THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SAYIRDAY, MAY 18, 1895. 11 LATEST OAKLAND NEWS, « e Bicycle-Dealers Threaten Vigorous Rent-Rate War. a COULD NOT AGREE ON PRICES. Telephone Wires on Eighth-Street Bridge May Be Cut Down by the City. The bicycle-dealers of Oakland are at outs and also at war over the question of renting wheels; and the hearts of those who are not fortunate . enough to possess mounts of their own are glad thereat. The freq v with which some of the agencies hdve lost wheels lately ) the operations. of bicycle-thieves their business unprofitable, and a movement was started some days ago to organizée for mutual :protection and to ise the prices at which bicycles were rented. - Heretofore the uniform price has been 25 cents per hour, with a substantial rebate for several hours’ use. It was proposed to' raise the rate to 50 cents for the first hour and 25.cents for each additional hour. The guestion of - the price of bicycle re- pairs was alsodiscussed and uniform rates were fixed, to which the various deaters were asked to agree. Inorder to make the matter binding, it was proposed to organ- ize and have-€ach-dealer put up a forfeit 25 for the faithful carrying out of the agreement. ‘All went well until some’ of the dealers e business- in the renting line is very began to figure on how many wheels lie idle in_the shop-should the price for the first -hour be fixed at 50 cents. Then came a spiit, and the present indica- tions are that instead of an Increase in the t-of wheels the Yri(‘e will go doiwn to 10 e the war lasts. tkner, whose' renting de- partme ns twice as many wheelsas any other ar establishment in town, made the first breach in the combination. When the ‘committee -from the dealers called on-him yesterday to get his signa- ture to the agre¢ment he told them that he proposed to conduct his business according to his own ideas, and charge whatever he deemed best for his own interests. After a somewhat heated discussion the committee intimated that 2 cut to 10 cents er hour might bring him into the fold, ut he was firm, and the formal declara- tion of hostilities is looked for at any time. **Hundreds of people will ride at 25 cents per_hour, where tens will pay 50 cents,” said Mr. Faulkner, ““and I cannot afford to let my wheels, in-which I have a large amount invested, rust in the shop to please a few dealers who have so few wheels that they are likely to-rent them even at the ed price.” I shall mieetany cut that is eand stay in the fight as long as any a town which boasts of as many svbeelmen as Oakland, whose riders are imbereéd by thousands, the difference of 1ion among the dealers will mean much to the cycling public, particularly should the matter. resialt ina cutin the price of new wheels, which might possibly occur.

K. PEIRsoL, City Attorney. Upon receipt of this message the Super- intendent began preparations for the cut- ting and removing of the wires. In the meantime Président Allman had heard of the proposed raid on the com- any’s wires and started for Oakland post haste to head it off. 2 He called on the Superintendent, and finding that that official was merely acting under orders called on the members of the Board of Public Works. He was informed that if the company possessed a franchise the wires were not in any danger, but that unless he produced a Proper authority they must come down, e assured the board that he could pro- duce the necessary papers and Mr. Harrl. son was instructed to suspend operations until t6-day to give the. board a chance to examine into the matter. Fire in the City Jail. Owing to the negligence of the night man on the desk at the City Prison, the City Hall was in ereat danger of being burned duringthe smalt hours of yester- day morning.” Bert Lamar and Gus Deme were locked up on a charge of drunkenness during the night, and after having spent several hours in making the night hideous, .concluded to vary the monotony of their incarceration by building a fire in the cor- ridor.

About fifty of the representative men of Berkeley assembled at the Holmes Free Library building on Thursday evening for the purpose of forming an organization for the suppression of the saloon. ‘W. H. McDougall presided over the meeting and after transacting some pre- liminary business he said: “In many walya the cause of temperance seems to have lost ground. There is only one-sixth of the area of the country now covered by prohibition where there was one-third orgy years ago, and much more liquor is consumed than then; but to mnnmxhlanuithen }:’oiflts l;‘eu very mn';y most encouraging an opeful signs, the greatest being an increased sentiment against the saloon.” r. McDougall was followed by Rev. Dr. Ketchum and Dr. Bentley, who referred to the relative positions of that part of the town affected by the mile-limit law. Re- marks were also made by Mrs. Mary Smith, Mrs. Marquand, Mrs. Ber{ézn Messrs. 0. G. | May, H. H, Dobbins, H. E. Monser and C, B. %nylor. At the close of the addresses measures were taken to effect a permanent organiza- tion under the name of “‘The Berkelcy Council for the Suppression of the Saloon." A nominating committe consisting of H. A. Ketchum, Rev. 0. G. May, Judze Ber- gen, J. A, Foster and Charles Dunning was appointed, who shall report at the meeting for next Thursday.

This event marks the epoch of a new era in Alameda. The population turned out en masse to do honor to the oc- casion, which was not marred by any un- toward incident, The Alameda Fire Department was the attraction of the parade and excited gen- eral comment and admiration. Its appar- atus was a moving exhibition of the choic- est cullings from Alameda gardens. The fire laddies worked late Wednesday night that their apparatus might look the pret- tiest and they have the satisfaction of knowing that their efforts were appreciated. Tbef were complimented very highly by the ladies. One of the documents placed in the cor- | nerstone receptacle was an interesting let- ter written by Gideon Auginbaugh, the first settler io what is now Alameda. He wrote of the times between 1850-54. He crossed the bay in a Whitehall boat in September, 1850, when communication to San Francisco was by whaleboat belong- ing to Solomon & Smith. A n the fall of 1851 it was purchased from the Peraltas. J. F. Stratton, afterward United States Surveyor-General, made the first survey in the southeastern portion of the town, making the lots 33:4x100 feet, For the first few months a lot was offered to every man that would build a house thereon. To-day this same property is worth §250 per front foot. Another imipomnt document was a manuscript of old-time recollections by A. 8. Barber, a pioneer of 1849, who re- qfived to Alameda in 1853 from Marys- ville. Mr. Ely was the first Postmaster of Ala- meda and was succeeded by John J. Toy, who conducted a general store. In those days there was no mail and the mail pouch was delivered by the San Francisco Post- master to the accommodating citizen who called for it. Mr. Barber was Postmaster for Alameda from 1855 to 1889, having been retained by the various administrations. Children’s Day.

The Side Tracks Assessed Were Included by the Equalization Board. E. B. Ryan, tax agent of the Southern Pacific Company, pays no attention to the great increase in assessments made on the railroad property in Oakland by Assessor Dalton of Alameda County. He holds that Dalton has exceeded his powers in taxing side tracks in the Oakland yards. Mr. Dalton’s zeal, it seems, has already created complications with the State Board of Equalization, for when the assessments of Alameda County are submitted to that body there will be a Central Pacific pro- test which must receive consideration. The fact is that the miles of the side tracks assessed by Dalton in Oakland are, under the constitution of California, included in the State assessment, and consequently cannot be taxed by the county and State at the same time. “The constitution states very plainly,” said Mr. Ryan yesterday, “that the ‘fran- chise, roadway, roadbed, rails and rolling stock of all railroads operated in more than one county in this State shall be as- sessed by the State Board of Equalization,’ Now, the railway in Oakland is the Cen- tral Pacific, which operates in more than Alameda County, and therefore its rails and roadbed can be assessed only by the State Board. 7 “In 1894 there were 746 miles of Central Pacific track in California, and we were assessed for 858.77 miles, which included the side tracks, all of which are taken into account by the State Board. The question asked is: “What is the total length of your road in California—of side and main and other tracks reduced to a siillgle track? “I don’t believe that . Dalton in- tended to do an injustice to our company, but he has a crystallized belief that hereto- fore the company was not assessed in pro- portion to the property of individuals, which was a great error. It must not be upposed that the State Board of Equal- ization would place o great a value on the Southern Pacific Railroad running through Kern or San Diego_counties, mile for mile, as it would place in San Francisco. For instance, there are some miles of Southern Pacific road in San Francisco assessed as high as $200,000 a mile. So it is with the Central Pacific in_Oakland, where the average value a mile is $17,406. The State Board in getting the value generally of the Central Pacific road would go_as high as §$50,000 & mile in Oazkland, graduating the value as they leave centers of population. And yet there is no difference between counties when the assessment s distribu- ted prorata. Each county gets its share mile for mile on the total assessment with regard to the assessed values. This is un- der the new constitution, and it virtually makes San Francisco and Oakland support other counties. Every piece of track of the Central Pa- cific placed end to end and measured in one continuous line has been assessed by the State Board. How can Mr. Dalton assess portions thereof and believe that Alameda County can collect the tax?"’ The Railroad Commissioners will meet next Thursday, and in all probability will then pass a resolution to go over the State on a tour of inspection of all railroads in California. K. H. Wade, general manager of the Southern California Railway, and Jobn J. Byrne, general passenger agenr of the At- lantic and Pacific and Southern California railways, arrived here yesterday from Los Angeles to look over the ground, with an eye to business for the Santa Fe system. POVERTY'S WAVE, It Has Reached the Receiving Hospital, and the Effects May Be Disastrous. The wave of poverty which has swept over the affairs of the City government owing to the upheaval of bankruptey in the various funds of the municipal treas- ury has at last lapped over the threshold ofthe City Receiving Hospital and startled the surgeons. In fact, unless some kind of relief comes within the next few.days, the doors of the institution may just as well be closed. % The stock of drugs in the place is run- ning rather low, but that fact does not cause Police Surgeon Somers such alarm as the fact that the supply of bandages is well nigh exhausted. “When I found this Somers last night, “I got a requisition for a new lot, and sent it down to the whole- sale tirm from whom we have always pur- chased them to be filled. The answer came back that the requisition would not be filled, as under the existing monetary condition of City affairs there was no grnspect of payment. Now, see the con- ition we are in. There is probably a suf- ficient supply of bandages on hafd to last till Monday, but what then? ‘It is not the small quantity of drugs which bothers us,” continued Dr. Somers, “but the prospect of a complete lack of bandages. In nearly all the cases which are treated in the hospital bandages are what we require. Contusions, sgnins, in fact all sorts of injuries require bandages, and if we have not got them what are we oing to do with the cases which are rought to us? Idon’t see any prospect of getting anything when our requisitions are refused, and that is whf unless we get some relief in our trouble I think the doors just might as well be closed."” —————— OUT FROM EAR TO EAR. Frank Robinson’s Second Attempt to End His Life With a Razor. Frank Robinson slashed his throat from ear to ear early Friday morning, cut another big gash in the left side of his throat, severed his windpipe and gullet, cut his arm nearly off, remained uncon- scious and uncared-for nearly six hours, and is alive to-day. What is more, Dr, Johnson, the Oakland city physician, ex- pects him to recover. A few weeks ago he took morphine in sufficient quantity to kill any ordina human bel%g, but{m slept it ofi}: 7 He is foreman of the car-cleaning depart- ment of the Southern Pacific at the West Oakland yards, and his wife has left him. He lives at 768 Pine street, West Oakland, When his wife left him she took one girl with her, leaving a babe and a little girl for him to look after. He stayed out late Thursday night, not returning until after 1 0’clock in the morn- ing. Then he locked himself in his room and began his work of self-butchery. It was 7 o'clock in the morning when he awoke in the wrong world. He was faint and weak and his clothes were stiff and BORDEN VEAGLE Brand| Has No Equal SOLD SVERYWHERE | European plan. cold upon him from the clotted blood, but he'wu hungry and thirsty, and so he cried out. ‘When seen last evening Robinson said he guessed he wouldn’t try to kill himself again. There is a strong possibility that his time may come along in a day or two as u result of his wounds, but he seems to think that he will recover, and the doctor agrees with him. B Refused to Pay Alimony. In the divorce case of Mary E.
