Phelan was an ideal mayor and no one
could Justly criticise him when he oc-

is a strong man along many lines. His
honesty cannot be questioned and he
showed himself to be exceedingly gen.
erous when he was mayor of San Fran

men in the state and he has a wonder

like him equally well. After he was

"While the people are watching the

work" said Chief Auble yesterday.
1--WE are going to do all we can to To-
cate the crooks, but citizens must help
themselves also"
A number of officers in plain clothes
will mingle with the crowds to locate
and arrest any pickpockets.
Where the crowds congregate there
the light fingered pickpockets will be
waiting their opportunity to steal wal
lets and watches, say the detectives.

Three trunk thieves arrested at San

a portion of their plunder had been
sent to Los Angeles and was in the
possession of fence named M.
Schumacher.
Detective Sergeant Kelly was puzzled
over the news contained in an Asso-
GATED Press dispatch from San Fran
cisco, and said that the local detec-
tives' knew nothing Of any wholesale
trunk stealing.
1t was said that Inspector ODea of
San Francisco ran down three men
who afterwards confessed that they
were implicated in the wholesale rob-
berry Of trunks and luggage belonging
to guests of the Palace and st. Francis
hotels.
The men gave the names of Glenn
Slater, Alvin Patterson and Harry Nc
Laughlin.
Through them, 1t is claimed, the in
spector learned the name of the alleged
Los Angeles fence
There is no IN Schuemacher'' in the
city directory or telephone books and
the local police profess ignorance of

They say that it is rather queer that
the San Francisco officers did not notify
the Los Angeles police If there was a
local end to the robbery.

The three men arrested by Inspector

of Market street, and 1t is said that

BEGINS W1RK ON
LINES FOR SEWERS
CITY ENGINEER BUSY WITH.
PLANS
Twenty-one Miles Of Conduits Will
Be Constructed and Must Be
Completed Within Three
Years

Work was begun yesterday in the
city engineers office establishing defi-
mite lines for the new lateral sewers
for which bonds were voted Thursday.
The bonds provide for twenty-one miles
Of sewers and with work to be done
by private contract Los Angeles will
have a sewer system of more than two
hundred miles when all is completed.
The twenty-one miles provided for in
the bond issue must be completed with
in three years, and will be feeders to
the big outfall sewer now being con-
structed from Los Angeles to the sea,
and which has reached as far as Ingle-
wood.
The southern part of the city will
profit more than any other section from
the new lateral sewers. This district is
lacking in sewer facilities, but the long
est feeder to the outfall will be built
in that part of the city. This conduit
will be eight miles long and vary from
three to five feet in diameteIt The
route proposed for this main is from
Slauson and Western avenues north on
Compton to Vernon, east on Vernon to
Soto, north on Soto to point near the
city limits, northeast to Miriam and
Alosta and north on Miriam to Glen
avenue, where 1t is divided and ex-
tends into Boyle Heights

Boyle Heights is well provided for.
One branch of the southern main ex-
tends into East Boyle Heights for a
distance of mila and half and serves
the district between Euclid avenue and
the eastern city limits as far north as
BROOKLYN avenue, The main for West
BOYLE Heights is also mile and half
in length and supplies the district be-
tween Saratoga street to the district of
the eastern main and extends as far
north as Wabash avenue.
The Arroyo de los Pesos sewer ex-
tends from Also street to Alhambra
avenue and the Rio Vista sewer drains
the destrict between the river and Boyle
avenue. This sewer joins the south
main at Sixth street, near the river ana
extends south to near the limits.
In the western part, of the city O

Gould Command Votes

governor of California would be the
wisest thing which could be done.
Gould Command Votes
HE is young and energetic, ana
could command more votes than any
other, man whom the party leaders
might choose to make the race. Phelan
is gifted along many lines. He is young
and scholarly and is thorough patriot.
"In every section of the state he is
known and liked so that no one part
would vote for him and the rest for
someone else. A better man could not
be selected, and he would have good
chance of being elected. The trend
of Democratic opinion seems to be
strongly inclined in his direction, and
should he be chosen the citizens of this
state can be sure that they would have
chief executive who would not only
be honest, but who would be thoroughly
capable.
"Phelan's action in the recent disas--
ter was really brilliant and it should
commend him to thoughtful men. His
suggestion that when San Francisco Is
rebuilt the streets should be widened
and more beautiful buildings should be
erected is one of the most sensible ever
heard. It is really shame that 1t
should have been turned down by the
business men of that city.
Altogether it seems to me that Phe-
Ian is an ideal candidate for the Demo-
cratic party to select to make the race
for governor"

TRACKS I'd BEACH
HUNTINGTON INTERESTS PLAN
BIG IMPROVEMENTS
Work viii Begin on the Arrival OF
Delayed Shipment Of Rails-Will
Push the Hill Street
Tunnel

AS has been predicted for long time,
there is soon to be great activity in
street railway building in Los Angeles
with an outlay of hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.
Now that e. H. Hartman has become
the owner of the Los-Angeles Pacific,
his Representatives acknowledge that
much money is going to be spent in
Improving the road. Arrangements are
being pushed forward with all possible
speed in order to have the large tunnel
through the hill at the head of Hill
street finished as soon as possible in
order to shorten the time to the beaches.
Other great expenditures will be
made in making the road double track
and reducing grades. 1t is also the in
tention of the owners to purchase much
equipment.
Are Working Constantly
Work OF extending tracks, reballast-
ing old ones and laying out new lines
for the Pacific Electric is never stopped
but goes on night and day.
H. e. Huntington has now made pub
lie that 1t is the intention of the owners
of the Long Beach line to make 1t four
tracks. 1t is said that the work Is being
delayed by a large consignment of rails
coming from the east
The new tratk will be about eight
miles long and Eill be the longest track
OF the kind west OF New York The
reason for this four-tracking is said to
be heavy traffic.
About 600 cars are now run over the
Long Beach track every day and dis.
patchers are busy keeping them out of
the way of each other. During the
past few years a number of branch
lines have been built from the main
line and have increased the traffic con-
slderably. 1T is, understood that other
branches are considered. and IL this Is
the case two main tracks viii not suiilce

The anti-foreign feeling is merely

Toxic had a great many unkind

These students. who are members
of the better classes in China. are
responsible for the growth and pro-
pagaiton of the anti-foreign sentiment
and for the boycott.
"'rhc anti-foreign feeling is not Ill
