DON'T LOOK LIKE

TAKEN FOR THE POPULAR IDOL
"DIAMONDFIELD JACK"

There was a cop down at the Naval
Wharf today when the Siberia came in
this morning whose sense of proportion
is badly warped.
rs that Mr.. Hartmann" asked a
local capitalist of newspaperman as
the railroad magnate stepped into an
automobile.
1T is was the answer.
"Yuss," said the cop who was stand
ing beside. That's his real name but
everybody in the states calls him Dia-
mond Fields Jack. seen it in the
paper. He's worth over twenty thou
sand dollars only he never had any edu-
cation but he spends his money easy.
He paid for the coal that brought the
Siberia down ahead of time, He don
look like spender either, does he?"

CAPTAIN OF WRECKED SHIP
SPARTAN SAYS STEAMER PASS

SIGNAL OF DISTRESS.

According to the claims of Captain
Flynn of the American ship Spartan
which went ashore near Spreckelsville
Maui Saturday the steamer Maui pass
ed him while he had signals of distress
flying from the mizzen mast and did
not offer any assistance. Captain
Flynn made this statement to people
yesterday.
He said that before his vessel ever
struck, he realized thakhe was in dan
ger and hoisted signals of distress. He
says that the steamer Maui passed the
vessel and signalled that she would
come back from Kahului and stand by.
But she never appeared and the Spar
tan finally was swept to to the rocks
and lost.

MAILS WERE
LEFT BEHIND

The mail received this morning by
the Siberia, though nominally repre-
senting 81 : days, was quite incom-
plete According to these on the ship
a big pile of bags of mail was left on
the wharf as tie ship pulled out. From
what can be gathered, it is certain that
no registered mail whatever was
brought, at least half of the letter mail
was left behind and about two-thirds
OF the paper mail came through. The
number of bags received here was 217
only two of these being letter pouches.

coAL VESSEL wREcKEp.

While bound from Newcastle to Kaa-

day on the rocks off Spreckelsville,
Maui. The vessel was going to Kahu-
lua to be entered at the custom house

master says, 30 fathoms, but when the
lead showed only five fathoms, he
dropped his anchor. They would not

STANDARD OIL GAS T.?

The expected has happened il the report is true
cernng the purchase by the Standard Oil company of the
property interests in the Lowe Gas companies Of Los An
gees and Pasadena The report merely to the effect
that negotiations purchase in progress. The
Standard Oil magnates have habit of getting what they
go after however and the deal really pending there
is not much cause for doubt about the outcome.
The entry of the Standard Oil company into the gas
field of San Francisco foreshadows similar movement
in Los Angeles That company has been for several
years reaching out in the gas supply line, The large
tion of oil magnates long and they have tens
of millions of dollars invested in it, The possibilities
of using oil as substitute for coal in the manufacture
OF gas as developed in Los Angeles and elsewhere
this coast may have been factor in leading the Stand
ard Oil company to enter the field of gas supply Cali
fornia.
The opportunity presented in Los Angeles for in
attention of the sagacious magnaes of the Standard
company time ago. No doubt they have been
acquainted with the wretched service of the local
Germ that has had practical monopoly Of the gas sup
ply and probably they have been of the persistent
efforts of that in barring competition The
presumable handicap of the Lowe companies for lack
of adequate capital would naturally call attention the
possibilities afforded by the unlimited capital at their
command.
The adage Competition is the life of trade" is ap
plicable in all business affairs. Such competition in the
gas supply as is promised in San Francisco would be
welcomed in Los Angeles.

THE clrYs FINANCIAL soLlDlTY

The first week of the new year affords a striking in
dication of the solidy of the financial underpinnng
of Los Angeles no period the history Of the city
have the banks shown such marked signs of the public
prosperity they evince at the present time. The
footings at the beginning of 1906 show increase
of resources as compared with the statements at the
start in 1904 aggregate in deposits Of the
commercial banks, and of the savings institutions
WELL is remarkable for city of the size of Los An
geles
Even experienced bankers seem to have underesti-
mated the financial soidty of the city when they
pressed some apprehension about the effect the local
money market Of the withdrawal from circulation of
something like $25OO000 in the hands of the city treas
It was large to take from current bank
and lock up in vault but the least fnan-
cial friction seems to have resulted No such effect in
any line of legitimate business has been noticeable.
Ample funds have been available for all business pur-
poses and expansion in building has gone ahead with
increasing momentum.
The standing of Los Angeles in the great money
marts of the east is the best evidence of the citys
financial sodity No higher compliment to its standing
could be paid than that accorded to it by the state of
New York, whose legislature placed Los Angeles on
level with the substantial big eastern cities by permit
ting the most closely guarded of its fducary institutions
to invest money in Los Angeles bonds
other feature the metropolitan characeris-
tics of this city clearly apparent than in the bust
ness of its banks both commercial and savings The
growth of the commercial banks in number and in re-
sources within the last three four years affords
truthful index of the citys business expansion while
the large increase savings banks deposits aess the
prosperity of the whole community.

A TWO-SIDED QUESTION

1t is obvious that the temperance people of Los An
geles have a formidable weapon in the initiative and
referendum for their warfare against the liquor traffic
1t is entirely weapon here with the exception
of it's in deposing member of the city council a
few months ago That experience sufficient to DEM
onstrate it's possibilities and to prove its potency
BY dealing directly with citizens now proposed,
the temperance people have opportunity to make
their arguments effective There is doubt that the
number of signatures obtained to bring
the prohibition issue popular vote 1t may be con-
ceded, therefore, that the movement now so zeaously
begun will at least reach the point of referring the fate
of the liquor traffic in Los Angeles directly to the voters
What will be the result the polls? Ardent friends
of the prohibition contend that their victory is
assured They argue that a large percentage of men
rore or less addicted the liquor habit will gladly
embrace the opportunity to Danish the traffic from the
city From the moral and sentimental standpoint it
tainly looks if the prohibition proposition might
carry in popular vote.
But there is another consideration to be reckoned
with 1t is not sentimental but practical 1t involves
plain business question that will have great weight
with the average Los Angeles voter when he comes
to record his the prohibition issue.
What would be the effect in a business of such
absolute prohibition is outlined in the crusade?
the first place Los Angeles is largely interested in
the production and native California wines The
wine industry of the most important in the state
Shall this vast industry be literally wiped out?
Again. what would be the effect of absolute prohibi-
tion on Los Angeles as a Mecca for travellers at all
seasons the year and particularly in what call the
tourist season? These travellers mainly class
who are accustomed to judging for themselves what
they shall and drink No city in the United States
of the size of Los Angeles is absolutely dry" If the
hotels and restaurants of Les Angeles be prohibited
from supplying their guests with what they are accus-
toned elsewhere viii the business of such esab-
lishments be injured greatly?
While the average Los Angeles citizen probably
favors rigorous restraint and regulation of the liquor
traffic it is doubtful say the least, whether the
hibition proposition would be indorsed al the polls

Full skirts in round lengths are the
most fashionable of all models for oc-
oasions of formal dress and are ex-
oeedingly graceful and becoming. This
one is quite novel and is so arranged
as to give the plain effect at the front
which always is desirable. AS illus
trated the material is peach colored
messaline satin, but all fabrics that
are soft and pliable enough to allow
of shirring are equally correct.
The skirt is made with the circular
upper portion and the flounce which is
made in three sections. Each section
of the flounce is gathered to form a
heading and again below that point
and the joinings are made on the lines
of the upper shirrngs. The skirt is
shirred at the belt and is closed invis-
IDLY at the center back,
The quantity of material required for the
medium size is II yards 2l inches wide
