OAKLAND, Sept. 5.—Desmond Smith, the telephone company employe who shot Joseph A. Freitas, was arraigned in the Police Court to-day on a charge of as- sault with intent to murder. The prelim- , indry examination was set for September 12. Smith, who has been twice assaulted since the linemen’s strike began, claims to have shot because he believed Freitas and a companion intended to attack him. following % z § % % g & prosecution and the defendants were rep- resented by Attorneys Eddy and Coghlan. Martin Kelly was an interested spectator. Dr. Charles J. Schmelz, the physician who attended Sample, described the na- ture of his wounds. One of the bullets had fractured the neck; there was a wound on the top of the head, inflicted with a blunt instrument, perhaps a heavy shoe; the right eye was contused and cut and the forehead contused and abrased | by blows from brass knuckles or some other instrument. Dr. 8. J. Fraser, con- sulting physiclan, corroborated the evi- dence of Dr. Schmelz. | FIGHT WITH DULLIGHAN. | Thomas F. Dullighan, boller-maker, tes- tified to having a fight with the defend- ants outside Hugh O'Connor's grocery at First and Folsom streets. Sample came up to them and separated them, telling the defendants to go home. The defend- | ants called Sample a foul name and walked along toward Second street. | sample remarked that he should have iused his club on them and walked after them. That was the last he saw of Sam- ple and the defendants. Joseph M. Sulli- van, a brassmolder, corroborated Dullig- han. Joseph P, Conley, a longshoreman, who was knocked down either by Sullivan or Powell, testified that he was too drunk at the time to remember anything about it. Hugh O’Connor, the grocer, gave un- important testimony. C. R. Franklin, a clerk, living at 525 Folsom street, was the most important witness. He sald he was standing on the steps of his house and diagonally oppo- site he heard some one telling another that he couldn’t fight him. This was fol- lowed by a scuffling noise and a sound as {f a head had been hit with a club. SHOOTING OF OFFICER. Immediately thereafter two shots were fired in quick succession. Two men ran in the direction of Second street. Frank- lin crossed the street and saw Sample lying on the sidewalk with his face cover- | ed with blood. Sample asked Franklin | to raise him up. Franklin did so, but had | to place him on his back again, as his mouth and nose became choked with blood. Policemen Nobmann and Clark then came up with the two defendants and Sample was carried to an electric car. Franklin picked up Sample's whistle and keys from the sidewalk and saw his club lying against the fence. No one passed along between First and Second streets between the time of the shooting and the arrival of the officers with the two defendants. At this stage the case was continued till next Friday morning. —_—————— Music at the Park.

Hickey will be elected to wield the gavel at the Democratic convention. Gavin Me- Nab'’s control of the forces in the Demo- cratic camp will be almost absolute when the time arrives for calling the roll of delegates. Franklin K. Lane is slated as the nominee of the Democratic convention for Mayor. He has not publicly an- nounced that he will accept the leadership of his party in the local campaign, but his closest supporters affirm that he will not decline th: honor. It transpires that the haste of the Union Labor convention in disposing of the nom- ination for Mayor was made as a stroke of political strategy. In the labor parade Mayor Schmitz will figure in the proces- slon as the only nominee. At the recent primary election the Re- publican party cast more votes than were cast by both the Democratic and Union Labor partles. This actual demonstration of voting strength is accepted as a pretty sure sign that the Republican ticket will come out ahead in the November election. All that the Republican voters ask for is a good ticket. The delegates-elect are free and unpledged. There is no indica- tion of any scheme to programme delega- tions tor Mayor. On the contrary, it ap- pears that the contest for the high honor of leading the party in the campaign will be fought out openly and squarely on the floor of the convention. Henry H. Lynch is an active and in- fluential aspirant for a place on the tick- et as the nominee for Sheriff. He is sup- ported by a legion of friends. It is re- marked in his favor that he has always been true and energetic in support of the party and that the time has arrived for a just recognition of his services. A spirited contest for the District At- torneyship is in progress, with General Edward S. Salomon and former State Senator Frank McGowan well to the front in the favor of the convention. The United Republican League is de- sirous that every citizen who is entitled to vote shall be registered. Big registra- tion is accepted as a harbinger of Re- publican success. Registration for the municipal election closes September 23. Cards bearing the following information have been issued by the league: n stered for the gubernato- i e o exaber, 1003, or for the pri- mary eiection in Avsust, 1903, or if you have changed your residcnce since your last regis- tration, you must reregister now in order to vo(':iu‘z‘exgew?nm“?fu have resided in this city one year on November 3 are entitled to regis- O wenty-onesters, who will become of age on or before November 3 are entitled to register now.

The Fortieth Assembly District Demo- cratic deiegation organized last night at Oakwood Hall, 1805 Devisadero street, by the electicn of William Ross to the office of chairman.

One woman was burned to death and twelve persons were injured. All the inhabitants are homeless, brated in the State. Last year all the labor unions paraded in one body, but on this occasion the Labor Council and the Building Trades Council will have two distinct processions. The Labor Council will start from East and Market streets and marching up Market street will swing into Van Ness avenue. On arriving at Eddy street the procession will counter march and dis- band at Eighth and Market streets. The Building Trades Council will form on Van Ness avenue and march down Market street to the ferry. Arriving at this point it wil! dishand and take the ferry for Shel! Mound, where exercises will be | beld. | The literary exercises at the Chutes on behalf of the Labor Council will com- mence at 4 o'clock, immediately after the theatrical performance. President G. B. Benham of the Labor Council will deliver the opening address, his subject being. “The Future of Trade Unionism.” He will be followed by Andrew Furuseth, secretary of the Sailors’ Union of the Pacific. Among other attractions at the Chutes will be dancing, which will com- mence at 2:30 o'clock and continue in the evening. In the Labor Council parade there will be 140 unions represented. The procession will start promptly at 9:30 o'clock and all those who will participate In the parade are instructed to report at their proper station at 9 2. m. There will be plenty | of martial music in both processions, as every union band in the city will be em- ployed in the parades. —_— Clan Fraser’s Picnic. Arrangements have been completed for | Clan Fraser's picnic and games, to be held at Schuetzen Park on Admission day. The programme of sports will consist of thir- ty-five events, including races for men, women and children, one-mile walking match, football, highland dancing, bag- pipe competition and tug-of-war between teams from the Caledonian Club, Thistle | Club, Clan Macdonald of Oakland and Clan Fraser. SR I s St. Joseph’s Parish Pienic. St. Joseph's parish will celebrate Labor day at Schuetzen Park. Preparations for this annual parish reunion have been | 1 fesses to be an “Original notice to defend. ant,” which s not known in the legal business of the Justices’ Court. At a cas- ual glance the paper seems to have been issued from the Justices’ Court, but Judge Van Nostrand declares that it emanates from the offices of Ross & Thompson, who are the attorneys for the National Law and Collection Company. The specific instance callea to the at- tention of Judge Van Nostrand was the serving of one of the papers on W. A. Nevills, owner of the Rawhide mining property. The paper was numbered 1349 and recited that suit had been brought by the National Law and Collection Com- pany against W. A. Nevills for the re- covery of $20 alleged to be due as a sube scription to an Eastern periodical. The document was not issued by any Justice of the Peace mor by the Clerk of the Justices’ Court, Van Nostrand says. “The use of these imitation papers,™ sald Judge Van Nostrand, “appears to me to be for the purpose of forcing people to pay an alleged debt with the alterna- | tive of defendink a suit to recover the amount. I understand that Ross, whose name appears signed to the document served on Nevills, threatens to have the Sheriff levy on property owned by the debtor unless he pays up. The paper is a clever imitation of a “Summons and complaint.” which is the regular docu- ment issued by the Clerk of the Court and no doubt intimidates people who are ignorant of the legal procedure in such cases. I propose to bring the matter to the attention of the Justices of the Peace with a view of putting a stop to what T consider a fraudulent method of com- pelling people to settle with alleged credi- tors.” @ i @ made for months and all who attend are assured a good time by the committee in { charge of the outing. Numerous gate and game prizes have been procured and many interesting events are promised. ——— Appraise Ebbett’s Estate. The estate of Arthur M. Ebbetts was appraised yesterday at $64,970.
