TUESDAY EVENING Dakland Tribune AUGUST 29, 1916. COL. COLLIER'S BRIDE DIES FORMER OAKLAND BELLE MRS. D. C.

COLLIER (Ruth' Everson), who died at the Wakefield Sanitarium after a brief illness. Death Ends Career of Young Woman After Short Illness Mrs. Ruth Everson Collier, bride of Colonel David Charles Collier, former president of the nia Exposition at San Diego, died last evening after an illness of several days in the Wakefield sanitarium in San Francisco. Her death, which was unexpected, has thrown a pall of sadness over local society, for Mrs. Collier was one of the most attractive and popular members of the younger set.

Mrs. Collier was married Novem 14, 1915, at the residence of her mother, Mrs. Augusta Everson, 424 Oakland avenue, with a simple home ceremony performed by Rev. A. H.

Needham. The honeymoon was spent at San Diego and in New York and Washington. Colonel Collier, who is the owner of extensive Mexican land and railroad interests, built a handsome mansion in San Diego, where (they planned to make their permanent home. Mrs. Collier was a native of Callfornia, having been born in Oakland twenty-seven years ago.

Her father, the late Mark Everson, was a pioneer of Alameda county, Funeral services will be held tomorrow afternoon at 4 o'clock from the Everson residence, 424 Oakland avenue. COUNCIL MEETING.

SACRAMENTO, Aug. -Picking of. California deciduous fruits for Eastern shipment was practically discontinued today because of the threatened railroad strike. Shipping companies, in conference late yesterday afternoon, decided to quit picking and to clean up and forward what now is in the packing houses. Upwards of-5000 carloads of table grapes, valued at about $6,000,000, remain on the vines, to rot there the strike is called and should continue for any great length of time, A week's strike would cost a million in grape losses.

BRITAIN EMPLOYS 11,000 WOMEN Various Government Offices Complain of Lack of Sufficient Help. LONDON, Aug. are 11,000 women clerks and stenographers now employed in the British government offices in Whitehall, a fact which gives some idea of the way the women have filled the gaps left by the men who have Joined the army. still the cry 1s heard for more women, which leads to the belief that the -demand has outstripped supply. Even the government departments are finding difficulty in securing the clerical assistance require.

At one time Whitehall officials could pick and choose their clerks, and the majority of those engaged were of an adaptable age- -from 20 to 30-but an intelligent girl of 17 without experience can now find a place, and middle-aged women need no longer feel that they are a not wanted. To meet ex extensions of the activities of such busy places as the war office and the ministry of munitions, it is estimated that some 200 women clerks can be absorbed every week into the official machinery. The pay is not high, though it is more than what was regarded as a satisfactory starting salary for girls before the war. It is, of course, far below the salary paid for similar work in the United States. For ordinary routine work or typewriting the pay is 1 pound ($5) a week, with 6 pence (12 cents) an hour for overtime.

For ordinary clerical work the pay is 25 shillings ($6.25) a week, with an overtime rate of 7 pence. Competent stenographers start at 26 shillings a week, but may be raised to 30 after a period of satisfactory service, and the overtime rate is 9 pence an hour. The normal hours of work vary from fortytwo to forty-eight a week in different departments. The civil service commissioners are chiefly engaged in the task of supplying the staffs required for temporary employment in public departments. The ministry of munitions and the postoffice departments have to a great extent made their own appointments, but in the last six months the commissioners have found nearly 6000 women for other government I departments.

MEXICAN PRESSES MAKING NEW COIN Vera Cruz Bills, Destroyed for Cardboard; More Paper Money Issued. MEXICO CITY, Aug. destruction of the so-called Vera Cruz issue of Mexican currency and the issuance of the new paper money known as "infalsificables" have made the government printing office one of the busiest spots in Mexico. The Vera Cruz bills, over $50,000,000 worth of which have been destroyed, are into strips in a hydraulic press, transformed into pulp and made into cardboard and pasteboard, of which there is great scarcity, This product finds a ready sale and it is possible that the government may also destroy old documents to produce material for a government box factory in the near future. The department now is working at high pressure to turn out the new "Infalsificable" $2 bills, sorely needed because of the scarcity of small change.

Not only the modern presses but even the old -presses are being utilized to expedite the work. The tremendous quantity of stamps and post cards printed under the Huerta regime are being revalidated by the impress of a special die changing the denomination. The stamping out of copper coins has been begun and it is announced this is to be followed shortly by the coinage of both gold and silver. Death Ends Illness of Eugene Thorne, Eugene S. Thorne, son of Mr.

BERKELEY, Aug. 29. Announcement has been made of a series of lectures on the Commandments, which will be delivered in Newman hail, Thursday afternoon. at 4:15 C. o'clock, by Rev.

Clarence E. Woodman, S. Ph. D. The first of the lectures, "The Volce on will be given Thursday, August NEEDN'T FEAR LIFTING LID -PETERSEN But Chief Neglects to Explain Source of Added Revenue Promised by Commissioner at Meeting of City Council Mayor Davie Announces He Feels Assured People Will Back His Proposal That Police Be Put in His Department "Mayor Davie need not be perturbed, as, to 'wide-open' whether or town not in Oakland order that the city's revenues may be creased.

Under no circumstances will city be 'opened the 'lid' removed, while I am chief of police." This is what Walter J. Petersen, acting chief of police, had to say today in answer to the anpouncement yesterday of Mayor John L. Davie that he will seek to initiate a charter amendment election, placing the police force in his -department rather than in that of Commissioner F. F. Jackson of the department of public health and safety.

The mayor explained that he desired charge of the police department, that the force might not be used illegally in the cola lection of revenues for the city. 'Well, if the city is not to be 'opened Petersen was asked, where is this added money to be secured, that the city may not have a big deficit at the end of this fiscal year REVENUE WAS HIGHER. "Don't ask Petersen swered. "Ask Commissioner Anderson. He told the council yesterday that the money would be procured.

As to Anderson's statement that the revenue of the police, courts could be much larger, say that I have seen it double the amount it has been during the time I was out of the office of chief of police." "Was the operation of Chinese lotteries not permitted at that time, however thine question was asked. "Yes, is true," "Petersen replied. was the query, "will the same conditions prevail in the immediate future?" will not," was the reply. "This city is not to be 'opened up' in any form or manner. I don't care what any one else may say about it.

I am in charge of the police department now, in SO far as the office of chief of police will permit it, and I will see to it that all the laws are enforced at all times and under all conditions." TO DEMAND INITIATIVE. The mayor has asked attorneys to give him an opinion as to the procedure to be taken in getting his proposed charter amendment on the ballot, that the people of the city may go to the polls and express an opinion on his plan. He will ask the council to place the amendment on the ballot, but expects that Commisstoners Jackson, Anderson and Baccus will vote against the proposal. He will then invoke the initiative. "Section 87 of the charter Wrong," he says.

"It places the police department under the charge of the commissioner of public health and safety. It should logically be under the mayor. That is matter of logic, a matter of common sense. As chief executive of the city, if certain situations arise, I should have the power to direct the actions of police force. I think the people of the city will agree with me in this matter, also."
