A special train of four | cars, three day coaches and the Pullman, Castille, left the Oakland mole at 4 | o’clock in the afternoon and it is doubt- | ful if a jollier lot ever assembled on one | | train. ~ "The Pullman was chartered | “flneclnlly by Nobles Charles Goodall, J. | H.

Martin, who for the occasion had or- | | ganized themselves into the “Wish-It- | Was-Otherwise Club.” Why this name | was adopted is made apparent on the limited number of invitations printed in blue and gold and issued to the ladies. This sets forth in bold letters: ‘“Ladies not allowed to visit Sacramento, but you are invited to attend a ladies’ reception given by the ‘Wish-It-Was-Otherwise Club’ at the Oakand mole Saturday, ch 24, 1900, ng San Francisco at 0 p. m. and accompanying the A.

While awaiting the departure of the train the nobles, through their dusky servitors, brought from the wilds of Araby, served the ladies with a dell- cate collation, cakes, refreshments, such as Shriners only use at the festal board. The ladies in return nobles up to the point of debarkation with music and songs. At Sixteenth street there was sorrow at parting, but all the ladles wished the Shriners a pleasant Journey and an enjoyable time on the hot sands at the Capitol. ALL EUROPE IN LINE FOR THE “OPEN DOOR” Special Dispatch to The Call. ‘WASHINGTON, March 24.—Beyond as- certaining from foreign governments whether they would have any objection to the publication of the texts of their notes relative to the protection of Ameri- can treaty rights in spheres of influence possessed by them in China, the State Department has completed the ‘“open door”” negotiations and stands ady to answer Cummings’ resolution, which was adopted by the House of Representatives to-day. The department is entirely satis- fled with the result of the negotiations, and it is expected that the President will take advantage of the transmission of the documents to Congress to point out the eat value whic] will accrue to the United States by the establishment of the “open door” for American goods. he assurances recefved are regarded b the administration as very liberal indeed. Great Britaln gives the United States the fullest guarantee; Germany points to Kiaochau, which is an_open port, as to what she has done and proposes to do; | Russia refers to Talienwan, also open, as to her policy, 2and France asserts that | she does not récognize spheres of influ- | ence. Japan is naturally in favor of the establishment and maintenance of the “open door,” and Italy has necessarily | tollowed thé lead of the other Eur powers, Bo far as China is concerned, the authorities say its views in the matter are of no importance, as the negotiations have not been condicted with her, but with other powers.

D ——— President Authorized to Appoint a Commission to Investigate Trade in the Orient. F o A ‘WASHINGTON, March 2—For a few:| minutes to-day surprise, bordering almost on consternation In some quarters, was created by a request by Foraker that the Porto Rican government bill be recom- mitted to the Porto Rican committee. The request precipitated a lively colloquy, but it finally was developed that the bill For- aker wanted recommitted was the govern- ment measure now on the calendar, and not the unfinished business. During the elucidation of his request, however, For- aker plainly indicated that it was his pur- pose to separate the bills and press the Porto Rican tariff bill to an early vote, his desire being to have the vote taken not later than next Thursday. Foraker explained that he desired to have the bill recommitted so that the com- mittee could place upon it certain amend- ments already agreed to by the Senate in another bill. After some discussion the request of Foraker that the bill be recom- mitted was agreed to by the Senate. To Extend American Commerce A measure was gused providing for the appointment by the President of a com- mission to investigate the trade and com- merce of the Orient with a view to_the extension of American commerce. This bill aroused some debate. Berry of Ar- kansas registered his protest against the measure, his opinion being that too many commissions were being created. Cock- rell of Missouri opposed the measure and stated the position of the Senate minority on legislation. “The Republican party is In absolute control,” he sald, ‘‘and we on this side of the chamber are powerless to prevent the enactment of any legislation coming from the Republican party and deemed neces- sary by it. I will not antagonize this bill, although I do not agree with it in princi- ple. 1 want it understood now, and un- Leibold, John Barneson, E. P. Hulme and ' derstood distinctly, that hereafter absolute responsibility must rest upon the Repub- licans for the passage of all resolutions and bills.” Gallinger of New Hampshire supported the bill, saying the President had strongly recommended its passage. Germany had already sent commissions to the Orient to | investigate trade and commerce. He said it was now proposed to send this com- mission to China, Japan and other Ori- | ental countries with a view to ascertain- ing whether Increased markets could not | be found there for the products of Ameri- | can farms, milis and workshops. | “Hoar of Massachusetts opposed the not invited.

Bacon of Georgia supported the measure. Alaskan Code Bill Called Up. | An effort was made by Carter to secure unanimous consent for the consideration of the Alaskan code bill. He made a strong appeal for the relief of the people of Alaska. He sald he made his state- | ment in order to shift the responsibility | for the measure from his shouledrs to the Senate. Cockrell objected to the' arrange- ment proposed by Carter, but promised 1o assfst In the passage of the measure when it was before the Senate in a proper way. After a sharp colloguy between Carter and _Cockrell the former gave notice that he would call up the matter | again on Monday. he closing hours of the session were devoted to the consideration of a resolu- | tion accepting from the State of Indiana a statue of Oliver P. Morton. Fitting and eloquent tributes were paid to the mem- ory of Mr. Morton by Fairbanks of In- diana, Allison of Iowa and Beveridge of Indiana. STRANGE LAKES IN PERU. Instead of Surface Outlets They Have Maelstroms That Swallow Boats From Crucero Alto, the highest town in the world, the Southern Railroad of Peru drops down Into the Lagunillas. or lake region of the Cordilleras, where, 14,250 feet | above the sea, Is a group of large lakes of | Very cold, pure water, without inlet or outlet. They recelve the drainage of the surrounding_hills and conceal it some- | where, but there is no visible means of its escape. A fringe of ice forms around the edges of the lake every night e year round; yet they contain an excellent va- caught near the shore and sold at Puna and in other neighboring towns. The two largest lakes, Saracocha and Cachipas- cana, with several smaller ones in the same neighborhood, are owned by the family of Mr. Romana of Arequipa, who has just beeen elected President of Peru. He owns immense tracts of land in this locality, with thousands of sheep, cattle, llamas, alpacas and vicunas, which are herded upon it. A_curfous phenomenon about the lakes is that they keep at the same level all the time, regardless of the dry and rainy sea- | sons. No amount of rain will make any difference with their depth, which, how- ever, in the center is unknown. And this adds to the awe and mystery with which they are regarded by the Indlans. There are no boats upon the lakes, ex- cept a few small balas, or rafts, made of bundles of straw, which keep very close to the shore, for fear of being drawn into whirlpools that are said to exist in the center. There is some foundation for this fear, for only two or three years ago a balsa containing flve men disapj ed in the darkness and was never heard of et e —— ‘ADVERTISEMENTS, THE FEAR OF HUMBUG.

He said he saw a man named Blakeman in Louisville. Blakeman and John Powers had a conversation. Counsel for the defense strongly objected to this line of examination and the com- monwealth withdrew it and announced that it was through with the witness. Golden, who was very weak from his hemorrhage, requested a few minutes’ rest, and he was accordingly taken out by a Deputy Sheriff. Golden's _iliness proved more serious than at first thought, and after half an hour’s delay adjournment was taken until 10 a. m. Monday.

WASHINGTON, March 24.—It was stat- ed authoritatively to-day that the visit to Washington of Kentucky Republicans has not caused the administration to change the policy it has settled upon re- garding the whole Kentucky controversy. The members of the committee had pre- sented to_the War Department the fact that the Beckham faction had armed its so-called militia forces with rifles and equipments belonging to the United States Government. It is not stated that the ‘War Department requested the delivery of these arms carried by the Beckham men. but that fact was laid before the adminis- tration to be considered in connection with the whole case. No action was tak- en, however, looking to interfere by the national Government In the controversy, even on the basis of a demand for the re- turn of the United States arms, and it is stated no action will be taken.
