Implicated in Other Jobs

In addition to the charge against them
the men working on the case have found
that the trio robbed two other Japanese
on the same night they are alleged to have
held up the Japanese on San Fernando
road and on the following Friday night
robbed another Japanese further out on
San Fernando road.
The Japanese working around Tropico
have been te.ife ed by the depredations of
the boy highwaymen, and when they dis
covered that the robbers were in Jail they
all came to town to see them. The Jap
anese colony had been so terrified by the
four robberies that they would not leave
their shacks after dark and gave up COM
ing to the city at night to play their
favorite game of pool. Now that the lads
are in Jail quiet reigns once more in the
Tropico berry patches and Patrolmen
Ingram and Beaumont are being lionized
by the little brown men.
All the Japanese who were robbed were
taken to the police station to see if they
could identify the boys. About fifty
prisoners of all ages were put into room
and the Japanese sent in. Without any
hesitat ton each of the Japanese picked out
the lads and said This him and This
him until all three were hauled out of
the crowd When the boys were picked
out in this unhesitating manner they con-
fessed.

.LEHNHAUSEN LOSES
MONTHS SALARY
POLICE LIEUTENANT REBUKED
BY COMMISSIONERS
Board Decides That Remarks Made in
Private to Friend Hardly Re-
quire Drastic Action, and
Reprimand Him

The police board yesterday handed
down its decision in the case of Lieut.
c. G. Lehnhausen, charged with con-
duct prejudicial to good discipline, which
resulted in Lehnhausens suspension be-
ing continued thirty days-in other words
his critical remarks concerning superior
officers made to acting sergeant but
now patrolman Frank Hartmeyer will
cost him a months pay.
The board took into consideration the
fact that the talk was between the men
while they were bosom friends, and was
merely the expression of an opinion in
private.
Hartmeyer and his wife, angered at
Hartmeyer's transfer to a Boyle Heights
beat as patrolman, fell out with Lehn-
hausen, it is claimed, because he did
not secure reinstatement for him as SER
geant, and the charges were the out
growth.
Capt. Flammer said after the session
that he believed the boards action was
sufficiently drastic TO preserve discipline
on the force.
1t had been stated at the trial and
previously that Lehnhausen's friends
raised the issue that if he had been a
Mason there would have been less
trouble for him. DIR. John R. Haynes
of the civil service commission testified
that when Hartmeyer called on him he
CHartmeyer) remarked that only Masons
could win sergeant's shields. Lieut.
Lehnhausen says he personally never
brought the Masonic order into the talk
and regrets that his friends did so, as
he says there was no occasion for 1t.

ASK RETRENCHMENT
IN CITY AFFAIRS

Members of the finance committee of the
city council have sounded a warning note
regarding the extravaganza or unnecessary
demands on the city treasury in the next
few months.
They have told department heads not
only must they hold back requests for
more help or funds but they must pre-
pare to have their forces cut down unless
moneys come into the city's strong box
literally.
1t is estimated that only from $4,000 to
$40, 900 a month will reach the treasurer's s
Golfers for July and August, and 1t costs
about 100000 a month to run Los Angeles
advised in all city departments.
Chairman A. j. Wallace said yesterday
that the finance committee was getting
together on the budget to learn just how
much the city has and how to spend it
Much of the years outflow of money was
due to the fact that a previous council
had made certain conditions which re-
quired expenditures that were unavoid-
able. The outfall sewer, in which a con-
tractor surrendered at an unexpected time
brought extra demands which had to be
met. AS far as he was concerned, Mr.
Wallace said he wanted to wind up the
year with a balance.
Our people have done a marvellous
thing in voting a S23,000000 bond ISSUE"
said Chairman Wallace, 'and 1t will not
be well to carry to them a list of new bond
issues wanted at once We have only
$500, 900 more than last year to spend and
$4,000 more people to take care of, and we
must husband our resources"

HILL HAS EYES
ON HUMBOLDT BAY
WILL BUILD TO CALIFORNIA
WATER LINE
Surveyors Are Operating in Northern
cak ktornia and Nevada, and Rails
VIII Be Laid from Boise
City West

That Railroad Magnate James ]. Hill
has not abandoned his plans for extend
ing the rails of his gigantic railway
system to the California water line is
again being evidenced in the movements
of several parties of surveyors which
are now operating in northern California
and western Nevada.
Within the past few weeks represen-
tatives of Hill lines have been in Los
Angeles and San Francisco in connec-
ton with the latest development in
Hills California terminal project.
The latter is a survey for line from
a point on Humboldt bay to Gazelle, a
distance of $50 miles, and from the lat
ter point it is contemplated to build a
line eastward to Winnemucca, New. The
survey of the route between Gazelle and
Winnemucca has been partially made
Two years ago the Hill people incor-
porated company for the purpose of
building a railroad from Boise City,
Idaho, to Winnemucca, New. and it is
said that the laying of rails over this
route will be hurried along as fast as
possible, and with these Hill would be
able to tap the timber sections of north
ern California and get valuable outlet

This message was received by Acting
Chief Flammer from WtlkeSbarre "a.
yesterday morning, and acting on the re-
quest he ordered that McNulty be held in
close confinement until the eastern officers
arrive to take him to Yatesville, where
his alleged crimes are said to have been
committed. The specific charge on which
McNulty will be taken east is that of
having killed Jack Sarttain twelve years
ago in Yatesvllle, Pa.
According to his own story, McNulty
killed Sarttain while he was sitting under
a tree with a girl friend of McNultys.
He says that he did not intend to kill
the man, but shot in the air, and the
bullet struck Sarttain in the back of the
head McNulty fled, and in spite of the
best efforts of the eastern detectives the
perpetrator of the deed could not be
found.

About two weeks ago Detective zeigler
observed McNulty acting strangely at the
corner of Second and Main streets. Nc
Nulty was raving about an American
Japanese war and making prophecies
about what would happen to the Japanese

engaged the man in conversation. Nc
Nulty asked for drink and Zeigler told
him to come up the street where have
big saloon of my own" He took the
bait and went to the police station with
Zeigler. When he saw that they were
going in he bolted, but several officers
took after him and he was recaptured.
At the sergeant's desk McNulty broke
down and suddenly began to tell of crimes
he had committed in Pennsylvania. The
detectives sent word east and began work
on his record here. They found a man
named Martin who corroborated Nc
Nultys tale.
No response was received from Pennsyl-
out an insanity complaint against Nc

MANSLAUGHTER
Deputy County Surveyor and Expert
Track Men Give Evidence In
Investigation of Fatal
Wreck

John Harris, motorman of the Eagle
Rock car which was derailed at Eagle
Rock and Central avenues June 9, killing
two passengers, was arraigned before
Justice Stephens yesterday for a preltm-
mary examination on the charge of in
voluntary manslaughter
Deputy County Surveyor Jones was the
first witness for the state, producing a
plat of the curve at the scene of the acci-
dent. The plat was offered in evidence
as exhibit A of the prosecution.
Deputy Jones testified that he had taken
careful measurements of the curve, which
he described as one of thirty degrees,
and also of the elevation of the outer rail
above the inner one, and found 1t to be
one inch.
E. L. Stevens, superintendent of mainte-
nance of cars and equipment for the Los
Angeles Street Railway company, was
next called. He stated that the car, No.
$685. was nearly new at the time of the
accident having been in service since
December IS. After the wreck he had had
the motors and brakes in good working
order, with the exception that some of
the brake rods and levers were bent, the
result of the overturning of the car.

curve, and found nothing wrong. On the
curve he saw traces of oil, believed to be

FINE FLOWERS OF LONG Ago.
English Florists Had Secret Of Crow
ing immense Carnations "

An Olive street florist says Nat
we pride ourselves nowadays on the
size of our carnations, but the for
lists Of 800 years ago grew carnations
three TO four inches across, as large
as any that we see, and thought
nothing of it.
"All through Spain, southern
France and Italy, the carnation is
the favorite flower and has been for
hundreds of years, but along the
Mediterranean there are few glass
houses, for in protected situations
and on southern slopes of hills even
delicate flowers grow outdoors all
winter long and bloom as freely at
Christmas as in July.
"The big carnations, however,
were not grown in Spain or Italy,
but in England, outdoors, ds-'ng
the summer time and before 0Nss
houses were known. They may have
grown just as large carnation flow
ers in Spain as in England at that
time, but in England there was
record made of the fact and also of
the size, while in Spain there was
not. Shakespeare mentions carna-
tions and gilly flowers, or July
flowers, together as blooming at the
