Mayor Schmitz Addresses the Delegates Who Are Attending the Labor Convention Which Is Now in Session at the Garden City. — WALTERE TUEC RETHIR - MANY LODKING FOR HICH PLACE Five or Six Candidates for Governor- Will Probably Be Placed in the Field ¢ FRESNO MASS-MEETIN Methods of MecCarthy, New Boss of the Union Labor Party, Excite Deal of Gossip Politicians outside of the circle of office- holders predict that the State campaign this year will present some peculiar phases. It would not be surprising if there were five or six candidates for Gov- ernor. The Public Ownership party was recently incorporated in San Francisco. The incorporators were Daniel O'Connell, Albert Johnson and others. At Fresno, on Washington’s birthday, there will be a mass meeting of the promoters of the new political organization, W. R. Hearst is said to be its active agent behind the scenes. The Union Labor party, backed by P. H. McCarthy and Mayor Schmitz, is | reaching out for State recognition. It is | within the range of probability that the Public Ownership adberents and the | Union Labor forces will amalgamate. Of | course no amalgamation could take place | without the consent of Schmitz, Hearst | and MecCarthy. | " Reports are to the effect that the Pro- hibitionists will throw a deal of vigor into the State fight on behalf of their ticket.

Howard Thompson, its trustee, from selling mortgaged property valued at $200,000 under a power conferred in the mortgage, has occupied the attention of Judge J. S. Noyes in the Superior Court for the past three days. In their argu- ments Attorneys Gill and Densmore for the bank said that the complaint does not charge facts sufficlent to authorize the issuance of an injunction and that the equities of the complaint have been fully denied by the answer. The action is but another chapter of the $500,000 case now pending in which Thompson Henry Goodwin Newton of London, England, is the chief defendant. Mrs. Gage claims to have a $50,000 mort- gage on the property, which the bank holds as security, but the defense de- clares that this claim is fraudulent be- cause she obtained the mortgage without any consideration whatever. Judge Noyes gave both sides ten days in which to file briefs. —_————————— RAILROADS WILL ESTABLISH A NEW DISTRIBUTING POINT Secure One Hundred Acres and a De- sirable Fronmtage on Columbia Slough, Near Portland. PORTLAND, Jan. 10.—To establish a distributing point for all of Oregon at the meeting plgce of the Oregon Rall- road and Navigation Company and Northern Pacific roads, seven miles from Portland, on the Columbia slough, is the purpose of the Columbia Arm Investment Company, Incorporated to- day by articles filed In the County Clerk’'s office. The company has secured 100 acres and a 1600 foot frontage on Columbia slough, on the line of the Portland Railway Company, and plans to make this the distributing point for the en- tire State. It Is the first point where the Hill and Harriman lines will meet after entering Oregon. Seven miles will be saved each way by making this the distributing point, instead of hav- ing the freight trains running on into Portland. The company includes among its stockholders many of the leading citi- zens of Portland and Oregon. The capital stock is $65,000 and it has all been placed. —_—— Two Old Remedies, Two of the oldest and best remecdies =old are Allcock’s Porous Plasters and Brandreth’s Pills..

PETALUMA, Jan. 10. — Prominent business men’of Petaluma have formed an organization to work in conjunction and along the same lines as the Cali- fornia Promotion Committee to further the interests of Petaluma and vicinity, Labor and Public Ownership parties, will | probably place a straight ticket in the | field. | . Next week there will be a .conference | of Democratic leaders in San Fruncisco | for the purpose of uniting the discordant | elements of the Democracy. It is expect- | ed that Gavin McNab will attend a coun- | cil of the Iroquois with a view to list- |ening to peace negotlations, The war- | riors of the tribe have already declared in | favor of public ownership, but this decla~- | ration does not signify that they will fol- |low M. F. Tarpey and the Hearst wing | of Democrats into the Fresno convention. ext week the executive committee of the State League of Republican Clubs will | meet In this city to arrange for the bien- | nial convention of the league at Santa | Cruz in May next. The activities in the | Union Labor ranks and the efforts of the | Public Ownership promoters to enlist the | support of voters are noted in Republican | camps, but the old party column is firm |and confident. Republicans do not fear | fusion, except when they indulge in it | themselves. | It is now understood that P. H. Me- | Carthy is installed -as the boss of the Union Labor party, and whatever he says | wiil go. His plans are not disclosed, but | it is deemed probable that he will organ- | ize a State nominating convention of del- | egates appointed from the various labor | unions. When the candidates are nom- | inated they can be placed on the State ballot by petition. Mayor Schmitz re- ceived his first nomination for Mayor from delegates appointed by the trades unions of San Francisco. In this manner the Union Labor party was created. Many of the workingmen who were earnest supporters of Mayor Schmitz ob- ject to McCarthy's leadership on the ground that the new boss talks too much, and is inclined to treat his followers as if they were a gang of roustabouts. | Others who rejoice in his leadership, and “whn commend the Mayor for placing Mec- Carthy at the head of the State forces of labor, assert that the organizer has cour- | age, ability and loyalty. It is claimed on McCarthy's behalf that he will not rob | the party workers of the fruits of vic- tory. —_—————— CARPENTERS’ UNION CELEBRATES SEVENTEENTH ANNIVERSARY Native Sons’ Hall the Scene of Dancing and Festivity at Annual Ball of Organization, = The seventeenth anniversary of the organization of the Carpenters’ Union, No. 483, was celebrated by a ball and entertainment at Native Sons’ Hall last night.

SEATTLE, Jan. 10.—Never before in the history of Seattle has there been such a boom in real estate as has been witnessed in the last forty-elght hours in tide lands. Saturday some one started the rumor that a large packing plant was looking for a site. The word was no sooner spread than every one began to look for options. Two thousand persons secured options and the property has jumped 60 per cent since Saturday. A conservative amount of the profits made in the options would be $300,000 and to-night there are no options to be obtained although the demand is stronger than ever. —————— Laundry. 5 . % S BESSIE MORTIMER TAKES FIELD TRIALS DERBY. Joseph E. Terry's English Setter Outpoints Aunt Marie—Birds More Plentiful and Dog Work Improves. —p HANDSOME BRACE TO BB A STAR OF THE MEET. BY R. A. SMYTH. Special Dispatch to The Call. BAKERSFIELD, .Jan. 10.—The fleld trials Derby, the first of the important stakes to be decided during the week, was completed this morning. It was won by Joseph E. Terry's orange and white English setter, Bessie Mortimer. She Is by Kilgarif-Maggie F. Hugh Hopkins’ liver and white English setter Aunt Marle was the runner up. She is by Uncle B-Sports Belle. F. C. Schumacher’s lemon and white pointer Lady Belle, by Teddy Kent-Jack's Fashion, was third. The stake was finished shortly after 10 o'clock. The carrlages with the spec- tators were drawn up in a,semi-angle around the judges, who were on horse- back. Judge Baughn announced the placing of the dogs and Mr. Terry was overwhelmed with congratulations. The winner maintained her good work of yesterday and thus found favor with the judges. Aunt Marie was fairly good in the first serles. When put down this morning she showed sufficient form to take her into the second series. Lady Belle made no points, but her sther qualities ifi' the fleld carried her through to third place. The All-Age stake was started and five braces of dogs were tried out. From the clever work done by Kil- garif, Belle Fountaine and Policy Girl it is evident the stake will provide some exciting sport before it is completed. 'W. S. Tevis, who has done so much for the trials since their inception, was present to-day with the members of his family. During the afternoon he pointed out where birds could be found. Some of the officials were skeptical and went into the brush and drove out a large num- ber of birds, thus proving his knowledge of their habits and of their location. When the birds were most numerous and conditions were best the last brace of dogs had been run and the party re- gretfully left the grounds. KILGARIF SCORES HANDILY. J. H. Schumacher, who served as an associate judge in the Derby, retired in favor of Willlam Dormer in the All Age, as he had a dog in the running. The first brace in the stake consisted of W. W. Van Arsdale’s black, white and tan Eng- lish setter McCloud Boy (Tony Boy-Sadie Hopkins), handled by C. H. Babcock, and J. E. Terry's black, white and tan Eng- lish setter Kilgarif (Orion-Merry Lou), handled by W. B. Coutts. The dogs went away well and covered a wide range of country. Kilgarif worked over to the northeast corner of the section and into some willows in an adjoining fleld. Several birds flushed and Kilgarif pointed. A small bevy was flushed. The dogs were put on the scattered birds and Kilgarit showed the conditions suited him even if they were bad for the Derby six stanch dogs. He made five or ints. Ul:v‘ W. Van Arsdale’s black, white and tan English setter Count's Gift (Count’s Mnrk-Vgerona School Girl), handled by C. H. Babcock, and J. B. Terry’s black, Wwhite and tan English setter Kenwood (Kilgarit-Tona §), handled by W. B. Coutts, was the next brace to start. Birds proved scarce, and while there was plenty of speed and range there was no oint work. pAlter luncheon at the Gosford ranch J. B. Lucas’ liver and white pointer Chi- quita (Dr. Daniels-Fango), handled by his owner, and Stockdale Kennels' liver and white pointer Cuba Jr. were cast off in fresh ground south of the ranch. This brace showed wide range, but hardly the speed of the preceding ones. Cuba Jr. made one good ‘point. Chiquita made one just before the bird flushed. J. W. Considine's black, white and tan English setter Policy Girl (Dave Beal- Tops Queen), handled by J. E. Lucas, and S. Christenson’s blue belton English set- ter Belle Fontaine (Count Whitestone- Grace Gladstone), handled by W. B. Coutts, gave an exhibition which made up for any disappointments the specta- tors may have experienced during the early stages of the trial. Policy Girl found and pointed a bevy which was possibly moving. As she moved up closer Belle Fontaine snapped in and took the point. The heat then became a race for birds. The bevy scattered and the setters ranged widely and fast in search of them. They gave a spectacular exhibition of classy work, Belle Fontaine secured the most points, but her opponent proved more clever in all the other requisites of a fleld dog. DOG NAMED FOR THE JUDGE. The last brace of the day was J. E. Terry's white and orange English setter Romp (Orion-Terry’'s Lady), handled by Fred Coutts, and Stockdale Kennels® liver and white pointer dog Checkmate (Cuba Jr.-Bowis Daughter), handled by R. M. Dodge. Birds were plentiful, but neither dog could do well with them. After the Derby J. E. Terry presented a puppy by Kilgarif-Terry's Lady to Mr. Van Ars- dale. Kilgarif is by Orion-Merry Lou, while Lady is by Count Gladstone-The 1111 Peachmark. 3 Mr. Terry asked permission to name the dog and called it Judge Baugn, in honor of the presiding official. Mr. Van Arsdale presented Lady to Mr. Terry some years since. £ - BAKERSFIELD, Jan. 10.—The an- nual meeting of the Fleld Trials Club ‘was to have been held to-night.

FATAL QUARREL OVER A BUCKET Walter C. Ivers, Who Recent- ly Came Here From East, Is Attacked by a Mexiecan Special Dispatch to The Call LOS ANGELES, Jan. 10.—As a resuit of a quarrel over an old tin fruit bucket, not worth 10 cents, Walter C. Ivers, who came to Los Angeles recently from the East, is dying at the Receiving Hospital, and Vito Devardo, a Mexican laborer, who Is unable to read or write and who can hardly speak English, is in jail await- ing the result of his victim's injuries. Devardo first attacked Ivers with a pitch- fork, infiicting terrible wounds. Then the Mexican secured a revolver and as Ivers lay helpless shot him In the back, fractur- ing the vertebrae above the walst. According to Ivers’ ante-mortem state- ment he saw the Mexican in possession of a bucket which belongs to him, and de- manded to know what he was going to do with it. The Mexican replied with an oath, and then seizing a pitchfork stabbed Ivers in the breast and abdomen. Ivers had strength enough to wrest the pitch- fork from his assailant’'s grasp. Then De- vardo ran to his wagon, a short distance away, and securing a revolver returned to where Ivers was lying on the ground and shot him. The Mexican then mounted his wagon and drove off. A boy followed him on a bicycle and pointed him out to a policeman, and his arrest followed. The murderous assault was witnessed by several persons, who declare that it was wholly unprovoked.

GOLDFIELD, Nev., Jan. 10.—Forty drunken braves, belonging to the Plute and Shoshone tribes of Indians, engaged in a terrific fight on the outskirts of Gold- fleld late last night, employing as weap- ons, axes, clubs and razors. It is a mat- ter of wonder that none were killed. The four ringleaders now lodged In the stone jail are badly beaten up and one is hardly recognizable. Deputy Sherift Budd Carberry and Con- stable Spaulding were attracted to the scene by the yells of the frightened squaws and pappooses and the barking of the dogs.
