that the Navy team captained by Douglass

THE PRESIDENTS TRIP.
Hoe He Spent the Day at Princeton

Princeton, N. J.. Dec. 2-President RooseveIt's
day in Princeton was a memorable one From
the moment he stepped from his train until he
departed for the capital he was cheered and
cheered in the most enthusiastic way The Presi-
dents special train arrived at the little Prince
to- station at 1922 p m. He was warmly
greeted by the two thousand persons who had
assembled on the edge of the campus to see him
arrive Jersey City police and Secret Service
men were in charge of the arrangements at the
station
The President and Mrs Roosevelt were well
coined by President woodrow Wilson, and after
the greetings were over the party entered car
riages and started for Prospect. the home of Dr..
Wilson The policemen led the way and four
mounted guards surrounded the carriage in
which were the President and Mrs. Roosevelt,
Secretary Root and DIR. Wilson. In the car
riages following were Mr.. and Mrs. Douglas
Robinson, Miss Corinne Robinson. Captain and
Mrs CowIes and Secretary. Loeb. The route OF
the little procession from the station to Dr. VIII
sons home lay along Nassau-st., Princeton's
principal thoroughfare. The party remained at
DR.. wilson's house until 2 p m, when it went
to the game.

COLUMBIA WANTS A TRAINER.
May Ask Maxey Long or A. H. Copeland
to Handle the Track Team

The Columbia track team has been hampered in
its work this fall by the lack of trainer. None
has been engaged as yet. but DIR. Meylan, director
of the Columbia gymnasium has been directing
the work of the men. He has been assisted by A.
IT Davis who is an instructor in the gymnasium.
The MANAGEMENT is now the lookout for a
trainer TO take complete charge of the team j.
r Hoyt the manager says that the choice lies be
tween two men. A. F. Coveland trainer OF the
New-YOrk Athletic Club and Maxwell (MaXeyl
" Long 'O1 holder of the worlds record for 440
yards. .1,.
Copeland has had experience in training athletes
At vale and is the one generally favored. Long has
been out of athletics for some dne and. as he has
never done any training it seems doubtful whether
he would make suitable director for the team.
Charles EIdredge, '7S who expected to take
charge Of the team, cannot come for another
month and when he does it will probably be in
the capacity of general supervisor of track ath-
ietcs as well as having managerial duties in other
branches of sport.

FIGHT ON CORRAL
AND OIL WELLS
ELYSIAN PARK NEIGHB0RHOOD
IN TROUBLE
Residence Say Providence Saved
Them Once, but They Are Not
Willing Again to Trust to
That Agency

Powers of good and evil have been
contending for supremacy in the neigh
borhood of Elysian park, according to
committee Of property owners from
that vicinity, who appeared before the
fire commission yesterday morning
and asked that an oil refinery and a
livestock corral be removed from their
midst.
Providence seems to be protecting
the community from raging fires from
the livestock corral, while the devil is
running a branch inferno with the oil
refinery. George S. Robinson graphic
ally described these conditions for the
petitioners yesterday in his plea for
their removal but the commission was
not prepared to arbitrarily order men
to shut up shop and go out of bus-
hess, and long consultation will be
held with the city attorney before any
thing is done.
The first complaint which the petition
crs made was against a livestock cor
raj i'm the neighborhood, in which forty
horses and mules are kept, together
with a hundred tons of hay. Fire
started i'm this corral short time ago,
but was eXtinguished before much
damage was done, and the petitioners
stated in their communication that
they belitved they were especially pro-
tected by providence in that disas-
trOuS COnflagration did not ensue. But
they are unwilling to leave it to provi-
dence a second time, and asked the
commission to revoke the permit.
While providence has been con-
trolling one nuisance of the neighbor-
hood, the residents say his satanic
majesty has been influencing another.
and it is against the agency of the
evil one that the petitioners most
earnestly pray for relief. They will
almost gladly submit to the livestock
corral if the oil refinery operated by
Parker, Morrill, & OFT on Metcalfe
street, near Temple is Immediately
elected from the vicinity
THE fumes and stencil from the oil
wells and watts are so strong that the
houses for blocks around must be en-
trely shut up at night i'm order that
the residents may sleep" said Mr..
Robinson. Directly across the street
and in the immediate vicinity the
women are afraid to light fires to cook
the MONDAY meal for fear the gas
that has filled their houses will eX-
plode, and sometimes they eat cold
meals rather than take the risk of
striking a match
In Mayor McAleer the petitioners
found a ready sympathizer.
"Those same conditions prevailed in
my home for years." said the mayor,
"and 1 don't see any means of getting
rid of them"
I'VE have stood this nuisance for ten
years, and we believe that patience has
ceased to be q virtue" said Mr. Rob-
inson. 1T has been a detriment to
our property. In the last seven years
the tax assessment has only been
raised $1OOO when under other condi-
tions it should have been hundred
times that amount"
The city attorney will be asked to
pass on the case and find some means
of relief.

| have reached, therefore, the climax OF
their usable value. and must wait for
a legitimate increase till the population
increases correspondingly
This boom we had at some Of the
beaches-I was afraid that would reach
Los Angeles, but it didn't. I think the
banks saved the city again, by their
conservatism. 1t was pretty wild down
on the shore people bought with the
sole idea of selling again; no one bought
to build or to hold. Why, ] know one
case of a woman who came to me with
tears in her eyes and told me of her eX-
perience. She had gone to RedOndo
at the height of the excitement and had
bought a lot with 5000 her husband had
given her for another purpose, and she
had to pay $l00 more. 1t was pitiful.
That sort of speculation has reached
its climax.
AS to city property, l base my esti-
mates on the same basis-its usable
value. But people buy lots here to
build on. A man gets his land, and he
puts up some sort of home, and lives
there That is legitimate value, then,
to him-and to the rest of the COM
munity.
II thought rental property was too
high here, but | have changed my mind.
l have talked to dealers who make a
speciality of such lands, and they say
that everything habitabe is rented, and
in demand and that they cannot accom-
mOdate the tenants. City property, I
therefore believe, is in good condition.
and conservative in value"
Mr.. Patterson leaned back again and
was silent few moments.
Consolidation Sign of Times
"The consolidation of these banks is
a sign of the times" he resumed. big
affairs demand big handling. Business
is consolidating in all lines and the
banks must come together to care for
it. [ do not know of any others pend
ing; no. But this one supplies an in
stitution that the city needs, and we
felt that we must meet the demand.
Il do not know what effect it will
have on me personally. | step down"
he said it almost with a sigh, land in
stead of the head I become a vice presi-
dent. l do not know how that will af-
feet my standing here.
But l believe in Los Angeles and in
it's future; I have had faith in it in the
past. I have tried to help make it,
have given almost 40 per cent. of my
working time gratuitously and gladly
to public affairs; | have been member
and director and president of the cham"
Der of commerce, and of the board of
trade; l am now on the school board
and have done what | could for the
city's advancement. This enlarged
bank is a necessity here, and 1 am will
ing to make what personal sacrifice is
required to bring it about. | know the
good that it will do"
Los Angeles herald., 1905-10-15
ORANGE Crop a Factor

"Do the crop movements affect us?
''NOt to sneak of OF course when
the orange crop moves we have to pre-
pare for it. Prior to its movement the
country banks draw heavily on Us for
the funds needed and their balances
are reduced materially, but after the
sales are made the money returns and
their balances are increased accord
ingly. Last year our orange crop was
10000 carloads, and | understand that
it will run to 40, 900 cars this year. Oh,
the country banks will have big bal
anCes here later on.
I'm the same way that the south feels
the movement of the cotton crop, the
middle west the corn crop and the
northwest the wheat crop we feel the
orange crop movement, but the indie
pendence of this region of Wall street
and New York influences leaves it i'm
better condition than any of the
others
what about the real estate activity?
What effect has it,
Il am pretty conservative In real es-
tate" said Mr. Patterson, slowly. MY
wife thinks | am too conservative
He smiled and his eyes tWinkled. Mr.
Patterson has a peculiar smile; it be-
gins down in the corner of his mouth
under his heavy mustache and creeps
upward over his face till his eyes twin
kle. His is a face of almost stern lines
and immutable as that of the sphinx
which is very popular in banker One
cannot read his thoughts that is a
trait invaluable. But when one notes
the twitch and droop OF the corners Of
his mouth-provided one can see
through the curtain of grey that largely
conceals them-one may know that he
isn't so stern as he let's on to be to the
general run of men. One can well
imagine that MI Patterson could tell
bully joke did he take the notion-and
there he some who say that he does
spin a funny yarn when off duty.
But he that as it may he smiled at
his own vatism-though probably
the fellow who wants money for a wild
in it-and a his wifes accusation of
overcaution.
'I believe" he went on rather slowly,
chat some real estate here has about
reached its climax"
"Do you mean that it will now. hav-
ing reached its height, begin to go
dOwn?"
mo; not by any means. I refer now
not so much to city property as l do to
outside properties
Aftetr a pause he resumed;
"I base my estimate of property on
its usable value; the worth of it for
use, at the price asked. Property bought
merely for speculation is different.
Beach Lots at Top Notch

and held the reins in check and saved
the city. There was depression, it is
true, but it wasn't what it would have
been otherwise.
That was also a time of learning to
the banks They saw that a large
cash reserve is necessary, to be pre-
pared for anything that may come;
that you can never tell when a slight
furry may start and that you must
have the money i'm your vaults in an
ticipation of such a time. This city is
a week away from New York, and
while all the banks carry heavy bal
ances there. they must have the same
here. because people won't wait week
for them to send to New York when
thev want money to meet demands
The banks that had big cash reserves
on hand in 1SS7-S did not close their
doors and suspend payment. 1t is my
rule always to have 10 per cert more
than the law requires, which is % per
cent. in coin. and we have more than
81 900. 900 in cash in our valuts today,
Timd Men Start Run
aft is never the heavy depOsitors or
tbe wise ones who start a run on
bank. 1t is the timid, small fellows.
It would take a long time and much
physical work to pay out a million
dollars"
And Mr.. Patterson smiled in a know
ing way.
"Then the financial sky here is per-
fectly clear?"
"Perfectly; here and elsewhere. on
I see that call money has been in de
mand in New York even at 20 per cent
within the last week, but that indicates
nothing. 1t simply means that in hand
ling some of their enormous transac-
tiors some people have needed money
very badly for a short time. Call
loans. you see. are only made for day
at a time and when the money Is lent
today it is due at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning. While 20 per cent may look
big, vet remember that at the rate of
20 per cent a year. one days interest is
a very small matter. or course 20 per
cent is high, but not bearing in any way
on us we have no worry about it."
"Then Los Angeles doesn't depend on
New York financially?'
Not at all We are almost indepen-
dent of the metropolis. of course New
York is the financial center of the
United States. and as say, we all
carry heavy balances there. But we
are not in any way affected by Wall
street: we have no speculative intiu-
ences here in that way and the fluctua-
tions there are not felt here at all. We
are fortunate in being perhaps the most
independent financial part of the coun-
try"
Los Angeles herald., 1905-10-15
Beach Lots at Top Notch

"Take beach lots for instance. They
have in many cases reached a price
at which the average man canot afford
to buy one and use it: if he buys it it
is with the idea of selling it again at
500 or so advance. Beach lots. largely.
Los Angeles herald., 1905-10-15

Always ToTeWarnSo
I'VE are particularly fortunate in
that respect" Mr.. Patterson went on,
earnestly, because we usually have
warning of them out here. Periods of
depression there will be from time to
time, though I can see no indication
of any now. They usually start in the
east and it takes one about a year to
reach this far. This gives us chance
to prepare for one if it starts.
The way to be prepared for trouble
is to have plenty Of cash reserve on
hand i'm the banks and to be conserva-
tive. The banks saved Los Angeles
in 1878, at the time of the boom here.
They were very conservative and re-
fused to lend money on every kind of
scheme. Lots of people would have
gone broke then if they could have
obtained funds to finance their
schemes. But the banks stood firm
