SIR: In reply to your telegram of date May 31, I have the honor to report: FIRST—That no case In San Francisco or California has been diagnosed a& bubonic plague by any attending physician while the victim was alive, nor by the attending physician after death. In some of the suspected cases death has occurred when no regular physician was in attendance. There have been in all only eleven suspected cases among a population of 35,000 Chinese (15,000 of whom are quarantined), and no cases among whites and other races. The examinations made after death of the bodies of the suspected cases since the alleged discovery of the disease more than three months ago fail to furnish satisiactory proof of plague. 3 SECOND—That the quarantined district contains upward of 13,000 Chinese subjects, whom are unable to support themselves by virtue of the quarantine. THIRD—That full and fair investigation has been denied the physicians of the Chinese by the city Board of Health. FOURTH—That the Chinese were forced to appeal to the courts, and then were accorded the right of investigation into the cause of death of the dead suspects. FIFTH—That since the procurement of the order of court, granting privilege to the white puy- sicians of the guarantined Chinese to visit the sick and be present and take part in autopsies had, neither the eity Board of Health nor Federal oflicers have been able to discover any bubonic plague case, dead or alive. = SIXTH—That there has been no epidemic in Chinatown. SEVENTH—That the municipal records show the proportion of deaths in Chinatown has been no greater than that of any other portion of San Francisco since the date of the discovery of the al- leged plague in Chinatown. EIGHTH—That I cannot find proof the plague alleged to be here is either infectious or con- tagious. I find no proof that any person has contracted it from another; and I further find that certain individuals who have been repeatedly exposed at autopsies and elsewhere to the alleged plague, and others who have moved about in the houses and rooms where the suspects expired, hav- 3500 ot the State of California. could have sald that those cases had oc- curred within the limits of the city and | | coynty of San Francisco or within the limits of the State of California, and | would have had equal right to quaran- tine the whole city or the State. Some- | thing more than the belief of the health | authorities, sometimes more specific as to i locality and other facts, should be set forth before this tremendous power is | conferred. i Authorities Are Read. { Authorities were read to show that the]| | fact must be established that the quar- antined person had been infected with the | disease or exposed to infection.

Mr. Maguire contended that instead of Lemsmung upon the plague question. the Supervisors had delegated Its powers to the Board of Health, and that such dele gation of power was not legal or per- missible, and was therefore null and void, The speaker argued that the ordinance of the Supervisors adopted on June 2 had not been legaily adopted and was there- fore votd. The court had not been advised in the answer as to the exact locality in which the cases of alleged bubonic plague had been found beyond the statement that they had been encountered within the ai trict quarantined.

They are awaiting, im- | patiently but quietly, the decision of the \E’nlted States Circuit Court before they take any further action. If it goes against | them it is predicted by the men who are in Chinatown every day that serious | trouble will follow. The Chinese are ail | armed, and if they ever commence rioting |in earnest bloodshed will surely result | They are only restrained now ° because | they have great confidence in the ability f thelr attorneys to break down the | quarantine lines. All depends on the out- | come of the case now in court. The quarantine is becomin daily more | 1ax_and the stream of people who come and go through the lines on permits from the Board of Heaith has Increased until t has become almost continuous. Even the people who possess permits make light of the whole situation. “Do you suppose.” sald an elderly man yesterday, as he slipped under the ropes, “that I would go into Chinatown every day and remain there all day long, return- ing at night to my family in Alameda, if I thought for a minute that there was the slightest danger? Why, there are plenty just ltke me who would not go there if there was any plague.” The citizens’ reilef committee held meeting at the Board of Trade rooms ¥ terday afternoon and decided to ex: $2000 more if necessary to continue cleansing of Chinato a en the n and in providing food for the indigent Chinese who are unable, because of the quarantine, to get outside and make a living. The commit- tee is now paying out between ' and | 3600 per day and is making provision to continue the work for another ten or twelve days, although a strong feeling pervaded the committee room yesterday that the decision of ‘the Federal will relieve them from the burden very speedily. Cars Will Run To-Day. Employes of the Sacramento and Wash- ington street lines of the Market Street Railway Company received notice from the headquarters of the company last night to be on hand and ready to operate cars as usual to-day. This is taken as an indication that word has been passed along the line from some official source that the quarantine will be lifted to-da; sufficiently, at least, to enable the tran: portation lines running through fenced-in district to resume operations. *The Sacramento and Jackson street lines have been shut Gown ever since the quarantine has been on, and there has been a lot of suffering among employes of the company in consequence. No _notice has yet been given as to when traffic will be resumed, but the order given to the men last night seems to be an indication that cars will be moving to-day.

J. S. Sweet, Mayor of Santa Rosa, is | ima.’..mn»d for delegate from the First Congressional District. Ex-Senator Fos- ter of Tehama, J. Q. White of Mendo- C nd Lewis of Sierra are also me: joned. At a late hour it was tacitly ad | mitted that Messrs. Sweet and White | would carry off the prizes. | Second District. D. W. Carmichael, the Sacramento bus- | iness man and prominent Democrat, who was selected to act as temporary secre- of the convention, is a leading can- te in the Second Congressional Dis t for the position of delegate to the | coming Democratic National Convention: It is practically conceded that Mr. Car- | michael will be chosen. That gentleman | is =0 imbued with a trrp to Kansas City that he had made up his mind to go there whether he was selected or not. Ex-Con- | gressman A. Caminetti of Jackson, Ama- | | dor County, has been mentioned as a fit | | member of the party to journey to Kan- {=as City and cast a vote for Bryan. Mr. Caminetti is too modest to make an open | fight for the horor. He is wiiling to ac- | cept it if it is handed to him. Attorney | E. W. 8. Wood of Stockton is also men- | tioned as a candidate. At a late hour | it was definitely settled that the latter would accompany Mr. Carmichael to the National Convention. Third District. Robert M. Fitzgerald of Oakland and James A. Keys of Suisun are almost cer- tain to be chosen delegates to the Na- tional Convention by the Third Congres- sional District delegates. D. H. Arnold, chairman of the Colusa County delegation, will make a bid for the honor, as will also Mackey of Solano. Fourth District. The only candidates in the Fourth Dis- trict Congressional Convention are Curtis | Hillyer, a young and promising lawyer | of San Francisco, and Charles Edelman, | at one time a resident of Los Angeles, but now a wheelhorse in the San Francisco Democracy. As these gentlemen will have no opposition they will be elected by ac- clamation. Fifth District. Jasper McDonald of San Francisco and J. H. Henry of San Jose will in all prob- aoility be the choice of the Fifth District Congressional Convention. They are the only candidate in the field and delegates of the district faver their election. Sixth District. Senator R. F. del Valle of Los Angeles and John McGoniglc of Ventura will un- doubtedly be chossn delegates by the Sixth Congressional District Convention. No opposition has been offered the gentle- men named and none is expected. Seventh District. There will be a very interesting strug- gle In the Seventh Congressional District lecting delegates to the National Con- vention. There are half a dozen candi- dates in the field and each candidate is 1 hat he has the backing of his 1 d bases his hope of victory on this fact. The election of William Mec- Fadden, chairman of the county com- mittee of Orange, is looked upon as a cer- tainty. Mr. McFadden, it is said, has been in the field for some months and has ad- vanced his interests o far that it is al- | le for him to lose. E. H. no has many friends in the hopes that, their united stand for him will result in his selection. the other candidates are George and T. J. Dofflemeyer of Bernardino, Dr. J. B. Renshaw Daggett, San Bernardino County; most impc | P. J. Tallant of Kings County, H. E. Mills and Henry A. Jastro of Bakersfield. The latter’s fight is being handled by Attorney Louis Fulkerth. Jastro claims to have the entire Kern County delegation behind | his fight. He is ambitious to represent his district in the National Conventlon. Four years ago he was defeated by one vote for the honor by Church of Fresno. Alternates at Large. Sydney Van Wyck, an attorney of San Francisco; Hugo Hornlein, proprietor of the Cafe Royal, and Dr. Charles A. Clin- ton of San Francisco are candidates for the positions of alternates at large to the convention which meets in Kansas City on July 4 —- INFORMATION FOR DELEGATES > GIVEN OUT BY MANN Where District Conventions Will Meet—Believes Democrats Will - Carry State. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, June 13.—The following advice and views expressed by Seth Mann, chair- man of the Democratic State Central Committee, will be of interest to dele- gates: “The Sacramento committee of arrangements, which has had in hand the | preparations for the reception of the Democratic State Convention, is entitled to a great deal of credit for the thorough and careful manner In which it has per- formed its dutles. The pavilion has baen prepared in such a manner as to enable speakers to be heard throughout the hall; the seating of the delegations has been very inteliigently arranged. Places of meeting for the Congressional conven- tions have also been set aside In varfous parts of the big building. Members of the First and Second Congressional dis- tricts will hold sway to the left of the spealger’s platform; the delegates of the Third District will meet in the anteroom which adjoins the entrance to the pavilion, and the Fourth, Fifth and Seventh dis- tricts have been given separate places im- mediately behind the platform, while the Sixth will be directed to hold its sessions in the main hall after an adjournment of the convention. “The credential and resolution commit- tees may meet either in the pavilion, where rooms have been reserved for them, or at the Golden Eagle Hotel, as the committees may respectively decide. It has been provided and placards have been posted announcing that delegates, upon arrival in Sacramento, shall imme- diately present their credentials to the secretary of the State Committee at its headquarters in the parlor of the Golden Eagle Hotel, and persons holding proxies are requested to pursue the same course. *“The chairman of each delegation will | be furnished with badges for his delega- | tion by the secretary of the State Com- | portion of the pavilion. These badges will entitle the the delegates’ The respective delegations, if they have not done so, should convene at once and select a chai mar. “The convention will assemble at 10 a. m. on Thursday, June 14, at the Agricul- tural Pavilion, corner of Fifteenth and M streets. It will be my pleasant duty to call the convention to order and the con- vention, no doubt, will proceed with its temporary organization, which will con- sist of the selection of a temporary chair- man and secretary and the appointment of a committee on credentials. To Instruct for «“It {s expected that there will be a fairly large attendance at the conven- tion. Reports recelved thus far lead me to believe that there will 500 or 600 dele- gates present. There seems to be no doubt that the convention will instruct jts delegatés to vote for William J. Bryan as the candidate of the Demo- cratic party for the Presidency of the United States, thus aligning itself with the column of States thus far heard from who have quite generally adopted this resolution of instruction. The delegates are all enthusiastic and confident. There is a strong sentiment generally present favoring a thorough system of organiza- tion in all of the precincts of the State, and I believe that with an enthusiastic movement in the party toward an organ- ization along these lines that the State may be carried for the Democratic party at the coming election. i gt TARPEY ASKS PHELAN ' SOME PLAIN QUESTIONS CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, June 13.—M. F. Tarpey appreci- ates the fact that D. A. Ostrom’s success cannot be accomplished except by the turning down of one of the slated four.

In order to assure himself that he was not to be exciuded to make room for Os- mittee. wearers to admission to ORSE HEARST FOR VICE PRESIDENT. trom Mr. Tarpey went to Mayor Phelan to-night and asked some plain questions. He desired particularly to know how Phelan’s friends regarded him, and there- | fore queried: “How does the San Fran- cisco delegation stand so far as I am con- cerned?” Mayor Phelan responded: “I have not delved into the matter further than to | ascertain that the San Francisco dele- gates favor White, Tarpey and myself. How it stands as regards Maguire and Ostrom I cannot say as I have not inter- ested myself. YELLOW KIS COMMISSONERS PTRAORDINARY CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, June 12.—This city is again the scene of convention excitement. The streets and hotel corridors are noisy with thelr chatter and political gossip. Empty as is the honor for which the factions are striving, the contest is none the less interesting, and here and there groups of gesticulating, enthusiastic partisans are itself to its friends. While candidates are assembling their supporters and laboring for the victory that will send them to the national convention, while representatives of the sectionalism which inevitably pre- sents itself at every Democratic conven- tion are clamoring for recognition, some- thing definite is emerging from the chaos of preparation and three figures are as- suming prominence which probably will give individuality to the entire conven- tion. These figures are not unknown to _political fame in California. One is his Honor James D. Phelan, the Mayor of San Francisco. The second is James H. Budd, ex-Governor of California, and the third is James G. Maguire, ex-Congress- man, ex-jurist and literary dilettante. Al- ready they have been dubbed “the three Jimmies, the commissioners extraordinary from the Yellow Kid of San Francisco journalism to the convention.” They are here to tell what they think and possibiy what they see of the Democratic State Convention. All of them have occupied positions of prominence in the Democracy of the State, but never before have they constituted a literary bureau as unique as it_is unparalleled. To-night they are the center of political attraction.

When the bureau was organized a seri- cus difficulty presented itself. As the people of the State know, his Homor the Mayor has the Interesting faculty of saying nothing and saying it well. Ex- Judge Maguire has on more than one oc- ! something at the wrong time. How to reconcile these peculiarities and to bring from them something sald at the right time was the problem presented to Cen- sor Budd. He was therefore unmovable in the sition he adopted. \\‘hh%llca:e courtesy he admitted the literary @bility of ex-Judge Maguire. The people of California may have forgotten the fact that Maguire has won his spurs | in the field of literature, but the experi- | ence will never be forgotten by Maguire. | "Ana the circle of protection has been drawn alro around his Honor the Mayor. | The people of San Francisco are still | tingling over the Mayor’'s recent literary triumph. He has dipped into the pool of - | lterary competition and the Phelan flag flaps to the people of San Francisco the serious fact of his victory. He is spurred o further emulation and to-night censor has labored in earnest consulta- tion with him. It is understood that he has given his promise that under no con- sideration will he accept a prize from the | Yellow Kid and if he does not the citizers of the metropolis may be reasonably sure the ! that no new official atrocity will be per- | petrated. Mavor Phelan needs no prize for s labors for the Yellow Kid. His Honor has shared the sorrows and the sadness ot his saffron master. He has felt with the little incorrigible the stings of defeat and it is no more than common justice that without price or compensation he should help, with his pen, to punish the common enemies whom he and the Kid enjoy. So his Honor will write for glory and tell the convention was not. And his Honor feels already the se- riousness of his responsibility. He stood to-night in the lobby of the Golden Eagle Hotel burfed in profound thought. He seemed not to hear the personal things | which the southern delegates were saying of him. He seemed unconscious to the murmur of antagonism that needs only an organizer to make his Honor write a most peculiar story of the convention. He was buried in the thought heap which he will deliver to the Yellow Kid. And while the Kid is waiting for the glittering thoughts of his commissioners extraordinary another difficulty has pre- sented itself. His Homor the Mayor | wants to talk to the convention. So does | ex-Governor Budd, and Maguire would | rather be politically dead than dumb. All | want to talk and all are firmly convinced that it would be political suicide to permit any members of the bureau to report what the others have said. The difficulty Is a serious one and it has been suggested that a Scotch verdict would be better than none and that Gavin McNab, friend and councilor of the bu- Teau, should be deputized to report every- thing which has a personal meaning to the Kid's commissioners. Whatever the decision may be the fact remains the commissioners of the Yellow Kid constitute to-night the center of a traction. They have overshadowed the issues of the convention, have absorbed the interest of the delegates and have in their hands the power to pose in plati- tudes before their envious friends. —_—— SCHEME TO DEPRIVE SYLVA OF HIS SEAT Fight Will Be Made On His Indict- ment for Perjury by the Grand Jury.
