New Orleans, Jan. 23.-Russias domestic troubles unfavorably affected all markets today, the uprising in St. Petersburg over shadowing all other features including the National Cotton Convention, which will be- xin tomorrow. Great things were expected to come of this assemblage, but the unfa- vorable developments in the European po- convention to be lost for the time being.

MUSICAL TRIBUTE
To SAN FRANCISCO
This City to Become One
of the Art Centers of the
World, Says Tetrazzini

Never was San Francisco more highly
complimented. in a musical way, than
by the great Tetrazzini after her recep-
tion at the Palace Hotel two evenings
ago.
The name of San Francisco as musi-
cal city is growing rapidly and Tetraz-
zini has become a warm admirer of Cali
fornia and CalifornianS
These are the words of the famous So
prano:
1T was certainly a beautiful reception
which was rendered me last evening at
the Palace Hotel and it will ever remain
a bright spot in my artistic career
1T has been a very great surprise and
pleasure to find so many enthusiastic
patrons of art in San Francisco, and to
be entertained by so generous host as
Colonel Kirkpatrick.
And never will ] forget the beautiful
tone of the Kohler & Chase Grand piano
upon which my accompanimentS were
played it was an inspiration
II shall take away with me the most
pleasant memories of these wonderful
instruments and the generous hospitality
and warm sympathy of the Californians
themselves.
Il think San Francisco will surely be-
come one of the great art centers of the
world"

Probably the most important musi-
cal artist that Manager Greenbaum
has yet presented to us is Eugen d'Al-
bert, the greatest living interpreter of
the music of Ludwig Won Beethoven,
who is now making his farewell tour
of America and who is announced to
give series of three concerts at the
Alhambra Theater on the nights of
Tuesday and Thursday, March IA and
16, and the matinee of Saturday.
March Is. The season ticket sale will
begin at Sherman, Clay & Co.'S to-
morrow morning.
AS a composer D'Albert ranks
among the greatest of living musical
writers. The overtures to his operas
are frequently played by the Boston
Symphony, the Chicago Orchestra and
others equally important.
AS a pianist D'Albert stands pre-
eminent as an interpreter of the most
noble and classical forms of music.
While no example of piano compost
tion is beyond the mastery of Eugen
d'Albert, it is by his readings of Bach.
Beethoven and Brahms that he has
established his fame. His interpreta
tions of his teacher, Lizst. are also
among his achievements.

religious revivals in Denver, Atlanta,
Los Angeles and other cities.
At Calvary Presbyterian Church the
afternoon was devoted to addresses by
the evangelists. The keynote was the
readiness of San Francisco to welcome
revival which shall equal those
which have won souls in other parts
of the land.
In the evening the conference met
again at the First Congregational
Church. The fine edifice was filed
Every one was called upon by DR..
Robert F. Coyle to prepare for the re-
vival here IN the autumn. At this
point the vast congregation sang
hymns under direction of the Rev.

though the very rafters would move
with the impassioned and triumphant
singing of the great hymn Coward.

WOMAN BURGLAR
GETS FREEDOM
Mrs. Grace Squires Allowed
to Go on Probation for
Four Years by Judge Cook
THINKS ACT Is INVALID
Requests District Attorney
to Take an Appeal to SUI
preme Court to Test Point

Mrs. Grace Squires, the woman burg
lar, was allowed to go on probation by
Judge Cook yesterday. AS the Judge
is not satisfied as to the validity of the
act passed by the Legislature he asked
the District Attorney to take an ap-
peal TO the Supreme Court to test the
point.
The defendant was convicted on one
charge of burglary for entering the
room of Mrs. Verlie Campbell at 1853
Turk street. and pleaded guilty to an
other charge of entering the residence
OF Peter Hoy, jeweler, on Laguna
street. On the first charge the Judge
suspended sentence for four years and
appointed Miss Sarah Fry as proba
tionary officer, He made 1t a condi
ton that the defendant return to her
home near Downieville and remain
there with her husband and daughter.
II the act Is valid" said the Judge,
this is a case calling for the exercise
of the right to allow the defendant to
go on probation. | am not satisfied,
however, of the validity of the act, and
as the District Attorney could not take
an appeal to the Supreme Court to
have the question determined unless
judgment is passed / will pass sem
tence on her on the charge to which
she pleaded guilty"
The Judge ordered the defendant to
be confined in San Quentin for period
of six months. He then made an order
suspending sentence for four years as
in the other case, and asked the Dis
trict Attorney to take an appeal to the
Supreme Court, which will be done as
speedily as possible. After the papers
We're signed the defendant left the
courtroom with Miss Fry and her at
torney, Walter Gallagher.

ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CUTICURA

Writing under date of Sept. ?, 1904,
Mrs. Matte Shaffer, of Cumberland,
Miss, says: Some time ago 1 or
dered and received your wonderful
Cuticura Remedies, which 1 used on
my little afflicted babe with wonder
full results. I had tried many other
remedies without any benefit what
ever, and Cuticura came to the rescue
when my doctors and all other rem
edics had failed. One doctor pro-
nounced'it scrofuia, the other eczema.
The little one was one solid sore, with
scales and scsbs from head to foot,
when I started using Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. The result was won
derful, and now my baby's face and
body are smooth and clear"

SCHMITZ FAILS
TO GUST BAEHR
Auditor Does Not Comply
With Demand That Grand
Jury Expenses Be Repaid
MAYOR PROCRASTINATES
Leaves Office After Repeat
inc His Previous Threat
to Suspend City Official

M.avor Schnitz sent word yester-
day morning to Auditor Baehr notify
ing that official that if the money
paid for brand Jury expenses was not
repaid By 1:3O o'clock in the afternoon
he would make out his order suspend
ing Baehr from office.
Baehr was not in his Office when
the message was delivered. and when
he arrived the Mayor had left the City
Hall Baehr waited all afternoon
for the Mayor to come back and make
his next move, and did not leave his
Office until p. M. up TO which time
SchmitZ had not put in an appearance.
Meanwhile Baehr. did not make
good the demands he audited Tor
Grand Jury expenses, nor does he in
tend to do so. II is said that the
Mayor is relenting in view OF the
fact that Baehr has paid the demands
Of certain non-ciVil service employees

ments of the Health Board and will
not press Baehr's suspension very
hard. He will in all likelihood sus-
pend Baehr, bat the suspension viii be
of 10 effect, as il is not likely that the
Board of Supervisors VIII ratify the
order. as the Mayor admitted in his
first letter TO Baehr The charter re-
ouires an Affirmative vote of not less
than fourteen Supervisors to make the
Mayors suspension Of a public officer
equivalent to a removal. 1t is doubt
ful il more than three Supervisors will
stand by the Mayor for political rea-
sons on so grave a matter as the re-
moval Of a city official. Therefore
the Mayors action; not being approved,
the suspended officer would be imn1e-
diately reinstated.

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS
At the First Sign of Disfiguring
Humors Is TO Use Cuticura.

Every child born into the world

most tender solicitude, not only be-
cause of its suffering, but because of
the dreadful fear that the dishguration
is to be lifelong and mar its future
happiness and prosperity. Hence it
becomes the duty of mothers of such
afflicted children to acquaint them
selves with the best, the purest, and
most effective treatment available,
viz: the CEticura Treatment, consist
ing of warm baths with Cuticura Soap,
and gentle anointings with Cuticura

owing to circumstances which you are
unable to CONTROL
A. L. Nesbitt, who was drunk last
Monday when he appeared in Depart
ment No. l as complaining witness,
was both sober and sorry when he
entered the same tribunal yesterday
morning, for he had spent the preced-
ing twenty-four hours in custody and
was charged with contempt. He had
accused w. II. Wheeler of robbing him
of $50 in Fifth-street saloon, but
withdrew the charge and said he did
not know who stole his money.
Il have been a soldier in the Philip
pines" he explained, and like every
other white man who has lived there
am unable to moderately drink and
retain my senses. If this man says
he didn't take my $40, I can't prove
that he did, because 1 don't remember
a thing about losing it,
So the charge against Mr.. Wheeler
was dismissed and the contempt
charge against Mr.. Nesbitt will be
heard to-day.
Suspecting that Chris Karsten, gro
GER at Sutter and Leavenworth streets,

ages to inmates of the fashionable
apartment houses with which the

tell the grocer that he had been sent
to purchase a flask of whisky by a lady
residing at the Empire Hotel, and to

fciently oDulent to consider quality
rather than cost. The instruction was
faithfully and shrewdly obeyed, the
boy paying his money and receiving in
exchange a bottle of "skee' that would
convey complete comfort to a conno;s-
seur. Then the arrest was made.
