COURT DISCHARGES BARBER
Frank Long, Well Known to Police,
Escapes Through Lack of
Evidence

Frank Long, a barber whose shop is
located near the Arcade depot, was
arraigned before Police Judge Austin
yesterday afternoon charged with try
ing to avoid payment of a bill to a
saloonkeeper. Long was discharged on
account of lack of evidence.
According to the testimony it ap-
pears that Long entered the Arcade
restaurant while intoxicated on the
night of December Z. The proprietor of
the restaurant testified that the barber
started to leave without settling for his
supper. The man was stopped by the
cashier, and upon his refusal to pay
was taken to the city jail by a police
man who had been called in.
The police say that Long is a char
acter well known to them and that they
have had many complaints from tour
lists who visited his shop and claimed
that they were charged as high as 81
or SO for haircut. They also say that
other BARRIERS are demanding an eX-
cessive price for their work after it is
done for strangers and that they mean
to put stop to it.

Mechanic Explains That Automobile

He Fixed Ii

N. B. Stanfeld, chauffeur for H. e.
Huntington was arrested and fined
yesterday for violating the automobile
speed ordinance. Stanfield stated at
the police station that he had the
power shut off and the brake on but
that it would not hold the machine back
while coming down the hill on West

a machinist, who declared that they
We're going about fifteen or sixteen
miles and hour and seemed to be rather
proud of the feat. He said that Mr..
Huntington had complained on Monday
that the machine was not working well
and was not running fast enough to suit
him. The mechanic gave the machine
an overhauling yesterday and had not
gone over five or six blocks when he
was arrested.
"I guess We showed the boss she
could go all right" was his parting re-
mark to the police as he left the station
after Mr.. Huntington had sent money

BEGIN TRIAL OF

M0RIARITY is CHARGED WITH
INCOMPETENCE
Building Inspector eaekus Gives Tes-
tImony In Attempt to Show
official Approved Of Un-
lawful Structures

What promises to be one of the long
est drawn out civil service trials in the
history of the city was begun yester-
day afternoon at 4 o'clock when Fire
Inspector d. A. Moriarity was ar
raigned before the civil service COM
missioners on charges of general in
competency, neglect of duty and favor
ing one contractor over others. The
charges are preferred by Building Su-
perintendent j. j. Backus.
Moriarity, who is defended by At
torney Dillon, has about thirty wit
nesses to testify in his behalf and
Building superintendent Backus has a
dozen or more. Mr.. Backus and Build
ing Inspector Fellows were the only
witnesses examined yesterday and the
case was continued until Thursday az
ternoon at 4 o'clock.
In his testimony Mr.. Backus pro-
duced testimony attempting to show
that Moriarity had given his 20 K'
on a number Of fire escapes that were
much lighter than required by the city
ordinance.
Mr.. Backus Testifies
The building superintendent produced
Mr.. Moriarity's own books of certifi-
Gates on which he had affixed his 20
X" Mr.. Backus testified that he had
personally examined a number of the
questionable fire escapes and found
that they did not comply with the or
djnance.
The fire escapes in question are To-
Gated at Fifth street and Grand avenue,
107 Wilmington street, 523 San Julian.
306 South Los Angeles, 507-5O9 South
Broadway, the Fifth Street depart
ment store and Pico house. All of these
fire escapes, Mr.. Backus declared, had
been built by D. M. Leary, the con-
tractor whom Moriarity is accused of
favoring.
In an effort to prove his statement
that Moriarity was in league with
Contractor Leary and received COM
missions on fire escapes, Mr.. BaclSus
read notes purporting to be from 4
private diary kept by Moriarity in
which were statements to the effect
that he had told Leary to see certain
persons about fire escapes-and had
himself taken Leary's bids to owners
of buildings and induced them to con-
slider Learys proposition before ac~
cepting others.

in his teeth and blotted the entry he
said sotto voce:
Keep those Igorrotes in town for n

there has been an unprecedented rush
for dog licenses, until 1t seems that
the monthly report from the license
collectors office will show that all pre-
vious records have been broken. The
record, so far, from the beginning of
the fiscal year has already been broken
more licenses having been issued than
for the entire preceding year and the
last few days have greatly added to the
aggregate.
owners of pet dogs seem to have
gained the impression that IL their
CANNES wear the little tags they are
somehow under police protection. or
that the tag is a fetch which the Igor
