Jewish people, at the least calculation
relatives Of the thousands of murdered
Jews in Russia. marched through the
streets in my Congressional district,
clothed in sober black and Grape, in a
great. mourning funeral procession for
the martyred dead in Israel. 1t was one
of the most striking, and one of the most
pathetic scenes in all the history OF the
city Of New York. Sadness and misery
were written on every face. Bystanders
took off their hats, bowed their heads in
sympathy, and shed tears of sorrow.
Nothing like it ever occurred before
Israel weeping and mourning for her
dead-and 1 hope nothing like it will
ever occur again in this land or any
other.
But the murders go on. A veritable
reign Of terror exists. The black hand
Of ignorant fanaticism, race hatred,
and religious bigotry has been raised
throughout Russia against the law

Jews, and the barbaric work Of rapine,
plunder outrage, and assassination con-

the car and that they did not know he
was being dragged till informed by
several terrified pedestrians.
Patrolman Wright was one of the
first to notice the unfortunate team
ster beneath the wheels of the car.
After the motorman stopped the car
Wright made an effort to rescue the un-
fortunate man. Seeing that he could
not alone be of assistance he turned
ina still alarm and the firemen re-
sponded.
1t was necessary to lift up the car

from beneath the wheels. Many wo-
men tainted. while brave men were un-
nerved by the accident.
The injured man was then rushed to
the Central Emergency Hospital near
by, where DR.. Pinkhsm found 1T neces-
sary to amputate O'Donnelfs left leg.
O'Donnell is very weak from loss of
blood and suffering from internal In
juries. Little hope is held out for his

Dor at San Pedro is wholly dependent
upon Los Angeles, but owing to the
distance from the commercial center
the railroad rates were an additional
burden upon the Los Angeles mer-

this city, where many countries, such
as Mexico, Hawaii and South America,

that Los Angeles was unable to COM

The above sketch

The above sketch represents the
boundaries of the city of Los Angeles,
which were fixed by recent election,
when the city voted to extend it's bor-
ders from it's present southern limits
to the Pacific Ocean. 1t is probably
the most unique project city ever
attempted to carry out through the
extension of its boundaries. From
the extreme northern boundary south
to the Pacific Ocean 1T is about thirty
three miles. The width of the city
at the widest part Is about six miles.
and the narrow strip is but one-half
of mile wide and nineteen miles in
length. The city having annexed all
the densely populated section south,
thought 1t not practicable to incorpor-
ate so great an area, SO 1t decided on
the narrow strip.

WAN IS To CLOSE
MARKET STREET

Public Works Commissioner Duffey
proposes to close Market street, from
East to Second, for period Of two
months. in order to build a new sewer
and repave the thoroughfare. He will
submit his plan next Friday morning at
10 o'clock to delegations from the Dray-
mems Association, Teamsters Union
and Merchants Association, which he
has invited to meet him at that time.
Duffey says that in the end matters
will be expedited by his plan. Commis-
sioner Eagan has already voiced his
disapproval of a move that will, he be-
lieves, disconcert downtown traffic and
business to a serious degree.
Duffey says that he would divert
teaming traffic to Mission and Howard
streets by way of Steuart and Spear
streets, which are now in passable con-
dition. The contracts for the work on
Market street have already been award
ed to the Burrel Construction Company
and to the City Street Improvement
Company. and they are anxious to begin
as soon as possible.
United Railroads build temporary
track on the south side of Market
street, from East to Second, so that the
entire north side of Market street can
be put In good condition without any
interference. The street will have to
be raised three or four feet in some
places, and the corporation will be
obliged to raise its tracks to conform
to the official grade. Active operations
will begin probably on December /, and
If Duffey's plan is carried out it is ex-
pected that by working night shifts of
laborers the sewer and paving can be
completed in two months or less.
Later in the day Commissioner Eagan
stated that he would not be in favor of
closing Market street. He thought the
work could be done on one of the sides.
