The campaign for the bond issue for Oakland improvements has begun, though the City Council has not yet formally cailed the election. In com- j mittee session the Council has de- {cided that the bond election shall be | held September 27 and at the meeting on Monday next this action will be regularly taken. All of the other pre- liminary work has been done and | there now remains nothing but a cam- paign of a little more than six weeks jin which to impress upon the voters of Oakland the necessity for the pro- posed improvements. A regular campaign will be under- | taken by the city officials of Oakland | and the various improvement societies | and organizations interested in the ad- | vancement of the city. All of such |societies will hold meetings before {the bond election, at which members |of the City Council and city officials | will be requested to explain the pro- | posed bond issue and the reasons for its adoption. The first general meetihg for the | central portion of Oakland will be | held August 16 under the auspices of |the Oakland Board of Trade. This will be the regular quarterly meeting | of the board and they will resolve it |into a bond meeting. The officers of {all the local improvement societies | have been invited to be present and | the plan is to start a series of meet- |ings in all sections of the city and to carry on an active campaign that will | induce every voter in the city to cast e ‘his ballot Sevtember The first actual meeting in favor of 4bunds was held last night in the| Union-street Presbyterian _ Church. | | The meeting was called by the Men's | League of that church for a discus- sion of the matter, but there was ve! little discussion, for the members | seemed to all be of one mind and that | for the bonds. Addresses were made by George W. Dornin, president of the Oakland City Council, 'and Edwin Meese, ‘chairman of the Street Com- mittee of that body. Dornin showed that if all the bonds were voted it would add $3 25 in taxes to each thousand ddllars’ worth of property in Oakland for the first year and that | this would be reduced as the bonds were paid off and property values | rose. He believed that the increased | | valuation of Oakland property caused | by the investment of the bond money | would meet, to a large extent, the in- crease of actual taxes. January 1| | next Dornin said that the bonded in- | debtedness of Oakland would only be $252,500. This would leave an avail- |able bond credit of $5,000,000, which | | could be raised for a water plant if | | the people thought best. 1 WOODMEN Wi THEIR ACTION ety Company Must In- demnify the Athens Camp for i THEFT NOT A DEFENSE Claim That Former Insured Treasurer Was Blameless) Is Held Not Good Excuse s i e Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1016 Broadway, Aug. 10. By a verdict rendered to-day the Fi- delity Deposit and Trust Company of Maryland is held responsible for the sum of- $269 22 lost by W. H. Robinson, former treasurer of Athens Camp No. 457, Woodmen of the World, and must pay this amount to the camp, as well as costs, amounting to $17 in the Jus- tice’s Court, and 82 in the Superior Court. The money, it was claimed by Robinson, was stolen from his room, and the surety company made the de- fense that it could not be held respon- sible for mething not the result of the act of Fobinson. The j¥ry failed to the case. Robinson money in a bureau drawer when he went out one night and found on re- turning that his room had been ran- sacked by thieves and the money stolen. He r&fused to make the loss good, and suit was brought against the company, his surety, for the amount. The plea that Robinson was not re- sponsible was held not to be a good de- fense, because bondsmen are for pro- tection®against loss without reference to the manner in which the loss may be occasioned.

CARL C. PLEH COLLEGE OF COMMF VERSITY OF CALIFORNL g B3 New Courses Offered in the College of Commertce. at University. —e BERKELEY, Aug. 10.—In response to the rapidly increasing enrollment in the college of commerce of the Uni- versity of California the work of the department of economics has been completely reorganized for the next term. Announcement was made to- day of many new courses in economics with direct and practical application to the needs of modern industrial life. These coursgs will be of great inter- est, however, not only to students who are fitting themselves for banking, in- surance, commerce, manufacturing and exploitation of natural resources, but also to the theoretical student. Professor Cgrl C. Plehn, dean of the college of commerce, will offer during the year a new course in the “History and Theory of Prices,” in which he will discuss the methods of scientific investigation applicable to a study of prices and the causes of their fluctuations. In addition he will give courses in American agriculture, the economics of industry, public finance, statistics and railway transportation. The course which he gave last year in the history of economic science will this year be given by Professor Adolph C. Miller, who has arranged that Professor Plehn shall take his course in railway transportation. The work in economies will be completed by the highly important courses to be given by the head of the department, Professor Miller of the chair of political economy and commerce. Besides the course in the history of economics he will offer a new elementary course in the intro- duction of economics and will repeat his old courses in the principles of economics, the financial history of the United States, and advanced econom- ics. Assistant Professor Wesley C. Mitchell will offer a new course in “International Exchanges,” in which he will consider foreign bills, prices, international trades, foreign invest- ments and shipments. Professor Mitchell will also assist Professor Miller in the course on the principles of economics, and repeat his lecturcs on banking, money, the labor prob- lem and ecSnomic origins. Dr. Simon Litman, instructor in commercial practice, will offer two new courses, one touching upon busi- ness forms and practice and the other upon customs tariffs and regulatiors. His other courses will be discussions of modern industrial processes, the tfehnlque of trade and transporta- tion. The department has been greatly strengthened by the addition of Pro- fessor Henry Rand Hatfield and Pro- fessor Jessica B. Peixotto to the teaching staff. Professor Hatficld's courses will deal' with commercial geography, the geography of interna- tional trade, the history of commerce, practical banking, the principles of accounting and the investment wnar- ket. Professor Hatfield is an au- thority on the subject of commercial accounting and was lately called from the University of Chicago to accept the post of associate professor of ac- counting. . Dr. Peixotto will lecture on con- temporary socialism and the history of socialism, in which he will review the methods of contemporary social- istic parties and examine the antece- dents of contemporary socialism. The instruction in the department will - clude. finally, lectures on agriculture ! by Professor Elwood Mead of the irri- gation department, on the commerce of China and Japan by Professor John Fryer, on the methods of modern charities and corrections by Professor Ernest C. Moore and on insurance by Albert W. Whitney. — Scares Off Burglar With a Bat, BERKELEY, Aug. 10.—Charles V.

Masons and Odd Fel- lows and other friends joined in paying tribute and gave inspiring testimony of regard for a noble life departed. The services at the bier were con- ducted in Odd Fellows’ Hall by Durant Lodge of Masons, which claimed Dr. Payne in brotherhood. Walter A. Gom- pertz, master of the lodge, directed the ceremonials and was assisted by the other officers of the lodge in full re- galia. The Oakland Masonic Quartet sang “The Eternal Goodness,” “Fallen Asleep”’ and “Good Night, I Am Going Home,” and there was a solo by Alfred Wilkie, who gave “Be Thou Faithful Unto Death.” At the cemetery the services were conducted by Berkeley Lodge of Odd Fellows. The quartet sang there “‘Nearer, My God, to Thee,” and “Fare- well.” The pall-bearers were C. R. Lord and Joseph McClain, representing the Ma- sons; F. L. Ryus and John Woolley, 0dd Fellpws; R. W.

HORSES PERISH IN THE FLAMES Scope of Animals, With Many Vehicles and Large Stock of Feed, Consumed e e XEAMEDA, Aug. 10.—Fire to-night burned the Graham stables, owned by R. H. McMillan, on Sherman street, near Central avenue. Twenty-two horses perished and thirty-five vehi- cles, with harness, hay and grain, were destroyed. The large two-story frame building occupied by the stables was swept clean. Besides this loss a two-stowy frame building adjoining the stables, owned by Frank Moulton of Palo Alto and occupied by Frank Templeman, was badly injured. Two cottages owned and occupied by Antone Vaccarezza at 1416 and 1418 Sherman street were damaged, as was C. A. Fortner's res- idence at 1217 Central avenue, owned by Syz & Co. of San Francisco. The total loss is $20,000. From the stables ten horses and four or five vehicles were saved. McMillan's loss will reach $15,000 to $17,500. Fire- men had great difficulty in handling the flames. gine Alameda owns was in a repal shop and out of commission. The de. partment was compelled to work with the ordinary hydrant pres- sure, which was so low that a stream of water would not reach the second story of the burning buildings. It was only by strénuous effort that a disas- trous spread of the fire was prevented. The fire broke out in a room in the stable occupied by the employes as a sleeping apartment. Al Bray, a stableman, saw the sud- den outbreak at 9:45 o'clock. He- was at the rear of the big barn. Bray ran to the firehouse, not fifty feet away, on Sherman street and gave the alarm. The hose company responded quickly, but the whole structure was afire be- fore the water was in service. A gen- eral alarm was sounded and brought the entire department the scene. Volunteers tried to save the live stock, but not more than one-third of the horses escaped. Most of these, as well as the vehicles and harness destroyed, belonged to individuals who kept their stock at the stable. The fire made such headway that the firemen exXerted themselves to save the neighboring res- idences. Insurance was carried on the damaged dwellings. McMillan’s insur- ance could not be ascertained. The cause of the fire is not known. S e CAPTAIN PETERSEN ON DUTY.—OAK- LAND, Aug. 10.—Captain of Police W. J. Petersen returned to duty to-day after month’s_vacation in the Sierra Nevada Moun- tains.

Republican nomination for Supervisor, | but there is going to be no friction in, health official and well known practic- | the Republican party as a result of that | | i victory if he and his friends can help ‘it. The battle was a stubborn one and hard fought in every precinct. Leaders were arrayed against leaders on each side, and there was bitterness in some sections, but simply because two Re- publicans came together in a hard fought primary is not considered to be any reason why the fight should be con- tinued. As a result of this feeling there were several little private conferences last night and to-day. victorious leaders talked with several of the defeated leaders, with the resuit that the wounds of battle are rapidly healing, and by the time the Presiden- tial election is here the party will be more united in Alameda County than it has been for many years. These conferences were informal, and personal rather than official, but they all tended to harmony in the future. Those who talked matters over were } H. Spear and A. H. Breed of the Mitch- ell forces, and County Clerk J. P. Cook, his chief deputy George Pierce, J. Cal Ewing and a number of others repre- expressed conciliatory sentiments. The Mitchell managers frankly said that they wanted the Randolph men to get sire to give the defeated side full recog- nition in the convention and in the fu- ture. The Randolph men met them in t officers to be nominated this year ex- cept three Supervisors, and the county convention when a county ticket is to be put up is still two years away, it is likely that the hatchet will be buried. RETURNS CANVASSED. The canvass of the returns of yes- terday’'s primar by the Supervisors to-da; It is a complicated and tedious task, owing contesting tickets within each party. trict and the portions of the Fiftieth and Fifty-second districts comprised in the Fifth Supervisorial District were canvassed, these covering two Republican contests. This canvass showed that pervisorial District by a majority of 120, including the Fiftieth Assembly District and West Oakland. In the Fiftieth Assembly District, where the hardest fight was, he had a majority of 102, while in the Forty-ninth As- 30. Fifty-second A Supervisorial district, of which he lost Colden Gate by 64 votes and carried Feralta by 20. The vote for Assemblyman in the Ferty-ninth District was about as a difference of just three votes in the total in fhat district. Those three votes were in favor of Morris Flynn, but as the Assembly district was di- vided into election precinets, J. J. Rurke carrisd a majority of the dele- gates and will get the nomination, This peculiar condition was caused by the fact that Flynn carried only one precinct in his district, his home pre- cinet, but he carried that by a phenomenal vote, and Burke carried a majority of the voting precincts, each. by a small majority. This ma- jority was so small in one precinct, a pertion of the Fourth Ward, that Flynn elected one delegate out of the eight apportioned to that place, Burke elected six, while three dele- gates were tied for the eighth vote. This will give Burke 21 1-3 delegates and Flynn 10 2-3 delegates in the en- tire district. IN UNDISPUTED CONTROL. The indications are that the Lay- mance-English faction of the Demo- cratic party will have undisputed con- trol of the convention of that party. The Democratic vote was so small, however, that a very few votes would have swung the party control either way. In the Forty-ninth Assembly District there were only 55 votes cast fer both Democratic county tickets and only 47 votes for both Democratic State tickets. The Laymance-English ticket won the county fight by a vote of 35 to 20 and they won the State fight by a vote of 30 to 17. There has been no discussion about Democratic nominees, the fight being solely for control of the party ma- chinery. In the Republican party all contests are likely to be smoothed over and the" following ticket nominated without opposition: Congress—J. R. Knowland. State Senator—Thirteenth District, J. G. Mattos Jr.; Fourteenth District, V. M. Simpson; Ffiteenth District, G. 2. Lukens. Assembly—Forty-sixth District, J. G. Strowbridge; Forty-seventh Dis- trict, J.

UNIVERSITY EVENTS BERKELEY, Aug. 10.—In & recent letter to President Wheeler, George R. Parkin, chief executive agent of the Rhodes trustees, makes a statement regarding the number of candi- dates for Rhodes scholarships in each State who passed the qualifying examinations set by the University of Oxford. Five States had no candidates, twelve had only ome each, and ouc of 243 who from all the United States took the examinations only 120 passed. It is there- fore creditable to California that out of eight Californians who took the examinations seven passed. Dr, Agassi®? of Harvard University has ex- tended an invitation to Professor C. A. Ko- to join him in an expedition into the Pacific Ocean in search of marine specimens of animal life, The party will leave San Francisco on the Fish Commission steamer Albatross October 1 and visit during the ex- pedition Panama, the Galapagos Islands, Cal- las, Easter Island and Acapulco before re- turning to San_Franeisco. Professor F. B. Dresslar of the department of pedagogy has returned to the university after having spent the last six months in Eastern_and European travel Miss Margaret Henderson, ‘04, has accepted the invitation of Mills College to occupy the place of instructor in natural history. The football eleven will not secure the ser- vices of Bartlett L. Thane as an assistant coach this year, as he has found it necessary to go to the Kiondike to take charge of some mining Interests.
