The shooting occurred at Perovich's boarding-house on Broadway, whose pa- trons are Austrians and occupy Sleeping rcoms in the rear of the Perovich resi- Gence. Andrew Perovich, the woman's husband, was absent. Mibaijlovich was a Montenegrin, 34 years of age. He previously had been em- ployed at Perovich’s as cook, but recently wcrked in the Gwin mine.

His nomination is not only an honor to Marin County, but is a credit. to the Republican party as well. BRUSIE AND BOYD SPEAK. Judson Bpusie paid the following tribute to Judge Angellotti: No greater honor could be conferred upon the county of Marin, no highet compiiment pald her people, than that which has given you so exalted a place on one of the strongest Repub- lican tickets ever presented to the people of California. _Surely nothing could be more ratifying than such a recognition. Giving to §Sudge Kngellottl the full measure of his worthiness, admitting to the fullest extent his personal strength, personal popularity, personal renuown, it is to the glorious, loyal little county of Marin that we muset turn at ‘when seek- ing to repose our gratitude. Callfornia but re- cently discovered, reached out and claimed him; Marin County discovered and claimed him & long, long time ago; and it was by your confidence, trust and faith in him through all these years that he stands to-day reflecting honor upon you and credit upon himself. It ‘was a great, grand and glorious victory, devold of all trickery, barren of all treachery, abound- ing_in loyalty, full of significance. That body of men which nominated Judge Angellott will pass into.history as one of the most_illustrious and distinguished gatherings of representative Republicans that ever assem- bled within the State. The interest was in- tense; out of 830 delegates, there was not a single absentee. The complications presented were so numerous; possibiljties—favorable and unfavorable—followed so fast, that at times a sefe adjustment seemed impossible, But it came at last; the clouds gathered and broke, and when those who had been in the midst of that mighty conflict looked .out and saw the sky bright with sunshine above them and the waters beneath them asleep they knew that our glorious Republfcan bark had weathered another storm, and with sails as white as sfiow, with_spotless’ decks, new. ropes, strong masts and halyards secure, with a dauntless captain and a falthful crew, she Would sail to another victory in November. ‘As Republican partisans we have a long line of illustrious patriots, men whose names are an _inspiration, whose deeds will live forever, and whose lives were a benefaction; and to our credit and gratification can it Be said now that we again present a list of names which will not alone sustain, but will lend additional luster to that galaxy of Republican leaders who in the past have given to our party its greatest strength, to our State and nation the greatest security.

His attitude as a member of the Ways and Means Committee on the Cuban reciprocity question was approved by his own constituents, as well as by their next door neighbors, the peo- ple of California, whose fruit-growing in- terests were so tremendously involved ir that measure. Favorable notices of his attitude on that question have been given by papers in every section of the State. glving to Judze Angellofti, and those with whom he is associated upon the ticket ‘the largest Republican majority ever recorded in Marin. City Attorney Thomas P. Boyd spoke in part as_follows: % When Marin's delecation of eight left ‘San | Ratael for Sacramento it started out determined to win and back it is here this evening Vic- torious. The delegates owe success to the loyal aid given them from all over Marin County—from Sausalito, from Belvedere, from Tomales, from Mill Valley, as well as from San Rafael—in addition to the magnificent support of the great men of the party from all sections of_California. ‘When you, citizens of Marin, go to the polls | on eléction day, forget not to stamp your ap- | proval of the convention’s action by voting for &ll the nominecs of that convention, as Wwell as for the Hon.

DUBLIN, Aug. 20.—At the annual meet- ing to-day of the Imsh landowners the Duke of Abercorn made an address, in which he voiced approval of the idea of promoting a land trust, and predicted that such a trust would be a valuable means of defeating the system of boycot- ting, blackmailing and conaf;lmcy ‘which, the Duke said, had arisen almost entirely because the Imperial Government was strangely blind to its growth and un- wisely deaf to the warnings and protests of the Irish loyalists.

Iroquois Clubs of the State Will Cele- brate at Sacramento. The Iroquois Club last night completed arrangements for taking part in the cele- bration at Sacramento. Wednesday night has been set apart on the programme of the Democratic convention for the Iro- quois Clubs of the State, and they Intend to give a powWow that will eclipse all demonstrations hitherto given by Demo- | cratic clubs. Delegations from the forty- scven Iroquois' clubs in California will participate and there will be plenty of oratory. The local club expects to have at least 100 braves in full war paint and feathers in line. The members will leave here next Tuesday at 8 a. m. and on their arrival at Sacramento will be met by the Iroquois braves of the Caplital City and escorted up town. After the business had been transacted last night an interesting programme of speeches, recitations, songs' and boxing exhibitions was given. Among those who took part in the entertainment were: J. R. Dean, Harry Nieman, T. J. Walsh, Willlam Locke, J. W. Brobeck, W, M. Cannon and several young athletes from the Olympic Club under the direction of Fred Butts. SEEK PARTY HONORS. Democrats Who Aspire to Places on the State Ticket. Delegates to the Democratic State Con- vention will assemble at Agricultural Pa- vilion, Sacramento, next Tuesday at 1 P. m., and it is probable that J. C. Coo- nan of Humboldt County will be chosen chairman. There are several aspirants for the gu- bernatorial nomination of the party. The leading candidates are Franklin K. Lane of San Francisco and Thomas J. Geary of Sonoma. There is considerable talk con- cerning the proposed candidacy of former Governor James H. Budd, but he insists that he is not a candidate. Mayor M. P. Snyder wires from Los Angeles: “I am not a candidate.” ‘Word comes: from San Jose that Nicho- las Bowden is a candidate for Assoclate Justice of the Supreme Court. ° It is the talk in Yolo County that Dick Beamer will go before the people as a candidate for the State Board of Equali- zation in the northern district. This de- termination upon the part of the Demo- cratic statesman to keep out of the guber- natorjal contest is very. easily accounted for. The nomination of a stalwart anti- machine man to lead the Republican le- gions in the campaign insures the defeat of the Democratic nominee at the com- ing election. If Burns, Kelly-and Herrin had succeeded in foisting Gage on the Re- publican ticket candidates for the Demo- cratic nomination would be tumbling over one another in their desire to head the ticket of their party. Several weeks ago many of the Democratic leaders were led to believe by the bluffing tactics of Dan Burns that Gage would win out in the Republican convention, hence the list of Democratic aspirants ' for gubernatorial honor then embraced the names of M. P. Snyder of Los Angeles, William T. Jeter of Santa Cruz, Nicholas Bowden and B, D. Murphy of Santa_Clara, Thomas J. Geary of Sonoma; Franklin K. Lane, ‘Washington Dodge and J. C.

The big list has dwindled down to two or three candidates for Governor. | The indications are that Lane will en- counter but little opposition unless Budd is persuaded to enter the contest. It seems probable that E. C. Farns- worth of Visalla, whose resemblance to ‘William J. Bryan is only in form and fea- ture, will be nominated for Associate Jus- tice ‘of the Supreme Court. The other nominee is likely to be Nicholas Bowden. There is talk that W. A. Gett of Sacra- mento will receive the nomination for At- torney General, and that Alex Rosbor- ough of Alameda will be placed on the ticket for Secretary of State. There is political gossip to the effect that a south- ern Democrat, perhaps Isadore Dock- weiler of Los Angeles, will get the nomi- | nation for Lieutenant Governor. John Gaffey and R. F. Del Valle will have something to say in regard to this deal. Some time next week Jacob H. Neff, chairman of the late Republican State | Convention, will appoint the executive | committee of twenty-two. In due time | Dr. Pardee’s letter accepting the nomina- tion for Governor will be prepared. In tne latter part of September the volce of the campaign orator will be heard in the land, as the State Committee will organize without delay for a vigorous and victori- ous campaign. J. W. Ballard of Orange County was in San Francisco yesterday. He remarked that he was not a candidate for Congress in the Eighth District, and would not al- low his name to go before the convention at Oxnard as long as there were indica- tions that Nutt, Danlels, Smith and Booth could settle the contest among them- selves. Several election wagers were settled yestérday, When the announcement was made In The Call two weeks n.go that Drury Melone of the Twenty-eighth sembly District would not take the - chine programme, Colonel Burns re- marked ‘“You can have my head for a football it Melone does not vote for Gage."” It is all right now, for the Berkeley and Stanford teams to make applications for the colonel's head, as Melone did not on any ballot vote for Gage. It is noted also by casual observers that the head of the colonel is of very little use in politics. Several days before the Republican con- vention assembled The Call described two very elegantly gilded bricks and gave out | the information that the Gage machine ‘would give one of them to Crooks of Beni- cia, candidate for Rallroad Commissioner, and pass the other to Professor Greeley of Orange, candidate for Superintendent of Schools. The S8an Luis Obispo delegation on behalf of the allied bosses made the presentation to Professor Greeley.

Archbishop Ireland Is Said to Be the Prelate Chosen for Elevation. Special Dispatch to The Call. ROME, Aug. 2.—A correspondent hears that in view of the increase of Catholics | in the United States the Pope has decided to create another American Cardinal in order to establish equilibrium in the sa- cred college. It has been pointed out to him that whereas Great Britain and Ireland, with 6,000,000 Catholics, have two representa- tives, and even Australla, with hardiy 11,000,000, has a Cardinal (Moran), 13,000,050 lgi’ Catholics have only one Cardinal (Gib- ons). It is considered certain that Archbishop reland will get the red hat. Monsignor Kelley, Bishop of Savannah, left for home_ this week, after a three weeks’ stay.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2).—Acting Presi- dent Foulke of the Civil Service Com- mission has addressed a' communication to all the executive departmesnts in gard to the part office holders may take in politics. Attention is called to an or- der issued by President Cleveland July 14, 1886, containing the following: “The influence of Federal office holders should not be felt in the manipulation of political primary meetings and nominat- ing conventions. The use by these offi- cials of their positions to compass their selection as delegates to political conven- tions is indecent and unfair, and proper regard for the proprietles and require- ments of official place will also prevent their assuming the active conduct of po- litical campaigns.” The communication states that this or- der has never been repealed, but has been declared by President Roosevelt to be still in force. In constructing it, however, there is a distinction, Foulke says, to be made between officers and employes who are In the classified service and those who are not. The letter states that those who are outside the classifled service are chosen largely with reference to political consideration and as a rule expect to be changed with the change of parties, but in the classified service the choice is made without reference to political con- sideration and the tenure of office is not affected by the change of parties. In consideration of this the communica- tion further says the man in the classi- fied service, while retaining his right to vote as he pleases and to express pri- vately his opinion on all political sub- jects, should not take an active part in political management or in political con- nections for the same reason a Judge or army officer is debarred from taking such part. In regard to those who are not in the classified service the communication says the limitations are not so strict, but even in this case office holders must not use their offices to control political move- ments or coerce the political ac of employes.

PARIS, Aug. 2.—A decree making a number of diplomatic appointments was signed by President Loubet to-day, but it will not be officlally published for a day or two.

Cambon whom Jusseraud replaces i the United States as French Embassador to Spain. and M. Bompard, as French Embassador to Russia in succession to the Marquis de Montebello. The significance of M. Bom- | pard’s appointment lies in the fact that as he is chief of the consular commercial Bureau of the Foreign Office, it may be taken to mean that the diplomatic rela- tions of France and' Russia are now so satisfactory that closer commercial rela tions are contemplated. M. Bihourd is ap- pointed French Embassador to Germany, in succession to the Marquis de Noailles. Yuba Rancher Takes Poison. MARYSVILLE, Aug. 29.—August B.
