ward-other Damages
Are Described

Because, as they allege, the Southern
Pacific company delivered to them a
bum steer" instead OF a fine specimen
of beef which they had purchased, the
directors of the Sentous Packing COM
pany yesterday filed suit in the su-
perior court for damages for the loss
of the steer and for heavy damages re-
sulting from the mistreatment of cattle
by the railway company.
The first trouble, according to the
complaint, occurred on December l of
last year. when the railway contracted
to bring a very fine specimen of steer
from Douglas. Ariz. to Los Angeles by
way of Yuma. The steer was valued at
$50 ON the ground, which is good price
for Arizona beef, considering that the
shipping and feeding will rest with the
buyer.
Mr.. Steer was packed into a car ana
started for Los Angeles. At Yuma he
was prodded out of the car and into a
corral. where he was to be fed.
The corral was owned by the railroad

COLO WEATHER
VERY UNUSUAL
OBSERVER TAKES OPTIMISTIC
VIEW
Mr.. Fuller Says the Cold Snap VIII
Quickly Pass and Sunny Days VIII
FoIlow-CaIifornia the
Finest Place

AS usual, California Is the hnest
place on earth. Notwithstanding the
little cold spell that has been setting
over the land Of flowers and obscurihg
the sun for a few hours, we are tarlhg
much better i'm this part OF the state
than others are all over the country.
"Thc one that grumbles should stop
to consider that all the storms OF the
Pacific coast make a bee line for the
east and spend their fury there. We
Just get the first little touch and the
fasteners get the rest"
This is the rosy view taken by As
sistant Observer Fuller, when seen at
the weather office yesterday.
"The present cold spell is something
unusual and especially the duration at
such an early date" continued the
rainy day optimist. THE record for
November was "a degrees in 1886, and
yesterday the minimum was AZ degrees.
This spell will quickly pass
The cold weather during the past
week has been due, the observer said,
to the succession of high areas at the
north of the Pacific slope and Nevada
and passing easterly. The pressure
here, according to the weather reports,
Is relatively loW but the steady down
fall of cold air from the higher region,
despite the warming it receives in it's
descent, makes the cold weather here.
But compared to Montana and even Ne
vada it is quite warm.
The storms that strike Southern Cali
fornia usually come from the north
but the present came from the south
San Luis OhispO showed the lowest de-
gree, while San Diego was the warm
est city i'm the state. Los Angeles comes
in second.
Unsettled weather is expected for the
next thirty-siX hours and unless an
other storm comes will then probably
clear off.
So far the rainfall has been very
slight for the season. registering only
.6S of an inch. During November of
last year the registration was inches.
Take it all in all, California still
holds the record for warm climate.
Only the very first of the coldness is
felt here, While it goes straight to the
eastern coast to make zero weather.

TAX COLLECTOR GETS BIG SUM
One Hundred and Ten Thousand DOL
lars Paid In One Day for City
Assessments

The total tax assessment for the city
of Los Angeles for the present year
is. in accordance with the statement
OF the city tax collector, $2,219,OO0. OF
that amount $1.O31. .S2O.SO has been paid.
The last day for the payment of
taxes was yesterday and the tax col
lectors office was thronged with tax
payers. One hundred and ten thousand
dollars was received by the collector
yesterday, the largest amount ever re-
ceived in a single day before.
There is between 100000 and $400. 900
which has come through the mail to
the collector and that has not been
counted as yet. All city taxes which
were not paid yesterday are today de-
linquent and require an additional ten
per cent. If they are not paid by April
l. 1907, an additional five per cent must
be paid The other half Of the taxes
will be due April l. While the delin-
quency generally reaches 100000 1t is
believed that It will this year be at
least 100000 less than that sum.

Steers Badly JoIted

The steer kept his lead and has not
yet been found. The company is ac-
cused of Offering a weary, wind-broken
one as a substitute, which the Sentous
company refused to accept, and bided
it's time for the reckoning.
Again, on December 20, the Sentous
company ordered a shipment of beef
from Douglas. including a carload Of
shorthorns. They now allege that the
cattle car was attached to the rear end
of a freight train of fifty cars and
that the consequent jolting was so bad
that the cattle suffered from the eff
fects of the journey.
1t Is stated In the complaint that so
often did the train start and stop that
many of the steers we're trampled and
frightened into frenzy by being tossed
about. AS the car was the last 1t re-
ceived all the i'll effects of quick curves

the cattle.
-Four steers died after the trip, caus-
ing a damage of $500. while further
damage to the cattle from loss of flesh
and bruises Is asked by the packing
company to the amount of $290.S5.
on December 20. the complaint fur
ther alleges, the Sentous people ordered
1888 head of cattle by freight by way of
the Southern Pacific from Calexico.
