OAKLAND, July 1.—David Barry will hereafter pay attention to notices which read “No peddlers wanted” and similar signs. He was convicted in the Police Court this morning of disturbing the peace of Police Officers C. H. Truman and W. F. Woods, who room in East Oakland. Officer Woods posted the following notice on the door: Don’t come up the stairs; don't hammer on the door; don't try to ring the bell. We work by night and sleep b day. We won't get up fire excepted. By rder of two big policemen. 1If this will not suffice we will get a Gatling gun. Barry is an old man, who makes a liv- ing going from door to door polishing furniture. In his daily travels he went to the headquarters of Truman and Woods. He disregarded.the sign, ham- mered at the door, woke the policemen from their sleep, got in to a quarrel with them, was arrested for disturbing their eace, and this morning a jury found im guilty. He will be sentenced to-mor- row. THERE WAS NO DEBT TO COLLECT MISS CLARK . WILL DEMAND SATISFACTION. | ' Will Follow Up Her Attack With a Curtain Pole by an Appeal to the Courts if Neces- sary. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %08 Broadway, July 1. Miss Clark, the superintendent of the Woman's Exchange, intends to secure a complete vindication through the courts if necessary, from the debt collectors and Constable who raided the Exchange a week ago and arrested her for battery. Miss Clark admitted driving Constable Von Kapff and Attorney Heaton from the Woman’'s Exchange with a curtain pole. Judge Allen, in the Police Court, commended her stand, but expressed h: regret that she had not made better use of her 0 Miss Clark says that the alleged debt which the intruders attempted to collect by snatching her watch and purse has 1o, existence, and she will try to collect damages for the unwarranted trespass upon the Exchange. “‘Some time ago,” says Miss Clark to- | day, “an insurance solicitor visited me and tried to induce me to take out a life policy. 1 told him I did not desire to do so, but he was very persistent and finally assured me that 1 was taking no risk in signing an application. 1 signed what I believed to be a forma. applica- | tion for a. policy, but which I was as- sured made me responsible for no pay ment.

Line of March Is Laid Out by the Grand Marshal. Oakland Office S8an Francisco Call, %8 Broadway, July 1. The arrangements for the Fourth of July are now completé. This morning Grand Marshal Webb Pearce anounced | that the line of march will be from the| foot of Broadway to Sixth street, thence | to Washington, to Fourteenth, into Broad- | way, down to Seventh, where it will countermarch and proceed out to Twenty- fourth street, where the reviewing stand will be stationed. The parade will start at 10:05 a. m. and all organizations are expected to be in | line at 9:30. The committees are all busy | taking the necessary precautions to see | that their plans are faithfully executed. | The City Hall will be decorated and the nagging between Councilmen regard- ing the small fund required is ended. Councilman Earl telegraphed to Presi- dent Heitman, who is now out of the State, and the latter consented to vote for the necessary appropriation. This | insures a sufficient vote to pass the bill | for bunting, flags and greenery, and the | work of beautifying the municipal barn has been commenced. | The military authorities are taking great interest in the sham battle which will be fought in the afternoon on Adams | Point. The plans for the attack and de-~ fense are very elaborate and will be car- | ried out by 2500 soldiers, The parade committee has not yet re- ceived a reply from Governor Budd, but there is a firm belief that he will-accept | the Invitation to attend the sham fight. It has been decided to hold the exercises | in the Macdonough Theater. Captain Witthorne of Tennesseé, a brother of the | Congressman, will be one of the speak- ers. = The finance committee is receiving lib- eral support, and there wilj be no possi- | bility of a. deficit. | The Mexican War veterans will assem- | ble at the City Hall and will be provided | with carriages. Mayor Thomas is mak- | ing another effort to secure the Wyoming Battery for the parade. A yacht gun will be placed at the foot of Broadway to fire salutes, and it is probable that the Eiguth Kegiment at Camp Barrett will take part in the celebration. Company A, Fifth Regiment, has been accepted by the committee, and will do séntry duty at the battle ground. | | Asks a New Franchise." | OAKAND, July The Oakland Tran- sit Company has changed its application for franchise at Eleventh and Oak streets. The company asked for a right of way from Broadway to Oak and down Oak to its existing tracks on Eleventh street. Thi route would make a very dangerous curve at Eleventh and Oak because that block is one of the most thickly inhabited in the city, there being a score, of families facing the two sides that would make the turn. This matter has been called to the attention of the company and it has altered its applica- tion so that the franchise asked for will go down Twelfth street to Fallon; thence to Eleventh street and across the tres- tle. This is a much safer route, will meet with no objection from residents and will no doubt be granted by the City Council. —_——— Estates Appraised. OAKLAND, July 1.—The appraisement of the estate of Jane Easton was filed this morning. The estimated value is $62,410. One piece of land is on Market street, near Sixth, in San Francisco, and is valued at $50,000; a piece at Fourteenth and Harrison in this city is valued at $4360. The balance is money in bank. The estate of Caleb Sadler of Berkeley has been appraised at $18,747. The per- sonal property is worth $14,397 and real estate 50. The estate of Alexander Calhoun was appraised to-day as follows: Homestead, $6230; insurance, $1000: cash, $338. _—ee———— Fire on Eighth-Streec Bridge. OAKLAND, July 1—Fire was discov- ered on the Eighth-street bridge this morning. Flames were seen creeplng through the planks and the brisk win threatened a serious fire. Almost imme- diately after the -discovery the sprinkling car of the East Oakland road came along and succeeded in checking the fire unti a chemical engine arrived and finished the work. The fire was probably caused by children and fireworks. A —_— e Oakland News Notes. OAKLAND, July 1—Mrs. H. A. McBride, widow man, died In this city yesterday after a life of sixty-nine years.

The Legal Advisers of His Daughters ‘Wili Receive Large Fees. The contracts between Mrs. Theresa A. Oelrichs and Virginia M. Fair, daughters’| of the late James G. Fair, and their legal advisers, Lloyd & Wood and Garber, Bishop & Wheeler, have been placed on record. The contracts were entered into February 15, 188, and would not have been made public now were it not for the fact that the interested parties were anxfous to save the war tax of §0 cents imposed on each $100 valuation of the sum involved in contracts hereafter recorded. The law went into effect yesterday, and, in consequence, the Recorder’s office has been kept busy for several days past. 1t is roughly imated that they have | saved $70,000 by placing their deeds, mort- | gages and contracts on cecord. The contracts between Mrs. Oelrichsand Miss Fair provide that their legal ad- visers shall recelve 5 per cent of Senator Fair's estate in the event of the trust clause of his will being declared invalid.

Henceforth the Actual Value ‘of Property Must. Be Stated. With the fssudnce of the internal reve- nue stamps for the collection of the varfous taxes placed by the Government upon- the-business men of the community has come a general, although not ex- pressed, dissatisfaction. The insurance and real estate brokers content themsclves with the fact that money collected from them personally will be pald by those with whom they deal, and. consequently such an act of govern- ment is to be applauded and not decried. To oppose the tax, especially as it is for the good of the country, would be incon- sistent in the extreme, and would have a tendency to conflict with the principles of patriotism. Although the insurance men contemplate a partial payment of the gen- eral tax, the real estate hrokers are sanguine that, as far as they are con- cerned, the money ‘expen.ed by them In the purchase of the necessary stamps will be in the long run returned by the pub- lie. .

The tax coliected on rents is regulated and depends solely on the extent of time and the value of the collection.

Unless the Government stamp is affixed to every receipt given or taken, such re- ceipt can be declared null and void. As a consequence of this fact the Revenue Collector's office was deluged yesterday | by hundreds of applicants, eager to get possession of the legal forms in order to carry on their business.

Santa Cruz and Fresno Heavily Fined for Squabbling Over Last | ’; Sunday’s Game. A special meeting of the executive | committee of the Pacific Coast Baseball | ident Bert in the Clunie building last | evening to consider the disputed game at Fresno on Bunday last between the Fres- | no and Santa Cruz teams. The entire board of officers and all the members of tHe executive committee were present. A large number of witnesses were ex- amined, including the captains of the contesting teams and Umpire Burleigh, who officiated. Affidavits were also pre- sented, and a petition numerouslg signed by residents of Fresno was read. Upon the conclusion of the taking of testimony the executive committee held an execu- tive session, upon the conclusion of which | it was announced that the management of the Santa Cruz team was fined $100 | for leaving the grounds during the eighth inning, and before the conclusion of the game. The Fresno team was fined $25 for not using the official umpire desig- nated by the president, and an additional $75 for not settling promptly with the vis- iting team. In an interview last night President Bert said: ““This business of teams leav- ing the diamond before the conclusion of the game must be stopped. Baseball play=- ers have no right to quit under any pre- text before the end of the game after the baseball loving public have paid the price of admission with the expectation of seeing a game. 1 have instructed Mr. Stevens, the secretary of the league, to | notify th&managomem of all the teams in the Pactfle Coast League that if a sim- ilar offense is committed again during the season 1 shall expel the captain of the offending team and fine every member of the team quitting. If T am not sus- tained iIn this action by the manager of an offending team I shall deem such con- duct suflicient justification to forfeit the franchise of the offending managers. 1 think such a course is but justice to the baseball loving public who support the national game. My reason for expelling the captain and simply fining the other players is that no team will leave the dia- mond unless ordered to do o hy its cap. tain, but there ought to be something to ?revent disgruntled or dissatisfied players rom leaving the fleld and disappointing the audience.” WHERE GAME FISHES MAY BE CAUGHT There will be quite an exodus of ang- lers from this city to mountain rivers, streams and lakes during the holidays. The trains and boats leaving this city to- day will carry many joyful hearts to the happy fishing waters where the gamy rainbow, cutthroat and Eastern - trouts will receive the disciples of Walton with open mouths. Jim Chesl the Chrons* cle’s authority on hackle spoons - and spinners, will journey ‘to . Truckee this evening, where an’ immediate attack wilt be made upon the finny tribe. 5 Jack Sammi and his celebrated bulldog Young Lorsbach are rusticating at Web- ber Lake. The dog is assisting his mas- ter to land cutthroats. and also in the killing' of mountain lions. “Frying Pan” Miller will start thiy everiing for Boulder Creek. He will camp out, of course. “Doc” Watt contem- plates another whip at “Boulders’ riffies. | Cal Young recently returned from Truckee and reports that the evening fish- ing is excellent.

The members are Joe Stevens, Wil- liam and Frederick McGregor, William Shattuck, Dave Martin and the great ref- eree and master of fistic ceremonies, Phi ‘Wand. . Jack Lemmer caught an exceedingly large basket of black bass yesterday in “Unknown” Lake, and, as a matter of course, his friends are enjoying great flsh dinners to-day. Lemmers’ friend, Otto Snoozer, is having good trout fishing in McKinney's Lake near Tahoe. John Gal- lagher of Oakland will soon purchase a section of flshing ground on the McCloud River. John intends to build an Irish cas- tle on the property where a grand open- 1n§ will be beld in the near future. First-class trout fishing can_be had on Salmon Creek, ¥. Dolliver, J. Bernard, 1. Johnson and F. Maynard will whip the lagoon on Sunday and Monday. The black bass season opened yester- day and Frank Marcus and company expeet great catches to-day. Marcus has been camped on the banks ef the Rus- sian for some days. James Watt, better known as the “Doc," enjoyed excellent trout fishing re- cently on Boulder Creek. He reports that several large trout are landlocked in the deep pools. John Benn is the inventor and maker of a trout fly which, according to all accounts, is n(‘(‘m‘ng{llshlnfl great work on the Truckee and McCloud rivers. Benn has named the fly after the great Ameri- can warship, the Oregon. -The Fish Commissioners are highly elated over a case they won a few g&ys ago against Chinese fishermen who were caught with large numbers of smail fishes in their possession. The case came up before Police Judge Mogan, who imposea a heavy fine on the fishermen, who have been constantly violating the fish laws. 8" wils and General Tracy Gives His Opinion of the New Navyy In Next Sunday’s Call.

It's impossible for me to sing a hard opera without having a good meal before; but I often take a Ripans Tabule to help digest it.
