MANY VOTES IN ITS FAVOR COUNCIL URGED TO PROVIDE IMMEDIATE RELIEF. Rev. Father McNally Believes That an Issue of Bonds Would Be a Proper Pro- ceeding. Oakland Office San Franelsco Call, %8 Broadway, Aug. 12. Next Monday night the City Council will deal with the most important meas- ure it has taken up during its term of office. The ordinance providing for the improvement of Lake Merritt, Cemetery Creek and the adjacent sewers will be up for passage. The wealthfest and most | influential citizens of Oakland have allied themselves together for the expgessed purpose of bringing about this improve- ment. The Lake Merritt Sanitary Im- provement Club is now doing everything possible to secure the passage of the or- dinance. At a conference with the Ordinance and Judiclary Committee of the City Council there appeared before it Captain Edwin Goodall, Rev. Father McNally, A. Schil- ling, Hugh Craig, Captain Mein, Thomas foffitt, Colonel Ed- wards, Ira Bishop, Edson Adams, Charles Yale and several others. They endeavored to impress upon the Counéil the necessity from a sanitary point of view of carry- ing out the improvements outlined in the | ordinance. Auditor Snow declares that the lake is a nuisance and a menace, and the condi- tion of the treasury and financial facts should not be taken as an against the work. To carry out the im- provement this year would require a levy of $1 37. To make it in two years would require $1 2. At present the rate is | $1 12. Rev. J. B. McNally is heartily in favor of the improvement, and thought it should be made at once, for by dredging the lake now it was simply doing a part of the work which must be done in the future. If a place were wanted to dump the refuse from the lake he said there were still some marshes in West Oakland that should be filled In. He wanted the city to issue bonds for a systematic sewer sy tem, and from what he saw and knew Lake Merrit must be dredged right away Ira Bishop, who is superintendent of l;:e the street car lines owned by Realty Syndicate, declares that his com- ny paid a large amount of taxes and | that It has not applied for a reduction of $50,000, which was granted last vear, sim- ply because they wish to show public spirit and a wiilingness to contribute a share_to public improvements. There is some doubt regarding the man- ner of obtaining the money to make the improvements, but all agree that if the ordinance be passed the mon: vill be forthcoming.

INQUESTS ARE SUPPRESSED PRIVATE PARLORS ARE NOT DESIRABLE MORGUES. Oakland Should Have a Public In- stitution Similar to That Provided in San Fran- cisco. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %8 Broadway, Aug. 12. Coroner Baldwin has announced that he is so disgusted with his office that under no consideration would he acoept another | term. Dr. Baldwin went into the office with the belief that the last Legisiature would so fix matters that a proper public Morgue would be established in this county. Such a move was not taken, and under the existing law the county can build a morgue but cannot appropriate one cent for its maintenance. Dr. Baldwin is the first medical man who has held the office in this county, and after nearly four years of experience he says he is convinced that the Coroner should be a medical man and that~the office should be conducted on the same principles as the San Francisco Morgue. “1 am convinced,” sald Coroner Baldwin to-day, ‘“‘that since 1 have taken office many cases that should have been the | morning he died.

If ever there were a city needing a properly equipped morgue, it is Oakland. (\'flh so many train acci- dents, it is not right to have to drag along the way we do. The various un- dertakers who have made morgues of their private parlors have done very well, considering that there is no morgue.

OAKLAND, Aug. 12.—Ben Towne, a young man of West Oakland, is on tne small book and in a cell. He was arrested two nights ago by officers who heard a shot, and they were told he had attempt- ed to kill a woman with whom he was tween undertakers in this connection, and I have no doubt that some cases have been kept from becoming public in this county by undertakers because they feared that taking the body to the morgue might lose them some custom. From a commercial point of view, they cannot be blamed, but it is a disgraceful conditlons of affairs in a city the size of Oakland. “After I took office I consulted with Deputy District Attorney Lin Church, as to the proper steps to be taken to es- tablish a morgue. Mr. Church looked up the law and found that it is legal for the Supervisors to establish a morgue, but there is no way in which they can provide for maintaining the necessary wagons or deputies, because such action on their {\Art would be practically an in- crease of the salary of a county officer. Should there be a consolidation of the city and county the matter would then come under the same law as that gov- erning San Francisco, and a proper morgue could be maintained. Very nat- urally much busjness goes to the under- taker who supplies the morgue for thHe time being, and this of course creates much competition, for no other under- taker likes to send his cases to a rival undertaker, even though the latter is the eadquarters, and this is not SUTAD'S WILL CATICIZED Trust'Clause Said to Be . lllegal. " HALF THE HEIRS ARE DEAD CI'.L'Y HAS A VALID CLAIM ON i THE LIBRARY. Belief Is General That the Dead " Millionaire Left a Later Tes- tament Than That of 1882. The :final disposition of the estate of the late Adolph Sutro will be awaited Iwith intense interest by the public as well-as by the heirs. That this docu- ment of May 22, 1882, is his last will is a matter of doubt, but a later document has not_yet been found. Mr. Sutro re- peatedly-announced, publicly and in priv- ate, that he intended to give his mag- Aificent library and the Heights to the city, and when the board of regents ac- ceptéd the: site for the Affillated Colleges .t was -stipulated in writing that Sutro vhould erect a building on the adjacent and and establish the library there. In ihe. opinion of many eminent attorneys | this agreement is a valid claim on the - gstate. of the dead millionaire. fany persons who were more or less fiitimate .with Mr. Sutro express a belief “that 'hé :mgde a will in recent years, or not-a’ will that somewhere among his .. papers- will be found elaborate memor- anda:‘directing . the disposition of his es- 2 less 4 new will is found the docu- ~“ment dated May 22, 1882, will, of course, ed- for probate. = But it will not in the first place, the trust nder ‘the Supreme Court decision ikerley case, is invalid.

' Mrs. Kiuge, who says she is the widow Cof Mr: Satro, is out of the city, and . whether or not she has anything tangible * with which to establish the validity of . her claim is known only to herself and her. attorney, Van R. Paterson. Judge Paterson left the clty yesterday after- hoon to consult with his client. Mrs. ‘Kluge has stated on one or two occa- sions that she knew she and her two _children would be provided for in Mr, -"Sutro's will. Her attorney says she will have no dificulty in proving that Sutrg was the father of the children, and that he had frequently acknowledged his re- lationship to them. Whether a new will is found or not, -Mrs. Kluge will make a demand for a share in the estate and will carry the fight .to the courts if her clalms are not recognized and satisfied. .

Some years ago Elliott Moore broke down mentally and his brother took charge of Mr. Sutro's legal business. Jo- | seph Moore says the dead millionaire often declared his intention to make a will, but he never informed his attorney that he had carried out his intenti>ns. | “Mr. Moore expressed an opinion that the | will which has been made public would | be set aside, as it clearly came under the decision= by the Supreme Court which de- clare against trust devises. Two gehtlemen who formerly acted as private Secretaries for Mr. Sutro and who Were necessarily familiar with his busi- ness affairs are of the opinion that he made a will within the last five years and that it will be found in a few days, when | the dead man’s papers are looked over. | These gentlemen further state that Mr. | Butro was not at all liable to take any | 6ne into his confidence. He was a bit sen- | sitive on_the s wills, and, al though he occ mentioned the topic it was usually in reference to some one else. Since 1882 the value of the estate has more than doubled. Mr. Sutro spent large sums of money in improving his property and after writing the will he also secured the thousands of priceless volumes which constitute one of the greatest libraries in America. ‘When examination of title to the cele- brated Sutro library comes to be closely examined it will be found resting in the hands of the Regents of the University of California. That seems to be the opinion of the board and it is a known fact that Governor Budd does not entertain any other view of the case. Speaking of the sgubject yesterday the Governor remarked that the buildings of the Affiliated Col- leges were erected on the Sutro tract on the condition that the land and library should be given to the university. In the deed the library is not mentioned, but the proposition made by Mr. Sutro to convey the library was given in writing and was never recalled. All through the long ne- gotiations preliminary to the selection of a permanent site the value of the Sutro library was discussed by the regents. Mr. Sutro‘s intention to transfer the library to the university was expressed orally and in w ‘ting and so often expressed that the rege' s had no doubt of the donor’'s intentions. | | | | WHERE CATS ABOUND WITH YOWL TERRIFIC FELINES MAY SEVER A LONG- STANDING FRIENDSHIP. District Attorney Foote’s Pets In- crease, Multiply, Wail Nocturn- ally and Rob the World of Rest and Joy. United States Distriet Attorney Foote now goes about with an alr of distraction added to his usual dignity. Occasionally he may be observed to take a sudden start, and to ejaculate *‘scat.” Mr. Foote is haunted. Gaunt felines ever arch their backs before his excited imagination, in his ears ring the yowl of the fence-walk- ing Tom, and all about him the alr seems filled with floating bair. He has dreams of kittens, single or in litters. Phantom | pussies cavort upon his chest as he slum- bers. The case is a melancholy one. For a time Mr. Foote lived out on Green street, and a trio of cats adopted him. They fed in his back yard, and behaved themselves in a manner altogether seem- ly. The Barclay Henley family lived next door, and while they were aware of the cats, no trouble ever resulted, until the Footes moved away and began living at a hotel. To take the cats to the new abode was impracticable. They were left behind, forgot their manners, and begin to increase and multiply. Soon the vicin- ity was alive with cats. Some had been born there and others were wooed from a distance by the song of the assembled force of cats. The three grew to a crowd, the crowd to a multitude like the e N His Last Photograph Cherished as a Sad Souvenir by Miss Carrie Benedict. departure for 4 TJUST before his + | Miss Carve Benedict, ¥ This photograph was the 4 she so highly esteemed. 38 P Company A, First California, presented his photograph to his friend with whom he had last one he had taken and is a very cor- 4 rect likeness of the hero, who has given his life for his country's cause. 4 It is cherished by Miss Benedict as a sad souvenir of the young man Manila Sergeant Maurice Justh, of long been acquainted. et B R o o R gt b S sands of the sea for number.

COOK & SON, Agents, stree [ ]15 ! 1 621 Market A stenographer for a large would often have the most horrible heartened that I finally told my em and I sleep right through till morni = law firm in Boston had a rathe’ common experience: “My work,” she said, “is very nervous and ex- acting, and, I used to leave the office utterly exhausted. At nightI dreams, and sometimes wake up in a cold sweat. Once I found myself sitting bolt upright in bed clutche ing the bed clothes franically with both hands. I became so dise ployer I must give up my position, ‘but he laughed, and said he wanted me to stay, and then suggest: that I try Ais remedy for such troubles. He gave me half a dozen Ripans Tabules and told me to take one after dinner and another before going to bed. I did so, and rested better that very night Now, whenever I feel nervous, I take just one Tabule before retil rin; ing, and get up thoroughly rutax and ready for business. For a sleep-producer and a quicter of the - gerves, these Tabules are simply wonderful.”
