FIRE MATTERS.
Meeting with the Underwriters
Yesterday.

The members Of the Fire Commits
sioners, Messrs. Workman, Humph
reys and iced, together with num-
Der Of representatives of different
insurance companies, hailing from
San Francisco, San Jose and several
of this city, met at the Mayors office
yesterday at II A. NJ, for the purpose
of formulating some definite plan OF
action by which the property in the
city of Los Angeles might be made
more secure from fire and the risk
taken by insurance companies dim
inished.
Colonel VIM. Sexton, of San Jose,
stated that he wished to correct an
opinion which he had heard init
mated, which was to the effect that
this delegation of insurance men i'm
piled a threat on the part of in
surance companies to pull out
of what some people were pleased to
call "five-story city with two-story
fire department" eaid he, there are
gentlemen here that represent $780,
COG, 900 Of capital, and we are ready
to take up sny of the policies held by
q Withdrawing company. We realize
that you have not such fire depart
ment as city Of this proportion

TO LIGHT MONROVIA.

n ~ SSC
There is a proposition on foot to
light Monrovia with electricity. On
Saturday last w. E. Dennison, mana
ger of the Electric Development Com
pany OF this city, visited Monrovia
and Saw Pit Canon to inspect the
water supply and the chances offered
for securing the requisite power.
In conversation with Mr.. Denni~
son he informed us that with fall Of
eighty feet, which could easily be
secured, and using twelve-inch
turbine wheel, a 192-horse power
could be secured. Such a wheel
would use so square inches OF water
and 1903 cubic feet of water would pass
through it per minute, the wheel max
ing 905 revolutions in that time. This
192-horse power would be sufficient to
run 23O0 16-candle power lamps J;
more than would be required at the
present time. The estimated cost Of
putting in the fume, wheel, wires and
masts would not exceed $15, 900, and
might be much less. This would be
with $50 lamps. The expense OF con-
Quoting such plant after it was once
established would be slight, requir-
ing the services OF two men, one to
take charge of the works and the
other to attend to the business. Aside
from this there would only be the in
terest on the cost of the plant and a
slight outlay for possible wear or
damage to the system. 1t would be
safe to estimate that electric light
thus furnished would be as cheap as
gas at 81 per 1000 feet.

should have, but we further wish il
understood that we fully comprehend
the marvellous growth experienced
and the impossibility Of department
keeping pace with it.
Mr.. Cofrom, Mr.. E. d. Farnsworth
and other gentlemen from San Fran
cisco, expressed themselves as being
we'll pleased, after examination, with
the Fire Department, stating that they
felt assured of its efficiency, but they
had discovered the water supply to
be totally inadequate. Chief Moriarity
stated that he considered the supply
ample if there was a way
provided by which it could
be utilized. He advocated that
the main of the Citizens Water Com
pany on the hills be connected by a
ten-inch pipe with the twenty-five
inch main on Main street. Mayor
Workman and Mr.. Humphreys cor
daily invited the visitors to express
themselves freely as to the needs OF
the city, assuring them that any sug-
gestions they should be pleased to
make would be thoughtfully consid-
cred by the Board, which was anxious
to do everything in its power to fur
Their the interests OF the city in more
perfectly protecting the property OF
citizens against fire. Mr.. Sexton in
formed the Board that the rate adj
juster of the Pacific Insurance Union,
Mr.. Stillman, would be in the city
to-day, and after consulting with that
gentleman they would be pleased to
meet the Board at any time they
would designate and confer with them.
The question OF engines was brought
up, but no particular manufacture
was recommended. The expression
was that in city such as Los Angeles
is both heavy and light engines should
be in the service, as where one would
be required another would be useless.
The ordinance prohibiting firemen
from driving through the streets at a
greater rate OF speed than eight miles
per hour was heartily and unanimous
ly condemned.
A special meeting OF the Commits
sioners was called for II A. NJ. to-day.

NEGLECT CHARGED.
Capt. L. A. Gilbert Says He Was
Not Treated Right.

wv AAOAsCN AehS me-
Captain T. A. Gilbert, who was
foreman of the gravel train in the
collision of December 18th, was Grip
pied and had six ribs broken. He
says that he was compelled to lay in
the hospital day and a half without
treatment. He was there four weeks,
and he says the only treatment he re-
ceived was court-plaster, few pills
and little cough syrup. He was dis
charged from the hospital after that
time. The examination by DR.. Kan
non showed that he needed constant
attention and should have been de-
tanned at the hospital. DR.. Tremaine
complained that the hospital funds
were exhausted, and for that reason
the patient was discharged. Mr..
Gilbert reported to Superintendent
she pherd, who told him to get a good
doctor and have the bills sent to him
for settlement. DIR. Ramon exam
ined him and found two unlimited
fractures Of ribs, hypostatic pneumo-

the muscles of the neck. DR.. Kirk
patrick corroborated DR.. Kannon's
examination.
The employees of the Santa Fe road
are reported to be circulating a petit
ton for the removal of Drs. Tremaine
and Wing for not attending to their
duties. The men subscribe to the
hospital funds and complain of re-
ceiving no treatment. Mr.. Gilbert
has been an employee Of the road for
nineteen years, and always gave sat
isfaction, and the officials Of the road
are doing all in their power for him.

As the train on the Southern Cali
fornia Railroad which is due in this
city from San Bernardino at 3 :35, but
owing to a delay reached here at
O'Clock last night, was approaching
the Arroyo Seco bridge, large stone
was thrown through one of the panes
of car window, striking a lady pas
senger on the shoulder. The lady
tainted from the effect of the blow
and the shock she received, and some
time elapsed before she regained her
senses. This is not the first occasion
OF such an outrage, and it is hoped
that the miscreant who was the per.
petrator of the deed may be arrested
and severely punished.

Local Riders.
The appended statement was fur

passenger business done during the
three months, September, October
and November of 1886 and 1887.
The result shows that the passenger
traffic to and from the points given
has increased 149 per cent, or that
129,362 persons more were carried
during the three months of 1887 than
during 1886. Following is the state
