Raise Funds.
Financial Agents of the Exposition
Labor With the MiIIionaires-A
MaCaroni Object Lesson.

Louis Sloss Jr and Frank S. johnson
have been carrying on an active financial
campaign in the interests of the Mid
winter Fair. They have been working
hard. their object being to bag big game.
During tine past week their work has been
principally educational They have inter-
viewed capitalists and rich business men
who have not yet subscribed to the expo
sitOn. information regarding the fair has
been fed 10 these tardy milionaires and
their objections TO contributing overruled
as far as possible. 1t has been uphill work,
but the two financial agents are not dis
couraged. On the contrary they are sure
that their efforts will be crowned with
signal success.
One Of the features of the Midwinter
Fair will be the erection by Italian m anu
faetuTers of plant to make all kinds Of
paste. 1t is intended as IN object lesson
in the preparation of macarohi, spaghetti
and similar delicacies. One object is to
diSpel the idea that these articles OF diet
grow on trees Tine manufacturers think
that the exhibit will promote the demand
for paste foods The display will be eX-

Rev. John Gray Opposes
Sunday Closing.
He Quotes Scripture to Support His
Argument for Open Doors on the
Poor Mans Holiday.

Despite the wet evening, large cOngre-

mon on SUNDAY and a Midwinter Fair"
in The Church of the Advent last night.
DR.. Gray believes that the fair should be
kept open on Sunday 10 give workingmen
a chance to see the exhibits. and he BE-
lieves that the richer classes should not
only permit but encourage mechanics and
others to visit the exhibition on that day.
as well as for rest and RECREATION.
He took for his text the verse. "For the
Son of Man Is Lord Even of the Sabbath"
In his argument he referred 10 the history
of Sunday, which among the ancient
Jews, but Lot now, was properly termed
the Sabbath. He said that this day was
designed in the an cient jewish Church to
commemorate the deliverance of the Chill
dren of Israel from Pharoah's bondage. 1t
was not founded on saDctity and primarily
was not religious observance.
The reason for observing the Sab
BATH" he continued, "lost its primary
significance in time. 1t was originally in-
tended as holiday, time for feasting
and thanksgiving, but later authorities
supplied IL with ecclesiastical rules, so
that the ancient symbols were lost
sight of.
After the resurrection there was a new
seventh but the first day of the week. The
Christian Sunday should be devoted to
thanks for deliverance from spiritual as
well as physical bondage, for the observ-
ance of sacraments aud for the relief of
the necessities of mankind. The Sunday
should be tho type not of prohibition but
OF affirmation.
lis it the style of Christ's Sunday to
shut man up with books, after he has at
tended divine service? That is not rest,
especially for the worklngmen. After
praying and praising God il is not only
proper, but mans duty TO himself and
his family, TO rest and enjoy the beauties
of nature.
There should be compromise of cour-
tesy and respect between the members OF
the Christian Church and the men who
represent the secular Interests the making
OF progress ana civilization. A coatrover-
slal war between opponents of the Chris
tian faith and the managers of the Mid
winter Fair would be foolish and bigoted.
1t should be the aim of both the represent
atives OF the church and Of the exposition
to stand upon platform which all could
approve.

NO BOYCOTT YET.
The Chinese of This City
Are TimorOuS.
CONSULTING THE CONSUL.
Marshal Gard Is in a Quandary and Is
Awaiting Instructions From
Washington.

The Chinese Of this city are still med
itating. still discussing, still waiting, even
plotting, it may be, secretly. but assuredly
not openly.
Their smile is still as "chiIdlike and
bland" though deep in their hearts it is
not likely but that hatred against their
Caucasian OppressOrs is CROWN g apace.
The president of the Six Companies
spent the greater part of yesterday at the
house of the Consul-General in consult
ing and planning. in sending dispatches
and receiving dispatches from the Chinese
legation at Washington.
King Owyang, the erudite Vice Consul,
said yesterday that no steps were being
taken by the Chinese of this city to emu
late the action of their brethren in Los
Angeles. In the southern city the Chinese
yegeta BILE peddlers and laundrIes have
suddenly suspended operations and de-
clared boycott on their Caucasian Gus
toners.
"Such will not be the case in this city,"
says the Vice-COnsul, lat least not at
present and no steps In that direction
have been taken"
Evidently the Chinese still hope for an
extension of the time in which TO register.

as the Collector OF this port declines TO re-

1t is quite likely, however, that even if
Collector Wise had accepted the charges
the Chinese could not have been deported

THE VOLKSFEST.
Patriotic Germans Hold a
Grand Festival.
FOR A BENEVOLENT PURPOSE.
A Gala Day at Ell Campo Celebrated
by Turner's and Singing Vereins.
Characteristic Features.

The old German American day is dead
gone because German citizens could not
warm TO any celebration in America that
was not wholly and sincerely American.
In its place has come the German Volks-
fest which. with great enthusiasm, was
held yesterday at FL Campo.
AS the Volksfest had the support of
forty-three German societies in San Fran
cisco nothing was lacking in its character
as national celebration, and this unity of
action and purpose was rewarded yester-
day by a splendid event in the bay-side
pleasure resort.
The ferry steamer Uklah left her slips
at 80 A NJ. with nearly thousand per
sons ON board for the festive place on her
first trip.

Then the purpose was spoken OF. Mr..
and Mrs. PGster of Milwaukee had prom

Seminary in that city. provided all Ger
mans of the United States contributed
$4,000. With the object of aiding in
raising this fund a German American
central cent committee was organized IN oan
francisco from forty-thren German socie-
ties. 1t was decided to hold the Volksfest
ana TO give one-half the receipts to the
National Teachers Seminary and the re-
naming half to fund for German athletic
grounds at San Francisco.
The speaker was warmly applauded and
given three cheers on leaving the stage.
A nightly Interesting and diversified en-
tertainment followed. The VOrwarts and
Frohsinn singing section rendered glee
song and Mrs. Marie kaulfuss recited an
original poem, "A Welcome TO the Fest.
Next was a song by the Harmonic Singing
Society, after which came the Turn
Nerein's and Elntracht's prize class In
splendid display of wand exercises. The
San francisco Maennerchor sang In good
harmony, as did the singing sections of the

10 the time OF national airs young
ladies Of the Mission Turn VereiD. all in

hearty applause.

Ned Foster of the Bella Union continues

to arrest him. He was arrested twice yes
terday-at the matinee by Sergeant John

by Police Officer NJ. J. Conboy. In the
afternoon he gave 500 cash bail, and at
night his attorney. Carroll Cook, few
minutes after his arrest presented an order
for his relrase on his own recogniZance
signed by Judge Campbell. He has now
put up 5000 in bonds and 500 cash bail.
The action of Judge Campbell will in
future arrests relieve him of the trouble

The Movement Is Spreading in the
New World.

Never has the subject of Sabbath OBJ
servance attracted such universal at
tontion as at present. Many of the ma
tiUnS have passed laws regulating Sun
day work. Some Of these show very ad-
vanced sentiments in regard to the
keeping OF the Lords day. In Austria,
women and minors are forbidden
to work in factories on Sun
day, and government permit is
necessary in order to carry on any man
ufacturing business on that day. Sunday
evening and Monday morning papers
are not allowed. as the work on them
must be done on Sunday. Switzerland
gives all WOrkmen employed in mills,
factories or shops the entire day, and ali
employees on transportation lines
or in the public service at least
seventeen Sundays in the course
OF the year. In extreme cases, or
in the interest of the state, men
may work in factories on Sunday by
government permission, but must not
work two Sundays in succession. A
new and important railway has made
absolute freedom from Sunday traffic
for twenty-five years clause in its
charter. In France employees are re-
Guired to rest one day in seven, but
that is not necessarily the Sabbath.
Shopping and public business are de-
creasing in consequence of the efforts
OF the Sunday-Rest league. In Ger
many factories, mills and workshops of
all kinds are closed on Sunday by i'm
perial command. Bazaars and shops
may not remain open more than
five hours. Sunday race meetings
are frowned upon by the emperor, and
as the favor OF the powers that be is
necessary TO success, they are very un-
satisfactory affairs. In Holland there is
a general movement for Sunday rest.
Some of the most influential papers
have ceased to issue their Sunday num-
bers, freight traffic is suspended, and
laws are passed protecting women and
minors from demands for Sunday labor.
Hungary has laws making the hours of
rest from labor from p, III. on Satur-
day to midnight on Sunday. The rest
movement is gaining ground rapidly in
other particulars. Sweden, Norway and
Denmark all have restrictive Sunday
laws, the latter forbiddlng work in fac
stories between 9 a. IN. and midnight.
While the most urgent petitions have
been sent to the head of the church,
there has been no advance i'll the Sun
day movement in Russia. The utmost
disregard for the Sabbath is manifested
in many respects, the people seeming to

WANT THE BOOKS.
Illinois Democrats Desire to See
the Records OF the Insurance
Department.
Republican Officials Retain the
Books Giving the Disburse-
ments and Receipts.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Jan. 19.-The first
official act of the Democratic attorney
general of Illinois has been TO draw up
a legal document making formal de-
mand upon the Republican ex-Auditor
of Public Accounts Pavey for the cash
books and records OF disbursements
of the insurance department. For
many years one of the subjects
of political discussion in Illinois
campaigns has Geen the DISPOSE
tion of fees received in the insurance
department.. The act OF the general as
Senbly creating the insurance depart
ment of the auditors Office, and provld-
ing for its maintenance, contains a
clause that the net amount of
all fees, over and above the
cost OF performing clerical la
Dor connected herewith. shall not
exceed $1,000, and any amount above
that sum shall be paid to the state
treasurer. The common Interpretation
of this has been that the state auditor is
entitled to $1,000 per annum in addition
to his $4,000 salary and i'll addition to
that which he has the right to deduct as
expenses Of maintaining the insurance
department.
The Democrats, however, never con-
ceded this Interpretation. During tile
months preceding the late election it
was common assertion OF Democratic
orators throughout the state that an eX-
animation of the auditors office would
develop grave irregularities, and
it is, perhaps, the remembrance of
these charges which tonight gives so
much credence to the astounding asSer-
tions that between the amounts col
lected in the insurance department and
the amounts paid into the state treasury
there will be found unaccOunted for the
startling discrepancy of $4,000 to
5000 per annum, reaching back, per
haps, to 1876. 1t is asserted that the
new auditor, Gore, made the discovery
that the books showing the eXpendit-
ures of the insurance department
of the auditors Office have been
taken away, and search developed the
fact that similar records extending as
far back as 1876 are gone. EX-Audltor
Pavey said he had turned over all the
public records to his successor. The
cash and bank books retained he re-
garded as private property. When told
about the assertion that discrepancy
of $16, 900 to $4,000 per annum would
be found to exist in the office accounts,
Pavey said there was no occasion for
any such statement.
