TRAIN CREWS TO
USE SETELEGRAPH0N
NEW DEVICE INSTALLED BY
SOUTHERN PACIFIC
METHOD INSURES SAFETY
Local Division Will Be Equipped With
Invention Which May Be Ex-
tended Throughout the
Entire System

Telegraphones, the new instruments
which make it possible to use telegraph
wires for communication by telephone,
have been supplied to all the passenger
crews of the Los Angeles division of
the Southern Pacific and the railroad
company now is prepared to give the
invention it's first practical test in
California.
By means of the telegraphone the
conductor or engineer of any train
may be placed in direct communication
with the dispatcher at the end of the
division within two minutes after the
train has been brought to a stop. The
instrument is hung to the side walls
of one of the cars and the connecting
wires are brought in contact with the
telegraph wire by an extension rod re-
sembling fishing pole.
1t is claimed for the telegraphone
that it Is of inestimable value in case
of wrecks, washouts or other acci-
dents.
Should officials of this division find
the invention to come up to their ex-
pectations it is the ultimate intention
of the Southern Pacific management
to similarly equip the entire system.

RAILWAY OFFICIALS GO
TO ATTEND CONFERENCE
Differences Between Salt Lake and
Southern Pacific Are to Be
Discussed Monday

General Freight and Passenger Agent
e. w. Gillett and j. Ross Clark of the
Salt Lake road left Los Angeles yes
terday for San Francisco to attend
Mondays conference which is to decide
whether or not the Clark property shall
be given terminal and switching priv
ileges by the Southern Pacific.
William Sproule, freight traffic man.
ager of the Southern Pacific, will be
the representative of his road at the
conference and although the question
has a large local significance, Assis-
tant General Freight and Passenger
Agent Parkyns will not be present.
]. Ross Clark said yesterday that it
was his belief that the dispute would
be settled satisfactorily to all parties
concerned. Railroad officials, who ad-
NIT they are not on the inside, express
themselves as doubtful of the outcome.
They say that If the Salt Lake is per-
mitted to use the switching tracks OF
the Southern Pacific the privilege viii
be gained only by paying a large sum
of money.
Should the conference bring no re-
suits it is probable that the Salt Lake
will be forced to build its own spurs
to get into the warehouse and maui
featuring district.

HANCOCK FAMILY
FEARS THE FEVER
MILLIoNAIRE'S BODY WILL NOT
BE REMOVED UNTIL FALL
DAUGHTER is RECOVERING
Danger From Disease in the South and
Hot Weather Compel Widow to
Remain In Los
Angeles
DAUGHTER is RECOVERING

Fearful of the ravages of yellow
fever, now prevalent in the south, Mrs.
Milton T. Hancock, widow of the mill
lionaire inventor who lost his life in
an automobile accident ten days ago,
will not take the body of her husband
TO Shreveport for interment until some
time next fall.
1t was the first intention of Mrs.
Hancock and family to leave Los An
geles for Shreveport some time during
the coming week, as the fourteen-year-
old daughter Eugenia, who sustained
injuries in the automobile collision, is
now able to travel. The fever epidemic
now raging and the heat are features
of the southland, however which the
family does not care to meet at the
present time.
The body of Mr.. Hancock will be left
In the vault at Rosedale until the fam
lily is ready to accompany it south the
later part of September or the first
of October. Following the arrival in
Shreveport, the body will be placed
in the mausoleum, which was erected
eight years ago by the late capitalist.
In the interim, the family will re-
main quietly at their home on South
Park avenue.
Mrs. C. D. McNatt a daughter of
the deceased, whose residence is in
Parkton, S. c., was expected to arrive
in Los Angeles yesterday, but up until
last night no word had been received
from her and it is feared that she
may be detained by the fever quaran-
tine now in effect in many of the
cities of the gulf states.
Mrs. Hancock's stay in Los Angeles
will give her opportunity to settle
questions of business, which were be-
fore Mr.. Hancock at the time of his
death, and also to appear In the dam
age suit which John Saul. the injured
milkman, has started against the es-
tate.

BROADWAY SWELL
POSES As MASHER
FORCES HIS ATTENTIONS ON
FAIR SEX
POLICE ARE WATCHING HIM
Fashionably Attired Young Man and
His Smart Equipage Cause Many
Complaints, and Women Ask
for Protection

Beware of the Broadway "masher.'
For the past several weeks COM
plants have been made to the police
of a young man who nightly par
ades Broadway, making eyes at women
and girls who have occasion to be on
evening.
The young man was first noticed
about three weeks ago. He rented a
horse and runabout and slowly drove
women as they passed up and down
before the windows of the large depart
ment stores.
Regularly at $3.50 o'clock each even
ing the man made his appearance un-
til he came under the notice of an Of
ficer on that beat. The officer fol-
lowed and the result was interesting.
Mr.. Masher slowly drove along the
curb until he espied fair young
woman coming toward him. Then he
leaned out his runabout and said. "Ex-
cuse me, you have dropped your hand
kerchief." The girl turned and saw
no handkerchief, but the "masher''
had been right in his speculation and
he and his new friend were soon driv-
ing away together.
Masher Is Mashed
Several nights ago the 'masher" met
his match. He reached a position about
midway between Second and Third
streets on Broadway when he espied a
coy young woman standing at the
curb with her back to the street. Here
was the opportunity of lifetime and
while the woman's face could not be
seen because of the shadow and be-
cause of a heavy veil, the "masher''
considered the fine apparel and the
petite figure and resolved to make a
catch"
want to take a ride, little girl ?"
The little girl turned and stepped
into the runabout before the astonished
young man had a chance to assist her,
and as the couple drove away the pc.
destrians chuckled.
Further down the street the young
woman nestled over to her friend and
raising her VEIL said; "Wha' youah
goin,' honey?" the "masher" gasped as
he saw the ebony features OF his
"catch" and tried to persuade her to
leave, but it took several hours OF
moonlight driving before she decided
to take her departure.

Right, is heartily approved with
growing force by the intelligent
Public to which it appeals.
To read it is liberal Education,

it does a positive harm to himself,
to his family, and to the commu-
nifty.
