WAR TALK D1sCREDITED.

LONDON, Oct 3.-"Party politics
is the general Interpretation here OF
the discussion over the propriety of
sending the American battleship fleet
to the Pacific. The English and ali
the European papers print the speech
es of President Roosevelt and Secre-
tary of War Taft and reproduce COM
ments of the American papers which
are attacking the American papers
which are attacking the battleship
project
The Stock Exchange, where premo-
nitions Of war in any quarter OF the
globe are felt first, has not shown any
reflections of the war talk" in some
of the American papers. Japanese
securities are strong and Americans
are no worse than during recent
months. Several extracts from certain
American papers limiting that Presi-
dent Roosevelt desires to bring on a
war with Japan to make his re-elec-
ton logical have been received here.
but were received as partisan, poTiti-
cal charges. Diplomats generally be-
lieve that Japan wishes to avoid war.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-New Yorks
Chamber Of Commerce has been ap-
pealed to by the Toxic Chamber OF
Commerce to use its efforts to end the
anti-Japanese feeling on the Pacific
Coast. The letter was read at today's
meeting of the chamber But, mas
much as Secretary Taft is believed to
have dispelled the war cloud by his
speech in Toxic recently. the chamber
decided that it would take no action
1t sent a reply expressing confidence
that wholesale public sentiment will
assert itself in the localities where the
incidents complained Of occurred" The
Japanese letter, which was signed by
four other chambers of commerce be-
sides that in Toxic, complained that
trade relations would suffer if the agi-
tation in California were not stopped.
1t was dated June 20, but was received
during the chambers summer recess.

ID EOPLE who are well and strong Of
ten mean most kindly actions to
the invalid while proving most ago
nizing. This is often because they do
not know what it is to be III and
nervous.
Let them profit by the wisdom born
of experience and never, for one thing,
sit between the invalid and the light
from window, gas or lamp. To do so
places the visitors face in darkness
and irritates all the nerves.
Don't sit in a rocker and rock. 1t
makes many well people nauseated to
see this and the invalid is anguished.
Never insist upon beating up or
changing pillows. Pillows that look
uncomfortable are often placed exact
ly as wanted So ere making change
be certain that it is desired.
Never take flowers with vigorous
perfume into the room, but choose in
stead those with delicate fragrance.
Sit in such a position that the inva-
lid may see you and speak with you
readily. The strain of trying to see
and hear is fatlguing to any one, but
more especially to those whose vigor
is already depleted.
Never ask the patient whether you
shall prepare this or that delicacy for
her table; instead send It ready made
as a surprise to win its welcome by its
uneXpectedness as much as by intrin-
sic merit. The capricious palate of the
convalescent is more easily captured
by surprise than by premeditated ac-
ton.
Choose cheerful topics OF converse
ton, avoid the illness and other peo-
pies ills and all exciting themes,
whether pleasant or unpleasant.
Above all, do not sit on the bed. And
above this, do not stay overlong. Fiji
teen minutes is the maximum length
for the visit to one recovering from
illness.

THIRD RAIL TEST
SET FOR TODAY
BR0UGHT0N ACT CLAUSE is
ISSUE OF CONTENTION
Los AngeIes-Pacific Officials Have En-.
Joined Municipality from Inter-
fering with Raj Laying.
Railway News

The Los Angeles-Pacific officials in
junction suit against the city will be
heard this afternoon in department seven
of the superior court
The suit is to restrain the city from
interfering with the trolley company's
laying of rails on Hill street and be-
yond, the issue being the constitution
ality of the act recently passed by the
Legislature.
City Attorney Hewitt has detailed
Deputy Attorney Works to defend the
city. The contention is that one com
pany may use another'S rails but a
separate franchise must be applied for
first under which after five years the
city gets annual revenue of 2 per cent
of the gross receipts.
He comedies that temporary third
rail can be laid any time, but in this
case it is for permanent purposes.
Under a dual arrangement between
the Los Angeles-Pacific and the Los
Angeles -Interurban Railway companies
both use the same tracks, and as the
Los les-Interurban is not ready to
use broad-guage rails at present 1t will
necessitate the laying of three rails on
the route from Fourth and Hill streets
to Sixteenth and Burlington streets.
If the case should go against the city
there is nothing to prevent the organ
ization of one company within the
other and thus using each others tracks
in any section of the city. 1t would
deprive the city of all future percentage
profits under the Broughton act.

Bringing west the monster new shaft
for the power house of the Pacific
Power & Light company at Redondo
has proved an expensive job for the
railroads. Three fiat cars have already
collapsed under the great weight
The shaft, which was cast in Schenec-
tady, N. Y, weighs seventy tons, and is
now stalled in the middle west until
cars sufficiently strong can be brought
thither. Meanwhile installation mach
inery at Redondo is delayed.
The power generated there will be
used in operating the Redondo, Clifton
by-the-Sea and other systems. 1t is
controlled by the Huntington interests
and when the power is installed it will
be possible to reclaim thousands of
acres of land because of the facilities
for pumping by electricity from it's
plant. 1t is calculated that 10000
horse power can be generated in the
big new concrete structure after all the
machinery is in place.
