THE REPORTED BOMB THROWING.

The Police Say It Was Only Joke, but
1t Is Believed That They Are Conceal
Ing the Facts, Though Arresting Anarch-
ists-Britlsh Opinions.
PARIS, Oct. 9-The ozar and his party
have left Paris, going to CLalons, where
the military review takes place this after
noon. The series Of brilliant receptions
ht the capital closed with a visit TO the
Palace Of Versailles. The Russian imperial
standard was hoisted over the centor of
the palace and fioated there throughout
the stay Of their maiosties.
After having made o tour of the gardens
the czar and czarina entered the court of
honor, where a magnificent tent of red
velvet trimmed with gold fringe, had
been erected. The imperial party was met
by the minister Of fine arts, the director
Of the national museums and the curator
Of the palace and were conducted up the
queen S staircase at the top Of which they
were met by Nine and Mile. Faure, whom
shoir majosties graciously greeted. The
visitors then proceeded to inspect Marie
Antoinette's and other small rooms.
Thence they we're escorted to the Sale des
Glaoes, ana when they emerged upon the
balcony they were most enthusiastically
cheered by the crowd numbering about
10, 900 people, assembled before the pal
nco. On the balcony their majesties had
a superb view Of the park, lakes and foun.
tains.
All Sat nt the Same Table.
A banquet was spread in the Galerie des
Batailles. At the desire of the car all
OF the hundred guests on this occasion sat
at the same table.
At the conclusion of the banquet the
imperial train left for Chalons, soon after
followed by President Faure's train.
In spite OF denial by police officials, the
newspapers insist that anarchist demon
strations have occurred in this city.
In addition to the report that bomb
was exploded in the Place dc la Conoorde,
The journal says there was an explosion,
injuring one person, in Rue st. Florentin,
and that one arrest was made.
The Gaulois asserts that a number Of
anarchists have been arrested.
The prefecture OF police has issued a de-
nial of the report that bomb was exploded

WATCH THE COUNT.
The Charter Association Explains to
Rev. Father Yorke the Object of
Certain Circulars.
The following open letter to Rev. Peter
G. Yorke explains itself:

The following open letter to Rev. Peter
@. Yorke explains itself:
Rev. Peter C. Yorke, City-DEAR SIR: In the
report of your address last evening, as pub
hshed to-day, reference is made to a letter,
purported to have been sent by the Merchants
Association, for persons to watch the count at
the approaching election. Permit us to cor
rect the impression conveyed by your words
that letters of any description have been sent
by the Merchants Association to any ergani-
cation on this subject.
As matter of fact, the Citizens Charter
Association issued 1887 copies of a circular
letter and postal card, of which copies are
herewith inclosed. They were sent to all pub
in the City Directory. This list comprises 567
organizations of every description, and is
open to the inspection of yourself or any per-
son interested. Athletic, benevolent, COM
mercial, fraternal, labor, literary, social,
scientific, State and trade organizations are
included. There is absolutely neither distinc-
ton nor discrimination as to nationality or
religious belief
In organizing this force of watchers at the
election precincts, not the slightest reflection
is made upon the many worthy citizens, who
have been appointed election officers. The
force of watchers organized by the Charter As
sociation joined by the Democratic State Gen.
trail Committee and the Non-Partlsan party.
win cooperate with all honest election officials
to secure q correct and prompt count of the
entire electoral ticket The official record of
past elections in this City proves conclusively
that grave frauds have been perpetrated at
the ballot box. Surely, there can be no more
the ballot and stamp out this threatening dam
ger to the sovereign right OF the people. Re-
spectfully yours,
CITIZENS CHARTER ASSOCIATION.

IS TO Be AN EVENT,
Unique Entertainment by the
San Francisco Press
Club.
Stars From the Theaters and Others
to Take Part-a Crowded House
Expected.

Tomorrow afternoon the entertainment
of the San Francisco Press Club will take
place at Morosco's Grand Opera-house.
No pains have been spared to make it all
that could be desired by the most critical
of attendants. The leading members of
the best theatrical companies. as we'll as
members OF the club, will all take part.
In all probability the house will be
thro nged TO its fullest capacity, though
the house is very large. The seats have
been selling rapidly.
Among the delightful features will be
the fourth act of 'Tennessee's Pardner,"
the Zanzibar trio from Ferris Hartman s
"Babes in the Woods" Miss Victoria Bate
man and the Howard Kyle Company In
sSweethearts." Bernard Mollenhauer Will
play the violin. Signor Abramoff, the
Italian operate basso, and the Press Club
Quartet will sing. Frank Lincoln, the
gifted humorist, will be there, so will Miss
Julia Gassman, the comedienne.

Mr.. Ach indicated the situation by re-
questing Judge Daingerfeld to dismiss
the action against Messrs. l.. & G. Bren-
ner. stating in open court that it was
brought under misapprehension, which
he sincerely regretted. The court dis

Attorneys in Contempt.

The old case of Thomas K. Stately against
the California National Bank came into prom
lnence again yesterday when Judge Morrow
cited John chatwood, E. G. Knapp and Thomp-
son & Thompson for contempt. 1t will be re-
called that Judge Morrow granted an injunc-
tion in favor of Stately, restraining the parties
named above from proceeding in the State
courts. Recently it appears Thompson &
Thompson made application to Department
of the Superior Court to pay Chatwood certain
fees alleged to be due, hence the contempt
proceedings of yesterday. The gentlemen
named have made affidavit that they were not
aware of an injunction having been issued,
ana it is thought that on this showing the con-
tempt proceedings which are down for hear
ing November 10, will be dismissed

OBSTRUCTED A CAR.
#. l., Wilson Arrested for Slow Driving
Contrary to Law,

f. L. Wilson Arrested for Slow Driving
Contrary to Law,
F. L. Wilson's stubbornness or peculiar
idea of a joke, it is not known which, re-
suited in his getting arrested last evening
on charge of obstructing streetcar.
The young man. who is salesman by oc-
cupation, was out delivering some goods,
using horse and wagon for the purpose.
He turned into Kearny street at Wash
ington, and, finding hi mself in front of a
southbound electric car, evidently con-
cluded to enjoy himself. The motorman
rang for him to turn from The track, but
he failed to do so. The horse logged along,
dragging the wagon directly on the car
tracks. and the motorman rang his bell
in vain.
This state of affairs continued until Post
street was reached. at this point the
conductor got off and notified Policeman
F. w. Engel regarding the young mans
actions and Wilson was placed under ar
rest. He denied remaining on the tracks
for the purpose of obstructing the car, but
nevertheless he was obliged to produce $40
bail before he was released.

be. They Tthe Democrats and Populists]
say these pieces of silver shall have JUST
the same purchasing power as the sound
dollars OF past coinage.
"The dollar of to-day stands the un-
cbangeabIe and everlasting pledge of the
United States Government. The great
republic issues it and redeems 1t at the
same value and makes it OF the same
value all over the globe. And what is this
Bryan dollar to be? 1t is to have the same
inscription, the same device, the same In
God We-Trust' motto united thereon, but
what else? Nothing.
"The Government does not issue it and
does not stamp a changeless value on it's
face. There is no reception by the Gov
ernment and no redemption. The mint
only take the rough bullion from the
miner and hands him back the coins it
shapes from that metal, just as the miller
gives back to the farmer the -four be
grinds from the wheat brought to his door.
[Applause.1
II have In my hand two Mexican dol
lars, which have each cents more silver
than the dollars minted in the United
States. Now, / ask why is it that these
two coins. having. .intrinsically more value,
can be bought for one OF our dollars?
Mexico is coming freely 10000, 600 of these
silver dollars every year, but she cannot
bring them up to parity with gold.
Nothing can bring about this equality
of values unless great government, like
that of the United States, stands back of
the coinage. [Applause and cheers.
why did the Democratic party declare
in favor of the ratio of 16 to when they
could have advocated any ratio with as
much reason? Now it took the fathers of
the country years TO learn just the exact
relative value of the money of this land
and to fix its intrinsic and commercial
standing.

Why L. a. &. Brenner Were Included

have been construed to reflection on the
firm. The following letter from plaintiff s
attorney in that suit to L. & G. Brenner,
dated October D. 1896, is self-explanatory !:
