TRIES To KILL HIS
W|FE'S FRIEND.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALI.

LOS ANGELES, July 27.-But for the
prompt action of the police a tragedy
would have been enacted today at the
Coroner's inquest over the remains of
Mrs. Emma Daniels, who committed
suicide last night after her husband
had discovered that she,.had been i'm
properly intimate with 4Aex West, who
is a business partner of her brother,
William Daniels. The husband of the
suicide and her two brothers openly
threatened to kill West on sight
When Daniels entered the undertak-
ing establishment where the inquest
was held he began looking for West
I'll kill HIM I'll kill him If l hang!
If he comes here I'll kill him as 1 would
a dog" he shouted. The police placed
Daniels under arrest and, taking him
to another room, searched him for "a
weapon. They found only a large
pocket knife. The dead woman's
brothers were also searched. When
West appeared and started TO take the
witness stand. Daniels seized a heavy
chair and, swinging it over his head
tried to brain the man who caused his
wife to end her life. Several officers
seized him and wrested the chair from
him. After that the police stood guard
over West and at the conclusion of the
inquest escorted him from the place by
a rear door while Daniels and his party
waited on the sidewalk. West was ad-
vised to leave the city for week or
two.

TRADE PROSPECTS
ARE FAVORABLE.

NEW YORK, July 27.-Bradstreets
tomorrow will say:
Trade, industry and crop develop
ments are generally favorable. The
crop situation seems to lose nothing
rs the growing advances. The heavy
movement of winter wheat to market,
while tending to some ease in prices
has a favorable side when the export
business is considered. Reports are
that a large future business in this
direction has already been booked. An
Interesting sidelight on the gloomy
predictions current some time ago as
to the meat trade is found in adyices
from Chicago that cattle and hog prices
are at the highest point of the year.
Railway traffic returns point to an un
precedentedly heavy volume of busi-
ness Offering.
Business failures in the United
States for the week ended July &c
number Ill. against 1873 last week and
1877 in the corresponding week of 1905.
Failures in Canada number "a as
against IS last week and 81 last year
Wheat Gncluding -FOUR exports from
the United States and Canada for the
week ending July &c are 1,70S. 7O5
bushels. against S64.146 this week last
year. For the last four weeks of the
fiscal year the exports are 6,942,233
bushels. against 4,523,429 in 1905.
r. G. Dun Co.'S Weekly Review
of Trade tomorrow will say:
Complaints of inadequate labor sup
ply are universal. Building operations
are extensive and would be much
greater If the cost of labor and ma
terials had not caused the abandon
ment of many plans. Railway earn
ings in July thus far surpass corre-
spending reports of last year by S.5
per cent, and foreign commerce at this
port alone for the last week shows
gains of $2,110,472 in exports and ST.
$50, $40 in imports.
Failures this week number PIG in the
United States, against PA last year,
and IS in Canada. compared with 81
a year ago.

TRAINMEN DESIRE
A SHORTER DAY.

Freight conductors and brskemen in
the employ OF the Southern Pacific
Company are preparing to present a
demand to the company for shorter
working day. The new schedule pro-
vides that twelve and one half miles
shall constitute one hours work and
that eight hours shall constitute a full
day The present schedule provides for
a ten-hour day.
General superintendent W. S. Palmer
Of the Southern Pacific Company says
that wrong impression has been given
the public as TO the manner of settling
the strike of the freight handlers in
the Oakland yards of the company.
The men appointed new conference
committee, which met the railroad off,
cials. and 1t was agreed that all the
freight handlers should return to work
for their former wages. The question
OF overtime was not discussed.
The company says that there was no
difficulty with the men on the transfer
platforms. who are old employees. Many
Of the men at the Kirkham street sta
tion are new men. The switchmen will
live up to their agreement with the
company. and no trouble with them is
contemplated.

GEARY ROAD MUST
Be REMODELED.
Line Was Conceived in
Fraud and Born in
Iniquity,' Says Loss

II will say that the plan to recon
struct the Geary- street railroad as an
underground system was conceived in
fraud and born in iniquity. I do not
know whether the present Board of Su-
pervisors or a former board coun-
tenanced 1t, for / am not here to crit
icise the action. Conditions are not the
same as they were when we filed our
bio. The existing Geary-street road is
makeshift at best and cannot be re-
constructed as originally planned
The foregoing statement was made
by c. E. Loss of the c. E. Loss Con-
struction Company yesterday afternoon
before the street committee of the
Board of Supervisors during a heated
protest made by Loss against the con-
tinued deferring of the reconstruction
of the road by the Board of Super
visors. Later Loss modified the state
ment by saying that the words CON
ceived in fraud and born in iniquity"
meant to convey that the road under
the present plans for renovation would
be condemned by any board of engi-
neers.
Loss claims that the road as planned
will need an entirely new roadbed of
heavier rails; that the tracks will have
to be placed farther apart to permit
modern cars to pass, and that the pres
ent roadbed and rails cannot accommo-
date modern cars.
PLANS ARE IMPRACTICABLE.
The protest of Loss was brought
about by the statement of Supervisor
Coffey that the present Geary-street
railroad was In fine condition, the serv-
ice was excellent and that no improve
ment need be made.
The contractor for the new road was
~ hxr he
another Supervisor TO place Loss
check for $4,000, which was deposited
to guarantee the contract. in the city
treasury. Loss further denied that he
was attempting to withdraw from the
contract, asserting there was no con-
tract in existence. He says the former
Board of Supervisors merely awarded
him the work.
In support of his view regarding the
necessity for a change In the plans,
Loss said:
THE roadbed of the present system
has been badly shaken up by the earth
quake. 1 would like TO go ahead with
the contract, but the plans and specif-
cations adopted before the disaster are
now impracticable. Labor and material
have advanced in price and the condf-
tion of the road has changed. There
has been delay from one cause or an
other since April IS. and IL we cannot
go ahead with the work / would ask
that my company's certified check for
$4,000 be returned"
Asked as to the feasibility OF running
gasoline motors on the road. LOSS said
1t would be impracticable.
CITY ATTORNEY TO DECIDE.
The street committee finally decided
tu refer the matter to the City Atkorney
to determine IL the Loss company can
