 Prom all the indications" said Mir Davis, there is no doubt as to what the result will be if we do not have primaries at which ittnerants, Populists and Demo- crats vote" It was decided to endeavor to have the hour for closing the polls at the primaries extended to 8 p. m., as on former occasions many voters had been unable to cast their ballots because of the earlier closing.

OAKLAND, July 12.-The Board of Su- pervisors met this afternoon after lengthy executive session and voted to re- fer the matter of the use of the Alice street bridge pending the reconstruction of the Webster street bridge to Chairman Roeth of the Committee on Roads and Bridges, in conjunction with the represen- tatives of the cities of Alameda and Oak land. He is 10 report back on Friday morning as it is absolutely necessary to have some measure taken to prevent the suspension of traffic between the two cities The board desires to act in entire harmony with the municipalities in the matter, hence the reference to their gov erntng bodies.
 The matter of sewering the county buildings was referred to the Committee on Buildings and Grounds, with power to act. The plans and specifications sub mitted by Supervisor Mitchell were ac- Cepted. Bids were received from DalZell 6; Moller for $SO5: E. R. Tut for $7S7, and Strum & Leitch for N62 for the work. The latter being the lowest bidder will dc. the work. They prepared the plans free of cost.
 County Clerk Jordan has asked that help be employed to assist in getting out the great register. He said: While I am willing to do everything 1 can in reason ] do not think that it is just for the coun- ty to expect that l should bear the entire cost of preparing the great register thls year, in view of the fact that this county has always paid for this work; that the general work of my office has increased cent with no increase of salary or in view of the fact that other counties have assisted the clerk. In the county of Sacramento the Superior Court in suit No. 712l, entitled J. w. Green Vs. the Board of Supervisors of Sacramento County, the Board of Supervisors were or dered by the court to provide the means for getting out the great register of that county

BUILDER DAHLRERG
 MADE 4 MISTAKE WOULD LOSE MONEY ON AN ENGINE HOUSE. He Asked the Fire and Water Com mittee to Release Him From
 His Contract.

E. Dahlberg, contractor, appeared be- fore the Fire and Water Committee of the Supervisors yesterday and voiced his re- gret at having been declared the lowest bidder for the construction of an engine house at Holly Park. At the last meet ing of the board he had put in bid of $5SS1, the next highest bid being that of J. H. Mckay who offered to do the work for $6295, difference of S414. The contract was awarded to Dahlberg and after the first flush of joy had passed away and he had had a sleep over it, he ruminated over the $414 difference in the two lowest bids. and was repentant. He informed the com mittee that he had made a mistake in fig uring on the lumber and that if the board should hold him to his contract he would lose more than $500. He asked the com mittee to release him from his contract or to arrange some way by which he could do the work without mourning the loss of so much money.
 Clerk Russell informed him that Super for Judge Seawell had ruled recently that contracts must be awarded to the lowest bidders and that they must be held on their bonds for the faithful performance of the work.
 Contractor Dahlberg went his way after promising to state his case in a communi- cation to the board.

 Arthur B. Symonds. whose mind has been wrecked by overstudy, was brought to the Receiving Hospital this afternoon charged with insanity. and this evening was sent to Napa asylum.
 Young Symonds is d scholar and educat- or of much ability. Ten years ago he at tended the high school at Fitchburg, Ill.,, and subsequently, with his father moved to the coast, and young Symonds entered the university at Berkeley. He showed great talent as linguist. and from Berke- ley went to Harvard where he graduated. Some time later he was appointed to a po- sition in the Presbyterian Boys School at San Rafael.
 While doing this he studied Greek at Berkeley and was also engaged as a tutor. Receiving a valuable fellowship in Colum- bia University, he went to that institution and studied languages, and after two years of remarkable success went to Paris. While there his mind weakened and con- tinued to give way. He returned to his home in Berkeley, and for d few months has been receiving medical aid, but his brain has been overtaXed. He is not vio- lent and gives little tangible proof of in sanity, which form of lunacy the exam ming physician declares to be most griev- ous. Judge Greene ordered the young scholar to be confined in the State hos pital at Napa.

CHURCH PARTY TO FIGHT
WILL AFFECT THE TAX LEVY TO
 BE FIXED IN OCTOBER.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,

9OS Broadway, July 12.
 The ordinance introduced into the City Council last night reducing the munich pal liquor license from s100 to $50 has once more aroused the periodical struggle be- tween the two great parties in this city known as the church party and the sa- loon party. The measure will be bitterly contested and there is no doubt that it's introduction at this time Is for the pur- pose of putting the members of the Council on record. It is not certain how the measure will be received by the Council. The members are about equally divided and this is most decidedly fac tonal measure.
 Earl, Henneberry, Watkinson, Wood ward and Heitman can almost be de- pended upon to support the measure. Pringle, Rowe, Upton, Cuvellier and Gi- rard can about as certainly be relied upon to oppose it.
 This leaves the matter entirely in the hands of Brosnahan. A few months ago Brosnahan introduced an ordinance grad ing the license, and requiring liquor deal- CTS who conducted both a wholesale and retail business to pay more than the lit tie saloon men at Golden Gate. This or dinance was ridiculed by nearly every member of the Council and BrOsnahan eventually withdrew it. He then openly declared he would be revenged on some of those who would not vote for his meas ure, and then changed his vote on the water ordinance, enabling the extortion- ate Woodward ordinance to prevail
 Brosnahan stated at that time that he would never again take a hand in mon keying" with the license question, and when the Henneberry ordinance comes up for final passage Brosnahan's vote may decide its fate.
 The anti-saloon element is already or ganizing for the next city campaign, which follows close after the county cam paigR in November. At the special cleo tion a year ago, to determine the ques- ton of whether Oakland should have sa- looms or not. the saloon men carried the day, but not by a majority so large as they expected. It was contended by the anti-saloon party at that time that with proper organization they could have won. Since then pr. E. $. Chapman has opened up vigorous anti-saloon State campaign, with headquarters in Oakland.
 A large portion of the city's revenue Is derived from saloon licenses, and the reduction of the tax will materially af- feet the tax levy to be fixed by the City Council in a couple of months.

Svo 1o4Odu W dys uIy 1E.
 A little crowd of less than a hundred people listened this morning on the coun- ty road to an exhortation under circum- stances unique and horrible
 The sermon was delivered by a Saliva the Army soldier over the mutilated re- mains of Harry Werner, who, five min utes previously. had been speeding on his wheel from the Trestle Glen camp meet ing to his home in San Jose.
 While getting out of the way of an cleo tric car on the Haywards road Werner rode into a hole filled with stones, was thrown over his wheel in front of the car and instantly killed.
 As soon as the dead mans companion realised what had happened he lifted the broken corpse away from the track and kneeling over 1t, prayed fervently, while the crowd gathered around Rising from his knees and while waiting for the Morgue wagon. the Salvationist,. eXalt- ed with pronounced fervor and sincerity on the timely object lesson, warning others to be prepared for death. It was probably the most unique sermon ever delivered.
 This morning Werner left the camp to return to San Jose. He was wheeling along the Haywards road not far from the Moss tract. He was riding along the track ahead of the car and in turning out his wheel was caught in a ditch used for drainage purposes. He stumbled and fell with his wheel right in front of an other car. AL this tune Only a lew feet remained between Werner and the car. It was impossible to stop in the short dis tauce and Werner was knocked down and dragged over the newly ballasted track for fully seventy feet. When Ethe car stopped it was seen at once that life was extinct and that the body had been fear fully cut
 The deceased was a member of the San Jose corps of the Salvation Army. He was about 40 years of age and has been a sol dier for some years. His body was re moved to the Morgue and an inquest will be held tomorrow evening, so that the captain of the San Jose corps can come to Oakland and positively identify his body.
 Motorman Dufton says that Werner was riding on the track and in trying to get out of the way of his bicycle was ditched and Werner was thrown right in front of the car not more than ten feet ahead. He says he did everything pos sible to stop in time to prevent striking Werner, but it was impossible to do so.

A RETURN COMPLIMENT. Berkeley People to Buy Flags for the
 New Ferry-Boat.

BERKELEY, July 12.-J. w. Richards, president of the Board of Trustees, thinks that the action of the Southern Pacific Railway Company In calling its new ferry steamer the Berkeley should not be al- lowed to go unappreciated by the resi- dents of the town. At the meeting of the Board of Trustees held last night he took occasion to suggest a way in which the compliment might be returned. Presi- dent Richards said he thought that the citizens of Berkeley should purchase u set of flags for the new steamer. A public subscription ought to be raised sufficient to make the present a handsome one. The trustees agreed that although no official move could be taken in the matter, they would further the movement as much as possible. Several of the leading citizens are known to have expressed themselves as thoroughly in favor with the plan and there seems little doubt that 1t will soon be carried out.

sOS Broadway, July F.
 The Central Christian church is fast going to pieces and before many weeks it is believed the two Christian organ izations will have united. At last Sun days meeting thirty resignations were handed in, including those of Mrs Ada Van Pelt, Mrs. M. D. Gracey and Mrs. Laura Ritter.
 The congregation Is not at all satisfied with the manner in which Rev. Edwards Davis was received back into the fold They have been Investigating and are con- vin9d that there was a little political work done, of which they were unaware. They have satisfied themselves that the letter of commendation approved by the church was written by Rev Mr. Davis himself, and that he secured it's accept ance and Endorsement in manner they do not approve.
 The minister is under obligations to some of the officers of the church. One of these is Elder Wishart, who holds note against the ex-pastor. MT. Davis was pressed to pay the notes. but dlo not respond to the pressure. He gave Elder Wlshart some encouragement on condi- square himself with his indignant con- gregation. Elder Wishart presented the self written commendattOn of the pastor and stated that it was the duty of the church to accept 1t Unanimously, and this was done.
 Now. many of these who voted to take bi4t l'cSIN boCh ltlO the IOlO regret thelr action and are reslgling. The church al present IS without a pastor, the last one haVlng left because it was found inn possible 10 keep up his salary. No ef- forts are being made to secure his suc- cessor, and at the present rate of de- crease the congregation will soon be thing Cf the rast
 The First Christian Church. of which Rev P. D. Butler is pastor, has already taken into its In6l1tel ship several of Mr. Davls' late fcck, and from present ap- pearances the much-talked-of union be- tween the Central and First Christian churches will come about independently of any actual move tC secure it.
