LONG BEACH, June 15.-At the
meeting OF the chamber Of commerce
last night Rev. Chester p. Dorland.
pastor of the Plymouth CONGREGATIONAL
church, made the statement that a
crusade against dancing i'm the audi
torium would soon be inaugurated. As
the tri-weekly dances i'm the big hall
have proved leading diversion, this
announcement created a sensation.
The question was brought up when
the secretary of the chamber asked
that n resolution be formally adopted
instructing him to pay to the manager
OF the Royal Italian band n sum of
money which had been realized at a
band benefit concert. Rev. Mr.. Dor
land arose and said that he would not
vote to give the band management a
penny until the dances had been dis
continued. He prophesied that, unless
the trend of things is changed, within
six months dances would also be held in
the big hall on Sunday nights. He said:
Il desire to serve notice right here
that we propose to make a fight on this
question as soon as the proper time
comes"
Long Beach is sans saloon. sans the

that the refined and popular auditorium
dances will be placed under the ban.

PASADENA, June 15-By the re-
quest of District Attorney Fredericks
the examination of j. c. C. Jaxon, the
Pasadena negro tailor accused of the
murder of James A. Logan, has been
continued for one week.
1t was originally set for tomorrow
morning at 10 O'Clock before Justice
Glover at South Pasadena District
Attorney Fredericks has decided per-
sonally to handle the case and desires
more time in which to collect the evil
dence against Jaxon.
Edwin F. Hahn, representing Jaxon,
readily consented to the continuance
when it was asked. asserting that his
client has nothing to fear from the full
corralling of this evidence and that it
will only mean a more complete vindi-
cation when acquittal comes. The fact
that Fredericks has deemed the case
important enough to take personal
charge of it is taken as proof that the
case as already outlined against Jaxon
is stronger than was generally believed
Marshal Reid and Sheriff White are
still working on the numerous clews
but say that nothing more has devel-
oped during the past twenty-four
hours.
1t has not yet been determined to send
for Goldie, the white man who was in
Jaxon's employ at the time of the Logan
murder and who appears to know more
than he is willing to tell concerning
the affair.

SANTA re OVERLAND
IN A EAD ACCIDENT
STRIKES EXPRESS WAGON AT
PASADENA CROSSING
Horses Instantly Killed, Wagon De-
moIished and Driver Thrown Sixty
Feet--He Has Chance Of Re-
covery

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, June 15.-The Overland
on the Santa Fe railroad struck a
transfer wagon shortly after noon to-
day, demolishing the wagon, killing
both horses and inflicted serious in
Juries on the driver, Clyde r. Sewerd.
Sewerd is employed by the Miller Ex-
press company, of which Walter Weav-
er is now the proprietor, and was driv-
ing across the Santa Fe tracks at Glen
arms street when the Overland bore
down upon him, going at high rate of
speed. Bystanders say that the whistle
of the incoming train sounded at almost
the time the accident occurred. Sc
werd saw the train when nearly di-
rectly before it and endeavored to turn
back but could not
Both horses were instantly killed, one
of them carried five hundred yards
down the track on the cowcatcher of
the locomotive. The wagon was torn
into bits, striking the driver twice
while in the air.
Sewerd was thrown sixty feet and in
jured about the spine, with possibly in
ternal injuries. He did not lose con-
sciousness but when picked up was in
great pain. 1t is hard to conceive how
the man could come through such an
experience without losing his life, but
the surgeons at the Pasadena hospital,
to which he was removed with all
speed, after an examination expressed
the belief that he stood a good show of
recovering.
At a late hour tonight he is reported
to be resting easily.
The accident occurred at one of the
most dangerous grade crossings in the
city. Both sides Of the tracks at Glen
arm street are hidden from view by
buildings, so that train coming from
the north as did the Overland today
cannot be seen until it is almost at the
crossing. There is no gate at this cross
ing in spite of the fact that the place is
much used for traffic.
Weaver says he will sue the railroad
company for damages.
Sewerd came from Long Beach about
six months ago and is unmarried.

enjoying the scene from the club win

a parasol over her head, danced gayly
at Thirty-ninth street and Fifth ave-

Policeman Behan of the West Thir-

placed his hands on her shoulder she
said melodramatically
"Unhand me or / Will tell the preS1-

NEW YORK, June 1.-Two women,
stylishly dressed. one quite young ana
pretty the other pretty too but not SO
young, caused a blockade of trolley cars
yesterday afternoon, startled elevated
and subway train hands and furnished
excitement for about a thousand per-
sons, first and last. The scene was at
the 149th street junction of the Third
Avenue and Westchester avenue cars,
the subway and the elevated roads
1t was about $3.50 p. m. A tall we'll
dressed man, accompanied by slender
brunette of about 22 years, stepped off a
Westchester avenue car and stood for
few moments apparently waiting for
downtown Third avenue surface car.
From the following Westchester ave-
nue. car there alighted more matronly
woman, possibly of about 80 years.
The newcomer saw the waiting couple.
She was at their side in a jiffy.
AS she reached them she produced a
ruler such as is used in school rooms
and struck the young brunette on the
cheek. There was a scream, then an
other, then flying skirts and waving
plumes.
The man jumped as though he had
been shot into a trolley car bound
downtown. Through the gathering
cfOWu OIL InOIOrInen, ConuucLoiSb Sldrt-
ers and general public the brunette
darted down the subway steps. The
matron followed her, hot-foot. There
was no waiting train in the subway,
and up the other side soon appeared the
big black ostrich plume that topped the
gray-gowned brunette Like a fright
ened gazelle she leaped up the ele-
vated's steps.
The embonpoint of the matron was
beginning to tell. She was fully twelve
feet in the rear and painting, Some one
tried to stop her.
Let me go!" she shrieked. She's
stealing my husband"
Up the elevated steps she went, and
supposing that her quarry had gone to
take a train she took one that was just
starting. Soon from the other side of
the street the brunette, who had run
right on through the platform, emerged
and hurried down the subway.
Policeman Valentine of the Morris
ania police said: "I'd have caught her
IL the crowd hadn't been so confounded
curious"
1t took twenty-five minutes to get the
trolley cars moving again in the right
direction.
