Defense Still Hopes to Prove by Ex- pert Testimony That the Girl Was Not Mur- dered. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %08 Broadway, Feb. 7. The trial of Willlam A. Brandes, charged with having beaten to death his 13-year-old daughter, Lillian, on Novem- ber 19, 1898, was begun in Judge Hall's court this morning and the entire day was occupied in selecting five jurors. The trial of Mrs. Etta Brandes on the same charge was continued one week. Attorney Sawyer, on behalf of the de- fense, attempted to force a stay of pro- panel on the ground that it was irregu- |larly drawn for the following reasons: That the court in January, 1898, desig- nated 450 men to serve as jurors for the | The law stated that the selection from this number must be made | i the Board of Supervisors immediately his was not done until March.

Murdoff Was Talking to Mrs. Jones and Her Husband Be- came Suspicious. Oakland Office San Francisco Call 908 Broadway, Feb. 7. A shooting scrape was very narrowly averted at the Juanita House Pablo avenue this afternoon, and as a sequel Thomas Jones, an ironmolder, is the occupant of a cell at the City Prison, charged with an attempt to murder A. F. Murdoff. Both men have been stopping at the Juanita for some time past, and, from all | accounts, Murdoff was in the dining-room | this afternoon, engaged in a friendly con- versation with Mrs. Jones, when her hus- | band entered. Enraged over finding his wife and Mur- doff talking, Jones ordered his spouse to leave the room. He then reached to his hip gocke{ and whipped out a six-shooter. In the encounter that ensued he was pre- vented from using the weapon with effect, | and it was finally secured by a third per- | | son. Sergeant Peterson was summoned, and placed Jones under arrest. Murdoff pro- | tests that he was doing mnothin, that might have aroused Jones’ Jealousy. —He says he was simply talking with Mrs. Jones upon a matter of business regarding a mine in which he is interested. He in- sists that there was no cause for Jones' alleged attempt to murder him. Jones' bail was fixed by Smith at $2500 cash or $5000 bonds. Jones, when seen at the City Prison, was very reticent. He sald he did nof care to make any statement for publica- tion, but admitted that he had had trouble with Murdoff heretofore. He was formerly interested in the Oakland Iron Works, and_is well advanced in years. He intimated that he must have been out | of his mind when he pulled his revolver.

M MeKenny and 8 Ch Watson - 2mer H- Mr. Woodward appears to have had no difficulty in obtaining many prominent residents of the Fifth Ward to sign. his petition, and among them are many of the mililonaires of the Lake Merritt Im- brovement Club, who highly approved of Woodward’s stand regarding the Lake, but who say nothing in an endorsement published some weeks ago of hie record as an expert on water rates, The names are as follows: H.

The campaign in the Fifth Ward is one of extraordinary Interest. This ward is referred to as the “kid glove” ward, the aristocratic ward, among politicians, and contains less of the working class than any other ward in the city. Mr. Wood- ward has evidently presumed on this con- dition, and has induced himself to b come a candidate for the Council. Ths condition was emphasized strongly last night at the Populist convention, There was not a single delegate from the Fifth Ward on the floor, and the chairman an- nounced that there were evidently no Populists in that high-toned district, here can be no doubt, however, that the next Councilman from the Fifth Ward will be Felton Taylor, who has been nomi- | nated by the Republicans, the Municipal League and the Independents. The Fifth Ward is_expecting much sub- stantial aid from the city at large for the carrying out of certain improvements around Lake Merritt, and it certainly can- not dare to offer such an affront to the remaining six wards as to_elect a Coun- ciiman who behaved as Woodward did last spring. Whatever Woodward's faults may be, his judgment is certainly not of the kind that makes faithful Councilmen. The Independent Republicans are plan- ning for a very busy campaign. They will }ml§ meetings in every ward as well as in the annexed district, and ex-Mayor Da- vie has declared his intention of being as aggressive as he was four years ago. 'o-morrow evening the Republican City Central Committee will meet to consider the work of the campaign, which will robably be started by a big mass meet- ng some time next week in the heart of the city. The executive committee of the Munici- al League met to-night and indorsed george R. Stetson, the Republican nomi- nee for Councilman at large, to fill the vacancy created on the league ticket by the resignation of C. A. Chichester. MISS McCOMB INSANE. Became Violent at Her Home and Hurled Dishes at a Visitor. OAKLAND, Feb. 7.—Miss Lizzie Mc- Comb, a daughter of the late General Mc- Comb, was brought to the Recelving Hos- pital this afternoon from her home in Berkeley, and will be examined for insan- ity to-morrow morning by Drs.
