The news of the placing of a lot of men,
as many as can well be employed, on the
coast line of the Southern Pacific on clos
ing the gap" comes soon after the re-
ceipt of a letter by Edward Ivison of
Santa Barbara from President G. P.
Huntington, in reply to one sent to him
by Mr.. Ivison protesting against the
long-continued delay in completing the
line, in spite of the promises made when
rights of way We're secured.
Mr. Huntington said, in this last let
ter: II know that the people of Santa
Barbara would be very much benefited
by the completion of the coast road, and
we will endeavor to complete the work
between Surf and Ellwood as soon as we
we'll can" This may mean much or it
may mean nothing at all, popularity
of Mr.. Huntington's letters.
Next week the Southern Pacific COM
pany will keep four work trains en-
ployed at the gravel pit at Palm Springs.
The intention is to gravel the entire road
between this city and Ell Paso.

CLEARING HOUSE SYSTEM
For Money Orders Goes Into Effect
Here Tomorrow

| Postmaster Mathews has at last sue.
ceeded in prevailing upon the Postof
flee Department to adopt the Clear.
ing House" system of dealing with the
| money -Order business. Recipients OF
money orders often find that they are
| obliged to waste much time in standing
in line at the Postoffice Wanting fol
their turn at the clerks window. This
plan obviates all of this nuisance an6
renders the collection of money order
ordinary check.
Under this arrangement money orders
drawn upon this postoffice are received
on deposit for collection by the several
banks the same as ordinary drafts OF
checks, and at once credited to the ac-
count of the depositor, who is thus
spared the necessity of presenting them
at the postoffice.
The Postoffice Department, desirous
of accommodating the business houses,
which are the payees of some millions
of these orders. has recently modified
certain of its regulations, for the con-
venience of banks and the business pub
lic,and under the method above ,'escrib-
ed the prompt payment of orders will
be greatly facilitated.
Money orders deposited in bank for
this purpose need not be indorsed to the
bank, but simply receipted on the face
as when presented by the owner at the
postoffice.
The Los Angeles National Bank has
been delegated to receive all such money
orders presented to it at the clearing
house meetings by other banks, and has
consented, with the sanction of the
Clearing House Association, to act as
the representative of the Postoffice De-
partment in clearing all such money
orders presented for payment.
That banks may not be necessarily
all orders presented which are drawn
upon this office. whether the CORES.
ponding advice is or is not on file at the
time the order is presented.
Under this arrangement no order will
be returned because of a technical ir-
regularity. Only such orders will be re-
turned as are necessarily rejected be-
cause drawn upon another office or be-
cause Of some serious omission or grave
defect Of irregularity appearing there
in affecting their validity as vouchers.
Every money order presented through
the clearing house should be receipted
on it's face by the payee or endorsee,
and need not be indorsed by the bank,
but must be stamped on the back by the
bank presenting same.
This system will be inaugurated Feb
