MEMBERS RESIGN
FROM COMMITTEE
Bundschu, Briggs and
Mills Decide to
Withdraw.
Notify Organizations They
Represent Of Their De-
termination.

Within the past few days three promi-
nent members of the California promotion
Committee have rendered their res1gna-
lions to the associations that appointed
them to serve on the committee. These
are w. H. Mills and Arthur r. Briggs,
who were appointed by the State Board
of Trade. and Charles Bundschu, who
represented the Merchants Association
in the promotion committee. Mr. Mills
said that the reason for his with
drawal was personal Mr.. Bundschu
admitted that friction had something to
do with his resignation, but that pressing
business of his own was more OF
factor.
The finance committee of the promotion
committee consisted of three members
Two of the members were Bundschu,
who was the chairman and Briggs. For
some time it has been noised about that
there has been a great deal of friction
in the promotion committee Recently
the situation within the offices became
somewhat acute. Rufus P. Jennings, the
executive officer, and Mr. Hess, the secre-
tary, had words.
The friction to which Mr.. Bundschu al
luded to in his case probably had to do
with a recent interview with Mr.. Jen-
nings. Mr.. Bundschu had communicated
with Mr.. Hess, who is the secretary OF
the committee. Mr.. Jennings considered
that Mr. Bundschu should have brought
the matter to him first as the executive
officer. Mr.. Bundschu resented any o1c-
tation. His resignation is in the hands OF
President Symmes of the Merchants As
ISOLATION. He has served seventeen
months gratuitously.
Quite recently the finance committee
sought the services of an expert to have
a report made concerning the expendi-
lures of the moneys that had been re-
ceived Mr.. Bundschu declares that no
irregularities were discovered. The cpl
sode occasioned interest on the part of
the members of the executive committee,
who have the general supervision of af-
fairs.
Some criticism has been made by mem
bers of the committee concerning the
use to which the money contributed
by merchants has been devoted. The
fixed monthly expense of maintaining the
headquarters on New Montgomery street
is stated to be about $500. The rent takes
up $3.50 OF this and postage and current
1890 is reported to be expended for
salaries, which amounts to about 500 per
month in round figures.
The committee printed the speeches of
President Roosevelt in California at
cost of about $1,000 1t has also issued
publications costing various sums. Some
of the books have been sold and some re-
main on hand. The sum of something
like $1,000 was expended for advertising
California in Eastern publications. Such
publication has been discontinued for
some months. Several thousand dollars
have been contributed by the committee
to organizations representing the interior
counties of the State to help them III
making their resources known to the
world.
No appointments have yet been made
by the State Board of Trade or the Mer-
chants Association to fill the vacancies
occasioned by the designations of. Messrs
Bundschu Briggs and Mills

Either an uncle" or cousin" would
testify that he had known the applicant
as a child in this country and had seen
him in recent years in China. Unless the
Federal courts could catch the witnesses
in false testimony the evidence had to be
accepted.
Many cases are on record where the
Chinese claiming to be native born
Americans have requested the courts TO
be remanded. II is believed that these
acts were only part of a plot TO secure
thea admission Of young Chinese and al
low the substitution of aged Mongolians
who desired to go back to China and do
so at the expense of others.
In the search for evidence against the

SUSPECT OTHER DEPUTIES.

Secret Service Agent Burns is looking
closely into the record and habits of
some of the deputy .sheriffs who served on
the night watch at the County Jail.
The accused deputy sheriffs, Burnett,
Dasha and Dempsey, acted as the night
watch for two weeks at a time and then
would do duty in the daytime.
Dempsey. one OF the accused deputy
sheriffs, has declared that others were the
real grafters'' and that when the time
comes he will talk. Dempsey is not doing
much talking since his release on bail and
his session before the United States
Grand Jury is thought to have resulted
in something more than a mere confes-
sion of his implication in the substitution
frauds.
Burnett and Dasha are keeping very
quiet ard will not talk about their case
1t is thought III certain circles that the
accused deputy sheriffs will assist the au-
thCrit'es III rounding VI every party to
the frauds aud 'EeIely secure immIa
from punishment.
For that reason the Federal officials are
10th to discuss the case, fearing that some
Of those suspected Of the frauds may
make their escape.

T THROUGHOUT the city the sacred
Jewish feast of Rosh Hoshana was
celebrated with solemn services
Ia yesterday. At all the synagogues
special services were held and
beautiful music, prepared especially for
the occasion, was rendered. Jewish peo-
pie in all walks of life observed the day
with prayer and the synagogues were
crowded with ardent worshipers.
The feast of the Rosh Hoshana is one
of the most important in the Jewish cal
endar and its advent is observed by the
Hebrews throughout the world. 1t marks
the beginning Of the year 1864 B. c., and

for ages has been held sacred by the
Jews
At the morning services of the Temple
Emanuel the pastor, Rabbi voorsanger,
occupied the pulpit. The theme of the
Rabbi was THE Story of a Psalm" He
spoke feelingly and eloquently. He held
his listeners for over an hour with his
eloquent discourse and made many allu-
sions to the work of the Jewish race for
centuries past
AT TEMPLE EMANUEL.
A feature of the services at the Temple
EMANUEL was the beautiful music rem
dered by the choir. Ferdinand Stark, the
well known conductor, had charge of the
music. Many new voices were added to
the regular choir and the music rendered
was as fine as has been heard in any
church throughout the city for a long
time
Rabbi Myers, the pastor of the Bush
street synagogue, occupied the pulpit at
the services yesterday morning. The
large edifice was crowded to the doors
by a vast army of worshipers who had
come from all parts of the city to at
tend the services.
Rabbi Myers text was 1.-The Grand
Army. His sermon was most instruc-
tive one and he spoke at length on the
feast that was at present being celebrated
and paid high tribute to the character
Of the Jewish race. The choir rendered
special music.
BOYS CHOIR SINGS.
At the services at the Bush street tenn
pie this morning Rabbi Myers will preach
on 1.-THE Shofar." There will also be some
fine music by the synagogue's choir
The services at the Geary street temple
were also of a very impressive character
AT the morning services the sermon was
preached by Rabbi Levy The large syn
agogue was crowded. AS in the other
places of worship the music was one of
the most noteworthy features.
Rabbi Nieto occupied the pulpit at the
Taylor street synagogue during the morn
ing services yesterday. His sermon was
an interesting one and was listened to
by a large assemblage.
Rabbi Israel preached at the new syn
agogue before a large congregation. A
pretty feature of the services was the
singing of the boys choir under the d.
rection Of Mr.. Samuelson. 1t rendered
many sweet sacred hymns.

HIGHER GAME SOUGHT.

The cunning of the Chinese is well
known, but the investigating officials 90
not think that the plot of substitution
was Matched simply by Chinese aided by
the three deputy she11ffs and the deputy
marshal who killed himself.
Higher game is being sought and no
steps will be left unturned to implicate
all the parties to the crime of fraud and
bring them to the bar of justice
A certain coterie of attorneys has
waxed rich by handling the cases Of the
Chinese who, denied landing, seek the
relief of the Federal courts.
Chinese interpreters can be seen con-
stantly visiting the offices of these attor-
neys, and it would not be surprising II
the Federal dragnet caught some OF the
attorneys who constantly figure as repre-
sentatives of Chinese clients.
Two Federal officials sJe known to have
maintained very friendly relations with
Tom Yung, the Chinese arrested in con-
nection with the substitution frauds. One
of the substituted Chil'ese confessed that
Tom Yung gave him $35 to serve as one
of the substitutes.

A POOR MAPLE SUGAR YEAR.
1t Is Due to the weather, Which Pre-
vents a Good Run of Sap.

OtlCd OOSciNci.
Lovers of genuine maple sugar will have
to get along with short rations this year
if they confine themselves to the kind that
is manufactured from maple sap. The
sugar and strip that is made in 'manufac-
tories can be had any time of year, for IT
is fixed up from cane sugar and Favored
with birch extracts. But the simon-pufe
article boiled down from the sap of the
maple and containing no other substances,
will be hard to get hold of.
In order to make sugar or this KIND one
must have the sap of maple trees, and this
will run only when the weather is just
right. There have been but two or three
good sugar days this year. The weather
has been too warm and muggy since the
breaking of winter. 1t requires crisp, cold,
frosty nights to be followed by warm, sun
ny days for sugar-making. We have not
had the frosts, for the nights have been
about warm the days and 1T has kept
thawing right along all the time.
Old sugar makers say that even If cold
weather should set in now, which is not at
all probable, ii will be too late to save the
sugar crop, for while Ii is often the case
that maple sugar is not made till April, it
is true that good runs" of sap never fol-
low long period of warm weather such as
March has given
OF course, with such a scarcity of sugar
and maple strip which are known to be
genuine there will be more of the adulter-
ated product than ever this year.

Text of LincOln's Reply to a Congress
sional Notification Committee.

leXt Oh Lincoln HepIy 10 a congress
sional Notification Committee.
Minneapolis Tribune.
The manuscript of President Lincoln's re-
ply to the Congress committee appointed
to inform him of his second election to the
presidency is now in the possession of the
State of Iowa. How 1T came there is thus
told by the Des Moines Register.
Abraham Lincoln was chosen to his sec
ond term as President of the United States
in November. 1864. After the official can
vass of the votes in February, 1865, COM
mittee of the two houses of Congress was
appointed to inform him of his election.
The committee consisted of Lyman Trum-
bull. of Illinois. on the part of the Senate,
and James f. Wilson. of Iowa, and John
F. Dawson, of Pennsylvania, on the part of
the House. Waiting upon him at the exec
utive mansion. the committee. by it's chair
man, notified him of his election to a second
term. Mr.. Lincoln, in anticipation of this
official visit. had his acceptance written by
his own hand and filling little more than
half page of old-fashioned letter paper
ready for the occasion. He read as follows:
Having served four years in the depths
of great and yet unended national peril,
/ can view this call to second term in no.
wise more fiattering to myself than as an
expression of the public judgment that
may better finish a difficult work, in which
/ have labored from the first than could
anyone less severely schooled in the task.
In this view. and with assured reliance on
that Almighty Ruler who has so graciously
sustained us thus far, and with increased
gratitude to the generous people for their
continued confidence. l accept the renewed
trust. with its yet onerous and perplexing
duties and responsibilities
When the official ceremony was over, Mr..
Wilson said: with your permission, Mr.
President, / would be glad to keep that
page of manuscript"
You are very welcome to it," replied Mr..
Lincoln, handing it TO Mr.. Wilson. This
paper which was Mr. Lincoln's formal and
official acceptance of his second term as
President of the United States. was retained
by Senator Wilson until his death.
1t has since remained in the possession of
his family. Just now they have turned it
over to Charles Aldrich. by whom Ii has
been placed in his great autograph collec-
ton In the historical department of Iowa
While 1t is not signed. it is yet a manuscript
of great value. We may add that the page
upon which ii was written also contains
several lines which are in the handwriting
of Mr.. Wilson, explanatory of the manu-
