NINTH STREET ELECTRIC LINE
The Rails Being Laid as Rapidly as
Possible
General Manager Wood VIII Rush the Placing
of the 1achinery in Order to
Open January Ist

Work is being vigorously pushed upon
the Ninth street branch OF the Los An.
ge.es electric railway and everything will
be done to bring tbs affair to quick com
pletion. The expiration of the franchise
has nothing to do with the hurrying of
thework. but the road Will be completed
as quickly as possible in order not to de-
ay the opening OF the rest OF the lines
now being built or reorganized.
General Manager Wood has received a
telegram stating that the sixty-pound
rails ordered would be rolled today and
shipped tomorrow. These rails are of a
special pattern, being six inches deep
and five ana haif inches in width on
the base. All rails ordered are in sixty
foot lengths, these being the first rails
shipped to the coast of length over
thirty feet. These exceptionally long
rail, having fewer joints, will take a very
smooth trackway.
The nav cars ordered will all conform
to one of the three patterns last adopted.
The large cars will be 'hirty-two feet
long, With platforms protected by glass
fronts. A smaller model OF these cars
has been ordered with single track, the
platforms protected as in the larger ones.
These cars will be t~enty-six feet long.
The third model will be tire light. open
style, similar to those now in use on the
Arcade uepot branch. In all there will be
about forty new cars put on and Mr..
Wood is curry expecting advices to the
effect that they have been shipped.
The new Ii. achinery IS now partly in
position, the S00.horse power Corliss COM
pound engine being now on the bed. the
1200-horse power j.. z. Allis engine will
be one Of the finest pieces of machinery
that has ever been built in this country
Mr.. Wood hopes to have all the machin-
cry in place by the first day of next year
The Improvement in service will be most
marked, and in the case Of the newly
laid line, very different roadbed will
be noticeable. The route Of the new
Ninth street branch will be up Spring to
Fifth. to Olive. to Sikh. to Pearl, to
Ninth and then out to Grandyiew ave-
nue.. The last part vi the road follows
the line of the mule cars that were run
nlng up TO short time ago.

PASADENA, Dec. 6.-The long ex-
pected decision of Judge Smith in the
Fluke case, which, it will be remem-
5ered, was brought up on habeas corpus
proceedings to test the validity of ordi-
nance 900, was finally reached today and
the ordinance is sustained. After Fluke
had been convicted of violating the ordi-
nance in selling liquors, Judge Hester
brought habeas corpus proceedings in the
interest OF his client, bringing up several
points against the validity or the ordi-
nance. Some of these points are not
entered into at all in the decision. Judge
Smith d oes not take up the question OF
the validity of the proceedings under
which the ordinance was adopted, hold
ing that it would not be proper to go into
that except upon appeal. Nor does he
pass upon the regularity Of the recorders
docket.
One of the chief points brought up was
the claim that the ordinance is unreas-
enable in that it prescribes the hours and
the price of meals to be served by res
taurants, as we'll as that 1t seeks to make
restaurants places of ike character with
that of tipping houses, bars, etc. pom
It's point Judge Smith holds that orci-
nance No. 900 is reasonable in its provis-
ions and that its inhibition OF the sale of
liquor applies to any place where it is
sold, as we'll as to bar rooms, tipping
houses, etc.
The matter is to be appealed to the SUI
preme court. Meanwhile the friends OF the
ordinance are greatly pleased al this de-
cision and expect that it will stand the
test Of the supreme court as we'll.
