CLOvERDALE, July 15-To-da
marks a new era in the wine industry
of Northern Sonoma. The meeting of
winegrowers in response to the request
Of H. J. Crocker was attended by over
$50 vineyardists and winemakers from
Dry Creek, Geyserville, Cloverdale and
Healdsburg. The large citrus Fair Pa
vilion was we'll filled with growers,
winemakers and visitors and enthusi-
asm ran high. The meeting was organ
lied with E. G. Furber, president, and
George B. Baer, secretary. On opening
the meeting Mr.. Furber said:
I'VE meet to-day to face new condi-
tions, which cannot but alleviate the
hardships and poor prices of former
years Cloverdale, with her tremen-
dous wine resources, will undoubtedly
receive benefits which Will be lasting.
Property will enhance in value and
farmers will regain the solid footing of
former years; Ihe man responsible Tor
the new conditions and brighter future
is H J. Crocker, and we are met to-
gether to encourage the cause.
p c. Rossi, president of the Italian
Swiss Colony, followed and said: Mr.
Crocker intends to establish a good
fair value Probably in one year prices
will go up but past experience shows
that without organization and solid
control prices will go back to figure
without profit to growers, manufac-
turers and retailers. Perhaps the price
is small, but 1t is nevertheless a good
fair price"
A Sbarboro the secretary of the
Italian-Sw colony, said: Il heartily
favor the proposition. 1t will give value
to vineyard properties. The price is
third higher than In the past ten years.
/ believe the same ratio will continue
the next ten years If the proposition is
not accepted. 1 believe Mr.. Crocker's
object is principally philanthropic and
hope he will succeed. Farmers should
not be spectators. If Mr.. Crocker con-
trolls the grape crop of California he
will distribute it among existing wine
cellars, thus working no harm to any
industry established
f. Albertson said that this most lib
eral offer will enhance the value OF
vineyards from 30 to 40 per cent, pro-
viding Mr.. Crocker can control the en-
tire crop and wine output
James Mile of Healdsburg declared
"that the proposition guaranteed the
success Of the industry, as old condi-
tions will return unless there is unity
of action"
w. G. Witter Of San Francisco, who
owns large vineyards, said: THE
growers here should be satisfied. Few
sections can grow good wine grapes.

Witnesses Testify in the
Corcoran Trial.
DEADLY WORK AT WARDNER
POOR MARKsMANSHIP SAVED
SOME INTENDED VICTIMS.
But the Prosecution Has Not Yet
Succeeded in Identifying the
Defendant as One of the
Murderous Rioters.

WALLACE, Idaho July 15.-That the
rioters who DESTROYED the Bunker Hill
mill and murdered two men did not kill
more according to the evidence to-day
was due solely to their poor marksman-
ship. The desire to take human life was
present; victims were there in plenty and
the escape Of all but two is little short Of
miraculous.
The testimony presented by the State
to-day was directed toward proving the
killing of Cheyne, with whose murder Paul
Corcoran stands charged. Five witnesses

There was evidently mistake made as
to Cheyne's identity, for he was thought

to the Thousands Of

Special Dispatch to The Call.

7 OS ANGELES, July 15.-The de-
parture OF the teachers and others
who came to Los Angeles to at
Ltend the National Educational AS
sociation convention has begun in
earnest and over 1000 of the visitors
will have left Los Angeles by Monday
morning. The Southern Pacific took
out sixteen sleepers at noon, while to-
night fourteen additional cars went
north. All accommodations on the Owl
are taken to July 18. The Southern Pa
ciic trains tomorrow will all be
crowded. The Iowans closed their
headquarters last night, as did also the
Arkansas delegation. The California
headquarters were closed this evening.
The Charleston, S. c., delegation and
the book concerns have folded their
tents and gone.
Notwithstanding these departures the
arrivals from the East continue large.
The teachers that are still here have
begun their summer jaunts to the sur
rounding points. The Santa Fe had
big excursion to San Diego and another
around the kite-shaped track. One ex-
ira sleeper went East on the Santa Fe.
Most of the visitors now here will re-
main in and about Los Angeles for at
least another week.
The Houghton party Of teachers left
at noon to-day for San Francisco. and
the northern metropolis may expect an
influx OF visitors for several weeks.
OF the Eastern States Illinois has had
the largest delegation at the conven-
ton, as over 800 members registered
from that State At this meeting the
largest State attendance naturally was
that of California. The largest city
delegation came from San Francisco.
1t numbered about 265.
The two concerts that tonight were
given in Hazards Pavilion and in
Simpson Tabernacle have been eagerly
awaited The programmes were so
varied and so choice that lovers of
music found that Los Angeles pos
sessed much capable musical material.
The chorus of 500 voices at the pavilion
marked a new epoch in musical circles,
while the 100 women's voices at SiTnp-
son Tabernacle revealed a broad musi
cal cultivation. AS these concerts were

Redding Votes Against Bonds.

bond the city for coo for the purchase

markable One hundred and foTty-four
votes were cast. forty-six in favor. and
uinety-eight against. Reddtng needs a
people generally are in favor of building.
The conditions Of the present bond pro
posal however. We're not favorable. Out
of $40, 900 raised by the bonds it was pro-
posed to pay off $4,000 of old school bonds,
and the people believed the $4,000 remain
