Macdonald & Co., San Pablo-avenue holdings of realty, covering an irregular lot of land, with frontage of 150 feet on the avenue, 150 feet on Broadway and T feet on Sixteenth street. The property was known as the Soudry block for many years. The purchasers are a syndicate of Los Angeles capitalists and the selling price is announced to be about $300,000. The brokers who handled the transac- tion said that it was an investment propo- sition and that the purchasers contem- plated no improvements at present, as most of the land js covered by leaseholds running for one and a half to two years. On the San Pablo-avenue frontage the property is covered with a row of one- story frame store buildings.

OAKLAND, Nov. 2—County Recorder | Grim has discovered that the binding of | between forty and fifty books of record! has been torn and cut until it will ne- cessitate having them rebound. This piece of vandalism was of sufficient im- portance in his estimation to warrant the employment of a private detective to try to discover who the guilty person is. Most of the books that suffered are old books of mortgages in use twenty years ago, but little used now. The interior of the books were not damaged or the per- | son, if detected, could be prosecuted for the mutilation of a public record. As it is ' it has only been the outside of the books that have been attacked. Some of them are so badly torn that the entire back on one side or the other is hanging loose. In most of the cases, however, the work of destruction has not gone so far as this. —_———— CLAIMS THE PRINCIPAL MISTREATED A BOY| Deputy Sheriff Hitchcock Lodges a Complaint Against the Head of the Grant School.

The City Council to-night, by a & to 5| vote, again gave a setback to Councilman | John L. Howard's proposal to allow the | Pacific Incinerating Company to make a thirty days’ test of its plant at Twenty- sixth and Magnolia streets before a com- mittee which should determine whether the crematory is a sanitary method of de- | stroying the city’s waste. The further de- lay was caused by the adoption of Coun- cilman Meese's resolution to grant the protesting Secorid Ward residents two weeks’ time in which to furnish a $10,000 | ihdemnity bond to protect the city against & law suit by the incinerating company. ‘Attorney Creeley for the protestants, how- ever, declared that the bond would only be given with the understanding that the | present effort to make the experimental test be dropped. The vote on Meese's mo- tion to delay was as follows: Aitken, Baccus, Elliott, Fitzger-| ald, McAdam, Meese. | Noes—Cuvellier, Howard, Pendleton, Wallace, Dornin. Councliman Howard at the outset urged the adoption of the test plan, saying: “l have taken my 9 per cent of the that has been dispensed and the browbeating and threatening to some tory question. The incinerating company ' had nothing to do with the resolution I have offered. It was presented to expe- dite the settlement of this question if ible. If the report of the committee | rall show that the crematory cannot be operated without giving offense I will not vote for the ordinance contract.” Councilman Elliott deciared an injustice had been done by locating the crematory in the Second Ward. Colonel John P. Irish, in a lengthy address, reviewed the history of the crematory fight and said: “Our objections to the crematory are | not as to odors but to the location. The plant is a damage to our property and has practically destroyed values within the range of its influence. We know this because we feel the effect of it. The city has no right by reason of its police pow ers to inflict damage on us. It is esti- mated that the returns from this con- tract to the company will be $85,000 a year. We ask thdt this crematory be not per- mitted to operate on its present location in a residence section because it is not good public policy W. 8. Goodfellow, representing the crematory company, urged that the only question at issue was whether the test | should be made. He believed that the re- sult of the test would solve the question | whether the plant is a nuisance. Council- | man Elliott sald the Second Ward would keep the crematory provided it were moved to the western end of the ward. Councilman Cuvelller urged the point: “Shall we give the crematory people a chance to show that their plaat is not a | nuisance?’ | Meese desired to give the Second Ward- | ers opportunity to present their bond. It | | | commence operations under the original ordinance which is in force. Attorney Goodfellow intimated such a course might be taken. ! The Council adopted a resolution direct- ing the ordinance and judiciary commit- | tee to make a report on the status of the to determine the necessity for further employment of spe- clal counsel in the case and to ascertain what effect a decision by the Supreme Court either for or against the city would have upon the rate payers. —_—e—————— UNIVERSITY EVENTS| BERKELEY, Nov. 2.—President Wheeler | will deliver the address at the inauguration | of Kendric C.

Foulds for the corporation said that the franchises would not be accepted, as they were not in accordance with the demands of the Southern Pacific management “You may drive a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink. We will not accept either of these franchises.” This was the way Attorney Foulds expressed himself after the passage of the ordi- Attorney Shay said: “We came here with instructions from Mr. Kruttschnitt mot to accept these franchises unless they were in a form satisfactory to us. The City Trustees and the City Attorney were distinetly told by Mr. Kruttschnitt that under no conditions would the franchises be acceptable unless they were given for the corporate life of ALAMEDA, Nov. 2-Two the roads, that is, thirty-three years for the South Side and forty-four years for the North Side line.” City Trustees Dr. H. M. Pond, W. M. Bowers, B. E. Combs and C. J. Hammond voted for the passage of the ordinances after the amendments fixing tneir exist- ence at twenty-five years were made. President J. F. Forderer®voted agalast the passage of both measures. Trustee Combs moved the passage of both ordinances, with Trustee Hammond seconding. E. J. Blanding wanted final action ‘on the ordinances deferred until the Southern Pacific Company could be requested to move its tracks from Pacific avenue west of Fifth street. He said that the corporation owned land in that vicinity and should be compelled to util- ize its own realty for its tracks. Attorney Shay wanted the stipulation in the franchise for the south side line requiring the Southern Pacific to take up its tracks on Railroad avenue between Fifth and Eighth streets six months af- ter the acceptance of the franchise stricken out. Shay's reason for asking this was that the same stipulation was | embodied in the franchise for the north side line and was therefore unnecessary. Blandings' and Says’ requests were ua- heeded by the City Trustees and the or- dinances were passed without further alteration. As there is no time stipulation in fran- chises as to when they shall be accepted or rejected by the Southern Pacifc, and as the attorneys for the corporation as- sert that the measures as passed will not be accepted, the Alameda franchise mat- ter appears as far from being settled as it has at any time the agitation commenced, four months ago e —— DESTITUTE FAMILY A CHARGE ON CHARITY Piteous Experience of a Stranded Mechanic Appeals to Those With Large Hearts.
