Tw. Young S ciesty Men Were About to Be Arrested in the Early Morn. OAxLAND OFFice Sax Fraxcisco CALL,) 908 Broadway, May 28, ( Baker, two of the best known young men in Oakland society, arrested yesterday morn- an early hour on suspicion of being opera bouffe highwaymen that have : amusing themseives lately taking vistols from officers. The two young gentlemen caused a hackman to have a very severe fright, as the It of which he drove to the police station and told bis experiencs to Chief Lioyd. The Chief at once telephoned to Chief Rogers of Alameda, and a few min- utes later thearrest of the Bakers was avoided through the explanation fur- nished by Alpert Saxton, night receiver at the Aiameda power-nouse. T: e Bakers had been attending a party in Alameda ana had left too late to catch the last car to Oakland. Taey walked as far as the power-house, and not wisbingto | cross the lonely marsh road in the early morning, they offered to pay for a special hem to Oakland. Receiver Saxton declined to furnish them a car, and they started to walk. They had not gone far when they met a back. In the hope ihat it was disengaged, they ran as fast as they could toward it. This occurred in the section of the road on the south side of the marsh known as the “‘cut-off.” One of the Bakers is taller than the other, and when the hackman saw the tall and the short man, that bave figured so much in recent years in midnignt un- leasantnesses, he at once concluded that e was to be the next victim. He whipped np his horses and drove across the marsh ata lively gait, nor did he stop until he arrived at the Oakland city prison. He told his story of how an attempt had been made tohold him up by two high- waymen, and the information was tele- phoned to the Alsmeda police station. Officer Baker was at once dispatched to the marsh road to capiure the desper- adoes, He made ingniry at the power- house, and Receiver Saxton at once told him who the highwaymen were and why thev shou!d be chasing a back in theearly morning. The explanation was found to b true, and when the Bakersarrived on the Oakiand side of the marsh they were not arrested. Cannot Pay His Ex-Wife’s Debts. OAKLAND, CaL., May 28.—Dr, John R.

Arcbbishop Riordan Wil Caieb-ate Pentifizial Mass in the Open Air, OARLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCIECO CALL,) 908 Broadway, May 25. The programme of events for the cen- tennial celebration of Mission San Jose is almost completed. Rev. Thomas Mec- Naboe, who is in charge of the present parish, is now making the final arrange- ments for a fitting observance of the his- toric event. One of the features of the day will be a procession, in which many organizations 1894 was deferred, but everything that has been done is straightforward and above- board. He claims his sister gave him the property by deed of gift, subject only to f_l}a payment of $3010 annually during her ife. The answer contains copies of letters from Mrs. Harris to Ames which were given after the action to recover the prop- erty had been commenced, in which she says she ia eatisfied her brother has been done a wrong and also giving instructions to her attorneys to dismiss the suit. On the 1st of February, 1897, the attorneys for Mrs, Harris acted according to her instructions and, it is claimed, the suit was dismissed, and so Ames declares this action was tinal. Some depositions, how- ever, have been recently taken and the matter is still pending. —————————— ANOTHER FIRE SCANDAL. Assistant Chief and a Hoseman change Biows. OAKLAND, CaL, May 28.—Assistant Chief Murdock of the Fire Department and Jack Roban of one of the hose compsnies had a fight this afternoon near the City Hall. Some days ago it was reported to Mur- dock that Rohan was seeking to bave the assistant chief deposed because of an af- fidavit said to have been made by Harry Lawson, now in S8an Quentin, The affida- vitstated that Murdock had made proposi- tions to Lawson to burn down certain buildings for various purposes. This aft- ernoon Murdock and Rohan met. Mur- dock asked Rohan for the affidavit and petition and the latter replied that he had it not. Murdockcalled Rohan a liar and at the same time emphasized his words with his fist. There was a short round and the men both made their way to the police station, Rohan declaring he will have Murdock arrested for assault. On account of the unsetilei condition REV. THOMAS McNAEBOE, Pastor of Mission San Jose. join, All the Catholic orders will be | represented and several secuisr institu- | tions. It is probable that ail the lodges | in Waeshington and Murray townships will take part. An attempt is being made to hold a big barbecue as one of the festive events. It being impossible to think of Mi: San Jose without its Spanish history ot s century ago, it is thought most fitting thet a Spanish fiesta shall form part of the ceremony. The religicus ceremony will be presided over by the Archbishop and a great many clergy who will be present. There wiil te a pontifical mass, which will be celebrated in the open air, probably in front of the osly portion of the original mission which still stands, The mission of San Jose is the only building 1n the little town that remains of | bistoric value. Unlike many other mis- sions_there are no other buildings sur- rounding it of any interest. These aLxil- iary institutions were never very imposing, | and such as they were they perished al- most entirely in the severe earthquake of 1868, which shook down the church and left buta small portion of the entire quad- rilateral, a low adobe structure which was the wine cellar of the early padres. | At the present time a huge grapevine | covers the front of this interesting sur- | vivor. In the rear are a few of the old trees whicn stood in the mission garden, xome of them olives, which are said to be over eighty years od. “We expect to have a very large at- tendance at_our centennial czlebration,” said Father McNaboe to-dsy. *“The Mis- sion San Jose is the cradle of civilization in Alameda County. Its founders were the first Cbristians to bring civilization to the Indians and from that date began the development in this district. Atone time the mission was the center of a most flour- ishing Indian settlement. After a while the Spaniards succeeded the Indians and another perlod of progress was enjoyed. | Since the secularizajion of the mission, however, the work of the mission has been steadily carried on, though under differ- ent conditions. DEFEATED THEM ALL, In the Intercolleginte Rifle-Shoot Berkeley Has Been Victor Thus Far, BERKELEY, CaL, May 25.—There seems to be little doubt that the Univer- sity of California r.fle team will defeat at least a majority of the teams represent- ing the eighteen Eastern universities in the annual intercoliogiate ride-shoot. Reports came to-day from the Tennessee | and Michigan team-, the former scoring 328 and the latter 348, as against Berke- ley’s 400. Reports have hitherto been re ceived from Lllinois. lowa and Virginia State universities. all ot which fell below the score of the U. C. Out of the eighteen colleges in the league, Berkeley has defeated the five so far heard from. Advices from the others are expected daily. A New Pastor. BEKKELEY, Can, May 28.—The West ! Berkeley Presbyterian Church is to have | a new pastor. Rev.James Hunter, who has filled the pastorate for the three years just ended, will be sacceeded by Rev. k. H. Robinson of Centerville.

The answer sats forth that owing to press of busiuess the aunual settlement of of the Fire Department, conSequent on the failure of Colef Fair to be re-elected, scandals such as this are coming to the surface every few days, and an official said to-day that there is no likelihood of discipline being restored until the matter of appointing a new chief is settled. BURGLAR CAUGHT. Intuition of an Officer Gave the Thief Into the Hauds of the Law. ALAMEDA, Cav., May 28.— A man giv- ing the pame of Wheeler was arrested on Twenty-third avenue near the tidal canal bridge late yesterday afternoon and on his verson were found some stolen goods, which he owned up to have taken from the residence of Mrs, Dora Colby, 1118 La- fayelte street. Mrs. Colby had taken oc- casion to leave her residence yesterday, and on going away cautioned her son 1o fasten all the doors, as she had seen a sns- vicious character loitering around. This the boy neglected to do, and asa resulta thief, who turned out to be Weeeler, en- tered the cellar and ransacked a trunk | that was stored there, stealing some jew- elry and other articles. He made them up in a bundle and left town by way of the tidal canal bridge. While passing along Twenty-third ave- nue he met Constable Quinlan. The officer intuitively thought tnat the fellow was a thief and started to overhaul him. Wheeler took to his heels, but was soon caught and his bandle found to contain stolen goods. He acknowledged that he had robbed Mrs, Colby’s nouse. Mrs. Clark’s Funeral. ALAMEDA, Car., May 28.—~The funeral of thelate Mrs. M. E. Clark took place this afternoon ana was largely attended.

OAKLAND, Car, May 28. — Deputy Constable Cronin, who was shot last night by James Bryan, is still in a critical con- dition at the hospital.

John Rodgers, another clerk in the same store, jumped in be- tween the two men and said: **For God’s sake, Frank, shoot me, if you are going to shoot anybody.” The intervention of Rodgers drew Her- rick’s attention from Higes, and the mutual friend took his pistol from him. The men returned to their desks in the stores and no arrests were made. Another Woman Robbed. OAKLAND, CAL,, May %8.—Mrs, M. J. Bradley bhad her band-satchel snatched from her last night. She was walking along Seventh street, between Brush and Castro, when two 1en approached her. As they were passing one of the men snatched the saichel and they both ran off.

The Crooks Reaped a Harvest at the Recent Butchers’ Picnic Secret Service Agent Harris Is Wor- ried Over the Maiter and Is Watching. A dangerous gang of counterfeiters, sup- posed to be the same one that operated extensively at the racetrack: some time ago, has been carrying on its nefarious business on a large scale vithin the past few days, and Secret Service Agent Nick Harris is very much worried over its dep- redations. It was supposed that when the racing seagon closed the ‘‘shovers of the queer’” would depart, but they have found just as promising a field in the picnics, where change is made rapidly over the bars, and it is at the resorts of the Sunday revelers that the counterfeiters are now working. The counterfeiters chose the butchers’ pienic at Shell Mound on Wednesday to ply their trade, and the number of coun- terfeit $5 pieces that have come to light since that event has almost driven Agent Harris 10 distraction. Captain Siebe, the manager of the park, came to the City yesterday and cailed on Harris with eight golden half eagles that had been passed on his barkeepers, and it is known that a large number were taken in by those conducting other privileges as well as at the gate. The coins are remarkably perfect in looks, none but an expert being able to detect any defects in the workmanship or weight. The ring is poor, however, and a few rasps of a file or an application of strong fingers soon shows that they are nothing but lead. The gold plating is very heavy, how- ever, giving them the right feel as the lead gives them weight. Those who passed them on the bars ana lunch counters were evidently experts in the business, for in no case were they even suspected, and in most inswances the fraud was not discoverea until the coins were presentsd to banks for deposit or to merchants whose cushiers were experts in detecting fraudulent coin. One bank even took a number of the counterfeits, and one of the coins found its way into the pocket of a member of the banking firm. When thatindividual tried to pass 1t onaweil-known refreshment caterer it was handed back with the re- mark that it was bo:us. The banker in- sisted that it must be good, because it had been taken in over his counter, and a number of business men who examined the coindeclared they wished they had a “parrel likeit.” The mixologist is possessed of strong fingers, however, and after he had bent the bit of gold-covered lead out of shape all were convinced that a most dangerous counterfeit had been unearthed. Harris bas determined to run the gang to earth or drive it out of town at the Irast and will keep an_eye out at future picnics. Itisreported that the counter- feiters will try to work their wares off at the Caledonia picnic to-day and to prevent this and arrest the men if possibe, Mr. Harris will attend the picnic with a squad of exp-rienced assistants and keep asharp lookout all day. The agent is under the impression that the crooks are Eastern men who are un- known to the local authorities and are therefore able to ply their shady trade with much greater ease than would other- wise be the c S J3SE CICLE WEET Entries, Heats and Handicaps for the Racss There To-Morrcw.

A Novel Orgzanizatioa Which Has No President and No 0 ficers. “Individual Sovereigns’ is the digni- fied title by which the members of the Social Science Club refer to one another. No interest, no taxes, no rent and inci- dentally no government is the platiorm on which th.e workings of this little band 1s conducted. The Social Science Club was organized some three months ago, the members holding their meetings weekly at Uni versal Hall, at the corner of Stockton and Pacific streets. Wednesday evening the headquarters of the ciub was removed to Cambrien Hall, where the meetings will be held in the future. The platform of the club recognizes no government and naturally has neither | president nor officers, The speaker was chosen by general acclamation and all are invited to join in the discussion. S. Danieiewicz called the meeting to order Wednesday evening, explaining briefly and concisely the objects of the club and the resuits they expect to accom- piish. F.rst and foremost is the obolition of in- terest. wherein, according to the speaker, lies the root of all eviis. Then thereis the question of land possession, which, the speaker stated, i1s as erroneous as would be the elaiming of the sun’s light in the deep waters of the sea. “We must bave individual sovereignty,” said Danielewicz. *If we bad individual law instead of Nationa! law land would be the use of him who needs it. “If we had no Government to protect money interests, the peoble would estabe lish a medium of exchange of, their own, wh ch would be non-interest bearing.” In conclusion, the genileman declared that t e Government is fostering and pro- tecting the monopolies, which are the root of all existing evils.
