and now they had been able to brace

considerations our salutations. and to take
the same courage and hope to the unhappy

After Mrs Cafes speech there was loud
applause, followed by cries of "Gori."
The anarchist responded by making
brief speech. "Friends, there are mo-
ments when in the silence of our ideas the
heart speaks more than words. A dis
course in this meeting of friends would be
out OF place, and l will try TO sum up my
feelings for you, my friends and SYM
pathizers, in a few poor words.

toilers your fraternal salutations. | feel
the irresistible sentiment of the ultimate
triumph of our ideas. Here is Signor Ce-
vasco, who represents the capitalist class,
inclining before our views, and others will
do so.'
Slgnor Cevasco murmured denial OF
the soft impeachment that he represented
the capitalistic class, but Gori, unmoved
by this protest, continued by expressing
hope that the chain of anarchist laborers
would soon spread round the world and
that his hearers should be proud of being
in the vanguard of the movement. After
his brief speech the anarchists health was
drunk with acclamations and "Evvivas."
Gori will leave to-day for Los Angeles,
but his admirers declare that the seed of
anarchy which he has planted in this City
will grow and flourish.

Reopening day at Ingleside track was
attended by big crowd. The public seem
to repose confidence in the racing at the
new track that is lacking at the old one,
especially since the Little Pete exposure,
and the betting-ring is always crowded.
The occasion was also Ladies' day. and
the fair sex filled the grand stand. The
excellent band added to the gayety of the
scene, discoursing popular airs during the
intervals between races, and as four of the
six first choices reached the wire in front
the talent and the crowd in general voted

IS NOT THE STRANGLER,
What the Police Have Been
Able to Learn About
Julius Festner.
He Will Be Examined by the Insan.
ity Commissioners as to His
Mental Condition.

julius Festner of Omaha, Neb, who in
suited Miss FennelI of Hyde and Pine
streets Wednesday night, is apparently
not the man who strangled Mamie Nc
Dermott and Bertha Paradis, but it has
not yet been shown that he was not the
man who attempted to strangle Irene
Phillips and Laura Petit.
Yesterday morning Detective Bohen,
who has had charge of the strangling
cases, saw Festner in his padded cell in
the Receiving Hospital and he was struck
by his similarity to the man described by
several women who attempted to strangle
them.
Half dozen of these women had look
at Festner in the hospital and they all said
they mad never seen him before Detective
Bohen went for Irene Phillips and Laura
Petit, but found they had gone to the
races. 1t was his intention to get them to
call at the hospital last night, but he de-
cided it would be better to wait till this
morning.
A young lady who was followed by a
man on Pacific Heights about ten DAYS ago
and insulted also had look at Festner
Yesterday, but failed to recognize him.
Detective Bohen made Inquiries about
Festner yesterday and ascertained that he
left Omaha on March II for this City. He
would arrive here about four days later, so
that disposed of the suspicion that he was
the man who strangled Mamie McDer-
mott and Bertha Paradis. AS stated in
Yesterdays CALL he registered at the Col
den West Hotel on March %, and his
movements from the time of his arrival
till that date are not yet known.
The police have ascertained that Fest
ner was intoxicated most of the time he
mas been here. He was familiar figure
In several weH-known sporting saloons in
the .'tenderloin district" where he fur
nished amusement to the patrons by play
ing the either.
Frederick Louderback, a either player,
who has rooms in the Supreme Court
building, knew Festner fifteen years ago
in Omaha. He called upon Louderback
about a fortnight ago, who observed that
he acted strangely and the thought came
to him that he had lost his reason After
his first visit Festner visited Louderback
frequently and borrowed small sums of
money from him.
Policeman Mclaughlin, who arrested
Festner Wednesday night, swore to a
complaint yesterday morning charging
him with insanity. Miss Fennell and
some of her friends accompanied Nc
Laughlin. Festner was taken before
Judge Wallace for examination, but he
was remanded till to-day to enable the
police to get witnesses. Festner was vio-
lent in his cell all yesterday and had to be
strapped down.

DICK WILLIAMS INDICTED
Collector Wise Unable to Save
the Custom.House In.
Spector.
The Federal Grand Jury Will Return
True Bill-HiS Dismissal
Expected.

The United States Grand Jury will in
dict Richard Williams to-day. This
action was decided upon when the body
met last Tuesday.
Williams is the Custom-h house inspector
whom Collector Wise has been making
such hard fight to save. But even the
Williams, and his scalp will now dangle
at the belt of Special Agent Moore Of the
Treasury Department. An indict-
ment by the Grand Jury will
be equal to dismissal, and it is probable
that Secretary Carlisle will telegraph the
Collector to have his favored inspector
placed on the retired list.
Collector Wise has stood by Williams
through all his troubles, but is now forced
to retire from the field i'll favor of his old
enemy of the treasury service, Major
Moore.
The belief is general in Federal circles
that the trial OF Williams will develop
some racy matters relative to the contro-
versy which has been going on for some
time between Collector Wise and Major
Moore. And the indictment of Williams
will only increase this long-standing antag
onism. Wise is bitter against Moore, and
Moore is not burdened with love for
Wise. And so with such a strong and
uncompromising hatred between TWO
high officials of the United States Govern
ment the subordinates in the different de-
partments of the service are watching the
outcome with great expectancy.
The Williams case is said TO be only a
side issue of the fight betH cen Moore and
Wise. His passing from the scenes of his
former activity and usefulness is of little
moment. He will join the great process
sion of soreheads that daily sun them
selves in front of the big building on
Washington street and discuss the glories
OF the past and the sorrows of the present
Williams was only Customs Inspector.
He conversed with the Chinese in their
native tongue, and being otherwise
smooth of speech and thrifty of step, he
was especially priced by the Collector of
the Port. But in an absent-minded hour
it is said of him, he allowed the shifty
Mongoliau to drop few yellow coins into
his hand, and, presto, change. Some
native sons and daughters of the Chinese
empire were unlawfully landed at this
port. That is one of the reasons why
dick" Williams will be indicted by the
Federal Grand Jury to-day.

was the stellar attraction OF the day. Five
went to the post TO try for the rich 5000
prize. From racing standpoint the event
was disappointment for Pepper won in
hollow style. Decided under selling con-
ditions, Pat Dunne's brown horse was in
die, and ruled hot to 20 favorite in the
betting. Flirtilla. second choice in the
betting, made the pace for six furlOngs,
when Sloan, on Fred Gardner, let out q
wrap, and the chestnut horse made the
running up to the last six furlongs. Coch-
ran then gave the favorite his head, and
taking the lead, the son of Hindoo passed
Flirtilla finishing in place, six lengths in
front of Oakland. The distance was COW
cred in 4:37.
The first event on the programme was a
four-furlong dash for two-year-olds. Early
Notice, the Burns & Waterhouse entry,
was to favorite, but could finish no
better than fourth. Amelia s, 10 to /
outsider, led to the saddling paddock, and
then she "blew up" Scarborough, with
Beauchamp up, then won cleverly from
ST. Dunstan. The winner was backed
down from skies to 3 to 1. The favorite
was third.
The six-furlong run under selling condi-
tions that was next called, resulted in q
very pretty contest between the 9 to
second choice Kowalsky and the outsider
Toano. The latter and the to favorite
William Pinkerton raced out in front at a
great clip up to the stretch, when the lat
ter had enough. Kowalsky then came on
and in hard drive won by head. The
Spreckels entry Gallant was third.
The most exciting finish of the day was
furnished at the conclusion of the mile
and a sixteenth selling event. 1t ended in
a victory for the even money choice, Babe
Murphy, but only after hard struggle
with the second choice, Adolph Spreckels.
The Corrigan entry took the lead on the
back>tretch, swinging around the turn tor
home a length before the favorite. In a
hard drive to the wire Babe managed to
reach the finishing point first by neck.
Uncle Giles was fair third.
The presence of Magnet caused all but

SERVICES OF HOLY WEEK
His Grace the Archbishop
Offciates at the Cathe-
dral.
Impressive Ceremonies, Eloquent Ser
mons and Large Attendance
of Worshipers.

Large congregations are attending the
Holy Week services in the Catholic
churches. AT the Cathedral yesterday
brated the pontifical mass and consecrated
the holy oils. The ceremonies were most
impressive. the procession of the holy
eucharist being one of the most striking
features of the imposing service.
The Archbishop was attended BY the
Very Rev. j. J. Prendergast, Vicar
General, as assistant priest; Revs P. J.
Cummings and Peter S. Casey as deacons
OF honor, and Revs Charles Ramm and
Joseph Conway as deacon and sub-deacon
at the altar. The masters of ceremonies,
Revs. Joseph f. Byrne and T. Mulligan,
evidently understood their business, for
the long and intricate ceremonial was gone
through without single hitch.
About twenty priests took part in the
service, besides the required number of dea-
cons and sub-deacons, all robed in vest
ments of cloth of gold according to the
rank of each. The chanters during the
conservation of the holy oils were Revs. J..
f. Byrne and Jerome Hannigan. The
repository for the eucharist is magnifi-
Gently adorned with flowers, lights and
hangings, Transforming St. Joseph's chapel
into bower of beauty.
In the evening the rosary was recited
and sermon on the institution and per-
petuation of the eucharistic sacrament
and sacrifice delivered by Father Conway.
To-day his Grace the Archbishop will
ofhciate at the morning service, being
attended by Father Ramm as deacon and
Father Conway as sub-deacon. The
passion" will be sung in most i'm pres
sive manner, Father Byrne taking the part
OF the Saviour, Father Conway that of the
evangelist and Father Hannigan that of
the rabble; In the evening the Arch
bishop will lead in the devotion of the
Way of the Cross the 'Stabat Mater"
being sung by the male choir OF the
Cathedral.
a sermon will also be preached by the
Rev. Father Byrne on the sufferings and
death OF Christ considered in their practi-
cal bearings upon the spiritual life of to-
day. Father Byrne, who is "native
son, is much admired for the depth and
originality of his sermons, which in the
opinion of competent judges cannot be ex-
celled as forcibie and elegant presentations
of Catholic teachings.

WILL NOT BITUMINIZE.
The Folsom Street Boulevard Must
Wait Until the Next Fiscal

The Street Committee of the Board of
Supervisors decided yesterday that the
proposed bituminizing of Folsom street
from Third to Sixth must be abandoned
Tor the present, In accordance with the re-
port Of the Superintendent of Streets that
all the funds in the Street Department ap-
preparation for the pre- sent fiscal year will
be exhausted by improvements already or
dered.
This will be severe blow to the advo-
Gates of the Folsom boulevard, it having
been hoped by the property that
the proposed new pavement on the blocks
mentioned would be an entering wedge for
the complete bituminizing of the thorough
fare. For the same reason the committee
refused to recommend the reconstruction
of Steuart, between Folsom and Harrison,
or the grading OF Twenty first from
Sanchez 10 Noe.
All of these improvements will be pro-
vided for in the appropriation for the next
fiscal year.

Crimes of violence there will ever
be while human nature lasts, and
crimes against property are inevita-
BILE in densely populated cities, but
professional crime is disgrace to
the community and to the age. And
the present system of dealing with
professional criminals is about as
sensible and as satisfactory as If, in
the case supposed, the old foxes
when trapped should be kept for q
measured interval, and then let
loose again among the covers. More
over, the general diminution Of
crime only seems to make the fact
more significant that crimes of the
kind attributable to professional
criminals seem to increase rather
than to diminish.
These men are tleniently dealt
with on account of tho ignorant use
made of the judicial statistics, and
they are taking advantage of it. To
