The Primary League | Mesa Grande Fiesta In- cludes Sensational Features. il Special Diepatch to The Call. SAN DIEGO, Aug. 11.—Two marriages, two deaths from natural causes and one an chot. These were the prinicpal events t the Mesa Grande fiesta. The Indians nd some dissolute Mexicans and Ameri- cans had everything their own way during this year's flesta, of which the principal ay was August 4, “El Dia de San Do- o. that day the mothers bring thelir to be baptized by the padre, and ful swalns lead still more bashful ens to the matrimonial altar.

A friend, La Borio Peg- no, saw the movement and instantly grabbed the pistol, which was acidentally discharged. Pegno received a painful wound. The ball went through the fleshy part of the hand and penetrated his thigh, where it still is and will probably remain, The wounded man was carried to his home on_the Balcan reservation. During the time this fracas was in progress another man lay dying close by in one of the ramadas, amid the mourn- ful and weird walling of the women. He had been ill for a long time, and one of his last requests was that his people take him over to the fiesta, which was done. An old woman also died soon after, and then another couple were married.

Thirty-Sixth District. James H. Wilson, whose name has been used by the Kelly-Crimmins combination to head their ticket in the Thirty-sixth Assembly District, is out in an emphatic denial of the right of that organization to use it. Frank French, who claims to car the district in his vest pocket and is ne of the most trusted of the bosses’ lieu- tenants, has placed his name at the head : placed in the hands of voters, ming them that the ticket headed by m became the successors of those ted in_the criginal Grand Hotel committee. Wilson was one of the men who initiated the Grand Hotel movement, and after numerous conferences amon the representatives from that district, all the clubs were consolidated into the Re- publican Primary League. This ticket is therefore the only one that represents the decent element of the Republican party in this district. ‘Among the most rabid, fire-eating par- tisans of the bosses in the Thirty-sixth District is W. Guilfoyle, one of the most vociferous of the San Franclsco delegation. Guilfoyle earned a hard name in the last Legislature. The Kelly and Crimmins element has been notorious for years in this district for its bulldozing tactics. Fortieth District. The delegation in the Fortieth District put forth by the Republican Primary League Club is headed by Thomas P. Woodward, president of the Republican VEALE WILL TAKE WINTERS. ok B Continued From Page e, He would not deny it, refusing to talk merely. Sheriff Veale will in all probability take He Winters to Martinez this afternoon. has a warrant sworn out and will arrive in this city this morning. He left Mar- tinez on the 5:30 o'clock train last night with the intention of stopping off at Val- lejo Junction. Winters once removed from this city the scene will shift to Martinez—for all features of the robbery but the aistribution of the reward. Chief Iees and Captaln Seymour had a handshaking party in the captain’s of- fice most of the afternoon. They were open to congratulations, and the old chief seemed thoroughly satisfied with every- thing, praised everybody in the case—but Veale—and even went sgo far as to dis- claim any interest in the way the reward would be distributed. Captain Seymour was in like frame of mind. Lees compli- mented £eymour and his force of detec- tives, and they they all went out and had a drink and then went home, expressive of thanks for the speedy ending of a troublesome job. The distribution of the $25,000 reward is likely to cause some truoble. Lees seems to_think that the work was done by himself, Seymour, Sayers of the Pin- kertons and Tom Gibson. But there are others who are likely to figure in it. Harry Morse was there on the opening day; so was Sheriff Veale. Lees also dashes cold water on Peter Donaldson, the Selby employe, who is said by Super- intendent Von der Ropp to have furnished the first information in regard to Jack Winters as having a possible connection with the crime. As far as a prosecution goes, Lees says that he ig rcady to step forward and bring an accusation against Winters, if no cne else does. This was given with much superi:eat of air yesterday. In re- gard to the price offered Winters to con- fess, Lees practically admitted that such was the case when he defended ' that course of action and claimed that it was no other than the Selbys’ business, and that they acted within the pale of the Jaw, as the man had not been charged with the crime. The money, he says, migit be offered for the discovery of the goi?, but not on a promise of immunity from punishment. No More Gold Found. CROCKETT, Aug. 1.—From early this morning until sunset men have been dili- gently searching and grappling for the remainder of the stolen Selby gold which lies buried in the bottom of the bay at Vallejo Junction. But their efforts have been in vain, noteven a trace of thebullion being discovered. To-night the place is Boss Kelly's | of a misleading ticket, and circulars have | Primary League. All the names on the ticket are those of well known Republi- | cans of good commercial standing, and it |is as a whole one of the best tickets presented in San Francisco for the suf- frage of the voters of any district. Its personnel is of high character. French’s Vest Pocket District. The following letter has been received | by the Call: | _A meeting of the executiye committee of the Thirty xth District Central Republican Club was held at Twin Peaks Hall Saturday even- ing last. Chairman Robert Ash presided and in the course of his remarks stated that the Kelly and Crimmins Club of the Thirty-sixth | | District was using the Central Republican, or | Grand Hotel, Club circulars and endeavoring { to convey the impression that it represented the Central Republican Club_of the Thirty- sixth District. This is false. It is well known | that we are the recognized Central Republican | Club of the Thirty-sixth District, and that we | have lately affiliated with the Primary League Club_and are equally represented by delegates on the Primary Ledgue ticket, and we have | no_affilfation whatever with the Kelly-Crim- mins' Club, of which Frank French is presi- dent, and caution all voters not to be misled | by such underhanded practices, but to be sure | and vote the entire Primary League ticket. ROBERT ASH, Chairman Executive Committee. A. COLWELL, Sec. Ex. Committee. Remember to Vote Early. TUnder a statute passed by the last Leg- islature to-morrow has been declared a | municipal legal holiday by the Board of Supervisors. This means that the de- partments of the city government will not be open for the transaction of business. It is also collection day. and many mer- chants, in order to afford themselves an opportunity to vote, have seriously con- sidered the postponement of the semi- monthly gathering in of debts until the following day. A movement to this ef- fect may be started to-day. In many other respects the methods of the coming election are an innovation. Voters are governed by the same laws and penalties as the Btate imposes in a Presidential, State or municipal election. A fair count is assured, and any boss scenting defeat in the air who dares to w. being closely guarded by Detective Kem- ble and several other Pinkerton men, and it goes without saying that no outsider who values his life will venture near the resting place of the treasure however tempting it may seem. All day long the wharves have been crowded with curious onlookers who gazed with awe and won- der at the spot from which many thou- sands of dollars’ worth of bullion was re- covered yesterday. Further inquiries among representatives of the Selby Company to-day devioped the fact that there was no compromise with Winters and that he would be prosecuted to the fullest extent. “Do you suppose,” sald one of the offi- cials, “that this man is to be allowed to go unpunished after perpetrating such a crime, Even if we did fail to prosecute him the Jaw would have to take its course and Winters 18 not going to get off as easy as he may imagine.” From some of Winters' co-workers it was learned that for a long time Winters was not thought to be in his right mind, and some give vent to the opinion that they would not be surprised at any time to hear that he had become a raving ma- niac. ‘“‘Sometimes,” said one of them to- day,” he would go home from work in the evening and appear on the street as many as six or seven times, and each time he would have on a differént suit of clothes. ~ This caused much comment among his fellow workers and gained him the sobriquet of ‘Butterfly Dude.’ From all outward appearances Winters was what is known as a ‘woman hater,” but if rumor counts for anything he was quite a figure in the local tenderloin.” President von der Ropp remained in San Francisco to-day, but is expected to arrive on the early morning traln to-mor- row to attend to the construction of the cofferdam, which is to be built around the gold, material being already upon the ground. The excitement of the past few days has somewhat abated now, and lo- morrow the search for the builion will probably be continued with better results. _— Jack Winters Served a Term. FREMONT, Neb., Aug. 11.—The arrest of Jack Winters at San Francsico and his subsequent confession to having stolen $280,000 from the Selby Smelting Works recalls the fact that a Jack Winters was concerned in a criminal action in this place. On February 7, 1885, Winters was sentenced by Judge Post of the District Court to four years at hard labor in the State penitentiary, having been previously found guilty by a jury of committing an assault on a young woman. His reputa- tion at North Bend was unfavorable and 1o witnesses were found to testify in his behalf. He has never come back to this part of the State since completing his term at the penitentiary, it ey Ralston Denies Compromise. OAKLAND, Aug. 11.—President Ralston of the Selby Smelting Works made the following statement to-night: “The Win- him. | Another feature is that the same ballot | box will be used alike for Democratic and | Republican ballots, which will be count- | ed by inspectors, judges and clerks ap- pointed proportionately, according to the party vote cast at the last election. The use of pasters is permitted—another feature with which voters should famil- iarize themselves. For instance, in each district the Re- publican Primary League has sent to every voter a slip bearing the names of its candidates. An intending voter should ask for a Republican ballot,.attach the paster with the names printed thereon, and proceed in the same manner as in all other elections. The polls will open to-morrow mornin at 6 o’clock and close at 5 p. m. This wil afford every one ample time to vote, but those whose duties will permit should vote as early as possible. There is no telling what delay might prevent one recording a vote in favor of honesty and clean politics. Final Meatings. Three important meetings will be held to-night in various parts of the city, and it is_the expectation of the managers cf the Republican Primary League that all will_be numerously attended. At every meeting able speakers will be present. In the Twenty-eighth Assembly District the meeting will be held at Young Men's Institute Hall, corner of Folsom and Haw- thorne streets. L. C. Crane, the president of the league, will act as chairman of the evening. In the Thirty-third Assembly District, Maenerbund Hall, Twenty-fourth street and Potrero avenue, will be the scene of the demonstration. A. J. Dannenbaum and others will speak, while music and bonfires will enliven the occasion. In the northern end of the city, at ‘Washington Hall, corner of Stockton and Union streets, another big outpouring of voters will be held. Every Republican of the Forty-fourth District in favor of good government is expected to be present. The principal speakers will be A. Ruef, D. W. Burchard and Z. T. Cason. ISHES SHOWER UPON REDDING Forest Fires Give Snow- Like Flakes fo the Wind. s REDDING, Aug. 11.—Flakes of ashes were dropping all day in Redding, and their appearance was that of falling snow, The cause was a fierce forest fire across the Sacramento River, several miles north of town. Territory six miles in length and several miles in width was burned over. A dwelling, the property of J. L. Bass, a merchant whose place of business is at Baird, was destroyed. The entire force of the North California Investment Com- pany, operating the Black Diamand cop- per mine, turned out to hght the flames, but were unable to stay their progress. H. Seufert, the secretary of the mining corporation, announces positively that the fire hed an incendiary origin. He says it started in six places at once in the vicinity of his company’s holdings.
