Joly 2 lit. Mrs. Charles Minor Good all, aged 28 year. Only one of the items in the ordiaary news of the day, but deserving more than a passing glance, for the pity of it, or the infinite sadness attending the passing away of such a young life. Mrs.

Goodall was the wife of Captain Charles Minor Goodall of tbe well-known firm of Goodall, Perkins Co. Four years ago Captain Goodail purcnased the Weston place on Lake street, add ing to it and beautifying it in so mar ways that it was oi.e of tha mon beauti ful homes in the city, aad. with his wne and two little bovs it 11 one of tne happiest boms as well.

And the psor learned to know Mrs. Goodall well, for of her own abund ance she gave peuerously to 1 1.039 in need, and so unostentatious in her many gifts that even the left hand did not know of the good work.

It is the poor who will realize sadly the lo3s of a sood true friend. It was with much anxiety that, a year ago, Mrs. Goodalf friends learned ot ber very serioos illness.

But not to await the end. There was a mother, husband, dear little bovs. in a word, home and all that life holds dear, and the youns mother bent every energy cowards the one thought of liv ing yet a little while longer with the dear ones. Upheld by a wonderful will power, by a rare nerve force, she saw her many friends, went about in the midst of her family, and lingered long, nn willing to turn away from them all, and face the future alone. But tbe dread disease was too much for human strength, and early Bundey! morning, friends and neighbors knew it was all over Mrs.

Goodall was dead.

E. 6. Steele Suddenly Called to Eternity. A Most Estimable Citizen Los to Oakland. A Lens UstoIDssened jtaccessu His Career.

Ons of ths most prominent citizens of Oakland, ELG. Steele, was suddenly suicken down by apoplexy Friday last week at San Francisco and died shortly afterward. Mr. Steele resided at the southeast corner of Sixth and Jackson streets, in one oi the handsom est residences in that quarter of the citv. Mr.

Steele was a native of Boston and a zed 52 years. He cams to thia State tn 1 861 and soon after entered the office of Adolphe Low Co. of San Francisco as a clerk, lie showed such wvnderful aptitude and capacity for business that in time he was admitted to membership 10 the firm, and on the retirement of Mr. Low the firm nam was changed to that of E. G.

Steele (Jo. Mr. Steele was fortunate in almost al his business dealings, lie is supposed to have made an enormous som of money in the American Refinery deal when he and bis associates forced Clans Spree kels and the Sugar Trust to accept their terms of compromise, and he is believed to have left a very large for tune, much of which is represented in valuable business property. During ths sugar refinery war Mr. Steels became largely inUreited fa the Hawaiian sugar plantation aad in the affairs of the Island kingdom, which re sulted in his rrceivins? ths order knighthood from King Kalakaua.

He wae one of ths most aotiv and enthusi astic members of the Bohemian Club. Mr. Steele was of a very sociable and geaial disposition, well liked by every body who knew him. verv cosrteous in his manner, remarkably well read, de voted to literature-, a ''friend of literary workers and a good cttuea renerallv. Some years ago hs was nominated on ine Am sr lean ticket ror enooi lnrsetor from his ward, but was defeated.

That was the only political omce ne ever as pired to. He leaves a wife and three eh Hire a two dan-raters and a son. ths latter be- log 19 at 29 years of ate. gan. accepting the signed tna rolls before July 1st.

several cries of "no" greeted the io quiry, and it wae Uter exslaiaad that a resolution to that efleci had been smothered in committee. Aa tba duet of randidataa aDoaared on the stage, Sergeant-afc-Arma Boaenberg, hailing Mr. Stewart, shouted "Three cheers for the next Assessor of Alameda county!" J. E. Taylor bf tba Fortv-sixth dis trict rose to a queation of privilege.

He aaid that Mr. Daltoa had been convinced the neceeaity of becoming a Populist on tne 4tb of Julv. MI ear down with him," cried Taylor with a great deal of feelisg. lnese remarks occasioned a wild outburst of appreciation on the right aide of the hail where Mr. Davie was seated and where a number of his supporters were also gathered.

une delegate rose to his feet ana shouted that no man waa on trial there and the remarks of Mr. Taylor were uncalled for. I- Tovne of the Fortv-sixth district aaid be had spent some time during several weeks past going from farm to farm in Lis section of the country and also through the towns of Nile, Bunol, rleasaoton. Livermore and Mission San Jose and that the people there had told him if the convention would nominate Henry P. Dalton that he would be carried through successfully to victory, by a vote of 2 to 1 over any other man.

This evoked cheers from a number delegates as also from many admirers in tne gallery who disclaimed to notice Rosenberg's admonitions to desist. Jere Dunn said that he had but re cently made up his mind to support Mr. Dalton and that he had decided to do ao after -fully inqniring into the case and satUfying himself that the, charges against him were absolutely falss. Messrs. btewart and Dlt9a thea ap peared on the stage and were greeted with cheers.

Stewart, in addressing the convention, e.ated that he had never sought the office and, in fact, had ben working for the nomination of Mr. Dalton. Taxation, he claimed, is a neeessity and should be as light as possible. Assessments should: be lezal, reasonable and just and if be should be nominated and elected he would do hia best to secure such a state Xf affairs. Sir.

Daltou then arose and said "Mr. Chairman and ladies and gentlemen of the convention: I have been informed during the day that a certain i flue nee has been brought to bear upon this convention by a man who is a delegate in this convention to bring about my defeat; and ihat influence has been exerted by the bosses who have ao long dominated the politics of thia county. He has made charges that he knows to be liW. If yon will go to the records and see what they say without taking my word for it yotx wiil be able to see that they are lies, I defy any man to say that any vote of mine was ever cast in favor of a corporation and against the people. It has been charged that I was responsible for the driving of the Industrial Army out.

of Oakland. I was not preeeut, during the conference that took action on the matter, and I defy anybody to show that I had anything to do in the case. "It has been said that I opposed the improvement of the loot of Franklin street, and the man who makes the charge says he was injirod thereby. tie is one man out of 60,033. I want to say that I voted every time an improvement was suggested, and I voted in favor of iu Here is an ordinaac," aaid the speaker, "appropriating $4500 for the improvement of the foot of Franklin street," showing as he spoke a- newspa per cupping of a published ordinance, "for which all members of the Council voted.

Shortly afterwards' I went East, and during my absence there the ordinance was repealed. He knowe that I supported it. He ears that I voted against hie franchise. That is a personal matter and is inspired solely br a desire to create prejudice against me. I did not vote at alL I waa not satisfied with hia statement of the case nor with the s'atement of the City Attorney.

Had I voted for it it would have done no good. Six' were opposed to it, one was absent and three would not vote. Had I voted it would have been in the sine condition still. "The same min gjt up on this floor and ai thong I suppose he was out of order, attacked me became he bad a personal grievance to satisfy. You thought it within the bounds of justice to' give me a cbancs to reply and make a correction and I appreciate your kind-uess.

He knows and it can be proved that the Federation of Trades at the time adopted resolutions to the eflsctthat the thanks of that association be extended to Councilman Daltou.

Cheers. am very grateful von for your attention and kindness and I now ask that my name be stricken from the list of nominees." Great Mr. Dalton then retired from the platform.

J. Davie then roee to bia feet and moved eut on the fl or in front of the delegates. Ha said tie wished to repiy to Ntatementa Mr, Dalton had made. There waa quite an amount of opposition, espeeiahy from Jer Dunn, but it was finally decided that Mr. Divie would be permitted to reply.

That gentleman accordingly mounted th platform and said that Daltoa bad made a number of charges that he (Davie) knew nothing anoat. "I am not a chron office-seeker" laid Davie. "I have not gone to every delegation and asked them to vote for me." Mr. Davie said that hia request for a ranebise was based on the fact that when he waa seeking; to establish his it was backed no by 6000 people jrho assembled at ths whirf in 1892. -vj "When I askrd a franchise fot a street railro-d to connecs with the ferry" aaid Mr.

Davie, "I went to the old railroad council and managed to keep it a ive luring the existence of that body. When the new Council came in, I ex-oected to get all its votes beciuie the franchise was intended for the accm-nodation of the people. I wanted to have street ear tines conneot' with the furry. When I lost it went to tLa rail-oad. 1 waa the first man who bad aver k'ked for a franchise who had only nut ith a ref usaL "I asked him (Dalton) to reduce the wharfage.

I again asked for ahed and they built it 600 feet away.

I took Dalton to the water front and showed him flour on the wharf covered with soot and dirt. I got an ordinance trod need to erect a abed and when it came up on paasaga in the Council, that man Daltoa waa not there. I got Billy Watkinson and told him about the situation. Now he is supposed to be a railroad man, but he said, 'Davie, rail road or no you'll set yonr "There is no application that I have made to the Council that ha (Dalton) has not voted against, I defy anybody prove the contrary. He isn't a Populist.

He came in at the eleventh hour. His name is in the papers for weeks as seeking this-office." Mr. Davie then retired, and Mr. Alton asked for permission to reply. unes 01 and "Yes." Bretz Let's be fair.

He onght to be permitted to reply. Dalton was allowed a few minntei more and again appeared on the stage. He said: "I did not call names. He (Davie) knew that he waa the guilty man. Did I mention Davie's name? He said that I asked delegates to vote for me.

That is a lie, and I defy any delegate to produce a man to say that I did ask. He says that he asked me to reduce the wharfage charges. That is a lie. He never asked me. The night that his application for a shed came np in the Conned I was not there.

I was at homesick in bed. you think that I would dodge a vote providing for an outlay of only $160? I never saw any flour on the wharf covered with soot, and'Davie never called my attention to such a condition of affairs. It Is very unpleasant for me to come Into a convention and talk on these subjects, but it is all because of one man (Davie)." Cheers. J. W.

Duttoa then seconded the nomination of Stewart for Assessor and the nomination was made by acclamation. Then Mr. Dutton rushed to the front of the chamber and announced that just as he was going out he had been told that a delegate, who had left the room, had said as he departed "I came into the party to rip a certain man np the back and I've done it, and now I am going to leavs the Mr. Dutton wanted the Populists organization purged of such people and said he conld produce two men who had heard the remark made. Every other person seemed to desire the matter brought np immediately, and at length Duttoa brought to the front Messrs.

J. Thompson and R. L. Bernier, who, he announced, had overheard the remarks of the "ripper." Thompson told his story as follows: "After the dispute between Davie and Dalton was finished I saw a crowd in the corner and I heard Dunn aay, 'I came into the party to cut the (Davie) np the back and I've done it, and now I'll Everybody looked in the direction of I Dunn's seat, but it had no occupant. Then Bernier said that he had heard the same remarks made by Dunn, with toe exception tnai tne words were a great deal more objectionable than those mentioned by Ihompson.

Then both said that they were willing to swear to their respective statements. This brought E. L. Field to the plat form to say that he had been standing in the crowd when Jere Dunn spoke and what that delegate had said was that he had been in the party before J. L.

Davie had come into it to rip it np the back. Field said he was willing to swear to his statement also. "There is Dunn, now," exclaimed Field, pointing from the stage to the delegate from Loriu, who was re-enter-in the hall. Dann was rushed up to the atage, ignorant of what had transpired during his absencv and when informed that his party fealty bad been questioned he acted like a man who wanted to batter somebody out of recognition. He demanded to know who had maligned him, but neither Thompson nor Barnier came forward to face him.

He told how he had been an advocate ot the principles of the party for thirteen years, and though he had little luxury at home he would remain true to the party. He fiaaily returned to hia seat. when in some manner he received the impression that John Geider was the man who bad circulated the story about bim. It reqnired several men to restrain Dann from attacking his fellow delegate and several more to assure him that it was not Geider who had circulated the story against him. "I am a poor but honast man," he shouted.

There are eom demagogues in this convention, and I can name them, and John L. Davie is one of them." Cries of "No." then, I'll withdraw the remark. I defy anybody to ear I am dishonest. This convention made a mistake in not nominating Mr. Dalton for Assessor.

J. W. Duttoa then explained his connection with the episode, making it pa tent that he had not made the charges. Dana was placated, and the order of business was resumed. SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS.

Dr. Chapman said that he snake as a representative of those whose hands are hard with toil, but he divided them into two asses: "One is willing to resort to Violence' to sain their ends the other the Class which is determined to see that law and order are maintained." Tbe speaker read declaration and contended that bv he and Mr.

Roberts were for the maintenance of order. Nevertheless violent acta had been committed, but tbey must not oc cur attain. This strike had nullified the advantages gained through, the great advertising received at the Columbian Fair, and the strike had depreciated the value ot real estate here. Hisses and cbers.l Tne speaker said that the Question is whether or not they should have law and order. He alluded to examples that become infectious.

Men emoka cigars and throw away the stum pi for the boys to pick them up and emka them. Men strike, and at ones a nam ber ot small newsbovs into line. In conclusion the speaker said "We say that we have nothing but sympathy in our nearts ior you and your cause, nut law and order must be main tained." Mayor Pardee then Introduced Engi neer tr. v. Meyers wltb a few remarks.

in which he dwelt upon the sad death of Engineer Mr. Meyer was received with a perfect ovation, ana wnen silence naa Deen re stored tbe Mayor rushea up to him and said to the audieoce: "This, ladies and gentlemen, is one ot those men who have been attacked for braving death." This was followed by another wild burst of enthusiasm, which did not thor oua-hly subside until Meyers bad told them that there was a mistake about the statement. He had not run an engine for over two year and merely represented those who had courted danger. Mr. Meyer then related how the Brotherhood of Engineers bad been or ganized thirty-one years ago in Michigan and that Its motto was "truth, morality, soDriety ana justice." lie said that engineers had been threatened with violence and their fam ilies had been intimidated by the strik ers, and be denied that there were any rules or by-laws compelling the engin eers to run with any certain class of firemen.

He hoped that if violence should become prevalent again, the good citizens would see to it that no one was injured. THE RISOLUTIOSS. Ths following resolutions were thea introduced by the chairman: Bttolvd, That it is the right of every msn to leave bis work whenever he is of the opinion tnat he can better hit condi tion by so doing. tui oivea. mat it is tne right of every man recognized by the civil and moral law to work whenever ani wherever he may see fit; and that the abridgment of mis ngni oy iorce ana intimidation is so great and threatening an infringement of tneTigats 01 American citizens as to merit tbe earnest condemnation of all thinking people so serious an infringement of the rights guaranteed by the Constitution ot the United States and the 8tate of Califor nia as to require the putting forth of ell authority to stamp it out, to the end that the right of the people be not further abridged by unthinking and unreasoning men.

1 Betolwd, That the threatening of the lives and property of those who desire to work and the threatening of the lives ot their wives and families is an outrage not to do loieraiea in an American city sucn as Oakland is. And that we hereby guar antee our protection to those who desire to work, but nave been intimidated by threats ana violence irom earning tne support uey owe to in sir wives ana cnuoren. When the resolutions cams to be passed upon, one gentleman in the audience wished to speak, but the Mayor did not seem Inclined to discuss the matter and took no heed ot his clamoring for a hearing. "is this a citizens' meeting?" asked the man, but again he was ignored, aad amidst a great deal of confusion a standing vote was taken, which was de clared affirmative by the Mayer, despite cries oi "no! no I which sounded from various parts of the house. The commotion which followed this incident lasted for several minutes.

A good many people left ths house and it was sometime before the next speaks. Est. Charles W. Wendte, could make himself heard. said hs had always been a friend to tba workman.
