WARNER 10 FIGHT
SINGLE HANDED
CITY ATTORNEY WILL NOT HELP
PLAINTIFFS SIDE
Court Has Narrowed Legal Issues in
Water Litigation Against West
Side and Union Hollywood
Companies

Attorney Adam Dixon Warmers suit
against the city, growing out of what he
termed the water beard conspiracy. .
will proceed without the assistance Of
City Attorney Hewitt on the plaintiff S
side.
Some weeks ago Warner asked the city
council to join in the case as plaintiff, as
he claimed the municipality was being
defrauded and should aid him.
The council referred the question then
to the city's law department, which yes
terday returned a report stating its
preference to aid the defendants rather
than the plaintiffs.
Hewitt said:
This suit is now pending in the SUI
perior court, and by the ruling Of the
court the action has been dismissed by
the plaintiff as against all defendants
except the city of Los Angeles and the
board of water commissioners.
The city charter provides that the
board of water commissioners may re-
quest the services of the city attorney in
any action affecting the board, and the
board has requested him to appear for it
in this action, inasmuch as the matters
involved in said litigation affect the city
and the board of water commissioners
Il deem it best that the questions pre-
sented by said action be determined by the
court by judicial investigation and that
the city attorney appear both for the
board of water commissioners and the
city as parties defendant thereto"
After the council meeting Hewitt stated
that the issues in the case had narrowed
down to two principal ones-whether the
water served to Warner was pure and
whether he got enough of it in his pipes
The conspiracy and other charges must
be made in separate actions, the court
ruled.

cause of higher prices at Liverpool, wet
weather in Kansas and reports of black rust
In South Dakota. This buying sent prices
up more than one cent above the opening
figures Pit traders, however, continued to
sell freely. During the remainder of the
