STEAM GIVES WAY
To ELECTRICITY
SOUTHERN PACIFIC ANNULS
SUBURBAN TRAINS
RAN THEM AT HEAVY LOSS
"Have Not Paid onesThlrd Of the
Running Expenses for the Past
Year." say Officials In De-
fense Of New Order

After a long contest between the
Southern Pacific and the Huntington
electric lines for passenger traffic to
the nearby resorts served by the two
companies, the former bows to the
inevitable and on May will remove
from service all but one train a day
each way to Long Beach, San Pedro,
Whittier, Santa Monica, Soldiers
Home and Port Los Angeles.
The only important trains remaining
in service will be those making con-
nections with the Catalina boats and
that to Port Los Angeles.
THE determination to let the cleo
trio roads take care of this suburban
traffic has only come after a long at
tempt to enter into close competition
with them" said a Southern Pacific
official yesterday. I'VE have not been
able to do this successfully. For the
past year the trains that we are TAX
ing off the time table have not paid
one-third of the running expenses.
I'VE met the reduction in rates, but
the more frequent service which they
have been able to offer and the fact
that their terminal station in Los An
geles is in the heart of the city has
given them too much of an advantage"
Ea'e Ex,,,ooIa
The Santa F'e, when the electric road
was built to Redondo, found that
steam could not compete with the troll
ley and took off it's service at once.
more costly running expenses and less
travel than that of the electric lines,
has until now continued it's regular
service.
The removal of a dozen trains, which
have carried United States mail out
from Los Angeles, will seriously Grip
pie the service to the towns along the
Southern Pacific road. Whether the
electric roads will make an effort TO
gain contracts for carrying mails to
these towns has not yet been deter
mined.
The trains still in service are as fol-
lows: For Whittier all trains dis

gees at 2:30 p. m. and 4:5O p. M. ex-

SINKS ITS FANGS
IN KEEPERS FACE
HUGE RATTLER OF CITY zoo
GOES MAD
RABE UNAWARE OF DANGER
Owes His Life to the Close Proximity
Of County Hospital and Quick
ness With Which Doctors
Used Their Knives

Struck beneath the right eye by the
poisoned fangs of a huge rattlesnake,
Head Animal Keeper Ed Rabe of the
Eastake park ZOO now lies in critical
condition at the county hospital.
That Rabe is yet alive is due to the
fact that medical attendance and the
facilities for an operation were within
a few minutes walk of the scene of
the accident, and that no time was lost
in assisting him to the hospital.
AS 1t Is his face Is n shapeless,
swollen mass of discolored flesh from
the effects of the poison, and powerful
stimulants are being administered to
keep him alive.
The accident happened Wednesday
afternoon, when Rabe stepped into
the rattler's den. Under ordinary con-
ditions he would have believed himself
in no unusual danger, as he Is known
and loved by all the animals under
his care. A moment before, however,
he had been handling a gopher snake,
always rattlesnake's antagonist.
Sprang ViciousIy at Him
The rattler scented his arch enemy
the moment the keeper entered the
cage and from the small platform on
which 1t was coiled the snake struck
viciously at Rabes face, with no sound
of warning.
Rabe darted from the snakes den,
shutting the door as he ran, and cried
to be taken to the hospital Immediately.
Two men thrust him into buggy and
drove to the hospital at breakneck
sped. At the outer gate they shouted
for the doctors. Three minutes later
Rabe was on the operating table.
AS the place where Rabe was bitten
is a network of veins and blood vessels
the poison was already well through
his system and his face was frightfully
swollen He underwent the surgeons
knives as they cut out the lacerated
portion of his wound with no show of
pain, although he was under no opiate.
Afterward a drain was inserted, in
an effort to withdraw as much of the
infected blood as possible
Last night hopes were entertained
for his recovery.

SENATOR FLINT TALKS TO
BANK CLERKS
TECHNICAL MAN MAY LOSE
Second Annual Banquet OF the Los
Angeles Chapter, American lns
stitute, Proves Great
Success

"The young bank clerks in the bank
Ing institutions of Los Angeles are
pursuing the wrong policy in the work
ing out of their ambitions. Instead Of
spending their time from early morn
ing to late evening in their own prt-
vate stall working over their one par
ticular branch of the business they
should be out endeavoring to interest
their friends in their bank and gain
ing friends for the bank and therefore
gaining popularity with the bank
president, for when the time comes for
promotion to high office the man with
the influence to bring the big deposi-
tors to his bank Is the man that is to
get the office, while the clerk, perfectly
versed in the technicalties of bank
work, will remain unpromoted."
AS Senator Frank p Flint took his
seat after voicing this opinion of local
banking methods at the second annual
banquet of the Los Angeles chapter of
the American Institute of Bank Clerks
held at the Westminster hotel last
night, a hush fell upon his hearers and
the bank presidents smiled and the
clerks looked puzzled and the bees of
rising ambition began to buzz.
The banquet was attended by nearly
two hundred members of the local
chapter besides many of the high bank
officials of Los Angeles, and was pre-
sided over by Don w. Carlton, presi-
dent.
"The Institute"
Following the serving of the banquet
Mr.. Carlton opened the program of the
evening by an address on THE Insti-
tute." The speaker gave a short and
sociation since it's birth, about five
years ago, up to the present time,
showing the rapid growth in the num-
bers and the wide interest of the bank
officials towards this branch of the
business.
Mr. Carlton was followed by F. J.
Belcher, jr., assistant cashier of the
National Bank of California and re-
Gently elected president of the associa-
tion for the coming year. Mr.. Belcher's 5
talk was on the Los Angeles chapter
and his witty remarks brought forth
great applause for the new president.
The ambition of the clerks, who each
IN his daily work is striving for the
position just above him and the way
to prepare himself for promotion TO
that position by joining the chapter
was the thought brought out by Mr.
Belcher who also spoke of the great
success of the chapter at the meeting
in st. Louis.

DENY INCREASE OF RATES.
Railroads Before Interstate Commits.
sion, However, Admit They Are
Unjust and Excessive.

Washington, May 25.-The Interstate
commerce commission today heard the
argument in the case of the Cattle
Raisers' Association of Texas against
practically all the railroads running
south of, or from Chicago, except the
Great Northern and the Union Pacific.
The charges includes the statement
that freight rates on cattle from the
cattle raising states to the cattle mar
kets Is unjust and excessive; that ter
minal charges at Chicago are unjust;
that the rate for feeding cattle en-
route is excessive; that freight rates
for shipping cattle have been raised
from six to eight per cent since 1898,
and that the present service is not as
good as formerly. In answer the rail-
roads deny that the rates have increas-
ed but do not deny that the higher
rates are unjust and excessive.

Wealthy Citizen of Illinois Commits
Suicide After Being Questioned In
Regard to Murder Of Attorney

Savannah, ILL.,, May 25.-Bothwell
Pulford, reputed to be the wealthiest
citizen of Savannah, committed sui
eide today few minutes after being
questioned regarding the whereabouts
of a revolver with which he was sus-
pected of having slain Attorney Dan
s. N. Berry, a former leading member
of the Illinois legislature. Pulford
had denied any knowledge of the kill
ing of Berry, but became agitated
when questioned concerning the re-
volver The story had been widely
circulated that Berry was killed as a
result of attention paid by him to
married woman. Pulford, on arriving
today at his store, found newspaper
man waiting for him with queries as
to the revolver. AS soon as the inter-
viewer had left, Pulford hurried home
and, going to the hay loft of his barn,
shot himself dead.
For two months Pulford has shown
signs of mental strain. When Berry
was killed in Pulford's opera house
last Monday and the authorities be-
gan to question Pulford it was evident
that his mind was giving away. Pull
ford rose from a poor boy to position
as one Of the wealthiest men in this
section of the state.
