The troub 15, as Bishop McCabe says, they do not know us Methodists when we get our Sunday clothes on; they think we are all bankers and mil lMonaires. It ls religion and not wealth that makes us look so prosperous. And as for a strike under one aspect it is a perfectly proper and lawful thing. No one can question the right of one man or of 1000 men to quit work if unjustly treated. Indeed, there is something sublime and heroic when imen choose to quit work and suffer hunger and privation in order that manifest wrongs done to some of their number may be righted. If strikes were always lawfully conducted no one need dread them but the oppressors of the poor. But frequently strikes inspired by vislonary and ambitious leaders who array class against class destroy the peace and subvert the social order of com- munities. Another Kind of Anarchist. To-night I charge those who directly or in- directly conspire to prevent others by force from doing the work they themselves refuse to do as being anarchists and enemies of soclety. We have swept away slavery at a great Cost because it permitted a man to say to his fel- lows: “‘You shall work on my terms whether you choose or not.”” But worse than slavery is that other despotism which says “If you work when I do not want you to do so, I will maim your horses, I will beat you, I will kill you."” Here is a man whose wife is sick and his he Svengalis still con- ng attraction in their that no one seems ess Eldridge aiso is in | and brings a number of kes to the week’s fine | thy Norton is still with her third week, and the | re other good holdove e the juvenile wor- Trelease, novelty act called ‘Wilfred Clark in the bright sketch, “In are also headliner: and | on, in a blackface sketch, much amusement.

A number of distinguished churchmen arrived in this city yesterday and secured quarters at the downtown hotels. Bishop L. H. Burton of Lexington, Ky., accom- panied by his wife, came in on the over- land train and went to the Occidental Ho- tel. Bishop W. L. Gravatt of West Vir- ginia was another arrival and Is stopping at the Occidental. Bishop Ellison Capers of South Carolina arrived on the evening train and registered at the same hotel, but he will be the guest of J. Pierpont Morgan at the Crocker mansion during the convention. The three divines are in their calling_and are gmmlnent among the younger Episcopal shops. Tl\epRe\‘. Dr. John Fulton of Philadel- phia arrived last night with his wife and is stopping at the Palace Hotel. Dr. Ful- ton is the leader of the Pennsylvania dele- gation and is editor of the Church Stan- % K dard, published in the City of Brotherly Love. One of the prominent officials of the House of Deputies is the Rev. Dr. Henry Anstice of Philadelphia, who arrived here last night with his wife and went to the fornia Hotel. Dr. Anstice is the as- ant secretary of the House of Depu- ties and has held that position for a quar- ter of a century. He received a hearty welcome from General and Mrs. Warfleld at the California Hotel for the réason that Dr. Ans was the spiritual adviser of Mrs. Warfield's family in the East. Dr. Anstice on Coming to Work. In speaking of the forthcoming conven- tion, Dr. Anstice said that he was confi- dent there would be a large gathering. He :(l;\‘leé] "f]atl‘gf A{(L)eu‘!le of Peputles con- sted of elg] q fifty-four dioceses # m&f orr?fi)mgem ers. One-half of the house conslists of clerical delegates and the other half {8 made up of ay members. The House of Bishops com- prises eighty divines, located in this coun- try. Sixteen clerical and sixteen lay dele- gates also attend the convention, repre- senting sixteen missionary district$ in for- eign countries. Said Dr. Anstice: There are many important subjects to be passed upon by the convention. The question of the prohibition of remarriage of divorced persons will be discussed, a report from a spe- cial committee on marriage and divorce having been prepared. The convention will also pass upon the important subject of the division of the country Into provinces, then we have the revision of the constitution and the applica- tion of the Episcopal church in Hawali for admission into the American church, A large amount of work awaits the convention. One of the most important subjects we wiil deal with is that of forelgn missfons. OWwing to the absence of Rev. Dr. Morgan Dix of New York, the House of Deputics will have to elect a presiding officer. 1 saw Dr. Dix some ten of — days ago and he sald that he was not able lo undertake the long journey to the Pacific onst. The House of Bishops will sit as an execu- tive body, but a synopsis of Its deliberations will be 1ssued every evening to the press. The sessions of the house of deputies will be pub- lic and so will be the meetings of the two houses sitting as the board of missions. The special train of J. Pierpont Morgan is expected to arrive here to-morrow morning, bringing the New York million- aire and many distinguished prelates and lnfv delegates of the Ipiscopal church.

Noted Divine. Among the prominent divines of the Episcopal chirch who are now “journey- ing to this city to attend the national con- vention to be held In Trinity Church next month is_the Right Rev. Willlam N. Mc- Vickar, Bishop Coadjutor of Rhode Isl- and. It is considered very probable that Bishop McVickar will succeed the ven- erable Bishop Thomas March Clark, third Bishop of Rl‘:ode Island and by virtue of senjority Presiding Bishop of the Episco- palian church, who has surrendered the active supervision of his diocese to his more vigorous coadjutor. Dr. McVickar was_for many years rec- tor of St. Mark's Church, Philadelphia, and was noted as a_successful preacher and administrator. He Is known as a “‘moderate” and is indorsed by the most conservative Bishops. Dr. McVickar's diocese includes Newport and the district embracing the most exclusive =of all churchmen. Among these people the Bish- op is extremely popular and finds ample Blulll)ol’t for his charities and organiza- tions. session of L e e T O A O e 2 3 IN READINESS FOR CARNIVAL Festival Preparations by Charitable Women Are Complete. PR CAS The Carnival of Anclent and Modern Art which opens at Native Sons’ Hall this evening promises to be one of the most beautiful spectacular entertainments ever seen {n Ban Francisco. The affair will be in charge of the Woman's Educational and Industrial Union, of which Mme. Louise Sorbier is president. All the members of that body, together with hundreds of so- clety belles and matrons, have interested themselves in the promotion of the enter- tz.nment, and tke indications are that it will prove a brilllant success in every particular. The Frlmlry purpose of tke affalr is to raise funds for the erection of a perma- nent home for the Union. If the present indications are to be relied upon, the sum now in the Union's treasury will doubt- less be largely increased. "The popular interest taken in the event Is intense and indicates the estimation in which the no- ble pur’)oses of tke Union are held. The aims of the organization are to instruct unskilled women In branches which will make it possible for them to earn a liy- ing. Classes In music and general stud- jes are maintained, and graduates from the classes are provided with lucrative positions. It is the only organization of its kind in the city, and its usefulness is generally recognized. Gaily Decorate Booths. The spacious auditorium of Native Sons’ Hall is a bower of rare beauty, and when the people gather this evening a scene of lovcflne!s rarely witnessed here will be presented. ‘The hall ‘contalns eighteen gaily decorated booths, representing va- rious nationalities, ail of which will be in charge of well-known society ladies. Every evening during the week represen- tations of the dress and customs of peo- ples of nations known to the civilized world will be given.

The grand march of the participants Van Der HOLD-UP STORY 19 ML EME Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Sept. 29. The remarkable story of being robbed of $700 on the streets of Oakland, told by W. V. Lillie to the police last night, was without the slightest foundation. It was told by Lillle in order to cover his financial difficulties. Lillle had drawn about $50 during the afternoon, had paid $109 to his men and settled material claims amounting to $22 50, leaving some- thing over $400 in his possession, Instead of $i00, as he claimed. Lillie went to where he had buried the balance of the money that was left after paying his bills fieslerday and turned something more than $400 into the hands of Chief of Police Hodgkins.

Prospectors are seeking for copper in a. new field, which is between forty and fifty miles from the present center of the ac- tivity of copper mining in Shasta County. The locality picked out for exploration Is on the Pit River, southward from the Kosk Creek mines. The preliminary re- port is that there are outcroppings which have lent hope to the prospectors. The local papers of Shasta County express the opinfon that the new field promises well. The Randsburg Miner reports that the old Panamint ‘mines, in which large sums were sunk by Senator Jones and Senator Btewart, will be reopened after being shut down for twenty-five vears. The mines are on Telescope Peak, at an altitude of 10,000 feet. The property was sold for de- linquent taxes amounting to a few thou- sands of dollars. The former owners lost something like three-quarters of a million dollars operating this propert¥. but the more economical processes that have since come Into vogue hold out fair pros- pects of a margin of profit above the cost of mineral production. The expénse attached to mining borax in Southern California, so says the Los Angeles Herald, is very small compara- tively. Transportation to the railroads constitutes the chief element of cost. Cheap transportatlon would remove the temptation that now results in_ great adulterations of borax, because under fa- vorable conditions for getting the product to market the price could be made so low that adulteration would be ungrofllable. The output of borax, in this State last year is estimated by the State Mineralo- gist at $1,013,251. ‘Whitehouse & Bliss will reopen the old Central gold mines at Old Diggings, Shasta County, and will proceed to de- velop the property on a large scale. Suit Over Mines. A suit is before the Superior Court in Trinit; Cnuntx involving the Globe mines. The nity Journal gives the facts of the case as follows: On_October 14, 1899, Robert Woodburn deeded to Messrs Hall and Duvergey the Globe group of mines near Canon Creek for the sum of $25,- 000. Fourteen days later he brought suft in the Superlor Court of the county to rescind the contract, alleging in his complaint that he had been Induced by fraud to part with his prop- erty for a sum below its actual vaiue. The answer of the defendants denied all the allega- tions of the complaint. After the usual pre- liminary sparring the case was set for trial on_June 4, 1900. Owing to the ill health of Judge Jones, Judge Edward Sweeny presided. The pleadings were not settled, and after argu- ment by counsel the case was continued. Sick- ness of counsel and other complications inter- vened so that the case dragged along until last Monday, wheén the court, Judge Arnot presiding, began the trial. The Placer Republican reports that the Zentgraf mine is about to be reopened by an Eastern company. The property is H0! FOR NOME, - - BY 3TAGE LINE Trans-Alaska Company Coaches Will Soon Be Running. Preliminary Step Toward Con- | struction of Railway to Gold Fields. Special Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, Sept. 2.—Within a few weeks the Trans-Alaska Company will have its winter stage line between Ili- amna Bay, St. Michael and Nome in ope- ration. W. M. Rank, gencral manager of the company, is expected in Seattle from San Francisco, his home, about the mid- dle of the week. The establishment of the | stage line is only a preliminary step to- ward the construction of a Trans-Alas- kan railroad, running along the same gen- eral route between Nome and Iliamna Bay. That the Trans-Alaskan Company is amply able from a financial standpoint to carry such ventures to a successful end seems apparent from the personnel of the officers and stockholders of the corporation, among whom are W. H. Crocker, president of the Crocker-Wool worth Bank of San Francisco; F. Till- mann, president of the Tillmann-Bendel Company; Charles B. Green, manager of the Crocker estate; H. H. Lynch, general manager of the Market-street railway; J. J. Mahoney, capitalist; G. W. Kline, manager = of the Crocker-Woolworth bank; W. B. Bourne, capitalist: Charles Nelson, president and manager of numer- Gus slenmshl;}l lines operating on the Pa- cific; James Tyson, manager for Charles Nelson & Co.; George H. Mastick, law- yer. All of those mentioned are residents of San Francisco. The company has completed a survey between Illamna Bay, on Cook Inlet. 8t.

LOUIS, Sept. 29.—Before a crowd the result was never in doubt. “‘Dummy" Tay- lor and *‘Yank'' Yerkes were about matched in the second game of eight innings, | which was shortened on account of darkness. Richards’ home run tied the score. Two errors in the eighth lost the game for New York. ——— JUNSET'S ROAD ABOUT TO RUN Activity in Drilling Is Likely to Occur at Once. Oil Industry Nears Interest= ing Stage in Shasta County. e Trains may be running into the Sunset district this week. Additional extensions of lines in the oil region may be made by the Southern Pacific Company. The oil men say that there will be a revival of activity in new work in Sunsét now that there are facilities in sight for transpor- taticn. At present there is little drilling going on there. Several companies are arfliing in the MeKittrick district. The shipments from the latter field average about eighty barrels a day. Most of the wells are capped while the owers are waiting for more satisfactory prices. Oil, Copper and Finance reports cofi- siderable activity in the Coalinga field. Work has begun on the Main State Com- pany’'s pipe line. The Zenith Company has started, using gas from the Home weil The Merced Company has aban- doned its No. 1 well and has taken down its rig, but wiil drill in arother place. The Banta Clara Companv abandoned its o, 3 well after going down more than 1100 feet. There is a singular disagreement be~ tween the Bakersielid Californian and the Los Angeles Herald concerning sus- cess of the Sgandard Ofl Company in fill- ing its tanks in the Kern River district fieids with cheap oil. The Herald sent & man over the feld and he claims to have scen fifteen Standard Oil Company tanks filled with ofl. On the other hand &l Bakersiield Californian says: The Standard scems to be having some trou- ble in filling its ffteen tanks, already com- pleted in the Kern River fleld, with 15 cent oll. Seven of the tanks have not as yet had drop of the product of the local weils turhe into them and the other cight are not filled to overflowing. Yet the syndicate seems to have no apprehension about procuring all the oil needed as is evidenced by the plans already, t forth to constr an additional fifteen 000-barrel tamks. The workmem who wers employed in putting the roof on the tanks have been laid off for thirty days owing to the scarcity of lumber.

There appears to be a large amount of natural gas there. An aban- doned well is reported to have filled with ofl. This well was broken off some time ago by an earthquake. The Graciosa Company, in which Henry J. Crocker 18 interested, Is sinking a well near the wells of the Western Union Campany. This company has a tract of 7500 acres. The contract for delivering oil at Kah- ului and other points in the Hawailan Is- lands to L. M. Thurston for the use of sugar companies calls for about 125,000 barrels per annum. There wa$ only one bidder, the Union Oll- Company. Plans have been prepared for a tank steamer to be used by the Union Company in this trade. The price is f1 40.a barrcl, deliv- ered at the islan, The Pacific Coast Oil Company will { have a minimum capacity for reflnkl%'."lm oint barrels a day at its new plant at Richmond, Contra Costa County. The siie that has been purchased for the plant is 110 acres. The removal from Alameda was due to the lack of sufficlent room and deep water to accommodate the larger ofl eamers that will soon be running. The entire plant will be removed from Ala- meda to_Point Richmond as soon as pes- sible. The works in Alameda have been in existence upward of twenty years: Approaching a Climax. The Redding Searchlight has the fol- lowing to say concerning the quest for ofl in Shasta County: Affairs are approaching a climax with the oil industry in Shasta County The Shasts Consolidated Company, the local corporation | that was much the strongest, has reached ths end of its financial rope. In fact, the com- pany has used up all of its money and is al.. ready slightly in debt, but the directors of the concern stand ready to meet any Indebtedness. For about two weeks the whole string of tools has laid at the bottom of the well and continuous fishing has so far been unsuccéss- ful. The diregtors held a meeting Tuesday evening and 19 was decided to continue ths . | fishing untll Saturday. The result of the endeavors of the next few days will determine the course of the company I¢ the tools are not recovered work will be suspended, probably for good. 1f they are taken out the well Will be ciosed for some time. but in all probability drilling will be later resumed.

The Gold ountain mine, which is in the Holcomb Valley mining district, has a history that goes back about thirty years, when a 40-stamp | mill was opérated. One of the original owners was ‘“Lucky” Baldwin. de la Mar acquired the mine about two years ago. A 40-stamp mill has been built farther up the mountain. The Rose mine is muech more extensive than the Gold Mountain mine. The high grade ore is shipped to the Pueblo smelter. The low grade ores are handled by the cyanide process. Mineral Wealth says: The Sweepstake development and the over- shadowing magnitude of the deal which brought_it to the attention of the miming world, has set a new pace in the Trinity hydraulic flelds, and capital Is interesting it- self to such an extent that the near future will see the auriferous mountains of gravel under the pipe, as far at least as water is avallable. The exact length of the pipa line will be twenty-one mile: fifteen miles of trench was excavated up to the beginning of the present week, and nine miles of pipe has been completed and is being mude at the rate of 1000 feet a day. Of the pipe completed over two miles has been lald and the work of lay- Ing pipe Is progressing at the rate of 00 feet per day.. The pipe is thirty inches in dlameter and the difference beétween the intake and out- let is 760 feet. The e of the pipe is Jald uniform at 14 feet to the mile, with a difference of fifty feet between the head and mouth of each of the siphons necessary to convey the Water across streamns and gulches. The pipe line has an estimated capacity of 7500 miners inches, Four large siphons are necessary. { at this time. I terested parties in the presence of oil at a greater depth.
