OTHER FREAKS TO HEAR FROM
Enough Old Bets to Make a Big Show
if They Were Placed Under
One Canopy.

There were many freak bets on the elec-
ton. One man loses his whiskers and
another agreed to wheel his~iFiend N
wheel5arrow from the ferries to Tenth
street.
The unique features of the late Demo
cratic disaster are now coming into notice
and nothing is more amusing than the
fleakish bets that some peoples exuber-
ance led them TO make on the outcome.
Returns are not yet in from the great
border-land region that lies between SAN
lty and insanity, where men agree to let
their hair grow for ten years if so and so
wins or loses this or that Office, nor have
the fat men who agreed to fast for forty
days II Bryal: were beaten been seen, but
news OF several marvellous bets has come
to the notice of THE CALL.
John Hadley OF 630% Ellis street wears
long, flowing beard, which has been his
pride for nearly quarter of a century.
His patriarchal appearance has long made
MIN conspicuous figure and his beard
mas been the wonder that has amazed the
chlldren Tor many blocks around. But I
John Hadley is man OF his word his
beard must come off within five days after
Charm an Jones comedies Bryan's defeat,
Tor such Was the tenor OF bet he made
with Henry Arson, who now goes clean
shaven, and who agreed never TO shave
again should Mckinney be defeated. Had
ley must go one whole year without his
beard. Ii ne then Graves its return he
will probably not live long enough for it
10 reach its present length. His friends
believe he will bay back the privilege of
wearing his whiskeTs, and il is believed
Anson Will charge him a good sum for
SIGNING release from the obligation.
The following is the copy OF wheel
barrow bet made by two well-known men,
whose confidence was as great as that of
Fred Becker of Oakland, who roasted
peanuts and sold them OH the street all
day when Cleveland was defeated.
Welch will wheel Kiipstein from the
ferries 10 Tenth street on November Is as
per the terms of the following agreement:

A unique feature of the after-election
freaks was on exhibition all day yesterday
at the San Francisco Fish Market on Clay

with burning tapers. Above it was the
following legend on a placard:

5000 More Armenians Slaughtered.

London: The Anglo Armenian asso-
citation has received a telegram from
Constantinople which says that 1900
Armenians have been massacred at
ArabiIir, and that the widows and
orphans of those killed are in terrible
distress from cold and hunger. The
dispatch also says that the Armenians
of Sivas and Cesarea are in daily fear
of massacre. Forced conversions to
Islamism are general throughout the
AsIatic provinces.
London: The Daily News has a dis
patch from Constantinople which says
that on the first day of the Ramadan
festival, the Turks surrounded the
Armenian quarter in Marsovan and or
dered the Armenians to accept Islam.
Five hundred of them agreed TO do SO,
but $50 recalcitrants were killed.
The Chronicle has a dispatch from
Constantinople which says that fresh
series of massacres is reported in the
Sivas and Knarput districts.

Cuban F,libpsters C,ptured.

The iron steamer Bermuda, flying
the British flag, was boarded and
seized by revenue officers off Liberty
Island in New York harbor. The
Bermuda had been under the watch of
Spanish spies for some time under sus-
picion of carrying a Cuban filibuster
expedition. There was evidence that
she was preparing for sea and at / D.
m, just after a large party of Cubans
had gone aboard, the revenue cutter
Hudson steamed alongside and
boarding party arrested all on the
Bermuda. No resistance was offered.
Every man was seized. Among the
captives was Gen. Garcia's son and
several other prominent Cubans. Four
bags of gold were seized by the mar
shals and great quantity of arms and
ammunitions
A. G. Gonzalez, n New York lawyer,
connected with the Cuban junta, esti-
mated that the expedition had cost
about 500, 000 The Cubans, he said,
were by no means discouraged how
ever.

Rouslng Reception to DR. Jameson.

A great crowd greeted DIR. Jameson,
the leader of the Transvaal raid, when
he was arraigned at the Bow street
police court, London, on charge OF
warning against friendly state"
Fourteen of DIR. Jameson's closest fol-
lowers had to answer the same charge.
DIR. Jameson's entrance to the court
was signal for "A remarkable scene.
Evidently everyone in the court room
was of one mind in sympathizing with
him. All were his friends, and all rose
and uncovered upon his appearance,
giving him hearty cheers. 1t was in
vain that the court officers sought to
quell the demonstration. 1t was evil
dent that, although he was on trial as
criminal, he is in the popular eye
hero and his raid into the Transvaal,
far from being viewed as piratical
enterprise, is looked upon as chival-
rous and knightly adventure to succor
hard-pressed friends and fellow-coun-
trymen.
After the preliminaries of the hear
ing Sir John Bridge, chief magistrate,
spoke of the seriousness of the charge
against the men, but admitted them
To $4,000 bail each on their personal
recognizance. AS jameson and his
men left the building they were given
a wild ovation by waiting mob num-
bering thousands.

Importance In garment making and kindred
lines anect trade in Chicago ana baltimore

as existing conditions warn wage earners that
controversies at this time are unwise Wheat
has taken hight upward, with rumors OF for
eign supplies as the only basis Estimates OF
wheat IN farmers hands are lower than last
year but stll indicate with visible stocIs ~
supply much beyond probable needs Cotton
has been weaker, with only fair receipts the
important decline In goods having much infiu-
ence. Wooden mills are receiving Considerable
orders for spring goods but business for the f,l-
ture does not mend. The feature in iron has
been the large demand for wrought and cast

CRYING for VAR In Madrid.

Madrid: If one may judge by the
things that have been SAID, and some
of the things that have been done, the
Spanish people are enthusiastically de-
termined to go to war forthwith with
the United States, and to speedily
avenge the insult which, il is fancied,
has been offered to the naughty pride
of Spain by the u. $. senate. Some of
the organs of public opinion declare
that the bankruptcy of the Spanish
government would not prevent the
Spanish people from taking up the
quarrel on their own account,
and fitting out expeditions and
maintaining themselves at their own
expense while com batting the insolence
of the assertions of the United States.
There seems to have been notable
increase of excitement and pat
riotic ardor among the people
since the news of the senates
action was first made known.
The Spanish authorities seem to have
felt approximations of the form the
peoples wrath might take, and pro-
vided special safeguards for the sup
preston of disorders. and especially
for the protection of any official repre-
sentative of the u. ). government

Rebellion i'm Nicaragua

The flag of rebellion has once more
been raised in Nicaragua and reports
received from the north show that the
whole district north of Lake Managua
is in open rebellion against President
Zelaya. Martial law has been pro-
claimed and the impressing of men
into the army is being pushed rapidly
Managua is being prepared for defense.
All mail and telegraphic communion
ton between Managua and the dis
turbed districts have been stopped.
Details of the condition of affairs are
therefore meagre.
The substance of the demands of the
Leonists is u complete revision of the
constitution, giving further and more
popular representation, and that the
constitution in future should contain
provisions making it impossible for a
dictatorship to be declared.
United States Minister Baker has
cabled to Washington requesting that
the United States gun vessel Alert be
dispatched to Corinto in order TO pro-
tect the property of the United States
citizens.
