Sam Francisco,s Bid Cor tine Conxent,on.

CHICAGO. Nov. 16-M. II. De Young, proprie-
tor of the san Francisco Chronicle who arrived
in the city today. said in an interview with q
reporter this evening:
The business men of San Francisco have
authorized me to make any promises to the
national committee may see fit, pledging them
selves to carry out those promises If the conveu-
ton be given to our city. We have already
agreed to pay the railroad expenses of all the
delegates TO the Coast and return. We will do a
great deal more which / do not care to make
public. San Francisco has no candidate to
force ON the convention in case she secures it.,
but there Is one thing the Coast will expect OF
the next administration, whether II be Repub-
lican or Democratic-a place In the cabinet
The reason is purely business one, entirely
apart from politics. The Coast suf.
fers from lack of acquaintance with its
needs There are thousand things OF vital
Importance commercially to the Coast upon
which no one In the East, no matter how we'll
informed, Can properly give advice to the presi-
dent Among the many such questions are the
desert act, the Boring sea fisheries, Hawaiian
and Australian trade and communication and
coast defenses Few realize the exact nature of
the latter. In our present condition few Chill
can ships could blow san Francisco to pieces.
