TILT BETWEEN ATTORNEYS. At the close of the testimony in the case of Henry Winters on a charge of burglary in Judge Ellsworth's court yesterday, rat rick liurley was observed in the court room, and was arrested (in complaint of the District Attorney, who believes he was an accomplice of Winters. Winters was found guilty by the jury. There was a tilt between the District Attorney and the de- hint's attorney. The Uoard of Public Works has just authorized the Secretary to advertise for bids for improvements costing about $13, --(XX), which have heretolore been ordered by the Council. The improvements in the shape, of new sidewalks all over the city Is noticeable, especially in East and .North Oakland. Last year there were eighty-one pieces of street work finished, aggregating in assessments $3/13,000. Since July Ist, the beginning ol the present fiscal year, notices for sixty-six pieces of atreetwork have been posted, and At tue same ratio there will be three times as much work this year as last. When the Piedmont Cablft Company (h --tmi'.im'd to buiia a cable Hoe to the Six i-ienth-ritrcet (lfp'it from Fourtee'itb. ncd Wcshingtou streets there was speculation US :o bow It would gtt around tb« corner at -yonrlecr.lh nud Market streets, where there is a jog which toakes it necessary for tbe horsc-eiiM to turn, two corners iv quick suc cession. Deciding not to try to run cable cars around such complicated curves, the company lias bought the northeast corner, where the grocery store of Ainsworth Bios, stands, ana will move the buildings and throw part of the lot into the street. As soon as the plans and patterns can be got out work on the Fourteenth-street read will begin, and Superintendent Bishop of the Contracting Company says that the con struction will be made expediliously. The property-owners in the recently an nexed district are formulating a plan for a sewer in thai district. It is said ati it is now uncertain whether the annex is in the city or out of it, coutracto rs do not care to bid on work, and therefore it will be necessary to have the property-owners unite to give a personal guarantee that the bills will be paid. The sewer to be laid will connect with the main lake sewer and will be luree enough, to carry the sewage of all the tribu tary territory. The Linda Vista Terrace, consisting of fifty acres on the first heights crossed by the cable road, will be the first opened up. Streets will be graded, cement bfdt-walki) laid and other improvements in troduced. The water company is now lay ing pipes in that region and the gas com pany is considering a pioposition to do the same. CONSPIRACY ALLKGED. In the suit tor §10,000 damages brought by Sirs. M. A.

Adams, for alleged con spiracy and extortion, an answer has been tiled id which .Mi-. Hazlett is accused of endeavoring by vile practices to separate Blackburn and his wife, and the charges in the complaint are denied. Attorney Ben sou also denies Mrs. Ilazlett's statements. In- trial of the case is set lor September 15th. Recently C. L. Colo sued Mary E. Ames for (720, alleging that Mrs. Ames, a widow, is chargeable with the support of a child 13 years old, but that for two years he has given the. child its living.

Ames has filed a cross-complaint and as serts that Mrs. Cole detained the child in the town of Alamedaand prevented the boy from returning home; that Cole and bis wife inculcated into his miud principles of filial disobedience and disrespect toward bis mother; that the Coles did not permit the boy, Gerald Ames, to attend school, but compelled him to do menial and degrading work, to peddle and deliver spurious drugs and medicines, and to wander about the streets unprotected. She therefore asks the court to awaid her damages. BAIL, FOIE TWO ITALIANS. Justice \\ ticker of Berkeley held a pre liminary examination on Wednesday of the live Italians from San Francisco. Three of them were discharged, but Jolm Boscacci and Peter Morris were held for examina tion without bail and returned to . the County Jail.

The plans ol the new engine-house of Company 1 on Fifteenth street, in rear of the City Hail, have been prepared and sub mi tied to the Board of Public Works. The building is to be of brick, three stories in height, :SGx!)O, with a tower sixty feel high fur drying hose. In the basement will be placed the apparatus for heating water for the engine and other purposes. The ground Uoor has a double entrance on FiUeenth street, space for engine, hose-cart and stalls for four horses, with a work-shop in the rear with entrance on the alley. On the second flour is located the office of the Chief Engineer ol the department, a sitting-room, dormitory, bath-rooms and lockers. The third floor is given over to the lire-alarm and police telegraph department, with space for office ■ nnd battery- room.' . The ' plans show that the building will present a hand some appearance, it will front on Fif teenth street and the alley, and will have plenty of light and air. * Alameda* . ■ . - Some months ago a man named Skinner sold G. Uerdraw- a : horse for $00, guaran teeing him to be a sound and gentle animal. While the new owner was driving the horse two or three day.-, after the pur. hase he ran away, wrecking the vehicle to which he was attached. .' Berdraw then refused to pay for the horse, and i .Skinner brought suit to re cover the purchase I rice. Berdraw filed a counter claim for $15, the amount of dam ages which he alleged was sustained by his vehicle. The ense was tried in the Justice's court, and a judgment of $83 was rendered in favor of Skiuuer, while lierdraw was allowed the $15 sued for. Hut lierdraw was not satisfied with this result, and think iiiK that he miifht be compelled to purchase the animal appealed the case to the Supe rior Court, ai in the lower court Skinner proved that he did not know that the ani mal was accustomed to running away. Ber dra w.lio wever.did not prove that the amount of damages which he eustained by the smashing of his vehicle amounted to 815, but to S8 only, and a judgment for that amount was rendered, while the verdict of the lower court for Skinner was sustained. Berdraw besides having the amount of his damage reduced was also compelled to pay £33 00 for costs of court, THE GEIP STILL FREY-VLEXT. The illness from whicn Colonel E. 6. Waite is suffering has taken the form of the grip, and he ventures out of the bouse only when necessity requires it. Ser*ral other persons are reported to be suffering from tiie same disease. Colonel Georee W. Bain, the temperance lecturer from Kentucky, addressed a very large audience last evening at Park Opera II o use. Tlie contest between Columbus Bartlett and Dr. William Simpson for tbe liepiibli can nomination for State Senator will un doubtedly be settled at the primaries, as each candidate will have a ticket in the field. The contest will be a close one. Charles Dittmarr, a member of tho Fifth Infantry Band of Oakland, is suffering severely from poison oak, which attacked him while at the Santa Cruz encampment. His face is so badly swollen that he Is un able to see, and at times his suffering is in tense. A WARRANT WAR. Registration Clerks Enconutcr Another Snag. But tbe Laugh Sterns to Be on the Shylocks Instead cf the Clerks— History of a Peculiar Case. Between Auditor Strother and Treasurer Reis, Ray Falk and his associates are hav ing a merry time. In spite of the fact that the Supreme Court decided the case between Falk and Strother in favor of the former and com pelled Strother to audit Falk's warrant, now the Treasurer refuses to pay the de mand, and FalK has been obliged as a last resort to apply for a writ of mandamus in the Supreme Court compelling the Treas urer to cash the warrant in question. The case is full of curious and amusing complications, and will bear a brief ex planation. Section 20 of the Registration Act em powers tho Board of Election Commis sioners to appoint -a certain number of clerks to act as experts in examining the precinct registers, after registration lias been completed, and see if everything is all right. In 1886 this course was pursued, and Ray Falk, along with sixteen others, was appointed. But the Commissioners made the mistake of appointing these clerks some fifteen or twenty days too soon, as reg istration had not ceased at that time, and according to the law their duties could not commence until registration had censed. When tlieir warrants were presented to the Auditor for a half-month's salary that they really were not entitled to, Air. btrother refused to audit them on the ground stated, although be was one of the commission who helped to appoint them. They then took an appeal to the Hoard of Supervisors, where their demands were ap proved aud the Auditor instructed to sign their warrants. Still he refused. Finally to settle the matter Falk took his case into court and Strother agreed to abide 9y its decision. lie further agreed that the ruling in Falk's case should decide all the cases and that it would be unnecessary expense for the rest of them lo commence similar proceedings. The Superior Court decidod In Falk's favor ana it was, of course, supposed, rely ing upon Strother's promises at the com mencement of the case, that tho whole difficulty would be settled by the cletks getting their warrants signed and drawing their money. AX APPEAL TAKE.V. Not so, by any means. Strother went flatly back ou his own proposition, and so far from audit li the wairants, appealed the case to th« Supreme Court. All ili'.» time lUa clerks Wuo ffete awaking the termination <>f Faik'a oaM to have their own disposed of were taking no steps whatever to presurvo their ««n rights, v they h.vl my, i, uns! the statute of limita tions. me ease hung lire in the Supreme Court until last June, nearly four years from the time it was commenced, and then" Falk got another judgment in his favor. The supposition was naturally that this ended the war. Wrong again. True, Sir. Strother acknowledged his defeat and promptly signed Falk's warrant— more, he signed all the other warrants that had been tucked away in dusty pigeon-holes for lour years. .But when Fulk presented his to the Treasurer, to his dismay, payment was re fused. A STUPID l:LlNI)i:r.. Now comes up the intricate legal phases of the ease. When Mr. Strother went into court to defend the proceedings against him by Falls he stupidly neglected to raise the original point upon which he refused to audit the warrants, that is, that the clerks had no right to draw a salary for the half mouth previous to the closing ot registra tion, and the whole case was fought in both courts on the Auditor's duty as a min isterial officer once the warrant! were ap proved by the Board of Supervisors. Since no other points were raised the courts, of course, were limited to that one and both agreed that it was the Auditor's duty to audit warrants that had, been approved by the Board of Supervisors. AN ILLEGAL CLAIM. When the warrants, duly audited, were presented to the Treasurer to be cashed he refused to cash Talk's warrant ou the ground that it was an illegal claim— the same Ground originally urged by the Auditor— and ho also relused to cash the other war rants because whether legal or not they had expired by the statute M limitations. On this latter point ho consulted the City and County Attorney, and was tola by that ofti cer that, according to law, unsatisfied cl ims against the city expire if not prosecuted within three months. This, of course, buiied forever the sixteen warrants thai were pigeon-holed lour years ago waiting for a court decision. i'alk is now trying with all his might to resuscitate the expired warrant*, and, with that end in view, submitted to City and County Attorney i'luurnoy yesterday the following stipulation, which he asks that otlicer to sign: THE STIPULATION. In lie I-'alk itt al. vs. Kelt— ln regard to all demands against tin Treasury of the city ana comity of Ban riancisco, Stale of California, for Clerical ast>islance to the ISoaid of Election Coin ii'.issioner* fin tin- Oi'iuctlon of fraud mid scru tinizing Hie registration of voters, etc., for the year 1886. li It hereby stipulated that all of said demands nppioved and allowed by the Auditor of tin- city and county ol Bui Francisco shall bu considered im liavuiK tceu duly |>ie-.eMeo tor nayii'cut to the Treasurer ol said city and county within twenty (^d ; days after such approval mid allow :i. ■■ •-. as aloiesaici. aud 1118 payment of each of said demands iel used by Mid Treasurer.

AH ABSURDITY. . Mr. Flouruoy l::isuotyetsicned tbisdocu ment, and probably will not, because it is an absurd proceeding on its lace. The idea Unit a stipulation of any kind between any officers ol the city government can counter act and neutralize a .Stale law is so absurd that it becomes actually amusing. - " Hut the laughable feature of the whole transaction lias yet to be told. Finding that tlio Treasurer would not cash these warrants Sir. Falk went around and Rath ered up as many of them as he could find— a " dozen or more — and went downtown to ' Goldberg and oilier money brokers to sell them, lie referred them to the late deci sion of the Supreme Court in his favor, showed them the warrants duly audited, and said, so it is reported, that his reason lor wanting to sell them was befimsn there was no money at present in the City Treas ury and the boys needed the money. Without suspecting anything the Shy locks readily consented to discount them and the money was paid over. -, " The expressions of, dismay were trans ferred from the faces of the clerks |to | the faces of the money-lenders when they pre sented their discounted | warrants to I the Treasurer and payment was refused, -j. ■ Mr. Fall: feels duty bound now to square himself with his " uncle," and that is why he has taken this la.«t step in the Supremo Court.;:;'---,- --- ■ / •-.;.■■•_■:.■■■•■': .;-':' :-, Smnlalnna Frutt. ; The State Board of Trade yesterday re-' ceived some unusually line lemons,. peaches and tomatoes from .Stanislaus County.

Although the Census Office is quick to find fault, and takes pains to inform Super visor Davis of any little complaint or de fect, it neglects to acknowledge his letters or telegrams -with reference to the San Jose, Mount St. Joseph's Infant Asylum and other matters. In consequence of this slight, he intends to wire the officials at Washington, find insist upon knowing their attitude toward him. Many of the unfortunate enumerators are without the necessaries of life, while their miserable compensation is withheld from them, lhere Is some talk of their holding a mass-meeting, at which resolutions will be adopted calling upon the Government to relieve their wants. JQ reply to a letter of inquiry Superin tendent Torter, under a late date, writes as follows: "in reply to your communica tion of the 10th iust., I would state that when your district can be taken up (which 1 hope will be in the near future) your schedules will be examined and compared, and, provided they are found to be" duly aud properly filled accordiug to law and instructions, vouchers in duplicate will be mailed to you for signature, upon return of which a draft upon the Assistant Treasurer of the United States at New York, in favor of yourself, will be issued and wailed to you without delay. "The examination and comparison of the schedules of nn aimy of 50,000 enumerators consumes much time, and it is hoped that whatever apparent delay may occur in the §ettlement of individual accounts the enu merators will not regard it as deliberate ou the part of this office." NEGLECTED FOR LIQUOR. Little One* Go Hungry While Tlieir I nii-iils Uriah. Assistant Secretary Reis of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children yesterday removed two children, a boy and girl aged 2 and 3% years respectively, from the wretched and neglected home of their father, William Cavanangh, Bridge place, off Broadway, and took them to the foundling asylum at California and Brnd eru-k streets. Their mother is supposed to be dying from alcoholism, and their father is said to be cruel and addicted to excessive use of liquor. Benjamin Cavanaugb, the twelve-year old son of the couple, died on the 21st inst. unattended by a physician, and the case was reported at the Morgue. It was found that the boy had been ill a long time from heart disease and a complication of dis orders, and a death certificate assigning heart disease as the cause of death was issued. The little ones were hungry and in a pitiable condition, which the neighbors say is due to the parents' craving for liquor. I'ress Club Klectlon.

THE VARNEY ESTATE is an exceptional offering. It is the best business prop- erty in the marKet to-day. It is on the main business street of the Metropolis of this Coast, as Valencia street is the natural continuation of Market street. THREE REASONS FOR THIS CONCLUSION: FIRST— Big businesses never move up hill; like water they seek a level. Our business sections all lie on low ground; our residence sections are on tlie hills;. therefore busi- ness will naturally select VALENCIA Instead of the Market-street Extension. SECOND— The city cannot move west beyond the coast line. It must extend southward. All the recent small business growth of the city has sprung up east and west of Valencia street. 1 1! 1 1:1) — All the manufacturing Interests of the city are being located in the southern part, and this means constantly increasing business importance of Valencia street. CONDITIONS OF SALE: Twenty (20) days allowed for settlement and to complete purchase. Principal and interest payable in United States gold c;ia. Instruments of sale at purchaser's expense. ' A deposit of 10 per cent of the purchisa money payable on the fall of the hammer or announcement of sale; balance of cash payment on tend- of deed and approval of sale by the Superior Court of Altmeda County, and if not la paid (unless for defect of title) than laid 10 per cent to be forfeited and sale to ba void at seller's option.
