The Times to Be Sold To-Day to Satisfy Judgments Held by Reporters. OAKLAND OrrFicE SAN FRANCISOO CALL,% 908 Broadway, October 10. A conflict of o 1 has arisen regard- ing the right to control the Webster-street ago Mayor Davie bridge. Some mon Lamont asking that wrote to Secret k somethir done to remedy the present state of on the estuary. He set forth that the bridges were worm-eaten and in danger of collapsing, and that one pridge wculd be of more service 1 the two yresent being used. The rn Pacific Railroad Company has some rights over the Webster-street bridge that will not expire for many years, 8o it that the railroad, the Gov- ment the county come together arrange a plan that would be mutu- agreeable both as to design and to cost. Some weeks ago the whole matter was referred to the District Attorney, and to- he rendered a long opinion to the | hat the Webster-street bridge is nder the control of the county. A great deal of verbiage is attached to the iion, but the following paragraph clear- ses the view held by the District good ir rom the reading of the trans- | 1ed, that the Webster-street cted under a statute which tnt cerfain commissioners be ap- city of Oakland and the town- | of Alameda” for seid_purpose, and that | equently thereto, as will' be perceived by ce 10 said (ranscript, the Legislature passed an act placing the bridge under | ol of the Board of Supervisors of the | of Alameda.

The Livermore Franchise Is Taken Into the Supreme Court. G. P. Vandercook is being considerably hampered by the-operations. of the dis- gruntled bidders who were not awarded the franchise for an electric road to Liver- more. The franchise was awarded Mr. Vandercook, and after learning what Van- dercook’s bid was two parties named Mac- donald and Thomson offered what they considered a little higher bid and then demanded that the Supervisors award the franchise to them. The Supervisors were advised that they had no power to auction off franchises after the bids were received and gave the franchise to Vandercook. The case was taken before Judge Ellsworth and he up- held the Supervisors. Now the case has been taken into the Supreme Court and several months will elapse before it is reached. In the meantime Vandercook cannot commence to build, and what promised a lot of work during the winter will be delaved till next spring. Mr. Vandercook said to-day that the ap- peal was simply taken to block matters; acdona Thomson were not that M railro n and were working for other es, and that the natural uncertainty that would exist pending an appeal would rove very annoying. Meanwhile the ‘andercook Company, which already road from Broadway, Oakland, to e, is continuing to secure rights of and to complete its surveys. A NEWSPAPER SALE. The Sheriff Will Offer the Oakland Times Under the Hammer. To-morrow i the date set by the Sheriff for the sale of the Oakland Times. Many deals have been reported, but up till to- ht nothing definite is known. It seemsasif the reporters’ claims will eat up the paper. Surpris¢ was expressed when it became known that C. L.

Mr. Machd is the present proprietor of the paper in the interest of | judgments | the stockholders, but the against the paper were obtained prior to the assignment. When the paper comes up for sale Maxwell will be able to pur- chase the whole paper for the price of the judgments, $379, if nobody bids against im. Discussed the Tax Levy. The City Council spent anothgr evening discussing the tax levy. The ordinance introduced by Heitman embodying the Mayor’s ideas of how the dollar limit can be made to run the city was brought up. Councilm Buckland moyed that the street-lighting fund be reduced from 1414 to 9} cents, and the 5 cents be added to the schoo! fund, making 8 cents for the schools. This was carried by the uenal vote of 7 to4, and then Heitman said that the Council might just as well accept.the Mayor's figures now as in the future, be- cause Davie had assured him that nothing would be safe from the veto except his (the Mayor's) levy. Expensive ““Sport.’ In Justice Clift's court to-day those who attended the dog-fight at Bottomley’s barn early Sunday morning, September 22, were given an idea of what awaits them if brought before him for sentence.

BERKELEY MASS-MEETING A Thorough Discussion of the School Bond Ques- tion Was Had. Students Debate—A New Greek Letter Fraternity Formed at the University. BERKELEY, Cirn.,, Oct. 10.—A mass- meeting was held in South Berkeley last night to discuss the question of bonding the town for school buildings. Boone of the Board of Education delivered | an address favoring the construction ofa | high school building, a grammar school at West Berkeley and one at Dwight way. He advocated bonding the town for $100,000. Principal Waterman of the East Berkeley schools spoke of the recent rapid increase in the number of pupils in attendance at the local schools, and urged the immedi- ate importance of new schools. School Di- rector Norton and Town Trustee Gage favored bonds for $150,000. Trustee Cripps gave it as his opinion that $100,000 was sufficient. Trustee Hoff stated that he felt bound by his constituents of West Berkeley to oppose a high school and to vote against bonding the town for over $75,000. Trustee Martin said he would not vote for any bonding proposition that did not provide 1orahi5 school. The mass- meeting finally adopted the following resolution. Resolved, That we have confidence in our Board of Education and will vote for bonds in any amount they ask for. The Board of Education has already asked for $100,000 worth of bonds, A New Fraternity. A charter of Chi Psi has been grantea to a number of students of the University of California. Chi Psi is one of the oldest organized in Union College in 1841.

The judges, Pro- fessor Jones, Dr. Hengstler and Mr. Sut- ton, decided in favor of the latter three, but gave Messrs Mott, Hatch ana Kelly credit for superior language and delivery. Disturbing the Peace. M. Fischel last night swore out a war- rant charging Mrs. D. Fischel, his divorced wife, with disturbing the peace. Fischel claims that she encouraged their ckild to throw stones and dirt at him and that she answered his remonstrances with a volley of epithets. CORNER IN STAMPS, The One l.)ollhr Label on Unwater- marked Paper Said to Be Worth $5. From information obtained at the Post- office in this City it would appear that there is some one in the East operating to secure a corner in the §1 stamps that were issued to supersede the Columbian stamps. All the stamps of the United States up to quite recently have been printed on plain paper, but owing to the discovery of wholesale forgeries of 2.cent stamps in Canada the Postoffice Department, in or- der to throw an aaditional safeguard around the manufacturing of stamps, or- dered that all printing should be on water- marked paper. At the time this order went forth buta comparatively few of the $1 stamps had bean‘fnmed on the unwater- marked paper, and it now appears that a St. Louis firm of stamp-dealers at once set | to work to secure all it could of these | stamps, Their purchases soon resulted in a dearth of this denomination and a new lot had to be orderedsfrom the Bureau of Engraving and Printing at Washington. This supply is on the watermarked paper, and in consequence those that were issned on the plain paper are bound to be wortha considerable premium, Only 2000 of the $1 unwatermarked stamps were received in this Citg. and of these 1200 were secured by the St. Louis speculators. They first sent a telegram to | the Postmaster asking him to reserve this quantity and then forwarded the remit. tance for them. This purchase nearly de- leted the local office of this vaiue, as it eft but 300 on hand. A new =ubpfiy was at once ordered, but they were on water- marked paper, and the 300 of the rarer character were soon sold for regular use. Ever since it leaked out among the local stamp-collectors that a corner was being made in these stamps there have been nu- President | SPEAK-EAIES"" RAIDED, Berkeley’s Marshal Strongly Enforces the New Liquor Ordinance. ’ SEVEN DEALERS IN TROUBLE. An Exciting Day In the Usually Quiet Unlversity Town — Ar= rests to Be Made. BERKELEY, Oct. 10, 1895.—~The wave of reform has reached Berkeley, and there is prospect not only of ‘‘dry Sundays,’ but dry weekdays as well. Allthe ‘‘speak- easies” are closed, the cigar-stores with small rooms in the rear no longer sell “temperance drinks,” the billiard-hall signs reading ‘soda’” are now true to reality, and ‘the drug-store clerks ask would-be purchasers of a private supply of fluids that cheer, for physicians’ pre- scriptions. This sweeping change in Berkeley life was wrought in one short hour this morning when Marshal Lloyd and several deputies started forth to exert the authority accorded them by the new liquor ordinance of Berkeley. The vi of the officers were as startling as bomb- shells to the unsuspecting keepers of the various places where Berkeley users of liquor have been wont to satisfy their ap- petites for the various liquids which are legally supposed never to approach within | a mile of the University of California. For years half a dozen or more cigar-stores, | hotels, cafes and drugstores have freely | sold drinks in sufficient quantity to satisfy | the wants of an accomplished explorer of the cocktail routes of San Francisco. They have readily admitted total strangers to the bar of intemperance, no questions being asked, no open sesame being necessary but the price. Marshals have succeeded one another, temperance agitators have come and gone, and candi- dates have taken pledge after pledge to close the ‘‘speak-easies,” but the liquor- men have smiled and still continued to quench thirsts of all kinds. The immeaiate cause of the tremendous change is an ordinance recently passed by the] Town Trustees. Its provisions supply the one great requisite needed to enable en- forcement of Berkeley's liquor laws—the right of search. Hitherto there was no way for an officer to secure evidence of violation of the law, except by finding some one who was willing to testify to having entered the sanctum sanctorura of a “temperance house’” and sampled its beverages. But the new law forbids even the storing of liguor in any part of the town without a license, and permits the Marshal ostensi- bly to guard against dangers of fire from inflammatory liquids, to enter any estab- lishment to which his suspicions may be dli'fected and explore its recesses for him- self. A small room, with a pretty little bar, in the rear of George H. Stricker’s cigar store, on Shattuck avenue, opposite Berkeley sta- tion, was entered by Marshal Lloyd, in company with W. H. Bone, and a few minutes later the executive officer of Berkeley was loading an express wagon with some excellent whisky and a valuable stock of wines and beer. Fonzo's cafe, kept by Fred Fonzo, on Center street, near Shattuck avenue, was entered by Lloyd and Deputy Rawson,and the wagon received another stock of contraband goods, The California Hotel, conducted by J. Doran_on the corner ol Shattuck street and University avenue, was visited by Depug Marshal Esmond and_Deputy Sheriff Davis, and the Acheson Hotel, on the opposite corner of the same streets, managed by A. Berg, also received an offi- cial visit from the officers of the law, who had by this time received a supply of liguors. he billiard-hall of 8. Salomon was searched, but no spirituous beverages were found there. r. Salomon’s sign, “Soda and Cignrs,"apgeand to be fully descriptive of the salable stock he owns. Their labors over in the immediate vicin- ity of Berkeley station, the officers turned their attention to other stores in the town. A notion, soda water and cigar store on Telegraph avenue, just across the street from the northeast entrance to the univer- sity grounds, was entered, and the officers found three demijohns of fire-water, eight bottles of pale lager and a bottle of native wine. The stock seemed to be small consider- ing the reputation the stationery-store, which is owned by Mrs. Silvershield, has long enjoved, and the officers proceeded to pry for further discoveries. Four dozen more bottles of })ale lager and five gallons of whisky were found in a dark closet in one of Mrs. Silvershield’s rooms. In a stationery-store kept by Mrs. Mullagher, opposite Mrs. Silvershield’s, Deputies Raw- son and Osmond found four dozen bostles of the same vale lager, with which Mrs. Silvershield has presumably been regalin; her customers, and four demijohns o% stronger stuff. Mrs. Mullagher had a trapdoor in front of her establishment, but it proved of no avail against the Sherlock Holmes of Berkeley. A few bottles of beer were found in a_store kept by Mrs. Thompson at North Berkeley station. This completed the day’sfinds of the officers, and the whole collection, barrels, cases, crates, demijohns and bottles was carted to the Town Hall, in the lobby of which there is now a stock of liquor, prob- ably the largest ever gathered together in Berkzley. Everything in the way of ‘“bracers” is there, There are wines, beers, whisky, brandy, and even the mysterious bottled concoctions that help to give a drugstore- appearance to large saloons. ‘he proprietors of the seven places in which liquor was found will all be arrested under Berkeley’s new liquor ordinance. The charge to be placed against the per- gons named is that of storing liquor and nolding it for sale in violation of the ordi- nance. Marshal Lluxd stated this evening that he has no evidence of the actual sale of liquor by any of the parties mentioned, but of the storing there can be no gues- tion, and convictions are’ certain in every case if the ordinance stands in the courts. The ordinance in question provides as a penalty for its violation a fine or imprison- ment, or both, the fine to be not under $50 and not over $300, and the imprisonment for not less than one month and not over three months. The raid has caused much excitement in Berkeley. It is the most successful move ever made against the illicit liquor traffic in the town and gives promise of future rigid enforcement of Berkeley’s liquor ordinances. The total value of the liquor secured is about $300. It s expected that those who are to be arrested will vigorously contest gainst the new ordinance, but local lights in the legal profession say there are no holes in the law. The only places among those raided to- | day that received any patronage from uni- versity students were those of Mrs. Mui- lagher and Mrs. Silvershield. These two sfores were within ten yards of the univer- sity grounds. It has long been common reron that liquor of all kinds was to be ob- tained in the places in question, and few students were unaware of the iact. WILL WATOH STREET WORK. George W. Elder Made Special Expert by the Street Committee. merous inquires mnd; for the $1 stamp, and those who are fortunate enough to ossess a copy of the much-sought-for abel already value it at $5. . George W. Elder was officially appointed special expert on street work by the Street Comuittee of the Board of Supervisors yesterday. The action was formulated in the following shape: That George W. Elder be appointed on behalf of the Street Committec as the expert of said committes to inspect and Teport on the pave- ment of roadways and their construction, also as to the construction of sewers and cesspools, to serve without compensation, Elder heads the list of special men em- ployed by Supervisor Spreckels, chairman of the Street Committee, to check the frauds on street work, so he is fully paid for his services. The appointment was made because of the In\ugs discovered lately in street work. The Grand Jury is investigating them. The Guerrero-street and Twelfth-street jobs, both discovered by Elder, were strongly condemned by the Supervisors on investigation. The indications are that the Grand Jury does not intend to let them drop, and that the culprits will eventually e@umshed for the attempts to swindle the City. In both cases Street Superintendent Ashworth’s men made no complaint, and passed the jobs as satis- factory. The contractors undoubtedly ‘would have been paid for the rotten work but for the protest of Expert Elder. He will have nearly as much say hereafter as the Street Superintendent about the ac- ceptance of street work. HELPING OUT ALAMEDA, Large Taxpayers Come to the Relief of the Treas- ury. The Suspension of Claims Against the City WIill Not Long Continue. ALAMEDA, Car, Oct. 10.—The ecity will not be long without money to pay claims if large taxpayers follow the ex- ample of the Alameda Savings Bank and the Encinal Building and Loan Associa- | tion, which institutions intend to pay their tax bills as soon as they are made out. This will be done in a few days, so that the city treasury will have ample money shortly to allow the Trustees to order war- rants drawn and salaries paid. The Alameda Savings Bank will pay taxes on all the mortgages held by it, and as these aggregate abont $7000, it will help i out considerably. The Encinal ng and Loan Association pays taxes to the amount of $1045, and this sum will be paid as soon as the bill is presented. Taxes have already commenced to come in, and Treasurer Wheeler is only too glad to receive them and not make any point ns:o the bills not having been made out ye Olsen Gets Three Months. Peter Olsen, convicted on Saturday last on a charge of battery for beating his wife, was sentenced yesterday by Justice Swasey to three months’ imprisonment in the County Jail. Counsel for the defense made an impassioned plea and moved for a new trial on the ground of irregularities in the proceedings of the court in permit- ting testimony to_be introduced referring to mortgages, a divorce and impeachment in another matter which prejudiced the case of the defendant and prevented him from having a fair trial. Olsen got off very lightly, as it is currently reported that he made threats against the life of the Justice, and might have been sentenced to pay a fine of $1000 and six months’ im- prisonment. Opposition to Sieben’s Insolvency. The petition of Philip Sieben to be de- clared an insolvent debtor is being bitterly opposed by the Wheeler & Wilson Sewing achine Company. Counsel for Sieben has demurred to the allegations of the creditors and claims that the reason for the opposition is not provided for in the insolvent act of 1895, and his action in 1893 cannot now be used against him in reference to his final discharge. Sieben deeded his property to his wife in 1893. Colonel Mendell’s Estimate. The committee recently appointed to memorialize Congress to incfilde a suffi- cient sum in its harbor appropriation to build the proposed dam and floodgate at the entrance to San Leandro bay has re- ceived a reply from Colonel Mendell. An estimate of $65,000 has been made by the latter as the amount required to make the improvement. Bicycle Parade. The Alameda cyclers and the Diamond Club cyclers had a “lantern parade” on Park street to-night, and more than 100 riders were in line. To-morrow the Ala- meda cyclers give an entertainment at Linderman Opera-house. This will mark the reopening of the house after its thor- ough'renovation and improvement. Assaulted His Companion. ‘William Spicer was arrested this morn- ing by Constable von Kapff on a charge of essaulting William Gardner. The men were on a narrow-gauge train and Spicer jammed Gardner between the door, badly catting his head and crushing his fingers. Tuolumne County Pioneers. The pioneers of Tuolumne County now living in Alameda, prominent among whom are Henry Sevening and Dr. W. P. Gibbons, will hold their annual reunion and banquet at the Rose House, on Ninth street, Oakland, on Saturday evening. HELP FOR ERRING GIRLS. Parlor Mecting by the Board of Mn‘n- agers of the Girls’ Training Home. The board of managers of the California Girls’ Training Home held a parlor meet- ing at 2524 Gough street, where they were entertained by Mrs. W.J. Stringer, yes- terday. Miss L. H. Baker, the retiring matron of the home, gave an interesting address on the work and needs of the institution. She will leave Monday for the East, where she will ill numerous engagements in the presentation of pleas for work and workers among the slums. Her home for the pres- ent will be Atlautic Highlands, N. J. Bhe will be accompanied on her home- ward journey by Miss Mayme Holcombe, the assistant matron of the Girls’ Home, who will continue to take an active inter- est in reform work among women in Louisville, Ky., and elsewhere. Mrs. R. L. W. Davis, the presiding offi- cer, gpoke of the necessity for individual work on the part of the friends of the home, and Mrs. Mason, the treasurer, said the treasury must be replenished or the home would have to be closed. The ab- sence of many of the liberal iriends of the home from the City dunn;rche summer had crippled its finances. The need of a larger home was emphasized by all the speakers. o A lady who is interested in the institu- tion will give her services in its manage- ment until a successor for Miss Baker is secured., — e —— Sued for Insurance. The case of Christine Selby of Seattle against the Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York was submitted on arguments in the United Btates Circuit Court yesterday. John 1by, the husband of the complainant, took out three policies in the company, one for $5000 and iwo more for $2500 each.” 'After the death of the husband the defendant refused to Ppay the polieles on the ground that it had dis- covered that at the time the policies were taken out the insured was suffering from dis- eases which he had concealed from the exam- ining physicians. Mrs. Selby sued in the lower court and received judgment. — s e A Barber Arrested. L. P. Lippert, a barberat 4 Post street, was arrested yesterday on a warrant charging him with “keeping open and conducting a barber- shop after 12 u. on & legal holiday.” He was re- leased on depositing 510 bail. NEW USE FOR HAIRPINS, Electric Carmen Required to Suggest a Substitute for Them. PUZZLING QUESTIONS ASKED. Conductors Must Also Be Able to Tell the Ages of Young= sters on Sight. OAKLAND OFFIcE SAN FrANCISCO CAL!,,} Broadway, October 10. A new system of employing motormen and conductors on the most extensive elec- tric road system in Alameda County went into effect to-day. The large number of accidents, the numerous verdicts returned by Coroners’ juries censuring the railroad companies, and the growing tendency of courts to award heavy damages to muti- lated victims, have made it imperative that the many electric road companies do all in their power to protect themselves. Here- after any one who wants to be employed on the Oakland Consolidated lines will have to serve a few weeks’ apprenticeship before taking a stiff examination to admit him 10 the company’s service. The examination paper handed to mo- tormen contains thirty-seven questions. Some of the questions are easily an- swered, but the following queries indicate the general nature of the written examina- tion: If a person should get in front of your car and you could not brake your car in time to ve said person, what is the first thing you would do? If you should hear an explosion on your car ‘what would you look for first? Suppose there was an obstruction on the track so you could not proceed, what would you do with your carand passengers? Suppose in ascending & Emde your wheels slipped, what would you do uppose your brake shouid get out of order from any cause, how would you stop your car? Suppose you ‘find Jour moters “bucking,” what would you do first? The twenty-fitth query is indeed a co- nundrum to the average passenger and uu;gms anew use for & leading article of ladies’ toilet. Suppose you had used your last fuse and there should hl‘rpen to be no lady on board to give you the traditional hairpin, what would you do in that case? The examination papers for conductors contain twenty-six questionsand are much more general. Among these queries are the followin Suppose a_passenger gets on your car with several small children and you are uncertain about their ages, what should youdo? Suppose a passenger got on your car with a transfer after the time punched in the margin had expired, what would you do? Suppose you had a collision or a person got hurt getting on or off your car or got struck by your car, what would you do? SH;R)OIQ that through mistake you had col- lected a fare from one person twice, what :vol‘nl;l you do on having your attention called o it Suprose & passenger should break a pane of glass in your car, what would you do aboutit?
