BUFFALD JURORS NEGLEGT STATE Filcher Explains Method of the Judges at Exposition. California Is Entitled to More Honors Than She Re- ceived. e In a letter received by The Call J. A. Filcher, secretary of the State Board of Trade, fully explains the position held by the California exhibit at the Pan-Ameri- can Exposition at Buffalo in the keea competition between the States and Ter- ritories of the Union. Mr. Filcher's letter follows: g i PAN-AMERICAN EXPOSITION, Buffalo, N. Y., Oct. 11, 1201 To the Editor of the Call, San Francisco, | Cal.—Dear Sir: At last a large porti the awards made at the Pan-American position have been announced, and there is | the usual amount of kicking. According to | my experience there {s more than the usual | amount of Kkicking. There seems to be a howl going up from all departments and all portions ot the ground. California shared tairly well in the fact that its State exhibit was given the highest award and that it received as many goid medals | and silver medals, perhaps, as any other | S ill we feel grieved because some of | good articles have been. passed over with bronze medals or honorable men- tion, while many others among our meritori- ousexhibits seem to have been Igncred en- Some of our wines that have won gold lals at other expositions received no more than bronze or silver medals here, while quite a number of both wine and brandy entries have been apparently fgnored, as their names do not appear .among the list of awards in their class. Among the omissions s a splen. did canned fruit palace provided by the Cal fornia Canneries Association, which has' ri celved more compliments, 1 believe, than any other one single exhibit on the ground. Among the points claimed in its favor were size, uniqueness, artistic arrangement, beauty, qual- ity and quantity of goods. In these points it has no equal at this exposition, and yet among | the list of awards in the food products it does | not appear. Several of our best olive ofis, regularly entered, do not appear as having recelved even honorable mention. Ome of our best paintings was similarly tréated. A fine display of California wild flowers, entitled to distinguished consideration, was ignored en- tirel. a large and beautiful exhibit of seed- ed raisins received no mention; a display of elegantly packed and first quality California asparagus was apparently overlooked; and so on to the number of about forty entries that might be mentioned, and all of more or less merit, were either overlooked or Ignored by the jurors entirely, The worst of the situation is that there is no source of appeal, though there ma be some means of correction. They had a Supe- rior Jury here which Is supposed to have re- | viewed the work of the subordinate juries, but during their work the exhibitors were kept in profound lgnorance as to what the subordi- nate jurors had done or what the Superior Jury was doing. Indeed, we had no intima- tion as to what awards were made on any ar- ticles until ‘the announcemeht in the papers | yesterday morning, when results appeared as herein stated. 1 have been following the mat- ter up and have just learned that a commit- tee exists, made up of members of the late Superfor Jury, which has the authority to correct clerical errors, and if it can be shown that the omissions referred to were the re- | sult of carelessness on the part of subordi- rate jurors or their clerks, or the result of oversight, it is barely possible that we may secure a review and obtain justice yet on the erticles and exhibits that have been appar- ently overlooked. A review of the awards granted to California suggests the idea that the jurors passed on each article presented up to the number of 30 or 40, and then, be- coming tired, concluded to give bronze me: als to 30 or 40 more; honorable mention to 40 or 50 others, and ignored- the rest, and this quality or merit. I do not say they did this, as I have no means of knowing what they did, but I say the re- sult weuld seem to indlcate such action.’| When a first-class wine, a first-class oil, a | beautiful exhibit of photographs, or other ar- ticles of equal merit,” are ignored entirely; when @& whole house twenty odd feet square built of & food product and in such an artistic and unique way as to become the talk of all sed visitors, by a jury without being the awards. 1 am going to follow up this matter, and it the committee on clerical errors can do any thing to remedy the oversight, I shall insis that justice shall yet be done to some of our best exhibits. In this connmection I would say that the awards In the line of fruits In jars and fresh | fruits have not yet been announced; neither has there been any announcement vet of the awards in the dairy building. In both of these departments California figures prom- nently. '"Wifle ndividual exhibitors In many cases will be sorely disappointed, as I am, our peo- | isfaction in the fact that their State is grant- ed the gold medal for the best State exhibit. The fact that we secured this award will also serve to prove that those who have re- | turned and spoken lightly of California’s ex- hibit as a whole were either prejudiced or predisposed to criticism. Very truly vours, J. A. FILCHER. If a girl is really displeased with a man | she doesn’t tell him so. |Returns to Resume His| | Duties in St.Francis | Parish. FRIDAY AND SPEC | After a year spent in touring Europe | the Rev. Father E. Caraher returned to | this city yesterda) is duties | as p: . P . |~ Father Caraher visited nearly every city yof any prominence in Europe during his | absence, and being a close observer he has | a most interesting story to tell of his | travels. Last Easter Sunday morning he | had the honor and proud distinetion of | celebrating mass at the Holy Sepulcher. There were six masses celebrated there that morning, and four of them were of- fered up by foreign priests. | On Christmas eve Father Caraher was | in Rome and attended the grand and sol- empn service of the closing of the holy door. | During the service Pope Leo was carried | through St. Peter's in state and blessed | the faithful. Stopping at a confesslonal | that contained the ashes of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, he knelt down in silent | prayer for several minutes. On reaching | the holy door he took a golden trowel and | with it laid the first brick that closed the | gateway for the next twenty-five years. Father Caraher met President Kruger while in Pa and was graclously re- celved by him and his Cabinet. President Kruger spoke most gratefully of the many kindly acts of the American people and of the encouragement extended to the Boers in their struggle for liberty. | _A lecture entitled “Easter at the Holy | Sepulcher” will be given in the near fu- | ture by Father Caraher. An interesting | feature of the lectire will be a graphic description of the tomb of our Savior and of how ma s celebrated there. That Cut No Disappointments. Smuggler and a Captain Fined. A. C.
