Point Lobos Impr mt C, ub Listens
but Dos Not Indorse Any Of
the Speakers.

The Point Lobos Improvement Club
met last evening on Fifth avenue, between
Clement street and Point Lobos avenue
the avowed purpose being to listen to all
candidates for political office who pre-
sented themselves. President George r.
Fletcher, who presided, explained this.
1--WE are not here for the purpose of in
dorsing any candidate, but to give you
an opportunity to see, to hear and to
judge of those who are asking for your
votes"
William P. Johnson, the secretary of the
club, kept list of all the speakers. The
list was long. All parties and factions
were represented. The speech of the even
ing was made by George W. Elder, the
nominee for Superintendent of Streets on
the regular Republican ticket.
"You all know my record" said Mr..
Elder. 81 have been the expert of the
Board of Supervisors two years. l have
seen to it that contractors should live
strictly up to the specifications. l have
twelve years experience with the streets.

THE GERMAN DEMOCRATS
Addressed by Governor Budd and
Congressman Mcguire in
Metropolitan Hall.
The Meeting Was Also Spoken to in
the man Lqngu ge by Dr. Max
M.gnus and M Greenblatt.

There was meeting of Ameri-
can Democrats at Metropolitan Hall last
night.
Max Greenblatt opened the meeting and
said that a speech in the German or any
other foreign language sounded better in
Democratic meeting than in others, be-
cause the Democratic party has been the
friend of Americans OF foreign birth.
The speaker was interrupted by voice
calling for Budd, but Greenblatt went on
and said that it was singular that Demo
Gratis should be called anarchists for daring
to have an Independent financial policy of
their own.
Again the speaker was interrupted with
cries of "Give US James Budd." Still he
went on and defended the financial policy
OF the Democratic party, and then eulo-
gized the Democrats elected at the State
election two years ago.
Governor Budd was then introduced as
chairman of the meeting and was received
with cheers. He reviewed the courses of
the campaign of 1894, and told how he had
appe aled to the Germans to vote for him.
He then suggested that if men were or
dered to wear Mckinley buttons they
could go into the polling-booths and there
90 back on the declaration of the emblem
they wore.
The speaker then went over the oft-re-
peated d mocratic explanation of the
issue of bonds and the manner in which
they should be paid and depouncei the
money plank of the Republican party.
He then made an attack on the railroad
for taking cases brought against 1t
into the United States courts, and de-
claled that Bryan as President would en-
force the law requiring the State courts to
pass on actions brought against corpora
tions, and he would prevent bondholders
from debating in what kind of coin their
bonds shall be paid.
DR.. Max Magnus was the next speaker,
but before he got fairly started the audi
ence commenced to thin out.
After eulogiZing Governor Altgeld in
the English language he delivered an ad-
dress in German, during the course of
which he said that it is the duty of all
Germans who have come to this country
to make 1t their home, 10 defend it and to
hurl back the fends that would crush
them TO the wall. Then some one not I'M
pressed with a speech that he did not
understand called for Judge Mcguire.
The speaker switched off into English,
and declared that if he could not obtain
gold he was willing to take silver.
Congressman James g. Mcguire was
then introduced, and he, too, was cheered.
He declared that the Democratic party is
either right or wrong, and should be sup
ported or defeated, as it deserves. The
National issue, he said. is the remonetiza-
tion of silver, and anotherissue of interest
to California is the refunding of the rail-
road debt.
The speaker declared that there is need ed
second Andrew Jackson 10 force the
monopolisis to go, and that this second
Jackson will be William J. Bryan.

MEMORIALS TO CONGRESS.
Important Action at the Regular
Quarterly Meeting of the Cham
ber of Commerce.

The reguIar quarterly meeting of the
Chamber of Commerce of San Francisco
was held Yesterday, Hugh Craig presiding.
Two memorials to Congress were drafted.
The first wss a plea for aid for American
shipbuiding. 1t was shown that England
appropriates SIS, 100000 and France ST.
100000 in sub bsidIes for the carriage OF
mail each year, while the contribution
from this Government is almost nil, as
compared with these figures. Attention
was called to the fact that England re-
Gently esta blished a mail service and line
of steamers between Vancouver, Hong
kong and Yokohama. Now there is a
proposition on foot to run line be-
tween Vancouver and the Fiji Islands,
touching at Honolulu. 1t is represented
in the memorial that American steamers
are not subsidized enough.
The second memorial was on behalf of
Senator Elkins' bill for the protection of
American shipping in foreign trade. 1t
asks for return TO the old system upon
which American trade was built up and
specifies that no appropriation is counted
upon.
A communication was sent to Secretary
Herbert of the navy asking for assistance
in establishing signal station on the
summit OF mount 1dmalpdlS. AIOlcSSOT
Davidson. who was present, explained
that the location was particularly adapted
for observations, as view OF the outside
ocean could be seen from there, while
people on the lower strata were in the
fog.
A Communication was sent to the United
States naval authorities that the fog siren
at Point Wilson was not working at the
time of the wrecking the steamer Una
tilla. The cause, as understood by the
chamb Der, was that there was not enough
fresh water to operate the machine.
An application was made for some stand
ard work on the magnetic needle.
Julian Sonntag met the members and told
them of the quantities OF convict goods
dumped into the State from Indiana, Min
nesota, Pennsylvania, Illinois and New
York. He showed how it VAS hardship
on the people and the laborers of this
State, especially as convict labor here can
only produce iute bags.
Mr.. Sonntag strenuously advocated the
advisability of looking into this one par
ticular line of harm which is being done
the people of this State.
