Grinaldi went outside, to return with
small package, wrapped in a news
paper.
You're loafer, you're a bum,
Grinaldi said again in Italian.
You're a liar" answered Piagrulini.
Then GrinaIdi drew his scalloped edged
knife from the package and ran it into
the others body. Cries from bystand-
ers brought in Policeman David Sulli-

taken to the central emergency hos
'pital. The dying man there identified
his assailant, but refused to make a
statement, protesting that he was going

TO GUST CHAMBER
FROM CITY HALL
Alameda Councils Intended Ac-
ton Called Spite Work by
Former Officials

ALAMEDA, Oct 6.-The chamber of
commerce, which has occupied COM
modious quarters in the city council
chamber in the city for over two years,
free of charge, may be ousted and
forced to seek shelter elsewhere. Mayor
William II. Noy and several, members
of the city council believe that it is
time that the chamber of commerce
moved from the citys building, even
though it has to pay for lodging in
some other place.
Councilman William Hammond Jr.,
who is a past president of the chamber
of commerce, is of the opinion that a
job is being put up to oust the cham
ber of commerce from the city hall
and he has no hesitation in saying so.
He wants the organization housed in
the city hall, although it is in no way
connected with the municipal govern
ment. He asserts that the chamber
of commerce has done much good and
that for this reason it should be al
lowed to have free quarters in the hall.
Mayor Noy in replying to Hammond
said that the chamber of commerce had
been permitted to occupy quarters In
the city hail for more than two years
without paying any rent and he con-
Siuereu lndl as the city now nad use
for the room the chamber of commerce
should provide its own quarters The
mayor remarked that the Alameda i'm
provement club had provided it's own
meeting places and now owned the
building in which its meetings are held.
The matter of causing the chamber
of commerce to move from its city hall
quarters has been referred to the build
ing committee of the council for fur
ther consideration and rpn0rt ia av-
pected at the next session of the
council.
Some of the members of the cham
Der of commerce profess to see in the
ousting move of the city council and

slstency in advocating the annexation of

UNDERWRITERS PERMIT
ORDINANCE ILLEGAL
Judge Cabaniss Declares Consti-
tuition Violated

The city ordinance requiring under
takers and embalmers to obtain a per-
nit to carry on their business was de-
clared unconstitutional by Judge Ca
baniss Tuesday. This decision was
rendered in the case of H p. Petersen,
who was arrested for violating the
ordinance and who applied for a writ
of habeas corpus.
Judge Cabaniss held the ordinance,
which was approved June IL, 1905, to
be in violation of the section of the
United States constitution guarantee
ing every American citizen the right
to engage in any lawful occupation.
The calling of an undertaken is a
lawful one, and therefore any law
which purports to vest in an official.
board or person the authority to arbi-
trarily permit or decline to permit any
any one to engage in it is necessarily
and manifestly unconstitutional" the
judge said.
There is, however, a regulatory
power in the supervisors which thew
may exercise in SO far as public health
demands, but the power to absolutely
forbid man enga ging in the business
is another thing altogether"
The order OF the court was that
Peterson be discharged from custody.
