SIX VERY SMALL PIECES,
All That Oakland Loses of

Front.
rs AWARDED MANY MILES.
The Entering of the Decree Settles
the Case In the Superior
Court.
rs AWARDED MANY MILES
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL,

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALI
90S Broadway. Sept. %. (
The celebrated Oakland waterfront case,
so far as the Superior Court of Alameda
County is concerned, is at an end, and to-
day the findings were completed and
signed and the decree entered.
1t is certain that the case will go to the
Supreme Court of the United States after
the Supreme Court of California has
passed upon it, but as the judgment of
Judge Ogden is founded almost entirely
upon the great principles laid down in the
celebrated Chicago decision, it is not ex-
pected that it will be reversed. A brief
resume of the findings of the Court are as
follows:
The court finds the facts to be: First-That
except as to six small pieces filed with earth
designated in the findings, the city OF Oakland
is the owner in fee of all that tract of land in
the county of Alameda involved in the suit
lying within the present boundaries of the
city of Oakland specifically set forth by metes
ana bounds.
BY reason of the six pieces of land having
been filled and reclaimed from the tide the
plaintiff has lost and defendant has acquired
the title to the same and is the proprietary
owner in fee of the same. These six small
pieces are: The fill or approach to the Market
street wharf; the Remillard fill; the fill or
approach to the Clay-street wharf; the ash and
cfnder dump of the gas company; the south
end of the Sessions fill and the fill between the
local track and through track at Clinton
station.
The lands of the Oakland harbor are said to
be 'held by the plaintiff, the city of Oakland,
as a public corporation and governmental
agency of the State of California for the COM
mon benefit of all the people of the State and
always ' s have f been public highway" ''
1t is adjudged that the city OF Oakland does
not own that part of the water front lying out
side of the present city limits i.e., south Of the
center line of the estuary; that as to that part
the formation of the city of Alameda and the
contracting of Oakland's limits excluded that
much by implication from the original owner
ship and control of Oakland. But the court
does not find that the defendant, the Oakland
Water Front Company, has any title TO that
part.
THE effect of this inasmuch as the State has
never made any grant TO the city of Alameda,
is to hold that that part of the grant of the
water front has been revoked by the State, and
that part OF the premises now belongs to the
State.)
tits also found that the Oakland harbor
includes not only the estuary but the

WHEEL NoTEs-A Boston mechanical
engineer is said to have invented tire
which cannot be punctured by ordinary
means. The merit of the invention lies in
a woven tube or jacket, and according to
the accounts of recent test journey over
a road strewn with tacks would not seri-
ousiy injure it. The tire is covered with
light coating of rubber to give 1t a smooth
surface and make it waterproof In the
public demonstration of the capabilities Of
the tire bed OF broken glass and sharp
edged stones was prepared in a large loft,
and supplemented by piece OF canvas six
feet in length in which nails and tacks
were inserted points upward. The canvas
was nailed to the floor. Over all these
obstacles the tires were used dozen times
without sustaining puncture. The outer
covering of rubber was badly cut. The tire
will soon be placed on the market.
In Paris much excitement was created by
a rumor that the Project OF Police intended
TO issue an order prohibiting women from
wearing masculine attire within the fortiti-
cations. Hearing of this many professors
of the great teaching institutions have
presented petition praying that the pre-
feet will not make his order operative in
the Latin quarter. The reason they assign
is that since the ladies OF that district took
to wearing knickerbockers, whether cy-
cling or not, they had lost all charms for
the students, who were now attending to
their classes and their duties with an as
siduity hitherfore unknown. The profess
sors fear that with return to their former
coquettish costumes the young women
would resume their old ascendancy over
the students, who would relapse into their
former wonted neglect OF duty.

waters of the bay from ship channel east
ward to the shore line and includes the
estuary. Oakland harbor is not an artl-
fetal harbor but natural harbor, and was
navigated and was a safe and convenient
harbor for the vessels of commerce, and
was used as such prior to the admission
of California into the Union, and has been
so used ever since.
1t is adludged that it was never the
policy of the State to grant any. such
water fronts to private parties, although
tide lands have been sold by the State to
be filled in as proprietary lands, but only
in small parcels.
All the various deeds and grants from
Carpenter down are declared to be void,
and IN no case has the city of Oakland
been estopped from bringing the present
suit.
The fact that the Water Front Company
has paid taxes on the property. Tor many
years IS held to possess no merit, as IN no
case can the payment of taxes give title.
The findings conclude thus:
As conclusions of law the court finds accord
ing to the foregoing facts, briefly summing up
results, awarding the property within lts pres
ent limits to the city, the small filled pieces 70
the Water Front Company and the use OF the
two wharves, not inconsistent with the ordl-
nary rights OF navigation and commerce, until
compensation is made for the wharyes, ana
that these lands are and always have been
public highway. The judgment and decree in
the usual form crystallizes and gives effect TO
the foregoing determinations of fact and con-
illusions OF law, describing the property ana
the excepted small pieces and awarding costs
to the city to be hereafter taxed.
The Water Front Company has already
given notice of appeal from the above
Judgment and findings.

An Unhappy Family.


To-day an old man was found lying on
the sidewalk on Tenth street, near Broad
way, seemingly III dazed con dition. He
had bundle of blankets under his head
and near him were three children, the
youngest years and the eldest IL years of
age. They were neglected and dirty. The
old man was removed to the City Prison
and charged with drunkenness.
The eldest girl on being questioned
said that the old man was her father.
His name was Thomas Thompson. He

hold one of the grandest privileges be-
queathed to man. 1t is the medium by

force in nature can do, he can retreat and

Fred A. Campbell, chairman of the Re-
publican City Central Committee says he
objects seriously to the manner in which
A. w. Bishop, one of the proprietors of the
Oakland Times, has acted toward the com
mittee. A. W. Bishop is secretary of the
Republican Committee, and does not ap-
prove of the manner in which City Engi-
neer Wilson is distributing the patronage
of his office Two days ago Mr.. Wilson
received the following note:
OAKLAND, Sept. 20, 1895.
H. r. WiIson Esq.-DEAR SIR: Will you give
the City Republican Central Committee con-
ference at your Office on Saturday alarm.
By request of the committee.
A. w. BISHOP, Secretary.
Mr.. Wilson took the note to Fred Camp
bell, the chairman, who disclaimed any
knowledge of it, and wrote across the back
the following:
OAKLAND, Sept. g. 1895.
This matter was never brought before the
committee at any time, and was never author
lied by any number of the committee, to my
knowledge. FRED A. CAMPBELL,
Chairman Republican Committee.
Mr.. Bishops paper came out yesterday
and said: "Mr. Wilson has been called to
can City Committee and account for his
broken promises. No one knew anything
about it." Several other articles also APP
peared in Mr. Bishops paper that, to use
Wilson's expression, Burned me up
alive"
Fred A. Campbell said tonight: "rhe
affair is unauthorized, so far as l can find
out. l don't know what Bishop means.
I've seen all the other members of the
nd 4a1l hau
nothing about any conference, and that
they have not authorized any. 1t is unpre-
cedented for secretary to do such thing
as this without authority. 1t looks as
though Bishop was trying to get scoop
for the Times"
Mr.. Peirsol, the City Attorney, also re-
ceived similar letter from Mr.. Bishop,
although he is credited with owing his
election to the Populists.
Mr. Bishop said that he could not give
the names, but he thought he was author
lied to do as he had done. There was no
meeting at the City Hall.

Oliver, Wilbur and Sherrard being in the
team.
The college boys displayed better team
work and played a superior game. The
touchdown was made by Cooney after a
long end ran by Hanlon. The points for
the Reliance were made on safety. Sher-
