 then lowered his al. ... zontal, hat in hand, pointing in the direction the darting savage was seen, and thus, without syllable having been spoken sI- the front, word was passed in to Ray that one Indian had been sighted far out to the northwest.
 They may try to hold us among the breaks of the Mini Pusa," said he, to his still unreconciled second in command. Field had been civil, re- spectful, put utterly uncommunica- tive in his replies to the captains repeated cordialities. Any attempt to even remotely refer to the, causes that led to his being ordered out with the detachment had been met with chilling silence. Now, how ever, the foe had been seen and could be counted on to resist if his rallied force much exceeded that of the troop, or to annoy it by long range fire if too weak to risk other encounter. The command halted one moment at the crest to take one long, Lingering look at the now far distant post beyond the Platte; then, swinging again into saddle, moved briskIy down into the long, wide hol- low between them and the next di- vide, well nigh three miles across, and as they reached the low ground and traversed its little draining gully, . mnttered exclamation Look there!" from the lips of the first sergeant, called their attention again to the far left front. Stone, the trooper who had reported the hrst Indian, had turned his horse over to the second man, as had the corporal on that flank, and together they were crouching up along the eastward face of billowing hillock, while. straight to the front Sergeant Scott, obedient to . signal from his left hand man, was speeding diagonally along the rise to the north, for all three advance troopers had halted and two were cautiously dismount- ing. Ray watched one moment, with hndling eyes, then turned to his young chief of platoons:

NEIMEYER LICENSE
QUESTION is ENDED
SALOON KEEPER WILL LEAVE
LOS ANGELES
Battle Royal Waged Between Man
and Police Commissioners Brought
to CIose-Arthur Grossmer Be-
comes Owner of Nemeyer Rights

On condition that his revoked saloon
license be reissued to Arthur Grossmer,
A. Niemeyer announced to the police
commissioners yesterday morning that
he would retire from the liquor business
and leave the city. The police commits
sioners at once accepted Niemeyer's s
proposition and the license was issued
to Arthur Grossmer. Mr. Niemeyer's
reason for leaving the city is not to
avoid publicity in any manner. but to
enter business in some other locality.
The action of the police commission
ers yesterday morning with reference
to Nismeyer's proposal ends a long and
hard fought battle. The police commits
sioners clearly demonstrated yesterday
that they were glad to welcome any
kind Of proposition provided it would
end the case.
Last November Niemeyer's saloon
license was first revoked. Since then it
has come up in the courts time and
time again to be disposed of. In every
instance the courts held that the COM
nlissioners had exceeded the extent of
their jurisdiction in the matter and
awarded Niemeyer Mis- license.
No sooner would Niemeyer gain pos
session OF his much knocked about
license than the police commissioners
would again revoke 1t. Niemeyer was
kept In a continual state of unrest and
has fought hard to overpower the COM
nlssioners.
Seeing that it was apparently useless
to longer continue the struggle with the
commissioners and having a desire to
leave the city, Niemeyer took the action
he did yesterday.

FINISH SAN PEDRO HARB0R
Commercial Prospects of Los Angeles
Demand Some Speedy
Action

TROPICO, May S.-(Editor Herald):
Among the very sensible things in this
mornings Herald is that on quake
cards" and pictures sent out over the
country, thus tearing down what took
years and much money to build up
the winning of good settlers for our
country. 1t seems that sordid dollars
have more room in some reople's souls
than love of country and grace of truth
and kindness.
The other article that calls for spe-
cial mention is your editorial on the
commercial prospects of Los Angeles.
Now Is the time to urge the govern
ment to speedily complete San Pedro
harbor. and if the cities in competition
should plaoe obstacles in the way of
sufficient appropriations by the ma
tional government, Los Angeles county
could we'll afford to vote 81, 900, 900 worth
of bonds and give it to the government
to rush the harbor to completion. The
helpfulnes of a good, safe harbor at
this time is apparent and its value to
Los Angeles and all Southern Califor-
mia is so clear that 1t ought to be pro-
vided for at once. Let us have a COM
peted harbor for the largest merchant
vessels at an early date.
