There has been so much sec- tionalism in recent parades that there is now a general desire to harmonize all in- | terests in a general patriotic celebraton to which all will be welcome. John A. Britton, general manager of the gas company, is very enthusiastic and has already fulfilled his pledge to raise the necessary funds. “In two days,” he said, “I succeeded in having $1500 subscribed toward the Fourth of July fund, and I have only made a start.

The Prculiar B.dding for the Town Printing the Talk cf the Town. | BERKELEY, CaL., June 17.—The war | now being waged for Berkeley’s town | printing gives promise of developing into | a scandal. Some facts have come to light | which foreshadow any thing but a cloud | less sky for the contestanis in the race for | the work named. A special commi:tee of the Board of Trustees, consisting of Presi- dent Richards and Messrs. Hoff and { Marston, will meet to-morrow evening to probe the journalistic tumor and to try and arrive at a decision as to which paper | will be awarded the wvatronase. Mean- while the peculial circumstances a:tend- | ing the bidding for the work is the topic of discussion on every band, and the se sational coup of Fred W. Marquand is | talked of pro and con on every street corner. | Some of the Trustees are known to strongly favor the new light in college town journalism, and there is a wide- spread satisfaction at the appearance of a factor which saved the iown from an al- leged combine. The printing of pubiic advertisements is now done by the Ga- zette for 7 cents. Last year there was keen competilion to secure the contract at that rate. This year the lowest bid was $1—over fourteen times the present rate. | The next bid was that of the Herald, which made an offer to do the work for $105. Then came the Advertiser, which proposed about 8 cents last year, with a bid of $1 08 The remarkable unity in advance of rates is taken as evidence that a combina- tion was formed by the three establiched dailies. The World came like a bombshell into their camp, and now the trusiees’ committee is wrestling with the question of whether it had a rizht to do so. The issue has raised the biiterest con- troversy Berkeley has seen for many years. Personalities are already being in- | dulged in and there 13 taik of proceed- |ings of a sensational nature. On the one side are 8. H. and Louis Bork- heim of the Gazette, E. Rawlins and | Mrs. Adelaide Marquand of the Advocate | and C. F. Guenther of the Herald, and on the other side are F.W. Mirquand aud | his unknown backers. The committee of the Town Trustees will take evidence from both sides and then dec.de whether the World was enti. tled to enter a bid for the printing.

She came because she was reduced to the verge of starvation in Eng- land and became depsndent on her son. Mrs. Buller is now very sick at the Ho- tel Metropole and cannot see any one, but Lieutenant Blair, her son by her first hus- band, consented to speak to-day and told the various reasons that induced his mother to come to Oakland. **My mother will probably never return to gland,” he said, *‘but will quietly settle down here. Her health is com- pletely shattered, and it is doabtful if she lives two vears longer. Whether we shal! op-n the Kirkland estate litigation or not depenas on Mrs, Wheeler, my mother's sisier. At the time of the last settlement between the sisters Mrs. Wheeler agreed to pay her two sisters certain sums of money monthly. Mrs. Safford received just one instaliment and my mother two, and thep they ceased. “My mother and younger brother would have starved there in England if I had pot some money of my own. My father left me about §50,000and that is all we had 10 support us. We are now here to see that the terms of the former agreement are Kept or a new one entered into; if not, then a suit will be brougut. *Old Mrs. Kirkkam is not responsible for her actions and is entirely under the Mrs. Wheeler. My grand- mother asked my mother to come to Cali- fornia and Mrs. Buller will not leave until she has seen her mother. Mrs. Wheeler hurried Mrs. Kirkham off to the country as soon as we arrived at New York, and the day after we came to Oakland Mrs. Wheeler also left town. But we are not to be put off. Wecan wait for their re- turn. Mrs. Kirkham is now 87 years old | end the physicians say that she cannot live but a few weeks longer."” As soon as Mrs, Yarde-Baller is strong enough she will sue for a divorce. When she is awarded the decree the English courts will confirm it and this will force her husband to settle $40,000 uoon her.

The Christian Endeavor choir of 1000 voices which will sing at the convention bLas accepted an invitation to be present and render a few National airs. The following resolution was then of- fered by Coionel W. P. Sullivan: WHEREAS, The Fourth of July Committee elieves that a creditable celebration of the nal anniversary can be had v nditure of large sums of mon e parade y and with- ing on_our already rburdened tizens for furiner ¢ ns of ys for public affairs; now, be it ved, That the sum of appro- prisied by Bourd of Supervisors of this Uity and Cc for the celebration of the Fourth of July anniversary is an adequate provision for the requirements of this com- mittee; and that, accordingly, no_ subserip- tions or contributions for the celebration of the Fourth of July be asked of tue citizens of the City; and Lesolved, Thai il money already subscribed citizens be refunded on proper appli- Mr. olution, that in previous celebrations Sullivan stated, in favor of the expenditures were made for fire- works, which were generally unsatisiac- tor. “Four or five thousand people,” said Mr. Sullivan, “would stand shivering in the park trying todistinguish through the fog what the fireworks reaily were.’” After some discussion the resolution was unani- | mously sdopted. Mr. Reebe then introduced a resolution to the effect that no committee, sub-com- mittee or member thereof should enter into any contract on behalf of the com- mittee unless the same had been dul! submitted to and passed upon by the ex- ecutive committee and bore the signatures o1 the president and secretary, which was adopted unanimously. A resolution was also passed providing that the assistant secretary receive $100 and t: e sergeant-at-arms $50 as remunera- tion for their services, Mr. Samuels, the secretary, offered his services gratuitously. The committee hopes to be able to irnish a better celebration this year than any previous one and at far less expense, Those who have already contributed will have their contributions refunaed by applying at the headquarters of the com- mittee. e BUILDERS' EXCHANGE.
