CITY ATTORNEYS REPORT
Obstructed Alley to Be Investigated
3a and Obstruction Removed

City Attorney Dunn made a report on an
alley in the Macy street tract which is al
legged to be obstructed for distance OF
sixty feet by public school building. The
attorneys report was az follows:
In the matter of the suit of f. NJ. Starr,
plaintiff, against the city of Los Angeles,
the board of education ct al, defendants,
to abate the nuisance. which consists of an
obstruction of public alley, caused by
the erection of a public school upon said
alley. The allegation in the complaint is
that said school building projects a
distance of twelve feet into the alley for
a distance of sixty feet. l have ascer-
tanned from the engineers office that the
facts alleged in the complaint are true.
In view of this l recommend that the mat
ter be investigated and means devised for
either acquiring the necessary land or re-
moving the building from the alley as the
city has no right to allow an obstruction
of this character to remain upon a public
thorouhfgare, and an attempt to contest
the cause would simply result In an ac-
emulation of costs against the city and the
board of education, as the board Is also
a party to this action. l have addressed a
communication 10 them upon tho same sub
feet and in the same line, and suggested
that they confer with you in relation to
the same.
The matter was referred to the committee
on public buildings.
The attorney recommended that disclaim-
ers be filed in the quiet title suits brought
against the city by Ynez Gotta de Lyon,
Honore b. Marion and d. w. Field, admin
istrator, the right being reserved, however,
to the lien for taxes this year. In the Ma
ron suit a strip will be retained off one
side of the land in question to be used in
the widening of First street. The report
was adopted.
AS per the recommendations OF the at
torney the following ordinances were
passed: Ordinance providing for the re-
advertisement for bids on the construction
of a sewer on Broadway from Third TO
Seventh; providing for the readvertise
for bids on the construction of sewer
On Ruth avenue; reducing the oil well
license. from 81 TO 81 per quarter; authoriz-
ing tax collector to employ certain extra
men; providing for the opening of Park
Grove avenue and appointing the commits
sioners; granting r. NJ. Nelson thel privi-
lege of erecting a cable over First street.
The contract and bond of j. d. Newman
& Co. for the furnishing of street signs
were presented and approved.

STREET PROTESTS
Council Manages to Finally Dispose of
Some of Them

Council has had bunch of street pro-
tests hanging fire for anywhere from two
months to year and has, for the last TWO
or three weeks, tried to get rid of some of
them in vain. Yesterday two Of them were
disposed of and caused a sigh of relief TO
go round when the final decision was
reached.
One was the matter of grading por-
ton of Olive street from First to 257 feet
north of Second street. w. w Robinson,
one Of the protestants, stated that the
property holders had paid for the grading
of their street and the work was done some
years ago with the understanding that If
the street should ever have to De regarded
the city would pay the expense. As the pro-
jected change Is made necessary by new
grade on First street, the property hold
ers now feel that the city should hold to
It's promise. Councilman Mathuss was in
favor of the city making the improvement
at it's own expense, but q motion that the
proceedings be abandoned cut him off and
the motion carried.
John T. Jones, a protestant against the
improvement of Sixth street, as the adj
ministrator of the Creole estate, made the
claim that a majority of those who are
to be assessed are represented In the pro-
test and also alleged that the assessment
district was not equitably laid out. Coun-
ell would not grant either contention and
the protest was denied.
The protests against tho changing of the
grade on portions of Fifth street and the
appeal of w. G. Parker and others from
acceptance Of the work of sewerng por-
ton of Central avenue were continued
until next Monday. That Of John Kiefer and
others against the sewerlng of San Fer
nando street was also continued another
week, but the matter will probably all be
arranged by connection with a private
sewer.
The protests against the alley from
Fourth to Fifth streets and between
Broadway and Hill; against the opening
and widening of Marchessault street and
against the opening Of Mission boulevard
were continued for two weeks.
The protest of James c. Bright and
others against the opening of Short street
was referred to the board of public works
