Haldenby, a mariner, deserted from | the British ship Pass of Brander at Victoria, B. C., a short time ago and | headed for American territory aofl a life less strenuous than on a “lime- juicer. But Haldenby was down on his luck. He turned burglar to-day and was captured this afternoon liter- | ally red handed while plundering the | Masonic Scottish Rite Cathedral at | 305 Fourteenth street. Haldenby was busy ransacking the lockers in the cathedral lounging and | smoking rooms when E. B. Smith, the came upon the unbidden guest. The intruder made a move | toward the rear, but was blocked by the care-taker, who was reinforced by the seaman-burglar in hand and pre- vented him from moving until De- tective Shorey and Patrolman Forgie arrived in response to a call. The sailor was taken: to the City Prison. His hands were badly cut by glass broken out of a rear window at the cathedral, through which he had gained entrance. Haldenby is 41 years old. He claims he left the ship four weeks ago. He has been rooming at the Ramona House, Thirteenth and Harrison streets, only a block from the cathe- dral. The police have learned that for several days the prisoner had been from house to house in the Lakeside district, ostensibly in search of em- ployment.

An order allowing Andrew J. Clunie $70,000 out of the estate of the late General Clunje was made by Judge Coffey yesterday. The order in no- wise affects Clunie’s standing as a re- siduary legatee under the will of his brother, neither does it reduce the es- | tate to such an extent that in the event the claims of Florence Clunie to one- half of it is allowed it will not be large enough to meet the amount of her claim. It is simply a distribution to Clunie of part of the money he would receive whether or not the widow’s con- tention that the estate is community property is sustained. Neither is the amou; large enough to mitigate against the interests of “Jack” Clunie, the testator’s adopted son. Mrs. Clunie made her first appearance in court yes- terday, though she took no part in the proceedings. ——————— Miller Resigns From Board. C. 0. G.

Some person with maliclous intent| started the rumor to-day that the Oak- land Bank of Savings had closed its doors. The intent is supposed to have been a malicious one, because it was discovered by the bank officials that during the day telephone messages had ! been sent in many directions to that ef- fect, with the apparent desire to injure the bank. The story was started by anonymous telephone messages sent to all of the newspaper offices in Oakland. These messages merely conveyed the informa- tion that the Oakland Bank of Savings had closed its doors, and as these mes- sages were sent during banking hours it took but a very few moments for the newspaper men to convince themselves that this was not true. The sender also telephoned to various, points in the West Oakland railroad yards, to the Judson Iron Works, to merchants all over Oakland and ‘even to individuals. The story was undoubtedly sent out with intent to do the bank injury, for it has been inspected by the Bank Com- missioners within the last few weeks and was never in sounder condition. W. ‘W. Garthwaite, the cashier of the bank, said: = “We have traced this matter and we are pretty well satisfied that it came from a customer with whom we had some differences. Never before in the history of the bank has it been in sounder and more prosperous condi- tion.” STUDENTS FAVOR PICK AND-HOE Berkeley Office San Francisco Call, 2148 Center Street, Feb. 5. By unanimous vote the students of the University of California, meeting this morning in Harmon gymnasium, decided for a student labor day on Feb- ruary 29, when every student of the university will go out and do a day's manual labor. Books and studies will be laid aside in favor of the pick and the hoe and the shovel on that day. There will be broken backs and aching bones and blistered hands the next day, but these will be balmed with the pride that comes from the conscious- ness of having done an ennobling work. Eve’ the co-eds will have a share in the glories of the day, for they have promised to bring around dinner pails full with nourishment for the thousand hungry mouths that will cry for food. John W. Geary presic this morning in the absence of Max Thelen, president o> the Associated Students, who is ill. The report of the labor day committee, conssting of F. L. Johnstone, A. L. Price and G. J. Anloff, was read and discussed. This report said that the students could make a path from Ban- croft way to Co-ed Canyon, across the Hillegass Tract, with a bypath to Hearst Hall. and widen the road lead- ing from the botany to the chemistry building by six feet, a gravel path also to be constructed. A committee from the Associated ‘Women Students—Miss Margaret Hen- derson, Miss Martha Rice and Miss Sarah McLean—reported that the co-eds had agreed to contribute 15 cents each toward a fund for the purchase of food supplies for the worKers. —_————————— Dr. Shaw Honored.

John L. Howard, chairman of the) special committee of the City Counecil, | read a paper to-night, by request, | before the Oakland Board of Trade in| explanation of ‘the business features of the report recently submitted to the | City Council by the committee on lhei subject of municipal water supply. Councilman Howard. after briefly re- citing conditions that led to the organ- | ization of the special committee and defending the course of Desmond Fitz- gerald of Boston, one of the committee, read at length from the expert's re- port, reviewed the Bay Cities'’ Water Company offer and reiterated the statements that the Contra Costa Water Company's tender of lease and sale was inspired by, the special com- mittee, and not by President Willlam J. Dingee of the water company. Con- cerning the plan of arbitration on the value of the water company's plant, Councilman Howard vigorously de- fended it. He said: The committee anticipated and discussed every question that has so far been raisea concerning the methods to be employed in car- rying out its recommendations. It well knew that the signature of the president of the cor- poration did not bind the corporation and that it constitutes only a moral obligation; that when the city has chosen its expert and is ready to enter Into the agreement, which will be legally prepared to set forth the duestions | to be submitted to arbitration, the corpora- | tion will be called upon to take such official action as will make the contract legally bind- ing upon the company After such contract is made the actual en- gagement of the experts will take place, and if, during the progress of the arbitration. either side has just and valid reason to fear unfair treatment the agreement to arbitrate may be revoked at any time prior to the final award. NOT FORCED TO BUY. Now to the purchase part of the proposition. The city does mot have to buy it unless it | wishes. It will be no part of the arbitration agreement that the city is bound to purchase. I need not even consider the idea of purchase until after the valuation is announced. But the water company will in advance agree to sell at the valvation to be fixed. Touching a series of conditions which the committee found as obslaw cles in the way of a $6,000,000 issue of bonds for a water plant, Mr. Howard said: But, yn the migst of all these doubts and perplexities, let me peint out to you how the difficuities disappear under the proposition of lease with the right of purchase. The immediate necessity of providing in a bond issue for a water supply passes away, and the people may take the matter up at their convenience, therefore we may Dbegin at once the consideration of the other projects that seem to be urgently needed by the city and demanded by the people It the city desires to make the plant pay for fitself, and not permit the investment to intrench upon the 15 per cent limitation, then, under a wise administration, this may be ac- complished during the life of the lease. While the city is operating the plant it does not have to consider payment for any enhance. ment in value due to the increase in_popula- tion and of the vclume of business. This en- hancement will accrue to it because the price will be fixed now. CITY MAY LEGISLATE. If it desires to ask legislation to enable it to issue bonds for a revenue yielding and seif- supporting property, without including those bonds in the 15 per cent limitation, it may do so. Councilman Howard next referred to the recommendation that the water rates suit be dismissed, saying the committee was courageous enough to make that proposition, because it is in the interests of economy. Mr. Howard, in closing. said: Have the opponents of the committee's rec- ommendations any other solution to offer that, in the present situation, will better serve the interests of the city? If they have, it be- hooves them to submit it, and that quickly. If they have not, then in this erisis the press, the merchants and the people should put their shoulders behind this movement in a united effort to accomplish something for the good of Oakland. ——————e DS BEAR NOTED WARRIOR TO LAST REST FRIE! Men of the Army, the Veterans, the Masons and Odd Fellows Mourn for Late Captain McCleave. BERKELEY, Feb. 5.—The funeral of Captain William McCleave, the vet- eran warrior and pioneer citizen of Berkeley, took place at 11 o'clock this marning from the family residence, 1515 Walnut street.

OAKLAND, Feb. 5.—A meeting of West Oakland citizens at the Aloha Club was addressed by several speak- ers last night at 1362 Peralta street in regard to making a resistance against the locating of the garbage crema- tory at Twenty-second and Wood streets.

OAKLAND, Feb. —A musical event of more than ordinary interest will take place next Sunday evening at the First Presbyte Church when Alfred Gants’ sacred cantata, “The Holy City,” will be presented by well known soloists and a chotus of fifty voices. This will be the second | time only that this beautiful compo- sition has been heard in Oakland and considerable interest is being mani- fested in the approaching production. The cantata is divided into twe parts—*‘Contemplation” and “Adora- tion.” It is replete with musical gems, the splendid barytone solo, “A New Heaven and a New Earth,” in the first part being one of the most exquisite things in the entire book. Clement, Rowlands, choir director of the First Presbyterian Church and the possessor of ,a delightfully full, rich voice of rare sweetness and fin- ish, will sing this solo with an ac- companiment by an invisible choir. There is also a fine chorus of fe- male volces. The last chorus, “Great and Marvelous Are Thy Work: magnificent bit and a fitting finale to a composition so uniformly beautiful. The cantata will be presented under the direction of Mr. Rowlands, and the other soloists will be Mrs. Carrie Brown Dexter and Miss Louise Stubbs, sopranos; Mrs. Gussie Bergman, con- tralto, and . F. D. Ames, tenor. Miss Virginie de Fremery will preside at the organ. ——— e ——— Says Wife Drinks. OAKLAND, Feb. 5.—Henry P. Smith to-day began a suit for divorce against. Marie N.
