MAJOR COOK IS SPEEDY. | 'Defeated Kaasin Very Handily V at Six Furlongs in Coast Record Time. lOBENGULA WON UNDER WRAPS Sowena B Downed a Field of Twelve Speedy Youngsters in the Pacific Stake. It appears to be no trick at all for the sprinters to cover the six furlongs over the Bay District's fast clayey track in 1:13 coast record time. In fact when Major Cook defeated Kamsin very cleverly it. the sixth event yesterday, and stepped the distance in the record notch, it failed to aitract more than passing comment. The Major, carrying 104 pounds, was an even money chance, and after William Pinker ton, had reeled off the first half in .47*4 seconds, took command and headed the game Kamsin out a length at the wire. There were but three starters. The fact that a stake event as well as the usual selling and purse races had to be decided attracted a much better crowd tnan on the opening day of the week, and the betting was much "livelier. Turee of the seven events run off went to favorites in the betting. The Pacific stake for two-year-olds, worth J**) to the lucky youngster, at four furlongs, drew out a field of twelve. The Fl Primero staole entries, Lnmina and Fleur de Lis, had first call in the betting, the rim never laying better than 11 to 5 against the pair. Key del Tierra at threes was the next most fancied, with the Burns A* Water boose duo. Rowena B and King Street, third in demand at 4to 1. The lat ter stable opened in the betting at 2% to 1. Long odds were obtainable against the I other starters. The start was. as usual, good. Kowena B soon headed the field of gay colors and, clipping along at a merry rate, passed the wire two lengths clear of her stable companion, King Street, who in a drive took tne place from Howard S by a nose. The distance was covered in 48"*£ seconds. Owner Pat Dunne annexed the purse in | the opening six-furlong run with San j Marco. The chestnut colt was backed . down from 7 to 5 to evens, and having a most ordinary field to dispose of won eas- j ily from the second choice, Candor. In the next event, a seven-furlong affair j decided under selling conditions, the 8 to j 6 choice. Hermanita, won only after some j very persuasive riding on the part of Ed die Jones. Mt Air, the second choice, sailed out in the lead when the eight starters were dispatched, and died away to nothing in the stretch when looking all over a winner. Pollock, an outsider, then took up the running and was beaten out but thiee parts of a length by the favorite. The Flambeau-Fairy Rose filly. Sweet Rose, again disappointed her admirers in the six furlong dash that was third on the card. Sent to the post an even money choice, she ran well for half a mile and then began falling to the rear. . In a hard drive Piggott got the 2]4 to l second choice, . Morven, to the wire first, a neck in front of Crawford. Gold Bug was a close third. . . " '' Green Morris cut a watermelon in the fifth race with Strathflower, against which the ring laid sto 1. The mare led all the way, and won ridden out at the end half a length before , the 100 to 1 shot Seaside, ridden by Snider.' The 4 to 5 favorite j Thelma was beaten.out the last jump a ; nose for the show by Monita. Another.- fast performance was that of | > —^^ v flßi , £TCALt'" r RACING^ CHART. ,„... ; :!

But four started, with Yankee Doodle reigning a hot even I money choice. ■ The favorite, under wraps, with Benham and Logan at his side heads, apart, raced abreast almost to the bend for home. Jones on Loben gula, who had been trailing behind, then moved up with ',;. his I mount, and ',- easily taking the lead straightened for the wire, won under Fa pull," a ' neck in front of Benham. The winner's time was 1:48, a fine performance considering the ease with which it was ae*J>mplished. •••'..; Track and Paddock Items. This will be the closing day of the Cali fornia • Jockey Club's two weeks' meeting. Ingleside . track will reopen to-morrow with a great card and "Ladies' day." as the special attraction. ' Jockey Heinrichs of Little Pete fame de parted for St. Louis last evening. Ever since the exposure* the "St. Louis Garri son" has been guarded by an employe of the Morse Patrol Agency, the officials of the Jockey Club fearing no doubt that the ruled-off riders or their friends might at tempt an assault on the ex-friend of the Chinese plunger. There was quite a heavy play on Rastus, who faced the starter for the first time in the two-year stake. The roan son of Flam beau, who is a half brother to Tim and Pat Murphy, was originally named Mike Mur phy, to denote the relationship probably, but it did not suit the taste of his esthetic purchaser at the Palo Alto stock farm sale. The youngster was slow to get away but showed a good turn of speed. Eddie Jones seems to be carrying off the jockey honors easy. He again rode three' winners yesterday, including Rowena B, winner of the stake event. TO ARRANGE PRIMARIES. The Republican County Commit tee Will Meet To-Morrow Evening. ' * Another Booming Meeting of the Growing Howard Republican Club Last Night. JJThe Republican County Committee will meet in Scottish Hall to-morrOw evening, according to a call issued by Chairman Manwaring yesterday. , At this meeting the matter of the pri mary election for delegates to the State Convention will be taken hold of and a date for the election fixed. The course hereto fore outlined will be followed, the mem bers from the Fourth and Fifth Congres sional districts forming themselves into separate committees for the official conduct of tne elections in those districts. The primary will probably be held within two weeks. Republican club meetings throughout the City are increasing in number. One of those held last night was the fort nightly gathering of the Howard Club, which" has started out with the ambition and promise of being the banner Republi can club of the City during the coming campaign. The largest hall in Pythian Castle was packed at the meeting, which was pre sided over by Frederick Fry. Brief and snappy speeches were delivered by John T. Dare, Justice G. C. Groezinger, A. T. Barnett, W. J. Blattner, Colonel Eddy, James Field, C. W. Kyle, Fred Eggers, John W. Koch, F. McGregor, the secre tary, Thomas F. Graham and others. The proceedings were further enlivened and varied by songs rendered by Messrs. Silver and Wyatt, McCloskey and Mc- Henry and Webb and Heffernan, who were accompanied on the piano by Charles Ward. Waiter Burley's recitations were another^ feature. Forty new members were added to the roll.

CALLSTHEM CORMORANTS Attorney John Flournoy Withers the People's Home Bank Directors. NO LONGER BANK COUNSEL. He Declares the Board Never Votes for the Interests of the Insti tution. John Flournoy has been retired from the position of attorney : for the People's Home Savings Bank, the unfortunate in stitution that has paid but two dividends in nearly three years, while a ring in con trol has grown rich out of the manage ment. Mr. Flournoy is only too glad to be done with the ring. "I quit the employ of the bank," he wrote yesterday in his letter of resignation, '•without a single regret and with the hope that whatever calamity may hereafter be fall me and the 10,000 people whose prop erty is now under your control no fate will be so unkind as to ever again bring any of us in intimate contact with you or with men of your temper aud character." The depositors without an exception were anxious for Flournoy to continue as j attorney of the bank. He himself did not wish to retain the position, as he could not agree with, the directors, who, in fact, re jected his advice in cases to benefit their friends against the interests of depositors. l The directors met yesterday and adopted j a resolution dispensing with Mr. Flour- ! noy's services, j. Dalziell Brown, secre- j tary of the Safe Deposit and Trust Com- i panv, which is trustee for 2600 depositors, appeared with Attorney Bartnett and pro tested against the action; and besides there was a petition from 1600 depositors, representing in all over $1,000,000, against the removal of the reputable attorney. Immediately after the meeting Mr. Flournoy was notified of the change, and he replied in this interesting fashion, with hard dings at the board : March 31, 1896. Board of Directors of the People's Home Savings Gkntlemen : 1 acknowledge receipt of your communication Informing me that you have passed a resolution dispensing with my services. I desire to thank George F. Davidson j and I. J. Truman for their considerate action j toward me, and I do not wish anything in this letter to be in any way construed as a reflec- j lion upon them, In my judgment they are j the only present directors who have informed j themselves of the condition of the affairs of ! the bank and who have any adequate concep- | Hon of the duties of trustees of a bank in liqui dation. Your resolution above referred to is as fol lows : "As the litigation here of .the People's Home Savings Bunk is now in such a condition that a salaried attorney is not necessary, and the payment of regulary salary to any attorney would be an unnecessary burden upon the I creditors of said bank, and as the cases pend- I ing outside this City are in the hands of local attorneys that represent said bank, be it there fore Resolved, That from and after this date this board will dispense with the services of John \ Flournoy, Esq., its attorney, and that no regu lar attorney snail be employed by this board, and Mr. Flournoy is hereby directed to deliver to the secretary of the bank all boot's and pa pers belonging to the bank now in his pos session." BHif "iff iprHrBBmIBIIB I am exceedingly amused at your recently developed anxiety to remove "unnecessary burdens from the creditors of the bank." I trust, however, that very few of the depositors will be found so simple as to be deceived by such expressions of high regard for their wel fare, and that still fewer will be so soothed by "THE CALL" RACING GUIDE.

Taylor and Captain Freeman. Taylor was elected to-day. It took me four months to familiarize myself with the bank's affairs, he learned enough in four hours to vote on my removal. "The directors claimed to have acted on the score of economy— absolute nonsense; they never thought of such a thing for a moment. They claimed there was no ne cessity for an - attorney, yet : there are 120 suits to be brought against the stock holders, and: nineteen suits are pending involving $200,000. This does not include the ordinary routine of the bank, requiring advice of counsel daily, nor does it take in business in Arizona which was done by local attorneys under my supervision. The plan is to let the work out to different attorneys. The institution is managed on methods of little political clubs, and seems to be conducted as a semi-political machine, which is . managed by Stone, Thornton and Sheehan. "Cormorants!" DR. BROWN'S FATE. It Is, Believed That the Bay. Conference at Berkeley April 14 Will Expel Him From the Pulpit. When the Bay Association and Bay Conference of the Congregational church meet at Berkeley April 14 it is confidently believed that their joint labors will end Dr. C. O. Brown s career as pastor of the First Congregational Church. That a force is slowly gathering against him that will sweep him away is the expression of several prominent members. The committee of five on credentials of the Berkeley meeting will be in the court of inquiry. Deacon CalebScudder, Deacon I. H. Morse and three others not yet known will compose the committee. To-night the First Congregational Church in a body will take up the expulsion and excommunication of Mrs. Stockton, charged with trying to extort money from Dr. Brown. Her pert' letter of resignation which she wrote to the trustees was ignored, as the Congregational church does not receive and consider letters of resignation from members. .- » m — • Sanborn, Vail & Co. have new goods all ovei the store.

OFFER OF THE LICK TRUST. Delegations Given Thirty Days to Amend Pending Proposi tions. The Board of Regents of the State Uni versity, at a special meeting held yester day at the Mark Hopkins Institute of Art, to consider l sites for -She Wilmerding school, listened to delegations represent ing San Francisco, Alameda and San Joa- : quin counties. The Regents attending were Governor* Budd, Hallidie, Martin, Houghton, Jeter, Wallace, John E. Budd, Marye, Chase, Reinstein, Phelps, Black, Lynch, Rodgers, Slack, Foote and Hell man.' ' ' - ■';.>'- \- The introduction of the new Regent, the Governor's brother, John E. Budd, was brief. The report of the special committee on sites for Wilmerding school, which was submitted at the last : meeting' 'and laid over, was taken up and read by J. West Martin. Seventeen offers are enumerated, which embrace tenders from San Fran cisco, San Leandro, Redwood City, Berke ley, Fruitvaie, Oakland, . Lorin, Lakeport and Stockton. The report of ; the committee recom mends the acceptance of the Teraescal site, and for the purpose of getting the question properly presented, J.' West Martin moved the adoption of the report. Alfred Bouvier then addressed the board, advocating the selection of > a site in San Francisco. He spoke as a representative of the State Development Committee. James D. Phelan read a memorial from a joint committee of I the Merchants' Asso ciation, Chamber of Commerce, Mechanics' Institute, the Art Association and State Development Company. The memorial is signed by James 0. Phelan, Alfred Bou vier, Henry J. Crocker. Joseph «'M. Leg gett, Hugo D. Keil and J. Richard Freud. The conclusions of the memorial are: First— A trades school should be located where it will do the most good. Second— That in this view San Francisco is the most desirable location. And, - Third— That the Regents' and the Lick trustees, acting : independently, yet in har mony, have it lv their power, to provide a great trades school; but if these forces are divided two schools will result, both inefficient and in adequate. '.'.. Therefore, we urge upon the . wisdom of the Regents to confer with the Lick trustees, and if arrangements as to site cannot be satisfac torily arranged on .the land ; of the Lick trustees, which is large enough for both, then | this committee will seek a site in the neighbor hood and offer it to the Regents. ; But the sug gestion of the Lick trustees to make arrange- I ments whereby a building now owned by j them, but insufficiently equipped, shall be i enlarged and made, exclusively a working j trades school and called the Wilmerding i School, having an independent faculty, will, with least expense and .greatest * efficiency, fullill the noble object of the trust established by J. C. Wilmerding, a San Francisco citizen and merchant during the forty years of his career in the metropolis, where his wealth was accumulated and to which he owed everthing for the favors of his fortune. The question then came up as to the power of the Lick trustees to amalgamate. Judge Wallace spoke on the subject, which called out the suggestion that the ques tion should be referred to j the . law com mittee. : • i Horace Davis of the Lick board of trus tees came in while r the point was under discussion. It was his judgment that the power to combine the Lick School with another institution was not denied in the trust. He said: "We have built a school: It is a success, and we go right along whether we co-operate ., or not, but we think we can do better and broader work by co-operating. We do not ; propose that you should be our tenants. We should like to have you come and acquire prop erty in our neighborhood. ;• We have had experience and you can share the benefit of that experience." " ; It was explained further in detail that the course .of instruction could be ex tended from fourteen branches now taught to twenty-two, and furtli3r, that 250 pupils of the Wilmerding School could be main tained at :80 per cent of ' the ; income of $400,000, and therefore experience to guide the Regents in the future could be ac quired without the sacrifice of any part of the bequest. The $400,000 remaining intact would , be increased by 20 per cent of the income. _ : , " Mr. Dohrmann, in,- addressing the Regents, held that any experiment that could be made without investing a large portion of : th bequest in buildings and lands should be commanded. The school, he said, was not land and buildings, but education. _'_. - • The San Francisco committee was given thirty days to submit other 1 propositions. The offer pending was referred to the law committee of. Regents— Rodgers, "Wallace and Foote. '.-.' : ■ .-. • In answer to . inquiries from Governor Budd, James D. Phelan said the San Jose proposition! offering land 'near the Hotel Vendome, was still open. *- ' The Stockton committee, consisting of I H. J. Corcoran, P.' B. Fraser, L. D.Woods, James Marsh. H. C. Shaw and Mrs. James Gillis. was next heard, - >~ • Mr. Corcoran! the chief spokesman, pre sented his case with force and clearness. The proposition pending as he understood it was to give the San Francisco boy, who now ~. has the chance to learn ;, fourteen trades in the Lick ; School, the further chance to learn twenty.two in a combined school. What he desired was to give the country boy a chance to learn one trade. "If you want to help your poor boys in San Francisco do , • away v with trades unions." : '.];:■■■■ % '";';'■}- ;i':Y'\'f '"-*;■ Mr. Corcoran likened San Francisco to a tcll-gatherer at the sea. The money was gathered from the interior and; some of it should be returned. He assured the re gents that if- necessary public spirit of Stockton . would - provide money for the buildings in addition to the land. ; • Mrs. Gillis spoke of .'the demoralizing in fluences of metropolitan life on the coun try youth, and t mentioned the advantages to the boy which country home would afford. ,! » ;.' I '.' ; i f>';/* ■•'■>,';• \'~'i : - William R. Davis, leader of the 'Alameda delegation, then made a lucid explanation of the pending ' propositions from that county. He' spoke of the population' of 110,000 people there, and of the three ex isting, trade schools in San ; Francisco, which has 'a population of • 350,000. To i place the fourth school in, San Francisco apd give none ;to Alameda County would be unjust. ; He V thought * that - there was danger of k the great nniversity /becoming topheavy on the Francisco side. Governor Budd raised the point that the law, now : required a : school 'of mechanics' arts to ; be '■'. established at ; the :, university, and to place the AVilmerding'school there would be giving Alameda (t County two schools of industrial art. : ; Vrl. ■ A . The " Oakland i committee, consisting ■ of W. R. Davis, P. E. Bowles and -R. M. Fitz gerald, were given thirty days' > time, the same as \ was given to "Stockton and San Francisco, to supplement the offers. '•! Regent Rodgers \ said ?he V had ', recently talked with William Alvord and had 1 rea son to hope from that convocation that a brother of the late Mr. Wilmerding would add to the . donation, as " there was a sur plus in ; the estate -. for division. In . Ger- : many, there : ' was > a Wilmerding .. chool founded by one of the testator's ancestors^' ; M Rodgers said : "I th ink it is proper and wise for.the board to -solve now not to affiliate "the Wilmerding ■ School with any other school. |'i We should declare it to he our '■ policy to carry out expressly the trust confided to us." \.' ; ' V ' •"■■*' ' '.". Mr. Rodgers introduced : a . resolution in line with his remarks, but it was not con sidered proper in view of the fact that the board had given the San Francisco repre sentatives thirty days' time, and had re ferred; their proposition -to the law com mittee. On motion of Superintendent Black, the principals of Pasadena Poiytechnical School, the Cogswell, Lick and San Fran cisco Poiytechnical schools were invited to come before the regents at the next meet ing. .;-:, •-■:■.. General : Houghton spoke of the proba bility that the Pioneer Woolen-mills prop erty in San Francisco, embracing large and substantial buildings, might be offered as a site for the school. ;. Further consideration of the subject was deferred until the regular meeting on the second Tuesday in May. New Irish-American Hall. There was a large gathering of; those Inter ested in the erection of an Irish-American hall in this Cltv at the meeting of delegates from the different Irish societies at K. R. B. Hall last night. It was decided to issue stock for $250, --000 and proceed with the plans for the pro posed builaing without further delay.

J 255 Washloaioa sire*. \ collect the insurance money due her from the death of her husband. . Mr. Barton complained that '- his . wife was continually running him in debt, not withstanding that he. used to give her all his money. Before he left this City about a month ago he gave all: the furniture and household goods to his wife, and she de manded the key of the house from him, thus virtually turning him out of doors. He said that bis wife never worked while he was with "her, but that she spent her; time gadding about and' talking spir itualism.: He was obliged last June, he said, to advertise in The Call warning tradesmen not to furnish her any credit on his account. He also contradicted the statement of Rev. M. V. Meserve, pastor of the Union square Free Baptist Church, to the effect that Barton took a contract for repairing the church and did the work unsatisfac torily. The contract, he- said, had been taken by Mr. Van Nortdel, Barton's part ner in the carpentering and building busi ness. Mr. Barton worked on the job and Van Nortdel received the money. The evangelist denounced . as utterly false his wife s statement that he told her she could make $500 by representing her self as Mrs. Baddin. He also said that the statement in the dispatch from Santa Rosa to the effect that his uncle was at the Palace Hotel in this City was a mistake. It was the uncle of Mrs. Elizabeth Ayer, secretary of Mr. Barton's society. Mrs. ■ Ayer . also returned from Santa Rosa and the work of further evangeliza tion will be proceeded with in this City, it being Mr. Barton's intention to hire a hall this week.
