votes of the committee was secured by
two forged proxies. The Spear men con-
ceded that their action was illegal 1t
the forgery could be proved, and said
they would introduce evidence to prove
that they were not forged. An immense
amount of documentary evidence was
introduced and it will take the commit
tee all night to go through it. Reuf
said II his side was right he wanted the
whole delegation, not half of 1t. If they
were wrong, they would gracefully re-
tire. Reuf made some caustic remarks
that greatly excited the outsiders in
sympathy with Spreclkles. A row was
imminent ard Reuf finally confined him
self to simply reading his affidavits.
After Reuf had finished his statement
the committee went into executive ses-
sion.
Tomorrow's session Of the conven-
ton may be in marked contrast to the
harmonious session of today. The A. p.
A., in attempting to dictate, may cause
trouble. George A. Knight says he re-
ceived an invitation from the A. F. A. to
conform to their ideas, and that he re-
fused. He says he is not out of the fight
for delegate at large by any means. and
intends to make the fight of his life to-
morrow. He thinks that he has enough
friends in the state outside of San Fran
cisco to see him through. Late tonight
the slate for delegates at large was said
to be L. A. Sheldon of Los Angeles,
Senator Gleaves of Shasta. John d.
Spreckels and Irving M. Scott of San
Francisco Grant of San Diego may be
chosen, however. in place of Scott 1t
is stated that Spreckels gave out to-
night that knight could be nominated
ii he would promise not to make too
much trouble over the instruction of
delegates for Mckinley. This Knight
refuses to do, but will try for the nomi-
nation without Spreckcls' assistance.
The committee on platform held
long session tonight. 1t is understood
that there will be a plank favoring sill
Yer. another favoring woman suffrage,
one for good roads, and, of course a
declaration in favor of protection. There
will be no anti-furdins bill resolution, it
is stated

Saturday afternoon, and fired eight
shots into her body, killing her. AL
bert Baker, a prominent citizen, was
shot in the wrist while graphing with
French, who ran through the streets
eight blocks pursued by an angry mob
of 300 people. He held the mob at bay
on the river front where he was cap
tured but after firing the contents of
two revolvers without serious results,
he shot himself through the head and
jumped into the river. French was re-
suscitated and taken to the county
Jail. His wound is not fatal. Jealousy
was the cause of the murder.

While business in advertising
circles is almost unprecidentedly
dull at present, the advertisers are
being heard from to the effect that
as soon as the election is over and
the currency question being then
practically settled, they are going
to advertise very largely. They
seem to think that reaction is
imminent and they believe that a
good, vigorous advertising cam
paign will be profitable next sea-
son. There have been several Of
the large English advertisers who
do business in the United States,
