NEW ROAD TO LIVERMORE Franchise Granted for Electric Line to the Coal Mines. an Rights of Way Have Been Secured and Work Will Once. Begin at The anxiety of capitalists to build an electric road from Qakland to the Corral Hollow coal-mining region kept the Board of Supervisors to a late hour last evening. The original application was made by E. R. Vandercook, and yesterday was set as the time for opening bids and awarding the franchise. To everybody’s surprise an opposition bid was received. It was signed by A. D. Thomson of Oakland. Mr. Vandercook’s bid offered to pay the county $25 cash and also o put in and operate a ten-horsepower engine at the County Infirmary for the purpose of heat- ing and lighting that institution. It also bound the company to place and maintain at twenty points along the route, to be designated the Supervisors, electric clusters of five lights each and to pay, after the road had been in operation five years, one-fourth of 1 per cent of the gross receipts into the county treasury. After a long executive s: Church said that the V appeared to be the highest, as it offered several tangible concessions h would naturally reduce the cost of the repairs of the County Almshouse. A. D. Thomson addressed the board, and said that he would bid higher than Mr. Vandercook by keeping to his bid of 2 per cent of the gross receipts and adding the other offers made by Mr. Vandercook. Mr. Thomson then read from a lawbook | to show that he had aright to increase his | bid after it was opened by the board. As- sistant District Attorney Melvin did not so construe the law_and advised the board that the statute did not contemplate an auction sale, but said clearly that the bid must be read. They could not be read unless they were formally handed in. “The statute does not_contemplate the sgecmcle of franchise bidders coming into the boardroom and going each other one better indefinitely,” said Mr. Melvin. | A resolution was finally passed awarding the franchise to Mr, Vandercook. As the East Oakland system, with which the new road is to connect, already reaches to Fruitvale, that part of the route is now ready for use. All the rights of way have been secured and the work will be com- menced at once. The people of Livermore are very enthusiastic over the project and the road is already assured ample backing. LATE ALAMEDA ~ NEWS, Happenings of a Day in the City Across the Bay. sion Supervisor ndercook bid Legality of Street-Work Specifica- tions Soon to Be Tested In Court. The legality of the specifications under which street work has been performed in this city will be tested in a suit pending in the Superior Court of this county, and if the point raised is upheld much confu- sion and litigation will result. The case is that of the California Improvement Com- pany against Emily M. Reynolds and others. The street in front of Mrs. Rey- nolds’ property on Alameda avenue and Willow street was improved by the com- pany under the usual proceedings, but the bill of $183 95 for the work remains un- vaid, and it is her dispute of it that the question is raised. The attack ison the clause of the specifications which require that the planks forming vart of the curb must be spiked with §x4-inch redwood vosts, 21£ feet long and not more than ten feet apart. Raymond Charged With Burglary. Charles Raymond, arrested on Saturday on suspicion of having stolen the carpen- ters’ tools found in his possession, has been charéed with burglary. W.

ALLLIKECONDENSED NEWS “The Call’s” Method of Re- porting the Durrant Case Approved. A PAPER FOR BUSY MEN, District Attorney Barnes Says That the Reader Wants Unvarnished Facts. Tre CaLy's method of reporting the Dur- rant trial is attracting a great deal of fa- vorable comment. District Attorney Barnes said on the subject: It is an excellent idea. The average man has g-drawn reports. He wants his fest possible space, and further- more he wants facts, from which he may draw nis own conclusions. He would justas soon have these iacts without e gaudy dress of rhetoric. I fail to see how the average bus ness man hurrying to and from his business would be able to read this case at all without some such method as tuat now being pursued by THE CALL. Major Hooper, manager Occidental Ho- tel, said: “The Durrant Case in a Minute” has made a decided hit. 1 hear a great deal of talk about THE CALL'S method of handling this case, which is being praised on all sides. It is just what people want, Who has time for a page of this stuff? I have not. The Jozer that will put it all in a few hundred words is_the paper that I shall read,and this is why I take CALL. W. H, McCormick, proprietor McCor- mick Marble Works, said: But for THE CALL'S idea in condensing this matter I should not attempt to read the case, though in common with others I am very much interested in the issue. Isimply have notthe time to read through the other reports as published, Iknow at least a hundred men who are reading THE CALL'S account exelu- sively, because it is condensed. One of my neighbors eaid to me yesterday: *“McCormick, I have given up reading the Durrant trial. It has grown too big for me. Lhave not an hour each day to devote to it,and so I leave it alone entirely.” Itold him that he could get the whole thing THE CALL, while be was waiting for_his wife to pour out the coffee at breakfast. He asked how acd I exrlahxcd. That same siternoon he subscribed for 1HE CALL. D. W. Hitchcock, general agent Union Pacific Railway, said: The idea is an excellent one. It is just the thing for the busy man, and we are all busy these days. The man of affairs has little time 1o devote to sensational murder trials. At the same time I suppose almost everybody is read- ing the case. THE CALL'S mefhod is to be highly commended. It will certainly be in favor with the busy business and professional man. Mayor Sutro said: Just the thing for the busy man. Great idea. Without it half the people could not read this trial. Who has time for a page of matter? I haven't. Haveyou? Read THE CALL and ge[ it in & minute. Long live THE CALL. Good-by. Anuditor Broderick said: An excellent method. It fills a long-felt want. How else could people get the news on this case? The busy man wants his news con- densed. Colonel W. R. Smedberg said: A splendid idea. THE CALL is, in myopinion, the best paper in Ban Francisco. LATEST BERKELEY NEWS Discovery of Gold Quartzin the Berkeley Hills Near Lake Temescal. President Kellogg Issues a Univer~ sity Calendar for the Open- ing of the Year '95-'96. Gold has again been discovered in the Berkeley hills. Last February several citizens of Clare- mont, near Temescal, found flakes of the precious metal on Ashby avenue near the hills, and the theory was advanced that it had been washed down from the foothills during the stormy season. Several parties went prospecting in the Contra Costa range on the strength of the discovery in Bouth Berkeley by tracing the streams which flow down the avenue in winter to their sources in the hills, confident that there must be a ledge somewhere in the canyon. After several months of prospecting the searchers were about to give up the task when they found a rich ledge of gold-bear- ing quartz near Lake Temescal, five miles from Oakland. Dr. W. D. Huntington, a young Oakland ghy:iclnn, is_the proprietor of the newly iscovered mining property, and he has at resent an experienced miner at work on he ledge. A short time ago an assay of some of the rock was made, which showed that the gold ran $50 to the ton, and miners assured the doctor that the rock can be taken out and milled for $250 per ton. The ledge can be traced for several miles up the canyon. A practical miner, Mr. Van Harlengen, has tunneled into the hill thirty-five feet, and finds there is a well- defined ledge of low-firade ore. Someyears ago there was also a little gold excitement in the vicinity, but Dr. Huntington believes that the work then done by the prospectors was very superficial, and that the explora- tion he is now carrying on is the first thorough one. The Contra Costa Water Company has received an application from those inter- ested in the new discovery for permission to prospect their ledge where it runs through the corporation property.

P ———— LIVED IN A EOVEL Oscar Herman’s Miserable Abode on the Mission Road. The arrest of Oscar Herman on a charge of failure to provide has called to the at- tention of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children one of the worst cases that has yet come under its notice. Herman was found in a miserable hovel on the Mission road, in which he has lived for some time with a 12-year-old son. The policeman who took him into cus- tody says that the shanty contained no furniture or bedding and that the occu- pants must have slept on the floor. No food was found about the place, and the boy looked as though he had been without proper sustenance for some time. The mother, Mrs. Bertha Herman, sep- erated from her hushand some time ago, when the latter retired to the hovel with two sons and refused to let any one care for them. Recently the mother went to the place and during the father’s absence took one of the boys away and placed him in charge of the Boys' and Girls’ Aid Society. He was without underclothing and the threadbare coat that he wore but illy pro- tected him from the winds. The otherg)oy ran away when he saw the policeman com- ing to arrest his father and has not been seen since. ROWDYISM ON THE BOATS Ferry Commuters Who Are Alarmed at Sunday Night Occurrences. Free Fights and Assaults on Pass- engers Prompt a Vigorous Protest. Commuters who patronize the ferry- boats on their late night trips are prepar- ing a protest to the Sonthern Pacific Com- pany on account of the disgraceful con- duct of the crowds of hoodlums, male and female. who make a practice of returning to Oakland by the last boats on both the narrow and broad gauge routes on Satur- day and Sunday nights. These rough characters make the night hideous with their yells and foul language, and so bad has the nuisance become of late that passengers whose business com- pels them to use the boats have deter- mined to ask for protection. The disgraceful acts which took place on the 12:15 broad-gauge boat on Sunday night last determined the commuters to act. The -waiting-room on this side in which the passengers are compelled to wait for some time before the boat starts was crowded with roughsin a greater or less state of intoxication, whose profane and obscene language assailed the ears of a number of ladies who were awaiting the sailing of the ferry-boat. Just before the boat started two young girls, who were either unable or unwilling to walk, were carried into the waiting- room by their male friends and deposited on benches, where they proceeded to add their maudlin yells to the general con- fusion. On board the ferry the din was continned and heightened by the curses of anumber of roughs, who got into a fight over the question of payment for liquor. The climax was reached when the pas- sengers congregated on the forward deck preparatory to going ashore. A number of Chinese were abused, and when an in- telligent-looking . Japanese intertered and asked that they be let alone he was as- suulted, He returned the blows and the entire forward deck at once became the scene of a melee. Yells of “Kill him!” *‘Throw him over- board!” came from the struggling mass that filled the deck, and one lady fainted from fright for fear that some one would be killed. The deckhands who were attending to the Janding of the boat made no effort to stop the melee, which was ended by the landing of the ferry only to be renewed on the way to the train. The Japanese was terribly battered up before he was finally escorted on board the train by a couple of gatemen. This occur- rence led to the determiration to demand protection from the company, and an at- torney is now drawing up the document. In it the company will be given a few legal pointers touching its liability for ac- cidents to passengers who travel by its boats by reason of carelessness or other causes which might be avoided. T. P. Robinson, who was among those who witnessed the free fight on the for- ward deck, states that such scenes occur nearly every Sunday nizht, and that many Eeople have ceased to_travel by the late oats for fear of being injured. e e Hirsch Again in Trouble. C.F. Hirsch, the deaf carpenter on McAllis- ter street, near Polk, who has been in trouble several times through his insane desire to wear female apparel, was convicted in Judge Low’s conrt yesterday by Justice Kerrigan, who is occupying the bench during Judge Low's absence from the City, of malicious mis- chief. He was holding one of his receptions on Saturday nifhz and, as usual, & crowd gath- ered in front of his shop. A row followed and a brick thrown by Hirsch crashed through the window of the store of D. B. James & Co.and groken showcase. He will be sentenced to- ay. ——————— HOTEL ARBRIVALS. PALACE HOTEL.

DRIVEN OUT OF HAWAIL President Dole Disposing of Japs to Avoid Trouble With Japan. Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald has re- cently received some startling information that coatirms the suspicions he had during the Japanese cooly investigation, that Japanese are flocking into the State by the hundreds, and that if the unrestricted im- migration of this class of coolies is not stopped by an exclusion act the little brown man will be as much of a menace to the whites as the Chinese were a few years ago. During his investigation many things showed that Japs were crossing the northern border of the United States from British Columbia. A few came from Victoria by steamer direct to this port, but the great majority crossed tue line and not a few tramped to Portland and from there took the cars to the fruit orchards in this State. Mr. Fitzgerald and Immigration Commissioner Stradley frequently spoke of the lax manmer in which the United States Commissioner in Vietoria issued passports and certaficates to Japanese who desired to come to this port by steamer, and Mr. Fitzgerald wrote to a special Treasury agent in the State of ‘Washington upon the subject, to which he received the following answer: Yours of the 26th ult. did not reach me until yesterday, owing to my absence for_the last month. T appreciate what you say about the Jap question and heartily agree with you that mattersseem quite loosé as to the manner of their introduction into the United States, in so far asIam advised; and I may say that we have had considerable trouble in this connec- tion. Ithink an investigation would at least Fbe wholesome in any event. I will write to the department in line with your letter and will advise you of results. Yesterday a reliable gentleman in- formed Mr. Fitzgerald that there is a per- fect exodus of Jap coolies from the Sand- wich Islands. They go direct to Victoria by steamer and cross over to the Washing- ton ports in small boats. Hundreds go to Portland and take coast vessels to San Francisco. This route is followed first be- cause it is easier to enter British Columbia and then the United States than to come direct from the islands, and further they know they will have no trouble from the Immigration Commissioner when they sail from coast ports. The news of the anti- Jap agitation here has caused them to take this route. Every coastwise steamer from the north brings in coolies and every northern train has the same class of pas- sengers. The reasons for the Japs leaving the Hawaiian Islands in such numbers was explained by the gentleman, who said that he recently heard from a Cabinet officer at Honolalu that Japan has demanded of the little island republic that the Japanese residents of the 1slands have the right to become citizens. The late deposed native Queen had promised this to Japan before the throne was pulled out from under her. President Dole and his Cabinet had no idea of admitting Japanese cooly laborers to citizenship, but feared to be too open in his refusal. Japan, flushed with re- cent victories, migixt enforce her de- mand b{{ sending a_ man-of-war to bombard Honolulu. President Dole udogted the plan of getting rid of the bulk of the Japs as the easiest way to avoid trouble, and, through means at his dis- posal, work has been scarce for Japs on the island during the last year, and the coolies are emigrating to the United States via Victoria. This statement is, in a measure, substan- tiated by the letters that fell into Mr. Fitz- gerald’s hands, stating that Japs could be sent from Honolulu to California to work in the orchards for $12 a month. He re- gards the situation as alarmin% and will at once communicate to the authorities at ‘Washington, D. C. NEW CORPORATIONS.
