NO NEW PEST HOUSE
Financial Conditions Prevent a Much
Needed Public Work

As badly as the city needs new pest
house, one cannot be secured at the pres
ent time because Of the condition Of mu-
nicipal finances. The matter came up
for discussion at the meeting of the
finance committee yesterday afternoon,
although it was not before them for &C.
ton. having been referred to the build
ing committee.
It was admitted that the present con-

dition Of the pesthouse was such that
it was hardly fit for use and that the
need Of new one was great, but it is
impossible to build now. for the reason
that all the available cash has been di-
vided among the several appropriations
and it is now too late to make any ex-
penditure for the erection Of new
building.
Next year when the budget is made up
provision will be made for new house.
The present site is not to be used, as that
neighborhood is becoming thickly set
tied. The new structure will be erected
on city land at some remote point, and
its construction will be under the super
vision Of the board of health. In ,he
meantime the present quarters will have
to be used If the necessity arises.

Disposition Of Lights

Since 1t became known that each Of
the wards was to have ten additional
electric lights under the new contract
about to be let by the city, there has
been a great scramble by the property
owners who desire them to be placed
near their property. In the Second
ward the Northwest Los Angeles I'm
provement association has determined
to assist Councilman Baker in the mat
ter of locating the lights for that ward.
At meeting Of that organization held
Thursday night call was issued to the
people of the ward to attend the next
meeting, Thursday evening, at which
time their wishes in the lighting matter
will be communicated to their council
man. AS it is probable that the entire
matter may be settled at tomorrow's $
meeting of the council this meeting
may be unnecessary. The members,
among whom are included all the lead
ing tax payers of the ward. will, how
ever endeavor to secure as good dis
position of the lights as possible.

GhrrUt TO Be COERCEO
Recall Of Troops From the Frontier
Will First BE Demanded.
Powers Must Be Responsible
For Consequences.


Athens. March 25.--It is now believed
the powers will shortly enforce 49, e
measures against Greece. A collective
note has been addressed to the govern
ment demanding the rec ~ OF the Greek
troops from the frontier and threaten.
ing that in the event of the refusal of
Greece to comply with this demand the
powers will blockade the Greek ports
near the frontier
The Greek government is about to ad-
dress another protest to the powers
against the blockade of the island of
Crete, and a formal repudiation of all
responsibility for any consequences to
which IL may give rise. The newspapers
which represent the ministerial opposi-
tior in the boule denounce the proposal
OF autonomy under Prince George as
betrayal of Hellenic interests.
The Ephemeris, which is obviously
inspired by the court, confirms the state
ment that the sultan offered to allow
Prince George to administer Crete In
return for the payment of a tribute to
the porte. but that the powers stopped
the negotiations. IL Is believed that
Germany and Austria did their utmost
10 prevent such friendly arrangement
being carried out.

Panic Narrowy :. ned
Sandy Hook, N. " March 25. - The
steamer Saginaw, from Hayti to- New
York went ashore yesterday between
Long Beach and Ship Bottom lifesavine
stations, about eight miles south OF
Barnegat, during foggy weather. Sho
has q cargo of coffee and cotton. When
the vessel grounded the 35 passengers
on board were inclined to be panic
stricken, but gradually were assured by
the ships officers that the vessel was
comparatively uninjured and In little
danger of breaking up. The lifesaving
crews took the passengers ashore, and
then rescued the captain and crew Of the
vessel. Their rescue was not accom-
plished without much difficulty. as the
waves were running high and breaking
over the decks, making walking pre-
carious from the cabins to the vessels
sides. The vessel is resting easy on her
bed in the sand. having been driven far
inshore where she would pound less dam
gerously on her keel. although waves
are still battering her heavily from
scaward. The passengers were taken
to Beach Haven, q little village three
miles south Of the scene OF the wreck.

Washington was alive today he would
be with us. 1 feel certain that Thomas
jefferson would be for us, serving un-
der the banner under which we march.
And if that heroic old man, one of our
Napoleons, President Andrew jackson
was president (applause) he would
view the British influence which con-
fronts us as he viewed their legions in
New Orleans. (Cheers.) 1 am proud
to see this gathering, proud to think
democrats, populists and republicans
can meet here to do honor to that illus
trious man. When he declared for a
government of the people and by the
people and for the people he never
could have sustained government of
the money lenders by the money lend
ers and for the money lenders. Great
applause.)
He was the great man that the great
excitement and great controversies
reached down to the hearts and con-
sciences of men and brought to the top.
Let us remember, my friends, when we
are traduced and maligned-let us re-
member the career that great man.
Ridiculed, mocked, despised, going
into Washington through Baltimore in
sleeping car with wide Scotch cap
on, in disguise, to escape assassination!
He left behind him memory that will
endure as long as civilization will en-
dure on this globe. Let us take heart
and hope and courage, and remember
that eventually even those who abuse
us will be ready to do justice to the
wisdom of our course and the purity of
our motives"

Congrsssm.n n and nrILe :,

a man who has been defeated for re-
election is not in fit frame of mind
tc legislate for his people: There is a
sting in defeat that tends to engender
the feelings of resentment which often
finds expression in the vote of such
members against wholesome legisla-
tion. That same feeling often pro-
duces such a want of interest in pro-
ceedings as to cause the member to
be absent nearly all of the second sess
ion.
congressman are not usually men of
means Their congressional career
has resulted in the destruction of their
ellen tage or business. To a defeated
member who has relied upon his salary
for support, the future looks dark and
glo omy.
it is then some are open to PROPOSE
tions which they would never think of
entertaining if they were to go before
the people for reelection. 1t is then
that the attorneyship of some corpora
tion is often rendered and a vote is af-
terward found in the record In favor Of
legislation of n general or special char
acteI favoring the corporation. If al
affirmative vote cannot be had it is
oflen just as important that the mem.
Der should be absent. If there is ever
time in the history of the man when
he will directly of indirectly accept a
bribe, it is then.
There is less chance of detection He
is no longer political factor. His pc,
litical enemies no longer watch his
course and his opposition newspapers
no longer criticise his conduct: "the
secret is his own add is safe
There are many upright men in con-
gress who would not be influenced by
defeat. But in as large body as the
house of representatives there must al
ways be some who would yield to temp.
tation.
1t is fact that nearly all, if not all,
of the legislation that is claimed to
have been passed by corrupt influence
was enacted during these second regu-
lar sessions of congress Ameri-
