Los Angeles, March 23.-In good
faith and meaning what they say,
syndicate of Los Angeles capitalists
has made a proposition to the city
attorney and board of police commits
sioners, which, If it were adopted,
would revolutionize the saloon busi-
ness here. Their plan is to Ameri-
canize the Gutenberg plan and apply
1t here, assuring the city of an ample
return financially and being certain
that they themselves would make an
enormous profit.
They propose to have the present
zoe licenses revoked and instead SO
or as licenses issued to the company.
They would place their saloons in
charge of competent persons under
such regulations as do not now exist
in any American city. Treating
would be considered a msdemeanor.
Coffee and soft drinks would be
served. as well as intoxicants, and a
forfeit would be paid for every drink
sold to an intoxicated person. The
drinking places would be made at
tractive, and the prices uniform.
But for the fact that this PROPOSE
ton is seriously backed by a number
of men of wealth it would be taken as
a joke, but the proponents offer to
guarantee the city $1So,OOO per year
for the exclusive privilege and to
spend a liberal amount in public i'm
provements.
The syndicate will make the for
NAL offer, ana itf 1T is refused will as

San Francisco. March 23-The Call
says today: 1t is announced at police
headquarters that within the next As
hours the mystery surrounding the
presence of strychnine poison in the
bottle of Poland water with which
Mrs. Stanford quenched her thirst on
the evening of January IA, at her
California street home, will have
been completely solved, and that pos
sibly one or two persons toward whom
the strongest suspicion is directed
will be arrested.
As to whether the poison was plac-
ed in the bottle before the water was
drunk by Mrs. Stanford for the pur-
pose of ending her life or injected in
to the bottle after she had drunk
from it,, with malicious intent toward
Miss Berner the police refuse to say.
An entire new aspect is given the
Stanford case by publication of an

ed the Honolulu mystery, the contents
