WAR. Significant Result of a Recent Private Meeting. e bitter rivalry that has existed be- n the Contra Costa and ‘the new Din- gee water companies has caused such a = decrease in their respective incomes each is seeking a method by which e competition can be terminated. Some ¢ ago a private meeting was held be- en the City Council and President ee of the new company. The propo- nade at that time has leaked was that the city lease the works and pay the company 5 per s investment. The matter was to the proper committee and a re- as not yet been made. The com- ce is aleo considering the advisabili ie city owning its own water plant. The question now is, will it be more profit- e for either company to sell out to the ity or to sell out to each other. It is known that in numerous instances water has been supplied to houses at far less than the rates fixed by the Council, in icts where both companies have This cutting of rates has pro- ceededso far that there are cases where the rateis less than one-third of what it was before the new company commenced drawing from its Alvarado plant last win- ter. While the presidents of both compa- nies assert that there is no transaction afoot looking to a consolidation ora mu- tual restoration of rates, the fact that their public hos cc ty to each other, through the 3 ss, has suddenly ceased, is re- ied as I}.roof that a glad-hand period is The special Council committee r consists of Messrs. Towle, Dow iel, and as some are now on a vacation and others are going shortly a report will not be presented for several THE GREAT WATER-FRONT CASE. Judge Ogden’s Decision Will Be Made Public To-Day. The decision in the case of the city of kiand against the Water-front Com- 7ill be rendered by Judge Ogden to- pon this decision depends the ap- bat wiil most certainly be taken to the United States Bupreme Court. The suit in another form was recently passed upon by the highest tribunal, which declared that as the Supreme Court was not a court of original jurisdiction it could only decide the case on appeal. This appeal wiil be taken by the losing party in the decision to be rendered to-day. Judge Ogden has given two weeks of his vacation to prepare the opinion, which will be a very exhaustive one. The trial was begun May 22, 1894, and contrnued from time to ‘time. Evidence was con- cluded on November 21, and arguments ing last three weeks were commenced on February . The entire history of the water- front from its transfer to Carpentier and bis associates, with deeds, maps and tax receipts, is included in the record, which is the bulkiest ever made up in this county. @raimmnortance of the suit to Oakland had been stolen by some pick- | Teady to receive pupils at | In| warded to this City for | cannot be overestimated. It involves the ownership of eleven miles of water front and practically decides the question of the city’s progress. During the forty years of its alleged ownership by the railroad com- any nothing has been done in the way of improvement, but everything has been done to prevent any outside parties from acquiring ownership or making improve- ments. All manner of speculation has heen made regarding the nature of Judge Ogden’s decision, but nothing authentic has been given out. JOKED WITH THE JUDGE. A Smart Conversation With a Man of Shaky Mind. Three people with very strange hallu- cinations were examined yesterday on charges of insanity. Oneof them got off a good joke on Judge Ellsworth that caused his Honor to hesitate for a mo- ment as to whether the suspect was insane or not. A. Rowe was the first unfortunate, and his landlady testified that whenever he answered a question he put his reply into ve! and on this ground she considered him insane. He also chased her along the ball, and prayed noisily. Deputy Sheriff White said that when he arrested the man he refused lodgn'e his name, and said he acknowledged no authority but that of his God. Then Judge Ellsworth took Rowe in hand. “g’hat is your name ?"’ ‘““Here it is on this ring, Judge; ArDow. Mr. At Dow.” oy d *‘Let me see the ring,” said the Judge. _“Noone must touch it. It was made eighteen years ago from a piece of gold that had the word ‘God’ on it, and it is sacred.” *‘Did you see the word ‘God’ upon it?” _ *“Tdid—I made the ring myself. I made it out of a twenty-dollar gold piece.” “I thought you said it was made out of a piece of gold with ‘God’ upon it,” said the Judge. Rowe smiled at the Judge and said gravely, ‘“Well, are not the words, ‘In God we trust,’ on every twenty ?” Judge Elisworth laughed atthe joke and doubted if Rowe’s mind was far wrong after all. At a later examiunation Rowe made all manner of strange statements and said that his father owned the Palace and a few other pieces of property in San Francisco and satisfied the Judge that he would be better at Agnews than in the world of rational beings and the order was made. Mrs. Eliza Scott is 8 middle-aged woman who has attempted for several weeks to live without eatin She has been cooking at several boarding-houses in West Oak- land, and is rational on all subjects save that of food. She was adjudged to be in- sane and was ordered to be sent to an asy- Inm. A dispatch was received yesterday | from a relative at Chicago, asking that | Mrs. Scott be sent to him. She will go | there as soon as the expense of the journey | is received. | The third unfortunate was John Brad- | bent, who has been hanging around the free reading-room and attempting by lan- gnage and contortions to impress lady vis- itors with his affection for them. Lfe be- | came too much of & nuisance to be tol- erated, so he was arrested and will be taken to an asylum. THE BOARD OF EDUCATION. Mayor Davie’s Communication Was | Laid on the Table. Mayor Davie was most definitely ignored by the Board of Education last night. He | sent a communication to the board request- ing that the blank requisitions to be used for the purchase of supplies for the depart- ment be so printed that they will bear evidence that the same when filled out must be approved by the Mayor, as pro- vided in ordinance No. 1665, approved February 23, 1895. “I think it is an unwarrantable piece of interference,’”’ exclaimed Director Clement. | “I moye that 1t be placed on file. The | Council has no control over us.”’ Director Moody said he was not a law- yer ana he wanted to know the exact reia- tion of the board to the various depart- ments of the city. He thought laying the communication on the table was not treating it with proper respect. Director McMullen did not see any cause of com- plaint on account_of the communication. He said the records of the board should be { open to the public. Director Stark did | not like the idea of the Mayor coming in and seeing every requisition. “If the Mayor wants to amuse himself,” said Di- rector Friend, “by sending in communica- tions let bim send them in. We can refer | them to a committee. I would not get | mad about it.” Director Reed said that because board would not vacate the rooms Mayor persisted in annoying them. He did not believe in being annoyed any longer. If throwing the communication out of the window would stop the annoy- ance it should be dome. Director Myra Knox remarked that it was placing the board in a very undignified position. The letter was laid on the table by the follow- ing vote: Ayes—Clement, Knox, Stark, Reed, Friend, Moody and Evans; noes— McMullan and Ford. The Finance Committee submitted its requisition for the coming year. It will require $225,364 to run the department for a year. The State’s appropriation will be $115,000, the county will supply $62,000, non-resident pupils will pay $700, leaving $47,644 to be provided by the city. the the STILL HANGING FIRE. None of the Big Corporations Have Asked for Reduced Assessments. The expected petitions of the big corpora- tions to have the assessment on their property reduced by the County Board of Equalization have not yet been filed. At yesterday’s meeting of the board the Pied- i mont Cable Company asked that its assess- ment be reduced from $272,030 to $82,000. The petitioner, President C. R. Bishop, stated that previous to November, 1893, the property had been unproductive and had not earned enough tu pay operating ex- s and that up to March of this year ceipts had been $25,000 less than the expenses. The road for 4 long time was in the hands of a receiver and was recently sold to Bishop for $82,000, who declares it is not worth more. Mr. Bishop was the receiver of the road and bought it in at Sheriff’s sale on behalf of the bondholders. The fortunes of the l:log\'c brothers and a large portion of the Blair estate were sunk in the road, which was the first cable 10ad in this City. Itis now operated mostly by electricity, and Assessor Dalton says'the petition is ridicu- lous and that his valuation of the property 1s£rop0munau-]_v just, compared with the other companies. Edson ¥. Adams presented a petition yesterday afternoon asking for a reduction on the land lying north of Lake Merritt. One_ plat consisting of 152 acres is assessed for $456,000. Mr. Adams says it is only worth $272,000. Another application was made for a plat of fourteen acres assessed. for $42,000, which the petitioner asks be reduced to $28,000. The protest will be considered to-morrow morring. Actor Harris Is Safe. Rey. J. H. W. Harris. actor, lay-reader, watch-club operator, chiropodist, philan- thropist and reformer, has turned up in New York. Some friends of Mr. Harris who live in Oakland heard from him yes- terday, and_the actor states that he is en- joying life in the Empire City and has no immediate desire to come to his home in Oakland, where he has a wife and family. Harris disappeared from San Francisco a few days ago, and at the same time $1000 belongiag to 8 man named Humpnrey, who resides in Alameda, disappeared also, Harris was to form a theatrical company, but after the money was put up, the man> ager, according to Humphrey, disap- peared. Few careers bave been more romantic or erratic than that of Harris, who has re- sided here for several years. He wasal- ways fortunate while working with his wits, and although he always left a crowd of dissatisfied people every time he changed his address he always managed to avoid trouble. A few months ?Q he was arrested for cheating his landlady and was locked up for a few days, but he beav the case on a technicality and the land- lady was out nearly $400. His recent ven- ture caused no surprise to his friends here. A Colima Romance Exploded. A romance regarding the death of Pro- fessor Harold Whiting of Berkeley, on the ill-fated steamer Colima, has been ex- loded by Public Administrator Knight. Mr. Knight is investigating the affairs of the deceased professor, and has been in- formed that he leit no will. When the news of the wreck was first pub- lished a story was printed to the effect that Professor Whiting had a pre- monition of a possible disasier and had made a will before embarking on the fatal voyage, that he had mailed to his legal représentatives in_the East. Inquiry has been made, and it is learned that the East- ern lawyers had no knowledee of the exist- ence of any will. Administrator Knight is almost satistied that the professor left no will, and will shortly apply for letters of administration upon the estate. It is un- derstood that Professor Whiting has po relatives here, but that he has brothers living in Massachusetts. There Were Two Mrs, Hoods. Mrs. Bessie Hood, who declares that she is the widow of the late Dr. Hood of Hay- wards, has filed a petition to have the de- cree of distribution set aside, and the hear- ingis set for next Monday. Dr. Hood married Effie Hassler at Haywards and she died before him. Max Popper is the executor of Dr. Hood’s estate, which was 1aft to A. J. Hassler, a brother of Mrs. Hood, and he secured letters and 2 decree of distribution. Then the Eastern widow stepped to the front, and in behalf of her- self and a minor child demands the estate. She says she can produce the marriage certificate which will prove her claim. The estate is worth about $7000. Another Human Brute. Samuel Stares was 1 the Police Court yesterday morning to answer charges of drunkenness and disorderly conduct. On Sunday afternoon Stares, who is employed on a piledriver on the estuary, and who liyes on the old steamer Contra Costa with his wife, asked her for some money. She refused, and he tied a rope around her and threw her into the water. Then he walked back and forth on the deck pulling his wife through the water. When she was about suffocated he hanled her on ‘board. Policeman Clark went off to the steamer and arrested Stares. When his case was called yesterday he wanted an attorney, and the matter was continued one day. His wife refuses to place any charge against him, Davie Stopped His Salary. City Wharfinger C. B. Rutherford filed a suit against the city yesterday for three months’ salary. Mayor Davie claims that the appointment of Rutherford is illegal and has directed the Auditor to refuse to draw the warrants for his salary. The suit is made necessary by the contention of the Mayor that the wharves are under the control of the Board of Works and not the Council. As Rutherford was appointed by the Council the Mayor declares the ap- pointment illegal. The decision in the case will settle a conflict of jurisdiction that will be often revived, now that the majority of the Board of Works are op- posed to the Mayor. Bonds Will Mature Soon. An ordinance was passed by the City Council authorizing the submission to the people of the proposition to refund $140,000 worth of mumicipal bonds that will soon mature. The election will be held August 31. Two resolutions wers adopted making appropriations for con- necting the boulevard around Lake Mer- ritt with Lake Shore avenue at Twelfth street. About $2500 is required to com- plete this section of the boulevard. Cut Down His Bill. Dr. W. F. McNutt of San Francisco had a claim for $1000 against the estate of the late E. L.G. Steele for an operation per- formed upon the dead capitalist some time prior _to his death. The claim was pre- sented to the widow, who is the executrix of the estate, and she cut off §200. In its mutilated condition Judge Ogden allowed the claim. The operation was for trephin- ing the skull. LAPIGNE'S TRANSAOTIONS. Judge Campbell Will Decide Whether a Crime Was Committed. The case of John Lapigne, charged with swindling an old man, Jean Louis Ader, out of nearly $5000, came up before Judge Campbell yesterday. The particular trans- action under review was the purchase of a lodging-hounse on Bush street. After hearing the testimony of Attorney Strauss, who was appointed guardian for the old man, it was agreed between Attor- ney Ruef, the special prosecutor, and At- torney Mack for the defendant, to submit a statement of facts to the Judge from which be will day as to whether or not a crime has been committed, and if in the affirmative what the crime is—grand larceny, embezzlement or obtaining money by false pretenses. LATENEWS FROM ALAMEDA A Suspicious Fire Destroys the Property of Charles S. Neal. Petition for the Reinstatement of Principal Arthur Mock. Realty. The Fire Department was called out yes- terday afternoon for a fire at the building on the corner of Bay street and Kings ave- nue, occupied by Charles S. Neal as a barn. The structure was an old one, and as the fire had gained good headway before the alarm was sounded the department conld do little to check the flames. The loss will be about $250. It was generally reported that the fire was of incendiary origin, the blame being fixed on Thomas Kelley, a young roust- about at West End. Nurseryman Ros- marin saw a young man run away from the direction of the fire before the blaze was seen, and boys in the vicinity corrobo- rated this by stating that young Keiley had et fire to the grass. The police were quick to actand took the suspect into custody pending an inves- tigation. Young Kelley had the appear- ance of having been on a debauch, and his act is probably the result of recklessness and not criminal intent. Petitions for Improvements. Realty-ownersand taxpayers to the num- ber of sixteen, including the Alameda and Oakland Electric Railway Company, A. R. Denke and William Holtz, have petitioned the City Trustees to place a fire plug in the district of Pacific and Eagle avenues and Webster street. Daniel J. McCarthy, owning forty-five feet frontage on Taylor avenue, has pe- titioned the Trustees to order the grading, curbing and macadamizing of that avenue between Seventh and Eighth streets. ‘Want Mock Reinstated. The Board of Education will be presented with a petition this evening signed b fifty-eight of the sixtipamms having chil- dren attending the Everett School asking for the reinstatement of Arthur Mock as princlYal. Mr. Mock was deposed at the annual election of teachers and no cause for his dismissal was given. Committed Battery on His Wife. Janitor Charles Lambert was tried by & jury yesterday for battery committed on is wife on the 1st inst., and baving been found guilty was sentenced to the County Jail for thirty days. Lambert spent four- teen days in jail waiting for trial, and has spent seve: short vacations in the Sheriff’s hostelry. \ Fell Into the Bay. Arthur Bjornstod of San Francisco, who iriends at 647 Taylor avenue, is visitini lost his ialmce and fell into the water | from the narrow-gauge mole yesterday while fishing. After sinking twice he managed to catch hold of a pile, which he held on to until rescued by a car-cleaner. ive his decision on Satur- | THE DRAMA OF RELIGION, Salvationists Will in Future Hold the Boards in the ' People’s Theater. THE ARMY TAKES A LEASE. The New Barracks Is Situated in the Center of the Business Portion of Oakland. The Oakland corps of the Salvation Army leased the People’s Theater yester- dey, and ina few days the large house hitherto devoted to the drama will be used in the service of God. The theater is sit- uated in the business center of thecity, and up to a month ago has been run as a cheap playhouse. The news that the Sal- vation Army has captured the builaing will be a surprise to all the merchants in the neighborhood, and will be welcome news to them as they recently expressed a desire to assist any enterprise that would bring back the old crowds to Twelfth and ‘Washington streets. Whether the Salva- tion Army is the kind of enterprise that is desired remains to be seen. The lease held by the army to the Castle on Eighth street expires next No- vember, and there has been a desire on the part of the residents in that section to prevent a renewal beini granted. As the training garrison for the army is at the castle it was imperative that a new build- ing be secareti that couldh in event of a non-renewal, be used for both training and worship. The People’s Theater is large enongh for all purposes. To a moderate extent this new move of the Salvationists is backed by the churches in the center of Oakland, The expenses are too great for the army to bear at pres- ent, and rather thar see s0 good an oppor- tunity to lease & permanent hall passan appeal was made to the Christian public at large. Several small subscriptions toward the rent have been promised, and it is expected that more will be received when it is known that the army has closed the deal. = “We have long been looking for a large hall in the center of the town,” said En- sign Wood yesterday, “and now we have it. Although not very anxious toleave our castle, we are not certain of a renewal of our lease, although we are the owners of the large building upon it, “It is a great responsibilily, the leasing of the People’s Theater, but I have no doubt of the future. While anxious to work in a locality offering such great op- portunities as does the theater it was necessary that we look to the financial side of the matter. I am not at liberty just now to say how much or what churches have helped us, but we have several romises and I am sure that others will oin us in our new move. It is. impossible to find a better locality, and the large crowd that gathers nightly in that neigh- borhood is just the crowd we want. If we are forced to we shall eventually move our training home up there, but that will not be for the present. Iam not able just now to say when we shall open, but no time will be wasted, and when we do open every one in Oakland will know it.”” The theater is only two_blocks from the police station, and is the busiest corner in Oakland. LATEST BERKELEY ITEMS, Location of the New Power- house of the Electric Road. A Cyclist’'s Mishap — Forthcoming Sale for Delinquent Taxes. Jack Howard, an ambitious cyclist, while attempting to beat the local train from Dwight way to Berkeley station yesterday morning, fell from his wheel and was con- siderably bruised about the face and head. He kept up with the train very well for about two blocks, but his tire having be- come punctured while his speed was at its highest, he was thrown to the ground, smashing his machine and receiving a hard shaking up. New Power-House. The new power-house of the local electric- car line, which will be in operation within a few weeks, will be located at the foot of University avenue, between Third and Fourth streets. A new track will be laid in the center of University avenue, but the old one at the side of the street will be used until the new line shall have been finished. A branch line will be construsted on Hopkins street, in which the old rails will be utilized. A Berkeley Girl’s Success. Miss Maud Packard, a graduate of the Berkeley High School in the class of 94, will soon return to Berkeley to accept an engagement in a San Francisco theater. She has been in New York for the past year preparing for the stage under the di- rection of her mother, who now has an established reputation as a successful actress. Disturbed the Peace. A. D. Smith, who was arrested on Sat- urday night for having disturbed the peace at a merry-gzo-round in Lorin, was tried before Judge James yesterday morning and found guilty of the charge.
