BEER SELLERS IN CoUHcI1.-The retail
beer sellers Of Sacramento assembled in mass
nesting at Turner Hall last evening. At the
appointed hour the meeting was called to
order By II. Kohue. Charles Schepp was
elected Chairman and i. G.. Boeder Seere-
ts1y. The Chairman stated that the object
Of the meeting was to endeavor TO have all
the retail dealers in beer to form an assoeia-
ton for the purpose Of having ne price Of
bser reduced from S. to 81 per barrel. That
during tins winter, when malt hops and Other
stock used in the manufacture of beer was
very high, the retailers did not grumble al
the advance made in the price by brewers.
Since the articles mentioned have come down
in price, and the cost of keeping beer in hot
weather necessitstes the use Of large amount
OF ice. they claim that the price should be
reduced TO seven dollars. Mr.. Roeder stated
that brewers of this city were going around
now to parties who sell large quantities OF
beer ana offering to sell to them for So 30,
and he thought all retailers should be treated
alike no matter what quantity they might
sell daily He was in favor of banding them
selves together, and if the brewers of this
city would not come to terms TO purchase
beer of San Francisco brewers. Others ex-
pressed themselves in the same manner, and
en- motion committee was appointed TO visit
every retail dealer in the city and secure his
co-opalation in the movement. The commit
tee is composed of the following named gen.
tlemen: II. Kohne, Charles Dohn, J. B,
Haeb5chman, Stephen Renner Owen Han
nan and D. J. Considine. This committee
will meet at 10 a. N. to-day at the ConcOrdia
Saloon, on Fourth street, and Immediately
enter upon their duties The meeting ad-
iourned TO Tuesday evening, when the COM
mittee viii be ready to report.
METROPOLITAN THEATER. Emerson's Min
strels had good house last evening. The
troupe is good one of the modern minstrel
order. There is not very much new in the
programme, but all that is done is well done.
The vocalists II the company are superior,
and the satisfaction of the auditors with them
was very Enthusiastically manifested. Emer-
son and Reed are, ct course, the leaders, and
they are equal to the positions. Reed is an
inimitable low comedian, while Emerson, as
a character actor Of the minstrel ordsr is too
well known to call for remark. The
original Big -Four were especially success
full in their extravaganza acrobstic exercises.
Wilson and Cameron, two grotesqEe ground
snd-lofty tumblers and dancers, were notably
prominent in the programme, which was
varied rapid and gave entire satisfaction, if
we except q few old jokes that might we'll be
replaced by new ones. A second performance
