RECIPROCITY S S FOR |President Roosevelt a i Believer in the Prin- | ciple. | WASHINGTON, Sept. 2i—Secretaries | Wilson and Gage, Attorney General Knox | and Postmaster General Smith were the | only members at to-day’s Cabinet meeting. | The time was largely directed, upon the | equest of President Roosevelt, to the ex- planation of the scope and character of the work of the various departments. Secretary Gage gave a-clear idea of the | present condition of the Treasury. He ex- plained his reasons for purchasing bonds for the sinking fund and quoted figures | to show that the saving to the Govern- | ment by these purchases would be large. | Other members followed in-the same | general line. The status of the reciprocity treaties pending before Congress was dis- cussed, the President plainly indicating | that he believed strongly in the reciproci- ty principle. It was decided that the ap- pointments made by the late President, where no commissions were issued owing | to his illness and death, should date from | the time President Roosevelt signed the commissions. ITALIAN EDITORS ARM AND ARE READY TO DUEL Board of Police Commissioners Give Them Permits to Carry Con- cealed Weapons. If the Italian editors of the city are not soon fighting a duel it will be no fault of the Police Commission. At last night's meeting of the board Giovana Almagia and Etteore Patrizi, editors of the L'Ita- 1ia, were given permits to carry revolvers, It ‘appears that in their paper they at- tacked the editor, A. Pedretti, of La Voce del Popolo, and declared that his paper was anarchistic in its sentiments. Pedrett objected to the statements and assaulted Patrizi when he met him in the Italian quarter several days ago. The case was aired in the Police Court, where Ped- retti was fined $20. | The resignation of Policeman E. L. Knorp was read and accepted. Edward | W. Meredith, Frederick H. Flynn and James Bruce were appointed to the force from the head of the civil service list. Policeman Buckley was granted a thirty day extension of his leave of absence. He is at Hot Springs, Ark., suffering from | various ills. Ten special policemen were | appointed. They are: R. E. Hoff, P. L. Clouse, D. H. Sewell, F. A. Stone, H. Diss- ler, John Ryan, L. S.

W., WASHINGTON, Sept. 24.—President | Roosevelt has ample power to grant the application of the Commercial Cable Com- pany for permission to lay a cable which shall connect California, Hawail and the Philippines. This will be the opinion which the of- ficlals of the Department of Justice will render upon the papers of the Commercial Cable Company now before them. These papers were referred to the department by the Sceretary of State. Many officials to-day say_that there are strong prece- dents for Presidential approval of the Commercial Cable Company's application. Before rendering an opinion upon_ the application of the Commercial Cable Com- pany the department is examining the aws to ascertain if there is any special legislation affecting Hawail and the Phil- ippines which will stop executive approval of the application. NAMES OF ELIGIBLE POLICEMEN CERTIFIED At Request of Police Commission Civil Service Board Submits Remainder of List. The Civil Service Commission at the re- quest of the Police Commissioners yes- terday submitted the names of thirty- seven eligibles for the position of police- men.

NAMES 175 LIST OF SUPERVISORS ly Completes City Ticket. -— Preferential Plan of Voting Proves Decidedly Cum- bersome. S il The Union Labor party last night un- dertook the nomination of eighteen Su- pervisors out of a list of thirty-three names submitted the previous night. The “‘preferential” plan was used and baliot- ing commenced at a late hour. A piece of scantling with a number of hooks corre- sponding to the number of candidates was arranged at the back of the stage, while the judges strung ballots on the hoOKS. The complications of the system were thus brought forcibly before the conven- tion. . ‘W. P. Flynn of the Stablemen’s Union, against whom charges were made at the previous meeting, requested the reading of that portion of the minutes relating to him. Flynn demanded that the party who made the accusation against him prove his charges. Ryan of the Brotherhood of Teamsters replied and said that the charges made had been reported to the brotherhood by five pickets, and_ insisted that Flynn's name be withdrawn from the ticket. Flynn claimed that his action was sustained by his union and the executive officers of the Labor Council. On Flynn's motion -that portion of the minutes re- lathg to his case was expunged after the reading of that portion of the report of the investigating committee relating to the objections made. Investigating Committee Reports. Secretary Lane of the investigating committee presented the following report, which, after much debate, was adopted by sections: ‘We, your committee appointed to investigate the eligibility of the candidates for nomina- tions as Supervisors, beg to make the following report: 'W. J. Evatt is at present a Republican As- semblyman, and states that if nominated and elected will immediately resign his office as Assemblyman, and if required will do so as soon as he receives the nomination in this party; further states that he will stand squarely upon our platform and comply with pleasure with all requirements, etc. Edward 1. Walsh was elected as a_delegate to the Republican convention, but did not at- tend, and his name was used without his knowledge or consent, and we find that he did upon several occasions prior to the time he was elected a delegate to the Republican con- vention state that he expected to get a nom- ination for Suvervisor on the Republican ticket, but stated to-day to your committee that he now stood for our platform and no her. A% to W. P. Flynn, like many other union men, at present is working because his union was not called out on strike, and we cannot say as to the merits of the charges. C. H. YOUNG, ALFRED CRIDGE. WILLIAM O. DELANEY, J. C. LANE. After the candidates for Supervisors had been presented to the convention Del- egate Rvan of the Brotherhood of Team- sters objected to Joseph O’Neill of the same union on the ground that he was not eligible to the office, but declined to state the reasons in public. O'Neill from the rear of the hall demanded that Ryan prove his charges, but after much whis- pering the matter was referred to the in- vestizating committee, which reported that Ryan's charges were based on hear- say, but made no recommendation. O’Neill Defends Himself. A motion to allow O'Neill to take the platform to make an explanation pre- vailed, and he denied that he had any- thing to conceal in the whole course of his life. Ryan of the teamsters responded, but refused to withdraw his charges. After many Inquiries as to the proper mode of voting under the preferential or proportional plan balloting for Supervisors was begun. At midnight the last ballots bad been cast and the judges proceeded to_count the votes. The count of 271 votes was not completed until 2 o'clock this ‘morning, Under this plan fifteen votes were necessary to a choice. The following named were de- clared the nominees: James Alrd, James A. Brien, Charles A. Cal- LAUMEISTER AND WELLS LEAD IN Independents of the Republican Convention Threaten to Upset Programme for Mayor. The Democrats Put Tobin on the Slate HE Republican local convention will meet again to-morrow night. Indications are that nominations for Mayor will be reached in the regular order of business. The decision of the committee on resolu- tions to exclude from the platform decla- rations in reference to the existing strike will g far toward smoothing the way for early adoption of the report. If the tommittee reports are not amended and discussed at unusual length the order of nominations may be reached by 10:30 p. m. The impression is gained by general talk with delegates that the contest for Mayor is narrowed down to Charles A. Lau- meister and Asa R. Wells, but the merits of other candidates may be mentioned. The fact that Wells was slated at a.re- cent conference held at Mose Gunst’'s place of business has created much com- ment among the independents. At this conference Max Goldberg, an ardent sup- porter of Wells, was authorized to speak for Herrin and Burns. It is said that many of the delegates who are opposed to the programme and who object to out- side interference in the affairs of the con- vention have resolved to give their sup- pott to Laumeister. early caucus of independents to effect or- ganization for the purpose of breaking the Goldberg slate. Colonel Stone Not a Candidate. Colonel George Stone, chairman of the Republican State Central Committee and commander of the California-Nevada de- partment of the Grand Army, is home again. He attended the national en- campment of the Grand Army at Cleve- land and was sclected as one of the com- rades to represent the encampment at the funeral of President McKinley. Colonel Stone is not a candidate or an aspirant for the office of Mayor, but his name stands on the list of the available along with the names of Charles R. Fatton, Judge Bahrs, . Laumeister, Thomas V. Cator, Dr. Keeney, Reginald Webster, Asa R. Wells, Henry J. Crocker, C. A. Murdock and others. The Forty-first District delegation, Colonel John C. Currier chairman, has re- solved to support C. Murdock for Mayor. The Republican convention’s committee on order of business, H. G. W. Dinkelspiel chairman, held a session at the chair- man’s offices In the Claus Spreckels bullding last evening. The committee agreed on a report, but a dec¢lination to give to the press information respecting the order of nomination was based on the assumption that the committee might PRI PR R EERERRLEXE L LR EAL LT Greene’s Lecture on Art. Francis Melbourne Greene’s second lec- ture on art in the free course at present being given by the University of Califor- nia tcok place last evening in the audi- torium of the Young Men's Christian As- sociation. The lecture was subdivided into design, color and composition, and a very careful and interesting dissection of the stereopticon illustrations was made under these heads. The audience was shown the development of art through its various stages up to the modern im- pressionist school; the good and bad fea- tures of which were shown. - The lecturer gave valuable instruction in the way of how to understand works of art, and also showed how to criticize what he termed “playing at art,” or making natural ef- fects subservient to designs made to play extravagantly on the emotions. The decadence of modern art came in for a share of mention, and incidental thereto the mention of “the kind of plctures young ladies paint on round plgques” brought out laughter. The ltcture was well attended. @ it @ houn, John Coghlan, Thomas Finn, G. W. Getchel, Charles Harcourt, Wash. J. A. Lynch, Joseph M. Lyon. J. M. Murphy, George B. McClellan, J. T. McEntee, H.

Aspir- ants for recognition who do not appear to be slated have active and influential friends in various delegations, Harry Baehr, W. Z. Tiffany and Frank McGow- an, for example, have many earnest sup- porters, who will demand that their favorites be placed on the ticket. Baehr’s following is thought to be formidable enough to command recognition. Politi- cians seem to think that Arthur G. Fisk, the Examiner’s Republican candidate for District Attorney, will be nominated, but it is noted that Frank McGowan is gain- ing in favor. He is developing so much strength for the District Attorneyship that Fisk's supporters are beginning to inquire if McGowan did not recently es- tablish a residence in Marin County in order to make himself eligible for Con- gressional nomination in the First Dis- rict. | In the Democratic Camp. In the Democratic camp yesterday word was given out that Joseph S. Tobin would receive the nomination for Mayor. The | Tobin boom was caused by a statement that Mayor Phelan had positively refused to enter the race for another term. Demo- cratic leaders were of the opinion that Phelan’s decision was final and that he could not be induced to go on the ticket. = SOCIALIST LABOR PARTY DENIED PLACE ON TICKET Election Commission Rules There Were Not Enough Signatures to the Petition. The Election Commission met yester- day and denied the petition of the Soclal- ist Labor party for a place on the munici- pal ticket at the next election. The rea- son for this action was that out of 2779 names signed to the petition only 1342 were bona fide, the other 1437 not being on the Great Register. It is necessary for a political party to have 3 per cent of the vote polled at the last election as signa- tures to a petition. This would require 1956 signers, and the Socialist Labs fell short of the requirements names. The ticket of the party was headed by Edwin K. Carpenter; candidate for Mayor. The commission appointed 1000 election officers to serve at the next election. The Mayor issued a proclamation yes- terday calling for an election on Novem- er 5. i @ Martha Washington Circle.

GERNANS FORM ) FEDERKTION ‘Local Vereins and Soci- eties Organize Under One Head. Delegates Denounce Anarchy and Advocate Laws to Crush I, —— Delegates from the various German so- cieties In this city met last evening at the Arlon Verein Hall, on Post street, for the purpose of forming a federation of all the organizations.
