NEW GARBAGE CONTRACT
Tbe Sewer Committee Will
Recommend One Today
THE MAPfeE AVENUE SEWER
Yesterday With tbe Board of Fire
Commissioners
Tklj City nnd County Responsible for the
Recent Non-Payment ol Salaries
to tbe Supreme Justices
Tbe sewer committee will today consider
the tenders for the caring for garbage for a
term of three years, opened by the council
two weeks ago. Tbe bid of J. 11. Franklin,
which is the lowest offered, will probably
be recommended to the council for accept
ance. The Dixon crematory will be recom
mended as the means for disposing of tbe
refuse.
The sewer committee will today consider
the remonstrance against the assessment
map in the Maple avenue sewer district
made by Louis Gottschalk. The most
serious statement made in tbe protest
states that part of said contract, which
prescribes the time in which said sewer
was to be completed has been erased, and
another time has been inserted, and that
■ucb erasure and alteration appears in the
original contract, as well as in the record
thereof.
"That in the original the time fixed for
the completion was evidently 200 days,
while now and since tho alteration thereof
it reads 250 days, and that this change is
material because the contract was not
completed within 200 days, nor was any
extension of time granted within said
period.
"That the contract is dated September
22,1894; that the contractor was to begin
work in fifteen days and was to complete
it within 200 days; that the first extension
of time given by the city council to the
contractor was on June 10, 1805, by a
resolution; that at tbat time the 215 days
had elapsed, and said extension was null
•nd void, and that therefore the contract
had expired, which violated it and rendered
void any assessment thereunder/
Maplo avenue sewer district is one of the
biggest pieces of sewer work in the city.
Thirty thousand three hundred and forty
two feet were laid at an expense of $48,
--016.65. Tiie street superintendent issued
his assessment January 21, 1896, and
since then about 30 per cent of the prop
erty owners in the district have paid their
assessment. The contractor was P. M.
Darcy. i
The original contract which is in tbe
street superintendent's office was approved
September 22, 1804, while D.A.Watson
was superintendent of streets. The eras
ures to which Mr. Gottschalk calls atten
tion in his appeal are very plain. Tbey
appear not only in the original contract,
but also in the book of the street superin
tendent's office into which the contract has
been copied.
THE HI! HAS AN INTEREST
The fact that the justices of the supreme
court of tbe state have not been paid a cent
of salary since < Ictober last is due in a
large measure to litigation which is upon
appeal before tho higher tribunal from this
county.
The trouble lies in tbat provision of the
constitution which provides that the just
ices of the supreme court shall draw no pay
as long as a case submitted remains unde
cided for ninety days.
Sometimes the court evades the constitu
tional provision by ordering a case to be re
submitted, but there are live cases, heard
in bank, which are still undecided, and no
resubmission has ever been ordered.
There are eight of these delayed cases, of
which the three of local interest are the
case which is to determine the validity of
the refunding bonds voted last year; the
ease of Hellman against Shelters, which is
to determine tbe validity of the street im
provement bonds, and the case in which
County Assessor Theodore Summerland
seeks to compel the payment of certain
large tax commissions, to which County
Auditor Bicknell declares he is not en
titled.
The other cases pending are: Estate of
Burdick vs. Burdick, No. 15,689, submitted
August 7th; Southern Pacific Company vs.
C. Allen, No. 15.714, submitted August
7th; Burling vs. Newlands, No. 14,592,
submitted August 9th; l'hilbrook (sub
mitted for P.ankini vs. Newman, No. 15,
--857, submitted August 14th, and Ralston
vs. Bank of California, No, 15,070, sub
mitted August 19th.
A decision in each of these was due on
November 30tb, but nothing in the shape
of an opinion or an order in any one of them
has been tiled. So the last pay any of the
justices has drawn was for October, and
they cannot draw a cent until all of these
August cases have been decided.
The two city cases in the above list were
. submitted on August 5.
OBJECT TO SUNDAY WOSK
The following was yesterday filed with
the city clerk: The Methodist preachers'
meeting of thiscityhereby most respectfully
petition your honorable body to do what you
consistantly can to stop Sunday work on
our streets, sewers and other public works.
The grading of streets on this day has
in some instances, interfered with church
services and otherwise annoyed peaceable
and law-abiding citizens.
We therefore respectfully ask you to
pass an ordinance prohibiting all public
work on that day except in cases of neces
alty.
The above is signed by A. B. Morrison
as president and S. G. Blanchard as secre
tary of tbe association mentioned.
TWO SEPARATE KICKS
A. W. Fisher, the music man, lias filed
the following:
"When the sidewalk was laid on the east
eide of Flower street, between First and
Second streets, last summer, the property
line of 120 feet in the block was not cut'
back, the walk fronting tbis 120 feet being
laid up only to the embankment of said
1120-foot lot. This results in tbe walk be
ing constantly covered w itli the earth that
falls down from tlio lot. and it is impossi
ble for owners to keep the adjoining walks
clean. I have repeatedly requested the
atreet superintendent to attend to the mat
ter, but month after month rolls by and
we are given no relief, and I now bring it
to your attention, with the i equest that the
relief prayed for be granted.
"A year ago I found it necessary to make
a complaint against tiie Westlake park di
vision of the electric railway comp; ny for
cutting trenches across the street (F est
street is the one I refer to) after a rain
storm and leaving them there to the an
noyance of vehicles. Tiie same thing has
been done this winter and I respectfully re
quest your honorable body to see that the
practice is stopped.
"I refer to the matter direct to you be
cause on tbe former occasion the railway
company gave not the slightest at ention
to the protests of the street superintendent.
In connection with tbis matter I would
like to add that the condition of tbe street
between and adjoining the tracks of the
railroad from Hill street west is disgrace
ful."
FIRE COMMISSIONERS' MEETINO
The board of fire commissioners yester
day refused to rescind its action taken one
week ago, in which the contract for 1500
feet of cotton hose was awarded to the
Berton Woolen Hose and Rubber Co.
Chief Walter S. Moore reported that he
bad seen President ('line of the Los Ange
les Lighting company in reference to light
ing certain engine houses, and had been
tniortned that he would soon be able as
Highest of ail ia Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov't Report
furnish the house on Pico street with gas,
but that it would bf some time before pipea
were laid to the engine house ou the East
Side, as there wem not enouch consumers
there to warrant the expense that would
be incurred.
The chief presented a contract for sup
plying the house of Chemical company No.
5, on Central avenue, with gas. He was
directed to have it signed.
Petitions were referred aa follows: Full
iatn AY Son. to erect a blacksmith shop on
New High street; City Brick company, to
erect and maintain a fifty-horse power
steam boiler and engine at Mission road
and Magnolia avenue.
Rule No. '•> of the Sre department was
amended to read: "That tbe chief engi
neer, assistant chief engineer and electri
cian of the department are required to ob
tain the consent of at least three members
of the board of fire commissioners for leave
of absence from the city."
An amendment was made to rule No.
13, requiring that badge money deposited
with the chief engineer shall, with the ex
ception of $10 to meet emergencies, be
placed on deposit with a savings bank and
the interest accruing thereon shall go into
the relief fund of the department.
The time for action on the protest of
Llewellyn Iron works against their demand
for work on the boiler of engine LSo. 7 be
ing cut from $153 to $75, was deferred one
week.
Upon the recommendation of the chief a
protest against the blacksmith shoo on
San Pedro street, near Eighth street, was
ordered filed.
The following was adopted:
Resolved, That the board of fire com
missioners of Los Angeles does hereby ex
press approval of the appearance of the
men, horses and apparatus of the depart
ment in the semi-annual inspection held
February 122. 180b".
Resolved, That a copy of this resolution
be posted in the different houses of the de
partment.
THE BuTLDI&O RECORD
Permits were issued yesterday for new
buildings aggregating in value $3550, the
most important being to Louis Gottschalk
for a $1500 residence on Seventeenth
street, near Figueroa, and to T. J. Lock
hart for a $1400 dwelling on Rich street,
near Fourteenth.

The committee on law and legislation re
ported in the matter of resolutions on the
funding bill offered at the last meeting,
advising that the following resolutions be
passed:
Resolved, That the Chamber of Com
merce is earnestly opposed to the passage
of the bill now before congress
to refund the indebtedness of the
Central Pacific Railroad com
pany to the United States, and advo
cates the immediate foreclosure of the
mortgage held by the government to secure
such indebtedness.
Resolved further that the chamber
urges the representative bodies of otber
committees to take such steps as to them
may soem best to assist in defeating this
funding scheme so prejudicial to the com
mercial interests of California and unjust
to the people of tbe United titates.
Resolved further, that a copy of this
resolution, under the seal of the chamber,
be forthwith forwarded to tbe senators and
representatives of this state in congress.
several directors called attention to tbe
fact that there was considerable diversity
of opinion among the members of the
chamber with regard to tbis matter, and
it might be well to lay it over for one week
for further consideration. This action was
finally taken.
A communication was read from the
Dallas Commercial club asking for an ex
pression of sentiment from this chamber
of commerce in "favor'of their proposed
semi-centennial celebration. Tbe secre

people and ithas no connection with any
commercial bodies in this state and that
the managers bave never been in Cali

The following resolution was passed by
the board:
Whereas, Numerous inquiries have been
made to the Los Angeles chamber of com
merce witli regard to the alleged California
exposition about to take place in New York
City, at the Madison Square garden, be it
Resolved, That we beg to notify the pub

can learn, it is not participated in by any
other commercial organization in the state
of California, and is not in that sense rep
resentative of the state.
It was moved and carried tbat tbe secre
tary be instructed to tender the Democratic

A DEARTH OF BIG BUILDINGS
But a Goodly Number of Houses to

The Real Estate rtarket Fairly Active-Re
ports of Sales Consummated and I ni
pt ovements to Be flada
During tbe week closed yesterday build
ing operations, as represented by tbe per
mits isued from the office of the city su
perintendent of buildings, were confined
altogether to the building of homes, nearly
all of which are uf but moderate cost and
intended for the occupancy of the owners.
Forty permits were issued, the total es
timated cost of the proposed new buildings
being f32,39i>.
The most expensive dwelling in the list
is a two story double dwelling to be erected
for Mrs. Cordelia Mallard, on Ninth srreet.
between Moore and Golden, to cost $4000.
Other permits for houses costing $1000 or
more were as follows:
To Magdalena D. de Lubbert, two-story
dwelling on Third street, between Crocker
and Omar avenues, $1850.
E. C. Fisher, Twenty-fifth street, near
Central avenue, $1200.
H. O. Baldwiu, 124 West Thirty-first
street, $1200.
T. S. Ewing, Tenth street, near Blame,
$1175.
Mrs. M. J. Schilling, two-story residence
on Twenty-first street, between Main street
and Grand avenue, $2485.
T. J. Stratton, Florida, near Moore
street. $11)15.
M. Zuretti, two-story brick store and
dwelling combined, corner Macy and Gil
day streets, $120.
Ella A. .Tepson, Union avenue, between
Eighth and Ninth streets, $2250.
W. J. Scheerer A Co., Adams street, be
tween Central avenue and Naomi streets,
$1000.
Ritade Celis, Los Angeles street, between
Fourteenth and Pico streets, $1400.
Louis Gottschalk, Seventh street, be
tween Figueroa and Georgia Bell streets,
$1500.
T.J. Lockhart. corner Rich and Lock
hart streets, $1400.
The Builder and Contractor makes note
of the following prospective new buildings:
The trustees of the First Cumberland
Presbyterian church bave petitioned the
court, in Los Angeles, to be allowed to
raise $1600 by mortgage to build a new
church building.
J. W. Lefton proposes building a $70,000
brick block adjoining Fisher's opera house
and opposite the Hotel Brewster at San
Diego.
Charles Alexander, who was awarded the
contract for cremating the garbage, will
build a crematory on Ninth street, near the
Los Angeles river, to cost $10,000.
The week's operations indicate a steady
growth of population and a determination
to restrict building to the needs of the new
comers, or to those older residents whose
financial success warrants tbe erection of
new houses or the improvement of the
old. Though less in number than were
started during the tremendous activity of
the fall months, the list is considerably
larger than that for tbe corresponding
month last year.
AMONQ THE DEALERS
Condition ol ths rterket and Reports of
Sales nade
The real estate market is fairly active,
tbe demand for city residence property be
ing steady and strong, and tbe inquiry for
suburban and agricultural property increas
ing. The tolerably good prospects for a
dry season reduces tbe number of sales of
"dry" ranches, but ao far seems to have
had no effect in causing a reduction of
prices. On tbe other hand, the owner of
land whicb carries with it a food water
right finds the threat of dry weather good
cause for insisting on his full price or in
creasing it a little.
Demand generally is for improved or
partially improved tracts upon which tbe
purchaser can proceed at once to make a
living, but, as usual, tbe light rainfall has
given something of an impetus to tbe pro
moter of water development schemes, and
a number of trades are reported in various
stages of completion for the purchase of
large tracts to be subdivided for sale when
water shall bave been developed.

THE FIESTA COMMITTEE
The Canvats for Financial Support to
Close Next Month
A Way by Which Each Southern Calllornia
Town (lay Become Interested—Socitty
flen to Man Floats—frogresj
Ths Fiesta committee received yesterday
an additional subscription of .?r>o from the
Los Angeles Savings bank, making a total
donation from that ina'itution of .SICO.
Special efforts will be made during next
month to complete the canvass and to in
terview all who have failed to respond to
the request for financial support.
Had Fetch of the float committee vis
ited Ontario last week and urged the peo
ple of that thriving town to be represented
in the Fiesta by a handsome float. Tho
proposition was received with favor, and as
a result a committee was appointed to visit
Los Angeles. The committee arrived in
town yesterday and tho members were es
corted to the place where the floats ara
being constructed. They expressed their
admiration and satisfaction at tho artistic
designs of the floats, and from the remarks
made by them it is expected that Ontario
will be represented. The matter of Po
mona will be presented at tho masting of
the board of trade of Pomona next Mon
day evening.
It is the intention to invito the co-opora
tion of Uve or six of the leading cities of
Southern California, in order 10 show the
resources of this section to greater advan
tage in the parades. Each city will bo re
quested to send a tioat showing its particu
lar advantages in soil and products.
An effort has been made and has re
ceived hearty approval lo inaugurate a
number of Fiesta clubs, somewhat similar
in character to the Knights of Comus and
the Mystic Crewe, of St. Louis and New
Orleans. These clubs will bo largely comp
osed of young men of good standing in
the community, who will man the lloats
and assist in the opening ceremonies. The
identity of the participants will not be dis
closed, although they will be known to
each otber by secret sign or password.
Already a great many well-known society
men have expressed a desire to become
den tilled with the Fiesta in this manner.
The opening ceremonial will be replete
with novel and amusing features. The
committee having this work in charge has
carefully planned a program that is unique
and attractive,
In about 300 eastern papers appears this
week the second letter of a series on South
ern California and the Fiesta. The third
letter is now in preparation and will soon
follow in print.
The number of inquiries from every part
of the union continues, and from tho gen
eral tone of the letters the influx of visit
ors will be larger than any previous year.
The official guide and advance program
has just been received at the chamber of
commerce, and is being sent to those who
desire information regarding the Fiesta
and tbis section.
Retrenchment
The Merchants' association ie signalizing
its new administration by aggressive work.
Every one recognizes the absurdity of hav
ing two assessors and two tax collectors,
yet citizens have been suffering under that
grievance so long that they are almost re
signed to the extra cost entailed by having
two superfluous eifieers and the annoyance
of being assessed twice and paying taxes at
two different places. The subject will be
discussed on Friday evening at the Cham
ber of Commerce hall, under the auspices
of the Merchants; association, by Hon. T.
W. Brotherton, president of the Citizens'
bank, C. J. Griffith, organizer of the Citi
zens' league, and others. Business men
and taxpayers are invited to be present.
With the rlissions
A public meeting of the Landmarks club
for the preservation of the old missions
and other historic relics of Southern Cali
fornia will be held on Tuesday evening,
February 25th, at 8 oclock, in the Friday
Morning club rooms, 330% South Broad
way. A fine stereopticon exhibition of
viewß of the missions will be given by an
expert, and an explanatory paper will be
lead. Everyone interested in the preser
vation of the country's landmarks is in
vited. No admission will be charged.

A SUBURBAN SHOOTING
! Joe Morales Firej Two Shots Into Juan Ramon
at Santa Anita
A telephone message was received at the
sheriff's ufflco early yesterday morning
j from Deputy Wilson at San Gabriel. He
| told a livid tale of murder at Santa Anita
I by a i lesnerado who had entrenched him-
I self in a place of safety with an arsenal of
j weapons antl defied capture.
I Sheriff Hurr dispatched Deputies Gay,
Woodward and Barnliill to the scene of the
; shooting, aud it waa anticipated that there
i would be an exciting tight between the
; sheriff's representatives and the murderer
who had bid defiance to the law. The
mountain of exaggera ion dwindled down
into a innle-hill of fact when the deputies
relumed to town in the afternoon.
It appeared that on Tuesday night two
; Mexicans named Joe Morales and Juan
Kamon got into a drunken quarrel atSanta
I Anita, when the former drew his gun and
j shot his companion twice. The first bullet
] struck tho frontal bone over the eye and
: glanced off, malting a flesh wound, and
the second penetrated the groin, finding
! lodgment in the thigh. Morales fled so
| soon as the alarm was givsu and took
refuge in tbe Santa Anita canyon. Albeit
jhe is armed with a couple of pistols he is
j likely soon to be starved into submission,
; as tbe sheriff's deputies are on the lookout
j and descriptions of tbe fugitive have been
sent broadcast through all the outlying
' districts.
Juan Kamon, the wounded man, was
brought to town during the afternoon and
is being cared for at tho county hospital.
It is not thought that he will die, although
the wound in the groin is a dangerous one
j anil may| yet develop features that will
; threaten Uis life.
Both Morales and Kamon were engaged
in cutting timber, and previous to the
present trouble are said to have been fast
friends. Tne quarrel between them is
said to have resulted from a dispute as to
who should pay for a bottle of brandy.
