A well-Known Character Testifies Be

For three days the Grand Jury has been
investigating the conduct of ex-Chief Of
Police Louis Schaffer while in office. To-
day a woman named Maude Lawrence
went before the jury to tell of an affair in
which she was arrested for disturbing tn e
peace of a prominent merchant about a
year ago as he was returning from church
with his wife. The charge against Miss
Lawrence was not pressed, and it is said a
certain amount of money was paid her to
get out of town.

John Kane and Tom Maloney, boys, sue
ceeded in making q very clever escape from
the City Prison early yesterday morning.
They made their exit through ventllator
III the top OF a wooden cell which they en-
larged and marched in freedom with the
dodgers who had been accommodated at
the prison for the night. They lay on the
top of the cell until the opportune time
arrived. When the dodgers were marched
out the boys slid down and unobserved
walked through the gate. 1t is thought
that some of the dodgers were accomphces
to the act, as the boys are very small In
stature and must have attracted some at
tention.
The detectives at once set to work to cap
ture the escapes. Within two hours Kane
was found at home enjoying as he told
the officer, the first square meal he had
had since he had been in prison. Malcney
was not found until last night.
The boys are under arrest for stealing a
horse and buggy, and when found the
animal was about dead from hard driving.

JOSEPH DORAN CONVICTED,
Outcome of the Second Liquor
Case Before Judge
James.
A Psychological Laboratory Josh
Men Suspended by the
Faculty.

BERKELEY, Nov. 1.-The second
Iiquo- case was tried before Judge James
last night, and Joseph Doran was found
guilty of violating the town ordinance.
Town Attorney Hayne and w. G. Whit
worth conducted the case for the people,
and NJ. C. Chapman of Oakland was attor-
nev for the defense. Marshal Lloyd, who
led the raid OF the illegitimate saloons, and
Deputy Marshals Rawson and Esmond
were called upon to testify for the prose
cution.
G. L. Colby of the university experiment
station testified that the samples taken
from the premises of Doran contained
liquor according to his analysis.
Attorney Chapman offered no testimony
and requested the court that in case his
client be adiudged guilty Judgment be
postponed until Saturday afternoon.
Judge James declared Doran guilty, with
the request for him to appear Saturday
afternoon for sentence.
Two Josh Men Suspended.
Literary Editor Steele and Business
Manager Robbins of "Josh" were in
formed to-day that the Academic Council
had decided, because of the personalities
which appeared IN the last number of the
comic journal, TO suspend each of them
for a time, Steele until the end of the
present term, and Robbins for one month.
The faculty claim in inficting punish
ment on these two men only, that one was
RESPONSIBLE for the appearance of the OBJ
jeCtOnable literary and art matter, and
that the other was accountable for the
cad" in which the name of Lieutenant
Winn was mentioned.
The entire staff would have doubtless
been suspended had not Steele and Rob-
bins assumed the entire responsibility for
the Objectionable features. According to
the constitution of Josh, " all literary and
art matter is supposed TO be presented to
the whole board, and passed upon before
going to print. it happened that at the
meeting set for the purpose of looking over
the material which was to be used in the
last number less than a quorum were pre- S.
ent, and so the meeting went over. Steele
assumed the responsibility Of issuing the
number.
The source of the entire difficulty seems
to have been through the matter apper.
tanning to the military department..
The students in general seem much dis
satisfied with the action of the faculty
claiming that the penalties imposed were
two severe.
Butterworth Comes Out.
Coach Butterworth donned his football
suit this afternoon for the first time al

he brought upon himself so much fame

mon last Sunday and the church has
decided to retain him permanently.
Last night being Halloween was con-
sidered a peculiarly appropriate time to
extend a hearty and generous welcome to
their new minister. a private meeting of
the members was held and it was decided
that the reception should take a novel
form and be a genuine "brownie and
spook" surprise. The idea was carried out
enthusiastically and was marked success,
and several pastors in Oakland hope that
the Asburv members have established a
precedent that may become common.
The first brownie to arrive was in the
form of q coal-dealer, who surprised the
pastors family by dumping load in his
cellar and presenting recelpted bill. A
little later another wagon stopped outside
the pastors home on Eighteenth street
and everything required to supply a gem
erous pantry was carried into the house to
the undisguised surprise OF Mr.. Mcknight
and his wife.
The next brownie brought letter to the
door in which was a bank check and a
happy little note stating that it was the
members part in the welcome that was to
be given the pastor as a Hallowe en- sur
prise.
he situation then dawned upon Mr..
Mcknight, and as the hours passed by and
one evidence of friendship after another
was left at the pastorate the newly elected
minister thought Oakland must be as near
heaven as any place he expects to find till
he bids earth farewell.
Last evening the members swooped
down on the pastors home, and for sew
eral hours the novel gathering did all in
its power to become acquainted with their
new pastor.
Rev. H. NJ. Mcknight has come from
Northern California, where he has been
residing for several years. He is a writer
/ of some repute, and was for several years
| agent of the Pacific Methodist College at
Santa Rosa. He is q graduate of Wander
bilt College, Nashville, Tenn.

UNION CARR PENTERS' WAGES
The Increase to Three Dollars
Yesterday Met With
Success.
Not Over Ten or a Dozen Workmen
Were Compelled to Leave Their
Work.

Three weeks ago the Carpenters and
Joiners Union in this City decided that
wages of So day minimum was none too
much for the members of the trade to de-
mand and the employers to pay. A few
days later the District Council issued an
order to that effect, the order to go into
effect November l.
Yesterday several thousand carpenters
formally announced to the contractors that
the union rate of So day must be paid,
although the contractors had been inform
alp apprised of what they might expect
Immediately after the decision of the Dis
trict Council.
Last evening several hundred mem bers of
Union No. % focked to their place of meet
ing, in ODD Fellows Hall, to learn how the
ediot had been received by the contractors.
Reports were highly gratifying. Con-
tractors, who for the past two years had
been paying all kinds of wages, gracefully
complied with the demand, and said:
'All right, boys. Go ahead"
The news was received with great ap-
plause, and the carpenters are now looking
forward to better times in their trade.
There were, however, five or six reports
not so pleasing. Some contractors refused
to pay the fixed rate and the carpenters
walked out. Four workmen left one job.
The other dissatisfied contractors were
working only two and three men apiece.
Several of those who walked out found
work in other places before the day was
over. 1t was believed that these con-
tractors will fall into line with the others
in short time, as they will not be able to
fill the vacant places, as no union men
will work for less than the fixed rate.
Union % Will probably increase its
initiation fee from 81 80 to $5. The ques-
ton will be discussed at the next meeting
ana a decision arrived at within two
weeks at most.
If this raise be made it will be the sec
ond within two months.
Seventeen members were initiated last
evening.

DOODY STILL HOLDS ON,
The Assistant Fire Chief
Defes the Councils
Power.
DAVIES PECULIAR MESSAGE.
The Matter May Determine the Legal.

Bah Officials.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL !

OAhLAND OFFlCE DAN Il RANC1SCO SALL,I
90S Broadway, Nov. /. !
Miles Doody, First Assistant of the Fire
Department, has refused to vacate his
office and this move will probably result
IN determining the legality of the Board OF
Public Works
Doody is somewhat sustained in his
position by the following paragraph from
the Mayors message accompanying the
approval of the ordinance, which reads
Upon investigation I find that the said
Office OF First Assistant Engineer has not
been created by ordinance, and therefore
1t appears that the passage of this ordi-
nance and the printing of the same is a
useless expense to the city, as it is the duty
OF the Board of Police and Fire Commits
sloners to declare the same vacant. Had
the board performed its duty at the time a
member of the said board introduced q
resolution declaring the position vacant all
the annoyance, time and expense would
have been avoided
The Commissioner who introduced the
resolution was Mayor Davie, and in his
communication he shows the marked dis
tlnctlon OF pralsing himself as an indi-
vldual while censuring the board col
lectively.
1he hrst assistant went on duty as usual
this morning. He said as the Council had
no right TO depose him it is very evident
that the matter will have to be submitted
for legal opinion to the City ATTORNEY.
City Attorney Peirsol is a Fire Commits
sloner, and Doody contends that should
he attempt to advise himself in this mat
ter and pass on his own acts he will enioin
him from doing so. Peirsol occupies a
very peculiar position in regard to Doodv.
1t is stated that previous to his election
Doody's friends promised to support Peir-
sol on condition that Peirsol should not
vote to legislate Doody out of office When
the resolution dismissing Doody was be-
fore the board Peirsol was excused from
voting at his own request. Davie voted
one way, Wilson another and the matter
dropped.
If Peirsol persists in keeping his promise
the situation ls the same now as it was
then, and there is nothing to indicate how
the matter will end, for it is hardly to be
conceived that the City Attorneys advice
in the matter will have any weight with
either of his fellow Commissioners. Miles
Doody is the last member of the old politl-
cal machine that prevailed under the regime
OF Hughes, Carothers and Miller who were
legislated out of Office by the amendment
OF the charter advocated by Mayor Pardee
and passed by the last Legislature. The
Mayor himself says he believes all his acts
as a Commissioner are clearly illegal and
is anxious for the question to be finally
settled.
