Cos SIP FROM The COAST.
Close OF the California Floral So
Ciety's Exb, bisiOn.

SAN Francisco, Oct. 26.-ISpecial Tele-
gram to THE BEE. The California state
floral society has just closed u very success
full exhibition in this city. In the collection
shown were some of the rarest plants known
to florists in any part of the world. Most of
these plants had been cultivated under glass.
It was too early In the season to show
the natural flowers of California. The
long dry season had just closed
and the wet one has just
set in, but had made very few
flowers in the open air available for public
exhibitions. But there was such wealth
and glory of chrysanthemums os had never
been seen here before A few OF these
probably were forced under glass. But this
hardy plant does not require any such stimu-
liant. The Japanese have brought their nat
ural flower to this coast, and they have
shown the florists here what can be done
With them.
The fight between Jack Delaney and
Jimmy Murphy, at the Occidental
club last evening, was most sensational The
! ordinary patron of prize fights has become
SO accustomed of late to forty and sixty
round contests lasting till the early hours of
morning, that rattling good fight at quick
PAGES does his heart good. The Murphy
Delaney mill was all that the lover OF hot
contest could desire. Not only that but it
| has brought Jimmy Murphy, a new man, to
| the front. There can be no doubt that, after
witnessing last nights contest, some of the
other clubs will wish to match him against
| some leading fighter OF his class.
j. Triestail arrived from Melbourne this
| morning with u stable of six thorough bred
! horses. Their names and weights are as
follows Bismarck, six years Old, $500
| pounds; Brown Ben, six years, 1000; Boss,
| three years, $500; Young Malcolm, five
| wears, 500 and Rose (also Clydesdale), six
years, 800. Triestail reports them in the
best of condition after their long voyage.
! BY the time the rival clIques get through
| with their disputes over the Sutro tunnel
there will not be much left for outside
| shareholders. The mining companies will
not be losers pending settlement, the saw
ing, in royalty to Con California
| nearly $l50,0OO per annum. The
! most probable result will be surrender of
| the company's property to the COmstock
CORPORATIONS, which should have owned it
| long ago. There have been too many axes to
| grind i'll the management for II long time past
| r. E. Pineo, of IRA, Ceylon, arrived today
| on an Australian steamer. With him were
| two servants, man and wife, natives of India,
| but VINO came from Ceylon. They are of "A
dark complexion, and the woman is probably
| the first of her race that has ever
| come to America. She attracted great at
| tention, owing to the fact that a ring is
| fastened TO her nose, and which canuot be
| removed. 1t is the custom of her people to
| wear such ornaments. The woman and man
| were not dressed in their native garbs, as
| the weather was too cold. After remaining
a few days MIR. Rineo will visit Washington
| and then 20 to New York. His peculiar
! servants attracted considerable attention
| ABOUT the Palace hotel. The husband and
| wife speak the Singalese language, and as
| their master speaks IL fuently, there is no
| trouble for him IN understanding their wants.
| Three years ago there were about fifteen
| Car loads of California fruit sent to New
| York. Last year there were eighty car loads
| Of California fruit handled in New York.
| This year the total shipment to the eastern
| market will be about two hundred car loads.
| The California people are naturally de-
| lighted with this rapid development of new
| market for their product, and are hurrylng
forward all they can this year and making
| great preparations for next season. Not less
| than 500 car loads is the estimated Shipment
| next year.
There is an impression among the people
of California that the Chinese merchants of
| this city are in favor of landing the Chinese.
This is mistake, The evils OF Chinese i'm
| migration resulting in the passing of the re-
strction laws has ruined business. Large
| arrivals within the past lew years OF Chinese
| at this port has overstocked the labor mar
| kets. Hundreds of them are idle. The
| mines have become exhausted and the
| two other Industries are now conducted
| with white labor. These facts have been
laid before the Chinese government by the
| merchants OF the CITY through the Chinese
| minister, and have caused the government
| to see some meaus OF remedying the evil.
| The greater portion of the Chinese who have @
| come to this country have become thoroughly
| acquainted with ITS principal industries and
| with this fact in view, the Chinese govern
| IN ent proposes to erect large manufacturing
| establishments. open up new industries,
| promote those already established, construct
| railroads, and in fact back syndicates in all
| enterprising schemes. Within the next
| twenty years there will be an entire change
in the present customs of China, which the
| government is beginning 10 realize are de-
trlment TO its progress. This Is the only
| mems by which'China can protect the inter
| ests of its merchants abroad and maintai n
its relations with FOREIGN GoYernmenl
