Charges were made before the city council today by Fred Hufschmidt, one of the managers of the West Oakland Athletic club, that the Fruitvale Athletic club had violated a city ordinance. William Allen of the Fruitvale club was informed by the council that that club no longer could give boxing exhi- bitions in the pavilion used by the Wheelmen's club, but must hold con- tests in its own building. Hufschmidt said the Fruitvale and Wheelmen's clubs were one and the same. "It is simply an attempt," Hufschmidt told the council, "which has been suc- cessful so far to get two permits for one club to hold two fights every month. This is not fair play, and that is why I am complaining." Mayor Frank K. Mott said that this method must be stopped and that the Fruitvale club must hold its.fights in its own hall. "A protest soon is to be entered against permitting fights in the Pied- mont pavilion, and we may bo compelled to stop these contests," lie added. It has been the custom of the vity council to grant a permit to the Wheel- men's club for a fight any night within the first ten days of the month, the West Oakland club within the next ten days, and the Fruitvale club within the last ten days. Edward J. Torney of the board of fire underwriters of the Pacific complained to the council that there was no ordi- nance regulating the storing of gaso- line. Fire Chief N. A.

RECORD FRIIT (HOP "The fruit crop of 1912," said .lohn Vallance of ?an Francisco, in his report on "Deciduous Fruits." "was one of the largest in the records, and the fruit turned out averages in size, con- sidering the extremely light rainfall of the winter of 1911-12. The damage suffered by fruit from lack of«rainfall in some localities shows that to ob- tain the best crops of fruit the Cali- fornia fruit grower will have to re- sort to irrigation in the future. "Up to October 31. 1912, there were 12.704 cars of fruit shipped to east- ern markets, this showing a gain of 1,215 cars over the previous year. This does not include the apple shipments, which were ve»y large." The report of T. M. Wilson, chairman of the transportation committee, showed that there were no complaints to register, and in his report on legis- lation, Chairman George C. Koeding said one of the most interesting fea- tures of the work was the realization that growers throughout the country were henceforth to have federal pro- tection.

I suffered awful between the burning and itching, and whatever part of my body it was on would be swollen. I treated for throe months and would get better for a week and then I would be as bad as ever. I saw in the paper about Cuticura, co I sent and got some Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I had the eczema for five months before Ibegan to use Cuticura Soap and Ointment but I got well in a short time after I started to use them. It is a sure cure as I have not been troubled with it since. You ought to see my face now, I have such a nice complexion as soft as a baby's." (Signed) Mrs. Mary Glen- dinning, Dec. 23. 1911.

MOTORMAN ARRESTEDFOR DEATH OF BOY
OAKLAND, Nov. 7. ? Charges weremade before the city council today by
Fred Hufschmidt, one of the managersof the West Oakland Athletic club,that the Fruitvale Athletic club hadviolated a city ordinance.
William Allen of the Fruitvale clubwas informed by the council that thatclub no longer could give boxing exhi-bitions in the pavilion used by theWheelmen's club, but must hold con-tests in its own building.
Hufschmidt said the Fruitvale andWheelmen's clubs were one and thesame.
"It is simply an attempt," Hufschmidttold the council, "which has been suc-cessful so far to get two permits forone club to hold two fights everymonth. This is not fair play, and thatis why I am complaining."
Mayor Frank K. Mott said that thismethod must be stopped and that theFruitvale club must hold its.fights inits own hall.
"A protest soon is to be enteredagainst permitting fights in the Pied-mont pavilion, and we may bo compelledto stop these contests," lie added.
It has been the custom of the vitycouncil to grant a permit to the Wheel-men's club for a fight any night withinthe first ten days of the month, theWest Oakland club within the next tendays, and the Fruitvale club within thelast ten days.
Edward J. Torney of the board of fireunderwriters of the Pacific complainedto the council that there was no ordi-nance regulating the storing of gaso-line. Fire Chief N. A. Ball was in-structed to prepare the necessary ordi-nance.

"The fruit crop of 1912," said .lohnVallance of ?an Francisco, in his reporton "Deciduous Fruits." "was one ofthe largest in the records, and thefruit turned out averages in size, con-sidering the extremely light rainfallof the winter of 1911-12. The damagesuffered by fruit from lack of«rainfallin some localities shows that to ob-tain the best crops of fruit the Cali-fornia fruit grower will have to re-sort to irrigation in the future.
"Up to October 31. 1912, there were12.704 cars of fruit shipped to east-ern markets, this showing a gain of1,215 cars over the previous year. Thisdoes not include the apple shipments,which were ve»y large."
The report of T. M. Wilson, chairmanof the transportation committee,showed that there were no complaintsto register, and in his report on legis-lation, Chairman George C. Koedingsaid one of the most interesting fea-tures of the work was the realizationthat growers throughout the countrywere henceforth to have federal pro-tection.
