RE TURN OF Dr. ]. Mclean
He Visited Washington, D. c., to
Obtain Funds to Complete the
Tidal Canal.
A Peculiar Case of Paralysis-Death
of an Old Resident-Meeting of
City Trustees.

ALAMEDA, CAL, June %. = Health
Officer DR.. John T. Mclean returned from
Washington, D. c., late Saturday evening.
He was sent to the capital last January by
the county and this city to urge upon the
Government the necessity of completing
the tidal canal
He is as enthusiastic, energetic and de-
termined as ever that the canal shall be
completed, and he will leave no stone I'M
turned to impress the powers that be on
this side of the continent that the work
has to be done.
In speaking of his labors in Washington
DR.. Mclean said that an appropriation OF
between $500 900 and 5000, 900 had been
made for the completion of the pending
improvements under the continuous con-
tract system, and the California delega-
ton had made representations to the
Government engineers to use the means at
their disposal for this year to dredge the
tidal canal and build foodgate at its
upper end.
The original plan as laid out for the con-
struction of the channel had never been
carried out, and as consequence there
had been expended $4,000 the amount
originally intended to complete the whole
work, and still it is in a half-fnished con-
dition. This is because thousands and
thousands of dollars have been expended

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL, (,

L
908 Broadway, June 29. !
Mrs. Wolfe, sister of Meyer Cohen, the
Oakland newspaper man who is now I'M
der arrest at Tacoma for passing forged
check in this city, was in town to-day and
told very different story of her brothers
trouble from that already published.
Cohen's friends, and they are legion, de-
clare that he is evidently safe from prose
cution or he would not have surrendered
himself. They assert that Meyer was
broke in Tacoma, and that he thought the
best way to get back to Oakland was by
coming here at the expense of the State.
Cohen, it will be remem bered, is the young
man who was to have been married to
Miss Kinda Greenberg at San Jose week
ago, but who failed to show up at the we'd
ding. Two days later com plant for
forgery was sworn out against him.
meyers sister was here to day explain
ing matters, said Joseph Harris, trustee
of the First Hebrew Congregation. ''She
declares that the checks were drawn by
father-in-law, and given to Meyer one
night when he was calling on his hancee.
HE returned to Oakland and naturally
went to some of the Jewish merchants
where he was known to have it cashed.
For some reason which she knows not
Greenberg became uneasy and withdrew
his money from the bank on which tn g
check was drawn.
when the bank in Oakland sent it to
San Jose for collection there was no
money and it was returned. There was
no charge of forgery then, nor until after
he failed to be present at the wedding.
She declares that the charge was then
made out of pique and to get even with
him. She declares he is innocent of any
crime and cites his readiness to return
and face his accusers on the charge of
theft preferred against him in support OF
her position. We are now all awaiting the
young mans return with interest owing to
this new turn in the case"
