SUPERVISORS
SHOWED THEIR
GENEROSITY
Provided Funds for
New Schools.
OLD FIGURES WERE RESTORED
HOSPITAL PLANS' PUT OVER
ANOTHER WEEK.
Ga9 Contracts Were Not Completed.
ArTangeiaeiits Made to Accommo
date Next Board — Copies of
the Charter.
A big delegation of citizens from the
Western Addition went before the Board
of Supervisors yesterday to protest
strongly against any reduction being
made in the amount to be 'included in
the bond issue fur school purposes. The
amount originally fixed as necessary for
school purposes was (1,500,000. Prior to
the last meeting of the board Mayor Phe
lan and President Bergerot of the Board
of Education came together and agreed
that $1,000,000 would do, and the amount
■was forthwith reduced to that figure.
Charles Uundschu was first to speak
to the board. He argued solely for the :
Lowell High School, and said that it was
the unanimous desire of the residents of
his district that they be treated as well
at least as was the Mission, when the
Mission High School was erected.
• Attorney Frank Gould represented the ,
"Western Addition Improvement Club, and
he, too, spoke for the Lowell High School.
He said the voters in the district would
be more strongly inclined to vote for the
bond issue if they were assured that a
due portion of the amount would come ;
back to .them in the shape of substantial i
improvements. He pointed out also that
every other section of the city had been
better treated in the way of handsome j
pchool buildings than the Western Addi
ction.
stave Snee, representing the Feder
ated Improvement Clubs, echoed the opin
ions of the previous speakers, and Super
visor Perrault at once moved to raise the ■
amount from $1,000,000 to $1,500,000. Super
visor Algeltinger backed him. Mayor •
I'helan read a letter from Mr. Bergerot, |
which said that an error had evidently
been committed in reducing the amount
at all His Honor, thought, of a conse
quence, that $1,250,000 would be enough,
but Supervisor linger opposed him
and said that education was one thing :
the city could not have too much of, and
h* believed that parsimony should be !
shown in any other than the School De- j
partment.
Then Assistant Superintendent of
Schools Marks came in and »the Mayor
asked him if the department could get
along without the administration and
truant school buildings. Marks replied it j
could if it tried, anil his Honor suggested j
that $1,400,000 be fixed as the amount. j
Lackmann moved as an amendment that j
that amount he fixed. When it came to i
a vote Itinger, Attridge, Collins and
Perrault voted "no," because they wanted
a million and a half instead of the lesser
figure. They afterward changed their
vote and made it unanimous.
On motion of Supervisor Phelps the
plans tor the new County Hospital went
over for another week. The board will
view the plans submitted on Friday after
noon.
A permit was granted the. National Ath- ;
letic Club to hold a professional boxing ;
•Contest on some evening between Novem
ber 15 and 30. Permission was granted 1
the Western Athletic Club to hold an
amateur contest between ember 1 and
15. in lieu of a permit previously granted
for a go between the loth and 30th.
A resolution was adopted calling atten
tion of the Public Buildings Committee
to the fact that under the charter there
will be eighteen Supervisors, and that |
necessary furniture for six more members
should be provided for.
A resolution was adopted empowering
the Finance Committee to invite bids for
a joint custody double combination safe
for the Treasurer, as required by the |
charter. The committee will confer with j
the Treasurer upon the description of the |
safe to be based. The whole matter j
will be referred to the Board of Super- j
visors and the resolution further pro- j
vldes that the '.-■'■ Treasurer and Auditor
shall adjust the combination.
The following resolution by Supervisor
Perrault was adopted:
Resolved, That the City and County Attorney
be and he is hereby respectfully requested to
prepare forms of bonds to be executed and
given by all officers and appointees under the
provisions of the new charter as follows:

and salaries be and Is hereby empowered and
required to obtain competitive bids from parties
for priming respectively 2500, 5000, 7500 and

eamo to this board for such action as may
be deemed advisable, it being necessary that
a sufficient number of copies be printed for
genera! distribution.
Alfred Fuhrman was ordered employed
as special counsel for the collection of
delinquent taxes for the fiscal years 1898
--£fj and lsW-00.
Supervisor Holland submitted an ordi
nance which determined and declared
that public interest and necessity de
mand the completion of the Hall of Jus
tice as originally designed, and that in
order to. complete it the lot at the corner
of Dunbar alley and Washington street
should be acquired by the city. The ordi
nance was sued to print. -_ ? ; .?
Mayor Phelan had another explanation
to make when the gas contracts came up
and they were again put over for ■ week.
jr.:- Honor said he had addressed another
letter to Mr. Crockett and had Inclosed
with It a statement signed by live mem
bers of the board to the effect that the
company bad broken Its compact in sub
mitting bids on street lights in excess of
10 cents each per night. No answer had

ENGINE DITCHED AND
PASSENGERS DISCOMMODED
OAKLAND, Oct. 30.— Somewhere up
! near Sleye Station there is a crippled
', engine attached to a freight train wait
j Ing to be relieved by engine No. 1404, but
the latter lies ditched near Slxteenth-
I btreet Station, a fact that to-night greatly
; discommoded patrons of the Southern Pa-
I cific Company who_ reside in Berkeley.
Shortly before 8 o'clock the tower man
In charge of the tower near Sixteenth
street had set the switches for a clear
track lor a freight train down Cedar
street. Just then engine No. 1404, in
charge of Engineer Harry Elejrwood,
came thundering up the track, bound for
i Suige Station. Whether Heywood mis
understood th-: signals or whether he un
derstood them and could not stop in time
is not known, but his engine jumped the
| block system short track, or derailing
I track, about 200 feet south of the tower.
He and his fireman jumped for their
lives and escaped uninjured, but the en
gine fell over mi its side, the coal tender
i takins a position which blocked the
! Berkeley local track. As a result passen
■ k<t traffic oh the Berkeley local was sus
pended until nearly midnight and resi
dents of the University town were com
-1 pc-llrd to v. under about on the mole until
! they learned of tii- accident; then they
! had to take the Oakland local and at
I Broadway take tha electric cars to their
lmmes. The v 4" overland ;ind two in
cqxning freight traills were also delayed.
By midHight the- wreck was cleared off
the Berkeley tracks, but the crippled en
: gine near stege station will not bo re
| lleved to-night.
Neither the tower men nor Engineer
Heywood had any information to give out
as 'to how tlie engine was ditched. It is
said Heywood waa formerly a hostler and
his fireman h wiper, and that they were
I not competent to take tho engine through.

NON-UNION LABOR
GETS A ROAST
OAKLAND. Oct. 30.— Rev. C. R. Brown, pastor of the First Congrega- {
tional Church, in his sermon Sunday night, severely arraigned non- <
union labor. His manuscript has been obtaiued by local labor organi- <
zations and will be largely distributed. His most pointed remarks *
were directed at his neighbors, the Seventh-day Adventists. Referring J
to them, he said: <
"Anything else that is called religion is incomplete and Is often a carica- <
ture. Yonder or. Twelfth street stands a religious printing house. The men c
who manage it are so religious they will not observe the Lord's day. They <
will run their establishment on that day to the detriment of the quiet of the C
neighborhood and to the annoyance of many, and then keep another day of '
their own. They aro afraid they might offend God If they kept the day the \
Christian world observes. Yet with all these scruple?, they refuse to adopt (
the wholesome, industrial methods approved by organized labor and by all <
first -class printing houses In this and other American cities. They refwse to <
pay union wages or to make the conditions nf employment such as intelli- *
gent and conscientious men In the working world to-day approve. Thus their (
house has become notorious among vorkingmen all over the State. Their
great care lest they should offend God by keeping the Sabbath of all other 4
Christians and their anomalous economic position reminds us of those re- <
Hglonißts to Whom Christ said, 'Ye tithe mint, anise and cumnrtin and neglect <
the weightier matters of justice and mercy.' " <
OAKLAND, Oct. 30 —No officer of the Pacific Press would reply to-night <
to the remarks of Rev. C. R. Brown. *
■We all feel that these criticisms are uncalled for," said a member of the <
staff, "but if any reply is to be made it should be done by our editor-in-chiaf, <
Mr. Wilcox, who is at Healdsburg and who will return Wednesday." <

asylums, visited the home of John Ca
hill, a laborer, at 920 Bryant ntreet. She
shortly afterward found Officer Cook of
the Southern police station and told hmi
a pathetic story of two children, one of
whom w;is dying of neglect. The woman
staffed that Cahill, whose wife died about
three weeks ago, was drunk in the houst,
and that one of his children, a two-year
old girl, was also at the poiiit of death.
When a^kcii why h*- did not give the
baby medical attendance Cahill replied
that h<- had had a woman attending the
children, hut that the latter had deserted
her posi of duty. Officer Cook visited the
house and Cahill promised him thai he
would Becure th<- services <>f another
mirae. The officer then reported the mat
ter tv police headquarters, and to Acting
Sergeant (/.Mara the father made the
same statement.
.Mrs. judill persisted that the child was
being neglected and wanted it removed
from the house. The father just as p ir
sistently refused to let hi> baoy be taken
away. "This occurred on Saturday alter'
noon, and last evening about H o'clock, the
child died. The woman who at lirst ac
cused the parent of inhuman treatment
an«i noglect then came forward and re
ported the matter to Coroner Hill. Hill,
in the report left on the death slip, stales
that not only are charges brought against
the father, but that the woman also holds
the police responsible. The officers, bow
ever, claim that they had no right to
■ the removal of the child from its
home.
The little body lies In the parlor at 920
Bryant street. Last night the home pre
sented ;.. pitiful appearance. The father
was disgracefully Intoxicated, while his
surviving child, a boy of five years, lay ill
and unattended In the next room. The
father claims that he called In a doctor
before his little daughter died, but last
night he appeared too Intoxicated to give
either his name or address. He Imagines
that some one Is trying to rob him of the
body and is loud in imprecations against
any one who should attempt to do so.

HE MADE LOVE TO THE
FAIR WIDOW CAMPBELL
Spirits Have Called It Off, and Now Joe Perry Will Sue
Her for Back Wag.s.
•
OAKLAND, Oct. 30.— "J0e," the Portuguese hired man who was born
in France, whose surname turns out to be Perry and who was charged
with Insanity by Mrs. C. E. Campbell, widow of the hue Police Judge
Cnmpbfl! of San Francisco, has turned the tables on the fair-haired
widow, who created a sensation yesterday by reporting that he had
made love to her and that he had declared the spirits and (Jod had told him
he must marry her.
"Joe" voluntarily appeared before the Lunacy Commissioners to-day in
accordance with his promise made to Deputy Sheriffs Striker and Taylor
last night. The young widow also appeared. She was heavily veiled and be
fore Drs. Tlsdale and Sanborn would proceed with the examination of the
Portuguese hired man they demanded of her a $10 fee, which she reluctantly
paid. The doctors argued that it was a Berkeley case and that they had
never been able to recover fees for examining insane patients from the uni
versity town without suit.
Mrs. Campbell reiterated her story as published in The Call this morn
ing; of how "Joo" had once enticed her into one of her rooms in her
former T*£rkeley home and how he attempted to hypnotize her; how the man
lnul pretested his love as being urged by spirits and the spirit of the late
lamented Judge himself; and linally how he refused *to quit the Campbell
premises at Wheeler and Ashby avenues in Berkeley. She declared her life
is in dnngor while "Joe" possesses her deceased husband's big revolver.
"Joe" Perry was then asked to explain his conduct and frankly admitted
that for a few weeks he had indulged in a belief in spiritualism, but found
it too great a mystery. He admitted, ton, that on one occasion he had
told Mrs. Campbell that God wanted them to marry, but this dream, too,
had flown, he said. The spirits had called it off. He was willing to give
up the keys to Mrs. Campbell's home and the doctors promptly discharged
him. Now Perry has retained an attorney to bring suit against the widow
for back wages due a* care-taker of her place at Berkeley.

ATTACKED BY
ANGRY MUSKRATS
Police Operator Wound
ed by the Animals.
Special Dispatch to The fall.
CHICAGO, Oct. 80.-B!eeding from a I
score of wounds, J. J. Geraghty, a police
operator in South Chicago, to-day reached
his home and told a strange story of an
attack on himself ami tlog by a horde of
muskrais In a swamp along tha Calumet
River.
Geraghty entered the swamp early this \
morning to hunt for reed birds. His dog,
a magnificent Gordon Better, accompanied
htm. Shortly after noon he started home- I
ward. Suddenly the furious barking of his j
dog startled him, and he ran forward to I
find the animal literally covered with j
muskrats, which were lighting desperate
ly, biting and squealing like mad. They
nipped at Uie dog's eyes and caught his
tongue in their sharp teeth. He seemed
almost helpless, and Geraghty fired his
fhotgun at the little army of rodent.*,
which came scampering to the scene,
hoping- to scare the ones which were fast
killing his dog. He mowed down dozens
of the rats without appreciably decreas- ;
Ing their number. The dog at last sue- ;
cumbed and the reinforcements, number
ing hundreds, Geraghty sayß, turned their
attention to him.
"They climbed through my clothes in no j
time and bit me savagely." paid the op
erator in telling the story, "and the only \
thing that saved my life was the arrival
of a couple of other hunters, who ran in 1
with clubs and beat the little fellows off." !
Geraghty's story is corroborated by the
hunters who rescued him. Muskrats in a j
portion of the swamp are known to be i
numerous and occasionally belligerent, j
but thif is said to be the first instance ,
where they have attacked a man in any I
force. .^___________
