THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, MAY 22, 1896. 13 : DOCTORS FIGHT ON THE FERRY, Satisfaction Demanded for an Insult to a Wife. AN APOLOGY REFUSED. Drs. Cranz and Cahusac Resort to Physical Force on the Lower Deck. SEPARATED BY THE CAPTAIN. Both Men Tell Their S ory—Cahusac an Employe in Wilder’s- Office. OaxrAND OFFIcE SAN FrANCIECO CALL,] 905 Broadway, May 21. { There was a genuine bare-knuckle con- test on the narrow-gauge ferry-boat that left San Francisco at to-night. principals were Dr. Louis Y. Cranz and Dr. C. B. Cshusac, and the cause of the was an alleged insult to Dr. e and daughter by Dr. Cahusac. lasted several minutes, and the 's crosses the bay at that crowd that time made no effort to stop the contest- | ants, as they both showed an inclination to play fair. Finally the captain left tt pilot-house and went on the lower deck and separated the angry medicos. Dr. Cahusac got decidedly the worst of it all the way through, and his knuckles were bleeding freely at the close. His face showed marks of punishment and he was greatly in need of breath. Dr. Cranz did not altogether escape punlshment, but his camages were com- paratively slight. During the encounter enough expres- sions escaped the men’s lips to let the in- terested throng know that a woman was at the bottom of the whole affair, but the doctors were so excited that it was difficult to tell who was the aggrieved or who was the transgressor. After being separated Dr. Cranz rushed over to his panting adversary and shouted with upraised fist: “1f you don’t apologize to me before to- morrow 1'll beat the life out of you.” As the men left the boat they were asked regarding the trouble. Dr. Cranz spoke very freely. He said: ‘“That man Cahusac was a neighbor of ours for & long time. My office is in San Francisco, and I live at 1411 St. Charle: tre«t, Alameda. Cahusac is an auditor or something in Mr. Wilder’s office. He asadoctor. Some time ago he of- iered an insult to my little daughter. Sbe told her mother, an my wrath, did not at once teill me. After he attempied to make love to my and bas followed up his attentions, and at last she told me of his insults. 1 found him on the boat to-n rded an immediate apciogy. to apologize, and I proceeded to rself some other way. Unless he DOS “I befriended him some time ago when be was hard up, and he repaysme by in- I shali report his conduct to Mr. will care to retain such an employe.” Dr. Cahusac was surprised at his treat- ment. He banded out a card which read, “Dr. C. B. Cahusac, 1416 St. Charles street, Alameda.” Central avenue. “It is all a surprise to me,” said Dr. Cahusac to-night. “We have always been friends, and I am at a loss to account for it at all. Iam sure that Dr. Cranz has no grievance against me, and I refuse to apologize. Itis all very strange. I sup- pose I shall get the worst of it, but 1 really don’t know what it all means.” Dr. Cahusac did not ride up from the mole in the same coach with Dr. Cranz. ELEVENTH - AMENOMENT, The Alameda Woman's Suffrage Convention Opens Bril- liantly. “The Call’s” Espousal of the Cause Meets With the Assemblage’s H:arty Approval. ALAMEDA, CaL., May 21.—The Woman Suffrage Convention, held under the aun- spices of the Political Equality Club of Ala- meca, was called to order this afternoon at | 3 o’clock by Mrs. C. L. Wood, president of the society, in Armory Hall. The stage was festooned with ivy and eschscholtzias and looked exceedingly handasome. Quite 400 lJadies were present, but the edict of not wearing hats was forgotten, only some twenty ladies appearing in their seats minus their headzear. On the siage were seated members of the two locul organizations—the Political Equality Clab and the Woman's Aurxiliary. Mrs, Wood introduced Miss Mary G. Hay from Indianapolis, who is a National organizer of the Woman’s Suffrage Asso- ciation, and she took charge of the meet- ing. Aiter a hymn and prayer Miss Hay in clear and concise tones threw compli- ments at Alameda. She said it was the banner county and that the ladies of the ci! had planned the most systematic scheme for obtaining voters in favor of amendment eleven. She recapitulated Susan B. Anthony’s work in this direction duaring the last half century, and drew at- tention to the fact that twenty-eight States allowed women to vote in school matters, one in municipal, and three—Wyoming, Colorado and Utah—gave them equal rights with male voters. She alluded to the badge and asked ea:h one to wear it 10 provoke discussion. “The majority of the press in the State is of ‘the movement,” she said. “When THE CALL of San Francisco nobly came out and stated in its editorials and columns that it would fight for the pas- sage of the amendment, it took a step it will never regret. It brought other papers to their senses, and they are now advo- cating the measure, though not so posi- tively as THE CALL. The ministers, too, are in line on the question, and we hope the masses are also. Sonow we are stand- ing on vantage ground. Yet unless every one works to secure its passage it is likely not to carry.” Mrs. Wood then formally welcomed The | Mrs. Cranz, fearing | . If he does not apolo- all hunt him up to-mor- ier, and I do not think the railroad He lives at present at 3265 Miss Hay to Alameda as one of the Wise' Women from across the Rockies. Miss Hay m‘ponded, and then Mrs. N. F. Bowen of Alameda delivered an address on “The Ideal Government.”” The gist of the address was a contention that every- thing to be ideal or perfect must contain a duality of male and female qualities. Rev. Mrs. E. T. Wilkes followed witha stirrine address on “Why Do I Want the Bailot?” She said: “I want the ballot, not because I think if women are granted votes it will bring about the millennium; not because I think it will make all women all-wise, all-virtuous and all-powerful, but because I think there is an abnormal em- phasis put upon sex.” Miss Severance, in her trenchant style, {foliowed with a aiscourseon “Woman as a Taxpayer,” snd then the convention closed for the day. In the evening Miss Yates addressed a larger assemblage than in the afternoon. Quite half of the audience was co_mnased of men. Her address was a historical and humorous discription of the inequalities women have lived and suffered under dur- ing the past hundred years. The various flimsy excnses ior not attending conven- tions’ and discussing this question were treated to kindly sarcasms highly enjoyed, The butchers and their wives of Alameda, all going to Shell Mound Park vesterday, was ailated upon, and she wondered what woula have been said if all the crush and jamming had been of men and women going to vote. To-morrow afternoon Rev. Anna Shaw will use her famous ballot-box, and in the evening she will aadress the male voter. Board of Education. ALAMEDA, Car.,, May 21.—Only three members of the board attended the meeting Tuesday evening. Three applications for positions as teacher and one for & janitor- ship were received. Mrs. E. M. North re- signed her position as teacher in the Wil- son school. The county appropriation was notified to be $6601 68. It was resolved to grant a half holiday to the school chil- dren on May 29. Accounts to the amount of $372 were passed for payment. The principal of the high school reported $209 25 as the net proceeds of the late en- tertainment in Armory Hall, and he was | instructed to handle the money for the | purchase of snitable books for the high | school library. The school superintend- ent called the attention of the board to the fact that 672 children had not attended school during the past year, and pointed out that section 64 of the act of 1874 pro- vided for compulsory education. The matter was referred to the judiciary com- mittee. The census marshal’s report was accepted. The compulsory law provides that chil- dren must attend schoo! between the ages of 8 ana 14 years. The Jaw is a dead letter in the State. The School Superiniendent and report the non-attendants to the ju- diciary committee. Alameda Republicans. ALAMEDA, Car.. Ma; —The Regular Republican Club met this evening in the Linderman Opera-house. Fifty members were present. The delegzates to Sacra- mento gave a lengthy report of their do- ings at the convention. It was decided to organize precinct committees at the earli- est possible moment. Mr. Walker of O k- | land stated that it was the intention to or- | ganize a young men’s Republican club for the county, the first meeting to be held in Fraternal Hall, Oakland, to-morrow night. A drill corps for the Presidential cam- paign is to be formed and in future the club meetin s will be held on Saturday night in G. A. R. Hall. Two Inquests. ALAMEDA, Carn., May 21. —Evidence of a negative character was taken by the Cor- | oner to-day as to when and where the un- known woman and man met their deaths at the beginning of the week. The jury in each case returned a verdict of death” by drowning. Anextraordinary conflict of tes- timony is apparent between the evidence of J. W. Johnson, the master of the Annie Eliza, and Mrs, Charles Evans, who lives about seventy feet away from where the woman’s body was found. Mrs. Evans persists in ing the Annie Eliza came in on Wednesday, and tne captaiu that he did not get in until late Friday night. Matthew Schoeider Dead.

DUET0 A BROKEN FLIGE Serious Accident to an Electric Car Near Lake Merritt Dam. 2 It Left the Track, Lurched Violently and Badly Injured Many Pas. sengers. OARLAND OFFICE 8AN FrANcIsco Ca Ly} 908 Broadway, May 20. | A broken flange ob the wheel of a car of the Haywards electric road caused a serious accident yesterday morning. The car was avproaching Oakland, and had crossed the dam over Lake Merritt in safety. Asit took the curve at the east end of the dam the car jumped the track, and several ‘passengers were injured. There were seventeen passengers on the car, and they were jostled and thrown about with considerable violence. One of the passengers, named Johnson, says he was projected through a window. There were several passengers standing on the front platform when the accident occurred They were shot off, and landed in the. mud. W. B. Zimmerman thus explains the catastrophe: ‘‘The accident was cansed by the breaking of the flange on the forward wheel on the left-hand side, that is, the | <ide toward the south. The piece of the flange which broke off was about six inches long. The car had met with an. other accident shortly before on the trip to town. We did not_discover that until after the accident on Twelith street. In the first accident the same wheel lost an- other piece of its flange. It dropped it on Fifth avenue, near Sixteenth street. The piece of the flange that broke off there was about a foot anSa half long. That piece was also picked up and taken back to the power-house. I had the car running at the rate of about seven miles an hour at the time of the accident. That was a little slower than the usual rate of speed, and the car was going up grade at the time.” Dr. Wendte Called East. OAKLAND, CAL, May 21.—Rev.C. W. ‘Wendte of the First Unitarian Church of this city is now in Boston on bis wedding | tour, and has been invited tofill the pulpit of the Church of the Unity of Boston. Last year tie Rev. Mr. Wendte tendered his resignation of the Oakland pulpit, but then it was because of some dissatisfaction with the way in which the church finances had been cunducted, and to give the con- gregation the privilege of choosing a suc- cessor if it desired to do so. But the church spoke as with one voice and requested the pastor to remain. The burden of the debt, which had been troubling him, was light- | ened a little. Graduation at Snell's.

L. Gaston, pastor of tho Cornell Baptist Church at Vallejo, is obtaining data for the purpose of preaching a sermon on C. P. Huntington’s protection from justice on account of his wealth. He has writien to W. B. Soule, formerly president of the | County Federation of Labor, to help nim. Rev. W. L. Gaston suys: ‘‘You will re- member that in the sacred volume we read that King Solomon made golden tar- gets and golden shields. This, it occurs to me, would be an excellent foundation for a lesson on the issues of the day. Imight hnd occasion to denounce the encroachment of concentrated wealth | upon every division of government, its | oppression of labor, together with its utter disregard of right and law. As you know, all archers to-day shoot at the golden target. Many high-handed criminals vi | late all law with impunity; plunder ine | | Eublic, then evade justice and escape retri- | | bution by hiding béehind golden shields. | “If you have any data that bear directly | upon the abnormal greed of man, or of the | rich escaping t .e day of judgment because | | of money, will you kindly put them in my possession? If you have any data con cerning the attempt to arrest C. P. Hunt- ington for violating the interstate com- merce act by issuing a free pass to an Oakland attorney named Stone, will you | send them also?” | The request of the Vallejo clergyman was _handea to Thomas J. Roberis, the A. R. U. leader of the last great strike, who replied to it. 'HE DREW TWO PENSIONS. Dual Existence of Albert Cox,; Also Kncwn as Law on. Secret Service Agent Harris Wants a Man Who Defrauded the Government. OARLAND OFFICE SAN FrANCIScO CALL,) 908 Broadway, May 21. | | Albert T. Cox, an aged G. A. R. veteran, | is charged with the serious offense of hav- ing fraudulently obtained a second pension | | irom the United States Government under an assumed name after having hLad one issued under his own name. As a conse- | quence Deputy United States Secret S vice Agent Harris has been searching this city for the past two days with a warrant for bis arrest, but as yet has found no trace of him. From the story told it would appear that | he has discounted the story of “Dr. Jekylland Mr. Hyde’ for a year or more. During this time he |:as been an inmate of the Yountville Soldiers’ Home as Albert T. Cox and also at the Santa Monica Sol- diers’ Home, but as another individual, | being known there as George Lawson. It | is under this name that he 1s charged with | having secured the second pension and for | which he is wanted. Cox is an unmarried man about 60 years | of age, and is said to be a very shrewd in- | dividual, notwithstanding he has a strong | liking for liquor. For several months he had been receiving mail directed to George | Lawson, but threw off suspicion by telling | that Lawsou was sn old soldier friend of | his, who Jived in the Hawaiian Islands, | and that he was trying to secure a pension | for him. The pension was granted Lawson by the | Government about three weeksago, and he received back pay to the amount of $166 at | the same time. Soon after this Cox came | up from Santa Monica with his pockets full of money. He has drawn a pension | | as Cox for about two years. At Santa | Monica the superintendent says tiere is | no Cox; but that there isa George Law- | son.

They Are After the Men. BERKELEY, Can, May 21.—Between now and election time next November every voter in Berkeley will be interviewed by some member of the local Citizens’ Suffrage Society’s campaign corps. A plan bas been adopted. by the ladies through which every voter will be seen personally and prevailed upon to sapport the cause of equal suffrage as indicated by the proposed eleventh amendment to the State constitution. They have prepared iists of names and divided the town into | working districts. Voters who do not | readily yield to the solicitations of the | ladies will be set down on a separate list, so when one has done all one could with | first; a particular man another will be turned on him. If the second lady does not suc- ceed a third one will try her fortune on the obstinate voter. Work has already been commenced and a list of the supporters and nou-support- ers of the suffrage cause is being kept by Mrs. Eleanor Carlisle. The conyention held yesterday afternoon and evening im- bued "the suffrage workers of Berkeley with new interest and enthusiasm in the cause. One of the leaders of thecause in Berkeley remarked to-day that her co- laborers had put on the full armor of the cause and were prepared for the campaign to be waged in the hope of striking out tbe word ‘‘male’’ from that part of the State constitution which refers to the voting franchise.

OAKLAND OFFICE 8AN Fraxcisco CALL,] 908 Broadway, May 21. | T. L. Barker, one of the wealthiest men in the city, has stated several reasons why men of means will not come to Oakland or inyest here. An articie in last Monday’s Cavy, relat- ing to the little that has been done by rich men in the way of adorning the city, has prompted a very interesting reply from Mr. Barker. He writes: “When it is said ‘there is not a single vestige of evidence tending to show that a public-spirited man ever lived in Oak- land’ some explanation is necessary. Ex- ception must be made of the Chabot Home and the Chabot Observatory. The one was given and endowed, and has been for years and is now active and useful. The other was wholly given as it now stands equipped to the city, and by the city ac- cepted. And the same city that accepted the gift will not to-day allow the water company, established and to a large ex- tent, owned by Mr. Chabot while he lived, and now by his heirs, to furnish water to the butluing given by him. He also gave the Ladies’ Relief Society and Old Ladies’ Home 500 shares of water stock, worth then $50,000—worth now $20,000—which is still owned by that society. ““There has always been a somewnat vicious fecling toward men of means liv- ing in Oakland, which has tended to sour them; and within the past three years that feeling has been intensified, and is now daily encouraged, and exists to such an extent as to prevent men of means from coming here to live and bringing their money with them. No wealthy man in his right mind would now come to this city to live. We have an established rep- utation, and our city rulers seem to be la- boring, not in the interest of Oakland and its citizens, but seeing how they can spite Davie; not for one moment considering bis suggestions and vetoes, but endeavor- ing to sit on them, without any consider- ation, because Davie suggests. “Notwithstanding there has never been a time when there were so many reasons for fixing a very low tax levy as now, they seem to be trying their very best to get rid of all the money in sight and to throw mud at any one who suggests a low rate of taxation.” HISTORY OF A DAY.
