. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1895. 11 LATEST OAKLAND NEWS, A Man Who Was Not a Dog- righter Sues for Dam- ages. DAVIE UPHOLDS THE CYCLISTS. Electric-Cars Will Be Used on the Steep Pledmont Grades. OAxLAND OFFIC v Francisco CALL,} 908 Broadway, Sept. 27. ) W. E. Farno brought suit this afternoon against Mrs. 8. C. Sanford and O. M. San- ford, her husband, for $2000 for being ar- rested for being at a dog-fight. In his suit Farno states that Mrs. San- fard, the secretary of the Humane Society of Alameda County, swore out warrants against a long list of people whom she charged with being present and taking a part in a dog-fight that, it is allezed, took place last Sunday morning at Ike Bottom- ley’s barn, near Temescal. This list, itis alleged, was given broadcast to the press and appeared in all the newspapers pub- lished in San Francisco and Alameda counties, with the exception of TEE CaAryn and the Oakland Enquirer, and seriously injured W. E. Farno’s reputation. The fact is recited that Justice Clift released Farno from custody after his arrest and dismissed the charge against him, and that Mre. Sanford was satisfied that Farno was not at the fight, and that some one else had given the Deputy Sheriffs his name. Several of the other men arrested de- clare that their names were given by men to whom they do not belong for the pur- pose of misleading the Deputies who raigea the pit. Constable Koch went to Bottomley’s }1 ice last night for the purpose of taking Jottomley into custody for violating the liquor-license ordinance. Bottomley prom- ised to surrender himself this morning if leit alone, but this did not suit the con- called on the United State: in the arrest, but he did not render material aid. Finally Bottomley and his wife got the constable down, and held him for a time. While Koch was telephoning the Sheriff’s office for assistance olmley escaped, and has not yet been d morning the United States Gov- took charge of Battomley’s brindle The dog is now at the County being held as evidence in the case gainst Bottomley. As the defendant had defaulted on ajudgmex:: a Deputy Mar- shal was ordered to_ attach enough prop- erty to satisfy 1t. Not finding enough at Temescal the Marshal to-day put the seal Uncle Sam on the dog’s collar and the 1ded cur is now under attachment. Says They Did Right. Mayor Davie is one with the wheelmen in th efforts to haye the present ordi- nance repealed. He said to-day: The first thing I want to say is that I did not na to which the wheelmen are y xception. never have received my sanction. Their pa- ght was good, and 1 hope it will have the efiect of calling the attention of the Couneil to the foolishness of the ordinance passed by their predecessors and cause action of some kind on their par I intend to do sometbing in the matter, and my idea is about this. Each wheelman should 1 bell attached to his handle bar; as ringing it at the street-crossings, s ell bosh. is rung when it is necessary to call the ) of some pedestrian, that will be suffi- cient. I th thet some provision should be | made to preveni wheeling faster than eight miles an hour on Broadway and Washingion streets. Going more rapidly than this is wo Ppasss I believe Chief Lloyd msde & mistake in | causing these arrests without first consulting m If I bad been spoken to I should have asked him to postpone action for a few days, and in the meantime I would have seut a new ordinance to the Council with a communica- tion calling its attention 10 the silliness of the old one. If the bicycle boys want to do something in the matter, the best thing is to come beiore the Council and protest. Councilman Bassett says he will intro- duce an amendment to the ordinance at the next meeting of the Council. The Chief of Police admitted to-day that at last night’s demonstration the wheel- men acted strictly in accordance with the ordinance, although they carried obedience to extremes. To-night the same procedure is being kept up, and the streets are as noisy as on New Year's eve. A new move was deter- mined on by the cyclists to-day. Several arrests have been made for not having lamps burning, but the unlucky one has invariably forfeited his bail. But this will pe done no more. Thereis nota street in Oaklend that does not contain ruts and holes large enough to put out any bicycle lamp, and this will be pleaded in defense. Recently two men claim to have been arrested on Twelfth street, the roughest in Oakland, whose lan.ps were actually hot when the arrests were made. Bicycling at present is the leading topic in this city. Electricity on Grades. The opposition to the use of electric-cars on the steep grades of the Piedmont hiils bas not been heard of for several months, and a contract has just been signed by which that branch of the system will at once be changed from a cable to an elec- tric road. 5 3 = The change is an important one in many respects, and will be experimental so far as using the cable is concerned. The cable-track to Piedmont will be kept in re- pair, and the cable will probably be op- erated on Sundays, when 1t is necessary to carry more passengers than the electric service can accommodate. The great objection to electricity on this system is the fear that cars cannot be con- trolled on a down grade, and this matter was fought out in the courts during the recent litigation in which the road was involved. It is proposed to utilize the cable when not in operation for braking purposes in case of danger. There is to be some apparatus not yet perfected whereby the dead cable can be gripped if necessary 0 stop a car on a down grade. It is stated that the particular system of electric gear to be used is in use with per- Professor Charles Fauvel, M.

There is more thana passing interest being shown in the ex- periment, as there .are several electric roads in contemplation over the hills sur- rounding Alameda County, and much will depend on the results gained at Piedmont. Ideal Residence Sites. Within the next twelve hours the beauti- ful boulevard tract in Oakland will have changed hands, for at 2 o’clock this after- noon the auction sale will be held on the property. Its situation on the eastern shore of picturesque Lake Merritt, added to its admirable location in the very heart of the city, makes it eminently desirable for residence purposes, the sites being the Tre&uest and most advantageous in Oak- and. The expenditure of $50,000 in improve- ments on the tract is the best evidence that it is in perfect condition_for immedi- ate building. It is surrounded by mac- adamized streets, faced by the 100-foot wide boulevard, flanked with cement side- walks and thoroughly sewered. Only one- fifth deposit will be required at the sale. Senator Perkins’ Reception. Senator Perkins gave a reception to-night to the Starr King fraternity at his home at Piedmont. One hundred and sixty guests passed through the main entrance. Rey. C. W. Wendte and Frank Fletcher made short speeches, and music was furnished by the Arion quartet. Senator and Mrs. Perkins was assisted in receiving by the young ladies of the fraternity. Toward midnight a delicate repast was served, at which covers were set for 180 guests. The grounds were illuminated with strings of Japanese lanterns stretched among the trecs, and the affair was pronounced a social success. Football Opens. The first football game of the season will be played Saturday afternoon at the Pied- mont grounds between the St. Mary’s and Reliance teams. The St. Mary’s team has been training steadily for over a month under Walton, while the Reliance men have not been practicing over half that time. The Reliance team_will be com- posed as follows: Center, Marion Oliver; right guard, Wilbur; left guard, Bert Cli- ver; richt tackle, Erskine; left tackle, Mc- Millan; right tackle, Jack Sherrard; left tackle, Joe Racine; quarterback, McPike; fullback, J. Arlett; halfbacks to be chosen from Anthony, Folsom, Wilson and Briel- ing. Scanlan on Trial. The trial of Policeman Scanlan for bat- tering General Kelly of the Industrial Army a year ago is not proving very sen- sational owing to the absence of the general. No one knows where he is at present, and so the testimony given by im in the Police Court was read. ‘“Col- onel” Railton gave his testimony to-day and the trial will probably last another two days. A New Parlor. Athens Parlor, N. 8. G. W., installed its first board of officers in Fraternal Hall to- night. The officers of the Grand Lodge were present and the ceremony of formally launching the baby parlor on its own re- sponsibility was made as imposing as pos- sible. After the installation there wasa banquet at the Galindo Hotel, and speech- making and a few songs ended a festive night. e Miss Shaw Lectures. Miss Anna Shaw lectured on the ‘“Injus- tice of Chivalry” at the First Presbyterian Church. The lecture was _given under the auspices of the Political Equality Society of Alameda County.

The City Engineer having reported to the Couneil that the Eighth-street bridge is unsafe for travel, motices to that effect have been posted upon the structure. The estate of Jean Thome, the shoemaker who tried to kill his two daughters, and then committed suicide, has men:n(; raised at $900. It consists of a lot in North Oakland. The First Congregational Church elected officers last night. They are as_follows: Presi- dent, R. W. Snow; vice-president, George T. Hawley; secretary, W. R. Thomas; treasurer, | L. E. Boardman.

Nothing but Acceptance of Their Petition Will Piease the Majority. OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FrANcisco CALL, 908 Broadway, Sept. 27. } The trouble among the members of the Acme Club is approaching an amenable solution, and by the 1st of October it is ex- pected that the olive branch will be grace- fully entwined with the winged acorn. “T'he strong protest made against the ap- pointment of Van Coust in place of Pop Hardie as superintendent has had a great effect on the directors, and it 1s confidently expected that they will reconsider their action. Before the appointment of a super- intendent tor the coming year a petition, signed by more members than voted at the recent club election, was presented to the directors, asking that no_change be made. The petition was ignored and Van Court ‘was elected. “A few days ago,” said ex-President Allen to-day, “‘there was some danger of a disruption of the club, but now that is all ast. Whether the appointment of Van ourt, who is a perfect gentleman and first-class athlete, by the way, was made as payment of ante-election promises or for campaigning before the recent election or not cuts no figure. Hardie is a splendid man for the place, has made a great record and should be retained. Apart from that, the directors are certainly supposed to act for the club, and when a petifion was pre- sented, signed by a big majority of all the ‘members, it deserved recognition.” —_——— J. G.

Remarkable Number of Arrests for Violating City Ordi- nances. 0AELAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO C;\u,} 908 Broadway, Sept. 27. The abolishing of the office of License Inspector, as recommended by the Ordirance Committee of the City Council last night, does not meet with the ap- proval of the Me rchants’ Exchange, and in its position it issustained by Council- man Heitman of the committee. Several weeks ago, at a meeting of the exchange, President Fish stated thatone of the prime objects of the formation of the exchange was to procure the passage of an ordinance raising the license of ped- dlers within the city limits. To the sur- prise of the merchants, who had been pledged the votes of enough Councilmen to secure the passage of the ordinance, the measure was laid on the table, and it is still lying there. Last night a committee from the ex- change waited upon the Ordinance Com- mittee and argued in favorof the retention of the License Inspector. Eut, although Chairman Mott objected to the abolition of the office, he was outvoted, and a recommendation to abolish the office will go to the Conncil. Councilman Towle thinks the license or- dinances should be enforced by the Chief of Police, and argues that the Chief, with forty. officers at his command, can cer- tainly do more effective work than one man who works as fancy suits him. The fault found with all the license in- specters so far employed by the city is that they make a special point of arresting the little peddlers who have no license, but neglect to see the open violations of the law by people selling liquor without a li- cense. This is the view taken by a ma- jerity of the Council. The enforcement of all the ordinances now on the city's statute-book would pro- duce twice as much revenue as is now de- rived. Chief Lloyd is doing all he can to enforce them, and the numerous raids on Chinese and white gambling-dens and illicit liquor-sellers and violators of the bicycle ordinance have added more to the city treasury in four weeks than is usually done in four times that space of time. ‘When the ordinance abolishing the office of License Inspector comes up for final passage there will be a lively debate in the Council-chamber. LATEST BERKELEY TEMS, Football Men at Last Proceed to “Get Down to Business” in Earnest. A Blg Fleld Day for the Amateur Schools—Dr. John B. Frye Accepts. BERKELEY, CAL., S8ept. 27.—The foot- ball men over in Berkeley have begun to get down to solid business in the matter of training, preliminary to the line-up. Thus far under the management of Coach But- terworth only the most rudimertary work has been doue, as he found upon his ar- and six for a relay, while the Centerville High School will have four men on hand. For fifteen years tpx-e\viom to the field day held last fall between the schools of the Amateur League, the Oakland High has beld the supremacy, when the score between that school and the Berkeley High was declared a tie. This year the Berkeley boys will have only six entries against Oakland’s ten, but they have promised to set their opponents a hot pace from the start. To Give a Farce. The ways and means committee of the sophomore class, consisting of Everett Brown, Miss Robinson, Miss Henrice, Em- met L. Wemple and_ Will C. Russell, de- cided at a meeting this afternoon to recom- mend to their class that a farce be given in the near future for the purpose of raising money to vay off the debt now standing against the class. Dr. John B. Fryer Accepts. Word has been received by President Kellogg that Dr. Jobn B. Fryer, who was last summery elected to the Agassiz chair of Oriental languages at the university, will accept the position, upon the under- standing that he is to devote his whole time to the work.

LATE NEWS OF ALAMEDA, Ladies of the Unitarian Church Honor Two Popu- lar Members. Death of Dr. Edward P. Gaylord. Troubles of Dr. Sander—Tidal Canal. ALAMEDA, Cav., Sept. 27.—The ladies of Unity Circle of the Unitarian Church tendered an informal reception last night at the church pariors to Mrs. F. H. Mc- Cormick and Miss Elizabeth Westgate. These two ladies have been prominentin promoting various entertainments and are very popular. During the evening music on the guitar, mandolin and lute was rendered by the Misses Eliot -and Miss Macartney. Mr. Henley’s fine voice was heard to good advantage, while Miss Chappell, Miss Byler and Miss Swayne were obliged to ive encores. Mrs. Browning and Miss aylor gave some well selected recitations. Dr.Sunder’s Troubles. Dr. Alfred Sander is up to his ears in litigation. He instituted a suit in the Jus- tice Court to recover $299 damages from Joseph Melczer, the former owner of the horse which has several times run away with the doctor. Mr. Melczer says that the doctor is unable to drive, and contests the suit, filing a demurrer through his at- torney, Elwood Bruner. Elwood Bruner is suing the doctor to re- cover $50 for allezed attorney’s fees. The attorney got the doctor out of a scrape some time ago, when he and Mr. and Mrs. Howard were arrested for grand larceny. Dr. Sander refuses to pay him, saying that it was understood that the attorney was to get his fee from a damage suit which was to be instituted against the Oakland Iron Works for false imprisonment. Recorder 8t. Sure took the case under advisement. Death of Dr. Gaylord. Dr. Edward P. Gaylord died this mornin, at his home, Santa Clara avenue and Wal- nut street, of blood poisoning superinduced by dropsy. Deceased was a native of Ohio, aged 61 years. He studied medicine at a boreopathic college in Philadelphia and practiced in several Eastern cities and for two terms was president of the Ohio State Homeopathic Association. He came to California for his health and settled in N SN = A BERKELEY ATHLETES ON THE CAMPUS. [Sketched by a * Call’’ artist.] rival that the men had not had as much practice as last year’s team had at a cor- responding time, and in consequence more vigorous exertion fro m the beginning has been necessitated. The players are coming out in larger numbers as the days go on, though the coach feels that not as many as are capable of playing good football have turned out for practice. He said yesterday that ‘“there is very little time to get a team in order; yet those who have a_chance for the team are as easy-going as though they had the game in their hands and_would not have to work for itat all. For the boys to act blaze for the first two weeks and then ask to be taught everything in the last two is enough for the lazy man, but if the game isto be a game no lazy man must be on the team and every one must be ready to learn all he can at all times.” The men who are playing for positions back of the line are given special work. Every morning and then in the afternoon at 4 o'clock the entire number are put through a course of running, punting and falling on the ball, with considerable at- tention to practicing for the startatthe snap of the pifiskin to the quarter. Of last year’s varsity men only Sherman, Ransome, Hupp and Plunkett have thus far been seen in football attire. There is a possibility of two more of the team, Wil- son and Porter, coming out later in the season. Crescent Wheelmen to Race. The most important bicycle meet yet held by the Crescent Wheelmen will take place to-morrow afternoon at 3 o’clock on the Oakland Trotting Park. There will be three events—a five-mile .scratch, a mile handicap and a half-mile scratch. There will be thirty-three entries. The winner of the five-mile race will receive a §25 gold medal. Other prizes have been aflemf for the secondary events. Amateur Athletes’ Field Day. The Academic Athletic League will hold its third semi-annual champion field-day exercises on the University of California cinder path to-morrow afternoon, begin- ning at 2 o'clock.

English has been in consultation with Attorney-General Harmon relative to bringing to a termina- tion the condemnation proceedings against the estate of A. A. Cohen relative to s por- tion of a right of way across the Cohen property. Although all the other prop- erty-owners accepted the appraisement Cohen objected, and the matter will have to be settled in the courts so that work on the canal may not be delayed. Declined the Appointment. D. Hirschield, who was appointed by Mr. Forderer to serve on the finance com- mittee for the Wilmerding School, has de- clined the appointment on the plea of pressing business engagements. He ex- Presues himself as gratified in the con- idence placed in him, however. MRS. SHARP LOSES HER SUIT. The Executor of Her Husband’s Will Upheld by the Court. Judge Seawell rendered a decision in favor of the defendant in the case of Honora Sharp against Leopold Loupe yes- terday. Plaintiff was the wife of Charles Bharp, who, when he died several years ago, left his widow an undivided half in- terest in property south of the park valued at $70,000. The executor under the will sold the property in 1883 for $33,200 in order to pay off certain mortgages. In the complaint the plaintiff declares that the estate was community property and that the executor exceeded his author- ity in selling. The court decided that a testator has the right to dispose of the rroponi as he sees fit to satisfy his cred- totga and that the executor was right in his action. Baking Powder Absolutely Pare 4 SWUNG THE OFFICIAL A, New Appointments Made by the Board of Health. THREE NEW OFFICES CREATED. Several Public Schools Declared Nuisances and Sanitary Plumb- Ing Demanded for Them. The Board of Health met yesterday and officially carried out the programme of appointments as published in THE CALL yesterday morning. Three new offices were created: Bacteri- ologist, Milk Inspector and Messenger to the Quarantine Officer. Mayor Sutro vig- orously opposed the action on the ground that there was no money on hand to pay the appointees, but was regularly voted down. Drs. Moore, Fitzgibbon, Williamson and Hart stood shoulder to shoulder through- out the proceedings and regularly wedged the Mayor from every point of opposition. | They answered the Mayor’s warning against creating new offices at this time by declaring that the officers were necessary | to protect the public health. Mayor Sutro replied that he aid not think the board had the right to arrogate to itself the power of creating offices. The three mnew officers were npé)ointed just the same, and one of the hardest jobs'in their positions will te to collect their salaries. 5 The resignation of Dr. Titus as Superin- tendent of the City and County Hospital, to take effect October 15, was accepted. On motion of Dr. Williamson Dr. Stahle was elected to his position. The office of bacteriologist was ordered created, and on motion of Dr. Fitzgibbon Dr. John C. Spencer was elected to the | place at a salary of $150 a month. The position of druggist to the City and County Hospital was declared vacant and D]r. Morse had W. M. Hickman given the place. Dr. Fitzgibbon’s turn came again, and he had J. P. Dockery placed in the office of Milk Inspector at a salary of $100 a month. 7 In his turn Dr. Hart nominated J. J. Hilliard to the position of messen¥er to the quarantine officer at a salary of $50 a month, Then the engineer of the Almshouse was ousted from his piace and the job given to W. Groney. Bakers one, two and three of the City and County Hospital were given their walking papers and Dr. Fitzgibbon saw to it that Thomas Kelly, James McIn- u;sh and Thomas Sealy were given their places. 3 . Dr. Hart called the attention of the board to the fact that the germs of disease thrive in old water-tanks on private houses. Sonietimes even the bodies of animals accidentally drowned remained in them for a long time without any one sus- pecting. He suggested that a law be passed requiring property-owners to clean their tanks once a month. The board de- cided that all that was necessary was to instruct the Health Officer to notify the people to clean their tanks, Health Officer Lovelace made the follow- ing report on the public schools, which was ddopted: Lincoln Grammar and Webster Primary— Buildings old and dilapidated; yurdn})!anking worn snd rotten; closets open and offensive. Sutro Primary—Building old and shabb{, and situated befow street grade: yard plank- ing loose and rotten; closets have wooden vaults and no sewer connection. On_account of grade it is impossible to obtain drainage. Therefore I recommend that the school be con- demncd and removed to another lot. Everett Grammar— Open cement vaults, which should be considered a nuisance. Mission Grammar—In a sad state of decay; buildings old and shabbv; vard planking rot- ten and worn out; roof said to be leaky; out- houses worn out. Marshall Primary—Building old and shabby ; open wooden vaulis; drainage pipes leak, and therefore the floor of the yard and walls of the buildings are saturated with foul discharges. Buena Vista Primary—Open wooden vaults; the Mepsge {rom them soak through the walls of the building. Columbia Grammar—The open wooden vaults are directly under the sidewalk on Bryant street and constitute & constant nuisance to the residents. Fairmount Primary—Same style faunity vaults. Bernal Heights—Same faulty vauits and no sewer connection. Horace Mann Grammar—Outhouses in ve: bad eondition and.emita very foul odor; ,.S planking rotten and worn; roofs leak into the classroom. Irving Primary—Leaking sewer from Pres- cott street; yard and walls of school are sat- urated with the discharge from broken sewer on Prescott street. The sewer should bpe changed. Coopér Primary—Open wooden vaults; no sewer connection. The school is situated in an excavated lot and should be raised or moved. In view of the facts as aboye related I recom- mend that the open vaults in all of these schools be declared a nuisance and that sani- tary plumbing with proper sewer connections be substituted for them.
