THEY WANT MORE LAND.

Usual Demands APP
proved.

The park commissioners held meet
ing yesterday. Present: Messrs. Hub.
bell, Cross, Pinney and Atesmer; Judge
Hubbell presiding.
Frank Wiggine addressed letter to
the board on behalf of the chamber of
commerce, asking for suitable plants to
decorate the interior of the Southern
California building at the midwinter
fair. The request was granted and the
matter placed in the hands OF Superin-
tendent LIE Grand.
The following resolution was adopted
and ordered sent to the city council:
"Whereas, Elysian park at the pres
ent time is irregular in shape, and the
land adjoining the park 10 now compar-
alive worthless and has but little value !;
and
"Whereas, The improvement of Ely
sian park is enhancing the value OF all
lands contiguous thereto; and
"Whereas, 1t is necessary, in order to
fully develop and improve Elysian park,
that lots 5, 6 and z, block 49, lot 8,
block AZ, and lots 2. 3 and OF Hancock g
survey should be added thereto; now,
therefore.
Resolved. That the council of the
city OF Los Angeles be requested to take
the necessary steps to have said lots
condemned, and such other proceedings
that said lots be added to Elysian park
as part thereof.
"NoTE-The park commissioners be-
ing desirous of informing the council
that the present road, known as the
Burro trail, passes over lot 5, block AZ,
Hsncock's survey, and is the only ac-
cessible way of getting through this
park, would further state that the park
commissioners have communicated with
the owners of lots above described, and
find it impossible and impracticable
to procure said lots at the prices asked
for the same."l
There are about 225 acres lying almost
in the center of the park owned by L.
w. Hellman, George Hansen, l.. and J..
Garibaldi, H. w. Keller and A. Solano.
Repeated attempts have been made to
get prices on this land, which the COM
missioners consider reasonable for the
city to pay, but NO offer lower than
$l2 900 for 35 acres could be obtained.
The commissioners therefore urge con-
demnation proceedings under the law of
eminent domain. They believe that

long time to rival the famous Golden
Gate perk of San Francisco.
The pay roll for December ($2568) aud
a number of demands were approved.
Bills amounting to $578.34 were referred
to the auditing committee.
The report of the city engineer re-
garding fill for dam in Hollenbeck park

tions adopted and the work ordered
done.
The action of the secretary in COM
municating with the City Water COM
pany regarding connecting of Elysian

The secretary was instructed to ask

sUssKIND VS.. CLINE.
Judge Mckinley Decides m Tnterestini

Lawsuit.
Judge Mckinley rendered decision
yesterday morning in the case brought
by Henry Susskind against John @.
Cline, sheriff, to recover $40, 900 worth
of diamonds, findings and judgment
being ordered for A. F. Hall, the as
signee and intervenor, fort possession
OF the property, and for the defendant
Cline for bis costs.
This case has attracted the attention
OF dealers in diamonds and jewelry, not
only on the coast but the leading mer-
chants in that line in New York, and has
come to be known in this community as
one Of the celebrated cases.
In September, 1892, Mrs. L. M. Wag-
ner fled her petition in insolvency and
was adjudged an insolvent. The as
signee took possession of the goods that
could then be found, amounting to about
$4,000 in value, and sold the same to
Henry Susskind, distributed the pro-
ceeds and obtained his discharge. The
creditors, suspeeting that large quaint
ity OF goods had been concealed. waited
until the goods were brought from their
hiding place and put in the store with
the goods of Mr.. Susskind. They then,
through their attorneys Graf & Latham,
commenced an attachment proceeding
in order to get possession of the same,
took an inventory of the goods-which
amounted to $27 ,000-and through the
assignee claimed that they were part of
the goods OF the insolvent estate which
Henry Sueskind and Wagner had con-
spired to conceal for the purpose of de-
irauding the creditors of L. Nj. Wagner.
The trial consumed the greater portion
OF two weeks, and the argument was
concluded q week ago last Saturday.
Yesterday morning Judge Mckinley,
before whom the case was tried, ordered
indings and judgment for possession of
the goods, to be entered in favor of A. l.
Hall as assignee, and further judg-
ment in favor of J. G. Cline, the sheriff,
who had taken possession of the goods
under writ of attachment against Mrs.
L. NJ. Wagner, for his costs and lis
bursements in defending the suit against
Henry Susskind.

-Four or five times"
In reference to the leper witness said
DR.. Brainard had allowed the man to
sleep in one OF the wards but DIR. Hagan
had separated him from the other
patients.
Mr.. York-"Did Mrs. Landt ever give
yon anything?''
"Yes. sir. She gave me some under
clothes, but she gave me nothing as re-
ward for coming here"
Mr.. York-'Are you not satisfied with
what you get at the hospital? Do you
not get all you want to eat2"
"Yes."
Mr.. York-"Are you ever served with
eggs ?"
"Yss. saw an egg there the other
day."
Mr.. Hay--"What? One egg on the

''No, one egg for each patient"
TO VISIT THE HOSPITAL.
Mr.. Dillon asked for permission to
take three depositiops, Mrs. Kelly, Mrs.
Brown and J. Wslling, all OF whom are
too sick to attend this trial in person.
Mr.. York said he had no objection to
the depositioas. but he wanted all the
evidence OF the prosecution to be gotten
in before the defense opened their testi-
mony.
Mr.. Dillon now moved the board 90
over to the hospital to see those pa
tients while talking to them in relation
to the occurrences. The proposition
was objected to by Mr.. York, who lives
in Pasadena and was afraid OF missing
his train.
The prosecuting attorney said he had
been obliged to put in his testimony and
would take his own way of getting it in.
So he moved the board 60 to the county
hospital at once.
The proposition was objected to by
Mr.. York, but DIR. Hagan wanted the
matter disposed of at once, go they ad-
journed till this morning at 10 O'Clock.

THE WATER CO1PAWY.
How It Cas Earn Large D:vi-

Rates Cue.Ealf.

In comparing the water rats le We'd
here with those in other mining re
g g.ons, the other day. no mention was
made of something that should tend
t. make the rates h, re even lower
than they are else where.
In all cities and towns where wat.-
IL supplied by u corporation. the lat,
ter owns the servi... pipes, as we'll as
the mains. In this city the company
does not own the service pipes. They
are ow:~d by the houseowners. A.
the cost OF these varies from $50 to
$50 in each case, it is but fair that
with money worth u per cent. pei
month here, the wAt~. company
should make an additional reduction
because OF the cost Of laying and
maintaining service pipes.
Another point that should bs con.
sidered in fixing the rates. is the low
cost OF the water to the ,mpr Y
