white man that feeds them whiskey
and then gets them in trouble" that
he would subscribe liberally himself.

CHRONICLE PURCHASER OF
THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15.—The
Morning Chronicle has purchased
the San Francisco Call, and it is an
nounced bj' the publishers of the
latter paper that it will suspend
publication.
The Call was started by John D.
Spreckles and has taken a promin
ent part in fighting against the
Schmitz-Ruef regime which ended in
such a fiasco. The Chronicle is own
ed by de Young who had a certain
circulation ■which through all the
competition never departed form
this conservative paper. Neither of
the papers were remarkable for
brilliant journalistic work although
both catered almost as brazenly as
the Examiner to sensationalism. The
Bulletin has been encroaching upon
the newspaper field of all Us rivals
in San Francisco on account of its
brilliant editorial and general

future He was especially attracted
by the spar from Cooper gulch, and
thinks that they will run into a
bonanza there. He is going outside
to interest capital and believes that
he will come back with ample back
ing. He has been looking over the
quartz field here with hardly an idle
day since his arrival.
