The University of California will send an athletic team across the continent in May to meet the crack athletes of the Eastern colleges. It has the athletic material for a good team, it had the enthusiasm and pub- lic spirit to raise for the project a thousand dollars in twenty minutes, and it has a | hope foundea on good ground that the team it sends will win at least fourth, if not third place at the great intercollegiate field day. Arthur North, *96, will act as manager | and captain of the track and field; Fred- erick Koch, *96, will head the team. The selection of the team will lie with | the executive committee of the Athletic Association and Captain Koch and Mana- ger North. The places are as yet all open, but the make-up of the team can, with one or two exceptions, be predicted with fair accuracy. For the sprints there are available Scog- gins, Barnes and Hupp. Koch, who will go as captain, can put the shot forty feet and run 440 yards in 51 seconds. One other long-distance runner will be taken, and it lies between Colt and Hilborn. Colt can do the half in 1:59. | Hilborn is a promising candidate for both the 440-yard run and the half mile. For the field men there is first of all Edgren, who is sure of a place. He hasa record for the hammer-throw of 130 feet. vards of 16 seconds. Hoffman is good in the pole vault, but probably no contestant will be put into the event, as the Eastern record is well upon the standards, Woolse; on the broad jump, as he has now a record of 22 feet, which is also the present inter- collegiate record. The California boys should win both first and second place in this event, as Melville Dozier, freshman, jumped 22 feet 1 inch at the last field day, although this was cut down somewhat by the official reckoping. Dozier will have a surprise in store for the Eastern college cyclists, He has a present record, unofficial, of a mile which is 17 seconds ahead of the intercollegiate record. For the high jump, Patterson or Koch will be used. Patterson now holds the U. C. record of 5 feet 1134 inches, and if he can raise that to 6 feet hie can afford to meet any record-maker from the Eastern col- leges. Blake can do the mile walk in 7:12. The mile run will probably not be attempted. For the 880-yard run Koch or Hilborn should be able to break the tape in not less than and do the 440-yard run in most :512-5. Scoggins must over the 220 in 23 seconds to standfa chance in the contest. When it is remembered that the U. C. cinder track, taking five laps to the mile, is 4-5 of a second slow for the 220 and 12-5 seconds slow for the 440, it will be seen that California’s college sprinters have quite a margin for modest hope. It is now some fifteen years since ath- letics at Berkeley began to assume any im- portance. The University had very poor track facilities then, but the rivalry be- ands sure of getting first place | THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, APRIL 6, 189 FILES A NEW AFFIDAVIT Rudolf Spreckels Casts More Reflections Upon His Father. OVER THOSE PAAHAU SHARES. Proceedings to Dissolve an Injunc- tion Against the Nevada Bank. The case of Rudolf Spreckels against the Nevada Bank was continued yesterday in Judge Sanderson’s court and developed the existence of some sense of wrong still rankling in the mind of Rudolf Spreckels against his father, Claus Spreckels. The case came up on a motion to issolve a preliminary injunction issued at the in- stance of Rudolf Spreckels against the Nevada Bank to restrain it from trans- ferring certain stock to a company in Hawaii. The bank desired to transfer the stock from Rudolf’s name to the Hawaiian company in order to protect it as collateral, fearing that Rudolf’s implication in the recent troublesin Hawaii might endanger the securities. Rudolf had protested that there was no implied agreement that the stock should not be transferred from his name, and it was to the question of this implied agreement that counsel specially addressed themselves yesterday. E. P. Cole appeared for Rudolf Spreckels and Delmas & Shortridge for the Nevada Bank. J.D., A. B., Rudolf and C. A. Spreckels were in court, the two first as attorneys in fact in the transfer transaction for their father. Besides Rudolf Spreckels’ reliance upon the implied agreement, he yesterday filed a new affidavit denying in strong terms that he had been implicated in the Ha- waiian revolution, and declaring that “the contest between C. A. and Claus Spreckels and the collaterals to secure it were only transferred by Claus SprecRels to the de- fendant to enable him to have the stock of affiant changed in the books of the com- pany, and the purpose of defendant in tryiui to violate the agreement entered into between plaintiff and said Claus Spreckels is to assist, aid and abet the said Claus Spreckels in the performance of his threat publicly made that he would yet ruin flm{ destroy afliant and break him and to give said Claus Spreckels control over the corporation, That said Claus Spreck- els is trying hard to injure the credit of affiant to prevent the payment of the debt of C. A. Spreckels when it falls due.” This affidavit was introduced late in the afternoon after counsel had stated the case and testimony had been introduced by both sides, Attorney Delmas (Tened wit] a review of the circumstances leading up to the suit. He said that abont a year ago certain transactions between Claus Spreek- elsand C. A. Spreckels had led to the transfer of certain property from father to son, and in security of repayment C. A. Spreckels had pledged certain stock to his father. Rudoliph Spreckels, as part surety for his brother, had Fledged to his father 5000 shares in Paahau Plantation Com- pany stock in Hawaii. This transaction was consummated last year, being evidenced in a formal written agreement or contract. Among the securities for the repayment were the 5000 shares of Rudolf, now worth $500,000, which were transferred to the N vada Bank. Subsequenu{. about the fizst of the year C. A. Spreckels paid the first installment of his debt and was given back half_his security, including 2500 shares of the Paahau Plantation stock. Later the bank heard that Rudolf Spreckels had be- come implicated in the Hawaiian revolu- tion, and to protect itself proposed to send the remaining 2500 Paahau shares to the Hawaiian Islands to transfer them to the company_ there and thus complete the pledge. " Now Rudolf claimed he stood in danger of irreparable injury by the trans- fer. Mr. Delmas_referred to the allegation of Rudolf Spreckels that a parole agreement had been made qualifymfi the written agreement as improbable. e said it was vouched for by the plaintiff alone, while it was denied by Claus Spreckels, J. D, Spreckels (attorney-in-fact for his father) and by the Nevada Bank. It was contrar; to law and common-sense that men deal- ing in hundreds of thousands of dollars should reduce an understanding to a solemn written agreement and then qualify or annihilate it by an oral agreement. Attcrney Cole, for Rudolf Spreckels, then gave his version of theaffair. He said that on January 4, 1894, Claus Spreckels had made over property of great value to his son, C. A. Spreckels, to be paid for in two years. Rudolf Spreckels possessed 5000 shares of Paahau stock, which stood in the name of Claus Bpreckels in the books of the company. Rudolf claimed that he had put up this stock as security for his brother on condition that his father transfer the shares to him and they be retransferred to his father in blank on the understanding that they shouid not be transferred out of Rudolf’s name until after the maturity of the debt of C. A. Spreckels. This agree- ment was collateral to the written con- tract. The security was assigned to the Nevada Bank in December, 1894. Of the debt $351,750 had been paid and as much remained due in 1896, being fully secured. But in the meantime the bank threatened to send this stock, part of the security, to Hawaii _for the purpose, Mr. Cole said, of preventing Rudolf irom voting the same and put him to expense. This proposed move would alse deprive him of the right to redeem his indebtedness at any time as the contract allowed. . Delmas denied that there was any inten- "tonkw grevggt Rudolf from voting the stock. and said a proxy was at his servi ithe desireddt. o Then testimony was called as to the alleged parole agreement. Charles S, ‘Wheeler, one of the attorneys for C. A. Spreckels, and W. 8. Goodfellow, attorney for the bank, thought that such anagree- ment might have been understood after the execution of the contract. But John F. Bigelow, vice-president, and I. W. Hell- man, presi&enc of the Nevada Bank, John D. Spreckels, A. B. Spreckels and Samuel M. Shortridge, allof whom were called, were equally positive that no such a, ment bad been made, or that if it had m made, it was with the express qualification that it was dependent on expediency. “There should be no further transfers un- less it should prove necessary,” was the understanding. Then Attorney Cole argued on the law of the subject, and the case went over until this morning. INVESTIGATING DAVIS, The Bar Association Sits In Judgment On an Attorney. The grievance committee of the Bar As- tween it and the Olympic Club was so keen as to brln[; out some good results. A dual league between Stanford and the State Uniyersity was formed in 98, and in the championship games the Palo Alto athletes made 31 points to their oppo- nents’ 95. Blake, Patterson and Koch are still in the race. Scoggins and Hupp take the place of Mays in '03. Edgren takes up Mor- row’s work and throws the hammer 15 feet farther. Woolsey raises the broad jump to 22 feet. In 94 the coast championship games gave Palo Alto 36 to Berkeley’s 90; a count within two points of the prediction of the Berkeley track captain, North. Koch has made the half in 2:051-5; Patterson the bigh jump to 5 feet 10} inches; Koch the shot-put to 37 feet 6inches; Kdgren the hammer throw to 117 feet. . In the fall of "94 Patterson jumped an inch higher, Koch tossed the shot 40 feet 2 the committee, five resolutions setting inches, Edgren Knl the hammer 127 feet, and Blake §roug t the mile walk close to 7 minutes, sociation is actively investigating the charges made against Henry H. Davis, the attorney who is accused of having com- bined with Millspaugh, the late claims agent of the Southern Pacific, to defraud clients who had claims against that com- pany. The grievance committee consists of Judge Myrick, C. W. Cross, Arthur Rodgers, Seldon Kellogg and W.T. Her- rin. “It is our duty,” said Judge Myrick, president of the committee, yesterday, *‘to investigate any charges that are made and report the result of our investi thgol!u Association. eirlonlianad ‘‘1f our report should be of such a nature as to decide the Bar Association to prose- cute, then the matter would be made pub- lic, but for the present the strictest secrecy is being o} as to the result of our investigations. “It is easy to see why no statements shoul! made in the matter at ent s of proceedings. “It might be very injurious to the char- acter of a person whose actions were un- dergoing investigation at the hands of the grievance committee if opinions were passed for publication before the result of the investigation has been made known to the Bar Association and they had passed upon them. L “If when ourreport is submitted they de- cide to present the matter, a committee will be appointed to bring disbarment pro- ceedings in the courts, and the names of its members will not be withheld from the public, and we have no desire to judge any one prematurely,” “My connection with the matter ended when I made the chsrp}:s against Henry H. Davis that were published in the CaLy,” said C. J. Stilwell. ‘At present the grievance committee is investigating those charges, but their investigations are con- ducted with the utmost secrecy. All T know about them is that I corroborated the testimony of my published letter last Thursday afternoon.” SENDING OUT DESORIPTIONS. Efforts Being Made by the Police to 3 Locate Williams. Chief of Police Crowley yesterday sent out several hundred postal cards through the State regarding Henry Williams, alias Brady, who is supposed to be the mur- derer of Sheriff Bogard of Tehama County at the hold-up of the Southern: Pacific train near Marysville. On eaclf’ postal card was a_ picture of Williams and the following description, taken at San Quen- tin Prison in July, 1892: Henry Williams, irom Amador County, Cal.

Favors Meters. A meeting of the Water Committee was held last evening, which began its session by deciding to postpone action es to pre- paring rates until another time, as one of the members—Mr. Hobbs—was absent. M. M. Kellogg, attorney, and George E. Booker, bookkeeper for the Spring Valley Water Company, were present, and took a prominent part in the de- sultory discussion, not so much of rates as of method, that took place. Supervisor Taylor said that the business that the committee had to do was to bring the water rates into conformity with law— that is, make them uniform. He held that the sliding scale now in force was contrary to law aud /if it was taken to the Supreme Court would not be sustained. It was clearly class legislation and the poor ratepayer got the worst of it. He was strongly in favor of a uniform rate, and also of the meter s{]stem under which peo- ple paid for what they got and no more. Supervisor Dimond also favored the uni- form rate. Messrs. Kellogg and Booker thought a uniform rate that would uot be unjust to the water company would be prohibitory to the manufacturers who must use such large quantities. Then Mr. Taylor explained what he has evidently becn “studying out and holding in reserve for some time. He thought the city at large should be made to pay at least half of the water bill, and then the uniform rate could be fixed so low that the r man could afford to use all the water e wanted ata much lower costthan is charged now. As preliminary to this }:Inn, which could not be established now, he favored raising the city hydrant rate to $25, instead of $2 50, as now. : Todo this, a tax levy of 20 cents would have to be made, which would create a fund of $640,000. The objection offered by the representa- tives of the water company to the plan of the city assuming the burden was that it now owes the water company sums_which the latter cannot collect, and they did n want to increase the risk. With a special fund raised in this way, however, they ad- mitted that the objection would be over come. —_———— Dr. Moffatt, the distinguished mission- ary and father-in-law of Dr. Livingstone, once preached a long sermon to a tribe in the interior of Africa.
