He Thinks superintendent Ashworth's

George T. Gaden thinks Street Superin-
tendent Ashworth's statements in an inter

were in very bad taste.
'sAfter he promised me that he would
correct certain evils to which called atten-
ton in the report which 1 intended to

81 decided to let that document repose in
the secrecy and seclusion OF my desk. But
an evening paper makes Mr.. Ashworth

false alarm, but those who know me,

with holes all through it and the edges
shriveled up, and it was impolitic on Ash
worth's part, to say the least, to reopen
the matter in such manner. l shall have
nothing more to say on the subject just at
present, hoping that the Superintendent of
the Street Department will act with more
propriety in future"

BELVEDERE'S CARNIVAL,
Preparations for the Celebra-
ton Which Takes Place
Tomorrow Night.
TEN THOUSAND LANTERNS.
Launches Will Tow Hundreds Of
Rowboats Amid Showers OF
Fireworks.

Belvedere, the pretty island suburb, will
be in gala dress on the occasion of its
coming Venetian water carnival, when, at
a given signal, the island and adjacent
waters will be illuminated by the burning
of hundreds of pounds of colored lights.
The carnival committee, headed by
Director-General Joseph S. Hawkins, has
been sparing no pains nor expense to in
sure the success of the event, and several
thousand visitors from San Francisco,
Sausalito and Oakland are expected to
take part in the festivities as the guests OF
the citizens of Belvedere, at whose expense
the carnival is given.
The great success of last years carnival
decided the committee to make the cele-
bration a permanent institution, and when
the subscription lists were sent around
lately over $1,000 was very soon raised to
defray the expense. The committee has
established corner" in boats in Sausa-
Ito and Tiburon, and several hundred
small craft will be towed about the cove in
procession, decked with lanterns, while
illumination is going on. Twenty-Five
launches of all sizes have been secured to
do the towing.
To carry out the illumination idea, the
committee decided that about $4,000 Ian

mense interests.
Mr.. Lane business in town is to pur-
chase and ship down to Angels Camp some
big pumps to hasten the work of getting
the water out of the Utica.
There are about 100000 gallons of
water in the mine," he said. "How long
it will take to get it all out I cannot say
just yet, but everything will be done to
hurry it up and get the men at work again.
We have at the mine big Cornish pump
and two smaller one ones with a capacity Tor
pumping out 10000 gallons an hour. l
shall send up from here at least two
pumps, one with capacity of $4,000 and
the other of $4,000 gallons an hour. These
will lift 100000 gallons day. We may
be at work in two or three weeks again,
but it certainly will not be over month
at farthest."
Asked about the cause of the fire, Mr..
Lane said there was no doubt that 1T was
caused by accident. "a piece of fuse from
shot was probably thrown against
some timbers in dry place. You know
how these old mbers will be crushed
almost into splinters by the pressure and
be easily ignited."

after the fire was extinguished. Couldn't
very we'll find the men," he said. "But
then there was not so much danger to any

Asked about the ore in the upper part OF
the mine and keeping the mills going, he
said:
1--WE shall need all the power for the
pumps and shall not run the mill on that
ORE We have plenty of it, of course.
There is enough in the upper part of the
mine to keep US going six or seven years. !"
Speaking of the outlook in the lower lev.

richer as we go down. In fact, / believe

POLITICAL CLUBS.
Plans Adopted for Bringing Democrats
Together and Promoting Har-
mony Among Them.

The scattered forces of the Democratic
party in San Francisco are in process OF
reorganization on three separate and dis
tinct lines. P. F. Dundon is marshaling
some of the faithful under the banners of
the Occidental Club on the hill, Max Pop
per is calling the Iroquois braves to coun-
ell at the Baldwin Hotel and Lanigan is
recruiting corps from Democrats who do
not belong to any particular camp.
Max Pepper is doing some active work
in forming Iroquois clubs, one in each As
sem bly, district, while Dundon is gathering
Democrats from all districts to member
ship in the Occidental. 1t is asserted that
no rivalry exists anywhere and that the
sole aim of all concerned is to promote
harmony. How it is going to be promoted
by these three factions is not clearly set
forth.
Inquiry was made at the Occidental Club
last evening if Mr.. Buckley hao been in
during the day, and Marion Wilson replied
that Buckley was at Coronado.
Many ''Occidentals" were in the house
enjoying the comforts which the establish
ment offers, and the statement was made
by the secretary that the membership OF
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-07-26

say of the effects of the late war on the
Chinese Government and on trade. Ho
Tung speaks English almost fuently, he
is constant reader of English papers and
is altogether an exceptionally well-in-
formed man. As citizen of Hongkong,
which is British coioney, he speaks very
freely of Chinese affairs.
He said at the Palace last night: "The
war is sure to be a good lesson to China,
but it was rather too dear. The result
was anticipated by the intelligent classes,
who knew of the utter want of organiza-
ton and lack of union among the officials
and commanders. A very large proper
ton of the soldiers, too, were unframed re-
cruits.
'But the results will be good. Railroads
will soon be built, the army and navy re-
organized and put on a proper basis and
new ports will be opened to trade.
81 do not think that taxes will have to
be increased to pay the indemnity. You
understand that the collection OF custom
taxes is managed by Sir Robert Hart for
the Chinese Government. The result is
that the Government gets much more sat
isfactory returns than 1t would from Chi
nese officials, who are too apt to put
large part in their own pockets. They will

ton of the inland taxes, and the better re-
turns from this and from the opening of
new ports to trade will likely give enough
income to pay the indemnity without rails
ing the taxes.
HBut is there not a strong prejudice
against foreigners?" was asked.
mo; the feeling against foreigners is
not strong at all. Whatever feeling exists
is among the student or literary class and
no Others. The people are the most peace
full in the world and very easily governed.
The Government needs reforming, and the
principal cause of the delay is that the
people pay little attention to the govern
ment and are willing to allow the officials
to do as they please. They are too
obedient, too easily governed, too long
suffering. They are willing to put up with
any sort OF government. That feeling is
largely the cause of the abuses. What
they want is an emperor, who Will make
himself seen and felt and let the people
know that he is taking an interest in their
affairs"

MUST WORK TO SUCCEED.
San Francisco Can Win the
Republican National
Convention.
DEVELOPMENT Of Eastern Public
Sentiment in Favor Of
This City.

General Robert A. Frederick, chairman
of the Union League committee on the
Republican National Convention, has just
returned from Chicago and New York and
will soon call the members of the commit
tee together. He regards it as essential
that strong delegation from San Fran
cisco should attend the session of the Re-
publican National Committee next Deem
Der. General Frederick believes that this
City can win if united effort be made to
achieve success. He says that San Fran
cisco stands next to Chicago in the race
and the friends of Chicago, should they
fail to secure the convention for their own
town. will cast their strength for this City.
General FREDERICK met many prominent
men of the Union League Club of Chicago
and was gratified to note the expressions
of friendship for San Francisco. The
Chicago Tribune was especially generous
and in an interview published the advan-
tages offered by San Francisco.
Charles A. Aldrich of the Chicago Union
League, who was SolicitorGeneral under
President Harrison, gave the chairman of
the San Francisco committee much en-
couragement.
Another friend of San Francisco is George
R. Peck, general solicitor of the Atchison
system. Mr.. Peck recently delivered an
address before the Washington and Jeffer-
son societies of the University of Virginia,
which has evoked more favorable COM
ment in the South than Henry Grady's
celebrated Boston speech on the "New
South" In the West he has a strong fol-
lowing for the Presidential nomination,
being decided favorite in Illinois and
Kansas. He knows San Francisco's capa-
city for entertaining visitors and appre-
ciates the hospitality of the people on this
side of the continent.
Ex-Governor Thomas A. Osborn of
Kansas. who was Minister to Chile during
President Grants second term, is pro-
nouneed in favor of San Francisco.
Leading Republicans throughout the
country recognize the fact that National
convention of the party has never been
held west of the continental divide, where
all the States are Republican. They under
stand from the standpoint of politicians
that it would be good policy to hold the
convention in San Francisco.
Only one objection is raised, and that is
the distance which delegates will be obliged
to travel,

In 1876 the troops at Fort Wrangel were
Withdrawn, and year later those from
Sltka barracks were transferred to the De-
partment OF the Columbia. On the with
drawal of the army, the NAVY Denartment
placed company of marines at Sitka.
1t is conceded that on the meeting of
Congress strong pressure will be brought
to bear to have a special appropriation
made Tor the erection OF permanent bar

for to Japan. Over $500 was expended on
fireworks which will be sent up from diff
ferent localities. Two bands have been
engaged for the occasion, one of which will

about the cove on an ark.
Excursion boats from this city will leave
the Tiburon ferry at $50, 1880, 800, 8:15
and 80 o'clock. The last boat returning
leaves Tiburon at IL o'clock.
Excursion trains will run on the Dona-
hue line as far as Santa Rosa, and large
number of visitors are expected from that
locality. Carriages and buses have been
