The influence of the spirit Of harmony which is per
vadng the Republican party in all quarters has been
felt in the With Assembly District and its disturbing
factions have been most happily brought into concord.
This accomplished at the last meeting Of the dis
trct organization when the resignation of ex-Police

Republican County Committee and the member of the
County Executive Committee from the With was &C
ceptcd. Cornelius Donovan who as the Republl-
can candidate against John r. Fellows for Congress I'm
that district last fall and who Of the leaders of
the Carroll Donovan faction, was elected as Mr.
French's successor the County Committee, and John
c. Dodd Of the French Dodd Allen faction was chosen
10 the vacancy the Comfy Executive Committee.
This action arranges all factonal differences in the
district and makes Mr.. DOdd, who Is capable and
popular man and faithful Republican practically the

last two or three years did not live In the district and
never succeeded possessing the confidence and SYM

In the exhibition at the rooms of the
chamber of commerce is buggy top
made by an Angeleho, Thomas Kelley,
whose place of business is at the corner
of Los Angeles and Arcadia streets, up

ly performed, that the result is fine.
The top is light and airy, with beauti-
ful contour, and not a wrinkle in its sur
face. The nails are all covered with
leather; the thread is all silk, and the
stitches are closely woven, smooth and
even. The back and cushion are stuffed
with the finest hair, and the bows are
all covered with leather. The outlines,
instead of being bald and straight, are
beautifully and artistically scalloped.
and finished with nice edges. Eastern
made buggy tops, after being for weeks
in box, come out mass of unsightly
wrinkles. Ones eye delights to look
upon bit of perfect work, such as this

GONE UP IN SMOKE.
A TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLAR
FIRE LAST MIGHT.
tween Commercial and Requena Badly
Damaged-The Losses.

Quite an exciting fire disturbed the
peace and quietness of the Los Angeles
department last night. 1t was the first
fire OF any great extent in many months.
The alarm came in from box 81, and it
was soon discovered that the blaze was
in the rear OF the Lanfranco block ON
Main street, in three-story frame
building on the west side OF Los Angeles
street, between Commercial and Re-
quena streets. 1t proved to be quite a
difficult job to get to the blaze. A long
and protracted struggle followed. The
fire would not be downed, and burned
with an alarming pertinacity. Several
times it looked as ii the water had tri-
umphed, only to find that the fire had
broken out anew in another part of the
building. The stream brought in
through the rear of the Amestoy build
ing did effective work, however.
There is considerable difference of
opinion as to the exact place where the
fire started, but it appears that it began
in the rear end Of the wholesale coffee
and tea store of Henry Bartning, 215
Los Angeles street. The second floor of
this building is occupied by E. HI. Free
man, the printer, while the third story
has been empty for several months.
A HERALD reporter inspected the
building after the fire had been put out,
and found it had been badly wrecked,
especially the rear end. The damage to
the building will run all the way from
ten to fifteen thousand dollars. 1t is
owned by Messrs. Kerckhoff and Eshel-
man, and is thought to be fully Insured,
although neither of the owners could be
found last night.
The stock Of Henry Bartning was bad
ly damaged by water. Mr.. Bartning
estimates his stock and machinery at
$13, 900, which is insured for about half
that amount. The insurance will cover
the loss, however.
Freeman, the printer, is insured for
$4,000, which will more than cover the
loss.
The rear end Of the Lanfranco build
ing was scorched. The entire loss will
not exceed $4,000. Several thousand
people watched the fight against the fire
from Requena, Commercial and Los An
geles streets.

CABLE ROAD BONDS.
The San Francisco Holders Appoint
an Executive Committee.

The San Francisco Holders Appoint
an Executive Committee.
As has been stated in the HERALD,
the first mortgage bonds of the Los An
geles Cable railway are held in San
Francisco, chiefly by the Bank of Cali
fornia, and partly by private holders.
The visit of Hon. J. F. Crank to San
Francisco has been relative to these
bonds, the holders of which, owing to
the present muddle, virtually control
the road. o
The holders of these bonds met on
Friday at the San Francisco Savings
Union Office and discussed the situation,
and finally the matter was left in the
hands of committee consisting of
Lowell White, Antoine Bord and John
Mckee.
The line is now doing splendid busi-
ness: the average daily receipts far ex-
ceeding $1,000.
