THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, JUNE 4, 1901. NO STEPS YET TAKEN TO REUNITE | THE MEMBERS OF THE BOOTH FAMILY Commanders of Volunteers of America and of Salvation Army Both Declare That the Breach Has Not Been Healed, and There Has Been No Pro- & posal, Secret or Otherwise, for Amalgamation of the Two Organizatio ns EW YORK, June 3.—Ballington Booth, head of the Volunteers of America, denied to-day that he was about to return to the Sai- vation Army and to be reunited with his father. The following statement is published by authorit: Ballington Booth denies most em- above all to avoid anything that might pessibly cause a controversy between the two organizati D e Union of Forces Impossible.

He has not had one line from his father since the latter left this country, nor has he had from his seven brothers and sisters, with but one excep- tion, that of a personal communication from Mrs. Booth Clibborn, nor have they taken back the bitter uncalled-for things they said against him. The government and principles of the two movements are =0 at variance that a union would be im- possible.” CLEVELAND, O., June 3.—Commander -Tucker of the Salvation Army de- red to-day that there was no truth in the report to the effect that negotiations ere in progress looking to the amalgama- tion of the Volunteers of America and the Salvation Army. 3 “Please say to the Associated Press he continued, ““that there is absolutely no proposal, either secret or otherwise, gor the amalgamation of the two move- ments.” “While we seek to carry on our own operations,” added the commander, “‘we wish tne Volunteers well and desire e Tragedy the Forerunner of a Bitter Feud Between Two Races. Special Dispatch to The Call. ss the prompt results in the ers of Calvin Hall, his three sons a aniel Yantis, the tragedy of last Friday may have been only the forerunner of an cra of blood- shed that shall convulse Modoc County for some time to come. Hall, the rene- gade white man, who took a squaw for his wife and reared half-breed sons to be We companions in thievery, was a man 3‘} g:"p influence among the Indians from whose tepees he chose a wife. The members of the tribe are enraged over Iynching, particularly as one of the , who was but a s‘;‘evsfnhof Hall, was a full-blood Indis s father hav- ing been Mrs. Hall's fi husband. While there is no danger of an outbreak of the Indians, it is quite likely that unless the Jaw avenge the crime they may seek 10 revenge themselves by ambushing and murdering those of the murderers whose ddentity they discover. Modoc County may thus see a bitter feud waged between its white and native inhabitants. The redskins are closely watching the trend of events following the lynching and make no attempt to conceal their hostility to the whites since the tragedy. Thus far little has been done toward apprehending the lynchers. It is not be- lieved the offer of a reward by Governor Gage will have the desired effect, and for. the reason that no one is likely to have the hardihood to visit Lookout and at- tempt to discover evidence that would Jead to the conviction of the gullty. ertheless, the county officials seem to be gircere in their desire to have justice donc. In order to relieve themselves of the onus of the inquiry, they have ap- pealed to Attorney General Tirey L.

Ford was re- quested yesterday by Modoc County offi- cf to appear for them before the Grand Jury on Priday, when the matter of the Tecent lynching will be investigated. The Attorney General does not expect to be able to appear in person, but will endeav- or to send a representative from his office. Beaten by Footpads. SAN JOSE, June 3.—R. D. McDonald, an aged laborer, who lives in the morthern part of the State, was robbed and so badly beaten by footpads yesterday that he may lose the sight of one eye. As he passed the bride on West Santa Clara street two men sprang upon him and relieved him of $12, all he had. The small amount en- reged the robbers, who beat him on the head with a heavy cane. The right eye was laid open. cDonald was found in an ynconscious condition by the police. RALLINGION N ‘ COMMANDERS OF THE SALVATION | AMERICA, WHO DENY THE STORY THAT THERE IS TO BE A UN- | ION OF THOSE TWO ORGANIZATIONS, = ARMY AND THE VOLUNTEERS OF reconciliation between his organization and the Salvation Army are utterly un- warranted. “It may be possible’” he says, /“that Ballington Booth and his father have be- come reconciled, but that is_wholly a personal matter and has no effect upon the religious bodies over which they ex- ercise control.” Captain Noonan says that the principles of the Salvation Army and of the Volun- teers are diametrically opposed and no union could be formed conscientiously by are formed of people who belleve the practices followed by the Salvation Army are wrong. Ballington Booth, he says, is no more than president of the organiza- tion and could take no decisive, action without submitting the question to the members. Captain Noonan says he has known Ballington Booth for many years, and a short time ago ‘he was assured that no communication had passed between father and son since the disagreement several years ago, so he is of the opinion either party. The Volunteers, he says, that the whole story is a fabrication. et e oo e ettt @ COLT-BENNNE QURTE | O LEUTIN 5N | |Dr. Rys Predicts the Early Discovery of a New El Dorado. —_— | | Special Dispatch to The Call.

He found sul- phur in abundance, but could not ship it, as that island has no harbor. At that time several seal hunters and fishermen found placer mining profitable and he was | told by other prospectors that the Aleu- | tians_contained both placer ground and gold-bearing quartz. Most of the islands hsve good harbors, which are open the | year round, a great advantage in case Dr. | Rys’ prediction comes true. | _—— | WARBURTON ON TRIAL FOR KILLING REILLY Seven Jurors Accepted as the Result of the First Day’s Pro- ceedings. SAN RAFAEL, June 3.—The trial of W. F. Warburton, charged with the murder of Matthew Reilly in this ‘city on Jan- uary 19, was commenced before Judge An- gellotti in the Superior Court here this morning. The entire day was consumed in the effort to obtain a jury. Late this afternoon only seven jurors had been ac- cepted—L. A. Lancel, Hans Juhl, Joseph Gamboni, Hugh McPhillips. Antone Law- rence, Joseph Bloom and Matthew Clark. The long confinement has told but little upon the prisoner. He sat behind his at- torneys in court to-day and did not seem to take, any more interest in the pro- ceedings. than did the ordinary spectator. The case is being prosecuted by District Attorney Mclsaac, assisted by Attorney. . H. Schooler of San Francisco, while the defense is represented by Attorneys . J. Lennon and Joseph K. Hawkins of this city. It is expected that the jury will be completed to-morrow. If this be done it is likely the case will be finished in about a week. Distinguished Gneal Coming.

For . BESIENS RATHER THAN FICE h CHURGH THIL Rev. George E. Dye Gives Up His Place as Pastor in Willows. —_—— Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, June 3.—Rev. George E. Dye has tem%ed his resignation as pastor of the Baplist church in Willows, Glenn County. This is the polite way of putting it, but it is intimated that his resignation was demanded by the church officials, and that he gave it rather than stand a threatened church trial for hav- ing acted in an improper manner with a widow_of his flock. Though a married man, Dye, it appears from the charges freely uttered at Willows and asserted by the widow’s stepson, addressed the newly bereaved church member by such endear- ing terms as “My darling,” subscribing himself “Your own Romeo,” and discreet- ly warhing her on one occasion that they were watched. Yesterday another clergyman occupied Dye’s pulpit. There had been a stormy meeting of the deacons the night before, culminating in a request for the pastor’s resignation, which he declined. The re- quest was made for the second time, cou- pled with the statement that with his re- tirement the affair would be dropped. Then Rev. Mr. Dye resigned from the - torate and the people of Willows wflfa:o longer have his sustaining hand to keep them in the narrow path of rectitude. DEPLORES DAUGHTER’S g RUNAWAY MARRIAGE Judge Jones of Stockton Unable to Reconcile Himself to the Match. STOCKTON, June 3.—Vivien Jones, who, as stated in yesterday’s Call, was hurried- ly married on Sunday in Oaklamd to James Brown, is the daughter of Superior Judge E. I Jones of this clty. She ran away from her home last Saturday to marry the man of her choice and it was the fear that the young lady’s parents would make forcible objection to the wed- ding that .caused the young couple to speed across the bay and induce County Clerk Jordan of Alameda to issue a license on_Sunday. The family of Judge Jones is_heart- broken over the affair. The Judge's daughter met Brown six months ago, Her father commanded her to have nothing to do with Brown, but the young couple maintained a clandestine correspondezee, Brown finally induced Miss Jones to run away from home and join him in San Francisco. e b Poisoned by Icecream. ANTIOCH, June 3.—Thirty persons were poiscned by eating icecream at a church soclal in Oakley Saturday night. It s supposed the vanilla flavoring in the cream caused the poisoning, None of the victims will die, it is believed, but some are not yet out of danger. ¥ EAGER 10 ViEW PSION SCENES Thousands of Siwashes Join Pilgrimage to Chilliwack. —_—— Opens on the Northern Reservation. o Special Dispatch to The Call. VANCOUVER, B. C., June 3.—The Pas- all this week, commenced at Chilliwack this morning.

Greene's superb drama ‘Nazareth” was greeted by an even larger audience than attended the initial performance. More than 2000 per- sons were! present. A special train from San Francisco reached Santa Clara at 7:15 o'clock, bringing between 500 and 600 persons. Hundreds came on earlier trains and went to San Jose after the perform- ance, local hotels being crowded. Vhen the curtain was raised, show- ing the beautiful scene of the plains of Bethlehem, every chair was filled and hundreds were standing. Ps At the conclusion of the first act, Mr. Greene was calied before the curtain and presented ‘with an elaborate floral testi- monial by the citizens of Santa Clara. It was a mammoth harp of red carna- tions, St. Joseph's lilies and ferns, red and white being the college colors. In making acknowledgment the playwright took occasion to thank the alumni stu- dent body for the creditable manner in which it interpreted his production. He was cordially received and heartily ap- plauded. v It has been decided to give a third per- formance of the passion play on Thurs- day evening, as many were unable to get seats to-night.” To-morrow will be the second day of the jubilee celebration.

The day was largely devoted to the discussion {and adopfl“?n of resolutions. The resolu- tions adopted last week by the Western Labor Union in favor of a new labor party were adopted unanimously. The resolutions committee made its report, which was adonted. The preamble of the resolutions contains | the following paragraph: We advise the toller to be ever on the alert in defense of his rights, and educate himself to protect those rights by a ‘peaceful use of the ballot, so long as the feasibility of such ‘When means will justify the end in view. not, let us be prepared to meet the enemy with the weapons of his choice, and rather spill every dron of life-giving fluld at the point of the bayonet than submit further to oppression on the part of our aggressors. The resolutions say: We are opposed to the expansion of our na- tional boundaries for the acquisition of terri- tory populated by other than the Caucasian race. We are opposed to arbitrary interference by Federal authorities in local affairs and we es- pecially object to government by injunction as a new and highly dangerous form of op- pression, by which Federal Judges in contempt of all laws of the State and rights of its citi- zens become at once legislators, judges and executors. We view with alarm the evident desire to increase the standing army. Aside from the enormous expense a large military establish ment imposes uvon the producers of the mna- tion, who are the actual taxpayers, we know from historical facts and our own experience that it is the chosen weapon of tyrants al- ready, a foe to individual rights of the cor mon people, and incompatible with free insti- | tutions. ~ Therefore we express the hope that the members of organized labor everywhere will refrain from voluntary enlistment in any department of the Federal or State military service. A graduated tax should be levied on fncome and inheritance, and a property tax should be levied on land values alone. The national banking system is de- nounced and a postal savings bank de- manded in its place, with the direct issue of all money by the Government.

We belleve the members of our organization should be as a unit on all matters that affect their interest. Therefore we would suggest that all political and economic questions be discussed freely at all meetings of local unions and that an aggressive policy of organization along these lines be pursued, realizing from past experience that it is not so much the principles you advocate as the men you elect to enact the laws and execute and interpret the same. Knowing this, we would Insist on the local unions selecting men from their own ranks whenever possible to fill these positions. The_ reservation of all public land to actual settlers is demanded, as is also the re-enactment of the Chinese exclusion law, so_enlarged as to include all Asiatic races. It was decided to engage an editor for the official paper of the federation in- stead of requiring the work of the presi- dent as at present. The Western Labor Union spent the day in discussing proposed changes in the con- stitution. They are all of a minor nature. INDUCED BY CROOKS TO FORGE A CHECK | Redlands Youyng Man Lands in San Quentin, While the Culprits Escape. SAN BERNARDINO, June 3.—Camillio Perres of Redlands was to-day sentenced by Judge Campbell to serve two and one- sialf years in San Quentin for forgery.

Donnelly the Vie- tim of a Former Em- ploye’s Rage. AR Special Dispatch to The Call. MODESTO, June 3.—Omne of the most dastardly murders ever recorded in Stan- islaus County was committed last night on the Donnelly ranch, west of Modesto. Following a trivial dispute, Frank Cebulla shot and instantly killed Edward J. Don- nelly, the proprietor of the ranch. His ‘weapon was a rifle and the bullet entered Donnelly’s right breast, passing entirely through the body. cher Donnelly formerly employed Cebulla, who is a worthless and dissipated fellow. Cebulla visited the ranch while intoxicated last night. The nature of his quarrel with Donnelly is not known, but it is believed he was ordered off the place and retaliated by shooting the rancher. Donnelly was unarmed and the killing was cold-blooded. The murdered man was 37 years of age and was reared on the ranch on which he met his death. He was a man who had the esteem of all his neighbors. After the chooting Cebulla set his rifle down and said he would go to Lagrange and surrender, but no trace of him can be found by the officers engaged in the search. Some believe he drowned himself in Tuolumne River, which is_near the place of the homicide. There is no telegraph or telephone com- munication with the scene of the tragedy. Sheriff Purvis, District Attorney Walthall and Deputy Coroner Bowker have gone to the ranch. Smelting Works Burned. MILTON, June 3.—The smelting works of the Union copper mine at Copperopo- lis were destroyed by fire yesterday. Su- perintendent Drew had been burning waste matter and sparks from the smol- dering fire ignited the works.
