The badges are highly prized as souvenirs. The local committee badges are simpler and are in red. The executive committec badges are in vellow. The badges of the Yocal parlor are in blue. The ladies were not forgotten and were given a guest's badge of white silk. The delegates formed in line behind the Jocal parlor and band and marched up Pacific avenue under tHe canopy of Bear flags that cover the street. On each side were crowds of the local peogle, who gave the Natives a hearty welcome. The pa- rade was disbanded at the Hotel St. George, which is the headquarters of the grand officers.

After enjoying to thelr hearts’ content the hospitality and good cheer furnished by Stanford Parlor on Saturday night, 400 | delegates to the Grand Parlor of the Na- tive, Sons of the Golden West departed yesterday for Santa Cruz. This promises to be the most important Grand Parlor ever held in the history of the order. The delegates from the north- ern part of th State eohirsiiced o arrive in this-city ‘edl¥ Baturday morning and with few exceptions they stopped on their way to enjoy Stanford Parlor’s jinks. At this successful function rival candidates for various offices grasped hands pre- liminary to the struggle to come. Grand Treasurer Henry S. Martin was sire of the jinks and pursuant to his in- structions most of the delegates departed on the morning trains after snatching a few hours’ rest at the conclusion of the entertainment. Others, not as enthusias- tic as their colleagues, waited until after- noon trains, but they were all eager to reach Santa Cruz, which has made extra- ordinary preparations for their reception during Grand Parlor week. The advance guard of the delegates was made up of members belonging to the par- lors of Ventura and Oroville. Grand Sec- retary Lunstedt left on the first morning train and was weighted down with the books and records of previous Grand Par- lors. Among the delegates and members who left yesterday to attend the festivi- ties were: Grand First Vice President Lewis F. Bring- ton, Grand Second Vice President H. R. Mc- Noble, Grand Treasurer Henry S. Martin, Grand Marshal Ed J. Taafe, Grand Inside Sen- tinel Joseph Goldman, Grand Trustees George L. Jones, James L. Gallagher, Charles D. Bax- ton and Will D.

Ratalel ¥ 8 iy FIRE SWEEPS OVER A BATHING RESORT South Beach on the Staten Island Shore Sustains a Heavy Loss. NEW YORK, April 27.—South Beach, a batfiing resort on the Staten TIsland shore just onutside the Narrows, was fire-swept to-night, every structure along the beach for a distance of 2500 feet being destroyed, involving a loss estimated at $150,000. The resort is not yet open for the season, and most of the places destroyved were not tenanted. The fire started under the mu- gic hall of -the casino of Albert Hergen- ham, who with his wife and two walters ‘had come down in the morning to prepare for the opening of the season. As the music hall had not been opened it is sus- pected that the fire was of incendiary ori- gin. In a’ few minutes the whole struc- ture was-ablaze, and before the engine could be summoned from Stapleton the flames had attacked the frame structures on either side and was traveling fast east and west along the beach. The spread of the fire was finally checked to the westward at Miller's hotel, which was badly damaged. X In the other direction the flames ran to the extreme end of the beach. The prin- cipal structures- destroyed in additlon to the casino were Walsh's hotel and Wrightman's “Aquarlum.” Most of the loss falls on Beachman, the Staten Island brewer, who owned Walsh's and Hergen- ham’s places.

GREAT BRITAIN’S PERIL. | “The Germans,” says the Daily Mail, ‘have made a good bargain, because the German Government was wide awake, Government ignored warnings and laughed at threatened peril. “It is high time,” the article concludes, “that both the nation and the Govern- ment awoke to their peril.” HAMBURG, April 27.—An official state- ment of the terms of the agreement be- tween the German steamship lines and the syndicate formed by J. Pierpont Mor- gan is published here. The agreement be: tween the Hamburg-American Packot | Company ang Morgan, it appears, was concluded last March. Under the agreement, it is asserted, the German lines have preserved their inde- pendence in every respect. The syndicate is bound not to send a ship t any Ger- man harbor without permissien of the German lines, which in turn bind them- selves not to increase their present traffic from England to the United States be- yond a certain fixed point. Many other clauses in the agreement aim at prevent- ing competition between the syndicate and the German lines. Neither may ac- quire shares in another, but they are to mutually support each other, by charter- ing steamers and otherwise, in fighting competing third parties. % PROVIDES FOR ARBITRATION. A committee is to be formed, consisting of two representatives of the syndicate and two representatives of the German lines, for the settlement of all questions concerning their mutual interests. This committee will have no executive power, and any differences in construing the clauses of the agreement must be sub- mitted to arbitration. The duration of the agreement is limit- ed to twenty years, but either may ter- minate it after ten years, or demand & revision of the contract and withdraw if revision is refused.
