6 THE COUNCIL. A Number of Reports From City Officers. The Franchise for the Vernon Street Road. The Broadway Opening 1 Matter Again Postponed. Considerable Routine Business Transact ed—The City Hall (lets an En gineer—The Phillips' Case Transcript Matter. At the council meeting yesterday morning the city attorney presented a voluminous plumbing ordinance, con structed according to the state law on the subject. It was read and referred to it!,e board of health. The city tax and license committee re ported 114,578.50 collected in licenses thus far during the fiscal year; $5,571.50 «jllected during the month. The collector also reported receiving ■87 delinquent licenses to collect during July, valued at $175; 32 were collected «ts74; 55 were returned uncollected, valued at $101. The water overseer reported $2616.50 collected through Lis office during the month. H. C. Austin, city justice, reported $97.10 passing into his hands as fees •during the month. M. T. Owens, city justice, reported #34.50 passing into his hands during the month. The pound-keeper recommended the ■appointment of tne following deputies for dog catchers: J. E. Preston, John Lupez, John Meachein and D. Duke. To rip ort was filed. The city attorney presented an ordi nance creating the market on Los An geles street, but not excepting the busi ness from paying license, as, in his opinion, it would constitute such a dis crimination against the ' vegetable .peddlers as to be illegal. Further con ■sifleration of the matter was deferred. The city attorney further advised the filing of the petitions for the opening of Ward street, and the opening of Tenth street through the Bonnie Brae tract. The recommendations were adopted, as was also his request that the claims of C Zabn for damages to lots in the Mott tract be referred to the city engineer for investigation. The city attorney reported having in vestigated the Temple block matter, and found that the same really encroached upon both Main and Spring streets. He was therefore directed to proceed to re cover the city's property. C. M. Wells, Jesse Yarnell, Mr. Ma f;innis and H. C. Register appeared be ore the council and complained of the tiills as regards water. Mr. Bonsall said that the water mat ter was now in the hands of a special committee of the council, and they were negotiating with the bondholders to see what could be done about the purchase of the bonds. If they would cut down their price to about what they were worth, an arrangement could probably be had. He hoped the committee Would be ready to report at the next meeting. The board of public works' report on the petition of S. B. Lewis for paving Figue*oa street, between Pico and Washington streets, was laid over for one week on motion of Mr. Tufts. Mr. Vufts said the time htd come for put ting down only first-class streets in Los Angeles, and that he would be in favor of building no other kind. The Consolidated Electric Railway ■company was granted a franchise for their Vernon branch of road, the right I ■of way being over the following streets : Beginning on the westerly line of Upper Main street at Marchessault street, thence easterly to Los Angeles street, thence southerly to First street, thence southeasterly to SauPedrostreet, thence southeasterly to Second street, thence •easterly to Wolfskill avenue, thence ■•oiiMierly along Wolfskiil avenue and ■Central avenue to the southern bound ary line. The work is to be completed Within one year. Provision is made for school children getting half fare. Trans fer will be given to other lines of the company. The mayor returned without his sig nature an ordinance appointing an en gineer for the city hall at $100 per month. The ordinance provides a ser vice of the engineer from 9:30 in the morning till 8 o'cloak in the evening, •except Sunday, and allows him $100 per month. The mayor objects to the sal ary, saying that $100 should not be paid ■when fire engineers only get $85. The •ordinance was passed over the mayor's veto, only Major Bonsall voting to sus tain him. Mr. Innes, of the finance committee, cbjected to passing the demands of H. Q. Blaisdell, R. W. Bull and H. L. Hop kins, gang foremen in the street super intendent's office, for their salaries of ;>f58.50 each, on the ground that they bud defied the action of the council in ■reducing their salaries in not doing their ■work. They had been seen under shade •-trees smoking pipes. He also objected •-to the demand of J. H. Keller, employed to paint sign posts at a salary of $52 per month. The matter was referred back *to the finance committee. It was decided to appoint two sewer to inspect the work of Con tractor Register, now constructing one of the sewers. AFTERNOON SESSION. All were present when the clerk called the roll. The first business transacted was the zanjero committee's Teport of July 27th recommending the closing of a ditch used by private parties for irri gation purposes between the patent and charter boundaries. Mr. Ames, who held the water privilege, appeared be fore the council and argued against be ing deprived fit his privileges. His argu ments proved unavailing and the ditch was ordered closed on September 30th. The Broadway matter being the only other special order set for this time, the ordinance abandoning a 20-foot strip from Ninth to Tenth street and the en tire street from Tenth to Pico street was read by the clerk. After much discus «ion and the hearing of several property .owners on the matter, further consider ation was deferred for four weeks. On the approval of the finance com mittee a bill For printing was ordered next thing was the reading of an other of the mayor's voluminious veto messages. This time it waa the author ization of the city attorney to expend $500 in having a transcript on appeal ■in the Phillips case prepared that was On motion the vote by which the reg THE LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 4 1891. uisition was passed was reconsidered. Discussion followed and it was made a special order for today at 2 o'clock, at a meeting to be held for the purpose. Thn board of public works presented a supplementary report recommending the granting of the petition of Mrs. Goldsworthy for the.' abandonment of a certain alley. An ordinance for the abandonment of the alley was presented and passed, under suspension of the rules. Numerous requisitions were reported from the supply committee and al lowed. The city engineer presented plans and specifications for a bridge on .Temple road, and on motion the clerk was or dered to advertise for bids. His recom mendation, with plans and epecifica tions for a fill on Alhambra avenue, met similar treatment. An ordinance for the establishing of the grade on a por tion of First street, from the city en gineer, passed under suspension of rules. A motion by Mr. Nickel was passed, by which the clerk waß instructed not to charge a fee for filing affidavits with petitions to go before the board of equalization. He was also instructed to return the amounts already collected. On motion the city clerk wes in structed to notify the Santa Fe railroad company to strengthen the levee on the west bank of the river. An ordinance was passed authorizing the city tax and license collector to em ploy a number of assistants for the month of August.

On motion of Mr. Innes six questions relative to the Citizens' Water company and the possibility of the city's obtain ing possession of their works or compell ing the company to supply the districc with sufficient water, were submitted to the city attorney for answer next Mon day. A motion to have a supply of hose placed in an available position in the hill districts and to have several new fire hydrants placed was referred to the fire commissioners. Several important committee reports were read and commented upon. A demand for money in favor of Frick Brothers was approved. The contractor on the Downey avenue sewer was allowed more time to finish his work. The usual batch of petitions was read and referred. The council then adjourned to 2 o'clock today.

Some fail because of poor health, others want of luck, but the majority from deficient grit—want of nerve. They are nervous, irresolute, changeble, easily get the blues and "take the spirits down to keep the spirits np," thus wasting money, time, oppor tunity and nerve force. There is nothing like the Restorative Nervine, discovered by the great specialist, Dr. Miles, to cure all nervous diseases, as headache, the blues, nervous pros tration, sleeplessness, neuralgia, St. Vitus dance, fits, and hysteria.

CAPRICE'S /leainßaking U^^Powder: Used in Millions of Homes— 40 Years the Standard. JUDGE SMITH KICKS. HE CONTRADICTS CHIEF GLASS AND THE TIMES. All the Same the Wong Ark Bond is Not Explained—What the Judge and His Clerk State to be the Case. The publication, yesterday, of a long list of Chinese cases which were said to have been carried fom the police courts to the supeiior court on appeal, and then lost sight of, created a good deal of comment in court circles. Judge Smith, who is the only superior judge now hold ing court, was very indignant at the claim of Chief of Police Glass, that the superior courts were allowing Chinese cases to "hang fire," and said that the statement furnished the press by the chief was a mass of errors. Clerk Crane, of Judge Smith's court, went over his record for the purpose of refuting the claims of the police, and discovered that instead of forty-three "cases" pending, there were only seven teen individuals whose cases are now in the superior court undisposed of, and these are combined into three cases, the arrests of the defendants having been made in batches, and the cases against several of them combined into one. Mr. Crane says that this also applies to the remainder of the forty-three "cases" said to be hung up in the superior court, the real number of actions being a very small fraction of that figure. The cases against these seventeen in dividual Chinamen, which are now pending, are awaiting a decision of the supreme court in the case of the people vs. Wong Wang and Ah AVong. The same principle iB involved in each instance, and tbe caßes will all be de cided by the ruling of the upper court in the Wong Wang case. There is no record of many of the other cases which the police say have been taken to the superior court on ap peal. Notices of intention to appeal may have been filed in the justice's courts, but no papers have ever reached the higher tribunal and the cases are not to be found on the dockets of the superior court. Then again, many of the cases which the chief has said are still pending have been heard and dia posed of long ago. For instance, the cases against Ah Tan, Ah Wah, Ah Sue and Ah Sing, which the police say are still pending, came up on November 20th last. Ah Sue changed his plea to guilty and was fined $70, which he paid. The other three defendants were dis charged. Clerk Crane says that this is probably true of a great many of the other cases which the police claim to be "hungup;" if they kept track of the proceedings of the upper court they would be better informed of the disposi tion of the various matters in which they are interested. The Times recently made the state ment apropos of the Wong Ark bond matter, that Judge Smith refused to hear certain testimony which the dis triet*attorney wished to introduce. Judge Smith says that thiß statement is wholly false, and that he sat patiently through the entire bearing and listened to whatever testimony either side wished to introduce. All the same, it will be noticed by tbe impartial reader that no explanation is made of why a red-handed murderer like Wong Ark was turned loose on a $10,000 bail bond, based entirely on leased property, and which every sensi ble man knows is not worth tbe paper it, is written on. Worth Knowing:. Hall'« Journal of Health, in an article condemning the use of the drug am monia as an ingredient used in certain articles of food, and showing its baneful effects upon the human economy, refers to the influence of ammonia upon horses, causing blindness, etc., and says: "It is this that produces the pungent and sickening odor in urinals and neglected stables. It is, in its concen trated form, peculiarly destructive to the delicate tissues of the animal econ omy. The action of ammonia on the sensitive membranes of the eye is tbe most prominent cause of blindness in horses. Animals that are confined in close stables, where manure is allowed to accumulate in considerable quantity, are, in addition to blindness, peculiarly liable to diseases of tbe lungs and the kidneys, from the action of ammonia. The effect of this drug seems to be cumulative, and when taken into the stomach in small doses repeatedly it is easy to conceive that its action must be irritating to the coating of the stomach, and to those far more sensitive mem branes that line the passage of the urinary apparatus. REDONDO. Sunday evening a sacred concert was given at Redondo hotel, which was highly enjoyable. The orchestra rendered many fine selections. The programme of en tertainments for this week promises some interesting events. One or two musicales will be given, in which some of the best talent of Los Angeles will participate. A. W. Bonburgher, a prominent law yer of Pittsburg, Pa., has engaged rooms at the Redondo for his family, where they will remain during the month of August. Misses Jessie and Mayne Castleton, of Sacramento, are expected to arrive on Thursday to visit friends at the hotel. Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Sanmore, of Den ver, are registered at the Redondo. The steamer Corona departed for the north Sunday with a number of pas sengers and a quantity of freight, Cap tain Alexander in charge. The steauter Eureka, Captain Smith, arrived from San Francisco and departed for the south with passengers and ninety tons of merchandise. Among late arrivals at the Redondo are: Frank Carl, Miss Hill, W. D. Hal pin, N. J. Jones, J. E. Parish, Dr. L. A. Crandall, J. G. Fleisbmann, J. Kling enstein, Karl Triest, Geo.

Carlton, Nebraska. SANTA MONICA. There seems to be no let up to the many improvements shortly to be inau gurated in that productive section of sunland which lies between the city and the sea on the line of the Cahuenga foothills—the frostless belt, which will be the future home of many well to do and cultivated cit : zens. The move ments of the Southern Pacific at Santa Monica the leaders of the Hbbald have had full particulars of as the outlines of the scheme have progressed. The engineers are on the ground with a com plete grading outfit and work in that section will be commenced immediately. Besides the railroad and wharf building, which means untold wealth for that section as it also means great commer sial precedence for this city, tbe South ern Pacific, in the parlance of the day, mean to force the fighting and to push Southern California to the front as she has never been in the past. Besides the railroad improvements enumerated above, the large ranches will all be subdivided in the immediate neighborhood, and this immense tract will in the near future be studded with homes. A large stock company is in course of formation to develop; water in Coldwa ter cafion, where it is asserted by ex perts that between three and four thousand feet of water can be secured lor the use of the denizens. The old timers will bear us out that Henry Han cock demonstrated beyond the shadow of a doubt that there was an under ground river of great magnitude run ning from the Cahuenga foothills to the sea, and Ballona slough was filled by a seepage from the same. The site select ed for the reservoir is 600 feet above Los Angeles, and it will have ample storage capacity to supply Los Angeles as well as the immense territory adja cent, if necessity requires! D. F. Donegan and family are sum mering at tbe Arcadia, Santa Monica.

LETTER BACx A Trial for Murder. Editors Herald : In regard to the case just now on the tapis, of tbe Mexi can boy, Antonio Masias, who is accused of murdering aChinese vegetable vendor, it seems to me that a few small details of considerable importance have been overlooked by ourguasdiansof tbe peace. In the first place, no search was made for the empty cartridge case which the murderer, if he used: a breech-loading gun, would naturally extract and throw away soon after the-shooting, and which, if, found, would go far towards proving the boy's innocence, as the only gun he ever used was an old muzzle-loader. Again, supposing tbe murderer had used a muzzle-loader, some of the shot pellets found in the Chinaman's head should have been kept and compared with the Bhot in the accused's pouch. This would have been another strong point of evi dence, as there are many different sizes of shot, and nearly every one uses a dif ferent size- About the only evidence against the boy is the fact that some Chinese friends of the murdered man claim that the purse and knife found on the accused are those of the dead Celestial. Now all previous experience goes to show that the sworn statement of a China man is more liable to be a first-class lie than anything else, and in this case the Chinamen will swear to anything they think will cause the conviction of any one, no matter who, so long as a man other than a Chiuaman, is punished for the death of their countryman. It behooves the court to profit by past experience and be very slow about ac cepting the testimony of a heathen who knows not the nature of an oath and will swear to anything that is likely to aid his own infamous design.
