CENTRAL DISTRICT
Congestion in Daytime Will Be Les.
sened If Clauses Are Enforced,
Promoters Say, as In
Other Cities

The city council yesterday passed the
traffic ordinance designed to reduce con-
gestion In the retail district.
This is the measure gotten up by the
traffic commission several months ago,
championed later by the municipal league
and other organizations which found that
other cities were doing work along similar
lines. A
and business zones for the ordinance,
the "congested district" lying between
First and Sixth and Hill and Main
streets. In this area no oil, hay or
very large wagons will be permitted to
use the street after 8 in the morning or
before Z in the evening. Hauling must
be done early in the morning or after dark
by such conveyances. Third street is ex-
cepted because of the tunnel.
Time for hitching is limited to thirty
minutes, trucks must not be backed up
against the curb. space must be allowed
between the running boards of cars and
the wagon wheels for passengers safety
and other clauses are Incorporated.
North and south teams will have the
right of way over east and west, speed
must be reduced to twelve miles an hour,
and many other sections are Incorporated
Hackmen succeeded in having the $5C
license fee omitted. but they must get
consent OF property owners and of the
police commissioners before they can
maintain licensed stands. There is also
rigid space limit between standing ve-
hicles for public hire.

MISSING PAPERS FIGURE
IN AGED COUPLES ESTATE
Property Said to Have Been Decided
by Merrill A. Wehr to His
Wife and Back Again
Involved

A contest to determine the rightfu1
heirs to the estate of Merrill A. Wehr
and that of his wife, Nancy Wehr. filed
the chairs in Judge James court yester-
day, most of those present being in
terested In the outcome of the case.
The case is filled with intricacies which
the court and attorneys are doing their
best to unravel, and judging from the
large number of witnesses and pecu-
liarlties in the contest it is probable some
days may elapse before a final decision
Is reached
Merrill A. wehr died November IA, 1905.
and six months later his wife, Nancy
Wehr, died Each had passed the three
score and ten mark and their property
was estimated to be worth $30,000
Almost ten years ago Wehr became in
volved in the failure of eastern banks in
which he was a stockholder, and to pro-
tect himself decided his property to his
wife, this being made matter of record.
After Wehr had satisfied his eastern
liabilities Mrs. Wehr conveyed the prop
erty back to him, it is claimed. but these
deeds were never recorded and have never
since been found. Wehr's heirs contend
that Mrs Wehr destroyed the deeds.
After Mrs. Wehr's death DR.. ]. M. Nc
Cullough of Los Angeles was appointed
administrator. and as such claimed all
the property to have been left by Mrs.
Wehr.
Wehr's heirs, learning of the fact that
she had conveyed the estate back to her
husband and having reason to believe he
had never delivered to her any personal
property, filed the petition in the superior
court, asking for the appointment of
William T. S. Hammond as administrator
of Wehrs estate.
The heirs on both eides are numerous.

Not futter disturbed the breasts OF
depositors in Los Angeles yesterday de-
spite the uneasiness felt by few VINO
had anticipated some difficulty when
the legal holidays came to an end.
There was no lack Of confidence In
any quarter and every bank connected
with the Clearing House association
reported notable gains in deposits.
''The days business has been most

currency was paid out, gold being
issued freely when sufficient reason
was forthcoming for the need of the

"lhe most valuable lesson derived

doubtless helped some northern banks.
but they made no difference here when

deposited all or part of the funds they
received.
| W. d. Longyear, cashier and secretary
of the Security Savings bank, said:
"The semi annual dividends are not due
until January Q. We anticipated the
payment in advance of the holidays for
the benefit of the shareholders.
To-day was not even normal

being drawn out, and the dividends
were paid mostly in scrip.
