COLD RESULTS IN
FATAL MALAOY
John A. Hauerwaas, One of the Lead
ing German-Americans of Los An
9eIes, Dies from Effects
of an Abscess

John A. Hauerwaas, a member of the
firm of Adlof &c Hauerwaas, and a
prominent German-American resident
of Los Angeles. died at the California
hospital last night.
A cold contracted about eight weeks
ago induced an abcess from which he
did not recover.
Hauerwaas, although born in Ger
many, came to Los Angeles twenty
two years ago when he was a young
man of twenty-one. Although poor
when he came to this city, he bettered
his fortunes by wise investments in
real estate, till he became very
wealthy.
Among the German element he was
looked upon as a leader and his wide
utilization with the various fraternal
orders also helped widen his broad
circle of friends and acquaintances. He
was a member of the Masonic order,
the Odd Fellows, Foresters, Red Men,
Germania, Turner's, Herman Sons and
several other orders.
Mr.. Hauerwaas leaves wife and
four children, three of whom are girls.
Their home is at 27O3 Hoover street.

Woman Charged with Attempting
Pension Frauds Gives Strange
Reason for Believing She
Was Not Married

Attorneys for Mrs. Kate Gallagher,
the SaWtellle woman who is being tried
in the United States district court on
the charge of attempting to secure a
pension by fraud, contended yesterday
afternoon that the woman supposed she
was married to John Gallagher al
though she had tainted at the time the
ceremony was performed.
Mrs. Gallagher was placed on the
stand and testified that when she was
suing Gallagher for divorce he visited
her and informed her they had never
been married. She stated she then
dropped proceedings and later married
John RoXburge, veteran of the Civil
War, and after his death applied for a
pension.
She stated she first met Roxburge
through a matrimonial advertisement.
She is now so years Of age Neghbors

known her during the last six years.

FOR SAKE OF WIFE
JUDGE IS LEN|ENT
Man Who, While Intoxicated, At
tempted to Steal Bicycle Prom
ises to shun Saloons and Is
Given His Freedom

A wife's plea for mercy and the cry
of a tiny 2-year-old child for papa"
won freedom for Peter j. Mace in
Police Justice Austin's court yesterday,
and i'm addition joy has been brought to
the heart of Mrs Mace, for her hus-
band has agreed to remain away from
saloons and shun intoXicants in the
future.
Mace was arrested Saturday night
While intoxicated he was said to have
taken a bicycle which was standing
near the curb on Main and First streets
and endeaVored to ride on it. When
taken to the station he denied that he
had intended to steal the wheel, and
declared he did not know what he had
been doing.
Sunday his wife heard of his arrest,
and with her little child she has been a
constant visitor at the city Jail since.
Her devotion to her husband won the
hearts of the jailers and everything
possible was done COR her. Yesterday
when Mace was brought up for trial
she was in the court room and sought
out Justice Austin and asPed that he
be lenient with her husband. Drink,
she said, had been the one thing which
had stood between them and happiness,
prove lesson to her husband and that
he would not drink again.
Mace also promised rot to touch in
toxicants again, and on this promise a
suspended sentence oe sixty days was
given him and he was placed on proba-
ton. He was warned If he was again
arrested for visiting saloons or becom-
ing drunk ne would be severely dealt
with.

INCENDIARISM is SUSPECTED
Fire Is Found to Have Started from
Several Different Points in a
Small Frame House

A fire that had every indication of in
cendiary origin, according to Assistant
Fire Chief Mcdonald. broke out in
small one-story frame house at 754 Wall
street late last night, but it was ex-
tinguished by chemicals before it had
progressed far enough to do more than
$50 damage.
The fact that the blaze had started
from several different points about the
building established the opinion that
1t had been deliberately set ahre. The
police were notified of the suspected
arson, and officers were detailed to in
vestigate the affair, but no clues to the
identity Of the culprit were discovered
last night.
Wright & Calender are the rental
agents of the building.

WOULD WORK PRISONERS
IN SOME PARK STOCKADE
POLICE CAPTAIN SUGGESTS NEW
CHAIN GANG SCHEME
Result Would Be to Convert Griffith
Park Into Fairyand at Small Cost
to the nicipaIity-WouId Insure
More Work and Prove Economical

Police Captain Walter Auble thinks
it would be a good plan to have a rock
pile and a stockade in Griffith park as
a place to work idle city prisoners.
Some criticism has been made over
the present system of housing the chain
gang in the city jail with the conse-
Quent long ride to and from the place
of employment of the gang each day.
Keeping them in a stockade would
insure more work-and itself good
corrective-and prove economical for
the city.
Here is what Capt. Auble says:
Griffith park is naturally suited to
be turned into an Eden. A stockade
built in one of the canyons there would
accommodate one or two hundred pris-
oners easily and cheaply.
~ believe in giving the men plenty to
wear and eat, plenty of bed clothes and
water, and plenty of work.
They could be employed i'm the park,
building roads and walks, setting out
plants and trees, making gardens, cut
ting water bitches and cleaning up
underbrush, and in year the change
in the park would be wonderful.
"A rock pile inside of the stockade
would accommodate me really danger
Gus prisoners and a ball and chain
would hamper the remainder so that
they could be worked adVahtageously
and safely.
There is only one criticism of the
plan as far as have heard, and that is
that so many prisoners would get away.
Let 'em. That's what we want, mainly
is TO get rid Of them. / don't believe
that as many would get away under
the plan i propose as escape now, be-
cause there would not be the long rides
on the wagons morning and night"

FAVOR CALIFORNIA STONE
Directors of Chamber of Commerce
Want Specifications for Proposed
Federal BUILDING Changed

The question of placing California
stone in the gov >rnment building was
brought up at yesterdays meeting of
the board of directors of the chamber
of commerce and President Washburn
was requested to appoint a special COM
mittee to take up the subject with the
idea of having the specifications
changed so as to use California
material, as it was state there is
plenty of material in the state that
would answer the purpose.
L. C. Gates and Senator Bulla, who
were in attendance at the harbor meet
ing at San Diego, appeared before the
board and reported that the meeting
was very harmonious and the subject
matter discussed was one that should
receive the attention of all public
spirited Calf cnians.
The San Diego people were most
courteous and gave them all a good
time.

CHIEFS WAGON STRIKES MAN

j. II. Stiles, teamster who arrived
from San Francisco last night, was
run over by Fire Chief Lipp's wagon at
First and Main streets just as he
alighted from a Santa Fe depot car
aud the ribs on his left side were frac-
tured.
Stiles said that he was given no
warning of the approach of the wagon
which he alleges came around the cor
ner at a quick pace, After he was run
over the chiefs wagon is reported to
have continued for a couple of blocks,
when It returned and the driver in
quired if Stiles was hurt.
When Stiles replied that he was most
severely injured he was told to sit on
the curb and wait few moments.

OF late there has been a large demand
for carpenters on the outfall sewer and
Owens river work. Because of the
necessity for men only oral examina-
tions are held. the six months proba-
ton period being construed as permit
ting of the waving of written examina-

Two applicants for carpenter jobs,
residing at Inglewood, were permitted
yesterday to go to work on the outfall
sewer project without the examina-
ton at present and another applicant
who was only 10 years old got the
same privilege. The scarcity of skilled
labor is responsible for the concession.
So far sixty-four applications have
been formally filed for the position of
examiner. Others have been heard

From that time on, according to the

held his breath until his heart swelled
up like a tomato and then he couldn't
get the breath out again and 1t has re-

on that ground and upon the advice
