TO BE STOPPED

After the bay celebration was all over
yesterday afternoon the executive COM
mittee held a short meeting at Mayor
Phelan's office to discuss some changes in
the programme that had been suggested
and to arrange for a banquet for the
Iowa boys after the parade. 1t was an
nounced that General Shafter and Ad-
miral Kautz were at Monterey and would
not be able to be present at the celebra-
tion to-day but would probably be on
hand tomorrow night. A message from
Captain Terry of the Iowa said that he
could not be in town at all, and Leuten-
ant Wetzel appeared before the committee
as his representative. Lieutenant Wetzel
said that his ordrs from Captain Terry
were that the boys of the Iowa might par
ticipate in the parade, but that under no
circumstances could they be granted shore
leave in a body.
The procession to-day will begin at 1913
o'clock and the committee decided to
communicate with Chief of Police Lees
and request him to hold up all street cars
along the line of march after 1880 o'clock.
The following letter was addressed to
him;

OAKLAND, Aug. 24.-The compulsory

Mrs. Trowbridge, daughters and heirs Of
the late Frederick Delger. Mrs. Brown

SON s AWFUL
CHARGE AGAINST
HIS HER
Obtained a Deed by
Threats.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call.

SS broadway. Aug. "a.
Public Administrator B c. Hawes filed
g most sensational suit in the Superior
Court late this afternoon against Adolph
H. Bauerle for the recovery of valuable
property belonging to the estate of the
latters mother, the late Mrs. Louisa H.
Bauerle, who died in this city on the 9Th
inst.
While the object OF the suit is princi-
pally 10 have annulled a certain deed.
wherein the mother transferred to her son
the title 10 certain property located In
East Oakland the allegations in the COM
plant setting forth the method of fraud
and undue influence exercised by the son
over the mother are such as seldom find
their way into documents outside Of a
divorce complaint.
When Mrs. BauerIe died she left prop
erty valued at about Sl5 coo. Shortly after
her death her two daughters-Mrs Louisa
E'romme and Anna Silva-learned that
she had left d Will in the possession of
their brother Adolph II. Bauerle. But
they also discovered that the aged mother
had decided most Of the property TO the
son, who, fearing 4 contest, refused to
file the will for probate. Then the daugh-
ters sought the offices OF the Public Ad-
ministrator, who promptly petitioned for
and was granted special letters OF admin
istratiOn. Immediately thereafter Adolph
II. Bauerle filed the will and asked 10 be
appointed executor, as he is named in the
instrument. and now the suit filed to-day
Is in the way of 4 contest.
Public Administrator Hawes alleges in
his complaint that at the time Mrs
Bauerle decided her property to Adolph
she was in Ill health and incompetent to
manage her affairs and that while in this
condition the son. through threats that he
would expose her criminal relations with
one Henry Meyer in 1894 - induced her TO
sign the deed. The complaint further
specifies and quotes the exact language
which Adolph Bauerle is alleged to have
uttered during one OF these spasmodIc
threats in these words; I'll let every one
know about the affair. III let every one
know some of the dirty tricks you have
been doing
Such threats, declares the special ad-
ministrator, caused the mother to be
thrown into Mysteries which was fol-
lowed by illness and which eventually
resulted in her deciding TO her accusing
son much Of her valuable property. 1t IS

Oakland Office San Francisco Call,

90S Broadway, Aug. "A.
If the allegations made in complaint
filed in the Superior Court this afternoon
by Attorney H. Shafter Aldrich, on behalf
of aged Mrs. Sarah Rose, can be relied
upon, as inconIrovertible. she has been
victimized out OF the several hundred
dollars TO which she looked for comfort
in her declining years by Alfred d. and
Phoebe a. McNevin and G.. A. Stevens,
who are described III the complaint as
slick and designing of polished and per
suasive manners, appearance and ao-
dress"
Against this trio the plaintiff. aged 10
years, of weak sight and suffering from
mental and physical affiiction, evidently
was no match. In her complaint Mrs Rose
alleges:
That on July ;. 1899. defendants; MeNevins
and George 4. Stevens, through fraud, trick
and device and with intent to swindle and
cheat plaintiff, induced plaintiff TO purchase
ing-house at 7l5 Eighth street, for $500, WAen
they well knew at the time that said fixtures
and furnishings were not worth more than s5O9
that they also represented that the place was
a going and would give plaintiff a good
living and $100 per month clear.
Relying upon the representations on account
of the lady-like appearance OF Phoebe A. Nc
Nevin and the gentlemanly appearance and
polished manners of A. D. McNevin and G. A.

plausible way in which they explained she
could make q good living she paid over to de
