OAKLAND WATER FRONT.
Decision Rendered Yesterday IL
Favor of the City.

Decision Rendered Yesterday in
Favor of the City.
Oakland, Cal, July 16.-Superior
Judge Ogden today rendered a decision
in favor of the city in the famous case
of the City of Oakland against the
Water Front company, otherwise the
Southern Pacific Railroad company
involving the title to eleven. millions of
water front, valued at many millions of
dollars, and which has been practi-
cally in dispute for forty years. The
decision does not pass directly on the
title of the third parties holding small
portions, bought in good faith from
the Water Front company and i'm
proved.
The decision recites at length the
history of the case, giving details as
to the granting of the title by the first
board of trustees down to Horace
Carpenter, and by him to the Water
front company; the efforts since made
by the city to recover possession of
the property; the acts of the legisla-
ture in connection with the case; the
hearing of the decision by the United
States Supreme Court Of the Chicago
water front case, etc.
When the Chicago decision was an
nounced litigation was in progress be-
fore the entire number Of superior
judges of this country affecting a
small portion Of the water front, where
private individuals occupying were
sued by the Water Front company to
recover possession. The judges, sit
ting in bank, at once declared that the
Water Front company had no title to
the land in Oakland in that case
Judge Ogden refers to the decision
then reached and says that he fully
agrees with it, but that he reaches the
same conclusion by a different process
of reasoning in the present case. The
court holds that the city cannot take
possession of the wharves built by the
railroad company without paying for
the improvements
The case is one of the utmost i'm
portance to Oakland, as possession of
the property by the railroad company
has retarded improvements thereon.
the latter refusing to do anything on
account of the suits pending or
threatened suits by the city to secure
the property

TUCSON, Ariz., July 16.-James A
Crowley, one of the Americans who
was held up in the recent robbery of
IRE Nacasari stage IN Sonora, Mex,
arrived here today. Mr.. Crowley
states that ne, with Edward Wood
ruff, paymaster of the Nacasari Min
ing company, was returning from e.
Paso with money to pay the miners,
and Mexican named Moreno, the
driver of the stage, were ambushed by
Fhree men on the road near Cochuta.
Crowley was forced into the brush
and robbed but Woodruff escaped to
a neighboring ranch. The robbers,
however, secured WoodrufFs valise,
which contained $1,000 in Mexican
money and 5000 in American gold.
The driver, who whipped UP his team
ana tried tc escape was shot dead
The robbie " was reported to the
authorities, and in twelve DAYS, by
the direction of the governor of
Sonora, the president of Frontreras,
who was found to be implicated III the
robbery. was placed under arrest
ThiS was followed shortly afterward
by the arrest Of Tribolet, his fore
NiAcNA4g anu InO OlllGlS u Ills SIllr
ployees. The next morning they were
taken by Major Moldoro, one Of the
police, about six miles in the direc-
tion Of dhe scene of the robbery and
there shot by the roadside. Fifteen
hundred dollars of the stolen money
was found in the house of T'rtbolet.
The man who robbed Crowley in the
brush escaped, but was subsequently
caught and executed in the presence
of the whole town OF Oposura, who
turned out to see him shot. The
authorities are said to have the
names of about forty men who were
more or less implicated in the rob
berry, and as they are scattered all
over the country to avoid arrest the
danger to travel is largely increased.

not legislate them out of the habit,
either. They undervalued gold. The
gold dollar was worth more Under the
first mintage than the silver dollar,
consequently we did have, and he is
right about it, the silver standard in this
country up to 1884. Legally, man
could pay any debt by rendering the
ten units of value in the gold coin,
but people did not tender it because
the silver dollar was the cheapest;
they could get ten silver dollars for
less labor, less everything, than they
could for gold, consequently the gold
left the country
4 Few Facts.
Mr.. Harvey-'I want now to cali
the attention of the gentleman to
the fact that for several years our
side has claimed that silver was fixed
in 1892 as the unit of value, con-
tinuing tc 1873, as strenuously denied
by the other side, TO such an extent
that they went TO the trouble in this
city of getting an eX-judge, an asso-
ciate of bankers, to render an ex-
parte opinion that silver was not
fixed by the act of 1892 as the unit of
values, and telegraphed that opinion
all over the country, and professor
in a university, built with a money
lenders capital, wrote articles pub
lished in the Times-Herald, denying
that silver was made the unit of
value in 1892, and these articles were
copied in the papers all over the
country. And now we come face to
face with the other side, where they
do not dare to mislead, and in the
first Joint debate on the question in
this controversy they are forced by
truth to admit that 37119 grains of sill
yer was fixed as the unit of value,
Qoud applause), by the act of 1892 and
remained such to 1873.
Horr Is Ratified.
Mr.. .Horr-''Who is admitting that?''

bate thus far will show that Mr.. Horr
has admitted it,

posed of today. I am not through with
it, and as he has taken so much time
re-coined the gold instead of the silver
on a silver basis and they did. not in
tend to disturb the relation of money
to the business of the country. Gold
had not been used, and they purposed
to put the gold dollar SO that it would
equal the silver dollar-the one we had
been using and the one under which
contracts had been made; and so they
resolved to cut down the gold dollar
to make it even with the one the peo-
pie had been using-that is the reason
and the only reason
