was opened to receive him Clarke grinned
at the turnkey, but only shook his head
when spoken to. The presence of few
reporters was all that prevented him from

removed from his wrists. When asked If
he had any statement to make he did not
raise his head, and when the question was
repeated lie replied in choking voice:

LEATHER FEDERATION.
The Merits of State Products Shown t


The Merits of State Products Shown to
the Coast Seamen.
The Leather Federation, which consists
of the tanners and curriers', shoemakers and
harness makers, sent five delegates to the
Coast Seamen's meeting on Monday night
to exhibit samples of all kinds Of cheap
Eastern boots and shoes. They cut the
samples into pieces in order to show the
quality Of the leather, and also brought
samples OF California production and clearly
showed the superiority of the home article.
The delegates proved to the satisfaction
Of all that 81 90 can buy as good a working
shoe made OF California leather as can be
produced anywhere in the world, aud from
SIS 90 to 81 Will purchase a dress shoe of
home production that will Outwear any made
in the United States.
The committee has started out to visit all
the labor unions in this city and some ex-
pense is connected with its work by reason
OF the cutting up OF samples which, of
course, cost money. Between Chinese and
Eastern competition the sho emakers are
having continual struggle. The retail
dealer OF boots and shoes to a great extent
Injuries the business OF the leather workers.
There is more profit for the dealer in
cheap Eastern goods than in the California
product, so that when purchaser does not
ask Tor the white labor California-made
article lie or she Is generally shown Eastern
made goods to choose from.

The Republicans to Meet for Pre-.

A meeting Of the Republican County
Committee will be held this evening at 4f9
California street. in the rooms of the State
Central Committee, for the purpose of dis
cussing preliminaries for the coming cam
paign. The new members who were
selected few days ago will take part in the
proceedings, and it is expected that some
definite steps will be taken toward perma-
nent organization.
The Democratic machinery has already
been put in motion, and the Republicans
are beginning to feel the necessity for some
concerted action. 1t is more than likely,
therefore, that the County Committee will
this evening consult as to the most ad-
visable method Of organized work, and may
outline general policy for future action
in the county.
