Supposititious Stockholders Views on
Mr., Shaw's Latest Enterprise.


An investigation, made yesterday by a
representative of The Herald concern
ing the recently formed Ocean Steam
Transit company Qimited), which filed
articles of Incorporation with the county
clerk one day last week disclosed the
fact that the whoe affair was nothing
more than a promising hoax. According
to the articles filed the capital stock was
placed at S5,250,00 with the amount of
$1,000,0oO as actually subscribed Sew
eral well known business men and cap
italists of this city were named as the
directors of the project. Mr.. l.. N. Breed,
who was mentioned as one of the direct
ors, stated last night that his first
knowledge Of the actual formation. of
such company had been obtained from
reading a copy OF. the articeseof incor-
poration. Some time between six months
and year ago he said that he had been
approached by f. NJ. Shaw of Santa
Monica concerning some such project as
the one proposed in the articles of incor-
poratin. Knowing that Shaw had a
weakness for building railroads and
steamship lines on paper-after listen
ing patiently to description of the pro-
posed enterprise and a glowing account
of the big dividends 1t would pay, in
quired how much of the capital stock
remained untaken. On being informed
that there was only a matter of a few
million dollars still left, M. Breed i'm
mediately told Shaw to go ahead with
the enterprise as he would gladly take
the balance of the stock. After saying
this Mr.. Breed thought no more about
the matter until he noticed copy of the
articles of Incorporation in the paper.
Evidently some one has been imposed
upon, and it looks as If Mr.. Shaw were
out of pocket to the extent of a dollar
and a half, the cost Of fling the papers

Congressman Boutelle Makes an Ad-

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 17.-When
the Santa Fe overland rolled in from
Barstow this morning from Hon. c. A.
Boutelle and daughter of Maine on
board, large number of citizens were
assembled to welcome him to California,
together with special committees of re-
ception from this city and Los Angeles.
After the usual handshakings the dis
tinguished visitor was introduced to
the assemblage and spoke as follows:
my friends, 1 am not a boy orator,
nor an orator of any kind, but / have
come from a goodly state to greet some
of my old fellow citizens of Maine here
in California, and before the train
moves l simply want to express my
cordial appreciation of your kindness
and courtesy in coming to the train to
greet me on my first vicsit to your beau
tiful state. L don't know anything L
can say to you that ought to be of
more pleasure to American citizens than
to bring to you the greeting of that
great American, that great statesman
that great protectionist. that great
apostle of American prosperity, Will
lam Mckinley of Ohio, (aplause) whom
1 left only few days ago at his home in
Canton, where he was receiving the
greetings of his fellow citizens of every
section of the country, who are coming
there in pilgrimages to the shrine of
liberty and progress. to assure him that
in the campaign which is now rapidly
nearing it's close, is also nearing the tri-
umph of the Republican party (aplause)
and the triumph Of those loyal Demo-
Gratis, who have put country above par
ty in this campaign, to assure him that
the American people, recognizing those
principles which have tended to our
prosperity and greatness in the past,
and, like all other sensible people, TAX
ing counsel from experience, desire to
restore the control of the administra-
tion of this magnificent country to the
political organization that has been
identified with its grandest era Of prog
res and prosperity.
Gov Mckinley wished me to bring
his greeting to you in California, feel
ing certain that the Golden State will
be in the front rank Of patriotism"

LONG BEACH. Oct. 1.-THE woman
suffrage medal contest under the aus
pices of the Suffrage club, at the tabel'-
nacle Friday night, was in every sense a
success. The lady speakers were very
evenly matched, and it took the judges,
Messrs. Lawson, Stafford and Moore, a
long time to decide the winner, so close
was the competition. Eight ladies took
part in the competition for the medal,
and Miss M. M. Fette recited The Ans
wer while the audience awaited the de-
cision.. The floral decorations cf plat
form and building were superb, the bril-
liant hued chrysanthemum being gor-
geously conspicuous.
The program was enlivened by guitar
solo by Miss Alice Glass of Pasadena,
and an instrumental quartette consist
ing of guitars, mandolin and banjo, by
Misses Glass, Decker and Messrs. Foote
and Smith.
The contest was carried out under
the supervision of Miss Nina G. Cuth-
bert, superintendent OF the state w. C.

at Chicago. and Mr. Stradley, member
of the state executive COMMITTEE.
Harry Patton OF Los Angeles, pre-
sided. and With a few remarks intro
duced the first speaker, Mr.. w 2. Strad-
ley. He said that no movement was
ever stiiled by persecution since the
world began. The question is whether
the people or monopolies shall rule He
would discuss the financial question
from the standpoint of monopoly. They
favor scarce money because they know
they can corner it better. The real an
archists are those who ring dishonest
profit from honest labor. We propose to
make gold and silver one money. Despite
the fact that there is class to whose
interest it is that the people shall not
understand the financial question, they
do understand it. The relative volumes
Of money and commodities determines
the price Of commodities. The righ-
kind of sound money does not vary in
value. Gold is not sound 1t does vary.
Mckinley advocates more taxation to
bring prosperity. He thinks a man can
llFl IllfuSGll over u fence Cy luSSlHS aC
his boot straps. Open the mills by OPEN
ing the mints and increasing the volume
of money. The gold men tell US that if
we have free silver all the nations will
bring theirs to have it coined. Let them
do so. Because outside of this country
our dollars are worth only bullion.
Therefore the visitors must spend their
dollars here and invest in American in
dustry. We can by legislation make n
demand for commodity and so raise it's
value. The gold men also say that il
we had free silver the mine owner could
take his SO cents worth of bullion, go to
the mint and receive one dollar for it.
But stop, do they not in the same breath
say that that same dollar is worth only
SO cents? Silver has never varied in
purchasing value. We will never have
International bimetallism until the
United States forces it upon the nations
of the world. The United States does
not have to consult other nations in re-
gard to her financial system.
w. r. Bourke, who was to have been
the first speaker, was delayed and
therefore followed Mr.. Stradley, who
had become so warmed up to his SUBJ
ject that there was little time left for
the gentleman who nominated Sewall at
Chicago. However, Mr.. Burke said that
on his way here from Los Angeles he had
passed the two political meetings in that
city. At one of them Mr.. Boutelle of
Maine was speaking. He was the only
man in the senate who had voted against
certain recent pension bill in the inter-
ests Of the old soldiers. Such men as
