A Faithless Wife—Tbe Cable Sys tem—Other Interest in Events. j c The Police Commissioners met in reg- s ular uession yesterday afternoon at 2 t o'clock. The usual throng of petitioners l: and place-hunters crowded the corridors t leading to the Mayor's office, but, in ac- i' cordance with the rules of the new ad ministration, they were excluded from J the chamber after the meeting was called f, to order. The wisdom of this reguiati in ( is made manifest by the quickness with s which business is dispatched when there " are no intruders. When the regular order of business was taken up I. W. Loomis was appointed special police man for the Chinese theatre. n On motion of Mr. Kuhrts, it was de- w cided to recommend to the Council that U tbe police force be increased by the ap- ij pointment of ten additional men. ' , Officer Fitzpatrick was allowed pay for time lost on account of injuries re- " ceived by an accident while on duty. " The matter of closing the Olive saloon '* at the corner cf Olive and Sixth streets, w came up, and Mayor Bryson stated that n it had been reported to him women were w kept at the place, that it was running n without license and was generally die- * reputable. The Chief was ordered to " look into tbe matter and close the place a if the allegations were found true. P A number of applications for positions c on the force were placed on file. a The application of J. Dupuy for saloon license on Second street near Sin Pedro, was referred to the Chief for investi- fl gation. The application of Shaffer & Batter to remove their saloon from 605 East First ■ to 302 South Spring street, was granted. Michael Ryan asked permission to 0 transfer his license for a saloon at 131 c Upper Main street to Patrick Walsh, n Chief Cooney said: "I want to know the c men who are going to run saloons," and c therefore would not vote to transfer a li- j, cense from one man to another until he v knew the character of the man who was 0 going to get it. It was therefore ordered D that the Chief ascertain whether the t( transfer should be allowed. t( The applications of Marcelin Eyraud ;| for a saloon on Macy street near the cot- „ ered bridge; of Louis Morocco for a sa- j; loon at the corner of Buena Vista and , Walters, and G. H. Coffee and John H. t ' Nubit, at 123 Bequena, were referred to „ the Chief. " Tho proprietors of the saloon at 13 Downey avenue aeked for permission to t change location and transfer license. .. Referred to the Chief. t The matter of the refundment of the : license of Settler & Isaac's referred back t from the Council with a recommendation for favorable action, was referred to the v Chief for still further investigation. The t petitioners claim that they paid $50 for a Q license on tbe Ist of August. Two days later they were burned out and left des titute, and they therefore ask that the $50 or a proportionate amount of it be re- i funded to them. Mrs. Keyes and Mrs. Ransom ap peared before the Board as representa- t lives of the W. C. T. TJ., and reported . that they had understood that the old Board bad agreed to re- 1 yoke the license of the saloon under ' the postoffice, but that it appeared to be 1 running the same as usual. If the license ' had been revoked they asked to have the <■ saloon closed, and if not revoked they ' hoped the new Board would see that it ' was. The Mayor promised the ladies that 1 the matter would be investigated, and j they then retired. 1 Mr. Davis, of the Humane Society, ap- j peared before the Board on behalf of 1 Humane Officer Wright, to have him 1 reinstated as a member of the police ( force on half pay. He read a petition signed by Major E. W. Jones, Major Lee and a large number of other influential ( citizens asking for bis appointment. Mayor Bryson and Chief Cooney both * conceded that Mr. Wright was engaged < in a good work and that he was a useful t and efficient officer. Mr. Kuhrts said he t did not like to set aside the action of the i old Board in this matter, so, for the time < being, the matter was tabled. ] Officer R. E. Lee was allowed to ac- j cept $2 offered him for services in recov- i ering stolen property. A number of bills were presented and : allowed, among them $336 for 1,552 i meais furnished for prisoners during the , month of December. The application of J. H. Murphy for . the position of driver of the patrol wagon ■ was placed on file. Adjourned. j THE 30-MILE RACE. The Becord Beaten—Programme for Future Events. A fair attendance patronized the race track yesterday, although the only event set for decision was the 30-mile race be tween Peppers and Garcia. These con tests, however, seem to have taken a fan hold on the people of Southern California and although there was up to the last ' moment some little hitch in the arrange ments, the event was one of the best of tbe kind ever witnessed on the Los An geles track. After keeping well together for tbe first eight miles, Peppers, the ' colored rider, took a commanding lead, which Garcia, owing to the inferiority of his mount, was unable to overcome. Pepper's horses were in the best pos sible condition, and he succeeded, by ' dint of hard riding, in beating the best previous record for the distance, finish ing the thirty miles in the extraord inarily quick time of 1 hour. 5 minutes ' and 29' a seconds. Pool-Belling was not very brisk, tbe colored rider being a : strong favorite, selling at $20 against $4 for his opponent. Captain Barrett and Mr. C. A. Durfee were judges, and Mr. Geo, Waring official score-keeper. The programme for to-day is a very good one, and some exciting contests may be expected. Both of Baldwin's cracks, Estrella and Grisette, will fill their engagements, and tbe finish be tween Grisette and Dave Douglas in the mile and a quarter handicap ought to be very close. To-morrow Miss Peek will ride several' FIVE CENTS. interesting races. The first will be a nee against one of her hirses, which will make the course witbout a rider. The next event she will ride a mile, Koman, standing, to beat 1:54. The concluding event will be a match for $250 a side, to skeleton wagons, mile neats, two in three, between Miss Peek and Sam Canton, the driver of Bell Boy. AMUiSKMEMIS. "Uncle Ton's Cabin" at the t.am Angeles. The new Uncle Tom's Cabin being played at the new Los Angeles Theater is in many respects a great improvement on the old one. The company is a well selected one, and all the members are well up in their roles. The scenery is good, and the play moves with smooth ness and life. It is gratifying to know that the play is meeting with the success it deserves. As Miss Abbott closed her phenomen ally successful season at the Grand last night, and as this house will be closed for the rest of the week, no doubt the Uncle Tom's Cabin combination will be still better patronized during the re mainder of its stay in this city. Opera Burlesque. Miss Lydia Thompson will appear next week at the Grand Opera House with a burlesque company. The bor leeque to be presented to the lovers of light entertainment is entitled "Pene lope," and is the work of the well-known writer, H. P. Stevens. The pleasing music from the pen of Edward Solomon forms part of the performance, which will be presented in a very elaborate manner. The last nights of tbe week will be ushered in by a new burlesque never before presented on any stage, and Los Angeles is to be honored with the first production. It is said to contain all the elements that make burlesque popular and is entitled Columbus. The costumes and scenery for this production arrived here yesterday. THE CABLE LINES. Arrival of Chief Engineer Wright from Chicago. Mr. A. W. Wright, of Chicago, arrived in town yesterday to assume the duties of Chief Engineer of the Los Angeles cable system. Mr. Wright is a gentle man of national reputation, having been connected with some of the biggest enterprises in the country, distinguish ing himself in every instance. In con versation with a Heralo man in the offices of the company yesterday after noon, Mr. Wright said: "We in tend to keep all our energies cen tered on the work before us until it is completed, as there is a good deal of capital lying idle in the ground. The cable system will be un questionably superior to that afforded by the horse-cars, both as regards the public accommodations and the financial inter ests of the company, for although it is cheaper io operate nitoen horse cars than the same number of cable cars, yet be yond that point the advantages are on the side of the cables and keep increas ing in proportion to the volume of traffic." Mr. Wright will immediately look over what work has already been done and then make his plans as to the completion of the lines. A WIFE'S FAITHLESSNESS. . Blchard Laughlin, Jr., Want* Au Absolute Divorce. A complaint for divorce was filed yes terday by Judge A. J. King, attorney for Richard Laughlin, Jr., whioh, if it comes to trial,will probably be very interesting. The plaintiff alleges that his wife, Anto nio Wilson de Laughlin, has not been true to him and that she has been guilty of adultery. They were married on June 19, 1880, in this city, and according to the complaint have now three children, aged 7, 4 and 2)4 years. The husband alleges that his wife has another child, the age of which he does not know, as it is the offspring of a farmer residing on Date street. He asks for an absolute di vorce and for the custody of his three children. County Taxes. The time for the payment of county taxes has been extended to Satarday evening, after which time they will be delinquent and five per cent, will be added. The total amount of taxes levied this year was about $1,200,000. Of this, $800,000 had been paid up to last Satur day night, leaving about $400,000 to be paid this week. This amount will proDably be reduced by about $20,00* this week and the delinquent list will not be very large. It would nave been much smaller had the accommodations of the Tax Collector's office been better adapted to the quicker transaction of business, and it has often happened every day for the past month that people desirous of paying have after waiting hours to get a chance, gone home with out accomplishing their errand. Pullman Passengers. The following Pullman passengers left yesterday for San Francisco and the East: By the 1:30 p. m. train—James Camp bell, Mr. Harding, Miss Wilson. Colonel E. E. Edwards, D.
