STARTERS PLANS
 ARE CRITICIZED
THEY CAUSE A FIGHT BETWEEN
 SHOE FACTORY MEN.
Judge Mogan Gets Them to Shake Hands and Leave tue General
 to Manage the Campaign.

General Shafter's handling of the troops in front of Santiago provoked fight be- tween two employees in a shoe factory at IF Hayes street Tuesday morning which was rehearsed for the edification of Judge Mogan yesterday morning.
 George Tooley Is the acknowledged ora tor among the factory employees, and his opinions are usually listened to with re- spect Tuesday morning at the break fast hour the men were congregated in front of the factory and Tooley was de- nouncing General Shafter for his manage ment of the campaign.
 You're traitor" said Eli Matthews 'and if you dared to say what you have just said on the public streets you would be whipped by patriotic citizens"
 Tooley could not stand being called a traitor and he lifted Matthews off his feet by a blow on the chin. Matthews fell against box and his left ear was almost severed He was taken to the Receiving Hospital, where he said he had fallen on a box, but as soon as his wounded eaI was dressed he swore out warrant fol Tooley's arrest on a charge of battery.
 The Judge, after hearing both sides advised them to shake hands and leave the campaign to the general. They de murred at first, but finally shook hands and the Judge dismissed the case.

CHANGE THE AWARDS
 MADE AT DOG SHOW
Mostiffs, Cocker Sponiels and Others Were Entered. AL
 thouqh Not Eligible.

The entries to the Pacific Coast Field Trials closed on the 1st inst. with total of twenty-nine nominations, made up Of twenty-five English settlers and four pointers Last year brought out an entry of only twenty-three, with sixteen point CTS, six English settlers and one Irish setter It is noteworthy that Valiente sires fourteen of this years candidates, and Dash Antonio four, leaving only seven to be placed to the credit of other stud dogs.
 H. H. Carlton, secretary of the San Francisco Kennel Club, has received the following official notification from A. P. Vredenbereg, secretary of the American Kennel Club
 T would advise you that I have can celed the following winnings, as the en- tries were not eligible to the classes In which they competed: Class 6, No. Il, mans Lola, No. 37,547, said bitch having to her credit four first winnings prior to the closing of your entries, viz: First open, Stockton; first open, Oakland, 1896; first limit; first winners, San Jose, 1893. Class 109, No. 339, cocker spaniels, limit bitches, H. A. Wegener's Tootsy w, No. 45541. said bitch having to her credit four first winnings prior to the closing o1 your entries, viz: First open, San Fran cisco, 1884, first junior, Sacramento: first limit; first winners, San Jose, 1898. The rule says. LlIilll CldSS SIldll Dt for all dogs never having won four first prizes at any recognized show, wins in the puppy and novice classes excepted. There are two similar cases to the above one class 50, No. 193, E. V. Sullivan s pointer Ashbury formerly Hummer W) but as these did not score wins, the en- tries may stand. An examination of the catalogue of your late show has proven that it is most remarkably free from CT rors and you are to be congratulated. ' The executive committee of the San Francisco Kennel Club will meet on the 18th inst. to consider the charges brough, by MT. sammi. in connection, with the erroneous transfer of his bull terrier Scaldy Mike. MT. Sammi proposes to make it interesting for those who slight ed his dog. The principal offender, Dave" Sinclair, has no fear of retribu- tive punishment. Dave" is standing guard at Camp Barrett, awaiting transfer to the Philippines. He is keeping a care full lookout for Sammi. It might be well to mention that "Dave's' weapon is a Krag -Jorgensen, and he carries 1t loaded and with fixed bayonet.
 The celebrated St. Bernard. Champion Alton II. died last week. He was the sire of more champions than any other dog of his breed in the country.

RECIPROCITY WITH PERU.
It Is Favored Along certain Lines by
 Local Producers.

A letter was received by the Chamber of Commerce on Thursday from Senator Perkins inclosing a communication from Hon. John A. Kasson relative to recip- rocitv with Peru in certain lines Of goods and products of the United States This was referred to President Sbarboro of the Manufacturers and Producers Associa- tion, who yesterday sent the annexed re- ply:
 Honorable George c. Perkins. United States Senate Washington D. C.-Dear Sir: Yours with inciosed communication from John A. tiary' in relation to the reduction of 20 per cent on sugar, wines and brandies from Peru is received, and has been referred to parties ln- terested in those industries in California The opinion of all parties is strongly against grant against the interests of the products of Calfor- mia without receiving any commensurate pene-

 I understand that some similar treaty is be- ing negotiated with Germany and Italy. 1T so, 1t is to be hoped that the tariff on our wines and brandies will be so reduced as to make 1t possible to supply those countries also with our own wines and brandies As brandy can be produced in Peru from molasses at nominal Cost if would come in competition with our pure grape brandies of California to the great the facility with which Peru could make so- phisticated wines from its cheap brandies, you will readily see the dangerous grounds upon which we are treading.

 The attorney made motion for a new trial, alleging that the court had erred in refusing an attachment for the State Controller on the ground that the officer was more than thirty miles from San Francisco.
