THE RIVER'S BED.
THE COUNCIL. OBJECTS TO ITS
BEING/ NARROWED.
Tho Terminal Railway Will Probably
Withdraw Its Application for an
Amendment to lie Franchise.
Pursuant to adjournment on Monday
last, the city council met at 10 o'clock
yesterday morning for the purpose of
considering the application of the Los
Angeles Terminal Railway company for
an amendment to its franchise along the
east bank of the river, with reference to
the projecting rocky point at the Macy
street cannery.
After the usual preliminaries had
been disposed of, Mr. Wirsching stated
that the council had, in company with
the company's representatives, visited
the point round which it was proposed
to build the road, and thoroughly inves
tigated the matter.
Mr. Summerland then presented the
following protest, attached to which
were the signatures of forty-seven prop
erty holders residing on the river front
between Macy and First streets:
"We do hereby entreat your honor
able body not to allow said railway com
pany, or any other company, to contract
the limits of the official bed of the river
to less than 300 feet at the Macy street
bridge, as a less passage or water way
than that would be inimical to our im
mediate interests and detrimental to the
interest of the city if said river at that
place is curtailed of its full proportions.
This winter may bring down upon us,
and the city generally, a dire calamity
by tne washing out of the old channel
to Alameda street, as it attempted to do
in the floods of 1884 and 1885, and on
Christmas day of last year, when the
waters rose so rapidly as to be within
six inches of the top of the Santa Fe
levee on the west end of the Aliso street
bridge, which, had not the levee broken
below the First street bridge, would
have resulted in the great loss of prop
erty and, perhaps, as in years past, also
loss of life.
"If a railway must be built to enable
us to have a levee on the east side, let
the railway diverge easterly at the dis
tillery until it strikes the track of the
San Gabriel Valley railway company,
and follow the course of the arroyo to
the eastern end of the Aliso-street bridge
northerly, at which place they can join
with the levee again and proceed on its
course to the ocean. It is not requisite
to the levee along the cannery front,
as the heavy natural rock, propeily
faced, straightened and graded, would
form a better levee than could be con
structed by driving piles and tilling with
sand.
"Let the river retain its 300 feet in
width by cutting off the rock, but if the
railway must go that way let them buy
out the cannery or condemn the right oi
way."
The petitioners further claim that by
building the levee as proposed by the
Terminal railroad, the river bed would
be considerably narrower at this point
than it is now, and the consequence
must be disastrous to the levee on the
west side when the river rises. They
suggest as a remedy that the rocks be
blasted out at this point so as to conform
with the official bed of the river, which
is 300 feet wide.
After this had been read, Mr. Sum
merland moved to deny the application
for an amended franchise.
Mr. Moore, one of the protestants, ad
dressed the council on behalf of his fel- |
low citizens on the river front; and j
Judge P>. W. Lee, who represented the
railroad company, was also heard in the
matter.
President Frankenfield declared him
self opposed to any measure which pro
posed to narrow the river bed.
After a number of the property holders
had been heard, the matter was discussed
at some length, and finally it was de
cided to refer the franchise back to the
board of public works, it being under
stood that the railroad company would
withdraw its application and build upon
the bluff through the cannery property.
The sewer committee's report was
then read, as follows:
Your committee, to whom was re
ferred the message of the mayor, return
ing unapproved the demand of the
Squthern California Coal and Clay com
pany for $2365.20, also the California
Sewer Pipe company for $3048.85, rec
ommend the payment of the same, not
withstanding the objection of the mayor.
We believe the price reasonable. It
was the lowest we could obtain at the
time, and we believe it is the lowest
that can be obtained.
Major Danforth, who represented the
California Sewer Pipe company, then
addressed the council at some length,
apologizing for it by Baying that bis
company had been frequently attacked
and felt that it was called upon now to
reply to these attacks.
Referiing to the mayor's message
vetoing thademand of the company for
sewer pipe furnished, Major Danforth
said:
"His honor is pleased to state that
the price at which the pipe is sold to
the city is three times what it can be
bought for on board the -jars in the
east, and if it should cost three times as
much to manufacture pipe here as it
does there, and we pay three times as
much, the profits they make (referring
to local manufactories) on the sale of
pipe would then be three times as much
as it should be.'
"Now as to the difference in the cost of
manufacture between the east and here,
your attentiou is invited to the follow
ing comparative statement, which can
be verified:
"Our coal costs us a fraction less than
$10 per ton. In Akron coal costs less
than $1.50 per ton, or, if you please, six
tons of coal there for what we are
obliged to pay for one ton here.
"Our clay delivered at our factory
costs us $3 per ton. In Akron clay de
livered costs 15 cents per ton, or twenty
tons there for the cost of one ton here.
"We pay our laborers $2 per day, and
from that up to $165 per month, accord
ing to the skill required. In Akron the
pay of the laborer is not to exceed $1.10
per day.
"Supplies other than those above
enumerated cost us $2 for every $1 simi
larly expended in Akron.
"Repairs cost us nearly $5 for every $1
so expended in the east.
"By taking the minimum of (one) of
the five items enumerated, you will ob
serve that the total of cost will be $22
here as against $4.25 at Akron, or an
expenditure of a trifle over $15.17 to
produce a result here which can be ac
complished in the east at an outlay of
$1. You will, therefore, observe that
the cost of manufacturing here is more
than five times what it is in the east."
He denied the statement of the mayor
that the pipe purchased at Akron, Ohio,
at 62ȣ cents, IB any cheaper when deliv
ered in Los Angeles than the flame pipe
here purchased a,. $1.00. The difference,
owing to freight aud cartage, would be
TTIE LOS ANGELES HERALD; FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 7, 1890.
in favor of the company to the extent of
the difference between $1.95 and $2.12.
This does not include breakage in ship
ping, which amounts to about 10 per
cent, on the loss by rejection upon in
spection by city inspectors, which is
quite considerable, both of which losses
the city would have to bear were it to
purchase its pipe abroad.
"The points involved in this issue are
not new," said Major Danforth. "They
have been investigated and reported
upon by the sewer committee of your
honorable body, and were there exist
ing reasonable cause for apprehension,
those gentlemen are too observing not
to have detected it, and too loyal to the
public not to have shown it up."
In conclusion he said:
"In the past two years the California
Sewer Pipe company have expended
something like $250,000 on their plant,
etc., and $40,000 in wages. We intend
to be a productive fixture in your midst
if permitted to exist."
Tbe two bills were then carried by
unanimous vote over the mayor's veto.
A message was received from the
mayor vetoing a number of demands on
the treasury from the street superin
tendent's office for the pay of street
carts. The demands were for $4 per
team instead of $3.50, as provided by
law, and the making of the demands for
$4 was a clerical error, and was inad
vertently passed by the council. The
necessary change was made, and the de
mands so approved.
On motion of Mr. Hamilton, the city
attorney was instructed to prepare and
present an ordinance on Monday next
calling for a municipal election to elect
city officers, to be held on the first day
oi December, 1800.
On motion of Major Bonsall, the
amended ordinance of intention to re
grade First street, and fixing the dis
trict of assessment for the same, was put
upon its passage, but when the roll was
called only five members voted for it,
and the president decided that the mo
tion to adopt the ordinance was lost.
Mr. Shafer appealed from this decision,
but the city attorney, who was present,
held that as it provided for an assess
ment, six votes would be required to
carry it through.
The matter of adopting the forty-aeven
precincts, into which the city has been
laid off by the county authorities, as
precincts in which the city election
shall be held, came up and was referred
to the city attorney for report. It was
claimed that in some instances the pre
cincts as laid out overlapped one an
other.
The council then adjourned.
A FACT ACCOMPLISHED,
Is What the Belt Railway System Will
Soon Be.
City Engineer Fred Eaton returned
from the north yesterday, after an ab
sence of several weeks, during which
time he has visited most of the large
cities on the coast, on a tour of investi
gation of the electric system of street
railroading.
He expressed himself to a Herald re
porter yesterday afternoon as delighted
with the result of his trip, and the
treatment he and the other representa
tives of the Electric Belt road of this
city had received everywhere they went.
He is of the opinion that electricity is
unquestionably the power of the
future for street railroading, as
it can be operated at so much
less expense than the cable sys
tem, and is in every way its superior.
He had visited every electric road on
the coast,and found them all on not only
a paying basis, but clearing big profits
annually. They were extremely popu
lar, on account of their rapidity and
smoothness of motion, the jolting and
jar of the cable system being entirely
done away with.
Speaking of the Belt line, Mr. Eaton
sail that it was not a speculative
scheme, but would soon be an accom
plished fact. Contracts for the plant
were already practically let, and work
would soon be commenced. He was not
at liberty to state who were behind
the scheme, but the projectors would be
publicly announced in about two weeks
and would astonish those who doubted
the genuineness of the scheme. Every
known improvement in the mechanical
world would be embodied in the plant,
and special attention will be paid to the
comfort of its passengers by the build
ing of roomy and comfortable cars for
their accommodation.
Mr. Eaton compared Los Angeles with
the other leading cities on the coast,and
said that he was much surprised but ex
tremely gratified to find that San Fran
ciscans had changed their opinion of
Los Angeles very considerably of late.
They seemed to think that a city that
could go through such a slough of
despond as Los Angeles anl emerge un
scathed as she has, must not be over
looked, and many of them expressed
their determination to invest heavily
here in the near future.

tario, to N. G. HershcyandJ. M. Engle.
These gentlemen are wealthy and influ
ential representatives of the Dunkard
church, and this purchase by them
means much in the way of development
for Southern California, as many will
follow them to their new home at Es
wena.

mind began to wander about a month
ago, but it has only been a week that
his disease took a violent turn. His
mania is suicidal and homicidal. Weed
is 45 years of age, married and the
father of six children. He was com
mitted to Stockton, and Deputy Sheriff
Kearney took him up last night to the
asylum.

Made Ills Will Before Bobbing the Train.
A startling feature of tho train rob
bery near Brewton, Ala., was developed
recently. Criminal court was in session,
and Solicitor Stallings had been active
in having the robbery fully investigated.
He says the evidence is conclusive as to
Rube Burrows being the perpetrator.
He has positive evidence that only two
days before the train robbery Burrows
called on Capt. Green, a prominent at
torney, and, disclosing his identity un
der professional honor, asked him to
write his (Burrows') last will and testa
ment.
He said to the lawyer that he had been
outlawed without a show, and a large
price had been put upon his head. He
expected to be killed at any moment,
and he wanted to dispose of the little he
possessed in due form. He said he had
some money, and his family would know
where it was. He has a sister living
about thirty miles from Brewton, just
across the Florida line, and was stopping
with her at the time he had the will
written.
It is generally believed that Burrows
had in contemplation the Escambia river
bridge train robbery, and was preparing
for all emergencies.—Mobile Register.
Buined by Chess.
In the committal of Fred Elder, of De
troit, for vagrancy is written the close
of the life of one of the brightest news
paper men Michigan ever saw. Fifteen
years ago Elder, who had graduated at
Amherst college with high honors and
obtained his diploma from the law school,
came to Michigan as a newspaper man.
His mind was of the brightest, keenest
kind, aud he could call to mind the very
page and paragraph of any quotation
from Blackstone or Kent, and was a per
fect encyclopedia on Shakespeare. He
learned to play chess and became en
raptured with the game. His love for
chess overcame his care for food and his
profession, and he lost his position. Step
by step he drifted down, sacrificing any
thing for the game.—Detroit Cor. Phila
delphia Press.
A "Dimple" and a Spark.
A fire was caused in a singular way
the other day<a Highland park, opposite
New Brunswick, N. J. The handsome
country residence of Peter Zimmerman
was discovered to be on fire. The flames
were first seen in a bay window at the
east end of the third story hall, where
the sun was shining in. It is concluded
that the fire was started by a dimple in
the window glass contracting the sun's
rays. The flames were quickly extin
guished by using water from the tank on
the roof. —Philadelphia Ledger.
At the public land sale at the state
house in Augusta, Me., not a single per
son appeared to bid. By telegraph and
letter, however, five bids were received
and twenty lots of land were sold. This
absence of bidders in person rendered
the sale the most novel in the annals of
the state.
