OWNS PART OF A STREET
Southern Pacific Fences off Portion
of Santa Monica Avenue
Near Hope

Property owners on Santa Monica av-
enue, between Hope and Figueroa
Streets appealed to the board of public
works yesterday to have the fence that
the Southern Pacific has built in front
of the right of way between these two
points torn down.
The protestants declared that legally
Santa Monica avenue should be sixty
feet wide, but that the Southern Pacific
had built a fence and appropriated
about twenty feet of the street. The
board agreed to investigate and find out
the facts in the case.
Accordingly Secretary Ferris made an
investigation yesterday Gfternoon and
found that the part Of the street appro-
priated by the Southern Pacific really
belonged to that corporation, and that
tie fence was on Southern Pacific prop
erty.
Clark & Bryan owned the tract of
land on which the protestants built
their homes. When the tract was laid
out Santa Monica avenue was dedicated
as a 60-foot street, but Clark & Bryan
reserved ten feet on the south side.
Later they had the council abandon
eight feet adjoining the 10-foot strip.
This reverted to the property adjoining,
and Clark & Bryan sold this to the
Southern Pacific.

PROMISE MORE PASADENA CARS
Pacific Electric Augmenting Its Ser
vice North of Los
AnueIes

The Pacific Electric Railway COM
pany contemplates making an improve
ment in the service over the Short Line
between Pasadena, South Pasadena
and Los Angeles about October l. The
change will be in the nature of
a quicker and more frequent service.
Assistant Superintendent j. c. Nc
Pherson of the north division lines
stated that beginning with the first of
next month a NUMBER of new cars
will be placed on the run, reducing
the time between cars to a very few
minutes. Further Improvements cal
culated to better the service are also in
contemplation.
Another important change scheduled
for the near future is a quick morning
service for North Pasadena. For some
time now the company has been run
ming cars between Colorado and the
north city limits every seven and one
half minutes between the hours of 4. As
and $3.50 O'Clock in the afternoon. The
change was made to relieve the con-
gested travel between those hours. The
service has proved satisfactory thus far
and Mr.. Mcpherson ctates that in all
probability the same schedule will soon
be adopted during certain of the morn
ing hours, perhaps inaugurated after
the commence ent of school.
The Altadena to Ostrich farm service
has also proven a great boon espe-
cially to South Pasadena. These cars
are now running at Is minute inter-
walls on a scent fare.

H. v. Dulin, a trusting youth from

twenty dollar bills in the hands of a
gypsy palmist on South Hill street and
when the wad of money was returned
to him minute later there We're but

Dulin stated to the detectives last
evening that when he entered the tenn
pie of palmistry the gypsy queen in
charge told him of many things which
he had never suspected. She won his
confidence by her knowledge finally
and when she asked him to cross her
palm with gold he produced the bills
and performed the required rite.
After the money had been placed on
the woman's hand she spoke volubly of

Dulin's future. Quite convinced of the
seers sincerity, Duling never thought
to count the money when the bills were
handed back to him and it was not un-
til he had returned to his room in the
Pico house that he discovered that the
Egyptian had looted his pile of wealth
to the extent of $40.
Dulin hastily returned to the booth
where the gypsy had been, but she had
closed up the divination shop and gone
away. Detective Rico from the central
station was detailed to look into the
case and a complaint will be issued
against the woman this morning.

ELDORA, Ia, Sept. 19.-The success
or failure of the beet sugar industry in
Bremen county in this state may hinge
upon the solution of the controversy
over whether the women weeders shall
wear their ordinary garb of bifurcated
garments.
1t has been the custom of girls EN-
ployed in the beet field to don overalls
like the men, so as to have freedom
of movement in clearing the beets of
weeds. Some puritanical persons OBJ
jected to this habit on the ground that
1t is immoral and leads to the destruc-
ton of modesty."
The girls declare that the wearing of
skirts has deferred them from doing
rapid work. and therefore they put on
overalls. The young women seem to
like the change and take to the new
garment quite generally, finding 1t just
the thing for their work They insist
that a large, roomy pair of overals is
no more immodest than a skirt, espe-
cially i'm the beetfield.
A local enthusiastic supporter Of the
crusade against girls wearing oVeralls
asserts that the beetfeld will be worse
than the dance hall as a source OF
evil if the overall habit be continued
Must the overall go? That is now the
question which promises TO be para
mount, and its proper solution may
mean the success or failure OF the beet
industry, especially IN Bremer county.

PROBE INTO BIG CONTROVERSY
till-Harriman Case viii Be lnvestI-
gated in Exports Inquiry

Special to The Herald.
CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-At its hearing
on waving the thirty-day notice of
change in export rates, the Interstate
commerce commission is probing into a
big controversy between roads con-
trolled by the Hill and Hartman in
terests and competing roads in trans
continental business, including the
Santa Fe, Rock Island and others, Hill
and Hartman interests, comprising the
Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, South
ern Pacific, Northern Pacific, Great
Northern, Burlington and allied lines
and the Hill and Hartman lines of
steamships on the Pacific are charged
by competing lines with having formed
huge pool to control the transcon-
tinental export and import business Of
the country and the Pacific shipping.
The Hill and Hartman interests are
urging the commission to waive the re-
quirement of thirty days notice Of
change of export and import rates.
The Santa Fe and other lines COM
peting in transcontinental business. but
which have no steamship lines of their
own, oppose the movement and say II
would give the Hill and Hartman lineI
complete power over business.
Owning water and rail lines. one in
terest controlling both, they would
make and change rates as they pleased.
Railroads that have no steamer lines
would have to make their profit out of
the rail shipments and also pay hired
water connections fair profit.
The privilege of changing rates as
they pleased, the other roads in the
transcontinental business contend,
would drive out all competition, and,
when the export and import business
was monopolized, the Hill and Harri-
man interests would raise rates. British

SPEAKS FOR THE VANDERBILT S
Minority Rules in Passenger and
Freight Affairs"
Speclal to The Herald.

6DeClal 10 Inc
CHICAGO I'LL, Sept. 1.-the doubts
entertained by counsel for certain rail-
roads as to the legality of freight and
passenger associations under the Hep
burn law were set at rest by Capt.
George j. Grammer, vice president of
the New York Central lines, who dis
counted the fears of the railroad attor-
neys and gave authoritative reasons for
the views he holds, as representative of
the Vanderbilt system.
I'm the first place." said Capt. Gram
mer, the only way by which railroads
can maintain anything like a system of
uniform rates is through consultations.
I'm the second place, the fundamental
principle of every association that 1
know anything about is based upon the
rule that all rates shall be lawful, rea-
sonabe and non discriminatory.
Last, and far from the least i'm
portant consideration, the accepted
principle of combinations is reversed
Numerically in the operation of rail-
road associations.
''In all passenger and freight asso-
Citations the minority rule is absolute.
"Of course, in adopting rules and
regulations for the government of mem
bers. the majority rules, as in any
other form of association, but the regu-
lations state specifically that no agree
ment shall be binding, and in the max
ing of rates it is the minority, and not
the minority, of the members which
establishes the basis of all charges.
There is absolut v no foundation for
the belief that the several associations
constitute pools, divisions of tonnage
or combinations to maintain rates.
Every road receives every cent for
every ton of freight hauled, and not one
cent is contributed to a competitive
