STEALING SILKS

OAKLAND, Dec. S.--Three San Fran
ciscans, woman and two men. were
arrested in the Chinese tazaar Of
Lung Sung, s57 Broadway, at 10
O'Clock tonight and are accused by the
proprietors of the place of being i'm
pIicated in an attempt at shoplifting.
One of the men, who gave the name
of James Bullock. cashier for the
Santa Fe Company. and his residence
as 1923 O'Farren street, San Francisco
was caught by Policeman Sill with a
bolt OF pink silk under his overcoat.
Bullock's companions were Harry.
Emmons, who says he is stenographer
in the employ Of Wells. Fargo & Co.
and that he lives at the same address
as that given by Bullock. and May
Daily, who gave her address az 1s45
Buchanan street. San Francisco. A
fourth man, said also to have been a
member of the party. escaped from the
store after q lively tussle with a Chi
nese clerk. who detected him In. the
act of taking bolt OF silk.
The party entered the bazaar late In
the evening and was apparently In a
jolly mood. The DAILY woman tried on
several silk kimones. and while she
was attracting the attention OF the
clerks one of the proprietors saw the
uncaptured member Of the party pick
up a piece OF valuable cloth. The
Chinese made grab for him and the
fellow dropped the silk and ran into
the street. During the excitement Bull

WASHINGTON Dec. s-witH the
President and vice President Of the
United States. the ambassadors from
italy. Great Britain. Russia and Japan,
the Speaker OF the House of Repre-
sentatives. Senator'S. Representatives
in Congress and many of the great
captains OF industry present. the TWEEN
ty-third annual dinner of the Gridiron
Club tonight at the New WIZARD Hotel
marked the high tide OF the clubs
achievements. Satire. burlesque and
straight comedy were the dominating
notes in the most successful dinner
this famous club of Washington cor
respondents has ever given. There were
sharp contrasts, the tribute to dead
members of the club abutting closely
upon burlesque Cuban revolution and
an exemplifcation of what happens in
the lawn tennis cabinet which meets
with the President every day, Sundays
excepted
In the Cuban burlesque. a member
of the club impersonated Governor
Magoon of Cuba. Sitting on a red-hot
stove, he held down the iid'' while the
Club selected cabinet for him COM
posed Of lame ducks" men who failed
of election in November. Club mem
bers in1personated William Randolph
Hearst. who was nominated for Cow
ernor OF the island: Mr.. Babcock, Mr..
Moody. Mr.. McCleary and General
Grosvenor. Moody was selected for the
place of trust buster or trust ma
tador," the Cuban revolutionists insist
ing that Moody was not trust ma
tador, but "picador,". the difference
being that matador kills while the
picador only leases.
Probably the strongest feature OF
the dinner was the gridiron simple
speiler" and dictionary" which was
issued in the form OF a booklet of some
forty pages containing quaint spelIings
and cuts illustrating the definitions.
The initiation of two new members
gave an opportunity for a quiet dig at
the President for his discharge of

The letter of Cardinal Merry del Val
to you OF November 2s is a rebuke to
you. expressing plainly his belief that
you have been unwarrantably ofieious
in matters with which you have prop
erly no concern. It should OF itself be
enough TO show you how exceedingly
unwise and improper your action in
writing to him was.
II am indignant that the wife of any
ambassador In the United States SER
vice should have written such let
ter, should have given the Impression
undoubtedly conveyed in that letter
and should have Incurred such a re-
buke.
you fon't Seem to realize that tits
out OF the question for me knowingly
to permit the wife OF one OF our diplo-
mats to engage in ecclesiastic In
trigues to influence the Vatican"
After referring to the report that
Mrs. Storer was known IN Europe as
the American Embassadoress to Rome.
Roosevelt closes thus:
Il must ask you TO give me this POSI-
tive promise in, writing (to refrain
from interference) IL BelIamy is to
continue in the service. and IL you
even unintentionally violate IL I shall
have TO ask for BelIamy's resignation,

chance of scandal being brought on the
entire American diplomatic service and
on the Government itself by such fndis-
Greet and nl-advised action as yours

The second feature of the investi-

Says Roosevelt Was Behind Effort
to Make Ireland Cardinal
ExecutiveNote
in Different
Strain

WASHINGTON, Dec. San extraor-
binary letter has been addressed by
Bellamy Storer to President Roosevelt
and the members of his Cabinet in re-
gard to his dismissal from the post OF
ambassador of the United States to
Austro- Hungary.
Storer was dismissed because of his
wife's supposed interference in affairs
OF the Roman Catholic church and her
President. IL was also charged that
Mrs. storer had meddled with French
politics by taking part in anti-Repub-
lican intrigue TO promote the marriage
OF Victor Bonaparte with member OF
the Orleans family. StOrer denies the
dents interest in the selection OF Arch
bishop ireland as a cardinal was not
due to storer or to Storer's wife, but
the President alone.
Storer says that his removal in so
summary a manner suddenly dismissed
him from an Office which he had been
given reason to believe he had filed to
the satisfaction Of his own Government
and OF that TO which he was accredited
and being accompanied by no public
explanation It exposed him to suspi-
cions and Injurious conJectures.
The correspondence shows the family
relations OF the President and the
Storers from the time Roosevelt was
Governor OF New York. just after the
Spanish-American war Some OF the
Roosevelt letters TO Storer were adj
dressed MY Dear Belamy" and 20 his
wife Ny Dear. Maria" and Mrs. Storer
addressed the President as Dear Theo-
dore.''

NAME FOR AMUSEMENT
LANE AT THE FAIR

~ The question Of a name for the
amusement lane at the state fair to
be held here this sunnleris still unde-
.cided. Some time ago the state fair
officials announced that the name would
be submitted to a vote Of the people
of North Dakota. Any person in the
state was to have been permitted to
cast a ballot in favor OF any name and
the only requirement was that the voter
accompany his ballot with ]. a 5o4cent
piece. Ia
a number Of votes have been receiv-
ed and are now onfile The names sug-
gested are many and some of them very
good. However the fair officials want
more votess and ii is probable that the
matter will not be decided one way or
another until more votes are received.

 MEXICO CITY Knights Of Columbus are to Visit the Southern
 Republic 7.

The Knights of Columbus are ar leo. It is now expected that all pans for the trip will be completed within the next two or three weeks. and the party will start from Fl Paso in the early spring. It is proposed to make 1t one of the largest excursion that has ever been taken by any order to the southern republic.
 The knights will assemble in Ei. Paso from the four corners of the United States, and organize them selves into an excursion party which will leave over the Mexican Central. It is proposed 10 first visit the capi- tai and subsequently other noted cit ies and places of interest The ex- cursioR was planned some time ago. At that time, however, only members of the order residing in Texas contem-
 plated making the trip. But since then other lodges over the United States have become interested and consequently, a large number Will constitute the excursion.
 One of the chief objects of the trip will be to visit the Mexico City lodge which is in a nourishing condition. While the exact date of the excur. sion has not yet been fixed. iC is said that a sufficient number have signified their intention to make the trip 10 jus. tify the running of, at least. one spC. cial train and the probabilities aTe that two will be required tc carry tho visitors on their southern jaunt.

THREE MINERS INJURED
Man Who picked the Missed Hole
 Only One to Escape.

Globe Silver BeltD
 A serious accident occurred on the third level of the Old Dominion mine this morning. Four men, all Italians whose names could not be learned in time for this issue, were at work on this level, enc of them a machine man, and two hammers the fourth being al work with a pick which caused an ex. plosion in a missed hole. The man whose pick did the damage escaped unscathed, though he was nearest to the danger.
 One of the injured men had both eyes destroyed and innumerable bits of rock of various sizes were blown into his face and body, 1t is feared he will not survive. Another had several ribs broken and was otherwise badly iaceratea and punctured by the flying pieces oS rock. The third was badly cut about the face and body and a piece Of rock nearly two inches in diameter entered the front of the left thigh and passes almost through the limb, as if 1t were bullet
 Drs. Holt. Kennedy and Sturgeon spent nearly three hours in attendance upon the injured men, and say they have rarely seen 50 many wounds in f1icted upon a victim of similar ex- plosion.
