SCHOOL REGISTRATION on.
About 40 900 New Pupils Expected-No
lncrease In Part Time likely.


The public schools will open next Monday
and it is expected that the condition In re-
gard to seating accommodation will be
somewhat improved over that Of last year.
City Supt. Maxwell said yesterday: Il
cannot tell as yet how many pupils will be
on part time. will not have the reports
from the various principals in regard to
registration before Tuesday or Wednes-
day Unjust decline to make guess
The number Of part time pupils last May
was ca, 1914. The number on Sept. 80 last
year was 30, 228. The construction Of new
school houses went on 30 rapidly that part
time was steadily reduced.
There Is always a considerable increase
In the number Of pupils at the opening Of
the school year. Last year the increase
was $4,000 The increase in registration
this year is expected to be about 10000.
The number on registration Sept. 80 last
year was $40, 35l. The number Of sittngs
on that date was SOL, 478. The average
daily attendance, however, during the
last year was only 46e, 81 pupils.
The trouble is that the sittings are not
all used. During the last year $1,000 new
sittings have been provided and 1t was said
at the Board Of Education yesterday that
, before the beginning Of the new year, new
houses and additions to old ones would
provide additional sittings to the number
Of l04, $40
The highest number Of pupils on part time
was on Oct. 81 1908, when the figure reached
81, 365.

FIFTH AVE. BAPTISTS STICK.
Talk OF Split Quiets Down and the Old
Etif1Ce Ia RepAired.

ENIIiCC 10 NCpAiHcN
The congregation Of the Fifth Avenue
Baptist Church, Of which John D. Rookie
Teller Is member will again occupy this
fall its house Of worship on Forty-sixth
street, just west OF Fifth avenue. The
building was closed last spring on an order
from the Building Department declaring
1t unsafe and in danger Of collapse.
Services were discontinued and the con-
gregation worshiped with other oongre-
cations and later for time In Mendelssohn
Hall In West Fortieth street, until the vaca-
ton season began. For time there was
talk OF split in the church. A few in the
church favored a continued congregational
existence in another neighborhood, further
uptown, while few others favored union
with the Baptist Church Of the Epiphany
at Sxty-fourth street and Madison avenue.
They brought another congregation, the
Madison Avenue Church at Thirty-n
street. into the union talk. Nothing came
Of it and the matter was allowed to drop.
The majority OF the Fifth avenue oongre-
CATION. however. wanted the church to stay
where it was. Architects were ca lied in
and they decided that the church might
be strengthened sufficiently to be perfectly
safe. The trustees gave the order to go
tractors with the stipulation that it must
be completed by early autumn. This, it is
said. has been done. practically. and the
auditorium is now in the hands Of decorators
whose work will take up several weeks.
Possibly by the last Sunday in Septem-
Der, or certainly by the Sunday following,
the chapel will be ready for temporary use.
Decorators ere now pga ged on the chapel
interior. The pastor, the Rev. DR.. r. P.
Johnston. will it Is said. return to town
for the reopening service in the chapel.

REFUSE TO CONSIDER s-HOURDAY
The United TypothetH Reject the Proposals
or the Typogra phical Union.

Oa VIC AypV6i ephhSeA ShAVss'
NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, Sept. THE
United Typothete Of America, In conven-
ton to-day. refused to consider the eight
hour day question when asked to do 80 by
President Lynch and Vice-President Hays
of the International Typographical Union,
who were here prepared to discuss the ques-
ton with the Typothete, il the latter body
was go disposed. They wanted to learn II the
Typothet@ would be ready at any future
time to take up the question, but the Typo
thete refused to consider any proposition
whatever. This undoubtedly means war
between the printers and their employers,
and it is understood here that 1t will develop
before Jan. /.
President Higgins and three vice-presi-
dents Of the International Pressmen's
Union also sounded the Typothete on the
eight hour question. but got no satisfaction.
However, their contract Ii good until May,
1907 and they will live up to It, II it isnot vio-
lated by the Typothetse, President Higgins
says.
The Typothetae reelected it's old officers
and enlarged its executive committee by
six members. 1t also adopted resolutions
condemning the use Of the union label,
especially on political printing.

HOLDS DIRECTORS FOR LOSSES
Receiver Blames the Board OF the Mon
mouth Trust and Safe Deposit Co.

NOUN lruSt Anu Satc DepOsit ~.
TRENTON, N. j., Sept. I'm bill filed in
the Court Of Chancery here the directors Of
the defunct Monmouth Trust and Safe
Deposit Company are held responsible for
losses OF the concern, amounting IN the
aggregate to nearly t2oo. 900. The company
closed Its doors In February, 1908. The
suit Is brought by John E. tanning as re-
ceiver.
The defendants are: George F. Kroehl,
David c. Cornell, Oliver H. Brown, Albert
c. Twining, George B. NJ. Harvey, Henry
Mitchell, Herbert II. Vreeland William X.
Ryan, Archibald H. White Horace B.
Person Robert A. Tusting, Peary r. Smith
and Samuel A. Patterson.
Receiver tanning summarizes the vari-
Gus causes resulting in the loss and i'm
pairment OF the assets OF the trust COM
pany and its subsequent suspension OF
business. These, he says, were directly
occasioned by the neglect Of the president
and board OF directors to perform their duties
and discharge the obligations imposed
upon them by the laws Of the State and the
bylaws Of the company. He charges specif-
cally that during the period Of six years
prior to the failure OF the company the
officers were accustomed to make loans
and accept notes and other Instruments OF
Indebtedness without security and without
collateral, 10 purchase stOCkS hiiu DouO5
which had no market value at excessive
prices; to engage in speculative enterprises
and make hazardous investments; TO use the
funds entrusted to their care for their
own personal benefit and to borrow large
sums Of money involving the institution
In debt wholly out Of proportion to its CAPT.
tai and resources, and hypothecating the
aesete as collateral security.
The bill recites that the State Banking
and Insurance Department criticized the
mana cement OF the company, and while
promises OF reformation were made there
was no betterment in the administration.
Two months before the company suspended
1t reported that it had assets aggregating
1867 ,o74, while an investigation afterward
showed that the resources were actually

TINY ROAD MUST
CEASE OPERATING
MAYOR TRAINING FOR FIGHT
WITH RAILWAYS
COMMENCES ON TOY LINE
Park Commission Rules That the Line
Which Has Been a Delight to
Boys and Girls Must Stop
Operations

Mayor McAleer has fired the opening
gun of his war on the railroads in Los
Angeles, which are operating without
franchise of their own. His park
commissioners ruled yesterday that the
miniature railroad which has been
operated in Eastlake park for several
months by j. ]. Colt, to the delight of
the boys and girls Of the city must dis
continue it's service.
No longer will the hills Of the park
echo at the merry toot of the little, but
Industrious locomotive. The joyful yell
of the small boy and the half scared
scream Of his sister will no longer
ring through the trees as Of old, when
the little train whirled around a curve
and the boy imagined he was the con-
ductor of a real, sure enough, grown up
train.
Permission to operate this toy rail-
road was granted last summer to Colt
by the old park commission and con-
tinued at the pleasure of the park COM
missioners. Mayor McAleer's commits
sion decided that it was not a pleasure
at all and ordered the road stopped.
The reason for this action is not ex-
actly plain, but that ascribed and which
has gained credence among officials is
that Mayor McAleer is preparing to
hook up with the big railroad COM
panies and wants to begin on some
thing small to find out exactly how
the trick is done.
Attorney Bob" Todd appeared for
Colt and declared that should the park
commissioners try to enforce their rul-
ing and prevent Colt from operating
his railroad, he will carry the case to
the courts and make the commission
take away all the boating and popcorn
privileges which it has let to various
parties in every park.

VISITS ORANGE BELT
All Express Themselves as More Than
Pleased With Los Angeles
Enter+ainnent

Los Angeles part as host to the Salt
Lake Commercial club officially ended
yesterday with the trip to Riverside
and Pomona, but citizens have taken
I'D the pleasant task where the city left
off, and so long as their is a saint in
the city, who makes his presence
known by the red badge, anything
wanted will be procured for him.
This is the sentiment that was ex-
pressed yesterday by the reception COM
mittee on the return to Los Angeles
from the outing over the Salt Lake
road.
Have we had a good time?" said
Fisher Harris, secretary of the Salt
Lake Commercial club, when asked If
any one had a complaint coming.
"Well, 1 should say we have. Let me
place the words in italics and accent
each syllable. 1 guess we have seen
everything there is to be seen, except
ing the breweries and I suppose some
of the boys saw their product, so we
did not miss much"
Pomona and Riverside were visited
return in the afternoon the company
dispersed for trips to the beaches and
various parts of the city.
The Los Angeles Realty board gave
a luncheon yesterday noon at the Bris-
tol to the Salt Lake Real Estate asso-
citation, at which forty were present,
Following the serving of the menu ad-
dresses followed from the presidents
and prominent members of the organ
izations.
At a joint meeting of the Salt Lake
Commercial club and the real estate
association at the Angelus yesterday
afternoon resolutions were passed
thanking Senator Clark, the press, the
chamber of commerce and the citizens
of Los Angeles for the good time the
visitors have enjoyed.
Last night many enjoyed the hospi-
tality of the Jonathan club, some went
to the theaters and many lounged in
the corridor and parlors of the An
gelus.
Two additional Pullmans were added
to the regular train for Salt Lake last
night and number of the visitors de-
parted for their homes.
Senator Reed Shoots party will
leave Los Angeles for Salt Lake tomor-
row. A few of the member of the
Commercial club will go on to San
Francisco, but the majority win re-
turn home either today or tomorrow.
