Washington, July Cdr. Wyman.
of the marine hospital service, in COM
menting on the action of the San Fran
cisco board of health in protesting
against the action Of the government
in establishing quarantine plant on
Angel island, in San Francisco bay,
and in exercising authority in quaran-
tine matters at that point, said that
the plant was established and the neo-
essary jurisdiction given by special act
of congress, and that, until the act was
repealed. it would be enforced. Hith-
erto the quarantine regulations in force
at that port, he said, had been inade-
quate and the facilities for disinfect-
ing baggage, ETC., were Of no practical
use, The government had erected a
plant with two large steam disinfect-
ors, with rooms for the use of detained
passengers, etc., and boarding steam
or had been put in commission, and he
had no doubt that good results would
be obtained. DIR. Wyman was at a
loss to know upon what ground the ac-
tion of the board could be justified, but
expressed the wish and hope that all
differences would be amicably settled.

MAY HE WEAR A BADGE? ?
James Kenney Does Not Know
Whether He Is Fire
Chief or Not.
Hilborn Being Supported-Examina
ticns at the University Sc.
we're This Year.

BERKELEY, CAL, Aug. 1.-THE re-
fusal of the Town Trustees to appoint
James Kenney Chief OF the Fire Depart
ment will probably leave Berkeley without
Chief for nearly year. 1t is thought
that the question will again come up next
June, that month being the one fixed by
ordinance for the selection of Fire Chief.
The movement to secure Chief was
started by the Peralta Fire Company,
which led in the fight against Kenney.
The company had 8 candidate of its own
it's foreman-D. J. Keane being the prin-
cipal opponent of James Kenney, and
friends OF the latter charge that Keane'
defeat had much to do with the company s
opposition.
The outcome of the affair has placed the
Town Trustees in a peculiar position.
They it was who caused convention of
firemen to be held, resultin g in the nomi-
nation of Kenney, and now tney refuse
to indorse him. Though 70 direct vote
on Kenney has been taken by the board,
yet their Discrimination last night to pass
an ordinance under which he might be
appointed is construed as practical
throwc own. 1t is understood that three
of the members favored Kenney, while
the other three were against him.
Having been supported directly by five
of the fire companies out of the seven
now existing, Kenney considers himself
practically the Fire Chief of Berkeley. not
withstanding the refusal of the board to
indorse his name. "The Fire Department
The San Francisco call., 1896-08-12

of Berkeley is made up of seven volunteer
companies" said Kenney tonight, "and
IN reality the matter of who shall be their
leader lies IN the hands OF the companies
themselves. / have had sufficient cause
to believe that hold the office of Chief to
justify me in naming my assistants and
in wearing the Chiefs badge, which was
presented to me the other evening"
II am sure that the board will finally
settle the matter to the satisfaction OF all.
They will doubtless have to abrogate the
presen: ordinance, however, if they expect
10 make an appointment before June, for
otherwise they will have TO wait until that
time in order to observe the law"

To-Day,s entertainments,

The managers OF the Oakland Exposi-
ton extended to the colored citize MS of
Oakland and vicinity an invitation to as
sist in the entertainment. They accepted
the invitation and tonight they will pre-
sent very interesting and charming pro-
gramme.
The management is well pleased that it
has this feature to add to the attractive
ness of the fair and it deplores that the
occasion should have been falsely pre-
sented in the Chronicle. Those who will
participate and their friends were very
indignant at the uniustifed reference to
cake walks, etc., which appeared in the
alleged account of the programme.
Homer Bishop of Oakland in discussing
the offensive article says:
We resent 1t as an attempt of the writer to
bias the minds of the citizens of Oakland and
San Francis against the success of our day
and reflection upon our ability to present an
intellectual programme The programme on
this occasion will be such that the most cul-
tured OF our citizens can listen to it with salts
faction. 1t is to be depIored by all good citi-
zens that the Chronicle would publis in its
columns that there would be a cake walk
when it knew at the time thatit was base
falsehood, the baseness being only exceeded
by the writer himself.

vaults for some time. He is married
man and lives in Berkeley. Two weeks
ago he borrowed a brace and bit, screw
driver and other tools from the engineer,
saying he wanted to use them at his
home. The holes made in the partition
to make the flap through which the sacks
were abstracted from the bureau in the
superin tcndent's office correspond with
the bit and brace and the screw driver.
Darragh was always asking about the rob-
berry, and day before yesterday remarked
to Owen Pegg, the engineer, that he was
surprised the police had not searched the
attic for the stolen coin. Pegg went into
the attic after Darragh had gone away,
and found one of the sacks, containing
S400 which he turned over to the police.
The detectives claim that there are other
circumstances that Darragh will find hard
to explain satisfactorily.
Captain Spillane OF the Southern district
police station, who has been busily en-
gagged searching for evidence against the
accused man, is confident that the other
sack which contains $500 is still around
the building.
A force of men will search every nook in
the wine vaults to-day and in all probability
the stolen money will by nightfall be in
the hands of its rightful owners.

Fourth-That committee OF five be ap-

The club has selected for its president a
man with a history. 1t is Valentine
Alyiso, who carried the banner in the first
Republican campaign ever conducted in
this county.
President Alyiso was the life long friend
of the late Senator Stanford. During the
campaign in war times, in which Stanford
was elected Governor, he learned to ad-
mire the plucky young man who went to
the front of every Republican procession
CARRYING the stars and stripes. The Sena-
tor obtained for Mr.. Alviso place in the
Mint and later he was keeper of Spanish
archives in the Surveyor Generals office.
A few days ago Mr.. AIviso recalled his
first meeting with Mr.. Stanford, at the
time the railroad man was on tour of in
spection Just after the railroad had been
built into the valley. Mr.. Stanford ex-

The Introduction of the Commander of

OAKLAND, CAL, Aug. u.-Captain
Mills of the Volunteers of America was
introduced to an Oakland audience to-
night as the commanding officer of the
new post of that organization, which is
soon to be opened in this city. He spoke
briefly upon the work he is about to under
take, and asked the cooperation of the
Christian people in reaching those who do
not profess to be saved.
The meeting was held in the First NJ. E..
Church under the direction of Major
Washington Blackhurst. commander of
the Pacific Coast Battalion of the new
movement. He spoke at length upon the
line of work they propose to take up in
this city and the success of the work as
started upon this coast. They have
secured the old Young Mems Christian
Association Hall on Broadway for their
headquarters. 1t is right in the heart of
the business part of the city. 1t is being
reftted and cleaned up, preparatory to
the opening. Blackhurst closed with a
talk upon social evils and their remedies.

days.
The whole scene looks like one piece of
mechanism. All the typewriters ere

Is wasted on conversation or smiles. The
rasping of paper as the workers turn over
the afidavits, the perpetual click of the
types and the constant tinkling of bells
continue without intermission, and the
great register that will be used at the
primaries next Saturday will have been
printed on the most attractive printing
machine in the world.
Registration closed last night, and
County Clerk Jordan promised the Re-
publican County Committee that he
would give them two certified copies of
the register for every precinct IN Alameda
County thirty-six hours after registration
closed. At o'clock TINS morning the
work was commenced. Each lady that
could find place at the long table brought
her machine, and a few minutes later
each was clicking away for her life from a
portion of the 81 900 affidav1ts that have
been sworn to by he voters of the county.
The register as at present being pre-
pared on typewriting machines is very
complete and almost perfect piece OF
work. Its use at the primaries will re-
corrected at once, so that the copies of
the great register that will be used for
the general election will be as nearly per-
feet as it is possible to make it. This will
be something new for Alameda County.

is an accurate piece of work, and could
not have been accom- plished had not we
begun work on it months ago and kept our
affidavits filed alphabetically. 1t has cost
the county as high as $4,000 to get out
great registers on former occasions. but
this one has cost nothing but some small
bills for stationery. 1t is a clean Job, and

there is not stuffer on it. In addition to
all the work that can be seen there has
been an espionage kept on any doubtful
character whose record shows that he
would not be averse to stutfing a register
