There will be number of lively con-
tests for alderman at the Democratic
caucuses to be held next Monday night.
In the First ward there are so MANY
candidates that it would be hard mat
ter to pick the winner In the Third, the
fight seems to be between Jennings and
Pratt The former has served one term
In the city council and has good rec
ord. Over in the Ninth it is a three
cornered fight, between Richard Neis-
ingh, Peter Mccoy and Joseph Rebholz.
Mr.. Neisingh seems to he prime favor
lite owing to the fact that he has not
been identified with any political fac
ton in the past and his record is above
reproach. If nominated, he will without
doubt carry the ward and will make a
splendid alderman. Down in the Sixth
ward the friends of Alderman Lars NJ.
Rand are rallying to the standard of
their favorite leader in large numbers

1t is said that there was not single

before Santiago. This Is very serious
matter, whoever was accountable for it,
To say that twenty-five per cent of the

very low estimate, and those poor fell

We take pleasure in informing our es-
teemed contemporary that there was
one Catholic priest with the army in the
Cuban campaign. He is Rev. FIR. Pat

WlNEMAKERS In
ANNUAL SESSION
PRESIDENT HENRY J. CRoCKER
SUBMITS HIS REPORT.
He Makes a Strong Plea for Har-
mony Among Stockholders and
Continuance Of the
Corporation.

The annual session Of the stockholders
of the California Wine Makers CORPORA
ton was commenced yesterday in the
rooms of the Chamber OF Commerce. The
meeting is purely executive and outsiders
are excluded
There were two hundred stockholders
present and seven hundred and fifty
shares out Of a total Of eleven hundred
were represented. President Henry j.
Croker called the meeting to order and
submitted his annual report. In it he
spoke of the good results accomplished by
the corporation in seeking the markets of
the world. Before the new vintage is
out all debts will be paid, there will be a
cash deposit in bank to meet the payment
Of a judgment of 800 600 to the California
Wine Association, if it be affirmed and a
good balance on hand for distribution to
the members. Under the present man
agement the corporation has paid an an
value of the stock. Mr.. Crocker made q
plea for the continuance of the co-opera-
tive plan, the results of which warrant
such a course as long as the producers in
acting together protect their own inter-
ests and their financial supporters.
The report of Secretary Hotchkiss
stated that the suit with the California
Wine Association will be appealed The
outlook for the wine makers is promising
and the market will not be forced. 1t has
on hand 7,000,000 gallons Of good wine for
The members took part in a discussion
in which the management of the corpora
ton was criticized, and suggestions were
made for an Improvement in affairs. The
discussion, which was mainly in the line
OF inquiry, took up the greater part OF
the day.
The main question likely to arise at the
convention is the continuance of the or
ganiZatfon. Some dissatisfied members
are in favor of its discontinuance, and
should they assume control disruption
will follow. 1t is almost certain that the
policy of the corporation will experience
a radical change. Secretary and Manager
Hotchkiss is a stanch believer in Coop
Grafton among wine producers and is
working hard for harmony among the
stockholders The combination was
formed for five years, and will end with
this years vintage. He asserts emphat-
ically that disorganization is out Of the
question.
1.-The dissatisfaction existing among
some members, he said, lis on account
of results, and not causes. They have
not received for their 90 wine as
much as producers outside of the corpo-
ration, and so feel aggrieved. The cor
poration, in order TO maintain prices
held on to the SO wine and were
obliged to contend with the enormous
81 product. AS a consequence prices
went down. 1t may have been an
error of Judgment, but our operations
have been too fair for disruption to oc-
cur"
The session will be resumed and con-
Guided to-day.

THE SCHEME FELL THROUGH.
Butchers Board Of Trade VIII NOT
Admit Contra Costa County.

At the meeting of the Butchers Board
of Trade Tuesday night the proposition to
admit Contra Costa County was submitted
and Overwhelmingly defeated
Members of the organization assert that
the admission OF Contra Costa County
would mean that Butchertown, with It's
dear, delightful smells, would be thing
OF the past, as there is large plant lying
idle in Contra Costa County. There are
hundreds of men employed in Butcher
town who would be either thrown out OF
employment or forced to leave the city
had the resolution carried Another
bad feature of the proposed move
would be the introduction of refrigerated
meats instead of the fresh meat now fur
nished. There were over 600 butchers
present at the meeting and they were al
most unanimously opposed to the project.

Pupil Mcguire Gives the Alarm,

arson, and the lives of many pupils en-

1t was close to the time of dismissal
when Miss Bartlett, principal of the
school, told Mcguire to open one of the
windows to admit some fresh air The
lad complied, and, with an inquiSitiyeness
natural TO his age, stuck his head out 10

nificant act probably saved the school, for
he noticed smoke issuing from the cracks
between the boards under the lower floor
In the corner.
Now Mcguire did not cry out and alarm
his fellow pupils as an ordinary boy would
have done, but, realizing the gravity of
the situation, he went quietly to his
teacher and told her that the building was

policemen. But no sooner had he gone
when another boy saw the smoke and
small-sized panic, and the scholars began
to scamper In all directions. Some, with
excellent forethought, packed up their
