The Reorganized Democratic party held a meeting last nignt in its rooms at 906 Market street. W. G. Burke, chairman, was much)in evidence and was the principal talker. This party has two watchwords, “Home rule” and “Anti-boss.” These principles were dominant in the opening speech of the chairman. The thirty “stolid Reor- ganized Democrats” present all agreed With the chairman that a ticket should be put up in each district in opposition to the McNab ticket. The McNab ticket, it was said, was trying to do business with the Republican party. The Reorganized Democrats want none of this. They want to put up a Demo- cratic ticket and insist on having a Democrat nominated for Mayor. They want to do no business with the Re- publican ticket. Chairman Burke in concluding his speech said: “There never would have arisen occasion for a labor union party | if the leaders of the present organiza- | tion had been true to the principles of | Democracy. There was no plan in the platform of the labor union party that | would not have been embraced in the platform of the Democratic party had the leaders of the party stood by the party principles.” Tt FORTY-FIFTH DISTRICT CLUB. Committee Selecteil to Choose Eighteen Delegutes to League Convention. The Forty-fifth District Assembly Club of the Republican League met last | night in Washington Square Hall and selected a committee to choose eighteen delegates to the league convention. Y | Specches were madé by the leading citi- zene of the district deploring the pres- ent condition of the city administration and all were ready to work for the coming good-government campaign. Chairman Bundschu called the meet- ing and John Black was appointed as | secretary. The committee selected to | pass on the delegates were: Ed Buckley, | Gaetane Malpieno, Eli T. Shepard, John | ally to call the atten- | Black and Robert Pattesson. Each of | these men was instructed to do his best | to secure honest men on the list, and | suggestions were considered from the ;memb@n of the district who were | present. g | FAILS TO APPEAR. | Mayor Schmitz Gives New Era Improve- ! ment Club the “Go By.” | The first mass meeting of the New | Bra Improvement Club was a flat fail- ure last evening owing to the non-ap- | pearance of Mayor Schmitz and other | city officials who had been advertised 8, k. ¢ m’.l‘hpceaclub held several important ques- tions up Its sleeve for the Mayor's in- Aorsement, such as the appropriation |25 the new city and county hospital, & pew schoolhouse to be built on San mbly district | the Forty- | citizens | | Bruno avenue and Twenty-fifth street, | {and the draining of the swamp which | | extends from Twenty-fifth street to| Army street, .and from Folsom street to Mission street, but the Mayor did | not appear and the members of the club, after waiting nearly two hours, finally dispersed without calling the | meeting to order, much to the chagrin of the political followers who collected to give him a political boost. | .

As a result of & row in front of the Bulletin office iast night, Ex-Sergeant of Police Thomas P. Ellis, who has been em- ployed by R. A. Crothers during the | | newsboys’ strike, and W. L. Humphreys, | manager of the Bulletin's employment | agency, were badly beaten about the | | face and head. Two newsboys, “Pogie” | Welch and Lugi Armanino, were arrested | by Officers O'Brien and Duffy and charg-| ed with assault with a deadly weapon at | the Central police station. i Ellis claims that he was standing at the entrance to the office when the boys comménced an argument and later at- acked him. Humphreys, who came to his assistance, met a similar fate and it was | not until the police arrived that the riot | was quelled. The boys, when arrestpd, claimed that Ellis struck the first tWo | blows and that he later pulled a gun, after which they fled. Both Welch and Armanino assert that they approached | the office for the purpose of trying to in- duce newsboys not to distribute the Bul- letin when Ellis interfered and a wordy | war commenced in which the word “grafter” was used many times. Blows resulted and once the fight commenced | the newsboys found plenty of assistance. | Ellls was treated by a physician. He denies that he used a weapon. Thomas McCarty, another newsboy, was also ar- rested for assault made upon George M. Brown, a Bulletin carrier, about two weeks ago. ————— “Bargain news” is always good news to the householder; and without any of | it this newspaper would be but hu?f a newspaper. e e SECRETS OF THE WAR GAME KEPT FROM THE JAPANESE | 'w Rules Made on Advice of “Bob” Evans, Whose Servant Had Be- come Commander. Uncle Sam has thrown a cordon of safety about the Chesapeake war game, | and every effort had been made to en- shroud the method employed in the joint army and navy exercises in secrecy. The fact leaked out that the Navy Department had issued orders that none but duly accredited persons be al- lowed on tne vessels of the fleet, the or- ders even including the Japanese ser- vants, which for years have been em- | ployed in various capacities In the ward- room and the cooking department of Uncle Sam's warships. When the gunboat Hornet, flagship of the Maryland naval reserves arrived here there was aboard of her a Japanese chef who had been In the service for years and he had gained fame for hfs delicious dishes. Before the Hornet left with the naval reserve fleet the Japanese chef took his departure from the vessel. This action of the Navy Department is said to have been based on a story told by Rear Admiral “Fighting Bob” Evans on his recent return from the command of the American fleet on the Aslatic sta- tion. The Admiral said his flagship put into Shanghai, where a powerful Japanese cruiser lay at anchor. There were a number of war vessels of other nations there and the usual salutes were fired and courtesies exchanged. Admiral Evans put off in his launch to visit the Japanese cruiser. He was ush- ered intg the commander’s cabin, where he was greeted by a dapper little Jap- . anese officer, who Introduced him to the rest of the officers. Refreshments were brought in and the commander of the Japanese cruiser stepped to the table, and, throwing a napkin over his right arm, sald to Ad- miral Evans: “What will the captain drink?” | Away through the mists of years Ad- miral Evans sent his thoughts and with a look of surprise he recognized in the commander of the cruiser the little Jap- anese “boy”’ who had been his servant when the present admiral was a captain. The Japanese acknowledged that he had served in order to learn all the se- crets possible. When the officials of the Navy Department heard the story of Admiral Evans they immediately decid- ed to take steps to prevent the secrets of the war game from leaking out.—Cincin- nati Enquirer. } Vi formerly chief engineer of G.

L. day of heart fallure. : —_———————— | NEW YORK, July 24.—A report that Jo&n‘ i e SUFFRAGISTY TAND WISDON Susan B. Anthony and Rev. Anna Howard Shaw Ad- dress Multitude of Friends HUMOR ADDS INTEREST “Get Into the Band Wagon,” Says Miss Anthony, as the Cause Is Winning Out BY LAURA BRIDE POWERS. “No woman has a right to occupy space In the world unless she gives some service to the world. “Men, your reformatories are failures. They do mot reform. Why are you mot wise enough—generous enough—to un- tie the hands of the mothers of the race, that they may help in the work?” “The relations of men and women should be dual in political Hfe, as well as domestic and social. The herding of men or of women together ix not pro- ductive of the best results.”—Rev. Anna Howard Shaw. After the demonstration of last night at the Alhambra, who can sanely say that suffrage for women in California is far in the foggy future? And who can sanely say, after last night, that suffragists are a species apart—that they are not” balanced, logi- cal, intelligent, Interesting, capable, withal that they are feminine, deliclously feminine? The foregathering last night was di- rected by the San Francisco Suffrage League, Mrs. Horace Coffin president— this the baby organization of the Cause. On the stage, which was prettily set with willow boughs, flowers and ferns, were Mrs. Coffin, Mrs. Austin Sperry, Mrs. Abbie Krebs, Dr. Minora Kibbe, Mrs. Nelife Holbrook Blinn, Mrs. A. A. Sar- ent, Miss Mary Anthony, Mrs. Andrews and the distinguished guests, Miss Susan . Anthony and the Rev. Anna Howard Shaw. Mrs. Coffin, looking very fetching and very feminine, introduced the veteran worker in the cause, Mrs. Austin Sperry, requesting that she preside as president emeritus. Without waste of words, Mrs. Sperry accepted the honor and straight- way presented the well-beloved leader, Susan B. Anthony—she who for fifty-two years has directed every volt of her energy toward the uplifting of women and children. Erect, lithe and agile she stepped for- ward—this woman of 85—and were it not for the whitened locks on her temples, and the few lines on her moblle face, one would guess her not older than 50. And as to her voicé, it was clear and resonant, and the words came quickly as the battles of the past came before her in review. With ready tongue and ready wit. she told of the early struggles of the sister- hood, of the gibes and the insults and the hardships they met with; of the famous “frandulent voting’ of '72, when she and thirteen other women of Rochester at- tempted to vote and were promptiy shoved into the hurry wagon—if they had one in Rochester way back in '72—and hurried off to jail; of the famous appeal to President Grant, and the equally fa- mous and funny trial, and their final pardon. All this she told in vigorous fashion, declaring that “From that day, the movement has gone steadlly forward. And now that suecess Is at hand, you'd better get in the band-wagon and come in with the procession.”” So much for a woman & years young—a living rebuke to women who at 50 “let go” and grow fat and dull and useless. Then came the Rev. Anna Howard Shaw | —she who became famous ten years ago by finding in California a flawless man, and making him famous thereby—poor Professor Griggs, who has never been able since to llve down the reputation. For directness, clearness, logie, wit, bumor, pathos, quick-wittedness and com- pelling magnetism, that talk of hers has set a new standard for Alhambra elo- quence. A wonderfully resonant voice is hers— with tears in it at one moment, a voiley of laughter at another; tender when she told of the reasons why women should vote—that they might help in the work of saving children, the victlms of heredi- ty and environment. In her talk she declared that in the United States there are 10,000 children under 12 behind bars for crime, and that annuglly the records grow heavier. “Here,” says the lady eloquent, ‘‘here is where women are needed, for women can reach boys' hearts when all else fails. You men have made miserable failures of your jails and reformatories in that they do not reform, but confirm the criminal in his immoralities. Then why are you not wise enough—not gener- ous enough to untie the hands of the mothers of the race and let them help you right the wrong? The feminine in- stinct, the mother instinet will do it if you will but give him the chance.” A new note was struck when Miss Shaw declared that the relations of men and | women should be dual In political life as well as domestic and social—each as complement to the other; that the herd- ing of women together was as detrimen- tal to efficlency as the herding of men together; that the natural re- lation was the only true relation, each bearing a shave; and that the best forms of government will come only when men and women together per- form the Auties of citizenship—the men looking specially after the industrial in- terests, and the women the moral and the soclal. . “What has been accomplished—say in Colorado—by women's suffrage?” asked & lirtener. “In the ten years of suffrage there, more laws for education and the pro- tection of children and of women were en- acted—including the juvenile court law— then in the 41 other States during the same time.” “If women could vote, could they sit on juries?"” i ; “Could they sit on juries? What a joy gitting on anything would be to some poor women 1 know!—women who never have a chance to sit from daylight till dark. Why, sitting on & jury would be a vaca- tion to them.” % “Do women mfl t to vote? “Try them and see.” An;y thus questions were shot at her— sublime and ridiculous—and back came the answers as fit as a glove on me lady’s hand, and as bubbling over with fun. But listen, ye women who think your sole duty in life is coddling yourself— here’s something for you to think about to-day.

Made Swiss ings match CABLE HOLDS WHALE FAST UNTIL DEATH Marine Monster Becomes Entangled in Alaskan Cable and Stops Its ‘Working. The submarine cable between Valdez, on Prince Willlam Sound, Alaska, and Sitka, Alaska, was suddenly interrupted after it had been in successful operation for a month and the cable ship pro- ceeding to the point of trouble found the cable had become fastened securely, the officers thought, under a rock. The ship was accordingly maneuvered to loosen it. Heaving in was slowly continued when the carcass of & whale appeared with a loop of the cable fastened around the lower jaw. The loop was twisted as well, thus securely jholding the whale. The carcass was badly decayed and the stench made the task of loosening the cable from the jaw most trylng. During its’ struggle the huge anmail had badly twisted and torn the cable in its vicinity, making several breaks in the conductor, thus interrupting communication. The steel armor wires, with the excep- tion of three, were broken at the twist of the loop and had the cable not possess- ed great tensile strength (2000 pounds) it would undoubtedly, have been broken. A splice was soon made and communica- tion between Valdez and Sitka restored. One theory as to this pecullar accident is that the whale in feeding along the bottom was swimming slowly with jaws open. The cable being suspended on ir- regularities of the bottom, it came across the whale's open mouth and the animal, in its endeavor to disengage it- self, threw a loop In the cable. The whale was 50 feet long. The depth at the place where it was found is sixty- five fathoms. One other case of interruption of a ca- ble by a whale is on record. This occur- red in the Red Sea many years ago and was caused by a loop of the cable being caught around the whale's tall.— Chicago Chronicle. Year of Natural Upheavals. The present year is likely to be re- markable for the number of its volcanic disturbances, not only on land but in dif- ferent parts of the deep-sea. Vast tidal waves have been reported from different quarters of the globe, and the recent terrible earthquake in northern India has now been followed by a startling marine phenomenon in the Indian ocean. Cap- tain Belton of the British steamship City of Dundee, which arrived recently at Kurrachee, reported that while he was almost 100 miles off the port the sur- face of the ocean was illuminated for some time in all directions by mysterious flashes, which proceeded, apparently, out of the water, and for whicbh he was quite unable tosaceount. He was so bewildered and amazed that he stopped his ship until he could make sure of his position, not knowing into_what strange regions he might have wandered. About the same time the seacoast around Kurrachee was covered by vast shoals of dead fish, hun- dred of toms, which had to be removed to prevent a pestiféhte.—N. Y.

The government, how- ever, obtained information which led to | several arrests. Among those taken charge of was a young man of agreeable aspect who had distinguished himself by his enthusiasm and by his abilities. The caribineer whose duty it was to put handcuffs on him said: “I shall fasten them loosely so as not to hurt you.' “You can trust me,” said the prisoner; “I shall not run away, for I should be sorry to do you an injury.” inen,” sald the carabineer, “as long as you are intrusted to me you may con- sider me as a friend.” *1 shall remember that,” sald the pris- oner laughing, “when I am President of the Itallan Republc.” “Very well, I shall hold you to it,” sald the carabineer, continuing Lh' Joke. “What is your name?" “Alessandro Fortis,” was the reply. That young prisoner, jnstead of havéhg become President of the Itallan Repub- lic, is now president of the Council of Ministers of the King of Italy.
