Caused Disturbance.

Caused Disturbance.
Annie Wallace. about thirty years of age,
appeared before Judge ONeal in the Police
Court upon a charge Of disorderly conduct,
and after the testimony had been heard a
fine of Sb was entered by the court. Police
man ]. H. Fletcher Of the fourth precinct
took the stand and testified that about 1
o'clock this morning he was standing near
the corner of Az and streets southwest
and that he heard the screams Of a woman
who was apparently calling for help. The
calls came from the direction Of the river,
and when the officer arrived at the bank
the night lights of the double-turreted mon
itor Puritan, which is used by the naval
battalion Of the District of Columbia as a
training ship, doomed up From his position
on the shore the policeman dscerned sew
eral women and men struggling, and one
woman screamed please don't throw me
overheard"
The policeman ran to the government dock
and in company with man named Cox
rowed out toward the ship. On the way to
the monitor. the officer says, he met several
of the men, with two women, in boat COM
ing to the shore. He attempted to intercept
them, but they circled in the water and, see
ing that the pursuit would be futile, he con-
tinued on his way to the Puritan.
Upon his arrival he stepped on board,
where one woman and several men were
still standing. He inquired as to the cause
of the disturbance. after having ascertaned
that the men were sailors of the United
States navy. They told him that the sooner
he left the ship the better for him, and as
the other sailors who had just returned
from the shore came on board things began
to look squally for the policeman, as the
men intimated to him that he was to be
thrown overheard, and one advanced in his
direction.
Quick as a flash Fletcher reached for his
revolver and backed up to the starboard
side Of the turret OF the twelve-inch guns,
which are situated aft. Seeing the deter
mined stand the officer was taking. the
the meantime some one ashore had tele-
phoned to the fourth precinct station Of
the trouble, and the reserves were ordered
to the scene in the patrol wagon The
wagon, with the reserves in, dashed up 70
the shore, and, seeing the bluecoats the
sailors told Fletcher, who was still stand
ing against the turret with his revolver
drawn, that they would accompany him.
Fletcher got into the prov of the small
boat after Annie Wallace, Percy H. Grif-
fifth and Fred Slber had preceded him.
They were then rowed ashore, where they
were placed under arrest. May Wilson and
Bessie Harris, who had gone ashore with
the sailors, were also placed under arrest,
and all were taken to the fourth precinct
station, where a charge of disorderly con-
duct was registered against them. Later

Worlds Greatest Theatrical Train
Goes South-Reports Immense
Advance Gale of Seats

The largest theatrical train that has
ever passed through Los Angeles was
transferred last night at midnight from
the Southern Pacific to the Santa Fe

the Ben Hur theatrical troupe en- route
from San Jose to San Diego.
The train when 1t arrived here con-
sisted of thirteen cars. The machine
car, carrying the machinery in duph-
cate was switched off in order that the
advance company Of mechanics might
begin their work of rebuilding the stage

TO RUN LUXURIOUS TRAIN
Salt Lakes "Los Angeles Limited"
Will Have Equipment Equal to
That of Any Road

Railroad officials announce that the
first Los Angeles Limited" train will
leave the Northwestern depot in Chi
cago at 6 p. m. December 10 instead of
on November 3, the original date
The postponement was due to the fact
that the electric dynamos for use on
the train could not be secured as
early as desired.
According to the schedule the train
will make the run from Chicago to Los
Angeles in exactly 66 hours and should
pull into the Salt Lake depot here at
u m. December IS. This is a faster
time between these two points than is
scheduled by any other road.
The officials say that this will be the
finest train in service between the east
and west. 1t will consist of IA stand
ard sleepers, dining car, club car and
observation car. The club car will be
so constructed as to contain a dining
room buffet, smoking and reading
room and observation room. The en-
tire train will be lighted by electricity.
This is the only train entering the
city from the east that is named after
its destination and for this reason II
will be a big advertisement for Los
Angeles.

CLOUD SPLITTING BULLET IN
DURESS
ErstwhiIe Frequenter of Empyrean Is
RudeIy Cast Into the Dim
Limbo of Musty
Warehouse

Punctured in many places, torn and
crumpled by the careless hands of Of
ficers Of the law and robbed of its
splendor, the airship Bullet" the pride
of Southern California, lies in a dark
corner of a downtown warehouse,
where it will remain until w. S. Twom-
bly,, its owner decides whether he will
pay debt Of $13.72 or allow W. H.
Holmes, of local collection agency,
to take the airship in lieu of the cash.
The airship was attached yesterday
by Deputy Constable Holman of Con-
stable De la Monte's office. The at
tachment was made on suit brought by
the Holmes Collection agency against
Twombly for payment of some kind of
a debt. The attachment failed to stat
what the debt was for but it is und,
stood among aeronauts that it is O.
bill for hot air used in initiation of the
big ship.
Upon the street yesterday there was
general lamentation that Twombly
should go in debt for hot air when
Los Angeles herald., 1905-11-16

The absence of the city council, how
ever, was given as one way of account
ing for the paucity of superheated at
mosphere.
Works Hot Air Pump
The serving of the attachment on
the airship at Chutes park yesterday
was an easy matter Deputy Holman
walked in, read the attachment cere-
monies over the great mass of silk and
ropes and then came the trouble.
How was the big airship to be moved
Holman thought of every way possible
and then gave up in despair and tele-
phoned De la Monte. The constable
was unable to solve the problem until
he happened to think of Deputy Jack
Adams, and he sent the able Jack to
the scene Of Holman's encounter with
the airship.
Jack talked to the great machine,
talked as he had never talked before,
but it did not work. After Jack had
talked for two hours 1t was found that
the balloon was only half filled with
hot air and Jack was completely eX-
hausted. A score of men were then
sent to the scene of action and the air.
ship with all its pipes, framework, en-
gine and other appliances was taken to
storage.
1t has not yet been decided what
will be done with the airship but the
temptation is strong within the
doughty little Jack Adams and If he
yields and harnesses up the sky yacht
carriage some night and casts loose,
there may be a disarrangement of the
consultations
