SAVED HIS FATHER
Why W. T. Maurice Smashed g.
Probert

w. T. Maurice. one of the propretors OF
the Central warehouse at 251 San Pedro
street, was found guilty Of battery by JUS
tice Morrison yesterday and will be SEN
fenced today. G. Probert, the proprietor of
the City bakery. 1879 Geary street, was the
complainant, and he also had caused the
arrest of w. H. Maurice, father of the other
defendant.
On Friday Probert was presented with a
bill by the Maurices for $500 for flour, which
he declined to pay, claiming that the bill
was not due them, and further alleging that
the flour was not up to the required stand
ard. This reflection Mr.. Maurice resented
and replied that Probert was trying to es-
cape paying the bill and that the flour was
good. 1t was claimed by the Maurces that
rrobert made a motion as If to strike the
elder man, but young Maurice jumped in
and smashed Probert first. W. I. Maurice
gave as his reason that he thought Probert
was in tho act of striking his father, who is
an old man.

system and that with that amount moth
ing but a mere start was expected to be
made. 1t can readily be appreciated that
the $4,000 allowed would not go far If 1t were
applied to actual purchase Of the neces-
sary apparatus and appurtenarces. Only
a very small number of alarm boxes could
be put in and but a limited territory COW
cred.
For this reason, outright purchase Of the
station mechanism will not take place this
year. The entire $4,000 allowance will be in
vested in the service lines and boxes, and
1t Is said that not fewer than fifty boxes
will be put in to begin with. The inside
apparatus will then be rented from the
Gamewell company until such time as
funds are provided for its purchase. In
this way the use Of very respectable sys-
tern can be had from the beginning. The
program also contemplates that the coun-
ell will next year give $1,000 toward the
purchase of the apparatus and extension
of the service.
City Electrician Francis will Immediate
ly begin the laying of the wires required
for the system, using the conduits of the
Sunset Telephone company for this pur-
pose.

NEWS OF THE RAILWAYS
COUPLE OF WASHoUTs ANNOY
SANTA FE OFFICIALS
Trains Expected to Be Operated on
Time Today-A Southern Pacific
Coast Line Talked OF

The Santa Fe had its line in apple pie or
der yesterday morning, and the expectation
that trains would be run on time made
Chief Clerk Walker Of the superintendent's
office very smiling and amiable, but oh
what a difference few hours later when
the news came that another heavy rain had
carried away two bridges near Ludlow. A
large force Of men was at once dispatched
to the scene and set to work rushing re-
pairs. 1t was thought that by this morning
trains would be operated on time.
Some rains were experienced on the
Southern Pacific last night on the desert
but they cleared away without doing any
harm. All of the trains on the Sunset line
are leaving and arriving on time.
Talk Of a Branch Line
The people Of Redondo and along the
coast in that neighborhood are much ex-
cited about the report that a surveying
party are locating railway line between
San Pedro and that place by way of Fish
erman's cove and Point st. Vincent. It Is
also reported that the Southern Pacific COM
pany has partially secured a right Of way
through the Bixby ranch. and that they
contemplate building a coast line route,
connecting all of the ports, San Pedro Re-
dondo and Santa Monica.
Wharf at Last Condemned
At Intervals the intimation has appeared
IN the papers that the Santa Monica trus-
tees were about to condemn the Santa re
wharf at that place as unsafe and menace
to the public. At last the town trustees
have SO acted and the Santa Fee company
has been given the ultimatum Of putting
the wharf into decent condition or Of pull
ing 1t down altogether. The latter will
probably be the outcome Of the matter.
Notes and Personals
Traffic Manager F. c. Gay of the Santa
Fe is in this part Of the country, having
spent several days recently at the Redondo
hotel.
The Santa Fee is so short Of water sup
ply between this city and GcnCora that it
has to employ tank cars to keep Its engines
supplied. The company had good wen at
Raymond station, but the sinking of others
in that vicinity has so decreased the flow
as to render It entirely inadequate. The
Raymond we'll will be deepened in the hope
of adding to Its flow.
Superintendent Wells Of the Santa Fe
Pacific Is out on the line keeping the repairs
on the washed-out sections up TO the stand
ard.
c. H. Plat, general superintendent OF the
New York, New Haven ard Hartford rail-
way went to San Diego, or rather Coronado,
yesterday. He will return via Riverside in
few days.
Pacific Coast General Freight Agent I.
D. Connolly of the Texas Pacific railway
has returned from a business trip to San
Francisco.
Both the Santa Fe and the Southern Pa
cific will operate special trains wherever
they are needed on next Saturday evening
for the accommodation of visitors to the
Gage ratification meeting.
