SUPERVISORS FALL OUT.
They Totally Ignore the Chairman o
the Hospital Committee

They Totally Ignore the Chairman of
the Hospital Committee
OAKLAND, CAL, Feb. 23.-Tne har-
mony that has distinguished the new
Board OF Supervisors was most rudely
broken to-day. The matter came to q
crisis over discussion regarding rules for
the government of the hospital.
A set of new rules was read by the clerk,
and Mr.. Roeth, who was chairman of the
Hospital Committee, demanded to know
who prepared them. Mr., Church stated
that they were prepared by the physician,
upon which Mr.. Roeth declared that it
was a matter belonging TO the Hospital
Committee and that he did not intend to
be ignored. Mr.. Wells was Of the opinion
that the physician understood the needs
of the hospital and should control it.,
whereupon M. Roeth said that the new
rules were an effort to cover up m matters in
the hospital which the public should
know. The object OF it, he declared, is to
shut out reporters and TO take from the
steward the maintenance of the place.
Mr.. Cnurch said: Il am not playing to
the gallery as Roeth is, and any one who
says that am trying TO cover up anything
tells willfuI falsehood."
On the vote being taken the rules were
adopted, Roeth being the only dissenter.

BIG VALUE OF A
PISTOL PERMIT
Granted, by Mayor Davta
to a Man Returning

Judge Wood Highly Amused at the
Story Told by the Returned
Trav l-r.
OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,

908 Broadway, Feb. %.
Frank Angeli returned from Italy yes
: terday and told Judge Wood this morning
q most remarkable story of the effect on
Italian officials of an Oakland permit to
carry revolver.
"A few months ago AngeIi wanted TO re-
o turn home and visit his native land. He
. seemed to have the idea that ali manner
OF difficulties requiring heroic settlement
might be met with between California
and sunny Italy. He told his troubles TO
Judge Wood and asked for permission to
carry revolver. Angel was told that as
soon as he got outside the city limits the
permit would avail him nothing. But he
persisted in his request.
Judge Wood took him to Mayor Davie
and explained the situation, and to satisfy
MIN o permit was given him which was
signed by the Mayor and the Judge. An
gell went to Italy and returned couple
OF days ago. He went to Judge Wood and
told the following tale:
Il had no difficulty about passport," "
said Angel; wherever l went l showed
my permit, and it was at once accepted.
customs officials looked ut it, and after
reaulng II bowed most politely to me and
made II appear as though it were per-
sonar 1aVor OF me to pass on and not re-
qufre them to search my trunks or ask me
Tor other papers. When got home every
body examined this piece of paper, and at
once l noticed that they thought l was a
very prominent man. l did not under
stand why this was 50, and think the
Judge and the Mayor must have made a
mistake and given me something else than
a permit to carry gun. l cannot read
the English on my paper, but l had some
one write 1t for me in Italian"
" Being greatly interested in the mans
. story, Judge Wood and the Mayor care
July examined the permit to-day and
found that Angel. in order to have mat
te!s straight and avoid any pos ,ble diff
Guilty, had requested friend who could
read English 10 write on the back the fact
that 1t was attested by the Mayor and the

something which made it appear that

/. Mayor is yet able TO explain why permit

the joke Is one OF the best yet reported.

LONG CAREER OF CRIME.
Coin-Sweater Dickey's Cache Was Dis

Coin-Sweater Dickey's Cache Was Dis
covered by a Paper Carrier.
OAKLAND, CAL, Feb. 23.-S. r. Dickey
and Frederick Bite the two oin-sweaters
IN the County Jail. will be arraigned to-
morrow.
Dickey has an interesting history that
has been unearthed by Secret Service
Agent Harris. His family are well-to- do
and own large ranch near Napa. Last
July a boy who carries papers through
the valley while crossing the Dickey ranch
saw the prisoner hiding som ething under
fence.
The boy concealed himself, and when
the man had gone away he unearthed the
treasure. IT proved TO be small molds,
and the newsboy took one of them to the
constable of Napa and told him how he
obtained it. Sometime later the con-
stable notified Detective Harris.
Meanwhile Dickey had discovered that
his cache had been disturbed, so he dug
up the molds and took them to Secret Ser
vice Agent Harri. in San Francisco. He
said he had found them IN his field and
chopper named Virgin, then in Alaska
Frederick Bite, Dickey's present mate,
is unknown to the Secret Service. He
has been living with Dickey for some
{ me. Bite is a member OF Harmony
Lodge, A. o. U. W.. and as such holds q
life insurance policy. He has signed over
mis- interest in the policy to D.ckey, on
condition that the latter maintain him
during life. Dckey had fulfilled this sim
gular contract with sweated coin, and
both are now in trouble.
In addition to all this notoriety Dickey
was in love with "Dr. Addie Swain of
San Francisco, but she stated to-day that
he love was all on the one side. It is in
iimaied that Dickey will plead guilty, bat
Bite will demand trial.
