Judge Mogan performed a marriage cer- emony yesterday, the contracting parties being Charles ¥. Reynolds, a restaurant steward, and Daisy Etta Brown, a girl 18 vears of age, living at 535 Stevenson treet. The girl had been arrested for vagrancy and Reynolds agreed to marry her rather than see her sent to jafl. She is the girl who caused a sensation about a year ago by leaving her skirt and jacket in" Golden Gate Park while she donned bloomers to go bicyele riding.

Quiet Reigns at Barcelona, but the Situation Is Grave. MADRID, May 9.—An enormous crowd of people participated in yesterday’s riot- ing at Barcelona. The rioters endeavored to stop work in the factories, which ac- tion resulted in a collision with the troops. A number of soldiers are among the wounded. Over a hundred arrests of riot- ers, soclalists and extreme Catalinists heve been made. Twenty-one notorious anarchists, including Chiefs Bofarull and Foncuberta, have been confined on board the warship Pelayo. General Weyler, Minister of War, has telegraphed to the captain general af Barcelona, “You will reply by arms to every cry of ‘Death to Spain.’” The latest dispatches to-day say that order has been restored. TToops occupy the suburbs of Barcelona, where the ma- jority of the factories are sltuated, and work has been resumed. The Cabinet has decided that all the agitators arrested are to be tried by court-martial. The foreign anarchists wiil be_expelled from the country. The Government will bresent to the Cortes bills in the interest of the working classes; but there will be no compromise with thé Catalinists of separatist ten- dencies. HENDAYE, France, May 9.—Further | advices from Barcelona. Spain, show that more persons were killed and many wounded there yesterday. The situation is grave. The garrison numbers 600 men. Advices from Bilbao say there is great agitation in the mining region. L e e S e e e S T ) TOBACCO MEN OPPOSE AAIGE Argument on Ratings in Classification Committee. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. DEL MONTE, May 9.—The Western ! Classification Committee, which began its labors here yesterday, continued in ses- sion to-day and accomplished considera- ble. The docket shows 400 subjects to be considered, but many of them are of such minor importance that they are quickly jand easily settied. Most of the questions likely to cause prolonged discussion have been by common consent of the membersl deferred to the last and will come up for consideration tc-morrow. A peculiarity of the deliberations of the committee is that practically none of fts actions is consiGered final until the close of the entire meeting, and much done to- day is very liable to be undone to-morrow. Several reprezentatives of Eastern man- ufactories addressed the | day. Messrs. Keane of Chicago and We. man of New York representing the Amer can Tobacco Company, who appeared yes+ | terday in opposition to a proposed "ad- | vance in the rating of smoking tobacc | speaking again upon that question. F. W Maxwell of the St. Joseph, Mo., Commer- | cial Club and John Adams of th ich- “mnnd, Va., Tobacco Sheep Dip C(elmnp;:rrlly |any of these subjects w: also addressed the committee, advocating a proposed reduction in the ratings, re- | spectively, of millinery and canned goods | and tobacco sheep dip. No action upon | as take the day. Redurtus Tt is believed by the members that there | will be no change in the present rating of | smoking tobacco and probably none in that of canned goods. The matter of a change in cooperage ratings was dls- | cussed and referred to a committee, to be | reported on at the next regular méeting | of the classification committee. The pro- | posed modification of the rules governing ratings on mixed carloads was also pre- spnted to-day but was considered only in part. Probably the most important action of the day, because it was final. was the ad- mission to membership in the committee of the Burlington and Northwestern Rail- road and the choice of St. Louis as the next place of meeting. The proposed change in the time of meetings was acted upon favorably, the time being changed from the first Tuesday in May and No- vember of each year to the second Tues- day in January ‘and April of each year. The application of the Davenport, Rock Island and Northwestern Railroad for membership in the committee was pre- sented to-day, but owing to the recent change in the management of the road the committee deemed it best to defer ac- tion until its next regular mee!l:sn At 5:30 o’clock the committee adjourned, to convene again at 2 p. m. to-morrow, at which time it is hoped- to conclude the business on hand. The recess to-morrow morning is taken to enable the traffic of- ficlals to take the famous seventeen-mile drive and see the sights of Old Monterey and its environments before their de- parture Saturday morning. LEAVES STANFORD EARLY AT PRESIDENT’S REQUEST Professor Arthur Lovejoy Is Asked to Cease His Teachings at the University. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, May ).—At the request of President Jordan Arthur O. Lovejoy, the associate professor of phi- losophy, who recenily resigned his posi- tlon on account of the Ross-Howard af- fair, ceased teaching at Stanford yester- day. Though no statement concerning the reasons for the unexpected request wonld be issued from the president’s of- fice, it is evident that the relation b tween the pro-Ross element and the uni- Versity authoritics 1s very strained. Only two more weeks of the present semecster remained for Professor Lovejoy to teach, but it was considered for the best interests of all concerned that he go at once. The fact that Dr. Jordan reap- pointed Professor H. B. Lathrop for but one year more is further evidence that the university authorities are determined to thoroughly harmonize the facuity in the near future. WILL QUARRY MARBLE ON A NORTHERN ISLAND Eastern Capitalists Invest One Hun- dred Thousand Dollars and Will Send Material Here.

Official reports from various sections of Alaska to the effect that smallpox exists | pending an and is rapidly spreading made such a step necessary. JOHN I.

SABIN, president of the Pacific phone States Telegraph and Tele- Company, has entered upon his duties in a larger field of ac- tivity as the manager of the Chi- cago system been promot: Coast line to by the transfer Francisco and 8pokane to Chicago. Sabin receives a salary of of telephones. There have jons all along the Pacific fill the places made vacant of experts from San Mr. $35,000 per an- num from the Chicago company. He also retaing the presidency of the Pacific States company, receiving from the lat- ter corporation $25,000 per annum. His i +* compensation is, therefore, $60,000 a year. He was not inclined to accept new duties and extra work when the proposition to take hold in Chicago was first presented | to him. His personal inclinations tended | toward respite from work. Every time he declined to entertain negotiations for leaving San Francisco the Chicago rep- resentatives raised the salary figure until it reached a limit that constrained him to accept for self-defense. ‘When it is considered that there has been a tendency of late to bring to San | Francisco and other cities of the Pacific | Coast expert men from the East to fill | the leading railway positions here, special significance is given to the fact that Chi- cago sent West for experts in the field of telephone management. It is regarded as an acceptance of coast stiperiority in | at least one important branch of public utility. The Chicago territory, lines over which Mr. Sabin has direc- tion. embraces a population of 13,000,000 people. Yet the number of telephones in use on the 1st of January last hardly ex- ceeded the number used by the Pacific Coast territory, which contains only 2,500,000 people. Since the engagement of Mr. Sabin to direct the management of the system in Chicago the stock of the c.mpany whose management he has just taken has ad- vanced several points. The story goes that holders of the stock of the Pacifio Company have made investments in Chi- cago stock.

The Champion Proves Him- self the Right Third Man in Arena. Terrible Terry McGovern refereed a four-round slugging match last night at the San Franeisco Athletic Club and fur- nished as much excitement for the 1500 sweltering spectators as the contestants themselves. He doffed his coat and dis- closed a shirt that added a few degrees to the atmosphere, called the heavy punch- ers together and instructed them to fight likke gentlemen. Terry's advice was for- gotten as soon as the gong sounded, and the sluggers fought like cats on a back- yard fe . McGovern yelled to them to “break,” “get back,” “whoa’” and used a few other choice expressions, but Magee and “Soldier” Ike Allen held on Hke brothers. Terry kept them fighting dur- ing the four rounds, and in the opinion of every cne he did more work than the two together. His decision in favor of Magee ‘was a fair one. It was a night of heavy battling. The opening bout, between Joe Hil and “Jockey” Bennett, was the best of the night. Hill won in the last round by using some heavy rights. “Billy” Snailham fought a la McGovern and sent “Kid" Parker to the land of nod with a left swing on the chin. Frank McConnell, the clever bantam of the Olympic Club, en- tered the ring under the name of Jones and surprised a stockily bullt youth named Ford by knocking him down and out in less than twenty seconds’ of fight- ing. When it was all over it was discov- ered that Jones was a ‘“ringer,” and the Amateur Athletle Association 11 inves- tigate his conduvct. “Young Kid" McFad- den had all the better of his bout with E. C. Edwards and would have won hand- ily had he not fouled his man. Referee Greggains decided against him and the crowd applauded the decision. “Bill"” Stewart landed a heavy right on “Billy"” McDonald’s jaw In the first round. and it looked very bad for the latter. He | showed true grit, however, and returned to the fray and eventually won out by well directed punches in Stewart’s mid- section. The polce stopped the bout in the third round, as Stewart was bleeding badly from a cut over the left eye. Worthington played steeple- chase with “Young Moffatt” and won by “Reddy” ing cold feet, and therefore did not put in an appearance. ‘‘Nobby” Otts, who was to have battled with Pete Coleman, allas Magee, was charged with the same af- fiiction, but Mr. Otts indignantly denied it in _a speech from the top row of the bleachers. NEW CHALLENGER DAMAGED IN A HEAVY SQUALL Forced to Abandon Contest With Shamrock I and Return to Southampton. SOUTHAMPTON, May 9.—The sixty- mile racing trial of the Shamrock I and the Shamrock IT from Southampton to Weymouth to-day was suddenly termin- ated off the Needles by a bad squall, dur- ing which the gaff topsail yard of the | new challenger was carried away and her gaff crumpled up. She was forced to abandon her contest and returned to Southampton for repairs. The accident was primarily due to the | carrving away of a heavy backstay, a block of which fell and struck the deck at Sir Thomas Liptun's feet. Had the | block fallen a foot nearer Sir Thomas | he probably would have been killed. | ~ The Shamrock IT proved herself wonder- | fully well able to stand up to her can- | | vas. The challenger was in the lead over the Shamrock I by two minutes and fif- | teen seconds when a thick black thunder equall came driving off the Hampshire coast and the two yachts were soon rac- ing along with their lee ralls hidden. The squall blew at the rate of about twenty | knots an hour and the steamer Erin, do- ing a good thirteen knots, was unable to | keep up with the racers. In this afternoon’s trial the challenger | sailed twelve miles in one hour and ten minutes. It is expected that the trial race will take place next Saturday.
