MAYOR CLASHES
WITH COUNCIL
I SANTA BARBARA OFFICIALS AT
SWORD POINTS
Trouble Cornea Over Location of City
Dumping Ground and the Citi
zen* Are Ready for.
Legal Battle
Special to The Herald.
SANTA BARBARA, March 24.— The
breach between tho mayor and the city
I council, which haa existed ever alnce
Mayor Wood's efforts to have the coun
meetlngs held In tho afternoon wero
turned down Is undoubtedly widening,
and will probably come to a decided
Issue within a few weeks when the
city attorney will be asked by the
council to decide who Is to have the
right to run the city government, tho
mayor or the city council.
At the present time the situation Is
strained, to say the least, and the police
department la up against a unique
proposition.
The present deadlock has occurred
because of faction in condemning the
city dumping ground on San Andreas
street. For several years past the city
haa been without a satisfactory dump
ing ground and neighboring property
owners having protested bo vigorously
from time to time that one dumping
ground after another has been aban
doned.
Soon after Mayor Wood came Into
office the matter came up for consider
ation and a portion of San Andreas
street, between Figueroa and Anapamu
streets, which is considerably below
grade, was decided on as a good place
to bave ashes, tin cans, papers and
other refuse dumped.
This location met with the approval
of the mayor, and the chief of police
was instructed to allow certain kinds
< of rubbish to be dumped there.
Place Becomes Offensive
It Is not practicable to keep a police
officer stationed continuously at the
dumping ground to see that no ob
jectionable refuse Is thrown in, and the
.usual complaint that the place had be
come offensive to neighboring prop
erty owners and was therefore a pub
lic nuisance was made to the council.
At the last meeting the council con
sidered the situation, and after hear-
I Ing the facts in the case decided that
the dumping ground was a nuisance
and unanimously passed a resolution
discontinuing San Andreas street as a
public dumping ground and instructing
j the chief of police to act accordingly.
Friday morning last, the day follow
ing the council meeting, at which Mr.
Wood was not present, the mayor in
structed Chief Ross to disregard the
action of the council and allow dump-
Ing on San Andreas street as formerly.
Chief Ross is in a queer position. The
. council says no and the mayor says
yes, and each order Is equally positive.
A few days ago a man who had a load
. of odds and ends which he wished to
' dispose of asked the chief if he might
..dump it on San Andreas street. Chief
. Ross didn't like to commit himself,
I and so informed the applicant for in
formation Just the way matters stood,
■ telling him to judge for himself.
Put Question to City Attorney
' Last night the question, "Has the
mayor the right to give instructions to
> the police department directly contrary
to those of the city council?" was put
to City Attorney Booth.
"That is a question which I cannot
answer offhand," said Mr. Booth. "The
: situation Is somewhat unusual in
municipal affairs and I do not care to
give a discussion until the matter is
referred to me officially."
Members of the council were not so
conservative in their statements.
"This situation has got to come to a
bead soon," said one of the councilmen
last night, "and we are going to sub
mit the matter to the city attorney at
the next meeting of the council. It has
come to be a question now as to who
Is to run the city — the city government
. or merely one member of it
"Mayor Wood's order regarding the
' San Andreas street dumping ground is
directly in the face of the unanimous
resolution of the council which declared
the place to be a public nuisance, on

DEADLOCK 18 STILL ON
Mayor and Councilmen Refuse to
Budge an Inch
Spoclal to The Herald.
SANTA BARBARA, March 24.— There
Is nothing new in the mayor-council
deadlock tonight.
Each faction still clings to Its opinions
1 in regard to the orders issued to the
police over the San Andreas dumping
grounds.
The city attorney is on neutral
grounds. He has ' refused to favor
either the mayor or the council by an
expression of un opinion and will look
up the authorities and give the law
on the subject at the next council
meeting. / : • : ' *
Mayor Wood was not present at the
meeting when the council passed the
regulations against the use of the
dumping grounds. He says that the
council should have referred the mat
ter to him as it was an executive affair,
pure and simple.
BELL BOY PROVES HIS
HONESTY TO GUESTS
RETURNS DIAMOND RING AND
RECEIVES REWARD
Sparkler Worth Several Hundred Dol.
lars Picked Up From Dining Room
Floor at Hotel Alexandria During
Dinner Hour
The honesty of a bell boy in Hotel
Alexandria was well rewarded last
night, when Harold Howell found a
diamond ring which one of the women
guests had lost in the dining room dur
ing the dinner hour.
The guest, whose name is not known,
entered the dining room shortly after
7 o'clock. In company with her hus
band Bhe sat down at a table near
the entrance. No sooner had she
seated herself than she noticed that
her diamond solitaire ring was miss
ing from her finger. In some unac
countable manner it had dropped off
without her notice.
She Immediately made known her
loss to Harold Howell, who was at the
time pageing the name of one of the
guests wanted in the hotel lobby.
The young man set about to find
the ring for the guest and had gone
but a few feet from the table when
the sparkling rays of the two-karat
gem met his eye.
Hurriedly picking the ring from the
floor Howell retored it to its owner.
Presented With Gold Piece
With that Howell started to resume
his pageing but was interrupted by
the owner of the ring.
"Come here, young man," she said.
"You surely do not think that I am
ungrateful."
Something yellow and heavy was
placed In the young man's hsnd. On
glancing down at it Howell was over
joyed at seeing that it was nothing
less than a new $5 gold piece. In an
Instant the profuse thanks of the
guests were graciously returned by
Howell.
This is the second instance within
the past week that jewelry lost by
guests In the Alexandria has been
found and restored to ltß owner. The
honesty of the young men who could
easily have taken advantage of their
opportunities, has been a source of
much commendation by General Man
ager S. J. Whitmore and the guests of
the Alexandria.

THE VALUE OP CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful It It In Pre-
serving Health and Beauty
Nearly everybody knows that char
coal Is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken Into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purposes.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of It the better; It is not »
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and Im
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a. natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels; It
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
Is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
willow charcoal, nnd other harmless
antiseptics In tablet form or rather
in the form of large, pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey. , •„ '
The daily use of these. lozenges will
soon tell In a much Improved condi
tion of the general health, better com
plexion, sweeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty of it is, that
no possible harm can result from their
continued use, but, on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician, In speaking of
the benefits of charcoal, says: "I ad
vise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas In stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
ion and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; I also believe the liver is
greatly benefited by the dally use of
them; they cost but twenty-five cents
a box at drug stores, and although in
some sense a patent preparation, yet
I believe I get more and better char
coal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges
than In any of the ordinary charcoal
tablets." 4-11-18-25

Mexico Plans to Establieh Business
Treaties With South American
West Coast Countries—Amer
ican Steamship Service
By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, March 24,-Special
Agent Pepper of the department of
commerce and labor has made a re
port to the bureau of manufactures
on the Mexican railroad across the
isthmus of Tehuantepec and its rela
tion to the Panama canal. This inter
oceanic line with Its termini and harbor
works at Coatzaooalcos on the Atlan
tic side and at Salina Cruz on the
Pacific, has been opened to interna
tional trade after an expenditure of
$35,000,000.
Intimations are given that Mexico
will now enter upon a series of trade
treaties with Pacific coast countries
of South America to secure their Inter
national traffic and also to extend
Mexican commerce. Though the har
bor works at Salina, Cruz have not been
fully completed, the transshipment of
cargoes is announced to begin there in
June, 1906, though Mr. Pepper believes
It cannot be inaugurated until Sep
tember. The American-Hawaiian
Steamship company is to operate nine
Ssoj-ton steamers on a triangular ser
vice, touching at San Francisco, Salina
Cruz and Honolulu. On the Atlantic
side a weekly steamer service is to
be maintained between Coatzacoalcos
and New York and Coatzacoalcoz and
New Orleans.
Europeans Favored
Consul Dunning of Milan reports to
the bureau of manufactures on the
methods of Italian manufacturers in
building up their trade in the Philip
pines. Lombardy shipped $380 in goods
to Manila in 1903, $4000 in 1904 and for
the six months ending December, 1905,
the shipments from Milan to the Phil
ippines amounted to over $38,000. Many
of the "Manila hats," coveted by
travelers and collectors, the consul
adds, are made In Milan and shipped
into the east by the gross.
Special Agen Hutchinson writes to
the bureau of manufactures from An
lofagosta describing- the shipping fa
cilities between the United States and
Chile and Argentina. The recent at
tempt to break the "combination's"
rates from New York to the River
Plata brought the freights on general
merchandise as low as 5 cents per cubic
foot, or less than half the rnte from
Liverpool. "The wnr" resulted In the
defeat of tho competing line and tho
rates from New York to Buenos Ayres
have jumped to 13 and 16 cents per
cubic foot. In Chile it Is a common
statement that freight rates from New
York average one-third higher than
from TCurope, notwithstanding that tho
published rates would Indicate just
the reverse.
The report says special concessions
to Europeans operate against Ameri
can shipping, and predicts t that with
equal ocean transportation facilities
the foreign trade of the United States
would go ahead more rapidly.
