OAKLAND'S PUBLIC PARKS. Ordinances Passed to Print Provid- ing for a Bond Issue. OAKLAND, Aug. 15.—Several important matters were passed upon by the Council this evening. The ordinance calling for an election for the purpose of issuing 320,000 bonds for a public park and for park improvements was passed to print. The money is to be -expended as follows: Two hundred and forty thousand dollars for Adams Point, $20,000 for improving West ‘Oakland_Pirk property, $10.000 for Independence Square, $50,00 for improve- ment of Adams Point, if purchased. The Lake Merritt' Sanitary Improve- ment Club appeared to advocate the sage of the ordinance appropriating 090 for dredging Lake Merritt, but argu- | ment was unnecessary. as the measure was passed to print unanimously.
