I the Bryan Free Silver Flambeau Club, th
uniformed Democratic clubs of Alamed.
County and other organizations began L
arrive al o. clock, and half an hour late
all the seats of the vast edifice were filled
only small space of standing room re
naming unoccupied in the western end O.
the hail.
BY request of the committee of arrange.
ments the American flag was adopted as
the emblem for the occasion, and, as small
copies of the National ensign were fur
nished free to all who entered the hall,
there was no lack of color in the assem-
bIage.
In order to draw as big crowd as pos
sible long list of speakers had been an
nounced, the following gentlemen
being included: Governor James H. Budd,
Senator Stephen M. White, Congressman
James G. Mcguire, J. ]. Dwyer, Frank H.
Gould, w. w. Foote. Thomas V. Gator,
Thomas J. Clunie, Henry C. Gesford, NJ.
f. Taylor, Charles D. Lane. w. III. Afford,
Jefferson G. Chandler, M. f. Tarpey, E.
M. Wardall, Governor 4. B. Smith and
George w. Baker.
A majority of these gentlemen took
seats on the platform, which had been
raised near the south side of the hall for
the accommodation of the orators. A
number of other prominent Democrats
and silver ad vocates were also present.
AT $50 o'clock W. H. Alvord, chairman n
OF the Democratic campaign committee,
attempted to call the meeting to order,
but was interrupted by the entry OF half
a dozen marching clubs and bands that
had not been included in the official pro-
gramme.
There was so much enthusiastic cheer
ing that it was 8 o'clock before Mr.. Al
word again thought 1t worth while to try
to obtain order.
Mr.. Afford said that he had never be-
fore seen Democratic meeting that was
big enough to suit him, but at last his
ambition in this regard was gratified.
He said:
1--WE have been called anarchists be-
cause we criticized the Supreme Court.
To that we reply that courts are sub ject
10 criticism the same as any other thing
or person in this world, and we draw
their attention TO the fact that many OF
the atrocious crimes OF the centuries have
been committed by the sanction of courts.
The crucitixion of Christ was authorized
by court. The beheading of st. John
was ordered by a court; witches were
burned in England and America by order
OF courts; Robert Emmett. the matchless
Irish patriot, was executed by order of a
court. Those courts and all other courts
that sanction an invasion of the rights OF
the people are justly subject to the criti-
cism of honest men.
When Governor Budd was announced
he was greeted with genuine enthusiasm;
the band played HAL to the Chief, and
the little flags were vigorously waved to
and fro.
The Governor was in good voice, but
there was so much commotion in the

those in the immediate vicinity of the
rostrum.

Budd's remarks. He said:

the greatest loss. Fire Marshal Towe
placed the damage at $4,000, while the
contents-coffee, spices and chocolate-are
said to be damaged to the extent of $50, 900.
The loss on the Sansome-street size will
probably reach $4,000, due principally to
water.
Just how the fire originated no one
seems to know positively. 1t was first
discovered in the rear of the Jackson-street
building, and is believed to have been
caused bv burning coffee in the rear
roasting-room. The first alarm was turned
in at $50 A. NJ. from box 18. Two other
alarms followed shortly after, and in few
minutes the entire Fire Department was
on the scene. They worked hard and fast
until 8:45 A. NJ. when the flames were
finally extinguished.

A Fashionable Audience Listens to
Strains of Sweet Music.
The Baldwin Theater was comfortably
filled yesterday afternoon with matinee
audience, composed chiefly of ladies, who
had been attracted by the second concert
OF the Hlnrlchs- Beel series.
The orchestra had been somewhat
strengthened since the opening concert of
the series affortnight since, The strings
were hrmer and the brass and reeds did
better work. This was especially noticea-
bic in the symphony, which was played in
smooth and finished manner through
out. The 'Seigfried music was also per-
formed with keen appreciation of its
beauties, and SO was the music from Saint
Saens' Henry VIII
Sigmund Beel played Max Bruch's G
minor concerto for violin and orchestra
brilliantly and was enthusiastically ap-
plauded. Signor Abramoff also sang with
splendid effect. BY the way, it is now
stated that before definitely settling in
this City Signor Abralncff will probably
take twelve weeks engagement TO sing
with the METROPOLITAN Opera Company.

WILL Get ELECTION NEWS
The Press Club to Be Connected
: by a Special Wire on
November 3.
Communication Afforded With Great
Leaders - Western Unions
New Departure.

On Tuesday next, owing to the great in
terest in the pending National election the
Press Club will be connected by special
wire and will have an instrument and
skillful operator in the rooms.
The news will be hulletined as fast as it
is received. l. is expected there will be a
big crowd there all night, as the mem ber-
ship is large, and nearly everybody has q
special and in many cases personal in
terest in the outcome.
Manager w. ]. Martin of the Western
Union Company learning that the club
desired to get the dispatches generously
offered to connect the rooms and put in an
operator without any cost whatever. 1t is
expected that it will be gala night.
Probably the rooms will be filled to their
utmost capacity.
connections can be had with Chicago
Canton, New York, Lincoln and other
cities, and with great men of the parties.
THE Western Union Company will do
differently this year from what it ever did
BEFORE said Manager Martin last night.
ut will not depend on any of the news as
sociations for any of its reports, except in
San Francisco. 1t will have a service Of
its own, collecting the news Tor the as
sociations themselves. Elaborate prepara-
tions have been made all over the United
States.
by II o'clock on Tuesday night il will
undoubtedly be known who is elected.
Minor details about the tickets in different
States will follow.
1--WE will also, as we go along, give COM
parative votes. For instance, with the
Presidential vote will be given the vote for
Harrison and Cleveland in 1892 in different
districts and States
"Thus it may be seen at a glance whether
the Presidential candidate is gaining or
losing. The figures of the last National
contest are already in every one of our
offices, to be used on the instant"

The school tax levy will hereafter
be three mills.
The announcement that there would
be necessary increase in tho tax levy
to meet the expenses OF tho State
government has created considerable
discussion and some dissatisfaction.
The Comptroller General states that
unless there is an income tax and a
.lconso tax provided the tax levy will
expenses OF government. The dispen-
eary profits, which are supposed to
amount 100000, have all been given
to the school fund, and phosphate
royalty is tied up in sinking fund to
pay the State debt. These funds can
not, therefore, be considered in provid-
ing for the necessary expenses Of the
government. 1t is very likoly that
both tue income tax and license bill
will be introduced in the Legs ature.
The Comptroller General stated that
he did not know what scheme would
be devised in reference to incomes,
but suggested that it would probably
be tax on all who received an income
OF 81, 900 or more. That would boar
equally on all the people of the State,
but the license scheme will only affect
the town people. 1t is stated tnat
farmers, for instance, will not be sub
Ject TO license tax, although they
are 10 business like any one else.
The Comptroller General estimates
that tax on incomes of q thousand
dollars would bring in about $4,000.
This will not he enough to meet the
deficit. The license tax on business as
charged In Charleston would bring in
about $5OO,000. Comptroller General
Norton does not intend TO recommend
any plan TO the Legislature, but will
simply call TO the attention of the
mcmhers what they are permitted to
do under the constitution. The whole
subject is one in which the officials
are deeply interested, and they are
scratching their heads daily to get up
some scheme to raise the money and
still not increase tho rate OF taxation.

Tho railroads seem bent on their
determination to make an issue with
the State on the fertilizer rate matter.
1t was learned yesterday that not a
single road had put into effect the
rates as recently promulgated by the
ooard, but on the contrary all of them
were absolutely refusing to obey the
Jaw, Notwithstanding demands had
been made ON them to do 30. This is
tho time OF the year when fertilizers
are moved heavlly'and it is of'great in-
portance to shipper as well as buyer
that the reduced railroad rate should
be Obtained.
The refusal of the roads to put the
new schedule into effect means, Of
course, war between them and the
Commission and in the end there can
be but one result.
The Commission has only one way to
enforce their regulations aud that is
through the courts. A mandamus can
be- taken out against the roads and in
case it is shown that they have will
fully violated the rules of the Com
mission, they are liable to u fine OF
Dl ,OOU at Ilo lSaSJ LOT SaCn O1CnSS. Inc
| fine may be increased to SIS 900.
The Attorney General will have to
take the first steps in the matter and
the Commission has already put the
facts in his possession and some action
will be taken at an early date. The
Railroad Commission has received 6
number of complaints as to the roads
refusing to put in operation tho now
schedule.
Some days ago it was announce,
that the Manchester and August;
Road had applied to Judge SimOntol
for an order Of Injunction against the
Commission. The matter was to com,
up on the 2lst inst, it was said. AS
} sistant Attorney General Townsend
who has been to Charleston, inquired q

no such papers had been filed in hi
office. The Commission has been serv

ought to be with the Clerk of tn,

will bo taken which will end in havins
