IS NOT CHANGED
BY HIS SILVER
Though Owner of a Big
Mine He Will Vote for
Mckinley.
Ex-Secretary P. L. Shuman on
the Necessity Of Pro
lection.
REASONABLE MEN WANT 1T.
Great Changes in the Mining Districts.
Illinois Democrats Never Won
Except by a Fluke.

P. L. Shuman, for many years on the
staff of the Chicago Evening Journal, but
for over dozen years past engaged in i'm
portant mining enterprises, now owner
of elading properties in Calaveras
County, is at the Palace. Mr.. Shuman
has been referred to as at one time Lieu
tenant Governor OF Illinois, but this is in
correct. It was his uncle, the venerable
editor, Andrew Shuman, who occupied
that position.
He is one of the principal owners OF a
large silver mine in the mountains OF
Conejos County, Colorado and he was at
one time heavy owner in the famous 10
DAVIS silver mine at Leadville. His mine
in Conejos County was paying well till
the dep eciatlon came IN the value or
silver. When the white metal fell below
so cents an ounce he could not work the
mine. At s. cents and above, he could
make a handsome profit. Nevertheless,
he does not believe it to be for the good of
the country to have free silver, though as
it is it costs him about $4,000 year to have
the mine looked after while it is closed.
Mr.. Shuman does not let his personal
interest in silver mining change his views
as to what is good for the country. He is
an unfinching Republican and will vote
the ticket as usual.
N"So lar as | can learn" he said Tuesday
night, ''every man who really understands
how much better it is to have protection
than to vote for Mr.. Bryan and free silver
will cast his vote for Mr.. Mckinley. Men
everywhere who have any property in
terests are doing this. do not believe from
what know of Illinois that there can be
the least question as to how that State
will go. predict it will roll up an enor-
nous maioritv for McKinIey. Chicago
will go for him by $4,000.
..Only on Two occasions did Illinois go
Democratic 6n recent years, once when
Altgeld was elected, and another time
previously, and both times it was not be-
cause there was lack Of Republicans, but
because there were local differences that
made some of the Republicans record
their vote as protest. That was all. The
Democrats did not hold that vote. They

DU MAURlER'S "TRILBY."
The Marine journal says No Vessel Has
Ever Been Named After the Mas
ter's Creation.


Ever Been Named After the Mas
ter's Creation.
Mondays southeaster brought in feet
of vessels yesterday afternoon. Three
British vessels, two whaiers and quite
mum ber of coasters got in before dusk.
The Britishers were the Mayfield and
Wanderer from Newcastle. N. s. W., and
the Samantha from Shanghai. The two
former came here in ballast on account of
the strike in the Newcastle collieries, while
the Samantha brings general cargo. All
three are sure of ch arters, as the demand
for wheat in Europe, Asia and Australia
is on the increase.
The ''new woman" has become marine
reporter. She went out to the Point Lobos
station yesterday and explained to the
observer Tor the Merchants Exchange that
she was on that detail from the Ex-
change" She wanted to use the telescope,
examine the books and generally run the
place.
The observer demanded her credentials
and as she could not produce anv the
new woman" was gently but firmly
ordered out of the premises. Abe Marks
of the Exchange, who furnished The CALL
with the description OF the sailing of the
Acapulco is anxious to know VINO the

'new woman" is, but the observer at
Point Lobos refuses to give any details.
George Du Maurier, the author of
Trilby,' has died without the honor of
any vessel, so far as we can ascertain,
having been named after his popular
heroine" says the Marine Journal. Yet
for vessel with a typically beautiful
forefoot it ought to be mascottish cog
nomen."
What's the matter with the stern
wheeler Trilby OF San Francisco? When
she was launched a few months ayo at
North Beach her "typically beautiful fore
foot" stuck in the mud and it took two
tides to get her off. Then how about the
barge Svengali? The latter was tied up
in Mission Bay last August and the Trilby
came along in the dark and ran into it.
The Trilbys and Svengalis in the bay of
San Francisco are certainly not things of
beauty, still we have them.
The Oceanic Company's Monowai will
take away almost as large a cargo as the
Mariposa. Over 100 tons of canned goods
au aited her arrival, and since then the
merchandise has kept piling up. Over
1000 bicycles will go away on her and
hops, wheat and general merchandise will
crowd the vessel.
The French bark Lamoriciere, after dis
charging her ballast at Main street, has
been placed on the drydock. During the
run here from Valparaiso she sprung
leak and an examination showed that
several rivets were sprung and that gen.
eral overhauling was necessary.
Some months ago the engines and
boilers of the stern-wheel steamer Frank
Silva were taken out and replaced with a
gasoline apparatus. On the first trial there
was an explosion, but fortunately no one
was injured. Repairs we're made and
another trial took place yesterday. 1t was
cr1na nd fntr ho t1vu mill f,n
propelled by gasoline.
During Mondays rale the schooner
Glendale went ashore near Selby's smelt-
ing works. She was loaded with lumber
for the Port Costa Lumb Der Company but
was in safe position. The steamer Sunol
of the Piper, Alden, Goodall Company
came along and in answer to the signals
on the Glendale went to her assistance.
The schooner was towed off and put on
the right course for Selby's.
The big 13-lnch gun for Lime Point is
now lying on barge at the foot of Fol-
som street. Accompanying it is donkey
engine, which will be used 10 land the big
gun when Lime Point is reached.
The first load of stone for the new ferry
derot arrived yesterday. 1t will only be
few weeks when the iron work will have
so far progressed as to make it possib for
q beginning to be made on 9 stone work,
In the meantime the Commissioners are
viewing the subject from all points of in
terest
Colonel F. s. Chadbourne of the Harbor
Commission returned from the East yes
terday. He says that New York has no
wharf that can compare with Pacific street
wharf i'll this City and that Mckinley is
sure winner. The colonel is now Clean
shaven, as he says he could not endure
the winds of Colorado.
The tug Fearless, three days from Ma.
naimo, came in last evening with deck
load OF coal which she took on in order to
proceed south, as was at first intended.
The steamer Del Norte, which was to
have arrived yesterday, is reported bar
bound at Coos Bay.

FOR HALLOWEEN.

Splen did Programme Prepared by the
Thistle Club for Friday Evening.
For the past few weeks the literary and
games committees of the San Francisco
Scottish Thistle Club have been busy per-
fecting arrangements for their fifteenth
grand annual Halloween entertainment
and ball, to take place at B'nai Birth
Hall on Friday evening. A splendid pro-
gramme has been prepared, the hall will
be appropriately decorated and an excel
lent time is assured to all who may attend.
A grand ball will follow under the direc-
ton of William Grant and corps of as
sIstants. No stone has been left unturned
by the committees in charge to make this
one of the most enjoyable affairs ever
given by this popular club.

regarding his chance of being elected to
the Assem- bly,, said:
"There is no chance about it. The peo-
pie of the Thirty fifth District are for the
Republican party.
"It is not men but measures with the
voters of this district"
William H. Gieeson, the nominee OF the
regular Republican convention, said,
when asked for his opinion: my district
is somewhat large and scattering, and as a
consequence it has taken me some time to
get over it. But have done SO and am
consequently in position to give express
sion to my experience. | am very conf
dent of being elected to the Assembly

will not do so this year. That is why l

will not do so this year. That is why l
say illinois will go for Mckinley.
ut is wonderful what change has
taken place in California mining regions
for Mckinley. In the west part of Gala
veras the voters are almost unanimously
for him. Elsewhere in the county it is
much the same. Even the Democrats are
for him. At Angels even, despite that it
is Mr.. Lanes own town, think it is
doubtful if he gets majority for Bryan.
The change is remarkable. l estimate
that the State will go for Mckinley by
5000 or 6000."
