Council Instructs City Attorney to
Draw Up Measure Providing for
Bridge Back of Hunting
ton Building
The city council yesterday adopted
the report of the board of public
works, which will result In an ordi
nance being drawn providing for the
construction of a bridge across Los
Angeles street behind the Hunting
ton building, where all the Pacific
Electric cars have their termini.
The city attorney was instructed to
go ahead with such an ordinance.
The board's report, on which favora
ble action was taken by the council,
was as follows:
"Petition No. 373 from the Pacific
Electric Railway company, asking
permission to construct an overhead
structure or bridge across Los Angeles
street, south of Sixth street, which
petition was referred by your honora
ble body to this boad, was referred by
the board to the city attorney, who
has advised us that your honorable
body has i-ower to grant such per
mission by ordinance.
"It appears to this board that the use
of a viaduct at this point will greatly
add to the convenience of the public in
the use of the interurban cars of the Pa
cific Electric railway and will relieve
the present congestion of cars and
consequent Inconvenience and danger
on Main street by facilitating the
handling of such cars at the Pacific
Electric building near this point.
"We therefore recommend that the
petition be granted; provided that the
ordinance do not take effect until the
said railway company shall submit
and file with this board plans and
specifications for the construction of
the said structure; and that the same
shall have been approved by the city
engineer and this board.''
PASADENA CUT-OFF SAVES TIME
Cars to Use Covina and Private Right
of Way
Within a week the new cutoff to
Pasadena on the Pacific Electric sys
tem will be in use, shortening the time
to Pasadena eight to ten minutes and
to South Pasadena and Oneon.a Park
correspondingly.
This cutoff forms part of the new
Covina line, and as most of It is over
a private right of way, there will be no
local stops and no ordinary street
crossing obstacles.
The residents of North Monrovia,
Sierra Madre, San Gabriel, Baldwin's
ranch, Arcadia and all stations east of
Oneonta Park will also come in for a
chare of the time-shortening benefits.
The new cutoff extends from a point
on the old line Just east of the Aliso
street bridge over Los Angeles river,
follows the bed of the Arroyo de las
Posas and emerges back of Eastlake
park and the Indian village.
Hannaford Has New Duties
By Associated Press.
ST. PAUL, Minn., May 13.— The Dis
patch today says:
It was rumored in high official rail
road circles that Jules M. Hannaford,
second vice president of the Northern
Pacific and president of the Northern
Express company, would soon give up
all his railroad duties and confine him
self exclusively to the direction of the
express interests of the Hill system.
Some official announcement is expected
within the month. The Northern Ex
press company, recently organized, has
taken over the business of the Northern
Pacific and will take up that of the
Great Northern Express company.
Council Files Trolley Grievance
Petition No. 432 from D. B. Gregory
et al., asking that steps be taken to
alleviate the deplorable condition of the
street car service on the Temple street,
Angeleno Heights and Belt Line
branches of the Interurban system, was
returned to the council yesterday, as
the jurisdiction of this board does not
extend to the matters referred to in
the petition.

WEIDNER BLAMES
RAILROAD TACTICS
DECLARES MISMANAGEMENT
CAUSED DEATHS
Believes Many of the Injured Could
Have Been Saved if Special
Had Been Hurried to
Hospitals
Los Angeles is mourning today fo»
the Shriners who went to their death
in the wreck of a special north of Santa
Barbara Saturday.
In the place of the red fez which has
distinguished the Shriner for the last
ten days there is now only a tiny bit of
black crape enshrouding the emblem on
the lapel of each man's coat.
Today every flag in Los Angeles is at
half mast, and where a week ago there
were revelers ln every hotel and on
every street corner today there are
silent, sorrowing men and women.
The return of the Los Angeles
Shriners who went to Santa Barbara
to lend aid to their stricken brothers
has only served to increase the gloom.
These men have brought with them re
ports of the suffering at the wreck so
filled with horror that those who heard
them yesterday turned away, heart sick.

ZOBELEINS WILL
BUILD BREWERY
NEW CONCERN CAPITALIZED
AT $1,000,000
Believed to Be Entering the Field as a
Dangerous Rival to the Maier &
Zobelein Brewery — Is a
Close Corporation
The controversy between the Maiers
and the Zobeleins which has been car
ried on in court for months and which
was considered closed several weeks
ago when the Maiers bought all the
stock of the brewing company for $500,
0, took a new phase yesterday when a
representative of the Zobeleins ap
peared in the county clerk's office and
filed articles of Incorporation for a new
brewery to be known as the Zobelein
Brewing company.
Capital stock of the new concern is
named at $1,000,000, the business to be
conducted in Los Angeles county,
and to all intents to be a rival to the
Maier company. All the stock sub
scribed, which is purely nominal, is
listed with members of the Zobelein
family.
In the articles of incorporation the
stock is set forth at $100 per share, the
entire block to be divided into 10,000.
Of that five shares have been sub
scribed for making a total of $500. It
Is understood, however, that practically
all the stock hns been subscribed and,
as is the case In the filing of big cor
porations, only a nominal amount Is
placed on the articles of incorporation.
Brewers Worried
With a new brewery in the field the
other brewers are beginning to sit up
and take notice, for there was much
duscussion yesterday after it became
known that Zobelein had returned to
the field he had Just deserted.
Los Angeles has already been recog
nized throughout the east as the great
brewing city of the west, and this new
brewery, to be, from the statement of
the articles of Incorporation, one of the
best in Southern California, will add to
that reputation.
The trouble between the Maiers and
the Zobeleins began some years ago.
When the company was organized more
than twenty years ago Joseph Maier
and George Zobelein each took an equal
number of shares of stock. Later the
incorporation law came Into effect and
It was necessary for the number of
directors of the concern to be increased.
Three members of the firm were given
one or two shares in order to comply
with the law,, those shares being taken
from the stock owned by the senior
partners.
Extra Shares Bought Up
Until the death of Joseph Maier the
arrangement was pel'ect, but shortly
thereafter trouble arose when it was
learned that the extra shares of stock
had been bought up. Suit was brought
and the case fought out in the higher
courts and the stock of the company
ordered disposed of and a settlement
made.
Then it was that to end the contest
and preserve the long standing good
name of the brewery the Maier boys
bought up the stock for $-.0,000, making
the combined stock worth more than a
million dollars.
That the new concern will be a dan
gerous competitor . is evident from the
fact that the capital stock Is also for
that amount and the arrangements for
a big plant are extensive. George Zobe
lein, John Graf Zobelein, Edward Zobe
lein, Philip Zobelein and B. Zobelein
are named as directors of the new con
cern ,'.-.

OIL INSPECTOR SAFE
FOR ANOTHER WEEK
The city council yesterday laid over
for a week the bill abolishing the office
of oil inspector.
Councilman Clampitt explained that
he believed the work could be done for
$150 to $200 a month. Instead of $450.
He favored doing away with the depu
ties and putting the inspection under
the board of public works. He had
been out at the garbage crematory re
cently and found that though much
oil was burned there by the city the oil
inspector never visited the ylace. The
tests there were made by the crematory
engineer.
Councilman Dromgold said he also
favored putting the Inspection of oil
under the board of public works re
gardless of any individuality in this
question.
WOMAN TOO SICK
TO STAND TRIAL
Overcome by Nervous Shock When
Attacked in Bed and Half
Smothered by Mysterious
Assailant
Upon the presentation of a physi
cian's certificate to the effect that Mrs.
May N. Jesse was too ill to appear in
court the famous suit for ejectment
brought against the woman was con
tinued by Judge Bordwell yesterday
for hearing at a later date.
Myßtery entered the case some days
ago, when on the eve of a court trial
Mrs. Jesse was attacked in her room
at night by a man whom she could not
see. Her pillow was drawn over her
head and tied down, and half dead with
fright and gagged securely she was
left there until the intruder had man
aged to secure Important papers said
to be connected with the case.
It was failure to recover from this
shock that prevented the woman's ap
pearance In court yesterday.
The suit is brought by L. W. and A.
O. Houghton, representing the estate of
Charles Collins.
POSTPONE TURNING ON
KERN RIVER POWER
Edison officials have delayed until to
day the turning on of power on the
longest transmission line in the world
—that from Kern river to Los Angeles.
This current will today, betwen 8
a. m. and 12, pass along 117 miles,
bringing 25,000 kilowatts of electricity
under a pressure of 75,000 volts.
This is the finale of four years of
construction work through rough coun
try, trying to the engineers engaged.
A telephone message from the plant
at Edison, in the Kern country, to the
head works will order the tunnels
flooded and the gate at the Intake will
be raised. Water will thus flow into
the eight and two-thirds miles of un
derground conduit.
The big wheels will then go ahead
generating energy and the power will
then be transmitted via the cables
running along high eteel towers into
Los Angeles.
Previous tests have shown the sys
tem to be In good working order.

PROPOSE PLAN TO
TEACH TEACHERS
CORRESPONDENCE COURSE IS
SUGGESTED
Sunday School Institute of Episcopal
Diocese Hears Interesting Topics
Discussed by Prominent
Speakers
Topics of interest were discussed at
the Sunday school institute of the
Episcopal diocese of Los Angeles yes
terday at St. Paul's parish house. The
main topic of the afternoon was the
advisability of establishing a corres
pondence school for Sunday school
teachers.
Addresses were made on this subject
by Miss Mary Foy and Rev. T. C.
Marshall. Miss Foy spoke of the needs
of the Sunday school and of the need
for trained teachers.
"In my own experience," said the
speaker, "I didn't seem to be able to
get all out of the prayer book that
was needful for the children. There
are many needs of the various schools
In the diocese, and if this correspon
dence school is established then that
faculty shall be an authority for the
various lines. It is the old, old ques
tion of Mohammed and the mountains,
and if the teachers will not or cannot
come to us for direct information,
then we must take it to them."
Tells of Work
Rev. T. C. Marshall, rector of St.
Mark's church and in charge of the
settlement work at the Church of the
Neighborhood, spoke on the subject
of the afternoon and presented the
plans of the correspondence work as
carried on in the northern part of the
state. He said in part:
"We must consider the occupation
of the lives of the teachers. The Sun
day school work is all carried on vol
untarily, and in many cases it is but
an Incident in the life work. The
teachers cannot come together for In
struction at stated times and places,
and therefore our system must be
flexible. The correspondence Idea
means a faculty, a course of reading,
examinations and certificates to be
given for the completion of the
course."
Rev. Mr. Marshall outlined the
course of study as carried on in the
northern diocese.
Very Rev. J. J. Wilkins, dean of the
pro-cathedral, made a short address
in which he outlined the work and
alms of the Sunday school teachers.
Inspiration Needed
"The Sunday schools are over
whelmed with helps, maps and what
not," said the dean. "The Sunday
school teacher is not mechanical; It
is by devotion and Inspiration that re
sults are secured and nothing more."
A moti-n was presented favoring
the adoption of the northern course
and asking that the examiners of the
northern diocese pass on the examina
tions of the local Sunday school teach
ers. Quite a discussion followed, ln
which both sides were taken, and it
was finally decided to ask the north
ern diocese to allow the local diocese
to use the course of study and that a
committee of three be appointed to
form the local examining board. Rev.
Mr. Murphy, Miss Mary Foy and Mrs.
J. D. H. Browne were appointed to
form this committee.
During the afternoon the advisabil
ity of scurlng a general Sunday
school missionary to organize and gen
erally help the Sunday schools was
discussed, and it was decided to se
cure such a person, the expenses to
be defrayed from the missionary of
ferings of the school.
The following officers were elected:
Bishop Johnson, re-elected as presi
dent; Rev. R. L. Windsor, re-elected
as first vice president; Rev. T. C. Mar
shall, re-elected as second vice presi
dent; Miss Clara Heintz, secretary;
Rev. Mr. Murphy, Rev. L. G. Morris
and Mr. Sibley to form the executive
board. Deaconess Grebe, who has
served as the secretary for several
years, was compelled, to give up the
work on account of ill health.
Last night the Sunday schools of
the city assembled at Christ church,
when a mystical play and charades
were presented by the Sunday school
children.

PRIZE FIGHTING
WILL CONTINUE
FIVE COUNCILMEN SETTLE
UNCERTAINTY
Republicans Vote Down City Attorney
Hewitt's Proposed Measure, Non.
Partisans Being in the
Minority
City Attorney Hewitt yesterday
sprang his anti-prize fight ordinance
again, sandwiched in the regular week
ly report and the Republican members
of the city council killed it.
Councilman Wren had just left the
chamber and Councilman Healy after
ward remarked that Wren did so be
cause he was unwilling to vote on the
proposition.
Councilman Wallace said for the ab
sentee that Mr. Wren's wish was that
the ordinance go first to the commit
tee of the whole.
"We desire that the county attorney,
who Is co-ordinate with the city at
torney ln some matters and who de
sired to consult with us, be here," he
added. "That is why wo ask delay."
Councilman eHaly insisted on his
motion to tako action at once, saying
the pros and cons had been discussed
every way before the council.
"We are asking nothing unreasonable
or final — just a week's delay," said
Councilman Wallace, "but If you want
other reasons I will say that the pub
lic Is disgusted with the conduct of
men who stand for this thing of last
week. They disgrace us in the sight
of visitors from all over the world. The
whole city was scandalized."
"I don't believe in letting the San
Francisco fight promoters come down
here and run the game for us," said
Councilman Lyon. "I'm ready to vote."
Nevertheless, the motion to refer to
the committee of the whole Saturday
was lost. Messrs. Blanchard, Clampitt,
Healy, Lyon and Yonkin fighting de
lay.
By the same vote the city attorney's
recommendation was lost.
And the fight game goes on.
