GLAD NOW SHE WENT TO JAIL Caused Sympathy and Won Mary Herbst a Husband. HER COTTAGE IS TO LET And She Is Now Mistress in the Home of a Capitalist. IDYL OF A SIGNAL BOX. John Henninger Marries the Woman Who Severely Beat a Railroad agman. Oakland Office San Francisco Call,) 90S Broadway, Aug.

13. Mrs. Mary Her bat now rejoices that she spent a few hours in prison for beating a Mrs. Mary Herbst, Who Was Arrested for Beating a Flagman Who She Declared Insulted. tier She Has Just Married an Aged Capitalist Whom She Would Never Have Met but for Her Adveutnrc in a Signal-House.

f-'outhern Pacific flagman who, she says, insulted her. It was the cause that led to her marriage a couple of days ago to a comparatively wealthy man. Less than two months ago Mrs. Herbst lived in a cottage near the signal-box at Seventh and Fallon streets. It is just at this point that the Seventh-street trestle begins, and at that time a flagman named Haisey was ou duty there to flag the trains.

Mrs. Herbst gave the flagman a severe beating one night and he had Her ed for assault with a deadly weapon. Herbst retaliated by petitioning the City Council to order the shanty off the stree: so that Haisey would have to walk many additional miles in the course of a year to and from his signal. Mrs. Herat's case cameupin the Police Court, and was postponed to give Haisey a chance to get repaired at Fabiola Hospital.

It has not been disposed of, and the secret came out when a marriage license was applied for by John A. Hennineer to wed Mary Herbst. When Mrs. Herbst's troubles were made public, the old capitalist's sympathy was aroused. He decided to see how a woman such as Mrs.

Herbst was pictured as being could be guilty of one-half the cruelty attributed to her. His investigation confirmed his belief that the lady was maligned, and his sympathy was quickJy followed by something even more tender. When it became known that the lady Had a protector, there was no more trouble with the occupants of the signalbox. The flagmen noted the increase in the number and length of the old capital- ist's visits, and when the sign "To Let" was recently posted in the cottage window, they guessed the rest. The whole trouble began over the disap- pearance of some kindling wood from the signal-box, and Haisey expressed the opinion that Mrs.

Herbst knew where it went. This was deniad, and one night Mrs. Herbst went to the cabin and cxc- I cuted summary revenge on Haisey. As many of the neighbors thought he deserved it as pitied Henninger gave his age as 63, while Mrs. Herbst is but 35 and does not even appear so old.

He is the owner of considerable property in this city and he also owns houses and land at Vallejo and Benicia. He is rated as a capitalist and resides on Seventh street, near Market. A flagman named Stanton, who was on duty this afternoon, said that it was reported that Henninger had paid off the mortgage on his wife's home and deeded I to her some valuable property before the marriage. If such be the case the deeds have not been placed on record. Mrs.

Herbst was formerly the wife of a wealthy I contractor, from whom she was divorced, Wanted Sound Money. OAKLAND, Aug. M. F. E.

ARRESTED ON AN ATTACHMENT Frank Attello Accused of Maltreating a Nine-Yoar-Old Child.

OAKLAND, Aug. Frank Attello was arrested upon an attachment to-day issued by Judge Wood in the Police Court this morning. He was out on ass bail and forfeited it. He is charged with battery upon a nine-year-old daughter of Mrs. Anna Baccilieriof 1008 Twentyfirst street.

Mrs. Baccilieri keeps a few boarders, among whom is Attello. She says the latter has been very overbearing to herself and daughter Treasa for some time past. Last Saturday Attello slapped Treasa in the face, at which she told him to mind his own business, as he was not her boss. He made a rush for her and she ran into a room occupied by Miss Juno Bertalane and locked the door.

He kicked in the door, knocked the child down and kicked her body and lower limbs until she was nearly unconscious. The girl's body is a mass of black and blue discolorations, showing where the heavy boot had struck her and bearing out her mother's statements. He was released upon giving $100 bail to-night. DENIAL PROM VETERANS The Army and Navy Republican League Listens to Addresses From Ladies. Charges in a Populist Organ Denounced as Base and Truthless Calumnies.

Borland. Senator Eli Denison presented the league with poi traits of the Republican Presidential candidates and was accorded 8 rising vote of thanks. The following resolutions were read and adopted unanimously: Whereas, The Army and Navy Republican League is a body ol citizens, formerly Union soldiers and sailors, organized upon that basis and upon the common belief that the Republican party is best qualified to administer the Government, whtca our members on land and sea helped to gave; and such citizens, whose loyalty has been proved in the service and in battle, have at least as good right as others to form peaceful organizations as citizens under the protection of our common Government; and, whereas, a PopulUt publication, miscalled Industry, has falsely and malignantly libeled this body of ex-soldiers and sailors of the Union by sayinc that they will "concoct schemes and dispatch hired emissaries," nnd that "money will be lavishly spent," and "young men of AlaraedaJCounty, snuu the portals of thid hive of corruption; look upon it as you would a leprous body," and more of the same sort. Resolved, That the Army and Navy Republican League of Ale.meda County brands the above and all such language as a malicious lie, inspired by political and personal degradation unworthy of any party, characteristic of only the basest and most debauched publication and of the lowest and most polluted mind, whose "industry" is libel, malignity and defamation; Resolved, That no party worthy of the consideration of true Americans will tolerate or support such a puDiication, and that we call upon the Pcpuiist party of Alameda County to disavow and condemn the libelous and malignant language above referred to, and to cease supporting libel or sustaining libelers, and that we ast all good citizens, irrespective of to shun a publication whose "industry" is to attempt to blajken the record and name of loyal men who survive the battles of their country and of yours, and are only participating in its peaceful government as all free, upright and honest citizens have the right to do. Professor Wilkie sang two patriotic songs, and the meeting closed with the oinginz of "America" and three cheeis for McKiniey and Hobart.

GARRITY FOR CONGRESS. He May Be Put Up in Opposition to Warren B. English. CAMPAIGN FUNDS ARE SHORT. The Foote-English Wing Declare the State Central Committee to Be Bankrupt.

Oakland Office Saw Fbancisoo Caix,) 908 Broadway, Aug. IS. The local Democracy Is now more at sea than it was during the bitter struggle between the Foote and Daggett factions at the primaries two months ago. The additional complication is caused by the injection into the arena of a separate silver party. The failure to indorse the Cleveland regime at Chicago has placed the administration Democrats in a most uncomfortable position, and the local silver wing, headed by Foote, English and Momtt, are already taking every advantage of it and attempting to complete the discomfiture of Daggett, Irish and Fitzgerald.

The next test of strength will be at the Democratic Convention to nominate a Congressman for the Third District. There is no possibility of the indorsement of the Populist candidate, whoever he may be, and the Daggett and Foote factions will each try to nominate their man. Warren B. English is the man that will be put forward by the Foote-Laymance wing and it is said, though the statement has a string to it, that the Daggett-Fitzgerald people would like T. F.

Garrity to have the nomination. Garrity was the Democratic nominee for District Attorney two years ago and was only narrowly beaten by the Republican candidate. He and English, with their respectivewbackings, wouid about eveuly divide the party in Alameda County. The Foote-English element is more hopeful than before the National Convention. They declare that the State Central Committee is controlled by Daggett, Mc- Coppin, Max Popper and other gold men, and that they cannot make much of a vigorous campaign on a platform to which they are opposed.

It is stated that the people who usually contribute to the State and National campaign have withdrawn their support and that the Democratic State Central Committee is bankrupt and too severely crippled to hope to accomplish much. The silver wine of the Democracy, most of whom live in Alameda County, are doing all in their power to destroy the influence of Daggett and his followers, and are calling the Silver party men to their aid. From the present outlook it would seem that the Silver party men of this county and the Foote wing of the Democracy have already allied for offensive and defensive purposes. "The Daggett Democrats are feeling very uneasy," said a silver leader to-day. "Tne State Central Committee had been expecting that Mr.

Lane would contribute at least $20,000 to the campaign fund, but in this they were grievously disappointed. Instead of giving tnem anything, he set about the organization of a straight Silver State Committee, and the hopes of the Dagpett men fell flat. "Dagsett has already taken a hand the Congressional fight in Alameda County, and it was reported to-day that he had telegraphed to Robert Fitzgerald to return from his Eastern tour as soon as possible, and look after the Alameda County end of the fight" The Democrats will not hold a primary for the Congressional Convention, but the same delegates elected for the last State Convention will go to Vallejo September 3 to nominate a Congressman.

POLICE HAVE NO CLEW. Supposed to Have Received Money Shortly Before Leaving. A DISCIPLE OF FREE LOVE. His Experience Cost Him a Small Fortune and Made Him Despondent. Oakland Office San Fbancisco Call.) 908 Broadway, Aug.

13. The police were notified to-day of the disappearance of Gustave Rutz, an inventor, who resided at 700 Franklin street. Gustav Rntz, an Inventor of a Streetcar Life-Saving Device Who Has Dropped Out of Sight. Rutz has been missing for several days aud his friends have all sorts of theories as to the cause of his absence. For some time he has been working on a patent car device for saving life, and he recently gave out the information that he had invented something that would pick up a human being with ease while the car was going at a high rate of speed.

He carried bis drawings about with him and refused to allow any one to inspect them until he had been granted a patent. He not worried over money matters, but was always able to pay his way. He was very despondent, and this leads some of his acquaintances to suggest that he has committed suicide. There is a chapter in Rutz's life that may throw some light on his disappearance. He has always been a firm believer in the theory of free love.

He has advocated it in public and was violently opposed to anything: in the nature of a permanent marriage. A few years ago he met a lady who held views similar to his own and they put them into practice. At that time Rutz owned considerable cash and had several thousands of dollars in bank. His companion exercised her influence over him to such a degree that she was very soon the owner of nearly all the coin. After four years' experience of free love Rutz found it had cost him his small fortune and when the lady obtained possession of the last $5000 she discovered that the free-love doctrine was no longer desireable and she left Oakland.

Since that time Rutz has been a very different man. He could not find any one else who would accept his free-love doctrine and grew somewhat despondent. He made no preparation for his departure and his room shows that he intended to return. He is a man of very abstemious habits and his friends scorn the idea that he has gone on a debauch. "During the two weeks previous to his disappearance," said one of his intimate acquaintances to-day, "he was frequently visited by a man who was not known to any one in the house.

I did not like the visitor's appearance and told Rutz so. I believe Rutz expected some money from Germany, but whether it came or not before he went off I cannot say. His friend has not called since he left and I would not be surprised if it should prove to be a case of abduction for the purpose of robbery. We have told the police of the matter, but Detective Williams said that they have no clew on which to work." GONE UP IN SMOKE. A Two Thousand Dollar Fire on Bay Street and Railroad Avenue, Alameda.

OAKLAND, Aug. At about half past 8 a TG out in buildings at the back of C. Perfumo's produce and grocery-store, situated on Bay street, near Railroad -avenue. The build-; ing is in the middle of the block, and as the fire spread rapidly there was a probability that it would.be a serious conflagration. The alarm, was turned in and repeated, bringing out every available man and foot of hose in the city.

A rumor spread among the crowd that a consignment of oil had been placed in the sheds of Marcuse Remmel, and this made Fire Chief Krauth and his men redouble their energies Three strong streams of water were playing on the fire, confining the flames to the rear of the premises, and in half an hour all danger was over. The damage done by water and removal will be the most serious loss; and Mr. Marcuae places jit at about $2000. All the places are covered by insurance. sMarcuse Ranimel suffer a good deal by the damage done to their seasoned timber, and their offices were turned topsyturvy in shifting the maaa of papers, documents and plans.

Mrs. CrosDie is also a sufferer from water, as is Burnett, the groceryman, and Dannueira, a saloonkeeper. it The origin of the fire is a mystery. It started in a barn full of hay, in which some coal oil was also stored. Mrs.

Perfumo loses about twenty canaries and the same number of prize pigeons. As the Thompson Hose Company was leaving the Webb-avenue station-house Tom Hanson, in trying to get on the wagon, which was moving, made a miscalculation and fell under the wheel, sustaining a compound fracture of the leg. Too Kich for Charity. OAKLAND, Aug. For the past six months Mrs.

Dr. Buell, aged 76, a daughter, Mrs. L. M. Dean, and a little boy, a son of Mrs.

Dean's, have been living on charity. When notified that the charity was to be withdrawn and that they had better go to the County Infirmary they declared that they were independent, to the great astonishment of their friends, who have all along supposed them to be penniless. They own a ranch in Sutler County and other property. James Will Not Resign. BERKELEY, Aug.

13. Judge James of the Justice Court has announced that he will not resign from his office as Justice of the Peace of Berkeley. WORK BEGUN IN EARNEST Recitations for Upper Classmen at Berkeley Commenced Yesterday. Congressman Hitborn Receives a Hearty Indorsement for BERKELEY, Aug. T0-day was registration.

day for sophomores and upper classmen at the State University. By 5 o'clock, the hour set for the closing of the Recorder's office, 700 had signed their names and filed, their study cards for i the term. The freshmen, graduates and some of the limited and special students are yet to be heard from. The total number of applicants for freshman standing reaches almost the 500 mark, but it is estimated that out of these only about 350 will be admitted. "About 3314 per cent of the 3 applicants i for freshman standing will probably be clipped off," said Recorder Button to-day, "and so doubt if the class of 1900 will be much larger than the class of '99.

"There will be a great many graduate and special students who will come in later, and by another month we will have on our roll at: Berkeley about 1250. Some more will come in January, and by the close of the year the total enrollment in the colleges at Berkeley. will reach about 1350, or 100 more than the books of last year show." J' '--V Besides the general raisin? of the standard of entrance requirements this year on account of the overcrowded condition of the university a Latin "fit" has been demanded for entrance to all the colleges except those of the applied sciences, such as mining, civil engineering, agriculture and mechanics. I The applicant who desires to enter any of. the so-called liberal courses, such as are given in the colleges of letters and social sciences was required to have a full three years' preparatory Latin course.

The recorder says that this single new requirement has doubtless been the means of keeping many of the "preps" in their high schools for at least another year. Instruction began this afternoon for all the students excepting freshmen. Cards of admission be issued to the incoming classmen next Monday, and on Tuesday they will be organized for instruction, Almost absolute harmony has existed thus far between the freshmen and their natural enemies, the sophomores, but rumors of a bic rush before a fortnight has passed were floating freely to-day.
