VOL. XXXII, NO. 118. PLAN TO FIGHT LIGHTING TRUST PROMINENT BUSINESS MEN AT HEAD OF COMPANY MANY CITIZENS WANT STOCK First Capitalization Will Be Half a Million Dollars— Electrical Engl. neers Now Looking Over Situation >Los Angeles la to have an Independ ent electric lighting and power com pany which will enter Into active com petition with the lighting trust. It Is said the company will be capitalized at $600,000. . The movement had Its beginning at a meeting of the Broadway improve ment association last Tuesday night. At that time a committee reported on the lighting of the arc lights now be ing put along iJroa^way by saying that the electric lighting companies had broken faith In promising to furnish power, at a reasonable rate. Before the meeting was dismissed, $40,000 was raised to equip a plant for the pur pose. .By Wednesday night the sub scriptions, according to the statements ;Qf ' , the committee, amounted to over $100,000. 'Yesterday afternoon a meeting of prominent business men was held in 'the office of P. W. Blanchard and It was there decided to erect and equip > a plant which would have a far larger capacity than that which was first de .termtned upon. A committee of five was chosen to take the proposition in charge. To Take Stock :■; After the meeting, F. \V. Blanchard said: "The interest in the proposed in dependent company Is far more reach- Ing-than was at first thought possi ble, and at the meeting a number of letters were read from those who ex pressed themselves as ready to take stock' In the' new concern. The offers ran up as high as $5000. i .-"We will enlarge upon our first plans and; the company will be started j out with a' capitalization of , $500,000, which may be later increased to double that Bum. This, Is^entlrely a popular move '■tnent oh the part of thwa^- who are de . termined to have electric lights'af a reasonable figure. The interest taken in the proposition by Angelenos is un usual and lends encouragement to the scheme. As now planned, Ido not believe outslCe capital will be asked for or desired. The capital stock will be bold by popular subscription and held by Angelenos. We wlßh to see a com pany, formed In a way similar to that of the Homo Telephone company. "We now have two electrical engl ' neers looking over the ground and they will be ready to report within the next few days. ; "As soon as the company gets under • headway we are expecting a fight with the combine. They will then be willing to; cut down their rates. Before the combine was formed the Independent companies were glad to get business at four cents. They now ask more than double that sum, and In some Instances get as high as fourteen cents. This Increase of rates is what has caused a demand for and resulted in the forma tion of a new company." IMPORTED ENEMY OF THE ICODLIN MOTH FLOURISHING Bids Fair to Add Millions to Value of California's Apple Crops • By Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 26.-The par asite Imported into California for the extermination of the codlin moth is thriving In the ferry building in this city.

F. Groves, according tj the officers, la 'guilty of crimes almost innumerable. Deputy District Attorney Fleming, who is In charge of the prosecution of Groves, announces four swindles un earthed yesterday— two in Whlttler and two in Los Angeles. According to dispatches from Port land, Groves was indicted' there sev eral years ago foiv gigantic frauds. It is asserted a reward of $2000 was of fered for his arrest. - The reports which are being received from all parts of the country indicate that Groves has been engaged in the most extensive and systematic forged deed swindle ever unearthed, in the criminal history; of the country. Nowhere, say the officers, does a record In the criminal procedure of modern times divulge the equal of this case, and Groves' apparently stupen dous manipulations along illegitimate lines has become an unsolvable enigma to the most astute defenders, of r the law In California. -'• '■ : Many Complaints Made ,t Discoveries relating to. his. alleged "crooked" handling of dormant titles have not alone startled the off leers, of the law In this county and state, but reports are almost hourly received from far-away states. The reports from Cincinnati indicate that Groves resorted to unusual meth ods in that city, but no 'record is said to exist, .wherein' It Is 'shown he re sorted to • a systematic deed swindle there.. .■'/-•■■ The 'district attorney's office was In communication last; night with the au tborltletUat Bes.ttle»tW»*h.? ■fchtfrirHtrli* reported Grotes" operated extensively in an illegitimate practice.' ' Groves succeeded in getting a ficti tious suit through the state circuit court at Portland and in obtaining a decree upon It and it is said was in a fair way to make a fortune by fraud ulent means when the plot was discov ered: Qroves was indicted, but he succeeded In making his escape, it was thought at the time, to. Mexico. He went to Portland in the early '90s, when the boom was on In th^it city, and immediately hung out his "shingle" and advertised himself as an attorney. He was seen in court oc casionally in the trial of small cases. His wife was an accomplished wom an, according to Portland officers, and was regarded as one of the most popu lar women in Oregon. It is further alleged by Portland of ficers that soon after his advent Into Oregon, tho attorneys of the Portland bar began to distrust him. Minor Offenses Charged He was once or twice charged In the courts with minor offenses, but suc ceeded In making satisfactory explan ations and thus escaped serious con flict, with the 'officers of the law. The following dispatch from Port land tells of Groves*, life there: "In November, 1895, Isaac Meyer, an old resident of Portland filed a suit in the state circuit court to quiet title to a large amount of property In Port land and the vicinity which the com plaint said was owned by the plaintiff and others who were making adverse claims. "The defendants to the action Includ ed some thirty prominent citizens. Later a summons waa returned, signed 'G. C. Sears, sheriff, by C. B. Spencer, deputy, showing that all the defend ants named had been - personally served with notice of the suit. *\\ "On January 18, 1896, on motion of Atorney M. J. MacMahon, Jud£o Steams in the circuit court granted a decree in favor of Meyer, the decree .having been entered by default, none of the defendants having answered lo the will t . "At that timo mortgage were numerous where no defense was en tered and default decrees, sometimes a dozen In a single day. were no unusual occurrence. This case, therefore, was not noticed particularly and the decree was signed by the Judge of the Oregon court without his having made an ex amination of ltß contents. The abstract companies also passed the case without comment. / Fraud Discovered "Discovery of th» alleged fraud was made by Attorney U. S. G. Maniuum, who one day while making an examin ation of the county records concerning a piece of property mentioned In the decree entered by Judge Steams of the Oregon clrcut court wondered how it was that Meyer had necured ownership of co much real estate and why he had sued so many defendants, prominent men and women, to uulet title.

NKW ' YORK, Jon. 26.— Clearing weather which followed the great storm of yesterday brought New York one of. the coldest days It has experi enced In many years. During the early hours of the morn- Ing the mercury reached the zero mark In the weather bureau's official ther mometer, and at 8 o'clock this morning It stood at two degrees above. Terrible suffering Is reported-among the residents of tonic of the poorer quarters of the city, where thousnnds were without sufficient heat, clothing or food. Charitable Institutions where free lodging Is given were packed to their capacity during the night. The subway and the elevated lines were running today and In very good condition, but surface lines were prac tically unable to operate their cars. Efforts were made throughout the night to clear the tracks, but the light snow drifted back on the tracks as fast as it was cleared away. . Eight Deaths Reported The mercury clung closely to the zero mark during the forenoon, rising at a rate of hardly one degree per hour. While nothing like full reports from all sections of the city. had been received, It was known that at least eight deaths had' resulted directly from the l ab normal weather. Some of these were persons who fell on the streets'...be numbed by the cold and exhausted. One of the problems which confronted New Yorkers today was the food and fuel supply. . Already there is practical ly a famine in milk.

The Southwestern expreps, Cleveland cxpresfc, Adirondack express, Twen tieth Century limited and tho Chicago express, all due to arrive this morning, were reported to be from three to four hours late. Funerals have been suspended nil over the city and the conditions at the cemeteries are such that, no funeral can tuke pluce for several days. The end of the storm permitted the blockade of shipping to lift and the steamers which had been held up out side the harbor came Into port. Among them were tho transatlantic liners Calabria, Menoniln«>, nermanla and .Kotterdum, imd the Colon steamer Alllanca. Ail the vessels were covered with !cfi and snow. The rigging, rails, boats and the decks were coated heavily. Although tlw* day wns bitter fold 15, 00(1 men were sent out to remove the ■now from the loading thoroughfares.

Owing to the dtftlculty in reaching down-town offices, but Uttle business was transacted during the day, nnd places of amusement were scantily attended tonight. The firemen of New York suffered severely from the effects of the storm. They responded to 29 alarms and by the order of the commissioner were de nied their usual time off duty.
