Syt Teller Offers Amendment Striking Out Prohibition Against Forti- fication of the Canal When Completed. AN S WASHINGTON, Deec. 7.—No business of | importance was transacted by the Senate in open session. Practically the entire legislative day was consumed by THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1900 ACCUSATIONS OF FRAUD ARE HURLED BY EXCITED LONDON SHAREHOLDERS Hammond’s Expose of the Ore Shortage in a Colorado Mine Causes Dupes to Vent Their Indignation. —_— ONDON, Dec. 7.—The Stratton's Independence mine shareholders to-day passed a vote of no confi- dence in the board of directors | after one of the stormiest city meetings on record. The directors were hiseed and hooted and the words “scan- dalous™ and “disgraceful” and accusations of fraud were huried broadcast. The Earl | of Chesterfield, who phesided, received a | cablegram from John Hays Hammond, | the American engineer, asking him to an- nounce to the meeting that Mr. Ham- mond’'s connection with the mine dated an executive session. The developments In the executive ses- sion in connection with the Hay-Paunce- fote treaty were: An agreement on the part of the Sen- ate to vote on the amendment offered by the Committee on Foreign Relations, pro- viding for the policing of the canal, on | next Thursday at 3 o'clock. An amendment offered by Senator Tei- ler striking out the treaty nst the fortification of the Nicaragua caral when constructed. The conclusion of Senator speech A speech by Senator Teller in opposi- tion to the treaty. An agreement mittee amendment was secured soon af- ter the executiyve session began. It was reached by unanimous consent at a re- quest made by Senator Lodge. Senator Lodge did not ask to have a late fixed for a vote on the treaty ftself, eving that the fate of the measure will be determined by the result of the vote on the amendment. nator Teller spoke for about two hours, giving notice of his amendment at the beginning of his address. The amend- ment suggested relates to section 7 of article 2 of the treaty. As that section stands it reads ‘as follows: Morgan's manding the canal or the waters adjacent. The United StAtes, however, shall be at liberty to maintain such military police aleng the canal as may protect it against lawlessness and dis- order.” The Colorado Senator’s amendment pro- vides for the striking out of the first sertence of this provision and for verbal changes in the remaining portion, making it_read as follows: ‘The United States shall be at liberty to maintain such military canal as may be necessar: nst lawlessness and disorder. Mr. Teller contended that if the United tates desired to build the canal it should proceed to do so without trying to secure the ent of Great Britain. He said that opinion of Secretary Hay that the abrogation of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty was necessary as a preceding per- formance after all was only the opinion of one man; then he ‘}uolod from public ments in_which former Secretaries of State had differed fn their opinions in this respect to protect it slwer treaty. He quoted Secre- ris as sayin that the guaran- tee of neutrality is of thing, while the question is unsettled, and quite another when the canal shall be opened to the intcrests, ambition and_cupidity of the commercial nations, and is occupled by populations of foreign allegiance and dis- cordant habits. : PROGRESSIVE EUCHRE FOR SWEET CHARITY Eight Hundred Society Women Play Cards at Sherry’s for Army and Navy Society. NEW YOFK, Dec. 7.—Eight hundred women sat this afternoon in the baliroom at Sherry/s and played progressive eu- chre for two_hours under the auspices of the Army and Navy Society, which cares for disabled volunteers and their families. In addition to the players there were sev- eral hundred spectators. Playing began at 3 o’clock and continued for two hours. There were less than a_score of men present, and most of them disappeared to- ward the close of the day. General Egbert L. Viele, president of the soclety, held his ground, however, and afterward made a speech, in which’ he expreased his appre- clation of the efforts of the various com- mittees. On the platform were tempting- ly displayed seventy-four prizes, which in- cluded a piano, clocks, hats, plants, bric- | a-brac and all varieties of fancy work. When the distribution of prizes was an- nounced the players, in their eagerness to be in at the death, cr?wded upon the plat- form. General Viele found it necessary to ask those’on the platform to step down, as he feared it might give way beneath their weight. The crowd, however, would not budge. Then the bugle sounded through the hall and Mrs. Richard Henry Savage made an address which effectually cleared the stage. Mrs. M. L. Botay was then awarded the first prize, an upright piano; the second, an oil painting, fell to Mrs. Gourard. —_— WARSHIPS SUDDENLY ORDERED SOUTHWARD Towa and Philadelphia to Proceed to the Isthmus Without Delay. SAN DIEGO, Dec. 7.—Peremptory orders from Washington will start the battleship Iowa and the cruiser Philadel- phia to the south to-morrow afternoon at 5 o'clock. They were not going until Mon- day and the Farragut w: to go with them. SVih the peremptory orders to get out the two will leave the Farragut to come later, after slop;mg here for coal. The vessels will spend about two weeks at Magdalena Bay at the annual target practice, and the cruiser Philadelphia will then go south to Acapulco and a_week Lnu-r to Acajutla, the or. The Farragut will return to this | port from Magdalena Bay and the Towa will start back from Acajutla in time to reach here by the 2th of the month. Ad- miral Casey will be here by that time to receive the command of the Pacific squadron_on the retirement of Admiral Kautz. The cruiser Philadelphia will re- celve further orders from Washington at Acajutia. - BRILLIANT METEO PASSES OVER DENVER Ball of Fire Almost as Brilliant as the Sun Visible in the Sky. DENVER, Dec. 7.—One of the most bril- liant meteors which has ever been seen in Denver passed across the sky to the west this afternoon at 3:15 o'clock. The phenomenon was seen by several persons in the streets and students in the Chamberlain University in University Park. The huge ball of fire was almost as bright as the sun, which was then shining In a cloudiess sky, so that if the meteor had passed at night the whole of the heavens would ha en illuminated. Although of tremendous size the meteor passed without nolse so that it must have been at a very great height. e Nominations by_!ruident. WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.—The President to-day sent the following nominations to the Senate: Colonel J. F. Weston, assist- ant commissary general of subsistence, to be commissary neral of subsi-tence, with rank of gadier general; Captain Frank B. McKenna, Forty-seventh Infan- try, U. §. V.

Ivanschoff and Radoslavoff, is regarded in political circles here as very serfous and a very important event. The Cabinet and the Sobranje are in such per- | fect harmony that it séems as if there is nothing left for the Prince but to estab- lish a military dictatorship under his fa- | vorite, General Patrikoff, as the Sobranje is very unlikely to vote the budget for any new ministry. The Prince is far from be- ing popular with his subjects, and as M.

It is eaid that M. Radoslavoff demanded 120,000 fr: "8 comm. cn on the contracts for new hartor works. This money, in- stead of being sent to the Minister, was sent to Prince Ferdinand. Again, one of the chief Government officfals under M. Radoslavoff recelved 200,000 francs as a bribe for ordering a number of rallway Jocomotiv: in Brunswick. When the loco- motives arrived they were found to be completely useless. Murderer Is Beheaded. A speclal from Berlin says: August Goenczi, the Hungarian who murdered a wealthy widow named Schulz and her daughter here in 1897, was beheaded this morning in the prison of Ploetsenze. The murder was an atrocious one and was committed ir the center of Berlin. The murderer was ultimately traced to Brazil through a pet dog and was arrested at 4 + e — OLEOMARGHRINE BILL PASSES Introduced by Repre- . sentative Grout. — Increases the Tax on the Product When Colored to Imitate Butter and Reduces It on Un- colored Articl~. e e ¢ay passed the; Grout oleomargarine by a vote of 196 to 9. The substitute of- fered by the minority of the Committ cn Agriculture, which imposed addition: restrictions on the sale of oleomargarine to prevent its fraudulent sale and increased the penalties for vielations was defeated by a vote of 113 to 178. The bill as passed makes all articles known as oleomargarine, butterine, imi- tation butter or imitation cheese trans- | purted into any State or Territory r‘wr‘ consumption or sale subject to the police | power of such State or Territory, but p | vents any State or Territory from forbid- ding the transportation or sale of ruch | product when produced or sold free from | coloration in imitation of butter. The bill increases the tax on oleomargarine col ored In Imitation of butter from 2 to 10 cents per pound and decreases the.tax on oleomargarine uncolored from 2 cents 19 & quarter of a cent per pound. A long and interesting debate preceded the vote, in the course of which those | who favored the Grout bill claimed the 2dditional tax on colgred oleoma in was the only effectivée remedy for pi venting fraud upon the public, while those who opposed it contended that fraud | would be prevented by the substitute and that the real purpose of the Grout bill | was to destroy the oleomargarine indus- try. Chairman Payne of the Ways and Committee reported the war revenue r duction bill. He gave notice that he would | call up the bill after the disposition of the legisiative appropriation bill, prab- ably on Tuesday.

Copyright, 1900, by the Herald Pub- lishing Company. LONDON, Dec. 7.—Carl Johnston is amused by reports cabled from New York that he had married Miss Neustetter and gone with his bride to Cape Nome. The New York correspondent of one of the London papers gave the news as an after- noon dinner announcement by the Duke of Manchester at the Waldorf-Astoria. The Duke ought to have known differ- ently, for he and Mr. Johnston were both at the Carlton Hotel only a fortnight ago. Johnston married some weeks ago, not the lady mentioned in the dispatches, but Miss Lulu Birdsall, who is well known to many New York men about town. Mr. | Johnston Is no nearer Care Nome than | London, where he is devoting his time to th% \;ery honorable occupation of making a living. NE\\FYORK, Dec. 7.—Carl Johnston, or “Carie”” as he is famillarly known, first became well known in New York a year ago, when he accompanied the Duke of Manchester here as his private secretary. It was reported that Johnston was to wed a wealthy American girl. He denled this, however, and said he was going to Cape Nome, displaying his railway and steamer tickets to prove it. s His journey was interrupted by a cable- am from Lady Boyer, wife of Sir eorge Boyer, formerly Miss Ethel Ack- lom of California, conveying the informa- tion that she had been sued for divorce and hé named as co-respondent. John- ston returned to England and made strenuous denial of wrong doing, but the divorce was granted early last month.

N The Secretary’s Endorsement. OsugosH, Wis., Sept. 22, 1900. WARNER's SAFE CURE Co., Rochester, N. V. Gentlemen :—Eight years ago I suffered greatly with kidney trouble. I consulted several physicians but their medicines did me no good. A friend of mine in the drug business suggested that I try Warmer’s Safe Cure. I fol- lowed the suggestion and after using a couple of bottles I noticed a slight improvement. I continued its use for about eighteen months and am haelapy to say that it completely cured me. I have waited several years be- fore giving this testimonial in order to see if my cure was permanent. I now believe it is. Yours truly, 2 Secretary “Oshkosh Times.” W. C. JENKINS. 1
