Center Pleads for Contra Costa Company in Higher Federal Court AYS STOCK IS RUINED Figures and Affidavits Are Submitted, but Cause Goes Over Until Next. Week| e There was a litle surprise in the| United States Circtit Court of Appeals | yesterday during the heafing of the case of the Contra Costa Water Com- | pany, which is seeking to restrain the | city of Oakland from putting into ef-! fect lower water rates after July 1. | While Attorney Heney was reading | certain figures on behalf of the water | company he was nudged by Mrs.| Jeanie D. Center of 2116 Bush street, | | Who quietly requested him to give way | to her for a moment. Heney acqui- esced and the lady said: “If it please your Honor, I would like to address the court at this time, | as the figures which are being quoted | are not correct, for it is a fact that in- | stead of the stock being worth $35 now | it is not worth anything and has no; standing.” i Judge Gilbert interrupted and said| that if she desired to make any state- ment it would be better to file an affi-| like to have the court learn. “Well, your Honor,” she said, "I un-| derstood you-to say yesterday that you | wanted all the information you could get and 1 supposed this was a court of justice where the injured could present | their side of the matters involved.” | JUSTICE IS DISPENSED. The court replied that that was ex- actly the case, but the matter should be presented in proper form. When asked why sie had taken any | part in the proceedings, Mrs. Center | said she was a stockholder in the com- pany, but now her interest had no| marketable value. She was undecided | whether she would take the advice of | the court regarding the filing of an affidavit. She left the room and the During the hearing Attorney Heney | read extracts from the afidavit of L. J. | Le Conte, the well known expert engi- | neer. Mr. Le Conte estimated the value | of the company’s property some time ago and prepared a pamphlet in detau[ $6,456,336. | Those figures he did not believe would | |‘cover the value now, as there had been | and placed the amount at many improvements and additional | port. . FIGURES ARE SUBMITTED. | Jacob Barth, the stock broker. sub- | mitted an affidavit showing the fluctu- | ations of the stock of the Contra Costa | | holdings secured since he made his “-l | Water Company for a number of years. | Heney read the various fizures which | | demonstrated that in 1899 the stock had been quoted at from $79 to $64. but that | now it was down to $35, all of which was due to the antagonism shown by the | | Oakland Council in the matter of fix-| Jng rates for this year. After a mass of figures had been read and the present members of the Oakland Council accused in an affi-| davit of trying to ruin the comvanv | for political reasons, the case was con- tinued until next Wednesday to enable the attorneys to secure affidavits. This morning the Spring Valley Water Company's application, which is a similar case, .will be heard. OAKL. of the City was taken gathering figures upon which it rived at a valuation of the Contra Costa Water Company’s plant. This action is made necessary by the suit begun by the water company ask- ing for a restraining order to prevent the Council from putting into effect the rates adopted. The affidavits are to meet the figures water company’s experts. ADVERTISEMENTA. WONDERFUL CURE OF SORE HANDS By Cuticura Aft the Most Awful Suffering Ever Experienced. EICHT DOCTORS | | And Many Remedies Failed to do a Cent’s Worth of Good. ““About five years ago I was troubled with sore hands, so sore that when I would put them in water the palz wonld very nearly set me crazy, the skin would peel off and the flesh would get hard and break. There would be blood flow- ing from at least fifty places on each hand. Words could never tell the suf- fering I endured for three years. I tried everything that I was told to use for fully three years, but counld get no relief. I tried at least eight different doctors, but none of them seemed to do me any good, as my hands were as bad when I got through doctoring as when I first began. I also tried many reme- dles, but none of them ever did me one cent’s worth of good. I was discour- and heart-sore. I would feel so bad mornings when I got up, to think I had to go to work and stand the pain for ten hours, aad I often felt like giv- ing up my position. Before I started to work mornings I would have to wrap every finger up separately, so as to try and keep them soft and then wear gloves over the rags to keep the grease from getting on my work. At night I would have to wear gloves in bed. In fact, I had to wear gloves all the time. But thanks to Cuticura, the greatest of all great skin cures. After doctoring for three years, and spending much money, a 50c. box of Caticura Ointment ended all my suffer- ings. It's been two years since I used any and I don’t know what sore hands are now, aud never lost a day’s work I while using Couticura Ointment.” THOMAS A. CLANCY, 810 N. Montgomery St., Trenton, N. J.

A. Curtin, who seeks to recover the sum of $1103 43 from Kelly on an sigred claim from the Bay Counties Commercial Company, which supplied the defendant with milk. In a counter charge he asks for $50,000 damages. Kelly avers that the Bay Countles Commercial Company has for its pur- Doses as a trust absolute restraint of the milk trade, and has endeavored to annoy and harass him by the institu- tion of this action through Curtin, be- cause, while a milkman, he would not bow to and be controlled by the trust. He alleges that the company furnished him with milk below the standard fixed by the Board of Health of San Fran- cisco and the board declared the milk to be dangerous and unfit for human consumption. At the time he entered into a con- tract with them for a supply of milk, Kelly avers, he was a prosperous busi- ness man, and by reason of the im- pure milk delivered by the Bay Coun- ties Commercial Company he lost his customers and was eventually ruined. He charges that the impure milk was responsible for the death of the child cf one of his customers. Kelly alleges that his reputation as a milkman and business man has been injured and he asks for damages in the sum of $50,000.

(ON-UNION MAN CAUSES FRIGHT Special Police Officer at the| Freight Sheds Summons ‘Help When Not Necessary | FOUR HUNDRED ATWORK Goods Are Being Handled Rapidly and Employes All Appear to Be Satisfied | _.‘_ Non-union freight handlers to the number of 400 are getting three good meals a day and also getting out great | quantities of goods from the sheds of| the Southern Pacific Company. Spe- cial policemen are on duty in squads | of three and four, while sixty regular | policemen are aiso there to preserve | order and see that the property is fully | protected. | No arrests have been necessary on | account of the strikers, though there was a slight demonstration at Fifth and Townsend streets last night |caused by one of the special officers | getting frightened at the appearance of | | three men and calling for help. In his excitement he overlooked one of the | regular officers, who was standing within a few yards of hip talking to | & newspaper man. There was no ap- parent cause for the man’'s fear, yet he ran up the steps that cross the tracks and hastily summoned five of- officers and the sergeant, who were | above. The few strikers who were on | the opposite corner saw the officers | coming down the stalrs in a hurry and | wondered where the trouble was, know- ing of no eccasion for the demonstra tion. \ Word was recelved from Sacramento last night that Governor Pardee had appointed the following rallroad and steamboat policemen upon the appli- cation of the Southern Pacific Compdny to serve at San Francisco: John Holl- man, George Grant, A. Tilton, T. R. Hunt, H. Hubbell, A. L. McDonald, G. H. Dow, H. J. Stack, H. Goodrich, G. Nutting, H. A. Brandon, Fred Probst, Charles A. Garland, N. Turnbull, R. Patleton, W. C. Horner, Frank Man- astrom, John Duggan, M. T. Hardee, M. Kelley and A. Brandon. UNION PICKETS ON GUARD. Union pickets patrol the outside of the sheds and improve every chance they get to endeavor to induce the men at work to quit. Thus far they have not succeeded in getting more than ten men out of the 400 to join them. The men who are at work appear to be sat- isfled with the treatment they are re- | celving from the company, but the| strikers believe many of them will quit to-morrow night. Trains are going out with their cus- | tomary loads and an inspection of the | | sheds shows little signs of congestion. | | Foreman Pat Dorn says the men are| | doing good work, and unless they are! interfered with ‘there will be no chance | of the union’s being recognized. The checking clerks have decided to | | remain at work, and while they do | |there is little chance of the union win- | ning. Members of the union admit that. but they say they will continue their | plans of endeavoring to persuade the | men to quit. ! PROMISE NO VIOLENCE. | Some of the strikers are getting rest- | less, but they say they will avold trou- | { ble and show the company they can | win without any attempts at violence. | It was rumored last night that one of the non-union men, who does not llv-‘ at the sheds, was assaulted on his way home. | This was incorrect. An intoxicated | man fell from the sidewalk at Fourth | | and Folsom streets, cutting his scalp | | so badly that when he wandered down | | to the freight yards in a drunken con- | dition he was sent to the hospital. He | was not employed at the sheds nor con- nected with the strikers. e A A | WILL VOTE ON AGREEMENT. Saflors’ Union to Take Up Terms With Employers at Next Meeting. The Sailors’ Union at its next meet- | ing will take a final vote on the agree- | ment that has been prepared by a spe- clal committee for submission to the Ship Owners' Association. The bellef prevails among the members of the unfon that the agreement will be rati- fled for the-period of a year and that peace between the employers and the | sailors will be insured for -another | twelve months. Reports received from various points by the local officials of the union indicate that shipping is | at present dull along the coast. Ac- cording to advices from San Pedro and Honolulu the supply of sailors ex- ceeds the demand. At the last meeting of the Laborers’ Protective Union, President P. H. Mc- Carthy and Secretary O. A. Tveitmoe of the Building Trades Council ad- dressed the members on the good work accomplished by the former organi- Both speakers referred to the present troubles between the mine- owners and their employes in Colo- rado and attributed the existing con- dition of affairs to the acts of the owners. The union initiated seventeen members and received a number of ap- plications for membership. On Sun- day, June 19, the Laborers’ Protective Union will hold its annual picnic at Glen Park. One of the features of. the affair will be a tug of war between teams from the Laborers’ and Hod Carriers’ unions. —_—————— Alaska Excursions Scason 1904.
