A LIVELY scRAPPING MATCH
Takes Place on a Prominent Street In
Los Angeles.


Los ANGELES, March 3l.-A lively
scrapping match took place this morning
on the corner of Sixth and Main streets.
John Mitchell Jones. an attorney. came
out second best. In fact, Jones was not in
the fight at any point The party who
bested Jones was Emil Perret. The
trouble is said to have come about by
Jones passing some uncomplimentary re-
marks about Perret. Some time ago
Jones officiated as an attorney for Perret
in the foreclosure of certain mortgage.
His manner of doing business was not
liked by his client and he was dropped.
This made him hot, and it is said Jones
called upon the wife of Perret and en-
deavored to poison her mind against her
husband. This morning Perret met him
for the first time and lost no time in call
ing him to account. 1t is stated upon
good authority that Jones will be unable
to appear in public for several days.
