Prominent E;aders Hold Rally to Strengthen Party for Coming Political Fray Club Fails to Put in an| Appearance at Gathering | A meeting was held in Franklin Hall vesterday for the purpose of reorgan- | izingthe Democratic party of San Fran- co. It started out with' statements speakers who sald the party city. No definite plan was suggested, but a start was made toward a per- | manent organization when Chalrman | Willlam T. Baggett promised to name a committee soon. The new political organization that proposes ' to benefit the Democratic party in this city will be known as the | Jeftersonian Democratic Central League | of California. The call which was is- | sued for the meeting on July § sug- gested the organization of a Jefferson- fan Democratic League, but made no mention of the word “central.” Whether | this was an intentional omission is not | known. Arthur H. Barendt, who was subse- quently made chairman of the commit- tee on permanent organization, moved that the league be known by the fore- | going title, and that suited the wishes of those present. | William T. Baggett presided Bl\d’ John L. Polito was elected secretary.| Charles Gildea opened the proceedings| by reading the callfor the meeting. He sald: “The present political conditions here and elsewhere throughout the State demonstrate the necessity for a better and more actlve organization of our party in San Franeisco. The call was signed by Willlam T. Baggett, Robert P. Toy, Theo J. Roche, Danfel O'Connor, M. C. Hassett, W. 8. Bailey, John Polito and Charles Gildea. MANY PARTY LEADERS PRESENT. All these took an active part in the proceedings. There were almost fifty | other Democrats from various parts of the State present. Among those not mentioned in the general call were Ar-| thur H. Barendt, Lewis F. Byington, Robert Ferral, Willlam M. Cannon of | this city and Judge Gibson of Stockton. | The consultation of politicians lasted | more than three hours. During the proceedings Judge Gib- son of Stockton arose and asked, “What | is the programme? “There is no programme,” answered Baggett from the chalir. | What is back of the movement was not given publicity. Arthur H. Ba- rendt, who moved the appointment of @ committee on permanent organiza- tion, expressed a desire that he should not be made the chairman of the leading committee, but Baggett insisted upon naming him. 1 TROQUOIS' CHIEF NOT THERE.\ To what extent the new organiza- tion proposes to take matters out of the Democratic central committee's hands those who were present declined to say. One fact that mav carry some significance is found in the statement made by Albert M. Johnson of the | Iroquois Club, that he was not in- | vited to attend he next meeting will be called by man Baggett when he gets ready | to announce the appointment of com- mittees on permanent organization and | constitution and by-laws, which may be some time during the present week. In the meantime the Democrats all | over the State will await the result. The incident is further noted in the | Democratic camp that the Iroquois war- | riors who get their political Instru HOHS in the wigwam of Johnson were prominent in yesterday’'s powwow. it observed that ersonians who were reported | to rally around the standard of City Attorney W.

Statentents of employes of the two companies give color to the rumo: of trouble. It Is sald there Is an air | of coldness between the two officials | when they are compelled to converse, | and that they are never seen riding | over the roads together, a thing Foster frequently did with other managers. The supposed cause of the difficulty between the two men is the manner in which trains have been cut out on the California and Northwestern be- tween San Rafael and San Francisco, thus sending the travel by way of the North Shore Raflroad. When inter- | viewed on the subject last evening, Ag- ler said: “There is nothing in the rumor that T ern Pacific in the management of ti California Northwestern and the North Shore systéms.

The woman drank the poison about| 10 o'clock. She was hurried to the hos- pital by her husband and Policeman William Quinlan. When the three ar- rived there they found the place locked | and could arouse po one. Nearly an| hour later the ambulance arrived from | a call with Steward Wade Stone. Dr.| Wilillam Buell,, the doctor in charge | of the hospital, was summoned, but the M a| poison had done 1ts work. Had there been a doctor in the Po-| trero hospital, Mrs. Hamilton would probably have lived. Steward Stone | s: that he was ordered from the Central Emergency Hospital to take his ambulance to Seventh and Folsom streets and convey a paralyzed man to the City and County Hospital. He in-/| formed the Central Emergency people | that if he went he would have to lock the hospital, and was told that- the doc- tor on duty said that he must make the gun. While he was gone, Mrs. Ham- titon®arrived at the hospital. She was| kept getting worse. When Stone re- turned with the ambulance she was un- consclous.

One of the most important documents in the case is a letter from Alfaro to President Cabrera dated June 9, 1903, wherein Alfaro says that on the estab- lishment of a new Government in Sal- vador an alllance, offensive and defen- sive, shall be entered into between Sal- It is charged that two years later, or in 1905, President Cabrera grew sus- picious of Alfaro and feared he would publish these ‘compromising documents, and it was only through the efforts of| the American Consul that Alfaro could leave Guatemala..

FLAGSTAFF, July 8.—At 2 this afternoon at a peint four miles west of here passenger train No. 4, the eastbound limited, was wrecked. Fireman Edward Pillsbury was caught under the engine and scalded to death. Engineer Goldsworthy were scalded and he was also injured about the chest, but no passengers were hurt. The accident was caused by one of the front trucks of the engine leaving the track. That the fatality list is small is due to the presence of mind of Engineer Goldsworthy, who applled the brakes and remained at his post until the engine started to turn over. Then he jumped. ‘The engine turned over on its left side and a composite car and dining car slipped over the crest of an embankment. . The three Pullmans were left standing on the track. TOPEKA, Kans., July 8.—According to advices received here the only pass- enger injured in the Santa Fe wreck at Flagstaff was Mrs. Roberts of Oak- land, Cal, who sustalned a 'severe sprain of the ankle. - —_— 2 o'clock /ESCAPING REFORMATORY BOYS KILL DLOODHOUNDS Recaptured After Exchanging Shots ‘With Pursuers and Slaying Two Dogs.
