other members of the delegation also
mace brlei remarks, also adding deserved
words OF praise for the work Miss Hay has
faithfully performed.
Miss Hay spoke briefly in acknowledge
ment. She said that she did not think
that she deserved the mark of favor which
had been given to her, but she could ap-
preciate 1t, coming as it did from gentle
men who know something of business and
OF political work. She would be glad to
show the gift to her people and to say that
there were 80 600 good strong men in Cali
1ornla. She appreciated the gift more
than she could ever express in words and
more than those present could possibly
understand.

all the workers looked for direction. She

DE YOUNG ROASTED.
A Housing Meeting at Metropolitan
Hall-RinginR Speeches.

A Rousing Meeting at Metropolitan
Hall-RinginR Speeches.
The meeting at Metropolitan Temple
was 'rouser," filling all the seating and
standing space under the big roof. AS
Miss Hay said, it ''dld not look like lost
cause"
Miss Anthony presided and had the
audience with her all the time.
The officers of the convention of the
afternoon read the resolutions and told of
the work OF the campaign, the resolutions
read by Mrs. Harper being warmly ap-
plauded.
Judge Mcguire was introduce by Miss
Anthony and was greeted as frie nd. He
said that among the best speeches he had
heard during he campaign were made by
women while advocating their cause. He
said he had been embarrassed during his
own canvass. For himself he stood for
woman suffrage not as such but as favor
ing part OF universal suffrage for which
he stood. His embarrassment had arisen
from the fact that his own party in con-
vention had refused to indorse woman
suffrage in its platform. and speaking
under the auspices of that party it would
have been unseemly in him to speak his
views upon the biect of suffrage.
he hoped that at the next convention
OF his party the plank for suffrage would
be favored by large majority. So far
from the fight being finished he declared
it was In iull flood, and would not finish
until women voted with men.
Rev. DIR. Mclean of Oakland was intro
duced a relative-in-Iaw of Miss An
thony-her eldest sister had married his
eldest brother.
And my eldest brother got a very ex-
cellent wife," said Mr. Mclean. '.And.
further, some man has missed the best
wife that God could have furnished him
in that Susan B. Anthony remains un-
married. Great applause.
Dr. Mclean made a strong little talk,
followed by Miss Hay, whose likeness to
Miss Shaw keep things little confused
in the woman's suffrage camp.
Mrs. Catherine Chapman Gait made an
eloquent talk. She had hoped, she said,
that their great leader would be able 10
walk with them into the promised land,
but now she did not know. Certainly this
woman. she said, had been divinely gifted
for this special mission, and her place was
already secure among the immortals.
But there is newspaper of this City.
great newspaper, and an owner OF that
newspaper whose name will be held in
Ioathing and contempt by men and women
who look for honesty and right in high
places. So long as the name of san B.
Anthony is revered the names of these
others will be despised." Applause
Rev. Anna shaw was the last speaker
and her effort was one of the most elo-
quent of her series of addresses
She told her hearers that suffrage was as
certain as the incoming tide, the cause
and the efforts of those engaged in it as
resistless as the sea. In conclusion she
simply said, "Good-by.'
NJ IS Anthony bade farewell on behalf
of herself and the other six Eastern
women who came out for the campaign.

The Collector Charged With

FIGHT AFTER LIE WAS PASSED
The Journal of Commerce Man Was
Belligerent and Scored Point

The clerks and visitors in the County
Clerks office were treated to lively setto
yesterday, In which ]. J. Rauer, the col
lector, and Moses Barnett of the Journal
of Commerce were the principals. 1t was
one of the very few interesting fights re-
sulhng from the election and the audience
enjoyed it greatly.
Barnett, who was interested to some ex-
tent in the canvass of w. A. Deane for
the office of Auditor, has been MAKING
statements that Rauer put up $500 to keep
Mr.. Chapman, the independent candidate
for Auditor, in the fl Id, for the express
purpose OF defeating Deane These tales
came to the ears OF the collector. and
when he met Barnett yesterday he de-
manded to know the truth of the matter.
Yes, did say that yon were trying to
beat Deane, ans wered Barnett, land
moreover can prove it. You were stand
ing in with another candidate to beat him,
and you know it,
Rauer looked him in the eye for an in
slant and then said slowly:
lou are liar, SIR
Barnett did not delay about beginning
hostilities, but swung his right on Rauer's
eye and was preparing for another blow
when the porily and thoroughly ed
collector closed on him and a rough-and-
tumble contest, without regard to the
rules of he ring, ensued.
Both clawed and punched desperately

clerks were exhausted and somewhat the

The highest degree of credit for this res ult is
due to Mary G. Hay, National organizer and
chairman of the Woman Suffrage State Central

ability and tact. Her organizing power, clear
head and gentle frmness have won foreher

The House of Mrs. j. S. Mayer Entered.
Ladies Frightened.
A burglar entered the residence of Mrs.
]. S. Mayer, COCA Powell street. near Bush,
some time during Thursday night. 1t is
thought he entered through the front door
and passed through the hau into front
room occupied by young man who lodges
in the house. Then he must have passed
through the south side of the bay-window
out onto small veranda, and from there
entered the bay window OF the front par
lor. He probably went back into the
back parlor, which is the sleeping apart
ment of the Misses Birdie and Tress
Mayer.
There had been left on the bureau a
purse containing So IS and some rare
coins. All these were taken except the
purse, which was left behind with cent
in it.
On the way in the burglar went through
the pock is of the young lodger and Sc
cured So 90.
1t is believed that he must have been
scared off before he could do any more
damage. He went out by unlocking the
parlor door from the inside and passed
out through the hall.
The mere though of man having been
in their room has almost given the Misses
Mayer nervous prostration.
