CRUSHED BY AN AWNING.
A Singular Accident at POmona-Two
Young Ladies Hurt.

POMONA, CAL, August 49, Special. ]
Sunday evening, as Misses Hattie and
Ella Fowler were passing down Second
street, on their way to church, the avn
ing in front OF the city grocery gave
way, and without moments warning,
crashed to the sidewalk, hitting the two
young ladies', and rendering them in
sensible for time being. A crowd rushed
to the scene, and upon raising the heavy
awning found one of the girls with a
badly bruised and sprained ankle, while
the younger was bent double and is suf-
fering from severe scalp wound, and
sprained ankle and bruised shoulder.
They were at once taken to the
rooms OF Mrs. Kellogg, and
Drs. Rose and Rice attended
them, after which they were carried to
their homes, and are in fair way of re-
covery. There being no pressure on the
awning, and no wind, it was strange
accident, and early this morning every
awning in town was inspected.
Terrible Storm at Valparaiso.
SAN Francisco, August 1S.-The Call
prints the following: GA sailor who
shipped on the American bark Portland
Lloyds, at Valparaiso, Chill, has written
his mother in this city an account OF a
terrible storm in Valparaiso bay. Fol-
lowing are extracts from the letter:
July 2d-Blowing gale and the waves
are breaking over the city. Shipping is
in great danger.
July 3,-A Nova Scotia ship an English
bark and steamboat went down last
night. The bark went ashore near the
consulate, and the Nova Scotia is on the
rocks, fast going to pieces.
The letter was evidently sent on board
the mail steamer bound north before the
storm abated. Since then no advices have
been received as to the Portland Lloyds,
and it is not known whether the vessel
weathered the gale or not.

streets were filled with marching dele
CATION all this afternoon and this even
ing, and when the last train arrived to-
night, the city seemed to be overlooking.
The sidewalks were blocked in front of
the hotels and headquarters, and every
body was talking about the various
phases of the convention which will
open tomorrow. Congressman Thomas
j. Clunie arrived at 4 O'Clock and was re-
ceived by q committee and escorted to
the California theatre, where a public
reception was gwen him by the citizens

of his efforts in securing new public
building for the city.
Besides the regular delegates to the

been arriving all day and marching
from the railroad stations to their head
quarters, accompanied by bands of
music. Among the largest organizations
were the Manhattan club, of San Fran
cisco, and the Tammany club, of Los
Angeles, which arrived at O'Clock this
evening. Practically all the delegates
are on the ground tonight, and the sup
portecs of the different gubernatorial
candidates are still making an active
canvass, but the principal interest is
taken in the result of the endeavor of
Stephen NJ. White to secure the endorse
ment OF the convention as United
States senator
The question of endorsing White for
U. S. Senator has cut great figure in
the Craftsmanship of the convention, but
the matter seems to be settled definitely
now, and the probabilities are that
there will be no contest tomorrow in the
selection of chairman. Byron Waters,
of San Bernardino, was at first regarded
as the only candidate for the chairman
ship, but ex-Congressman Jas. II. Budd,
of Stockton, afterward appeared in
the field. Mr.. Budd, however,
expressed no great desire for
the position, as he preferred
to be on the floor to fight Whites en-
sell in nomination for the governorship.
contest, provided Waters would give
assurance that he would not attempt to
restrict the debate on the proposition to
endorse White. Mr.. Waters has evil
IDENTIFY given this assurance as, the rep
resentatives of the four gubernatorial
candidates held a caucus tonight, and
practically agreed upon Waters for
chairman. The question of the secre-
taryship remains unsettled. There
are three candidates in the field, A. G.
Berthrer and James III. Love, of San
Francisco, and w. H. Dwyer of Fresno.
The convention will be called to order
at 2 O'Clock tomorrow afternoon, by
John Daggett, of Siskiyou, vice chair
man of the state central committee.
The Manhattan club, of San Fran

the streets tonight and serenaded the
four candidates for governor, who
responded with short speeches.
