Invitation for Two Political
Gatherings
Philadelphia Is after tho conventions
scheduled for Lot Angeles, but the city
Of Brotherly Love won't get them If
Mayor MeAleer has anything to say
about It.
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-

\NMrs. Mallory, a young
negM>ss, took carbolic acid with suicidal
intent at her room, 109 San Pedro street,
yesterday afternoon and died an hour
later at the receiving hospital.

■ The- young negress was married
about thrre weeks ago to Howard Mal

The couple have been living at tho
Jones hotel, 109 South San Pedro street.
Both husband and wife seemed quiet
and little was known of them by the
other lodgers. '
About 4:30 o'clock, a brother-in-law,
George Mallory, hastily notified the
landlady, Mrs. Jones, that the young
women had Just taken acid. A hurry
call . was telephoned to the police sta-
Kon and the ambulance was sent with
Dr. Charles Friedman In charge. Mrs.
Mallory was found In convulsions upon
her bed. On the table stood an empty
bottle of carbolic acid and another of
laudanum. A glass partly filled with
sherry . wine and carbolic acid was
found. Although Dr. Friedman saw
that there was practically no hope of
saving her life he took the unconscious
woman to the receiving hospital and
with I>r. Quint worked over her, but
she died.
The negress was in good health and
.apparently lived harmoniously with her
husband. Another roomer, however,
said that she thought Mrs. Mallory be

everything that can be done to lend
c-olor to the line of march has been
planned. ■-■■'■'•■;■'<
The enthusiasm displayed by the vis
iting Shrlnors la a pleasing part of the
festival. 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. This

BELIEVE NEGRO
IS WANTED MAN
ALLEGED ASSAILANT OF A
BRAKEMAN IN JAIL
Officers State Tramp Arretted at
Yuma Friday Answers Perfectly
the Description Given by
Frank Erlckson
Trembling and shaking in an ecstasy
of .fright, a negro supposed to be Jack
Wilcox, who shot Frank Erlckson, a
brakeman, several days ago, arrived In
Los Angeles yesterday afternoon and,
guarded by Sheriff White and deputies,
waß taken to the county Jail and locked
up pending investigation.
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.
