He said: “I know that the boats and the car lines will be ply- ing in and out of Emeryville as soon as the syndicate can put them in. It was a dream with us for years, but until now no action has been taken. From business.propo- sitions made to me by the princi- pals, I know that they are in earn- est. No, I cannot say what these propositions are, but upon the strength of them I felt that real estate in this vicinity was so good an investment that only the other day I -bought another acre of Emeryville land for $15,000.” Mr. Stoer further spoke of the unwarranted opposition to the plan by certain local publications, and reiterated that though cold water had been used in plenty, prelimin- ary arrangements had not been re- tarded.

One of the principal argu- ments in favor of this proposed ferry Is the fact that the people in the northern and western part of Oakland and those of Berkeley and intermediate points have to come to the southern end of this city before fllcg can actually start in the di- rection of San Francisco. In other words, they have to of a long trlangvls before the make any progress. With this new line they could save this extra time and travel and thereby enjoy much more satisfactory service. There is a fleld here for such an enterprise, but it needs to be placed be- traverse one side THE OLYMPICS FAIL TO SCORE. “Tuev'RE CHEATING ME OmPIRE NEwW In Fooraace TacTics Californias 16, Olympics O. Another defeat for the Olympics; an- other victory for California; a lecture from Cochran; strange words from the lips of Pete Smith, and a score of 16—0 That is the story of the football game yesterday between the Athletic club and the College men. Cochran was dissatis- fled at the meagerness of the score; Smith was disgruntled at the absence of any score for the Olympics, and, therefore, Cochran lectured and Smith sald some- thing that is not heard in polite society. The game was the best seen this year, due to the manifested strength of the Olympics. In the two previous games they were notoriously weak, but in the match yesterday there was some show of playing. Hobbs, the blg and fleshy, played left guard. It was his introduction to football this season, as he had not trained a day, and went on without a minute’s notice. His playing, considering the disadvantages under which he labored, Unassisted, he was_ surprisingly fine. would go through the California line again and again, his muscles sore from thelr unaccustomed exertlons and his wind In the worst possible condition. Sheehy also played well,as did Bandy and Erskine. In fact, the entire Olympic line was incomparably stronger than in the two preceding games. The playing of the University of Cali- fornia team was not as full of dash and spirit as was anticipated. Perhaps It was due to the unexpected front in their way to touchdown or a feeling of security. In- dividually, some very creditable work was done. Kaarsberg played good ball, kick- ing for substantial distances and occa- sfonally pirouetting in the air for a flying gyratory leap. Craig, on the California left end, shone with brilllance, His going down the field on kicks and his tackling were splendid exhibitions of football. The game was more interesting to the spectators on acount of the abundance of kicking on both sides. California gained an inestimable advantage over its ad saries by the superiority of Kmlrsbe:’fi S Il he unting.” Percy Morse failed to cover ance in his kicking, but this w failed in.

Altogether, the match was on a higher plane than any other of the season. In a very few minutes after the kick off the blue and gold scored the first touch- down.

An offside play on the part of the clubmen gave the blue and gold five yards and then Hall carried the pig- skin over. No goal was kicked. Score 5-0, and the Olympics sad.

You won't find any one in this section who does not want it or won't work for it and put his money up if necessary.

The transport Zealandia, which was so badly battered by a typhoon on the 4th of last month, arrived in port last night and anchored off Meiggs wharf to await the quarantine officer, whose arrival was anxiously watched for by those on board, who were eager to get ashore. Captain Dowdell reports an uneventtul voyage of 17 days 14 hours from Nagasakl, but the excitement before that port was reached was great enough to satisfy him, The vessel left Manila on August 24, and eleven days afterward she was struck by the typhoon. Boats, ventrators, railings, deckhouses and everything movable were carried away. The anchors broke loose, and all on board were pretty badly shak- en up. The only person severely Tnjured, according to Captain Dowdell, was the quartermaster, T. Cheathem, whose arm was broken; but several of the firemen were slightly scalded by a bursting steam pipe. The Zealandla put into Nagasaki, where she was overhauled at the drydock. Lieutenant Elliott of the Baltimore, who is going home on a furlough, and seven sick marines bound for the hospital at Mare Island, were the only passengers on the troopship, The invalld bluejackets are: F. W. Humphreys, B. G. Owens, B. J. Sjoberg and_F. of the Mec- Culloch, J. C. Warner of the Petrel, H. Boothby of the Boston and E. Caldweli of the Baltimore. On board sel were the remains of the late T. K. Freeman, who committed suicide while the vessel lay in Nagasaki harbor, Japan. Just before the war broke out he' enlisted at Mare Island, and was assigned as chaplain of the Baltimore, Soon after the memorable enfilasemenl of Manila bay Freeman's health began to ADVERTISEMENTS.

The Alviso and San Jose stern-wheel steamer F. M. Smith stuck in the slough again Friday morning, and all efforts to pull her out yvesterday were unavailing. She is badly strained, and Captain Denny fears that she is so badly damaged that she will not float. The channel of the creek is very nar- row, and when making her way up the slough the vessel struck the right bank bow on. The stern swung around and lodged on the other bank. When the tide | went out the steamer sagged and was badly strained. The tug Annie was sent up Friday night to pull the Smith out, but even at high water was unable to do The Annie returned last evening, and so. the Liberty, a light-draft tug, was sent up to see if the Smith could be rescued from her sad plight. Shipping men believe that as the ves- sel could not be floated off.at high tide it is very doubtful if she can be saved. —— e Friends of Humanity.
