SWEDISH PLAN MEETS APPROVAL VOTERS GLADLY AFFIX THEIR SIGNATURES Holiday Festivities Interfere With Gothenburg Canvassers, but Re. suits Are Exceeding Expect. atlont of Committee I According to statements made by Campaign Manager R ' Hutton the Gothenburg system Is meeting with n ■warmer reception from the voters of Los Angelea than the promoters of tho project had predicted In thell. rosiest dreams. In order thnt tho op position may not learn the resources of the Gothenberg committee Manager Hutton refuses to give out nny flßures, but declares that he will tell some In teresting facts during tho latter part of next week. "As nearly as T erm figure fid per cent of the voters we hnve encountered hnve readily Rlgned our petitions nnd this Is much better than I have dared to hope. We do not want, to give our ammuni tion to tho enemy nnd for that reason I cannot tell how many signatures we have secured. "The fact that tills Is n. holiday week mnkes the work of securing names harder. Voters arc not easy to find in their accustomed places nnd when found ure generally too busy with thoughts of Christmas presents to con- Klder our project us seriously as they should. This condition will probably prevail until after the first of the year, when wo hope for even belter results. "The condition of the great register has also been a. source of considerable annoyance to us. We have found that voters have hern registered two or «-lhree Mines In tho same precinct; that 'to addresses given are vacant lots . id others are rowsh,ods nnd In one In ,*! v'lince we found a school house credit ■",, A with sixty-live votes. These things '.nave all to bo straightened out, and 'this, of course, requires time." CHARGE FRAUD IN BIG DEAL Lawsuit May Grow Out of Affairs of California Development Company A complaint charging diversion of stock nnd fraud In tho handling of com pany property has been prepared by Judge John S. Chapman, representing five prominent bankers of I,os Angeles and Epes Kandolph, ngainst George Chaff ey, A. M. Chaff ey, A. IT. Hober 'find N. W. Stowell, former officers of the California. Development company. At present the suit, which involves mil lions. Is at a standstill while attorneys are Investigating the charges, and the instrument may never be filed. Fraudulent diversion of hundreds of thousands of dollurs belonging to the development company Is the chief charge In the complaint, which the de fendants-to-be anawer by chiirslng per sonal antagonism on tho part of tho plaintiffs. June 22 last the officers of the com pany were changed and Epes Kandolph was elected president. Shortly there after the books were turned over to the. Ilassel Auditing company, and upon their report the. complaint is based. ■' The auditors claim that George Chaf ■fey illegally took -4!>o shares, worth J249,000, from the assets of the Califor nia Development company; that he and fi Heber, with a majority of proxies be ' tween them, hold a. meeting and ap proved a contract whereby he was to receive thoue shares in return for ser vices. They assert that Chaff ey's side of the contract was not lived up to and that on this account the transaction was mcgai. pvnoi Under Chaffcy's management the company cut an intake into Mho Colo rado river in Mexican territory. This is imid to have been one of the causes of the flood which swamped tho ".salt works and submerged the Southern Pacific's tracks. Chaffey denies the assertions made by the. other side. YARD MAN KILLED BY CARS William G. Nolan, Employe of South. em Pacific, Crushed to Death While at Work William O.

When tho switch tender saw the cars strike Nolan he made a desperate at tempt to drag the victim from under the wheels, but was unsuccessful. Th*t body was terribly mangled. Nolan was an unmarried man, 3'> years of age. lie came to Los Angeles two years ago and has been in the em ployment of tho Southern Paciflo since Ills arrival. , •An inquest was held yesterday after noon and a verdict of accidental death was returned.

Donrdorff, who hns devoted her life to teaching children to care for the little dumb creatures around thorn, has formed a new plan by which she hopes to enlist the chil dren of Los Angeles In the ranks of workers for the protection of animals. "The Young Defenders' league" Is the name of the organization which she Is forming nnd II is to be composed exclusively of boys. The only requirement for member ship is to be a boy. Tt matters not a bit whether you comn'from the richest home in the city or are forced to sell newspapers for a living, you are eligible to the defenders' ranks. Every boy who joins will . take a pledge to be kind to all animals and to do nil in his power to induce others to be kind to thum. In speaking of her work nnd plan yesterday Mrs. Deardorff said; "I feel that humane education is necessary for the children and they should be. taught that it Is not only their duly but their privilege to pro tect those wciiker'than themselves. "1 believe that In the heart of every boy there is the instinct to do right. All that is needed is to have it brought to the surface. If the boys are taught to be kind to animals it will inukc them kinder to their fellows. "I expect that six thousand boys will Join the ranks of tlv; young defenders pncl at the time tho Fiesta is held next year I hope to sen that number of them marching the streets, waving banners and wearing badges to pro claim that they believe, in defending the poor creatures that cannot defend themselves.
