From the Roof

Thomas Coyle, laboring man, fell
from the second story Of the White &
Hickson block, now in process OF con-
stiuction, into the &C liar, distance of
about thirty feet. yesterday afternoon
about O. clock. His fall was broken by
striking against one of the bracings be-
tween the ra afters on the floor below. AS
it was he sustained an ugly wound, about
six inches in length, on the back of his
head. The scalp was cut clear to the
bone and the skull was slightly cracked.
Coyle was employed wheeling bricks
from off of the elevator to the men at
work on the walls. The bricks are put
in wheelbarrows and sent up on one car
riage, while another brings down the
empty barrow. 1t is operated by horse
htched to cable running out to the
front of the building. Coyle had put one
foot on the floor of the elevator to take
hold of the loaded barrow, when one OF
the men below, thinking that the load
had been wheeled off, gave the signal to
lower. The carriage was started. and
Coyle lost his balance, pitching headlong
down the shaft. He struck the back OF
his head against one OF the cross pieces
on the lower floor. distance OF about
fifteen feet, aud then fell sideways into

found by the other men.

the injured man into an express wagon

in Coyles wound. The injured man is
past middle age, and has wife and nine
children living on Alpine street. He was
pronounced out of danger by the surgeon.

WHY THE HOUSE is WANTED
The City Pays $6OS a Month for Engine
House Purposes
Which Amount Is Equal to Four ana ohes
Half Per Cent Upon $I67,I33.33 i.3
Per Year

The special committee of the board OF
fire commissioners re Gently appointed for
the purpose will next Monday go before
the council for the purpose Of impressing
unon that body the necessity OF providing
funds for the building OF an engine house
at or near the vicinity OF Broadway and
Second street. An appropriation of $4,000
is to be requested for the purpose.
The city at present does not own any
engine house property, and engine COM
pany No. 2 end chemical No. l will soon
be without house. A truck house is also
very badly needed.
The city Is at present paying $6Os a
month rentals COR engine house purposes,
as follows: On Main street, near the
plaza, $100; on Third street, near MAJ
$75; on Sixteenth near Grand avenue, $50;
on Main and Twenty third, $40; on Sec
ond street, Boyle Heights, $50; on Temple
street, near Edgeware road, $50; on
Ninth street above Main. $50; on Spring
street. near Fifth, $50; at the rlaza. $50; on
Griffin avenue. East Los Angeles, $50; on
Pico street. near Starr, $35; on Central
avenue and Twelfth street. S2S.
The above aggregate $7296 year, being
the interest at Al per cent uron $780,
1873. 80 1-3. The value of all of the prop
critics included above will not exceed $780,
600.
Chief Walter s. Moore figures it that
were the city to issue bonds for $780, 600,
which is all the money needed for the
purpose. the engine houses would at the
present rentals paid to private parties,
all be paid for inside of ten years. AS it
IS, the city, while constantly paying out
money. has absolutely nothing at any
time to show for ITS expenditures.
The mayor believes that a central en-

lizing, however. only the rear portion os
the property for the purpose, ana retain.
ing the park features of the front half of
the lot. He is also in favor of a building,
the upper portion of which should be
used for library purposes. The present
library quarters are fast being outgfown
by the general growth of the city, and
more library room will have to be sup.
piled at very early day.

THE COMMITTEE UP A TREE
Short Session Of the Howard Inquiry
Yesterday
The Accused Street Superintendent Demands
A Copy Of the Charge Against Him.
Another Session This forming

The very remarkable investigation into
the condition of the street superintend-
ent's office, as affairs are there being
I conducted by the present umbent, was
continued for a short time Yesterday
m orning. Il. Nelson, an employee OF the
partment, testified to an acquaintance
with Perry A. Howard, but knew moth
ing to the street departments official dis
credit. d. Il. McKillip, who owns the
boating privileges at Westlake park, was
as man he saw in the vicinity OF the
Dodd lots which have not been pur-
chased by the city for school house pur-
poses. 1t was stated by Howard during
the alleged Kingery bribery charges. that
he had never been on the property ana
did not at the time know where it was
Howard at this point objected very
warmly to this phase of the inquiry being
re-opened. He also complained some-
what bitterly of the whole method OF pro-
cedure uf the investigation. He was not
ton, he said, but thought that the least
the committee could do was to give him
a copy of any charges which might be
made against him. SO that lie could prop
erly defend himself. This the commit
tee had so far failed to do.
deputy Clty Attorney lnOmaS anu
President Teed both thought that wit
nesses VINO knew anything derogatory to
Howard ought first to be privately aues-
toned as to what specifically they could
tell the committee. Unless this were
done the committee might remain in ses-
sion Indefinitely and develop nothing.
Mr.. Thomas had been summoned to Off
cially prosecute the inquiry, but had to
give up the task at an early stage In the
proceedings.
The committee finally adjourned to
some sort of an intelligent plan of cam
paign will either have been agreed upon
or the investigation will close and the in
vestigatng committee Will report to the
council the entire failure of its mission.
OF the four witnesses subpoenaed to at
tend the investigation yesterday, only
two responded to the summons.

1t is fact not to be noted without re-
gret that one of the largest cloth ing
houses in this city is going out of busi-
ness. This is not done because of a lack
of business, or lack of money, but be-
cause they must give up the store thew
occupy. owing to the expiration of their
lease and their lanlordds refusing to re-
new it. Some other firm has secured the
store and intends opening shoe store
there.

RUNAWAY HORSES
It Was by Far rlore Startling Than 1t Was
Serious

1t Was by Far nore Startling Than 1t Was
Serious
Yesterday afternoon two sedate looking
horses were being led along Broadway by
a man. Although harnessed, no vehicle
trundled at their heels. Nearing Third
street, the brutes decided to have a little
fun. In order to do so they felt that they
must get rid OF the restraining hand at
the bit. They did this by running away.
and the spontaneity with which both of
them got into the jump, and the unanim-
ity with which they kept together and
turned east on Third, lends color to the
belief that they premedtated the circus
whicn quickly followed.
linn ediately in front of The Herald
business office the one on the near side
gave prodigious whisk of the tail and
startled other passing horses and the
hundreds of hmuan beings watching the
galloping steeds, by turning complete
somersault. Brass bands may hereafter
come and brass bands may go. but this
will always remain the one most unique
and remarkable of salutes paid to great
newspaper office.
The ott er horse continued its mad run
as far as Spring street, where was pass
ing q light wagon. To see it was to act.
With snort and a idelong kick the ami
NAL landed squarely upon its four feet in
the wagonbed and surveyed the scene
around with look of ineffable satisfac-
tion. So proud was the brute of its ac-
mplishment and 70 infatuated was it
with its position that it positively refused
to come down off the ''perch" when
prodded by the owner of the wagon, who
feared that the light affair would momen-
tarily 60 to pieces under the unusual
load.
All efforts failing to dislodge the ami
NAL, the crowd which had ga thered ar
ranged itself along one side OF the wagon
and lifted it. When the latter had
reached an angle of about 55 degrees. the
silly brute consented to be spilled out
upon the sidewalk. 1t was then led away
with Its fellow, who had quietly submit
ted to capture after his marvellous act
on Third street. and when last seen the
two we're comparing notes. Neither horse
was hurt.
