ONE Of HAYS
JURORS IS ILL
CASE HAS BEEN CONTINUED
UNTIL MONDAY
VICTORY FOR PROSECUTION
Judge WeIIborn Denies All Motions
of Defense Tending to Reduce
Counts In the In
dictment

One of the jurors in the Hays case
was suddenly taken ill yesterday after
noon, so that further proceedings had
to be continued.
John Macarthur, a retired capitalist
of Ocean Park, is the juror who became
sick during the progress Of the trial
yesterday and it was necessary to sum-
mon a physician.
Attorneys for the defense announced
that they would introduce no witnesses
or evidence for Hays. However, q
stipulation of the documents which will
go before the jury was made.
Judge Wellborn stated that he will
allow but three days for arguments,
commencing Monday morning. This
will give the case to the jury by
Thursday.
Yesterday afternoon the court denied
all motions made by the defense tend
ing to strike out any of the counts in
the indictment against Hays. This was
stinging blow for the defense, for if
they had been successful in their efforts
to reduce the number of counts Hays
chances of acquittal would have been
much better.

To consider plans for a worlds fair
in Los Angeles In 1909 one hundred OF
the city's most prominent men, to-
rether with a supplementary list Of
we'll known men Of this part OF the
state is being chosen. When this Is
complete invitations will be sent to
each requesting him to attend a meet
ing of the committee thus formed to
be held at the chamber of commerce
on a date which will be decided upon
SO soon as the list of names is COM
plete.
The object of this meeting is to dis
cuss ways and means, and the feasl-
bility Of the scheme. In this manner
1t is thought an expression of the feel
ing of the general business and civil
community on the subject can be had.
Secretary w. E. Spaulding of the
Civil Service commission yesterday ex-
pressed himself as being heartily in
favor of holding the worlds fair in
Los Angeles, declaring that, in his be-
lief it would be a good thing for the
city.
IT believe it would be a great thing
for Los Angeles" said Dr. Walter
Lindley yesterday. Los Angeles is
always in the public eye and why
shouldn't we hold a worlds fair here.
I believe 1t could be made a success"
LOS Angeles is annually visited by
thousands of tourists said Council
man Kern yesterday land I do not
see why we should not hold fair
here. The annual crop of tourists is
as large as the outside attendance of
the worlds fairs in the east, and be-
lieve that should Los Angeles hold
one 1t would double the tourist travel
and make the exposition a success"
