OCEAN PARK, Sept. 4.-Because City
Trustee Phillips baked at the psychology
ical moment the facts concerning secret
understanding between the trustees. by
which they proposed to abandon a strip
of municipal property on which the Ocean
Park bath house encroaches, was aired at
last nights board meeting.
con the reading of an ordinance offered
by Trustee Jones, who is vice president
of the bath house company, condemning
the involved land Trustee Phillips started
something by moving that the ordinances
be tabled pending the presentation of a
similar ordinance from the Abbot Kinney
company asking that the city also aban-
don the property OH which the Venice
bath house intrudes. Jones jumped to
his feet and accused the opposing trustee
of having hedged on his promise to vote
for the ordinance under condition OF the
restraining suit against the Kinney COM
pany from completing it's structure being
withdrawn.
Phillips asserted that he had not been
fully. informed as to the intentions of his
colleagues, his understanding having been
that the bath houses were to be treated
alike in the matter of favors from the
city Jones again accused Phillips of
having broken his promise. and Trustee
Robinson came in with a cut at Jones to
the effect that he knew of other trustees
who had broken faith with the board.
Phillips moved that action on the ordi-
nance be postponed one month. The mo-
ton was seconded by Robinson and was
then amended by Jones, so as to call for
immediate and favorable decision. AS
amended the motion went through, Phil
lips alone voting in the negative. Fol-
lowing the board meeting small group of
ocean front property owners gathered on
the beach and denounced the action of
the trustees. Abbot Kinney said this
morning that he would present vacation
application to the trustees and that he
hoped to receive impartial treatment.

SANTA MONICA, Sept. 4.--Acquiesc-
ing to public sentiment, the city trus-
tees last night announced the aban-
donment of their irrigating scheme
for disposing of the city's sewerage, and
replaced it by plan favoring septic
tank at Eighth and Marine streets, the
effluent to be carried to the sea by means
of an outfalll at Colorado avenue.
1t was proposed that the city construct
pier 1000 feet in length, under which
the sewer mains would be run. Roy
Jones, president of the Bank of Santa
Monica, entered protest against the
plan Oh the ground that property inter-
ests in the vicinity of Colorado avenue
would suffer. He stated that if the pier
were to be built 1900 to 2U,0 feet into the
ocean and the outfall emptied there, there
would be no objection to the scheme.
The board appointed citizens COM
mittee consisting of j. ] Seymour. j. H.
Clark and Mr. Jones, to meet with the
trustees and the sewer committee at a
special meeting for a discussion of the
matter next Saturday evening.

| PASADENA Sept, 4.--What promises to
be one of the hardest contests for SUI
premacy ever waged on this coast is still
brewing In the attempt of the Barber
Asphalt company to get the contract for
paving Los Robes avenue in this city.
| After smoldering for many weeks the
contest was again set upon an active
footing yesterday by the signing by Mayor
Farley of a resolution of intention pro-
avenue with bithulitic pavement on a
bituminous base.
This is the second time it has been
decided by the council to proceed with
the putting down OF the bithulitic pave
ment, and it is anticipated 1t will require
more than heated mass meetings and
protests by dissatisfied residents of the
classic thoroughfare to cause the council
to further delay the paving work. How
ever, it is entirely possible, and some
think very probable that the active and
powerful aspha-- trust will find loop
hole in the council proceedings by which
they may secure an injunction restrain
ing the Warren company or the city
from carrying out the resolution of in
tention till the case has been fought out
in the courts between the two paving
companies.
With the Barber company it is con-
test to retain an undisputed monopoly
of the paving business on this coast which
has been virtually under their control for
a long time.
Warren Brothers, patentees of the bi-
thulitie paving process, are New Eng
land firm making their first serious effort
to get business on the southern coast.
Their success in getting this contract,
If the work should prove satisfactory,
would virtually be the breaking up of the
monopoly of the paving business in all
this region, unless they should combine
with the asphalt people.
Besides the present contract, which is
itself a big one worth a contest, there
are many hundreds of thousands of dol
lars warth of paving to be done each year
in the various towns of Southern Cali |
fornia, and to have a competitor in the
field is a serious concern to the asphalt
people.
With the disagreement among the Los
Robles avenue people themselves in re-
gard to several aspects of the paving |
proposition, added to the contest for the |
contract, a merry war is in prospect |
which will be very likely to leave the |
street in it's present condition for many |
months to come.
