MERGED BANKS ARE READY First National Starts on Giant Scale, Los Angeles Moves Books and Currency For the last timo the officers and employes of the Los Angeles National bank transacted business yesterday in tho banking rooms at the corner of Sprlne: and First streets. On Monday morning the effects of the bank will nil have been removed to the Firt Na tional bank, on Second stret near Spring, and the entire force of the Los Angeles bank will report there for duty. Workmen were busy yesterday In putting upon the windows of the Los Angeles bank tile signs of the Equita ble Savings bank, which will open on the premises for business Monday morning. While the business of the Los Angeles- bank was conducted as usual yesterday, officers and clerks were ..busily employed in collecting and sorting papers ancl In gathering to gether the effects of the bank for re l inoval to the First National banking rooms. A large part of the books, papers and contents of the vaults of the Los Angeles bank has already been re moved from the premises, Everything that could bo removed without disturb ing the course of business has been gradually taken away. During the past week the employes have been engaged In putting the books in order and checking up, weighing and verifying the cash In the vaults. These affairs were all concluded before Saturday morning and all day Saturday was spent In getting things In shape to be handled by' the porters who removed the books and other portions of the bank's property. As the effects of the Southwestern National bank were all removed to the First National bank's premises Oct. 8, with the removal of the effects of the Los Angeles bank the consolida tion of the three banks will have been practically completed on Monday morn ins. In speaking of the personnel of the First National's force Cashier W. T. S. Hammond said yesterday: "The First National bank will In future have over 100 employes. We have taken Into our employ the com plete force of both the Los Angeles National and Southwestern National banks and have had to employ ten more men besides. "We shall have a nisht staff of book keepers working all night regularly In future. The complete set of Individual day ledgers will each night be proved and balanced by this separate night staff, which will make a separate check on the work. We have provided ac commodations for plght receiving and paying windows manned by sixteen tellers. "There will in addition be separate departments for pass books and state ments, a clearing house window, a new accounts window and a window for railroad, postofflce and United States business. "We shall have on our books Mon day morning 14,000 accounts averaging more than $1000 each. The business of consolidation was so carefully planned and the bookkeeping has been so carefully methodized that all this vast volume of business has been taken over without a ripple. When Monday morning comes, every man will know just where to take his place and will know Just what to do." UNION LEAGUE CLUB DINES Women Friends of Members Are Guests — Address on "True Citizenship" The monthly dinner given by the Union League club last night was one of the most successful affairs the club has ever had. It was. the first of their spreads to which women were invited nnd a special menue had been pre pared. Covers were . laid for about 200 jiersons. Rev. Bert Kstes Howard, who has recently returned from an extended trip abroad, was the speaker of the pvenlng, nnd had for his theme, "True Citizenship." While the club was oiglnally organ ized as a purely political one, the social feature has become the most prominent and this, it is .thought, nc. counts for its remarkable 'success. The membership has increased until the limit, 600, has almost been reached, nnd the entrance .fee will be advanced from $25 to $50 on the first of Novem ber. . Sunday evening dinners will be served to the members in the future. Manila Free From Cholera MANILA, Oct. 21.— For the past six days Manila has been free from chol era.. Fourteen cases and twelve deatha occurred in the provinces during the past twenty-four hours. ST. VINCENT'S DRAMATIC CLUB TO PRESENT "SHAUN AROON" Miss Estelle LeSage Miss Mamie Stanton BEGINS WAR ON PATENT MEDICINES BOARD OF HEALTH MEANS TO ENFORCE LAW Death Knell of "Fake" Preparations Is Sounded, Provided Statutes Give the Power to Proceed The death knell of "fake" patent medicines In Los Angeles will soon be sounded if the board of health finds that It has a free hand to deal with them. At the last meeting of the board the secretary was Instructed to confer with the- city attorney and report at the next meeting all the laws, state and city, governing the manufacture and sale of patent medicines. This step was taken at the instance of Dr. E. M. Pallette, member of the board, who believes that the time is now ripe for an active crusade against the fake nostrums that form a large part of the business of Los Angeles druggists. "A popular agitation has recently been begun against patent medicines for in late years they have degener ated into nothing but compounds of poisons and opiates and Instead of be ing a benefit are a positive detriment to the general health," said Dr. Pal lette yesterday. "There ls an old state law that stipulates that all patent med icines containing poisons or opiates shall have the formula printed on the label. This law is thirty years old, yet there Is hardly an instance in which It has been enforced. If there is any reason why this law cannot be en forced the board has a perfect right to ask for a city ordinance to this ef fect and if It ls necessary we will do so." . . Board Will Act As soon as the board knows Its po sition from a legal standpoint, that body will take active steps to see that the law ls Implicitly complied with. The city chemist will be Instructed to secure samples of air patent medi cines that are believed to violate the law and analyses for poisons and opi ates will be made. On the report of the city chemist warrants will bo sworn out and the cases fought through the courts. "I know there is a state law to this effect," said Dr. . Pallette, "for Just a short time ago . we received a communcatlon from the San Francis co board of health ' advising us that they had stopped the sale of a certain M ; 52 Years Ago UgBA I Hostetter's Stomach Bitters was first offered to th 4 ffluijis|lL 1 sick people of the world and from that time on has f been regarded as the standard remedy for all ailments ■dffljßaaSiaßgffigtojfo of the Stomach, Liver and Kidneys.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER aa, 1905. Miss Grace Ducasse patent medicine in San Francisco and asked us to follow their example. Con siderable litigation ensued and the at torney of this medicine company called on us and showed us that wp could not order the sale stopped, that all we could do was to make the medi cines comply with a state law, a copy of which he showed me, that the form ula must be on the bottle. He twitted us with the fact that It had never been enforced and our agitation Is the result of his calling our attention to it. The members of the board are of the opinion that ignorance of the na ture of the mixtures is largely respon sible for the popularity of patent med icines and «t hat when patients are In formed of their ingredients they will hesitate a long time ..before using them. . ' "There is scarcely a patent medicine on the market that does not contain some poison," said Dr. Garcelon, city physician. "If we begin a general cru sade of this nature even cough syrups, soothing syrups and similar medicines that are used will come under the head." Some proprietary medicines are bene ficial for certain things and in certain quantities, is a statement on which the board is agreed, but these should be used with the utmost caution and only with the prescription of a practicing physician. FIRE WAGON RUNS OVER BOY Glenn Smith, a delivery boy of Siege! Bros.' store, was hurled frbm his wheel and his left ear nearly severed frorri his head in a collision with Chief Llpps' fire wagon near Spring and First streets last evening.
