Your Majesty is wel- come as the son of the chivalrous King Humbert, of whom I ever retain reverent recollections. Welcome to your Majesty as King of that magnificent and beautifyl taly, the land of our dreams and the source of inspiration for our artists and poets. Welcome as our faithful ally upon the renewal between ourselves and our fllustrious friend, the Emperor Francis Joseph, of that alliance which unites us, which continues in us old strength and which has woven itself into the lives of our people after having for several de- cades assured the peace of Europe, as by God’s will it will continue to do. The entire Patherland unites with me in shouting this joyous greeting: ‘His Majes- ty, the King of Italy. Hurrah! Hurrah! Hurrah? ” King Victor Emmanuel, replying to Em- peror William, said the feelings of affec- | tion expressed by the Emperor were a piedge of friendship which he reciprocated from the bottom of his heart. “In token of the brotherly affection uniting our fllustrious ancestors,” said the King, “our nations will advance in civilization, protected by the old alliance between Italy and two imperial powers, which public opinion recognizes as the emblem of peace and its most effective safeguard.” BERLHW ot of a gorgeous cav- | man in a dark uniform, pulling at | The carriage stop- | crowds ceased cheering In | and read an address of welcome | Behind the | burgpmaster stood, bafeheaded, a hun- | rman Bmperor and asked | t of King Victor Em- | tate banquef given to-night Em- | 5 4 | | | i | | | | | | [ Admirers of Dr. Pardee Meet Him on His Home-Coming and Drag His Carriage Through the Streets. 8 Dr. George C.-Pardee, the Republican nominee for Goy- ernor of California, stepped from the overland train from Sacramento yesterday after- noon he found himself at the Sixteenth-street station, in- Oakland, in the midst of a great gather- ing of his fellow - citizens, come |to grasp his hand ,and wish him godspeed on his journey toward the gubernatorial chair. The doctor’s family | was there, too, his wife and four happy young daughters, and before any one else had a chance to greet him they were about his neck caressing and receiving caresses and expressing their joy at his return and their pride at the honor that has been bestowed upon him. . While Dr. Pardee and a host of Oak- landers who had returned with him were walting at the depot for carriages the | rapidly swelling crowd had opportunity to greet the nominee, to extend congrat- ulations and to exhaust themselves 'in cheers and enthusiasm. | It was an informal affair. Dr. Pardee had asked that he be permitted to o0 home without a demonstration, but this was out of the question. ESCORTED BY FRIENDS. | His friends insisted upon escorting him | uptown, and there was nothing to - do but to accept the situation. Dr. Pardee showed plainly the effects | of the grilling fight he had just gone | through, for his face was drawn and his voice husky. He sald he was quite ex- hausted from the fatigue of battle and the loss of sleep. | Soon the carriages arrived and Dr. Par- dee and his lieutenants In the late brush for the gubernatorial chair sprang into them. With Dr. Pardee sat Sthte Sena- tor G. Russell Lukens, John A. Britton, { who nominated him, and Superior Judge 'HalL A second carriaage contained | Clarence Crowell, J. S. Emery, Felton | Tayler and John W. Stetson. Headed by a military band and followed by an en- thusiastic crowd of the nominee's fol- lowers, the march uptown was begun. The parade passed through Sixteenth and Fourteenth streets, down Broadway into Washington street and then along Eleventh to -the doctor’s home. Before coming into Broadway the horses at- tached to Dr. Pardee’s carriage were re- placed by a long stretch of rope, with which his friends dragged the vehicls along. As the news spread that Dr. Par. dee had arrived, crowds gathered on the sidewalks to applaud their fellow-towns- man. A great cheer swept along the ranks of the spectators as the procession progressed through. the streets. PARDEE EXPRESSES THANKS. At his home, Eleventh and Castro streets, Dr. Pardee alighted upon the carriage-step in front of his door ‘and stood while the band played a patriotie election. Suggestions for cheers for him were responded to with enthusiasm, as were ‘also calls for cheers in honor of John A. Britton, Senator Lukens and John W. Stetson. When the applause subsided Dr. Pardee signaled for quiet and spoke as follows: “Friends: I will ask you to excuse me from any speech-making, as. I am tired to death. I am nearly dead for the want of sleep.” So are my other friends here, Mr. Britton and Senator Lukens and ‘Long John’ Stetson; but I want to say Jjust one thing—that if there ever was a proud Oakland boy he is now standing on the horseblock in front of Dr. Par- dee’s house. So How, if you will permit me, I will go to bed as quickly as T can and get some sleep. Friends, I thank you from.the bottom of my heart.” As Dr. Pardee, flanked by his wife ana children, who had preceded him again to the gate, walked toward his home he was greeted by a final volley of cheers and a “Halfl to the Chief” from the band. Arrangements for a big ratification meeting, probably for Saturday night, are in progress. EE AT Y FAIL TO AGREE. Eighth Congressional District Con- vention in a Deadlock.

Cupid Keeps Him From Politics. SANTA ROSA, Aug. 28.—H. M. Le Bar- on, who represented the Thirteenth Dis- trict In the last California Assembly and who is now president of the Valley Ford Bank, surprised his friends yesterday by marrying Mrs. Helen Davis of Bismarck, N. D. Le Baron's friends were anxious that he should accept a political nomi- nation from the Republican party in the county, and so Insistent were their de- mands that he was obliged to give out the secret of his approaching wedding and the fact that his flancee did not wish him to rémain in politics. Le Baron fs one of the wealthiest men in ‘the west- ern section of the county. The lady whom he has chosen Is also weaithy, having valuable property interests at Bismarck. Orange Republican Delegates Desert Sacramento and Democrats Prepare for Next Week’s Convention. ALL HEADQUARTERS, SAC- RAMENTO, Aug. 238.—Dele- gates to the Republi¢an’State Convention are gradually,leav- ing town. They are departing for the north and south. on every train, and by evening few if any will be found at the local hotels. The hotel-keepers, dispensers of liquid refreshments, restau- rants and hackmen are breathlns"ez\slhnl For the past three days they have been rushed, and are now enjoying life on the harvest they have reaped. Thousands of dellars were spent in this city by the del- egates, and many will return fo thelr na- tive heath broken in pocket and tired in body and mind. Sacramento furnished good convention weather. While it was warm.during the stay of the visitors, the heat was not op- pressive. In the evening a cool breeze made slecping easy for those who: found time to sleep or had the inclination to do so. The delegates seem to be eminently sat- isfied with the ticket they have nomi- nated. A large number of Flint, Edson and Hayes men are particularly pleased that Gage was defeated for renomination. Residents of this city are making prep- arations for the coming of the Democratic hosts. The convention hall where the Republicans held their deliberations: will be placed in readiness for their coming. The seating arrangements will be the same, and the decorations will not be changed. The only changes that will be made will be in the pictures on the plat- form. The likenesses of Grant, Lincoln, McKinley, Roosevelt and other stanch Republicans will be taken down, and in their place will be hung pietures of Jeffer- son, Jackson, Cleveland. Bryan and other famous leaders of the party. . 1t i1s understood that the Democratic delegates will' not begin to arrive until Sunday night. Monday being a legal hol- iday, the convention will not hold its ses- sion as .was contemplated. An adjourn- ment will be taken until the following day. JUBILATION* IN COUNTIES. Defeat of Gage Excites Pleasure in the Interior Cities. LOS ANGELES, Aug. 28.—Gage's de- feat was greeted with acclaim in Los An- geles. Although this— is the home of the Governor, and he has many per- sonal friends, no tears were shed for him except by his political henchmen and by some, Who, for obvious reasons, wished a continuance of the “push” re- gime. Business men generally express themselves as gratified at the clarifica- tion of the political atmosphere which has come with, the elimination of Gage from the: contest, and they freely express the opinion that failure to carry but little more than half of his own county dealt a crushing blow to Gage's prospects of gaining the nomination. Without doubt, though, the greatest victory is ascribed to The Call's exposure of the rottenness that existed at San Quentin prison, and the presentation of facts fn court at an opportune time is be- Heved to have been the direct cause of the Governor's downfall. Dr. Pardee is looked upon as an able min and is eminently satisfactory, al- though scme regret is expressed at the faflure of Scnator Flint to land the nom- ination for which ne worked so hard. Democrats in the county convention re- ceived the defeat of Gage with 1l grace. They had hoped for his renomination, as they looked upon him as an easy man to beat at the fall election, and in the face oi his' fallure they declined to place in ncmination® a full county ticket, feeling that it would not carry. In fact, they could find no candidates willing to accept nominations owing to the certainty of Republican harmony at the polls. Mayor Snyder announced that he was out of the race for the Democratic guber- natorial nomination as soon as he heard of Gagejs defeat, friends say he will be a factor in the State convention and that he may yet de- cide to try for the place. STOCKTON, Aug. 28—With Gage de- feated and Henderson nominated the cup of joy for San Joaquin Republicans is brim full. Yesterday morning the bulle- tins were fcllowed with lively interest and when the flash came that Pardee had ‘won it ran like wildfire through the city, and if there were any Gage mourners they were not in evidence. When private advices came that the San Joaquin dele- gation had voted as a unit and been in the winning column the satisfaction was even more general. Last evening the news of the nomina- tion® of Orrin S: Henderson for Railroad Commissioner provoked much enthusi- asm. The fact that he had won a place | on the ticket by acclamation could hardly be credited at first, as It was expected that he would have a stubborn fight. Four years ago this county gave Gage 300 plu- rality. Tt is doubtful if he could have got that many votes in the coming election. From the first he antagonized leading Re- publicans here and seemed !o go out of his way to increase the eltnnlemenl. although Snyder’s | RIOTERS ‘ATTACK MILITIA First Clash Between Strikers and State Troops. Stones Freely Hurled and Officer Is Wounded. Conditions Are Again Serious in the Coal Fields. TAMAQUA, Pa., Aug. 28.—After a day of Intense excitement the situation iu the Parther Creek Valley has quieted and to- night the troops are enjoying a rest. The first clash between the striking miners and the troops occurred this morning, and as a result five prisoners are in the guardhouse and Captain J. Beaver Gear- hardt of Company F, Twelfth Regiment, is suffering from a wound on his shoul- der, made by a stone thrown by a striker. This morning a report gained currency that the striking miners were gathering in force to make a march on the No. 4 colliery, where the Lehigh Coal and Nav- igation Company is mining and cleaning coal. The colliery is at the west end of the Panther Creek Valley. Companies F and K of the Twelfth Regiment were placed on trolley cars and run through the valley. At Summit Hill the cars were surrounded by strikers, who hurled rocks at the soldiers and calied them hard names. While Jimmy Marteen, an Ital- ian, was in the act of hurling a stone at a car several soldiers jumped off and attempted to capture him. Marteen of- ferea resistance, and the soldiers were compeiled to fix their bayonets. In the melee Marteen was wounded slightly in the left side. STONES AGAIN THROWN. The troopers started back to camp, and as the cars rounded a curve just out- side of Summit Hill, at a point where the tracks take an abrupt dip, the motorman on the first car made the discovery that the rails had been greased. The cars were stopped and the soldiers were sent ahead to place sand upon the rails. When this had been done it was possible, by moving the cars slowly, to reach Lans- ford in safety. A mob had gathered there, and for a time it looked like a riot. As the first car was passing through the mob Captain Gearhardt was struck on the right shoulder by a stome. Several sol- diers jumped from the car in pursuit of the stone thrower. After an exciting seuffle they captured Joseph McCann, a young miner. They proceeded again, but had not gone a great distancg when another crowd was encountered and the soldiers were again | taunted and stoned. Half a dozen soldlers | jumped oft and captured three men who, | it is said, were urging the crowd to at- | tack the troops. The men gave their | names as John King, Timothy King and John Kelly. They were taken to camp at_Manila Park, where, together with McCann and Marteen, they were placed under a heavy guard. ESCORT NON-UNION MEN. This evening Company K of the Twelfth Regiment escorted the non-union men to their Momes in Lansford and Coaldale. Large crowds of strikers gathered on the | streets, but there was no hostile demon- stration. To-night the officers of the | Twelfth Regiment stated that the Second | Battalion of that command, stationed at | Shenandoah, will be ordered here to-mor- row unless the situation is greatly im- proved. The battalion will be stationed at Summit Hill. To-day Colonel Clement, in temporary command of the detachment of the Na~ | tional Guard in the field, issued an order | to the troops on duty in the Panther Creek Valley calling attention to a recent act of the Legislature providing a penalty for the calling of obscene names. He di- rected that the officers in command rigid- | Iy enforce the provisions of the act. | John King, Tom King, John Keliy and James Martehs, four of the men captured by the troops this morning, were released to-night. Joseph McCann, the fifth pris- oner, was taken to Lansford under a heavy guard, where he was arraigned be- fore Squire Lewis on a charge of assault and battery, breach of the peace and in~ citing to riot. He was held in $300 bail. WEST VIRGINIA TROOPS OUT. CHARLESTON, W. Va.,, Aug. 23.—Gov- ernor White has ordered the Second Regi- | ment of the West Virginia National Guard to the New River district, not, as | he says, to settle the strike, but to pro- | tect life and property. Colonel Morrison, | at Parkersburg, was given orders early in the morning to call out his regiment and proceed by special train to Thurmond, | which will be the headquarters. The : cause for this action by the Governor {s the cppeal of Sheriff Daniel of Fayette County for assistance on the ground that many citizens refuse to respond to his summons to act as deputies to enable him to execute the orders of the court and his i declaration that he is powerless to pro- tect life and property. He communicated with the Governor yesterday when his deputies were fired on in the vicinity of | Red Ash, where they were evicting min- Continued on Page 38, Column 1.
