sided. The call of the executive COMMITTEES
was adopted, directing the division Of the
various assembly districts into voting pre-
cincs for the election Of delegates to the

In order to raise money to defray print

official call, 1t was decided to assess every
person nominated at the caucuses to be
held August 9th the sum Of 81. IT was at
first proposed to assess the members OF the

by the executive committee and adopted.
provides that the delegates to the sixth
congressional district, the Third distric,
railroad commissioners and the Fourth dis
trict board of equalization shall all be taxi

CoLoRED MAN IN TROUBLE
Accused Of Stealing spectacles and
Committing Burglary

F. johnson, a negro was locked up at the
police station yesterday morning on a
charge of petty larceny. An additional
charge of burglary will probably be
brought. For the past two months Johnson
has been employed by F. C. Short of the
Villa, East Los Angeles, but was dis
charged on Saturday. Short claimed that
johnson carried away pair of spectacles.
This was reported to the police. Yesterday
morning Short had occasion to come to the
city once more, and during his absence
the wine room was broken into and a sum of
money carried away by the thief. En-,
trance was effected through window, after
which the cash till was broken and $3.50
taken.
Short suspected Johnson and returned to
the city for the purpose of searching for
the supposed thief and reporting the case
to the detectives. Short found johnson on
First street, between Main and Los An
geles, weighted down with number of
bundles of clothing. Johnson had evident
ly struck a windfali or obtained money in
some manner, for he was making numerous
purchases of clothes. Short took him into
custody and marched him to the corner of
Main and First streets, and there turned
him over to Officer Fowler. When searched
there was still s22.4 in the pockets of John
son, and this is supposed to be the remain
der of the stolen money.

Examined Mrs, Shaw

Mrs. Helen M. Shaw, late Of Hawaii, but
now of the city Jail, was examined by Jus
tce Owens yesterday on a charge of having
passed fictitious note on Mr.. and Mrs.
Woodham, lodging house keepers on South
Main street. The woman resided at their
place for nine months and during that time
became indebted TO them to the extent of
$500 for room rent and money advanced.
Mrs. Shaw represented to them that she
was possessed of considerable property, but
the returns were slow. In other words,
she posed as a remittance woman, and the
woodlands took her at her word, while she
took them in. Finally the Woodlands tired
Of advancing money and requested that she
produce. Mrs. Shaw showed them a note
for $500, purporting to have been signed by
Herman and Julia Johnson of San Ber-
nardino. The Woodlands accepted this
note, pending the arrival of her wealth, but
when the note was discovered to be ficti-
tious Mrs. Shaw was arrested. The case
was taken under Amusement.

RED CROSS
Badges Received for the Juveniles
Qrpheum Benefit

The Juvenile branch of the Red Cross
promises to be very taking feature among
the little folks. Many children have been
intensely interested in raising money for
the soldiers and they feel very proud to
march off with badge pinned on them. A
box of children's badges has recently been
received and it is probable many more will
have to be ordered If the war Is not closed
soon.
The Orpheum managers will give a Red
Cross benefit Tuesday afternoon, August
9th. The entire proceeds will be applied to
the Red Cross fund, the work of the COM
pany and the rent of the house being do
mated. Rev. J. r. Jones of the Central
Presbyterian church has written to the
president that thirteen members were add
ed from that body.
A letter of thanks was received yesterday
from Captain Wankowski of Company A,
for the mess tent recently sent by the Red
Cross.

WATER TALK
City's Suit Starts the Gossips Going
Observation-Disclosures Meet

Observation-Disclosures Meet
A wild rumor on the street yesterday af-
ternoon had 1t from some authority not
quoted that the next move in the water
question will be the filing of a suit by the
Kessler people, proposing to compel the
city to accept their plan of settling the
water question. Attorney Lowenthal, when
told of the story, could not refrain from
laughing.
why" he said, 'such canard as that
is an absurdity on its face, and yet any one
who would start tale of that kind is guilty
of malicious act, for there are many who,
in their ignorance of the law and what is
possible under it, might give credence to
report, which is fabrication, pure and
simple. There is absolutely no truth in the
statement, even so far as that Kessler &
Co. contemplate filing any kind of a suit
whatever"
Messrs. James c. Rays and Charles T
Healy, selected by the city and the water
company respectively to arbitrate the wa-
Ter question, had another conference yes
terday. but have not as yet mapped out
the problem before them. They selected
permanent headquarters at room POI, Bu!-
lard block, and met there in the afternoon
at o'clock. Nothing has as yet been de-
oided as to selecting the third member of
the board of arbitration, except that who
ever is chosen to complete the board must
be entirely disinterested, a nonresident,
and not already apprised of the situation.

REPORT OF ENGINEER
His Recommendation in Various
Street and Sewer Matters

City Engineer Dockweiler Yesterday re-
ported that he had found that the protest
against the grading of Olive street from
First street to about half way to Second
contains signatures representing the entire
frontage along the proposed Improvement.
Council scarcely knew how to treat such
a report at first, Nickel making a motion
to file the protest and Toll moving an amend
ment that it be denied. Neither the amend
ment nor the motion secured a second and
II was finally decided that the protestants
be given a hearing on next Monday. As
the street is improved on both sides of the
district in question it is not probable that
council can be prevailed upon to abandon
the proceedings.
The engineer presented the following
amendment to the specifica lions for con-
struction of sidewalks of natural soil and it
was referred to the board of public works:
1.-The sidewalks, excepting those portions
covered by either a cement or asphalt side
walk which is on the proper grade, shall
be brought to grade in the manner herein
before specified. In places where a fill is
necessary it shall be made in the manner
hereinbefore specified and finished with a
top coat of 3k inches In thickness of the
same class of material as that composing
the natural surface of the street. After the
sidewalk has been brought to grade, it
shall be moistened and rolled or tamped I'M
til solid. Any depressions below grade
which may occur during the rolling or lamp
ing shall be filled with the same class of ma
terial as that composing the surface of the
street and again mostened and rolled or
tamped until solid.
In the matter of the line of Jefferson
street from Main to Central avenue the en-
gneer reported that the street should be of
uniform width of S2lh feet from Main
