VOTE FOR GOOD ROADS IS
MORE THAN FOUR TO ONE
Ry Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
PASADENA, July S0.-For the bonds,
2142; against the bonds, 506.
Long before o'clock this morning,
when the, polls opened, line of forty
carriages, with waving yellow pen
nants, formed at the headquarters of
the board of trade and was sent out
all over the city to bring the voters
to the polls.
Throughout the day an average of
three carriages was kept in each pre-
cinct. large number of automobiles
was also in service.
The board of trade committee, which
has been in general charge of the cam
paign here, made tour of all the
polling places several times through
the day and kept in constant telephon-
ic touch with many of the workers.
The total vote polled was consider
ably heavier than at the last primary
election, and the majority in favor
of the bonds very satisfactory. All the
campaigners here. however, had felt
confident that Pasadena would set a
good example in this respect.
No unpleasantness marked the cleo
ton, every one seeming to look upon
it as a gala day.

day.

ing from one to seven voters at time.
BY means of the flyers headquarters
was kept in constant touch with all of
the polling places at all hours, the tel
ephones being used to receive and send
messages.
The auto dealers, who have the good
roads idea firmly implanted in their
constitutions, have done remarkable
service for the good highways move
ment, and yesterday the committeeman
cheerfully gave acknowledgement of
this service.
No matter from what section of the
city the calls came, they were answered
at headquarters telephones in the
Chamber of Commerce building, and
was dispatched to get this or that
straggler or committeeman.
The earliest OF the owners of ma
chimes or chauffeurs reported at the
chamber of commerce at O'Clock,
though some of the executive othcers
of the campaign committee, led by F.
w. Blanchard, had their autos on
Broadway even before O'Clock.
AS soon as the machines reached
their designated stations their .operat-

DULL TIMES CAUSE
DORIS SUSPENSION
BROKER FEELS EFFECT OF
MONEY STRINGENCY
Local Stock Dealer Telegraphs from
Chicago That He viii Have No
Difficulty in Settling
Claims

Dull times, due to last winters finan-
cial stringency, are given by Fred
Dorr, stock broker, with offices in Los
Angeles and half a dozen other west
ern cities, as the cause of his tenn
porary suspension.
Dorr is in Chicago, but expects to
leave soon for Los Angeles, where
he will take steps to remove the at
tachment placed on his business by
T. w Berger, one of his customers.
In local circles the opinion is freely
expressed that Mr.. Dorr will be able
to meet all claims and that his bust
ness will suffer but slight Interrupt
ton.
Maurice Vaughn, local manager for
Dorr, said yesterday he had received
a telegram from his employer in which
Dorr said his embarrassment would
be only temporary. DORIS office was
open yesterday, but virtually no bust
ness was transacted.

LITTLE BUSINESS DONE
IN SAN FRANCISCO OFFICE
srocial to The Herald.

CE-Cldl 10 Inc E1eTdhA-
SAN FRANCISCO, July S0.-There
was little business transacted today
at the office of Fred Dorr & Co. AL
though it has been suspected the firm
was in some difficulty, no one believes
Dorr will not be able to meet all
claims.
1t was stated here today that none
of DORIS offices will be closed. 1t Is
denied here that Dorr owes anyone
in Los Angeles, or any other place,
large sums Of money.
r. G. Lathrop, manager of Dorr' s
local branch said today that he has
no information in regard to the re-
ported suspension other than that con-
tanned in a telegram to him from Mr.
Dorr in Chicago, which says:
"A combination of circumstances.
wrongfully looked upon, has injured
my credit. l am sorry but II parties
want money and will not take prom
Uses, they must give me time. l GER
tainly advise against any payments
or acceptance of funds. Send any
orders to me in Chicago"
Another telegram has been received
by Mr.. Lathrop signed Harris, Win
throp & Co., DORIS New York cor
respondents, which reads as follows:
LAS far as it has come to our knowl-
edge, Mr.. Dorr has open accounts with
only two firms, who are members of
the New York STOCK exchange. f1fSt,
with the Harris, Winthrop & Co, with
whom Mr. Dorr has both open stock
and grain accounts, and second, with
the ]. H. Wren & Co., with whom
Mr. Dorr has to our knowledge only
an open grain account. The moneys
owed us by Mr.. Dorr, against which
his membership in the New York stock
exchange is collateral, are his open
stock and grain accounts with us. At
tho present time those accounts are
sufficiently protected to pay our en-
tire claims without having recourse
to Mr.. DORIS stock exchange men,
bership"
Mr.. Lathrop stated it as his belief
that the suspension will be only tenn
porary.

operation.
Especial thanks are rendered to the
daily newspapers of this city, which,
without exception. devoted many col
umns of most valuable space to eX-
plotting the benefits of the bonds and
undoubtedly influenced the great body
of local voters in their favor. The skill,
variety and effectuality of the news

work in Los Angeles, and their meth

support has Influenced many a hun

LONG ISLAND RICH PEOPLE
LAY FOR FIREBUGS
Torch Piled to Many Magnificent
Homes, Including Those of Vander-

and Bourke Cochran
BY Associated Press.


NEW YORK, July $3.50 many
fires, clearly of an incendiary origin.
have occurred in the last two weeks in
what are known as the millionaire
colonies of Great Neck, Manhasset,
Port Washington and other towns in
the northwest district of Long Island,
that radical measures have been de-
termined upon and there is earnest
talk of the formation of a vigilance
committee to run down and inflict sum-
mary punishment.
Some of the elaborate and costly es-
tates in the section affected are those
of William K. Vanderbilt, jr., at Great
Neck; Clarence H. Mackay at Roslyn;
Burke Cochran and Howard Gould at
Port Washington, and Martin hail. the
beautiful residence of Mrs. Satterlee
White, who, until her marriage a few
days ago, was Mrs James E. Martin.
At least one fire has occurred in the
district every day in the last fortnight
and on several occasions the volun-
teers have been called out to subdue
as many as three in a day.

MARKETING OF BONDS
WILL BE EXPEDITED

Executive Committeeman Sidney A.
Butler says he believes the bonds will
sell rapidly and at good figure.
1.-THE first thing to be done probably
is to get legal opinion from the bond
experts in New York showing that ev-
piled with Bonds cannot sell without
such guarantee.
'In the meantime brokers and bond
buyers have done their figuring and
will be ready with bids when the ten
ders are invited by Los Angeles county.
1--WE expect to get to work at once,
SO that the roads will be started and
the money be put in circulation in and
near Los Angeles at once. That is
what the people want
