It is a common theory among railroad 1| men that once a man begins to climb | unsuccessfully for eczema, do" the ladder of promotion in the railroad world he generally keeps it up with leaps and bounds. So it i1s with *“Bert” Worth- ington, as he is popularly called. He is looked upon as one of the brightest traf- fic men in the West, Pacific officlals are not slow to appreciate his worth. He has been in the employ of the Southern Pacific Company since he was a lad and he gradually worked his way up through individual efforts statistician two and a half years ago. He was then placed in charge of the Coast Division Under his man- agement tralLs began to pull in on time, | better service was noticed and in a few | months he had the premier division of the Southern Pacific system.

Morgan, president of the California Wine Assoclation, C. Bundschu, Theodore Grier, J. L. Beringer and W. B. Rankin. The committee met with Congressman Bell yesterday in the rooms of the Mer- chants’ Association to discuss the char- acter of a pure wine law, to be Intro- duced in the next Congress, The committee decided unanimously that all wine not a product of the pure grape shall be required to be branded In such a manner as to show its true char- acter, and also that such: wines be heav- ily taxed. The committee recommended that no | additions of any kind should be made’to | wines and that any foreign substance added should be held to make wine im- | pure. e ee—— Sues His Father for Money.

Superintendent { Worthington carried a little red pocket- | book that told him at a glance how much | tonnage his locomotives were hauling, but | he was also credited with combining prac- | tical work with tables of figures. | When Manager Agler took his car out | | over Worthington's division the latter | | could tell how much every way station | brought to the company in freight re- ceipts and how mueh a yard it cost to| oil his tracks.

He was | reluctant. however, to sever his connec- tions with the company he had worked for all his life, and was told that soon the Southern Pacific would be able to give him a better offer. The result was that yesterday Manager Agler formally notified him of his appointment as assist- ant to General Manager Kruttschnitt. Mr. Worthington will' be attached to the executive department of the company, and his friends.predict that he will ad- vance as far as opportunities permit. J. C. Wilder, who succeeds Mr. Worth- ington, is a clever traffic man. He had much experience under Superintendent Palmer and is credited with being able to give his superiors no cause of regret for giving him such a responsible posi- tion. A. W. Baker has also had much experience at the Oakland mole and the work he is to take up will not be un- familiar to him.

TAMMANY HALL FOR CLEVELAND Delegatian. New Jersey Will Support the Former President in Convention. S it O Spectal Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—The Brooklyn Eagle, which has been leading in the ef- fort to boom Cleveland for the Democrat- ic nomination for presient, to-day had the following from Saratoga: The news that Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall, and other important Demo- crats of great ‘Wnfluence have agreed among { themselves and with national Democrats of great influence to elect a New York delegation [for ex-President Cleveland next year reached Saratoga to-day. It was conveyed in a letter to Henry Stafford Little of New Jersey, an associ- ate of Cleveland on the board of trustees of Princeton University, who fs now a guest at the Grand Union Hotel. The letter was writ- ten by ex-Senator James B. Smith Jr., a Dem- ocratic State leader of New Jérsey, and, certain personal passages eliminated, follot “T was very glad to hear from you and to learn that you are at the spring of heaith and hope you will return home good and strong. I read your article as it appeared in the Herald on Cleveland. It was strong and to the point. You and I will be put down as Cleveland boomers by and by, ‘but if our people are as sensible as I take them to be they can elect him. He is the only man they can elect at this time. I conferred with Tammany leaders soon after the article appeared on April 26, and met Charles F. Murphy and a number of other New York™ Democrats, and they all agreed with me that the only thing to do was to nominate Cleveland, “I am sure that New York State will be in line for him at the convention. So will the whole East and Middle West. Whether Bryan has friends who can beat him is hard to tell. Yours very truly, “JAMES B. SMITH JR.” goes on to The Eagle correspondent say: The statement in ex-Senator Smith's letter confirms in authoritative terms the first an- nouncements published in the Fagle that Tam- many Hall will declare for Cleveland and that New Jersey will vote for his nomination in the national conventlon. It is expressly denied by men here who are competent to speak for the party or- ganizations of New York and New Jersey that there is any machine movement in existence or in contemplation to bring about Cleveland's nomination.Cleveland's friends say he would certainly object to | such a movement or to any semblance of constructive politics in his behalf. —_———— Bookkeeper Is Missing.

She said he was book- keeper for Berry Brothers, varnish man- ufacturers, 12 Front street, and on Sat- urday morning he went to his work as vsual, but complained of being sick.

Last night while she was sleeping tn an apartment adjoining the Toom occwpied by her spouse, Gardener arose and, secur- | ing the knife, attacked her. Mrs. Gardener believes that her hus- band’'s mind has become unbalanced and | she will endeavor to have him placed in‘, some public institution where he can be closely guarded. gt S e NEW GRAND JURY IS IMPANELED J.
