THREE FACE MURDER CHARGE
Police Courts Busy With Serious
Cases

Three men charged with murder APP
peared in the police courts yesterday
for examination. The arraignment of
Charles Murray, a bookkeeper for the
Cudahy Packing company, charged
with the murder of Charles Foss, a
watchman, on December 26. occupied
the entire day in Justice Chambers
court.
Shortly before the afternoon session
Frank Rojeros, the Italian who has
confessed to stabbing Jack Cresello,
peanut vender, several days ago, was
taken to court and charge of murder
made against him. He will be taken
to court this afternoon to plead, and
an Italian paper has furnished an at
torney for him.
The aged Russian, L. c. Merkel, who
is charged with the murder of his wife
and her friend several weeks ago, was
taken to Justice Austin's court yester-
day afternoon for examination. The
old man was arraigned several weeks
ago, but an error in the complaint ne
cessitated another examination and he
will be allowed to plead Thursday af-
ternoon.

NAMES
MANY CHARGES
DEPUTY SUSPENDED BY HIS
CHIEF
III Feeling in City office Under the
Old Administration Thought to
Be the Cause Of
Trouble

Assessor Lewis yesterday suspended
Chief Deputy Nunnaley and filed
charges of official neglect against him
before the civil service commission.
No meeting of the commission was
held Tuesday evening, and as yet no
date has been fixed for the hearing
Of the charges. Under the charter,
the head of department may suspend
for not longer than thirty days.
The charges against Nunnaley cover
the whole decalogue as known to civil
service. Pernicious activity in politics,
Incompetence, absence from duty and
neglect, lack of executive ability and
good judgement and abuse of official
trust are the general specifications.
No specific charges are given.
Nunnaley says he will put up a
strong fight to retain his position.
81 am not afraid of any charges that
have been or may be brought. Mr.. Lewis
simply wants my job. He does not
like me and has already promised
the place to a man who worked
for him politically. l shall contest the
case as far as possible. 1 believe
that L am safe in saying that the evi-
dence will be all in my favor" is Nun
naley's statement.
Lewis has privately elaborated on
his general charges and declares that
the chief deputy has watched the
horses run too often. The assessor
is reticent in regard to specific incl
dents of "abuse of official trust"
1t is expected that the civil service
commission will be given a picture of
the internal warfare existing in the
office under former Assessor Wismer
and that deep investigation will show
that the enmties engendered then are
largely responsible for the latest de-
velopments.
Nunnaley's friends say that they will
strike back and that the next move in
the war will be charges against N. B,
Conrad, the deputy who is next in line
to Nunnaley and who will be promoted
in the event of Nunnaley's permanent
discharge.

Catarrh of the stomach has long

accompanied sometimes with sour or

secure a prompt and healthy digestion

when normal digestion is secured the

According to DIR. Harlanson the
safest and best treatment is to use

OBJECTING TO LICENSE
Attorney Protests Against Change in
Location

Attorney Walter Haas appeared be-
fore the police commission Tuesday to
renew his protest against the sa-
loon license of T. C. Bowe at 31S South
Spring street.
The license was granted by the
former commission. Mr.. Haas said
the grant was made in violation of
the rules of the commission and the
wishes of a majority of the property
owners in the block.
Later it developed that Bowe at one
time held a license that was revoked.
He was then given a license on San
Fernando street. The protest concerns
an application to transfer locations

VICTIM OF CAR unidentified
Mexican Killed by a Pacific Electric
Coach

An unidentified Mexican, presumably
about 60 years old, was killed at Baird
station, near Pasadena, yesterday af-
ternoon and his body was taken to
Pierce Bros, undertakers, in Los An
geles. The Mexican was killed by a
car on the Pasadena short line, his
skull being crushed. He appears to
have been a Mexican of the better class,
his clothing indicating that he was not
a laborer.
There was not even scrap of paper
or any other article on his person by
which his identity could be established.

A protest has been fled with the

Says Streets Are Dirty
Talk about dirty streets. The resi-
dents of Los Angeles will never know
what unclean streets are until they
visit st. Louis. Our streets are not
what they should be. 1 know that;
but they are not nearly as unsightly
and unhealthy as those of the large
eastern cities. We should clean up
and make our city more attractive
and pleasant for the strangers who
come here, and am ready to do my
part. I am pleased TO learn that a
movement has been made to that end
in the right direction"
Secretary Virgins has been away
from Los Angeles for ten months and
ten days, and he may be called upon for
another trip. The exposition at Port
land, Ore, will open in a few months
and he may be required to represent
the southland at that big show. In
the meantime Mr.. Virgins will give his
whole attention to his duties as sec
retary of the chamber of commerce
and not borrow trouble. His friends
say he has earned a rest but he is not
disposed to take it. He probably con-
siders the performance of his official
duties as play as compared to the
hard work he has gone through at St.
Louis.

LOADED UP in VAIN.
A Speech That Sumner Didn't Get an
Opportunity 70 Deliver.

1t was a function of the judiciary
committee OF. the senate, of which
Senator Trumbull was the chair
man, to attend to the furnishing Of
the old senate chamber with busts
of eminent judges who had sat on
the supreme bench. In the dis
charge Of this Office Senator Trum-
bull offered a resolution in the SEN
ate that a bust of the late Chief
Justice Taney should be placed
there along with the busts Of his
predecessors. Immediately Mr.. Sum
ner warmly objected to this meas
ure on the ground that Taney's de-
cision made in the Dred Scott case
"a decision generally obnoxious to
people hostile to slavery-was too
offensive and infamous to render it
fit to grant this honor to its author.
Trumbull in telling this story smiled
as he said that it had seemed to him
that even if Taney might have
fallen into q legal error OF been ex-
tremely blameworthy it might still
be natural TO want to see how he
looked
The fire Of Mr. Summers protest,
however, led to a postponement Of
the resolution. Trumbull observed
that Sumner speedily went to work
to hunt up in the Congressional Ii
brary and 10 bring from its shelves
book after book on the lives and
misconduct Of iniquitous judges in
the past and to deposit them in a
huge pile by his desk in the senate
chamber, his intention being to
draw from these some illustrations
Of detestable judicial decisions, the
authors Of which might be seen in
! the pillory and classed with the
judge who presided in the Dred
Scott case. After waiting for the
Objectionable resolution to be called
up for action Mr.. Sumner, who had
taken time enough to compose an
elaborate philippe, inquired of
Trumbull when the resolution
would be called up anew. To this
question an evasive reply was made
then and perhaps more than once.
The upshot Of the incident was that
no opportunity was given to deliver
the harangue which Mr.. Sumner had
been laboriously getting ready to
fortify from the contents of the pile
Of books at the side of his desk.
After the gun had been loaded with
so much painstaking no chance
was afforded to discharge it.-Dr.
George P. Fisher in Seribner's.

STORIES SOFTHEDAY
RIsked Life to SAVE DOG.

There was considerable excitement
along the Brandywine one Sunday sew
eral weeks ago, caused by we'll
known young business man wadlng ia
water up to his neck 90 save "a dog
from being drowned The canine had
only been purchased several days
previous TO the accident ana was a fun
blooded English bull pup.
on this Sunday the owner had his
dos out for a walk. along the park
walk. When near the third dam the
puppy ran down the emhankment and
out into the water. il happened that
Just at that point there was strong
current, the canine was carried out
into the stream.
The young business man saw al a
glance that unless something was done
az once his pet would be drowned.
Without waiting to even take off his
coat, he jumped into the stream and
started TO wade out after the dog. The
young man had no idea that the water
was so deep ana as the current con-
tinued to carry the animal out, ne was
up to his neck before he rescued the
dog, which was about exhausted and
would probably have drowned had he
been a minute later.
A large crowd had congrogated alone
tho bank and cheered the owner when
he brought his English pup safe 10
shore. The young business man hur-
ried to his home to change his clothes
ana fortunately did not suffer any bad
results from the plunge.
