DAKLAND CREEK BRIDGE The War Department Grants a Fifteen Months’ Extensiom of Time. The Cost of $80,000 Will Be Borne Equally by Alameda County and the Railroad. The probability is that there will be only bridge across Oakland Creek, between Oakland and Aiameda, instead of | two. Word was received at the Southern | Pacific Railroad offices yesterday that Sec- | retary of War Herbert had granted an ex- tension of time in_which to arrange the proposed consolidation of the Alameda County Supervisors and the | Pacific in regard to the construction of a combination bridge. The original time would bave expired next August, but the extension gives ebout fifteen months from this date in which to construct the bridee. The next thing in order now is a con- ference between the Supervisors of Ala- meda County -and the Soutbern Pacific officials in regard to' the plans of the bridge. No time has been set for this meeting, but it will doubtless be held soon, as all the time granted will dountless be consumed_in building the bridge. The combination brige will be one of the finest in the State. It will be a steel | structure with stone ‘abutments. The | draw will be 150 feet wide. The cost of the new structure will be about $80,000. The location of the bridge has not yet been finally determined. It may replace the present struciure at Webster avenue or be built between that avenue and Alice street. The plans will, in all probability, be No work to spesk of has yet been done upon them, and the details are therefore not deter- mined. It is considered probable that the wagon and pedestrian floor will be above the railroad tracks. —_———— United Brewers Sued for Damagos. Henry A.

GREAT JOY IN CHICAGO. Mr. Plotke’s Anti-Hat-in-the-Theater Or- dinance Becomes a Law Right Away. CHICAGO, ILL, Jan. 15.—The ordinance passed by the City Council two weeks ago against the wearing of head- gear in theaters and amusement houses during ‘the performance, and mak- ing the msnazement liable to a fine of $25 for each offense, was vetoed by Mayor Swift to-night, and a substitute dinance less sweeping in its scope was pacsed and signed by the Mayor. There was some question as to the le- gality of Plotke’s anti-hat ordinance, since it provided no penalty against the wearer, and to-night Mayor Swift suggested a sab- stitute. The penalty is directed against the woman who persists in wearing her hat at a theater, making her liabletoa fine of $3. . The management, by the new ordinance, is exonerated from any responsibility. The ordinance will go into effect to- morrow. i By the terms of the ordinance thé per- sons zuiity of the offense are not to be in- terrupted during the entertainment. At ils completion an cfficer may be called and the guilty one, if she desires, may pay the fine then and there to the police and receive a receipt for it. In this way she can escape arrest. s Wild Flight of an Electric Car. PITTSBURG, Pa., Jan. 15.—This morn- ing an electric car on the Pennsylvania avenue line became uncontrollable on the beavy grade on West Main street. It was impossible to stop its wild flight., When the car strnck the Thirty-fifth street curve it was running at a frightful speed. It left the track, crashing into a large telegraph pole st the curb. The car was split in twain and the passengers hurled in all directions. The car was packed with passengers, and there was the wijdest ex- citement, amounting to a pauic. It was miraculous that there was not loss of life. —————————— Maine’s population increased more than 15,000 during the last year. a suggestion that, all lights that can Southern | HE MAY SING OSIE UGRADY" A Jury Decided This Yes- terday With Very | Little Delay. Little Johnny Robertson’s Sweet ! Sengs Are Not to Be Suppressed. Oae Striking Instance of How Juries Wil Decline to Enforce an' Unpopular Law. 3 { Police Judge Campbell and a jury of men, tried and true, spent all yesierday | | afternoon trying to discover whether w. | H. Leahey of the Tivoli had committed.a grievous crime by payine little 12-year- oid Johnny Robertson §15 a week to sing | “Rosie 0’Grady” in a spectacular extrava- | ganza called *Jack and the Beanstalk.” | The jury ignored the technicalities of { the law and set the Tivoli people free, on the broad ground that the evidence | showed that the agents of the Society for Prevention af Cruelty to €hildren origi- nally investigated the cage and-said there was no violation of the law. There is in this State a law which makes it a crime, per se, as the Jawyers say, to hire any person under 16 years of age to | | sing on a stage. The law was originally | passed by the staid old citizens of the New England States, who. ancieatly | looked upon theaters as allie8 of the evil one. The followmg gentiemen as jurors | ireed the defendantin less than two min- | utes: Richard Resing, Dan Mahony, Horace Wilson, Monroe Harris, E. B. | Clausuns, J. J. Crow,J. D. Long, H. Wall, S. Jonas, M. Collins, N. Wertz. The law plamnly says that any person, whether parent, guardian or employer of any child under the age of 16 years, who | s<ball “exhibit, use or employ said child | in the vocation of singing, playing or | walking u rope,” shall, etc., etc., be con- | sidered a criminal, and as such be subject to punishment. But the jury wonld not { enforce the law, would not have the ver- | dict the way of the code. | There was absolutely no contest about | the facts in the case. The boy swore he was | 12 years of age, that he sang night after night at the Tivoli, that he was hired and id so to do by the managers. " Manager Leahey swore 1o facts com- pletely corroborative of the boy’s story, | adding that Secretary Holbrook, Officer | McMurray ‘and others of the society had | seen the performance and decided that 1t was not objectionable; that 1hey had al- lowed Gertie Cariisle and other children to sing at the Baldwin and elsewhere without moiestation, and had pounced | upon the Tivoli, | "Attorney John T. Dare spoke with due | dignity for the Stute. Attorney Loewen- | thal, for the theater, took the broad yiew that the law was r.diculous, praised the proprietors of the theater for the charities | and the case was won. | Manager Leahey swore that the child was not overworked, and the boy said: “It 1s a pleasurs 1o sing, your Honor.”” It | was shown that the boy is getting a musi- cal education at the Tivoli; that he goes home at 11 . M. nightly with his mother | and gets $15 a week for his services. THE HOPKINS MILLIONS. Next of Kin Suing the Chief Heir for an Accounting Under an Original Agreement. NEW YORK, N. Y., Jan. 15—Three more suits, it was stated yesterday, aré to be brought against Edward F. Searles, { who inherited the Hopkins millions on | the death of his wife, Mrs. Hopkins- Searles, and incidentally a bit of legal gossip was made public concerning the enormous fees paid the lawyers who | bandled the estate. Butler, Stillman & Hubbard of this city were afterward en- gaged to manage the vast estate, and it is now said that jor this service they re- ceived $1,800,000 down and a substantial percentage of future profits. Eugene Hanscheck of the firm of Han- | scheck & Norton of 96 Broadway, is au- | thority for this statement. His clients |are C. N. and G. J. Hebbard and Mrs, Amelia Hebbard Wheeler, cousins of Mrs. Hopkins-Searles. They were among the next of kin who contested the will. The case was tried in Essex County, Mass., 1892, and Mr. Searles agreed to a settle- ment. Timothy Hopkins, the adopted son of Mark Hopkins, and the chief claimant, accepted $6,000,000, and the Hebbards say.they were promised $25,000 each by General Hubbard as their share in the rettlement. Some of the money has been paid them, but the greater portion bas not been forthcoming, they say, and they are now suing for the original’'amonnt in the Supreme Court. The cases have been placed on preferred-cases calendar and will soon be tried. Mr. Bearles is lhving in Massachusetts, He has spent about $8,000,000 of the $18,- 000,000 left him by his wife in Liushing the clamor of the several contestants of the will. The estate.has 'incressed in equal amount, and he is now amusing himself by spending some of the milliongin build- ing a baronial castle after his own designs on an island off the coast of Maine. e e . @eneral Koloff Arrested. NEW YORK, N. Y., Jan. 15.—General Carlos Roloff, the Secretary of War of the Cuban republic, was arrested last night on a warrant sworn. out by the Spanish Consul.

SIS COOKEY WhS ATOOL District Attorney Barnes Thinks the Case Against Him Is a Strong One. No Mere Arrests Will B: Mad: Untii After the Preliminary Hear. ing N:xt We k George Knight and Charles Heggerty both reiterated yesterday that the arrest of ex-Notary James, J. Cooney was but the first move in a series of criminal prose- cutions growing out of the suits brought by Mrs. Nettie R. Craven aganst the heirs to the Fair estate. “I cannot say just when, but all the parties to this conspiracy will be arrested in due time—we don’t propose to allow one of them to escape,” said George Knight. “With regard to James J. Cooney, we feel rather sorry for him than otherwise, We believe he has been the tool of others. We have absolute proof of his guilt and, of course, the guilt of the others. “We may or may not have the com- plaints sworn to, and the prosecutions be- gun before the trial of the ejectment suit comes on, but in any case the prosect- tions will be made.”’ District Attorney Barnes made a state- ment of similar import. He said he had no hesitation in declaring it 8s his opin-. 10n that the pencil deeds were partofa pigantic conspiracy,’and that unless he bad reason to change his opinion all the parties_suspected would be arrested. He said he'dia not believe in moving too fast, however, in such a serious matter. I shail try out tke truth of the theory we are working upon in the preliminary hearing of Cooney next week,’”’ he said. “If my conclusions te correct Cooney wiil be shown to be merely & misguided tool in the hands -of bold cunspirators. We in- tend to exhaust every resource to bring the principals to justice. It will be my duty to prefer additional charges against Cooney, but I soall do so only as a maiter of form, and I shall ask the court to allow him to go under these upon his owp recognizance. The case against Cooney,” continued the District Attorney, “seems to be impregnable, but until it is heard and Cooaeys given a chance to explain all the circumstances that indicate his guilt, I do not desire to cause any more arrests.” —————— Atlantio and Pacific’s Affairs.

THEY DID NOT MAKE: EXPENSES Peculiar Situation as a Re- sult of the Butte-Olympic | \ Foothall Game. Charity Seems to Owe Them Money, Although It Was Supposed to Be a Benefit. The Teams Will Draw More Money Than the First Agreement S:emed to Allow. - ; NEW TO-DAY—DRY GOOD= =3S=3000 000E=E "5% FSPECIAL BARGAINS 4 TO-NIGHT m FROM 7:30 TILL 10 O'CLOCK. : e ———— We say until 10 o’clock, because that is g i i 4 - our closing hour, but taking past sales as an experience we would advise you to come around as close to 7:30 as possible. The quantities are all large, but not large enough for everybody to get some. Take the hint—a word to the wise is generally sufficient. The Butte-Olympic football game on!New Year’s day has developed some complica- | tions that may resuit in charity actuaily | owing money to the two teams that agreed and were permitted to play an exhibition | game for the poor and needy. According to one of the Olympic mana- | gers, who entered his claim last night at the meeting of the board of managers of the Pacific Association of the Amateur Union, the gross gate receipts at tha:! game were only $1100 55, for several hun- | ared of the spectators were admitted on complimentary tickets. i Tne expenses of the Olympic team alone | for that game were $588 35. Now, when the Buuie team shall have put in its bill for expenses, assuming that they would probably be more than those of the home team, the question naturally | arises, Was the game a benefit or an ex- pensive luxury to charity ? i Had the maich been played as originally | arranczed and not as a compromise semi- | professional exhibition, Oiympic was to pave received 35 per cent of the gate re- ceipté. As a charity game, with full| expenses allowed, Olympic would receive | about $:00 more than it would otherwise | have got. 3 But_the president of the Pacific Ama- teur Union positively declares that in the | presence of witnesses he perwitted the | game, with the professionals in it, only as | an exbibition for charity and with no the rent and preparation of the grounds and the printing of advertisements for tue game. Anoher special meeting of the Pacific Association will be held atthe O.ympic Club next Tuesday nignt to hear the testi- mony of all concerned: in the agreement for the charitly game and especially to give President Fitzgerald of the Reiiance Ciub an opportunity to appear on benal: of the Butie team and act as its represen- | tative when the final charge of profes- | sionalism shal be considered. President Allen and Secretary Cook of | the suspended Acme Atnletic Club ap- peared at the meeting last night .and | vlaced the responsibility for the club’s | suspension from amateur standing upon | the shoulders of one of the Acme Club directors, who, it was claimed, personally and without authority arranged and ob- tained amatsur sanction for tfie recent toxing bout between Tighe and Muller, which the association deciared was a pro- fessional match. This matter will, kowever, be given another special hearing at the special | meeting next Tuesday night. The sus- pension of the Acme Club for_thirty days virtually prevents any of its members from competing as representatives of the club during that time. Bome of them, it | is said, will compete in cycle-races with the permission of the representative of | the League of American Wheelmen. In this connection it was stated last night that the Amateur Athletic Union of | { America is at present taking steps that | will shortly resultin an official dissolution of the alliance that has heretofore existed between that orzanization and the League of American Wheelmen. This in effect | means that hereafter the Amateur Ath- letic Union purposes to be its own judge of all branches of amateur sporis, includ- ing cyeling.

WEEKLY BANK STATEMENT. Money Cheaper in New York Than Any- where Else in the Werld. NEW YORK, N. Y, Jan. 15.—The weekly statement of the Associated Banks, to be issued to-morrow, will show a large increase in the cash on hand as the con- sequence of an unusual state of affairs in the money market. About a month ago the presidents and other leading officers of some forty banks belonging to the Clearing-house attended a dinner at the Union League Club, given by Henry W. Cannon, president of tne Chase National Bank. At this gathering an understanding was reached that no call loans, or, in other words, loans payable on demand, should be made at arate less than "2 per cent per annum. For three or four weeks previously most of the call loans had been made at 114 per cent. At this rate the banksdid not consider that they were receiving an adequate return for their money. During the presert week the borrowers found that they could obtain money from the trust companies, insurance companies and other lurge lenders at 1 per cent. Accordin ly they shifted their loans to alargé exteni; thatis, they paid off the | loans to the'banks and got accommo- dated from the lenders, whose rates were 14 ver cent lower. The banks secured only a small part of the new loans. The rapid accumulation of money in their vaults which was e~rning not_ing at all finall [ brought them to a realization that thei agreement to keep the call loan raté up to 2 per cent could no longer be adhered to with advantage, and nmrany of them were accepting offers of 134 percent. Although tne tendency of mouey is downward all over the world, it is cheaper in New* York than anywhere else. et e ok Five Boys' Burned to Death.
