THOUGHT OF WOOD FOR PANAMA

Washington, July 13,-In view OF
the Presidents praise OF the execu.
tive methods of General Leonard
Wood, there Is little room for doubt
that the next Army order to be issued
Will be one detachng General Wood
from his division and detailing him
for duty on the isthmus.
Officers of the Army already serv'
ing in connection with the canal who
are still in Washington are united In
the belief that the man whose good
military and sanitary work In Cuba
called forth praise will be made SUI
pervising chief of labor on canal con
struction. All Army men are not fond
of the General personally, but they
will be one in hailing the appointment
! of the Army man who will see that
things are done-come fight, food OF
fever.

HUSBAND FAITHLESS;
WOMAN SEEKS DEATH
Brokenhearted Mrs. Edward Baggs
Attempts to Kill
Herself

After finding that her husband had
proved false to her, and after having
attempted to end her misery by slash
ing her wrists Mrs. Edward B. Baggs,
a comely young woman who arrived in
Los Angeles Saturday, returned to San
Francisco yesterday morning.
Mrs. Baggs told a pathetic story
before her departure for the north.
According to the story, Baggs, the
husband, came to Los Angeles during
January from San Francisco and Sc
cured employment as a cook at Levy s
restaurant Shortly after his arrival
he is said to have been Joined by a
young woman whom he met at the
Lick house in San Francisco before his
departure.
Mrs. Baggs pawned her diamond
ring for $3.50 Saturday and came to Los
Angeles. When she arrived here she
went to the Metropolitan hotel, and
learning of the faithlessness of her
husband, attempted to commit suicide
by slashing her wrists. The blade
proved too dull and she recovered.

SAYS STOCK WAS WORTHLESS
Woman Sues to Recover on a Bad
Transaction

Claiming that she was 'taken in by
fraudulent representations in a busi-
ness transaction, Mrs. Ella B. Squires
filed suit yesterday in the superior
court against Mrs. Mary e. Seabert,
for damages in the sum of $4,000.
1t appears from the complaint that
in March, 1904, the plaintiff delivered to
the defendant a deed to property To-
Gated in Los Angeles and valued at
$1,000
The complaint further says that in
payment for the property conveyed
Mrs. Seabert agreed to pay off a mort
gage on the property amounting to
$2750, also to pay $165 in cash and in
final settlement to turn over forty
shares of stock issued by the South
western Commercial company of Ari-
zona, of the par value of $10O a share.
The complaint asserts that the de-
fendant fraudulently claimed that the
company was solvent, and that it
owned and operated five stores in the
territory.
Mrs. Squires says she found the
stock to be worthless and that the
company was never on paying basis,
and she asks the court to award her
damages in the sum of $4,000, which
she says was represented as the par
value of the stock.

TWO MEASURES PASSED
OVER MAYORS VETO
Assistant Police Surgeons Appointed
in Spite of Executives
Protest

AS was expected the council yester-
day morning passed the ordinance
creating two assistant police surgeons
and appointed Doctor Charles Bonynge
and c. Freedman to the positions thus
created, over the mayors veto. This
Il the first ordinance that the present
council has passed over the mayors
head.
Some time ago the council appointed
two police surgeons, Doctors Quint and
Smith being the appointees. When the
council created the positions of assis-
tants the mayor considered that the
two new men were not needed and so
sent the measure back without his
signature.
The council took different view
however, and after looking over the
report for last year and noting the
number of cases treated decided that
the new surgeons were necessity,
and yesterday confirmed their first
action by an almost unanimous vote.
Mayor McAleer also returned the
ordinance requiring sign painters to
pay a quarterly license of $25 as being
unfair, but a delegation of prominent
sign painters appeared before the
council and asked that the measure be
adopted, and it became a law as the
necessary five voted AYE"

NEW SALOON FOR
GREEN MEADOWS
SUPERVISORS TURN DOWN
RESIDENTS PROTESTS
People Of Ascot Park Who Voted
"Wet" and Then Repented Get
Little Consideration From
the Board

In spite of the protest entered by
many of the representative citizens of
the Green Meadows precinct, the board
OF supervisors yesterday granted a re-
tail liquor license to William Y. New
lands.
A week ago the anti-liquor forces of
the district turned out in force to pro-
test against the granting of liquor IL
censes in the district.
Judge Charles Silent appeared before
the board as one of the protestants,
and in an address of some length he
voiced the sentiments of citizens who
live in the Green Meadows precinct.
The voters in the district say they
were given to understand that ifVthey'
voted for the "wet" period only one
license would be granted, and that was
to be to the management of Ascot
park.
1t is asserted by the property owners
that the granting of liquor licenses
IN the district will mean a great de-
preciation of property values, and many
of the improvements now contemplated
will not be made.
A number of residents in the precinct
claim that the politicians have violated
their prediction pledge in connection
with the saloon license question, and
interesting developments in the situa-
ton are looked for.

RESCUES MANIAC
FROM DROWNING
DEPUTY SHERIFF DRAGS PRIS-
0NER FROM RIVER
Insane Patient on Way to Highland
Jumps From Depot Window
Into Torrent In Hope
of Escape

Exciting and picturesque was the
thrilling rescue yesterday by Deputy
Sheriff Harry Wilson of Henry p. Cor
don, an insane man, who attempted to
commit suicide by hurllng himself into
the raging Los Angeles river, thirty
minutes after he had created a panic
in the vicinity of the county Jail by
attempting to escape from the officers.
Laboring under the delusion that he
was the champion long distance rum
ner of the world, Gordon jumped frorn
the wagon in the service Of the county
hospital and with a cry of exultation
that startled pedestrians for many
blocks, he bounded for freedom.
The weird cries of the man only
served as warning to the quiet resi-
dents of the neighborhood in the vi
cinity of the county Jail and in few
seconds he was being hotly pursued by
an armed force of deputy sheriffs n
number of lawyers, judges and citizens.
Deputy Sheriff Hutchinson, the
heavyweight" of the local constab-
ulary, led the race for the first seven
ty yards, but directly in front of the
house at 106 Buena Vista street the
big sheriff fell and decided to return
to guard and watch over number of
other insane men huddled together in
the county hospitals wagon in front
of the Jail.
Deputy Sheriff Hubbard, in charge of
the insane ward at the hospital fell
from exhaustion six feet from the
summit of the hill.
BY this time the entire section of
the city in the vicinity of the Jail had
been aroused and the posse" made
up of automobiles, motor cycles, light
running carriages and men on foot,
were hot on the trail of the wild man.
At this juncture of the exciting
chase, Under Sheriff Yonkin arrived
upon the scene and captured the
maniac.
Shortly before 430 o'clock yesterday
afternoon while Deputy Sheriff Harry
Wilson was purchasing tickets for
Highlands at the Downey avenue sta
tion, Gordon, in spite of the fact that
he was securely handcuffed, leaped
through the window of the Downey
avenue station and after running a few
feet to the river bluff he plunged into
the raging stream below.
Wilson plunged in after his prisoner
and at last succeeded in bringing him
ashore.
