IL to Visit Pekin.

After travelling through the empire
of the Mikado General Booth will go
on to Pekin. He plans to be back in
London by July to commence another
automobile campaign through the
British Isles. At the conclusion OF
this trip, in the month of October he
will again cross the Atlantic for a
two months trip In The United States.
The amazing energy and vitality
displayed by General Booth is some
thing remarkable. For years he has
led life that would tax the energies
of most men of half his age.
He is constantly on the go, now in
Norway, Sweden, or some other part
of Europe and soon on a hurried trip
to Australia, India or some other re-
mote land. And no matter where he
may be is seems he never for an ms
tant relaxes the firm grip on the af-
fairs of the Salvation Army as admin
estered from the headquarters in
London.
1t is said there is not sin, detail
in the world wide activities and rami-
fications of the organization with
which he is not personally acquainted

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Did the inter
hand Eward Henry Hartman lemon
when it fixed upon today as the date
for resuming it's Investigations into
the financial operations of the Harri-
man railroad system? But perhaps
the interstate commerce commission
did not know that today Is Mr. Harri-
mans birthday
1t was just SO years ago. on Febru-
airy 25, 1S4S, that the man who now
controls over $4,000 miles of railroad,
with a total capitalization of over$1,-
1000 900, first saw the light of day
In the rectory of a little church at
Hampstead. L. l., where has father

Enters Wall Street as Clerk.
Young Hartman entered Wall street
as a clerk in the sixties In 1870,
when 80 years of age, he was able to
buy a seat in the New York Stock Ex-
change. In 1883 he came actively in
to the railroad field.
In 1887 he became vice. president of
the Illinois Central railroad. The
year 1907 finds him IN control not only
of the Illinois Central, but of theUnion
Pacific, Southern Pacific, Baltimore &
| Ohio, Chicago & Alton, and Kansas
City Southern.
And now the interstate commerce
commission proposes to find out how
he did it. 1t has already conducted
hearings in Chicago and on the Pacific
coast relative to the traffic and OPP
Grating departments of the Hartman
roads.
Hearing Resumed Today.
Today the hearing was resumed in
this city with especial reference to the
financial methods of the Hartman
corporations.
That the greatest importance is at
tached to the present stage of the in
vestigation is evidenced by the fact
that Chairman Knapp has brought all
the members of the commission to
New York to take part in the investi-
CATION. Heretofore it has been deemed
sufflcient for only one or two Of the
| commissioners to conduct the hear
ingA.
Will Sit Continuously.
| It is expected that the commission
| will sit continuously here until the
| hearing is over. The examination OF
| Mr.. Hartman is to be the first fea-
ture on the program. When his testi-
monv has been obtained that of Jacob
H. Schiff D. ogden Mills, William
Rockefeller and other big financiers
will be sought.
Several of those whose testimony Is
desired are in Europe and 1t is though'
ouite likely that they will fnd IL con-
venient to remain abroad until the in
vestieation is concluded. Prominent
among the absentees are James sun
man Charles A. Peabody, president OF
the Mutual Life Insurance Company
and a director in both the Union Fa'
cific and the Illinois Central railroads
Other Magnates to Testify.
H. H. Rogers and Henry c. Fricl
probably will be called upon to tel
| what they know regarding the Harrl'
man system of financing.
President Winchell of the Rock Is
land President FELTON, of the ALTON
and a number of other railroad ex
ecutives are also slated to take tn
stand as witnesses.

LONDON, Feb. 25-To make a hur-
ried trip around the world, to make
public speeches almost every day and
night, and at the same time to keep
in personal touch with almost a world

too much for man r"ar so years OF

But this is the task mapped out by
General William A. Booth. the founder

GIRL BRIDE WITNESS
AGAINST HUSBAND
MAY SEND HIM TO
STATES PRISON
Viron D. Mitchell, Accused of Shooting
at Wife, Warned from Com
plainant, Her Brother,
in Court

Y The pretty 19-year-old wife of Viron d.
Mitchell took the stand in Judge Summer
fields court yesterday afternoon, and her
testimony may help to send her husband
to San Quentin.
Mitchell is charged with having shot at
his wife on the morning of August 10 and
with wounding his mother-in-law in the
arm. The shooting took place at 1746 New
Hampshire street. where Mrs. Mitchell
had been living with her mother and
brother since her separation from her
husband.
Attorney for the defense, William j.
Danford, put the witness through vigor-
Gus cross examination in an attempt to
prove conspiracy between herself and her
mother to get rid of Mitchell.
She was closely questioned about her
relations with a man of the name of
Estudillo.
At first Mrs. Mitchell seemed nervous
and frequently applied bottle of SMELL
ing salts to her nose, as If to prevent
fainting. But as the questioning pro-
gressed she became more animated and
forgot the smelling salts.
The complaining witness, Mrs. Mitchells s
brother sat in front of the judges stand
glaring at the defendant, who sat few
| feet from him. Several times the former
arose from his chair and approached to-
ward where the defendant was sitting
and as often was ordered back to his
seat by the judge.
Assistant District Attorney Pearson is
prosecuting the case and he continually
brought objections to the questions OF
Attorney Danford whenever these wer,
of a personal nature. There was con
siderable excitement on both sides ant
among the witnesses.
At one time the witness was withdrawn
from the room at the request of At
| torney Danford. Only the complaining
witness was allowed to remain.
The examination of witnesses will con
tinue today The case promises to b.
sensational and exciting.

cause Public Work viii

Squatting by Mexican families on GER
tain city lands and the nuisances created
thereby, a problem which the health de-
partment has been investigating will be
regulated by proposed street work.
Petition from l.. j. Bailey and others,
calling attention to the occupancy of these
city lands at the head of Cottage Home
street, and the report of the health officer,
L. M. Powers, thereon, were returned to
the city council yesterday.
The city engineer was directed by the
board of public works to present the
necessary ordinance for the construction
of such sewers as may be needed in this
locality, but he reported to the board that
the sanitary matters referred to will be
remedied shortly by the fact that the city
intends to improve the location by street
work, which will cause the buildings TO be
removed, thus wiping out all conditions.

PUT HOUSE NUMBER
IN EACH SIDEWALK
COUNCIL FAvoRS REFORM FOR
THE NEARsIGHTED
Los Angeles Homes Hide Their Num-
bers on Pillars, Porches, Tram
SONS and Behind Vines.
DoIgevilIe Protests

Dolgeville sends a suggestion to Los
Angeles that it adopt a uniform method
of numbering houses.
The council heard the plaint yesterday
and most of the members said the sug-
gestion was a good one They passed
it up to the city engineer for hnai
report.
Some thought the house numbers
should be sunk in the sidewalks, others
on the steps leading to the house. All
agreed that every house should be num-
bered
The only objection was that so many
houses have concrete and cement side
walks in place and 1t would be too late
to adopt the innovation in such cases.
George Edwards sent in the letter of
complaint. 1t was as follows:
During the five years l have lived In
this vicinity 1 have several times
been engaged In canvassing, soliciting,
ETC., and have experienced the great
est difficulty in finding the numbers
on the houses.
have taken the school census,
solicited for gas companies and for
private parties and wherever ! went
to take addresses L have to look long
for numbers of houses.
Numbers are sometimes found on
steps, sometimes on pillars, or
porches (and in that case often hid
den by vines) sometimes near door
or painted when house was first
painted and now much faded.
1 have thought it a good idea to
have house numbers stamped on side
walks in front of each home, and
parties looking for particular num-
bers would be saved the trouble of
walking up a long path and some
times ringing bells to inquire. Par
ticularly at night would this be a
good thing for persons, for by strik-
ing a match on the walk they could
read and know just where they are.

A plan is under foot to oust Dr. M. f.

said, is in better touch with the ma

Yesterday it was stated by authoritive
parties that canvass vote taken by the
supervisors would stand with reference to
this question as to l in opposition to
Price. Only Supervisor Alexander is de-
Tending the old physician.
Those who are opposing DR.. Price say
that his methods are antiquated and that
1t is for this reason alone that they desire
his removal. Those who favor the physi-
clan claim that he is the victim of a con-
spiracy to deprive him of his office.

Los Angeles herald., 1907-08-20

The question as to the proper in
depreciation of the ordinance is legal
one.
1t is the practice of this department
to refer legal questions to the city at
torney. 1t did so then.
Numerous conferences were held be-
tween the legal representatives of the
street railway companies and the city
attorney, w. B. Mathews.
As a result of that dispute the city
attorney recommended the method
row in force, of arriving at the num-
ber of cars to be charged with license.
The city clerk accordingly issued the
licenses in compliance with that rec
ommendation of the city attorney.
This department collected those
licenses. It accepted the city attor-
