The international Press Association
to Meet in San Francisco.
The annual convention of the Interna-
tional Press Association, or League OF
Press Clubs, is to be held in San Fran
cisco in January, 1892. 1t is said that
there will probably not be over $50 visit
ors, but they will relate their experiences
in California to thousands and thousands
of people to whom they talk through the
columns of their papers every day.
Such great newspaper men as Charles
A. Dana, Murat Halstead, Eugene Field
and Chauncey NJ. Depew will come, and
they will give US some very interesting
talks. Max O'Rell and Henry Labouch-
ere will also be invited, and they un-
doubtedly will attend Two special
trains will be engaged to convey the dele
gates, one starting from New York and
the other over the Pennsylvania Road by
way of Pittsburg. The delegates will be
picked up on the way and the trains will
meet at Chicago, and from there go to
San Francisco direct. There will be dele
gates from the press clubs of England
and Canada, both countries being now
represented in the International League.
The press clubs of Paris have applied to
be admitted to membership, and they
will undoubtedly be represented at the
meeting in San Francisco.

EUROPEAN HOPS.
Many Fields So BIIghted That the Hop:
VIII Not Be Picked.

Many Fields SO Bl1ghted That the Hops
VIII Not BE Picked.
Messrs. w. II. & H. lie May, hop fac
tors of London, in their latest circular
say:
''We have delayed issuing our report of
the state of the hop crop that we might be
in better position to speak of the quail
ity. Having finished our personal sur
vey of the plantations we are sorry to
have to report that III almost every dis
trict there are many gardens that are so
badly blighted, either by mold or ver-
min, and in some instances by both that
they cannot possibly be worth picking.
At the same time we were pleased to find
in every parish few gardens that had
escaped the ravageS of mold, vermin or
wind, and these Will produce very excel
lent samples, and some of the Golding
grOwths in Mid and East Kent, and tho
Fuggles in the Weald and Sussex, are
simply beautiful.
There will also be few very fine
growths in Worcester, Hereford, Surrey
and Hants, but unfortunately the two lat
ter counties appear to have suffered con-
siderably; but there is no doubt that the
frightful gales of last month, and the
spread of mold and the late increase of
vermin, has lessened the crop by fully
one-third from what was at one time eX-
pected, and it is our opinion to-day that
when the Government crop returns are
out, it will be found that the crop OF hops
picked this year will not exceed e200,000
old duty.
"With regard to the hops that have al
ready arrived, we are pleased to be able
to report that many of them show better
quality than is generally the case with
the first pickings, and they are being
taken freely by the buyers at the low
prices now current. The 1880 growth is
practically exhausted, as we predicted
last year it would be. The market was
never more bare of usable hops, conse-
quently we should not be surprised if
much higher prices are realized for tho
choice growths than is confidently pre-
dicted in some channels"

SAN Francisco, Oct. S.-A large num-
Der of lawyers and politicians assembled
in the Supreme Court this afternoon at 2
O'Clock to listen to the proceedings in the
habeas corpus case of Edgar II. Hay
mond, the witness who refused to obey a
subpoena of the Grand Jury, and who was
fined $500 and ordered imprisoned for
five days for contempt. Colonel Greed
Raymond was present, as was also Cen
eral Barnes and Attorney General Hart.
Raymond appeared on his own behalf,
and District Attorney Barnes represented
the people. Among the other lawyers
who took an interest in the proceedings
were ex-Judge Cope, eX-Judge Rhoades,
Colonel Ben Morgan and Barclay Henley,
foreman of the Grand Jury
All the Justices were present except
Mcfarland
Greed Raymond preceded the argu-
ment in the case by asking permission to
move for a writ of prohibition. It was
arranged that he should be heard after
Ghe consideration of the Raymond case.
District Attorney Barnes then read the
return to the writ of habeaS CORPUS, set
ting forth the circumstances of Havs
mond's refusal to answer the Grand
Jury,s subpoena, his citation for contempt
and fine and imprisonment for contempt
by Judge Wallace.
Edgar B. Raymond, the petitioner,
then gave his reasons for believing that
the Grand Jury is illegal. He simply
contended that the appointment of an
elisor was illegal.
Attorney Raymond asked for writ of
prohibition to prevent Stephen IT. Gage
nom being fined and imprisoned for con-
tempt tomorrow.
The court took the matter under ad-
visement.
Chief Justice Beatty said he thought it
doubtful if decision could be given be-
fore the court reaches Los Angeles.
LATER.-The Supreme Court denied
the application for writ of prohibition
on behalf of Stephen T. Gage. and he
will have to appear before Judge Wallace
tomorrow and show cause why he
should not be punished for contempt in
refusing to obey the summons OF the
Grand Jury.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. S.-The commit
tee having charge of the organization of
the Merchants Transcontinental Associ-
alton is striving to make the general
meeting to be held at the Chamber of
Commerce on the 18th success. The
committee will meet daily, commencing
on Monday.
Charles f. Crocker, Vice President of
the Southern Pacific Company, stated in
an interview to-day that if the association
proposed to make fight for a lower
freight tariff it would not succeed. He
said that the railroads were firmly bound
together IN maintaining the present
rates. 1t was hardly probable that
any company would dare to violate
the compact, or withdraw from the agree
ment in order to secure freight from San
francisco. If any company did consider
It worth taking at the loss of it's share of
the overland freight it would have MANY
obstacles to overcome.
In the first place. said Mr.. Crocker.
''the Southern Pacific Company controls
nearly all the terminal points in Califor-
MIA. 1t would refuse to give through
bills OF lading to those shipping by the
road, taking it at the lowest price, and it
would change local freight rates on all
such shipments"
But" continued Mr.. Crocker, ''if the
merchants will organize and appoint a
capable traffic man at the head of affairs
who will not be unreasonable, they can
accomplish much good. For instance
take any commodity where the price is
how the railroad company would be per-
Tectly willing, upon reasonable undertak
ing, to lower the freight in order to make
it profitable for the producer to send his
goods to market. As it stands now, if
we reduce the freight tariff in order
to assist the producer, the constitutions
of the States through which our lines
pass prohibit US from raising it again at
the next successful season. A good rail-
road man representing the leading
freight-shippers of this city could gain
many concessions, if reasonable grounds
were offered for prantinSr Them
