PULLED To PIECES
IN PULLEY SHAT 7
BOY KILLED WHILE 0ILING
MACHINERY
Clothes are Stripped of and Body
Beaten Against Ceiling at Each
volution-lnquest to Be
Held Today

While oiling a pulley high overhead
in the factory of the Southern Califor-
MIA Hardwood Manufacturing company
yesterday morning. Frank Graves, a
boy employed as an apprentice. became
entangled between the pulley wheel and
the leather belt, and was carried in
rapid revolutions around the shaft. His
clothes were stripped off him and at
each revolution of the whizzing pulley
his body was beaten against the cell
ing of the building and against the
shaft and machinery. The workmen of
the plant heard the boys cries and
FASTENED to turn off the power of the
machinery, but were unsuccessful in do
ing so until Graves body dropped fifteen
feet to the floor. The front of his skull
was crushed. and nearly his entire body
was mass of pulp and bruises.
The boy was taken to the receiving
hospital but died before the police sur
geons had a chance to operate upon
him. His body was Immediately re-
moved to Pierce Bros morgue, where
an inquest will be held upon it today.
Graves lived with his father and
mother at Tenth and Mateo street, and
besides his parents leaves four brothers.
He had worked at the Southern Cali

SANCHEZ FAMILY
IS ARRAIGNEO
HELD ON CHARGES OF GRAND
LARCENY
One Man and Three Women Said to
Have Secured More Than $4,000
Worth of Goods in
Week

The Sanchez family, accused of shop
lifting on an Unprecedented scale in
Los Angeles, their hauls amounting to
over $4,000 i'm one week, according to
the police, were examined on grand
larceny charges in Police Judge Roses
court yesterday morning
During the examination something of
the clever methods they are said to
have used in eluding dry goods clerks
developed. According to testimony, the
family usually stand in a group about
a silk counter and purchase a small
amount of silk. While the clerk was en-
gagged in wrapping the goods the woman
and girls would each secrete a bolt of
silk under spacious capes they wore.
1t was also shown that the Sanchez
family generally avoided paying for
any silk they had asked for by tender
ing Mexican moneyin payment. When
this was refused, they would say that
was the only money they had, and
would make their departure with the
stolen silk and no expenditure.
The man among the quartet of al
legged shoplifters apparently had little
to do in the hauls of the rest of the
family other than to direct their opera
tions. However, he calamity assumes
guilt for all that was done and seeks to
vindicate his wife and daughters.

KILLER SLATED FOR
PURCHASING AGENT
NEW OFFICE PROPOSED FOR OUT
FALL SEWER JOB
Board of Public Works Will Appoint
Man to Look After Expenditure of
Big Sum for Materials on Con-
tract

The outfall sewer project will have a
purchasing agent soon, and retiring
Councilman Hitler is slated for the
position.
Because of the immense amount of
supplies and material ~equired such an
office is needed, and the board of public
works members believe the incumbent
will save more than his salary for the
city by judicious buying. That he shall
do so will be his instructions.
Work on tn big project is now ad-
vancing fast and ...r co-lpressors,
pumping machinery and other modern
features will help expedite the opera
tions. City Engineer Homer Hamlin
is in personal charge of the work and
he wants to be relieved of the respon-
siblity of purchasing oods because of
the greater amount of technical and en-
gineering responsibility on his sheul-
ders.
Killers friends, who have conducted
the campaign for him, point to the fact
that he has been a resident here for
decades, has served in the lumber busi-
ness for a quarter of a century and is
experienced in dealing with business
men as his best recc lamentations, to
which might be added is experience as
a lawmaker.

audience that dared face the ele-

Der were those who had heard the
musician before and wished to listen to
his music once more before he left for
the east.
Early in the evening the rain outside
seemed to cast damper on the aud
ience which required several numbers
of the performers poetry music to
dispel.
AS in the former program, Schubert
and Chopin numbers were included on
the program in generous proportions
Four of Mendelssohn's Songs Without
Words" were enthusiastically received
as was Brahms rhapsodie. The re-
mainder of the program consisted of a
Faure romance, "En Automne," etude

FLUSHING WAGONS IN ACTION
Demonstrations Made in Front of City
Hall Despite the
Rain

The Street flushing machines driven
by compressed air which Los Angeles
may soon adopt were given trial yes
terday on Broadway in front of the
city hall, and later on cross streets.
Contractor Alexander showed what
the machines could do, despite the rain.
The patents are controlled in st.
Louis and most of the wagons are made
there. They consist of a steel tank on
wagon resembling a sprinkling
wagon in many respects, but the turn
ing of the wheels generates compressed
air, which is controlled by the driver
from his seat. The power is such that
surface and cutters are cleared by the
tremendous force of the water, which
does specially good work on asphalt
thoroughfares.
The outlets are at the side and the
water is projected under pressure and
with great force i'm a fan-shaped
stream. The dirt of the street is driven
ahead of the water into the cutters
and is easily scraped into heaps there.

The Church Federation Of Los An

noon and made plans for the season,
which have not yet been completed.
But it was decided that the general
movement would be to have the Bible

churches and Sunday schools, for which
special classes will be organized. Also

CALCUTTA BLACK
HOLE OUTCOME
Prisoners at City Jail Number 26o,
While Space Will Accommodate
But 125-Air Is
Foul

The urgent need of a new city Jail
is demonstrated by the fact that the
tanks and cells are now filled with
tramps and drunks to more than dou-
BILE their capacity. The Jail is con-
structed to accommodate about 1875
prisoners, but yesterday afternoon
there were over 260 prisoners held at
the Jail. More than half of these men
will have no beds on which to sleep at
night but will be compelled to sleep
on the damp concrete or steel floors.
Jailer j. w. McCauley said last
night:
while, of course, a Jail is not ex-
pected to be a place of luxury, yet it
is a place provided by taxpayers, and
when these same taxpayers are placed
in the jail for confinement they should
be entitled to at least humane treat
ment.
Even an animal shauld fare better
than we are able to treat prisoners
under the present conditions of the
city jail. And. it is impossible to main
tain a sanitary condition, for so many
men crowded in so small place poison
the air to a dangerous degree"
