PEKING, Oct. 9.-One hundred of the
wealthiest Chinese merchants. recog-
nized as the most conservative class,
gave a farewell banquet last night to
the delegation of American business
men representing the chambers OF COM
merce on the Pacific coast.
bClad In their purple robes, with blue
striking contrast to the Americans,
who sat beneath the entwined flags of
dragons and the Stars and Stripes
The American speakers referred to
their amazement at their reception.
which they characterized as overwhelm-
ing throughout China, eliminating in
Peking, where they had been admitted
to the palaces of the forbidden city,
which seldom has been opened.
American Minister Calhoun said that
not only was this an event in the lives
of the visitors from the Pacific coast,
but in the history of China, as never
before had a Sbody of foreigners been
received here with such good will and
kindness. He added that there were
few American businessmen in China,
American trading having been carried
on largely by mail, and he pointed out
that America could not expect to COM
pete with other nations without cap
able representation on the spot. He
hoped that the visit of the delegation
would be the beginning of a new era.
The American delegation left this
morning to visit the treaty ports They
will go as far as Canton, and will sail
for the Unitel States October 25.

Anti-Foreign Outbreak Follows
Unrest in Human

VICTORIA, B. c., Oct. 9.-Japanese
and Chinese newspapers received here
contain accounts of unrest in Human.
The Siangtan correspondent of the
North China Herald reports an anti
foreign outbreak following the spread
ing of stories that missionaries had
killed some children. The mission COM
pounds were wrecked and looted, but
the missionaries managed to escape.
Count Ol<umwa, interviewed at Tokyo
rega riding the situation in China
shortly before the Empress of India
sailed, said that it was impossible to be
optimistic regarding China, The finan-
ces continue to. cause uneasiness, as
the levying of new taxes, and increases
to meet the deficit would inevitably
result in serious disaffection and riot
Gus disturbances.
He said that the struggle between
the new civilization and the counter
acting forces of the reactionists should
be watched with close attention as it
would determine the future OF the
country.

TRADING
ON FIRMER BASIS
Stock Market Broadens With
the Campaign for an
Advance

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The action OF
the securities market last week was
read as an expression of growing con-
fdence in the speculation. but under
restraint, especially from the disposi-
tion of waiting holdings to realize by
selling at advance.
The stock market broadened appre-
ciably with the entry of organized par
ties into the speculation to conduct
comprehensive campaign for an ad-
vance. Operations by market pools In
special stocks here and there also
showed their effects. The appearance
of antagonism to a large movement for
an advance was explained by the de-
mands upon the money market yet 70
be met.
The initiation of a larger operation
by speculative parties was encouraged
by the signs of progress in the recuper-
alton of capital resources. The COM
parative ease with which the October
settlements were effected and the slight
impression made on the New York
money market was accepted as proof
that the preparation for the autumn
strain had been so complete that the
need had been met. The need OF the
interior. money market to move the
crops is not satisfied fully. and banks
maintain a cautious attituds in the eX
tension OF new credits.

FEAST OF ST. FRANCIS
OF ASSIST CELEBRATED
Day Observed With Solemn
HiQh Mass and DeYOtions

The feast of st. Francis of Assist,
the patron saint of st. Francis parish
of which Rev. T. Caraher Is pastor,
was observed in the Vallejo street
church yesterday with solemn high
mass and evening devotions.
The high mass began at 1890 O'Clock
and at the end OF the first gospel a
panegyric of ST. Francis was preached
by Rev Cornelius Buckley, s. j., OF
St Ignatius church. The piety of st.
Francis. which led him to renounce the
world at an early age and his mission
ary zeal as the founder of the Fran
ciscan order, furnished the inspiration
for Father Buckleys eulogy.
The evening devotions began with
vespers at 1880 o'clock, at the close of
which Rev. Father Caraher discoursed
on the lesson taught by the life and
missionary services of the saint, whose
feast the congregation was celebrating.
Solemn benediction with the blessed
sacrament closed the celebration OF the
feast.

Not Dismissed for Miscon-

the last few weeks for INSTRUMENTATION
and tagging while on duty and the
censurng of many others for minor
offenses, Postmaster Arthur G. Fisk

patrons of the Office. They must
answer questions courteously and
to the best of their ability so long
as they are sure they are right. In
case of doubt they must call some
one in authority or refer the pa
tron to the proper office. They
must not in word or manner cause
irritation on the part of a patron
or add to It, If a patron be in
sulting or unreasonable they must
call some one who has authority
and can take the matter out OF
their hands.
- The postmaster will at all times
protect employees from insult or
attack when the employe has done
his best to alIay disturbance and
maintain the dignity and credit
of the service. Employees who
cause trouble with the public, or
add to 1t, will be dealt with Sc
verely. regardless of the subject
matter in dispute.

Fight Planned to Put Building
Operations Under Institu-

Especial Dispatch to The Call

SACRAMENTO, Oct. "a bitter fight
is promised at the next legislature to
have the building operations at the
state institutions taken out of the
hands of the state engineer and placed
under the various boards of mana gers
of the institutions. The board of prison
directors Is expected to lead in the fight
and the directors of several other state
institutions purpose to join in.
The resolution adopted by the board
of managers of the Napa state hospital
censuring Ellery for the alleged lack
of diligence shown in constructing new
buildings at the Napa asylum opened
the way.
The prison directors followed with a
resolution roasting Ellery for not fur
nishing new boiler for the Folsom
prison.
There is another hitch existing be-
tween Eiiery and the prison board. The
state legislature appropriated $4,000
for home for the warden at Folsom,
but the plans drawn for the home by
Ellery have not been approved by the
directors, who ask for something more

KLAMATH FALLS, Oct. S.-Hot
water for irrigation is the plan OF Dr.
7 A Best, who owns a large ranch
near town. He believes he will be able
to grow vegetables and fruit through
out the late fall and early spring be-
cause of the higher temperature of the
water. which will keep frost out of the
ground and tend to increase the tenn
perature of the soil.
The idea was suggested to Best by
a well on the S. P. Dellinger place next
to him.
DelIinger drilled for water for house
hold use, but the water was warm and
the well has not been used. Best pro-
poses TO drill wells near the Deliinger
