Mayor MeAleer yesterday received a letter from John Weaver, mayor of Philadelphia, In which the famous re former deplored the earthquake and fire that had wreaked such havoc In Son Francisco and suggested that as Ran Francisco was in such a. bad way it was probable that many of the con ventions that had been scheduled fnr that city could not bs accommodated and Intimating that Philadelphia stood ready with open arms to welcome all such gatherings as might be turned away from the land of sunshine and 'flowers. He dwelt with emphasis on Philadelphia being "rich In historical lore, saying that it was the birthplace of American liberty and as such was peculiarly fitted for a convention city. Mayor Makes Reply Mayor McAleer's reply was prompt and to the point. The chief executive stated that while Los Angeles did not like to appear selfish or to be profiting by San Francisco's trouble, this city •wan willing and eager to care for all conventions that could not be accommo dated at San Francisco. He pointed out the peculiar merits of Los -Angeles as a convention city and concluded by asnurfng Mayor Weaver, with a little veiled sarcasm, that Los Angeles would use 'her utmost endeavors to secure all the conventions she could. By way of showing that hla statement was not Idle talk Mayor MeAleer yes terday sent letters to General Stone, chairman of the Republican state cen tral committee, and to Timothy Spell acy, chairman of the Democratic state central committee, suggesting that both parties choose Los Angeles as the place for holding the state conventions this year. . -. v- NEGRESS DRINKS ACID SOON AFTER MARRIAGE WOMAN'S ACT MYSTIFIES HUS.

There seems to be a general opinion expressed by all that Los An geles has not had quite a fair deal and they are taking hold with interest to make the affair fully as great a suc cess as if no obstacle had Intervened. Spare No Effort The lengthened line of march will give added pleasure to the parade, fnr there will be less of crowding along the way. The members of tho Merchants and Manufacturers' association who have had affairs in charge have spared no tlmo or effort to bring success out of what promised to be failure and now feel that the four days of pleasure will be long remembered. Already the streets are bright with decorations and the colors of Fiesta blend and mingle with the blazonry of Shrinedpm. Great banners bearing pictured camels swing across the streets and on all sides preparation is being made for a general decoration of stores along the line of march. At Venice there is bustle and prep aration for the carnival there. Flags are hung on every \ side and all the camels are being well conditioned for the journeys they must make when the enthusiastic wearers of the fez start on their travels across the sands. The great auditorium at Long Beach Is draped with bright colors and a myrial of electric lights will shine upon the dancers at the Shrlne-Flesta ball, which is to be greater in point of numbers and magnificence of decora tion than any ever given before. Mounted Marshals The parades will be marshaled by horsemen arrayed as cavaliers. Grand Marshal W. A. Hammel will have seven aides, as follows: Dr. G. A. Scroggs, John T. Neff, A. C. Freeman, F. Irwln Herron, Frank T. Barnes, E. It. Gui rado and F. S. Falomares. Each aide to the grand marshal will have five mounted men assisting him and nearly all of these, will be dressed as cavaliers, so that the color schema throughout will be maintained.

The negro was arrested at Tuma Fri day afternoon, by a deputy sheriff of Yuma county. He was captured as he v/as about to return to hla hiding place In a freight car after having visited the railroad yards In search of water. Yesterday during the return trip to Los Angeles, Wilcox shivered as though he were cold, and when questioned by the sheriff stated that he did not shoot tho brnkeman and was not the person wanted, but that he feared he might be Injured upon his arrival In Los An geles. It was not until the negro heard the heavy barred doors of the county jail clang behind him that he quieted down and felt comfortable. Surprise In Store There is a surprise in store for the negro, and. it will be given him this afternoon, when he will be taken to the sheriff's office and there examined before two of his comrades who are now being held, pending the recovery of the brakeman. When the tramps assaulted Krickson, near Saugus, a week ago Friday morn ing, there were four In the gang. "One fired a shot which pierced the brake man's liver and may yet result in the man's death. All the tramps left the train and fled. Three were captured and taken before Erlckson at the Sisters' hospital. He refused to identify any one of the ne groes as the man who shot him. He stated that the three men under arrest were members of the gang, but that the man who drew the revolver was light colored and slightly taller than the oth ers. He gave his assailant's height as 5 feet 9 Inches. The negro arrested at Yuma Friday afternoon answers the description given by Erickson. When measured at the jail, however, he proved to be j«ist above 5 feet 4 inches tall. The officers are holding the negro on the description furnished by his supposed partners rather than that furnished by Erick eon. This afternoon the negro will be taken before Erlckson at the Sisters' hos pital for identification. LOS ANGELES TO SEND .
