BALLOTS CAST IN ALAMEDA The Saloons Seem to Be Ahead in Eight Precincts. St. Sure Ahead ior Recorder and Taylor for Attorney. The Vote Was Very a Little Over Half That of Two Years Ago- ALAMEDA, April 1t had been hoped that the municipal campaign which came to an end to-day would be conducted in a fair, decent and above-board manner. This had been the case down to within forty-eight hours, but at the last moment certain parties took it upon to issue circulars which had the effect of harming the issuers and benefiting those against whom they were directed.

On behalf of the saloonmen an anonymous circular was issued, which even the printer was ashamed of and had not the race to attach his name to as required by iaw, though bis identity is well known. The writer's identity is also pretty well understood. This circular made a most intemperate attack upon the anti-saloon people of and church people in general, and dealt solely in abuse of the worst kind. The other circular referred to had a name attached to it and was devoted to a vilely libelous attack on R. B.

Tappan, candidate for City Attorney. It was not issued at the instigation of his opponent, Mr. Taylor, however, who earnestly disclaims any responsibility. Nevertheless it aided Tappan instead of injuring him. The contemptible characterof the attack is emphasized by the fact that Tappan is sick abed and unable to take any part In the campaign or to defend himself in any way from such Outside of these effusions, however, the campaign has been mild and the election passed off quietly.

The Board of Health Determined to Stop Certain Practices. OAKLAND, Cau. April The Oakland Board of Health has made what it claims to be a remarkable discovery in connection with the filthy habits of Chinese. There are in this city where Chinese bakers and Chinese cooks si. ray he bread before putting it in the oven from their mouths in the earns manner as they epray clothes.

The board is now engaged in drawing up an ordinance which shall cover as far as practicable the regulation of all places where Chinese are employed other than in private residences. There is already an ordinance in effect prohibiting Chinese from spraying clothes from their mouths, but it has been found almost impossible to enforce it unie-s an inspector be posted permanently in each laundry and this of course is out of the question. The matter has been made very prominent because of a sensational report by Dr. Barah Shuey, a member of the board, in which she has traced a most malignant form of disease of one of her patients directly to the germs fathered by clothes that were to a Chinese waihhouse. Health Officer Bradley is now engaged in inspecting Chinese places and in outlining an ordinance that it is hoped will rrcduce the desired effect.

LIQUOR AT FRUITVALE. An Attempt Being Made to Obtain for Saloons. OAKLAND, April Very earneit efforts are being made by prospective saloon-keepers to break through tne prohibition barrier that has-been erected around the Thirty-third-avenue district. For several years this district has refused to permit saloons within its boundaries, and as a result petitions and protests have bsen numerous before the City Council. It is very evident that the saloonkeepers think that they will nave some influence with the present Council, as today four applications for licences were filed with the City CJerk and more are being prepared for presentation.

They will be bitterly fought by the resii dents. One of the applicants, named Budd, is already a defendant in a pending i case charging him with having sold liquor without a license. Long Time In Probate. OAKLAND, April petition was riled by Attorneys 11 and Leach to-day in the matter of the estate of George W. McCreery, which has been Jn process of probate for twenty-two years.

A WOMAN'S TONGUE. Her Husband In Not Responsible for I Its Wag Ring. OAKLAND, April 12. Judge Greene decided to-day that a husband is not liable for Blander when his wife is the defendant. The case was that of J.

M. Douglass against J. H. McKenzie and wif for $10,000. Judgment was given for $300 against the wife personally.

The court held that the old doctrine if the liability of the husband for the ful acts of the wife grew up under a con dltion of things where the wife and the husband were in a legal sense one person and that person the husband. He could then control the propariy and income of the wife, but with the more liberal policy of recent laws, which recognize the rights of the wife to her interest in the community property and to hold her separate es- tate, the reason for the old policy has I passed. The particularly in Kan- sas ana Illinois cases, have held that the husband is exempt from liability for dam- ages done by the wife in the matter of slander. Judge Greene's decision is the first of its nature delivered in California. Bobbed in Golden Gate Park.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, APRIL 13, 1897. THE McCULLOUGHS TELL THEIR WOES Mesmerism Said to Have Been Used by the Well- Known Doctor. He Denies All Guilt and Re'ers to H.s Wi.e's Written Confession Both Sides Freely Talk of Sensations That Wi 1 Develop Daring the Progress of the Tria'. Oakland OrncE San Francisco Call,) 908 Broadway, April 12. The suit of Mrs.

May C. McCullough against her Husband, Dr. Frank E. McCullougb, lor a diTorce, was called in the Superior Court this morning. Since the bringing of tbe suit Mrs.

Me- Cullougn has made a remarkable state- MRS. MARY McCULLOUGH, Who Wants a Divorce, and DR. McCULLOUGH, Whom She Charges With Being a Mesmerist. ment if it bo true, proves that her husband is a very powerful mesmerist. The complaint shows that Dr.

McCullounli does not findjthe love of one woman sufficient fur his comprehensive nature, and Mrs. McCullouph has into her many family skeletons that have been bidden for more than a year. The plaintiff is several years youngi-r than her husband and is of a haughty disposition, anJ this trait in her character is clearly eviaenced when she tells her story. "We were married," she December 2, 1893, aud for some months everything went well, and one day I was surprised to hear my husbnnd say that there was a woman in the world that he loved more than myself. Very often the doctor would show me, whnn'a Jittle comj pany would be present, how completely he could put a person under his power.

It was no joke, for is an accomplished mesmerist, and i.c has often tried his power on me. He now i hat he holds a written confession from nic in whicu I I admit (hat 1 myself had been polity of I wrongdoing. Whenever he trie I to influence me I always fought him off, but if he ever did succeed he probably made me write the confession he now holds. He used to do strange things and try to put me in a trance, bul I always protested vigorously. "If he produces any alleged confession from me I will charge him with being a mesmerist who U9es the power vested in him for criminal purpoies and I can prove my case.

Several of us once saw him hypnotize a woman jutt to amuse us and then get her to sign a receipt for $1000 after navmg given her but one 5-cent piece. "Dr. McCuilough would discuss with me to my utter astonishment the woman whom be said he loved more than me, but at no time would ne mention her in the presence of another person. He left me alone at times and the absence of cruelty was made up by bis pronounced indiffefnce and neelect. One nipht I did take a etroll ont and went to the Masonic Hall swbere the doctor said he was going to attend a dance.

I saw his phaeton iiitched near the entrance and I got into it and sat down. About midnight the doctor came out with the woman whom he bad gone crazy over. They started to get into the bugiry but discovered me and fled. I Dr. WilKes to drive me home and he did so.

That all my husband has to say against me, that a friend was kind enough to manage the horse for me and get me home safely." Dr. McCuilough says that while living on liust Sixteenth street lots of happened which he would prefer bad been kept secret, but now be ntust make them public to defend himself. "Her charges are devoid of truth," said he, "and spite caused ncr to bring these proceedings. Since separating seven mouths ago she has called on me several times, but I tefused to see her, and she has now brought in the name of a lady whom I scarcely know and whom I have Dot seen for over a year. 1 shall fight this case every inch of the way, aud before we through Mrs.

McCullongh will be sorry that she started it" All parties concerned were not ready today to pre enl their testimony and the trial of the case was continued till next week. CRUSHED UNDER A TREE. Fearful End of George Sims, a Forester of Danville. OAKLAND, April George Sims, a treecutter of Danville, was instantly killed by the sudden falling of a large oak on which he had been working. S.ms has been engaged in the business of cutting trees in Contra Costa and Alameda counties for many years.

The unfortunate man leaves a widow and two children, who were entirely dependent oti his earnings and who are now living at Danville. An examination of the tree which caved tbe fatal accident shows that the oak feil at an angle largely different from that on wh'ch the woodcutter calculated, and had it fallen where he intended he would not have been struck. There is no doubt that a sudden eusi of wind for which he could not possibly have made any provision was responsible for his death. Fire Department Changes. OAKLAND.

BERKELEY, April Magee and M' in, the two representatives of the State University in the annual tennis tournament with Staniord, nave a grievance against the Palo Alto boys on account of the refusal of the latter to piny off the match before the first or second week in May. Alaeee says that it has always been the custom to play off the games during the early part of April, before the spring ''exes" at Berkeley begin, but on account of the desire of Stanford to enter Freeman in both the tennis tourney and the baseball games they have refused to play until after the last baseball match, which occurs on May 4. The University of California "exes" begin on April 26, while those at Stanford do not commence until the latter part May.

The date upon which Stanford wishes to play will fali in the very midst of the Berkeley ''exes," and on this account Magee says he and Mem have a vigorous complaint coming.
