WAS A MASS OF FLAMES
Jack Riley Has a Narrow Escape
From Death
He Caught Fire From an Exploded Coal Oil
Stove, but Was Rescued-Brave
Act OF Fisherman

Through the explosion OF coal oil
stove last night, shortly before o'clock, a
m an was terribly burned and now lies at
the receiving hospital under the care of
Drs. Bryant and A insworth.
He claimed to the people shout the
police station that his name was John
Walsch, but during his residence here of
year OF more past he has been known to
trends as JACK Riley, and the latter is
probably correct.
The place where the explosion occurred
is at 50z East First street, and was used
as a cigar stand and poker room 1t was
owned by man named L. Percy, who
employed Riley. The latter looked after
the trade and slept in the poker room
Immediately in the rea- OF the cigar
stand. Riley had been drinking and last
night retired earlier tnan usual. After
making his cot on the floor he removed
all of his clothes except his undergar-
ments and then started to light the oil
stove. but his hand was unsteady and he
probably upset the thing, causing the oil
to explode. In an instant he was in
mass of flames, and rushing about the
room to escape and endeavoring to ey-
tiDguish the fire.
The noise of the explosion aroused the
meE IN the saloon next door on the cor
ner of Alameda street. They ran out,
ana ii. Christensen, a fisherman fro N Re-
condo, hurried into the cigar store and
broke open the door leading to where
Riley was burning. Christensen heroicallv
jumped past the circle of flames and had
Riley in his arms and out Oh the pave
ment withi2 an instant. The flames had
done their work on Riley, though, and
as ne was carried to an adjoining porch.
the skin peeled off him. He had been
burned on both arms from above the
elbows down to his finger ends, and on
his limbs from the knees down, includ-
ing his feet. His head was also burned.
A coat was hastily got to put over him
as he was practically without any cover
ing whatever. lie was removed TO the
receiving hospital as soon as the patrol
wagon arrived. The fire department was
summoned aid soon had the fire put out
The loss is $500. covered by insurance.
At a late hour Riley was resting easily
and he was thought TO be out OF danger.

Land Committee Recommends a
New Election.
POLITICS IN ANNEXATION
Those Favoring the Greater City Have
Made a Mistake
Councilman Kingery Has Received an Anony-
nous Communication Which Prophe-
sises Another Defeat

tinge OF political feeling has finally
been allowed to enter into the question
of the proposed Greater Los Angeles. and
as a result the coming annexation cleo
ton may not so as the friends of the
idea would wish. Just who is response bic
for the politics which have been inter-
lectcd no one appears to know Chairman
J. Is. NevelIe of the annexation commit
tee denies that he ever said that Council
man Thomas Savage of the land commit
lee was opposing the calling of second
election because the territory to be an
nexed contains too many Repu blicans
Savage has always favored annexation,
and Nevelle deplores the adverse publica-
tions which have been made in the mat
ter concerning the councilman from the
Eighth ward. The land committee yes
terday filed the following:
To the Honorable Council OF the City OF
Los Angeles
Gentlemen Your land committee beg
leave to report In the matter OF the
petition from W. G.. Cochran ct al, ask
ing that an election be called to vote
upon the question of annexing certain
lands to the city of Los Angeles, which
lands are described in the said petition,
that said communication represents more
than one-fifth of the qualified electors
voting at the last general municipal ele-
ton. and therefore recommend that said
petition be granted and the city attorney
instructed to prepare and present the
necessary ordinance. provided tho pc
titioners asking for the holding of such
election pay onehalf of the expenses
to be incurred thereon.
Captain Neville said yesterday that the
expense of the last election was not
more than $500 and that he had no doubt
that for the coming election the various
judges and inspectors in the several an
neSed districts would all of them agree
to serve without COMPENSATION from the
CITY.
The anti-annexationists are not idle.
Councilman S. NJ. Kingery yesterday
The herald., 1895-12-01
received the following through the

mails:
LOS ANGELES, Nov. %, 1895:
To the Honorable Members Of the City
Council:
Allow a citizen to inquire II, besides
depicting the city treasury, ii is consist
emit with your duty TO encourage q disre-
gard tor one Of our fundamental princi.
pies of popular governmen namely, the
rule of the majority. A certain ring is
trying to set at naught the will OF the
majority which it certainly could not do
without the sanction of your honora BILE
body, and it will only have the effect OF
exasperating the minds OF the people
whose will is disregarded and make the
seconu defeat much more pronounced
one. The financial conditions are not
such as to encourage change. The
people are not earning barely enough to
live on If spite OF the great building boom,
the contractors with very few exceptions
are about as bad off as the wage earners.
When times become more prosperous it
will then be thine to try the experiment
of annexation with some chance OF sue
cess, but a greater defeat will be the re-
suit, hecanse the am bltious aims OF the
ring have been uumasked. City offices,
that is what troubles them. One who
has closely studied this movement.

Some of our people are discour-
aged because there is not more
building going on here this season.
Point Pleasant has been doing fairly
well in the building line for sever
years past; and this summer some
splendid and costly buildings have
been erected, and a number are
now in the course of construction.
1t must be borne in mind that the
panic through which the town and
its people have passed, does not
disappear in a single day, nor even
a year, but it is slowly disappear
ing and people are beginning to
erect buildings, and thereby put
ting their money in circulation.
Don't be discouraged, Point Pleas
ant has a bright future before it.
Pin your faith to the old town, stay
with it, stick to her, and you will
not regret it.
