kilted, stated that at the time of the
accident he was registering in the oflice
at Ravenna. The train had stopped to
take water at the tank, about 900 yards
from the depot. He did not know tbat
there waa a train following his own, His
train was about an hour late, and had
been standing still about aix minutes.
It had just commenced to pull out when
the collision occurred. Hie train was
Btanding on a Bharp bend, and the engi
neer on the colliding train could not
have seen it until he got within three
car lengths. An engineer waa aupposed
to have his train under control when

brakeman on train 23. He heard the
other train coming and gave the signal.

train, aaid that on coming into Ravenna
he slowed up to 10 miles an hour. When
within sis lengths of the regular he saw
the red lights on the rear end of the ca
boose. If he had been 10 car lengths
away he could have stopped in time.
He had received no word at Mojave
about the train ahead, ft was custom
ary to notify an engineer of a train

trains following. He saw the flagman

Johnson, J. B. Rawn, H. Gould,-T.
Kahoole, Fred Voss, I. Bodin, W. A.
Hereey, J. Skinner, I. Geiße. W. Gor
man and J. J. Gee returned the follow
ing verdict:
"We find the deceased came to his
death by reaaon of the collision between
an extra train and a regular train on the
Southern Pacifij railroad, the former
following the latter, and the regular
train being late, the absence of orders
to the extra notifying them of this fact,
was the cause of the accident."

POLICEMEN DISMISSED.
DETECTIVE BOSQUI AND OFFICER
FARMRR GlCr THEIR CONGE.
A Surprise at Yesterday's Session of the
Police Commission —No Other
Changes Made—The Vacancies
Promptly Filled.
An adjourned meeting of the Board of
Police Commissioners was held yesterday
at 9 o'clock a.m. Commissioners Rowan,
Bradisb, Tufta, Bosbyshell and Welden
were present. The resignation of Officer
Chas. A. Stephens, who' had been act
ing as city jailor, dated May 31, 1893,
waa read and on motion of Mr. Bosby
shell it was accepted. Mr. Bosbyshell
also moved that Officer O. E. Farmer be
discharged from the force. The motion
waa unanimouely carried. Farmer has
always had a propensity for expressing
opinions concerning bis superiors and
their actions in a way obnoxieua to
them, and only recently expressed him
self in regard to the mayor in a very
offensive manner.
Officer W. A. Bosqui, the well-known
detective, waß also discharged from tbe
force on the motion of Mr. Weldon.
The commissioners were divided on the
question of taking such decided action
in regard to him. Messrs. Bradisb and
Bosbyshell especially opposed a hasty
decision and asked that tbe accused be
given a hearing. On the question com
ing to a vote, however, it was decided
that be should be discharged. The vote
was as follows: Ayes—Tuffs, Weldon
and Mayor Rowan. Nays—Bosbyshell
and Bradisb.
guello "be' appointed on the force"vice
Farmer, Mr. Weldon moved that A. O.
Vignag ha appointed vice Stephens, re
signed, and Mr. Bra dish moved that
John Lennon be appointed vice Bosqui.
These appointments were voted for and
unanimously approved, after which the
board adjourned.
The action in these removals was taken
in open court and was considered on
personal complaint, no written charges
being introduced.
Mayor Rowan was adverse to express
ing himself about the matter later in the
day, and remarked tbat the least said
the better, as the men might probably
be back on the force within a few
months.
The officers who today received their
conge' are generally regarded as good
men, outside the several charges brought
against them.
Mr. Charles Stephens resigned be
cause he haa had a better position ten
dered to him. He has made an excel
lent record as a jailor, and no fault can
be found witb him. ,

LOS ANGELES HERALD! FRIDAY MORNING, JUNE 2, 189.-?.
DROWNED HERSELF IN WESTLAKE
The Fate of British Consul Mor
timer's Sister.
While Deranged from Illness She
Commits the Fatal Act.
She Waa Seen Struggling In the Water
bnt All Attempts to Rescue Her
Proved Futile—Detail* of
the Sad Affair.
Miss Mary F. Mortimer, aged 45yeara,
sister of Britißh Vice-Consul C. White
Mortimer, ended her existence last night
by throwing herself into the water at
Weetlake park.
Miss Mbrtimer waa seen about 7:30
struggling in the water by apasaer-bj,
who gave the alarm. Charlea Van Valk
enberg of 1631 Ingraham street, accom
panied by a friend, jumped into a life
boat and pulled out to the drowning
woman. She had drifted out to about
100 feet from the chore, and as they
pushed off their boat she gave a atifled
cry and threw up her hands. When the
rescuers reached her body life waß ap
parently extinct. Aa quickly as possi
ble, however, her body was taken to the
boat honse, where J. McKiliip, who has
the contract for letting out the boats, in
company with other sympathisers, did
everything in his power to resuscitate
the lifeless remains. Dr. Lasher ar
rived soon afterwards, but there had
been no hope from the first, and there
was nothing to be done except crosß the
dead woman's hands upon the lifeless
breast and keep away tho curious crowd.
Just at this time ex-Mayor Hazard
telephoned out to McKiliip that he had
reaaon to believe tha a woman who was
deranged was wandering about the park,
and McKiliip waa requeated to look
after her. Mr. Hazard was told that
tbe body of a woman bad been already
recovered and was awaiting identifica
tion. On bearing thia Mr. Hazard tele
phoned that be would come out to claim
tbe body. Shortly afterwards he ar
rived in company witb Mr. Mortimer.
*A man went forward with a lantern,
but there waa no need for a light; with
a groan Mr. Mortimer buried bia face in
his hands, and leaning on the shoulder
of his old friend, Mr. Hazard, he stag
gered out of the staring crowd, and sup
ported by bis friend gave way to hia
grief.
Mr. Hazard gave the following facts to
the Herald reporter:
Miaa Mortimer bad been suffering con
siderably of late, and for the laat few
days had been slightly out of her mind.
She lived with her mother, Mra. Morti
mer, on Grand avenue, and was in the
habit of driving every day in Weattake
park with her mother.
Several times lately on returning
from the drive she had remarkee
that she was afraid of the water, and
tbe drives had been discontinued. Yea-
terday afternoon Mrs. Mortimer went
ont by herself, and on returning about
aix o'clock waa told by the maid that
Miss Mortimer waa upstairs. She waa
not to be found however, and her
mother, becoming nervoua, informed
Mr. Hazard who Uvea close by. Know
ing what Miaa Mortimer had said itbou,t
the water in the park tbe ex mayor tel
ephoned to the park., as baa already been
stated, the meaaage arriving too late to
"JeTiy"*"* mnati m m.Hnn r\f #Vm f- a.
The body was conveyed to Mrs. Mor
timer's house by Chase & Co., where it
will remain to await the inquest.
If the lights at the far end ot the water
had been lit the woman'a life might
have been saved, for there were several
boat loada of people on the lake at the
time; the plsca, however, was m dark
neaa.
A shocking feature of the affair waa
the behavior of two young women and a
man who, taking seats directly in front
of the body, cracked jokes and laughed
among themselves, while Mr. Mortimer
was giving way to his grief. It ia need
less to say they were promptly repri
manded.

vigorously objected, and when arrested
there were 17 Chinamen hanging around

him.
He was taken aick about three weeks

JOHNNY GOT HIS GUN.
Depnty Sheriff Writy Off to Oakland on
a Hunt.
Deputy Sheriff J. C. Wray leaves for
Ventura today. He takes with him his
new rifle, so the other deputy sheriffs
Bay.
Johnny has a reputation as a hunter
in and around Ventura. A few days ago
he received a parcel by express which
evidently contained a rifle, and Wray
saw himself the owner of a brand new
gun. When opened there was certainly
a gun there, but it must have been
pae<s in the days of Noah. It had no
lock, and was innbeent of breech. In
shape it was a cross between a blunder
bnsa breed and a fifteenth century how
itzer.
Johnny bore the blow very well, but
it is unlikely he will take hie new rifle
to Ventura witb him today.
