With that, to the surprise of the attorneys for the defense, the prosecution dismissed the de- fense's chief expert witness, whose sur- prise was perhaps greater than that of | any one in the courtroam. 1t was during the dfrect examination of the next witness, Dr. G. L. Eaton, whose testimony was for the most part also along the line of the theory of suicide by | hanging, that Dr. H. S. Buteau, chief ex- pert and autopsy physician for the prose- cution, stepped into the courtroom. He was handed the skull cap of the dead girl. It was the first time he had seen it since the autopsy. When Attorney Ben- nett Jast week ed Dr. Buteau on the stand why he had not preserved the skull and membranes, being aware that the life of a man depended upon it, the surgeon and expert answered: “T aid what I considered was much safer. I summoned half a dozen reputable physicians of Berkeley to witness the autopsy, and they can tell what they but I should have preserved it had B S R N R B R I S saw; 1 known that it would have fallen into disreputable hands afterward.”” While Dr. Eaton was testifying Dr. skulleap ‘and ex Buteau fumbled the de a discovery amined it closely, and m that will result n his being recalled by the prosecution. That discovery —con- Listed ot the important fact that the | Plood spots on the skull cannot be re- | moved. ‘ Dr. Buteau, accompanied by Deputy | District Attorney Melvin, unnoticed by | the:attorneys for the defense, took the | £kull to an anteroom and made a desper- | ate effort to remove the blood with water, | but this could not be accomplished with- out destroying and also removing the tis- Sue, clearly proving in Dr. Buteau's opinton the fact of the blood stains being ante-mortem. Tr;‘ tdhis Dr. Buteau will stify when recalled. ‘sznqtg pelieved now that the introduction of the skull, though objected to by the rosecution, will prove of material value Py eecuring the conviction of Brandes. MRS. R. W. SNOW GOES TO HER FINAL REST| Wife of the Auditor and Republican | Candidate for Mayor Passes | Away in Ojai Valley. OAKLAND, March 1.—Mrs. R, W. Snow, wife of the City Auditor, died last night at the residence of relatives in Southern California. Mr. Snow and daughter left | Oakland on Monday night, in response to an urgent summons, and arrived in Ojal Valley just a few hours before her death. | Mrs. Snow had been in failing health for some time, but although it was known that her sickness might terminate fatally, the end was not expected for some weeks. The life of the deceased in this city had been one of activity, benevolence and usefulness; but her sphere was that of a noble woman who preferred to work in the home and away from the eyes of the world rather than seek notoriety and pub- lic approval. For many years Mrs. Snow was the secretary of the Ladies' Ald So- clety of the First Congregational Church, and her duties, conscientiously performed, | . were productive of much that will be re- membered for years. Although a sufferer for two years, only two months ago did Mrs. Snow leave for the south, even then not thinking that she was bldding Oakland farewell forever.

PROTECTING THE CITY’S TITLE SENATOR LEAVITT SAYS IT IS ALL RIGHT. The City Council Is Not Satisfled That the Creation of a Harbor Commission Will Be a Benefit. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, March 1 The bill now before the Legislature providing for the creation of a commis- sion to manage Oakland harbor has cre- ated much unrest among the attorneys who are watching the important water front case now In the courts. They do | not feel assured that the bill is for the | best interests of the city and declare that they see in it a possibility of hurt- |ing the city’s case. Some weeks ago ‘lhese attorn supplied an opinion to | the City Council in which they set forth | that the result of such a bill as s pro- | posed might have the effect of casting a | cloud on the city title, and to that ex- | tent hurt its cause. The City Council and other bodies de- clared against the passage of the bill and resolutions to this effect were sent to the Alameda County legislators asking them | to have the bill amended In certain par- ticulars. A reply was recelved from Sen- ator Leavitt, the author of the bill, tell- ing the Council that It did not under- stand the situation and that there is no necessity for alarm. Attorney Dow, in conjunction with W. Lair HIll and H. | A. Powell, has prepared a short amend- | ment to the bill and to-night some of | these attorneys left for Sacramento to | _Cit William R. Davis, | the Legislature. rinted statement setting forth their ob- fectlona to the original inl and showing Why it should be amended. The amendment is as follows: “Nothing contained in this act shall be construed to impair any title which the city of Oakland gms or may have to said water front, or any part thereof; nor to ‘affect the rights or standing of said city in or connected with any litigation now or hereafter pending in which the title to or control of sald water front is or may be involved.” City Attorney Dow said this afternoon that the proposed amendment is neces- sary and should be passed to preserve to this city all that she has fought for and expended so much to gain. r. Dow is prepared to show the alleged weakness of the original bill and has little doubt that he will be able in conjunction with the other attorneys to secure the passage of the amendment, ENDANGERED THE LIVES OF LINEMEN Alameda Office San Francisco Call. 1428 Park street, March 1. Alameda’s political contest promised to be a campaign of placards until the candl- dates were threatened with arrest for pasting - their pictures and tacking their announcements on every avaliable space in town. Probably no objection would have been made had not the candidates swooped down on the electric light masts and com- pletely covered them with cards with glowing announcements. A lineman who attempted to climb one of the poles and nearly broke his neck caused the trouble. His steel spurs struck several tacks that refused to yleld, and the lineman came down the pole like the time ball on the ferry depot building. Fortunately he was not injured, and he went to City Clerk Lamborn and threat- ened to sue the city for damages to his nervous system if it allowed the office seekers to stick full*of tacks the poles he had to climb. No arrests have yet been made, but the City Clerk stated to-day that he had no- tified the police department of the law against placarding the town, and expected the officers woulfi enforce the provisions of the ordinance. “Unquestionably if a lineman got hurt while climbing those poles by reason of their being filled with tacks, in violation | of an ordinance that had not been prop- erly enforced, the city could be held for damages,” sald Mr. Lamborn. ‘““The city has one damage suit on its hands now— thg Devoust case—and we do not want an- other.” Some of the candidates have torn down their announcements, and in every in- stance they have been very careful to re- move the tacks. —_— A RIOTER LAID LOW. OAKLAND, March 1.—There was a se- rious but short lived riot to-night, caused by a gang of young fellows who were in- tent upon breaking up an open air con- cert given by patent medicine seller: Fred Haanstra may die of Injurles r ceived from the driver of thc “doctors’ ™ with | argue in favor of the amendment before | wagon, who, it is alleged, struck him on They have prepared a | the head with a pistol or a whip handle.

California Commandery of the Loyal Legion entertained General Shafter last evening at the Occidental Hotel in a royal manner. Colonel J. C. Currier, commander of the legion, presided. At his table were seated General Shafter, Commo- dore Watson of Mare Island, Captain Terry of the Towa, Captain Plummer, U. 8. A.; Captain Cotton, U. S. N.; Colonel Fuiler, U. S. A.; Horace Da- vis; Chaplain McKittrick, U. 8. A., and Major Noble, U. 8. A. General Shafter, in response to Col- onel Currier’s opening remarks, brief- ly spoke of the work of the Fifth Army Corps at Santiago. He dwelt especially upon the conquest of that Spanish stronghold with such small loss, considering the difficulties to be overcome in the campaign. Something like 17,000 men landed on that hostile coast, with only the loss of two men, who were drowned by falling over- board from the boats. He instanced the !nvaslon of the West Indles by the English and French in the past, when thousands of lives were sacrificed be- fdre a foothold was gained. In the battles that took place be- tween the American troops and the Ojal Valley, and the remains will' be in- .terred in the family plat, where withia dled. General Shafter spoke of the hearty co-operation of the naval forces and paid a glowing tribute to the commanders of the vessels whose guns swept the shores, clearing the way for the advancing columns of soldiers. It was a glorious victory, he said, where a province was won without the loss of a gun, a prisoner or a color. At the close of the general's speech the legion sang “When Shafter -Comes Marching Home."” In reply to a toast to the navy, Commodore Watson responded by a tribute to the gallant Dewey, the men- tion of whose name lifted the members of the Loyal Legion to their feet with loud cheers for the hero of Manila. Horace Davis spoke for the Sons of the Revolution, and ended his eloquent remarks by stating that the patriotic civilian preached war while the sol- dier and sallor practiced with tneir guns. Captain Terry of the Iowa responded for his vessel, and stated that he was not permitted to command the Iowa during her exploits at Santiago. There were not enough ships to go around, consequently some of the navy men had to stay at home. At the close of Captain Terry's remarks the company Spanish forces only 250 men were sang feelingly, “Remember the Coulson, Civil Engineer L. J. Allen, killed, and of the 1400 wounded only 13 Maine.” . Major George T. Downey. 354534030 B Re BRI LN R+ B+ B+ IR BRI R RN R BB B+ Lol Among the 250 guests present were Colonel W. R.

For several days the ““doctors” have been giving free concerts and disposing of thelr medicines on a_vacant lot at Ninth and Clay streets. There has been some fric- tion the last few evenings owing to the behavior of some young fellows in the audience, These fellows appeared to take offense at some of the numbers of the programme carried out on the four-horse wagon, and the comedian retorted. Gradvally the {ll- feeling increased and when tne leader of the gang cried “Fight!” they attempted to drive the so-called doctors out of the wagon. _Several pistols were produced and used as clubs, but no shots were fired. The driver beat the gang off the wagon, and it was in this way that Haanstra was injured. The chairs in the wagon were thrown out, causing great excitement and some bruises, and the riot was only quelled when the driver lashed up the four horses and dashed to the City Hall. There was great excitement for a time and it is surprising that more people hurt. ~Haanstra is in a semi-stupor at the bospital, and it is feared he has been se- riously injured. Shortly before midnight five of the lead- ers of the riot—Frank Young, Antone Hi- guera. Charles Buker, James McCloskey and John Doherty—were ~ arrested and locked up at the City Prison on charges of violating the curfew ordinance and dis- turbing the peace. The lads range In age from 11 to 18 years. Harry Rogers, the driver of the wagon, was also ar- rested and will be detained awaiting the developments in Haanstra’s condition. Rogers is 52 years old. There were about fifty boys implicated in the riot. s Muenter-Steltzner Wedding.
