10 SLIP AND FENCES. Exciting Times Across the Bay. RAILROAD BARGE REMOVED. Davie Gains a Point Over the Enemy. THE MONOPOLY MAKES A MOVE.

It Erects a High Board Fence Directly Across Harrison and Alice Streets. The people of Oakland were on a tiptoe of excitement yesterday when it was reported-on the street that the water-front fit' was on again. The days and nights, months ago, were -Vividly recalled when there came so near being bloodshed. Pit was stated that Davie had moved out the old fighting barge of the Southern THE STEAMER ALVIRA IN PROCESS OF RECONSTRUCTION. and that the railroad company, by -way of retaliation, had fenced up Harrison 'and Alice streets; that there were big jcrovrds on the grounds, and that there was to be serious trouble.

The story was true only In part. It was a bloodless bat! but a battle, nevertheless, and "Dave had won a signal victory. Down on the water front, lying between and Webster streets, Mr. JDavie had purchased a piece of property, getting his title i through an oyster-dredging company couple of years ago, and this was the laud In dispute at the time of the great waterfront fight. Under the guns of the enemy 'Davis built a wharf on his land, but on one side of it, in the slip on which the line of Harrison street touches the bay.

the railroad company towed a big barge with a shanty aboard. In this shanty it quartered its men. It knocked the bottom nut of the barge and let it settle down into the mad of the slip. It also lay crosswise of the slip and no craft could enter. The barge was chained to a pile, and there the old hulk lay for fourteen long months, holding th.

key to the situation. It was like the fabled doe in the it ruined the usefulness of a good piece of It would neither use the property nor would it let others use it. Daring the excitement of the water- LOCATION OF THE BARGE AS SEEN FROM THE SLIP. front battles this old barge was well fortified with men and guns, but as time passed on and the courts got legal bauds on the matter the need of fighting men was no more. The active forces were withdrawn on both sides.

Davie continued to use his wharf and the slip on the opposite side of it, bnt the old scow continued squat in the mud iD that Harrison-street slit-- There was a little life aboard of her, however. The railroad company had left some of itwatch aboard. Five men continued to 101 lazily about the. hulk for fourteen lorig months, doing naught else than draw their pay from the Southern Pacific of Kentucky. A week ago, however, why, it is not known, unless it was to save expense, the I railroad company abandoned barge.

The men picked up bag, baggage and blankets one pleasant afternoon and vanished among the lumber piles that line the water front. They left no remnant of their presence behind. Mr. Divio had towed his latest purchase, the Alvira, up into opposite slip and was refitting her with a big gang of carpenters at the time of the exodus of the railroad men from the barge. He is never slow, in taking a trick, and now he saw his chance.

came on Thursday night. If A little after 11 o'clock that night he began gathering his forces, and by midnight THE FENCE AT THE FOOT OF HARRISON STREET. I stalwart Davieltes were manipulating ropes aboard the barge. Precaution had been taken to have a piledriver handy with steam up. Strong hawsers weie rigged about the cap-tan on the barge and passed to the donkey-engine on the piledriver.

During these preparations the cabin on tbe barge was opened and a solitary man was found within. He bad no explanations to make and was not inquisitive. Perhaps the crowd was too much for him; perhaps he was only a plain, ordinary tramp who thought be had found a bed of roses wheD he struck old btrge. Just the same tie was hustled out and off. He slunk a way in the the work of the night commenced.

It took many a tag at the rope and strainlog of tbe engine to move the She wis sunken, and without a bottom was fall of mud. The. high tide the crowd bad waited for did not much help matters. It was purely a matter of strength of hawsers, and Mr. Davie said: "We almost pulled her in two before we budged her." However, the bow was finally lifted out of the mud, and with th-- stern deep down into the water she was finally dragged to a floating position, and then towed out into the estuary and made fast to some piling standing far out in the water.

There were mysterious whispers of now she had beert blown out of the slip by a strong wind the night before, but there was a wink with the whisper. wind about it." said Mr. Davie with a smile. "We nulled her out and it was a touch job, "0." The early morning light showed an empty slip. It also showed a gang of men armed with railroad picks, shovel.

hammers and sans, a little wav from the scene of action of night before. Just a block from the Davie wharf and tip Harrison street, they set to work digging postholes and throwing up a fence across Harrison street at First. By 10 o'clock 400 feet of fencing, four boards In height, had been erected. It crossed Harrison street, crossed the block along First, and ended after crossing Alice street and making a connection with Elson Adams' fence on the other side of Alice street. Tho railroad company had fenced un two streets.

What is the meaning of it? was asked. Tnis was regarded as only one of. the many moves of the monopoly in retaliation and obstruction. On the 7tli inst. acting Mayor Towle had ordered that certain lumber blocking Harrison street at this very point should be removed, and the owners the Washington Lumbal had hastily complied with the order.

The big corporation thought it saw in this a move of the Council to open all the I streets as it had Brondway, and it slipped iv with its fence to get a case in court. "When the Council takes down that fence," said a railroad man, "it will have to answer in court." These events on the water front drew a crowd to the scene of action, and by noon the Davie wharf was covered with people. And Davie and h's friends hail not been idle. Early in the day they began preparations for warping the steamer Alvira around in the long-disputed slip. Davie was getting his own, and there was a cheerful "Ye-heavp-oh on the ropes as the crowd willingly laid hold in help.

Meantime the snag-puller was at work pulling out piles which had been driven here and there as barriers, and by the time the Alvira was snug in her Dew berth the slip was as clean as a ribbon. It is Mr. Davie's intention to drive a row of piles partly across the slip to keep out poachers. "I have complete possession now, and I mean to keep it," said Mr. Davie.

"Yes, sir," echoed Captain Bassett. who stood on the bow of the Alvira, are here, and we are going to stay." "Dti you anticipate any trouble?" was assert of Mr. Davie. "No," he said. 'T only wish it would come.

lam ready." "How about that lence over there?" asked the reporter. "Oh, that doesn't bother me auy. I'll move that when I get ready to use Harrison street, unless it is moved before." And the work on the Alvira went- on merrily. Thirty carpenters are at work, and by Sunday week she will be completed, and a handsome boat. The wharf, was thronged with people during the morning hour, ana of course the railroad spotter was there.

He was spotted, bo we jr. and became the subject of considerable 'jeering. He kept on the outskirts of the rowd pretty nearly all the time. The closing of the streets created considerable talk and the question was frequently asked, "Will the Council take promt-, action as it did in tbe Broadway case?" A Call reporter visited acting Mayor and President of the Council Towle. That gentleman said, in answer to a question "Yes, 1 know about the fence put up by the railroad company and it will not stand one minute if it be shown that the railroad company has no title to the land inclosed by the fence.

We do not propose to act hastily, because such a move might involve the city In innumerable lawsuits. Litigation costs the railroad company little, as it employs attorneys by the year, but the city has to pay a retainer for each new suit and a fee besides, and we do not propose to rush in. We can afford to wait a little while, and if our attorneys advise we are in the riuht yon may depend the Council will not be slow. to act." Councilman "We have had a conference with our attorneys, and have been advised that it is a move on the part ofthe railroad company to harass the city with petty litigation. We can reach one end of the line.

we are on. It is the main Issue. Our purpose is not alone to recover here and there a street, but to fight; to a winning finish on the line marked "The city loses no rights by this obstruction. We claim and have every ground to expect to win, not alone Harrison street, but the blocks of land lying between- it and other streets. At a suitable time we will remove that fence in a few minutes, even if au army of railroad laborers should "Until we are ready to strike the blow, the public will have to trust to the judgment THE MORNING CALL, SAN FRANCISCO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 1 2, 1593.

of our attorneys as to when we shall act. Before this thing is finished. we calculate to give this arrogant corporation a staggering blow, to be followed up repeatedly until they remove their ruffian hands from the throat of our city." City- Attorney Johnson, when asked about the matter, stated that the first thing to be ascertained is whether the fence in question is on public or private property. private prorerty the city can do nothing. If on public property the Board of Public Works can direct the Superintendent of Streets to clear the highway.

The CltylAttorney did talk much on the subject. Superintendent of Streets Harrison was in his office the greater part of the day for any order that might come in regarding the tearing down of the fence, but none came. He said he whs ready 'to do whatever the Board of Public Works instructed bim to do. He had inspected the feuce that had been erected. At a late huureverythine is quiet on the water front.

Davie gallantly holds his vantage ground and feels very much elated over his success. At 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon three flatcars of the Southern Pacific, loaded with gravel, backed up to the theater of Oakland's water-front struggle at the foot of Broadway and filled the unsightly hole made by the tearing down of the ticket office. The place was nicely smoothed off and then the restorers proceeded In fix up a little shanty near by. and make a ticket office of it. They put in a window through which tickets could be sold, and tried to make things as homelike and cozy as possible pending Judge McKenna's decision in the suit with tho city.

HE IS WORN OUT. Mr. Carpentier Weary of the Railroad Rack. Horace W. Carpentier has grown tired of posing as au embodied historical encyclopedia for the benefit of Attorney Harvey Brown of the Southern Pacific, and during the noon hour yesterday, while Mr.

Brown proceeding quite deliberately with the introduction of certified copies of ordinances passed by Oakland's old Town Council, accompanied by copies also of the minutes of the astonishingly rapid proceedings by which the ordinances were hurried through, Mr. Carpentier protested. HrcEfl Since Tuesday he has been quiescently at the service of the inquisitor named, so he broke the monotonous tedium by saying: "I must and do decline to be used any further to identify and explain the records of the Oakland Water-front Company. There is such a vast amount of papers which can be easily identified by a number of other persons just as well. This matter is a very great strain upon au old man who is far from well and who has no relation with them now.

If counsel will select certain papers for me I will try to identify them, but I must decline to identify so vast a number." What provoked this outburst was a query of Mr. Brown as to the identification of the indenture of March 31, 1868, by which Mr. Carpentier had conveyed the water front of Oakland to the water-front company. The instrument excepted from the transaction the portion between Washington and Franklin streets, extending southerly to a line parallel with First street and 200 feet south irom the wharf. He did cousent to identify that document, however.

Just before adjournment Mr. Carpentier signified his indisposition again. He was not looking any too well yesterday, and Mr. Brown sympathetically alluded to his apparent condition. The subject of when to adjourn to was considered, and it was then almost 1 o'clock.

do not want to be called again to-day." said Mr. Carpentier. "This examination requires an enormous effort of mind and memory to recall a vast amount of facts for the past lorty most of which had thoroughly passed from my. memory. If anybody does uot believe it let theiu try it." I i U.ii According to the certified copies of the minutes of the Council proreedings on April 1 and 2, 1868.

Councllmen Moody, bar-stow, Miller, Hobart. Wilcox and Campbell and President Pendleton must have rushed the two ordinances passed on those days respectively through id a marvelous manner. These minutes and the ordinances were received in evidence by Examiner Heacock. Tne ordinance of April 1 was one to abandon all cause of controversy concerning the title to the water front, and it was introduced by Mr. Moody and passed the same day.

That of April 2 mot a similar fortune upon Mr. Campbell's introduction. It amended the one passed the day before in respect to the time within which Mr. Carpentier was to build his The record of the same day shows 'that Mayor Samuel Merritt was designated to act as a trustee of the water-front company, and that City Attorney John B. Felton consented to address the citizens of Oakland on the Saturday following In relation to water-front matters.

Both the ordinances received unanimous votes. Mr. Brown also Dut in as evidence during the session certain sections of the Oakland charter of March, 1852. and a number nt acts of the Legislature, including the "compromise act" of March 31, 1868. This "compromise act" was one to empower Oakland to confirm its transfer of the water front to Mr.

Carnentier. Mr. Brown asttod, after he read the act respecting the railroad negotiations, what Mr. Car pen tier meant in a statement to the effect that "all hands" had gone to Sacramento to get the bill through the Legislature. "I don't think that I said 'all hands' went to Sacramento, but that the Mayor of Oakland, Dr.

Merritt, and John B. Felton, the City Attorney, were in Sacramento to secure the passage of an act, John 11. llobart was also there. He was a member jof the City Council. I do not remember whether or not ho was at that time President of the Council.

Mr. Moody was also i there, and I believe Fred M. Campbell. It is my impression that all the Couucil-nen there. The act was the one just read." A document was offered just previous to adjourning showing that au ordinance had been passed approving Carpen tier's wharf at street, and also approving the schoolhouse built by him.

The same measure allowed him to build a wharf at Castro street instead of at the foot of either or streets. It was decided to adjourn until 11 a.m. next Tuesday, A SOUTHERN PACIFIC TRICK. An intelligent young fellow, with whom the reporter struck up a conversation, when he 'learned that the latter was connected with The Call, said: "Although I'm working for the Southern Pacific road and happen on this boat to-day because I'm with some friends who wanted to come over on her, I don't mind giving you a pointer about the way our people are going to give the new scheme in opposition to this boat a good sendoff. "If you happen down to the dock tomorrow at any time when the Alameda is coming or going on her first day's trips under the new order of things you'll be at the number of passengers she will have on board.

The Southern Pacific is going into this fight with the expectation of winning it at whatever cost, and its officials know that a great deal depends upon the manner in liicli the public look upon. the now move. "Of course it wouldn't do for the Alameda to run with a light list passengers while the Rosalie carried good crowds. That would indicate at the start that the public is going to allow sentiment to Influence it in the contest and that the cheaper fare offered by tbe Alameda is not going to have its anticipated effect." In fact, a poor day's patronage Saturday would do tire new scheme an injury the influence of which it might take months to counteract. "So the-e longheaded managers have provided for just such an emergency.

Tickets for the Alameda will be distributed gratuitously and a liberal manner among the families of -trusted shoph-mds and other employes of road, and a hint dropped in the right quarter that it will be a good idea for toe women folks as well as fathers, husbands and brothers to come over' to, San: Francisco and enjoy tbe ride or as many rides as they see hf, and the more the better. The shopmen, you know, only work four days a week now, beginning with the present week, and as they lose no time and the trip costs nothing, many of them will be glad to obey tbo implied orders of their superiors." STRUCK BY AN ENGINE. Michael Regan Mangled by a Southern Pacific Train. Michael Regan, a saloon-keeper living at 306 Fourth street, was seriously injured by a Southern Pacific locomotive yesterday afternoon. While crossing the track at Twenty-second and Shotwell streets he failed to hear the warning whistle of an outward-bound passenger train.

He was almost beyond danger when the engine struck him and buried him several feet from the track. The train sped on, leaving the unfortunate man lying badly mangled and unconscious. He was loiind by Policeman Mc- Carty, and conveyed in the patrol wagon to the Seventeenth-street station. From there the wounded man was sent to the City aud County Hospital. The physicians f.

und noon examination that he had received a fracture of two left ribs, several scalp wounds and numerous cuts and bruises. At a late hour last night Regan's injuries were said to be of a very serious nature, one of the ribs having pierced a lung. TO THE FLAMES. Seized Opium Doomed to Destruction. At the Last Auction Sale It Would Not Bring the Amount Due for Revenue Taxes.

Rather a new departure for the heads of the customs and internal revenue departments will it be when the furnace in the basement of the Appraiser's building is made to perform the oflice of burning 191 five-tael tins of opium. The stuff is doomed to that method of destruction by a letter from Commissioner of Internal Revenue Joseph S. Miller, and the fire will probably be started very soon. I The nostrils in that neighborhood may not boas partial to opium fumes as those of the average Mongolian, and it is for that reason that either a Sunday or some night may be selected. This amount of opium was left over at Spear's auction sale about tin; end of June, because it would not bring the 55 per can which the tax Amounted to.

The tax upon opium is SIO per pound, and a fivetael tin about a half-pound. The internal revenue laws require that when articles of this kind are seized they must be sold at public auction utter ten days' advertising in the press, but if they do not bring a sum equal to the internal revenue tax they aie to be destroyed. Heretofore, however, such articles were sold as "'unfinished material," but after a report was sent on to Washington the Internal Revenue Department found that the opium was the finished product and that it would have to be burned if the sum of £5 per tin was not realized. The tobacco act of March 1. 1870.

is made applicable to opium under tin- McKinley law. Section 3468 of the Revised Statutes refers to the sale, and section 33(39 to the destruction of seized goods. At the sale referred to only a small por- I tion of the opium offered brought as much as S5 per tin. For the great bulk of it only S4 and even as low as S3 was bid. This fact was reported to the department, and i Commissioner Miller the unsold ooium to be When the drug is thus destroyed Internal Revenue Collector Quinn.

His attorney, Henry C. Dibble, hied Dapers to that effect in the United States District Court venterday. Jew Geong Chun represents that the opium was nf domestic manufacture, ami therefore not subject to customs duties, and he denies that it was "concealed" at the place mentioned. P4p EXCLUSIVE RIGHTS. Permanent Injunction in the Jaeger Underwear Case.

A final decree was made by Judge Mc- Kenna of the United States Circuit Court yesterday in favor of the Dr. Jaeger Sanitary Woolen System Company of New York and against Schoenholz Bros. Co. of this city. The company first named had brought an injunction suit against the latter firm to restrain it from offering and exposing for sale imitations of the Jaeger woolen underwear as genuine.

The order made by the court is a permanent injunction. As the "Jaeger" goods have a reputation for being of pure wool, the Judge found, among other things in his decree, the following: "That among said goods so exhibited and, sold and offered for sale by. the respondents were go ids made with a large admixture of vegetable namely, cottonproducing an inferior article and tending to throw discredit on the reputation of complainant and its manufacture and in the goods dealt in by the complainant." The complainant company has the exclusive right to handle in tnis country the manufactures of Dr. Gustav Jaeger of Stuttgart, Germany. The patent infringement case of Edward and Oliver W.

Co "Dtry consumption kills more victims that, any other MORE STEAMERS. Two Passenger- Boats for the North American.

Captain Jenkins En Route to the Atlantic Coast to Effect a Charter. Increasing Business. Upon the arrival in Panama of the steamship Keweenaw, which sailed on Thursday, Captain W. 11. Jenkins, her commander, will proceed at once to New York commissioned to charter two passenger steamships to ply between San Francisco, Panama and way ports in Central America.

His mission has been kept secret by the officers of the company, who have found it profitable to conceal their plans until they have matured, but the information comes to The Call from a perfectly authoritative source. At this time there is a great deal of idle shipping on the Atlantic Coast ami it. is thought Captain Jenkins will.be aide to accomplish his mission with small delay. His instructions are to take none but first-class steamships and each must have a carrying capacity of 3000 tons. One of the steamers will probably be brought to San Francisco under command of Cup-tain Jenkins.

None of the fleet of the North American Navigation Company are adapted to passenger traffic, and the present purpose is to secure steamers adapted equally to passenger and freight service, If the Keweenaw, for instance, were fitted up fur human freight she would add at least SSOOO to her income every trip. Having secured the cream of the freight business between the Atlantic Coast and San Francisco, and feeling confident that the traffic will be permanent, the company now enters the field for passengers. The same intense feeling against injustice done and of desire freedom from extortion which created the North American Company and established it as a great factor in the transportation problem of California will support it in all its undertakings, and there is not a doubt in the minds of the management that the passenger business will be a success from the start. This is a dull season, yet the Keweenaw brought up on her last trip over 4000 tons of freight, and still had to leave at Panama a full lead for the St. Paul, which in turn had to leave several hundred tons.

It is understood that the St. Paul, whose capacity for freight is too small for the Panama trade, will laid off on the arrival of the El Progreso, which put into Bin de Janeiro August 8 for repairs to her boilers. The North American Company is noncarrying the lamer share of heavy freights between the Atlantic Coast and Puget Sound. It is taken from here north in the colliers, which accept a low rate rather fian go in ballast. The tariff from New York to Seattle via the isthmus and San Francisco is a reduction of 40 to 60 per '-ent on the rail rate, and neither the Northern Pacific nor the Great Northern will be able to meet the water route without demoralizing their entire coast business.

It is reasonably sure that the North American will continue to hold its Puget Sound business. THE STEEL YACHT. Official Trial Trip of the Primero. The Results Prove Very Events in Local Yachting Circles. The new steam yacht El Primero made her official trial trip yesterday.

It was over the course laid out by the officers of the Hastier when she was here last, and is two miles long. The El Primero went over the course four times. The first time she was worked at 130 revolutions a minute, the second time at 200, the third lime at -iii. and the fourth and last time at 330. At that number, she made a maximum, speed of Vi 1 miles an hour, with an average of miles.

an hour. This is threequarters of a an hour faster than her contract calls for. The working of the engines when the yacht was pushed to 330 revolutions was something wonderful. There was no jarring, kicking or hitching, and not the least vibration. J.

The chances of the Pacific Yacht Club holding a regatta on September 9 are very slim.

With the Jessie out of commission, the Aggie down south, it would only leave the Lurline in, and as A. 11. or J. D. Snreckels does not care for a victory of that kind it is almost certain to be declared off.

Battered by Hoodlums. Samuel Burke, a teamster living at 1233 Clementina street, was in a saloon last night at the corner of Gilbert and Bryant streets, when he got into an altercation with a number of hoodlums.
