Thomas Post. | Infantry, during the rebellion, was buried with military honors by George H. Thom- as Post, of which he was a member, at the Odd Follows' Cemetery yesterday af- ternoon. Simple yet beautiful ceremonies were held at the post headquarters in the pres- | ence of the deceased’s old comrades of | the G. A. R. | _ Captain Cox was a veteran of the Civil | and Mexican wars. He was born in Ship- pensberg, Pa., seventy-six years ago. He came to California among the argonauts | of 1851, but returned East and settled at Lyons, Iowa, where he entered the volun- | teer service in 1861, as captain of Com- pany I of the regiment that went from that State. He took part in the battle of Fort Donaldson and was in the fa- mous charge of his regiment that elicited from General Halleck the high praise of ““the bravest of the brave.” Later he rose from a sick bed and commanded his com- any in the two days’ battle of Shiloh or ittsburg Landing. He was severely wounded on the second day and invalided home. For his gallantry he was tendered promotion, but his wound was so severe that he declined the honor and took an honorable discharge. He was greatly respected in both his civil and military life for his sterling qualities of character. He had been a de- voted Odd Fellow for fifty-two years and in his days of prosperity built and gave to his lodge at Lyons the hall it has since occupied. He returned to California in 1869, somewhat broken in health and re- duced in fortune to spend his declining years. He a »d the position of cap- tain of the guard of the Reform School at Preston age served in that capacity until his last sickness overtook him, about three months since. He leaves 2 wife, a son and three daughters who reside in this city. ————— Trapper's Oll cures rheumatismand neuralgia. Druggists, 50c flask. Richard & Co.,406 Clay. * —_—— At the Park and Beach.

HE Italian retail fruit dealers to the number of 100 or more met at Garibaldi Hall on Pacific street yesterday to take action relative to the blacklisting of certain of their number by the “Big Four” for trad- ing with the Growers' Co-operative Agency. As was expected, a lively meet- ing was had. About four months ago the growers of the Sacramento River district established what is known as the Growers' Co-oper- atlve Agency, the object being to dispense with the commission merchant and to save to the fruit grower the commission ordinarily paid to him for the handling and sale of fruit. The ijnauguration of this enterprise necessarily aroused the antagonism of the larger commission men and particularly' the “Big Four,” com- posed of Porter Brothers, McDonogh & Runyon, Minaker & Welbanks and L. Scatena & Co. When the retailers bought fruit from the agency they were black- listed and until this blacklist was re- moved they were not privileged to buy fruit from any members of the associa- tion. The result was great dissatisfac- tion and the consequent meeting yester- day of the Italian retailers to take ac- tion in the premises. The meeting was held under the aus- pices of the Italian-American Retail Frult and Vegetable Union of San Francisco and was presided over by President J. Del Carlo. F. Di Grazia acted as secretary. President A. T. J. Reynolds and Manager Ben C. Dalton of the Growers’ Co-oper- atlve Agency were in attendance. | SITUATION IS DISCUSSED. | The situation was discussed at consid- erable length. President Del Carlo said it was advisable not to take decisive ac- tion for or against the commission men until their positlve views upon the sub- Ject was ascertained. He believed that the retailers had rights which even whole- salers were bound to respect and one of these was to be privileged to buy his goods wherever he could get the best for his money. Many speakers addressed the meeting. The sentiment was generally expressed that the retailers were not being fairly treated by the wholesglers. Many whole- salers sold fruit to private persons at prices less than the retailers paid and de- livered the goods free of charge. When the retailers protested, the wholesalers laughed, but offered to do nothing to pro- tect the business of the retailer. When the retailer bought his wares from. the Growers' Agency he was placed on the blacklist and could not buy such fruit as the agency was unable to supply him with. This treatment was regarded by several of the speakers as being un- American and worthy the condemnation of fair minded citizens. H. B. Zambelli offered a resolution de- claring it to be the sense of the Italian reaailers that the project of forming an organization be deferred until a commit- tee could be appointed to interview the wholesalers and find out what their pre- cise position in the premises may be. This met with the approval of the meeting and it was decided to appoint a committee of five to interview the wholesalers. A reso- lution was adopted requesting that the black list be suspended by the whole- salers until Wednesday, when final ac- tion in the matter will be taken. The committee appointed to interview the ADVERTISEMENTS.

RETAIL FRUIT DEALERS WHO S DECIDED YESTERDAY TO OP- POSE ORDERS OF “BIG FOUR.” L4 commission men i{s composed of G. Rebal- di, Charles Demartini, 8. Travesro, John | Del Carlo and J. Zambelli. GROWERS ARE FIRM. President Reynolds of the Growers’ Agency addressed the meeting. He said his association was formed by the fruit growers of the Sacramento River Valley | for the purpose of selling their own goods | directly to the retailers. From the first the agenty met with the opposition of the larger commission men, who, on see- ing that the agency was growing success- “ful, began to boycott all the dealers doing business with it. This was done in the vain hope of breaking up the agency. Reynolds went on to say that this could never be accomplished, as the agency was getting stronger every day. He assured | his hearers that the agency would be in a posltion to supply every want within a | short time and he asked that the retail- | ers stand by it to the last if they hoped to get a square deal. Duffy, a commission man who an- nounced himself as being against the “Big Four,” addressed the meeting with considerable vehemence. He said the re- tailers should organize against ‘‘the mon- ster that was depriving them of their rights as citizens and business men.” He argued that this concern had a rope around the neck of the smaller commis- sion men who dared not call their souls their own. He said it would be to the interests of all concerned to perfect an Iro‘nbound combination against the whole- salers. This closed the session and an adjourn- ment was taken subject to the call of the chair. When the committee is ready to file a report a meeting will be called. Meanwhile efforts will be made to have the American fruit retailers join in the movement to bring the wholesalers to terms. One of the conditions to be in- sisted upon is that the wholesalers make a deposit of $50 to bind their agreement not to sell goods to private persons nor to dellver the same free of charge. | @ foirietofrfoetorferfoeferferforferferferfmforfrefeefeeiredeedeefredecfoloodomlenfodeoftsfuntunfunfeefenfenfeefesfesfocfocfocfoforforforforferfnfeefesfrefrcfecficfocfecfocfocfocfocfocfecfooulnfninininiet: @ LOGAL PYTHIANG READY FOR WORK Committee of the City Lodges Completes All Arrangements.

MARY"S MAY aU0N BE MOVED Sisters of Mercy Talk About Erecting New Hospital. It is not unlikely that in the near future St. Mary’s Hospital, which has been lo- cated on Rincon Hill for upward of forty years, will remove to a more favored lo- cality. While nothing definite has as yet been determined with regard to the change, the Sisters of Mercy, who conduct the institution, have been seriously con- sidering the advisability of removing the hespital, The removal is contingent upon a rea- sonable offer for the present site of the heepital. Rumors have been current for months past that the Santa Fe Railway Company desired to acquire the hospital Iroperty to add to its already large hold- ings in the vicinity of First and Bryant streets, and had offered a large sum for the land. The Sisters of Mercy denied that any such offer had been made, and said they would certainly accept it if the least increase over and above the market value of their property were offered. ‘The Sisters own a block of land on the corner of Point Lobos avenue and St. Rose avenue and a large lot on Masonic avenue. Either of the sites would be ad- mirably adapted for a hospital were it not for the contiguity of the cemeteries. Should it be finally decided to move, the Sisters say they would purchase a site in some other locality. Should the removal be delayed, however, it is not improbable that one of the sites named would be utilized, as it is calcu- lated that the cemeteries will be removed in at Jeast ten or twenty years, if mot sooner.
