MENELEK TO LEO.
VIII Hold His Italian Prisoners as Guar.
antee of Peace.


Rome, Nov. 1.-THE Vatican official
journal prints the text of letter re-
Gently received by the pope from King
Menelek, of Abyssinia, which was
brought to his Holiness by Mgr. Ma
caire. In his letter King Menelek pro-
tests his devotion to the Pope and
maintains that, since the italian gov
eminent continues in it's attitude of
hostility toward Abyssinia, he is una
BILE to sacrifice the sole guarantee of
peace that holds by restoring to liberty
the Italian prisoners he has taken and
now holds. Menelek also expresses
hope that the Pope will intervene in
the interests of peace, and thus accel-
crate the liberation of the prisoners.

Bruno avenue out to the County line and
the waters of the bay, has swung into line
for Mckinley and home protection.
In order that nothing should be left un-
done to increase the vote that will once
more place the Republican party in con-
troll of the general Government, by which
American industries will be protected
against foreign cheap labor, the young
men of this district residing in South San
Francisco have organized district club.
There are cogent reasons why the men
employed in and about Butchertown
should be strong advocates of home pro-
lection. This, together with past expe-
rience in the hourishing times enjoyed by
the people of this country under Republi.
can rule, has convinced those Young ma.
tive sons of the southern section of thi S
peninsula that the introduction of the sill
yer pill into the National campaign is a
rank fallacy, and that 1t is placed there by
the Democratic demaEogues to be swal-
lowed without investigation as to the dis
order it will undoubtedly bring into the
body polite.
Those young men, enlightened and edu-
Gated as they are, know well that the
promise of an abundance of silver money
without an opportunity to earn it is poor
policy and a blind lgnis-fatuus to allure
the gulIible into voting for the hurrah-
boy from Nebraska.
Such sophistry will not go down the
throats OF the thinking people when on sec.
ond thought it win be found that South
The San Francisco call., 1896-07-25

America and Mexico are rich in silver and
poor in commerce, and that the mechan-
les ana laborers are paid starvation
prices.
Those same young, thoughtful men
have thoroughly realized the fact that
without protection to labor and manufac-
turing industries a general stagnation
must follow, and that the theory of an
abundance of silver bullion be coined into
silver money without an opportunity to
earn and invest in profitable speculation
cuts very little figure to the hard-working
man who may have an opportunity to in
vest his silver dimes on imported articles
while he walks idly about the streets.
With such arguments as those before
the people it must not be wondered at
that the young men of this City are be-
stirring themselves in the organization of
district Republican clubs.
To join in this popular movement is the
intention OF the young Republicans on the
south side of Islais Creek. William Nc
Hugh, the president of the Thirty-third
Assem- bly, District Republican Club, is a
young man engaged in the butchering
business, and has been a resident of South
San Francisco for the past eighteen years.
He is popular with the Republicans of his
district, and was their unanimous choice
for president of the club.
John Lankenau is the son of that old
stanch Republican, Henry Lankenau, who
In years past was one of the men who did
So much for the Republican party in

agement of the club of which he is an
active member. The other officers are
equally true and loyal to Mckinley and
the party and principles he represents.
They are Edward ]. Turner recording Sec
retary, Jerome Milly first vice-president,
j. A. G. Dierks chairman executive COM
mittee, William T. Sewer treasurer, John
Lankenau chairman of enrolling commit
tee, with William McHugh president, and
membership of 170 names on the books
At the next meeting of the club other
committees will be appoin ted and arrange
ments made by which speakers from other
portions of the City will attend from time
to time.

RED REED ARRESTED.
He Profited at the Expense Of Saliva
tiOn Army Man Through the
Lock Trick,

Ed, alias Red, Reed was arrested yester-
day on complaint of William Goette on
the charge of petty larceny. Goette is a
mem Der of the Salvation Army and but
recently came to town. He was fieeced
out OF some money the day after his ar
rival by two men who undertook to show
him the lock trick. He reported the cir
cumstance to the police, but refused to
prosecute, saying that he was Christian
and it was contrary to his professions to
send men to Jail. Yesterday he was on
Telegraph Hill when he fell in with Reed,
a notorious bunco man, who, after brief
acquaintance, offered to show Goette just
how the lock trick, of which he complained,
was done. In the course of the proceedings
Reed gained 81 80 of the strangers money
and refused to return it. This was too
much even for religion, and Goette made
complaint and Reed was arrested.

EFFECT OF COMPROMISE
By Compromising With Part OF Body
Further Proceedings Against 1t
Are Given Up.

The Supreme Court has reversed the
decision of the lower tribunal in tue case
of John Chetwood Jr. against the Cali
fornia National Bank and Richard P.
Thomas.
The plaintiff as stockholder sued for
the recovery of $4O0, 600, which he claimed
had been lost TO the bank through the
culpable negligence of the executive COM
mittee, composed of Mr.. Thomas, presi-
dent of the bank. R. r. Thompson, vice.
president, and Director Robert A. Wilson.
The matter was placed before a referee,
who held that the committee was liable
for the loss of sum in excess of $3.50, 900.
The plaintiff accepted $27,500 from Thomp-
son and Williams and withdrew his action
at law against them. The lower court
then ordered the president to pay over to
Chetwood in trust for the bank the sum of
$139, ,419 with interest.
Thomas appealed, and the Supreme
Court held his appeal to be we'll taken, as
Chetwood's action was against the execu-
tive committee of the board of directors,
and not severaHv against the individual
members of it. His compromise with the
two members, Thompson ana Wilson, was
held to be tantamount to a retraxit;
hence the order of the Supreme Court
that the trial court enter judgment for
Thomas.

The Talk of tine Town

Is found each Saturday in Town TALK. the
neatest, brightest and most readable publiea-
ton of its kind in the journalistic field here
abouts. While considerable space is given to
matters political this week in the editorial
department, Editorial Aftermath" and s'Po-
litical Chat" there is an abundance of lighter
reading of every description, all of which is
uniformly clean and wholesome, even though
it occasionally merges into gossip about we'll
known people. People who do that which
challenges criticism must expect TO be held up
as warning to others 10 avoid the pace that
kills The latest books and magazines are
carefully reviewed in the ''World of Letters"
the Saunterer has some personal comments on
individuals more or less famous, the stage is
considered from critics point OF view and
society's migrations are chronfcled. Town
TALK presents some excellent halftone illus
trations this week, among them portraits of
Miss Catherwood and Dr. Grinnell, whose en-
gagement marks the social event of the

ALMsHoUsE MILK.

The Question OF Price Before the Hos
pital Committee Yesterday.
The Hospital Committee of the Board
of Supervisors spent some time yesterday
trying to ascertain why the City pays so
cents q can for milk for the Almshouse
when an Alameda County milkman offers
to furnish good milk at 40 cents can.
A number of milkmen were present to
testify that good milk could not be fur
nished for that figure. but the Alameda
County dairyman insisted, ueverthe less,
that the milk was pure and that, more
over, he would send it sealed, so that it
could be tested every morning. Super
visor King said that he paid so cents q
can for milk for his hotel, and asked the
rancher if he would furnish milk at 40
cents.
The amount being smaller than that
furnished the Almshouse, the dairyman
would not agree to 40 cents, but offered to
send it in for 40 cents. The matter was
taken under advisement.

A STRONG COMBINE.
Moore. Hunt & Co. of This City and
Jesse Moore a. Co. of kentucky
CnnRnIid nfa

The new company will be known as the
Jesse Moore, Hunt Company, and the
officers are as follows: Thomas Kirk
patrick, president; Shirley Moore, vice
president; w. R. Schmidt, secretary; E.
w. Taggart, assistant secretary; the Lon
don, Paris and American Bank, treasurer.
This change is a most important one for
dealers, as they can now order from
either San Francisco or Louisville. The
firm OF Jesse Moore & Co. was founded in
1858, while that of Moore, Hunt a.
Co. was established in 1875, and it will
thus be seen that the consolidation is that
of two old and well-known concerns. 1t
is OF further advantage to consumers, in
asmuch as il will guarantee a perpetnal
and unfailing supply of the famous old
Jesse Moore whisky.
