Shntineivi;tin;ol a Crowd of Angered Men—Many Wire Stringers Arrested. OAKLAND, Sept. 20.—R. S. Shastine, a non-union lineman, was set upon by a crowd of men yesterday and badly beaten. A deep wound was inflicted in his chin, so that he had to have it treated at the Re- ceiving Hospital. The injured man was leaving the Abrahamson building at Thirteenth and Washington streets, where he had been working, when he was set upon by the crowd. A man named Jason Coburn was ar- rested by the police and charged with disturbing the peace. Shastine says Co- burn was not one of those who struck him, so he will not be prosecuted. The non-union lineman, however, has sworn out warrants for the arrest of George and Tenney Sturm, brothers, charging them with assault. John A. Steele, a lineman in the employ of the electric light company, was badly battered up by E. J. Bush, a pon-union lineman, whom he had called a vile name. Steele had Bush arrested on a charge of h‘Wflll.m: Gardiner, Lionel Moreal and Hugh Carpenter, non-union linemen, were arrested on charges of battery and using vulgar language. |SHE HAD A RIGHT TO | DEMAND JURY TRIAL | i Mary Bernard of San Leandro Ac- quitted in Case on Appeal From Justice’s Court. OAKLAND, Sept. 29.—A jury in Judge Eillsworth’'s court acquitted Mrs, Mary Bernard of San lLeandro to-day of a charge of disturbing the peace on appeal to the Superior Court from Justice of the Peace Black's court of that place. When Mrs, Bernard appeared before Black she demanded a jury, which he re- fused to allow her. He heard the evi- dence himself, found her guilty and sen- tenced her to pay a fine of $10. The judg- ment was appealed from on the ground that she had a right to demand a jury trial. Judge Ellsworth decided that she had, and in accordance with this deci- sion she was tried agaln to-day and ac- quitted. ——— Marriage Licenses. OAKLAND, Sept. 29.—The following marriage licenses were issued by the County Clerk to-day: George W. Tantau, aged 29 years, San Francisco, and Annie G.

Wealthy Men Band Together to Found Scientific Institute. e Berkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, Sept. 29. The University of Californfa is about to receive a valuable gift from the citi- zens of San Diego, a marine blological laboratory fully equipped and endowed with sufficient funds to keep a corps of s at work all the time. The determination of the San Diegans to found such an institution is the direct result of the work of Professor W. Ritter, the university zoologist, who spent last summer on San Diego Bay and con- ducted the summer school there, the ex- penses of the enterprise being footed by the people of San Diego. Now comes the demand for a larger and permanent in- stitution from the San Diegans them- selves, who are so interested in scientific research that they are willing to sub- scribe the money for the purpose of founding it. The San Diegans recently formed an organization to be known as the Marine Biological Association. Its purpose is stated to found and endow the San Diego Marine Biological Institution, the objects of whic according to the pre- amble to the by-laws, will consist in “carryin a biological and hydro- 4 urvey of the waters of the adiacent to the coast California, to build and main- tain a public aquarium and museum and to prosec uch other kindred takings as may be deemed wise.” After the institute is founded and suffi- ciently endowed it will be transferred to the University of California, so that it may become a department of the univer- sity, co-ordinate with its already exist- ing ‘denartments Professof Ritter is to be the scientific director of the institute. In explaining the needs of such an institute to the people he said that the southern coast | is rich in marine life and a good field for exploration. He urged the founding of an institute that would prosecute its T arches continuously through laried investigators. like the astronomers, not by individuals who come and go at will and work according to their resources The members of the San Diego associa- | tion are all men of means and they are | expected to subscribe a fund large enough | to bear intere | | | | | | | | t of $10000 a year, which stimated the institute will The officers of the asso- President, Homer H.

T g oo POINT RICHMOND, Sept. 29.—Two hundred citi have signed a petition to be presented to the ¢ ty ntra Costa Coun- Board of Supervisors at Martinez next Monday, asking that Point Richmond be incorporated as a city of the fifth class. The proposition is meeting with much opposition on the part of the larger prop- erty interests. The § Fe Railroad, the Southern Pacific Railioad, the Stand- ard Oil Company and many of the large property holders are decidedly against the incorporation. They will undoubtedly combat the petition. A committee of fifty citizens has been named by the Greater Richmond Improve- ment Club to go to Martinez Monday to present arguments before the board fa- vorable to incorporation. The petition defines the proposed mu- nicipal boundaries as identical with those of the Richmond School District created last spring. This would carry the ecity limits north as far as Point San Pablo and take in the lighthouse on the Nar- rows. In this territory will be included the Standard Oil Company’s refinery, the Belt Line Rallway and a large tract of valuable real estate. The Santa Fe Rall- road and the large tract of water front land recently secured by the Southern Pa- cific Company will also come within the city limits. On the south the limits will extend to the Alameda County line and on the east they will include the Southern Pacific Railroad’s main line. The petition desig- nates that the new city shall be called Richmond. MAN FOUND DEAD WITH CUT OVER EYE Discovered Lying by Railroad Track With No Evidence of Train Having Struck Him. MARTINEZ, Sept. 29.—The dead body of a young man was found lying beside the tracks of the Southern Pacific Rail- road near Pinole this morning. There was a cut over the right eye that looked as though it was made by a knife blade and a scratch on one of the hands, but nothing to indicate that the dead man was struck by a train, ‘The remains were taken to Oakland, but were later claimed by Coroner Curry and removed to the Martinez Morgue. In the clothing of the deceased was found a membership card from the Wait- ers’ Union of Stockton with the name Adams upon it. In the clothing was also $8. The deceased was about 21 years of age. ———— Trustees Hire a Detective. BERKELEY, Sept. 29.—The Town Trus- tees voted $100 last night to pay for the gervices of a detective, who will be com- missioned to ferret out the parties who have lately been cutting wires and com- mitting burglaries. The local police has been unable to discover the miscreants and the people complain of an entire lack of police protection. ——— Estimates on Tax Revenue. OAKLAND, Sept. 29.—City Treasurer Taylor estimates that the $126 tax levy rate adopted by the City Council will yield $635,39430 in taxes for the current fiscal year. under- | Srtneh 4 TINY RING BEARERS CARRY CIRCLE OF GOLD TO ALTAR Unusually Pretty Ceremonies Make Happier the Wedding of Miss Bertha Bouterious and Clarence H.

Frank Stoddard, Who Talked Suicide at Wedding, Only No. 2. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Sept. According to a statement made to Jus- tice of the Peace Geary by a sister of Frank Stoddard, who was an unhappy groom in a ceremony performed by the Judge a week ago, Elizabeth Willlamson, the bride, was already a married womaa and the role she played in the contract was that of a bigamist. The Judge has been Interviewed by Stoddard’s sister with a view toward finding out her brother's status in the case. Stoddard and Elizabejh Willlamson were married by Justice of the Peace Geary on the 22d of this month at County Clerk's office. The groom was melancholy and talked suicide. When | | the ceremony was over he threatened to end the whole affair by taking his own life. When t applied for a license he wanted to give the name of “Starten.” | | The bride-to-be objected to this and said that she would not go on with the cere- mony unless it was done properly. He then gave his right name. Although they had asked to have a Justice of the Peace summoned after the license had been issued, Stoddard changed and wanted a minister to perform the ceremony.

OAKLAND, Sept. 20.—The proposition to bond the city in order to obtain funds for the purpose of repaving Telegraph avenue is not looked upon with favor by Mayor Olney, who holds that it would be unjust to make the proposed improve- ment a tax on the entire city, when the property along the avenue is constantly increasing in value and the property own- ers would reap nearly all the benefit. Regarding the contention of the prop- erty owners that the city, having accept- ed the street, was obliged to keep it in repair, the Mayor said that so far as he had been able to learn, neither Telegraph nor San Pablo avenues had ever been ac- cepted by the city. In speaking of the proposed bond issue Mayor Olney sald: I am satisfled that the citizens of this city will never vote for bonds to pave one or even three streets when they consider that the pave- ment will be worn out long before the bonds become due. The average life of a pavement is not more than fifteen years, and the pro- posed honds run for forty years. There is another reason why the property owners will not_vote for bonds to repave Tele- graph and San Pablo avenues, and that is that property on those thoroughfares is rapldly in- Creasing in value, and the owners of this prop- rty should pay for the improvement, rather fhan ask that the expense be shared by peo- Ple in other parts of the city, where the in- crease in value Is less rapid. It the property owners on the avenue will put in & substantial pavement and plant trees o the Berkeley line, they will enhance the Value of the property ten-fold. They are only injuring themeelves by delaying these improve- ments. —_—————— Last Rites for T. J. Duff. ALAMEDA, Sept. 20.—Funeral services for the late Thomas J. Duff were held this morning at St. Joseph's Church. Beautiful floral pieces were sent by the United Engineering and Shipbuflding Works, of which the deceased was cash- jer, and by friends.
