ST, FRANCIS BEGINS
ITS DAY OF JUBILEE
FATHER FILBERT DELIVERS A
STIRRING SERMON.
Fiftieth Birthday Of the Church to
Be Celebrated During the Rest
of the Week.

Father Filbert, one Of the most ad
vanced prelates of the church in this
city, Wednesday opened the week Of
jubilee which is to celebrate the fiftieth
anniversary of st. Francis Church with
one OF the most eloquent sermons ever
delivered from pulpit in this city.
Although his theme, the life Of the
patron saint of the church, was inspiring
enough in itself, the steadfast attention
of the crowd that filled the handsome edi-
flee at Vallejo street and Montgomery
avenue was even more SO, and for the
half hour he spoke there was not a mo-
ment in which his words lacked interest.
The decorations were rich and beautiful.
The chancel and altar were banked with
ferns and white flowers, and the gallery
and choir loft were draped with yellow
and white hangings.
The programme rendered by the choir
was one of exceptional merit, and some of
the most prominent artists of the city
participated. Among them were Pro-
fessors H. ]. Stewart, Harrison, Arillaga,
and H. S. Stedman, Messrs. Van Brunt
Benyl, Mrs. Eva Tenny, Miss Maud Fay
Miss Ella McClosky, Miss Katherine
Black Miss a. Devlin, Miss c. Devlin and
Mrs c. Parent.
The jubilee services will be continued
through the week beginning each night
at 1880 o'clock. Father Carol, who con-
Quoted the services last night, will con-
tinue to do so through the week, but
will be assisted by different prelates of
this city, who will speak each evening
upon some special topic.

GOVERNMENT BOATS
KEEP THE COURSE CLEAR

NEW YORK Oct. 5.-The efforts of
Captain Evans and Lieutenant Command
er Fremont TO keep the course clear with
Government cutters and torpedo boats
were again successful to-day. The same
system which proved 80 effective on Tues
day was in force to-day, and the results
were quite as satisfactory. The course,
when once signaled by the committee
boat. was Immediately cleared, and each
boat had a clear field down the line and
all the space necessary for maneuverins.
Directly after the start the two patrol
fleets formed into line, the cutters on the
left ana the torpedo boats on the right,
and everything WAS kept in place. There
was the same gOud-natured obedience to
all instructions and no captain. needed a
second warning. When signaled to move
out the entire fleet at once obeyed, and
no naval squadron could have made a
better maneuNer.
Captain Evans was obliged, however, to
fire a gun OF warning about o'clock on
the left OF the line, when a captain
showed signs of trespassing. This was
the only incident of the patrol service to-
DAY that was out of the ordinary run. 1t
is now a well established fact that this
for both racers, and no excursion boat,
yacht or tug ever pretends to put her nose
inside the established lines. The system
is an eye-opener to the visiting yachtsmen
from abroad and receives the highest
communication on all sides. The idea of
the national Government recognizing the
sport lends an additional Importance to
the race, and is a very pleasing feature
to all yachtsmen.

ANOTHER INJUSTICE IN
FREIGHT RATE. TARIFF
SOUTHERN PACIFIC INCREASES
THE TAX ON WINE.
The Price Raised From Sixty. to Sew
enty-fve Cents per Hundred
Pounds on Shipments
in Wood.

The increased Southern Pacific freight
rates on twenty-five articles, published in
The Call a few days ago, went into ef-
feet to-day, and there is another and
important article which is marked out for
increased taxation on the 10th OF this
month.
Shippers Of wine, one Of the principal
products of this State, are to be forced TO
pay an extra tribute in order to get their
goods TO Eastern markets. Formerly the
rate on wine in wood was so cents per 100
pounds, rate which was considered high,
but now that figure has been increased
to 10 cents, and on this charge there is
70 per cent addition for all wine shipped
in puncheons. This 20 per cent increase
on the puncheons is claimed as q differ
entail which has always been charged by
the company, and the raise IS said to be
merely based on the larger volume of
differential shall not be lost
The merchants say this is subterfuge;
that the Southern Pacific never before
charged any such differential: that form
erly wine in wood and wine in puncheons
went at the same figure, and that there
fore the 20 per cent is an increase that is
unwarranted by any precedent.
However this may be, the raise has gone
into effect. and the men doing business in
this State with Chicago and all other
Eastern distributing points must stand it,
whether they like it or not.

the vicinity of Cisco was cleared OF the

that both boats are good drifters, with the

Upton AND GUESTS
WERE VERY HOPEFUL

NEW YORK. Oct. 5.-Sir Thomas Lip
ton and his guests on board the steam
yacht Erin We're very hopeful when the
anchors were lifted and she left her an
chorage at Sandy Hook, the indications
a that time promising a fair wind. AS
the day wore on and it became certain
that it would again be a case of no race,
they resigned themselves to the inevitable
and formed little groups about the deck
and in the cabin, where they discussed
the respective merits of the yachts and
deplored the fact that there was no
chance for a fair test Of their sailing
qualities.
Richard Croker hung over the rail, ex-
changing views with first one and then the
other of the distinguished foreigners,
while Thomas A. Edison chatted with
others.
Sir Thomas announced that in his opin-
ion the days work proved nothing.

WILLIAMS SHIPPERS
ON THE SHAMROCK

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Captain Ben Par
ker and his brother William of Emperor
Williams fast yacht Meteor were on
board the Shamrock in both Tuesdays
and to-day's races. Dr. Macke, speaking
for Sir Thomas Upton, said the two men
were aboard the English boat simply be-
cause they are friends of Captains
Hogarth and Wringe.
''You may say" said DR.. Mackie this
evening, that Captain Parker is here
with Emperor Williams permission, but
please make it plain that he has nothing
whatever to do with the sailing and man
agement of the Shamrock. Captains Ho-
garth and Wringe are in supreme COM
mand and one of them has the tiller at all
times during the races. The report that
Captain Parker steered the Shamrock
during Tuesdays race is absurd. Either
Hogarth or Wringe steered throughout
the contest"

WOMAN MURDERED

MAYSVILLE. KY, Oct. 6.-Mrs. Mary
Lashbrook, the wife of a well-to-do
farmer and member of one of the old

ragged and murdered yesterday at her
home at Clarks Station, six miles from
here. While alone at home she went to

been in the neighborhood for several days
attacked her. After the outrage her as

woman's brains. Last night the officers
brought in Richard Coleman, a young
negro, who has confessed to having mur-
dered Mrs. LashbroOk They were able
to get him into the jail through mob of
500 people by telling the crowd they were
not sure of Coleman's guilt 1t Is doubt
full whether they will be able to save the
negro's life.
At o'clock this (Friday) morning the

to enter was thrown out by the guards

INVOICES FALSIFIED.

that there has been extensive falsifying

that there has been general undervalua-

Details of the matter are lacking, and
there are few people at this point who
would have any intimation of it until
developments are made. There are about
through to foreign countries, and mani
tests for all or any one would be filed at

manifests would be filed with the Cana

their valuations and where crookedness
would be discovered, If there were any.
