MAIN STREET TO BE HARBOR ROAD Street Committee Chooses Route for Business Highway to San Pedro, IMPROVEMENTS ARE PLANNED Pavement to Be Laid to City Lim its—Assessments Are to Be Levied Main street is to be the route for tfce highway to connect the business district of Los Angeles with the har bor. This was decided yesterday by the streets and boulevards committee on the recommendation of W. M. Hum phreys, Inspector of public works. Mr. Humphreys has made a careful study of all the possible routes to the har bor and found tho Main etreet way the bast. Mr. Humphreys will go before the board of supervisors to get the co operation of that body In permanently Improving the road extension of Main street outside the city limits. Main street Improvement Is a part of the whrrae for the county highways. Pro ceedings, to Improve Main and Moneta with asphalt surfnco as far as the city limits will be Instituted as soon as pos sible. Mr. Humphreys stated that some of the property owners who would be In cluded In the assessment district for tills pavement considered that as tho street was to be made a highway for the whole city, the whole city should pay a portion of the expense of the pavement, but the streets committee decided thut as the choice of Main street for this purpose would grently appreciate values the people In the as noßsment district could easily afford to pay th« cost. The road will be continued to Sev enth and J streets, in Wilmington, and then carried around Huntlnfrton boule vard until It connects with the new harbor highway at San P«dro. Ordinances for the condemnation of l.iiid to construct this harbor highway in San Pedro and for the widening of Ran Pedro avenue and land fur wan houses were passed by the city coun cil yesterday. These ordlnnncen were invented to the council Tuesday by Leslie R. Hewitt, special counsel for the harbor, and approved by the streets and boulevards and harbor committees Rt nn afternoon session. KEPPEL WANTS PENDLETON ON DEMOCRATIC TICKET Republican Declares He Does Not Want Nomination Mark Keppel, Republican nominee for county superintendent of schools and, according to the supervisors, the Dem ocratic nominee aleo, has written a letter to Albert M. Norton, chairman of the Democratic county central eom- tnittee, in which he says that while he believes he whs legally awarded the Democratic nomination, he believes Mr. Pendleton morally entitled to it. His letter follows: "Mr. Albert M. Norton, chairman of the Democratic county central com- mlttee, Los Angeles, Cal. •Dear Sir: I am Informed that pro ceedings have been instituted for the purpose of compelling the board of supervisors to remove my name from the Democratic ticket as a candidate for county superintendent of schools. While I believe that the nomination was legally awarded to me, yet it Deems evident to me that 280 Demo crats attempted 'to vote for M. R. Pendleton and that 258 attempted to vote for Mark Kepvel. Morally, there fore it appears to me that Mr. Pen dleton is entitled to the Democratic nomination. I trust that the courts will be able to award to him legally that which is morally due to him. "Truly yours, MARK KEPPEL, "County Superintendent." Many Democrats, in writing in the name of Mr. Pandleton, wrote the In itials "W. R." instead of "M. R."

LOWER FARES TO SUBURBS LIKELY Los Angeles-Pacific Company to Offer Figures to Hollywood and Colegrove People FIVE-CENT RATE PROBABLE Representatives of Corporation Will Confer with Commut ers Next Thursday In all probability the controversy between the residents of Hollywood and Colegrove and the Los Angulos- Paclflc company in regard to car ser vi<. and 5 cent fares to these two point, will be settled definitely Thurs day, September 8, when a committee of citizens of both towns will meet officials of the railroad company and discuss their differences. Notices were sent out yesterday by the latter to the boards of trades of both Colegrove and Hollywood requesting that such a committee be appointed. This latest move in regard to the 5 cent fare matter comes at the instiga tion of Paul Shoup of San Francisco, general manager of all the Southern Pacific's electric holdings, who i.s In Los Angoles for a few days. With General Manager Robert Sherman and Attorney Gurney Newlln of the L. A.- P. company he will meet '.he citizens' committee and will endeavor to come to some settlement with them. The citizens of Hollywood and Cole grove have been fighting for a 5 cent fare for sometime past. Numerous pe titions have been sent the. company demanaing a reduction of the rate, which is now 10 cents each way, but hitherto their demands have brought them no satisfaction* The company is now, however, offering to meet the citizens of their own accord and ac cording to all reports the officials are going into it with a determination to get the matter settled once and for all time. At the general offices of the com pany yesterday no information could be obtained as to the proposition which they would offer the two towns, or what concessions they were willing to make. The officials wild state, how ever, that some radical changes were being contemplated and that the citi zens of Hollywood and Colegrove v.-uld have no cause to complain af ter the conference. The metting will be held in the gen eral offices of the company, at Fourth and Hill streetss.

BIG BET ON RESULT OF WORK ON AQUEDUCT TUNNEL An Interesting contest between two gangs of tunnel workers, on the result of which fully $25,000 has been wagered, Is Jn progress In the Elizabeth lako bore, which, it is said, js the most im portant single piece of construction in the aqueduct project. The tunnel work ers have shown much rivalry ever since the work began, and now that the end is in sight the struggle is becoming strenuous. The gang which passes dead center in the driving of the tunnel will win the wager posted. There is still 3500 feet of rock to penetrate, but such rap id progress is being made that every foot of advantage gained now will count at the finish. For this reason the two crews are putting in their besx licks.

I.—An uprising against the government is reported in the province of Neuva Viscaya. A constabulary force is hurrying to the scene and a battle is expected hourly. The rebel movement Is headed by Simeon Mandac, former governor of the province of Ilocos Norte, who has been a fugitive from justice. Mandac occupies Solano, a town of about 6000 inhabitants northwest of the center of Nueva Viscayu and about five miles north of Bayonong. The telegraph wires north of Bayonong have been cut and it is impossible to learn the number of Mandat's follow ers. It is doubted, however, that the rising is serious. Colonel Taylor at the head of the constabulary at Bayonong is prepar ing for an attack and the constabu lary forces from other points are mov ing toward Solano to surround the out laws and capture them. Government reinforcements are available if needed. Word of the trouble reached Manila today. Mandac, while governor, sub jected a prisoner to a "third degree" examination of such severity that the man died. The governor was convicted of homicide and sentenced to fourteen years' imprisonment. He appealed from the verdict of the court and while the appeal was pending jumped his bond and has been missing for sev eral months. Nueva Viscaya is the central pro vince of Luzon and Bayonong Is its capital. Up to a late hour tonight there has been no clash between the constabu lary and the rebels. Mandac and his followers withdrew from Solano on the approach of the constabulary, and It Is presumed have gone into the moun tains while the detachments are pre- paring to follow. It Is not clear what the size of Man dac's force is or the number of guns he has at his disposal, but it Is be lieved both are small and that the disturbance Is local. ■ REBEL LEADER CONVICTED OF MURDERING PRISONERS WASHINGTON, Sept. I.—Mail ad vices received at the war department todtiy brought detailed accounts of the disfavor into which Simeon Mandac had fallen since his election to the governorship of Ilocos Norte province last January. He lost his position as governor as a result of a charge of murdering Deograclas Agacanas at Laoagu, the capital of the province, March 17. Agacanas and several others had been arrested aa accomplice's in the killing of a horse. Upon investiga tion by a local official they were re 1, Thereupon, it was alleged, Governor Mandae proceeded to have a star chamber investigation of hia own. It is alleged he struck and otherwise maltreated the prisoners to force a confession, kicking Agacanas in the stomach. Agacanas died the follow- ing day. Mandac was tried on a charge of homicide, was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for fourteen years. An appeal was taken to the supreme court and Mandac was released on $5000 bond. Mandac disappeared and all attempts to discover him failed. DIFFERENT THERE A mother who is somewhat the "man of the house" recentiv said, while put ting on her shoes: "I certainly am easy on shoes.
