SEEK SURCEASE
Of RANCE WAR
Stockmen Will Ask Con-
gress to Make an
Investigation.

CHICAGO, Oct. 16.-Martin D. Madden
has been selected as chairman of the COM
mittee on arrangements for the fifth an
nual convention of the National Live
stock Association which will meet here
the first week in December There is
unusual interest in this meeting for the
reason that the convention will take up
some important questions, which will be
referred to Congress direct from the con-
vention.
The stockmen, it is said, will ask Con-
greSs to appoint a special committee to
investigate conditions on the public ranges
and report back a plan for the future
government of the ranges in such a way
that the conflicts between sheep and catz
tie grazers may be averted. Ranges are
becoming so overcrowded that the strug-
gle for grass is resulting in almost daily
conflict in which bloodshed is becoming
frequent.
Another important question to be con-
sidered is bill providing for Government
inspection and the tagging of all wooden
manufactures to show the percentage of
"shoddy' and cotton used in all alleged
woolen fabrics. These and other questions
fully as important are expected to draw
to this meeting the largest gathering of
stockmen in the history of the country.
Madden will select committee of prom
inent business men to assist him in pro-
viding entertainment for the visitors. AS
the International Livestock Exposition
will be in session at the same time it is
expected there will be over 100000 stock
men here.

POLICEMAN PREVENTS A
DOMESTIC TRAGEDY
Former Army Officer Is Stopped in
the Act of Draining His
Wife.

OAKLAND, Oct. 1e.-The opportune ar
rival Of Policeman William Quigley to-
day at the Windsor Hotel prevented Cul-
lom Calhoun Mitchell, former lieuten-
ant in the Fortieth Infantry, u S. v.
from Draining his wife with silver water
pitcher. The patrolman burst into the
room just as the eX-soldier had uplifted
the heavy vessel and was about to smash
it upon Mrs. Mitchells head. Quigley ran
in and knocked the pitcher out of the
enTaged husbands hand, subduing that
worthys attempt to continue the encoun-
ter.
Mitchell was sent to the City Prison to
cool off. He had been drinking heavily.
Yesterday, his wife says, he kept loaded
pistol at her head for hours. Twice she
called upon the police, but she escaped
from the apartments before they ap-
peared.
To drink Mrs. Mitchell attributes her
husbands outbreak. They were welded
here two years ago after a romantic at
tachment formed in Mississippi, when she
was the wife Of another man. Being di-
Vorced, she followed Mitchell to Califor-
MIA while he was route to the Philip
pines. After MitchellS discharge from the
army the troubles began. Although he is
a member of a prominent family Of Jack
son, Miss, and his wife was a belle of
kentucky, the ex-army officer dropped
from his social position and became ac-
cording to his wife, brutal and insanely
violent from liquor.
Mrs. Mitchell announced that she would
return to Kentucky, but she refused to
swear to a complaint against her hus-
band.

BUILDING TRADES COUNCIL
STILL UNABLE TO AGREE
All Efforts to Bring About an Ami

Far Failed

OAKLAND. Oct. 16.-The efforts to ad-
Just the differences in the Building Trades
Council Of Alameda County seem almost
hopeless. The struggle between the fac
tions headed by J. H. Mullen and D. A.
Shannon is still unsettled. An effort to
hold & meeting Of the council as 1T was
recently revised has failed, for the Shan
non men remained away. They represent
the carpenters, millmen, painters and
Iongshorennen, while the Mullen fol-
lowers represent the various stone
trades, electrical men, lathers and
others. The Shannon men say that
they represent the largest number Of
union men numerically, but owing TO
the system of representation they have
the smallest number of delegates, and so
they refuse to attend. Mullen recently
secured control Of the council and was
elected business agent against Shannon,
who q few months before had defeated
Mullen. Mullen has the backing of the

FINISHING WORK
On THE LIBRARY
Trustees Adopt Classic
Designs for Chill
dren's Room.
-

OAKLAND. Oct. 16.-Plans of ornate
classic design, from the hands Of CoXhead
& Coxhead, architects, have been adopted
by the board of free library trustees for
the decoration Of the childrens room in
the new public library building, which
work is to be done under the direction
of the EbelI Society The scheme of dec
oration is quite elaborate, yet ample al
lowance is made for the needs of the
apartment, which is to be reserved for
the exclusive use Of the youth who are
patrons of the library.
The floor space allotted to this depart
ment approximates 1000 square feet, the
room being rectangular The chief feature
of the interior finish is series of classic
pillaring providing a basis for the exten-
sion book stacks where GOO volumes will
be accommodated On the east and west
sides Of the room will be inches for statu-
ary, the rear wall being left blank for
such mural decoration as may be desired.
A frieze of conventional design will re-
lieve the upper wall space and there will
also be decorative work about the six
alcoves and settles which have been ar
ranged on the east and west sides of the
room The window space has been left
clear that ample natural light be had
during the daytime
Architect Z. Coxhead in submitting his
plans of decoration explained that the
general scheme would be worked out in
stucco, with light tints for coloring. The
floor will be laid in polished oak, with
cedar book racks. The estimated cost of
the work, exclusive Of movable furniture
is $50O0
Formal application has been made to
the trustees by the library committee Of
the Ebell Society for permission to furnish
the children's room, without cost to the
city. upon the plans which have been
adopted by the board. The trustees have
given their formal consent that this shall
be done. The legal side Of the matter has
been referred to the City Attorney for
an opinion upon the point whether the
trustees can lawfully delegate the priv
ilege to the ladies of the society.
There is nothing more TO be done toward
the completion of the library building ex-
cept to install the furnishings and light
fixtures. Plans for this work have been
submitted to the trustees and they have
ordered preliminary estimates and bids.
The cost will be in the neighborhood Of
$500. The trustees are hopeful that they
will be able to surmount the financial diff
ficulties that confront them and have the
new library structure complete and ready
for service before many months have
passed.
1t is expected that the Ebell Society will
very shortly take the final action neces-
sary to raise the money required to com
plete the children's department

REFUSES To SIGN
THE WATER BILLS
Current Accounts Are

Allows No Claims of Com

Oakland Office San Francisco Call,


111S Broadway, Oct. 16.
Current bills of the Contra Costa Water
Company for supplying the Chabot OBJ
servatory and the Oakland and the Cen
tral High School buildings have been re-
jected by City Auditor Breed. The Audi
tor has also refused to allow bills for
water furnished the Health Department,
his reasons in all of these cases being re-
cited in a communication which was filed
to-day with the Board Of Education and
the Board of Health.
The Auditor insists that the bills are
Illegal claims because there exists no con-
tract between the city and the water COM
pany to supply water. He also maintains
that the company has failed to pay the
license tax due to the city under ordl-
nance, and he finally declares that he has
numerous other reasons which were
brought out during the argument in the
mandamus suit which the company
brought against him.
Refusal to audit those bills, as well as
Board Of Public Works, has led that body
to take action. Instead of continuing to
hold the bills In their possession pending
a settlement Of the legal difficulties In
volved the Commissioners to-day ordered
the rejected claims returned to the va
r1Cus departments from which the ac-
counts were sent. Whether the bills can
dered paid Is another phase of the fight
that was given light to-day. But it is
just as certain that no matter which de-
partment of the city government shall
approve the bills the Auditor will con-
tinue to refuse to audit them until there
has been a final judicial opinion rendered
upon the disputed questions

1118 Broadway, Oct. 16-
Passengers and pedestrians passing in
the neighbOrhoOd of Forty-seyenth and
Grove streets at an early hour this morn
ing were astonished al the sight of the
stuffed figure of man hanging in mid
air from one of the cross supports for
the trolley wires that line the street.

THE COMMITTEE.
By prearrangement fifty men met at
the power house at FOrty-seventh and
Grove streets after working hours last
night and expressed their feeling against
straw, labelling it and running 1t up to
the wire support. After accomplishing
their purpose the men dispersed to their
homes and nobody knew OF their vista
tion until this morning, when the people
saw the figure swinging in the breeze.
De CaScia's fellow employees have taken
dislike TO him since his refusal to in
any way express sorrow for the death OF
Conductor Edward TharSinS, who was
Killed by falling off his car. De Cascia
and Tharsing had been mOtOrmdn and
conductor on the same car for several
years. They were together when Thar
sing met his death ana were members OF
the same fTaternal order, yet De CaScIa
refused to contribute a cent toward the
subscription for q floral piece, and during
the funeral kept his place on his car
De Cascia saw himself in efhgy when he
took his car out this morning, but did not
comment upon it. Later in the day the
figure was taken down and he was re-
heved of the necessity Of being compelled
to see it every half hour.
