..pacher cannot complete the roll cali OF
.fhe Republican State Convention until
zTese counties officially certify list of
the elect. Candidates are requesting
the secretary TO send them the names
Of the delegates TO the convention, but
their wishes cannot be gratifed. Ala
lneds. Santa clara and other counties
have neglected TO render reports Of
delegates chosen. The San Diego list
was not received at party headquarters
3 until yesterday. I glanced over the
lets last evening and noted among the
delegates these Republicans:

NO SPEECH FROM STONE.
General George Stone, chairman of
the State Committee. will waste no
time in speech making at Santa Cruz.
He will simply call the convention TO
order and ask the delegates to do the
rest OF the work. The south will pre-
sent Judge Mckinley as its choice for
chairman.
The san Francisco delegates to the
convention will hold a caucus or con-
ference tonight in Judge Graham s
courtroom. corner of California and
Webster streets. There is no sign that
the programme viii be presented this
evening. The settlement or non-settle-
ment of the carmens strike may have
quite an influence in the adjustment of
the slate. II was common gossip in
political camps yesterday that quite a
number of peacock feathers would be
lost and very little glory gained in the
strike
J. o. Hayes was in San Francisco
yesterday. His supporters claim that
he won three delegates in Butte County
last Saturday. Assertion is made that
the Butte delegates stand eight for
Pardee and three for Hayes.
In Yuba County last Saturday Dr.
Pardee captured all but three of the
delegates. and these three, the Pardee
campaigners say, are not for Hayes. ]
observe that z. A Forbes and W. NJ.
Cutler are among the delegates to the
- State convention. Cutler was once in
high favor at Southern Pacific head
Quarters, but he lost the confidence of
Z the corporation by his espousal of U.
S. Grants candidacy for the United
! states Senate. He was chairman of the
Republican State Committee in the
Campaign four years ago.
,. Congressman Gillett returned to the
city yesterday and was at his head
quarters in Union Square throughout
the afternoon and evening. DR.. Pardee
was in Oakland yesterday. He will go
Gillett seem to be satisfied over the
political situation. Each expresses the
highest regard for the ability and in
. regrity Of the other. l hear that
= George Knight has been cautioned
against the utterance of any sentiment
that might be construed as offensive to
Ruef OF course. Gillett and Herrin
comprehend that George might be car
rted away In a storm of -impassioned
o1story and say things in the heat OF
elcouence" that he would not say in
moments Of calm deliberation in the
presence Of the programme. 1t is un-
derstood that the slate, when 1t is pre-
scented to the convention, is TO be
spoken Of by the adherents Of Herrin
Ruef and Parker in terms of the high
est respect. Delegates hope that 4;
will not be delayed until the conven-
tion is weary of waiting. The incident
IS recalled that w. T. Herrin and
Colonel D. NJ. Burns got in such a
wrangle at the Palace Hotel as to
whether Asa r. Wells or Thomas "
Gator should be nominated for Mayor
that the programme to put Wells al
the head Of the ticket did not reach
B,nai Birth Hail. where the delegates
were assembled, until nearly o'clock
IN the evening
CANDIDATES IN THE DARK.
and Congressman Gillett do not seem
TO know anything more about the in
tentions Of the railroad than I know
myself fancy that Ruef is also in
the dark, the little light that shone
Saturday having failed in the Garments
strike.
A B. Lennon of Santa Rosa is in
San Francisco. The solidity of the
Sonoma delegation for Judge A. C. Bur
hett's candidacy for Supreme Court
hcLors' is unouestioned. I still hold to
the opinion that +. w Henshaw, Max
c. Sloss and A G. Burnett will be NOM
insted for the high court. II Justice
Lpriga2 could swing the Santa Clara
delegation wherever It would do his
own candidacy the most good his
chances Of nomination would be i'm
d proved. Judge Burnett, am told, may
exercise his own sweet will in tho
alignment of the Sonoma delegation
Z Gluetts supporters assert that Burnett
will support the Congressman for Gov
: ernor.
After all, John F. Davis may go to
the State convention at Santa Cruz as
q duly accredited delegate from Ala
media County. If the county commit
tee should certify his appointment as a
Slc1ao-afe from Souae district vvherefro the
