ALLEGED ANARCHIST PLOT.
A Changed Train Schedule Prevents Cor

nelius Vanderbilt's Abduction.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 7-George e.
Gard late chief of the Southern Pacific
company's detective service, came up from
Los Angeles last night and gave publicity
to one of the most remarkable stories of
an anarchist plot that was ever heard in
San Francisco. The plot, according to
Mr.. Gard, was nothing less than n conspir.
acy TO hold up the Vanderbilt special train
and abduct Cornelius Vanderbilt.
shortly before the Vanderbilt party
reached El Paso," said Mr.. Gard, II re.
ceived letter which detailed in some de
grees the plans of a gang of extremists
The letter was the most startling epistle
ever received, but l was convinced i'm.
mediately of it's genuineness, for 1 knew
the person as well as his history thoroughly
From what could judge by the letter the
conspirators had agreed among themselves
TO hold up the Vanderbilt special train al
some point in the San Joaquin valley, and
make the best haul that was possible. II
no money was to be had any other way
Cornelius Vanderbilt was to be kidnapped
and everyone else in the party was to bt
killed, If necessary in the accomplish
ment of the end in view
"The anarchists, if they can be called
SUCH had laid their plans to hold up the
train at some convenient point in the Sar
Joaquin valley. But the time schedule
was changed, the visitors remained ovei
night in their train at Bakersfield, after
visiting Santa Barbara, and came VI
through the San Joaquin valley by day
light on Tuesday last This or some Other
cause upset the plans of the robbers"

ALL FOR BRYAN
Great Enthusiasm Among the SiIverites at
Riverside

Riverside county is overwhelmingly
for Bryan and silver" said Jud r. Rush
last evening. Mr.. Rush ought to know
something about the matter, for he had
just returned from the metropolis of the
orange groves, where on Saturday even
ing he had addressed the largest politi-
cal meeting ever held IN Riverside
county.
The meeting was made up of Demo-
Gratis, Populists and ex-Republicans
Judge E. H. Lamme of this city also
spoke for thirty minutes, and his re-
marks were applauded to the echo. He
made strong and forcible address, Civ
ing the unanswerable reasons why an
advocate of silver should renounce for
mer allegiance to political parties and
cast his vote for William Jennings Bry-
an for president.
Hon. j. l.. MadduX of Modesto, the
Democratic nominee for congress in the
Seventh district, also spoke for thirty
minutes.
In Riverside county all the silver
forces are united and working harmoni-
ously together for Bryan. They are be-
ing thoroughly organized throughout
the county. The club system has been
adopted. Last week eight Bryan Silver
clubs were organized in Riverside
county.
This evening Mr.. Rush will address a
Bryan ratification meeting at Pomona.

Two Interesting 0ames At Athletic Park
Yesterday
Yesterdays games at Athletic park
were between the Trilbys and Wilson's,
and Admirals and Wilson's. The first
game was won by the Trilbys by a
score of to 4. The Trilbys won the
game by outplaylng the Wilson's at ali
points, both in the field and at the bat,
Mari, Nettles, Griffin and Walker es-
pecially distinguished themselves in the
field, and Marr and Nettles led their
team In hitting, the former being cped-
tied with three two-baggers One Of the
features of the work of the Trilbys was
the fine battery work of Shaw and Car
roll. The Wilson's were completely at
the mercy of Shaw as they were unable
to hit him when hits were needed. Ba-
ker for the Wilson's did we'll except In
the first and eighth innings when he
was touched up for several hits. Kid
Henry caught his usual steady game.
The entire infield of the Wilson's had an
off day, with the exception of e. Moore
and Guercio. Long was about the only
one of the Wilson's who could connect
with ShaW's curves.
The second game was won by the Ad-
miralS by u score of 13 to TO-, in ten in
nings Tyler and Henry We're the bat
terry for the Wilson's and Thomas and
Franck pitched and Nash caught for
the Admirals. The game was very ex-
citing and abounded in brilliant plays.
Nash and Hanlon's home runs, and
fuckers running one-hand catch We're
the features. Tyler. the beneficiary, re-
ceived quite an ovation when he stepped
into the box.

open silver and gold accounts. The man
who brought us 500 In silver was credit
ed with so many dollars In that coin and
the man who brought gold was credited
in that coin. 1t is only a matter of book
keeping, but you may rest assured that
our present depositors will all be paid
in gold"
e. A. Becker, president of the German
Savings and Loan society, spoke In very
much the same terms as Mr.. Tobin. and
gave full assurance of payment in gold
to present depositors. Mr. Becker said
"A bank in California receiving gold
is morally bound to pay in gold. A bank
that would undertake to act differently
could not keep open for forty-eigh
hours. The people would lose confidence
in such a bank and would at once want
their deposits.
Il don't think. even IL free coinage
should become the law, that it would
work in California as some expect it
may at the east. We have the expert
ence of the civil war period to guide us
on this matter. We know that then
California banks paid everything in
gold, while at the east nothing but paper
and little silver was in circulation" "

A WRATHY MANAGER
Claims That He Has Suffered by The Times
Urderhanded Methods

S. p. Hatcher, general manager Of the
Southern California Telephone COM
pany, last evening called at The Herald
office to deny certain false statements
| concerning the new corporation which
he said appeared in the Times Saturday.
Mr.. Hatcher said:
Friday there came into my office a
man who asked where DR.. Potts had
gone. On being Informed that the doc
tor had gone to San Jose he then wanted
to know If the new telephone scheme
had fallen through. He was informed
that DIR. Potts did not come here to run
the. telephone at all, but came here on
account of his health, and as the doc
tor was going to be one of the company
the contracts We're taken in his name as
matter of convenience. This man was
then asked If there was anything else
that he or the local telephone company
would like to know, but he denied that
he had anything to do with that COM
pany, and stated that he had signed sew
eral contracts with our company and
was merely asking for his own informa-
tion. This was a falsehood. for he
never signed contract with our COM
pany at all. He was then asked his
name, which he gave as 'Palatine.' This
was another falsehood for his name is
not Palatine at all, but he is a reporter
on the Times.
''Mr. 'Palatine' further states that Mr.
Hatcher, the alleged agent of DIR. Potts.
remains amid confusion to explain that
everything is all right Mr.. Hatcher is
not the alleged agent of DR.. Potts or
any one else. 1 came here as the repre-
sentative of my company, Of which
I am general manager, and am going to
remain here until the system is COM
pleted.
Mr. 'Palatine' states that he was in
formed by me that $4,000 of the stock
had been sold, and that if local capital
could be secured the scheme would be a
success. This is another of Mr.. 'Pala-
tines falsehoods, for we have never
| asked for local capital or tried to sell a
dollars worth of stock in Los Angeles.
We have all the money necessary to
build the system without going outside
of the company to sell stock.
II have no objection to telling any one
anything they wish to know concerning
| the building of the system, but the next
| time Mr.. 'Palatine' finds his way into
| my office he will be treated to a good
| shaking and swift kick
Mr. Hatcher said that he would be
| glad to furnish any legitimate informa-
| ton about his company. and only OBJ
| jected to the underhand methods en-

INAPT STATE MECHANICS.
Applications which Once Fitted Are No
Losing Their Force.

Applications Which Once Fitted Are Now
Losing Their Force.
State nicknames in this country have
begun to lose their aptness. New Hamp-
shire's name, the Granite state, fits al
most as well some other mountainous
states, and she really never deserved to
be called the Switzerland of America,
since her mountains are but hills COM
pared with the mountains of Switzer-
land. Several of the Rocky mountain
states more nearly deserve this title.
Colorado, for example, has Al mountains
more than $4,000 feet high, and, in all.
| 139 mountains more than 1850 feet
high. Colorado's own name of b Cen
tenniaI state is one that no other can
ever dispute with her, though it looks as
If Colorado might dispute the name
Golden with California.
Names forests are disappearing so
rapidly that some of the northwestern
states may soon nave n better title to
the name Pine Tree state. There are
more famous bays than that of Massa-
chusetts, and certainly Chesapeake bay,
If considered only as a body of water,
has more distinction than Massachu-
sets, and historically, the Chesapeake is
quite as famous, so that the name Bay
state might, with aptness, be given to
Maryland.
There are quite as characteristic
green mountains elsewhere in the
United States as those that gave YER
mont her French name. The Empire
state seems inappropriate to any dem
ocratic community, but it is appropriate
to New York, if to any state of the
union, and 1t is likely to be along while
before even Texas al lay claim to the
title. The name that Texas takes pride
in, the Lone Star state, is certainly hers
by right, as she is the only state to have
come to be an independent republic, to-
tally unconfederated with any other
state. Pennsylvania Is no longer the
keystone of the unions nrch, Just rs 1t
is no longer politically true that as
Pennsylvania goes so goes the union.
If Delaware ever deserved her name of
the Diamond state she certainly cannot
claim it against Rhode Island, since the
latter Is not only much smaller, but, as
well, much richer.
No state disputes Virginia's pictur-
esque name, the Old Dominion, though
few people realize hat it dates back to a
time wheno our Atlantic coast knew only
two well-defined political divisions
New England and Virginia. Ohio's
buckeyes are no longer a distinguishing
feature of her rapidly disappearing
woodlands. Indiana is being civilized
out of her ~hoosierdom, and the wolver-
inc must be pretty scarce in the state
to which the beast has given q nick
name.
Connections has learned so many
smart tricks since the days of the ira
ditional wooden nutmegs that her
neighbors could easily discover an apter
name of reproach. Louisiana doubtless
ly has as many pelicans as Florida or
any other state, and so may well hold
to her nick name, while North Carolini-
ans are properly enough called tar
heels, since their state is still famor
for tar and kindred products.-N
