A MADMAN'S ACT.
Physicians Have a Des=
perate Struggle.
Crazy Joseph Kenkopf Nearly Kills
Another Patient and Fights
Hard Battle for Life.

A terrible hand to-hand conflict between
raving maniac and physicians occurred
at the City and County Hospital yesterday
morning.
The insane man was Joseph Kenkopf
patient, who made desperate onslaught
upon another patient.
During the melee Hinch Lue ben was
terribly beaten and pandemonium rpigned
for a short time. The latter was seriously
injured.
Kenkopf lives in the Potrero. Several
years ago he was Woodworking laborer,
but latery his actions became queer and
il became current gossip among his neigh
bors on Kentucky street. where he lived,
that he was a little off.
Yesterday morning Kenkopf applied at
the hospital in his usual way for treat
ment. He explained to the Superniend-
ent. DR.. Titus, that his feet were very sore.
and he desired medicine. To humor the
man DR.. Titus told him to sit in the recep-
tion-room until he could attend to him.
Luebben was told to wait In the same
room, and took seat not far from Ken
kOpf, little imagining the terrible struggle
to follow.
Kenkopf eyed the new arrival with q
scowl and with the innate cunning of a
diseased mind, stealthily went to the
weapon with which TO kill his innocent
victim.
All the instruments had, however, been
removed and the only thing in the shape
OF a weapon he could find was an impro-
vised crutch, consisting of a heavy piece
of wood with a crosspiece fitting the
shoulder of the patient owning 1t.
Kenkopf cunningly hid the crntch be-
hind his back, aud approaching the unsus-
picious Luebbin. remarked: Those doc
tors are slow with the medicine for my
foot"
"Ob, don't know" replied the other
but the words were scarcely out of his
mouth before Kenkopf shouted. You
don't, ehv' and with den0niacal yell at
tackled the other.
With madman's frenzy he rained blow
after blow on the defenseless body of his
victim, who tried to run away. The mad
man followed him and finally struck him a
terrible blow over the head, telling him 10
the ground.
Luebben's cries for help quickly brought
DR.. Titus. the Superintendent, and Resi-
dent Physician Mays, wth several other
hospital attaches, to the scene.
Kenkopf took refuge in the operating
room and held the attaches at bay for
nearly half az hour before he could be dis
armed by combined onslaught, He was
subdued after a hard battle and securely
strapped ana c0nnneQ until the patrol
wagon from the Seventeenth-stree Police
station arrived 10 convey him to the Home
of the Inebriates.
Luebbeh was picked up in a semi
conscious condition. He had been terribly
beaten about the head by his insane as
sailant His right ear was entirely cnt
in two by blow from the heavy crutcb.
and lie also sustains several ugly SCALP
wounds. His injuries are not dangerous,
however.
Several Of the hospital attaches also
have sundry COMMISSIONS about the body
as evidence of their encounter with the in
sane man and kenkopf will be taken be-
fore the Insanity Commission for examina-
ton to-day

DAVE is JOYFUL.
Great Crowds PatrOniZe
His Ferry.
OAKLAND'S FRONT VIGILANT.
The Rosalie Carries Six Thousand Pas
sengers-Pleasures at Ell Campo
and Other Places.

"Say, what do you think OF this for a
crowd?"
John l.. Davie, opponent of monopolies
and owner of an opposition Oakland ferry,
it was. who spoke.
The time was o'clock yesterday after
noon, aad the crowd referred to was a
surging mass Of people, crushing and haul
ing along Mission.street wharf in an en-
deavor to crowd onto the Rosaie.
The opposition ferry did great bust
ness, and carried about two-thirds Of the
people who wanted to cross the bay.
Six thousand is the number who patron.
lied the new line. and every one seemed
satisfied and expressed determination to
continue using the Rosaie whenever it be-
came necessary to cross the bay.
The rush began with the first boat in
the morning and did not cease once during
the day. Hundreds of people loitered
about the dock for nearly an hour at a
time and allowed several OF the other
boats TO 90 just in order to help the 0pp0-
sition along.
There is a great lack Of accommodations
where the Rosalie docks on this side. but
it is not going to remain long so. Every
thing possible is going to be done to make
things as comfortable and agreeable as
possible.
the first improvement will be the erec-
ton of some more ticket offices and num-
Der of benches. upon which those who are
waiting may rest.
Additional ticket Offices are an absolute
necessity, not only for the accommodation
of passengers, but also In order to assure
the safety OF the ticket agents.
Several times yesterday the crushing
crowds nearly demolished the box now
doing service and at one time it was so
nearly toppled into the bay that the agent
deemed 1t advisa Bile to gather up coin and
tickets and escape.
On the Oakland side of the bay the crush
bound to make the new ferry go, and it
turned ou: in full force to give expression
to lis determin alton.
1t was the same way down at the Frank
Silva's berth.
There a great crowd gathered every
boat time and Manager McGOvern said
hat his company was doing a most salts
factory business.
why, we can make money by landing
freight alone" he exclaimed. 80, of
course, when we al e crowded with passen-
gers we feel greatly encouraged"
In the vicinity of the Southern Pacifc's
ferry Office no expressions OF joy were to
be heard. The oppostions are cutting
away into their travel
At no time yesterday was there crowd
clamOring for tickets or crushing In the
waiting-rooms. and to persons who fire.
Quenlly cross the bay this fact proves
great deal.
Ferries running in other directions car
ried their share OF people during the day.

T,HORROLD DIED.
The Captain Was Killed
by a Needle.
The Mariner Received His Mortal
Wound While Playing With
His Daughter.

Captain Charles W. Thorrold, master
aud owner Of the tug Ethel and Marion
died al his residence. 9l5 Battery street. al
2 O'Clock yesterday morning. Captain
Thorrold was a rugged seaman nearly A
years OF age, who had many friends among
the ship-Owners of the city. His death was
caused in way that is probably unparal-
leled. 1t was the prick Of needle in his
right hand that sent the captain into the
valley OF the shadow.
CAPTAIN Thorrod had five children, the
youngest of whom is Is months old. The
Oldest is n pretty girl of IA. and it was
while celebrating the last anniversary of
her birth that he received the wound that
caused his death. He was playing with
that he would slap her once for every year
she had lived. aud once for good luck.
The little girl ran away from him. but
he caught her and proceeded to carry out
his purpose. She placed her hands behind
her. IN one 81 which, was a long darning
for the first pat and it passed through the
fieshy part of the member.
The captain pulled the needle out, and
thinking that the wound was of little &C.
count. went to his tug. That was two
weeks ago. His hand began to swell and
the wound became very painful.
A poultice was applied, but it gave the
sufferer no relief. and on Tuesday last he
took to his bed and called surgeon The
medical man found his patients arm
swelled to an extraordinary size, and per-
formed an operation which gave no relief.
DR.. Morse was called to see the captain on
Friday afternoon, and no decided that
blood poisoning had set in.
Amputation of the arm in his opinion
was the only thing that would save the
stricken mariner. and on the afternoon Of
the next day the arm was amputated. The
amputation of the mem Der apparently did
not have the desired effect, for Thorrold
continued to suffer intensely until the hour
Of his death.
Captain ThorroId was an ex-Deputy
United States Shipping Commissioner
Some time ago an attempt was made to
wreck his vessel by some miscreant. who
placed dynamite bomb GA the top of the
cylinder.

A Dangerous Fire on a Government
Island.
A lot of soldiers were converted into
fremen for short time Yesterday, A
grass fire started on Angel Island and for a
while the boys were kept working in
lively manner in order to prevent it from

Every year boating parties from Tiburon

The blaze of yesterday was the hottest
one that has as yet been experienced. 1t
burned away for several hours, all the
time crawling nearer and nearer to build

At first an attempt was made TO eXtin-
tinguiSh it with buckets OF water. but u
failed. Then wet blankets were tried.
and not until a deep ditch had been cut
and either side packed with them did they
prove at all serviceable.
During the time of the fire excitement
along the city front was at fever heat, and
it was generally supposed that Sausallto or
Tiburon was again being wiped out.
Smoke rolled up in huge volumes and
virtually shut out the view OF the bay
shore on the northern and eastern sides,
and 1t seemed TO become denseI every mo-
ment.
Even the tugboat owners began to fear
for the Marin shore towns aud sent boats
to the scene of the fire.
The real location of the blaze did not be-
come known In this city until evening.

great damage done was to the soldiers,

QUIET IN OAKLAND.
No Relaxation of Interest in the
Civic Struggle.

Last night-the third since the great up
rising against the Southern Pacfic-passed
quietly and without incident on the water
front. i.a-
Until late hour knots of watchers
stood around suspicious Of some move on
the part of the railroad company and
anxious to be on hand in case of an
emergency. A half dozen policemen
paced up and down over the wreck of the
company's rails and talked together in
whispers with eyes already shifting
toward the Alameda's slip. The men of
the Southern Pacific were equally watchful
and the engines Of the tug Rival throbbed
suIenly all might and the lights burned
brightly until morning as she lay moored
to the mudscows off the end of the wharf
A rumor had been circulated to the
effect that fence had been constructed by
the Southern Pacific similar to the one re-
moved by the city. and that this fence had
been loaded on cars and brought TO Oak
land on transfer boats to be rushed out
ana hastily erected at such q time as the
relaxed vigilance of the police should in
dictate as most favorable. The company
programme. as rum0red, was that the tug
Rival should tow the Alameda out at a
moments notice. and run the loaded trans
fer boat into the slip. where the fence
could be unlnaded. All day long such
move was anticipated anu watched Tor.
Large crowds with the leisure OF Sun
day on their hands spent most of the day
lettering about the front and examining
the scene OF Thursdays demonstration.
The Rival lay crosswise in the Alameda
slip establishing omplete blockade, aud
her officers were subjected to much chatting
and railing at the hands of the crowd.
The foot OF Broadway continued to be
the focal point of attraction until late at
night. Even as far along as2 in the morn
ing oilers hung about conversing with the
police and waiting with patience for the
movement that theybeleved could not be
long delayed.

LADIES' ENTRANCES.
What Prominent Saloon Men Think
of the Crusade.


A large number of the most prominent
selOon-keepers who have "ladies' en-
frances" attached to their places. were
seen by a representative of THE CALL
yesterday and questioned regarding their
views on closing the fatal traps set for
females of this city and known as ladies
entrances"
While number of the saloon men are
opposed to legislation in this quarter.
there are some who would be willing and
glad to submit to such an ordinance, and
will gladly fall in line and close before
any action is taken by the Supervisors, il
others will make the first advance toward
general reform.
Some of the more reasonable liquor
men admit that the downfall of many girls
and married women can be traced to the
side entrance; and, while they will not
consent to the closing of their particular
places. they grow eloquent in denouncing
back-door saloons in the resident portions
of the city.
There is no doubt but that If the move
is properly started among saoon-men
many of the leaders Will consent to close
their side and back entrances for women
without the assistance OF The law.

THE GOSPEL TENT.
Donald Ross Opens the Revival
Services.

Services were begun last night in the
gospel tent" which has been erected al
the corner of Hyde street and Broadway,
1t is proposed to hold revival services dur
ing the present week each evening, and
the service last night was the initial one
of the series.
The tent when filed will hold about 800
people. and last night there were pro badly
half that number present, a large percent
age being young people of both sexes.
While the seating accommodation is
fairly comfortable the singing-a promi-
nent and attractive feature of previous re-
vival services in this city-leaves much to
ba desired. This was the more noticeable
last night in the absence of an organ or
any instrument that might have sustained
the voices.
Donald Ross, the Scotch evangelist, will
be IN charge Of the services, and during
the week will receive support from other
of the city clergy. Last night he con-
the preliminary hymn and prayer he gave
very earnest and stirring address, taking
as his theme from Romans S :33. ut is God
that jnstifieth." MIR. Ross is simple and
direct IN his mode of address, and pos
sesses none of the peculiar traits of manner
mat nave made other evangelsts who have
visited the city popular. Speaking with a
decidedly Scotch accent, he INDUCES In 10
oratorical flights. little pathos. and seeks
to enforce the truth only by incidents
quoted from his own experience.
Some OF his sayings are quaint. 1.-THE
grace OF Christ" said he. docs not run in
the BLOOD" and he proceeded to instance
cases where godly parents had had most
ungOdly children. Continuing. he said
God justifiss freely and inspires one with
new life. The world ia trying to regener-
ate itself. and by education, culture and
refinement to make itself better. Well. it
might be engaged in doing something
worse. but. | tell you that it is not Coo s
way. and there is more need to-day for the
regenerating influence of God than at any
time during the last sixty years."
The address was brought to q close by
Mr.. Ross making powerful plea for all
present to embrace the salvation so freely
offered.
