All bids to furnish oil for Pasadena's streets were rejected by the council committee at a conference this morning attended by Mayor Waterhouse and City Engineer Allln. The reasons for this action, as advanced, are that sev eral of the bidders failed to enclose a certified check on Pasadena banks as a guaranty of faithful performance of contract, and that In other instances the oil did not come up to the teat. All bidders were given opportunity to be heard and several offered to make good the defects. Among those appearing before the committee -was Mrs. Emma A. Summers, known as the "oil queen." The oil submitted by C. E. Lapp, the lowest bidder, was reported by the city engineer to contain 14 per cent water. Mr. Lapp was present and agreed to lower that percentage to suit the coun cil.

SAN DIEGO, May B.— Shortly be fore noon today a shooting occurred in the red light region of this city, in which three persons received wounds that In all probability will cause three deaths. Those Involved are Rosa llos tetter, Claude Gilbert and W. F. Dow, a waiter. The woman and Dow came here together a month ago from Los Angelea. Gilbert, who is from Santa Monica, became Infatuated with the woman. Dow today entered the apartment where the ..couple were lodged and began firing a 38-callber revolver at Gilbert. The flrA bullet missed, but the Becond struck Gilbert lnthe spinal column.. The third shot hit the woman in the forehead, passing Into the, brain and lodging in the base of the skull. Another bullet entered the woman's breast. Dow then turned the weapon on himself, the bullet piercing his chest Just above the heart. Physicians were called and the three were taken to the county hospital. The woman is still alive, but is un conscious and in convulsions. Dow has not recovered consciousness.

A posse of ranchers from the El Cajon valley, ten miles east of here, this morning started for the neighbor hood of Foster, In the foot hills, where the Mexican who assaulted a Lake side young woman, is reported to have been seen last night. A sec ond posse in command of Constable Hubbell Is searching for the assail ant, whose flight for the Mexican boundary has been cut off and who is now headed for the mountains and desert. All of the back country is on the watch for the fugitive and his escape is improbable. Feeling among the ranchers is in tense, but it is not thought the Mexi can, when overtaken, will be harmed unless he shows fight. He is armed with a shotgun. The young woman was dragged from a buggy on a lone ly road and badly beaten and robbed, but her Injuries are not serious. Miscellaneous Notes At last evening's meeting of the Florence Heights Improvement club a resolution was passed opposing the installation of a new pumping plant in Mission valley.

JURY ACQUITS EDMUND BURKE SANTA BARBARAN NOT GUILTY OF EMBEZZLEMENT ANOTHER CHURCH BURGLARY Thieves, as In the Former Case, Find Nothing for Their Trouble — C. ■ W. Merritt Starts for Portland Special to The Hemld. SANTA BARBARA, May 6.— Tne Jury in the case of ex-Tax Col lector Edmund M, Burke, charged with embezzling nearly $2000, county funds, returned a verdict this afternoon ac quitting the defendant. Attorney Earl Rogers of Los Angeles and H. C. Booth of Santa Barbara, defended Burke. Merritt Goes to Portland Charles W. Merritt, the Santa Bar bara county representative to the Lewis and Clark Centennial exposition, left this evening for hla post of duty in Portland. Mr. Merritt reports that Santa Bar bara 1 will have the best exhibit of its history at the Portland fair. It will be' located in the California building in a largo space and will contain many features that most exhibits will not have. The lantern slides for illustrated talk on this county have been prepared and are now on the ground, besides a large quantity of chamber of commerce literature. Another Church Burglary The burglars who selected the rec tory of . the Episcopal church as the place for their best endeavors the other night were so greatly disap pointed in their search for worldly goods that they renewed their efforts last night, this time choosing the church at the corner of State and Sola streets as the scene of their labors. As on the previous night they forced a window. Then with a chisel or other sharp instrument they opened a closet door, but again they found nothing; at least nothing that has been missed. The church authorities are at a loss to know what the mysterious burglars are looking for. Nothing of value Is ever kept in the church edifice, at least of such a nature that a thief would want to carry it away. As the burglars have not been rewarded for their two nights' work, the members of the vestry and other officers of the church are expecting midnight calls at their residences and are preparing to post guards. Ed Clifford Captured Ed Clifford, the man who shot Ruth Kyle In a resort In this city Monday, has been located in San Bernardino and will be brought to this city imme diately. By throwing the police oft the track Clifford walked to Summerland and boarded a morning passenger train and was in Los Angeles before his descrip tion was forwarded. From that point he left for San Bernardino and was apprehended by J. C. Ralphs, sheriff of that county.

DOLLAR GAS FOR SAN BERNARDINO REDUCTION TO TAKE EFFECT NEXT OCTOBER KEEN COMPETITION PROBABLE Second Cut In Rates Attributed to En. trance In Field of Company Organized by Local Capitalists Special to Tne Herald. SAN BERNARDINO, May «.— A gas war Is In prospect and dollar gas Is In eight* Announcement was made to day: by the San Bernardino Gas and Electric company that on . October 1 of this year the price of gas In this city will be reduced to $1.25 per thousand cubic, feet, with a discount of 26 cents on the 1000 for cash payment, which makes the net price $1. , This is a direct result of a second gas company threatening to. invade the lo cal field. Local capitalists some months ago organized the Home Gas company and ; the installation of the plant Is now under way, it being, expected to be ready to commence the manufacture of gas early in the fall. A few weeks ago the old company made a reduction and the announcement of the coming second reduction now made will prac tically cut the price of gas In half in this city within less than a year. Census Marshal T. "W. Phillips has completed the school census for this year, and it shows a total of 8158 chil dren, which is a substantial Increase over the figures of last year. On a ratio of five population, to each pupil the population of San Bernardino at the present time is 16,780, which is a notable Increase over last year. The ratio of five in this city will hold good, accord ing to the observation of Marshal Phil lips, owing to the large number of single men employed In the Santa Fe shops here. San Bernardino Is growing rapidly as shown by the large number of new homes erected in the past year and the poatofflce receipts. Abduction Charge) Dismissed The charge of abduction against C. C. Woodruff has been dismissed by District Attorney Sprecher, there being no evidence to make good the claim. He was charged with abducting the young sister of his wife at Covlna, but an Investigation showed the girl to be visiting at the home of relatives in Po mona and quite able to take care of herself. A young man named Eldrldge, em ployed in the bridge and building de partment of the Santa Fe at Needles, has been arrested on a charge of for gery in connection with issuing passes from that office. He will probably be held to the superior court' for trial. Another employe of the same office by the same name was . some months ago mixed up In the stuffing of the pay rolls of the Santa Fe at Needles. A strange turn has been given the litigation between the land owners of this valley and the Riverside Trust company as to the pumping of per colating waters. Some months ago sev eral large suits were commenced by land owners of this valley against the Riverside companies, who are pumping vast quantities of water from this ar tesian belt and_ taking It to that place, to the detriment of this valley. The suits were based on the Katz-Walkln- Ehaw decision. ' Yesterday afternoon the Riverside Trust company filed twenty-flve deeds from land owners in this valley adja cent to the lands owned by the Rlver eide company, on which their pumping plants are located. The deeds give the Riverside company the right to pump water from the land of the grantor and transport it to foreign districts. It is understood that the twenty-flve deeds represent about $10,000 that has been distributed among the land owners. It Is also understood that other deeds are to soon be filed. It is believed here that the Riverside companies hope in this mariner to kill ofC the damage suits and at the same time preserve their water rights. Would.Be Murderer Arrested Chief of Police Ross of Santa Bar bara this afteriloon took Ed alias "Spot" Clifford td »hat city, where he may have to answer to the charge of murdering Rose Kyle of that city, as Clifford was captured at Colton by Deputy Sheriff Charles Ward of this city. He admitted his identity and ex pressed a desire to plead guilty to mur derous asßault, but will not be allowed to do so until the woman's condition is determined. The management of the Sunset Tele phone company in this city Is wonder ins what has become of a collector named C. A. Hickock whom they em ployed this week. The young man came to them well _ recommended, and after he had worked one day and col lected something like $80 he disap peared. The next day he telephoned from Los Angeles and asked If his ab sence occasioned surprise, but gave no explanation of his absence. He said he would return on' a certain train, but thus far has failed to materialize. Governor Pardee has refused to Issue extradition papers for John Webb, now under arrest at St. Louis on a charge of picking pockets and wanted in this city. The refusal is based on the ground that the state has no money available. ' Write for rates at Coronado Tent City. Be (ood to yourself and buy * I.as PaJinas ci«ar.
