FRIDAY EVENING OAKLAND TRIBUNE OCTOBER 2, 1003 3 HOT SEE II MISS JACQUELINE MOORE IS ENGAGED. SOUTHERN PACIFIC IIS HUT. 1. HE FRANCHISE QUESTION NEED NOT, BE PUT TO VOTE IK ALAMEDA. WITNESSES TESTIFY IN TRIAL OF JTILLMAN MURDER CASE.

WEARY BATTLE G. THE MISS JACQUELINE MOORE. An engagement that will be Interesting to society people on both sides of the bay has Just been made public. It is th at of Miss Jacqueline Moore and J. J.

Valentine. The engagement has existed for some time, but it has Just been form ally announced. The date for the wedding has not yet been definitely fixed, but it will probably take place some time thjs fall. Miss Moore is the accomplished and beautiful daughter of A Moore, the well-known attorney, who resides at the comer of Sixth avenue and East Twentieth street. Miss Moore graduated from the Oakland High School and took a course in one of the Eastern colleges.

She is very popular Oakland society. Mr. Valentine, who is at present in Portland where he Was business Interests, is the son of the late J. J. Valentine, for a number of years president of the Wells-Fargo Express Company.

He is a well-informed, and progressive young business man. possible, publicity, especially In advance in this case. If the other side forces our hand that will be different. Our purpose is to make as little as possible out of it now, but when we get into court that will be another matter. Instead of the sOn doing anything which would perhaps warrant the father disinheriting him.

It is the father who has done wrong and punished the son for it, and Instead of reform being needed in the son it Is the father in whom the son sought to effect a reformation. The chances of the citizens Ala- meda to express themselves at a general election, with regards to the granting to the Southern Bacific Railway, certain franchises asked for by that corporation went a glimmering before a Judicial inquiry into the matter before Judge Greene this morning. While up to the noon hour no decision had been made by the judge he stated that Ordinance 270 of the City Trustees of Alameda was a faulty delusion and of lit- tie account. The matter came up this morning on a petition filed by H. Rosenthal, H.

A. Thompson, J. H. Houck, and T. Balrd representing the Board of Trade of Alameda, asking that the matter of granting certain franchises asked for by the railroad be first submitted to the vote of the people at a general elec-r tion, according to the provisions of an ordinance passed by a former City Council.

The ordinance in effect provided that upon the demand of ten per cent of the legal voters of the city any matter of public interest should first' be submitted to a vote of th people before final action being taken by the City Council. The petition asKed that the present City Council, consisting of Joseph F. Ford-erer. H. M.

Pond, C. J. Hammond, B. C. Coombs and William M.

Bowers be restrained from granting the franchises asked for by the railway, and further stated that if they were not restrained they would graDt them, until such time as the matter had been first submitted to the people. The City Council was represented by City Attorney Milton W. Simpson, while the petitioners' side of the case was looked out for by Thomas K. Kase. Upon examination of the ordinance It was found that nowhere did it contain a clause empowering the City Council ta can a special election ror such a purpose as asked in the petition.

Neither does it state whether such a vote shall be at a special election or general The authority of City Council to bind the act of a future Council was also questioned. A stated by the judge the entire matter ad been left in such an indefinite condition that there was little in it that it did state positively with authority. In avor of the writ Kase had Httlo ground to stand on. He threw general discretion upon the matter onto the Court, which the Judge evinced little disposition to assume and adjourned the matter over until the afternoon for decision. In summing up his opinion In regard to the validity of the Alameda ordinance, which granted the right to tea per-cent of the voters to demand that any matter of public interest be first submitted to a vote of the people before being acted upon by the Council Judge Greene' said this afternoon: "I may state to you further, gentlemen, that I do not believe that from the very first that this ordinance is worth the paper it is written on.

I sustain the demurrer to the petition asking for an injunction against the Council and dissolve the temporary restraining order."

Wallace, an employe of the State, said he removed the overcoat from Editor Gonzales when he was carried into the "State" office after the shooting, and that he saw no weapons in the pocket of the coat. C.

J. Terrell, editor of a newspaper In Florence county, was asked by Solicitor Thurmond if he ever heard Tillman making any threats. He replied that he was walking along the streets of Edgefield with Colonel Tillman in the early summer of 1902 and Tillman said he "was going to be Governor ar.d if Gonzales attacked him he was going down to kill him, and I think he said, like a dog." On cross-examination the witness was questioned by counsel for the defense as to his personal feeling against the defendant, and as to an editorial he had written concerning the shooting. He said he had never written a line In his paper denouncing the defendant as an i DISASTROUS COLLISION ON THE S. P.

The head brakeman went back to chain up while the fireman went to flag the first section of No. 6, which was coming. It being on a curve, the passenger engineer did not see the flagman until the trains were almost together and it was impossible to prevent the crashing together of the powerful engines. Both engine crews jumped and both engines were demolished. Large gangs of workmen built a track around the wreck and the road was ready for traffic by four o'clock this morning.

The dead and injured were taken on the second section of No. 6 to Ogden, with the exception of Fireman Stone and Grant Pyle, of San Francisco, who were transferred to No. 5 and went to San Francisco.

The Coroner's Jury yesterday returned a verdict of accidental death in the case of the little colored boy. Doudn J. Martin, Who drank coal oil at Golden Gate Wednesday. Glerks Go At Each Other in Hammer and Tongs Style. SAN FRANCISCO.

Oct 2. Charles S. Arms, ex-State Senator and warrant clerk at the United States Mint, and Patrick T. Ionnelly. abstract clerk of.

the big money-making factory, are suspended from duty, and it may b. that they will both be dismissed from service as Mint employes. Yesterday, shortly before noon, the two men engaged in a terrific fist fight in the office where they were employed, and both men were corisiderbly battered up. Donnelly, who is oVer six feet tall and Ms eligible to fight in the, heavyweight class, had his nose broken and one eye4closed, and he only quit when he received a punch that sent him to the floor and he remained there several minutes unconscious. Arms' face looks as though it had been pounded with a sledge-hammer.

Both eyes are bruised and nearly closed. He has lumps on his heed, and numer-r ous contusions on his face and shoulders ehow where the heavy of the big clerk landed. The two men have not been on friendly terms for months, and they have had numerous scraps, but never before indulged In blows. Several times each day Arms is obliged, in the dlschaXfce of his duties, to check over the entries in his books with the books kept by Don-1 nelly. The two men had been at tnat work and found that their books did not tally.

Arms was about to leave Donnelly's desk and had collected his books In a bundle under his arm when words passed. Each blamed the other for the discrepancy. The lie was passed in the V. wordy war and then a fist shot out. Thtere was no one els In the room and the men had it all to themselves.

Arms, In tell- lng the story, said he protected himself for a time as well as he could wun tne bundle of books be held, but when they were knocked from him he was obliged to fight back for his ewn -protection. Both men have weight and strength, and they landed heavily on each other. When fellow clerks, attracted by the noise of the struggle, reached the room Donnelly was stretched out on the floor with eyes shut and Arms could scarcely see past the bruises about his eyes, but he was stan(ing defiant, but groggy, yet ready to renew the battle A should his bulky adversary desire It. COMMISSIONERS HEAR COUNSELS, LONDON. Oct.

2. Sid Edward Carson, the solicitor general, consumed the morn-; lng session of the Alaskan Boundary Commission today in endeavoring to re-' fufce the arguments of David T. Watson and Hannis Taylor, of counsel for the United States, especially protesting against Mr. Taylor's contention that the term "trend of the coast" could only apply to the political coast line and not to the physical coast line. The solicitor general concluded with an eloquent reference to Great Britain's un-'' willingness to give Tip any of her subjects into the control of other nations.

When Jacob M. Ditkir.son, or counsel for the United States) rose to conclude the arguments, the Mom was filling up with spectators. He commenced by belittling the minute examinations of maps and the bickering oVer words and details. declaring that the case could only be set-tied by grasping the central idea animat- ing the original negotiators. BANKERS STRANDED, BALTIMORE, October 2.

There was no disturbance in financial circles here today over, the announcement that the well-known banking house of J. William Middendorf Co. and John L. Williams Eons had asked their creditors for an extension of time. Leading bankers and brokers were ready to lend helping hands to prevent any temporary unsettlement of the market from going too far, but this was unnecessary.

President Williams of Seaboard Air Line and Middendorf Co. have received during the Hay many telegrams of sympathy and offers of aid. Among them was the following': jW "New York, October 2. Hope you will speedily arrange temporary difficulties, you have our best wishes, and we wish we could help you in some way further. "(Signed), EDWIN GOULD." LARGE SlfT SAN FRANCISCO.

W. Davis, a colored footpad, to a halt, but a few minutes later he was found by Policeman Barnett, who had pluckily followed him to his lair, was Identified by his victim, and was booked at the City Prison for highway robbery. It was shortly after 2:30 o'clock this morning that Policeman Barnett noticed a pair of colored men acting suspiciously on Jackson street, between Front and Battery. They were following a third who was very much under the influence of liquor, and as the trio drew near to Front street, one of the colored men walked up quickly to the man they were following, struck him a heavy blow- behind the ear and knocked him down. As he lay half-dazed on the pavement the men who had knocked him down proceeded to go through his pockets while his companion stood guard to give warning of any one's approach.

It was at this juncture that Barnett came running up to them. The lookout saw him. and giving warning to his companion, both started at breakneck -speed down Jackson street. As they turned into Battery street Barnett fired his revolver into the air, but it did not cause them to slacken their speed, and when he reached the corner both had disappeared. STRUNG UP THREE TIMES (Continued From Page 1).

as the result of last evening's trouble at this place. Those injured are: John Woo.druff, marshal of Oxford, believed to be fatally shot. Jacob Manrod, deputy marshal, ser iously shot in the back and in the shoulder. Ernest Jotten, a county school teach er of Monroe. Ohio, believed to be fa tally shot in the abdomen.

Louis Splvey, of Wagonville, Ken tucky, seriously shot in the back and breast. Joseph Spivey, also of Wagonville, skull fractured by stone. The Spivey brothers were visiting Edward Richardson, of Blllingsville, Indiana, just across the State line from Oxford. The three came to attend the annual street fair and exposition. The town was filled with strangers when these three men began carousing in a saloon.

They pulled their revolvers on the bartender, who elected them, and thv proceeded to raise more trouble in other salohns. When Marshal Woodruff un dertook to arrest them he was mortally shot. A fusillade of shots in the crowd followed. Deputy Marshal Manrod was shot twice when he took the place of his chief. During this fusillade in the street.

Ernest Jotten, while returning from his school to his boarding house, was struck in the abdomen by a stray bullet and he is now In a critical condition. After the shooting the three men ran in different directions, with crowds after each one, and each was hit in the head with stones thrown by those who were pursuing them. Louis Spivey was shot by a citizen. The excitement was intense when the three men were finally lodged In jail after running a mile from the scene of the shooting. Edward Richardson was dismissed after it was shown that he had nothing to do with the shooting, and was only accompanying the Spivey brothers.

BATTERED DOWN DOORS. The crowds that had been pursuing the three men in different' directions finally concentrated about the Jail and battered down the doors and took Joseph Spivey out to lynch him. There possiblly was never such an experience of anyone in the hands of a mob as his. He was hauled from place to place with a rope around his neck and swung up three different times and yet escaped with his lifo in their baste the mob did not pinion his arms or his legs rand ha managed to use them so as to prevent strangulation the nrst time ne was hung. MOB AT BAY.

At another time he was let down so that he might write a farewell letter to his wife and children, and at another time someone cut the rope. Before the mob finally succeeded in hanging him until dead, the officers grabbed him and rushed him off to the City Prison, where the mob was held at bay for some time and finally order enough was secured for speeches to be made by ex-Mayor FLannigan, Rev. Dr. Thomas J. Potter and the brother of Marshal Woodruff.

While the speeches were being delivered, the officers spirited the Spivey brothers into the cellar of the Jail and thence out through a coal chute and made good their escape with them to the Butler county Jail at Hamilton, Ohio, a distance of fifteen miles. The mob then, finding that It had been beaten, dispersed and the village was quiet during the latter part of the night. NO LEADER. This village, with its three large institutions of learning, is noted for Its culture and order, but it was the scene over a year ago of a lynching of Henry Corbin, a negro, for the murder of Mrs. Horner.

and I striklne feature of the attemnted lynching last night was the part taken to the negroes, who protested every time the rope was slackened and Joseph Spivey was let down to say his prayers, write to his wife and children, or for any other purpose of mercy. Some of the negroes raised quite a disturbance while proclaiming that if the man had been a negro he would surely have been lynched in the first place without anyone giving heed to his appeals. The mob was without a leader at any time, but still it would not have been foiled but for the appeals of Woodruff's brother to let the law take its course. MRS. HUDSON DEAD.

Mrs. Annie M. Hudson, widow, and a native of New Tork; died yesterday at '970 West street. She was the mother of Mrs. J.

E. George and Miss Helen M. and Edna E. Hudson. The funeral services will be held at her residence tomorrow at 9:30 a.

m. and the remains will be shipped to Marysville for interhent' in the family plot. Noted Character Takes His Life Across the Bay. SAN FRANCISCO, October 2. Lewis P.

Ward, the compositor who committed sicide yesterday was a charcter of local fame extending through the past generation. He was nearly 70 years old when he died and was well known about town. He had many claims to distinction, the least of which was that he was a head -setter in the composing room of a morning paper for more than twenty years. Ward began his trade in Virginia City in the boom days. There he touched elbows withrMark Twain.

The two sat at adjoining classes and it as while there, that Twain (Samuel L. Clemens) wrote the furiously funny tale of the Jumping frog of Calaveras, which was the basis of his subsequent world-wide reputation. Ward remembered the composition of that story one rainy night when copy was scarce and the two typesetters were trying vainly to arouse mutual Interest In a game of mumble-le-peg on the Ink barrel. Twain suddenly stopped the game, yawned, 'walked to the case and began setting up a story that the next morning appeared under the head of "The Jumping Frog and How He Flew." Ward was the first man to read a tale that later was translated into seven languages and created literary discussion that embroiled the editors of the leading Eastern magazines. Ward corrected the first proof.

Earlier In his life the compositor had the advantages of a fine education. He went to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. There he was a classmate of Geqrge Dewey, now Admiral of the fleeta of the United States. In his school days Ward whipped Dewey behind the barracks after mess in the evening. All his life he an expert boxer.

For the past twerjty years he was ranked as one of the best at the Olympic Club, though it was in a street or saloon fight where he made his best showing. Often he has mixed up with a man twice his weight and come out the victor. He was small, not over five feet six inches in height, but be had the dauntless courage of a bantam gamecock. As one of hi3 Olympic Club chums put it this morning: "He was a clever fellow with his dukes." IS HIT WITH As the result of an encounter with a former1 tenant, Edward Lane, is confined to his home with serious injuries about the head, inflicted by E. L.

Blackman last evening. Blackmanhas been occupying a coal and grain store at the corner of Fourteenth and High streets, owned by Lane, for the past four years. Some time time ago, he was given notice to vacate on October 1. and yesterday the men became involved in numerous disputes over the removal of Blackman's property and there was considerable ill feeling between them. Last evening between 6 and 7 clock Lane passed the store and found the doors of the same, as well as those bf the storage barn, left wide open.

He went to the residence of Blackman nearby to procure the keys. He was met on the porch by Blackman. who ordered him off the premises and called him names. Lane resented1 it and made a pass at him but missed. Lane came back at him, striking him on the fore head over the left eye with a heavy piece of iron.

Lane fell off the porch, striking the ground, some distance away, with great force. A Mrs. Spire, who resides at Lane's residence and who was looking for him because he was late coming home, hap pened along at this period and called for assistance immediately. Lane was picked up In an unconscious condition with a big gash just above the left eye and both his eyes were closed. On the back of his head, there was another bad cut caused by the contact with the ground.

Dr. Callan was called who dressed the Injury. A warrant was sworn out for Black- man's arrest on the charge of assault witn a deadly weapon and he was re leased on depositing 51000 bonds. The case was to have come up in Judge vreary a court tnis morning, but was postponed because Lane was unable to appear in court. The injured man is resting easily to day although he suffers quite consider ably from the cuts and the shock.

fc SAYS THE CAPITALIST WAS INSANE. (Continued From Page 1.) quited, more especially because the father, as the son alleges, allowed himself to be Influenced against his offspring by persons with prejudice and sinister motives. The people whose conduct in this respect is being criticized by the eon are the stepmother and the housekeeper, MrscWllkinson, to the latter of whom Lloyd left $500. The other children of the dead capitalist are Mi6s Mabel Lloyd, Lieutenant Charles R. Lloyd and Miss Ethel Lloyd.

The elder Lloyd died a few months ago in Japan. He had entirely recovered from the wounds he had sustained from the pistol bullets fired Into him by his nephew and heart failure was the ailment to which his death was attributed, although he had only a short time previously partaken oa board ship of a French dinner. The shooting of Lloyd by his nephew, Boxall, was one of the most exciting of the many recent tragedies Southern California because of the blood relationship which existed between the assailed and the assailant and because of the resolution displayed by the young man to avenge a wrong which he felt the aged capitalist, according to Boxall's story, had perpetrated upon some members of Box-all's family. THE SHOOTING. Boxall went to Lloyd's house and deliberately opened fire upon him.

Lloyd Qed in terror from the grounds to the roadway and there, with two bullets in his body, Jumped into the wagon of a passing farmer whom he urged to whip up his horse with a view. to escaping more of the flying missiles. The ycung man's revolver was emptied in the fusillade, but the fleeing capitalist escaped further in- Jury. His life was despaired of. Boxall was arrested, charged with an attempt to commit murder.

Lloyd, however, recovered and was supposed to be in good health for a man of 60 years of age, when death suddenly claimed him and thus removed the only one who was Interested in prosecuting the case against Boxall. The last-mentioned young man is now in Ventura For several weeks the greatest interest was displayed by the public to ascertain the fhotive which actuated Boxall in the attempt he made to slay Lloyd, and finally It was announced that Boxall was maddened by the discovery of treatment which, it is alleged, his sisters had suffered at the hands of Lloyd. Whether this tragedy will be precipitated into the coming contest cannot st this time be ascertained, but it Is manifest from the demeanor of Fred W. Lloyd. th disinherited son, and his counsel.

Dr. W. Wylle of Waters Wylie, attorneys of Los Angeles, that the contestant will prepared for any emergency. Speaking on the subject today. Dr.

Wylle said: WAS LLOYD INSANE? "We shall show that Lloyd was Insane and that he had acted under the undua influence of his second wife and th housekeeper, a Miss Wilkinson. The first Mrs. Lloyd is dead. Her death took place in 1S93. The oldest son naturally object to being disinherited.

mor especially as Mr. Lloyd was insane on many subjects and this boy, Fred. objected fo the okl vi I gentleman exhibiting his delusions and his peculiarities. 1 "Our hope is to prevent, as much as in the case, Fred W. Lloyd.

He was induced to shoot Lloyd by reason of becoming aware of Lloyd's treatment of his (Boxall's) sisters." Fred Lloyd was present when these remarks were made, and although he admitted that the story of his father's alleged treatment of Boxall's sisters had been published, still he opposed reference to it and hoped It would in no wise be mentioned with the case. LEHNHARDT TO HAVE AN OPENING; LARGE IMPROVEMENTS COMPLETE AND ALL IS READY FOR THE CONCERT. After many weeks of preparation the beautiful art parlors In connection with Mr. Emll Lehnhardt's Broadway establishment will be formally opened tomorrow afternoon. These elegant parlors have been decorated throughout in strict accordance with l'art nouveau style, which is now experiencing a renaissance In all the art centers of the world.

The beautiful decorations have been worked out by artist modelers and. in connection wltha novel electric display, form one of tfi handsomest pieces of work to be seen on thjs coast. Polished mahogany pillars. French plate mirrors and richly stained glass overhead, all add to the handsome effect of the whol Mr. Lehnhardt's business has grown5 to such proportions that few people have any idea of its magnitude.

Sixteen years ago four people were sufficient to attend to all the various departments. Now it requires forty-two. The modest little store on Fourteenth street, which was sufflcl-, ent in 1887, has been succeeded by a largp' factory occupying 3400 square feet and parlors occupying 1600 square feet, and even this space Is altogether too small to supply the rapidly.
