2 A UNION DEPOT. It Will Provide All the Roads With One Terminal. A Subscription of $200,000 is Called For. How Far the Work Has Progressed. A Slow Job. The Trunk Lines Have Not Come to Any Decision in the Matter—Other Railway News. On the occasion of his first visit to this city last fall, Mr. Manvel, president of the Santa Fe, remarked in an interview, published at the time in the Herald, that he would like to see his road pro vided with a better depot in this city. At various times since he has expressed the same wish. A number of property owners at the lower end of the business portion took hold of the suggestion, and several months ago started into a move ment to erect a union depot, which should be used by both the main trunk lines, and also by the smaller local roads. Knowledge of this fact was obtained some time ago at the Herald office, but the projectors of this scheme made a special request that nothing be pub lished, lest it should hamper their work. The request was complied with. As there no longer appears any necessity for keeping back the facts in the case, they are now made public. The property on which it is proposed to locate the depot is the tract owned by the Sisters and held for orphan asylum purposes, lying between Commercial, Macy and Apablaza streets. It covers about eight acres. It was bonded sev eral months ago for this purpose by a syndicate of capitalists, of which M. L. Wicks and E. F. Spence were members. Tt was decided that before any definite offer could be made to the roads the sum of $200,000 must be subscribed, to pur chase the property and begin the work. "The projectors of the plan set about raising this sum, making the subscrip tion conditional upon the agreement of all the roads to come in. At the end of more than a month's work less than half the desired sum has been subscribed. Those who have the undertaking in hand are not discouraged, although some of them are inclined to think that unless more interest is taken in the matter by the railroads themselves the plan will have to be abandoned for the present. The chief engineer of the Southern California, Mr. Perris, was .taken into the consultation as the representative of that line, and said that the plan "bristled with difficulties." It would carry the line back from the river and away from the warehouses, and would involve extensive changes in the yard arrangements. Officials of the Southern Pacific who have been consulted in the matter were inclined to think that it would be almost impossible for that road to go into the scheme. The proposed depot would not give sufficient yard room for the making up of trains, and would put the company to no small in convenience and expense in this regard. The chief difficulty, however, lies in the fact that the road is committed to the Wolfskill depot location for a term of years, and is interested in the surround ing property. A change would involve much greater expense than would ap pear on the surface. These are the discouraging features of the case, but they are balanced by a number of facts of an opposite sort. Be sides the two main lines there are the Los Angeles and Pacific, the Los Ange les, Pasadena and Olendale, the Re dondo Beach road and the Rapid Transit road. All of these are willing to go into the union depot, and most of them could without much difficulty secure the right-of-way. The Redondo Beach line, which at the present time has its ter minal at Agricultural park, would make a detour around the city and use the union depot for its main station. The other roads have terminals near to the proposed new union depot. It goes without saying that a railroad cannot change the location of its depot without great expense and difficulties of all kinds. It is not to be expected that the main roads will go into the scheme until they have made a thorough can vass of its advantages and its drawbacks. If the projectors of this plan meet with success it will not be until every feature of the plan has been carefully discussed. The mere fact that the roads do not at first seem inclined to go into the scheme does not by any means insure its failure. It is considered tolerably certain that if the Southern Pacific road agrees to come in the Santa Fe will be compelled to do likewise. The reverse of this is not necessarily true, owing to the location of the two roads. It would be possible to get all the other roads into the depot and find the Southern Pacific still out of the fold, for the reason that the present Commercial-street depot would be only a short distance from the proposed location. The men who have the matter in hand are not at all discouraged. They believe that both the main roads are desirous of coming into a union depot, and that although they may hold back for a time they will ultimately come around. General Hallway Xewa. President Huntington has returned from Oregon to San Francisco. He will visit this city on the Oth of May. The San Francisco Examiner's special arrived in this city last evening. It will remain several days at the Southern Pacific depot. Thursday evening at 7:30 as the Southern California train from San Diego was running between El Toro and Modjeska some scoundrel shot at the cars. The bullet, evidently from a revolver, went through the window of one of the coaches and narrowly missed striking a passenger. Nothing is known as to the perpetrator of the outrage. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. An Exhibit at the Dunkard Conven tion—The Permanent Exhibit. Yesterday Mr. McDonald, the secre tary of the Dunkard Immigration Society, visited the Chamber of Commerce in company with Williamson Dunn, of the Southern California railroad. The grand convention of Dunkards takes place at Warrensburg, Missouri, on the 29th of May. Mr. McDonald, who has been actively engaged in bringing Dun kard colonies to this State, proposes to get up a special exhibit of California products to show at their convention at THE LOS ANGELES SIERALD: SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 3, 1890. Warrensburg to assist in the work of attracting settlers. Yesterday was the day for making shipments "to California on Wheels. A case of oranges and lemons donated by B. B. Briggs, a box of roses from Thos. Samuel Spears, and some vegetable* from Ludwig & Wagner, formed the bulk of what was"sent. The donations to the chamber's per manent exhibit yesterday were as fol lows: Sheaf barley from the Lanker shim ranch at San' Fernando; cherries from F. O. Cass, Jefferson street; straw berries from H. Robinson and Mr. Hug gins of Gardena ; frogs for the fountain from Jerry Hlich ; oats, corn and oranges from J. W. Hudson of Puente; corn from Albert Rowland and an olive branch from one of the Mission trees on the Rowland ranch. Flowers were donated by Mrs. Bennett, Mrs. S. A. Rendall anil Miss F. Mc- Creery. Paper flowers were given by Mrs. Anderson, Mrs. C. M. Wells, Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Cilcotte. THE IROQUOIS. A New Club to be Installed in San Diego Tonight. This morning at 8:15 a deputation of sachems from San Francisco and Los Angeles, and a number of braves from the latter city, will depart for San Diego in a special train to install there tonight a wigwam of the Iroquois nation. This will be the first installation of an Iro quois wigwam in Southern California, outside of this city, and it is, in fact, the first step to spread the organization widely over the southern portion of the State. The official district apportioned to Los Angeles, at the late convention of the State League of Iroquois Clubs, con sists of Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Bernardino, Orange and San Diego counties, and the establishment of Iro quois clubs in those counties will be at tended to with dispatch. The prelimin ary work laid out by the State Conven tion of Iroquois Clubs will take place to night at San Diego. Every one of the counties assigned to the Los Angeles Ir oquois district will be looked after promptly. Arrangements to that end are now being perfected. The Iroquois Club of this city is en titled to great credit for its efforts in behalf of the Democratic party in the coming campaign; and a fact which should be borne in mind is that among its members it contains such distin guished citizens as the chairman of the last National Democratic Convention, which selected as the representative Democrat of America Grover Cleveland, and the chairman of the last State Democratic Convention. The following members of the Iroquois Club will participate in the installation at San Diego, under the supervision of Installing Officer Max Popper, of San Francisco: J. J. Ayers, A. F. Mackav, A. McNally, H. J. A." Stuhr, H. W. Pat ton, C. R. Redick, H. A. Stevens, J. P. Moran, D. A. Moriartv, W. A. Rvan, M. 0. Morris. J. T. Gaffey, R. F. del Valle, J. H. Melville, J. C. "Cunningham, Sid. Lacey, Fred Linde, M. J. Nolan, Thomas McCarthy, J. Mullally, A. Schwamm, William Nordholt, William Crawford, R. Bilderrain, Dr. M. M. Kannon. A BROKEN LEG. The Accident That Befell Mr. W. G. Taylor. Early yesterday morning Will G. Tay lor, of the Times local staff, met with a serious accident, which will probably confine him to his room for several weeks. Mr. Taylor's residence being out on Pico Heights, and there being no other means of transit at the hour when his duties are completed, he has been in the habit of riding a broncho to and from the office. At 2 :15 o'clock yester day morning he started out as usual, going down Broadway at a hand-gallop. Seeing Officer Hawthorne standing at the corner of Fourth street, he reined in his pony to speak to him, and on start ing off again, the animal stepped upon a piece of banana peel and fell heavily on its left side." Mr. Taylor "was unable to take his feet from the stirrups, so sudden was the fall, and the result was that the whole weight of the animal's body bore upon the rider's left leg. The pony quickly regained its feet and at a word from its rider stood still; but when Mr. Taylor endeavored to follow its example* he found that he was unable to use his leg, and with the assistance of the policeman, who came up to see whether or not he was hurt, lie limped over to the livery stable near by. The patrol wagon was telephoned for and in it Mr. Taylor was conveyed to the police station for med ical treatment. Dr. Morrison was sum moned and on examination pronounced the injury to consist of a compound frac ture, the leg being broken just above the ankle. The limb was speedily set and the injured man was conveyed home in a carriage, and was resting compara tively easy yesterday afternoon. CHARGED WITH BURGLARY. A Number of Chinese Articles Found in a Yard. In the Township Court yesterday Mary and Henry J. Cannehan appeared before Justice Savage for arraignment upon the charge of burglary. They were arrested on complaint of Len Lan, one of the pro prietors of the Chinese theater. He al leges that at 1 o'clock, on May Ist, the theater was broken into and $100 in coin and $489 worth of costumes stolen there from. Among the articles carried off were eleven Chinese dresses, a pillow case box, an actor's crown, a gold watch, a necklace, an opium outfit complete, a number of Chinese pipes, and several other articles of more or less value. The pillow-case box was found in the yard in the rear of a house on Alameda street, which was occupied by the Cannehan woman, and it was this fact whicli led to her arrest. Both the Cannebans, however, profess entire ignorance of the affair, and claim that the box must have been placed in their yard to throw the officers off the scent. A Chinaman named Len Yueng was also arrested yes terday on suspicion of being concerned in the burglary. A Writ of Habeas Corpus. A writ of habeas corpus was issued from Judge McKinley's court yesterday, authorizing the Sheriff to bring before his honor Thomas A. Brooks, the young man who took a prominent part in the child wedding which took place a short time ago. The writ is made returnable on the 12th instant. Patronize Home Industry.

The City Officers Think the Stand Should be Removed. The Cigar Dealers Object to the Council Allowing a Stand in the Lobby of the New City Hall. One of the principal topics discussed on the streets yesterday was the action of the Council in permitting a cigar stand to block the entrance to the new city hall. The sentiments expressed were not very complementary to the Council; in fact not a few thought there was a job in it of some kind, though just where it came in no one could state. Nearly every citizen interviewed was decidedly opposed to having such an obstruction In the handsome entrance to the city hall, and the opinion was that if one man was allowed there others should be given the same privilege. Some of the members of the Coun cil are also opposed to its location there, but it is stated that there are six councilmen who will vote to keep it there, just because the general public, to which the building belongs, does not approve of it. Councilman Summerland said he had a man from the Eighth ward who also wanted priv ileges in the city hall, and if one man was to be allowed there he wanted his ward represented also. It is also stated that two other members of the Council oppose the cigar stand because they do not believe that it is the proper thing to turn the headquarters of the city gov ernment into a cigar stand. Most of the city officers decidedly ob jected to the stand. The City Engineer said he thought it was a shame that such a handsome building should be turned into a place where cigars and candy can be bought. City Treasurer Johnson agreed with Mr. Eaton, and was of the opinion that such a thing should not be permitted. City Auditor Lopez said that the stand should not have been permitted to be placed there. He thought that it was not the proper thing to turn the city hall entrance into a cigar stand. Street Superintendent Morford said that while he did not object to the looks of the stand, yet if any privilege were allowed others should be* granted. Mayor's Clerk Robinson thought it was most objectionable and should never have been allowed. Mayor Hazard did not care to say much on the subject, but he thought it was unjust to the cigar and candy mer chants in the city that the stand should be allowed there without rent. Several members of the Board of Edu cation were also seen, and they objected decidedly to the cigar stand there. They did not think it was the proper thing for the lady teachers to be forced to pass a cigar stand on their way to the various meetings held in the rooms of the board. City Tax Collector Thompson was out of town, but the deputies in his office were of the opinion that the stand should not he allowed to stay there. The deputies and clerks of all of the offices mentioned agreed with the heads of the departments, and it was stated that a sort of boycott would be arranged. Some of the members of the Fire Com mission agree with the other city officers and the members of the Library Board object to the cigar stand on the"ground that it is not good policy to force child dren and ladies to pass such a place. Nobody waa found in the city hall or on the street who thought the stand was a propel thing except those interested in having it remain there. The proprietors of down-town cigar stands are considerably worked up over the matter' and several of tiiem ex pressed themselves very strongly in denunciation of the action of the Coun cil in permitting the cigar stand to be established in the lobby of the city hall, to a reporter yesterday. M. L. Polaski, 113 South Spring street, said: "It is a gross imposition. The lobby of the city hall is not a proper place for a cigar stand." W. H. MeUill: "It is unfair to allow anyone to establish a cigar stand in any public building rent free; and in any event the lobby of the city hall is not a fit place for one, as ladies are constantly passing through it on their way to and from the library and other offices." John YV. Young, who has two stands, one at the Hollenbeck and another in the Bryson-Bonebrake building: "It is an imposition. We have to pay very high rates in this part of the city, and it is not fair to us to allow astand inthe city hall rent-free. If the Council had advertised for one, most of us would have put in bids." Several others who were seen by the reporter reiterated the same sentiments, all agreeing that it was "an imposition." It was asgertained that the only money received by the city from the cigar stand is the license, which amounts to $1 per month. This immense sum was paid in yesterday. Mr. Sutherland Hutton, of the Board of Park Commissioners: "Had it been permitted for the benefit of some char itable institution, I should have had no objection ; but under the circumstances I consider it an outrage." A communication signed Wm. Stacy was received at this office yesterday. A portion of its contents read as follows : "No lady will now visit the city hall. It has too much the appearance of the en trance to a saloon, and I shall not permit my wife to go there, even to pay her taxes. The place looks too disreputable. The next thing this wonderful Council will do is to rent the basement for a dance hall. Perhaps this is what the virtuous members want. They certainly will not want their wives to be seen en tering a building that looks at its en trance like a saloon." "YELLOW CORN." Is That the Matter With the Cigar Stand in the City Hall? Editors Herald—Your remarks con cerning the impropriety of renting the city hall for a cigar shop, meets the heartiest approbation of the citizens. But what more could be expected from a City Council who assume that they are the owners in fee simple of Los An geles, (the citizens being only their vas- Bals), and whose political platform is "Chickens will not lay eggs unless fed on 'yellow corn.'" The interesting problem to be solved now is, who got the "yellow corn" this deal? Let the cigar stand be called the "Yel low Corn Cigar Stand." Councilmen who can work so hard to give a bank ring the use of the public money and thus deprive the city of the benefit of the interest, virtually stealing $25,000 per annum, need not be expected to be scrupulous about th;- renting of a cigar stand.

Henry Kappeler and his wife, Clara, a thrifty German couple, are not only very lucky people, but they are as wise as they aro fortunate-. Tney have boen in this city for about a venrand a half j nnd have worked most Industriously, Kappeler as n tailor and his wife as his chief assistant. They now reside in the basement of Natomn street, between Sixth and Seventh. 1 In the drawing of the Louisiana State Lottery Company of February last, the Kappeler family funds were enriched to the amount of 115.000 Iby their investment of $1 in the purchase of a ; coupon. Yesterday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Kappeler were seen by a Call reporter nnd questioned | about their lucky venture. They are quite ] young- and were rather averse to discuss the 1 matter al tirst. Finally Mr. Kappeler, speaking for himself and partner, said: "Yes, we were fortunate to win a *15,000 prize in the Louisiana State Lottery, and we have got our money safely iln bank. For the past seven years we have bought a ticket every month. We did so even when we were Kast. We never drew anything before, though in the last January drawing we thought we had won £5.000, but it was a mis take through an error in a published newspaper list. No, our luck has not rattled us. We have not slant any of the money foolishly. We ■topped working for a few days, but will com mence again soon. At present we are looking for a suitable piece of property to invest the money in, so that we will have something to fall back on in our old age or sickuess. Besides ' we have three young children, and we want to j leave something for them when they grow up In the future wo shall continue to buy a lottery ticket every month and keep on trying our luck."— Han Francisco (Cal.)
