President McKinley Wel
comed by San Franciscans.
NO -VISIT. TO STAFFORD
Public Reception Last Night in the
Market-Street 'Kerry Batl
, lag Mrs. McKinley'
; Condition.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 14. President
McKinley made bis official entry into this
city, the objective point of his tour, late
this afternoon. After being formally wel
comed by Mayor J. D. Phelan, he -was
driven through the principal streets at
tended by a military and naval escort.
Tonight he attended a public reception in
the large nave of the Market-Street Ferry
deprft. ' ,
Early this morning President McKinley
decided that, owing to Mrs. McKinley's"
Illness, he would not visit Stanford Uni
versity, as had been planned, bjit would
limit himself to the day's exercises in
Viin .itir At v?tn this afternoon he left
the Scott residence for the Valenciav
street station. Here ne met me wum
bringing the members of the Cabinet and
remainder of his party, who had fulfilled
the programme between San Jose and this
city. President McKinley was also met
here by Mayor Phelan and formally re
ceived. The President, the -members of
his Cabinet, Mayor Phelan and the re
ception committee were then taken by
special train to the Thlrd-and-Townsend-etreet
depot, where the military and na
val escort were waiting
Long before the hour set for the ar
rival of the President, Third street from
King to Harrison was a solid mass of
humanity. Within a very few minutes of
the set time the distant sound of a whistle
signaled to the waiting crowds in the
southern part of the city that the Pres
ident was approaching. Similar signals
repeated at Intervals told, of the progress
of the train along the stretch of track
between the Twenty-sixth-street station
and the Third-street depot, and, Anally,
the clanging of the engine bell announced
its presence in the railroad yards and
near the end of Its journey.
Then there was a terrible din. The
whistles of the factories) and machine
shops of the neighborhood were turned
loose, bells of the yard engines were fu
riously rung, thousands of voices joined
in the noisy welcome to the city's guest,
and a general movement among the
thickly packed humanity in the streets
added to the excitement.
A few minutes after the train arrived,
the profession1 was formed and the. march
up Third street was begun. In the rear
of a platoon of mounted police and a
battalion of patrolmen came Grand Mar
shal' WarfleTdanosn"as.:Behlna them
.. cTPrmi into line Troon A. the spe
cial escort of the President, closely fol
lowed by the veteran guard, tne tr. -.a. .,
which acted as a 'guard of honor for the
battle-flags of President McKinley's Teg
iment. A second later President McKin
ley, jecllnlng comfortably In his carriage,
was in full view of the throng. that had
waited so long to greet him. Accompany
ing him were Mayor Phelan and Irving
M Scott, the chairman of the Citizens
Executive Committee. As the carriage
was drawn out into the street and turned,
into line with the procession, cheer after
cheer rose from the multitude and was
re-echoed along the narrow thoroughfares.
With his face wreathed in a smile Presi
dent McKinley gracefully raised his
glossy high "hat and bowed in acknowl
edgement of the ovation. After the Pres
ident's carriage came those of his Cabinet,
Governor Nash, of Ohio, Governor Geer,
of Oregon, and the Ohio delegation. The
long line of carriages was followed by
4000 troops, Infantry, artillery and cav
alry from the Presidio, led by General
Shatter, and 1000 marines and sailors from
the battle-ships Iowa, Philadelphia and
Wisconsin, under the command of Ad
miral Casey.
From the moment tne iresiaeni emereu
from the depot the cheering was Intense,
but as the long parade got under way its
.force seemed- to be redoubled. Far up
the line in advance of -the vanguard the
cry was caught up. ' Block after block, In
succession, was soon faced with a surg
ing mass which broke forth Into a vocif
erous proclamation of welcome. The
hoarse thro'ats of thousands of factory
whistles were opened up In all parts of
the city. The sliding tones oi me uuia
siren, the harsh blasts of horns, the din
of a thousand devices for the produc
tion of sound, the rattle of iron-shod hoofs
of horses on the cobbles, the measured
tread of thousands of feet, the triumphal
strains of bands all were united with
the voices of the people In acclaim of
the 'first man of the Nation.
The line of march was handsomely dec
orated with Oags, bunting and evergreen.
At Van Ness avenue, President McKinley
reviewed the procession, after which he
repaired to the Scott residence for din-
ner.
At 8 o'clock tonight the President was
driven to the ferry depot. In the large
and handsomely illuminated nave of the
large building the President received a
vast crowd of people. Mayor Phelan de
livered a brief address of welcome, to
which President McKinley responded.
Entering at one" door of the nave, the
Deonle passed down the hall to the south
ern end. where President McKinley stood,
surrounded by members of his Cabinet
and other prominent visitors. The-President
did not Indulge In handshaking, but
raclously bowed as the people passed,
each one saluting him with a small flag.
The President remained at the Ferry
Building about an hour. At least 100.
000 people attended the reception, and
when the affelr was over hundreds were
In line outside the building clamoring
for admission. The entire affair, espec
ially the police arrangements were well
handled and there was not a hitch or
mishap of any kind. The only thing to
mar the entire day was the shadow of
Mrs. McKinley's illness, which hung over
Much sympathy Is everywhere expressed
for Mrs. McKinley. and the desire Is ami.
versal that her health may so improve
that she will be able, to attend some of
the social functions which have been ar
ranged in her honor. Among the hun
dreds of people who congregated about
the Scott residence, where she lies ill,
were many offering various nostrums for
her relief, whom the police found it dif
ficult to suppress. They did not ask for
money, their only desire being to aid
the President's wife, they declared.

100 PIrtkerton detectives. It Is feared
that, the bloddshed and riotous scenes or
today will be repeated with much greater
fatality. The results of today are: One
man dying, fully 20 or 30 injured, SO men
out of 150 brought here by the company
induced to desert, the trolley wires cut,
cars demolished and the police almost
powerless to control the thousands of
men patrolling the stree'ts. The company,
however, Insists that it will run its cars
with protection1, and it Is said late tonight
that 300 new non-union men are In a train
near the city waiting for the troops to
make their entry safe. Eight men have
been arrested -for rioting, two only of
whom were strikers. AtTmldnlght three
companies of the Tenth Battalion took
their stations atf three Impprtant points.
When darkness ifell this evening several
thousand weary street-car strikers and
sympathizers went to their homes, but
they were replaced by as many more
who took up the vigil to 'prevent the
United Traction Company.from running
its electric cars with no'n-unlon men
The darkness brought " some 'confidence
that 'there would be no attempt before(
morning to move cars, for the two at

ViT-rmoiJ- hlnnrtfihpd" and riot -On SUCh a
scale that the local police, aided by scores
of Deputy snerins ana jfinKenon men,
had been unable to quell the disturbance.
One man lies 'In a .hospital seriously
wounded; one of the two cars the com
Twnv nttpmntpfl to runMs In the' gutter
of a street" not two blocks from the car
house, wrecked, and the trolley wires are
cut in several places, practically crippl
ing the road. Near the" car-houses are
thousands of men, women and children,
wrought up to a pitch of frenzy that
bodes ill if- the doors of the car-house
open to let out another car. Inside the
oar-house, afraid even to look out of
the grated windows, are about 85 non
union men whom the company expects to
use in running the cars. -Early this morn
ing there were about 150 of them, but by
nightfall 65 had deserted and joined the
strikers. The men claim that they were
brought here under a misapprehension,
and they supposed they were going to
Philadelphia.
This afternoon, the police practically
admitted that they were powerless to
cope with the large crowds on the streets
if cars were run, and General Manager
McNamara immediately called upon
General Oliver, In command of the Third
Brigade for protection. He said: "We
intend to run our cars If it takes tab
entire National Guard of New York
State to protect us"."
General Oliver Issued an order assembl
ing at their armory tonight the Tenth
Battalion of Albany, comprising four
companies of the National Guard of In
fnntrv nnd the Third Slsrnal Corns
mounted. General Oliver said that he ,
would warn tne remainaer oi me xmra
Brigade to be In readiness for a call.
The riot today was full of exciting
features. At 10 o'clock two of the big car
doors 6wung open and out darted a closed
car with all the windows opened. Imme
diately there was a roar of hisses and
ghouts. Several men made an effort to
board the car, but they were kept from
doing so by the policemen, one of whom
was stationed on each car step. The car
made rapid headway and almost before
the expectant crowd realized what had
happened It was well on its way over
Quail street. It continued to the Union
Station and returned, followed most of
the way by bicyclists and people In vehi
cles. The second car did not escape. When
the doors were opened the mob surged
toward it, despite the efforts of the po
lice. The crew consisted of four men
dressed in plain clothes. As the car
swung around the curve there was a
rush for It, but the crowd was driven
back. The committee from the strikers
was -allowed to approach the men.
"Do you, want to come with us, boy3?
You won't regret It."
There was no response from any of the
men. The motorman. with his- smile gone,
waved tfiem aside, and the car was off
again. All restraint in the great crowd
broke. Through the middle of the street
men ran, with women and children ming
ling with the officers of the Taw, whose
clubs were swinging' and arms moving In
vain almost to keep people from danger.
Men stopped to pick up stones and were
overturned, to be pushed and kicked by
the others. Before the car had started
two policemen boarded it. They simply
made two extra targets for the stones
and bricks. The car had rtot gone 50 feet
before one's helmet was crushed and the
other policeman was In danger of having
more than his helmet damaged. There
was a perfect fusillade of stones. They
came from all directions, and crashed
through windows, front, rear and sides
of the car.
The men aboard dodged and jumped
from side to side to escape them, and
were successful, with the exception of
the motorman. A great ragged-edged
rock struck him full in the forehead and
he dropped to the floor of the platform.
It was a deep, ugly gash the rock left,
and the blood flowed from It In a stream.
The unfortunate man dropped Into a pool
of his own blood thar covered the entire
platform. The assistant, as soon as the
man drorjne3. erasped the brakes and
controllIngTiandle and faced the mob. A-
few feet more and the car was upon an
insurmountable barricade-fith a sud

made, and thus ended the first day's ef
forts to run cars.
Several thousand strikers and sympa
thizers charged at dusk on a wagonload
of nonunion men who .had been sent out
from the Quail-street barns to repair the
trolley wires which had been cut during
the riots of the morning. The wagon -left
the barn under the escort of 50 patrol
men, Including mounted officers, and pro
ceeded south on Quail street through a
crowd of several hundred persons. The
wagon had no sooner stopped for the
men to commence work than a wild dash
was made for them. The police were pow
erless to stop the storm of stones and
bricks showered upon the nonunion
men from vacant lots, cross streets and
housetops. The men-lay upon their faces
on the floor of the wagon and, surround
ed by the mounted men, who used their
clubs on the more -aggressive of the riot
ers, -were hurried back ta.the.barn. Two
of the nonunion men wer.e Injured. Sev
eral of the mob were 'severely clubbed.
Three -arrests were made.
The flrst'step In the" movement to quell
disorder by military force was taken to
night when the Tenth battalion and Third
SIgna'l Corps of the National Guard as
sembled at their armory. The calling out
of the troops created a profound impres
sion among the strikers and their sym
pathizers; and crowds surrounded the ar
mory. Later It was decided to order out
the Twenty-third Regiment, of Brooklyn.
Troops Start From Brooklyn.
NEW YORK. May 14. Tonight, Lieutenant-Colonel
Brady, of the Twenty
third Regiment, announced that he would
start from this city for Albany with 300
men "of his command at midnight, and
that .the remainder of the regiment
would follow on other trains as quickly
as they could be mobilized.

ters. MANILA, May 14. Detectives and the
police have broken np a band of American
brigands who have been operating In the
Province pf Pampanga. north of and not
far from. Manila. George Raymond, UU
rich Rogers and Oscar Mushmlller have
been captured, and Andrew Martin. Peter
Helz, George Muehn and two others are
still being pursued. This band committed
outrages, murder and rape at Bacalor,
Pampanga Province, and In that vicinity,

resented themselves as American d-sertcrs-and
at other times as American soldiers.
George Raymond wore the uniform of a
Captain. Raymond was formerly a po
liceman in Manila.
Since the main declared object of the
Federalists peace and American sover
eignty is nearly accomplished, the
party's future is discussed. Under the
coming government to be composed of ap
pointive officials there will be slight us
for party activity outside of the munici
pal elections. The leaders hope the party
will be considered as the semiofficial me
dium between the Government and the
masses. They are at'present endeavoring
to obtain the release of 1O0O prisoners who
were convicted of purely political ofTenses.
the contention being that they should
have the same amnesty as those who
were released when awaiting trials. The
appearance of Insular issues will quickly
result In the actual formation ot projected
opposition parties.

NEW PHILIPPINE TARIFF.
Unless Supreme Court Opinion Is Ad
verse, It Will Be Eitsctlve June 1.
NEW YORK, May 14. A Washington
dispatch to the Tribune describes the War
Department as exhausting every resource
to formulate such schedules for the netf
Philippine tariff as will be most conducive
to the United States trade with the
islands and a fair revenue for the ad
ministration of government. With this
end in view, Secretary Root has placed
the proposed tariff before Appraiser
Wakeman and his experts In this city,
who are to give it the final touches before
l"ls 'laid before the President for pro
mulgation, unless the Supreme Court, In
its decision on the insular question, ren
ders "all that has been done superfluous.
The opinion of the- court -is expected two
weeks -from yesterday, and by that time
the new tariff will be ready to be put
into operation as soon as due notice an
be given to all interests affected by its
provisions.
Last August Colonel Clarence Edwards,
in charge of the insular division ot the
"War Department, assembled a board of.
Army officers who had been In control of
customs and revenue matters to formu
