STATE FAIR RACES AT SACRAMENTO Novel Features Arranged by the Agricultural Directors. LAUNCH AN INNOVATION Purses to Be Paid on Each Eeat of Tro tin? and Pacing Events. PREMIUMS FOR THE IXHIBITS- New Departments in Which Handsome Awards Will Be Offered for Competition. SACRAMENTO, Cal., Jnne 12.— The | State Agricultural directors met to-day to I rearrange the premium list and adopt a speed programme for tne coming State fair. The speed programme, as agreed upon, provides for eight days trotting and pacing and nine days running. The trotting and t>acing purses range in value from $800 to $1200. For trotters are provided 2:40, 2:l£, 2:30, 2:35,2:24,2:15, 2:19, 2:17, 2:10 and 2:20 class races; for I pacers 2:27 and 2:25 class events, and for three-year-olds 2:22,2:17, 2:20, 2:14 and j 2:10 class contests. The 2:25. 2:35, 2:30 and 2:20 trots and the 2:27 and 2:22 paces are arranged on original conditions that offer an innova- ; tion in the light-harness brigade. They are called heat races, and the con- | ditions provide that the purse is to be divided into four parts, each heat to be a race. Winners of first money in the first three heats connot start for the fourth heat, but all that are eligible can go the first three heats, winning such money as they can. A horse distanced is not en- j titled to any money, notwithstanding that i it had previously won part of the purse, i There will be three moneys in each heat, \ and the way to get the most money is to drive for each heat. This plan insures a contest throughout the entire race, and j prevents the holding of one animal while another is being driven out. In the running division there will be ] closed on August 1 twelve stake?, eight of ; which are for three-year-olds and upward, with distances from six furlongs to two and a fourth miles, and four stakes for j two-year-olds. There will be five running races each day. The balance of the pro gramme will be announced on August 22. All who have seen the programme pro nounce it the best ever offered by the ! society. The total purses and stakes j amount to $35,000. The exhibition of stock will be held the last two weeks,- and several additional . features will be offered for the promotion ,' of livestock interests. The premium list j will be under consideration for several i days yet. Thus far an additional class has been formed for small Yorkshire swine and the premium for a family of hogs has been changed to one for a lerd. There will be no separate and distinct premiums for county exhibits in the agricultural de partment, but the money heretofore ap- j portioned for these premiums will be added to individual premiums. A new and separate department, to be known as the department of aairy prod ucts and machinery, was formed, and will be placed under the supervision of the California Dairy Association. The de partment will include premiums for all dairy products, as well as for refrigerators and 'modern dairy appliances. There will be cash premiums, besides medals, to the amount of about $500. It is proposed to have a practical dried fruit exhibit, where the teaching of cook ing and uses of dried fruit will he demon strated. A committee has been appointed to pro vide for a rocK-drilling contest, which in itself will be a great feature and interest the entire mining community. The matter of special attractions for the fair was referred to a committee. THORNDINE`S GOOD RACE He Won as He Pleased on the Western Grand Cir cuit. Running Events Decided at Brooklyn, Cincinnati, Forsyth and St. Louis. OMAHA, Nebe. June 12.— Three thou sand people attended the Western grand circuit races at the Fair grounds. It was an ideal day, and the track was in excel lent shape after the shower of the pre vious afternoon. It was a great occasion for favorites, and the bookies were well pleased with the day's business. The first race on the card was the special for three-year-oJds eligible to the 2:30 trotting class. Falmont won easily in straight heats. The second event was the 2:15 pace. The fight for the fiv>> heats was between Hastings Boy and Dick Wilkes, which resulted in Wilkes' victory. The third race was the 2:35 trot, in which Nor dica, the favorite, won. As is generally the case, the best event was last on the card. This was the special for three-year-old pacers eligible for the 2:25 class. In the first heat four of the nine starters were distanced. They got off on the ninth score with Thorndine leading and Bessie E, who had been acting badly, a dozen lengths behind. The race was an exciting one, Thorndine winning the heat by a length. The second heat was almost as exciting, Thorndine again taking the lead, which he held to the finish, with Edith W crowding him closely and Mary H a good third. The last heat was tame, Thorndine being restrained to allow Edith W to finish first.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, June 12.— The de :ense in the Walling trial rested its case at ;his afternoon's session, and the State be »an its examination of witnesses in re suttal. Dr. Edwin Landy, who proved a good isitness for the defense two or three days igo, resumed the witness-stand. Em balming, he said, would probably destroy ;he evidence that a person had died from aemorrhage. The vertebrae from a hu man neck were introduced, and the wit ness pointed out how difficult it would be ac to sever a neck. The jurymen handled the ghastly piece of evidence rather gin gerly. Dr. Landy said in order to cut a dead off, it would be necessary to twist in svery direction. A letter was introduced and read by Colonel Nelson, from Scott Jackson to Walling. It was dated Greencastle, Ind., December 28, 1893, and referred to Stella, Cora, "Willies Queen, who Is now in Danville," and other girls. It was full of references to the parties given at Green castle during the holidays, but contained no reference to Pearl Bryan. The purpose of the prosecution in pre senting the letter was to show great inti macy between Jackson and Walline and Ln its purpose it succeeded. The prosecution Deeran in rebuttal by in troducing Robert Boies, colored, who said that the Caldwell Guards drilled January 31. Captain George Jackson was there in military overcoat and cap. Marshal Brown of Avondale, A. J. Clark of Cin cinnati and Liveryman Robestock gave George Jackson a very good character. Mrs. Hamilton of 731 West Seventh street, Cincinnati, saw the Caldwell Guards drill January 31. It was her nephew's birth day. The lawyers vied with each other in seeing who could consume the most time. FRANK MATO LAID TO REST Mod ft Ceremonies Over the Remain* in Philadelphia. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., June 12.— The funeral of Frank Mayo, the well-known actor, took place to-day from Holy Trinity Protestant Episcopal Church, where serv ices were conducted by Rev.

He was in charge of a Deputy Marshal and is charged with kill ing George Mosher, second mate of the l'acoma, while on a voyage from San Francisco to Liverpool. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1896. DAGGETT SWEATS FOR FRANK GOULD A " Lead-Pipe Cinch " on the Convention Is Pro- • claimed. SHOVELING MINT JOBS. The Opposition Waits for a Can didate and a Spontaneous Boom. ISSUE OF THE CONVENTION. Buckley Delegates Indorse White for the Presidency, and Order a Special Train. "Daggett has a lead-pipe cinch," say the politicians of the Mint and the Junta as they hustle or worm about under ordprs getting in their work for Gould, the Junta's cause and the Daggett programme generally. There is no doubt in the minds of Dag gett's henchmen that Gould will be elected chairman, that the Junta delegation will be seated and that Daggett will get, direct and do at Sacramento according to his heart's desires. Tliere is no bunch grass growing rankly on Daggett's heels. He works while it is day and then works while it is night and his talking is inversely as his hustling. He has worked up an iron will and de clared, "My man Gould shall rule my con vention." Daggett works and keeps still, while Mc- Nab hustles and talks— talks of the lead pipe cinch on Gould's election and the prosrarume that is to fol low. Datrgett is making sure through Rainey, Lanigan, McNab, Ed Greaney, George Maxwell, J. A. Fenton, Nat Seelig and the other Dagaett-Rainey hustlers that the Junta delegates are all right and that no proxies got away. Democrats from all over the State who come to the City are looked after, and the machine forces throughout the State are kept in close touch with the machine. Daggett is shoveling out Mint patronage for the benefit of his fight in even livelier fashion than he has done at any previous time. Five more jobs have been given out within a week. Three are to country poli ticians and two are City appointments. They have brought support to Gould. Day before yesterday a weigher in the assay department, Captain Ritter of Oak land, a Republican, who has been in the Mint for fifteen or eighteen years, received his discharge. The vacancy is to help make Gould chairman. The Mint employes understand that the recent civil-service order of President Cleveland is not to go into effect here until it is officially transmitted; that it is being held back in Washington that it ma}' not handicap Daggett's tight for the administration and himself,- and that it is still a good, thing to obey Daggett's orders. It is also expected that during the brief time between tne adjournment of the State Convention and the establishment of civil service protection Daggett will oil up his guillotine and see that sins of employes and of their brothers, cousins and political sponsors are properly punished. During that same opportune period the $2CKK) ap pointment of Gould's brother-in-law and other patronage rewards tnat Gould may possibly earn will be made finally good. The opposition to Gould developed no candidate yesterday. They were still at sea about both Foote and White, either of whom will be forced into the race if there is any possibility of accomplishing it. A candidate of some name and degree of power will be hoisted to the view of men by the early gathering of leaders that will put heads together at the Golden Eagle about Sunday night, when the possibili ties more clearly appear. Those who do not believe that Daegett will boss the convention are counting on a somewhat spontaneous union of the delegates opposed to Daggett, Gould, the Federal machine, gold rule of the plat form and the Chicago delegation and the surrender of the State machine to theDag gett-Gould-McNab combination. They calculate that such a last day candidate may be rushed into the chair and the slate smashed. Nearly every important feature of the convention depends on the chairmanship. The settlement of the issue promises to be attended by surprises for all hands. Congressman Maguire will not be at the convention when it opens, if he reaches it at all. Patton of Los Angeles is a possible candidate. John T. Coffey will play him if he gets a chance to. Senator Burke of Santa Cruz has also been mentioned. Po litical conventions are uncertain. Many of the interior delegates are expected to arrive in the City en route to Sacramento to-night aud to-morrow. Daggett is expected to go to Sacramento to-ni ht to open the commander-in-chief's headquarters. Quite a number will go up to-morrow. Monday will see the huge inpourine at the capital. San Francisco will yield her Democrats by hundreds. There will be only 322 looking for seats in the conven tion and crowds are expected to go along to see the fun. The Buckleyites will go in a special train. The Iroquois Club will go in a special embannered car at 4p. m. Monday. They will wear white straw hats and toma hawks, take aboard Iroquois clubs at Ue nicia and Suisun, and install officers of the new Sacramento club Monday ni^-tit. They talked much about the trip at the regular club meeting last night, when W. P. Stradley had finished his address on "Gladstone and Ireland." PLANS OF BUCKLEYITES White Indorsed for President of the United States— Arrangements for a Special Train. For more than an hour last night, the Buckley delegates to the State Convention worried over the matter of transportation to Sacramento next week, and in the course of the proceedings the fact was made evident that neither Buckley nor any of th« shining lights of that wing of the local Democracy had any money "to burn." A grand-stand play was made by the adoption of resolutions pledging the dele gation to vote and work in the interests of Stephen M. White for President of the United States. This move, like that of the nomination of Maguire for Congress, is in terpreted as an overture for the favor and influence in the coming convention of the gentlemen honored. Superintendent of Streets Ashworth drew forth tho greatest enthusiasm dis played during the two-hour Hession when he offered to contribute $20 of the $40 necessary to pay for the locomotive which is to haul the special train of the delega tion to Sacramento. But Andy Clunig, who was present with an evident grudge against all office-holders, pounced upon him and shouted that if he held as fat nn office as Ashworth he would defray the , whole extra expense of $40. At another stage of the proceedings he made a similar fling at Recoroer Glynn. The meeting of the delegation was for the purpose of perfecting arrangements for the exodus to Sacramento and for breaking into the State Convention. Rollcall showed 110 out of the 161 dele pates present. While it was in progress A. J. Clunie called Charles McCarthy down for responding to the name of De voto, the latter gentleman being absent. Mr. McCarthy became indignant and a warcloud for a second or two hovered on the horizon. The offender explained by stating he answered for Devoto as that gentleman was downstairs. Congressman Maguire's telegram return ing thanks for the nomination of toe Fifth District Convention was read and greeted with aoplause. Senator Donovan of the committee on headquarters at Sacramento reportea that he had made a conditional arrangement for a hall on Seventh street, between X and L, and the committee was given full power to act. The rent will be $10 per day until 10 p. m. and $4 per day extra if the hall is used until midnight. The committee on badges presented a sample of the insignia which it had or dered made. It consists of two silver dol lars overlapping one another, one snow ing the obverse and the other ths reverse of the coin, printed in silver on cardboard. This is surrounded by loops of pink rib bon. On the lower fac simile of the coin is the following legend: "Free Silver; 16 to 1. Democratic State Convention, Sac ramento, June, '96." They cost 35 cents each. On motion of Joseph Rothschild the various Assembly district delegations elected chairmen to look after detail mat ters in Sacramento, and so in part relieve Dr. Stanton, the chairman of the City delegation. A recess was declared to al low of this being done, and the following chairmen were reported: Twenty- eighth District, James Ryan; Twenty-ninth District, P. H. Cahill; Thirtieth Nicholas Provost, President of the Master Bakers' Protective Association. District, J. H. Miller; Thirty-first Dislrict, T. Trace y; Thirty-second District, M. J. Rooney; Thirty-third District, M. J. Crane; Thirty fourth District, Herman Joost; Thirty-fifth District, P. J. Carr; Thirty-sixth Distri't, M. G. Sears; Thirty-seventh District, James N'ealon; Thirty-eighth District, M. J. Donovan; Thirty-ninth District, J. H. Steinbach; Fortieth District, Charles Hat?gerty: Forty-first Dis trict, P. F. Dunn: Forty-second District, P. T. Flynn; Forty-third District, Mat O'Donnell; Forty-fonrth District, D.Sweeney; Forty-fifth District, J. C. Castro. Secretary Humphreys introduced the following resolution without comment: Whereas, The Hon. Stephen M. White nas been prominently mentioned as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States of America; and, whereas, he has ever proved loyal to the interests of the American people, and has ever been the determined foe of grasping corporations and monopolies, as was illustrated by his opposi tion to the funding bill; and, whereas, he is the living embodiment of the principles ad vocated by the Democracy of California; there fore be it Resolved, That we, the delegates to the State Convention from the City and County of San Francisco do hereby pledge ourselves to vote only for such men for delegates to the Demo cratic National Convention as will pledge themselves to vote for and use their best en deavors to secure the nomination for President of the United States for the Hon. Stephen M. White, and we further pledge ourselves to do all within our power to have the State Conven tion send to the National Convention dele gates pledged to the Hon. Stephen M. White, California's choice for President of the United States. J. A. Steinbach opposed the resolution and asked, '"Dare you and can you afford to pledge yourself to a man whom we all know has no chance of election?" Here there were indignant and deter mined cries of "We can" and "We dare." After some further debate the resolution was unanimously adopted. Chairman Glynn of the committee on transportation reported that a special train could be obtained to Sacramento Dy guaranteeing 120 fares at S3 30 each and paying $40 extra for the locomotive. It was decided to accept this offer and that the train leave at 2:30 p. m. Monday. This arrangement included a return pas sage on any regular train. A rolfcall showed that 136 delegates would take ad vantage of the special train. Tickets will be obtainable at the Buck ley headquarters Sunday afternoon be tween 1 and 5 p. m., and there will be a meeting of the chairmen of the Assembly district delegations to make final arrange* ments at 8 p. M. to-morrow. Charles Edelman of Orange County was present and addressed the meeting just before it &djourned. In the course of his remarks he said the delegates from his county would go to the State Convention without bias for or against either of tne factions from this City, and he promised they would vote according to the law and merits of the case. Hia utterance was heartily applauded. SHINGLERS HAVE A GRIEVANCE An Alleged Breach of Agreement With the Trades Council tha Cause. The members of the shinglers' union are sorely perplexed over what it terms a breach of honor and confidence in the treatment it has received at the hands of the Trades Coun cil, which refused admittance to its delegates when they presented themselves for admission to that body. For the greater part of this indignity the shinglers blame the carpenters, as that uody is supposed to be in opposition to them as skilled mechanics. The following resolution, as adopted at the meeting of their union last night, speaks their sentiments: Be-solved, That shingling is recognised as a dis tinct and separate trade as any mt-cbanical art composed in the Buildlne Trades Council, and that we are entitled to the same recognition as Is ac corded to the affiliated unions-s ilnglers are ap prenticed and obliged to learn thfiir trade the same as any other trade: aud that we were urged to form a union and that we were organized as such by the committee of the Building Trad s Council, with promise of receiving full recognition as an affiliated union. All contractors and architects recognized us as such and »i!?neil a petition recommending that we do the work for whkhwohad formed our union In preference to carpenters; therefore be it further Resolved, That we do condemn the action of the Carpenters 1 District Council in prevailing j upon tne Building Trades Council to declare us not entitled to recognition as mechanics or as a union, thereby attempting to deprive us of the right to earn an honest living, and for sending threats to contractors, architects and all labor unions forbidding them to wortt with or employ us on penalty of a boycou and strike. This action we consider as antagonistic to union ism and to the exercise of liberty and the legiti mate pursuit of an honorable calling granted to every citizen. Father Yorke to Speak. Rev. P. C. Yorke will lecture in St. Mary's Church, California street, Sunday evening:, June 14, on "Are the Irish People Ciimlnals f" The proceedß from the lecture will be used by the Paulist father to help pay for repairing the exterior of the old church. MASTER BAKERS` GRAND PICNIC It Will Be Held at Schuet zen Park Next Thursday. GAMES FOR EVERYBODY. Bowling for Cash Prizes the Principal Feature of the Programme. PRESIDENT PROST'S THOUGHTS. Says the Association Consists of Sev enty Bakeries, With a Common Object in View. The retail grocers have had their turn at the wheel, made things interesting on the occasion of their twenty-fifth annual outing, and are quietly satisfied with their exhibition. Now comes the Master Bakers' Protective Association and says the day for it to bring its light fiom be neath the bushel has arrived. In other words, they propose to have a picnic themselves and show the City that the}' are not behind the times. The active officers of the Master Bakers' Protective Association are : President, Nicholas Prost; secretary, George Rutz, and cashier, William Ingling. They say this is going to be one of the kind of pic nics you talk about but seldom witness. It is to be held in California Schuetzen Park, near San Kafael, next Thursday, June 18. There will be bowling for cash prizes, eames for young and old, dancing and various other forms of amusement. In fact everything has been arranged for a royally good time, and an excellent en tertainment is assured to all who attend. The associacion and music band leaves Tiburon ferry, at the foot of Market street, at 9 a.m. Boats will leave at 7:30, 9, 11 and 11:30 a. m., and at 12:35 and 3:30 p. m. The admittance to the park, including fare, will be 75 cents. Children under 15 years of age will be charged but 25 cents. "Trie association," said President Prost, "is now composed of seventy bakeries, the proprietors of which are mostly of German descent. However, a few bakeries other than those controlled by Germans are at present represented, and it is our iuten tion to get as many as we can of all classes to unite with us. "Business in our line, as well as in most others, has been troing down hill for some time, and the only remedy lies in our join ing together and working for the common good. "One object we have in view is to cause all loaves to be sold for 5 cents. It doesn't make any difference how large the loaf is made, it should not be sold at less than that price. We are confident that ere long this condition of affairs will come about." ™ — " 1 "™ 11 *^ eel a joyousness, 8 great gladness in every bone, muscle and fibre oi your body.
