8 HOLLYWOOD IS READY TO ENTER CONSOLIDATION ELECTION TO BE HELD MONDAY MAKES NO CLAIM ON THE CITY WATER DEPARTMENT Until Completion of the Owens River Project Suburban Community Will Not Ask for Ser. vice Hollywood will become a part of Greater Los Angeles next Monday, if the voters of Los Angeles jo not for get to go to the polls. The beautiful suburban city expects to poll almost a unanimous vote for consolidation and leaders of the an nexation movement hope to make a showing at the Los Angeles polls that will be a high compliment to the hustling community that wishes to unite its destiny with that of the metropolis of the south. Bringing into Los Angeles one of the most highly improved districts in Southern California, an assessed val uation of more than six million dollars and 5000 citizens noted for their energy and ability, Hqllywood on her part stands ready to help vote and help pay for the big bond issues which Los Angeles expects to create for harbor Improvements and aqueduct power de velopment. Hollywood Is making no claims on the flity of Los Angeles for water un til such time as the Owens river pro ject is completed. Any objection that might have been raised on this score has been forestalled by the announce ment that the territory to be acquired will depend on its own water supply until the Owens river furnishes enough for all. The consolidation project has been indorsed by the big business and civic organizations of Los Angeles. Bank ers, merchants and real estate dealers alike favor the consolidation with Los Angeles of what they declare is the most desirable suburb now outside the greater city. In Hollywood the board of trade Is leading in the movement for consol idation. A consolidation committee including the following prominent men has been boosting the movement: E. C. Hampton, A. Z. Taft, P. J. Bever ldge, A. E. Merrill, L. G. Somers, George H. Dunlop and J. J. Stcadman. Trustees of the grammar school and officers and directors of the board of trade likewise are boosting consolida tion. The school trustees are A. E. Merrill. R. R. Lyon and J. A. Russell. Officers and directors of the board of trade are E. C. Hampton, A. E. Mer rill, Edward Winterer, J. J. Gibson, L G. Somers, E. Fosler, Thomas F. Cook, A. Z. Taft, C. J. Wade, B. 6. Phelps ' and C. C. Hall. These men are unanimous In the de sire to become a pert of Greater Los Angeles and aid in extending the name and fame of this metropolis of the southwest. THREE BISHOPS MEET WITH METHODIST MINISTERS Addresses Delivered Which Relate to Foreign and Home Mis. Eion Work Three Methodist bishops, one of TV'hom is a member of a family with two others in the ministry of the de nomination, met at the weekly meet ing of the Methodist ministers yester day morning at the First Methodist church, a circumstance which seldom occurs in Methodist circles* exept at Episcopal assemblies. The bishops were J. C. Hartzell of Africa, W. S. Lewis of China and E. H. Hughes of California. Those of the family were Bishop Hughes, his father, Rev. T. D. Hughes and brother, Rev, Matt S. Hughes. As president of the Methodist as sociation it fell to Rev, Matt S. Hughes to introduce the trio of bishops and his father. All those introduced made interest ing addresses in relation to their sep arate fields of work. Action was taken condemning the Sunday aviation feature of the present meeting. Regarding an appeal to be sent to congress for the modification of the Chinese exclusion laws, placed in the form of resolutions which were adopt ed by the Church Federation council of Los Angeles to be acted upon at the chamber of commerce at 3:30 o' clock this afternoon. Fred S. Yager said yesterday: "The joint committee of the council of the church federation of Los An geles, that was appointed some time ago to bring before the Los Angeles chamber of commerce the proposition for more humane treatment of the Chinese in this country, has been in vited to be present this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock at a joint meeting of the committee on laws and committee on immigration. The object of this meet ing will relate to such mollifications of the Chinese exclusion laws by con ifress as will insure the subjects of China in this country more humane treatment in accordance with the treaty entered into between the United States and China more than 25 years ago. This treaty having been practi cally annulled by the Chinese exclu sion laws, which the supreme court of the United States has held to be constitutional, It is up to the people of this coast to demand of congress Buch wholesome amendments as will relieve the situation and yet not favor unrestricted Asiatic Immigration. As the chamber of commerce proposes to send a large delegation to China in the n*ar future to secure closer trade re lations with that great empire, it is proper that our great commercial bod ies should show the Chinese that we appreciate their patronage by deal ing fairly and humanely with their subjects in our own land."

WADE DIPLOMAT FROM BRAZIL EXPIRES AMBASSADOR NABUCO DIES AT WASHINGTON Son of Noted Liberal Chief Passes Away Unexpectedly—U. S. Warship May Convey Body Home [Associated Pressj WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—Senor Joa quin Nabuco, Brazilian ambassador to Washington, died this morning at the embassy here. He was 60 years old. The immediate cause of death is said tr> bave been the rupture of an artery in the brain. For several months the ambassador has been in failing health, and ten days ago his ailment was diagnosed as arterlo sclerosis. This morning he said he felt better, but soon had a sinking spell. When a priest was administering the last rites of the Catholic church the ambas sador passed away. Within an hour after the ambassa dor's death. President Taft called in person at the embassy to convey his condolences. Mr. Xabuco left a wife, two daugh ters and a son. It is believed the funeral will be held at St. Matthew's Catholic church in this city, when high mass of requiem will be cele brated in the presence of President Taft, the cabinet and the entiro diplo matic body. If precedents are followed the body will be conveyed to Brazil in an Amer ican warship, as an evidence of the es teem in which the ambassador was held by this government. Son of Noted Liberal Ambassador Nabuco was a son of the late Senator Nabuco, chief of the Liberal party in Brazil during Dom Pedro ll's reign. Both his grandfather and his great-grandfather were sena tors, so that be represented In tho Brazilian parliament, when he entered it, the fourth generation of his name, tho only such instance under the empire. For years he devoted himself in par liament to the cause of abolition of slavery and attached himself in 18S8 to the imperial dynasty, for which he risked all. On November 15, ISB9, when tho re public was proclaimed, he kept apart from the general movement that led both the mon rchical parties to accept the new regime. He was the author of several hooks dealing with constitutional subjects and history, and in 1895 expressed a wish to reconcile himself with the re public. His proffer was immediately accepted. He served as Brazilian minister to England, was president of the third in ternational conference in Rio de Ja neiro in 1906, and was a member of Tho Hague court of arbitration. He came to Washington as ambassador from Brazil, May 24, 1905. 1 You can buy It. perhaps at many placca, but there's one BEST place to buy It— and that J place advertises.

HALL I EDWARD WINTERER BILLS AGAINST HEINZE VALID DEFECTS IN INDICTMENTS ARE REMEDIED Copper King Is Charged with Misap plication of Funds of Banks Which He Con. trolled NEW YORK, Jan. 17.—Defects in the first indictments against F. Au- gustus Heinze for alleged misapplica tion of bank funds are believed by the federal officials to have been over come in the present indictments. The prosecutors declared today that tliey awaited with confidence the attack promised by Heinze lawyers who. how ever, asserted that sensational allega tions would be made to convince the court lhat the new indictments should be dismissed, as were the old ones. Motloni to quash the indictments were lirst in order of argument, Fail ing in this, the attorneys held the de murrers in reserve to protect not ouly P. A. Heinze, but his brother, Arthur P. Heinze, and other oflicers and «m --ployes of the United Copper company indicted for conspiracy to obstruct the obtaining of evidence In the Heinze investigation. Evidence of the thorough going fight Hie Heinze attorneys were prepared to make for their clients was furnished when the members of the grand jury which indicted F, Augustus Heinze ap peared in court in obedience to sup poenac. District Attorney Wise asked that the subpoenas for the jurymen be quashed but Judge Hough ruled against him. John li. Stanehfleld moved to quash the indictment on the ground that it was on information and belief und not on positive evidence, and argued for the constitutional right to question the jurymen on this point. The Heinze lawyers apparently Im presed the court by their statement that John P. Fernsler, a public account ant, had illegally participated in the proceedings of the grand jury, nam ing witnesses and presenting papers. "I shall require some argument," said Judge Hough, "to convince me that a bookkeeper, even when appointed by the attorney general, has a legal right to fulfill the duties of a United Statei attorney." Judge Hough decides not to proceed today with the examination of the jurymen and excused them until furth er call. The case was adjourned for a v.eek.
