CITY MARSHAL MAY
SEIZE PROPERTY
Ocean View Will Compel Tele-
phone Company to Pay a
License Tax

BERKELEY, June 15.-Following
the protest of the citizens of Ocean
View at a meeting of the board of
trustees last night, Town Marshal
Chris Miller has been instructed by the
board to collect a license of $3.50 from
the Pacific States telephone and tele-
graph company, by force if necessary.
The telephone company in Ocean View
declared Mayor Frank j. Roberts last
night, and quick action was taken.
The corporation was served notice
today to pay the amount of the license
imposed by the newly incorporated
municipality Should the company re-
fuse, their equipment in the city will
be seized and another tax put on their
long distance wire poles.
The protests before the board last
night followed a controversy between
the city and the telephone company,
which has been waging since the in
corporation of the new municipality.
At that time plan was on foot to tax
the corporation, but a threat to cut the
city off from telephone communication
baked the trustees.
At the mass meeting last night pro-
tests were made that the service was
poor and improvements made only if
the subscribers. would bear the cost.
In view of the attitude of the resi-
dents of the city and that of the COM
pany toward the service, the collection
of the license which had been imposed
at a former meeting was ordered

taken from the city prison to the Re-

days of suffering from broken spine
has been sent to the Merritt hospital
He is still paralyzed, and his condition
is extremely critical. death seeming in
evitable.
The aftermath of the old man being
found in a helpless condition in his
cell yesterday was an inquiry directed
today by Captain of Detectives Peter
son, who is acting chief of police De-
tective Kyle has been detailed on the
sase and has trailed Keefer's move
ments for two days prior to his arrest
for drunkenness.
The detective learned that the old
man was drinking all the time he wan
dered around, borrowing money at
times from persons he met One night
he is supposed to have passed in an
intoxicated sleep back of a saloon. The
next night was passed in Jail.
The police have failed to find that
Keefer met with foul play, the only
explanation of his condition so far be-
ing a fall to the floor at 4Os Twelfth
street, where Policeman Dolan arrested
Keefer
Jailer Frank Ahern has explained
that the old man when questioned by
him said that he was subject to sudden
attacks of rheumatism.
The fault was in not getting surgi

been attended to by his jailers, for that
is their business But there is no doubt
that such cases would not occur if the
facilities of the jail were adequate
