OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALI
90S Broadway, March IL.
West Oakland has never before seen
such an object lesson demonstrating the
immediate need of adequate car guards as
was with essed this afternoon.
In the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank E.
Booth were two little white coffins, each
reposing in bed of flowers sent by SYM
pathetic friends and neighbors. In either
coffin was one of the two only daughters
of the Booths. The work of the cruel car
wheels was visible on the little, angelic
faces, and as the immense throng passed
through the parlors hardly dry eye could
be seen leaving the solemn spectacle.
There were innumerable floral crosses,
crowns, pillows, baskets and bouquets. A
large piece representing the gates ajar
was set above the others. Scores of little
tots with whom the deceased children had
played brought their floral tributes of a
lew roses or early pinks and laid them
against the cotfins, with tear-stained faces.
The house was filled with sympathetic
friends, while the yard and street were
lined with those who could not gain an
entrance. At the curb stood two white
hearses, each with team of white horses,
and those whose bouquets could not be
taken into the house deposited them on
the hearses.
AS the little caskets were carried out of
the home that had been so fearfully de-
vastated, hundreds of the onlookers burst
into tears. A short funeral service was
conducted by Rev. F. J. Mynard of St.
Johns Episcopal Church. A hymn sung
by friends, brief prayer and few words
of comfort to the bereaved parents and Of
exhOrtation to the visitors concluded the
ceremonies.
During the service the death-dealing
car, No. H. that had stricken down the two
little giris passed the house Of mourning
twice. The idea was freely expressed that
the superintendent of the line might have
ordered q suspension of the cars for the
few minutes that were occupied with the
services.
The pail bearers for Ida Emily, aged s,
were J. P. Heller, b. c. Hawer, H. Clark
and Captain Matthews. Katie Anna s
white coffin was carried out by Paul
Dorey, Judah Newman, Simon Matthews
and Jay Dewing. These gentlemen are all
business associates of Mr.. Booth. The in
terment was al Cypress Lawn Cemetery.

To UNRESTRICTED ARBITRATION
Lord Salisbury Knuck1es
to Monroe Doctrine. z
Venezuela Happy But European:
Decidedly Disgruntled-Treat
Completed.

LONDON, Nov. 14.-It proves, after
all, that Lord Salisbury's vague Ian
guage at Guild Hall about the terms of
the Venezuelan arbitration was both
premature and misleading. A wrong
idea prevailed at the British Foreign
Office even on the day following the
Prime Minister'S speech regarding the
territorial limitations of the arbitra-
ton which had been agreed upon.
There is now semi-ofticial authority
for saying the agreement, as signed by
Secretary Olney and ambassador
Pauncefote in Washington, will not re-
strict the arbitrators from drawing the
line on the British Guiana side of all
the holdings of British settlers, whose
interests caused the deadlock of last
winter and spring. By the provision
with regard to these settlers the ar
bitrators may give effect to their rights
under the ordinary laws, with regard to
their titles, and claims are to be set
tied by appraisement and cOmpensa-
ton. They will in no respect govern
the drawing of the boundary The
semi-off1cial language on this point is:
Possession for shorter periods is held
to confer inchoate rights, the exact
value of which is matter for impartial
appraisement."
1t is admitted that none of the terri
tory seriously claimed by Venezuela
has been occupied by British subjects
for so years, the time of restriction
agreed on. 1t is intended to protect
only the older and more permanent
British colony which never has been
regarded as seriously involved in the
dipute. The practical effect of the
agreement is therefore that the Vene
zuelan question will be submitted to
arbitration.

MINISTER ANDRADE HAPPY.
Going Home to Present Treaty to His
governments.

Going Home to Present Treaty to His
Government.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. IA
Senior Andrade, Minister to the United
States from Venezuela, has gone home.
He has taken with him a copy of the
treaty between Venezuela and Great
Britain for the arbitration Of the bOun-
dairy dispute, together with a copy of
the agreements signed by Secretary
Olney and Sir Julian PauncefOte,
which was preliminary to the treaty
between the countries equally in inter
est. Senior Andrade will urge his Gov
eminent to accept the treaty at once.
He will carry a letter from Secretary
Olney which will show the position
of this country and will point out to
the Venezuelan Government the ad-
vantage of accepting the treaty and adj
justing the boundary on the lines Sc
cured by the Intervention of the Unit
ed States.
Senior Andrade left Washington con-
fident that there would be no hesitancy
on the part of Venezuela in accepting
the treaty but he was so anxious that
the matter should be speedily disposed
of that he decided to go in person to
Carcas instead of making his represen-
tations by letter. The treaty will have
to be approved, not only by President
Crespo, but by the House of Repre-
sentatives of Venezuela.
Minister Andrade had no doubt of
speedy action on the part of the Vene-
zuelan Legislature, especially when 1t
was found that treaty so favorable
to that country had been made and
that its adoption was strongly urged by
the United States. The treaty is IN
blank as TO signatures, but no doubt
it will be signed by Sir Julian Paunce-
fOte on the part of Great Britain and
by Senior Andrade on the part of Ven-
ezuela, as it is known to be the in
tention of all those taking part in the
negotiations to have it concluded III
Washington, as was the agreement be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States which brought about the treaty.

FORT SCOTT, Kas., Nov. 13.-James
Campbell, the Sandwich Island mil

on his big ranch % miles west of here.
A few days after the kidnapping the
ranchman read the details of the affair
and he wrote to the Sandwich Iselands
man.
Three months passed and no answer
came, and the ranchman had about de-
cided to abandon the idea of his re-
lationship to the millionaire, when one
day a roughly dressed stranger who
professed to be traVersing the cOntin-
ent on foot stopped at his house. Lat
er it was developed that the visitor
was a detective from San Francisco.
Two weeks later Campbell received a
letter from the sugar millionaire, and
further correspondence has resulted in
arrangements for the two brothers to
meet at the ranchman'S home here
soon.

MISS HARMS-MRS. SHULTIS.
Marriage Was Quite Secret-NOw in
Honolulu.

Honolulu.
ALAMEDA, CAL, Nov. 13.-F'rank
Shultis of this city and Miss Lucy J.
Harms, a daughter of a cigar dealer
of San Francisco, were married on
Wednesday by Justice Cliff of Oakland,
to whom they had gone Immediately on
securing the marriage license. The
honeymoon of the newly-married pair
was brief. They enjoyed supper at a
French restaurant, going to the the
ater in the evening. The next day the
handsome bride departed, without her
husband, for Honolulu. The MOnOwai
carried her off, together with a party
of her friends who were on board
while her father and the benedict of
day waved adieuX from the pier.
The wedding had long been contem-
plated by the young couple, but the
father of the bride was not let into
the secret of it's having taken place
Wednesday, and was in ignorance
when he said goOd-by to his daughter
that she was already Mrs. Shultis.
The bride will visit friends and rela-
tives on the Hawaiian Islands and eX-
poets to be absent several months.

impulsiOn Great Britain is giving to
one of the most extreme consequences
OF the Monroe Doctrine. 1t contends
that with the consent of Great Britain
the United States are invested with
the right to interfere in all territorial
quarrels of European powers with New
Word States, even when not asked by
the latter and without their consent.
These great innovations in interna-
tional law, the paper adds, consecrate
the absolute supremacy of the United
States in the Western Hemisphere, and
must cost British pride dear. Europe,
however, will be unable to accept such
a grave departure from the rights of
nations.

A Curious Photograph.

In connection with the statements
about the Roentgen discovery may be
mentioned an instance that came to our
notice ON Tuesday last. Commissioner
Bowling of the labor bureau has recent
ly been investigating certain tenements
and alleged sweatshops in New York
and had photographs taken Of some Of
the places he visited. The photographs
were taken by fiashlight by Altman Of
Fifth avenue. One of the pictures is Of
the interior Of cigarmaker's working
and living room. Mr.. Wood of the Cigar
Makers union is sitting on a chair in
front of one Of the windows of the
room, and outside of the window is a
fire escape with its customary railing.
The railing. the window sash, the back
and the seat of the chair ON which Mr..
Wood sits can be seen through his body
as plainly as if he had not been present.
It is curious picture and will have a
place in the commissioner S forthcoming
report. -Kinderhoo Rough Notes.
