HP^B "When will we (dose our doors, Andy? Ntxl Friday?" C. F. Metzuer inquired of Mr. Louderbach. Army replied that the doors would be closed next January, when the election was over. ,i. B. Mulcahy declared tbat the citizens may rest assured that the committee was organized for the campaign, and to clinch bis 'statement he said that tbe rent of the rooms had been paid for another month. Confidentially he remarked that the people were dubious about the intentions of the committee because it had no ticket in the field, but he said the members were satis fied with some of the names indorsed by the Republican County Committee, and were content to wait until the time would come for taking further and decided action where dissatisfaction was felt. He appre hended treachery in the camp, although the belief was pretty general that harmony had been rest red in the ranks, and he threat ened that if any double game was played, the Republican Count] Committee "would he put :n the sewer," to use the words of a friend of his. He pointed to the roll, which contained 3000 signatures, and then said that ii there was auy trouble he was cer tain the regular Democratic County Com mittee, the Federated Trades and his com mittee would unite to elect a citizens' ticket, lie scouted the idea of the abolition of lus committee, and said that the harmony now existing was produced by a higher power, but if decent men are not sent to the con vention then the business men will make a determined fight. iroquois (i.ti;.

It is generally thought, However, that Davies has miscal culated ibis time. Frank Jones has returned from Seattle, He says that there is no organized club in that city, but the sports have a way of get ting around the law by having the exhibi tions take place in a theater, under the an nouncement that iii" play will consist of tlnee acts, entitled "Who Ever Gets There First Wins the Money."

Deciduous fruits will be In the greatest demand, and, as a consequence, the producers are quite happy over the prospect. Fresh fruit for Eastern shipment now commands from 20 to 50 per cent more than it did a year ago. The apiicots have nearly all been shipped, and peaches, plums and Bartlett pears are following iv quick Sue -ion. A general impression prevails that f ruitinen will make money this year. Offers of 3% cents a pound have been made for peaches, regardless of color, and same fruitmen are holding out for 4 cents. Bast season's crops went for 2% cents. The highest price means $80 a ton, or about $800 an acre. Bartlett pears of good quality will bring 10 cents a pound, which means about 5 cents apiece, $1 a box. S4O a tree and $2000 to b'.'W. an acre. Plums, prunes and almonds are very light and will not be profitable to any extent this season. PERSONAL NOTES. Dr. W. C. Baylor of Willows Is at the Grand.

The Wove of* Peace Hovers Over the Sons' Meeting. Swasey Assures the Ycung Natives of His Undying Friendship — Pioneers Post pone Their Pow-Wow. Last night the joint committee of the Native Sons of the Golden West held a meeting in Pioneer Hall. By some it was supposed to be a time and opportunity for a quarrel between the Pioneers and the Native Sons, but the first peep into the hallway, where old and young were in con versation, disabused the mind of all who had come with the object of witnessing a wrangle. Mr. Chamberlain, Chairman of the com mittee, said, after the usual routine of tbe opening of the session : " 1 can state with almost absolute certainty that all differ ences between the Pioneers and Native Sons will be amicably settled before a week. Let me request you to make no allusion to the matter during this evening's session. and to act us a dignified body with a worthy purpose in view." The committee appointed to thank Gov ernor Waterman for having proclaimed au extra holiday was discharged, Us work having been accomplished. A CONFERENCE DESIBXD. The Conference Committee reported that it would like to have a conference with the Pioneers to state to them why their support is wanted and needed. Such conference, the report added, has not yet been held. The committee asked that the Chairman of the Joint Committee, Mr. Chamberlain of the Finance Committee, Fred Crocker, Grand Marshal Tildeu aud B. P. Hammond Jr., the latter being a member of both the Pio neers and .Native Sons, be invited to ac company the Conference Committee to the meeting of the Pioneers next Monday night. The request was granted unanimously. The Committee on Hotels and Accommo dations reported having sent out a letter to the various parlors asking foi information relative to their rooms and needs. Eugene F. Bert, as Chairman of the En tertainment Committee, reported that sev eral flambeau and drill corps would partici pate in exercises to be held on the evening of September Sth at Union Square; that a sacred concert would be held at the park on the Sunday afternoon following; that an excursion would take place on Monday, September Bth; that the fireworks display will be at the Halght-street base-ball grounds ou the 9tb, for which the use of the grounds has been donated by President Mane, The report was adopted as read, except the last recommendation, which was or dered postponed. FORMING THE PARADE. The Parade Committee recommended in its report that the parade form at about 10 o'clock below First or Battery streets, march to Montgomery on Market, thence to Pine, up Pine to Kearny, back to Mar ket and out Market to Van Ness avenue; but from that point the route has not been decided. The committee also recommended that the parade be general and every association and organization having at heart the wel fare of the State be invited to participate. The recommendation was unanimously adopted. A further recommendation was made that the Chief of Police be requested to com pose the police detail destined for the line of march wholly from Native Sous who are members of the police force. The proceedings of the Decoration Com mittee, as reported in yesterday's issue of The CALL, were couched in a report to the Joint Committee. Its recommendations were adopted with the exception of tho one regarding the arch, which had been awarded for $23 ■'! to Mr. Swan, and this was ordered back to the committee for consideration. This was done on account of F. E. Pratt, who had submitted a design and who was not satisfied with the consideration the com mittee had granted it. The Bulletin Committee was ordered to send out invitations to interior parlors. A report by the Grand Ball Committee stated that the design by Brunt & Co. for the programmes had been found the best, and recommended that 7000 ball programmes be purchased at a cost of 17 cents each.

Litchfield had been awarded the con tract for regalias at SO 27 each.

Swasey, who was in the audience, was brought forward and spoke a few words. In view of his having been the person who moved that the Pioneers should not march with the Native Sons or partici pate in their festivities, his words were lis tened to with unusual interest He said: " 1 havo been misunderstood by your order. In my action in our society I was governed entirely by what I thought at the time to be a proper regard for the individ uality of the Pioneer. 1 have no unkind thought for the Native Sous and their efforts. I feel that all differences will be happily adjusted by Monday and that the clouds that have lowered over our two houses will be buried deep in the bosom of tho sea." His remarks were concluded with ap plause and three cheers were given by the Sons for the Pioneers. FiONbliß SOCIETY. The! r Meeting Postponed Until Next Monday Kvenlng.

THE MASCULINE GIRLS. The World Can Stand Most Anything; They Do Nowadays. * The woman of to-day is unique. Sucn a type was never known before. Now that she has decided to ride horseback man fashion, she aroused so much alarm that a society lias been formed in England for the purpose of checking her headlong career toward masculinity. The world can' stand the modern girl when she wears masculine shirts, collars, cuffs, cravats, gloves, boots, jackets, ulsters, hats, rings, umbrellas, waistcoats, and even a single glass; but when she proposes to straddle a horse there Is a sudden jerk backward, writes Blakeley Hall to the Illustrated American. The American girl has the fad, For some inscrutable reason she has a rabid desire to lay hold of her beauty, and compress it into the semblance of a brick. The purpose of her life is the abolition of the curve. The soft, graceful and symmetrical lines of the symbol of absolute beauty— the un trammt'led figure of a beautiful woman are squeezed aud forced into the rigid and wooden form of men's attire. With tho masculine clothes has come a grenadier like carriage and a manner that is every thing but feminine. In England the desire of women to ride men fashion is not a half-hearted one at nil. They claim that they are handicapped by the side-saddle in cross-country riding. They are lighter in weight and often more daring and skilful than men, but owing to the difficulty of riding a fractious or ugly horse with a pummel saddle, they are nearly always behind in the dangerous runs across country which the fox-hunters take. Women forget tho advantage of the oppo site sex in greater length of limb. Yet it is au advantage. I havo seen plucky women in the hunting countries of England, and moie notably in Ireland, who rode fiery and powerful 16-band hunters over the stilfest country with perfect ease. They were often small women and tney could not have clung on their horses' backs 10 minutes without a pummel to grip in the jumps. Boston Herald.

While passing along a street In Dps Moines the other day, n-laies the St. Joseph News, Consta ble Allen noticed a woman digging in a garden and turning up peculiar looking vegetables. After she had loaded her apron aud left the scene, the Constable went over and did a little digging on his own hook, uneanhlug several gal lons of whisky, A lot of ten-year-olds were told by a teacher In a l'resque Isle (.Me.) school the oilier day to write names of live persons of whom tliev had read. The question was a poser for most ol them, but one rose to ihe occasion and handed In a list. He was told to read Hand did sons follows: "The Lord, George Washington, liuHalo fill), Dr. liuoue, Mrs. Wlllard." Iv answer to a question, he further explained that Dr. iiooue was a man who went out West among the wild Indians. The swift-runnlug elevator is one of the curl- ' osities of the present time. The competition of builders and experts has succeeded lv acceler ating the speed until in some Instances it lias reached 500 leet a minute. A lew years ago 200 feet was considered very rapid traveling. It Is encouraging to hear from an expert that there Is not much actual danger In the modern swilt-run mug elevator. If an accident should happen the advice is to keep cool and remain still until the car reaches the end of Its journey. Then it will stop quietly of lis owu accord. Another Legal Gem. Attorney Alfred Clarke filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus In the Supreme Court yesterday in the caso of Ah Fung, who was convicted and fined in the Police Court for having a lottery ticket in las pos session. The petition contains the usual grandiloquent allusions to the American Constitution and the Declaration of Rights generally quoted in the extraordinary legal documents of this very original attorney; but the chief reason alleged in the verbose petition appears to be that the order, No. 1857, under which Ah Fong was convicted, is invalid. Society of Old Friends. The regular monthly meeting of the So ciety of Old Friends was held at Lafayette Hall, 508 Bush street, last evening. Charles 11. Gough, President; J. H. Gilmore, Sec retary. Phil nartman. Treasurer, offered his re port, showing a balance in the General Fund of 8305 15, and in the Cemetery Fund 8195 C 5. Addresses were delivered by President C. 11.

A, petition for a writ of habeas corpus was filed In the Supreme Court yesterday, on behalf ol Lizzie Williams, who was con victed in the : Superior Court of grand larceny, . and sentenced to a term of two years in the House of Correction. The petition says that her sentence is illegal, because she was i over twenty-five years of age at the time it was pronounced, and therefore she asks to be released. - ' FEDERATED TRADES. Investigating Violations jof ; the Eight-Hour Law.. The Coopers Again Prefer Charges Against Fahrman-A Change of Headquarters. Reports of Labor Unions. At the meeting of the Council of Feder ated Trades last evening President A. Fuhrman occupied the chair. In a communication the Federated Trades Assembly of Portland, Oregon, stated that it is heartily in favor of urging a renew; of the anti-Chinese agitation and in favor of pressing the Pacific Coast representatives in Congress to secure the passage of a law to enforce the national eight-hour system. The communication also stated that a tele graphic protest had been sent to Washing ton against tbe passage of the proposed Federal Election Bill. Messrs. Taylor and Deckard were seated as delegates to the council from the Mill hands' Association. A report was made by tbe committee ap pointed to visit the retail shoe-dealers, who have refused to join in the clerks' early closing movement. It was to the effect that some of the shoe-dealers are determined apparently to maintain their ground in holding out against early closing. FROM A SEWING OIRL. A communication was received, signed '.'. A Sewing Girl," requesting that the coun cil use its influence to better the condition of hundreds of sewing women in the city, who, tlic writer claimed, are oppressed. It is set forth that the working girls are doing mostly piece-work, but they are never theless called upon to work ' full hours. Those girls who run sewing-ma chines are assessed 25 cents for the power to run their machines, and they have to pay for alt repairs, besides lose their time while the repairs are being made. The girls' wages are said to be as low as those paid Chinese. The average wages for the wo men are $4 a week, while the men employed at the same work receive much higher pay. A telegram was next read from L. Cra croft, the Secretary of the Salt Lake City Federation, stating that a strike is in prog ress in that city among the plumbers, and warning all San Francisco plumbers to stay away from there. FROM iiitiTisn Columbia. A long communication was received from John llorribin. District Secretary of the Miners' and Mine-laborers' Association of Vancouver, 11. C, stating that there is no change in the lock-out in the Wellington mines, owned by Dunsmuir <fe Co. The miners are still very quiet and firm. Duns muir & Co. have served summons on tlio miners living iv their bouses to appear be fore court on the 17th of July and show cause why they do not vacate their homes. "That company," says the writer, "is not satisfied with not allowing workingmen the privilege to organize, but wants to turn men, women ami children out into the streets to freeze to death, for you must be aware that thin is a very dump climate, raining as it does most of the time, aud men, women and children cannot lay out on the wet and cold ground. We have also a temperance lodge here and some of our best union men belong to it." "The consequence is that Dunsmuir & Co. have given the lodge notice to quit the hall, which is owned by them, on the ;ilst of July. That will give you an idea of what a tyranni cal compauy we are in conflict with. * » * Don't take any notice oi auy statements made through the papers without my signature or our President's." labor DAY PARADE. On the recommendation of the committee appointed to arrange for a proper celebra tion of Labor day on September Ist, it was unanimously decided to have a parade of an imposing nature, and to hold a celebra tion in the evening in a suitable place. Delegate Gauuou of the Tanners' and Curriers' Uuiou reported the death of William Barry, a respected member of his association. In regard to the trouble with the Beulcia factory, a committee had wait ed upon the union, and proper steps will be taken to have proofs made out and a committee appointed to wait upon the Benicia firm and request that the foreman, who objects to uuion men workiug in the place, be discharged. A delegate from the Bench Carpenters reported trade good and that a mass meet ing would be held in Irish-American Hall next Tuesday night. From tbe Boot aud Shoe Makers' White Labor League prospects lor trade during the fall months were reported exceptionally good. Delegate Ark of the Coast Seamen's Union reported that the officers of the last term were re-elected and that everything on the water front is flourishing. E. W Thurman of the Typographical Union teported that L. J. Ewell, the dairy man, had refused to cease patronizing the boycotted firm of Bacon & Co., and that lie refused to recognize the rights of the coun cil to boycott Bacon & Co. The council was asked to take steps to see Mr. Ewell and argue tho matter with him. The subject was referred to the Executive Committee and Thurmnu gave notice that at the next meeting he would move to have a boycott placed on tbe dairy. NINE HOURS A DAY. Delegate Gunno of the Brewery Work men reported that the boycott on Welling ton coal bud been indorsed. The union had also decided to aid the shoe clerks to obtain shorter hours. It was reported by Delegate Springer of the Plasterers' Union that the union had purchased 100 tickets for the Iron Molders' ball and entertainment -night. Attention was also called to the fact that there are men working on the new City Ball nine hours a day, in violation of the law whicli limits the working time to eight hours. He moved that a special committee bo appointed to investigate the matter. Mr. Piuncrty amended to refer it to the Executive Committee. Peter Huberts of the Plasterers' Union said that the bricklayers, painters, stoue cutters and carpenters are working nine hours a day and are violating the law. The plasterers employed at the hall are "scabs," be said. Mr. Finnerty's amendment was lost and the original motion to appoint a committee of three was carried. Messrs. Pye, Bush nell and Thurmau were appointed to wait upon the New City Hall Commissioners iv regard to it. The retail shoe clerks reported that only one dealer is holding out against early hours, and the delegate reporting the mat ter asked that the Executive Committee wait upon the firm. This dealer is trying to form a combination to break up the clerks' movement. A motion was carried tbat the matter be referred to the Executive Committee with power to levy a boycott against all dealers who refuse to assist the clerks. It was resolved to remove tho head quarters of the federation to the shoe makers' headquarters, corner of Second and Mission streets. COOPERS' AGREEMENT. The Coopers' Union sent in a communi cation calling the attention of the council to a sworn affidavit, was inclosed, and also setting forth that Mr. Fuhrman, the agent of the Employment Bureau, has not treated some coopers in a proper man ner. It further states that there is an agree ment between the council and the journey men coopers to the effect that the first on the employment list shall be entitled to the I wtfh fc fm^^^^mhM ■ wi^^ '1 1 I V^S??\\i;'lf\ \_ I H —^ 1/ m f± * —*A- • MY \IJ^A TO 'J*enJ*U_Wk : §tmsm_^m§.

This agreement, it is stated, has been vio lated, and the coopers desired tbe permis sion of the council to manage their own employment office or else have the council appoint another man, as Mr. Fnhfman is continually causing dissatisfaction among the coopers. _ The affidavit is sworn to by Franz Her zog, who says that he went to the office of the Brewery Workmen's Union to obtain employment as a cooper in the Fredericks burg Brewery in San Jose, and that Mr. Fuhrman gave him no satisfaction, saying that for certain reasons the applicant could not have the position at San Jose. President Fuhrnian in explanation of the matter said that Herzog was not lirst on the list and that he had told Herzog that he better not go to San Jose, as there Is a prejudice against him there, because he had spoken favorably of a "scab" named Walz. Herzog then said he was glad lhat Mr. Fuhrman had told him of the matter. Mr. Fuhrmau had refused to tell Herzog who the men were that had told him about the Walz matter. A special committee of five was appointed to look after the matter and Investigate it thoroughly. Messrs. Mullen, Meanwell, Phillips, Pye and Schinitz were so ap pointed. - Molders' Union. At a meeting of the Molders' Union last night the chief subject of discussion was the ball. Favorable reports had been re ceived from all sources. The followiug do nations for the Strike Fund have been re ceived during the* week: Iron-molders' Union, Decatur, Ala.; Coast Seamen, San Francisco; Journeymen Butchers. San Francisco; Fulton Foundry, Virginia, Nev., Hod-carrier, Seattle, Typographical Union, San Francisco, 5000; from the Iron molders' ball fund of Sacramento; Iron molders of Portland; Tanners and Curriers, San Francisco ; St. Louis Pattern-makers. The union lias heard encouraging news from Detroit, and is anxious to light the strike to a winning. Friends abroad are supporting the strike in every way pos sible. Carpenters and Joiners. The carpenters and joiners had a largely attended meeting at Odd Fellows' Hall last night. There were fourteen initiations and twenty-three applications for member ship. The union bought COO tickets to the molders' ball at 50 cents eacli and destroyed them at once. They will attend individu ally, each member baying his own ticket. A proposition was made to assess every member $1 a mouth for the benefit of the striking molders. It will lie on the table for a week. Delegate P. M. Wellin will start for the Chicago convention on Wednesday. A communication was drawn by the Secretary notifying the Chief of Police that many carpenters' tools are be ing stolen. Sloldprs' Ball. The Joint Ball Committee mot on Second and Mission streets last night. They re port that everything pertaining to the ball is favorable. Provisions and liquors in abundance have been donated. They have heard from enough unions to insure the sale of 15,000 tickets to the ball. The com mittees will meet at the Pavilion at 7 o'clock to-night Longshoremen. John Cooney. a member of the Longshore men's Union, has been missing for four days. The matter. was brought tothe at tention of the union at Drew's Hall last night, but facts about his last acts are mea ger. His wife is almost distracted. Two hundred tickets were bought to the mold ers' ball. Upholsterers' High Jinks. The Upholsterers' Union held high jinks at their meeting-rooms in Music Hall last night, in commemoration of the installation of officers, which took place early in the evening. Songs, speeches, Instrumental music and general jollification were the or der of the exercises. Steamship Stevedores. The steamship stevedores met at Irish- American Hall last night and donated SIOO to the molders. They say they will attend the molders' ball 400 strong.

Portal of San Jose and George Busman of Napa have been chosen dele gates from the Grape-growers' and Wine makers' Association to the State World's Fair Convention. Regular monthly meet ings of the association will be suspended during the next three months, as the wine men will be very busy during that time. The present outlook for the wine industry Is reported to bo good. A cargo of about 200,000 gallons of Cali fornia wine was quite lately shipped to New York by the vessel M. P. Grace. The wine shipments East so far this year have been estimated at nearly 3,000,000 gallons, which is a large increase over tbat of the previous season. •_.. ' Dried wine-grapes are in great demand East, and good prices are expected this season. One commission man says he will willingly pay at least 3 cents a pound for the crop. The highest price last season for this cheap raisin product was half a cent less than this offer. One local firm has or ders for nearly 100 car-loads. NOT TO BE TEMPTED. Ah Guy Tries to Bribe a Policeman and Finds He Is Not in It. Another Chinaman finds himself in trouble for trying to do things "alle same Melican man." Ah Guy, and he seems to be a guy in fact as well as name, was ar rested yesterday morning by Officer J. F. O'Shen for peddling without a license. The Mongolian had heard that money or a "pull" would help a man out of almost any scrape. As he lacked the necessary vote to give him any show at a "pull" he tried the money dodge, but Officer O'Shea Hap pened not to bo that kind of a policeman and now Ah Guy's name ornaments the big ledger of the Southern Police Station oppo site two charges instead of one. Clioynakl Gives Bail, In the case of I. N. Choynski, editor of the Public Opinion, who was convicted of attempting to blackmail Obadiah Liver more, bail was set yesterday at $3000.
