The Southern Pacific Company to Build
New Ones Before Winter.
The council bridge committee yester-
day held conference with the represen-
tatives of the Santa Fe railway relative
to the bridge of that company which
crosses the river just above Buena Vista
street. The railroad officials were dis
posed to do whatever was required of
them, but it was found that the raising
of the Santa Fe bridge would necessitate
the raising OF the Buena Vista street city
bridge in order to give sufficient head
room for the locomotives. The Santa
Fe bridge is very strong one, and if it
gave way, would. as it did last winter,
do considerable damage below. Nothing
was decided upon at yesterday morn
ing's conference.
City Engineer Dockweiler yesterday
received word from the Southern Pacific
company that that company's two new
bridges across the Los Angeles river in
this city, replacing those il now has,
would be completed before winter.

THE SLAVE GIRL PICTURE
THE CHIEF DENIES THAT HE Or
DERED 1T REMOVED.
Mr.. Alter Writes Letter, Giving Diff
fsrent Version of the Matter-Chief
Glass Received No Complaints.

The following letter was received yes
terday from Mr.. Alter, who was mem
toned in yesterdays HERALD as having
been ordered to remove an alleged OBJ
scene picture from his show window ::
EDITORS Herald: l hope you will
allow me to correct statement in your
article of Yesterday on the Nude in Art,
as to the action of the police in the mat
ter. The gentlemen were in the store
when I came from lunch, and one OF
them said to me that there were
complaints made that the pic
ture in question was obscene and
should be removed, and he wanted to
see it. l showed it to them and they
both said there was nothing in 1T often
sive to them, and they did not see why
the complaint was made. I then told
them that as some of the boys had very
likely been making obscene remarks
that were offensive to the old ladies OF
both sexes, l would remove it. This
was not, as l understand it, an order
from the chief, as he says he had no
knowledge of the picture nor complaint,
Uub d udVbCI VI luquhy IdhO Wy oil Jill
Ger as to the merits of the complaint
before it would be made officially.
Respectfully Yours,
M. H. ALTER.
Mr.. Alters statement of the matter
on Monday to a HERALD reporter was
that two police officers had called and
told him that the chief had received
complaints about the picture, and
wanted him to take out. When asked
why he obeyed the order, Mr.. Alter
replied that he had decided that the
matter was not worth controversy.
The reporter was distinctly given to
understand both by Mr.. Alter and
others that the picture was removed
because of the chiefs action.
Chief Glass was seen by HERALD
reporter last evening. He said that the
first thing he knew about the picture
was when he read of it in the HERALD.
81 never saw the picture" said the
clief, land no one ever made complaint
to me about the picture. l never au-
thorized any one to take it out OF the
window"
The matter seems to rest between Mr..
Alter and Chief Glass and the two police

THE BEAR LAKE MURDER
THE MEN PHOTOGRAPHER JUST
BEFORE THE CRIME.
Jail-Accounts of the Affair Very Con-
fiicting-Garcia's Story.

Joaquin Garcia, the young Mexican
who is charged with the murder of
Steve Rogers at Bear valley on Satur-
day. was brought to San Bernardino
on Monday. He was seen in jail by a
Times-Index reporter, but refused to
say anything about the matter.
He is a determined-looking young
man, with a low forehead and mean
looking eyes, and one of whom almost
anything vicious might be expected.
He gives one the impression of relent-
less foe, and person whom one would
not look to for any of the finer qualities.
He is sullen in confinement, but for all
that has an Indifferent mien and express
sion that few men could wear under the
serious charge which hangs over him.
He is about 20 years old and his home is
at Cotton. He has been working for
CAPTAIN jerks at Bear valley for about
two and half months.
The stories told by parties from the
valley are so conflicting that it is diff
cult to get at the facts which led up to
the murder or accident. The cause of
the row-which there seems to be no
doubt occurred-was over boat. Rog-
ers and Garcia each owned boat, which
were just alike. Friday night one of
the boats got away. Garcia had the
other, which Rogers claimed as his and
demanded it. Garcia refused to give it
up. 1t is not clearly understood how
the two got out On the lake, or what
boats they used, but the two went out.
They met at point directly in range of
a camera which two photographers had
set for the purpose of taking view of
the lake, and the two men in the boat
were photographed. The boats then
disappeared around point of land, and
soon after a blow was heard. Who
struck the blow cannot be told. When
the photographers again got within
view OF the boats one was empty and
Rogers hat was floating on the lake.
Garcia's oar was broken, and there was
blood on Rogers boat. Garcia got
ashore and went to Captain Jenk's
place, where he was afterwards arrested.
Garcia's story, as told by him at the
valley, was that Rogers demanded that
he give up the boat in dispute and that
Rogers threatened to drown him if he
did not; that Rogers followed him out
on the lake. As to the encounter Gar
cia's statements were not very clear.
The body of Rogers has Dot been re-
covered, although every effort is being
made to do so. The young man was an
expert swimmer, and must have been
disabled before or soon after he struck
the water. He was a son OF Captain
Rogers, of Redlands, 20 years of age,
and the news of his sudden and violent
death was great shock to the COM
munity in whic he resided.

City Engineers Report on the
Citizens Water Company.
He Finds That the Main Pipes
Are Too Small.
A Number of Improvements Sug-
gested in the Document.
The Water should Be Fiitered-Man-
ager Kays formulating Plans for
Better Service-Councilman
Inues and His Views.

In response to request by the special
committee appointed by the council to
inquire into the reasons for the poor
supply of water furnished by the Citi-
zens' Water company, City Engineer
Dockweiler has prepared an exhaustive
report. which will be submitted to the
committee when it holds its meeting,
which will probably be today. The re-
port is as follows:
The chief cause OF the want of water
in the reservoirs of this company is that
the main pipe from the Ivanhoe reservoir
to the College street reservoir is too
small. This pipe is drawn on to supply
the district through which it passes,
and it is only the small quantity that
reaches the end of the pipe that supplies
the reservoir. To give a sufficient sup
ply at all times to the College street
reservoir twelve to thirteen-inch pipe
should be laid. No connections should
be allowed on this line; therefore, SO
long as the supply at the Ivanhoe reser-
voir lasts this pipe will discharge into
the College street reservoir at it's full
capacity. The length of this line is
about 27 900 feet. Taking the length
4 and fall of this pipe line, from the pro-
file supplied me by the Citizens Water
company, have computed the discharge
and cost of four pipes, and l also here
with give an approximate estimate OF
cost of the works of the Citizens Water
company, Los Angeles, CAL:
