Two regiments, the One Hundred and Fifty-seventh New York and the Sixty-first Ohio, were guided by one of their officers, while the other two, the Eighty-second Illinois and the Forty- fitth New York, were led by my chiet of staff, Lieutenant Colonel Otto of the Fifty-elghth New York. “It had meanwhile become quite dark, the direction of the fight being indicated by nothing but the sound of musketry. The regiments entered the woods with the greatest determination and drove the en- emy from our rifle pits. “It is my pleasant duty to mention as especially deserving, the names of Lieu- tenant Colonel Otto, who superintended this operatfon with great judgment and courage, and Lieutenant Colonel Salomon of the Eighty-second Illinois, who dis- played the highest order of coolness and determination under very trying clreim- stances. €.

During the fighting before Resaca, Ga., on the 14th and 15th of May this regiment behaved with great gallantry. “Again at New Hope, Ga., on the 2th | of the same month, the. colonel led his command with great coolness and cour- age against an enemy; after having ad- vanced against a severe fire of musketry and artillery more than a mile,he held his line close to the entrenched position of the enemy, without a breastwork and with a scant supply of ammunition. “At the battle near Peach Tree Creek, before Atlanta, Ga., on the 20th of July, 1864, Colonel Salomon performed a most gallant and meritorious part in mepuls- | ing the repeated onslaughts of the ene- my. In the face of a furious fire he held his line for four hours, when the enemy withdrew from his front with great loss. | “During the siege of Atlanta Colonel Salomon was ever prominent for his en- ergy, coolness and judgment. “In the fight near Averyboro, N.

At Gettysburg and Mis- | sion Ridge his gallantry was conspicuous and challenged the highest admiration. “I consider Colonel Sal n one of the most deservihg otucers my /acquaint- ance.

Crock This action is taken for the purpose of driving from our city, home and fireside a govern- § one man, free and independent octer and not Lane. - We answer because Crocker is . You ask us why Crocker is strom, %er than Lane. We answer, hecause two years ago over | 16,000 Democratic votes were taken outiof the lap of the Democratic party by appealing to the sses and placed in the column of Schmitz, from which vote Lane, at best, can only expect a small part. This is best shown by the reception accorded Lane in those districts heretofore in‘ensely Democratic, and from which Crocker and no other Republi- can could expect more than his party strength. But in those districts to-day Crocker is stronger ! We differ with Mr. Lane in his opinion of the division of the Republican vote—and in do- [ ing so occupy a better position to know than does Mr. Lane. Since our sole desire isto rid city of Schmitz, let us have the facts as they exist. | When Lane ran for Governor thousands of Republicans were shouting against Pardee. Pardee was bitterly denounced by certain elements supporting Lane. Every man who denounced Pardee voted for Lane, and with all only 33,743 votes were cast for Lane. Add together the vote cast two years ago for Tobin (12,700) and Schmitz (21, 700), and it aggregates 34,400, practitally the same vote received by Lane in the gubernatorial This shows conclusively that the Republican votes then fighting Pardee and now in the Schmitz column were cast for Lane, leaving Pardee’s 24,106 as the inalienable Republican vote of San Francisco at that time, to which must be added the natural increase, which is Republican. hich must be further added thousands of labor votes, not one of which Pardee got—neces- | sarily bringing the Crocker vote to 29000 or 30,000. | It follotws that a Republican vote cast for Lane is awvote for Schmits, because Schmitz’ | zote comes almost entirely from the Democratic party, therefore cvery citizen, Democrat or Re- publican, desirous of defeating Schmitz should cast his vote for Crocker—because no matter | how strong Lane’s personal friends may endeavor-to show him to be, he cannot come within sev- | eral thousand votes of defeating Schmikz; and it resolves itself into a matter of expediency that in order to defeat Schmitz all good citigens must rally to Henry J. Crocker. P.H. McCARTHY. e e 4 ACCOUNT OF ESTATE "o IS QUESTIONED IN COURT San Rafael Judge Hears About Ket- {er Property and Attorney 2 Makes Statement. SAN RAFAEL, Nov. 2.—There was a considerable stir in the Superior Court this afternoon over the accounts of the Kettler estate. J. W. Keys, who is attorney ad litem for the minor children, stated to Judge Len- | non that he did not understand perfectly the account as filed by Attorney Cochrane for the guardian, Mrs. Mary Emily Page Kettler. He declared that the account contained errors and duplications. Atterney Thomas P. Boyd, who was sub- stituted last week as attorney for Mrs. Kettler, instead of Cochrane, put Mrs. Kettler upon the stand to testify as to Cochrane’s method in handling the es- tate. She said she did not know of any error in the statement and had relied upon her attdrney and his brother, M. F. Coch- rane, as her counsel and financial ad- visers that all items were correct. M. F. Cochrane had, it was stated, re- ceived $1680 and expended $2105 80, for which he had vouchers, thus leaving the estate in debt to him. Attorney J. W. Cochrane had never handled any money of the estate. The court decided to have another hearing of the matter next Mon- day. The Kettler estate is valued at between $400,000 and $500,000. Many years ago J. C. iBeidman died and left a large fortune. A life annuity he bequeathed to W. B. Kettler. At his death the money was to be for the benefit of his children. Kettler died several years ago and left five chil- dren, the oldest at the present time being 14 years of age and the youngest 3 years. ————————— RAILROAD MEN LEAVE FOR SOUTH TO-NIGHT Bound for New Orleans to Attend Annual Meeting of Their Pas- senger Association. A party of local railroad men, members of the American Association of Traveling Passenger Agents, leave in a special car this evening for New Orleans, where they will attend the annual convention of the organization, which convenes there on No- | vember 10. The local party is composed of representatives of various agencies on the coast from Portland to Los Angeles. Besides the president of the association, T. F.

BLICAN NOMINEE BY GREAT M | LANE GLOSES 4. CAMPAIGH Big Demonstration in Mechanics’ Pa- vilion. e et Democratic Candidate for Mayor Given a Rous- ing Reception. ——— The Lane meeting at Mechanics’ Pa- vilion last night drew a tremendous crowd that filled the building to its ca- pacity. The overflow adjourned to a vacant lot across the street and there was address- | ed by prominent candidates on the Demo- | cratic ticket. | Lane arrived about 10 o'clock. His ap- | pearance on the street was the sign for a great ovation. Men and women arose | and cheered him, while many waved | small American flags. He announced at the start that numer- ous outdoor speeches had played havoc | with his voice and begged his audience | to be as quiet as possible, which request | they solemnly adhered to, except when | they burst into applause, which fre- quently punctuated his remarks. He | sald in part: i “I cannot begin to express to you my | feelings at this magnificent reception. I have always been a friend to the public, | and I knew that many of you were friends of mine, but I had no idea I had such an immense number of people inter- ested in me and the cause I represent. I/ did not seek this nomination, but I am | proud to think that I accepted it, because I am now confident that the people of this city want to see me in the Mayor's chair, and it is now up to you to carry | me there. If you put me there I am go- ing to give you a plain, honest, clean ad- ministration which will accord justice to all who come tc me to seek it. I own myself and I have no boss. I want to see every citizen in this commonwealth have his full rights. I believe in a gov- | ernment that is not ruled by any class party. “The other day I addressed a great crowd of workingmen and the hall was packed full. The next day it was stated that I had thirty people present and they were mostly small boys. The day fol- lowing I addressed a still greater crow and it was stated there were thirty-five people present. I want to speak a word to my Republican friends. I mean those that want a clean administration of the affairs of the municipality. I want to ask them to break away from partisan- ship and support me in a cause that they know is true and right, and a cause that if upheld will result in the greatest ben- efits to all of those who have the welfare | of the city at heart. “I have nothing to say in any way det- rimental to Mr. Crocker; he has the re- spect and esteem of the public at large. but he cannot get the votes south of Market street, and without those votes | he cannot be elected. I am confldent I | will get votes in every district. It is not the glory of the proud position of the Mayor that I am seeking; it is that I want to serve my city and do all the | good I can for it. I am loyal to the pepole and I know in this great fight they will be loyal to me. This great outpouring to-night shows me that the Democrats who left our party are now coming back to the ranks and are joining in a great tidal wave that will sweep us on to victory. Are you willing to turn the administration of the government to Abe Ruef? Do you want Abe Ruef to say how and where the $17.000.000 shall be spent? No, of course you do not; you want to see that every dollar of that money will go into the exact channel for which it was intended. “Now, my friends, I want you to get out of this miasma and fog and come out intp the bright shining light of day. Sacrifice partisanship in the name of hon- or, in the name of righteousness and | truth, and uphold the men who will fight for those principles and who will give to you justice and a true and honest ad- ministration of the city's affairs.” | Herbert Choynski was chairman of the occasion. Speeches were also made by Frank Gould, Thomas Hickey, Colonel Thomas Barry, Charles Dwight, Judge James G. Maguire and Joseph E.

Goodnow. late of the Rock Isi AJORITY SCHMITZ HoLDs LARGE MEETING Immense Crowd Greets Mayor at Alhambra Theater. Entertainment Fleases Peo- ple More Than Political Speeches. The Union Labor party held one of the largest meetings of the campaign last night at the Alhambra Theater. The large hall was filled to the doors with an enthusiastic crowd. Those who wers un- able to get into the theater stood in the street in front of the place and listened to the bands Ruef had hired and to the hired orators of the Labor party. It was evident that the large crowd as- sembled had come more out of curiosity than for any particular desire to hear the lspeakn’s rail at the candidates of the other tickets. The Socialist party candi~ dates were the only ones that didn't get rapped. Ellery’s Italian Band was hired for the | evening and succeeded by its fine musie in drawing a crowd. Bits of other talent, mostly of the amateur order, appeared to amuse the assemblage and endeavor to hold them until the various candidates » could get a chance to gain their audi- ence. It appeared as if the whole mass of Union Labor voters was out in force, and, If it was, the showing does not augur well for the re-election of Eugene Schmitz, for five thousand would cover the number in the house and on the street. DEVOTO RAILS LONG. The banner “knocker” speech was de- livered by James A. Devoto. It was a repetition of his same old speech that has grown time-worn and frayed at the edges by the hard work it has been subjected to during the campaign. The speaker also brought In all of the slurs and mud slings ever used by the other candidates in their mad scramble for an office and a few of the city’s good dollars, Devoto talked on everything but campaign issues, After he had exhausted his vocabulary of vicious slurs he soared into the flowery eloquence so delighted in by amateur speakers and referred to the boundless Pacific, the setting . the Golden Gate and other high-sounding phrases In a Vain attempt to impress his audience with his greatness and the possibilities of the t nion Labor party. His speech, however, failed to impress, and the crowd howled for more entertainment. A quartet was called on the stage and by its endeavors the people were held so that another can- didate could get a chance at them. Powel Fredrick, candid: for the of= fice of County Clerk, was next called on. He called the attention of the voters to an alleged deficit of between 330,00 anq $0.000 in the office to which he aspires He sald that the office had been m !l‘;‘ hands of one political crowd for the last ten years. The only way this evii could be rectified was to elect him to the office. SCHMITZ ARRIVES. Mayor Schmitz arrived late and was given a rousing reception. He made a brief speech, going over the old issues again. He asked the people to elect him again, as the city was about to spend $18,000,000 voted for its embellishment and needed an honest man and honest Board of Supervisors to control that vast sum of money. He pointed with pride to his past administration and sald that the next one, if there was one, would be bet- ter. He promised to always be the friend of the laboring man and sald that he would always be proud to be a friend of the plain people from whose ranks he had sprung and who he would ever treat fair- ly and squarely. “I shall ever have for my slogan,™ =aid, “‘equal rights to all and sp::l-:l Dflh': fleges to nome.” “This has been a hard campaign,” he continued, “and without the aid of a sin- gle newspaper we shall be victorious. Let us roll up a majority that will startle the whole country, and let it be heralded forth that San Francisco has triumphed for the cause of jpstice and right early and stamp your cross in the circle at the head of the Union Labor ticket and elect to office men that will serve youw faithfully and honestly. “We will win by a big majority and then equal rights will be given to all and special privileges to none.” The meeting broke up with three cheers for Schmitz and the noisy crowd of boys and young men started down the street to march for their standard bearer. —_——— Is your interest in Abe Ruef, McNab and Martin kin and Market streets, was injured yes- terday afternoon by the falling of a large iron beam being hoisted up the side of the building.
