About two months ago Judge Fred V. Wood gave to The Call an interview stat- ing that his office should be“aholished, as it was merely wasting the taxpayers’ money. The statement created much -in- terest at the time, as it was the first in- stance on record where an office-holder showed an Inclination to put himself out of a job which produced a good salary and is practically a sinecure. The campaign s now opening, and Jus- tice Wood has followed up his first move by sending the following letter to Sen- ator Stratton, seeking to have the office abolished by the Legislature: OAKLAND, Aug. 4, 1808 Hon, F. 8.

Judge Wood says that ft would be of no use for him to resign, as that would not abolish the office and would only give the Supervisors an opportunitly to ap- point a successor, and as fhe salary is in the nature of a bonus inflicted on the in- cumbent by the electors, Judge Wood says he has certainly the prior right to it. ———e—————— A DESTRUCTIVE BLAZE. An Early Mc’)ming’ Fire Consumes Over $10,000 Worth of Property Near Piedmont Junction. OAKLAND, Aug. 5.—A destructive fire at 3:30 o’clock this morning out at Pled- mont Junction consumed the butcher shop, grocery and saloon of Bernard Mc- Dermott, a blacksmith shop owned by H. P.

SWIFTWATER ALL RIGHT Laymance Hears From Claim 3. | Mr. ' KNEW OF THE WOOLF LOAN | BILL OWNS HIS MANSION IN THE LAKESIDE DISTRICT. The Expedition Is Now Logging and Preparing for the Resumption of Mining Next Winter. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Aug. 5. The stockholders in “Swiftwater Bill's’ | company who reside in tlis city are not in the least alarmed over the story sent from Dawson that Mr. Gates has met With a pecunfary unpleasantness. One member of the expedition led north by Gates from this city some months ago returned from Dawson to-day, and | brought a very reassuring report to Di- rector W. J. Laymance. | It was in Oakland that Mr. Gates’ | dream of taking to Dawson a company of adventurers was realized. Mr. Gates made a good impression on the com- munity by purchasing the beautiful Hen- shaw mansion in the Lakeside district and paying $25,000 for it, and after that it was an easy matter for him to form | a stock company. Mr. Gates was the | resident, Willlam "J." Henshaw (the | anker) vice-president and Mr. Lay-| mance the general manager. Since that | time Mr. Gates' little vagaries induced Mr. Henshaw to withdraw, and Mr. | Laymance is now only a diréctor, The trouble with Dr. Woolf at Dawson which cost Mr. Gates §25,000 to settle, was | not a surprise to the local stockholders. “We were aware of the fact,” said Mr. | | Laymance, “that ‘Swiftwater’ borrowed $25,000 from Dr. Woolf, and we knew that | he'entered into a partnership with Smith | to run a saloon. These affairs are sim- | ply_ copartnersiip affairs between Gates | and Smith, and do not affect the com: | pany. Claim 13, of which Gates 5 | one-cighth, turned out a quarter of a| | million doilars, and his share was over | | $40,000, so that he was quite able to at-| | tend to Dr. Woolf and stock his saloon | | besides. | _““One ot our stockholders returned from | Dawson to-day, and brought us full ac- | counts_of ‘Swiftwater's’ doings. Every- | thing is going alons smoothly, and the | property Is producing as richly as e | | | 'he men he took on the expedition 1 now engaged in logging and filing their | timber on the company's prope ready | as soon as mining again com- | for ui | mence: “Mr. the owner of the | handsome residence he bought In this city, and it is now rented, although prob- ably Mr. Gates may nof come to Oak- | land take up his permanent resl- dence. Since Mr. Gates took enough interest | |in Oakland to buy a home, in the most | select quarter, this city has felt a keeq interest in the Klondiker's doings, and | there was a fear at one time that “Swift- | water” and Mifs Gussie Lamore or her | sister might “come over here and some- what disturb the Lakeside district; but such fear is now past. OPPOSES ANNEXATION OF THE PHILIPPINES THE LABOR COUNCIL PUTS IT- SELF ON RECORD. Gates is still Unabatable Conditions Existing There Would Be a Menace to Our Government. At the meeting of the San Franeisco | Labor Council last night a firm stand was | | taken against the proposition to annex the | | Philippine Islands upon practically the | same grounds as the Council some time | ago opposed annexation of Hawail. The resolutions were prepared by W. J. Mac- arthur of the Sailors’ Union, Mr. Mac: arthur followed the sea for many years, and having visited almost every spot on the globe where merchant or carrying ships touch is well posted on the condi- | tions, manners and customs of all the im- portant islands in the Pacific. The resolu- | tions are as follows: Whereas, The developments agalnst Spain have created a question as to the ultimate policy of the United States with regard to the Spanish territory occupied by our forces, particularly in the Philippine Islands; therefore, be it Resolved, By t of the war he San Francisco Labor Coun- | cll, that we favor such disposition of the Philippines as_will redound to the greatest good of the inbabitants thereof, Without com- mitting the United States to a prolonged or permanent responsibility for thelr government and that we advise against the permanent re- tention of the islands on the following ground: 1. The possession and government of terri- tory lying at a great distance from the parent country would be a departure from the policy on which our country is founded and upon Which it has grown to its present dimensions and power; a_departure uncalled for by ‘any necessity of the general welfare and particu- larly inpdvisable under the circumstances of war and conquest with which the question is tnvolyed. 2. The possession and government of terri- tory lying in or adjacent to the tropics neces- sarily involves a policy opposed to the genius of free institutions, in that the natives of Such territory have so far displayed an in- capacity for self-government; hence they must be governed by force in violation of the funda- Tental principle that ‘‘all just governments rest upon the consent of the governed,” and at great expense and constant danger to the gov- erning power. 3 ebmtory lying In or adfacent to the tropies cannot be colonized by the American pesple, owing to the enervating influences of Qimate and sofl. Such territory must always remain a mere “possession” or ‘dependency,” the soil of which must be worked by the na- tives under conditions more or less allied to sluvery, and rendering tribute to the owners of the sofl and providing places of power and emolument to Government favorites. 4. The sadition of such a system to the ex- Isting problems of our Government, intricate and pressing as they are, would certainly work harm to our people, not only by di ublic attention from domestic affairs, Pindering the accomplishment of méans de- signed for the safe and progressive conduct of American affairs, owing to the inherent diffi- culty, 1f not impossibility, of constructing leg- fslation concerning peoplé and occupations of widely different character and location. Resolved, That we disapprove of the plea for the retention of the Philippine Islands on the protext of ‘expansion of trade’ belleving That such plea s inspired by the purely com- mercial instinet of profits, regardless of the results of permanent occupation. Reports from delegates showed a gen- eral depression in the varlous trades, the musicians and printers reporting work at their trades as unusually bad for the sea- son.

WATKINSON’S NEW 'MOVE STREETS SHOULD BE CLEAR CT | DISUSED RAILS. Many Miles Have Been Discarded Under the New System of the Railroad Syndi- cate. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Aug. 5. The tearing up of unused street rall-| road tracks in San Francisco threatens to become epidemic so far as Oakland is concerned. The desire to rid the streets of the nuisance of discarded tracks has seized Councllman Watkinson and he has inaugurated a movement to have all rafls taken up on streets where the franchises are not in use. There are many miles of such tracks in this city. When the street railroads were divided among half a dozen com- panies, routes were paralleled on alter- nate blocks in nearly all directions. When the syndicate bought in all the smaller | companies with the exception of the| Southern Pacific lines and the Haywards | electric road it entered upon an adminis- tration of economy that included eutting off every inch of road that did not pay | and of discontinuing every line that ran | in the same direction and within a few | blocks of another line. In West Oakland there were three lines going to Sixteenth-street depot; now there | are but two. In Oakland proper lines | were duplicated on almost every street in the center of the city. But now many small franchises are discarded and many less cars are required to perform the service. In East Oakland the branch of the Highland Park road along Commerce street is discontinued, and the travel both ways has been diverted to Thirteenth avenue. On Eleventh street, east of Broadway, the cars have been taken off for some distance and are brought in on Twelfth street, and a franchise is now being sought so that more of Eleventh street can be abandoned. Formerly there were two systems running to Mountain View Cemetery; now there is but ane. All these changes have left small por- tions of franchises unused all over town, the rails should be at once taken up. City Attorney Dow has advised the Council that the franchises must be for- foited by ordinance, and a resolution will be introduced at the next meeting citing | the superintendent of the company to | appear and show cause why the abandon- | portions of the road should not be cleared of the tracks MARE’S NEST IN NORTH SEA.: Discovery of Japanese Highbinders, La Mafia, Russian Nihilists and Fenians by the Commissioner.

Yesterday affernoon Irwin swore to a complaint in Judge Conian’s court for the arrest of Friedlander on the charge o felony embezziement. Irwin alleges that Friedlander on July 23 coliected $133 30 for him, which he retained for his own uses and purpose: Irwin's wife was also around the courts wanting a_warrant for Friedlander's ar- rest for using vulgar and disgraceful lan- guage toward her.
