New York Sept 4-On a reduced vol
uTe Of business to-day the stock market
again exhibited that harder undertone
that 1t has in the main shown throughout
the week, and the net gains made in the
prices of the principal stocks were
greater than those Of yesterday.
The market was still very narrow, very
professional, and there were some critics
who declared that the improvement that
was witnessed and had been witnessed
for the past fortnight was due only to

these rising to a new high record price of

All the city bonds to-day were bought
at higher prices. including the old issues
dealt in mostly over the counter of bond
houses. and the presumption is fair that
the advance in the Quotation for these
securities is the force to which credit
should be given for the strength and ac-
tivity Of investment issues in general in
the last few days.
The market for the railway bond issues
to-day was no less notable for its ad-
vancing tendency than it has been re-
Gently, although actual transactions were
on a smaller scale. Aside from the week

during the day was the publication or the
figures OF the gross and net earnings OF

All of which gives the thousands
Of people interested in this contest a
full realization that the appearance
Of a contestant with a few votes this
week doesn't prove how many more
she will have next.
Others have held their own in good
shape. Hattie Saffrey Of Honokaa
added long list Of votes and jumped
three places ahead. Hester Lemon
keeps well to the top and although
Watty Holt dropped back little she
has lots Of friends saving ballots for
her.
Right here the Bulletin wishes to
issue another warning note.
Keep close watch Of the date on
Your ballots. Don't hold them too
long. None has been thrown out
set, but the margin on some has been
pretty close. Get the votes in early
and then you'll be sure they are
counted.
Already queries have come in con.
corning the final date when ballots
will be issued. July 30th is the last
day on which vote Of any character
will be issued. July 3Oth. s P. M.
The count will take place August
10, the last votes being received at 4
o'clock on the afternoon of that day.
But all this is some way off. The
time to canvass for votes is right
now This is well understood by the
young women in the contest. Get.

time is what counts and the one

COMMITS SUICIDE
Patient at County Hospital PIunges
Small Blade Into Vitals Many
Times and Dies from
Wounds

Jean Maunier, formerly of Hollywood,
committed suicide at the county hos
pital yesterday at noon with a pocket
knife which he borrowed from a friend
to manicure his nails. He was 65 years
of age and has been a sufferer from
heart disease for several years. He
died thirty minutes after stabbing
himself.
Not much is known of Mounier He
came to the hospital March 18 from
Hollywood, suffering from nervous
breakdown. He was always quiet and
told little about himself.
Yesterday he borrowed a small knife
from one of the inmates of the hospital
to trim his nails. This he did very
carefully, and then without saying a
word he plunged the kife into his
stomach repeatedly, slashing himself in
every direction.
1t is thought brooding over the in
durable disease from which he suffered
caused him to take his life.

Mr. Appy,s First Concert

With the introduction of Louis Apply
to the Los Angeles musical cult In Ga
NUT club auditorium last night, the
local colony paid it's first tribute to a
cellist of considerably more than ordi-
nary ability. Mr.. Apply is the latest
accession to the Angel City musical
ranks and he intends to make this city
his home.
Members of the various musical or
ganizations turned out in full force to
give the welcoming hand to the strang-
er last night. The Gamut club and the
Treble Clef club, the members of which
were guests of honor, were especially
we'll represented. The affair was Mr..
Appy's first recital and reception to his
Los Angeles friends, and was a success.
The talented Dutch artist presented
a varied and interesting program. First
in length and in execution of bowling
was a Rubinstein Sonata Op. Is, in
three movements, allegro moderate,
allegreto and allegro motto.
The rest of the program consisted
for the most part of more popular num-
bers. Peppers Romance" Op. 5
(Chopin), his "Nocturne," Op. 9, No. 2,
and his "Tarantelle," and Servaise's
40, Cara Memorio," comprised the rest
the last named selection-which the
'cellist executed from memory-his
"bona memoria" failed him in several
places.
OF the Dutch 'cellist's performance
last night, none out praise can be said.
His lower tones are full and rich as
those of an organ and in the upper
register they are clear and sweet. A
keen artistic perception of the COM
poser's motif adds to his work a per-
sonal charm highly pleasing to his
r. AnnU 10 Iln6O1l 1lhtnrlW q
valuable acquisition to the local staff
of artists.
Scarcely behind the principal per-
former of the evening were his asso-
ciates, Miss Mary O'Donoughue, who
accompanied him, and Miss Charlotte
Voorsanger, a pianist of rare artistic
appreciation.

ROAD MUST PAY
FOR LOST BAGGAGE
COOK is AWARDED $51 FOR
MISSING GRIP
Contained Big Cook Book Which Was
Pride of His Heart, and He
Needed 1t In His
Business

After a desperate legal battle be-
tween a cook, John w. Leonhardt, as
plaintiff and the great Southern Pacific
company as defendant, the corporation
met an ignominious defeat yesterday
before Judge Smith, when the cook won
case for damages against the cor
poration, obtaining judgment for $51 in
pay for the loss of the following
articles:
One cook book of 800 pages, five
aprons and caps, one suit of clothes,
two suits of underwear, three butcher
and bread knives, one hair brush, one
comb, one leather grip, one bottle Of
whisky.
1t was the first time for many years
that the Southern Pacific had to make
good lost baggage and it hated to do 1t.
More than a year and a half ago, ac-
cording to the testimony, Leonhardt
obtained employment at Indio. There
he was to be cook for a camp and was
to receive good wages, and he packed
his earthly belongings in his grip and
checked it ahead for Indio. The cook
book was his pride and joy. 1t con-
tanned recipes for everything from hair
tonic to Hungarian goulash. 1t had
800 pages and many recipes per page,
and 1t would have proven a great help
on the desert. What If the railroad did
argue that IrlJoleS and tortlllaS were
the chief food of the desert, the book
contained other recipes and the cook
wanted his book.
His caps and aprons he needed to
hold his position, his suit and UNDER
wear he needed to cover himself even
il he was in Indio, the knives he used
as part of his trade the hair brush
and comb came in handy to hang up
in his cabin and the bottle of whisky
would prove beneficial for the purpose
of offsetting rattlesnake bites, and
there are many rattlesnakes near
Indio.
Thus Leonhardts grip left him with
out ceremony and without underwear,
and somewhere near the edge of the
horizon or on the Southern Pacific line
near Pasadena that grip is still wan
dering without anyone to claim 1t.
When 1t was learned that the grip
was gone Leonhardt began his novel
fight against the corporation. Cook
against corporation was not a very
even contest, but Leonhardt felt that
he had right on his side. That was a
year and half ago. Yesterday he
found he did have right on his side and
he obtained a decision which will re-
pay him for his losses.
His first suit was filed before Justice
Yopn~ since retired He fought the
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-22

case there, asking $50 damages, and
after legal battle against the corpor
alton attorneys he won his suit.
1t is a bad habit for the public to
demand pay for lost trunks and valises
and the railroad did not think that
Leonhardt should be encouraged in his
temerity, so appealed the case.
Yesterday 1t was fought before Judge
Smith. Five dollars was taken off the
judgment Of the lower court and the
corporation will have to pay $51 to
Leonhardt, and worst of all will have
to admit it's ignominious defeat.
