Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %8 Broadway, Dec. i Auditor Snow is tired of seeing a wealthy city continually humiliated by be- ing unable to pay its debts. He is advo- cating the passage by the next Legisla- ture of an act that will obviate the dif- ficulty. The Merchants' Exchange has received the following letter from Auditor Snow: AUDITOR'S OFFICE, CITY HALL, OAK- LAND, Cal., Dec. 6, 1 “ommittes on Leg- | islation Merchants' Exchange—Gentlemen: I suggest that you urge the passage of a law that | will enable the city of Oakland to pay its bills when due.

Meanwhile, nearly | every warrant issued for claims against the city is registered “for want of funds” and finds | its way into the hands of broker or merchant. There are hundreds of city employes, espectally in the Street Department, who have pald from six to twenty per cent discount. ! Contractors, when figuring on clty work: make an allowance for the fact that they wil have to discount their warrant, and in this manner the city loses a fer larger sum of money than it would pay by Issuing small bonds for a few months at a low rate of in- terest. I inclose a form that I think may approval of the Leglslature. - Sincerely The draft of the bill submitted to the exchange by Auditor Snow provides tnat cities of the third class can issue fisca vear bonds for the purpose of providing money for paying expenses before the collection of taxes. The bonds shall be of the value of $1000, and bear Interest . 31 per cent, and be payable on the day of redemption. These bonds shall be sold by the Mayor and Treasurer, acting jointly, when ordered by the Coun- cil, but no bonds shall be sold for less than their par value, nor shall any be sold at any time in excess of the amounts actually due.

FOUND DEAD ON THE 1 FIRST STREET TRACK FLAGMAN BLETHEN MAY HAVE COMMITTED SUICIDE. | While Laig Off Because of Sickness | an Aged Man Meets Death ‘ TUnder Mysterious Cir- ! cumstances. Oakland Office Ban Francisco Call, | 98 Broadway, Dec. 7. | Charles A. Blethen, an aged flagman and brother of Bx-Mayor Blethen, was struck | by the Alameda local on First street,| between Washington and- Broadway, | about 6:15 o'clock to-night, and died at the Recefving Hospital just an hour and" three-quarters later. So far as could be learned there were no eye witnesses, and the first intima- | tion of the affair was the finding of the | body lying near the track, after the train had pulled out for Alameda. | The manner in which he was killed sug- gests that his death was not accidental. The suicide theory has been advanced and finds most believers. Blethen had been an at Seventh and Franklin streets '!]:rgx:mn_\' years. Of late his health had | been failing and about a week ago he se- | cured a leave of absence for a few weeks. During the past few days he appeared to be particularly discouraged and 80 ex- | pressed himself to people about the Over- land House, where he had been rooming | for the past twenty-five years. He was an inveterate dealer in stocks and so far as known had not been very successful. | At about 3 o’clock this afternoon Blethen was_seen loitering about on First street | at the Broadway crossing. At that time | he seemed very despondent and it is sup- | posed that he deliberately threw himself under the train, after it had fairly started. | The theory that Blethen might have fallen off the train, after realizing that he | had passed his station is exploded by the fact as given by Conductor Robert Owens,i who says that the gates on the south side of his train were closed when he | pulled out, and passengers arriving at | Broadway always alight from the north | zide of the train. Blethen demonstrated | constitution and vimmi', for when he ar- rived at the Receiving Hospital his injury was immediately pronounced as fatal by | Dr. Stratton. There was a_ compound | raminuted fracture of the skull, expos- | ing the brain over a circular area of | about three and one-half inches i di- ' ameter; the brain was lacerated; the left | a remarkable | eye was torn from its socket, and his | collar bone was broken. Yet he iived until % o'clock. Deceased was a native of | Maine, aged 69 years. 1 Farce by High School Studentas, ALAMEDA, Dec. 7.—The class of De- cémber, '8, Alameda High School, will produce an _original farce to-morrow hight ut Armory Hall.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Dec. 7. Did Mrs. Anna Mentel induce her young husband to come to Alameda, knowing that in the event of the worst happening she would be more leniently dealt with on this side of the bay than elsewhere? Lawyers and those whose business takes them around the courts are freely dis- cussing the circumstances surrounding and leading up to the murder of William F. Mentel a week ago. The story pub- lished in The Call to-day from Dr. Con- nor of San Francisco has caused many to think that it was not accidental that the murder occurred in Alameda. Dr. Con- nor says that a week after the marriage Anna Mentel paced up and down in front of his office till nearly midnight while her husband was secreted inside, knowing her to be on the lookout for him with a load- stol, which she had threatened to se. Now that these facts are gradually being brought to light they dispel some- what the halo built around the murderes her parents, who declare that thelr | daughter never out after dark un-| in thelr company.

Mrs. Shrader thought her husband was acting strangely and made an investigation. When she found the bath room door locked and got no response from within she called the neighbors to her assist- ance and sent for Officer Lawrence, The policeman broke in the door and found Shrader covered with blood, standing in the middle of the room, brandishing the razor and threatening to carve the first man who approached him. Lawrence succeeded in overpowering him, although he fought like a demon. The opinion is expressed that if Clara tel would now be alive. There is some | ground for this opinion. Within the past | Vear Mrs. Gregory shot a man in her Ala- | meda home and was acquitted.
