’ THE SAN FRANCISCO CALI;, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1896. 11 EACH MEMBER HAS HIS BILL Assemblyman North Will Attempt to Pass a Primary Law. The Anti-Primary Men Have Not Brought Harmony to the Party. Davie May Be the Opposition Candi- | date for Mayor—Dow for Attorney. OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FraNCIsco CAvr, 908 Broadway, Dec. 29. } Each member of the Alameda delegation to the Legisiature is working hard upon some pet scheme which he thinks will inure to the benefit of his district. As- semblyman Leavitt will probably take up some measure that will take the place o his water-front bill, which he has with- drawn, and Assemblyman Hart North has prepared a new primary election law bill, which will, he claims, be acceptable to all parties and be held to be constitutional by the Supreme Court. Mr. handle the West Oakland marsh. Mr., North has published a copy of his bill, so that 1t might be discussed during the next few days and any improvements suggested by those whose experience may be greater than his own. His bill is very lengthy, but 1n brief it provides that the primaries of all parties shall be held on the same day, but that each side shall print its own ticket. It provides for a proclamation to be issued thirty days be- fore the time to hold the primary election, by the governing body of each county or | city. Any and all persons interested may provide printed tickets for use as ballots at primary elections, but they shall all be printed upon uniform wkhite paper, which shall be furnished at cost by the Board of Supervisors. The polls must be opened at 7. x. and closed at sundown, and all the details conrected with the counts shall be in all respects as provided in the general elec- tion law, with the same right of challenge and the same penalties for violation of the provisions of the general election law. The Boards of Sapervisors must elect the primary election officers, ana not more than one judee and cierk must be from any one-political party, and they must ail serve without compensation, and any one who shall refuse to serve without sufficient cause shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. The concluding sections of the bill makes the eost of conducting primary elections a coanty charge, and fixes the vpenaity for violation of the primary election law at $500 or imprisonment in the County Jail for six months. STUDENTS TESTDIHAMDS They Spend a Day With the Alameda Electric-Light P.ant. A Japanese Nearly Lost His Throuzh Some Heaviy Charged Water. Life ALAMEDA, Can, Dec. 29.—Professor C. L. Cory of the electrical and mecbani- cal engineering department of the Uni- versity of California and a class of twenty Breiling will | tempted to feel the temperature of the water which was absorbing the energy of the entire plant, and was only saved from death by the quick efforts of fellow- students. He did not understand the strength of the water. The inquisitive student was not badly hurt, only very mach shaken up, but had he received the full force of the current he would surely have been killed. He went home with his classmates. The Watson Divorce. ALAMEDA, CaAL., Dec. 29.—Mrs. Elmira F. Watson, who formerly resided at 1011 Morton street with her husband, testified | in court to-day before Judge Ogden that her husband had drawn a pistol ox her on the street when one of his own friends raised his hat to her as he spoke to her husband. She said he had become jeal- ous of the Rev. W. W. Scudder of the First Congregational Church when he cailed upon her as a member of his flock. At another time, when coming out of the church, as was his custom, Deacon Agery shook hands with her. This so enraged | the jealous man that he jumped between her and the good deacon. Mrs. Watson was the first witness in the divorce case now pending wherein she cnarges her husband with extreme cruelty and jealousy. Mr. Watson filed a cross- | complaint charging ber with infidetity. | Every step has been a bitter fight with property rights and custody of children interwoven., One of the witnesses, a little boy, died recently. A Baby Badly Burned. ALAMEDA, CaL., Dec. 20.—Little Clara Dolores Brown,the three-vear-old daughter of Horace P. Brown of 2126 Clement ave- nue, was nearly burned to deatl yester- day afternoon while playing with her doll in the parlor. B8hesat on the floor near the grate, and in some way her dress ignited and before she was found was nearly suffocated. Her mother saw the baby’s plight ana she grabbed a rugand rolled the child in it. The little one’s hands and face were terribly burned and itg little body charred in places. She in- | stinctively held her breath and put her hands over her eyes, thus saving her sight | and her lungs, but her lips were blistered. | Dr. Keyes did all he could to alleviate the sufferer and pronounces her resting as easily as could b= expected to-night. DOCKAGE AND TOLLS. | Xnteresting Figures Regarding the | City’s Busin at the Wharves. OAKLAND, Cav., Dec. 29.—The city of | Oakland, with its thirteen miles of water | front, holds only two wharves—at Frank- | lin and Webster streets and the interven- ing block—without dispute, and it is here that all the commerce of the city is done. | But from a short review of the figures it | can be seen what may be expected when thbe city secures undisputed control of the | balance and invites the commerce of the | worla to the city. ‘During the ten months from March 1, | 1895, to January 1, 1896, the city received from this small section of wharfage the | sum of $3318 45 in dockage fees, $2949 25 in tolls and $21 25 for wharfage, a total of | $6288 95. The present year has been a | poor one in all lines of business. The to- | tal receipts to date, with estimates for the next two days, show $3596 82 collected for dockage, $3631 86 for tolls and $10 for | wharfage, a total of $7238 68. Jarvis Withdraws. OAKLAND, CaL., Dec. 29.—This after- noon F. C. Jarvis, the recent candidate of the Republicans for Supervisor from the | First District, who has been contesting | the election of Thomas D. Wells, the fusion candidate, notified the court he was satistied from the reconnt as far as it bad proceeded, that he had no cause to camplain and would like to withdraw his contest, The gourt allowed the request and made an order fixing Wells’ majority | at 24. It was 33 under the official canvass of the votes by the Supervisors. Blauket Mortgage. OAKLAND, CaL, Dec. 29.—The San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Rail- way Company filed a blanket mortgage on all of its property in this county to-day in favor of the Mercantile Trust Company of New York to secure an issne of $6,000,000 worth of bonds. The filing of the deed here is considered significant, as showing that the company expects to do business in Alameda County in the future. Portuguese Union, OAKLAND, CAL., Dec. 29.—The Portu- | guese Union of California has organized a | new council in this city with the following | officers: F. J. Lemos, superyiscr, presided, {and L.

Little Boys Who Went to Fish at Dusk Were Injured by the Barbs. Cannot Bs Arrested for Trespassingz, So Are Prevented by Other Means. OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL.} 908 Broadway, ‘Dec 29. For over a quarter of a century crowds of fishermen and fisherboys have gone to ‘West Oagland pier daily to try and take a meal out of the bay. If they wish to do so in future at the narrow-gauge pier they will have to provide themselves with barbed-wire-proof suits. During the past few days the openings between the piles have been liberally pro- placed on the track to be run over by | which showed a congested condition of passing trains. Probably not less than a dozen trains ran over the track before the body was recovered. It is impossible for any identification to be made, as the body was so badly ground to pieces. The part of the city where it was discovered is frequented by the hard characters known as the “West Oakland gang,” to whose credit scores of brutal outrages have been placed during the past two years. It is gunite likely that if the man was murdered he was first robbed by the toughs who live in that locality. The remains of the man found on the track were identified to-night as those of James Conlin of 654 Linden street. His sister identified him by portions of h"B clothing. He left home last night at 9: and did not return. He was a member of the Sporting Life gang, and no one can occount for the bullet holes in the faca or for his presence on the track. NEW YEAR'S RECEPTION. Christicn Assoc! on Will Receive Young Men of the City. OAKLAND, OaL., Dec. 29.—The doors of the Young Men’s Christian Association will be open ail day Friday to the mem- bers, subscribers and the young men of the city and their friends, and a very cordial invitation is extended to all such to be present. The annual address will be given at 12 o'clock by the Kev. George C. Adams, D.D., of S8an Francisco. The ladies of the Women’s Auxiliary will re- ceive from 2 to 5 P. M., and there will be a gymnastic exhibition at 3;15 and a bas] ball game at 4 o’clock. In the evening there will be a concertin the auditorium under the direction of Miss Pearl Noble, in which the following talent will participate: Pacific trio, Miss Pearl Noble (soprano), Miss Mildred Amidon_Clark (mezzo-soprano), Miss Maude Noble (contralto); George Mc- How the Southern Pacific Prevents Boys From Taking a Meal Out of the Bay. ————— tected with fierce-looking barbed-wire. The crowds of fishermen would undoubt- edly have been arrested for trespassing many years ago, had the railroad company not been aware of the fact that by bring- ing up a question of trespass it wouid be necessary for them to prove title to the property, and whenever title has been mentioned 1n connection with water-front property everything pertaining thereto has invariabiy been dropped. Tie reason given by the railroad em- ployes for fhe formidable fence is to pre- vent danger from small boys who might be tempted to jump on and off the boats, but such danger does not appear to be any greater now than twenty years ago, when other small boys caught fish at the wharf and were not protected by a barbed fence. Two boys who live in West Oakland went down to the pier last night to fish as usual and not being aware of the fence they attempted to pass between the piles apd situpon the stringers to fish. They now wish they had not, for their faces and knees are suggestive of something that has been in contact with a buzz-saw. The theory that the wire fence was put up to protect boys from falling into the water is not borne out by the length of the fence, which does not extend more than a quarter of the way down the pier from the depot. It only goes as far as where the stern of the boat is abreast of the pier when it is moored. The best part of the pier for fishing is right under the barbed fence and all kinds cf compaints, are being made by the many sufferers. In West Oskland there are several people who depend for their only square meal each day on what they catch from the piers and they are nighly indignant at being thus shut out. A doubt has been ex- grened as to whether or not snybody eing injured by the barbed fence has not a reasonable ground to ask for damages. KILLED AND MANGLED, Shots Found in the Remains o! a Man in the Railroad Yard. It Is Believed H: Was Murdered, Robbed and Then Put on the Track. OARLAND OFFICE BAN FBANOISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, Dec. 29, } This morning the badly mangled re- mains of a man were found on the track near Peralta street, and an investigation of them makes it appear thata murder has been committed. The body was so terribly cut that it was impossible to recognize any of the fea- tures, nor was there a whole limb intaet. It was discovered by Watchman Frank Brown of the railroad company and taken to the morgue. This afternoon Brown found a portion of the face, which had been covered with dirt and over- looked by the Ooroner's deputies when gathering up the fragments this morning. A critical investigation .of the face showed that just above the nose a buck- shot had entered, and near this was ancther small shot hole.

OAKLAND, Cavr.,, Dec. 29.—Municipal politics are somewhat more mixed than they wers & week ago, and the primary and anti-primary men are further from harmony. It cannot be doubted that the Repub- ticans who are represented by the com- mittee of twenty-one are having a hard task to_agree on a candidate for Mayor. W. V. Witcher has a rtron% friend in ex- Mayor W. R. Davis. John Britton, Coun- cilman Towle and Mr. Davis. are also mentioned, but Mr. Davis is more often spoken of as the next member of Congress from this district. It is not improbable that the opposition will take the form that it did two years ago and center itself entirely upon one man, and at present it looks as though that man would be John L. Davie. The city.government is viewed differently to- day from what it was two years ago, and many who were deities then are fallen idols now. The peculiar action of the Municipal League, which fought so val- iantly on behalf of primaries a few months ago, and which now intends to nominate men as delegates independent of any pri- mary, has undoubtedly disrupted that organization and has robbed it of much of tbe confidence of the public that it for- merly enjoyed. W. A. Dow, at present a Councilman, is being lrdnnciy pushed for the office of City Attorney, and ex-officio Police and Fire Commissioner., It is openly stated that George C. Pardee is his warmest friend, and if this pe the case Mr. Dow’s prospects of success can be estimated as being very bright, for, with the exception of Nelson, whatever Pardee has wanted in mnnioipui politica during the past four years he has almost invariably obtained. The Populista intend to put & straight ticket in the field, and at present nothing definite is heard from the Democrats. 1t is not unlikely that #he Populists may make some nomin: s by way of policy that the Democrats and Republicans who want & primn:(y will indorse, and thus make the municipal campaign as vigorous and bitter as it was two years ago. The Coming Convention. OAKLAND, CaL, Dec. 29.—The com- mittee of twenty-one of the Republican City Central Committee met to-night and agreed upon the manner of naming the delegates. . Daly, C. H. Merithen, Paul Goldsmith, W. A. Rouse, R. D. Hun- ter and George étlnley were appointed to fill the vacancies on the committes. The time for holding the convention was changed from the first to the third Mon- day in January. Voting by Groups. ' OAKLAND, Car., Dec. 29.—Assembly- man Hart H. North has a bill drawn to change the election law so as to permit Presidential electors to be voted for by the brain, as if from a blow. The men were engaged in a fistic en- counter Christmas day, and Gassique was bedly worsted and was knocked to the pavement. Whether the blow or fall caused the concussion of the brain will be left for a jury to decide. Copper Cents Costly. OAKLAND, CAL., Dec. 29.—The South- ern Pacific Company has appealed from the decision of Justice Fred C. Cliff, awarding G. A. Blank $200 damages ana $14 costs, because the company’s agent at ?rofmwny refused to accept 5 copper cents or fare. BARELY ESCAPED DEATH. Ex-Town Trustee Hadlan and Family Caught in a Blaze—A Heavy Loss. BERKELEY, CaL, Dec. 29.—Ex-Town Trustee Hadlan and family had a narrow escape from being burned to death early this morning. His grocery at the corner of University avenue and Ninth sireet caught fire at about 5:30 o’clock while his family was asleep. Hadlan, who had just arisen and was in the stable, saw the blaze issuing from the grocery over which he and his tamily lived. Rushing into the building and up the stairs he barely had time to rescue the sleepers before the whole house was en- veloped in flames and smoke. Nothing was saved but the clothes the people wore, the building having been gutted. During the fire a heavy explosion oc- curred, caused by the coaloil cans in the rear of the store. The grocer sustained a loss of about $3000, while the owner of the building was a loser to the extent of $1000 or thereabouts. Each was secured by partinsurance on their properties. Passing of Arc Lamps. BERKELEY, CaL., Dec. 29.—An exper- iment of substituting incandescent lights for arc lamps in street lighting is about to bé undertaken by the Board of Town trustees with a view to abolishing arclamps altogether, Trustee Martin of the Elec- tric-light Committee last night presented a plan for lighting -the upper vpart of Dwight way as a test of the incandescent system. It is proposed to s utoff all the arc lamps on Dwight way east of Tele- graph avenue and place eleven incandes- cent lights on either side of the streat. If the latter are found -to afford sufficient illumination the abolition of*arc lamps will be urged by the Light Committee. Better Police Protection. BERKELEY, Can., Dec. 29.—A peti- tion was last night presented to the Town Board by the Good Government Club, requesting that a plan for a unitorm system of Epolice protection be adopted. The plan of the club is for the appoint- ment of deputy officers in all sections of the town whence petitions for them are preseated, who are to be paid by the petitioners, but are to be under the con- trol of the Town Marshal. The question was referred to the Town Attorney for am opinion. ’ THOSE LIQUOR ADS, The Objectors Must Pay Their Value or They Go in the Blue and Gold. BERKELEY, CaL., Dec. 29.—Manager Mott of '98's Blue and Gold will probably have trouble on his hands when the new term of college opens, He has not heeded the resolutions passed by the college Y. M. U. A,,demanding that the liguor ad- vertisements be omitted in the Annusl, but has let the contract for “‘ads’ to a San Francisco concern regardless of the quasi mi‘unclion passed upon him. n speaking of the matter to-day, he said, “Yes, I was implored by the Y. M. C. A. not to_accept any liquor ‘ads,” but 1 simply told them that if they would guarantee me the amount. the ‘ads’ would come to I would glad.y lesve them out. *To this they said nothing. The class has taken no action in the matter, and as these particular advertisements are of such fnancial consequence, and as we need every cent we can get hold of, I guess they will have to goin. We may have a fight on our hands at the opening of the term. I am perfectly willing to acquiesce in the wishes of the Y. M. C. A. if ‘hey will see that the book is paid for.” UNHEALTHY SCHOOLS,. The New Grand Jury Will Make Careful Inquiry Into Their Con- dition the First Thing. The Grand Jury met yesterday for the first time since its organization and en- tered actively upon ite work, The first business to be taken up isan investiga- tion of the sanitary condition of the pub- lic schools. A committee, consisting of. Louis 8. Kast, James W. Cudworth and R. B. Kittredge .was appointed to inquire particuiarly into the condition of all the schools and to report upon the same. At the same time Foreman Peixotto ad- vised,every member of the jury to visit and examine the schools that are nearest their own residences and to report upon them. The jury has no intention of interfer- ing in the dispute between the Board of Health and the Board of Education, but will take what measures it can toward get- ting the schools into a proper sanitary condition according as its investigations may discover the need. The standing committees will probably ;:e appointed at the next meeting of the ury. — ey Socialist Labor Party. The State Executive Committee of the So- cialist Labor party met last eveningin the Turk-street Temple, Herman Sahlender acting as chairman. Reports of encouragement of the growth of sccialist sentiment were re- ceived from various correspondents showing that three new branches have been instituted during the past month, viz.: a section at San Diego, Santa Barbara and Sacramento coun- ties. Liberty branch will be addressed at its megting to-night in the temple by Henry Warnecke Jr. on the subject, ‘What Is Jus- tice?” W.P.
