IT MEANS CONSOLIDATION.
Mr. J. F. Crank Gives the News
Officially.
Ihe Electric Company Will Bny In
the Cable Road.
*■ Agreement Ha* Been Reached by All
the First Mortgage Bondholders
With the Electric Road
Officials.
Interest in the resignation of Re
ceiver J. F. Crank of the cable railroad
■vstem continued to increase yesterday
in business circles in the city. It was
with a view of ascertaining the exact
status of affairs that a Hebald reporter
found Mr. Crank yesterday afternoon in
the court room of department No, 4 of
the superior court, where argument in
the foreclosure suit against the road is
in progress.
In response to questions Mr. Crank
■aid that he now had no hesitancy in
talking about the matter, and he pro
ceeded to throw a great deal of light
upon the movements that are going on
in cable and electric road circles. Being
■Bked in regard to his resignation as re
ceiver, Mr. Crank said:
•'You may say that I took the receiv
ership of the road on motion of the
creditors to protect the property and
enable the corporation to adjust its lia
bilities. I accepted it upon the solici
tation of all parties, and at that time
six weeks was talked about as the
probable length of time I would be
obliged to serve; but it has now run
over two years.
"It became apparent to me recently
and to all concerped that all probability
of tbe resuscitation of tho corporation
by the Chicago parties was at an end,
and that it will not occur. That being
the case I bave no further duty to dis
charge toward the corporation. That is,
I feel that I have discharged my obliga
tions to the corporation. The attitude
of the Chicago people is the virtual
abandonment by them of the property.
Now I suppose you want to know about
tbe consolidation ?"
"Yes, sir. Has it come to an agree
ment?"
"Within the past 10 days the balance
of the holders of the cable railway first
mortgage bonds have entered Into an
agreement with the Consolidated Elec
iric Railway company, looking to the
ionsolidation of the properties. This
firings in the consent of all the first
mortgage bondholders."
"That depends upon this suit?"
"It will be brought about by tbe fore
closure of the first mortgage, which suit
is now pending before Judge Van Dyke.
There is no doubt about the foreclosure
jf tbe first mortgage; the contentions,
if any, will arise over the distribution of
the proceeds of the sale."
"The argument of the electric road
people has reference to the sale of the
property. I suppose?"
"The Electric Railway company peo
ple are under agreement to bid for tbe
property to the extent of their bond
holdings, which will undoubtedly make
a bid of $1,250,000. It is not expected
that there will be any other pur
chasers."
"What is your opinion as to the future
of the properties?"
"There is no question in my mind
that when all matters are adjusted the
properties will become one of the great
street railway properties of the country.
I wish to say that the appointment of
Mr. D. K. Irask as receiver in my place
was on motion of the attorney for the
trustees of the first mortgage bonds, but
was agreed to by all the parties in
interest. So far as known all the pro
ceedings have been harmonious and
agreeable, as far as tbe programme for
consolidation is concerned."
"What about the second mortgage
bondholders, Mr. Crank ?"
He replied, with a twinkle in his eye,
that that is what they are trying to
find out, and he then returned to the
court room, refraining from saying any
thing about what bis future connection
with the road might be after consolida
tion takes place.
THE SECOND MORTGAGE.
Quite a number of attorneys were
spoken to with reference to the second
mortgage, and they seem to incline to
the opinion that it would be held in
valid, although they did not denire to
be quoted pending the termination of
the case now on trial. They did not
seem to think it would be held a lien on
the property, Bavins; that in all proba
bility the conveyance by the cable
company to the Pacific Railway com
pany will be declared invalid on the
grounds that it is ultra vires of both cor
porations and the laws of their respec
tive states—lllinois and California.
In case this should be the decision it
would leave the second mortgage bond
holders completely out in the cold, and
they will lose a cool $2,000,000, or there
abouts.
It is a singular fact that all tbe second
mortgage bondholders are Chicago men,
while all the California people who are
the holders of bonds have those issued
under the first mortgage. Of course the
second mortgage bondholders had
planned, when the first deed was given
by the Pacific Railway company, to
ultimately take up the first mortgage,
and thus make themselves whole, but
after President C. B. Holmes went down
it made do many complications that the
time for such a consummation of their
desires was never reached.
The order for the appointment of Mr.
Trask as .receiver was made yesterday,
and he will take possession when Mr.
Crank has rendered his accounts, which,
it is expected, will take place about the
15th or 16th inst. It is understood that
Superintendent J. J. Akin will continue
in his position under Receiver Traßk,
and that the present efficient force will
be continued, certainly until the destiny
of the property is settled and a policy
adopted as to the consolidation and
workings of tbe Electric Railway com
pany.
It is belioved by attorneys that the
sale of the road will take place in about
six weeks, although no definite idea can
be given of that until the decision of
the court.
One gentleman who is in a position to
know remarked, in regard to the whole
fight, that has been going on so long,
that the result that is fast approaching
means the success of the electric rail
road iv their plans matured long ago of
occupying the territory of the cable
company and eventually securing pos
session of the whole field.

SET FREE.
Wm, St. Clair Ross and Walter Crowell
Out of Jail.
The confidence operators, Wm. St.
Clair Ross and Walter Crowell, alias
Hood, who have been in the city jail
several days were released yesterday.
Crowell was held on suspicion of being
connected with the various swindling
transactions of Toland, alias Mellequoid,
and Boss. But as no complaints were
entered against him, he could no longer
be held.
Chief of Police Crowley of San Fran
cisco telegraphed yesterday to Chief of
Police Glass that as the prosecuting
witness had left taat city, Ross could
not evidently be convicted, and that he
would not send for him. Consequently,
Ross was turned loose.
On being liberated, Chief Glass told
both that if they were found in the city
they would be arrested as vagrants.
They both walked down Second street
at a very rapid gait, almost on a run,
looking to tho right and left as if in fear
of an officer.
They evidently soon met a friend, for
they had been shaved and were seen
to enter a saloon and take a drink to
their own good luck. When placed in
jail they had nothing.

M. tJostello Receives Sim
ilar lujurleß.
A. Heaton, a brakeman on the South
ern Pacific railroad, met with a painful
and very serious accident at Saugus sta
tion at aa early hour yesterday morn
ing. Heaton, who waa breaking on a
freight train, was passing, or attempted
to pass over a car, when he was Btruck
by the pipe of a water tank and fell be
neath the cars.
Unable to extricate himself, his feet
were caught beneath the wheels of the
moving train and horribly crushed and
mangled.
The unfortunate man was placed upon
the Santa Barbara passenger train and
brought to this city. He was taken to
the Sisters' hospital, where his wounds
were attended to by Drs. Stewart and
Kannon.
Heaton Uvea in this city, and is fa
miliarly known as "Kid" Heaton.
It is not believed that amputation will
bo necessary, though the wounds are
very painful, and the patient is neces
sarily kept under the influence of
opiates.
ANOTHER ACCIDENT.
M. Costollo fell from a Southern Pa
cific work train yesterday afternoon on
Alameda street, between Third and

THAT ORDINANCE.
The Matter or Putting: Advertisements
on Electric Road Poles.
The following ordinance relative to de
facing poles on the streets passed the
city council on the 28th of last Novem
ber. Under this ordinance Sergeant
Jeffries arrested W. C. Dillingham a few
days ago for defacing an electric railway
pole by plastering around it a batch of
red-letter placards. Dillingham claimß
that he has authority frcm the company,
and the matter will be tested whether
the company baa the right to abrogate
the ordinance by farming out a privilege:
Section 1. It ia hereby declared un
lawful for any person to deface, mar or
change the appearance of any telegraph,
telephone, electric light pole, or the
pole of any electric street railway in the
city of Los Angelea, by posting or plac
ing any notice, paper, sign or advertise
ment thereon, or by painting, writing
upon or coloring the same, or in any
other way defacing or marring the same.
Sec. 2. Any person who shall violate
tho provisions of this ordinance Bhall be
deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and
upon conviction thereof shall be pun
ished by a fine not exceeding $50 or be
imprisoned in the city jail not exceed
ing 50 days, or by both fine and im
prisonment.

opinion, affirmed tbe judgment of the
justice court in the cages of Ah Fawn,

playing a fan tan game in Chinatown.
The counsel for the defendants appealed

counsel is not well founded, and affirms
the judgment.

Highest of all in Leavening Power Latest U. S. Gov't Report
EASTWARD FREIGHTS..
Will .the Frnlts of Southern California
Seek an Outlet via Seattle?
Cant. Alexander Griggs of Grand
Forks, N. D., is at tbe Hollenbeck, ac
companied by his wife. He was for
years engaged in steamboat business
between St. Louis and St. Paul, on the
upper Mississsppi, in connection with
James J. Hill, whose new railroad,
called the Great Northern, has just
reached tide water at Seattle. Captain
Griggs was very affable and, after re
marking that this was not hie first visit
to Los Angeles, said that he had come
here to thaw out.
"You are connected with tho recently
completed Great Northern railroad, I
believe, Captain," said the reporter.
"Not with the railway itself," replied
the captain, "but I have the manage
ment of two lines of river steamboats
which Mr. Hill and mvßelf are putting
into those northern waters to connect
with the road. One of these lines ia to
ply between on the Upper Columbia
between the mouth of the Wenalthie in
Yokina county, W. T., to the Okauagon
mines, and the other is to ply upon the
Kootenai river end lakes from our road
up into the British territories."
"Mr.Hill is quoted in his Seattle epeech
as having said that he was there for
business and did not propose to haul
any empty cars bßcs east. This is con
strued by our business men to mean
that if he cannot get freight at one rate
he will take it at another." said the re
porter. "Now how does that pioposi
tionlooktoyou?" "Well, Mr. Hill is
evidently in Seattle from business mo
tives rather than from eanitarv consider
ations," replied Captain Griggs. "You
see his road is built on the original
Northern Pacific survey. For the sake
of getting the travel of pleasure tourists
to Yellowstone Park, they went to work
and built a costly line with
grades twice as heavy as their
original survey. Mr. Hill comes along
last of ail and, profiting by these errors,
builds a line that, in a distance of 940
miles, haß no grade exceeding 54 feet to
the mile. This enables him to haul 18
loaded carß with the same motive power
that they require to haul eight. His
engines last longer, hia rails do not
wear out aa fast and his wages' account
is no greater. So there you have it in a
nutshell."
"What about his putting on a line of
coastwiee eteamers, Capt. Griggs?"
"I have iu4k heard Mr. Hill say a
word about it.Trat he is in businesa and
in it two stay. He will have to put on a
line of steamers of hie own to carry
freight to San Francißco from Seattle";
and if he should see fit to extend that
line on to San Pedro and Santa Monica
bay, it would not astonish me. Stranger
things have happened in this fair land
of ours."
And tbe reporter, bidding tbe captain
good night, came away wondering if San
Francisco would ever be a way port be
tween Seattle aud San Pedro.

who are followed by these wretches, who
use every endeavor to engage the atten
tion of innocent children.
Oq Friday evening about 7:30 o' clock
a Hebald reporter's attention was at
tracted by a voice, apparently that of
an infant, in the Bryeon block, who waa
remonstrating with two well known
loafers who live off the earnings of fallen
women. These loafers were following
herself and her girl companion, neither
of whom were over 15 years of age.
The young girls' remarks had not the
desired effect upon these ras
cals, for they followed close
upon the heels of the two
children, and near Fourth street again
attempted to stop them, at the same
time inviting them to a neighboring
saloon. This mode of procedure by
these well-dressed vagrants is getting to
be a common occurrence in this city.
The names of tbe wretches who at
tempted to lure away the young girls in
question are known to the reporter, as
well as that of one of the girta. These
names the energetic and alert police can
obtain at this office if they wish. In
San Franciaco the gang of ruffians who
formerly assembled in front of cigar
stands and hotels are now a thing of the
past. Why can't these reptiles in Los
Angeles be either put in the chain gang
or driven from the city? Tbe town is
full of them.
