NO LONGER
HACK LINE TERMINAL
Oakland Cabbies Refuse to
Venture Across Into
College Town
ONE ARRESTED, THERE
Say Belated Persons Must
Hoof 1t or Sleep in
Larger City
ONE ARRESTED THERE

OAKLAND, Feb. 20.-Belated Berke-
leyans who purpose making their way
homeward by means OF Oakland night
hawk hackmen must look to other
means II the threats OF the cabbies to
boycott the college town prove effect
i've. The hackmen purpose to draw a
line and the line will be the boundary
between this city and the neighbor on
the north. Right there, say the owl
drivers, they will stop.
They have involved Berkeleys Police
Department in the sQuabble and they
insist that, unless peace is restored,
hack rides in that direction will be
at premium for long time to come.
c. II. Shaw, hack driver, took a
party Of Berkeleyans from Oakland to
their homes. He was stopped on the
journey by a Berkeley policeman, ar
rested and compelled to pay the local
hack license before he was permitted
TO resume his interrupted trip. The ar
rest aroused the other cabmen, who,
after much discussion, decided that
tney would hereafter cease to accept
trips to the college town.

POLICE RAID DEN BY
ORDER OF GRAND JURY
Dive on Jackson Street Is
Closed Without Aid
From Oman

Ignoring Chief OF Police Dinan COM
pletely as the principal guardian of
peace and order in the city. the Grand
Jury issued orders to Captain Martin
of the Central police station yesterday
to close up the notorious den a $40
Jackson street. Chief Dinan did not
know anything of the impending raid
until he was advised of the fact by
Captain Martin.
That's all right" was all that the
Chief had TO say in response.
About dozen patrolmen, headed by
Captain Martin. marched to the ..mu-
nicfpal den" last night and notified the
inmates to vacate at once The orders
from the Grand Jury did not ccntem-
plate the arrest of any of the women
so they were permitted to depart un-
molested. Eighty-two Of the tribute
payers hurriedly packed up and left.
The reasons for ignoring Chief Dinan
are that he is under indictment by the
Grand Jury. and has heretofore shown
reluctance In carrying out similar or
ders from the Grand Jury. 1t is gen
orally believed that the raid last night
was the beginning of general cleaning
out Of the Kearny tenderIoin
Edward Henderson, proprietor of the
Alturas. on Golden Gate avenue learned
that his place would be raided by Cap
tain Mooney if women were allowed to
visit 1T, and he voluntarily locked up
his back rooms last night and turned
the red lights out.

In the new tenderloin in Golden Gate
avenue and vicinity were busy yester-

with which to engage attorneys to fight
