority of the Board of Supervisors in favor of a | simple resolution allowin, conducted at the track. that the Mayor's races to be is_contended e for the reason that his signature would not be required to make the resolution ef- fective. The Call Is in possession of information obtained by a clos that a sufficient number of Supervisors | cannot be tempted by the golden prom- | touts to | ises of the conspirators and change their views of the situation. BURGLARS MAKE A BOLD RAID F RESIDENCES The Western Addition Suffers. —_—— A gang of burglars committed whole- sale burglaries in the fashionable pre- cincts of the Western Addition last night. | Within two hours four residences were broken Into and looted, and in three cases the thieves escaped with their booty and | in each case they succeeded in getting | without being seen. The police | were notified immediately by telephone to the Central station, but before the detec- tives arrived the house-breakers were op- erating in other portions of the district. They first broke into the residence of | Mrs. S. H. Proctor at 1917 Webster street. Mrs. Proctor was visiting friends, and the | burglars forced the front door open with a “jimmy.” They entered the bedrooms and carried off clothing, jewelry and other valuables. The richest haul was made at the residence of Attorney Barclay Henley, 2131 Green street. Here they succeeded in carrying off al- most a sackful of valuablé silverware from the dining room, and jewelry, dla- monds and other valuables from Mr. Henley's slee%mg apartments. The burg- lars opened the front door with skeleton e lawyer was out at the time, and it is presumed that the house-breakers had a lookout on the other side of the street to notify them when the oppor- tunity to ‘“‘touch off” the residence was ripe. Henley returned shortly after the burglars left and he immedlately reported the matter to police headquarters. While the police were looking over Mr. Henley's residence for a clew the daring thieves were busily engaged glymg their trade in a residence at 2044 Jones street, where they were also successful in getting away with valuable jewelry. Their last effort was at the home of E. A. Maxfleld, at 1314 Washington street, and here they met with defeat. Mrs. Maxfield had just rétired when she was awakened by footsteps in the front yard. By the time burglars opened a window at the rear of the place she was moving about with a light, thus frightening them off. The police visited Mrs. Maxfleld's house shortly after midnight hoping to FREUD’S REGISTRATION. J. Richard Freud called at the Regis- rar's office yesterday to explain the rea- street Hammam Baths. When the deputy Registrars called at the baths to make inquiries about Mr. Freud they were In- formed that he did not reside there. The fact that he resided at the baths was known to one of the proprietors only, and after making an_examination Regis- trar Steppacher decided that Mr. Freud was entitled to register from there. The following letter is self-explanatory: CITY HALL, SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2. J. Richard Freud El?.

The State Prison Directors are _carcfull)' looking over the fleld to find a Warden to fill the vacancy at the Folsom prison caused by the death of Charles Aull. Among the men considered was Thomas Cunningham of San Joaquin, whose ex- tended and able services as Sheriff of that county are recognized throughout the State. The Directors, after mature delib- eration, have reached the conclusion that the new Warden at Folsom should be a man in the prime of life, with an abun- dance of physical vitality and great per- 1 energy. *Recently &Y number of prominent men— Democrats and Republicans—held a con- ference and decided to ask Robert Mec- Killican of Alameda County to become a candidate. The suggestion of Mr, McKil- fcan's name was received with favor by several of the State Prison Directors, as they recognized in him a man lyosx!esslng the qualifications that rendered the late Warden Aull so efficient and acceptable. When Mr. McKillican was sounded to as- certain if he would serve if elected he said to his friends that he was not a can- didate and was not seeking the office, yet if the Prison Directors should regard him as a man whose services were needed and should offer him the position he would accept the office. It is known that support of many earnest Democrats and Republicans. He made an excellent rec- ord as Sheriff of Alameda County, win- ning the confldence and respect of lead- ing men in poth political parties. In the political arena he is known as a straight emocrat. ma!hle) Prison Directors find it no easy task to discover the material for a first-class Warden. The man at the immediate head of prison affairs should possess a number of qualifications. - He should be firm, brave, vigilant, patient and just. Strength of character should be united with vigor of mind and body. Those about him and around him are constantly on the alert to detect a weak place in his make-up. In many respects Charles Aull was the ideal Warden. Men filling subordinate places had respect for his judgment and anthority and convicts knew that he was not a weakling. Mr. McKillican is a strong. even-tempered, well-balanced man of sound judgment, resolute in purpose, but withal patient and kind. SUCCESSFUL BURGLARS. Two daring burglars entered the resi- dence of Louis Ferrea at 1638 San Jose avenue last Sunday night, and succeeded in making quite a rich haul of diamonds, jewelry and cash. The thieves effected an entrance to the Ferrea premises by rying open a window at the rear of the gcusa 'he_doors Inside the house were all unlocked, 80 the housebreakers had frec access to every room from _ the kitchen to the front parlor.

Per- rin of Alameda, who just one month ago to-day led Mrs. Sarah Johnson to the| altar at San Leandro’as his bride, has come to the sad realization that when age meets age in matrimony then comes the tug of war with more attending sorrows than aged bachelorhood in all its loneli- ness. \ When Perrin married Mrs. Johnson on Sunday, September 24, he had just passed his seventieth birthday anniversary, and the ancient bride was but six years his junior, He had previously occupied com- fortable apartments in an Alameda home, while she owned a cozy cottage at San Leandro, so that companionship was rather inviting to them in their lonely singleness, and many friends extended congratulations upon the supposed good fortune of the two souls meeting to enjoy in_comfort their declining years. But when the aged groom abandoned his bachelor quarters for the homestead of his bride at San Leandro, peace and happiness soon flew away in opposite directions, for with the responsibilities that rest upon a husband’s shoulders came the necessary drag upon his purse fof the purchase of many necessary household articles and kitchen utensils, and, if the story now told by some of thelr friends be true, Mr. Perrin found that while he had looked upon matrimony as an cpportunity to save his dollars more than formerly, Mrs. Perrin had looked upon 1t in the same light from her side, and further, if reports be true, he did not relish the idea of spending his money and his wife saving hers. A discussion of finances waxed into a heated debate and finally Perrin taook his clothes and left, and now Perrin resides in Oakland, whild | his bride of a month is ensconced 'in her Jonely cottage meditating over the next step to take in her troubles. ——————— Cupid Rushing Business.
