Unless the Supreme Court reverses the
decision of Judge Ellsworth rendered
to-day, the electric road to Livermore will
be built by E. P. Vandercook and not by
A. D. Thomson.
The writ of mandamus asked for by
Thomson compelling the Supervisors to
award him the franchise was argued before
Judge Ellsworth. Thomson declared THAT
its bid was the largest and therefore should
have been accepted.
The court heard the argument and then
criticized the manner in which franchises
are awarded and the loose method OF draw
ing up ordinances. He remarked that it
was practically an impossibility to deter
mine which bid would yield the greater in
come to the county for the reason that
there appeared to be no definite require
ment as To the number of trips to be run
and the operation of the road. 1t would
be possible that the less percentage would
WELD the greater income. AS a matter of
fact in most cases in the past the franchises
and the conditions have been those pre-
pared by the attorneys for the applicants.
After hearing further argument the
court denied the writ on two grounds:
First-The statute recognized cash bid
and no other. Second-The board had a
discretionary power in the matter so the
writ would not lie. The attorney for
Thomson gave notice of appeal.

ANOTHER REBELL|OUS SUE
Drama Played Yesterday at
the Baroteau Home in
Oakland.
Husband and Wife Are Reunited
and DR.. Hatch Is in
jail.

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,
908 Broadway, August IA.
While "The Case of Rebellious Susan"
was being played at the Marlborough a
little drama was being enacted at the
Baroteau home on Market street that con-
tanned many features of the popular farce.
"Baby" O'Connell, ex-poundmaster and
would-be political boss, served paper on
Mrs. A. A. Baroteau this afternoon, and,
as the document contained serious charges
against her and implicated DR.. Junius l..
Hatch, q sensational finale may be ex-
pected.
For more than three months DR.. Hatch
has been posing as the friend of Mrs. Baro-
teau, who, he said, was a prosecuted
woman He admitted advising her to OBJ
tain divorce.
As he would persistently visit the house
Mr.. Baroteau had Hatch arrested for dis
turbing his peace. The doctor was found
guilty and sentence was suspended, but as
the doctor did not obey the courts order
and produce fine of $50, Hatch was re-
arrested yesterday. Now that he is in
prison Baroteau may prefer more serious
charges against him.
The attempt on the part of outsiders to
bring about a divorce between Mr.. and
Mrs. Baroteau is, according to the latter, a
most remarkable interference on the part
of DR.. Hatch and private detective. Mr.
Baroteau was asked last night what all the
trouble was about.
81 don't care about discussing my family
affairs, he said, "but l must protect my
self DIR. Hatch is very dangerous
mischief-maker and has tried to establish
an acquaintance with my wife, which she
is in no way anxious to bring about. My
wife and l entered into an entirely AMIGA
BILE agreement to-day, and we find that all
our troubles have been caused by others.
The paper which Baby O'Connell served
on my wife to-day proved to be boom
erang. Instead of completing our separa-
ton it has brought us together.
1.-The document was statement made by
Hatch that contained such awful charges
that they overreached their mark, and in
stead of paying any attention to it she
brought it to me. [ saw O'Connen and
threatened him this afternoon that if he
attempted to serve any more papers he
would take the consequences. O'Connell
told me he was employed by the Govern
ment as a secret service agent, but could
get no satisfaction from him as to who en-
pioyed him in this case. 1t has developed
into a simple case of eXtortion.
CDR. Hatch has been to our house and
rung the bell even since he was arrested
the first time, and my wife was so angry
that she threatened to treat him to hot
water from an upper story if he came
again."
The last act of the local Cease of Rebel
lious Susan" ends very dramatically. Hus-
band and wife are reconciled; both are
anxious to get even with Baby O'Connell,
and DR.. Hatch is in jail.

The regular monthly meeting of the board OF
trustees of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton was held last evening. The secretary,
Noel n. Jacks, presented his report for the
months OF June and July, from which the fol-
lowing extracts are taken:
In our physical department there is an &C
tivity that is most interesting and encouraging.
The interest has been about equally divided
between indoor and outdoor work. Our ath-
letic team is composed of some splendid fell
lows that are doing good work under Mr..
Brooks management, and we believe they
would do credit 10 a much larger institution
than ours. AT the recent feld-day sports in
Stockton our men won sixteen points in the
various events. At the association Pentathlon
contest in San Francisco a few days ago our
team won all the leading places. We now have
a team in training for the State Association
meet to be held in Los Angeles at the time OF
our annual convention in October.
From May l to August ! we have received
seventy-tive members. A large addition is con-
fidently looked for as the fall work opens up.
There is a daily use of the building by young
men that is much larger than one year ago
In the two months other work done includes
employment found for eleven young men; six
have been directed TO good homes for boarding
or lodging; three sick young men have been

held; sections meetings of the various depart
ments have been held TO plan for future work
two visits have been made by delegations from
our membership TO other associations TO aid in

Football Manager Herbert
Lang Talks About the
Coming Season.
A Report That the System OF Ac-
credited Schools Is to Be
Changed.

Herbert Lang, university football man.
ager for the coming season, said yesterday
that the present outlook for plenty of good
men from which to select team is not at
all unfavorable. 1--WE are unable" said
he, ''to speak with absolute certainty In
regard to the men we will have to rely
upon, as things at the university are in
such an unsettled condition just now, it
being the opening of the term, but we do
expect most of the old men back, and also
that some of the big freshmen will prove
to be as good as they look.
1--WE intend to pursue much milder
course this year in the matter OF training
for the big game, since we have learned by
experience that it does not pay to COM
mence the heavy smashing field work too
early in the season.
Last year q number of our best men were
badly disabled long before the Thanksgiv-
ing game, through too hard practicing on
the line. It is our intention to put the
football field into much better condition
this year than it has ever been in before bv
blowing deep and filling each furrow with
manure and straw SO as to make the
ground springy. Heretofore the ground
has been so hard that it was exceedingly
rough on the men to fall on the ball. With
keep the men in better trim up to the day
of the contest than has been the case in
the three past seasons"
No More Accredited Schools.
Some of the freshmen who have been ad-
mitted to the university from accredited
schools were congratulating themselves
yesterday upon the fact that they have
been admitted without examinations since
rumor had 1T that there will be but few or
even no schools accredited to the univer-
slty next year. This report is said to have
come from one Of the board of regents, and
that the question was so decided by the
board at the meeting previous to the last
on account of the lack of funds to pay the
expenses OF professors who have been ac-
cuStomed to examine the various schools
each year, and that by establishing this
new system the standard of the university
would be raised beyond its present status.
Upon questioning some of the authorl-
ties with regard to the matter, 1t was re-
ported that the regents had at least made
no provision in the years budget Tor the
payment of the expense entailed by the
examiners, and that it was understood that
should there then be a desire for any ac-
credited schools. those detailed for exam
ming such should bear their own expenses.

Assessments.

Haywards' Trustees Refuse to Reduce
Assessments.
The Town Trustees sat this afternoon
as Board of Equalization. The Town
Assessor adopted the estimates of values
made by Assessor Dalton, and the Hay
wards electric line applied for reductions.
There were present Attorney G. w. Reed,
H. W. Meek and a. L. Stone, representing
the company's interests. The Town AS
SCISSOR had Mr.. Dalton present to help him
out.
The tracks, poles, wires, etc., of the COM
pany were assessed at $4,000, while it was
claimed that the actual cash value did not
exceed $3024 64. The franchise was as
sessed at $4,000, while the company valued
ii at only $500. The company also run a
little horsecar line from the Haywards
Hotel to the Southern Pacific depot. This
was assessed at $4,000, with an additional
$1,000 for the franchise. The company
valued the roadbed and rolling-stock al
$1150 and the franchise at 500.
A. L. Stone, secretary of the company,
claimed they had been assessed for two
horses which they did not own. The
board reduced the assessment to 81 on this
account and approved the rest unani-
mously. The citizens are eleted over this
as it will give an increased income to the
town without increasing the tax rate.

The Immense Structure Is Now Almost
Ready for Use.

Inc Immense structure Is NOW Almost
Ready for Use.
The new bunkers erected at West Oak
land to facilitate the loading of engines
are about completed, and are the first of
the kind erected on this coast. 1t is ex-
pected the carpenters will be through by
Saturday. The rails will then have to be
laid and it will be ready for use. In the
immense bunker, which is 200 feet long
40 feet high, and the approach. which is
about 1000 feet long, 100000 feet of lumber
were used. The capacity of the bunker is
1000 tons.
This is the first bunker of the kind on
this coast and the manner in which it is to
be used is very interesting. The engine
with several cars of coal will start from
the long wharf and run up the gradual
approach until it has risen forty feet and
then the cars will deposit the coal in the
bunker. The engine will run alongside
and load from chutes. The operation will
take but couple of minutes and save all
the handling that has been done in the
past.

REDUCED ALL SALARIES,
ST. Paul'S VeSter Choir Came
Near Being Entirely
Abolished.
From Pastor to Organ Blower
All Feel the Stroke OF
Economy.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,(
908 Broadway, August IA.


90S Broadway, August Ia.
Somewhat of surprise has been created
in church circles when it became known
to-day that the wealthy St. PauPs Epis-
copal Church had been forced to practice
rigid economy in order to keep within its
income. For long time it has been
known that the receipts have been falling
off, but it was not anticipated that reduc-
ton of salaries would be rendered neces-
sary. This, however has proved to be the
case, and, to use the language of one of its
officers, every one connected with the
church. from rector to organ-biower has
suffered cut in salary. Just how much
cut has been made is not exactly known
outside the officials and the vestrymen,
but it is said to average about 20 per cent.
About two years ago, after great exertlon
on the part of the choirmaSter and organ
list, vested boy choir was established,
and the music since that time has been as
fine as any on either side of the bay. This
beautiful choir was almost abolished at
the meeting when the reductions were de-
cided upon. There was only one earnest
opponent to its abolition, and his opposi-
ton saved the choir. 1t will be run in
future with a largely reduced approprla-
ton, and this will necessitete curtail-
ment that will greatly impair its efficiency.
Rev. Robert Richie, DID,, pastor of st.
PauPs, IS one OF the most popular anu
learned pastors of Oakland and has done
a great deal toward building up the con-
gregation and general regret is expressed
that it has been necessary to curtall his
salary after so many years of good and
faithful service. Many of the wealthiest
families in Oakland subscribe for pews in
ST. Paul's, but during the past two years a
few members have transferred their seats
to st. Andrews and this has in some meas
,,ra ballad m roduca the rovanua Duripp

Paul's did very well, but the necessity for
economy was not rendered imperative till

SNOW GIVES IN.
He VIII Not Assess the Seventh-St
Local Line.

He VIII Not Assess the Seyenth-Street
Local Line.
City Assessor Snow has formed an opin-
ion that agrees with that of the "solid
four" Supervisors and Mr.. Morehouse, and
says he will not assess the Seventh street
local line. The City Council recently de-
MED petition of the railroad company for
a reduction from $677, 900 to $40, and it was
understood that the assessment should
stand. Now Mr.. Snow has changed his
opinion and says he is sure the railroad
would not pay its taxes if he should assess
it, as it was assessed by the State Board as
part of the general system.
If the railroad should refuse to pay its
taxes Mr.. Snow says the city would be
obliged to levy on the road for delinquency,
and the litigation that would ensue would
be costly The action of the Assessor re-
duces the tax receipts $8S01 on a levy
of 81 30
