MAYOR TELLS STORY
ON STREET CAR HOG
SAYS OFFENDER WAS AN EPIs.
COPAL MINISTER
Incident Occurs on Hooper Avenue
Car, on Which Clergyman Was So
BusiIy Engrossed in q Magazine
Article That He Forgot There
Were Other Passengers

There are some ministers with whom
Mayor McAleer is on the best of terms
and some others on whom he looks with
the eye of suspicion, but there is one
Episcopal minister who will never
receive a cent of the chief executives
salary, however hard he may beg
Mayor McAleer tells the story this
way:
II got on a Hooper avenue car at 2
o'clock this afternoon and sat down on
the front seat next to this Episcopalian
clergyman. His coattails were spread
out over the entire seat and as the car
lurched forward ! sat down hurriedly
OH his coattails.
with the rudest gesture possible he
jerked his tails from under me and
stared at me.
"Ie was reading a magazine and sat
In a comfortable attitude with his legs
crossed. The cars on the Hooper ave-
nue. line are short ones, and as he sat
with his legs crossed the toe of his shoe
touched the motormans leg.
A little girl tried to get off the car
and looked at him appealingly for a
moment, but he didn't move his foot an
inch. She finally had to jump over 1t.
"A negro woman was the next one TO
get off the car sd she had TO brush
his foot aside before she could do so.
Three men. IN quick succession. then
left the car and each one had TO jump
over the outstretched foot

SWEEPERs ARE EXPENSIVE
Pneumatic Machines Owned by the
City Not So Cheap as Con-
tract Work

The board of public works has come
to the conclusion that the pneumatic
street sweepers are expensive compared
to the contract sweeping. Chief In
spector Hanley submitted a report tc
the board yesterday showing that in the
last six months the pneumatic sweepers
have swept 4,769,647 square yards of the
downtown streets at a cost of $1333.4S
The same estimate shows that P. A.
Howard, who has the contract for
sweeping all paved streets except those
in the busines7 portion, has swept 12,-
100000 square yards in the same length
of time at a cost of.$1950
Mr.. Howard's contract, however, Is
not netting him much profit and he has
made several attempts to have the
board take the contract away from
him. When the next contract is let the
board realizes 1t will have to pay more
than the 1914 cents a square yard that
now goes to Howard. The city owns
the sweepers and the cost of the work
done by these machines is without a
margin OF profit for contractor.

Rush RuiIdina Operations

There is remarkable unanimity OF
opinion between the heads of the
union and labor employing contractors
These contractors declare there is no
strike on that they can notice.
A few Of them have to to employ two
or three men in the places Of Others
who wanted to quit their jobs. but
these have been very few and work has
not stopped for minute on any build
ing on account of lack of workmen
and union workmen at that.
Contractors who placed large orders
for men at the various labor bureaus
supposlng that a strike was imminent
have all cancelled these orders and the
unemployed of Los Angeles have had
no chance to fill the places Of striking
carpenters.
A number of carpenters have de-
serted Los Angeles for San Francisco
on account OF the much higher wages
paid there
AS there is so much to do and COM
paratively few to do 1t, wages have
gone up to So and 81 day and a num-
ber of local workmen have taken ad-
vantage of the condition of affairs
But as they step out others have come
in and September can be expected tc
be record breaker in the amount OF
building done.

Fire Chief Walter Lips will present

this morning prohibiting brush fires
anywhere in the city limits. An ordi-

many loopholes that the city prose-

to court under 1t.
Weekly reports of the fire chief show
that brush fires do more damage and
more unnecessary runs for the fire de-

''Whatll that boy be up to next?"
As for Jack, he was perfectly at
ease. He did not obtrude himself upon
any one and was not in the least self
conscious. but made himself generally
agreeable; after introductions seating
himself near Mrs. Harmon.
At dinner the Major could hardly
contain himself and kept introducing
new topics and drawing Jack out on
them, until Mr.. Marsden and the rest
wondered if there were any subject
this well groomed young fellow was
not posted upon, and Mr.. Marsden was
more than pleased to find that his judg-
ment of Jack had been a correct one.
The Major was only showing him OF
and was highly delighted.
After dinner the Major had a chance
to draw Jack aside for a minute.
