need OF more thorough preparation Of

1t is stated positively in Oakland by
those who should know that the Whitney
Transportation Company has been pur-
chased by the monopoly and that possibly
to-day. at least within a few days. this
line will cease to exist. The story is

DIR. bennett of Oakland Censures the
Southern Pacific.
The Rev. L. P. bennett of the Thirty
fourth-street Methodist Episcopal Church,
Oakland. had something to say in his ser
mon last night about the giant monopoly
he preached from the text Mark iii:5:
And looking round on them with anger, being
greyed for their hardness OF heart he says TO The
man: Stretch forth Thy hand, and he stretched
1t forth and bis hand was restored.
He had read 10 paper the other day a
description of the Indian war dance at the
Worlds Fair which had been performed
under the gaze and. for the pleasure Of
thousands of representative Americans
and allowed by gentlemen presumed to be
OF the highest type of all that was high n
American civilization. 1t was almost in
credible to him that such a thing could
have taken place anywhere at any time in
the worlds history aud that it should have
actually taken place at the Worlds FAIR
passed his comprehension.
do we need anything else," continued
the preacher. "to prove that hardness of
heart is characteristic of the nineteenth
century?
"But hardness of heart is not only
characteristic of the pleasure seeking, but
the wealth-seeking people of the present
day. The maxim that business Is bu siness
IS SAID to excuse more cruelty and hard
ness of heart than anything else.
"ln Oakland we have recently seen
specimens of that cruelty that character
ICES the wealth-seeking classes. That an
express train should be made to run
through our mueh-traveled streets at a
speed of thirty miles an hour shows that
the men at the head OF the railway com
pany care far more for dollars than for
the bodies of human beings. l suppose
these men will say. Just so long as the
courts allow it we must make money, no
matter how many lives are lost or who
may suffer- The few men who own stock
in the railroad company are not alone In
this evidence of cruelty and hardness of
heart, but 1t is representative OF the desire
that Denetrates the whole body polite.

human character of some of its highest and
purest elements, notably sympathy for
fellow beings"

The second accident happened at 8 80
o'clock Saturday afternoon. Robert
Campbell. an ola man Of So wears, tried to
jump from the flyer at Seventh and
Washington streets and suffered in much
the same manner as Brazil did yesterday.
He managed to get to his feet little
quickly. however. and lmped off half
dazed to his room at the Oakland House.
He imagined that his injuries were not
serious ana tried to dress his wounds
himself. In this he failed to accomplish a
good result. and when he awoke yesterday
morning his face and body were infiamed
and In so alarming condition that he was
forced to go to the Receiving Hospital for
help. An examination revealed the fact
that he was a badly battered man, and
careful treatment alone restored him to
anything like hopeful condition.
1t became apparent to Mr.. Campbell
that he would be unable to resume work
for some time on account of his injuries,
and being poor and dependent upon his
own exertiOns for a livelihood he was
forced to apply for admission to the In
frmary.

She Did Not Cut Much of a Figure

in Yesterdays Fight.
The Grace Barton came and went with
considera BILE regularity from her dock in
Oakland alongside the landing-pl OF
the Alvira and Rosaie.
Her passenger list was not heavy one
at any time in the day. Probably she
might have carried 100 people during her
best trip, but that is an outside figure to
an estimate Of the business done by her.
She seemed to catch a class OF people
who wished TO avoid the great crowds in
the Rosalie and Alvira, and who were not
willing to patronize the line of the South
ern Pacific road, and from their point of
vantage they watched with interest the
hundreds OF people who were constantly
coming and going to and from the docks
OF the busy steamers.
Little effort was made by the Barton to
obtain passengers, her manager seeming
content TO take what need of patronage
came his way without any very urgent
solicitation, and her total list for the day
would not exceed 600 people.

THE CARS WERE MOVING.
Two More Victims of "More Haste,
Less Speed"


Edward Murphy, blacksmith, living at
914h Harrison street, was quite severely
injured in an accident on the San Mateo
electric line at Ocean View about o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
The car was crowded and Murphy was
standing on the step. holding on to one of
the guards. and as the car stopped at
Ocean View station he stepped 10 the
ground and waited for the car TO start
forward again before he attempted to
board it.s
The car was moving quite rapidly when
he did so, and he was either jostled off,
owing to the crowd in the car, or else
missed his footing and was thrown to the
ground, striking his head on the step and
intilctiug painful scalp wound.
Murphy was taken to the City and
County Hospital, where his injuries were
attended to.
Thomas j. Wilson. a plasterer, residing
at 26O4 Union street, is nursing a badly
sprained ankle. which is the result of his
jun ping from from a moving Fiflh-street

BLUE SUNDAY FOR THE OCTOPUS.

she carried 102 people. These were the
which she carried over 100 passengers.
On her last trip from this city TO Oakland
she had 81 souls on her decks who had
paid their passage. IL IS fact that the
employees Of the Southern Pacific road feel
kindly toward the Davie line. Many of
hem were passengers on those boats yes
terday and evinced lively interest in the
progress of the warfare. 1t was one Of
them who called a reporters attention TO
the fact that the Alameda owed many Of
her passengers to the overflow from the
Rosalie and Alvira.
At the Alameda dock but a few strag-
glers were noticeable. and these were
present, apparently with but few excep.
tions, TO count the few people who came
and went in the lonesome craft. 1t is a
fair estimate to allow the Alameda an
average of rs people for each trip. The
five round trips made during the day
would foot up total of 750 persons, all
told. who took passage on this line. One
passenger at least on the Alameda felt
called upon to explain the cause of his
crossing the bay by the Southern Pacific
line. He told the few people on the dock
that he had bought ticket to cross on
the Rosalie but found her so crowded that
he concluded 10 try the Alameda, and he
was still apologizing for what he seemed
to think was an offense against humanity
when the reporter left the dock.
1t was day of double disappointment
to the Southern Pacific in that the mani
fest displeasure of the people was so no.
ticeably visited apon the company. and,
secondly. the record of the Alameda for
the day must have footed up loss finan-
cially. That the company was disgusted

was thrown violently to the ground at
Broadway and Seventh street.
The young man is plucky and athletic,
but nver-estimated his ability in trying to
alight from Southern Pacific train at the
rate they run on Seventh street. When
the dust OF the rapidly receding flyer had
somewhat cleared away young Brazil was
discovered lying stretched out at the side
of the track.
A crowd gathered at once about him,
and willing hands lifted him up and helped
him to his feet. 1t was feared that his in
juries were of a most serious nature, so
blackened was he with dirt and covered
with blood. He was able to walk, how
ever, and with some assistance was taken
to the Receiving Hospital.
The physician in charge einvestigated his
injuries, aud when the blood had been
washed from his face the right eye was
found closed with deep decorations of the

fortune that he had escaped without
having had it put out altogether

The above figures show how the South
ern Pacific Company was hurt yester-
day. They have to be estimated (and the
estimates are extremely conservativr)
for the rush OF passengers was so great
that it W as impossible late last night for
the officers of the Davie Ferry Company
to figure up the returns from ticket
sell ers. at that hour Secretary Bassett
had n buahsl basket full of tickets still
to be counted and more to come in. OF
fhs 20, 900 to cross by the Davfe Ferry
at least $4,000 would have gone over
the bay and back in any case. Few COM
muters travel on Sunday, aud not more
than ono two hundred went by this

been compelled to take the Southern
