Atlantic City. Kaufman declares that
the company is doing business illegal
ly and that fraud is being perpetrat-

CITY GOES INTO
Gas BUSINESS
CONSUMERS MONTHLY BILLS
ARE GARNlSHEED
COLLECTING BACK LICENSES
Council Adopts Heroic Measures to

COLLECTING BACK LICENSES

The city is now making business Of
collecting gas bills. The long suffer-
ing citizens are at last getting back at
a gas company for the citizen Is, at
least in the case in hand, the official gas
man.
Yesterday the corporation Of Los An
geles served in Justice Young's court a
garnishee on the lines of the Peoples
Gas company, successors to the Los
Angeles Independent Gas company.
These garnishments were served late
yesterday afternoon by deputies on the
consumers of the company, and up and
down Hill street they created consid-
cradle excitement. In most instances
the men were away from home and the
women Immediately arrived at the con-
clusion that the city was suing them.
and in some instances the deputies, 1t
is said, were put to flight.
Company Worth Millions
The company has never paid any
license and the city attorneys office
was instructed by the council to use
any legal means to collect the accrued
licenses. The garnishments were served
to satisfy the, unpaid licenses which
have accrued. About 80 or so of the
notices were served on Hill street alone.
The Peoples Gas company. reputed to
be worth $5,00O,0OO, took over the in
terests of the old Los Angeles Inde-
pendent, or Lowe, company several
months ago. At that time Mayor Nc
Aleer used all of his influence In an en-
deavor to persuade the council to buy
the old plant. The council asked why
not take it over on account of nom
payment of license, the old company
owing at that time about $2400 in ac-
crued licenses.
Since May the bills of the gas COM
pany have gone out with Peoples Gas
company stamped over the old name
with a rubber stamp. The council Is
determined to collect the back license
and movement may soon be made to
attach the gas mains of this company
which are laid under the streets. Such
drastic measures, it is believed, would
bring the corporation to time in short
order.

SEES VISION OF WOMAN
IN PRESIDENTIAL CHAIR
Justice Brewer Addresses Vassar Stu

Educational Opportunities
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, June 13.-David j.
Brewer associate justice of the United
States supreme court has aroused much
applause among the Vassar college
seniors by an address in which he re-
ferred to woman suffrage and intimated
that at some future date a woman may
occupy the presidential chair.
"In this land" said the justice, I'VE
have no privileged class that comes to
its opportunities by inheritance. You
are privileged class, for you have had
the privilege of collegiate education.
Do not give yourselves entirely to the
enjoyment of literature, leaving the
republic to take care of itself. You
owe to your country the duty Of serving
it with all the advantages of your edu-
cation, for who shall say that within
the next decade the suffrage shall not
be extended to men and women as It
has already been in many of the states;
who shall say, that before gray hairs
come to your heads, a woman like
Queen Victoria shall not sit in the
White House to glorify this nation as
Victoria glorified England?"

CHAPTER XXXV.

r. TIA came down to dinner, smil-
ing and imperturbable. On the
threshold Of the drawing room
80 she exchanged a glance with
Karl Steinmetz, and that was all. At
dinner it was Maggie and Paul who
were silent. Eta talked to Steinmetz
brightly. gayly, with a certain cour-
age Of a very high order, for she was
desperate. and she did not show 1t.

He dragged him to the fireplace.
Above the mantelpiece a stick rack
was affixed to the wall, and here were
sticks and riding whips. Steinmetz Sc
lscted a heavy whip. His eyes were
shot with blood; his mouth worked be-
meath his mustache.
So" he said, II am going to settle
with you at last"
De Chauxville kicked and struggled,
but he could not get free. He only suc-
ceeded in half choking himself.
"You are going to swear" said Stein
metz, "never to approach the princess
again, never to divulge what you know
Of her past life."
The Frenchman was almost blue in
the face. His eyes were wild with ter
Tor.
And Karl Steinmetz thrashed him.
It did not last long. No word was
spoken. The silence was only broken
~ their shutting feet, by the startling
report Of each blow, by De Chauxville's
repeated gasps of pain.
The fur jacket was torn in several
places. The white shirt appeared here
and there. In one place it was stained
with red.
At last Steinmetz threw him huddled
into n corner of the room The chat
tering face, the wild eyes that looked
DIP at him, were terrible to see.
"When you have promised to keep
the secret you may CO." said Stein
metz. you must swear it"
De Chauxville's lips moved, but no
sound anne from them. Steinmetz
poured some water into a tumbler and
gaye it to him.

Sooner or later. Paul would have
killed you. That is the only difference.
Do you swear by God in heaven above
you that you will keep the princess Sc.
cret?"
'I swear it," answered De Chaux-
VILE hoarsely.
Steinmetz was holding on to the back
Of a high chair with both hands,
breathing heavily. His face was still
livid. That which had been white in
his eyes was quite red.
De Chauxville was crawling toward
the revolver in the corner of the room
but he was almost fainting. 1t was
question whether he would last long
enough to reach the irearm. There
was a bright patch of red in either liv
er colored cheek. His lips were work
ing convulsively. And Steinmetz saw
him in time. He seized him by the col
lar of his coat and dragged him back
He placed his foot on the pistol and
faced De Chauxville with glazing eyes
De Chauxville rose to his feet, and fol-
a moment the two men looked into
each others souls. The Frenchman's
face was twisted with pain. No wore
was said.
The Frenchman went slowly toward
the door. He faltered and looked round
for a chair. he sat heavily down, will

haustion, and felt for his pocket hand

At last the Frenchman stood slowl,
up and with characteristic thought O
appearances fingered his torn coat.

The German went to a cupboard il
the wall and selected a long ridin,
cloak, which he handed to the French
man without a word.

ALAsKANs AND GOV. BRADY

The nature of the inquiry being con ducted by F. c. Churchill into the standing and official fitness of Gov, Brady Is not,known. However, if it is desired,to ascertain the feeling of the people of Alaska toward him and his qualifications for the office which he holds it will not be difficult to determine that it is one of almcst unan- imous disapproval.
 The people of Alaska want Coy. Brady removed from office becsuse for eight years he has used his official posi- tlon and all the prestige he possesses on account of it to retard the development of the district. They want him re- moved because in his efforts to prevent them from getting seli-goyernment he has used his official reports and his op- portunitieS to make speeches through out the country to misrepreSent to the disadvantage of the district the cOndt-, tlons up here. He has described the men who are developing the mining and other resources of the country and establishing commercial houses here as slventurers and lawless men who pray upon the Indian, kill and make wild his game and deprive him of the means of livelihood. He has portrayed the dis trict as decreasing in population and the people as being unable to maintain a government, even if they were not morally uuftted to manage their own affairs.
 A perusal of Gov, Brady's official re- ports and numerous utterances will show him to be absolutely out of har- mony with those men and women Tho are claiming the northland for civiliza- ton. From the beginning of his term of office he has actively opI Iosed every movement among the people to improve their civic conditions. He abused and lied about the first Alaskan convention that was held at Juneau, and used his official position before congress to dis credit the representative that conven- tion sent to Washington, and he has followed that policy constantly since that day. Everything that has been accomplished in securing the recogni- tion of the right of the people to man. age their ownlafairsIhas been acquired over his persistent opposition. It is recognized that every further advance along that line, also, will have to be ac- quired likewise.
 The people of Alaska feel that in their efforts to improve their conditions it is sufficient to ask them to overcome the inertia of congress. They are get ting sick and tired of having to fight for their rights against the stubborn re- sisteuce of one to whose active assist snce they feel they have right.
 It is true, and the people are grate- ful for it, Secretary Hitchock has i'm proved the situation very much by re- tuslng to permit Gov. Brady to visit Washington while congress is in ses- sion. This patriotic action of the sec retary of the interior and the constant hammering the press and people of the district have given the governor have greatly impaired the effectiveness of his work for i'll, but he is always active and the people are weary of having to be constantly on guard against him.
