ARRESTED ON AN ATTACHMENT Frank Attello Accused of Maltreating a Nine-Year-Old Child. OAKLAND, CAr., Aug. 13.—Frank At- tello was arrested upon an attachment to-day issued by Judge Wood in the Po- lice Court this morning. He was out on a $5 bail and forfeited it. He 1s charged er of Mrs. Anna Baccilieri of 1008 Twenty- first street. Mrs. Baccilieri keeps a few boarders, among whom is Attello. She says the latter has been very overbearing to herself and daughter Treasa for some time past. Last Saturday Attello slapped Treasa in the face, at which she told him to mind his own business, as he was not her boss. He made a rush for her and she ran into a room occupied by Miss Juno Bertalane and locked the door. He kicked in the door, knocked the child down and kicked her body and lower limbs until she was nearly unconscious. The girl's body is a mass of black and blue discolorations, showing where the heavy boot had struck her and bearing out her mother’s statements. He was re- leased upon giving $100 bail to-night.

Charges in- a Populist Organ De- nounced as Base and Truthless Calumnies. OARLAND OFFICE SAN Frawcisco CALL,) 908 Broadway, Aug. 13. The Army and Navy League held a meeting to-night and the large hallon Eigbth street was packed to the doors. Judge McElroy presided and addresses were made by Miss Addie Ballou, Senator Carpenter and Mrs. Sarah C. Borland. Senator Eli Denison presented the league with poitraits of the Republican Presi- dential candidates and was accorded a rising vote of thanks. The following resolutions were read and adopted unanimously: WHEREAS, The Army and Navy Republican Lengue is & body of citizens, formerly Union soidiers and sailors, organized upon that basis and upon the common belief that the Repub- lican party is best qualified to administer the Government, which our members on land and sea helped to save; and such citizens, whose loyalty has been proved in the service and in battle, have at least as good right as dow, they guessed the rest. The whole trouble began over the disap- | pearance of some kindling wood from the | al-box, and Halsey expressed the | nion that Mrs. Herbst knew where it | went. This was denied, and one night | Mrs. Herbst went to the cabin and exe- | cuted summary revenge on Halsey. As many of the neighbors thought he de- served it as pitied him. Henninger gave his age as 63, while Mrs. Herbst is but 35 and does not even | appear so old. He is the owner of consid- | erable proverty in this city aud he also owns houses and land at Vallejo and Be- nicia. He is rated as a capitalist and re- sides on Seventh street, near Market. A flagman named Stanton, who was on duty this afternoon, said that it was re- ported that Henninger had paid off the mortgage on his wife’s home und deeded to her some valuable property before the marriage. If such be the case the deeds ave not been placed on record. Mrs. Herbst was formerly the wife of a wealthy contractof, from ‘whom “she was divorced. Wanted Sound Money.

He May Be Put Up in Opposi- tion to Warren B. English. CAMPAIGN FUNDS ARE SHORT. The Foote-English Wing Declare the State Central Committee to Be Bankrupt. 0axLAND OFFIcE SAN FrANcISOO On.x,,} 908 Broadway, Aug. 13. The local Democracy is now more at sea than it was during the bitter struggle between the Foote and Daggett factions at the primaries two months ago. The additional complication is caused by the injection into the arena of a separate sil- ver party. The failure to indorse the Cleveland regime at Chicago has placed the admin- istration Democrats in a most uncomfort- able position, and the local silver wing, headed by Foote, English and Moffitt, are already taking every advantage of it and attempting to complete the discomfiture of Daggett, Irish and Fitzgerald. The next test of strength will be at the Democratie Convention to nominate a Congressmen for the Third District. There is no possibility of the indorsement of the Populist candidate, whoever he may be, and the Daggett and Foote fac- tions will each try to nominate their man. Warren B. English is the man that will be put forward by the Foote-Laymance wing and it is said, though the statement has astring to it, that the Dageett-Fitz- gerald people would like T. F. Garrity to have the nomination. Garrity was the Democratic nominee for District Attorney two years ago and was only narrowly beaten by the Republican candidate. He and English, with their respectiveyback- ings, would about evenly divide the party n Alameda County. The Foote-English element is more hope- ful than before the National Convention. They declare that the State Central Committee is controlled by Daggett, Mc- Coppin, Max Popper and other gold men, yigorous campsaign on & platform to which they are opposed. It is stated that the people who usually contribute to the State and National campeign have with- drawn their support and that the Demo- cratic State Central Committes is bank- rupt and too severely crippled to hope to accomplish much. The silver wing of the Democracy, most of whom live in Alameda County, are doing all in their power to destroy the in- fluence of Daggett and his followers, and are calling the Silver party men to their aid. From the present outlook it would seem that the Silver party men of this county and the Foote wing of the Democ- racy have already allied for offensive and defensive purposes. “The Daggett Democrats are feeling very uneasy,” said a silver leader to-day. “‘The State Central Committee had been expecting that Mr. Lane would contribute at least $20,000 to the campaign fund, but in this they were grievously disappointed. Instead of giving them anything, he set about the organization of a straight Silver State Committee, and the hopes of the Daggett men fell flat. “Daggett has already taken a hand in the Congressional fight in Alameda County, and it was reported to-day that he had telegraphed to Robert Fitzgerald to return from his Eastern tour as soon as gcuinle, and look after the Alameda ounty end of the fibe” The Democrats will not hold a primary for the Congressional Convention, but the same delegates elected for the last State Convention will go to Vallejo September 3 to nominate a Congressman. ENDED A HARD LIFE, James E. Peck Commits Suicide in His Home in North Oakland. OAKLAND, CaArn., Aug. 13.—James R. Peck, a poultry merchant at Twenty-second and that they cannot make much of a| and Market streets, took his life with a re- volver early this morning. He lived with his wife and his son-in- law at 770 Nineteenth street. He arose this morning and went into the basement while his wife was preparing breakfast. She heard the shot, and on going down- stairs she saw her husband sitting in a chair gasping. 1n his lap was a revolver. He had shot himself through the heart and died two minutes later. The deceased was employed by Tubba’ Rope Company for over twenty years. He was discharged about ayear ago, when the factory decreased its staff. A few months ago he went into the poultry busi- ness, but the profits were very small ana Peck was disheartened. A few days ago he remarked to his partner that “life was hard and not worth living.” He was 52 years old and leaves two mar- ried daughters.

BERKELEY, CaL, Aug. 13, — Judge James of the Justice Court has announced that he will not resign from hisoffice as Justice of the Peace of Berkeley. Gustav Rutz, an Inventor of a Streetcar Life-Saving Device Who Has Dropped Out, of Sight. Rutz has been missing for several days and his friends have all sorts of theores as to the cause of his absence. For some time he has been working on a patent car device for saving life, and he recently gave out the information that he had invented something that would pick up a human being with ease while the car was going at a high rate of speed. He carried bis drawings about with him and refused to allow any one to inspect them until he had been granted a patent. He was not worried over money matters, but was always able to pay his way. He was very despondent, and this leads some of his acquaintances to suggest that he has committed suicide. There is a chapter in Rutz’s life that may throw some light on his disappear- ance. He has always been a firm believer in the theory of free love. Hé has advo- cated it in public_and was violently op- posed to anything in the nature of a per- manent marriage. A few years ago he met a lady who held views similar to his own and they put them into practice. At that time Rutz owned considerable cash and had several thousands of dollars in bank. His companion exercised her 1in- fluence over him to such a degree tkat she was very soon the owner of nearly all the coin, After four years’ experience of free love Rutz found it had cost him his small for- tune and when the lady obtained posses- sion of the last $5000 she discovered that the free-love doctrine was mno longer de- sireable and she left Oakland. Since that time Rutz has been a very different man. He could not tind any one else who would accept his free-love doctrine and grew somewhat despondent. He made no preparation for his depart- ure and his room shows that he intended to return. Heis a man of very abstemi- ous habits and his friends scorn the idea that he has gone on a debauch. “During the two weeks previous to his disappearance,” said one of his intimate acgquaintances to-day, ‘‘he was frequently vfim by a man who was not known to any one in the house. I did not like the visitor's appearance and told Rutzso. I believe Rutz expected some money from Germany, but whether it came or not be- fore he went off I cannot say. His friend has not called since he left and I would not be surprised if it should prove to be a case of abduction for the purpose of robbery. We have told the police of the matter, but Detective Williams said that they have no clew on which to work.” GONE UP IN SMOKE. A Two Thousand Dollar Fire on Bay Street and Railroad Avenue, Alameda, OAKLAND, Can, Aug. 13.—At about balf past 8 a fire broke out in the out~ buildings at the back of C. Perfumo's produce and grocery-store, situated on Bay street, near Railrosd avenue. The build- ing is in the middle of the block, and as the fire spread rapidly there was a proba- bility that it would be a serious conflagra- tion. The alarm was turned in and re- peated, bringing out every available man and foot of hose in the city. WORK BEGUN I8 ARNEST Recitations for Uppér Classmen at Berkeley Commenced Yesterday. Congressman Hilborn Receives a Hearty Indorsement for Renomi- nation—Notes. BERKELEY, Carn.,, Aug. 13.—To-day was registration day for sophomores and upper classmen at the State University. By 5 o’clock, the hour sct for the closing of the Recorder’s office, 700 had signed their names and filed their study cardsfor the term. The freshmen, graduates and some of the limited and special students are yet to be heard from. The total number of applicants for fresh- man standing reaches almost the 500 mark, but it is estimated that out of these only about 350 will be admitted. “About 33}4 per cent of the applicants for freshman standiry will probably be clipped off,”” said Recorder SButton to-day, “and so 1 doubt if the class of 1900 will be much larger than the class of "99. “There will be a great many graduate and special students who will come in later, and by another month we will have on our roll at Berkeley about 1250. Some more will come in_January, and by the close of the year the total enrollment in the colleges at Berkeley will reach about 1350, or 100 more than the books of last year show.” Besides the general raising of the stan- dard of entrance requirements this year on account of the overcrowded condition of the university a Latin . **fit"’ has been de- manded for entrance to all the colleges ex- cept those of the applied sciences, such as mining, civil engineering, agriculture and mechanics. The applicant who desires to enter any of the so-called liberal courses, such as are given in the colleges of letters and social sciences was required to have a full three years’ preparatory Latin course. The re- corder says that this single new require- ment has doubtless been the means of keeping many of the “preps” in their high schools for at least another year. Instruction began this afternoon for all the students excepting freshmen. Cards of aamission will be issued to the incom- ing classmen next Monday, and on Tues- day they will be organized for instruction. Almost absolute harmony has existed thus far between the freshmen and their natural enemies, the sophomores; but rumors of a big rush before a fortnight has passed were floating freely to-day. Professor Moses to Return, BERKELEY, Carn., Aug. 13.—Professor Bernard Moses, head of the department of history at the State University, who was some time ago Teported to about to sever his connection with the University of California to accept a similar position at Chicago, will return to Berkeley next Monday.
