BEN'S EYES OPENED.
Harrison Getting Onto Cali-
fornia's Greatness.
He Finds That There Are a
Few People Here.
The Census Undoubtedly Did the
State An Injustice.
Santa Cruz Gave the Tourists a Charm
ing Reception—The Big Trees Sized
Up—Back to 'Frisco.
Associated Press Dispatches.
Santa Cruz. Cal., May I.—The presi
dent and party arrived here from Mont
erey at 8 o'clock this morning. The
mayor made a formal address of wel
come. The president responded as fol
lows :
Ma. Mayor and Fellow Citizens:—
It seems to me like improvidence that
all this tasteful and magnificent display
should be but for a moment. In all my
journeying in California where every
city has presented some surprise, and
where each has been characterized by
lavish and generous display, I have not
seen anything so suddenly created, and
yet so beautiful. lam sure we have not
ridden through any street more attrac
tive than this. I thank you most sin
cerely for this cordial welcome, and I
know you are loving and kindly people.
We have been received, strangers as we
■were, with affection, and everywhere as
I look into the faces of this people, I
feel my heart swell with pride that I
am an American, and that California is
one of the American states."
The procession then passed under a
large arch profusely decorated with
calla lilies and palms. The pioneers and
local Grand Army post were here drawn
up in line. They greeted the chief ex
ecutive with cheering, so continuous
that he was compelled to stand in his
carriage hat in hand throughout the
trip.
Mrs. Harrison was presented, by J. A,
Reynolds Relief corps, with a beautiful
album of pressed flowers and mounted
•views of Santa Cruz scenery.
A TRIP TO THE Did UtEKS.
The visitors were escorted to a special
train at the narrow-gauge station, and
taken to the big trees, where they were
also cordially received. The people
cheered, and the school children sang
patriotic selections. President and Mrs.
Harrison and twenty-five other members
of the party entered the trunk of the
hollow tree once occupied by General
Fremont as a camp. It took the presi
dent and twelve ethers with their hands
joined to encircle the tree known as the
Giant.
A SPEECH AT LOS GATOS.
Los Gatos, Cal., May I.—Los Gatos,
the next city at which the trainjstopped,
gave the president a royal welcome, in
which the local militia, Grand Army
men, Knights of Pythias, and nearly
all the inhabitants of the surrounding
country participated. The president
was escorted to a decorated stand near
the railroad track, and in response to
vociferous demands, made the following
address:
"My Fellow Citizens: —If California
had lodged complaint against the last
census, I should have been inclined to
entertain it, and to order that your peo
ple be counted again. (.Laughter.)
From what I have seen in these days of
pleasant travel through your state, I am
aure the census enumerators have not
taken you all. We have had another
surprise in coming over these
mountains, to iind that not
the valleys, alone, of California, but
its hill tops are capable of productive
cultivation. We have been greatly sur
prised to see vineyards and orchards at
these altitudes, and to know that your
fields rival in productiveness the famous
valleys of your state. I thank you for
your cordial greeting. It overpowers
me. I feel that these brief stops are
but a poor recompense for the trouble
and care you have taken, but I can only
thank you, and say we will carry away
most happy impressions of California,
and that in public and private life, it
will give me pleasure always to show
my appreciation of your great state."
BACK TO SAN FRANCISCO.
San Francisco, May I.—President
Harrison and party returned from Santa
Cruz shortly before noon today, and
were at once conducted to the rooms of
the chamber of commerce, in the mer
chant's exchange block, which had
been tastefully decorated with bunting
and evergreens. Here a reception was
held by the chamber ox commerce, as
sisted by other commercial bodies of the
city, to which Mexican war veterans,
California pioneers and member' of sev
eral scientitical associations were in
vited.
ANOTHER SPEECH.
President Harrison made the following
addresß:
Mr. President and Gentlemen of
the Assembled Societies : I have been
subjected during my stay in California,
in some respects to the same treatment
a policeman accords to the tramp. I
have been kept "moving on." You
have substituted flowers and kindness for
the policeman's club, and yet, notwith
standing all this, we come to you this
morning, not exhausted or used up, but
a little fatigued. Your cordial greetings
are more exbilerating than your wine,
and perhaps safer for the constitution.
lam glad to stand in the presence 01
this assemblage of business men. I
have tried to make this a
business administration. Of course we
cannot wholly separate puliti: s from the
national administration ; but 1 have felt
that every public officer owed his best
service to the people without distinc
tion to party; that in administering ofU
cial trusts we were, in a very strict sense,
not merely in a figurative sense, your
servants. It. has been my desire that in
every branch of the public service there
should be improvement. I have stimu
lated all the secretaries and have re
ceived a stimulus from them, in an en
deavor in all the departments of the
government that touch your busi
ness life, to give you "as perfect
a service as possible. This we owe to
you; but if I were pursuing party ends
I should feel I was by such methods es
tablishing my party in the confidence of
the people. I feel that we have come to
the point where American industries,
American commerce and American in-
fluence are to be revived and extended.
The American sentiment and feeling
was never more controlling than now ;
and Ido not use that term in the nar
row sense of native Americans, but to
embrace all loyal citizens, whether na
tive born or adopted, who have
the love of our flag in their
hearts. I shall speak tonight,
probably, at the banquet of business
men, and will not enter into any lengthy
discussion here. Indeed. I am careful
not to trespass upon any forbidden topic
that I may not in the smallest degree
offend those who have forgotten party
politics in extending this greeting to us,
and I do not know how far I should talk
upon these public questions ; but since
your chairman has alluded to them, I
can say I am in hearty sympathy with
the suggestions he has made. I believe
there are methods by which we shall put
the American flag upon the sea again. In
speaking the other day I used an illus
tration which will perhaps be apt in this
company of merchants. You recall, all
of you, "certainly those oi my age, the
time when no merchant sent out travel
ing men. He expected the buyer to
come to his store. Perhaps that was
well enough, but certain enterprisjng
men sought custom by putting traveling
men with samples upon the road. How
everj the conservative merchant re
garded that innovation, he had but one
choice—to put traveling men on the
road, or go out of the business. In this
question ol shipping we are in a similar
condition. The great commercial gov
ernments of the world have stimulated
their shipping interests by direct or in
direct subsidies; while we have been
saying, "No, we prefer the old way."
We must advance, or—l will not say, go
out of business: for we have already
gone out. I thank you most cordially
for your greeting and bid you good bye.
JOHN and jerry speak.
Postmaster-General Wanamaker and
Secretary Rusk were then called on for
speei hes, and responded in a vein that
caused much laughter and applause.
In the course of his speech, the post
master general in response to cries of
"postoffice." said: "I'd like to buy
something before I go away, if anyone
of you can be found to sell it". For about
live years the United States government
' has been trying to give you a
postoffice. You're all busy loading
your ships with wheat, but
no one seems to want to sell a plat of
ground to the government to build a
postoffice on. One fine site lam apt to
lind is on Market street, and this one
is locked up, unless a certain price is
paid, and that price is the price of the
plat in about nine years in the future.
So, gentlemen, we may have to leave
your beautiful state with nothing but
our best wishes."
<;. a. r. festival.
After lunch the president proceeded
to the Mechanics' pavilion, where the
local posts of the Grand Army of the Re
; public held their May-day festival. The
; pavilion was gaily decorated and crowded
| with spectators.
WHAT BECOMES OF IT?
A COUNTY FUND WHICH MYSTERI
OUSLY DISAPPEARS.
Why Do the Supervisors Refuse to Re
turn Money to Which They Have no
Claim—A Correspondent's Queries.
Editors Herald : —lt might interest
the taxpayers' committee to learn what
becomes of the fund accumulated every
year by the sale of property for delin
quent county taxes, upon which the
taxes are really paid. When the owner
of a certain piece of land has paid taxes
upon it for years, he is often surprised
to find it on the delinquent tax list as
sessed to some one else, or to an un
known owner. In due time the tax col
lector advertises the fact that the taxes
are not paid on this land, and he finally
sells the land to someone who is willing
to pay the tax and let the owner redeem
it at his convenience, taking the penalty
allowed by law as interest on the money
he advances. When he learns from the
owner that the taxes were really paid,
he should be able to recover his money
by demand upon the board of super
visors, but payment is refused and gives
rise to a suspicion that this is a scheme
to provide a fund for themselves. The
county tax collector may say that he was
not aware that the tax was already paid,
but if he is not he ought to be, because
he has given a receipt to the owner and
his books show the fact, and also that he
has again collected the tax for the same
year on the same land, by sale.
The buyer of the tax certificates feels
that he has been swindled; his money
haß been obtained under false pretenses.
As those who have taken it refuse to
give it back, he tries to get the owner of
the land to pay it, and so one wrong
brings about another,. In the mean
time which one of the county officers
profits by this steal?
When such mistakes occur in the
office of the city tax collector, the
money is refunded, and why not by the
county tax collector? W. H. H.

Sunday Closing; Is Legal.
Cincinnati, May I.—Over a year ago
two saloon-keepers were convicted of
violating the state law by keeping open
on Sunday. The case has been appealed
from time to time, but today the circuit
court,which ranked next to the supreme
court of the state, confirmed the sen
tence of conviction of the lower court.
| The penalty is a fine and imprisonment.

SECRETARY FOSTER'S FINANCIAL VIEWS.
Secretary Foster, in speaking today
concerning financial matters, said, in
his opinion, the government would be
able to take care of all its obligations,
and that .in addition to $236,000,000 of
bonds already retired by this adminis
tration, it would, in his opinion, add a
considerable amount in the two years
that remain. Concerning the $100,000,
--000 legal tender redemption fund in the
treasury, the secretary said he did not
expect that any condition of affairs
would arise which would make it neces
sary for the government to touch it. He
intimated, however, that this fund
might be used without legislative action,
in case of absolute necessity, to prevent
discredit to government obligations.
Foster said the last statement made by
Leech, director of the mint, was an ad
mirable one. There were some state
ments in it, however, which he would
have expressed differently, had he pre
pared the paper himself.
The first step contemplated by Secre
tary Foster for getting the subsidiary
coin now in the treasury, into circula
tion, was taken today, when the follow
ing notice, signed by United States
Treasurer Nebeker, was prepared at the
treasury department, and to be sent to
banks and bankers throughout the
United States: "The coinage of stand
ard silver dollars authorized by the act
of February 28th, 1878, has been discon
tinued by the act of July 14th, 1800.
The treasurer finds it inconvenient to
furnish them otherwise than in the re
demption of silver certificates or treas
ury notes, but will forward silver half
dollars, quarter dollars or dimes, to any
address, tree of cost fortransportation,by
express, in sums of $200 or more, or
by registered mail in packages of $70,
in exchange for any other kind oi money
deposited in the treasury or any sub
treasury or depository bank. Remit
tances for this purpose will be received
by the treasurer and assistant treasurers
in the form of drafts on any bank or
banker in Washington, New York, Eos
ton, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Cincinnati,
Chicago, St. Louis, New Orleans or San
Francisco."
Under the provisions of the McKinley
tariff act, beginning today all special
taxes imposed upon dealers in leaf to
bacco, dealers in manufactured tobacco,
manufacturers of tobacco and cigars and
peddlers, are repealed. The law, bow
ever, requires that these various classes
of dealers shall register the names of
their place of business, etc., with the
local collector of internal revenue, with
the exception of dealers in man
ufactured tobacco. The number
of dealers of the latter
class according to the report of the com
missioner of internal revenue for 1800,
was 603,088 who paid a tax of $2.40
each. It is said at the department that
the abolition of this special tax of $2.40
will cause a loss to the government of
$1,600,000 annually.
SIXTY THOUSAND SEALS TO SLAUGHTER.
Secretary Foster has lixed the maxi

the will a petition asking that it be ad
mitted to probate. The hearing of the
petition has been set for May Bth, and
until that time the will itself will

THE DUSKY QUEEN.
Liltuokalanl Discourses on Hawallan-
Amerlcan Relations.
Bam Francisco, May I. —The Examin
er's Honolulu special quotes Queen Lil
iuokalani aa stating that in the event
of the rejection of the proposed new
treaty between Hawaii and the United
States, commerce between the two
countries, would greatly diminish, and
eventually pass outof American control.
"The greater part of our provisions,
machinery, lumber, hardware, and nu
merous other commodities," said the
queen, "will be rendered less profitable
by the action of the American people,
and will practically ruin permanent in
vestments now owned here, by many
hundreds of American citizens. These
investments aro very large and valu
able, certainly exceeding $15,000,000,
and are largely increasing every year.
Queen Lilinokalani intimated that Min
ister Carter would resign his post at
Washington, as his sympathy was with
tho Americans and not with the islands,
and being opposed to the new treaty.
Speaking of the congressional action
on surveys for a cable between San
Francisco and Honolulu, the queen said
a cable would be oi inestimable benefit
to the islands.

THE CONVENTION.
PROCEEDINGS YESTERDAY OF THE
EPISCOPAL MEETING.
The Resolutions Adopted Yesterday—High
License nnd Prohibition Each Have
Followers—The Bishop's Address.
The Episcopal convention opened yes
terday with a communion service at 8
a.m., the day being the festival of St.
Philip and St. James. A number of the
visiting clergymen assisted in the cere
monies. At the regular morning ses
sion which followed, the committee on
the state of the church reported in fa
vor of sending a monthly publication to
every member of the church in this
diocese. After appropriate remarks by
Rev. T. W. Haskins, the bishop and
others, the report was adopted.
More discussion followed over the
publication of tlie constitution with its
amendments and the amended canons.
The following resolution was then pre
sented and passed:
Resolved, That the sum of $100 be ap
propriated for the secretary and the
same for the treasurer; that the con
stitution, with its amendments, and the
amended canons, be published as an ap
pendix to the journal of the conven
tion ; that 200 copies be printed for dis
tribution, and 100 copies for the use of
the next convention.
The present treasurer of the diocese,
W. A. M. Van Bokkelen. was re-elected.
Other resolutions of varying character
were presented, discussed, and failed to
pass. The next one that was success
fully put through was: ,
Resolved, That the American Church
Building Fund association be com
mended to the attention of all in the di-
ocese.
The next resolution excited consider
able comment. Presented by the com
mittee and finally passed, the resolution
read:
i Resolved, That we return a vote of
thanks to the rector, wardens, and veß
try of St. Paul's church, Los Angeles,for
the use of their beautiful edifice ; to the
ladies of the various churches for their
bountiful lunches; to the press of the
city for their excellent reports; to the
railroad and steamboat companies for
j their epecial rates ; and to the good citi
i zens generally for their kind hospitality.
! The particular clause which excited
I the comment was the thanks to the
i press. It was stated that at least one
! paper in town had decidedly neglected
! the convention, and the resolution was
! too general. However, it was decided
that the resolution had better pass, as it
finally did, and the commotion subsided.
A document from the members of the
i high license party of San Francisco was
read, asking aid in controlling the
liquor traffic. Rev. B. W. R. Taylor
offered a resolution that the document
jbe received and placed on file ; and that
j the convention indorse the principle of
: high license as most conducive to the
control of the liquor traffic.
The discussion which followed proved
I that the Episcopal church was not a
f stronghold of the Prohibition party, by
any means, and the opinions regarding
high license were decidedly various, to
say the least. It was thought advisable
in view of the reasonable difference of
opinion among the members, to with
draw the resolution, which was done,
and the communication filed without
action.
The thanks of the Southern Convoca
j tion were extended to Bishop Nichols
i for causing the convention to meet in
| Los Angeles. Several warm addresses
of appreciation were made by local
members in reference to the matter pre
vious to the passage of the vote.
The bishop made a closing address,
recognizing the unity of spirit which
has characterized the convention. "This
morning," he remarked, "I have been
told that the sum of $100 a month will
be placed at the disposal of the Southern
Convocation for missionary work. This
is from a member of the Northern Con
vocation and I am not at liberty to men
tion his name, or even what it rhymes
with.- The interests of the diocese are
consolidated by this act. We can go

Bishop Nichols read the closing pray
ers and pronounced the benediction.
The evening session was devoted to a
meeting in the interests of the order of
St. Andrew. The latter society tills the
same place in the Episcopal church as
the Young Men's Institute in the Cath
olic church, and the Young People's
Society of Christian Endeavor in the
Protestant denominations. The society
admits men only, of all ages, though
the young men are preferred.
The first address last evening was by
the Rt. Rev. Willard Nichols, D. D..
and dealt with the history of the order
and its particular work.
Rev. M. Taylor, of Riverside, who or
ganized the St. Paul's chapter of the
order, delivered an address, dwelling
upon the benefit the order had been to
young men, and urging those present to
assist it by all the means in their power.
Mr. Win. M. Cubrey, of San Fran
cisco, made the closing address of the
evening, a witty and interesting speech,
that kept the audience in good humor
for some time, and yet abounded in
good thoughts.
The meeting closed at 9 o'clock, and
brought to an end the 41st annual con
vention of the Diocese of Southern Cal
ifornia of the Episcopal church.
BOSQUI'S FINE.
An Accommodation Which Savors
Strongly of Favoritism.
Is there such a thing as favoritism
manifested by the authorities of this
city in their treatment of public offen
ders? The following statement of facts
is sufficient to enable any one to draw
an inference for himself.
On the 2lßt day of April officer Bos
qui, of the police detective force, was
arraigned before Justice Owen on a
charge of battery preferred by Max
Harris. Bosqui pleaded guilty, was
fined $25, and was given until 5 o'clock
of the afternoon of the 22d in which to
pay the flue. That fine still remains
unpaid, or at least had not been paid at
a late hour yesterday afternoon.
A visit to the city auditor's office elic
ited the information that Bosqui's de
mand for eighteen days work, being up
to the date of his suspension for con
duct unbecoming an officer, had been
presented and duly audited in the
amount of $42 on the 20th. On the
same day the warrant was cashed at the
treasurer's office, to W. E. De Groot,
the broker, Bosqui having signed the
claim over to him for collection.
Why has not that fine been paid? If
a citizen is convicted of battery, and is
fined, he has to pay Or go to jail.
THAT PRESIDENTIAL BANQUET
A Los Angelenos Talks About It in
San Francisco.
Captain Siemens [Seamans?J, of Los
Angeles, was at the Palace hotel last
night, says Thursday's San Francisco
Examiner, full of the Los Angeles din
ner difficulties. Concerning the jeal
ousies and misunderstandings of the
the southern burg, he said:
"Why, the Republicans of Los Angeles
wanted the president to dine at the
Union League club the day he visited
us, so we telegraphed to El Paso asking
the president if he would dine. It cost
us $10, but we sent the dispatch. The
president accepted. Meanwhile the
three persons in the opposition, Messrs.
Harrison Grey Otis, Colonel Osborne
and Colonel Finley, set a dinner in the
Hollenbeck more elaborate than ours.
The president didn't answer their dis
patch, but they seemed to think that
no news was good news, and went to
buying champagne and food. The pres
ident dined at the Union League, and
the committee at the Hollenbeck re
ceived a petition from the Orphan
asylum and Ladies' Relief society ask
