COMPANY CANNOT
LAY THIRD RAIL
STREET FRANCHISE HELD BY
OTHERS
Hook Secured Original Right end As.
signed to the Company Subse
quently Purchased by
Interurban
Judge Bordwell yesterday granted a. tem
porary injunction on the application of
City Attorney Hewitt, restraining the Los
Angeles-Pacific Railway company from
laying a third rail on Hill street, from
Sixth to Sixteenth streets, and on Six
teenth street from Will to Flguerna, pend
ing the hearing of a suit filed in the
■uperior court, which will be heard July 19.
The present litigation will reopen the
contention between the city official and
the corporation that was settled two
weeks ago by Judge Hutton of the su
perior court, when he granted a permanent
injunction restraining the city from In
terfering with the work.
In the new complaint It Is charged that
the Los Angeles-Pacific company has no
franchise authorizing it to lay rails
•within the city limits.
The franchise under which the com
pany runs its cars on the. streets of Los
Angeles, City Attorney Hewitt alleges, is
held by the Los Angeles Interurban com
pany, which contracted with the Los An
geles-Pacific for a yearly rental of $.". to
allow the latter to use Its tracks.
Outside the city it Is claimed that the
Los Angeles-Pacific lines run over private
right of way all the way to Seattle, Palms
and the beach resorts.
The franchise was originally granted to
W. S. Hook, who assigned It to the com
pany which was subsequently bought out
by the Los Angeles Interurhan. and by
the terms of the rental contract this com
pany only Is In possession of the right to
lay rails.
MALIBU TRACK LAYERS READY
Five-Mile Section of Port Los Angeles
Line Graded
The first five miles of the new Hueneme.
Mallbu & Port Los Angeles railroad
has been graded and turned over to the
track layers. As soon as rails and ties
come In sufficient quantities the laying
operations will begin.
The contractors will start their second
five-mile contract for grading at once,
as It has been found desirable to let the
work In small sections.
It Is generally believed that this is
part nf the new route controlled by the
Western Pacific, though the men on the
work are silent and apparently ignorant
as to who is footing the bills.
JUDGE TRASK DEFENDS
SPEEDY CHAUFFEUR
Former Judge Trask appeared in tho
police court yesterday to defend J. J.
Norton, charged with violating the speed
ordinance. Patrolmen Humphreys and
Trlplett alleged that Norton, who was
driving the big red machine of L. A.
Marcs, had been traveling west on Seventh
street at a rate of seventeen miles an
hour.
Trask brought nut the fact that the of
ficers had been half :< block behind the
machine during the time they had timni
it, and the court held that this was not a
proper test of speed.

The Fanner's Wife
Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it a sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that If her churn is sour it will taint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this stomach-churn is foul it
; makes foul all which is put into it?
I The evil of a foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste In the mouth and the foul
I breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the dissem-
ination of disease throughout the body.
I Dr.' Pierces Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
It does' for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn— absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way It euros blotches,

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
CONDEMNS SMOKE NUISANCE
The chamber of commerce yesterday
filed with the city clerk a copy of a reso
lution condemning the smoke nuisance
passed by the board of directors on
July 10.
The resolirtlons state that the smoke
which Is allowed to pour into the atmos
phere In Los Angeles is so great in amount
as to be a serious menace to public health
in that such excessive contamination Is
detrimental to the physical well being of
the people.
Smoke and soot is blamed as the cause
of deterioration of goods exposed to sale
by merrhants; It changes the character
of certain neighborhoods, and the pall of
rmokn causes criticism and gives un
favorable impressions to both citizens and
prospective residents.
The council committee of the whole will
today consider an amended anti-smoke
law.
CITY TO CONTROL
AGRICULTURAL PARK
MAYOR HARPER HAS HOPE OF
SETTLEMENT
After All. Day Conference City's Ex.
ecutive Announces That Big Recre
ation Grounds May Be Turned
Over for Use of Municipality
"After an all-day talk with those in
terested I believe we can safely say that
the city will soon get control of Agricul
tural park," said Mayor A. C. Harper last
night after a conference with E. L. Do
heny, Charles Canfield and W. G. Kerck
hoff.
The plan is not to buy the park but to
turn It over to the city, as the day of agri
cultural fairs seems to have passed, and
it can no longer be used for that pur
pose. The Improvements are falling into
disrepair.
Originally the park was laid out for
what is known as the Sixth Agricultural
association. The land was to be devoted
to fairs given by Los Angeles, Ventura,
San Diego and San Bernardino counties.
For years driving races have been con
ducted on the mile track. After the de
cadence of fairs the Los Angeles Harness
Horse association also held Its meets in
the p:irk.
There is a dispute on between a faction
of men here who claim as stockholders
they control the property. Others say
that It belongs to the state.
It is over these points that yesterday's
conference was held.
Citizens of the Fifth ward some time
ago started a new movement to make the
park, or at least part of it, available for a
public playground and athletic field, and
the Improvement associations have taken
hold of the project.
It is now hoped that the property can be
dedicated for municipal uses once more,
and Mayor Harper's announcement is re
garded as highly important from that
standpoint.

the hat that once was his.
It disappeared from the board rnntn at

Phones: Sunset ISO 7, Home 2m
PASADENA. July 11— Will a fairy mil
lionaire appear at the critical time and
dissipate the debt cloud overhanging Hotel
Wentworth and Fettle upon the promoter
of that giant enterprise Its management
for life? This Is tho question which, fairy
like, Is haunting the creditors and stock
holders of the hotel company.
It Is announced with confident assurance
that a millionaire bachelor friend of Gen.
Wentworth in the earlier days, who Is
now soJcwirnliiK In Mexico, has come for
ward with a promise to finance the entire
undertaking, pay off the unsecured credi
tors, lien holders and bondholders, and put
Gen. Wentwnrth in charge of the hotel, to
remain in that capacity as long as he
lives, or until he retires from active life.
All that remains to consummate this
climax of the affairs of the big tourist
hotel Is the signing of the contracts by
Get. Wentworth and his bachelor friend
of tho many millions. The great capitalist
Is said to have resided In Pasadena some
dozen years ago or more and recently to
have made his home in the vicinity of
Riverside. His name is withheld for busi
ness reasons, but he is expected to return
from Mexico In a few days and put his
"John Hancock" to the paper now repos
ing in the vault of a Los Angeles bank
awaiting the signature that Is to bring
happiness and peace of mind to so many
anxious creditors and holders of hotel
stock.
At 10:30 next Monday morning Judge
Wellborn is expected to decide whether the
state court has Jurisdiction In the bank
ruptcy proceedings In this case. In the
meantime various rumors are floating
around In regard to the affairs of the
hotel. One of these is that D. M. Llnnard
of the Maryland has been negotiating for
the management of the new hostelry, and
this rumor Is party confirmed, but it is
emphatically affirmed that he is not at all
likely to secure such control.
Another report being circulated is that
Gen. and Mrs. Wentworth have sold
Wentworth Hall, their big White moun
tain hotel, for J250.000. This report Is
neither confirmed nor denied. It is opti
mistically declared by the hopeful general
that all will come well in the end, and the

CHURCH BUILDING
CANNOT BE USED
Chautauqua People Told That House

Purposes Must Be
Taxed

Phone — Home 297.
LONG BEACH, July 12.— The plans of
the directors of the Chantauqua associa
tion to hold the sessions of the coming
session In tho new First Baptist church
went up "in smoke" today when the of
ficials of the church Informed officers of
the board that In order that the church
property may be exempt from taxation,
according to law, other quarters would
have to be secured.
While arrangements for a new place of
meeting have not been completed it is
probable that the auditorium will be used
as heretofore, but with a temporary plat
form built along the south side, as during
the recent Christian Endeavor convention.
It was found that the voices of the
speakers could be heard much better from
this platform than from the permanent
stage In the east end of the building.
The Chautatiqua directors were sorely
disappointed by these eleventh-hour de
velopments, but will make the best of the
situation.
Having heard rumors that the assessors
had been Investigating the case, the
church trustees took up the matter with
Hartley Shaw, chief deputy to the district
attorney, who advised them that It would
be wise to give up the Chautauqua plan.
The church property Is valued at &0.000
and the taxes would be considerable. The
section of the political code to which
Attorney Shaw called the attention of the
membors of the board follows:
"Section No. 3611 — Exemption of church
property— When all buildings and so
much of the real property on which they
are situated as may be required for the
convenient use and occupation of said
buildings, when the same are used solely
and exclusively for religious worship,
shall be free from tax."
Chautauqua opens next Monday, July
15. Nathaniel C. Schaeffer, former presi
dent of the N. E. A., will deliver the ad
dress of the first evening. Tuesday morn-
Ing the program of class work and Bible
study will be taken up. Tuesday night's
attractions have not been entirely decided
upon as yet. On Wednesday night Gov
ernor Henry A. Buchtel of Colorado will
lecture. On Thursday night a concert by
Ellen Beach Yaw Goldthwalte will be tho

night from a trustworthy source that in

ing sketches at Fort Rosecrans a few
days ago, another was expelled from the
fort today for having a blue print of the
works in his possession.
This latter Japanese was employed as a
servant at the fort. He Is a man of
superior attainments. In his room was
found a standard work on engineering.
The blue print was well drawn and
showed much technical skill, ">ut was not
quite completed.
Major Gatchell still positively refuses
either to admit or deny that Japanese
have been detected in spying at the fort,
birt from others in a position to know
the facts the report is confirmed.

DOG WITH $10,000 LEGACY
GETS SO FAT THAT HE DIES
Special to The Herald
NEW YORK, July 13.— The exactions
of high living have claimed another
j victim. "Dandy Jim," a sybarite of the
I canine race and the only dog in the
world that possessed a personal for
tune of $10,000, and that wore diamonds,
is dead today In his home, 322 East
Forty-second street, having succumbed
to an attempt to live up to his exalted
position.
As to the precise cause of his death,
unhappily, there is no doubt. "Got too
fat to breathe" is the verdict of the
physicians who attended him in a sud
den seizure of apoplexy that followed a
light luncheon of chicken and mayon
naise of salmon, topped off with a
pound of chocolate creams.
The daily program of luxurious liv
ing which proved too heavy for his ad
vanced years was a part of the pro
gram laid down by his late mistress,
Miss Ellen Ann Griffin, a spinster who
for many years was known as "the
hermit of Union square." She disdained
all other companionships than that of
Dandy Jim and her housekeeper, Mary
McGlvney.
It is a favorite story among the
women In the neighborhood of her old
home that the death of the man whose
wife she was to have been broke her
heart, so she lavished the affection
which might have been given to chil
dren upon an ugly little black and tan
spaniel, which snapped and snarled at
all things human and canine that came
within his reach.
Dandy Jim accompanied his misy^ss
on her drives in the park and Jlned
with her In fashionable restaufants
from dishes designed for epicure*. He
wore his diamond decked blank* wun
all the hauteur of a Tammany h*ll dis
trict leader. In her will his njistreFS
left a legacy of $10,000 to Miss McGiv
ney for his maintenance. Miss mc-
Givney carried out her directions with
all possible enthusiasm, so Dano> Jim
grew fatter and fatter until his Wreath
came in short, wheezes. \
