THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1898. “3he Call's’ Warning Was Heeded. Ordinance Passed to Print Without Change. Retort Courteous That Passed Between Gir- ard and Heit- mann. R R R *“There was a time when honest men were elected to office in Oak. land — when men whe worked, like myself, and who had visible means of support, were mems- bers of the Councilg when honest men and unot hoodlums were elect- ed.””—Reply of Coun man Girard to Councii. man Heitmann in the meeting of Oakland’s City Fathers last night. R R R S S S AP D R R R S S S S SR SR SR PGP R R R R R When The Call sounded the note of warning to the people of Oakland two n weeks ago there was eve indicat that there would be a concerted effo on the part of the two water companie f that city to have the Council mak an increase of rates.

When the Council met last night it was evident that the water companies were prepared to advantage of every opening in order that they might an increase, but the men who were for the best interests of the re on the lookout and balked eme that appeared. At t the discussion became acri- monious and bitter, and even went to the extent of an indulgence in person- allties, but all the while the five mem- who have shown their determina- tion to stand between the people and tion made wi standing people we any increase of water ta such a firm stand that even those members who were trying to make changes _were forced_to vote for_the people, and the ordinance was passed by a unanimous vote. Councilman Heitmann openedthe war with an attack upon Mr. Girard by saying that there was a time when fools were appointed to officé, but now they were elected. Girard was on his feet in an instant, and for a while it looked as’if there might be need of po- lice interference, but Heitmann was satisfied to keep silent after the scoring inflicted upon him by the indignant champion of the people. Girard brought forth the applause of the assembled itizens when he said: , and there was a time when honest men were elected to office in Oakland; when men who worked, like myself, and who had visible means of support were members of the Council; when honest men, and not hoodlums, were elected.” Councilman Cuvellier watched the op- position very closely, and checked ev- ery attempt to make changes in the re- port of the committee with the result that the report was adopted as made, and now the chances of the water com- panies getting any “joker” incorporat- ed in the ordinance are very slim in- deed. That something of this sort will be attempted was evidenced by a very significant remark made by Council- had won it for the people, and this morning it will make its customary blare of trumpets claiming the glory, but, unfortunately for the Missionstreet Monarch of Fakers, the people of Oak- land know that The Call had fought and won their battle before the yellow journal made its first move in their be- half. The following telegrams were re- ceived by President Pringle last night: Hon. William D. Pringle, President Oakland City Coun. cil: Congratulate you on your brave stand for honesty and right. CHARLES A, CLINTON, Supervisor, San Franeisco. Mon. Willinm D. Pringle, President Oakland City Couna cil: I comgratulate you on the stand made by the Oak. land Council .on the water question and wish you success. JAMES D. PHELAN, Mayor San Francisco. man Earl after the ordinance was passed. He reserved the right to in- troduce an amendment when the ordi- nance came up for final passage, and when this was objected to by President Pringle on the grounds that any amend- ment should be made now as its future introduction might jeopardize the le- gality of the ordinance cn account of the time necessary for publication, Earl said: “Oh, we will fix it some way.” The general impression made by this remark was that an attempt would be made to throw the ordinance over the legal time and then have it declared il- legal by the courts, but with the five stanch friends on the floor, backed by President Pringle with the deciding vote, the people have nothing to fear on this score, and they may rest assured that Oakland water rates will remain as fixed in the report of-the Fire and ‘Water Committee. Those upon whom the people of Oak- land can depend are President Pringle, Councilmen Upton, Brosnahan, Cuvel- lier, Girard and Rowe, and their solid front will prevent any scheme frem be- ing consummated which will be detri- mental to their constituents.

Although Glenbeigh, the once famous | pointer dog, has departed to the happy hunting grounds, his great performances in the field have not been forgotten by Howard Vernon and sportsmen who have | had the pleasure of shooting over him | when he was in the land of the living. | As already stated, the dog was pol- | soned in Bakersfield just previous to the fleld trials, and there were among the sportsmen who witnessed the trials some who thought that the grand old dog had been poisoned intentionally; then again, there were others who believed that the dog had partaken of meat that was poi- soned purposely to destroy the coyotes which are numerous on the plains and that his death was purely accidental. However, the handler of the dog Al- lender and a dog breaker named Camp- | bell, with some gentlemen who take an interest in fleld sports, met yesterday in | a downtown establishment and a hot exchange of words between the dog breakers resulted. Allender cross-questioned Campbell re- | garding his trip to Bakersfield and also about remarks he: (Campbell) had made | in_reference to Allender and Glenbeigh, which roused the Scottish blood in the velns of Campbell, who retaliated with a statement that if any one person had an object in disposing of the dog in ques- tion it would be the man who iS now en- gaged in looking after the interests of the E. V. Sullivan kennels of English setters. At this insinuation Allender's little | brown eyes flashed, and bracing himself | for an attack he sent out his powerful right, but the blow fell short by an inch | of the nasal appendage of Mr. Campbell, | but the whirr of the handler's big bunch of fives as it cleaved the “powdered” a mosphere could have been heard a block away. A famous snipe shooter, who was pres- | ent when the battle was waxing hot, said | that if Allender had happened to hit | C | it is said that in prime condition Allender can strike a 400 pound blow. Campbell, who is a giant in front of Allender, did not dream of an attack of the fists being made upon him, and he excused himself for the great loss of time on his part in retaliating by stating that | it was a much greater surprise to him to | see Allender attempt fisticuffs than the | announcement of the death of Glenbeigh. Friends interfered, howzver, before cold irons could be used, and the respective | handlers were ushered to places of safety. | But it is said the end has not arrived, | Campbell intends to issue a broadsword challenge to Allender, the contest to take place on the Farallon Islands at any time Mr. Allender is ready for a strictly busi- ness undcrmkin%‘. but then, as Mr. Alen- der has never had an opportunity of learning how to manipulate a sword either when mounted or on foot, the | challenge will doubtless not be accepted. Allender wants the mitts or the raw *uns; he believes only in the manly art as a sportsmanlike means of self-de- fense, and Campbell will, in all proba- Dbility, have to practice fisticuffs if he hopes to meet Allender on the fleld of battle. Doubtless the Olympic Club, which is now reaching out for fistice talent, will offer “the handlers” good financial in- ducements to spat before the members. — e ————————— The City Loses Its Land. The Supreme Court decided the case of the City and County of San Francisco against Mrs. Ellen Grotte in her favor for the possession of 35x12% feet of land which has been in litigation for some time. This plece was originally deedea to the city by the husband of Mrs. Grotte revious to his death some years ago. ‘he trial court decided against her and | on her appeal this was reversed on the ground that as the land in question was homesteaded it was necessary to have the consent of the wife to the dedication before it could be legally done. —_——————— In the Divorce Courts.

Lt/ Captain Thomas Young- Passes AwWau. Captain Thomfi Young of the firm of Young & Allen, pioneer stevedores of this city, dled at his residence, 418 Lombard street, at 7 o'clock last night, after a protracted illness, at the age of 70 years. The deceased was one of the best- known men about the water front. Captain Young was born in Liverpool, England. He went to sea when only 14 years old and since then he has visited every port in the khown world. Arriving in San Francisco in 1850 he rested from blue water service and contented himself with the command Of coasting vessels on the northern route. In the emantime he saw a good chance to make a living at the stevedore business and entered into partnership with the late Commodore Allen, a partnership which was continued for forty-seven years. The deceased leaves a widow and two sons, Harry and John, to mourn his loss. His funeral will take place from St. Francis Church this morning at 10 g;flbek. at which time a solemn high mass will be celebrated.

Aylett Cotton and Miss Trumbo Transgress the Rules of Hoyle. “LIKE A PUBLIC BALL.” Even an Angel From the Great White Throne Would Have Got the Glassy Orb. i A s0b, a sigh, a nervous twisting to- gether of two dainty hands and a quick fluttering of the breath sadly indica- tive of incipient hysteria. Then her eyes sought the exact spot where the chandelier was suspended from the ceiling, as if in mute appeal for par- don from above at the sacrilegious character of what she intended to ut- ter—and then she spoke. “Why, if a dewy-robed angel from the base of the Great White Throne had appeared at my ball under the same conditions I would have been’ just as horrified.” 3 The speaker was Mrs. Murphy, -Mrs. 8. G. Murphy, wife of the president of the First National Bank. Her agita- tion was something touching to wit- ness. By her own confession she has been laboring under this awful load of woe since last Friday evening, the oc- casion ef her fancy dress cotillon in Maple Hall at the Palace Hotel. And she blames young Aylett Cotton for it all, he who is distinguished from his famous brother of the football bangs by blond locks not quite so abundant. Miss Trumbo, sister of the colonel, comes into the tragedy in the role of chief assistant to the villain. Mrs. Murphy had laid her plans for | that cotillon with loving care for | months. It was to be the occasion when her youngest daughter, Adelaide, who has been carefully cultivating a becom- ing Parisian accent for many moons, was to make her bow in the charming | role of debutante and take society at the point of the bayonet. Portraits ga- lore illustrating dainty feminine finery worn at various epochs in the Jand that fathered the great Napoleon had been carefully studied, and when the bud appeared at the cotillon she was at- | tired a la Francaise from her exquisite coiffure to the tip of her peat Louis XV slipper. All went well, and everybody was gay and light-hearted until the mysterious noses divulged the fact that instead of 150 persons there were just 151 present. Mrs. Murphy was mystified, but soon had matters explained. Young Aylett Cotton came forward with a young lady to introduce to the hostess, Colonel Trumbo's sister, who is here on a visit from Salt Lake. And then Mrs. Murphy's orbs turned glassy. Incidentally, her daughter fainted dead away three times during the evening— cause Uunknown. Now Mrs. Murphy is full of words, words, words, despite the fact that she has already dispensed chunks of verbal jce anent the subject to all of society’s devotees. So, as a result, Mrs. Grundy is in clover. Mrs. Murphy asserts that Mr. Cot- ton brought the ung lady without first consulting the hostess, which cer- tainly is not according to Hoyle. This the young fellow vigorously denies, saying that Miss Murphy herself au- thorized him tc invite Miss Trumbo. But the hostess will not be appeased by any such explanation, and insists that Mr. Cotton has attended cotillons and “fortnightlies” before, and should| know better. “They acted just as if they were at a public ball or ‘function,’” she asserts. | And if ‘there is anything worse than that under the sun it is impossible of conception to the lay mind. it e [N MEMORY OF LINCOLN His Name Will Be Honored by Appropriate Exer- cises.
