A report of the city treasurer presented
to the board shows that the city is not far
from being bankrupt at the present time,
for here Is only $463.3S on hand IN the city
treasury. This Is the lowest ebb which the
city funds have reached for good many
years and the condition Is the result of ex-
traordinary expenditures in the improve
ment of the electric light system.
A report from the clerk Of the electric
light department shows that the sum OF
S4S4.12 was paid out In wages last month.
Over 1900 incandescent lamps have been
supplied to customers and $1329.79 In bills
were rendered November 1st.
The orange shipments from this city for
October were q, $40 boxes, or 10 carloads of
20 tons each. The shipping of Valencia Late
oranges Is still going on, and will be con-
tinued for this month at least. No ship
ments Of this years fruit are likely to be
made this month, as the fruit Is quite
green. 1t Is far from being as well ad-;
vanced as 1t was this month last year. The
shipments of the Valencia Late variety of
orange this year, which were made at
very good profit, have set a good many
orchardists to thinking that that orange
is good second to the navel In value, as
1t fills In Its season at the end of the year
with as much profit as does the navel in
the early part of the season.

SAYS HE WAS ATTACKED
j. Casebeer Alleged to Have Been
Stabbed

When the case against j. Williams in JUS
tlce Morrison's court was called yesterday,
1T was announced by the attorney for j. W.
Casebeer, the complaining witness, that that
gentleman would be unable to attend court
and postponement was requested. Case
beer was said to be sick in bed at friend s
house at 536 Nlimosa street. The examina-
ton was accordingly continued until Mon
day. The case is quite a peculiar one, and
according to the claims of certain people, the
cause of the inability of Casebeer to appear
was repetition of his former experience.
About year ago Casebeer came to this
city from Santa Barbara for the purpose of
consulting with his son-in-law, Williams, re-
garding the settlement of a suit for dam
ages which the latter had instituted against
him. Casebeer had caused the arrest ofWil-
llams on charge of stealing deed to some
property. Williams was released by the
Santa Barbara courts and then brought the
suit against Casebeer. Tie latter called at
the residence of Williams on lockwood
avenue, near Belmont avenue, late one night
Some words passed between Casebeer and
Williams and then the former left the front
porch, where he had carried on the CONVEX
sation. He walked half block west, to Bel
mont avenue, and was there assaulted by
two people. Casebeer was cut about the
head and nearly rendered unconscious. He
was helped by neighbors and sent to the re-
ceiving hospital.
He would throw no light on the identity
of his assailants, although it was evident by
numerous hints that he had well-defined
idea of who they were. They had worn dus-
ters, he said. Williams declined to say any
thing about the case, although suspicion was
directed toward him. Casebeer vapored
much about swearing to a complaint against
somebody, but failed to do SO until few
weeks ago when he brought charges against
his son-in-law, charging him with assault
to commit murder Williams was arrested
and his examination has been since post
poncd from time to time.
The case was up for examination yester-
day and on the evening previous Casebeer,
accompanied by some witnesses, came to
this city from Santa Barbara. In the even
ing he went up town to see the election re-
turns, presumably, and when he was on his
return to the house of Mr.. Foster his friend,
on Mimosa street, Casebeer claims that he
was attacked by man and badly injured.
The man cut him four times in the breast,
at least so Casebeer claimed After inhict-
ing this damage the assailant ran away.
Medical assistance was summoned and the
wounds dressed. The police detectives were
notified as before and consultation held
regarding the attempted assassination or
whatever it was. Casebeer, as usual main.
tanned his old time secrecy and would make
no statement to reporter who called last
evening. Whether Cascbeer has any idea
who his alleged assailant was, or whether
he will wait year before swearing to a COM
plant against him, if he is acquainted with
his identity, remains to be seen.

MORE SUSPICIOUSfIRES|
TWO BLAZES IN THE STIMSON-
LAFAYETTE SCHOOL
The First Was in the Laundry and
Later Another Was Discovered
in a Closet

Twice last night was the department
called out for fires in the Stimson- Lafayette
industrial school at 3l8 Lafayette street, and
while no positive evidence was found OF
an attempt at arson, the circumstances con-
nected with the two fires are enough to
cause suspicion.
Shortly before 9:3O o'clock a man dis
covered the reflection of light in the
laundry on the ground floor of the school,
and going to the window of the room per-
oeived that some clothes which had evil
IDENTIFY been placed on q clothes horse in
front of the stove to dry were on fire. He
at once notified the inmates of the institu-
tion, and they soon hurried downstairs to
the laundry. An alarm from box 65, corner
of Vignes and Turner streets, was in the
meanwhile turned in. The blaze was ex-
tinguished and the companies returned to
the engine house. Naturally the inmates
OF the school remained downstairs for q
while discussing the incidents of the fire,
but one of the young women happened to
go upstairs to the female dormitory, which
is located on the second floor, Immediately
above the kitchen, and there saw flames is
suing from closet. The fire was burning
fiercely in the wall and the flames had leap
ed out of the door and were beginning to
catch onto cot which was short distance
away from the door. The young woman
gave the alarm, and once more box 65 sum-
moned the engines to the school. The Sec
ond fire was soon extinguished, the entire
loss being about 5000.
How the second fire started is a mystery.
The stovepipe in the laundry underneath
runs up through the dormitory, but this
pipe is fully three or four feet from the
clothes closet where the fire took place and
there does not appear to be any connection
between the pipe and this receptacle. IT
was also found that the stovepipe was not
hot when the department arrived the Sec
ond time, and this being the case, it seems
peculiar how any fire could have been
started in the closet. The first fire in the
clothes on the rack in front of the stove
might have been set on fire by the heat,
but it seems scarcely possible with the Sec
ond fire.
This is the second time within two weeks
that fire has been discovered in the Lafay.
cite school, On the first occasion the blaze
was underneath the back stairs, near the
laundry, but was extinguished before much
damage was done. This fire was thought to
have been of incendiary origin, but no
trace of the culprit was apparently secured.
1t is not known whether some people enter
tain an animosity against the institution
which would lead them to try to destroy it.

His Neck Was Broken

Melvin j. Banks, who while practicing
tumbling at the Los Angeles Athletic club
Monday evening, fell and injured his spine,
died yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the
California hospital. An autopsy, to ascer-
tain the extent of the injuries sustained,
was held last evening by Drs. Haynes, Wills
and Beckett. 1t was found that the neck
had been broken about four inches below
the skull. The blow had dislocated the fifth
cervical vertebrae, pushing It over the next
below and pinching the spinal cord almost
cutting it in two and causing paralysis of the
entire body. The only wonder is that Banks
lived for thirty-six hours instead of being in
stantly killed.

FLOATING IN The SURF
REMAINS OF THE SANTA MONICA
SUICIDE DISCOVERED
Youthful scapegraces Arraigned and
the Case Continued for Examina-
tion-Notes and Personals

SANTA MONICA, Nov. 9.-The body of
mitted suicide early yesterday morning or
late the night before by throwing herself
from the pleasure wharf, was seen floating
in the surf at o'clock this morning by q
Mexican boy. The lad never stopped run
ming until he reached home, some two miles
away, and notified his father, o. Oliveras,
who rode over to the beach and secured a
boat to get the body.
In the meantime the body had been seen
by John S. Springstead, resident of
"Clamdike," settlement of clam diggers
about one mile south of the new Kinney &
Ryan wharf. Springstead swan out from
the shore, distance of about one hundred
yards, with line, which he attached to
the body until A. NJ. Guidinger, the under
taker, arrived to take it up to the morgue.
The inquest will be held tomorrow.
A. C. Smith, barber doing business on
Utah avenue, was arrested last night at mid

boys, Deputy District Attorney Willis
moved that the case be continued until De.

No bet was ever made as to the seating
