STUDENTS LOSE THEIR STRIKE
Embryo Doctors Go Back to Their
Hard Old Grind and Long
Hours

The students strike at the College
of. Physicians and Surgeons has failed.
Saturday the embryo doctors went on
a strike for shorter hours and a Sat
urday half holiday, but the faculty
could not be made to see things from
their point of view, so the students
had to come around to the faculty's
viewpoint.
Back of it all is sore grievance.
To make a good DOCTOR Los Angeles
educators consider it necessary that
they work from a. m. till 6 p. m.
and all day Saturday. In addition they
have to study at night
According to the way the studeNts
estimate 1t, this is entirely too long,
At least they want half Of Saturday.
And so, after delivering their ultima
tum to the faculty, they went out"
But like many another striker they
went back without any promise of re-
lief.
II is reported that Dean Bryson said
they ''could take II or leave it," So
they took it.
And IL they are good and work hard,
Dean Bryson promises that next term
he will try TO give them an hour more
OF leisure every day; but not, be 1t
understood, ON account Of their strike.

RENT ROOMS FOR ENGINEERS

STREET olLINe is EXPENSIVE
Board of Public Works Finds Price
Has Advanced Fifty Per Cent
In Short Time

Street oiling will be an expensive
operation this year. The board of pub
lie works received bids for $4,000 barrels
Of oil yesterday, and the lowest bidder
wanted 94 cents per barrel.
A few months ago oil, of the kind de-
manded by the board for street pur-
poses, was a drug on the market at so
cents a. barrel. Today it hovers around
the dollar mark, and oil producers are
not overly anxious to dispose of it at
that price.
The oil demanded by the board must
be free of water and contain 55 per cent
asphaltum. Although the specifications
in the advertisement for bids are very
broad and capable of several interpreta-
tions, it is probable that when the con-
tract is drawn up it will state that the
oil be delivered on the streets. One
bidder who wants $105 cents a barrel
volunt arily offers to do so. Chief In
spector of Works Hanley, however, OBJ
jects to the producers putting the oil
OH the streets, as the wagons they use
are not suitable for the purpose.
The bids received were as follows:
To furnish crude oil for surface OIL
ing streets and other public places in
the city of Los Angeles:
C. c. Harris Oil company proposed:
For 10000 barrels not to be over 16
degrees Beaume and to contain, not less
than SO per cent asphalt at 94 cents per
barrel of forty-two gallons each; for
5000 barrels to contain 70 per cent
asphalt. 80 cents per barrel
John r. OFT proposed: For 10000 bar
rels, more or less, OF oil not less than
55 per cent asphalt. to be sprinkled on
streets at any point within the city
limits, 80 cents per barrel of forty-two
gallons each 5000 barrels, more or less
oil containing not less than 70 per cent
asphalt, to be sprinkled on streets at
any point within the city limits, $105
per barrel.
Oil Inspector Blackmar is anxious
that the board of public works erect
storage tanks and that oil be purchased
IT. large quantities and delivered to
these tanks. While he admits that
there would be little difference in the
price, still the city would be able to
steam it's own oil and get it to the
proper temperature.
Steel storage tanks it has been figured
would cost about $3S,00O per 100000 bar
rales capacity, and the board has no
appropriation for this purpose.

DAMAGE SUIT is SUSTAINED
Lineman viii Receive $4,000 from the
Southern Pacific Railroad With
nnt New Trial

BY a decision handed down yesterday
In department eight Of the superior
court in the case of Robert Cheatam
against the Southern Pacific company,
a new trial was denied the defendants
and the decision of jury in which
Cheatam was awarded $4,000 damages
was sustained.
1t was practically the third trial of
the case. Cheatam had been a llne-
man in the employ of the company and
a year ago, while at work stringing tel
egraph wires, he received shock which
hurled him to the ground and badly
crippled him.
He sued the railroad company, con-
tending that he had been directed to do
work without being properly protected
by having a number Of men, He al
legged that the wires with which he had
been working had come In contact with
an electric wire below him and that
had there been a proper number OF
men at work with him the accident
would not have happened.
The jury returned a verdict OF $4,000
in Judge Monroe'S court, but upon the
appeal on the ground that the evidence
had not been sufficient to support such
a verdict, a new trial was granted and
the case went before jury in Judge
Wilbur's court. Then the jury gave
the plaintiff an extra thousand, making
judgment for $4,000.
The railroad appealed and yesterday
Judge Wilbur refused to grant a new
trial and the judgment will be turned
over to the man

WANTS INSPECTOR OF BRAKES
Houghton Cites Saturday Mornings
Accident as Example Of Neces-
sty for Official

Doc Houghton yesterday made Wig
orous attempt to have the council create
the position of inspector Of brakes. He
did not succeed I'm this endeavor but the
council finally passed resolution in
structing the city attorney to draw up
an ordinance compelling better safety
appliances to be used in electrical work
and on street cars.
For several weeks Houghton has tried
to have his idea for a brake inspector
adopted by the council He declared
that half the automobile accidents were
due to defective brakes and that with a
city official whose duty 1t was to see
that every piece of machinery requiring
brakes for the public safety be in good
order these accidents would be re-
duced to a minimum.
AS an evidence of necessity for such
an official Houghton cities the terrible
accident occurring Saturday morning
on the Brooklyn avenue line, which is
claimed to have been caused by de-
fectiVe brake shoes.

The kind Of absence that makes the

married couples for yesterday Mrs.
Leah Miller Boiler, who has been q
pupil at Occidental college left the
Presbyterian institution and registered
at the University of Southern Cali

pupil.
This is another chapter In a romance
that has had more than one climax.
1t will be remembered that pretty
Miss Leah Miller became the bride OF
Phillips Boiler six months ago when
the two young persons were married
under assumed names.
After the news of the wedding had
ceased to be the property of two low
ing hearts and the little blind god and
had become known to a host Of friends
of both, there was a. second ceremony
under right names that the knot might
be doubly fast.
The expulsion of Phillips Boiler
from Pomona college because he was
so daring as to take unto himself a
wife without first consulting the fac
ulty Of that institution formed another
link in the chain, and later came the
admission of Phillips Boiler into the
University Of Southern California
where DIR. Bovard does not believe
that a student who is admitted to be

WINS VICTORY
FOR DEMOCRAT IS
NAMES OF CANDIDATES WILL
GO ON TICKET
Supreme Court Promptly Renders De-
cision Compelling Secretary of
State to Comply With the
Election Laws

The state Democracy of California
scored another victory yesterday wher
by decision handed down by the
judges of the supreme court, now sit
ting in Los Angeles, a writ of mandate
was issued compelling Secretary OF
State Curry to 9ccept and file the two
nominations recently made by the
Democratic committee on vacancies
but which were rejected by Mr.. Curry
October 4.
Decision in favor of the Democrats
came promptly at the close of an able
argument advanced by Attorney Frank
g. Finlayson, representing the state
Democratic committee.
Shortly after the Democratic conven-
tion at Sacramento, two of the nom
inees withdrew from the ticket. A
meeting of the committee on vacancies
appointed by the state committee was
called as quickly as possible, and C. H
Haybl was selected to fill the vacant
nomination for clerk of the supreme
court, while Dr. c. w. Nutting was
named as Democratic nominee fol
member of the state board of equaliza-
ton from the third district,
Those nominations were hurried tc
Secretary Of State Curry and were pre-
sented for filing on October 8, lust
thirty-one days before the election
the nominations from committee OF
vacancies must be filed within a period
of not more than sixty and not less
than forty days before the election, re-
fused to receive the nominations.
Court Takes Clear View
He alleged that he had appealed tc
District Attorney Seymour in order tc
find If there was not some section under
which the nominations could be re-
ceived and filed, but that the district
attorney had agreed with him in reject
ing the nominations.
Yesterday, after Attorney Finlayson's
argument, the supreme court took an.
other view of the case.
The following section, 1892 of the
political code, was considered by the
court:
Every certificate of nomination filed
with the secretary of state must be filed
not more than sixty nor less than forty
days before the election when the nom
nations are made by the convention;
every certificate of nomination filed
with the secretary, when the nomina-
tion has been made by petition must
be filed within a period Of time not
more than fifty nor less than thirty
days before the election. In case of a
vacancy in the nominations, then the
chairman or secretary of the committee
on vacancies must file certificate OF
the names of the persons selected to
fill the vacancy within the minimum
number of days provided by the code
for the filing of the certificates OF
nomination"
Taking that section of the code under
consideration, the judges ruled that
according TO the code the minimum
number of days provided for the filing
ii H.
while the secretary of state had "gener-
ously'' insisted on forty days being the
minimum.
The writ Of mandate was ordered and
will be served on the secretary today,
when the names of the new nominees
will be filed and placed on the regular
Democratic state ticket.
