That on or about the said 10th day of August, 1601, said Daniels | said to this affant at the office of said En- | quirer Publishing Company, situated on Tenth street, between Broadway and Franklin, of the city of Oakland, in substance and‘effect: ‘‘For | affiant to see immediately Henry P.

That immediately there- | upon this affiant proceeded to the Courthouse | | N the county and to the office of said Dalton at said Court- house, and upon arriving there found said Dal- ton and said Oakes at the office of said Dal- ton. That the said Dalton then and there re- quested this affiant to make out two certain | bills against the co: of Alameda and in | fevor of George A. Oakes. That the said bills | were then and there drawn by the afflant in | accordance with and from data furnished to | affiant by said Daiton, and which said bills were thereafter flled and are now on file with the clerk of the Board of ervisors and County Clerk of Alameda County and Auditor, and are numbered and known respectively as Nos. 7251 and G That upon said bills be- o . ing drawn the said Daiton and Oakes said in effect wanted to have these bills discounted, and that sa!d that they the bills discounted, but that he had refused and wanted affiant o get Lanktree to discount them. That thereupon affiant and said Oakes pro- ceeded to the office of said Lanktrce and after considerable discussion of the matter with said | Lanktree the said Lanktree finally agreed to discount the said bills, and thereupon said Oskes assigned said claims to Lanktree and the sald Oakes then left, and this affiant wait- ed and the said Lanktree did then and there Qeliver to this affiant his personal check drawn | in favor of said George Oakes for the sum of gix hundred dollars, in payment of two said bills; that affiant thereupon took the check to said Dalton’s office and then and there deliv- red the same to said Dalton. That within a Week subsequent to said 19th day of August, 1901, said Lanktree did deliver to me a check drawn by sald Lanktree in favor of said George Oakes for the sum of $300, said sum being fhe balance due on sald bills, less $75 discount, and thereupon I immediately did deliver the $aid check to €ald G. B. Daniels. That these Copies hereunto annexed and marked exhibits “A” and “B" are now on flle in the Auditor's office of the county of Alameda and said coples Were made by me. That within one month last past I have seen in the possession of said Tanktree the said check for $600 above de- | scribed, and the same had indorsed upon It as | the final payer the name of G. B. Daniels, and wss aiso indorsed by said Oakes. That 1 also saw at said time last referred to said | check for §900 drawn by sald Lanktree to the order of said Oakes and indorsed by said G.

CHARGES IRREGULARITY. Affiant further says that he knows of h own knowledge that “the seventy-five assess- ment rolls” ‘‘working,” described in said bill numbered €582 were never made or delivered by said Oakes or by anyone to said county of Ala- | meda or to said Assessor or to any one for said county or sald Assessor, and that for more | than fifteen months last past no such books | have been used or kept by said Assessor or by | said_county. | Affiant further states that both of said claims | have been allowed and have been fully pald | by the county of Alameda and that the said money has been illegally, unlawfully and cor- ruptly obteined from said county. That the aid Oakes, Daniels and Dalton are close and intimate associates and affiant verily believes that the said three persons unlawfully, wickedly and corruptly conspired together for the purpose to and did defraud said county of Alameda out of the amount of said bills, to-wit, 1575.

The commencement exercises of St. Jo- sepn's Boys' School, which were held last night In Verein Eintracht Hall, 237 Twelfth street, were attended by a crowd | that taxed the hall to its greatest | capacity. Probably not during the pres- ent commencement season have gradua- tion exercises been more enjoyable than those of St. Joseph's School. Graduation honors were conferred on Stephen Roche, and Charles O’Connor. One of the fea- tures of the programme was the gun drill by eighteen little boys, dressed in sol- dier uniforms. The drill' was rendered ex- ceedingly picturesque by the presision and correctness with which the littlg soldiers exectued the martial maneuvers. Many priests witnessed the exercises. Medals for Christlan doctrine were awarded to Joseph Christian, Thomas King, Arthur Glvanovich, Henry Gantner, Ignatius McCarthy, J. Canty, Patrick Gil- lesple and Bugene Linehan, while remiums were presented to Charles imith, J. McInerny, Peter Weber, J. Gil- bide, Lester Flaker, Frank Sullivan, M.

Doyle, a well-known buflder and contractor and one of the oldest res- idents of the Mission, died in St. Mary's Hospital yesterday morning, after a long and painful lllness. The funeral will take place at 19 o'clock Thursday morning, ircm St. Peter’s Church, on Alabama stieet, near Twenty-fourth, where a soi- emn requiem high mass will be celebrated for the repose ot his soul. Interment will be in Holy Cross Cemetery. ¢ Doyle was born in County Wexford, Ireland, seventy-six years ago, and came to this county while quite young. Whea tie news of the discovery of goid in Cai- itornia reached the kast, Doyle, with hundreds of others,” set out for the new Eldorado. He was a man of keea bugin instinet and soon came to the conciusion after arriving here that his trace, that of a carpenter, offered a surer if a siower road to fortune than mining. He accoraingly engaged in the contract- !ing and builing business and in a very short tume buiit up a iarge business. Wit bis family, he took up a home in the | Mission, at that time aimost a wildeérness, 2na hecame identified with all of its in- He lived to see that section of grow into a _populous district d in all its progressive movements he took an active interest. He was of a kindly, charitable nature and won for himself a host of friends. In politics he w a Democrat, and although often urged to run for oifice he decluined. He was at all times willing to help his friends poiitically, but for himself he preferred the walks of private life. He was nom- inated for Freeholder by his party a few yeers ago, but declined the henor, al- though a strong effort was made to keep Lim on the ticket. Six children survive him, the Rev. Father Alexander Doyle, & noted Paulist missionary father of New | York city, Sister Mary Fidelis, Lady Su- perior of the convent of Our Lady of Leurdes, Oakland, Sister Mary Louise of St. Mary’s Hospital in this city, and Stephen, Frank and Peter Doyle, also of this city. RUDOLFH AND MULCAHY NOT TO MAKE REMARKS Jake Rudolph, at one time a lieutenant for Chris Buckley, charged with disturb- ing the peace, tried yesterday before Judge ¥ritz. The arrest was made by Policeman Mulcahy on Powell street on the afternoon of May 26, Mulcahy tes d that Rudoiph had been his enemy since he arrested Mrs. Rudolph about six months ago for disturbing tne eace and that every time they met udolph would pass offensive and insult- ing remarks. On the afterncon of the arrest Rudolph, who, according to Mul- cahy was under the influence of Nquor, was particularly offensive. When Mul- cahy placed him under arrest Rudolph attempted to strike him and continued his abuse all the way to the patrol box and while waiting for the patrol wa%on. Mulcahy was corroborated by Dr. C. H. A. Davis, who testified he was surprised at the officer’s endurance under the of- fensive abuse, and also by W. Jennings. For the defense Rudolph testified that Mulcahy first attempted to strike him and called him a “gunfighter.” He denfed that he was under the influence of liquor and called James Welch, George Ryan and William Maxwell to testify to that effect. Judge Fritz continued the case for a week, but warned both Rudoiph and Mul- cahy to stop making remarks to each other when they meet on the street. If Rudolph does so Mulcahy was_instruct- ed to atrest him and if Mul(’ahx is the offender then Rudolph will have his rem- edy before the Police Commissioners. —————————— LIQUOR-DEALERS AND EMPLOYES ORGANIZE A number of liquor-dealers and their employes met Monday afternoon in tha Nevada block and formed an organiza- tion to be known as “The Mutual Alll- ance of California:”” The purpose of the new society is to unite its members n social end fraternal bonds and to securs protection for their business ventures.
