THE BALLoNA RAILROAD CASE.

The Plaintiff Amends Its Complaint and
the Case is Continued.
The trial of the suit of the Ballona
Harbor Improvement company vs.. The
Southern California Railway company,
to restrain it from further tearing up of
its track on the Ballona line, was not re-
sumed as expected yesterday morning,
except for a short time. When the case
was called Mr.. Murphy, counsel for the
plaintiff, asked leave to amend the
amended complaint, which We granted
by Judge Shaw.
He then put in quite an extended
amendment, which was to the effect
that in the agreement made by the
Riverside, Santa Ana and Los Angeles
Railway company, when it was agreed
to build the road, it was further agreed
that in the event that the defendant
corporation should offer the railroad for
sale at any time the plaintiff should
have the refusal of it at the price for
which it should be offered.
The amendment also recites that ever
since the date of the agreement and up
to the present time the plaintiff has
been willing and able to purchase the
road and pay a reasonable sum for it /;
that the defendant has never offered it
for sale, and if the ties and rails are
taken up it will cause the road to de-
crease in value.
Judge Brunson asked and was granted
10 days. time in which to answer the
amendments.

feeble his son persuaded him that he
would take care of him and provide for
all his needs If he would deed him his
ranch of l06 acres in this county. The
old man did 80, and alleges that after
that his son and his sons wife began a
systematic course of abuse and bad
treatment. Some of the treatment de-
scribed by Mr.. Jamison beg
gars description, such as allow
ing him to 60 for long time
in filthy condition, making no pro-
vision for his clothes being cleaned, and
indulging in process of nagging which
made his life miserable. While relating
the ill treatment he received the old
man occasionally broke into tears which
were pitiful to behold. His daughter,
Mrs. Redwine, finally was appointed his
guardian, and he is now living with her.

with pretty homes and heavily laden
fruit trees, and is one of the choice bits
of Pasadena. Many of those who own
property there bought with the inten-
tion of passing the remainder of their
lives in the beautiful location, and the
money they have put into the beautify-
ing of their homes does not by any
means represent the value to them of
their property.
And now, after remaining in undis-
puted possession for number of years,
these claimants come along with claim
which they seem to think has much
legal merit. The property owners,
naturally enough, feel that having paid
once for their lots they should be pro-
tected in their rights, and that no mere
legal technicalities should be allowed by
the courts to dispossess them of their
own.

From that time until 1888 nothing
more was heard from the original par
