Terr popular young man and is at present employed in the County Recorders office in Oskland He was seen yesterday by a Chromcl reporter and told the story the attempt to make nim giro up a bribe Last Saturday afternoon said he I received a message at my office to the effect that Mr Young wanted to see me on political business I made an engagement and met him at 4 oclock in a back room He told me that we might juit as well get down to business at once and then he opened up on his proposition He said tbat he could control 400 votes in the town but these were not enough to elect him He suggested tbat if I paid him 75 at once he would guarantee to turn me over 400 votes on election day Besides this be said he would agree to deliver to me the Peoples party nomination for the office at once He also said that he bad the indorsement of a secret organization and that he would turn that over to me if I would put up the money I refused to havr anything to do with bis scheme and toll him so He then opened up on me and aid tbat there would be no use for me to try to expose him as it was simply my word against bis He said that he would flatly deny that be bad made me any proposition I told him I would se about tbat After i bad him identified by several people we parted company I am going to see my friends to day and we will then decide what course we pursue in the matter I do not know

occupying that position although it is understood that they will now retire from the management of the estate Tbe main points involved In the com plaint of the heirs were with respect to the manner in which certsin money was handled The heirs claimed that funds which were Idle in the bank should have been invested They found fault also with tbe fact that tbe executors loaned 8 Emery and Abner Dobie 13500 on a promissory note without security Another ciuse of trouble was over the family allowance The executors wanted to charge Mis Susie Harms one of the daughters with 500 as her share of tbe allowance which was paid to her after the attained her majority She was married recently and her husband objected on the ground that his wife had taken charge of the home and cared for tbe minor

aggregate may possibly be accounted for lrom this fact BAMKoin tats cttr April 2d the wife of Ber GAJUolntYofason REA In Colma AprU 20 the wife of William Keavofason SCHICK Til Oaklaaa AprU 25 the

North Reach and Mission Railroad Company A double track was laid on the thoroughfare the following year Before cars could be pur on tne Omnibus Company succeeded in absorbing its rlvsl and the road

possessor of its rights and privileges No service was ever given on Army street and tbe right of way of the mllroad bns been permitted to lake care of itself The rights ol tbe combine hare long since
