INDECENT SICK
LIE IN CELLAR
State Board of Charities Severe
: ly Criticises Alameda County
Hospital Conditions
Better Care Taken of the Farm
Animals Than of Unfortunate
Human Invalids

OAKLAND, March Occupied with
an appeal for charity for the unfor-
tunate paupers confined there, the Ala
media county hospital is severely scored
in a report of the state board of charl-
ties and corrections, which was lssue1
today. The report says that human pc
ings are confined in attics, in cellars, IN
tumble down shacks and in tents in the
open. After first praising the care
exercised by the authorities of this
county for the brute animals kept at
the farm, and lauding the equipment
and conduct of the central hospital
building for the sick. the report criti-
cises the care of the INDECENT sick as
follows:
Another building used for INDECENT
sick is very bad. There were patients
bed ridden, confined to the attic of this
building up under the roof where the
heat of summer is almost unendur-
able. The indigents are not properly
housed, in fact many of them badly
housed Some are in Easements, some
in attics, some in tumbling down
shacks and some in tents. There are
II tents with from two TO II beds in
each. These are not heated.
The number of patients at the hos
pital has Increased in two years from
315 to 424, but the accommodations
have not increased. Alameda county
has been growing rapidly, but the ac-
commodations at the hospital have not
kept pace with the increased demands.
'The old library became infected with
vermin and germs and for sanitary
reasons had TO be burned. Charity
should provide these people with more
reading matter

ANARCHISTS BODY
IS SPIRITED AWAY
To Mystery of Life Is Added
One in Death When Corpse
Disappears
Sister Is Photographed With
Arms Around Dead Man
in the MOrgue
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL


CHICAGO. March 5.-To mystery
surrounding his life and mystery in
the motive of his attack on Chief Of
Police Shippy another mystery was
added tonight when the body of Laza-
rus Averbuch, the Russian jew assas-
sin. disappeared. The body was sent
from the county morgue TO be taken
to Dunning at 4:3O o'clock I'm the after
noon. 1t was TO be buried in the pot
ters field, but it failed to reach the
poor farm.
Incased in a rough box the body was
carried from the county building TO an
un5ertaker's wagon. The trip toward
Dunning was started in a downpour OF
rain. The journey to the resting place
in the potters field was not completed.
Whether friends of the dead anarchist
agents in the employ Of the sister or
medical students spirited it away no
one can say.
Early today Olga Averbuch was
given permission TO see the body of her
brother. She arrived at the morgue
a few minutes after noon. The body
was lying on a stone slab With a
cry Of pain the girl rushed forward
and threw her arms about the dead
young man.
She pressed the face between her
hands and imprinted kisses on the lips
and forehead. Pushing her hands be-
meath the body she attempted to lift
IL in her arms. She then gave way
to frantic grief. Fearing the girIs
death might result from her frenzied
hysteria attendants took her away.
For two hours she was in a condition
bordering on insanity.
Before the body was taken from the
morgue Miss Averbuch asked and was
permitted TO have a photograph taken
of herself with her arms about The
neck of her brothers body. This done
she was led away sobbing and later,
when she recovered her composUre,
was taken TO her home.
Zest was added today TO a wide po-
lice hunt for Emma Goldman, the
notorious anarchist leader when there
were unearthed sensational statements
which she had published for private
circulation few days ago. Among
these the chief was a commentator
for the assassination OF King Carlos.
While hundreds of police were scour-
ing the city, running down clews and
raiding rendezvous of the reds" high
officials were sitting in an inner Office
and reading Emma's recent anarchistic
remarks. One of these was:
Patience ceases TO be a virtue, and
suddenly the clouds burst King Car
los has been assassinated. Glad It'd
ings. Go. circle the earth and make all
tyrants tremble. The fate of Carlos
viii trace for them events that cast
their shadows before Nemesis still

can fight Its way to liberty"
President Roosevelt is attacked in a
publication Of Emma Goldman's for
various actions and the trend of the
so called observations and comments
is said by the police to incite hatred

ANARCHISTS Go IN HIDING
Men Arrested Are Freed on Dis
turbance Charges i'm Courts

The organized bands of anarchists
that have worked openly in San Fran:
cisco preaching their doctrines in the
streets and public squares are taking
TO cover. The declaration of war
against them made by Chief of Police
Biggy as the result of President Roose-
velt's appeal had its effect. and yester-
day a hall at 1920 Powell street where
a reading room of the order had been
maintained was deserted.
Although all the literature of the
reds" was removed, the hall is still
used as a meeting place for the band.
1t is situated in the rear of carpenter
shop owned by Mark Sappe, who is re-
puted to be their leader.
In scurrying to shelter the reds neg
lected to take along partition of
sheet lining on which had been
sketched in charcoal by one of the
band caricatures of many men. Al
though the drawings were rough a
sketch of the kaiser and another of
Mayor Taylor We're easily recognized
among the lot. One sketch portrayed
monk. Beside it was well drawn pic
ture representing Christ with a halo
above his head.
Carpenter Sappe admitted his mem
bership in the band They were a
group of higher socialists" he said.
Sappe lamented that any anarchist
would be so foolish sto kill priest
while standing before the altar.
such action only retards the an
archy movement" he said 1T makes
of the priest martyr. At times, how
ever, members of the order lose their
heads and act rashly. II is usually the
Italians that fail that way The other
members OF the order are less impuls-
i've"
according to Captain of Detectives
Kelly, there appear TO be two or more
distinct branches of anarehistic or
ganizations in this city, and altogether
Besides the one in the Latin quarter, a
larger one, infesting the district
around Jefferson square, exists.
Reds" of this branch daily gather
in Jefferson square and openly preach
anarchy. The order of Chief Buggy
to break up these meetings had it's ef-
feet with this branch, too and yester-
day, where hundred men generally
attend the meetings, but a handful Of
the most rabid agitators were on hand.
An order was read out at the Bush
street station last night to arrest these
men, Chief Biggy stated that where
sufficient evidence was obtained the
men arrested would be dpeorted A
conference on the matter will be held
today between Chief Biggy and United
States District Attorney Devlin.
One plan to GUST the anarchists was
unfolded yesterday by Chief Biggy
when every man doing detective duty
in the police department was instruct
ed to observe anarchists on their daily
rounds and to report each case to the
office of Captain Kelly. Following the
first order to arrest agitators in the
public parks, the offenders were
charged with disturbing the peace, In
not a single case. however. was a con-
viction secured Chief Biggy said yes
terday that charges of a nature that
would warrant deportation would be
preferred against those arrested here
after.

RAISES APPROPRIATION
Hayes Secures Favorable Action
by House Committee
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALI


WASHINGTON, March 5.-Represen-
tative Hayes today appeared before the
house expositions committee to urge
that a larger appropriation be made
for the participation of the United
States in the Japan exposition to be
held in Tokyo in 1911.
The bill before them called for $780,
900, but Hayes pointed out that Japan
had expended more than s1,225,000 on
expositions in this country. and that
we should appropriate at least s5,000,-
600. Hayes also urged that the gov
ernment furnish transportation across
the Pacific to all American exhibitions
at the Tokyo exposition.
The committee accepted both recon-
mendations made by Hayes, and report
ed the bill as amended TO the house.

INTERSTATE CoMMERCE

We assert the right of congress to exercise
complete control interstate commerce, and
asert the right of each state 20 exercise
just complete control commerce within
its borders. We demand such an enlargement Of
sions may be necessary to give full protection
TO persons and places from discrimination and
extortion. We believe that both the nation and
the various states should: First. ascertain the
present value of the railroads, measured by the
cost of reproductions; second prohibit the issue
of any more watered stock fictitious capital
zation; third, prevent the railroads from engag-
ing in any business which brings them into COM
petition with their shippers; and fourth, reduce
the transportat tion rates until they reach a point
where they will yield only reasonable return
on the present value of the railroads-such rea-
sonsble return being defined a return suff-
cient to keep the stock of the roads at par
when such roads honestly capitalized.
The injury done by issues of watered stock is
more clearly and better understood since
the shrinkage in the market value OF such stock
has precipitated a widespread panic and brought
enormous loss to the country. The panic has
also emphasized the necessity for legislation pro
tecting the wealth producers from spoliation at
the hands of the stock gamblers and the gam
blers in farm products.
