WATER PLAN GETS A JOLT
Administration Forces Appear Unable
to Negotiate with the Water
Companies
Special to The Herald.

0pSCldl " lHS I1SIdlu
PASADENA, Nov. 19.-The commit
tee of the city council appointed few
weeks ago to reopen negotiations with
the local water companies for the pur-
chase of the water plants met tonight
at the city hall to prepare their re-
port for presentation to the council
tomorrow morning.
The outlook for a municipal water
plant at an early date was not very
encouraging to Councilman Root and
the other members of his committee
tonight. Two sets of resolutions, the
substance of which have already been
published by The Herald, were before
the committee, one from the Pasadena
Land and Water company, the other
from the Lake Vineyard Land and
Water company, both resolutions in
effect asking to be excused from fur
ther negotiations at this time. That
the lesser companies will follow the
lead of these two larger ones is a fore
gone conclusion, and that there remains
little which can now be done except
to begin condemnation proceedings
against the companies is fully as APP
parent.
Mayor Waterhouse states that only
as last resort will such steps be
taken. The committee carefully went
over the question this evening in all
of it's bearings and will report the
situation to the council tomorrow just
as it stands, bald and unsatisfactory,
though 1t is.

Is Said to Have Declared She Was

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH. Nov. 19.--The report
that Attorney George Spicer had agreed
to drop the case against Mrs. Mabel
Manning, the pretty widow whom he
accuses of wrecking his Office late last
Friday night, proved today to be I'M
true and the woman had to appear be-
fore Justice Brayton to answer to the
charge of malicious trespass.
Mrs. Manning did not utter a word
while in the court room, but through
her attorney, George A. Skinner asked
for time to plead and this was granted
her.
The widow is said to have made the
statement that she entered Spicer's Of
flee Friday night hoping to secure let
ters which she had written to other
men and which the attorney had Sc
cured through the agency of detectives.
Mrs. Manning states that she failed
to find the letters and in fit of pas
sion demolished things generally in
the office. Endearing letters which she
is said to have exhibited. claiming that
Spicer wrote them to her, the attorney
declares to be forgeries.
Spicer is said to have accepted $50
from her Saturday night in part pay
ment for the damage she had done, but
with no understanding that she was
therefore to escape prosecution.
