THE COUNCIL.
A Special Meeting Held Yesterday
Morning.

Aspecial meeting of the Council was
held yesterday morning at IL O'Clock,
President Franksnfield in the chair, and
Messrs. Wirsching, Summerland, Nc
Lain, Hamilton, Brown and Shafer pres
emit.
The Clerk stated that the meeting had
been called for the purpose OF passing
upon a recommendation of the Joint
Committee on School Sites and ordering
advertisements for proposals to build
school houses, 30 that all the bids might
be obtained by week from Monday.
The report of the Joint Committee on
School Sites was then read. 1t recon-
mended that the Clerk be instructed to
advertise for bids for the construction OF
buildings as follows: Tworoom building
in the Ella Hills tract, four-room building
on Thomas and Vignes streets, four-room
building at Alpine and Deepwater streets,
four-room building on Beaudry street,
near Second, eight room building on
Ninth and Stanford streets, two-room
building on First and Savannah streets,
and four-room building on Cornwall
and Grant streets.
The report also recommended that
bids for each building be aeked on the
plans of all the architects whose plans
had been adopted.
Quite long discussion followed the
reading of the report as to the advisa-
bility Of asking for bids on all of the
architects plans. 1t was suggested that
the plans of the building to go on
each site could be picked out be-
fore bids were asked, but Mr.. Pomeroy
and others held that it was probable that
the most expensive plan would be picked
out in each instance, and in that case
the amount to be expended might be ex-
cseded and another advertisement might
be necessary. II the bids were asked on
all the plans it would be possible to
select the best that could be built for the
money to be expended.
1t was finally decided to advertise for
the construction of the two-room build
ings on the plans of Messrs. Burton,
Haas and Forsythe; of the fourroom
buildings on the plans Of Mesars. Burton,
Coxhead and Brown, and of the eight
room building on the plan of Mr.. Burton.
The meeting then adjourned.

THE SALVATION ARMY RIOT.
IL Again Nearly Causes a Serious
Accident.

IL Again Nearly Causes a Serious
Accident.
The Salvation Army continues to make
record for itself as a disturber of the
peace and reckless cause Of accidents.
Yesterday evening as they were parading
one Of the principal streets, beating
drums and bowling songs, they fright
ened the horse attached to the buggy
containing well-known newspaper man
and his wife. The animal started to run
away, and SHE'D upon the sidewalk.
Luckily the wheel of the buggy caught
on hitching post, and although the
vehicle was very nearly overturned, a
serious accident was averted.
Several members of the army saw the
performance and cheered and otherwise
exhibited satisfaction ut the accident
which they had caused. The man who
was beating the drum turned with q grin
and pounded away all the more vieor-
ously while the frightened horse was
jumping about.
1t is only a question of time when the
nocturnal vagsries of this organization
will cause a serious accident OF some
kind. The police force declares itself
unable to prevent the professions, al
though they have been stopped in several
other cities Of the State by ordinance and
the statutes.

THE NEW ROAD.
Its Route from 1arstow-A Union
Depot Here.


Depot Here.
Some very important information with
regard to the exact route and plans OF
the Utah Central extension to this CITY
has been obtained by the HERALD and ia
now for the first time made public. 1t
comes through thoroughly reliable chan
nels, and may be depended upon as
being az authentic az any information
not actually official can be.
Some doubt has existed all along with
regard to the place where the extension
was to meet the Santa Fe route, and
what it's plans were to be in the matter
of getting into this city. The new road
will meet the Santa Fe at Barstow.
From Barstow to San Bernardino, dis
lance of eighty miles, the Santa Fe track
will be used. This part of the line runs
through strip of territory that is abso-
lutely devoid of local traffic,
and no road would lay track
If 1T could make any kind of
an arrangement to avoid the
expense. The Union Pacific will Join
with the Santa Fe in Strengthening this
portion OF the track and putting it in
shape to bear the increase of traffic. By
this arrangement the question of how to
get through the San Bernardino noun
tains is solved, az the two roads will
both make use Of the Cajon Pass.
From San Bernardino to Los Angeles
new line will be built. 1t will lie to the
south of the Southern Pacific, and will
take in the Chino ranch, the Puente
and the Laguna. This will make four
very nearly parallel lines, the San
Gabriel through line of the Santa Fe,
the Southern Pacific, the new line Of the
Utah Central extension and the Orange
connecting line OF the Santa Fe. Just
outside of the city limits, at the south
east corner of the city, the new line will
strike the line of the Santa Fe, and will
enter the city over the same bridges as
the Santa Fe, and the two roads will
make use OF Union depot.
This is the plan as outlined by those
who claim to know the nature Of the con-

JOHN E. BALTIMORE.
A Person of Color Charged with the
Crime of Perjury.

Crime of PeTjury.
The trial Of John E. baltimore, who is
charged with the crime Of perjury, was
begun yesterday before Judge Cheney.
The story is this: For a year or more,
a couple of years ago, the country along
the upper MEGA OF the San Gabriel valley
was terrorized by frequent incendiary
fires. Hay stacks and barns were set on
fire, and in one case fne residence,
that Of Hon. A. B. Chapman, was dis.
covered to be ia flames just in time to
cave 1t. Suspicion rested on baltimore
as the dangerous person who was en-
gagged in this nefarious work. The negro
was brought to trial on the charge Of
arson. He WAS acquitted of the charge,
his own testimony playing very ma
terial part in securing this result. In the
testimony so given it is alleged that
baltimore committed perjury. The
effort of the prosecution in the arson
case was to show that baltimore bore i'll
will to the people whose property was
burned. The effort of the defense was,
Of course, to prove that this was not so,
and further to show that there were
others in the neighborhood who did bear
lll-will to these persons. baltimore
swore that he bore no ill-will to A. B.
Chapman, but that one or two other
persons in the neigh borhood had grudgss
against that gentleman. baltimore is
said to have specifically sworn that a
foreman Of Mr.. Chapman who had been
discharged month prior to the firing OF
his property YVES very bitter against his
former employer. In point of fact the
foreman in question was not discharged
until month after the fire in question.
Here is the basis for the suit, and many
people in that part Of the valley are
deeply interested in the result of the
trial

Mills Davies, G. a. Stilson, Colonel @.

D. Innes, E. E. Galbreth and B. P.
Ward.
1t was found that the Pacific Cable
Company was constructing it's track
across the Aliso-street bridge at the eide
of the street, and it was decided to notify
the company to have it built in the mid
de of the street.
1t was also decided TO order the people
who have not built sidewalks on Buena
Vista street to construct them.
The water-hole at the junction of
Bunker Hin avenue and Pearl was in
spected, and il was decided to drain it by
constructing pipeline to Temple street.
1t was also decided to order Figueroa
street graded between Temple street and
Bellevue avenue, and thus relieve Cum
nings avenue Of water.
The City Engineer will be
instructed to fix the grades Of
Bellevue avenue and Holiday street,
and also the intersection with Fdgeware
road. The petition OF J. V. Newton to
be allowed to put in cement curling in
stead OF redwood will also be granted,
as also will the petition of property OWE
ers to grade Bixell street, between Third
and Arnold.
The petition Of X. Cohn ct ell. to be al
lowed to lower the granite blocks on
Main street and coat them with btu
minous lime rock will also be granted

wheeling Will Take his Sentence.

Yesterday was set for passing sentence
on Wayne o. Wheeling, convicted of
the unlawful killing of William Tweedy.
When the hour arrived Wheeling'a at.
torneys again asked for delay in passing
sentence. This is the second petition for
delay in this matter. The attorneys
stated that If this motion were granted
they would waive the right to make a
motion for q new trial and let sentence
be passed next Monday. The motion
was granted. 1t is little blind to out
siders why this delay is asked for if. no
new trial is to be demanded. Specula-
ton is rife as to what Wheeling's sem
tence is to be. Tho general opinion is
that he is wise in taking the verdict of
the jury, which is only manslaughter,
with q recommendation to leniancy at
the hands Of the Court Wheeling will
get from three to six years; that means
Two to four years Of actual incarceration.
He may actually get off with only a
couple Of years.

Makes Et Lively for the County
Clerk,

The changing of the indictments
against the Edelmans and Montafio
makes very lively times for the County
Clerk. Every Indictment found necessi-
tstes the making out of four papers by
the Clerk. AS the Grand Jury the day
before yesterday returned sixteen new in
dictments, all embracing the same SUBJ
ject matter, here WAS little bunch OF
sixty four papers to make out. This is
the third or fourth attempt to draw in
dictmente that would hold these sup.
posed offenders, and the total amount OF
writing inflicted on the Clerks office is
no bagatelle.

We are winning new trade every
day with our rightly-made clothing;
made this season better than ever
before. Nobody does, nobody can
make better. Facts we find it best to
even increase the cost of garment
slightly if thereby the quality Of fabric,
trim and make is so enhanced as to
render perfectly acceptable service.
Nobody objects to paying SIS to $50
for really good suit or Overcoat.
Ours must be just right, otherwise
you are expected to bring them back
at any time; which means that we
assume all the risk. In sense, we
take your money on trust. If the
clothes give full value in wear we keep
the money; if they 90 wrong we re-
fund it. We can afford to deal in this
liberal way only because so few Of our
