done, but when the, package arrived and
was opened it proved to be the property OF
Mr.. Donegan the well-known contractor.
/ Now, this package was on its way back to
this city for my inspection before any
human being on the detective force knew
anything about it. Goodman, who had the
matter in charge, admits this. There's nc
getting away from the fact that they have
handled my case poorly and bunglingly--
most miserably indeed. The burglars we're

stands and saloons and the detectives

| STATEMENTS CARRY WEIGHT
| Major Truman Is we'll known and re-
spected citizen, and every statement that
he makes can be relied upon.
This case is really one of the most re-
| Inarkable that has been developed in a

he bought it. 1t certainly would have been
a very easy matter to have taken the stone
while the police had it and before it was
purchased by an innocent man to Major
Truman and had him pass upon its owner
ship. But this was not done. Major Tru-
man never saw the diamond for Identifica-
ton until the thief who sold it was we'll out
of the country, and then it is brought to
him by a police detective named Good
man. ir--.,.' .4.''
HAVE NOT BEEN BOTHERED.
The truth of the matter is that during
the past winter burglars and confidence
men have operated in Los Angeles with
more than normal success, and the police
have certainly winked at the skin games
that have been played.
There is an establishment on Spring
street where the unwary have been trapped
daily and relieved of all they had by means
of various games known to the knights of
the green cloth.
1t has all along been hInted that this es-
tablishment kept in touch with the police
powers of the city through an eX.detective
on the police force who it is said has
acted as go between and carried the coin,
something like $500 per week.
BIG DIVIDE
The people who run the house are dead
game sports and could easily afford to put
I'D $500 per week to conduct what they are
running without bothersome police inter
ference, for the regular profits of the house
are from $4,000 to ST., 900 per month.
The relationship between certain high up
police officials and the eX-detective, sup.
posed to be the go between, is very close.
CONFIDENCE MEN o. X.
Not a single confidence operator worthy
of the name of being smooth man has
been nipped in Los Angeles this season.
Several very clever jobs have been reported
to the police. The kickers have been sent
away with the advice to keep still.
And so it goes.

THEY'RE OFF FOR PHOENIX
Merchants Association Party
Leaves This Morning
A MIDWINTER CARNIVAL
Is the Maguet That Draws the Delega'
tiOn OF Solid Men
a 1sjority OF the City Counoiim.n Will Also
Go, Thereby Officially Representing
the City Of Los Angeles

The Merchants association excursion

place on Friday, arriving in this city the
following day. A large tent has been sent
on to the territorial carnival city which will
be used as headquarters for the party
The large and handsome banner that was
presented by the ladies of Los Angeles to
the fiesta committee is too large an affair
to be carried at the head of the Los Angeles
delegation Ill the carnival procession, but
it is destined to do noble duty, neverthe-
less, for it will be planted just in front of
the canvas headquarters. The party will
take with them also the famous stuffed
bear and this, decorated with pampas
plumes will be borne in the procession and
of course at the head OF the Los Angeles
division, by four OF the biggest Indians that
dollars and smiles could engage for the
service.
Mayor RAIDER had intended accompany
ing the party, but his illness prevents this.

cially at the carnival by five councilmen,
which delegation forms a majority of the
council Those representing the munich
pality are Councilmen Stockweli, kingery,
