Davie, President and ex-officio member of the , President of the Police and Fire commissions and at pres- ent the dispenser of a veto that the solid seven of the Council attempted in vain to override. Last night the Council tried to pass the ordinance calling for a tax levy of §118 over the veto of the Mayor. They were unsuccessful, for the Mayor’s four stanch supporters—Bassett, Brosnahan, Heitman and Watkinson—voted no and the other seven were helpless, Now that so much has been said about my cutting down the various appropria- tions,”” said the Mayor. “it is necessary that I should give a sample of the wanton waste of money that is going on in at least | one department.

Eleven Football Men Go Into Train- ing—Meeting of the Board of Education. BERKELEY, Oct. 9.—Much interest is | taken in the possible outcome of the work of the committee which has been ap- | pointed to investigate charges made | against persons suspected of having stolen | books from the university library. Two or three upper-class men have been sus- pected. Goue Into Training. Eleven football men went into the new | training quarters to-day on Union street.

A few weeks ago the Council passed an ordinance taking the power of signing requisitions out of the hands of the Mayor and giving it te the chairman of the Pinance Committee. The ordinance, how- ever, did not please the Mayor, the veto was put on it and it is a dead letter. *One thing I must say,” said the Mayor to-day, “‘and that is that I sincerely de- olore the outbursts of anger that marked last night’s meeting. The Council, even if they cannot agree with me, can at least act like gentlemen among themselves.” Councilman Bassert introduced an amendment to the bicycle ordinance to- day. His amendment is to abolish the section of the old ordinance requir‘mfi the loud and continuous ringing of bells or sounding of borns at every street croseing. The protest against the ordinance made by the procession of wheelmen a few days ago proved that the practice would soon develop into a nuisance, and the bicycle clubs at once sought its repeal. The ordinance will be read the first time to-morrow night, but should the seven opponents of Mr. Bassett in the Council decide to vote against 1t, the amendment will be killed. A Seven-Story Block. Many capiialists in this city have had big hotel projects, but William J. Dingee is to be the first man to give to Oakland a reall t-ciass hotel. Several weeks ago the Albany block at Fifteenth and Broadway was bought by William J. Dingee, president of the Qak- land Water Company, for $175,000. At the tire many wondered what he wanted of the property, but to-day it was learned that his intention was to transform the building into a magnificent hotel, equal in many respacts to any on the coast. The building is a four-story brick, 150x 150, and is quite imposing. The intention is to add three stories and at the top have & restaurant and kitchen similar to the Auditorium in Chicago. There will be elevators. " Collins’ Trial. The second trial of Michael Collins for the shooting of Philip Boogarlast January on Eighth street, in frontof the Galindo Hotel, was commenced to-day before Judge Frick. He was defended by George A. Knight and F. J. Brearty, and occupied a seat near them durinfi the examination of talesmen for a jury. His daughter, Mrs, Catherine Boogar, wife of the murdered man at the time of the shooting, sat at his side. Levi Flint ana Joseph Wohlirom were the only jurors secured up to adjourn- ment. Notaries’ Fees. The majority of the notaries of this city have combined to keep up the regular fee of 50 cents for the reason that some, mostly men in the real-estate business, have been doing the work at 25 cents, thus bringing prices down. A petition has been going the rounds for several.days to get signers to keep up the former or regular rates, and was signed by all the notaries except the few mentioned. The matter has created a great deal of interest, though it is ot easy to see how the realty men can be enjoined from cutting rates, Self-Denial Week. The week from October 14 to 22 was the time ordered for the observance of Self- denial Week this year, but as Mrs. Balling- ton Booth, wife of the commanderof the United States, will be in Oakland that week the week of self-denial has been changed to some time in November, so Salvationjsts can be free from restraint while their beloved officer from headquar- ters is among them. Frader Arrested. John Frader was arrested to-day for as- sault with a deadly weapon on Michael Amreal, the 12.year-old lad whom he in- jnred with a pitchfork late yesterday afternoon. Stuart Goes Free. C. E. Stuart has been acquitted of the charge of altering the record of marriage licenses, issued in the name of Btewart for his marriage to Mrs. Ada Moore, by a jury.

THE ALKMEDR TAY LEN Good Intentions of the Board of City Trustees Not Questioned. A Number of Citizens Who Favor Sailt Water for Street-Sprink=- ling Purposes. ALAMEDA, Oct. 9.—During the day groups of men might have been seen at the streét corners discussing the much-vexed question of the $1 22 tax levy. It wasthe only topic of conversation, and while very many express themselves in no unmeas- ured terms not one word has been said questioning the honesty or the good in- tentions of the Board of Trustees, who are all business men and gentfemen highly re- nge cted 1n the community. It seems fo be the general opinion, however, that ve; mnni items might have been eliminate: and that the building of the new City Hall | he comes of age, petitioned ihe courtto SR PR S THE VEILED YOUNG WIFE, Is Mrs. Fred Adams Seeking Revenge From the Grand Jury ? THE AGE OF HER HUSBAND. Sworn to as Twenty-One at Mar- tinez and as Under Twenty in Oakland. 0AKLAND OFFIcE Sax FraANcIS } 908 Broadwa, During the last two sessions of the | Grand Jury much interest was shown in | the visits of a heavily veiled woman who | passed into the chamber of censors. The | lady was not known to any of the regular | court habitues, and as she did not raise her veil no one discovered her identity. To-day she was recognized as the wife of | young Fred Adams, the banker’s son, who applied to Judge Greene for a guardian a week ago and whose brother, James Adams, was appointed to look after the boy’s estate. The purpose of Mrs. Adams in going be- fore the Grand Jary is not definitely known, but the peculiar relations existing | between her and young Adams’ family throw considerable light on the affair and | offer what is certainly the trne meaning of her visits., Mrs. Adams was married at Martinez to Fred Adams, a boy of 19, and when Adams ing to Qakland Mrs. Adams was surprised | to learn that her husband was not yet 20 years old. His family induced him to re- turn to them and forsake his wife, and at once began to inquire into her past career. | They claimed to have discovered that she | was an adventuress from St Louis, and | that she had been divorced from one hus- | band while there. All these things natur- | ally aroused the wrath of Mrs. Adams, but she refused to talk, merely giving a hint that she was biding her time. A week ago Fred Adams, who will be worth property of the value of $40,000 when have a guardian appointed, as he thought his property interests required it. He swore that his age was under 20 and that his elder brother was fully able to manage his estate, and on this showing the court appointed the elder brother as his guardian. The point which it is supposed Mrs. Adams is trying to gain is this: If Fred Adams swore that he was21in Martinez and swore that he is under 20 last week before Judge Greene, then he must have committed perjury. As the Adams fam- ily has shown no disposition to recognize rs. Adams, but have stated that the let- térs of guardianship are but the sequel to an application for divorce, it is but natural that the deserted wife should retaliate. | The Adams marriage has created much talk in this cl!¥, though whether Mrs, Adams was sent for or whether she at- tended voluntarily is not known. At her usual place of residence to-night she was said to be away from home. THE NEW BERKELEY TEAM Something About the Latest Candidates for Football Honors. A Fine Lot of Men With Plenty:of Enthuslasm—The Prospects Bright. BERKELEY, Car., Oct. 8.—The pros- pects for the coming season of the Univer- sity of California in the greatest of all modern games, football, seem brightinthe extreme. The securing of such a compe- tent and generally admired coach so early in the season, confidence in the plucky captain, an extraordinarily large number of promising candidates, a field in vhe prepar- ation of which precaution was taken to prevent accidents, and the experience of former years, have all tended toward creat- ing unprecedented interest in the contest over the pigskin. For the first few days after the arrival of Coach Butterworth only about twenty-five, or half the entire number of men who had suits, turned out, partly on account of the unsettled condition of football affairs and partly on account of the apparent diy- ness of the rudimentary work prescribed, but as soon as the first line-up was called out they came in full numbers ana have continued to do so ever since. Bucking the line and running with the ball with a full team chasing them is what the boys ike. A particularly noticeable feature of the play at this early period in the season is the spirit which animates nearly all the men. They play with a will and snap unusual 8o early in the year. As a general rule they do not become fully imbued with the life and animation absolutely necessary at playing until nearer the great game, but this season the essential vivacity has come to the surface much sooner than ordinarily, and thus much hope for suc- cess on Thanksgiving day is engendered. The work of the team against the Re- Jiance men, in their 20-minute contest last Saturday, was a striking proof that one of the prime elements, pluck, was not want- ing. Coach Butterworth, Captain Sher- man and Manager Long are much elated and other improvements during the past year is a record upon which the city could well stand jfor another yearorso. The item for water to sprinkle the streets seems to puzzle a good many, who do not see, wli; salt water is notused for that purpose. hero are many others, again, who, taking a genuine pride in the beautiful streets and the excellent city government, uphold the tax. Unable to Satisfy a Mortgage. J. H. Bruns, executor of the estate of Theodor erring, has been granted permission by Judge Frick to compromise a claim the estate has against W. H. Bch ottenberg. Failed to Provide for His Child. Edward McFaddin was arrested yester- day in San Francisco by Constable von Kapff on a warrant for failure to provide for his child. McFaddin acted asa deputy in 1894 under School Census Marshal Bal- lentine and was inaicted by the Grand Jury for making fraudulent returns of the West End district. Suit to Recover Property, E. B: Dunning brought suit in the Su- perior Court to-day 5350 t W. S. Jacobs and wife to recover the sale of a house and lot on Santa Cl enue, near Broadway.

Though the football training season gmctiellly opened ten days ago, yet to- ay marks the time when solid business- like work begins, forthe training table will be set for the first time. About twelve men will go into quarters on Union street, near the fiymnuium, and from now hence- forth will observe strict training rules under the watchful eye of the coach. The majority of men who will make u the eleven which will uphold the biue mg soln against the cardinal on Thanksgiving ay must necessarily be made up of com- rnrnively new material, as only four of ast year's team, at most, will train for Fnitionl. namely, Sherman, Ransome, lunkett and Wilson. Asa consequence much interest is centered in the new men, d as the final struggle draws nigh the scrap of information as to a man’s ability or chance for a place is sought after with the utmost ufemem Following is a list of the men who are actively training: Captain Sherman is a member of the class of 1697‘: is 20 years old, five feet seven inches in height and weighs 140 pounds.

WIDENING THE BREACH, Rabbi Friedlander’s Absence From Service Causes More Trouble. MEMBERS THREATEN TO BOLT. The Reform WIIl Go On Notwith- standing the Opposition of the Conservative Faction. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCISCO OALL, 908 Broadway, October 9. } The existing controversy among mem- bers of the First Hebrew congregation has not diminished during the past twenty- four hours. On the contrary, the two fac- tions are drifting further apart. The con- servative party and the. reform element both claim to be in the right. The breach of discontent was widened a little more yesterday by the orthodox members of the synagogue on account of Rabbi Friedlander's failure to conduct services at the synagogue this morning. According to the laws of Israel to-day was the seventh day of Succoth “Hoshana Raba.”’ The synagogue was open this morning for service, but Rabbi Friedlander ‘was not present. Secretary Bernstein con- ducted the services. Now, the members of the congregation ‘who are against ref orm methods want to know why the rabbi wasnot at his post. They claim that his contract calls upon him to conduct all services, and as to-day was & holy day, he should have been at the synagogue. Thereform faction, who are in the majority, do not observe the day, and as Dr. Friedlander is preaching reform, it is claimed that he did perfectly right. fi‘he conservative members have learned that before Rabbi Friedlander came here, he was strictly orthodox, and his congre- gation in Brooklyn, N. Y., was composed of orthodox Jews only. Another complaint being made by the orthodox members is against Rabbi Friedlander’s mode of living. He has rooms at the Albany House, and they say a rabbi has no right to live in a place where he cannot obserye the laws of the Hebrew in regard to dietary matters, Here again the reformers come to the front with the excuse that, as a reform Jew, Rabbi Friedlander is violating no law 'hy residing at the Albany, and further say that inside of six months the orthodox prayer-books will not be in use in the synagogue. Said one prominent reformer yesterday : “We are not living in that era whers we must observe ever{ law laid down in the Pentateuch, We live in a progressive age. Twenty-five years from now the orthedox mode of worship will be extinct and re- form will be preached in every Jewish house of worship.”” As the matter now stands the majority of the members are for reform, and there- fore Rabbi Friedlander will have to con- tinue to preach reform unless at the next election the conservative faction should be in the majority. when he will have to re- turn to his old form of erthodoxy. In the meantime reform will go on, and the op- posing members will continue to find faunlt until one party or the other takes its sup- port_from the church and conducts serv- ices independently of the other. —_— BAPTISTS' ~ ASSOCIATION, Loss, Gain and Present Church Membership in the District. Judge Elllott’s Arraignment of the Church People Who Vote With the Ungodly. The Central Bafifise Association recon- vened yesterday morning with the follow- ing churches represented: Alameda, Rev. W. T. Jordan; Auburn; Berkeley, Dr. Kellogg Lane; Oakland, First Baptist Church, C. H. Hobart; Oakland, Tenth- avenue, Rev. C. M. Hill; Oakland, Twenty- third-avenue, Rev. Robert Whitaker; Golden Gate; SBan Francisco, First Baptist, Rev. M. Parker Boynton; San Francisco, Third Baptist, Rev. G. W. Duncan; Em- manuel Baptist, Rev. George Gibson; San Francisco, Hamilton Square, Rev. A. M. Russell; San Francisco, Chinese, Deacon H. F. Norris; Beth Eden, Rev. J. L. Allen; Danish Norwegian, Rev. A. Sjolander; Rev. G. M. Hill, Moderator. Swedish church, San Francisco, Rev. L. E. Nelson; Reno; First Stockton, Rev. C. L. Bublett; Second Stockton, Rev. Roy Pal- mer; San Pablo, Rev. J. W. Henry; Sonora, Rey. N. C. Hansen;2Calavary, Sacramento, J. H. Reider; Wheatland church. The report on statistics gave the mem- bership of the district for the year as a loss of 273, a gain of 440, and the present list of members as 3456. Mrs. J. Sunderland, in her repori on publications, commended the editorial and literary work of the Pacific Baptist, the Baptist Union organ of the young eople’s societies, the Home ission onthly and the Missionary Magazine. Upon the subject of the Woman’s Ba&- tist Foreig\ Missionary Society Mrs. R. H. Graves, who has been eight years in China and Japan, told of the work, esfpecisny among the women, there. These females, debarred by tradition and custom from partaking of any literary training, seize upon the pure and gentle teachings of Cnrinhnltg with eagerness. Among the Baptist missionaries recently driven out of Szechuan, in Western China, was the Rev. G. W. Hill, brother of Rev. . M. Hill, moderator of the association. The refugees, who barely escaped with their lives, are nowy at Shanghai. In his report on *‘Sabbath and Temper- ance” Judge L. W. Elliott spoke as fol- lows: . The temperance question we have alwavs rith us, snd. 1t , whi indeed be strange if e a:iudvn ever becomes a thing of the pastso ug a3 avarice and appetite predominate. ) While thers has been no National election since the last association determine the growth of practical temperance sentiment, still there are many indications that the minds of men are being impressed more deeply than ever with the evils of intemperance. It is painfully true that at the few elections that have been held in the last year tbe result has indicated that those who pray for the suc- cess of the cause- of temperance are strangely remiss in the attempt to answer their own prayers, and church members are still largely answerable to the charge of the ungodly that thay pray one way and vote another. \\H,% 4,245,050 Baptists in the Nation, one- tenth of whom may probably be counted as voters, with 4,786,396 Methodists having the same proportion of voters, with 1,351,811 Presbyterians, with over 500.000 Congrega- tlonalists, so with 15,000,000 Protestantchurch members, one-tenth of which may be esti mated 8s'voters, it is no wonder that & vote of 271,650 that was cast at the last National elec- tion for the only temperance candidate should rovoke the derision that the church suffers rom the ungodly. While it is more than probable that the vote cast was really half a million, still we are rather badly posing, then, ss the friends of the temperance cause, particularly in view of the fact that not all of the temperance vote fell from the hands of church members. More local effort is being made in the line of ‘""{,’"‘“" than ever known before, and even in the city of New York, s place supposed to be be{ond redemption, the stream of damna- tion has been pretty effectually dammed for oneday in the week. Still it is true that it is not possible for the temperance man to fill any piace where his principles can have fair play, for the quali- ties of a true Christian or an outspoken tem- perance man utterly disqualify nim for a posi- tion on any political ticket of any of the great parties; but temperance men aré permitted to vote the ticket.on which they would not for a moment be permitted to figure as candidates, The exhortation to render unto Cmsar the things that are Cresar's and to God the things that are God’s seems to be feintly understood. And the action of a large proportion of God’s people at the polls would indicate that God could not be served at the polls, and the un- converted may well suppose that in the dis- charge of the dutfes of & citizen no Christian 831\11!(&! are involved. The spectacle of 1,500,- 0 professing Christians marching to the olls shoulder to shoulder with 240,000 sa- loon-keepers to vote for the candidate of the saloon-keepers—for it is undeniably .true that the ChrllY.Pnns make no pretense to candidates of their own—seems almost inexplicable. So long as this course is f)nrsued b’y professional Chitlgtians 8o long will their profession be de- rided by the ungodly. On the subject of the Sabbath—a serious uestion with the Baptists, as 36,277 of their brethren are keeping Saturday, the seventh day—Mr. Elliott said in his report that. it is strange that a law which has been repealed for nearly 1900 years should still be adhered to, and it must be ad- mitted that if this denomination is at sea on anything it is the Sabbath. After the opening services a council of the delegates appointed by the different churches of the Central Association was called to examine H. C. Hansen as to his fitness for the ministry. Rev. Ray Palmer was elected chairman of the council and Rev. M. F. Hoyt clerk. After the Chris- tian experience of the candidate was lis- tened to, the ordination services were per- formed, which consisted in the laying on of hands by Rev. C. M. Hill, Rev. O. M. Russell, Rev. N. F. Hoyt and Rev. M. P. Boynton. The charge to the candidate was given by Dr. G. B. Abbott, who also extended to him the right hand of fellow- ship. The doctrinal sermon by Rev. J. H. Reider ot Sacramento, which followed, was considered as the ordination address. The topic of his remarks was ‘‘Justification by Faith Alone.” ; Following the sermon of Mr, Reider was areport on the ‘State of Religion,” by Rev. Mr. Frazier of Golden Gate. Pro- fessor J. T. Wallace of the California Bap- tist College read a short regorc on ‘‘Some New Methods in Sunday-school Werk.” The sermon which was to be delivered by Rev. C. H. Hobart was postponed on account of the lack of time until Thursday evenin, 5 It was announced that services would ba held in the Baptist Chapel car, which is sidetracked in Berkeley, this afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. e HOTEL ARRIVALS, GRAND HOTEL.
