glad to aid these gentlemen in anyway
possible against the attempts of the rail-
road or any one else to close public
thoroughfare in the city OF Oakland.
Again let me say that any assertion or
report that the May or or the Council have
in way directly or Indirectly tried to sus-
tain the railroad company as against
Messrs. Forth and Kendall are absolutely
and entirely untrue"
"Why do not the city authorities inter-
fere in this matter?"
GAS / understand il, Mr.. Forth has al
ready been arrested for contempt of court,
and when that proceeding comes to trial
Mr.. Forth will undoubtedly prove that
the street is an open thoroughfare. Then
the railroad company will not dare put up
its fence and the street will remain open.
The only thing the city could do would be
To bring suit 10 esta blish the same fact,
which Mr.. Forth can do much quicker
than the city can.
I'm the meantime IL / can In any way
prevent the railroad from erecting fence
across Castro street you can rest assured
that il will be done with the same prompti-
tude and firmness that characterized the
pulling down of the fence at the foot of
Broadway. l know that the Council feels
exactly as do in this matter"

and expressed themselves in the same tone

The morning call., 1893-09-30

Oakland won grand victory last night.
True. it was only a fence that was torn
down, but the fence represented whole
3: lot.
It was an emblematic fence: it stood for
wrong. for blind greed. for years and years
Of heavy oppression, patiently endured.
- Three times was that emblematic en-
croaehment-on the liberties of the people
set up and. three times did determined
people tear it down. The last time ten
thousand people witnessed its demolition.
The people cheered and laughed, but un-
.derneath all the gOod-natured surface
there was current of cold, deadly earn
estness of purpose.
The spirit of revolt against oppression is
abroad in Oakland. 1t manifested itself
yesterday in the assembling of thousands
of citizens. who without parley, proceeded
to assert their rights.
The water front was the scene of battle.
A fence on Castro street shutting out FRS
street traffic from the water front was the
..casus belh This fence was recently
erected by one Bishop, acting for the
waterfront company. which is the
Southern Pacific. II has been torn down
by. representatives of the people. Thus
the issue is a clear One-between the
people and the Southern Pacific.
-. Themunicipal and executive heads of
the government. Mayor Pardee and Chief
!. 0tPolice SchafeT, both uphold the people
" in their action. They deprecate and will
prevent by every means in their power any
personal violence, but cordially indOrse
the peoples title to assert their lust rights.
IF l had my way about it." said the
Mayor Quietly, 1.-The people could amuse
themselves by pulling down the fence as
often as they pleased, as the railroad COM
pany could appeal to the courts"
al will not interfere with the removal of
the fence, unless it leads 10 personal con-
/ flict," is the Official dictum of Chief
Schafer.
= No incident in years has indicated more
clearly he>irritated temper of the people.
" Last March they rose up against railroad
rule and elected representatives who were
expected to maintain their rights. On
every hand the people find obstacles to
their just purpose. Where it is possible
they resort to the slow machinery OF the
Jaw 20 remove these obstacles.
But when, barrier is erected across a
public street patience ceases to be virtue
They argue that Broadway would be block
+ AIDED next, or that the Southern Pacific
would proceed to nail up every citizens
front door. What wonder, then, that this
Castro-street barricade was ruthlessly torn
down yesterday?
By the latest accounts thu railroad com.
pany has reconsidered its action and will
counsel against withstandng the will OF
the people by rebuilding the fence.
This spirit Of revolt against oppression
Is critical thing to oppose, and the South.
ern Pacific knows it.
The morning call., 1893-09-30
INCIDENTS OF THE NIGHT

When the crowd was waiting at tho foot
of Castro-slreet last evening for the signal
of attack train belonging to the Southern
Pacific local system was heard approach
ing. Owing TO the thronged condition of
the track at the foot of First street there
was some danger of accidents, and certain
of the assemblage determined 10 avert il.
A red flag was secured. and just before
the locomotive reached the crossing it was
tagged and successfully brought to a
standstill. Then the crowd contented
itself with jeering the engineer aud train
men, who appeared paralyzed by the ACCT
dent. AT last, when the track was quite
clear of pedestrians. the train was suffered
to 60 on its way.
Chief of Police Schafer made his an
pearance as the immense sea of pao.la
was pouring into the gulf formed by First
and Castro streets. His arrival was the
signal OF demonstration. Some one pro-
posed Three cheers for the Chief of
Police" and the resultant noise ought In

1t was a law-abidlng attendance at thai

Chief knew II, for he smiled grimly at the

BRIGHT AND EARLY.

The fence across First street, near the
foot of Castro, was torn down on Wednes-
day by 300 men, who claimed it was an
obstruction.
Yesterday morning. bright and early, a
gang of men appeared on the scene, and
protected by the early hour-it was not 8
A. M.-and by line of faIcars. proceeded
to erect the fence again. The work was
carefully done, the posts being all reset
and the planks nailed to them securely.
A Deputy Sheriff, by request of The rail
road people, was in attendance during the
re-erecting process to protect the men if
necessary.
Very warily these men worked. They
were hired by an individual having the
great railroad company behind, they
knew. but sill as they reached for a plank
they glanced timidly over their shoulder.
and as they got ready to lamp the ground
round post they liked to have some one
around to look out behind them.
By A. NJ. the work was completed and
the railroad gang withdrew.
About o'clock the steam whistle of the
Pacific Coast Lumber and Mill Company
works began to blow and kept on blowing.
The Fire Department thought it was fire
at first, but speedily found out its mistake.
1t was merely an explosion OF the pent up
feeling of injustice, and five hun bred people
rallied to the scene.
One of the first to appear was one VOL
sey, an agent of Taylor, who claims some
of the fenced-in land under title from the
railroad people. BE endeavored to stem
the popular feeling by protestations, but
he might just as well have tried to stem
Niagara with a tin whistle. Some facetious
wag showed him rope and asked him
how he fancied himself adorning one
end of it, Wolsey concluded he was too
numerous. and departed quickly without
announcing his destination.
Then the 500 removed the offending
fence. They just seemed to touch it and
it fell down. Perhaps 1t knew 1t had no
right there. Anyway, boards, posts and
all disappeared in miraculously short or
der.
The removal OF that fence represented q
principle to the people. 1t was some
thing which went against their principles
in a general way. Therefore they re-

AFTER-ENTHUSIASM.

When the crowd of fence-pullers had
once become heated and wound up 10 their
work there was likelihood that nothing
would content them but TO pull down
every fence that shut off the Oakland
water front from the people.
The company with the long rope, after II
had deposited the Castro-street gate in the
corporation yards. proceeded down Wash
ingtun street toward Grove. where they
proposed to tear down another fence.
Here they were checked by the police.
who claimed that it belonged to the Oak
land Gas and Light Company.
For moment the party held off and
then proceeded down toward Harrison
street and Broadway, vowing that they
struction in Oakland.
The mems blood was up. The police
were ali armed, and fear was expressed by
some of the Councilmen encountered that
riot and bloodshed might ensue.
The crowd was also deferred from touch
ing the fence at the foot of Grove street
next adjoining the Oakland Gas CON-
pany's building by the assurance aires Gy
given by the gas company that 1t was will
ing to take the fence down when the city
ordered IL.
The people were ready for almost any,
thing. Some hotheads in the crowd began
throwing rocks at the police, and Eve boys
were arrested. The prompt action of the
police in the matter had its effect on the
crowd, and Police Captain Wilson soon
secured the rope which they intended using
on the fence, and this rather broke the
more rebeilious spirits.
There was talk of tearing down the
Harrison and Alice street fences, and also
moving the Oak and Market street sta
tion-house, but it amounted to nothing
more than talk.
At one time a railroad man in the crowd
gave his opinion in the matter and the
crowd was Oh him in minute and gave
him terrible drubbing. II is stated that he
had pulled pistol. and this it was that
irritatrd the crowd.
At midnight all was quiet. The crowd
had dispersed and Chief Schafer was of
the opinion that the railroad company
will not again attempt to put up the OBJ
noxiOus fence. If it does, "well," as a
man remarked. steam is still up at Ken
dalPs mill and the whistle will blow"
1t is reported that Jerry O'CnnnOr OF
Fifth street, the man who had his foot
crushed by the big gate the first night the
fence was pulled down. has had his foot
amputated
