Oakland Office San Franeisco Calk 1118 Broadway, May 26, There is a battle impending between the Cooks’ and Waiters’ Alllance No. 31 and | the employing restaurateurs and hotel men of Oakland. The Alliance, which pumbers in its membership all of the cooks and waiters employed in this city, has submitted to the employers a demand carrying an agreement for a new sched« ule of wages, hours and conditions of em~ pioyment. The employers have been given until June 3 to make answer to the demands of the union. The ultimatum on the part of the cooks and waiters is a strike un- less the schedule or the main features of it shall be accepted. The employers, through their president, R. W. Merrick, have called a meeting of their associa- tion for to-morrow afterncon at whicar the union’s schedule will be discussed d a decision will probably be reached whether the demands will be accepted. The union has, in the first place, fixed a new schedule of wages, as follows: Cooks—Chief cooks, per week, $14; second cocks, per week, $12; night cooks, per wees, $12; kitchen subs, seven days, $8; kitchen subs, six days, $7; overtime, 25 cents an bour. The principal change over the present rate is an increase of §2 a week in night cocks’ pay. Under tne head of “extra cooks” a new rate is established as follows: Chief_cooks, $3 50 for the first day and $3 for each additional day; second cooks, $3 for the first day and $2 50 for each additional day, night cooks, $3 for the first day and $2 00 for each additional day; kitchen substitute, 31 5U for the first day and $1 25 for each additional day. SWING MAN’S WAGES. Another new clause is as follows: Where a man fills a position of cook and waiter (this man to be known as the swing man) he shall receive $11 per week. Extra waiters are scheduled to receive §25¢ for the first day and 32 for eaca adgitional day. Further the union demands that the “off day” man who shall work the sev- enth day shall receive time and a half for that day. The schedule now in force provides for a six-day week of employ- ment. The agreement also presents a new set of general rules, some of which are as follows: It is agreed that no Japanese or Chinese will be employed in union houses. Tt 15 agreed by the empioyer that no em- ploye shail suffer a reduction in wages or an increase in hours on account of the adop- ¢ this agreement display of the union house card. The six-day week is maintained and provision is made for reference to a board of arbitration of disputes which might arise over interpretation of the agree- ments and provisions. 3 The agreement as submitted to the em- ployers is signed by George Waller, presi- 2 J N~ | dent, and Perry Conwell, secretary of the o 3 | union.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway. May 26. At the instance of Mayor Barstow, an ordinance was introduced in the City Council to-night by Councilman Bishop to impose an annual license of $1200 on all professional boxing exhibitions and $100 a year on amateur boxinz conducted by bona fide athletic clubs. The ordinance closely restricts the exhibitions to legit- imate organizations; requires that no pro- feseional contests shall be given oftener than once a month; that permits shall first be obtained from the City Council; that contests shall be subject to the con- nd that prin- the day before the event a physician’ certificate that they are in ft physical condition to endure the contest. The ordinance defines an athletic club as follows An athietic club, organization or association within the meaning of this ordinance is or- ganized for the purpose of providing its mem- Lers with opportunities for athletic exercise, havirg & gymnasium for the use of its mem- bers, with instructors and the usual apparatus for gymnastics, and having a genuine mem- bership of not less than 150 members. PURPOSE OF ORDINANCE. The aim of the measure is set forth in the foliowing: The purpose of this ordinance is to permit, under the terms and conditions herein specl- | fied, the giving of boxing or sparring exhibj- tions under the auspices of genuine domestic incorporated athletic clubs, and to prevent the giving or holding of boxing or sparring exhi- | bitions by clubs misnamed ‘‘athletic,” but which have no gymnasium or gymnastic ap- paratus or athletic instructor, and which are organized for the sole purpose of making money for the promoters of profes- sional sparring and boxing exhibitions. As soon as the ordinance was read, Councilman Wixson moved for indefinite postponement, but Bishop, Wallace and Boyer objected. was referred to the Ordinance and Judi- ciary Committee.

On_Boyer's motion it “There are all sorts of rumors around bout this license,” said Fitzgerald, ‘‘and we ought to bring the matter out into the open.” Councilman Cuvelller added: “The | rumors are not creditable to this body, and I would like to have an open hear- ing and dispose of the whole matter. Councilman Courtney moved that the ap- plication be denied, and ‘this carried. MANY CITIZENS PETITION. M. J. Keller presented a petition from 1500 citizens asking for the opening of Weshington street on an angle to San Pablo avenue. Tt was referred to the committee of the whole, which heard speeches from Mr. Keller, George W. Reed, P. J. Van ILoben Sels and W. .G. Henshaw in favor &f the project. The- plan was referred to the citizens' com- mitteeof seven on bond, issue. Auditor A. H. Breed, sustained by City Attorney Johnson; explained concerning certain " criticisms of ~his_official action filed by C. S. MacMullen. The committee killed the matter by indefinite postpone- ment. It was voted to recommend that a chan- nel 200 feet wide be maintained in the north arm of the estuary from First to Eighth streets. This action was taken in response to a request from the United States Engineers' Department, which has under consideration a petition from the Southern Pacific Company to cut the channel to twenty feet. City. Engineer Turner explained that the latter figure was entirely .inadequate to protect the Lake Merritt tide flow. GETS FIRST INSTALLMENT OF HER BIG INHERITANCE Mrs. Dack of Redding Soon to Re- ceive Her Entire Fortune of Nearly Two Millions. REDDING, May 26.—All doubt that Mrs. Eli F. Dack of this city, wife of an ex- policeman, is actually to inherit $1,800,000 from the estate of her grandfather in Germany seems cleared away. Mrs, Dack has received the first payment, which in- dicates that the Berlin court accepts her proofs of identity. Mrs. Dack was shown to be the grand- daughter of Frederick Emrick, a wealthy furrier, said to have been the partner of John Jacob Astor, who died in Berlin twelve years ago. Of his estate $9,000,000 was left to the family of each of his two | sons in the United States, Willlam Em- | rick of Michigan and George Emrick of | Pertland, Or. William Emrick and his children received part of thelr share somc | time ago. George Emrick had four chil- | dren. All are dead except Mrs. Elf Dack of Redding and Mrs. Sarah Sheppard of Portland, but the deceased heirs leave children, who will receive their shares, S0 $9;000,000 is to be divided into five por- tions, the father sharing equally with the children. Mrs. Dack returned a week ago from Portland, where she and her father and sister were met by Willlam Emrick and their attorneys from Michigan. A con- sultation was held. Then Mrs. Dack re- | twrned to Redding and received $1000, the first installment of her fortune. The at- torneys say the entire amount will be pald to her within five months.

RELEASED BY POLICE Charles ¥. Dow, a Pullman car con- ductor running between Oakland and El Paso on the Southern Pacific, was taken into custody at the ferry yesterday by Detective George McMahon, acting un- | der instructions from District Attorney | Byington, on suspicion of being a- biga- | mist. The information against him was | | | given by a woman whom he married at Victoria, B. T., about a year and a half ago. She says that they went to Los Angeles to live, and that there she be- came acquainted with the fact that he had been married three times previously to other women, and she bélieved he had not been legally separated from all of them at the time he married her. The latest acquisition to Dow's matri- monial collection arrived from Los An- geles several days ago and stopped at the Occidental Hotel for a time, but left there and has kept her present address a se- cret. She gave only her telephone num- ber to the District Attorney. She goes under the name of Sadie Moore. Dow admits that he has been marriéd quite extensively, but claims that divorce courts purged him of these entangle- ments. He says he secured one divorce at Sedalia, Mo., and another at Pueblo, Colo. The wife from whom he was paft- ed at Pueblo is at present in San Fran- cisco and was located by Detective Mc- Mahon. She sald she had been di- vorced from him. A telegram was sent to Sedalia late last night, and at a late hour a reply was received confirming Dow's claim that he secured a divorce in that city. Dow was at once released from custody. Dow and his present wife had some dif- ficulty in Los Angeles several months ago and she had him arrested for threat- ening her life. —————— HEARTY SUPPER COSTS AGED MAN HIS LIFE . Putrid fish purchased from a peddler is supposed to have caused the death of Thomas H. Rome, a laborer, 63 years of age, who dled at his home, 42 Albert lane, last Sunday night. Rome was the father | of thirteen children and was incapacitated from work by reason of a physical injury. For this reason his wife was the breac winner and supported the large family by washing .and her husband did the cooking. Friday, afternoon he bought a halibut from a peddler and baked it. All but one of the children refused to partake of it, because they sald it was_tainted, but Rome ate heartily of it, and his wife and child_partook more sparingly. Within a few hours all three were taken ill and exhibited symptoms of poisoning. Dr. So- bey was called and after several hours of exertlons succeeded in placing the mother and child out of danger, but the father succumbed. Deputy Coroner Meehan investigated the case and notified the police, who are searching for the peddier who' sold the sh. B —— Charged With Larceny.

B BAY PIRATES PUT UP A STUBBORN FIGHT Two men were found on the steamship Charles Nelson at the foot of Mission street last night trying to force their way into a woman’'s statéroom. They were supposedly driven away, but in reality they took refuge in a lifeboat, where they were found later by the watchman. When ordered to get off the boat they gave bat- tle and were forced overboard. Theéy were fished out of the water, and on the wharf the fight was renewed. One of them drew a club, which he subse- uently dropped. When picked up it was ound to be a solid tusk of ivory. The man with the club managed to make his escape, but the other man was taken to the Harbor Hospital, where he gave his name as Daniel Griffin and his residence as 468 Seventh street. The men are sup- posed to belong to a gang of water front “pirates.” —_—— Drownéd in Escaping Hagzers. PLATTSBURG, N.
