FIND NO cLEW TO
MISSING WOMAN
Worried Husband Fears Wife May
Have Gone to San Francisco
in a Fit of Temporary
Insanity

Members of the local police depart
ment passed all yesterday and last
night endeavoring to get some trace of
Mrs. Bessie Young, who disappeared
from her home, 1160 West Twenty
fourth street, Saturday. No track of
her has been found, and it is thought
she took a train for San Francisco.
Mrs. Young is said to be slightly de-
ranged, the disaster at San Francisco,
through which she passed. being re-
sponsible. This led her husband to be-
lieve that she might have harmed her
self.
She has frequently said she would
like TO return to San Francisco and see
her former home. and this has caused
the police to believe that she went
there.
The family has lived in Los Angeles
since the earthquake. but Mr.. Young
has been unable to obtain work more
than part of the time since coming here.
The couple have three small children
and they will be placed in home until
the mother is located.

NEW YORK. Dec. 31.-There will be
distributed during the first month of
the new year in New York city interest
and dividends aggregating over 5000
100000. This is the largest sum that
will ever have been paid out to stock
and bondholders in the history of Wall
street and marks the end of one of the
most prosperous years in the history of
the country. While the first half of
1906 was notable for increased distribu-
tions to corporate stockholders, through
increased or extra dividends resumption
of dividends or beginning, of dividends,
the second half of the year was even
more conspicuous in these respects.
Conservatism has been the rule in most
of the dividend increases. In the ma
jorty of cases the increases have been

COUNCIL GUSTS READ
OVER MAYORS VETO
GAS INSPECTOR MUST LOOK TO
COURTS FOR RELIEF
Mayor McAIeer Asks the Council to
Read Officials Report Before Taxi
ing Action, but His Plea Falls on
Deaf Ears

Mayor McAleer sent a supplemental
veto message to the council yesterday
asking that the councilmen before vot-
ing on the abolition of the gas inspect
or's Office read that officials report.
The latter made no change of feeling
on the part of the men who voted to
Oust Cabell Read recently and they
promptly passed the ordinance over the
mayors veto yesterday.
Read has legal counsel and a suit
will likely follow.
The fight on Read, his friends say,
came largely through the mistaken i'm
preston that the fees of the office were
to support it. Very few persons have
had their meters examined and the fee
income was very small
Read maintains that he has fully
earned his salary and that the moral
effect of having such an official is in
itself worth much to the municipality.
II am Informed that none of the
councilmen have even read Mr.. Read s
report" said the mayor afterwards. "If
they had they would know that a state
law holds him in his office. That Is
why / sent in another message asking
them to read up first. Stubbornness
will simply entail litigation"
