Mortgages Foreclosed to Realize Mon- eys Borrowed by George G. Baker in Better Days. OAKLAND, Nov. 2%.—The vast real es- tate interests once held in this city by George G. Baker, formerly State president of the A. P. A., are rapldly being fore- closed upon by mortgagees. During the big boom in Oakland from 1887 to 1593, Baker was in the height of prosperity and he borrowed thousands t tracts with a view of realizing big profits during the | boom. But the boom collapsed and the mortgages Baker had given to secure notes approached the day of judgment. About a year ago Baker suddenly left deserting his wife, and he is now_su; posed to be residing in Albany, N, Y but the notes continue to fall due and the mortgages continue in foreclosure. Only a few days ago J. H. T. Watkinson was given a decree and judgment for $45,000 on property Baker had purchased in Pled- mont during the boom, with money bor- rowed from the Central Bank. \Walter T. Lewis holds a judgment for $375, and among more recent foreclosure suits are and Loan Society aggregating about $20,- 000.

In a report of the consolidation commit- tee of the Merchants' Exchange just pre- pared the argument is made that on ac- count of the opposition to the plan of | consolidating the bay cities Oakland | | should decide to incorporate alone as a city and county, leaving Alameda and The report says: There is no question of so much import- ance to the people of Oakland as the form- ing of a city and county government into one. It has hitherto been advocated to take in Alameda, Berkeley, Fruitvale and Emeryville, but all those places named do not seem to take kindly to a union. Your committee would, therefore, advocate that Oakland cut loose and go it alone. The result of us going it alone will be lower taxation in our newly formed city an county, and, instead of people ing out of the city into adjol: to escape higher taxation, it will reverse, for the taxes on the outside will be be the higher than ours, and the people will lo- cate with us and Oakland will forge ahead. The Risdon Iron Works, the Fuller Company and many others did not turn their backs on Oakland on account of the price of land. High taxes drove them away. Some people blame the Board of Trade and Merchants’ Exchange, and ask us why we did not keep those firms. It was not In our power, for the simple reason that when any one goes to the banks in San Francisco to borrow money on their plants, they are told: *'If you locate on the San Francisco side of the bay we can let you have money for 6l per cent; on the other side, whether Oakland, Berkeley or Alameda, we charge 81% per cent.'" The only calamity which will berall Oak- who are always willing to serve the dear public, will be thrown out of a Jjob. will be eleven Councilmen, a Mayor, ¢ Attorney, City Engineer, Auditor, Treas urer, Tax Collector, Assessor, Clerk and a number of other 'minor officers. Those above named, and their swarm of deputies, suck the life' blood out of the taxpayers of Oakland and keep capital, factories, home seekers and investors in realty away from our city Five Supervisors can run the government, and the president of the board can act as Mayor. If we allow ourselves to be now, and consolidate, do away with our dual government, we will have 50 cents on every $100 assessable property, and inside of | five years we will have a magnificent free library, with lots of books on its shelves, and money to run it, with free reading rooms the whole year around. We will have parks, good streets and wii' add thousands to our population, and Oaiand will be what nature Intended her for—the jewel of the Pacific. Oakland News Items.

ENOUGH VOTES [N SIGHT MERCHANTS' EXCHANGE HAS STRONGLY PROTESTED. The Council on the Eve of Going Out of Office Plans a Deal In- volving a Million Dollars. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Nov. 2. The City Hall Park Site Commit- tee of the Council met to-night and discussed - the project of selling the site and building a new City Hall elsewhere. The Council has the pow- er to sell the property and do as it pleases with the money, and the City Attorney says that there is no legal impediment in the way. Chairman Brosnahan explained that the purpose of the meeting to which all the Councilmen had been invited was to hear opinions regarding the selling of the site. He expressed himself as being favorable to the city acquiring an adequate City Hall, but was not prepared to say how it should be done. Mr. Cuvellier said he was opposed to selling the site, as he believed the city should keep the property. He caused some surprise by stating that for some reason or other this Council is not in fa- vor with the people. He made no excep- tions, but included everybody. He thought it a bad time. just on the eve of going out of office, for a Council to un- dertake such a big job. Mr. Heitmann suggested that the proper method to pursue would be to draw up an ordinance and let the matter be de- bated on the floor of the Council. He thought it high time that the city did something in regard to the City Hall, l“hgh is at present a disgrace to Oak- and. Councilman Hennebery said that he believed the majority of the people are in favor of selling the City Hall site and building_an adequate hall in some other place. He sald something must be done as the people would not vote six bits worth of bonds. He referred sarcasti- cally to people who did business in San Francisco and slept in Oakland, and said that they did not want improvements here. As he spoke he looked at Mr. Cu- vellier, and the latter replied that the people he met on the boats were more in favor of improvements than any other class. Mr. Woodward sald he had figured out the amount of money _that would be raised from the sale of the site. Cutting out the Washington street extension he d that $613,000 was the very highest price obtainabie. He sald he spoke as a real estate expert. Mr. Cuvellier suggested that there s no hurry, and sald that it could well be sub- mitted to !hedfieople at the election next March, The City Attorney was request- ed to draw up an ordinance providing for the selling of the site and stating how the money shall be disposed of. This will be ready for the next regular meeting of the Council and it will un- doubtedly be passed to print. During the meeting nothing was sald about the syn- roperty. City Attorney Dow informed Phe ‘members that the land must be dis- posed of at public_auction. The Merchants' Exchange does not fa- vor the selling of the City Hall Park site. If the report of one of its committees is true, the project is one that should be carefully considered by every taxpayer, | for it means the giving of a syndicate an opportunity to make $400,000 at the ex- D of tho city Dixector 0. "HL W ST, chatrman of the committée, has ar- rived at the following conclusion: Your committee would also draw your atten- tion to the fact that the City Hall lot which the city officials are ready to sell for $800,000 is worth over $1,000,000. With Washington street cut through, the frontage on that street alone will be worth $750,000. If a syndicate should buy it for $§00,000 they could then ask the city or the people on Washington street to pay them $100,000 to open the street. Business will be strictly business then, for the prospec- tive value of that property is 31260 per front foot, elghty feet on Fourteenth street and eighty feet on Fifteenth street. One hundred 1 sixty feet running at the above rate will ke $200,000. Half of that will therefore be Are the people a very reasonable allowance. on Washington street ready to put up that amount? Your committee hopes that the people of Oak- Jand will not allow the City Council to sell a $20 gold_piece for $10. The West Oakland Tmorovement Club has expressed jtself on the subject. It will be a chame if history should repeat itself and Oak- land should be served’ the same way as San Francisco was disgraced to all future genera- tions by their authorities in disposing of the front portion of their City Hall lot. It you want to make a San Franciscan blush ask him why he allowed that shameful act to be perpetrated. So will the people of Oak- land blush In future yvears if the City Council carries out its intention. COMMUNICATION MAY CEASE. Alameda Wants Oakland to Whack Up in Building a Tem- porary Road. ALAMEDA, Nov. %.—The Alameda au- thorities are doing considerable figuring as to what Oakland will contribute toward building the approaches to Alice-street bridge, which will *be used temporarily while the new Webster-street bridge is in course of construction. The work will cost in the neighborhood of $1000. As the roadway is used almost exclusively by teamsters from Oakland, the Alamedans thought it would be nothing more than fair if the city across the estuary would contribute _at_least one-half of the ex- pense. J. P. Taylor and George Arper, of the Oakland Merchants’ Exchange, offered yesterday evening at the residence of the Mr. and Mrs. Nethaus left this morning 'WEDDED AT SHELL MOUND Slebe is the daughter of Captain and Mrs. L.

B JUDGMENT AGAINST HARD. Default Entered Against the Alameda Justice Whose Court Was Attached. ALAMEDA, Nov. 2%.—A default has been entered in the suit of G. A. Swasey against D. T. Hard, Justice of the Peace of Alameda Township, and George Bab- cock, Court Commissioner of the Superior Court. This is the suit under which a Constable’s lock was placed on Justice Hard’s court and the furniture attached and carted away. The Judge has com- menced proceedings against the Consta- ble for $5000 damages for locking him out of his courtroom. The action is now ending in the Superior Court. The of- cer who levied the attachment on the courtroom paraphernalia will sell the oods at public auction in a few ay His = defense in_ the dama?s suit will be that Hard was not in the possession of his courtroom at the time it was attached, for the reason tnat his landlord had refused to wait for de- | linquent rent. The landlord says the keys of the court were dew.vereu to him several days before the attachment was levied. Hard has not been a conspicuous figure on the streets since election. —_——————— Forsakes Politics for Pleasure. ALAMEDA, Nov. 25.—The Bay-street Independent Club, which proved to be the political enigma of the late campaign in this city, has forsaken politics to par- ticipate in social functions.

For the present the club retires from tho task of shaping the pol- as resolved itself into a social organization.

Fletter, one of the best known citizens of this city, dropped dead this morning at the home of his son, City Trustee Fletter, 2295 Central avenue. Although a man past | 70 years of age, Mr. Fletter had enjoyed | the best of health up to the moment of his sudden death. As was his custom, he left | the home of his son about 8:30 o'clock this | morning and walked along Park street, | c greeting his friends. To some young men with whom he was acquainted he joked on the proposition that he at his advanced | age was enjoying better health than they. He returned to his home at 9 o'clock and partook of breakfast. After the meal he went into the basement of his son's house | to examine the heaters. Five minutes | later he was found by his daughter-in-law | lying prostrate at the head of the base- ment _stairway. Physicians were sum- moned immediately, but when they ar- rived Mr. Fletter was dead. The autopsy | showed that death was due to apoplexy. | Deceased was born at Manstield, Ohio. | He came to California fifteen years ago, and has resided in Alameda since 1885. He was a Mason of high standing, and his funeral will be under the auspices of that order. ‘“‘His motto was, ‘Sufficlent unto the day is the evil thereof,’” sald City Trustee Fletter to-day. ‘‘He had never been ill a day in his life.” Deceased was a widower. He leaves three children, F.| J. Fletter of this city, Mrs. Ida Saunders | of Sacramento, and Mrs. Celia Hovey of Kansas City. Narrowly Escaped Drowning. ALAMEDA, Nov. 25.—Harry Perkins and Will Shreve were nearly drowned yes- terday while hunting in a small canoe | in the bay off the foot of Fourth street. | The bay was very rough and the canoe | capsized. Both men managed to swim to | the upturned boat, but on account of the | heavy swell it was with the greatest | difficulty and exertion that they managed | to cling to the craft. The north wind | was carrying them rapidly away from | shore when their predicament was dis- | covered by George Masters. He went to their assistance in a boat and arrived just i time. Both Perkins and Shreve were exhausted. One of them had let go his | hold on the boat and was sinking beneath | the waves when Masters grabbed him. Alameda News Notes.

THE STOCK MARKET. The feeling in mining stocks was firm and some did rather better. The Seg. Belcher assessment falls delinquent in board to-day. The tone of the local securities was rather weaker and several of the favorites showed lower prices, as will be seen by the list of sales. The Pacific Lighting Company has declared a regular monthly dividend of 40 cents per share, payable December 5. The anaual meeting of the Mutual Electrlo Light Company has ‘been called for December The Pacific Mall Steamship Company has fn- creased its dividend from 1 per cent to 1% per cent, payable December 1. The Gold Coin Mining Company of Victor, Colo., paid a dividend of 1 cent per share, amounting to $10.000, vesterday. The Modoc Gold Mining Company of Colorado has decared a_dividend of 1 cent per share, amounting to $10,000, payable December 24. At the annual meeting of the Giant Powder Company on the 230 the old Loard wasyre- elected, including Thomas Pheby and Chatles C. Bemis, who were chosen to fill vacancies a short time ago. It now conslsts of the follow- ing: L. F. Monteagle, president; E. B. Pond, vice president; L. P. Drexler, R.' D. Chandler, Charf>s C. Bemis, Thomas Pheby and Edwin Goodall. The Welsbach Commercial Company has de- clared a_quarterly dividend of S1 per share, payable December 10. This is a reduction of one-half or from § to 4 per cent per annum on the former rate of dividends. The com- pany owes no money other than current ac- count and has net cash assets of over $500,000. Reduction in prices has cut down profits, hence the decrease in the dividends. STOCK AND BOND EXCHANGE. Nov. 23-10:30 a. m. WEDNESDAY, Bld. Ask. S. Bonds— — 113% San Fran . 1%1117% Stockton Gas.
