HUBBARD AGAIN
FOR HUN INC TON
No Changes Anticipated in
Southern Pacific
Officers.
Views Expressed by the Repre-
sentative of the Searles
Estate.
Well Satisfied With the MANAGEMENT
of the Great Railroad Cor.
poration.

According to the views of General
Thomas II. Hubbard, there will be no
unusual development at the annual meet
ing of the stockholders of the Southern
Pacific Company, which is to be held to-
morrow. General Hubbard, who arrived
from the East on Sunday night, is the
representative of the Searles estate and Is
second vice. president of the company.
He was accompanied by William MahL
controller of the Southern Pacific Com
pany.
Great interest centers in General Hub
bard, owing to the fact that year ago he
was strongly urged by Mrs. Stanford to
stand as a candidate for the presidency of
the great railroad corporation In opposi-
tion to Coils P. Huntington. He de-
clined to do so, but despite his attitude in
the matter, Mrs. Stanford instructed her
two representatives in the directory OF the
company TO cast their votes for the Gen.
eraI. 1t is believed that Messrs. Wilson
and Lathrop will follow the same course
at the coming election.
General Hubbard appeared in the rail-
road building, at the corner of Market
and Montgomery streets. at IL o. clock
this morning and spent the greater part
OF the day in conference with G.. 7. Hunt
ipgton, Colonel Charles F. C-ocker and
other prominent officials of the company.
He Will also devote most of to-day to IA
mliarizing himself with the affairs O. the
company, so lar as they relate to ihis part
of the country, and in renewing his ac-
qusintanceship with the local officials.
The main object of the gentleman 5
visit is to be present ct the elections of
directors and officers oil the company,
which are to be held on Wednesday and
Thursday respectively, and to taKe part
in the discussions relative to the fut ture
policy OF the Southern Pacific Company.
Though General Hubbard resides in the
East he is we'll informed on Southern Pa
citic Railroad matters on The coast. In
the course of an interview yesterday he
stated that work on the fifty -fiye-mile gap
on the coast division, between Surf and
Elwood, would be pushed as soon as there
were sufficient funds available for the pur-
pose. The last twenty-five miles, he
stated, were particularly expensive. while
business was dull and rates low. This is
one of the matters that will be discussed
at the me etings of the railroad people TO
be held this week.
Concerning the election of officers, he
declared that he did not believe there
would be eny changes, and that no great
divergence would be made in the policy
of the company in any respect.
He was asked If he would cast his vote
for c. 2. Huntington as president, but
would not make any direct avowal OF his
Intention. He simply remarked that he
did not see any necessity for a change
and did not think there would be anv.
This leaves the clear inference that C. P.
Huntington will continue as the presiden.
of the Southern Pacific Company for the
next term.

TO PROTECT CHILDREN.
A New Society Organizes, Selects
Name and Elects Officers.

A New Society Organizes, Selects Q
Name and Elects Officers.
The Eureka Society for the Protection
of Children is the name of the new or
ganization formed for the prevention OF
cruelty to the little ones and for the care
and protection of the helpless.
Tne new body is to some extent an of
shoot of the old one, and was brought
into existence by the fact hat the presi-
dent of the California society refused TO
investigate charges made against Secre-
tary Welch.
The members comprising the new or
gan cation met Yesterday in the Donohoe
building, and, after adopting name and
a constitution and bylaws, elected the
following trustees: Mrs. Kate Petite. ].
w. Walton, A. c. Bauer, A. r. Frederick,
Henry W. Thorp, NJ. Stein, Mrs. L. A.
Roberts, E. Wadham. Mrs. ]. w. Reay.
Mrs. w. J. Gurnett and R. A. Tuttle.
Immediately after the board selected
and appointed The following officers
President, Mrs. Kate Petite: vice-presi-
dent, r. II. Tuttle; treasurer, ]. w. Wal
ton; secretary, +. A. Holbrook. 1t was an
nounced that in addition to work of look
ing after cases or cruelty the society will
build home of its own, where homeless
little ones will be sheltered, instead Of, as
in the past, being dependent upon orphan
asylums and other charitable institutions.
1t is expected that the new society will
occupy the rooms of the old body in con-
junction with the Society for the Proven.
tion of Cruelty 10 Animals.

REV. Mr.. CRUzAA RESIGNS
He Will Now Devote All
His Energies to "The
Pacific"

Olivet Congregational Church has lost
a 1irst-class pastor and the Pacific the
organ OF Congregationalism has gained q
first-class managing editor, business man.
ager and all-around man of affairs, all in
the same person.
For several years past the Pacific had
been conducted by Rev. John Kimball
and Deacon S. S. Smith. Mr.. Kmball
being the managing editor and Deacon
Smith the business manager. But old
ace and i'll health overlook them, Deacon
Smith almost having lost his eyesight
and Rev. Mr.. Kimball becoming so inirm
that he could not do the work.
In this contingency Rev. John A. Cru
zan, pastor of Oiivet Church, was asked
to taks charge of the paper. he having
been an old-ume printer and familiar with
newspaper work. He accepted, and no.
tified his congregation on January l OF
this year that as ne would do the work oil
three men on the Pacific, it would not be
possible Tor him to perform the duties of
his pastorate, and that he would tender
his resignation as soon as a successor could
be obtained
Sinca that date. Rev. Mr.. CruZan has
filled the pulpit OF Olivet Church, but has
not performed any OF his pastoral duties.
Rev. ID. ID. Shepard, young preacher OF
great promise, was asked TO become the
pastor of Olivet Church, and he accepted
the trust week ago, whereupon Rev. Mr..
Cruzan resigned.
Rev. Mr.. Shepard is single man, Just
entering into the prime of life. He was q
classmate of DR.. RAIDER in the Andover
Theological Seminary, and recently held
the pastorate OF the Congregational
church at Elk Point, near Sioux Falls, S.
d. His preaching is ex em poraneous,
and is said to be all the more effective on
that account.

BAD MONEY.

Frank Karvine Acquitted of the Charge
of Passing Counterfeits.
United States Commissioner Heacocb
yesterday dismissed the case of the United
States against Frank Karvine on the
charge of having passed counterfeit
dollar.
Karvine is cashier for the Chicago Club
bookmakIng concern at the races and be
passed the counterfeit coin on George S.
Loryea in payment of a winning poo
ticket. The testimony showed that Kar-
vine was in the employ of Abe Levy; tina,
the money received for pool tickets was
taken in by Levy, placed on tray and
passed over to Karyin to pay the winners
The similar charge against George Lew.
ison, cashier for Harlan & Co., will be
heard this morning. The complainant i.
g. Leopold.
The United States officers have recently
heard much complaint concerning the Mt
tering OF bad coin dollars and SIS gold
pieces at the racetrack. There have beer
more complaints of counterfeit money
there than anywhere else. The bad dollar
is dangerous counterfeit, having all tn,
appearance and the ring of the genuine
but it is little lighter in weight.

BUSHES SMEN
KNEEL IN PRAYER
Noon Lenten Services Held
in the Chamber of
Commerce.
Bankers and Brokers Give Half
an Hour 10 Midday
Worship.
Rev. Percy c. Webber of Boston De.
livers the Discourse, Bishop
Nichols the Benediction.

The Chamber of Commerce saw another
sight than that to which it has long been
accustomed. At noon yesterday the deep
tones of an organ shook out into long,
soothing, melodious waves the sharp vi
brations of Change. Banker ard broker.
lawyer and merchant, professional and
business man knelt together in the big,
gloomy room that since its dedication
years ago has echoed daily and to nothing
other than the quick tread of the money
changer.
A minister of the gospel was conducting
divine service and a gathering of men
such as never came together in San Fran
cisco for the purpose was joining in the
prayer and.responses.
The meeting was the first of series of
ten, to be held for as many succeeding
days, inaugurating the Lenten season. A
large organ had been placed in the room
to the lett of the rostrum, the floor had
been covered with white crash and hand
bills had been circulated through the
marts and avenues of trade. calling upon
business men 10 assemble there for half

COEDE MNS ELDER JACKS,
DR.. Scott Speaks to Pastors
on the Ethics of
Property.
Rev. G. A. Schultz Addresses the
Baptists-German Ministers
Meet.

Rev. DR.. Scott seized the occasion of a
discussion on 1.-THE Ethics of Property"
at the Presby terian Ministerial Union
yesterday, to denounce the mercenary
conduct of ''the wealthy Presbyterian
elder of San Jose who few days ago put
an aged couple out on the sidewalk be-
cause they were in arrears with their
rent"
DR.. Scott's scathing allusion to the
misuse of wealth was the climax to a
discussion in which DR.. Scott had con-
tend ed that property that has been
gathered together by the impoverishment I
of some one else is robbery" He con-
tended that the element of brotherhood
should prevail everywhere, and that the
rich man who overlooks the obligations
OF brotherhood is abusing sacred trust
Rev. DR.. Bevier said he thought the
ethics of property question that belongs
to the church; men should be taught to
look upon wealth as sacred trust to be
used for the loftiest ends. Dr.. Arthur
Thompson thought the socialistic and an
archistic platforms could do nothing; the
spirit of Christ could alone teach men the
true ethics of property.
Several other questions were considered
by the Presbyterian Union yesterday.
Rev. DR.. Ketchum, while speaking ar
IDENTITY in favor of Presoyterianism, re-
fected somewhat on the presbytery as an
executive. Rev. ]. B. Warren decried the
practice of admitting uneducated men
from other denominations into the Pres
byterian ministry.
The following officers of the Presbyterian
Ministerial Union were elected President.
Rev. DR.. Ketchum; vice-president, Rev. H.
w. Beyier; secretary and treasurer, Rev.
James n. Woodwork.
at the Baptist Ministerial Union Rev.
G. A. Schultz of New York, secretary of
the American Baptist Home Missionary
Society for the Germans, delivered brief
address. showing the wonderful growth OF
the German Baptist church in the United
States.
Rev. Dr. Taft of Alameda read q paper
on 1.-THE Day of the Crucifxion." 1t was
reply 10 one read few weeks ago by
Rev. w. T. Binny.
At the German ministers mon thly
meeting paper was read by Rev. /. G.
Shultz of Lorin.
Rev. DR.. James NJ. Grey, the "lawyer
preacher read the paper before the Chris
istian ministers yesterday. His subject
was Life in Christ"
At the meeting of the Methodist Min
inters' Association Rev. g. Mines read a
paper on "Tbe Forces Which Shall Tell on
the Restored Kingdom of God"
1t was announced tnat DR.. Berry would
address the next Monday meeting. A
motion was made to invite all the min
listers of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South to hear him. DR.. Steele, editor OF
the Young Peoples Paper of the M. E.
Church South, is expected here the last
week in this month. 1t is likely that he
will address the cub during his visit here.

business principles; would begin prompt
ly. and be dismissed as promptly upon
the expiration OF the half-hour allotted to
them.
The hall was reasonably we'll filled, all
the Episcopal ministers of the City heing
present. seated at the side near the organ,
while Bishop Nichols occupied a seat IN
the front row with the audience. Hugh
Craig and Colin M. Mcintosh did service
as ushers.
Service books of the society were in
every seat. e. w. Biselow served as or
ganlst. and, after the brief introd uctory of
the leader, the hvmn was announced from
special leafiet printed tor the occasion,
the hymn beginning. "Jesus calls us from
the tum ult of our life's wild, restless sea-"
which goes on to say:
Jesus calls us from the worship
OF the vain worlds golden store;
From each idol that would keep u.s.
saying, "Christians, love me more"
And the audience joined heartily in the
singing.
Archdeacon Webber of Boston then be-
gan the short practical address which
characterized the meeting. II was an ap-
pea! TO those present, as captains of in
dustry, to make their business callings as
one with the service of God; that they
should carry that thought with them al
ways into trade, politics and profession;
that in conducting their own business
they should ever remember that they
were at The same time like the man of
Nazarath conducting my Fathers busi-
ness"
He urged upon them, in consonance
with this thought, consideration for 9TH
ers. when a poor man comes to your
desk asking for work do not turn to him
with sharp word of denial, excusing
yourself with the thought of the affairs
pressing upon you, but think of the hours
that the man may have waited outside
before he plucked up courage to enter.
The though,less word from you will be
ashes to his lips and add to his burden of
encouragement.
eThen, again, if you have a man in your
service who has some weakness, why
should you dismiss him summarily, or re-
fuse to try him again, and SO loose his
hold upon possible redemption and give
him over to destruction?"
He charged his hearers to broaden their
lives by being interested. BE interested
in human nature, interested in the pros.
perity of the City. The greatest power of
all is the power over human hearts. You
and know there is no such power with.
out that interest that deepens into Joy and
hope in life and without it,
Bishop Nichols delivered the benedic.
tion and the business men went back to
their labors. expressing great satisfaction
in the experience. The meeting will be
held to-day at the same hour.
