The daughter remained in England with her grandmother and Mrs. Bussell reached New York a couple of days ago on her way home.

SAN JOEE, May 2.—The nominating con- vendon of the California Cured Fruit As- sociation this afterncon made nominations of tickets which shall go before the an- nual meeting of members, June 5, from which directors and officers are to bs elected. There was considerable parlia- mentary skirmishing during the forenoon to abolish the roll call, as it appeared that there was not a majority of the 3707 mem- bers present. President Bond ruled that nothing could properly come beforc the convention until the roll had been called. It took until 1:15_o’clock in the afternoon to do this At that hour recess was taken until 2 p. m. It was then an- nounced that only 360 members had re- sponded to their names, but the president ruled that he would not hold strictly to the by-laws, which eeemed to require a majority of all the members present, and that nominations could be made. All names regularly nominated, he said, would be submitted to the annual meei- i ng. President Bond, before taking his seat. gave a statement of the affairs of the assoclation, chief of which was that the packers’ company had not kept their promise to provide money to meet a divi- dend as they had voluntarily agreed to do. Further, he said that the company was claiming the commission on all the prunes in the warehouses on May 1 and that it was not entitled to this until the fruit was sold. He aid the company had also demanded tha: the prunes be re- moved and if the association had no place to put them they could he stacked out of doors. All these demands he resisted and | he was advised that they could not be en- forced under the contract. In regard to the pressing needs of the assoclation at one time for money which could not be got President Bond said he had advanced $20,000 himse!f and that the assocfation still owed him that sum, to be paid when the frult was sold. He thought the outlook good for a fair price for the fifty million pounds of prunes on hand. The president announced that an- other dividend of half a cent would be sent out for those members who had re- ceived only half a cent a pound to date. The tickets nominated are as follows: President, H. G. Bond, Santa Clara; first vice president, H. W. Meek, San Lorenzo directors—L. F. Graham of San Jose, W. Cregin of Campbell, F. M. Woocs of A. B.

NEW YORK, May 2.—The Commercial Advertiser says: Friends of E. H. Harriman assert with much confidence to-day that the syndicate of which he is the head has not lost control of the Unlon Pacific Railroad. This claim is significant, be- cause persons closely identified with'the Harri- man syndicate have repeatedly declared within the past three days that they could not tell anything about the situation. The confidence manifested by Mr. Harriman's friends to-day is based largely on the supposition that in the competitive buying of last Tuesday the Gould and Harriman interest secured enough of the Union Pacific shares to restore their holdings to the majority point. Discussing the Union Pacific situation, the Mail and Express has the following: From the current tremendous market move- ments in Union Pacific and_Atchison—big ad- vances ocourring in each to-day—it became clear that & fight {s going on between great money interests over the establishment of transconti- nental systems. It now appears that this fight centers around the plans of George J. Gould and E. H. Harri- man to establish a vast network of roads from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, and William K. Vanderbilt and the Pennsylvania Rallroad people, seeing what was up, have made up their minds to frustrate them. With the Gould and Harriman people on the one hand are said to be Kuhn, Loeb & Co., Who are identified with the Union Pacific manage- ment, while Mr. Morgan is believed to_have lent his influence to the Vanderbilt and Penn- sylvania forces. The Rockefellers, who are identified with Mr. Gould in the Southwestern deal, are said to have stood aloof from the Union Pacific incident, and to have done noth- ing which could be criticised by Mr. Morgan, with whom they are associated in many affairs. Pennsylvania Buys Atchison. Continuing, the Mail and Express sayi Following the discovery that Gould and Harri- man wanted to control the Union Pacfic, carry- ing with it the Southern Pacific, it became plain that the Missouri Pacific and Tllinols Cen- tral might be substituted for the Chicago and Northwestern as the Eastern connection of the Union Pacific, thereby greatly injuring the Van- | derbiit position in the West. In order to protect the Northwestern and New York Central William K. Vanderbilt started to accumulate a large amount of Unlon Pacific, and Gould and Harriman, learning of this, also bought enormous quantities of this stock. Meanwhile the Pennsylvania, having lost the Burlington to the Northern Pacific and Great Northern, also had to fix up its Western fences. It bought large quantities of Atchison. This road gives a through line to San Francisco out of Chicago. Good authorities assert that the Pennsylvania began buying Atchison stock many months ago, but did not think it wi necessary to get enough stock to exercise co: trol, if need be, until the Gould and Burlington deals develop. Now, it is asserted, both the New York Cen- tral and the Pennsylvania, which entered into a close alliance two vears ago. never had such need of standing shoulder to shoulder as they have to-day. It is believed they are acting in close harmony in the matter of the control cf Union Pacific and Atchison. If the ehormous buying of Unlon Pacific has secured control of that property in the interests of the Northwestern, New York Central and, perhaps, St. Paul, there is no necessity for con- trolling the Atchison, but if the Union Pacific has been lost to Gould and Harriman the heavy accumulation of Atchison to-day would indicate that that company is needed as an outlet to the Pennsylvania and Vanderbllt lines. Gould Line to Enter Pittsburg. There is another serious side to the fight, The Pennsylvania has been trying to prevent the entrance of the Gould lines into Pittsburg. A recent dispatch from that citv stated that the Wheeling and Lake Erie would not be so_ex- tended, but that the Pennsylvania would allow Mr, Gould favorable trackage rights over the Baltimore and Ohio. It is officlally stated to-day that this offer will not be accepted, but the Wheeling road will be extended into Pittsburg as rapidly as possible. This will directly benefit both the ‘Wabash and the Missouri Pacific, giving them a large steel and iron tonnage. Mr. Carnegle, before seiling out to the steel trust, made a contract to deliver a vast amount of his ton- nage, aggregating more than one million tons a year, to the Wheeling road. Mr. Carnegie was himself to build an Independent lne to tide- water, presumably Baltimore. He i& understood to have made an offer for the Western Mary- land road. Now, it is asserted, Mr. Gould in- tends to carry out some such plan in order to prepare for any fight that he may have withethe Pennsylvania and Vanderbilt people. Mr. Gould has further irritated Willlam K. Vanderbllt by planning an extension to the Wheeling road to the vicinity of Cleveland. ‘When the new link of the Wabash in Northern Indiana end Ohlo js built the Gould system wil] | have a direct line from Cleveland to Chicago, peralleling the Lake Shore all the way. Plans Made Years Ago. Mr. Gould's plans are furthered by the back- ing of Mr. Harriman and Stuyvesant Fish, who are the leading factors In the Illinois Central. The Illinols Central has a direct line from Chi- cago to Sloux City and Omaha, furnishing a connection With the Union Pacific at the latter point. Several persons recalled to-day the surprise that was expressed two years ago when the Illinots Central announced its intention to build into a. It was thought at that time that the Illinols Central, a Harriman road, would sooner or later supplant the Northwestern as the eastern outlet of the Union Pacific’s north- ern division, while the Missourl Pacific is the outlet for the Kansas division of the Union Pa- cific. It the Gould and Harriman faction win the contest for the control of the Unlon Pacific, the plans referred to two years ago wouid seem to be prophetic and it would appear that Messrs. Gould and Harriman began mapping out their great scheme a long time ago. CF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Lieutenant Gibbs of the Signal Corps Will Remain on Duty at Fort McDowell.

The opening reception, or spring exhibi- tion, of the Sketch Club took place last night at the pretty clubrooms on Califor- nia street. The occasion was a double fes- tival, a flower fete and the spring harvest of artistic effort. The club was trans- formed into a small palace of flowers, with sweet-scented arabesaues of . ha thorn, great garlands of roses and pop- ples, daisies, lilles, pinks and passion flowers in their exquisite variety. The picture exhibition is a creditable one, though it includes no particularly ambitious effort. Albertine Randall Whe lan has some charming designs, a bool plate and panel among them. Annie Frances Briggs shows some excellent water colors. Lucia K. Matthews exhib= its some of her dainty bits of Parisian life and Sophie M.

Caroline Rixford’s two portraits and a poster plc- ture are very promising works and Lilian Vesaria's water colors, as always, show a fine delicacy of color and clever han- dling.
