General Dickinson Explains Battery
AS Affairs.

AS Affairs.
General John FL. Dickinson has 10 his
possession the report Of Major Easton~in
regard to the affairs of Light Battery A,
bu. for reasons of his own he is not will
ing at the present time to give it to the
public. nfact. he looks upon the whole
matter as sort of tempest in a teapot and
thinks it should not be given the natural
dignity of notorIely.
Il can only say" be stated yesterday,
"that my belief is that there IS nothing
wrong on either side. Both parties have
been little strong headed and both will
see that they are wrong. In this age. when
all men have the right of free petition
wnen they think affairs are not being
conducted in way to suit their individual
tancies, l have small patience for any
man who sits idly by for an entire year
and declines to call attention to thing he
fancies needs investigation. The battery
was to have held o meeting tonight for
the purpose of taking action, but l sent
word asking them not to do so until such
time as could appear before them and
ask them to POSTPONE their action until
Monday evening. at which time l would be
there to give my views of the case. They
promised to do so AID for the time being
the matter Is matter of the past"

PUSHED FOR MONEY.
Heavy Indebtedness of w. Frese
& Co.

& Co.
Commercial circles are stirred ND at
present over the failure of w. Frese & Co..
dealers in foreign merchandise, at 1913
California street. Their liabilities amount
to S142,7 40 SO, and their assets to SOS, $50.
Among the principal creditors are the
following: Anglo California Bank, S34, i.
O6S 10; Bank of British Columbia, S16,.
594; Toy. Morgan & Co. Of London, $1,000
w. Frese Sr. of Hamburg, Germany.
S4675; Anglo-California Bank, $4,000; Fort
Bragg Redwood Company. S11.oO0; Hugh
Hogarth of Glasgow. Scotland, S1O,4S7; P.
B. Cornwall. S21. 600; Daniel Meyer, S225O
E. J. de Saba Jr., $500; Charles Bach,
$1293; Fnlch & Martin of Chile, $4,000:
Thomas D MAP & Son of Glasgow. Scot
land. S3253; Peter Denniston s. Co. of
Scotland. 1851. 1t seems that from the
schedule that the firm had borrowed
money from all available sources during
the year, and that all the indie btedn@ S.
has been contracted within that time.
The fact that 1t has been hard pushed for
money Is shown by the fact that a seat in
the Produce Exchange was pledged fol
$816 to secure note

that 1t Is unanimous save on one point
An announcement of like authoritative
weight was made some time ago in favor
Of the United States, but of course the
arbttratOrs have changed their minds since
that time. leaving the correspondent still
infallible in getting at information. A
mlnd-reader may find secreteo pin. out
T. g points of arbitration between nations
briStle with sharper difficulties. ana those
who want the exact facts had DETER wall
for the decision itself
The announcement has been MADE 20
the House Of Commons that the blockade
of Siam has been raised. This is sure
indication that all difficulties IN the way
of a settlement have been overcome. and
that France and England remain ON GOOD
terms. Siam suffers more from the money
indemnity than from the loss OF territory,
of which she has still great area Ior mel
small population. But what Will france
do with her new empire?
Gold now begins TO flow in Roodly vol.
ume from London to the United States'
and may be expected to continue unless
the Bank Of England raises its rate.
withdrawal of $4,000 has been made
for shipment, and altogether about $780,
600 Is under movement. a considerable por-
ton of which comes to Chicago. The har-
vestis certain to set money flowing toward
this country, and return to business con-
idence may be confidently expected. The
extraordinary fail which has taken place
in speculative investments must DO good
turn TO those who have prnfited by the de-
moralization Of the market.
The Keweenaw of the North American
Navigation line Is in port with a thumuing
cargo via Panama of 1000 tons. load
which no other steamer has brought to
San Francisco. The Progresn, another
large steamer. Is soon to be on the route,
and then the company can accommodate
freight to the full extent OF immr date re-
Quirements and with the regularity Of
tweniy-eight or thirty days to New York.
As an instance of what the company is
dong in terms. it is mentioned that dried
fruits are being sent to New York for 60
cents per 100 pounds. This rate saves SIG
per ton compared with the railroad charge.
A Chicago firm has its eyes upon the
restaurant privileges for the Nidwinter
Fair. 1t is firm which has accommo-
dated the Worlds Fair visitors. The rep
utation thus gained is no Endorsement to
community accustomed to square meals
Astounding in delicacies at a reasonable
price. But there are too many good res
taurants in San Francisco to render a cor
ner in catering at famine prices possible.

WORKING ON MANUFACTURERS.

The Southern Pacific Company Is re-
p orted to be trying to convince local man.
ufacturers that the Traffic Association is
perfecting plan which will help Eastern
manufacturers at the expense Of local in
dustries. The ground for their representa-
tons is that the reduction OF freighs re-
sulting from the establishment of the
North American Navigation steamship
line reduces the cost of Eastern goods in
San Francisco. This is true TO an extent
But the local manufacturer does not de-
pend upon the San Francisco market. He
wants to reach the interior. He finds,
however. that to reach points OF any con-
siderable distance from San Francisco he
must pay freight rates equal to or greater
than those the Eastern manufacturer paws
to reach the same points. The manu-
facturer of agricultural implements in
San Francisco. for example. cannot place
his product in Bakersfield at less cost for
freight than the competin. firm in the
East has to pay. Goods brought to this
city by the North American line intended
for interior points are subject to the same
freight charges as goods manufactured in
this city. But the local manufacturer will
have the benefit of the cost of transp0rta-
ton from Eastern ports to this city and
be on even terms with his Eastern COM
petitor as to facilities for reaching the in
terror consumer. Under the present con-
dtion the San Francisco manufacturer
often finds that it costs him more to place
goods al an interior point than it costs his
Eastern competitor to reach the same
points by railroad from the East. Under
the condition about to be established by
the action of the Traffic Association the
local manufacturer will have a sure ad-
vantage over his Eastern competitor at
this port, and from this port to the interior
will have an even show with him.

ton affecting the liberality OF the gov
Grnment In pensioning the men who
saved it's lie, the ex-confedeTate MEM
bers had been almost uniformly and
almost, II not quite, solid against it.
This subject, which lay 20 dear to tho
hearts OF the loyal people OF tine country,
had been taken out oil the hands OF the
committees composed OF loyal men aud
had been Wplimely thrust before this
house by majority OF men who had
fought against the country. There was
no ch!valry in tampenng with the
generosity oil tho government and in
using against the government the very
weapons which its generosity had re-
turned TO the hands Of the men who
had attempted TO destroy it,
4 VOICE FROM THE souTH.
Mr.. Oates said that no had but ono
moment to say word as to tho misrep-
resentation OF the ex.CoRtcdeEates on
the floor OF this house made by tho gem
tleman from Maine. The gen,leman's S
charge was a general one, that eX-Con-
tederates had voted against the pGu-
sioning OF union soldiers. Tho gontle-
man had stated that this was in pur,
suance Of the declaration which had
been made some years ago that the
Democratic party would never cease its
efforts until the last vestage oil war leg
islltion had been wiped from the stat
uto books. That charge had been made
against Mr.. Blackburn, OF Kentucky,
whom he was member OF this body.
But that charge had been denied by Mr..
Blackburn and he (Mr. Oates) deiied
the gentleman to find such remark in
tho Congressional Record.
Mr.. BOutGle said that he did not re-
member who the member was that had
made the remark.
Mr.. Oatos replied that hG did remom-
Dor tie circumstances alluded to, and
ho put tho denial Of Mr.. Blackburn
against the charge OF tho gentleman
from Maine.
Mr.. Boulello stated that he had used
it only rs illustrating the attitude OF
tho Democratic party to-day
Mr. ORtes-And IL was false.
Mr.. Boutelle-I would not say that.
Mr. Oates (Continuing) | said that
the other charges OF the gentlemen
were equally unfortunate and lily
founded. Tho gentlemen had stated
that the Democrats had refused to put
Gen. Grant on tho retired list during
his last illness. They had done moth.
ing OF the kind. When tho bill came
up Gen. Grant was not i'll. And the
gentlemen knew that tho opposition
was not opposition to Gen. Grant Whom
all cx-Confederatcs admired as q soldier,
but opposition to the principle Of rein.

the army in order to take civil posi-
tion. No gentleman could charge him

der who was worthy OF n pension.
