A conflict has arisen between the Alameda, County Board of Education and the State Board In the matter of granting certificates to' teach.

It appears that the recent acts of the Legislature have delegated to the State Board powers given to local boards by the State Constitution. It is a question that affects all of the county boards throughout the State. The Alameda County board is taking the initiative in the matter to test the validity of the new law. The matter has been referred to the district attorney before definite action is taken. Tha State Constitution provides as follows: "The County Superintendents and County Boards of Education shall have control of the examination of teachers and the granting of teachers certificates within their respective Jurisdictions." In Section 1521 of the Civil Code enacted by the last Legislature, gives to the State Board the power to prescribe rules for the credentials of persons who may be granted certificates to teach in the State High Schools.

Tne foregoing section, it Is claimed is in conflict with the Constitution, which it is Claimed, delegates the same power to local boards. The Alameda County Board proposes to stand out for the powers given to it by the Section 1772 of the Civil Code also recently enacted, states that County Boards shall grant certificates to teach and hold examinations for the same. Unless the apparent conflict Is settled, a certificate granted by a local board might subsequently be declared invalid and the teacher thus affected might not be unable to draw a salary for the services rendered. Certificates to teach have been granted by the County Boajd as follows- ammir 8rrade May Devine, Mrs. M.

Jjr BOARD III Horrible Act of a Mason at the Point of Pair of Pistols. Police of Bstcu Unable to Locate Scene of the Crime. NEW YORK, May li. A stone- mason was at work on an old wall in the center of the town when a carriage swiftly drove up to him, two masked men Jumped out threw a bag over his head, bundled him Into the carriage and galloped away, says a dispatch from Baku to the Herald. After half an hour's furious driving the mason was told to alight, the sack was taken from his head and he found hjlmself fln en old-fashioned courtyard.

He was pushed through a door into a corridor and, In an empty room he noticed an opening In a stone wall in which was wedged a woman, trembling and with terrified face. The men who had brought the mason pointed revolvers at his breast and ordered him to wall up the opening with the woman behind it, threatened to shoot him dead if he refused. Stones, mortar, and trowels were in the room. He was told that the woman was a Mahometan who had injured her husband. The mason built up the opening, the sack was again drawn over his head and three-quarters of an hour later he was put out of the carriage in a lonely part of the city.

As soon as he could free himself of the sack he did so, but the carriage had disappeared. He went Immediately to the police and told his story, but, although the police are ransacking tb Houses in th.e Mahometan quarter, they can no trace of the locality of this horrible crime. LABOR ACCEPTS THE CHALLENGE. TONKERS, N. May 11.

The challenge recently made by JohneC. Havemeyer to the Labor Unions of the city. In which he offered to 'propound various questions for labor union speakers to answer at a public meeting, the expense to be 'borne by him, has been officially accepted by the local branch of the Federated Union. The voe to accept the challenge was unanimous. There were delegates present from twelve of the local unions.

It was at first deemed expedient to confine the speakers to Yonkers men but the point was raised that Mr. Havemeyer would in all probability heve the support of a great many wealthy men of the country and for that reason the ablest labor speakers in the country are to be obtained to answer him.

A dispatch to the Inter-Ocean from New York says: "A battle between the policemen who man the police boat and a squad of policemen disguised as river pirates has been fought off the shore of Thompkinsville. There was no blood shed, but the battle looked real enough, and a number of Staten Island resi dents on the Bay Ridge shore were convinced that the police had made an important capture of river thieves. "The police boat Patrol fired a number of shots from its two five-pounders at the pirates. The contending forces clashed, brandishing clubs, strips of rubber hose, and revolvers, and the flreboat New Yorker, with steam up, stood a short distance away, apparently ready to give the police help should it be needed. As a matter of fact, the fight was arranged for moving pictures to show in the public parks during the celebra tion of the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the founding of New York.

The patrol, with two launches and several row boats, was used In the nht. "Two of the pirates pretended to be shot and fell to the bottom of their boat. A hand-to-hand conflict wound up the proceedings." 1 i a HUiiimi EIGHTEEN LARGE LAUNDRIES FORCED TO CLOSE DOWN. OMAHA, May 11. The strike situation in Omaha was further complicated this morning by the closing down of eighteen of the large laundries in the city and the locking out of 500 laundry-workers.

This action was taken by the laundry-men after an extended conference last night and the reception by them of a request from the Laundry Workers' Union that they do not attempt work for hotels, restaurants other places which have been declared unfair. There was a meeting of the "Laundry Workers' Union, which was attended by nearly every member of the local lodge. With them met representatives of the unions whose members were already on strike and urged the laundry-workers to demand that the laundries refuse work offered by certain hotels and restaurants. A committee was sent to the laundrymen. who were In session at a local hotel, and to them the committee presented the request.

Without making answer the laundrymen decided to close their plants today, thus locking out the men, who tney reared would declare a strike. President Kimball of the Trl-City Laundrymen's Club, said the union did not represent a majority of the laundry-workers. He said there were sufficient non-union employes left to run the laundries, but he feared for the safety, of the employes, and the laundrymen had decided to close Indefinitely. Some work which had accumulated Saturday and Sunday will be cleaned up during the day in some of the largest concerns, however, and then the shut-down will be general. Mr.

Kimball said that there was an understanding with the laundries of South Omaha and Council Bluffs that no Omaha work should be accepted by them. A few of the strike breakers brought in the committees were put to work this morning. Captain Donahue stated that he would follow the system begun yesterday by arresting all men as vagrants who came in as strike breakers and refused to work. A number were locked up last night. SHORTAGE IN B'RITH ABRAHAM.

BOSTON, May 11. Delegates from nearly every lodge in the Union numbering over BOO, have met Paine Memorial Hall for the first session of the biennial convention of the Order of rlth Abrau ham, the largest Jewish fraternal organization in this country. Grand Master Samuel Dorf called the delegates to order. He announced he would read his annual message and that printed booklets containing his message would be distributed. So anxious were the delegates to receive a copy that they could not wait until the marshals had passed them around, but crowded about the platform and fought their way upon the stage to get them.

Mr. Dorf began reading his report amid great confusion and order was not restored for quite a time. The excitement is said to be due to the announcement thatjthe endowment fund has a shortage of "J5188, which cannot be accounted for. This condition, it Is stated, was found upon the death of the secretary, Meyer Sternberg, and the executive board has been at work on the books. Disagreements have arisen from the inquiry and the eplre matter is to be brought before this convention.

INQUIRING INTO INFERNAL MACHINE. NEW YORK, May 11. Later investigations, eays the Herald, have established these Important points bearing upon the solution of the mystery of the infernal machine found on the Cunard line's dock: It was on January 2, 1902, that the two powerful Stand-by dry cell batteries used in the device left for shipment on the Umbrla, were shipped from the factory of the National Carbon Company, of Cleveland, Ohio. Despite the contrary statements in the postscript of the mysterious "Mafia" letter, the battery was connected and the ourrent effective and the ignltlng device was set foT action and not yet sprung, when the box was opened. Though of a high grade and potential for disaster, the dynamite probably is of a quality containing not more than 60 per cent nltro-glycerine.

It is believed that neither the dynamite nor the battery cells used were bought in New York City. A handwriting expert of this city expresses the opinion that the author of the warning letter was a man, an American accustomed to writing rapidly, highly intelligent and who obviously disguised his handwriting.

Leonard's body bore twenty marks from the teeth of the dogs. A large piece of flesh was torn from her lower lip, part of her cheek is torn away, her left arm is torn and mangled and her right arm almost completely covered with prints of the dog's teeth.
