The City Census

The returns for the city census con-

names secured yesterday, it was esti-
mated that up to last evening about S5,-
900 had been secured. 1t is now believed
that, unless there should be a phenom-
email falling off in the next two days,
very much below what is anticipated, the
100000 mark is safe, with a very COM
Portable margin on the right side.
The postal carriers are keeping tab on
the returns of the enumerators, and

he has thoroughly canvassed his dis
trict. 1t will probably be four or five

CAUSED MUCH COMMENT
The Report of the Grand Jury on
City Officials

The report OF the grand jury as pub
lished in the afternoon papers caused
much talk about the city hall during the
closing hours. AS the report was only
synopsized, much anxiety was manifest
ed as to the full document, and several
trips were made to the court house by
interested parties to see the original doc
ument. The report in the main deals
very leniently with the city officials. The
city engineers office is scored, but the
remarks have reference to the admin
istration of Mr.. Compton, and not Mr.
Dockweier the Democratic incumbent.
The criticism of the auditors office Is
also directed against the previous ad-
ministration, as is also that concerning
the zanjero. These are the only offices
referred to in an uncomplimentary man
ner. The heads of the other departments
were highly pleased over the pleasant
things said by the grand jury about their

TO REGULATE ELEVATORS
Councilman Hutchison to Introduce
Such an Ordinance

Councilman Hutchison thinks that
there is entirely too much carelessness
in the running of elevators throughout
the city, and that additional precautions
should be taken for the protection of life
and limb. He will accordingly at the
meeting of the city council this morning
Introduce an ordinance covering the
points that he thinks need atteneo<
The title of the ordinance is an "Ordi
nance prohibiting the running of open
elevators and prohibiting the practice of
leaving open the doors leading to ele-
vators." The ordinance provides that
It shall be unlawful for any person or
persons to run or operate any elevator
for the carriage Of persons in the city of
Los Angeles unless such elevator is
properly provided with a door or doors.

At the meeting of the board OF police
commissioners yesterday morning only
three of the members participated
Mayor Snyder and Commissioners For
man and McLain. Commissioner Preuss
IS absent in San Francisco, and Com
missioner Wyman has not sufficiently
recovered from his recent indisposltlon
to stand the excitement of board
meeting. Chief Glass was in attend
ance as usual
The proceedings were of a routine
character throughout, not ripple dis
turbing the regular transaction of busi-
ness.
The matter of police arrangements for
the Fiesta was informally discussed,
and every effort will be made to pre-
serve the peace and maintain good or
der. Thirty special officers were grant
ed stars for the water carnival at West
lake park to preserve order ana guard
the grounds from injury from the
crowds that will throng the park on
Thursday night.
On the favorable recommendation of
the chief the saloon license for
the Burbank theater was transferred
from F. H. Taggart to F. ]. Lincoln.
The application of Rudolph Calm for
a rebate on his license because he could
not open his saloon until fifteen days
after he had paid the same was referred
to the clerk to look up the action of the
board in former cases of this kind.
The application of Hobart A. Maye
to act as a special officer at the Palace
conservatory during Fiesta week was
granted. The application of w. r. Pen
man to act as special officer at the En-
porium, corner of Third and Spring
streets. was referred to the chief for in
vestigation.
The application of H. Mosback for the
transfer of the saloon license for No.
152 North Spring street from H. ]. A.
Stuhr to himself was referred to the
chief for investigation.
Arthur Let's applied for a permit to
stand his express wagon on Fourth
street just west of Broadway AL
lowed.
The permit of the owner of the wagon
which stands at the corner of Third and
Broadway opposite NJ. p. Snyders shoe
store, was forfeited as the owner had
disregarded the instructions of the po-
lice department.
The councils request that the police
commission draft an ordinance against
the flying of kites and playing ball on
public streets was referred to the city
attorney.
Chief Glass asked further time to in
vestigate the house of prostitution al
legged to exist on San Pedro street near
Second
The application of James Barnes for a
permit to have some blasting done at
the Los Angeles Iron works was refer
red to Chief Glass with power to act.

THE NEW TRUCK
A Highly Successful Test Yesterday
Morning

The new Babcock hook and ladder
truck for the fire department was tested
at the corner of Third street and Broad
way yesterday morning in the presence
of a large crowd, and was found to work
perfectly. The new three horse hitch is
a decided novelty in this city. and the
manner in which Driver Mcmahon
handled his fine team called forth many
complimentary remarks Walter Lipps,
one of the crack men of the department,
acted as foreman and manipulated the
tiller, while the movements of the crew
of eight men were directed by
Chief Moore and Assistant Ed Smith.
The truck is a remarkably easy-running
piece of apparatus, responded readily
to the slightest movement of the tiller,
and rode easily and without jar.
At Third and Broadway the truck was
run alongside the Bradbury block and
the S5-foot ladder was raised to the top
OF the building in just two minutes and
eleven seconds. Fourteen men ascend
ed the ladder in rapid succession, and as
many as eight men were supported on
the ladder at one time. with hardly a
perceptible amount of swaying or vibra-
ton.
Foreman Lipps was the first man over
the ladder, and even Chief Moore and
Assistant Smith made the ascent, much
to the qualification of the small boys in
the crowd, who highly enjoyed the spec
tacle.
The truck was manufactured by the
Fire Extingusher Manufacturing COM
pany of Philadelphia, and is one of the
hnest pieces of apparatus that company
ever turned out as it is the latest. 1t is
provided with 50-foot Bangor extern
sion ladder, in addition to the S5-foot
ladder Also with Bader Vajero smoke
protector. The total cost was s4t7O.

THE POLE QUESTION
No Permits for Additional Poles Yet
Granted

AS the amendment to the anti-pole or
dinance has not yet been published, 1t
is not yet law, and in consequence no
applications were made yesterday for
permission to erect additional poles. The
council has already granted the appli-
cation of the West Side Lighting COM
pany for permission TO erect number of
poles on Main street, and these have
been hung up" pending the action of
the mayor The city attorneys office
will draw up form of agreement for the
applicants TO sign before the permits
are granted, in line with the provisions
of the ordinance, and no permit will be
granted unless the applicant agrees over
his signature to remove the poles with
out further notice in one year from the
Sd of April 1897, failing to do which, the
city shall have the right to remove them
on the same conditions Both the men,
bers of the council and the city attorney
say that they intend to strictly enforce
the ordinance, anG everS precaution Will
be taken to see that no loophole of escape
Is left open.

ACT OF A CRAZY WOMAN,
Throws Her Children Into River and
Jumps in Herself.

ST. LOUIS, April 10.-An unknown
finely dressed woman threw two chill
dren from the ferry boat DIR. Hill into
the Mississippi River this morning and
then jumped in. The children were res
cued, but the woman was drowned
For few moments there was great
CONSERVATION on board the ferry. Pas
sengers rushed up and down the decks
in wildly excited way and the crew
did not seem to know at first what to
do.
A man who was standing near the
woman when she threw the first child
in attempted to seize her, but she elud-
ed him, and with cry tossed the child
over the side. Before anyone could stop
her she jumped into the river and
speedily drifted away. Finally, after
much trouble and delay, a boat was
lowered and pulled to the rescue of the
three people.
The woman deliberately kept her
head under the water and was drowned
before the boats could reach her The
struggles of the two children, however.
kept them afloat until they were pick
ed up. The two little ones were badly
frightened and refused to say who they
We're
The passengers say that the woman
acted Queerly when she came on the
boat and it is generally believed that
she was crazy
