SAN Francisco, Aug. .26.-Thts morning
Mr. Kalloclis condition reported as
unchanged. Notwithstanding the uniformly
favorable report of the physicians. those
who still fingered about the vicinity OF the
Temple persisted in the belief that he would die,
and that the favorable reports were designed TO
keep them quiet. Kearney processes to share III
that belief in common with the bulk of his fol-
lowers.
Everything is quiet about the city. The precau-
tions about the Central Station are still maintained,
and two companies Of the National Guard remain
on duty there to relieve the police, who have re-
turned to their regular duty. The offices OF me
Chronicle are still guarded.
Tonight Kalloch's condition is continually i'm
proving and It is now reported that he IS OUT
of DANGER though the report is prObablypremature'

debt and a restoration oi the income tax. The
platform denOunces Communism in all rs forms
and phases y but the effect of nine-tenths ot the
Greenback Oratory aud writing Is TO spread the
COmmunlstic idea that there is an antagonlsm be-
tween capital and labor and that the Government
is controlled by bankers and other wealthy men,
who use it to oppress the producing classes. The
foundation of the whole sott-mOney faith is the
notion that times are made hard by legislation in
the interest of the mOneycd classes ana can only
be made better by legislation hostile to those
