STATE BOARD oF TRADE.

Tariff Duties on Fruits DfscusSed-No
Display at the Midwinter Fair.
SAN Francisco, Nov. 15.-The State
Board of Trade met yesterday afternoon
in regular monthly session.
Secretary Maslin briefly recounted the
efforts made to obtain fund for the pur-
pose of paying the expenses of trip to
Washington of a representative of the
California fruit-growers' interests, with
the view to secure favorable consideration
of those interests at the hands of the
Ways and Means Committee of Congress.
Up TO the present time but $50 has been
subscribed for the purpose. Colonel Irish
had been requested to go on III that ca
pacty and had consented.
Colonel Irish SAID that before the action
referred to was taken by the board he had
written to Mr.. Wilson, Chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee at Washing
ton, asking for such treatment of the
tariff IN relation to fruits as would har-
monte with the revenue policy of the
committee, and yet would not be injuri-
Gus to California interests. lie was not
present at the meeting when his name
was proposed as delegate to Washing
ton, aud it was not matter in which he
had any direct personal interest. In view
OF the indifference shown by the fruit
growers in the matter, it appeared that
they felt little real concern about the
tariff, and that their success depended
upon conditions of soil and climate and
not upon legislation.
William ii. Mills made a witty speech
in relation TO the remark of Colonel Irish
upon the tariff. His principal point was
that so long as the other interests are pro-
tected by the tariff those of California
could not afford to be left uncovered.
He thought it wise to have Colonel Irish
go TO Washington instead of RepubIi-
can, who could have no influence with
the committee.
After some further discussion, which
resulted in no definite action, the board
took up the question of making an ex-
hibit at the Midwinter Fair. 1t was
finally decided that as the various coun-
lies would make displays there should be
no exhibit by the board. Instead. the
exhibit of State products now in the
rooms will be enlarged and rearranged.
1t will be open to visitors every day and
evening during the fair.

MIDWINTER FAIR.
Contract Let for the Northern Citrus
Belts Exhibit Building.

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 10. Count e. De
Valcourt of Vermont has arrived in this
city, together with assistants, who are
engaged with him in the construction of
the Oriental village at the Midwinter
Fair. This concession promises to be
one of the most attractive of all the ex-
hibits in Midway Plaisance, and will
cover $1,000 square feet. Designs have
been submitted and approved, contracts
awarded and work will be commenced at
once. This concession will comprise in
Cairo thirty feet wide, along which will
be arranged bazaars, presideded over by
natives of Constantinople and Cairo. 1t
Will be under the management of a cor
poration representing S155, 200.
The contract for the Northern Citrus
Belt exhibit has been granted, and work
was commenced on the structure to-day.
The cost of this exhibit will be at
least $4,000 and as much more as neces-
sary to make the exhibits complete in
every respect. Work on it is being
pushed with all possible rapidity, and it
is the idea to have this exhibit completely
finished and opened to visitors on Janu-
ary 1st without fail. The exhibit will
prove to be a most elaborate one when
completed.
In less than two weeks time the ex-
position grounds will be inclosed by a
fence, contract for the construction of
the same having been let and work COM
menced. 1t will take two miles of fence
to inclose the grounds.

Directors of the League Hold a Meet

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-The Board Of
Directors Of the National Baseball League
met here to-day. Matters with which
they had to do were chiefly routine.
President Young mad in his satehel all
the notes of the National League given
when the league bought out and assumed
the obligations of the American Associa-
ton two years ago. All the notes were
cancelled, showing that the league had
entirely paid off the debt accrued in this
transaction, and also showing that the
league had a prosperous season. Consld-
erable business was disposed OF at the
meeting of the league itself during the
afternoon, the first of which was the re-
port of the Board of Directors, which
was received and accepted. Much time
was taken up with unimportant add-
tions to the bylaws of the championship
rules. The following directors were
elected: Z. Young, Chairnan; a. H.
Soden, A. B. Talcott, G. ii. Byrne, James
A. Hart, w. w. Kerr and John L. Brush.
President Young was appointed COM
mittee of one to prepare of schedule for
1894. A. H. Soden, G. H. Byrne and n.
u. Young were elected members OF the
National Board of Arbitration.

NATIONAL BANKING SYSTEM.
Bill TO Remedy Defects In the Presen

Bill TO Remedy Defects In the Present
Law Being Prepared.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-Congressman
William NJ. Springer, Chairman of the
Committee on Banking and Currency, is
preparing bill to remedy the defects of
the national banking system, which he
will submit to the members of the COM
mittee, and hopes TO get it before Congress
soon after Congress assemblies.
He says the near approach to the time
when the Government bonds will be
payable, the limited volume of such
bonds and their high prices demonstrates
that other security for circulation must
be resorted TO if we are to have enough
currency for the needs of the country.
TO that end he win propose that bonds
of States, of counties and OF certain mu-
inequalities, with proper regulation and
under Government supervision, shall be
utilized for the purpose of securing clrcu-
lation, and all banks, State, as well as ma
tlonal. depositing such securities will be
permitted 10 take out currency TO at least
W per cent. OF their par value.
Provision viii also be made for addi-
tionai security IN case of the slightest de-
probation IN the value of these securi-
ties, and the Government is to assume
the sole responsibility for the redemption
of such notes in coin on demand. for
which purpose it should keep a coin re-
serve of at least 20 per cent. of the out
standing circulation. This would relieve
banks of keeping bank reserves or with
holding any part of the currency issued
from circulation among the people,

sANDBAGGED AND ROBBED.
Tho Treasurer of Railroad Held Up
at Chicago.


CHICAGO, Nov. ia local paper has
an extra saying that this morning j. A
Drake, Treasurer and Paymaster of the
Indiana, Illinois and Iowa Railroad, went
10 the Office of the road and placed in a
satchel money to meet the company's
payroll, and started with it. when he was
attacked by footpads and sandbagged and
robbed of the entire amount.
How much the satchel contained is un-
known. The officers Of the road refuse
to say, but rumor puts it at between S25,-
600 and $4,000. So far as is known there
is no clew to the robbers. Drake is said
to be badly hurt, but the officers of the
road refuse to divulge his whereabouts.
The robbery occurred in the Rookery
building, in the business heart of the city,
at A. NJ, when but few people were in
the building. Some time later mail
carrier passing brakes office heard
lying on the floor, bruised from severe
blows and unconscious. "Pve been
robbed by two men" he said teebly, and
the disordered condition OF the room gave
evidence of struggle. The carrier un-
derstood him to say there was SO, 900 in
the valise Detectives were at once put
on the chase.
1t is one of the boldest robberies that
has occurred in Chicago for years.
The robbery has caused intense excite
ment in the business district, occurring,
as it did, in the very heart of the city.
The railroad has heretofore paid in
checks, but sent out circular the lst OF
the month saying that hereafter the men
would be given currency. 1t is thought
the robbers heard of the change. The
police overhauled many suspects and to-
night it is reported two men have been
orrastad

Senator Perkins Brother Passes Away
at Oroville.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15.-To-day ex-
Governor and Senator George G. Perkins
received the sad tidings of the death of
his brother, D. K. Perkins, prominent
citizen and business man of Oroville.
About week ago, while Mr.. Perkins
was on business mission to his mines in
the mountains, he was badly injured by
the capsizing of loaded wagon. The
wagon fell upon Mr.. Perkins legs and
he was pinned to the ground, where he re-
manned tor several hours in drenching,
sIeet-like rain. Finally he succeeded in
getting the great weight from his legs,
when he found he could not walk. Some
time afterward he was found by his son,
who had been sent in search of him. The
son lifted his father upon horse and
took him home. Physicians were sum-
moned to relieve the sutferings of the in
jured man. Everything possible was
done, but the injuries sustained proved
fatal, and at p. AI. yesterday MIR. Per-
kins died. For the last twenty years the
deceased was engaged in the business Of
general merchandising. He was con-
nected with the firm of Perkins q Wise,
which was favorably known throughout
the northern portion of California.

Mysterious Visit of the President to

Mysterious Visit of the President to
the Metropolis.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 15.-Much mystery
exists to-day as to the Whereabouts of the
President and Secretary Lamont.
Secretary Thuber said that the Presi-
dent was taking day for recreation and
would be back at his desk to- morrow.
At the War Department it was said that
the President and Lamont had gone to
New York, for what purpose none would
say.
New YORK, Nov. 15.-The Eoening
World says: President Cleveland unex-
pectedly arrived here early this morning,
and drove to the Victoria Hotel. He
came alone. He took breakfast in his
room. The object of the visit is mys-
terry. He had not appeared at any down
town places where he might be expected
to visit up to 2 O'Clock this afternoon.
Shortly after breakfast the President
drove OF i'll a carriage, and was absent
from the hotel for several hours. 1T is
thought the President came here for
the purpose of comforting with promi-
nent specialists in regard to the aillnent
which he has been suffering from. This,
however, Joseph ID. Bryant, Cleveland S
physician, denies. He said Cleveland
was at present enjoying good health, and
any statements to the contrary were un-
true.
The President made private call on
some personal friends. and took a stroll
in Central Park. He had luncheon with
DR.. and Mrs. Bryant.
President Cleveland and Secretary La
mont returned to the hotel about o. clock,
where they spent an hour or two. The
President, with the Secretary and Mrs.
Lamont, dined at DR.. Bryant's, after
which the whole party repaired to the
Broadway Theater. where Francis Viii
son is playing in "Erminie." After the
theater Cleveland and Lamont drove to
Jersey City, where they boarded the
1880 express for Washington. What
ever has been the object of the
Presidents visit, it is certain by the
denials of his friends, and by his ap-
pearance tonight that any operation
whatever has not been performed. His
flying visit here can only be explained
in the words of Secretary Lamont,
strictly private business"
