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 62»£ 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. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. The Routine Business Transacted Yesterday. Tax Collector Whitney has been allowed by the board one chief clerk at $150, two index clerks at*sloo each, one correspondence clerk at $100, two check mea at $100 each, two re port clerks and two cashiers, all at $100 per month each, and eleven assistants at $75 per month.

Hixon, relating to advertising Los Angeles at Seattle, was referred to the immigration committee, with instructions to confer with the railroad companies, to ascertain if they will distribute advertising matter there. A communication from the San Fran cisco chamber of commerce, asking the chamber for aid in securing the passage of a law authorizing the Trans-Pacific sub-marine cable route to the Hawaiian islands, Australia and New Zealand, was referred to the secretary to draw appropriate resolutions. With reference to a communication from Mayor Gunn of San Diego, asking the co-operation of the chamber in ob taining the location of the army gun factory for Southern California, the sec retary was instructed to write to the board of engineers and ascertain when it will visit Los Angeles, and also to make inquiries respecting tbe desired information. The various committees appointed a week ago to prepare reports for sub mission to the board of engineers, re quested that the public be invited to furnish information regarding iron and fuel supplies. A communication from W. S. Max well, concerning iron ore and coal in southern Utah, was ordered filed for presentation to the board of engineers. The first bulletin of the chamber was voted a success, and the secretary was tendered a vcte of thanks for preparing it. C. M. Wells has returned from Abi lene, Kansas, where he made a sale of his Eswena colony tract, 840 acres in the orange belt, north and east of On 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.

A Budget of Interesting News and Per sonal Notes. E. B. Pierce and family will occupy the Davenport cottage for the winter. Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Watkins of Pe oria, 111., are visiting Santa Monica for a short time. The very interesting services of con firmation were held at the Episcopal church Wednesday, Assistant Bishop Nichols administering the rites of the church to a good-sized class. Considerable money changed hands here over the result, the Democrats re trieving considerable of their losses on Pond by ttfeir gains on Gibson, who carried the two precir.cts outside of the home, as did Munday. Wednesday Mr. and Mrs. John Bas sett were called suddenly to Oakland, to attend the funeral of Mrs. Bishop, mother of Mrs. Bassett. They have the sympathy of the whole community in their affliction. Mrs. Bassett's father died about six weeeks ago. The election passed off here very quietly. In the Santa Monica and Vicente precincts the Democrats made considerable gains over the vote for Harrison, but at tbe Soldiers' home (national) the Republicans had it all their own way, the Democratic workers being unable to cope with the mistaken sentiments of the inmates of the home. The vote in the township (three pre cincts) is as follows: Markham. 454; Pond, 209; Reddiek, 431; Del Valle. 230; Carpenter, 425; Wolfskill, 222; Aguirre, 432; Gibson, 240. All the local Repub lican ticket was elected. The tickets were very much scratched, and it was not until Wednesday morning that the count was completed. AN UNFORTUNATE.

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. AN ELECTION DAY EPISODE. A Voter Charged with Having Bal loted in the Wrong Precinct. J. R.

VVindheim, who is accused of having beaten Miss Zeppa Starr with a broom, will be tried on the 11th at 9:30 in the township justice's court, on the charge of battery. 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. xne commission for the proposed statue of the late Samuel S. Cox has been awarded to Miss Louise Lawson, who is at work also upon the design fo il large and elaborate ornamental fount ain to be erected in Albany.
