time, it would be impossible for me to
give you even a glimpse of what has
come to me from ruined young men and
broken hearted fathers and mothers.
1t means that no other agency can
reach and help these homeless and
many times hopeless young men as can
this many sided work, work for
young men by young men," Many of
these young men came from good
homes, where they have been under
loving mothers tender care. They came
to our city and for the first time met
with the temptations peculiar to city
life and fell before the whitening blasts
of vice and sin, and the wall of anxious
parents from all over our country comes
to us as did the cry of David of old TO
the messengers, "Is the young man
Absalom safe?"
And you and have laid upon us the
great responsibility of caring for these
young men, and the question that is to
be answered by you as director of this
association and by us as secretaries is
Shall these responsibilities be met ??
AS this work unfolds before me and as
l see the needs of young men, / wish
could multiply my life thousand
times, and my earnest prayer to God
is that he will so put upon our hearts
our great responsibility i'm this work
that we shall count any sacrifice we
can make in advancing the efficiency of
the Los Angeles Young Mems Christian
association, sacred privilege. With
this work before us, may we get such a
vision of the young man of Galilee that
we may give him our best service for
1907, and I'm so doing be the means of
bringing many young men to know him
as Savior and Lord. Respectfully sub
mitted ID. E. LUTHER.

WILL MAKE FIGHT
IN REBATE CASE
RAILROAD TOLD TO APPEAR
IN COURT
Head Of Legal Department Confident
That Fedora Authorities Cannot
Prove Charges of Unfair
Dealing

According to general report the
Santa Fe railroad intends to make the
strongest kind of a legal fight to pre-
vent conviction on the charge of Civ
ms rebates in connection with ship
ments by the Grand Canyon Lime
and Cement company.
Following the reporting of indict-
ments against the Santa Fe and the
officers of the lime and cement COM
pany, alleging the giving and receiv-
ing of rebates, subpoena service yes
terday was secured. commanding Of
hcials of the railroad corporation to
appear before United States District
Judge Welborn Monday.
Ihomas j. Norton. head of the legal
department of the Santa Fe. and his
assistants will appear for the rail-
road. Mr.. Norton is said to be con-
fldent that the federal authorities will
be unable to prove that illegal favors
were granted the lime and cement
company.
In explaining the probable cause of
the trouble, resulting in the indict-
ments against the Santa Fe and the
Grand Canyon Lime and Cement COM
pany. railroad man said yesterday:
Railroad Encourages Industry
This industry, as well as ma
jority of new industries along other
lines of railroads. has been encouraged
by the railroad which hauls its prod
uct. The lime company has no ac-
curate way of weighing it's shipments.
and when a forty-ton freight car was
to be loaded the company estimated
that forty tons of lime or cement had
been loaded on the car. When the
consignee received the car it would
be weighed, and generally it was dis
covered that the car did not contain
the amount noted by the shipper. The
difference in weight proba bly, would
represent from 90 cents to S150 on a
car. l presume the difference was
made up by the railroad to the con-
signee, but I do not believe the lime
and cement company ever benefited
by this arrangement, which appears
to most railroad men and shippers as
being just when the shipper has no
scale to weigh his product on before
consigning It,"
An interesting story in relation to
the government investigation is told.
1t is that when James r. Garfield of
the department OF commerce and labor
came to the coast to investigate the
Standard Oil company President Rip
ley of the Santa Fe ordered his subor-
dinates to give the government all the
aid possible, even to detailing clerks
to explain and display the books and
documents concerning shipments.
Railroad men say that the privileges
granted by President Ripley We're
taken advantage of by Mr.. Garfield
and his assistant, Mr.. Eddy, but that
their report was considered by Presi-
dent Ripley to be so unfair that he
refused the governments representa-
tives further access TO the company's
books without an order from the
court.

POINTS OUT STREET DEFECTS
o. T. johnson Tells Board of Public
Works Where Weak Points
Exist

o. T. Johnson, the Los Angeles capi-
telist, called at the board of public
works Office yesterday and discussed
with the members the faults of present
street making methods.
Mr.. Johnson pointed out that the
rains of this week had demonstrated
the weak points in the present system
of oiled streets and suggested that ad-
vantage should be taken of this infor-
nation.
one of the principal lessons to be
gathered, he said, was that streets
should be more rounded. 50 as to facili-
tate drainage that brick cutters in
stead of cobblestOncs should be in
stalled and that the surfacing with oil
should be more carefully done.
