LONDON, Nov. —A great mass-meet
ing of National Union Conservatives was
held to-nigl.t in Albert Hal!, under
the presidency of Kari Cadogan, Lord
Lientenai. of Ireland, at which the prin- j
cipal speaker was ihe Premier, the Mar
quis of Salisbury. No* fewer than SOCK)
per-ons were present, and the entire as
s.'ml rose at the entrance of Lord Salis
bury, cheered him to the echo and sang •
"For He's i Jolly Good Fellow."
Lord . -bury, who was in the best of
hjealth and spirits and who spoke with
rfrest animation, said that the situation
A- 'not destitute of elements of appre
'ijcnsion, either at home or abroad."
Referring to the disturbances on the ;
northwest frontier of India, he paid a
glowing tribute to Lord Elgin, the Vice- ;
roy, who, he said, has "acted so worthily j
in the great crisis wherein he has been
placed as to be completely absolved of all j
Charges of bad faith."
Speaking of foreign affairs, Lord Salis
bury denied that the Government had
yielded to France In the matter of S:am, j
I Tunis or Madagascar. Turning to home j
affairs, he said that tne government of |
London was a question which must De
solved, and could only be solved by giving j
to other and smaller municipal bodies aj
large part of the duties now performed. j
. by the London County Council. He
promised that the Government would j
■ introduce legislation on the subject at the
next session of Parliament.
"The present system," said his lord- ,
ship, "is due to the modern passion for j
bigness of tftings ana is too un wieldly."
He asked his hearers to look at what
had been done across the ocean. "Do you
want to be governed like New York?" he
X asked. "Yet the result, which was watched
with so much interest and which so many
i eople deplore*], was adopted after an el
fort to amend admitted defects in the
municipality by enormously increasing !
its area and bringing a much vaster popu- j
lation under its range. The undertaking j
has failed lamentaolv, because it could j
not ootain the assistance and co-opera
tion of the only class of men by whom
municipal institutions can be satisfac
torily and thoroughly governed."
Dealing with the results of the recent
Parliamentary bye-elections Lord Salis
bury attributed the Conservative and Lib
eral Unionist losses to the indifference in
their ranks, caused by the disorganization j
ot their adversaries; and he urged Union
ists not to relax vigilance, "as the oppo- !
sition has all the elemen is of organization
2nd only lacks a general."

"Washington, D. CL, Nov. 16. )
United States Consul Hugh Ling at
Nogales, Mexico, has famished the State
Department particulars of the supposed
murder of a party of American*, headed
by Captain Porter, by the Seris Indians,
on Tiburon Island, in the Gulf of Califor
nia. According to the statement made io
the Mexican customs officers by Martin
Mendez, master of the sloop Otila, Cap
tain Porter sailed from San Diego, Cal.,
with his companions in a ?mall boat to
engage in collecting shells. They left the
jurt of Guaymas August 9. under special
permission from tiie Mexican Govern
ment, to explore the shore and islands of
the gulf.
The Consul says that the island of
Tiburon is peopled by a most remarkable
tribe of Indians, who are noted for their
large size aiid extraordinary athletics on
land and water. Those who have wit
nessed their aquatic sports, at a respect
ful distance, declare that many of them
can actually walk, or rather run, upon tbe
water with no other assistance than
broad rawhide shoes. They are expert
fishermen and huntsmen, having rigid
ideas as to the maintenancj of game pre
serves on the island and limiting the
killing of game under severe penalties.
They destroy all children in infancy that
are malformed or appear to be lacking in
intelligence. In this way the standard of
p hysical and mental conditions in both
sexes is kept very high.
it is currently believed :hat at one time
the native women were exterminated to
make room lor a whiter and superior race
of women. The nucleus of this race of
newer women was formed fr^ni captives
made at various times extending over a
seres of years on lund an i water.
The naives have no school-, but each
home has a system of physical training.
They guard their siiores day and nighi,
and no man is allowed to penetr&:e the
island even if he shouH make a landing.
It is said that no epidemics have ever
prevailed on the island and disease i
scarcely known amoncr this extraordinary
people, so that the men and women are
magniricent in their Dhysicial develop
ment. No man or woman is allowed to
live oeyond the asre of 70 years no matter
how well pre«e'vel in bady and mind,
By careful selection a large percentage ol
the women have transparent, peachy com
plexions and auburn hair.

special Dispatch to The cam.
BOSTON", Nov. 16.— The action of the
Harvard couches in talcing Irom the foot
! ball team their sweater bearing the big H
{ has caused a tremendous amount of com
mnnt, and whether or not it will serve as
a "bracer" for the team is a matter of
opinion.
"It is true," said Captain Cabot of the
Harvard footbafl team, when asked re
garding the report that t he crimson li
that adorns the black sweater of the 'var
>ity players bad been removed. The men
who are affected by this act are Captain
Cabot, Moulton, Swam, Wheeler, Bonve,
Shaw, Doticette, Haskell. Donalii, Mills.
Garrison, Dibble, Warren, Parker and
Houehton.
Captain Cabot did not eire to say any
thing further than that they h3d been
deprived of their letter, and Guard Bouve
said: "The papers are making a pood
deal of talk about it, but we are not kick
ing."
Some studenta who know about the
affair are unanimous in their support of
the action of the coaches, and seem to
think that it will prove an incentive
toward better work. Others decry the
affair as a sad bit of humiliation and think
v was intended to punish a few members
of the eleven who did not work as hard
a- they should li.ive done.
It is generally stated that should Har
vard win from Pennsylvania Saturday,
j the "H" will be replaced and the men
' again mounted upon their wreath-covered
I pedestals.
Colonel "Jack" Wheelwright, '7(3, as
sistant corporation counsel, said he had
no doubt the men played as good foot
ball :ts they knew how against Yale. He
| thought that the disgrace of losing the H
must be most humiliating and doubted if
stripping the men of tne letter would
; have the effect of consolidating the team
; lor its game with -Pennsylvania.
A. 3. Garcea, '91, said mat he had a
i great deal oi sympathy for the players,
j who he had no doubt played their best,
i lie did think that too much honor was
) paid at Harvard to members of defeated
teams. He was of the opinion that the
insignin, whether the H or another em
blem, should be given only to members of
winning team?.

BENNETT LIKELY
TO BE RETURNED
His Surrender Under
the Extradition Act
Ordered.
Legal Battle In the Court of
Justice McColl at Vic
toria.
Habeas Corpus Proceedings still
Open to the Would-Be Wife-
Murderer.
Special Dispatch to The Call.
VICTORIA, Nov. I*3. — James G. Ben
nett, the California!* charged with having
attempted to kill his wife, seems likely to
go back to the States to stand his trial,
the extradition proceedings taken out by
the State of Cali ornia resulting success
fully this afternoon, in so far that the trial
Judge ordered the surrender of the accused
under the extradition act. There is, how
ever, still the right of habeas corpus pro
ceedings, and this will bo availed of to
the utmost by the defense.
The case excited a great deal of interest,
there being a large number of spectators
at the hearing before Justice McColl. The
application for extradition was made by
J. P. Walls on behalf of the State of Cali
fornia. Herbert Robertson for the de
ense opposed it. The officer sent by the
California authorities, J. Coleman, testi
fied as to the circumstances ol the crime.
H- was in the McAllistet-street bujlding
on October 9. and hearing screams, rushed
upstairs and found Bennett s ruggling
wuh his wife on the floor, in the act of
cutting her throat with a pocket-knife. As
Coleman dragged him away Bennett drove
the knife into his own throat.
Tne depositions taken in California were
next introduced. One was that of Ward
Gibson oi the San Francisco Police De
partment, who btated that Bennett while
at the Receiving Hospital had admitted
the crime, alleging tnat his wife's refusal
to live with him and the attentions of
other men to her were his provocation.
A deposition of Frederick Smith, Ben
nett's guard at the Keceivin ■ Hospital,
narrated tie facts of !he accused e-caping
from the hospital, which was effected by
simulating sleep, throwing Smith off his
guard and causing him Io leave for a sliori
time, Benneit taking advantage of this
absence.
Mrs. Dennett in her deposition said
that the accused upon entering her room
expressed his intention oi ki'im^ her, and
she vividly described the struggle that
followed.
KoDtnson, counsel for Bennett, urged
numerous oDJeci'ons in defense of hi*
client. He argued that the depositions
should not be admitted, on the ground
that no authority had been shown for tak
ing them. Tins objection being \over
ruled, Jtubertson cited authorities for the
purpose of showing that t^ere must be a
requisition on the partof the Government
of the State of California to empower the
court to act, and that the prosecution
must establish a case that would secure
conviction under California laws for the
offense of attempted murder. He urged
that such a case had not been rumfe out,
and that there was no proof of requi ition.
He therefore asked that the prisoner be
discharged.
Jnstice McColl suggested that the points
could oe b-tter dealt with on the habeas
corpus proceeding. He, therefore, made
the order to the effect thai tiie conn had
determined that Bennett should be sur
rendered under the extradition act, but
ill. owed lifteen days iv which application
might be made for habeas corpus. Bennett
tuts expressed bis intention of lighting
extradit on as bitterly as po-sibie, and
app.iration will prooablv te made daring
the week to have him relapsed on habeas
con u< procee'lihcs. There remains, too,
me loriual requisition from Washington
to Ottawa for Bennett's extradition, and
the neces-ary order from the Dominion
Government to band Bennett over to the
United btat n s authorities.

Death.

Special Dispatch (o The (.'ai.^
SACRAMENTO. Nov. 16.— Mrs. Porothy
E. Schubert and lour daughters of 405
Eleventh street have narrowly escaped
serious const quences from arsenical pois
oning. Tliey ate breakfast, together yes
terday morning, partaking, among oilier
things, of a certain preparation of mush.
A few hours afterward Mrs. Schubert
was taken violently sick. Her daiiL* liter,
Mis> Celia Sci.ubert, stenographer in a lo
cal wholesale-house, soon appeared at the
home, sudden illness having come upon
her. Her other listers quickly followed.
Doctors "were summoned and they pro
nounced the symptoms those of poison
ing.
lhe contents of the stomach of one of
the sufferers were given to a ciiemist for
annly.-is. His conclusion was that arsenic
had been swallowed. Afterward the mush
eaten by the family was eiven over 10
analysis, and it is declared that this has
been found to contain arsenic
Mrs. bebubert, when visited by a re
porter to-day, said that she was unwilling
to give out iniormation until the com
pletion of the analysis of tue cereal pre
paration partaken of yesterday morning.
S >c said, however, that there was no pos
sibility whatever that the poison had been
put into the mush purposely. The chem
ist bad told the doctors, she said, that the
poison was present in quantities to do
harm.
Mrs. Schubert and her daughter have
recovered almost entirely from the effects
of the poison, and they regard their es
cape as miraculously fortunule.
The original package, anasteboard box,
whicn contained t lie meal from which the
Schubert family ate. row is in the posses
sion of a chemist. The chemist said this
afternoon that the meal remaining in tne
box contained enough arsenic to kil a
very lar^e number of people. When
placid under a powerful magnifying guiss
t lie poisonous crystals were p amiy re
vealed. It was a miracle, he said, that
any one who had partaken of the mush
had escaped death.

"TRADE AND INDUSTKY."
Irving M. Scott Addre*««a Young Men
oi\ tlie Sabjaot.
There was a good-sized audience of
young men in the auditorium of the Young
Men' j Christian Association building last
night, assembled to listen tp Irving M.
Scott lecture on "Traie and Industry."
The lecture was very interesting and in
structive, as the speaker gave his hearers
the benefit of.an experience ol over thirty
years of business and travel.
Among other things Mr. Scott said that
since be came to thiscity the field of trade
had trrown far beyond the creates! expec
tations of the people of those days, but
there was still a great fieid lor the youne
men if they would only '.ake advantage of
it. One of tho great faults of the times
was the la<k of system. There was a need
for t he people to learn a trade and to know
it perfectly.
There were hundred* of people who
Wf re forced to remain in idleness or to
work for little pay because of the fact that
they had no trade. There were many op
portunities for intelligent men to make
mbnev and Increase the trade of this city
and State. Ttie people bought too many
things instead of making tuem, and the
man who would turn his trade into those
channels and work intelligently to supply
the people with articles w .ich we are now
buying elsewhere would succeed.
Mr. Scott then related some of bis
travels in foreign lands, and said that the
observations that he m:ide mere only
served to emphasize the fact that intelli
gence and industry and the know edge of
some craft made successful people.

Called Upon to Settle Differ
ences in the Democratic
Eanks.
The Trouble in the Thirty-
Second District Is Over
for a Time.
Followers of Sam Braunhart Refuse
to Obey the Orders of the
Raineyites.
Mnjor Hnrney, chairman of the general
committee of the Raiiiey wing of the local
Democracy, was called upon last night to
show his ability as a diplomat. When be
reached headquarters in the Bahlwin
Hotel he found an angry and excited
crowd of political workers from the
Thirty-second Assembly District awaiting
his arrival. They Dad been unable to set
tle their grievances among themselves,
and they looked to him to restore peace.
An attempt wa« m ide by him Monday
night to select five delegates to the con
vention to be held to-night in Metropoli-
tan Hall to nominate & Board of Free*
holders.
It was the same old story of a row, when
the Democrats of the district meet. The
delegation divided and two sets of dele
gates to the convention were nominated.
The re present at '.ves of both factions
were present last night to pres* their
claims for recognition. Neither side w:is
willing to give way. and ufter an hour of
heated discussion Major Harney decided
tnat he would have to act in an arbitrary
manner. He informed the contestants
that he would allow each side
to select two notniness and that
the fifth man would have to
be cho3en by lot. Both fictions retired
for a few minutes, and when they re
turned they sinnounced that they* had
a-teed on P. O'D'iineil, J. M. Harley, J.
Kelly and J. Power. Harney then
asked each side to suggest a can
didate for the fifth place. A. J.
Rt-avy and L). J. Mahoney were
nominated. Harney took a half-dollar
piece from his pocket and said that fie
would toss it in the air. If it came heads
Heavy would be the candidate; if tails,
Mahoney. The coin was tossed, it came
tails, dud Mahoney was declared the fifth
dele: a o.
Thtre was no election in the Twenty
ninth Distiict Monday night because Sen
ator Brannhart, who controls the major
ity of the deleuntep. is listed on the side of
the "reformers." He instructed the mem
bers on Monday night to refuse to
meet, and they obeyed him. A notice
wjb then sent out to them
by order of Major Harnay directing
them to report at hi-a 'quarters last nigbt,
and rxnla n why they had not obeyed
the call for Ihe election of delegate?.
Oniy six out of the twenty-five lesponded
to the notice, as the other nineteen are not
doing politics with Rainey.
I' was necessary to have the district
represented to-nisht, and Major Harney
was at first undecided as to wbat stand
lie should take. Ai'.er a hurried con
sultation wi'h George Love, who,
with Billy Givigan, constitutes his
advisory board when Rainey is not
clo:-e enough to give instructions, he di
rected that the names of the six members
present be written on slips of paper. He
then drew five of them from a hat and de
clared 'hem the delegates from the dis
trict. The lucky ones were John Buchan
an, T. J. Sheehan, M. A. Marron, T. D.
McCarthy and John F. Kennedy.
In the'Thirty-lifth District the Rainey
ites were unable to get five delegates.
