CUT TELEPHONE
WIRES IN HOMES
Apparatus Rendered
Useless by Bogus
Inspectors.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,


In the guise of an inspector for the tele-
phone company a man gained entrance TO
the residence Of Oscar ]. Backus on Linda
Vista terrace a day or so ago, was given
access to the telephone and deliberately
cut the inside wires in such a way as to
put the instrument completely out of SER
vice. The stranger, yet to be identified,
did his work with evident thorough
knowledge of the apparatus. Detectives
are trying TO locate the mischief maker.
Telephone company officials say that
numerous complaints of similar actions
have been received since the company
put linemen and repair men at work to
take the places of strikers.
In the Backus case the circumstances
point to deliberate effort to injure and
destroy use of telephones. The phone at
the residence had been out of order and
a complaint was sent to the telephone
companys offices. From there an en-
ploye went to the house and regulated
the telephone putting it in working con-
dtion. Shortly after this employe de-
parted another man called at the house
and announced that he desired to exam
Inc the phone
But a man has just been here and
fixed the phone" explained Mr.. Backus.
"Oh, 1 know that replied the caller,
"but l am an inspector for the company
and must pass upon the work DONE"
Upon that showing the caller was ad-
mitted. He worked about the box for
a short time and then left the house.
Shortly afterward the phone failed to
work and word was again sent to the
company Another repairer reported and
he found the cut wire. Backus believes
that the wire cutter had been trailing
the first workman and followed him up
to get a chance to do his mischief.

Oakland ONCE San Francisco Call,

LILO Diodu"dy, sept. 3.
Those citizens of Alameda that oppose
the Southern Pacific Companys demands
for a fifty-year franchise have carried
their cause to the courts. They would
have the City Trustees enjoined from
granting away their rights
H. Rosenthal, H. A THOMPSON 7. x

B. c. Combs and William M. Rowers
constituting the Board of Trustees To
appear before Judge Greene on October
2 and show cause why they should NOT
submit the proposition of granting the
franchises petitioned for to the popular
vote of the people.
Their petition recites that unless re-
strained the Board of Trustees win grant
the franchises in violation of an ordinance
passed by a Board of Trustees in March
1888, known as ordinance No 30. which
states that whenever 10 per cent of the
legal voters of the city of Alameda sbaII
petition in writing therefor the Board ~
Trustees shall submit to said voters such
proposition of local interest as NAV he
specified in said petition, said submission
to be made for the purpose of enabling the
sa4u FolelS " eApleSS tHelr approval or
disapproval of the question to be voted
upon"
The petition states that there has been
a petition of 10 per cent or the bona fide
residents of the city presented to tbe
Board of Trustees asking, in accordance
with the ordinance No. go, that the nron-
osition of granting the franchises be snh-
mitted to a vote of the people This tba,,
claim will not be done unless tbe oo,,r+
take action in the matter. and tha cosa
was set by. Judge Hall to be heard he

ing the question whether the refere,d,,r,
enactment was legal or mandatory heins,
satisfied to allow the voters an onnort,,e
nifty to pass on the matter of the disno-
sition of the franchises before final ~
ton is taken by the Alameda governins,
board City Trustees Charles T Han19
mond and B. E. Combs, who were gan-
orally believed to be willing to subni+
the franchise question to the voters
created surprise by voting to have .
fight made against the legality of the
referendum. City Trustees Ir H M
Pond and w. NJ. Bowers voted with
them. To avoid any possibility of being
in contempt of court the City Trustees
agreed not to touch upon the matter of
the franchises in any way until the Su-
perior Court has disposed of the writ of
mandate proceedings.

COURT SCORES
THE EXECUTOR
Interesting Decision in
San Jose Bollinger
Case.
William and George Pullen
Entitled to Part Of
Properly.

San JOSE, Sept. s.-Judge IIyland to-
oay hled his decision in the suit Of Mary
a. l." Bollinger VS.. George Y. Bo,linger
et al, for the recovery Of property of
the late Christian Bollinger. valued at
S4Vo'OOO. Bollinger died January g. 1898. and
upon his death his son, George Y.
Bolhnger, was appointed executor of the
estate. The plaintiff, who is the widow,
was married TO Christian Bollinger No
Vember I, 1880, and both had separate
property, which they retained separately
ana there was no community property
accumulated after their marriage.
On October 15, 1928, the widow filed
Petition Ccntesting the viii, the heirs
being the widow and the children. George.
David, Elizabeth G. and Emma Pare, and
Nary - Pullen, who died in 1898, and
whose children, William and George, were
appointed executors Of her estate.
The evidence, according to the court.
sustains the conclusion that George urged
his father to transfer TO him large
amount Of property in trust TO defeat any
claim plaintiff might make thereto. to
manage and invest the property pru-
IDENTIFY. and to hold it in trust. paying his
father such sums as he might require
for his comfort: and in case of the plain
tihs death 10 transfer all the property
to the father, or in case Of the father $
death to transfer 1t all, share and share
alike, 10 the children.
The court scores the defendant for his
disregard Of business principles in man
aging this property. and declares that he
does not own the property. but simply
holds 1t in trust on the other hand, the
plaintiff has no interest in It whatever,
il having been separate property Of the
husband and she is not entitled to judg-
ment.
The defendants. William and George
Pullen. are entitled to one-fifth of the
property transferred to George, who will
/ be charged with the Quivey ranch. lot
4 of the Bascom tract, several notes of
/ the value Of nearly $50 900; he viii also be
I charged with all the costs Of the action.
/ George Y. Bollinger was formerly Sheriff
I Of Santa Clara County.
