ISR LONDON, Dec. 22.—The announcement of Premier Campbell-Bannerman ‘in his speech in Albert Hall last night at the opening of the electoral campaign that the Government has given instructions for the stoppage 6f importations of Chi- nese coolles to South Africa caused the Keffir market to open weak to-day. Lead- ing shares fell 3-16@3%c. The Conservative papers refer to the step as being the “most serfous taken by a responsible Government since the attempt to impose the stamp duty on the American col- onles” The possibility of Lord Selborne, the High Commissioner in South Africa, resigning, is discussed. The Premier’s reference to Indian af- falrs, in which he said, ‘“We shall make ourselves a pariy to no step involving an invasion of the sacred principle of the subordination of the military to civil au- thority,” is taken by many military men to imply either the recall or the resigna- tion of General Lord Kitchener, the com- mander-in-chief in Indla, who successful- ly appealed to the late Government in his disputes with the late Viceroy, Lord Cur- zon of Kedleston. ‘While the Premier had little to say on the Irish question, the Conservatives will take his announcement that ‘““those do- mestic affairs which concern the Irish people alone, and not us, should be in their hands,” as a reiteration of the pol- ioy of home rule, and this will be the bat- tle cry of the Unionists in the impending campaign, MOPS PRISON FLOOR WITH OTHER FELONS Special Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, Dec. 22.—Mrs. George Ed- ward Adams, wife of the defaulting cashfer of the local United States Assay Office, was attending to her Christmas shopping yesterday. Attired in a stylish street gown and carrying a gold pencil with a silver-mounted memoranda tab, she made her way about the downtown stores, making purchases. This morn- ing a large book, wrapped in tissue pa- per, bound with Christmas ribbon and bedecked with a spring of holly, was left with Sheriff Smith for Adams. though Adams will eat his Christmas dinner in jail, it will not be prison fare. He mops up the floor of the jail in turn, as do the other prisoners. He is much ridiculed by the hardened crimi- nals. WESTERN CATHOLICS BLESSED BY POPE LOS ANGELES, Dec. 22.—Bishop Conaty of the Los Angeles diocese of the Roman Catholic church arrived here to-day on his return trip from Rome. The Bishop was brought from Pomona by special train and was wel- comed to the depot by a large con- course of friends. Speaking of his au- dlence with the Pope Bishop Conaty sald: “I am glad to bring the Pope's bless- ing to my own people, but also to bring to the people of Los Angeles the | blessing of the kindest, gentlest old man on earth, for such he seems fo me, and he has remembered Los An- geles with a message of blessing.” LABOR TROUBLES MAY SHUT DOWN SMELTER Spectal Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, Dec 22.—Miners and smel- termen are threatening trouble in the smelter town of Kennet. During the last ‘few nights bodies of masked men have escorted non-union men to the outskirts of town and compelled them to move on. To-day Manager Lyons told reporters that he expected trouble and declared that at the first sign of determined efforts on the part of the union men to cause a row the big plant will be closed. The mammoth company employs union and non-unfon men. RATROAD MEN GET AN INCREASE IN PAY SAN BERNARDINO, Dec. 22.—The San Berdnardino Traction Company to-day surprised its employes with a raise of 2 per cent in their wages. The Hunting- ton system out of Los Angeles raised the wages of its employes last month and the raise to-day by the San Bernardino Com- pany confirms the report that Huntington owns a controlling interest in the San Bernardino Valley Traction Company, —_———————— SCHWAB SELLS HIS SMELTING PLANT TO AMERICAN COMPANY NEW YORK, Dec. 22.—It was an- nounced to-day that Charles M. Schwab has disposed of the large Pa- cific Coast smelting plant, which he acquired several months ago, to the American Smelting and Refining Com- pany. At the time of the purchase the relations of Schwab and the American Smelting and Refilning Company were not altogether harmonious and the ob- Ject of the purchase was to make the Schwab mines in Nevada independent of the smelters company in so far as the handling of ore was concerned. Schwab, within the last few weeks, has held a series of conferences with John Hays ‘Hammond and other smelt- ing representatives, with the result that the American Smelting and Re- fining Company will hereafter smelt and refine the output of Schwab’s Ton- opah mining properties. ————————— ARMY ORDERS.

Michael Hawkins was the only sur- vivor at the dinner who represented San Francisco at that session of the law- making body. He was vne of the fathers of the Golden Gate Park pill, and during the course of the dinner he related an interesting story of how the bill was framed, fought against and finally passed by both houses. ———————— MANY MITES ARE GIVEN A HEARTY CHRISTMAS TREAT The Occldental Kindergarten Asso- clation gave Its pupils a Christmas | festival yesterday and it proved an in- teresting affair.
