BY Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 5,-With his

According to the story told to the

AS he started up the street he was
accosted by a couple of men who, ac-
cording to a woman who witnessed the
affair, asked Mcguire If he had ridden
on the car Upon his replying in the
affirmative he was set upon by the men
and beaten into unconsciousness. The
police have no clew as to his assall-
ants.

EDISON COMPANY
THREATENS SUIT
Old Account Of $4,000 for Pasadena's
Electric Current Unsettled-Arbi-
tration Is Declined
by City
Pasadena Agency,
n North Raymond Avenue,
Phones: Sunset 1907. Home 2124.

PASADENA, July with the ter
mination of the city lighting contract
with the Edison Electric company yes
terday, there comes up again the old
account of $4,000 charged against the
city by this company for furnishing
electric current. The city has refused
to pay more than so per cent OF this
amount, contending that 1t is exor-
bitant and that there was no legal con-
tract. Request has been renewed by
the Edison company to have an arol-
tration committee pass upon the ac-
count, but the city declines to enter
into arbitration.
Mayor Farley has proposed plan Tor
settlement of the disputed bills. 1t is
this: Let the claim of the electric com
pany, together with a showing of the
city and any city records desired, be
submitted to one of the superior court
Judges, as an individual, but not to the
court, and let his adjustment of the
account be accepted by both sides.
1t is argued that the disinterested
Judgment OF superior court ohcer,
accustomed tC Weighing evidence,
would be better than that of three ar
bitrators, two of whom would be par
tiSans TO begin with.
1t is not known whether this propo-
sition will be acceptable to either the
city council or the Edison company. II
IL is declined, a suit will probably be
instituted against the city TO enforce
payment of the account.

ARRESTED ON WARRANT
FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER

Lewis Hoffman was arrested at the
corner of East Ninth and Millaro
streets at IL o'clock last night on a
warrant charging him with attempt
ing to murder his wife and three chill
dren.
Thursday night Hoffman, who is
separated from his wife, went to he1
home at Avenue SO and Benner street
and, 1t is said, attempted to shoot the
whole family. When M. l.. Sprague
who lives close by, tried to restrain
him the frenzied man turned the wea-
pom upon him, but was prevented from
doing serious harm.
Yesterday Mrs. Hoffman went before
Justice Selph and swore to a COM
plant, which was given to Deputy
Constable Gillis. The latter went to
house on Benner street, where he
had been told that Hoffman was stay
ing, but did not find him.
On the way back to his office the
constable saw a man who answered
the description of Hoffman coming out
of a saloon, and Immediately placed
him under arrest. The prisoner al
first denied that his name was Hoff-
man, but by a clever ruse was made
to admit his identity.

SAVES DOG At
RISK OF LIFE
Motorman on Glendale Line Climbs
Out on High Bridge to Rescue
Canine from Under
His Car

Stopping his car in the middle OF
| High Bridge to pull dog from under
meath the wheels, Motorman Fred An
derson on the Glendale run of the In
terurban system, yesterday afternoon
performed a feat of heroism which, OBJ
servers say, should call for recognition
from the Humane society.
1t was on the 5:25 run from the sub
urban town that Anderson brought his
car to the big bridge at high rate OF
speed Suddenly he turned on the air,
and lust in time to escape running
down a party of small boys who were
crossing the Viaduct in the direction
from which the trolley was coming.
The youngsters scampered across the
stringers separating the tracks, but a
dog, which wau following them, could
not find footing on the narrow beams,
and sought refuge under the car.
To go ahead meant sure death to the
canine. so Anderson Immediately
crawled under the trucks and grabbed
the dog, which was large one, by the
neck. with the intention of putting 1t
on the other tracks.
While on a 12x12 beam the brave
motorman lost his balance and the pas
sengers who were watching him turned
away, expecting to hear the thud OF
his body as he struck the hard ground
fifty feet below.
But Anderson was equal to the oc-
casion, and after an effort recovered
his equilibrium, holding the dog safely
all the while. When those who wit
messed the feat complimented him on
his bravery, tie motorman's response
was: Those dirty little kids ought to
be pinched, so they couldn't get in our
way"
Not long ago Fred Volkhard, another
of the Interurban motormen, per-
formed a similar feat.

ing to his statement today that an in

OCEAN PARK, July 5.-Considerable
excitement was created in the vicinity
of the bath house shortly after 1 o'clock
today by the rescue from the surf in a
semi conscious condition of DR.. Baci'
gahipi, surgeon from the U. S. revenue
cutter Alert, now at Venice.
The doctor had called for help when
about fifty yards from the shore, and
assistance was speedily rendered him
by bathers who were near at hand.
Life Guard Gridley applied restoratives
to the physician, who was soon able to
leave the bath house unattended.
The only reason the doctor assigned
for his unusual experience was that
after he had swan to the point where
he was rescued he found himself too
weak to swim back.
