Miss Emily Lytton Loses Case Against
Race Track Association— Says
She Didn't Get Sufficient
Excitement
Charging fraud on the part of mes
sengers alleged to have been employed
by the I/w Angeles Jockey Club asso
ciation, Mlsh Kmily I^ytton, a Jjos An
geles musician, yesterday Instituted
suit ngalnst tho association for recov
ery of $320. Judge Outer heard the ease
In deportment six of tho superior court.
The trouble between Miss J.ytton.
who was formerly a popular actress on
the Orpheum circuit, and the race
track company occurred during the
latter part of the last racing sea
eon.
On the afternoon of March 20, ac
cording to the testimony given by Miss
I.ytton yesterday, she went to the
track and during the afternoon decided
1o place ft bet on one of the horses.
She had a tip that "Jean Handlon"
would walk: away like a good lizard
In tho last race of the day and she.
called one of the messengers named
Kdilin JkNn.mn.ru And handed him $320
to bet on the horse. At that time con
dition!) at the track were somewhat
different and the women spectator*
were as lively bettors as tho men. The
common way, however, for the mem
bers of tho fair sex to place bets was,
to send tha money to the betting ring
by messengers, who circulated among
the crowd for that purpose.
Miss Lytton alleges that McNamara
took the money, but did not give her
a ticket. Tho horse lost and the next
day Miss Lytton alleges she met Me-
Nftmara who told her of having bet
$100 of the money. He did not mention
the remaining $220 and Miss I^ytton,
charging that she had not received a
fair share of excitement In the race,
since sho really had only $100 up on
the horse, brought suit for the recovery
of the entire amount.
The case was hotly contested yester
day by representatives of the track.
As McNamara is In New Orleans, there
was very little evidence brought out
In his favor. Judge Oster, however,
decided that there was not sufficient
evidence and decided against the plain
tiff.
In the charge against the race track
company, Attorney Warner for the
plaintiff, failed to establish the con
nection between the track association
and the messengers, and the case was
dismissed on non-suit.
TELEPHONE COMPANY FIGHiS
Case Now on Trial in Federal Courts
Questions Right to Operate
Without Franchise
Tho question of whether a telephone
company has a right to erect poles and
maintain lines of telephone vires In
the streets of n, city In which It has
In- franchise to operate was violently
agitated ill tho United States circuit
court yesterday.
Robert fl. I.oucks, city attorney of
Pomona; sought to justify his course
of cutting down the poles of the Sun
set Telegraph and Telephone company
in Pomona and the attorneys for the
corporation tried to establish the con
trillion that he had no right to pro
cfed on any such course.
When L,oueks cut down the poles of
the Sunset company It was after he.
In his official capacity as attorney for
the city of Pomona, had made the
tilling that the company must take
out a franchise and pay two per cent,
of its gross earnings to the the city
of Pomona.
This the company refused to do and
openly defied the attorney, -whereupon
he, with a gang of men, went to work
and chopped down several hundred of
the poles of the corporaiton. Tie kept
up the work of demolition until he
nas restrained by an Injunction.
No action was taken by Judge Well
born yesterday and he reset the caso
for February 23.
MAYOR UPHOLDS FIRE CHIEF
Report That Insurance Rates Are to
Be Raised Proves Benefit for
One Councilman
Reports that Insurance rates were to
be raised all over the city on account
of Inefficiency In the tire department
vere circulated just in time to help
Councilman Percy Hammon secure his
fire engine house at the corner of
Mohawk find Sunset boulevard. The
J'roposltion for an engine house in that
vicinity hits been hanging lire for sev
eral months, but Councilman Hammon
embraced the opportunity yesterday
Bud the engine house was allowed.
Members of the. council were inclined
to discredit the statement that In
surance rates arc to be raised all over
the city. Several of them are In
surance agents and they stated that a
demand might be made for certain im
provements in the city's fire protec
tion.
Mayor McAleer nnd the members of
the tire commission who deposed Strohm
in favor of J.,ipq declare that the lire
department In all right. Humors of on
investigation of Chief Lips 1 methods
have been denied by the mayor and he
yesterday refuse,] to discuss the BUD-
Jtict any further.

GARIBALDI ESTATE MUST PAY
Junk Dealer Wins Suit Against Ex.
ecutors — Case of Long Stand
ing in Courts
Judgment for the plaintiff In the
sum of $1800 wag handed down yester
day by Judge Trask In department
four of the superior court In the suit
of IT. Fisher against C. Garibaldi.
The suit has been hanging fire In
the superior court for several months
and the costs In the case have grown
to a fair sized imitation of the amount
of the judgment.
Fisher, the plaintiff, is a junk dealer
and wrecker of Hast First street, and
according to his complaint he sold $2400
worth of lumber to Garibaldi more
than a year ago.
At that time Garibaldi was a wealthy
wine merchant with property near
Pasadena. The lumber purchased from
Fisher was used in building a number
of small store rooms. Several months
ago Garibaldi began to act queerly end
was tried on a charge of Insanity and
committed to Patton asylum.
Two weeks thereafter Fisher attempt
ed to collect his bill from Garibaldi's
guardian, but the guardian refused,
giving as an excuse that an exorbi
tant price had been charged for the
lumber and that Garibaldi was not In
his right mind when he bought it.
Fisher brought suit and proved that
the guardian had sold most of the
lumber, whereupon Judge Trask found
for the plaintiff.
CLAIMS HE WAS DEFRAUDED
Matthew Gage Files Suit to Recover
$2,250,000, Price of His Ranch
Property
In one of t!ie. most voluminous com
plaints ever filed with the clerk of the
United States circuit court Matthew

day against the Riverside Trust com
pany, the Northern Counties Invest
ment company and a number of well
known men of Riverside and Ran Ber
nardino for $2,250,000, which they al
lege Is due them.
It is alleged In the complaint that
Oafre was at one time sole owner of
a ranch 7000 acres in extent, lying
near Riverside. Gage wished to make
extensive Improvements on the prop
erty, and in order to do so, he formed
a stock company called the Riverside
Trust company to take over the prop
erty and to make the improvements.
In some manner during the forma
tion of the stock company <}age was
fraudulently excluded, according to the
complaint, and when the deal was
completed he found that he did not
have any interest In the ranch. Ac
cordingly, through his attorney, J. S.
Chapman, he brought suit to recover.
The pure milk used In Tlorllck's
Mailed Milk is obtained from healthy
iows and clean burns, under rigid In
spection. There is present no dirt or

13 SPEED MAD
AUTOISTS FINED
UNLUCKY NUMBER SUSTAINS
REPUTATION
Judge Chambers Fines One Driver
$100 and Warns Him That Jail
Sentence Will Be Imposed
Next Time
The stability of the proverbial mis
fortune connected with (lie number
"13" demonstrated itself In Judge
Chambers' court room yesterday,
when thirteen motorists who were ar
rested Sunday by "Motorcycle Patrol
men" Herchtold and Mojonler added
materially to the city's coffers.
Several of those who were arraigned
put up ideas that had a soothing effect
upon the wrath of the police judge and
they were let off with light fines, but
were warned not to repeat the offense.
Two of the accused pleaded not guilty
and their pases wen; set for hearing
December 21.
Xo efforts to punish the owners of
the machines are being made unless
the owners happen to be manipulat
ing the driving machinery at the time
of their arrest. In the cases yesterday
up before Judge Chambers It was ii
case of chauffeurs pay fines. The list
included: C. 11. Uny. fined $100: L. I)o
lan, $10: D. H. Hart, $10: C. H. King.
$l. r >: K. Rowland, case set for Decem
ber L'l; K. Snyder, $10; Walter Tuileff,
p: A. S. Allen, $10; 11. F. Stafford,
$10; AY. D. Feel. $10; \V. K. Swahn.
case set for December 21: F. Russell
$10, and M. Crocker, $25.
Day, who was lined $100, enme to
court prepared to nay $50, as the night
before he is said to have dreamed that
he was going to get the minimum fiiifc
for Ins second offense. "When Judge
Chambers announced that $100 would
appease the anger of the court Day
heaved a deep sigh and asked for per
mission to go out and hunt up the
other $50. which was granted him.
Day's troubles did not end there, but
when he triumphantly produced Ihe
balance of his line Judge Chambers
wheeled around in his chair and for
several minutes scored Day for his
speed ambitions.
"The next time you come In here
charged with violating the speed ordi
nance, Mr. Day. it will he an unlucky
day for you. In the future 1 shall not
only Impose a tine upon you. but shah
sentence you to a term of imprison
ment that you will have occasion to
remember," concluded Judge Cham
bers.
