CRUEL TO CATTLE
U. S. District Attorney LawIer Files
Complaints Against Southern
Pacific, Santa. Fe and
Salt Lake

United States District Attorney
Lawler yesterday filed complaints in
the circuit court charging the South
ern Pacific, Santa Fe and Salt Lake
railroads with violations of the fed
eral statute providing that cattle
transported in cars which are not sup
piled with feeding and watering
troughs must be unloaded and permit
ted to rest at least five hours after
being confined twenty-eight
1t is alleged that in each instance
cited in the complaints cattle were
kept cooped up in such cars for thirty
five hours or longer without food or
drink. The fine establis, d by law in
such cases is $500 for each offense.
Last month the Southern Pacific was
convicted under this statute in Me-
vada and compelled to pay $500 fine.
In brief the complaints make the
following allegations:
That the Southern Pacific confined
1856 head of cattle for forty-two hours,
in transit from Tempe, Ariz., to Los
Angeles.
That the Salt Lake confined 142
head of cattle for forty-one hours and
thirty minutes, in transit from Logan.
Utah, to Los Angeles; second count,
142 head. thirty hours and twenty min

PETER PAN" NOT
Affected BY LAW
AS Play Comes During Vacation, Child
Labor Statute Cannot Be In-
voked by Humane
Officer

In.aL. probability the Humane society
will make no effort to prevent the ap-
pearance of Peter Pan at the Mason
opera house next month.
Humane officer Reynolds has been
looking into the matter, but Peter Pan"
will not reach Los Angeles until after
the schools have closed for their sum-
mer vacation and hence the child labor
law, under which action would be pos
sible were the play to be produced here
today, will not apply. This law was
designated to keep children in the
schools and it's provisions, during va
cation months, are much less rigorous
than those obtaining during months
when the schools are in session.
There is another law which can be
invoked in extreme cases, and which
prohibits children under 16 years of age
dancing or singing on public stage
or in a public place of amusement In
Peter Pan" the children neither sing
nor dance. They are, however, indis-
pensable to the action of the piece, and
consequently CONSERVATION was caused
by the Threat of the Humane officer to
prevent their appearance.
Yesterday the Theatrical Managers
association met to consider the mat
ter, together with other recent ac-
tions of the Humane officer, who has
been causing the theaters considerable

DISMISS CHARGES
AGAINST M'G|LL
BOARD CLERK RElNSTATED IN
OFFICE
Effect of trial Before Civil Service
Commission Believed to Be
Good in Restoring
Order

The essence of the motion adopted
yesterday by the civil service commls-
sion in dismissing the charges against
former Secretary William H. McGlli OF
the health board is as follows;
This commission dismisses the
charges against William HI. McGill ana
authorizes the secretary to address a
letter to the board OF health stalins
that on the evidence presented the COM
mission does not think that the charges
are fully sustained or that the deteno-
ant should be removed from office.
'This commission intends to sustain
the board of health in the regulation OF
it's officers and employees and should
any further Information be presented
against said McGill or other employees
showing failure to perform their du-
ties the offenders will be speedily and
rigidly dealt with; and If the evidence
is evenly balanced the opinion or the
commission will lean toward the board
of health
After calling Health Officer Luther M
flowers and former Health Board Sec

lent for years among doctors, under
takers and politicians that all was not
well inside the department.
Mayor Harper early in the year tried
to unearth the>real facts, and with the
aid of the board recently concluded
that the best way to restore efficiency
was to prefer charges, hold trial and
get at the bottom of the case.
The trial, as is admitted by those in
terested has failed to bring out all the
evidence freely talked about outside the
commission rooms, but it is believed the
effect has been good on the morale of
the department
The letter which the commission will
send to the board for it's next meeting
will serve to put all employees on their
good behavior hereafter or take the
consequences.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-06-12

retary William H. McGill into execu-
tive session yesterday afternon the civil
service commissioners voted to dismiss
the charges filed some weeks ago by
the board alleging McGill guilty of in
competency and INSTRUMENTATION.
The heart-to-heart talk between the
commission and the discordant ele-
ments of the board, in which Acting
Chairman Milton X. Young partici-
pated with Commissioners D. w. Edel-
man and D. H. LauberSheimer. In the
absence of DR.. John r. Haynes, the
chairman, it is believed will restore
harmony and efficiency that has been
hampered for years because of friction
between DR.. Powers and his subordin-
ates.
DR.. Powers has claimed all along that
he has been hampered in the discharge
of his duties because ring" under
him, maintained by politicians who bred
disloyalty in the department kept eff
cheney at a low ebb, INDUCED in office
politics and tattling and created con-
ditions which without backing he could
not overcome.
Blame Dr. Powers
McGill's friends in defending him, on
the other hand, assert that Dr. Powers
has himself to blame for these condi-
tions, as he was Invariably swamped by
details of work which he should have
left to subordinates. DR.. Powers
course, they said, caused him to over
look large administrative matters be-
cause of the multiplicity of details
with which he encumbered himself.
Moreover, it was claimed that undue
activity on the part of assistants
seemed to generate in the head of the
