Hosts of Endeavor.

11011111111111— 2o,ooo VISITORS.

A Number of Belated Delegates Reported.
Many Enthusiastic Receptions—Pro-
gramme of the Day—Chinese
Extend Hospitality.

 

San Francisco, July 10.—’The second
day of the Christian Endeavor conven-
tion opened bright and pleasant. The
weather has been perfect since the vis-
itors began to arrive. The visiting
easterners are congratulating them-
selVes upon escaping the torrid wave
now sweeping through the central and
eastern states. As early as daylight
little parties at a dozen or twoscore
could be seen going toward the parks,
t e Cliff House and the beach, while
hundreds of others attended early

morning prayer service at the different
churches.

Long before the hour for calling the
meetings to order in Mechanics’ and
Woodward's pavilions crowds filled ev-
ery available space in the big build-
ings. . The delegates were even more
enthusiastic than on the first day of the
convention,’ having had time to recover
from the fatigue of a long journey.

Just as the Southern Pacific officials
were congratulating themselves that
they would land all the excursion
trains in this city by sundown they re—
ceived a dispatch from the Salt Lake
superintendent saying that 1,000 more
passengers, of whom he had no notifi-
cation from connecting lines, would be
turned over to the Southern Pacific.
The total number of registratibns at
headquarters is announced as nearly
25, 000, of whom about 7,000 are from
California.

Today all the young folks accom-
panying their parents were taken on
excursions to the different points of in—
terest in the city and on the bay.

Arrangements have been made by the
Chinese converts to show special atten-
tion to visiting Endeavorers. Rev. Kee
Gam, head of the Congregational Chi-
nese mission‘, promises free guides to
all Endeavorers who wish to go through
Chinatown. All the Chinese missions
of different denominations will hold re—
ceptions during the week, when all visa
itlng Endeavorers will be welcomed
and. served with refreshments in Shi-
nese style.

E3” DLULU DISAPPOINTED.

A Proposed Celebration Which Had to
Be Declared OR.

San Francisco, July lit—The steamer
City of Peking, just arrived, was a day
behind her regular time. The vessel
was detained at Honolulu on a request
from the officers of’the Hawaiian gov-
ernment, who asked that the steamer
remain in the harbor there until the
Mariposa, from San Francisco, should
arrive, on which the Hawaiians hoped
to hear that the annexation treaty had
been ratified by the United States sen-
ate and that they could call them-
selves Americans. The leaders of the
annexation party had purchased all the
firecrackers on the islands in anticipa-
tion of favorable news. When it be-
came known that the treaty had not
been acted upon, the celebration was
declared off. The Hawaiians intended
by holding the steamer to be able to
send congratulatory messages. .

The Japanese Times of recent date
devotes a long article to a discussion of
the annexation situation, over which
the entire Japanese press is greatly
wrought up. Speaking of the signing
of the annexation treaty, it says,
“Whatever may have been the cause, it
is to be deeply regretted that the step
has been taken without consulting the

.views of Japan, which is,‘ next to
America, most vitally interested in (the

status of the Hawaiian Islands."

This the Hawaiian Star considers as
“arrogance with a vengeance," and
says:. -“We have employed Japanese
as laborers, but that does ‘ not give
Japanese any ‘vital interest' in the is-
lands. This coun-try is of Anglo-Saxon
civilization, not of Asiatic. ItsJaws,
its religion, its tone of thought are
AnglmSaxon. Its affinities are with the
United States and one fails to see what
'vital interests’ Japan has here.”

THE EASTERN CRISIS.

The Embassadors _ Favor a Displw of
Naval Force For the Sultan.

Constantinople, July 10.—The embas-
sadors of the powers, having been re-
instructed by their respective govern-
ments about the dispatch of another
note to the Turkish government reiter-
ating their demand for an explicit reply
on the Greco—Turkish frontier question,
it is thought probable that they may
recommend their governments to recall
them and organize a naval demonstra—
tion, pointing out the futility of send-
ing notes which fail to impress the
porte, urging .that a demonstration is
necessary to compel Turkey to yield,
and holding that otherwise progress
toward the conclusion of peace is not
expected.

The Turkish Dardanelles squadron

‘has been ordered to make ready to pro-

ceed to the island of Crete and to take
on board provisions for three months.

All officers of that squadron are or—.

dered to rejoin their ships within three
days.

Saadi Bey has been appointed mutes-
sariff of Urfa, Asiatic Turkey. As he
is suspected of Young Turkey afiilia—
tions, this is tantamount to sending
him into exile. ‘

, IN DARKLST CHICAGO.

Masked Men R otormen, Conductors
an scengers.

. Chicago, July log—Three highwaymen
armed with revolvers held up a trolley
car on the Cicero and Proviso line and
robbed the. conductor, “m'otorm‘an and
the passengers of their. watches and
money. They escaped without being
pursued. The robbery took place just
outside of the city limits, and within
an hour five highwaymen boarded an
Archer avenue electric car at Thirty—
eighth street and chsie avenue, and
after covering the motorman and cen-
dugtor with revolvers secured $60, a
watch and revolver.

The npbbers all wore masks and did
their work so quickly that after they
had‘ disappeared the motormen and
conductors were'unable to give a de-
scription of them. Twenty detectives
were on the scene within 15 minutes
after the robbery, but no arrests were
made.

Republican Tariff Conferees Meet.

Washington, July 10.—The Republican
conferees on the tariff bill met this
morning at 9:30 in the room ofthe sen-
ate committee on finance and resumed
the work of adjusting the differences
between the two houses. The five Re-
publican conferees appointed by the
house and the four Republican conferees
appointed by the senate, together with
Senator John P. Jones of Nevada, who
has acted with. the Republicans of the
senate throughout the tariff struggle,
were present.

_ Sheep Killers at Work.
Hepner, On, July 10.—News has reach-
ed here of the killing of 150 head of
sheep belonging to Mrs. Kate Welch, on
Canyon creek. Six men wearing ma‘ts
first went to the camp, and, covering
the herder and camp tender with their
rifles, ordered them to give up their
guns, which was done at once. The

strangers then shot the sheep.

Miss Grace Stevenson Missing.

Boston, July 10.—G-race Stevenson,
25, the daughter of Mr. James Steven-
son, the millionaire real estate operator
and owner of this city, who lived with
her mother at 1478 Beacon street,
quokline, left her home on the evening
of April 26 to go on a short errand and
has never since returned. The police
are searching for her.

 

Veterans Seek Reinstatement.

Washington, July 10.—The commis-
sioner of pensions has before him the
cases of about 100 veterans dismissed
from the pension office during the last
administration and who seek reinstate-
ment. They are being carefully con:
sidered and where possible and the cir—
cumstances warrant it reinstatement
will be made.

Washington, July, 10. -—'1‘he senate
committee on commerce has decided

port on the nomination of B. H. War-

mently opposed by Senator Wellington
of Maryland. '
