Auditor Whidden_ is now at his home under the care of a doctor.

Several Men Dodge From Under Thirty Tons of Hay. A number of men.employed in grinding ley on the Meek ranch had a close call one day this week of being crushed to death. While they were at work a sudden crackling noise was heard, and they had just time to escape -when the floor gave way and down came thirty tons of hay with a crash, John Fink had'just carried a sack across the floor to empty into the bin and had he remained a second longer he would have been crushed beyond recognition, but the crackling of the floér warned him in time, and he lost no time in getting outside. Another workman who was engaged in emptying sacks into the hopver, fortunate- ly was at the moment- out after sacks, and thus escaped a horrible death. Disgraceful Sandlot Scenes, There was need of the police to-night to reserve the peace in- front of the City F‘lall. For more than half an hour there was one of the most disgraceful scenes ever witnessed on what is now known as Oakland’s *“‘sandlot.” . About 8 o’clock the twocolored evangelists who nightly preach from the steps on one side of the entrance took their stand as usual and began to ex- hort the crowd. About 500 peaple gath- ered and were listening attentively to the evangelists when an enthusiasi mounted the steps on the other side of the entrance and began to talk politics. The two rival speakers about twenty feet apart drew an enormous crowd, and the new arrival speedily enconntered opposi: tion.- A crowd started up the steps to pull him - off, as they did not approve of his views on Teligious questions. Yelling and shouting was kept up for fully half an hour, when J. H. .Fones, a temperance orator. mounted the :bandstand a.little distance off and commenced. to hold. forth on metaphysics and popular ignorance of great subjects. - So- -great was the. crowd that when the City Council adjourned they were forced to leave the hall by a rear en- trance. When the political speaker, whose name is not known to-tke- police, was hustled till it was apparent violence would soon follow the police broke up his meeting and took the old man into_the prison for pro- tection, He was liberated as soon as the crowd had cleared off: The cause of the massing of the nightly crowds is the ardi- nance keeping them-off the streets, which is bemng rigidly enforced. Béfore the police broke up the crowd there were about 4000 people in front of the City. Hall. - A Brass-Finisher’s Dilemma. Cornelinus E. Stuart; a ‘brass-finisher, was jocked up to-night on a charge of felony. Stuart is a brass-finisher and: on August 8 he took out a marriage licénse and married Mrs. Moore, a widow who owns two flats at 765:and 765}3 Twentieth street. Everything progressed smoothl, until this morning, when Stuart and ‘bis wife went to a local:vank to make some property * transier. * On producing - their marriage certificate the teller informed Stuart that hisname was spelt wrongly and that he would have to go' to the Re- corder and have the.document corrected. The name on the certificite was Seward. Stuart went to -the County Clerk’s office and told him of the mistake and Deputy Mason told him it would be necessary to make an affidavit for County Clerk Jordan to attest. Stuart then went to the Record- er’s.office and asked-Deputy Spear to make the changé in the record. Of course Spear refused to do so without.authority. When the County Clerk - appedred later the stub- book ‘was found to have been corrected and the name Seward changed to Stuart. - The’ name -appears-three times on the stub; and-only 1n one place was it altered. Mason' charged Stuart with altering the record. Stuart denied it, and was arrested by. Députy Sheriff Mason on the advice of the District Attorney-and charged with felony. S o : The people at- the- house where the b Stuarts live said to-night that he was mar- | ried.by the namne of S knew his name was$ of the: warrant - was. work done in the D; during the present ad Hiywards Hard at Work.

Andrew Mosegard of Castro Valley had a runaway at San Leandro Wednesday. and is loser a valuable horse by the affair. -While the horses were standing in front of the postoffice they took fright at a passing electric-car and started toward Qakland. When half way through the San ILeandro bridge they collided with a buggy coming in the opposite direction and both horses were thrown. In their struggle one horse kicked the other and broke 1its leg, neces- sifating shooting the animal. Will Work in Harmony. The next five years will be the liveliest five years in the history of San Leandro. The majority of the people are ready to stand together for any good work. They haye made up their minds that that is the only way in which they can secure any- . thing of any value. On several occasions recently they have demonstrated that they can work together harmoniously and that they can do mighty thirgs that way. In five years from now there-will be many improvements and_the citizen who is for- tunate enough to live here then will won- der if there ever was a time when any but progressive citizens lived here.—San Lean- dro Reporter.

SECURING RIGHTS OF WAY Work Will Soon Be Com- menced on the Livermore Electric Road. VERY LITTLE OPPOSITION. No Bonus Is Being Asked, but a Free Right of Way Is Expected. The interior of Alameda County is showing a great interest in the electric road that will shortly be operating be- tween Oakland and Livermore. The pro- moters of the road are not delaying mat- ters because of the appeal to the Supreme Court regarding the validity of their fran- chise, but have already made preparations for progressing at a rapid rate. The opposition to the new road which was from the Hayward electrics line has been overcome, now that the Haywards line has not been awarded the franchise. Many of the property-owners along the proposed route from Oakland to San Leandro had signified their wiilingness to give rights of way before the franchise was granted, but later representatives of other lines prevailed upon some of them to go back on their promises. Now, how- ever, the matter has been satisfactorily ar- ranged and very few are holding back. Mr. Vandercook, the holder of the fran- chise, returned to Oakland to-day from a tour of the interior of the county, and he states that his company wants a right of way thirty feet in width, and he expects this to be given without any cost. hen the Haywards road was built there was no need to ask for any rights of way from pri- vate property-owners, as the entire route is along the public road. But the com- pany did ask and obtained some substan- tial bonuses. Mr. Vandercook will not ask for any bonus, but expects to be given the right of way, the company to make good any damage to trees or fences. The franchise granted by the Supervisors gives practically a clean line over county roads, but Mr. Vandercook says it is his desire to make the road as direct as pos- sible, and an effort is being made to secure the shortest possible route, and if these rights be secured, but little of the county roads will be required. The new company will build the road as soon as possible, and Mr. Vandercook states that about four months after rights of way are decured the rcad will be com- pleted. The agreement signed by property- owners who give land provides that the work shall be completed within one year after operations are begun. It is not the intention of the company to resort to con- demnation proceedings, as it is felt that such ought not to be necessary. The farmers and others through whose land the road will pass freely concede that the ultimate benefit to them will more than pay for the right of way. When the right of way cannot be obtained the route will be chahged o as to cut through prop- erty whose owners are willing to have it. According to the proposed route the road wilt not pass_through Haywards, but will strike Castro Valley about a mile and a half from the center of town. A branch from the main line will be run into Haywards. It is stated that F. M. Leland, who recently resigned from the ywards road, will enter the employ of Mr. Vander- cook. Mr. Leland is one of the mast ex- perienced superintendents on the coast, and under his management the Haywards road has paid dividends ‘almost from the start. A few days ago the Hay'wards road decided to call in some of its bonds and: run the road on a cash basis. The terri- tory through which the new road will pass s rapldly devélbping; and Ihe Fowts will terminate at Livermore.

The need for two more men seems to have been occa- sioned by the great increase of students taking courses in that devartment and through the nsifipgfion of Associate Pro- fessor Harold W hiting, who met with such a tragic end in the Colima disaster. His osition will be practically filled by Dr. E. E.'Lewn and Dr. A. C. Alexander, both of whom are Eastern men, Though their work will extend overa wider range than that of the deceased pro- fessor, yet the salary which he alone re- ceived will be apportioned between thera. Dr. Lewis comes directly from the Bliss School of Electricity in Washington, D. C., having been recommended for his present sition by President Gilman of Johns opkins University, a former president of- the University of California. i Dr. Alexander, who will be associated with Dr. Leywis, is recently from the Shet- field Scientific School, where he won con- siderable distinction as a physicist by his successful work along the iine of original research. s Professor Frederick Slate, head of the department, when seen to-day seemed much gratified with the outlook for the coming term. Stiles Hall. The controversy over the use of Stiles Hall by the Unitarian society, which has been the cause of so much comment in church circles within the last few days, seems now to be almost at an end, since the prime mover of theattack has admitted the legal right of the Unitarians to use the hall for church services, and the point of legality was the only one originally raised. Oakland Garbage. At a meeting of the Board of Town Trustees last night Health Officer Rowell offered a protest against allowing the Southern Pacific Company to continue the transportation of garbage tnrough West Berkeley in open cars. There is a town ordinance which re- %uires that all garbage hauled through erkeley must be done so in covered carts, wagons or other receptacles, and makes its violation punishable by a fine of $50. Dr. Rowell was given authority to en- force the ordinance. Meeting of Town Trustees. The Board of Town Trustees held their regular session last evening. A report was read showing that_the Fire and Water Committee could obtain a good hosecart, 600 feet of hose and the necessary accom- paniments for $500. The question of au- thority to expend amounts over $250 being raised, it was decided to advertise for bids for 600 feet of 2}4-inch_hose, hose-reel, two {:!nyp:pes and one dozen spanners, the ids to be opened at the next meeting of the board. A resolution wasadopted to macadamize San Pablo avenue from 500 feet sonth of Dwight way to the southern boundary line. Bills against the road fund to the amount of $505 09 were allowed; and against the general fund to the amount of $338 2 Holmes Library for the Town. A proposition was made to the Town Trustees last evening by William H. Waste, ident of the Holmes Library Association, to turn over to Berkeley the entire property of the Holmes Library, without cost or incumbrance, The pro erty consists of 2800 bound volumes, 4 unbound, 500 unbound magazines and the furniture and fixtures complete as they now stand. Sufficient funds are now in the library treasury to meet running ex- penses until November. Special Church Services. Rey. J. C.

DEATH OF MISS LEWIS, A Charge of Murder Is Placed Against Lewis Muhlher—A Damaging Story by the Mother of the Victim. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, August 16, } Attex.lying unconscious with a ballet in her brain for 120 hours, Miss Jennie Lewis died this afternoon without recovering consciousness or speaking one word that would have established the guilt or inno- cence of the man under arrest for the crime. As soon as the police were notified of the girl’s death a charge of murder was placed against Muhlner. The prisoner was told of Miss Lewis’ death, but he showed little interest in the news. ‘“Toobad; that's tough,” was all he said as he continued to smoke his pipe. Another circumstance connected with the unforcunate girl’s death was made known to-day by Miss Lewis’ mother. When Mahiner came to this city last Saturday, he came for the purpose of “fixing” Jennie, so that she would not be able to attend the Silver Stag ball in Ger- mania Hall last Saturday night. When asked about this, Mrs. Lewis said: “Muhl- ner was at a_party at Druid Hall Friday night, a_week ago. He left there at 3 o’clock Saturday morning, and under a forced drive to San Rafael reached our home before the famfli had risen, He breakfasted with us and remained nearly all the morning. In some way he learned that Jennie was goine to the ball in this city that night with Miller, and as he leit the door of my house he said: ‘T am going to Oakland, and I will fix Jennie so that sie will not go to the ball to-night with that fellow Miller, and I'll mash his face.” This remark was heard b{ a_young man who stood near the acor. If I had thought that Muhlner bad intended trouble T would have telephoned Jennie to keep out 1 of his way.” The attempt to decoy Jennie to the New- land House on last Surday afternoon by writing a letter signed by herlover, Charles Miller, is supposed by the police to have some connection with Muhiner’s desire to “fix”’ the young lady. Whether or not he carried out his intentions at the Mooar house next day is the point to be deter- mined at the trial. The police have now discovered that Mublner was in a saloon in Oakland be- tween 4:30 and 5 P. M. on the day of the shooting. This is about an hour after the tragedy occurred. Muhlner was noticed by his companions to be both nervous and excitable. An effort is being made to find the revoiver and to discover the conductor of the car that brought Muhiner into town. The remains of Miss Lewis were taken 10 the Morgue, and an inquest will be held Monday. An_autopsy showed that the bullet was imbedded at the base of the brain. e e 2 ORGANIZING LOOAL DEMOORATS. Iroquois ‘Club Branch Formed in the Forty-Second District, Preliminary steps were taken last night to form a branch of the Iroquois Club in the Forty-second District. Similar organi- zations have already been started in all the districts in this City from the Twenty- eighth to the Forty-second. Max Popper, as chairman of the commit- iee on organization for the club, is in charge of the work. He explained last night that the purpose for which all the precincts of the City are to be organized in this manner by the Democrats is to ac- uaint all the members of the party with the details of the fimmary election law passed by the last Legislature, and to in- terest Democrats in a general participation in the primaries. J. J. Bullivan was elected temporary chairman and C. H. Speller temporary secretary of the embryo club formed last night. fn about a week or ten days the remain- ing three districts in the City—the Forty- third, the Forty-fourth and the Forty-fif —will have been organized, and then there will be a general meeting of all the chair- men to discuss more definite plans for the work of the whole club. e Chicago, é}dnev and Buffalo have about Ny oo o Marasilos 00, Paris 3o, fom: ew Yorl ), Ma! 'S 'aris don 88, Hamburg 12, 4 % ISUTRU'S GENEROUS GIFT Will the Affiliated Colleges Committee Refuse to Ac- cept It? A MOTIVE FOR OPPOSITION. The Southern Paclfic Believed to Be Backing Up the Oppo- sition. A belief is growing that the Southern Pacific is back of the opposition to the selection of the Sutro site for a building for the Affiliated Colleges. It is claimed by those whose opinion is worth somethjng that the Southern Pacific has intimated to the members of the com- mittee (who are also members of the Board of Regents) that they must oppose the Sutro offer if they desire any favors of the Legislature in the way of additional appro- priations. In orderto cover up its work the Southern Pacific adopted a very pe- culiar though, now that it is understood, not unexpected course. The company did nothing less than abandon the service of the only street rail- road that made the Sutro site easily acces- sible. It is true that in order to do this hundreds of people must be made tosuffer. There may be little, much or nothing in this view of the case, but it would take more than a mere denial on the part of the railroad to make the people think so. The site offered by Mr. Sutro to the Af- filiated Colleges committee is incompar- ably superior to any so far suggested. It has a_frontage of 1200 feet on J street, and is within half a block of the railroad so recently abandoned by the Southern Pa- cific. The hills in the rear furnish a natural wind-break—an advantage not possessed by any one of the numerous sites heretofore suggested. Probably the most desirable feature of Mr. Sutro’s gift is found in the fact that the lot contains twenty-six acres, or land enough to meet any requirements of the Affiliated Colleges for the next hundred years to come. “There can be no question about the Sutro site being the most desirable vet offered,” said W. C. Little yesterday, ‘‘and I believe that when the committee come to consider the matter carefully, they will so decide. The fact of its being far out cannot be urged as an objection, for peo- ple must pay car fare anyway, and they wounld as soon go there as to any . other plas urther than this, the City is growing rapidly in that direction, for the simple ‘reason that it is the most desirable. As I said before, I do not see how the commit- tee can fail to approve of this site, and I am not prepared to believe that it will throw away such a splendid gift.”” LUTE NEWS OF ALAMEDA, Work of the Board of Equaliza- tion Now Nearly Com- pleted. W. H. Taylor Writes a Sarcastic Letter to the Equalizers—A Patent Bicycle Saddle. ALAMEDA, CaL.,, Aug. 17.—The City Equalizers assembled yesterday morning, but adjourned without trausacting any business. There are very few more ap- plications before the board to be con- sidered, and the work of equalization will be closed in a couple of days. In view of the action taken last Tuesday on the application of Mrs. Mary W. Mas- tick, cititations have been issued to a number of residents at West End to ap- pear before the equalizers Monday morn- ing and show cause why their assessments should not be increased. W. H. Taylor has written a communica- tion to the board expressing regret that business engagements will prevent his ap- pearing before them to show cause why the assessment on his property should not be increased from $4575 to $5000. Mr. Taylor is a caustic writer, and concludes his letter as follows: 1 do not know of any sales in that vicinity by which its market value couid be judged, and therefore think it largely a matter of conject- ure. But having had an oprormnny of ob- serving the radical views of your Assessor, think his valuation probably fair. Tam glad to be on his side for once, and la- boring under the impression that you wish to sustain him, urge that the assessment made by him be not changed. AsI cannot be present he probably might appear in my bebalf. A Challenge Accepted. Company G has accepted a challenge to meet fifteen members of Captain Turner’s company of the Naval Battalionin a shoot- ing match at the High-street range, to take place within a fortnight. The match will be for a trophy valued at §10, the day of the competition to be determined yet. The local company is desirous of making the match one for twenty men. Pneumatic Bicycle Saddle. A local expert cyclist has patented a pneumatic saddle, for which he claims many advantages over the present leather affair. Itisinflated around the sides and hollow in the center. Mr. Gorham claims that one forgets many of the difficulties and hardships of a long trip when riding one of these saddles. The invention will ‘be placed on the market shortly. Her Mind Is Gone. In the suit of M. G. Sirong for divorce against his wife, Emma L. Strong, now a resident of Spokane, Wash., trial has been set by Judge Ogden for September 23. De- ositions have been filed by Dr. C. 8. f(olb and George Thomas of Spokane to the effect that she is not of sound mind or able to have her deposition taken. The Timepiece Found. Alfred Earle called at police headquarters yesterday and reported that a thief had entered his room on Park street and stolen a silver watch. However, after a search, the timepiece was found tucked under the mattress. Letter-Carriers’ Benefit. The benefit entertainment for the family of the late W. E. Probst under the auspices of the National Association of Letter-car- riers of Alameda and Oakland was a finan- cial success. About $150 was netted. Children’s Day Praise Service.
