NEWS OF OAKLAND, BERKELEY, ALAMEDA AND SAN LEANDRO FIGHT FOR CITY JOBS WARMS UP County Politicians Campaign to Get Control of the New Commission OAKLAND. April 29.—The county FUMf has come into* the open irr Jts flsht to capture the city hall at the municipal election Jkfa'y 9. and to obtain Political control of the city govern ment for four y.ears under the new barter. Mayor Mett'a re-election is "needed. His strength is so well man lfpst*>d that «,o ring loaders have vir tually abandoned tnelr attempts to defeat him, although they tried hard fnoi,g h at the prlma'ry election to BwinK votes to Jackson. That play laiieci. ana they went to the socialists "nil a. proposition to support socialists who qualified in return for votes for ring candidates. wOw he catnPafen has resolved U seir into a question* for the voters of uakiand*to decide whethei* Mayor Mott snail be supported as the first mayor of aklanrl under the new charter by a commission with which he tan har moniously carry on hie plans, or f<vnethor the county ring shall split the municipal administration Into a far- ■ itflt. • - r,i? was between i'per ami nether millstones of j, chasing for all that cotlld be got out of the city treasury. ■ • little progress In all of the >■•■■■ of pollticar turmoil. Six years 'l«<> Mayor Mott changed that ofdar of niTairs in* ~ municipal administration. He accomplished something, and he did 't by putting political patronage and all tiie squabbles that go with it into the background. For six years llott'i methods have prevailed at the city hall. In. all of that time he has been a con stant target of attack from the old county ring, the last survivors of which are o Supervisors Joe Kelley, County Clerk Jack Cook, Supervisor Bridge and a few I .'Per lights. They have formed a scheme by which they, expect to" break into the city treasury by-way of the now municipal government, which will be elected on May 9. They figifre to control the city's business b\* electing their nominees for commissioner. . To;accomplish this Edwin Meese for commissioner No, 1 has been made the ling's special object of attack, with others on . the progressive ticket also being targets of the ring's campaign. The defeat.ot AJeese would mean that an entering wedge had been made into the city governnient and further con trol of the commisison by the Kelley- Cook combination would mean the elim ination of Mayor llott as an important factor Jn the ne\? : regime which Oak land has undertaken to establish. The ,new charter provides for "four commissioners and the mayor, each casting one j,vote*. Th^, mayor" has no veto power and is. therefore, superior to the commissioners only as presiding officer, ex-offlcio. .The county' ring ap preciates this situation and is straining every point to gain the three votes in Wie commission;, that 'will give control. ■ The Fourth °jVard s civic betterment flub has. indorsed the Mott progressive ticket. The club will make a special fight for the, election, of Edwin Meese as'commlssidner-No. 1. as he-Is a resi dent of the ward. .Matthew R. Bronner, candidate t «r school director No. 6, has also been particularly indorsed,* as he Is a member of the club. The regular 'socialist party 'organiza tion .'•. has Issued * farther '. statement* touching the activity of county,ring candidates to trad'- or* the socialist vote. The organized, party repudiates such moves. Mott Issues Statement OAKLAND* Aptil 2&.—Mayor Frank K. -Mott isued the following statement tonight concerning his attitude in,;the present municipal campaign: ; "The present campaign is one which should appeal to every citizen of Oak land as imperatively compelling the issue of good government and a contin uance of the policies which have been pursued in this city during the last six years. ■ •■ .

Hotaling's fifth and last week at Ye Liberty theater, and the char acterization he gave of Shylock when he was at this playhouse three years ago was of such a superior nature that it is certain that crowded houses will greet him.this time. It was agreed, after Hotaling had ■concluded* his engagement at Te Liberty theater three ye_ars ago, that he had been seen at his best in Shylock. His interpretation of the character, while startling and original, is yet faithful to the lines and of compelling interest. Excellent support will be given Hotaling by the company. John Hous man, wefl known in club circles on both sides of the bay, has been prevailed on to assume the role of Antonio. It will be Hotisman's first appearance on the professional stage. Another new face will be that of Ed ward Fielding, who has been brought from New York to take the part of Bassanio. Klizabeth Stewart will have the part of Portia. .Cathenine Calhoun of Nerissa. and Maribel Seymour of Jessica. The male parts, ■will be taken as follows: Henry Shumer, the Duke: Henry Hall, Gratiano: Andrew Bennisoii, Lorenzo; David Kirkland, Tubal: James Gleason, Launcelot Gobbo; George Webster, Old Gobbo. r notice\ I I TO ALL PEOPLE INTERESTED IN THE PURCHASE I 1 I I OF LOTS IN PIEDMONT MANOR ] I ■ —At a meeting held Friday night it'was de- —we arc more than justified in making this Hj !| cided to advance all prices in Piedmont advance. ,T Hi I j Manor tomorrow, Monday, May Ist. , .

Harrington | PROPERTY OWNERS TO OPPOSE POLE LINE Northside Club Objects to Elec tric Wires AUMEDA, AptMl 29.—Members of the North Side improvement club today called a mass meeting for Monday night to protest against the granting to the Southern Pacific by the city council of a franchise' for a pole line in Buena Vista avenue. The ordinance granting the franchise was before the council committee last night, but wajs with drawn owing to the omission of cer tain words making it legal. It will he before the city council again Tuesday night. The Buena Vista avenue resi dents assert that they will oppose any plan to establish a pole line on their avenue. The plan first proposed was to run the line in Clement avenue, two blocks north of Buena Vista avenue, but the railroad has been asked such heavy sums for rights of way by Clement ave nue owners that the company decided to try and secure a franchise over an other avenue. The line Is to carry the current and does not include any track age. A similar line has been con structed in Pearl street, the protests of the property owners being of no avail. ___ «. j Marriage Licenses | + — » OAKLAND.

SULPHUR STREAMS REPULSE FIREMEN Rivers of Burning Chemical En* danger Safety of Workmen in West Berkeley Blaze BERKELEY. April 29.—Rivers of burning sulphur pouring over the floors of the San Francisco sulphur works. Seventh and Snyder streets. West Berkeley, at 4 o'clock this morning, en dangering the safety of a dozen work men, made a tire at the water front factory more spectacular than the usual blaze. The flames followed the opening of the door of the brick houfO, ■where sev eral tons of sulphur had been stored in a partial vacuum. The rush of air inio the sealed chamber caused a chemical reaction which started the fire. In a few minutes the blazing chemical had melted and poured out of the store room to other rooms and to the street in small rivulets, which made the ef forts of the ■workmen under Forenvtn Frank Whlteside and Xight Watchman M. r>el»ol extremely hazardous. The burning streams and the suffo cating vapors which arose from the chemical prevented all attempts to close the doors of the brick house to shut out the air, and after vain efforts on the part of the Berkeley fire department the sulphur was left to spend its energy by burning out. The damage, according to Manager Walter Thomas, consisted wholly in the sulphur which was destroyed, amount ing to $500. The fire will not interfere with the operation of the works.

Doctor McLaren said today that he had treated her at the request of her employer, Mrs. T. E. Hicks of Berke ley, and that the woman had acted queerly from the first. Yesterday aft ernoon, he said, she tried to swallow the contents of a small bottle of lysol In his office when he tried to remove her because of her actions. He pre vented her from drinking any of the poison, but her mouth was burned in the struggle. According to several of her former employers, who were seen today, she is not In her right mind.
