EVENTS IN THE COUNTIES BORDERING ON BAY OF SAN FRANCISCO OAKLAND OFFICIALS REPLY TO CHARGES Mott, Turner and Baccus De= nounce I. W. W. Circulators of Recall Petitions Accusations Are False, Is the Contention of Civic Officials OAKLAND. April I.—Answers to the j charges filed in the recall petitions , against Mayor Frank K. Mott. Com- j missioner of Public Health and Safety F. <". Turner and Commissioner of Streets W. J. Baccus i»s»re made today by the officials, In which a vigorous | denial of the separate counts is made. Tt is contended that the accusations | are false, and Turner points out that j the only reason why they have been j brought by the socialists is because they were defeated at the last municipal election. Threats of the recall have been made j ever since that time and these came to I a head when the polite and the Indus- trial Workers <>f the World recently j clashed when the I. AY*. W, refused to abide by the law and insisted on speak- ing on the, streets without a permit. Out of this trouble has grown the ef- forts made by the socialists to invoke the recall, but at the last moment these grounds for the recall were discarded and a number of new charges were j brought, different counts being filed against each official. Since this action has been taken by the socialists the Central Labor council and the Building Trades council have stood aloof and, although the socialists assert that they will back them in the recall proceedings, no definite state- ment to this effect has been issued by the unions. This lack of co-operation from the unions, and the internal dissensions in the socialist ranks growing out of the new charges filed, and the efforts to j include Baccus in the recall, have set back the 1. W~. TV. adherents. JAII, NOT IMSAMTARY Turner, as commissioner of public health and safety, in charge of the po- lice department, in part denounces the I. W. W. as follows: Tho city jail is not insanitary, although an unattractLve residence for the lawless. The charter has not been violated as regards any commissioner's ap- pointments. i utterly deny collecting im- proper fees when expenses of the city engineers office were paid by fee system. This charge was made during the last municipal election campaign and is untenable and un- true. I deny ordering the police to in- vade Hamilton hall or to commit acts of ' lawlessness, -or \;ioi«»ce asrainst ;peaceable citizens .any- . \u25a0' - whtT« ?or ai ; any time.

CHARTER ? NOT VIOLATED Baccus is equally vigorous in his denial of the charges brought against him. He answers in part as follows: Neither the letter nor the spirit of the charter has been violated in making appointments in any city department. All appointments have been made in full conformity with the charter. Sections 28 and 31 provide that the council must de- termine the method of making ap- pointments. The grant of the. East Oakland •water front from the state to the city required that the leases should be made in the manner and upon the terms according to which they were made. The city council had absolutely no discretion in the mat- ter. Renewal of the Seventh street franchise was made as a result of a unanimous popular demand. The terms were the most advantageous »:ver secured in return for a fran- chise granted in this state.

The parade was unique and was wit- nessed by thousands. Aahmes band and Aahmes patrol were in resplendent uniform and the cavalcade was led by a platoon of mounted police. Chief of Police Adelbert Wilson was followed by several hundred Shriners on foot and in automobiles. Circus performers and the trained animals of the Al G. Barnes circus, leased by the shrine, brought up the rear. The enthusiastic crowds in attend- ance assure the success of the circus.

The shores of the lake presented a typical picture of circus day. With banners flying, bands playing, sideshow barkers crying and peanut and lemon- ade venders shrilly hawking: their wares, a remarkable spectacle was pro- vided, and the noise makers were prominent men of Oakland, who have put aside dull care. A portion of the profits will be used in advertising Oakland at the council of the order in Los Angeles and the remainder will form the nucleus of a fund for one of the finest lodge build- ings in the west, to be completed for the opening- of the Panama-Pacific in- ternational exposition.

The plaintiff alleged that they became partners in 1907, with the understand- ing that Tibbitts was to shape the policy of the firm. Hanlon complained that Tibbitts refused to allow Hanlon to inspect the books and that when they \u25a0decided to lease the Pacific shipyards in Alameda county as a new plant, Tib- bitts took it over in his own name and paid $500 deposit on it from $9,000 alleged to belong to the firm. THOUSAND CAME EASILY, BUT THE WAY IS HARD OAKLAND, April I.—J. G. Htnninger was found guilty by a jury in Judge Ellsworth's court on a charge of ob- taining $1,000 by false pretenses.

EVENTS IN THE COUNTIES BORDERING ON BAYOFSANFRANCISCOOAKLANDOFFICIALS

REPLY TO CHARGESMott, Turner and Baccus De=

nounce I. W. W. Circulatorsof Recall Petitions

Accusations Are False, Is theContention of Civic

Officials

OAKLAND. April I.—Answers to the jcharges filed in the recall petitions ,against Mayor Frank K. Mott. Com- jmissioner of Public Health and Safety

F. <". Turner and Commissioner ofStreets W. J. Baccus i»s»re made today

by the officials, In which a vigorous |denial of the separate counts is made.

Tt is contended that the accusations |are false, and Turner points out that jthe only reason why they have been jbrought by the socialists is becausethey were defeated at the last municipalelection.

Threats of the recall have been made jever since that time and these came to Ia head when the polite and the Indus-trial Workers <>f the World recently jclashed when the I. AY*. W, refused toabide by the law and insisted on speak-ing on the, streets without a permit.

Out of this trouble has grown the ef-forts made by the socialists to invokethe recall, but at the last moment thesegrounds for the recall were discardedand a number of new charges were jbrought, different counts being filedagainst each official.

Since this action has been taken bythe socialists the Central Labor counciland the Building Trades council havestood aloof and, although the socialistsassert that they will back them in therecall proceedings, no definite state-ment to this effect has been issued bythe unions.

This lack of co-operation from theunions, and the internal dissensions inthe socialist ranks growing out of thenew charges filed, and the efforts to jinclude Baccus in the recall, have setback the 1. W~. TV. adherents.JAII, NOT IMSAMTARY

Turner, as commissioner of publichealth and safety, in charge of the po-lice department, in part denounces theI. W. W. as follows:

Tho city jail is not insanitary,although an unattractLve residencefor the lawless.

The charter has not been violatedas regards any commissioner's ap-pointments.

i utterly deny collecting im-proper fees when expenses of thecity engineers office were paid byfee system. This charge was madeduring the last municipal electioncampaign and is untenable and un-true.

I deny ordering the police to in-vade Hamilton hall or to commitacts of ' lawlessness, -or \;ioi«»ce •

asrainst ;peaceable citizens .any- .\u25a0' -whtT« ?or ai ; any time. " The : police *

.'. rteny, to me, <ining anything unlaw-ful tnere*Or;elsewhere. *"V-

--\u25a0**.Th!s recall proceeding: is the '\u25a0cul-mination of threats 1 made by defeat- -fa parties after the last city elec-tion. .

J)O) NOT DIRECT POLICE

Mott's reply to the charges in partfollow-;r . .-\u25a0-',-.

The police department was not -directed by me or,= at all to invadeHajtoilton hall March 3 or at any ;

othor time. :.~r .T&e police.force. was ;not directed

by me or at all to commit acts. ofviolence against peaceable citizens -March 3'- or at any other time. \u25a0-

\u25a0 police t force has not been" •\ ueefl by me ?or at all for -. the sup- '

j»r©«£ion -of free speech nor for any• purpose other than ;toi enforce * thelaw . and v for the protection of . \u25a0 the:; ;

lives and property of the citizensof Oakland.

CHARTER? NOT VIOLATED

Baccus is equally vigorous in hisdenial of the charges brought againsthim. He answers in part as follows:

Neither the letter nor the spiritof the charter has been violated inmaking appointments in any citydepartment. All appointments havebeen made in full conformity withthe charter. Sections 28 and 31provide that the council must de-termine the method of making ap-pointments.

The grant of the. East Oakland•water front from the state to thecity required that the leases shouldbe made in the manner and uponthe terms according to which theywere made. The city council hadabsolutely no discretion in the mat-ter.

Renewal of the Seventh streetfranchise was made as a result ofa unanimous popular demand. Theterms were the most advantageous»:ver secured in return for a fran-chise granted in this state.
