Barber Tells How His Tools Were
Taken From Him.


H. G. Mesa of S95 Ellis street was be-
fore the Claims Department OF the Re-
lief Corporation yesterday and told the
story of how his goods. for which he
demands payment, were taken from

Il secured employment at 1900 Devils
adero street. Soon afterward two men.
representing themselves as doctors
and wearing Red Cross badges, came
up in an automobile. They demanded
my tools, but I refused to give them
up. The men left. Shortly afterward
they returned with two soldiers The
soldiers threatened the proprietor OF
the shop and me with their bayonets.
and while we were thus held up, the
men who called themselves doctors
took all our tools.
II went to the captain who ap-
peared to be in command of the SOL
diers, and he said that he could do
nothing for me. I then went to a
claim for the goods that had lost
followed his advice, but the claim has
been rejected
Employees Of the Relief Corporation
who listen to the complaints of those
who have filed claims for conhscated
goods state that Mesas is a typical
case. The corporation has refused to
pay demands for goods that were
clearly not necessary for relief work.
But there are hundreds Of cases where
such goods were undoubtedly taken
by the soldiers under the plea that
they were needed for relief

ty Assessor Henry P. Dalton withdrew
as q candidate for denomination against
Charles z. Thomas of Berkeley, and
DR. II B. Mehrmann refused TO carry
the fight against Dr. c L Tisdale for
the Coroner's Office onto the floor of
the convention. These moves disposed
Of two Of the three big fights that had
been agitating the political circles for
several weeks. The third was that be-
tween Everett J. Brown and Clarence

gresham Knowland on the other,
fought IL out all the morning, and not
until the final vote was IL a dead GER
tainty who would win. that is. so far az
those on the outside were concerned
Browns friends asserted that they had
21S votes in the convention if the fight

BROWN WINS OVER FIFTIETH.
It was upon the Fiftieth District with
its sixty-five delegates that Brown s
people hammered and hammered. Brown

was that il would be for Crowell. For
political reasons il appeared incumbent

this was done.
Because there was contest on, the
nomination OF District Attorney was

The department OF camps finds that
1t will not be required to expend more
than $3.50 at the outside in fitting up
the kitchen and dining-room to be es-
tablished at Ingleside. One objection
to the plan for the corporation to

necessary articles has been prepared
and 1t is found that in the various out
side warehouses are stored dishes,
knives and forks and cooking utensils,
practically everything, In fact. that
