SEEK ABOLITION
OF DEATH DIP
HOPE TO AVERT ACCIDENTS AT
CROSSING
Board of Public Works and Railway
Company Agree to Construct a
New Bridge at Arroyo
de los Posos
Members of tho King's Highway Im
provement association held a meeting at
the association's hall, Brooklyn avenue
and Enchandia street, last night for the
purpose of hearing the report of the com
mittee recently appointed to interview the
board of public works on tho subject of a
new bridge at the Arroyo de los Posos.
This is the famous death dip curve where
the fatal accident on the Pacific Electric
road occurred last August.
According to the report made by J. N.
Seeres, Alfred Wllholt, J. Jassaud, F. A.
Markott and Charles Paul, the committee,
a definite date will be set for the work
to begin as soon as Attorney Dunn of tha
Pacific Electric returns to Los Anpreles.
The street railway company has already
consented to the change being mane and,
according to the committee, the members
the board have also agreed that the
work should now go ahead.
Plans Are Drawn
In a letter written to Chief Engineer
George E. Pillsbury of the Pacific Electric
by Horace B. Ferris, secretary of the
board of public works, it is stated that the
city engineer has for several months had
plans for a new bridge, and only awaits
formal notice, to have the work started.
"The street railway company has been
fair In all offers It has made," said Mr.
Wilhoit last night. "Its officers seem to
know the dangerous character of the
curve there and wish to have it elimin
ated. The board of purjllc works has noi
come to the front In this matter the way
It should, but the residents of this vicin
ity now hope they have seen that It is
necesary to have some change made and
will not delay any longer."
At the request of the members of the
improvement association a police call box
was placed on Brooklyn and Enchandia
streets yesterday. The members of tho
association have been striving during the
last year to have a box placed In this
location.

In a suit filed yesterday in the super
ior court Mrs. Rettie Miller asks $20 000
damages from the Pacific Electric Rail
way company for the loss of her hus

The complaint charges that the de
fendant on May 5 purposely, recklessly
and unlawfully caused Its car to run
clown hill on a sloping grade at a speed
exceeding twenty miles an hour.
It is further alleged that there was no
■warning bell, nor was any attempt
made to check the speed of the car,
which plaintiff alleges could have been
stopped if the air brakes had been ap
plied.

Petty Crime
Harrison Oliver was sentenced to
serve seven years' Imprisonment at San
Qucntin yesterday, having been con
victed last week of stealing 800 pounds
of copper wire from tho United States
Telephone company.
Oliver has served several terms In the
penitentiary and when arraigned for
sentence attempted to make it appear
that he had been imposed upon in the
present case, but Judge Smith was of a
different opinion and said:
"Never in my experience on the bench
have I met a defendant that could put
up so lngeViious a defense as you. Ihe
story that yqu told the judge hero is
tho best piece of fiction that I have
heard for some time.
"I don't believe that there Is a lawyer
in this city that could arrange a bet-
e in°Tho trial Oliver claimed to have
received the wire from a traveling
junkman, whose wagon had broken
down in front of the prisoner's house
and the next day Oliver came to Los
Angeles from Santa Monica, where he
was living, and arranged to sell It. He
was captured just as he was about to

tempted to explain by saying that his
supposed friend, the traveling junkman,
could not write.

MAYOR OF WATTS
IS EXONERATED
Post.Election Squabble, Carried to
Court, Results in Acquittal of
Man Charged with Saying
Naughty Words
Being elected mayor of a town in
which there is a strong tendency -toward
prohibition while one Is the local rep
resentative of a Blue Ribbon brewing
company Is no cinch, according to the
testimony of Mayor J. F. Donahue of
Watts, tried yesterday before Justice
Stephens on a charge of disturbing the
peace.
After hearing the case the justice ac
quitted the mayor, nnd with a few ex
ceptions the population of Watts left
the court room rejoicing.
It was charged that on June 27 when
Donahue was elected for the first time
he said a few pointed things to D. C.
Lamb, a farmer who admitted he lived
outside the incorporation of Watts, al
though he had led the "dry" element In
a vigorous campaign for the election of
ano license mayor. Lamb was sup
ported In his allegations by several
witnesses, all of the prohibition party,
who swore that the mayor, among other
things, was unduly excited.
The defense claimed that Lamb and
a few of his cohorts were holding a
condolence meeting in tho street in
front of tho polling place, bewailing
their recent defeat and promising to
even things up at the election next
April when the mayor ordered them to
desist.
Mayor Donahue admitted that a cer
tain amount of joyful exuberance
might have been displayed when
he attempted to disperse the disgruntled
ones, but he emphatically denied using
profanity In the presence of women and
children, as charged in the complaint.

to a story which she related to the po

house burned down and there was no
insurance. . Following this came the
death of her oldest son and in the In
terim and twice since William, the
missing 1 boy, met with serious acci
dents, both of which involved medical
treatment and long confinement to his
bed.
The mother Is afraid that he has met
with another accident of some kind, as
she says that he is reckless regarding
his personal safety and in play and
boyish adventure takes chances which
the ordinary boy would not think of.
His description is given as 5 feet 4
inches In height, US pounds in weight,
blue eyes and dark brown hair. He
was dressed in an ordinary dark suit
when last seen by h-ls mother.

MAN WALKS INTO
VAT OF HOT WATER
DOCTORS SAY HE IS FATALLY
SCALDED
Attempted to Pass Through Gas Com.
pany's Yard in the Dark and
Meets with Awful
Fate
A man whose name is supposed to be
Cochran fell or walked into a vat or pit
cf boiling water at the works of the Los
Angeles Gas and Electric company at
Aliso and Vignes streets shortly after 9
o'clock last night, and was so badly
burned about his lower limbs, hips and
abdomen that he will probably die.
For nearly three-quarters of an hour
after the accident happened Cochran was
kept lying on the ground at the gas works
suffering excruciatingly because of tho
inability of the hospital to send promptly
an ambulance to remove him, and it was
not until after a call had been sent to
Bresee Bros, for a conveyance that the
sufferer could be moved from the spot
and taken to where he could be given
relief and surgical attention. In the mean
time, despairing, of the coming of the
emergency and general hospital ambu
lance, the police patrol was sent for, but
by the time it arrived there the Bresee
ambulance had taken tho man away.
According to the employes of the gas
company nothing was known of Cochran
until they heard his screams for help.
Two or three workmen ran into the yard,
where the carbon pits are located, and
found the man rolling In agony on tho
ground. It needed no explanation to tell
what had happened him. The near by pit
of boiling water on the edge of which he
was lying, and the cooked appearance of
his limbs was enough. In some way
Cochran had walked or fallen into the pit
and received his burns. The vats are
level with the ground and uncovered. It
Is probable that in passing through the
grounds Cochran in the dark walked Into
the pit. After he had scrambled out and
before help came to him he had managed
to tako off his trousers and undergar
ments.
Nothing Is known of who Cochran is,
and the only information obtainable about
him is that he is supposed to have rela
tives living at 232 East First street. There
was no one at home there last night to
give any information concerning him.

POLICE DEPARTMENT IN
ROLE OF FIRE FIGHTERS
At 3:35 o'clock yesterday morning Pa
trolman McCart, while walking his beat
on South Main street, discovered a fire in
the rear of the store at No. 533, occupied
by the Fields Paint company. He at once
telephoned an alarm to the fire depart
ment, and shortly after, as the firei
seemed to be gaining headway, he turned
in a box alarm.
The fire department made a slow run to
the scene and before the arrival of the
apparatus the officer discharged his re
volver in the air to attract the attention
of other policemen. Sergeant Kriege and
five officers hurried to the scene and the
situation was explained.
The officers then broke In the rear door
of the paint establishment and with a
number of buckets Secured from an empty
building adjoining they formed a bucket
brigade from a near-by hydrant, and by
the time of the arrival of the fire depart
ment had the blaze under control.
Several barrels of linseed oil, one of
which was on fire, were removed from
the building by the officers to prevent an
explosion and the consequent spreading
of the flames. The loss to the establish
ment is estimated at $100.
