REPUBLICANS RALLY.
New Officers of the Lincoln Club In
stalled With Speeches and
High Jinks.

There was no limit to the patriotism,
enthusiasm and good feeling expressed at
the high iinks and installation of the
officers of the Lincoln Republican Club at
its headquarters on Powell and Union
streets, last night. Over a thousand invi-
tations have been issued. In spite of the
storm the club rooms we're crowded,
among those present being most of the
more important county officials.
The first work of the evening was the in
stalling OF the officers who were elected
fortnight ago. Those taking the obliga-
tions as officials were:
Henry S. Martin, president; Charles
Heinz, first vice president; Adolph Wolff,
second vice-president; E. G. Kendall, re-
cording secretary; Thomas II. Mullen,
financial secretary; L. R. Rea, treasurer;
George W. Faber, sergeant-at-arms.
The executive committee was chosen as
follows: Alexander Campbell Jr., Melo
Ellich, Louis Stroll, George Hauser and
John Walsh
The investigating committee consists of
H. j. Ostheimer NJ. M. Bushway, A. J.
Denegri, w. B. Corcoran and Joseph Bar
BETA.
The newly installed officers and a num-
Der OF visitors made eloquent speeches,
toretelling sweeping victories at the next
election. Songs, recitations, more speeches
and bountiful and varied refreshments,
both solid and liquid, made the evening
pass most pleasantly.

DAMAGE BY STORM,
Stores and Houses Flooded and
Streetcars Stopped-Breaks
in the Sewers


The heavy rain of yesterday resulted IN
great deal of damage throughout the
City.
The shopkeepers on the gore block Of
Market and McAllister streets suffered
from the overflow of water from the Nc
Alllster and Jones streets sewers. which
enter the main Market-street sewer at that
point. Every year these sewers cause n
vast amount of trouble, and have resulted
IN the annual flooding of the basement of
}. }. y Brien's dry-goods store in the Muir
ply building.
During the afternoon yesterday the rain
fall in Hayes Valley and the Western Ad-
dltlon was so great as to fill the sewers
leading therefrom to their full running
capacity. When the storm burst in all its
torce, between 6 and o'clock, the surplus
OF water could not be drained off through
the ceSspoolS and it began to back up. In
less than ten minutes Market street, from
near Taylor to Seventh, was covered by a
large sheet of water, varying from one to
eighteen inches in depth, and this body of
water backed up McAllister street almost
to Leavenworth. All of the sidewalks on
the west side of the street were under
water.
On the Market and McAll1ster streets
gore this did considerable damage, for the
water crossed the sidewalks and entered
the stores from the two entrances on
Market and McAllister streets.
The drygoods-store at 1902 Market street
was an inch too high for the water to get
in.
The Junction Cafe, at 1904, had an inch

SENATOR HUMANS ESTATE,
Upward of 100000 Left to a
Brother Residing in This
City.
Timothy Nunan of Powell Street Made
Rich by the Death of
Relative.

Timothy Nunan, a carpenter, whose
home is at 916 Powell street, will not have
to work at his trade any more.
He has Just received word that he is heir
to the $4,000 estate of his brother. Ed
formerly resident of San Francisco. He
was well-known Supervisor here and he
served one term in the State Senate.
The carpenter is the ex-Senator's brother
and it is supposed that he is the only heir.
Senator Nunan, a local capitalist at the
time, was one of the bondsmen for Mat
thew Nunan when the latter was Sheriff.
the two being distant relatives. An at
tache OF the Sheriff office defaulted with
about $685. 900 of the county funds and
the Sheriff and his bondsmen were COM
PEELED TO make good the loss.
Soon after that the ex-senator gave up
all his business here and removed to Lon
don, never returning to this country.
week or two ago J. B. Eliot of this
City received letter from firm of Lon
don solicitors stating that the ex-senator
had died and requesting that notice be
sent to the dead mans relatives if anv
could be found. A search was accordlnely
instituted by Mr.. Eliot and it was found
that the Powell-street carpenter brother
was the only relative near enough to have
any claim to the estate.
In London ex-senator Nunan resided at
lOl Leadenhall street, e. G. 1t is believed
that he has no relatives there and the San
francisco brother llget the greater por-
ton OF the estate, if not all of it.
When the ex-senator went away from
San Francisco he had property that was
valued at upward OF S100 900, and it is sup
posed that in the ten years or more since
his departure the estate has increased.
The local heir will have his claims looked
out for by San Francisco and London law
years, and it is probable that he will 90 to

Rev. Charles w. Wendte in communi-
cation to the Examiner contributes the
following to the controversy:
Father Yorke severely arraigns me for not
citing Roman Catholic authorities, OF whom
he mentions number, in substantiating my
statements. My reply is, first, that 1 did. In
my recent articles l quoted from the
utterRnces of eight or more Popes, be-
sides church councils, doctors, prelates

quote them from Catholic books. reply: A

the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to constipated condi-
ton of the system. which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt

who value good health. Its beneficial

muzzled in certain countries, would use the
liberty which every street-ranter in the United
States possesses. There is no hint of any means
being used but moral means-the same means
which Dr.. Wendte would employ in such n
juncture. Why, then, did he stop in the mid
die OF a sentence? Why did he leave to the
imagination what the Pope expressly stated? +?
is this a fair and manly way to deal with ali
opponent? Is DR.. Wendte reduced to the
necessity OF mutilating papal encyclicals to
make point against the Pope? Surely truth
does not need such help nor such defenders"
CATHOLIC PERSUASION
In reply let me assure DIR. Yorke that never
imagined that the existing Catholic church
would use force of arms 10 establish her claims:
certainly not in the United States where she
counts a scant eighth of the population Ever
since United Italy drove her pie bald papal bat
talions out OF the Eternal City she has ex-
changed her policy of force for that of snbtIa
persuasion, polite dissimulation, intrigue

This rise in wheat comes just at the
right time, and will make votes for Nc
Kinley. because many farmers have
been deluded into thinking that the gold
standard is responsible for low prices
Of their product. There is an extraor-
binary foreign demand for wheat. and
consequently the price is advancing.
All this is needed to complete the hap
piness of farmers is the election Of Nc
Rinfey. for this will surely restore pros
